BB&T's third quarter earnings before nonrecurring charges increase 16.9%
WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. -- BB&T Corporation (NYSE:BBK) today reported third
quarter 1997 earnings of $103.9 million excluding charges primarily associated
with completing the acquisition of United Carolina Bancshares Corporation (UCB).
Recurring earnings for the three months ended Sept. 30, 1997, reflected a
15.3% increase over third quarter 1996 recurring earnings of $90.1 million.
Fully diluted recurring earnings per share were $.76 in the third quarter of
1997, a 16.9% increase over the $.65 per share earned in the corresponding
period of 1996. Recurring earnings for the third quarter of 1997 produced an
annualized return on average assets of 1.52% and a return on average equity of
19.58%, compared to prior year ratios of 1.44% and 18.20%, respectively.
The nonrecurring charges totaled $58.3 million before taxes, net of a gain
from the divestiture of 23 UCB and BB&T branch offices required by the Federal
Reserve Board. These charges included costs associated with the consolidation of
branch offices and bank operating functions, severance pay, early retirement
packages and other expenses necessary to accomplish the UCB merger.
For the nine months ended Sept. 30, 1997, net income exclusive of the
nonrecurring charges totaled $299.2 million, an increase of 14.2% over recurring
earnings for the nine-month period a year earlier. On a fully diluted per share
basis, earnings were $2.15 for the first three quarters of 1997, compared to
$1.88 in the prior year, an increase of 14.4%.
MORE
Including the nonrecurring charges, BB&T's net income for the third quarter
of 1997 totaled $61.3 million, or $.45 per fully diluted share, compared to
$68.3 million, or $.49 per share in 1996. For the first nine months of 1997, net
income was $256.5 million, or $1.84 on a fully diluted per share basis, compared
to $240.2 million, or $1.72 per share last year.
"We are very pleased with our third quarter core earnings performance and
our successful completion of the UCB merger," said Chairman and Chief Executive
Officer John A. Allison. "This merger provides BB&T with significant
opportunities to further improve our efficiency and to enhance our revenues
through the cross-sell of BB&T's array of products and services to former UCB
clients. While we absorbed substantial one-time costs in connection with
completing the merger during the third quarter, these expenses were in line with
our expectations. We anticipate future cost savings to be realized as a result
of this merger to add approximately $70 million to annual pretax earnings."
On May 6, BB&T announced plans to purchase Virginia First Financial
Corporation of Petersburg, Va. Virginia First operates 24 banking offices and 12
mortgage loan production centers in Virginia and Maryland. The acquisition,
which is expected to be completed during the fourth quarter of 1997, will
increase the total assets of BB&T's Virginia bank to approximately $2 billion.
On Aug. 7, BB&T announced the consummation of its acquisition of Refloat Inc. of
Mount Airy, N.C. and its principal subsidiary, Sheffield Financial Corp., a
finance company that specializes in loans to small commercial lawn care
businesses across the country. The transaction will provide BB&T with access to
the national credit market and an opportunity to significantly expand the
business and explore similar opportunities.
On Oct. 1, BB&T completed its acquisition of Craigie Incorporated of Richmond,
Va. Craigie specializes in securities origination, trading and distribution in
both public and private markets. "This acquisition allows BB&T to diversify into
the investment banking business," said Mr. Allison. "With Craigie's record of
superior underwriting and advisory services, as well as overall sales, trading
and operations, we can expand the high-quality services we offer to corporate
and municipal clients."
BB&T had $27.2 billion in assets and 486 banking offices in the Carolinas
and Virginia as of Sept. 30, 1997. All amounts included in this report reflect
the July 1, 1997, merger of UCB into BB&T Corporation in a transaction accounted
for as a pooling of interests.
BB&T's common stock is traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the
trading symbol BBK. The closing price of BB&T's common stock on Oct. 9 was
$56.75 per share. For additional information about BB&T's financial performance,
