  • Quarterly adjusted net income1 of $0.16 per share, reported net income of $0.14 per share
  • Full-year adjusted net income1 of $0.59 per share resulting in adjusted ROA1 of 1.05%
  • Solid asset quality metrics sustained and capital levels further enhanced
  • 2012 first quarter common stock cash dividend increased to $0.05 per share

BOYERTOWN, Pa.--()--National Penn Bancshares, Inc. (Nasdaq: NPBC) reported net income available to common shareholders of $20.7 million, or $0.14 per diluted common share, for the fourth quarter of 2011, compared to a net income available to common shareholders of $6.6 million, or $0.05 per diluted common share, for the fourth quarter of 2010. On an adjusted basis1, net income for the quarter totaled $23.2 million, or $0.16 per diluted common share, compared to $13.5 million, or $0.10 per diluted common share, for the fourth quarter of 2010. Fourth quarter 2011 adjusted net income¹ excludes an after-tax unrealized fair value adjustment on National Penn’s trust preferred securities (Nasdaq:NPBCO) of $1.0 million and after-tax reorganization expenses of $1.4 million. For the year ended December 31, 2011, diluted earnings per common share were $0.56, while adjusted earnings per common share1 were $0.59, compared to $0.10 and $0.30, respectively, for 2010.

“Enhanced profitability in 2011 supplemented an already strong capital base and further strengthened our financial position,” said Scott Fainor, president and CEO of National Penn. “I am proud of our team, which has remained focused on achieving our strategic goals and on sustaining improvement in asset quality metrics. The strength of our balance sheet is a competitive advantage that has been recognized by Forbes Magazine which recently ranked National Penn 15th of the 100 largest banks on its list of America’s Best Banks2.”

Asset quality in 2011 improved steadily and remained strong relative to peers with all key measures improving from 2010 levels. During 2011, classified loans declined by 23%, total non-performing assets declined by 16%, and the ratio of net loan charge-offs to average loans improved to 0.74% from 1.57%. These asset quality trends resulted in a provision for loan losses of $15.0 million for 2011, compared to $95.0 million for 2010. While the provision declined, the allowance for loan and lease losses to non-performing loans remained strong at 184% at December 31, 2011, compared to 179% at year-end 2010.

Actions taken to maintain the net interest margin in a prolonged low interest rate environment, including managed reductions in higher-cost deposits, improvements in deposit mix and balance sheet restructuring initiatives, resulted in a relatively stable net interest margin throughout 2011.

Net interest margin for the full year 2011 was 3.52%, compared to 3.45% in 2010 and was 3.49% in the fourth quarter of 2011, as compared to 3.46% in the previous quarter.

Despite the increased costs of regulatory compliance, National Penn’s operating expenses remained well-controlled throughout 2011. Operating expenses1 totaled $55.2 million in the fourth quarter and $221 million for the full year. Compared to 2010, expenses were relatively flat and resulted in an efficiency ratio of 59.03%1 for 2011.

Internal generation of capital and the benefit of the previously announced Warburg Pincus investment increased the tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio to 11.04% from 8.27% at period-end 2010. The total risk based capital ratio at December 31, 2011 was 18.38% compared to 17.38% at December 31, 2010.

The strength of these fundamentals provided the basis for an increase in the common stock cash dividend to $0.05 per share for the first quarter of 2012, payable on February 17, 2012 to shareholders of record on February 4, 2012.

Scott Fainor stated, “Given the accomplishments of 2011, National Penn is a clean, strong and efficient company positioned for growth. Three consecutive common stock dividend increases, combined with our strong fundamentals and financial performance, resulted in improved returns to our shareholders.”

1Statement Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

This release, including the attached Financial Highlights and financial data tables, contains supplemental financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with Accounting Principles Generally Accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). National Penn’s management uses these non-GAAP measures in its analysis of National Penn’s performance. These measures should not be considered a substitute for GAAP basis measures nor should they be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP. Management believes the presentation of the following non-GAAP financial measures, which exclude the impact of the specified items, provides useful supplemental information that is essential to a proper understanding of the financial results of National Penn.

  • Tangible common equity excludes goodwill and intangible assets and preferred equity. Banking and financial institution regulators also exclude goodwill and intangible assets from shareholders’ equity when assessing the capital adequacy of a financial institution. Tangible common equity provides a method to assess the company’s tangible capital trends.
  • Tangible book value expresses tangible common equity on a per-share basis. Tangible book value provides a method to assess the level of tangible net assets on a per-share basis.
  • Adjusted net income and return on assets exclude the effects of certain gains and losses, adjusted for taxes when applicable. Adjusted net income and returns provide methods to assess earnings performance by excluding items that management believes are not comparable among the periods presented.
  • Efficiency ratio expresses operating expenses as a percentage of fully-taxable equivalent net interest income plus non-interest income. Operating expenses exclude items from non-interest expense that management believes are not comparable among the periods presented. Non-interest income is adjusted to also exclude items that management believes are not comparable among the periods presented. Efficiency ratio is used as a method for management to assess its operating expense level and to compare to financial institutions of varying sizes.

Management believes the use of non-GAAP measures will help readers compare National Penn’s current results to those of prior periods as presented in the accompanying Financial Highlights and financial data tables.
