BB&T reports 19.8% increase in 2nd quarter earnings
WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. -- BB&T Corporation (NYSE:BBK) reported today that
earnings for the second quarter of 1998 totaled $122.0 million compared to
second quarter 1997 earnings of $101.9 million, an increase of 19.8%.
On a diluted per share basis, BB&T earned $.85 for the three months ended
June 30, 1998, an increase of 19.7% from the $.71 earned during the second
quarter of 1997. BB&T's current quarter results produced a return on average
assets of 1.56% and a return on average equity of 20.23%, compared to prior year
ratios of 1.44% and 17.92%, respectively.
BB&T's "cash basis" results (which exclude the effect that intangible
assets and related amortization expense have on net income, total assets and
shareholders' equity) for the three months ended June 30, 1998, improved
significantly compared to the second quarter of 1997. Cash basis net income
totaled $127.3 million, or $.89 per diluted share, an increase of 21.3% and
21.9%, respectively, over prior year amounts. The cash basis performance
generated a return on average tangible assets of 1.63% and a return on average
tangible equity of 23.29%.
For the six months ended June 30, 1998, BB&T's net income was $241.8
million, or $1.67 per diluted share, before nonrecurring charges totaling $6.0
million after tax associated with completing the acquisition of Life Bancorp,
Inc. of Norfolk, Virginia. These earnings represent an increase of 19.7% and
19.3%, respectively, over the $201.9 million, or $1.40 per diluted share, earned
in the first six months of 1997. Recurring earnings for the first half of 1998
produced a return on average assets of 1.57% and a return on average equity of
20.00%, compared to prior year ratios of 1.47% and 17.95%, respectively. BB&T
continues to rank in the top 10% of bank holding companies with a cash basis
efficiency ratio for the first six months of 1998 of 50.2%.

"It is a pleasure to report record second quarter earnings," said Chairman
and Chief Executive Officer John A. Allison. "Our earnings are benefiting from
continued strong performance in noninterest income, which increased 33.8%
compared to the second quarter of 1997, increased net interest income, driven by
a 12.2% increase in average loans, and a lower loan loss provision made possible
by improved overall asset quality."
On June 23, BB&T's Board of Directors announced a 2-for-1 stock split
effective August 3 to shareholders of record on July 10. "BB&T Corporation's
common stock has been an outstanding investment for our shareholders," said Mr.
Allison. "We believe the stock split will share the benefits of our success with
our current shareholders and broaden the appeal of BB&T stock to additional
investors. BB&T's common stock closed at $67.63 per share on June 30, an
increase of 50.3% from the closing price one year ago."
BB&T completed two acquisitions during the second quarter. On June 18, BB&T
purchased Dealers Credit Inc. (DCI), based in Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin. DCI
specializes in extending credit to commercial, agricultural, municipal and
consumer users for the purchase of lawn care equipment. DCI's operations will
complement those of BB&T's current subsidiary, Sheffield Financial Corp., which
serves similar markets.
On June 30, BB&T acquired W.E. Stanley & Company Inc. (Stanley), of
Greensboro, N.C. Stanley is the largest actuarial, consulting and administration
firm headquartered in the Carolinas. The acquisition of Stanley will more than
double the number of employee benefit plans BB&T administers. "The acquisitions
of DCI and Stanley will enable BB&T to increase the number of products and
services we offer to existing and potential clients and will support our efforts
to expand our fee-based business lines," said Mr. Allison.
On May 28, BB&T received special recognition by the U.S. Small Business
Administration for being the No. 1 "small business friendly" bank among the 50
largest U.S. banks. "We place a great deal of emphasis on our relationships with
all of our clients and we are pleased to be recognized for our commitment to
helping small business clients succeed," said Mr. Allison.
On June 23, the Board of Directors approved a 12.9% increase in the
quarterly cash dividend. The increase, to $.35 per share (the equivalent of
$.175 per share after the 2-for-1 stock split becomes effective) marks the 26th
consecutive year BB&T has increased the dividend. The cash dividend is payable
August 3 to shareholders of record July 10.
BB&T had $31.5 billion in assets and 518 banking offices in the Carolinas
and Virginia as of June 30, 1998. 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 July 9 was $69.13 per share.
