NBT BANCORP ANNOUNCES QUARTERLY EARNINGS OF $11.9 MILLION;
DECLARES CASH DIVIDEND
NORWICH, NY (January 26, 2004) - NBT Bancorp Inc. (NBT) (NASDAQ: NBTB)
reported today that net income for the quarter ended December 31, 2003 was $11.9
million, or $0.36 per diluted share, up 6% from $11.2 million, or $0.34 per
diluted share for the same period a year ago. The increase in net income for the
quarter ended December 31, 2003 was primarily the result of a $1.6 million
increase in noninterest income that was partially offset by a $0.7 million
increase in noninterest expense. Annualized return on average assets and return
on average equity were 1.17% and 15.47%, respectively, for the quarter ended
December 31, 2003, compared with 1.21% and 15.53%, respectively, for the same
period in 2002.
Net income for the year ended December 31, 2003 was $47.1 million, or $1.43
per diluted share, up 6% compared with $45.0 million or $1.35 per diluted share
for the same period in 2002. The increase in net income for the year ended
December 31, 2003 was primarily the result of a $6.3 million increase in
noninterest income that was partially offset by a $2.4 million decrease in net
interest income and a $2.1 million increase in noninterest expense. Return on
average assets and return on average equity were 1.22% and 15.90%, respectively,
for the year ended December 31, 2003, compared with 1.23% and 16.13%,
respectively, for the same period in 2002.
NBT Chairman, President and CEO Daryl R. Forsythe stated, "The Company had
loan growth of 12%, core deposit growth of 16%, noninterest income growth of 20%
and improved asset quality in 2003. These factors aided the Company in
overcoming a period of declining net interest margin and a central New York and
northeastern Pennsylvania economy that has not yet regained significant
momentum. Our banking franchise has become the financial service provider of
Page 2 of 10
choice in most of the communities we serve due primarily to a combination of
financial services expertise and unparalleled customer service."
LOAN AND LEASE QUALITY AND PROVISION FOR LOAN AND LEASE LOSSES
Nonperforming loans at December 31, 2003 were $14.8 million or 0.56% of
total loans and leases compared with $26.4 million or 1.12% of total loans and
leases at December 31, 2002. The Company's allowance for loan and lease losses
was 1.62% of loans and leases at December 31, 2003 compared to 1.70% at December
31, 2002. The ratio of the allowance for loan and lease losses to nonperforming
loans was 287.62% at December 31, 2003 compared to 152.18% at December 31, 2002.
Net charge-offs to average loans and leases for the year ended December 31,
2003, were 0.27% down from 0.58% for the year ended December 31, 2002. Mr.
Forsythe commented, "Our conservative credit culture has served us well as
nonperforming loan levels, net charge-offs and the quality of our loan portfolio
improved markedly during the year."
For the quarter and year ended December 31, 2003, the provision for loan
and lease losses totaled $3.3 million and $9.1 million, respectively, compared
with the $2.5 million and $9.1 million for the same periods in 2002. The
increase in the provision for the quarter ended December 31, 2003 when compared
with the same period in the prior year was due primarily to strong loan growth
during the last two quarters of 2003. The provision for loan and lease losses
for the year ended December 31, 2003 remained relatively unchanged when compared
with the same period in 2002 as improvements in credit quality were offset by
significant loan growth during 2003.
NET INTEREST INCOME
Net interest income was up 2% to $37.3 million for the quarter ended
December 31, 2003, compared with $36.7 million for the same period a year ago.
The increase in net interest income was due primarily to a 9% increase in
average earning assets offset by a decline in the Company's net interest margin,
which was 4.07% for the quarter ended December 31, 2003, down from 4.35% for the
same period in 2002. The increase in average earning assets was due primarily to
strong loan growth, as average loans were up 10% for the quarter ended December
31, 2003 when compared with the same period in 2002. Net interest income for the
year ended December 31, 2003 decreased 2% to $144.4 million from $146.8 million
in the same period for 2002. The Company's net interest margin was 4.16% for the
year ended December 31, 2003 compared with 4.43% in 2002. The decline in net
interest margin during the year and quarter ended December 31, 2003 compared
with 2002 resulted primarily from earning assets repricing down at a faster rate
than interest-bearing liabilities.

NONINTEREST INCOME
Noninterest income for the quarter ended December 31, 2003 was $10.1
million, up $1.9 million or 22% from $8.3 million for the same period in 2002.
Broker/dealer and insurance revenue increased $0.6 million or 39% for the
quarter ended December 31, 2003 over the same period in 2002, driven primarily
by the Company's initiative to offer financial services products throughout the
Bank's branch network. This initiative was implemented at the end of 2002.
Income from bank owned life insurance (BOLI) increased $0.4 million for the
quarter ended December 31, 2003 over the same period in the prior year resulting
from the purchase of $30 million in BOLI in June 2003.
Noninterest income for the year ended December 31, 2003 was $37.8 million,
up $6.3 million or 20% from $31.5 million for the same period in 2002. Service
charges on deposit accounts for the year ended December 31, 2003 increased $2.0
million or 14% over the same period in 2002. The increase in service charges on
deposit accounts resulted primarily from higher revenue collected for overdraft
fees and continued growth in core deposits. Broker/dealer and insurance revenue
increased $1.1 million or 19%, due primarily to the previously mentioned
initiative related to the sale of financial services products throughout the
Bank's 111-branch network. Revenue from trust services increased $0.8 million or
25% for the year ended December 31, 2003 over the same period in 2002, due in
part to higher fees collected for estate management services as well as an
increase in assets under management resulting from improved stock market
conditions and an increase in the number of managed asset accounts. Income from
BOLI increased $0.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2003 over the same
period in the prior year resulting from the previously mentioned purchase of $30
million in BOLI in June 2003. Other income increased $1.0 million or 11%
primarily from increases in revenue from ATM fees and internet banking fees.
NONINTEREST EXPENSE
Noninterest expense for the quarter ended December 31, 2003 was $26.8
million, up $0.9 million or 4% from $25.9 million for the same period in 2002.
The increase in noninterest expense resulted primarily from increases in
salaries and benefits of $0.7 million and occupancy expenses of $0.4 million.
The increase in salaries and benefits was driven primarily by higher salaries
expense resulting from an increase in full-time-equivalent employees and merit
increases. The increase in occupancy expense resulted primarily from corporate
headquarter renovations.
Noninterest expense for the year ended December 31, 2003 was $104.5
million, up $2.0 million or 2% from $102.5 million for the same period in 2002.
The increase in noninterest expense was due primarily to increases in other
Page 4 of 10
operating expense, salaries and employee benefits and occupancy expense
partially offset by decreases in loan collection and OREO expenses and
professional fees and outside services. Other operating expense increased $1.7
million, primarily from a $0.8 million charge for the writedown of
non-marketable investment securities and increased insurance costs. Salaries and
employee benefits increased $1.3 million primarily from increases in
full-time-equivalent employees and merit increases as well as an increase in
commissions paid to the financial services sales force. Loan collection and OREO
expenses decreased $1.0 million from gains on the sale of OREO and a decrease in
nonperforming loans. Professional fees and outside services decreased $1.2
million primarily from a $0.4 million charge related to an adverse judgement
against the Company in 2002 as well as legal fees incurred during 2002 for the
recovery of deposit overdraft writeoffs.
BALANCE SHEET
Total assets were $4.0 billion at December 31, 2003 up $0.3 billion from
$3.7 billion at December 31, 2002. Loans and leases increased $0.3 billion or
12% from $2.4 billion at December 31, 2002 to $2.6 billion at December 31, 2003.
Loan growth was fueled primarily by consumer loans and residential real estate,
which experienced strong growth during the second half of 2003. Total deposits
were $3.0 billion at December 31, 2003, up $0.1 billion from $2.9 billion at
December 31, 2002. Core deposits, which include checking, savings and money
market accounts increased $0.3 billion or 16% from $1.6 billion at December 31,
2002 to $1.9 billion at December 31, 2003 offset by a $0.2 billion decrease in
time deposits during the same period. Stockholders' equity was $310.0 million
representing a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 6.76% at December 31, 2003 compared with
$292.4 million or a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 6.73% at December 31, 2002.
