Prior periods are restated for the Evergreen Bancorp merger that closed
on December 31, 1998. Making the announcement was William H. Chadwick,
president and chief executive officer.
"The strong operating performance in 1999, led by our community banks
and Stratevest, was our best year ever. This gives us considerable comfort as
we soon join forces with Peoples Heritage Financial Group, Inc.," said
Chadwick. "It is very clear that our customers and employees appreciate our
efforts and are remaining loyal. The signs are all positive that the new
company will fulfill our expectations," he said.
Highlights for the year 1999
- ----------------------------
Net interest income was $178.0 million for the year ended December 31,
1999, compared to $164.0 million for the year 1998 an increase of $13.9
million or 8.5%. The net interest margin was 4.41% and 4.34% for the years
ended 1999 and 1998, respectively, reflecting the higher interest rate
environment throughout most of 1999. The provision for loan losses in 1999
was $9.5 million, $130 thousand, or 1.4% higher than 1998, as a result of
increased loan balances and the changing mix of the loan portfolio. As of
December 31, 1999, non-performing assets dropped to .32% of total assets
compared to .55% of total assets at the end of 1998. Loans charged off, net
of recoveries equaled .24% and .21% of average loans in 1999 and 1998,
respectively.
Non-interest income for the year ended December 31, 1999, was $55.1
million, compared to $41.5 million for 1998, an increase of $13.6 million or
32.9%. Showing continued improvement in core areas of business were
investment management income up $6.6 million or 51.5%, service charges on
deposit accounts up $1.4 million or 12.2%, and ATM and card services income up
$1.3 million or 28.5%. Additionally, a gain of $2.6 million was recognized in
the first quarter of 1999 when the Evergreen Bancorp pension plan was merged
into the Banknorth plan. Offsetting the increases, mortgage banking income
was down $1.4 million or 25.7%, reflecting the higher rate environment, and
resultant drop in the level of refinancing in the last half of 1999.
Total non-interest expenses, $145.5 million for 1999, were down $7.2
million, or 4.7%, from the level experienced in 1998. Without the merger and
acquisition expenses in either year, or the payment of management fees to our
defined benefit pension plan, total non-interest expenses in 1999 were $143.3
million versus $130.8 million in 1998, an increase of $12.5 million or 9.6%.
This increase was primarily due to the increased operating costs related to
the Berkshires operations, acquired from BankBoston, N.A. in November 1998.
In the fourth quarter of 1999, the Company recorded a $937 thousand
expense for the payment of management fees, plus interest, to our defined
benefit pension plan. These management fees had been paid by the plan in
prior years. Management, as well as legal counsel, believes that these fees
were legal, proper and reasonable for necessary fund management services
provided. The Department of Labor, during its review, contested these fees.
Rather than incur additional legal fees to argue the point, a payment of the
fees has been made. The plan is over funded and the effect of the payment
will be to reduce future pension expenses.
Highlights for the fourth quarter of 1999
- -----------------------------------------
Net interest income for the fourth quarter of 1999 was $45.5 million, up
$2.9 million, or 6.9% from the fourth quarter of 1998. The net interest
margin in the fourth quarter of 1999 was 4.40%, up from the 4.31% in the
fourth quarter of 1998, reflecting the higher interest rate environment during
the fourth quarter of 1999. The provision for loan losses in the fourth
quarter of 1999 was $2.6 million, $265 thousand or 11.3% higher than the
fourth quarter of 1998, reflecting the $208 million growth in average loan
balances, as well as a changing mix of loan types.
Non-interest income in the three months ended December 31, 1999 was
$12.8 million compared to $11.6 million, up $1.1 million, or 9.7%, from the
fourth quarter of 1998.
For the three months ended December 31, 1999, non-interest expenses were
$37.4 million compared to $56.5 million in the fourth quarter of 1998. The
fourth quarter of 1999 included the aforementioned payment of management fees
to our defined benefit plan. The fourth quarter of 1998 included the
aforementioned M & A expenses. Without those "one-time" events, total non-
interest expenses in the fourth quarter were $36.5 million and $34.6 million
for 1999 and 1998, respectively, an increase of $1.9 million, or 5.5%. The
effect of the acquisition of the BankBoston, N.A. Berkshires operation on the
fourth quarter comparison is similar to that previously explained for the year
as a whole.
Balance Sheet Growth
- --------------------
Total assets at December 31, 1999, were $4.6 billion, up $185.9 million,
or 4.2%, from the $4.4 billion at December 31, 1998. Total loans at December
31, 1999, at $3.0 billion, were up $172.9 million or 6.1%, from December 31,
1998. Total deposits at year end 1999, were $3.6 billion, down $43.8 million
or 1.2%, from year end 1998. Typically, total deposits reach their peak at
year end. However, with the Y2K scare highlighted in the media, some
customers may have decided to have extra cash available through the transition
to 2000. Average total assets for 1999 were $4.4 billion, an increase of
$359.6 million or 8.9% over the average for 1998. Average total deposits for
1999 were $3.6 billion, up $382.5 million, or 11.9%. The Company acquired
$290.1 million of deposits in Berkshire County, Massachusetts from BankBoston,
N.A. That transaction, accounted for as a purchase, was closed in the fourth
quarter of 1998.
On June 2, 1999, it was announced that Banknorth had reached a
definitive agreement to be acquired by Peoples Heritage Financial Group, Inc.
[NASDAQ-PHBK] in a transaction valued at $780.7 million, based on the stock
price at that date. Under the terms of the definitive agreement, shareholders
of Banknorth will receive 1.825 shares of Peoples Heritage common stock for
each whole share of Banknorth common stock plus cash in lieu of any fractional
interest. The exchange will be tax free and the transaction will be accounted
for as a pooling of interests. The agreement is subject to the approval of
the shareholders of both companies and requisite regulatory approvals. It is
expected that the transaction will be closed in 2000.
Banknorth Group, Inc. serves the financial needs of customers 24 hours a
day, seven days a week through its automated telephone banking system and
network of over 150 ATMs. During business hours the eight community banks
with 100 offices located in New York, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and

combine to help the customer answer the question - "Where do you see
yourself?" Banknorth can be reached on the Internet at
