WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. -- BB&T Corporation (NYSE:BBT) reported today that
second quarter 1999 earnings totaled $152.8 million compared to $128.0 million
earned in the second quarter of 1998, an increase of 19.3%.
On a diluted per share basis, BB&T earned $.49 for the three months ended
June 30, 1999, an increase of 19.5% compared to the $.41 earned during the same
period a year ago. BB&T's current quarter results produced an annualized return
on average assets of 1.60% and an annualized return on average equity of 20.70%,
compared to ratios of 1.50% and 19.52%, respectively, for the second quarter
last year.
Cash basis earnings, which exclude the amortization of intangible assets,
totaled $163.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999, an increase of
22.1% compared to $133.5 million earned in the second quarter of 1998. On a
diluted per share basis, cash basis earnings totaled $.52 for the second
quarter, an increase of 20.9% compared to 1998. Cash basis operating results for
the second quarter of 1999 produced an annualized return on average tangible
assets of 1.73%, an annualized return on average tangible shareholders' equity
of 26.59% and an efficiency ratio of 50.9%.
For the six months ended June 30, 1999, BB&T's net income was $301.6
million, or $.97 per diluted share, excluding after-tax nonrecurring charges
totaling $10.4 million associated with completing a merger with MainStreet

In an analysis of 48 large bank holding companies published by Salomon
Smith Barney during the second quarter, BB&T ranked as the second highest
performing company in terms of profitability, growth, expense control, fee
income, capital adequacy and asset quality.
On April 28, BB&T announced an agreement to merge with First Liberty
Financial Corp. (First Liberty), headquartered in Macon, Ga. First Liberty, with
approximately $1.7 billion in assets, operates 39 banking offices and 13
consumer finance offices in Macon and Savannah, Ga. and neighboring areas. First
Liberty will be BB&T's second acquisition in the state of Georgia following the
July 9 merger with First Citizens Corporation in the metro Atlanta area. BB&T
will further expand its franchise during the third quarter of 1999 through the
acquisitions of Mason-Dixon Bancshares, Inc., of Westminster, Md., and Matewan
BancShares Inc., of Williamson, W.Va.
BB&T Insurance Services expanded its agency network during the second
quarter by purchasing five independent agencies and the entire book of business
of a sixth agency. BB&T purchased the business of Mays Insurance of Greensboro,
N.C., and completed the acquisitions of Old Dominion Insurance Services, with
offices in Radford, Pulaski and Christiansburg, Va., Givens & Williams Inc.,
located in Fairfax, Va., E.W. Barger & Company, with offices in Charlottesville,
Covington, Harrisonburg, Lexington, Richmond and Waynesboro, Va., G.C. Wright
Co. Inc., of Petersburg, Va. and James River Title Agency, Inc., in Richmond,
Va. BB&T Insurance Services is the largest independent insurance agency network
in the Carolinas and the 16th largest in the country.
On June 22, BB&T's board of directors approved a 14.3% increase in the
quarterly cash dividend paid to shareholders. The increase, to $.20 per share,
marks the 27th consecutive year BB&T has increased the quarterly cash dividend.
The dividend is payable Aug. 2 to shareholders of record on July 16.
At June 30, BB&T had $39.2 billion in assets and 575 banking offices in the
Carolinas, Virginia, Maryland and Washington, D.C. BB&T's common stock is traded
on the New York Stock Exchange under the trading symbol BBT.
