NBT BANCORP ANNOUNCES FIRST QUARTER RESULTS AND STOCK BUYBACK; DECLARES CASH
DIVIDEND
NORWICH, NY (April 28, 2003) - NBT Bancorp Inc. (NBT) (NASDAQ: NBTB) today
reported net income for the three months ended March 31, 2003 of $11.6 million,
up $0.5 million from net income of $11.1 million reported for the same period in
2002. Net income per diluted share for the three months ended March 31, 2003 was
$0.35, up $0.02 or 6% from the $0.33 per diluted share earned in the same period
in 2002. Return on average assets and return on average equity were 1.27% and
16.05%, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2003, compared with
1.25% and 16.62%, respectively, for the same period in 2002.
The results for the three months ended March 31, 2003 were driven primarily
by strong growth in total noninterest income, which increased 18% or $1.3
million for the three months ended March 31, 2003 compared to the same period in
2002. Additionally, credit quality continued to improve during the three months
ended March 31, 2003. Total nonperforming loans decreased to $18.4 million at
March 31, 2003, down from $39.8 million at March 31, 2002 and $26.4 million at
December 31, 2002.
In commenting on the results, NBT Chairman, President and CEO Daryl R.
Forsythe stated, "We are pleased with the solid earnings increase the Company
experienced in the first quarter. The Company produced these results despite
continued downward pressure on net interest margins resulting from the
historically low interest rate environment. Significant growth in noninterest
income generated by our ongoing efforts to maximize our delivery of high quality
service in our market areas has helped us to mitigate margin compression.
Additionally, the progress made in reducing the level of nonperforming loans in
this uncertain economic environment is comforting. Our disciplined, conservative
process for
Page 2 of 10
monitoring loan performance has served us well and protects the value of the
Company to our stockholders."
LOAN AND LEASE QUALITY AND PROVISION FOR LOAN AND LEASE LOSSES
At March 31, 2003, the key indicators of credit quality improved
significantly from December 31, 2002 and March 31, 2002. Nonperforming loans
totaled $18.4 million at March 31, 2003, and represented 0.78% of total loans
and leases, down from $26.4 million and 1.12% at December 31, 2002 and $39.8
million and 1.72% at March 31, 2002. Annualized net charge-offs to average loans
for the three months ended March 31, 2003, were 0.17%, down from the 0.25%
annualized ratio for the three months ended March 31, 2002, and down
significantly from the year-to-date December 31, 2002 rate of 0.58%. The
allowance for loan and lease losses as a percentage of total loans and leases
was 1.73% at March 31, 2003 compared to 1.70% at December 31, 2002 and 1.95% at
March 31, 2002. The ratio of the allowance for loan and lease losses to
nonperforming loans was 223.00% at March 31, 2003, compared to 152.18% at
December 31, 2002 and 113.85% at March 31, 2002.
For the three months ended March 31, 2003, the provision for loan and lease
losses totaled $1.9 million, down slightly from the $2.0 million provided in the
same period in 2002. The provision for loan and lease losses represents the
charge against current earnings that is determined by Management, through a
disciplined credit review process, as the amount needed to maintain an allowance
that is sufficient to absorb loan and lease losses inherent in the Company's
current loan and lease portfolio.
NET INTEREST INCOME AND NET INTEREST MARGIN
Net interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2003, decreased 1%
to $36.0 million from $36.3 million in the same period for 2002. The Company's
net interest margin was 4.38% for the three months ended March 31, 2003,
compared to 4.54% for the same period a year ago but actually increased from
4.35% for the three months ended December 31, 2002. The compression in net
interest margin in the first quarter compared to last year resulted from earning
assets repricing down at a faster rate than interest-bearing liabilities. This
resulted primarily from accelerating pre-payments from mortgage-related loans
and securities, which in turn were reinvested at lower rates. For the remainder
of 2003, the Company expects its net interest margin to continue to compress
from first quarter 2003 levels if the interest rate environment remains at
current levels or lower. Mr. Forsythe commented "To mitigate margin compression,
the Company is focused on efforts to further reduce deposit costs, increase loan
growth at levels above previous quarters which should increase net interest
income, and have a continued focus on growing non-interest sources of income."

NONINTEREST INCOME
Noninterest income for the three months ended March 31, 2003 totaled $8.7
million, up $1.3 million or 18%, from the $7.4 million reported in the same
period of 2002. Net securities transactions resulted in a slight gain for the
three months ended March 31, 2003 and a $0.5 million loss for the same period in
2002. Service charges on deposit accounts totaled $3.6 million for the three
months ended March 31, 2003, a $0.6 million, or 18% increase over the $3.1
million reported in the same period in 2002. The increase in service charges on
deposit accounts was driven by the combination of continued growth in core
deposit products as well as several pricing adjustments implemented during 2002.
Other income increased $0.5 million to $2.8 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2003 from $2.3 million for the same period a year ago. The increase in
other income was driven primarily by strong growth in consumer banking fees as
well as strong growth in ATM fees.
NONINTEREST EXPENSE
Total noninterest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2003
increased $0.7 million when compared to the same period in 2002. Salaries and
employee benefits increased $0.3 million, due primarily to higher incentive
compensation costs. Other expense increased $0.7 million due primarily to a
write-down related to a nonmarketable equity security in 2003. Offsetting these
increases was a decrease in loan collection expenses and other real estate owned
("OREO") transactions of $0.6 million, due primarily to gains from the sale of
OREO.
BALANCE SHEET
Total assets were $3.8 billion at March 31, 2003, up $0.2 billion from the
$3.6 billion at March 31, 2002. Loans and leases were $2.4 billion at March 31,
2003, up 2% from the $2.3 billion at March 31, 2002. The modest loan growth
experienced over 2002 reflects the effects of a stagnant economy as well as the
Company's continued focus on improving the overall credit quality of the loan
and lease portfolio.
The Company's reductions in time deposits from $1.4 billion at March 31,
2002 to $1.3 billion at March 31, 2003, was offset by a $0.2 billion or 12%
increase in core deposits. This resulted in total deposits increasing $0.1
billion from $2.9 billion at March 31, 2002 to $3.0 billion at March 31, 2003.
Stockholders' equity was $291.6 million, representing a Tier 1 leverage ratio of
6.71%, at March 31, 2003, compared to $268.4 million or a Tier 1 leverage ratio
of 6.70%, at March 31, 2002.

STOCK BUY BACK
NBT announced today that it intends to repurchase up to an additional one
million shares (approximately 3%) of its outstanding common stock from time to
time over the next 12 months in open market and privately negotiated
transactions. Under the program no shares will knowingly be repurchased from
officers and directors of NBT or from persons who hold in excess of five percent
of its outstanding shares of common stock. Mr. Forsythe commented "The Board of
Directors believes the repurchase program is in the best interest of the Company
and its stockholders in view of the current price level of the Company's common
stock compared to alternate uses of these monies given the current interest rate
environment."
Currently, there are 193,554 shares remaining under a previous
authorization that will be repurchased prior to the commencement of the new
program. The Company repurchased a total of 330,813 shares in the three months
ended March 31, 2003, at an average price of $17.49 per share. Total cash paid
for these repurchases was $5.8 million. Total shares outstanding at March 31,
2003 were 32.4 million shares, compared to 33.2 million shares at March 31,
2002.
DIVIDEND DECLARED
The NBT Board of Directors declared a second quarter 2003 cash dividend of
$0.17 per share at a meeting held today. The dividend will be paid on June 15,
2003, to shareholders of record as of June 1, 2003.
