BB&T achieves 16.3% growth in third quarter earnings

        WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. -- BB&T Corporation (NYSE:BBT) reported today that earnings for the third quarter of 2000 totaled $225.0 million excluding merger-related charges and losses resulting from restructuring the securities portfolio. These earnings reflect an increase of 16.3% compared to $193.5 million earned on a recurring basis in the third quarter of 1999. On a diluted per share basis, recurring earnings for the third quarter totaled $.56, an increase of 16.7% compared to $.48 earned in the third quarter last year.

        BB&T’s current quarter results, excluding merger-related charges and bond losses, produced an annualized return on average assets of 1.61% and an annualized return on average shareholders’ equity of 20.25%, compared to prior year ratios of 1.49% and 19.35%, respectively.

        During the third quarter of 2000, BB&T incurred merger-related charges totaling $57.9 million and bond losses totaling $117.8 million after related tax benefits. The restructuring of the bond portfolio, which was announced early in the third quarter, will contribute significantly to future earnings.

        “We are very pleased to report strong core financial results for the third quarter of 2000,” said Chairman and Chief Executive Officer John A. Allison. “We continue to achieve healthy core earnings growth despite the impact of rising interest rates on our margin. BB&T ranks among industry leaders in terms of performance, particularly in the areas of loan growth, noninterest income growth, asset quality and efficiency.”

        For the nine months ended Sept. 30, BB&T’s recurring earnings totaled $642.5 million, an increase of 12.9% compared to $568.9 million earned during the first nine months of 1999. Diluted earnings per share, excluding merger-related costs and losses from the securities portfolio restructuring, totaled $1.59 for the first nine months of 2000, an increase of 12.8% compared to $1.41 earned in 1999.

        BB&T’s recurring cash basis earnings totaled $239.7 million for the third quarter, or $.59 per diluted share, increases of 15.7% and 13.5%, respectively, compared to prior year amounts. Recurring cash basis earnings for the third quarter generated an annualized return on average tangible assets of 1.74% and an annualized return on average tangible equity of 25.53%.

        Including merger-related expenses and losses from the bond portfolio restructuring, net income for the third quarter of 2000 totaled $49.3 million, or $.12 per diluted share, compared to $173.8 million, or $.43 per diluted share in the third quarter of 1999. Net income for the nine months ended Sept. 30, totaled $401.0 million, or $.99 per diluted share, compared to $538.8 million, or $1.34 per diluted share, for the first nine months of the prior year.

        “We have continued to strengthen and grow our franchise by pursuing high-quality merger partners on economically sound terms,” said Allison. “We completed our merger with One Valley Bancorp during the quarter, which added $6.6 billion in assets and 125 branches to our organization. The One Valley merger provided BB&T the top deposit market share in West Virginia and significantly strengthened our Virginia franchise. We also announced plans for three acquisitions that will expand BB&T into Tennessee, strengthen our presence in central Maryland and enhance our leading market share in the economically attractive Greenville – Spartanburg, S.C. metropolitan area.”

        “On July 27, BB&T reached an agreement to merge with FCNB Corp, headquartered in Frederick, Md. With $1.6 billion in assets and 34 banking offices , FCNB will strengthen BB&T's presence in economically vibrant central Maryland and the Washington, D.C. corridor. On Aug. 23, BB&T reported plans to acquire BankFirst Corp. of Knoxville, Tenn. BankFirst, with $849 million in assets and 32 banking offices, marks BB&T's initial entry into Tennessee. On Sept. 6, BB&T announced plans to acquire FirstSpartan Financial Corp., of Spartanburg, S.C. FirstSpartan has total assets of $591 million and operates 11 banking offices in South Carolina's rapidly-growing Upstate region.

        “BB&T Insurance Services, the 11th largest retail insurance broker in the country, continued its expansion in the third quarter through the purchase of four independent agencies: Asura Corporation, based in Research Triangle Park, N.C.; Pruden Risk Management, Inc., of Dalton, Ga.; the Chaney, Thomas agencies, of Roanoke, Va.; and Poindexter and Associates, of Martinsville, Va.

        BB&T also announced plans to expand investment banking and brokerage operations during the quarter through the acquisition of Edgar M. Norris & Co., based in Greenville, S.C. This acquisition, which is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter, will combine the largest independent broker / dealer in South Carolina with Scott & Stringfellow, BB&T’s investment banking and brokerage subsidiary. In addition, BB&T acquired Laureate Capital Corp., a commercial mortgage banking firm based in Charlotte, N.C. Laureate is among the 25 largest commercial mortgage banking firms in the U.S. with a loan servicing portfolio of $4.3 billion.

        For the second time in three years, BB&T received recognition from the U.S. Small Business Administration as the No. 1 small business friendly bank in the United States. This acknowledgement reflects the effectiveness of BB&T’s community banking structure and its focus on meeting the financial needs of small businesses.

        BB&T had $56.7 billion in assets and 823 banking offices in the Carolinas, Georgia, Virginia, West Virginia, Kentucky, Maryland and Washington, D.C., as of Sept. 30. BB&T's common stock is traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the trading symbol BBT. The closing price of BB&T's common stock on Oct. 11 was $27.81 per share.

NOTES:     All items referring to loans & leases include loans held for sale & are net of unearned income.
           (1) Balances reflect the securitization of $747.1 million of loans during 2000 and $304.8 million of loans during 1999. Excluding the impact of the securitizations and
                 purchase accounting transactions, YTD average loans would have increased as follows:
                               Commercial loans and leasing 15.4%             Mortgage loans                      3.1 %
                               Consumer loans               11.2              Total loans                        11.4
                               Revolving credit loans       14.7
           (2) Excluding the effects of purchase accounting and the reduction in noninterest-bearing deposits resulting from the outsourcing of the issuance of official checks,
                 YTD average deposits would have increased as follows:
                               Noninterest-bearing deposits  5.8%             Time and other deposits             6.9 %

           (1) Balances reflect the securitization of $747.1 million of loans during 2000 and $304.8 million of loans during 1999. Excluding the impact of the securitizations and
                 purchase accounting transactions, quarterly average loans would have increased as follows:
                               Commercial loans and leases  13.9%             Mortgage loans                     13.0 %

           (2) Excluding the effects of purchase accounting and the reduction in noninterest-bearing deposits resulting from the outsourcing of the issuance of official checks,
                 quarterly average deposits would have increased as follows:
                               Noninterest-bearing deposits  6.1%             Time and other deposits            10.3 %
