SIMMONS FIRST ANNOUNCES 63% INCREASE IN EARNINGS
------------------------------------------------
Pine Bluff, Arkansas - Simmons First National Corporation today announced
record quarterly earnings of $5,769,000, or $0.80 diluted earnings per share for
the third quarter of 2002. These earnings reflect a 63% increase in net income
and diluted earnings per share over the third quarter 2001. Return on average
assets and return on average stockholders' equity for the three-month period
ended September 30, 2002, was 1.18% and 11.87%, compared to 0.71% and 7.75%,
respectively, for the same period in 2001.
"With quarterly earnings at a record level, we are obviously pleased with
third quarter 2002 results," said J. Thomas May, Chairman, President and Chief
Executive Officer. "The significant increase in earnings over the same quarter
last year is primarily attributable to a significant improvement in the
Company's net interest margin, improved asset quality and the elimination of the
amortization of goodwill required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board."
May also commented, "Despite a 1.3% reduction in our loan portfolio from
the third quarter of 2001, we were able to improve our net interest income 17.3%
through the repricing opportunities during the falling interest rate
environment. While our loans have increased slightly over the last two reporting
periods, it has primarily been the result of seasonality. The lack of an
increase in our loan portfolio over the same period last year can be attributed
to the continued uncertainties in the economy."
Earnings for the nine-months ended September 30, 2002, were $16,415,000, or
$2.28 diluted earnings per share. These earnings reflect a 30% increase in net
income and diluted earnings per share over the same nine-month period last year.
As of September 30, 2002, the allowance for loan losses as a percent of
total loans was 1.69%. Non-performing loans decreased $3.4 million from the same
period last year. Correspondingly, non-performing loans to total loans improved
to 0.97% from 1.22% the previous year. In addition, the allowance for loan
losses improved to 175% of non-performing loans compared to 135% last year.
Average year to date total assets for the nine-months ended September 30,
2002, were $1.965 billion, an increase of $28.8 million over the average year to
date total assets for the nine-months ended September 30, 2001. Stockholders'
equity at the end of the third quarter of 2002 was $193.7 million, a $12.5
million, or 6.9%, increase from September 30, 2001.
