This report contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the
federal securities laws. The forward-looking statements in this report are
subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those expressed in or implied by the statements. Factors that
may cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by such

possibilities: (i) deposit attrition, customer loss, or revenue loss in the
ordinary course of business; (ii) increases in competitive pressure in the
banking industry; (iii) changes in the interest rate environment which reduce
margins; (iv) general economic conditions, either nationally or regionally, that
are less favorable then expected, resulting in, among other things, a
deterioration in credit quality, (v) changes which may occur in the regulatory
environment; (vi) a significant rate of inflation or deflation; and (vii)
changes in the securities markets. When used in this Report, the words
"believes," "estimates," "plans," "expects," "should," "may," "might,"

THE COLONIAL BANCGROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE A: ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Colonial BancGroup, Inc. and its subsidiaries ("BancGroup" or the "Company")
have not changed their accounting and reporting policies from those stated in
the 2000 annual report on Form 10-K. These unaudited interim financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements
and footnotes included in BancGroup's 2000 annual report on Form 10-K.
In the opinion of BancGroup, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal
recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position as of
June 30, 2001 and 2000 and the results of operations and cash flows for the
interim periods ended June 30, 2001 and 2000. All 2001 interim amounts are
subject to year-end audit, and the results of operations for the interim period
herein are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be
expected for the year.
NOTE B: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
BancGroup and its subsidiaries are from time to time defendants in legal actions
arising from normal business activities. Management does not anticipate that the
ultimate liability arising from litigation outstanding at June 30, 2001 will
have a materially adverse effect on BancGroup's financial statements.
NOTE C: BUSINESS COMBINATIONS AND ACQUISITIONS
On January 13, 2001, Colonial Bank acquired two branches in Nevada from First
Security Bank in a branch divestiture resulting from their merger with Wells
Fargo. Through this acquisition, the Company purchased $49.5 million in loans
and assumed $102.9 million in deposits.
During the second quarter, Colonial BancGroup entered into a definitive
agreement to acquire Manufacturers Bancshares, Inc. ("Manufacturers") and its
wholly owned subsidiary, Manufacturers Bank of Florida ("Manufacturers Bank").
Manufacturers Bank, which operates four branches in the Tampa area, had $294.8
million in assets as of June 30, 2001. BancGroup estimates approximately
3,852,814 shares of its common stock will be issued to stockholders of
Manufacturers. This estimate is based on criteria established in the Agreement
and Plan of Merger dated June 18, 2001 and may change based on movement in the
market price of BancGroup common stock prior to closing. This transaction is
pending approval by various regulatory agencies and the shareholders of
Manufacturers. It is expected that this transaction will be accounted for as a
pooling of interest and
9
will close in the fourth quarter of 2001. The Company also expects to reissue
approximately 800,000 shares of Treasury stock prior to completing the
acquisition.
Also during the second quarter, Colonial BancGroup entered into a branch
purchase and assumption agreement with Union Planters Corporation to acquire 13
Union Planters offices. Nine of these offices are located in Florida in the
Tampa and Naples areas and have approximately $244 million in deposits. The
remaining four offices, which have approximately $114 million in deposits, are
located in Alabama in Elmore County, which is just north of Montgomery. This
transaction is pending approval by various regulatory agencies and is expected
to close in the fourth quarter of 2001.
NOTE D: RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June 1998, the Financials Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 133
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" which establishes
accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain
derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, (collectively referred to as
derivatives) and for hedging activities. It requires that entities recognize all
derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial
position and measure those instruments at fair value. If certain conditions are
met, a derivative may be specifically designated as (a) a hedge of the exposure
to changes in the fair value of a recognized asset or liability or an
unrecognized firm commitment, (b) a hedge of the exposure to variable cash flows
of a forecasted transaction, or (c) a hedge of the foreign currency exposure of
a net investment in a foreign operation, an unrecognized firm commitment, an
available-for-sale security, or a foreign-currency-denominated forecasted
transaction. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative (that
is, gains and losses) depends on the intended use of the derivative and the
resulting designation.
Under this Statement, an entity that elects to apply hedge accounting is
required to establish at the inception of the hedge the method it will use for
assessing the effectiveness of the hedging derivative and the measurement
approach for determining the ineffective aspect of the hedge. Those methods must
be consistent with the entity's approach to managing risk.
On September 23, 1999, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No.
137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities -- Deferral
of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133," an amendment to delay the
effective date of SFAS No. 133. The effective date for this statement was
delayed from fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999 to fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2000. BancGroup adopted SFAS No. 133 and SFAS No. 137
on January 1, 2001 and as of the date of these financial statements, all of
BancGroup's hedging relationships qualified for hedge accounting treatment per
these statements. The effect of these statements is immaterial to the financials
statements presented.
10
On September 29, 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No.
140, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and
Extinguishments of Liabilities, a Replacement of FASB Statement No. 125." This
statement is effective for transfers after April 1, 2001. The implementation of
SFAS No. 140 did not have a material impact on BancGroup's financial statements.
On June 29, 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 141,
"Business Combinations". The effective date for this statement is effective for
all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. This statement
supercedes Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 16, "Business Combinations".
SFAS No. 141 requires the purchase method of accounting be used for all business
combinations initiated after June 30, 2001, establishes specific criteria for
the recognition of intangible assets separately from goodwill, and requires
unallocated negative goodwill to be written off immediately as an extraordinary
gain instead of being deferred and amortized. Management is currently evaluating
the impact that SFAS No. 141 will have on BancGroup's financials.
On June 29, 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 142,
"Intangible Assets". The effective date for this statement is effective for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. SFAS No. 142 requires that
goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets no longer be amortized, that
goodwill will be tested for impairment at least annually, that intangible assets
deemed to have an indefinite life will be tested for impairment at least
annually, and that amortization period of intangible assets with finite lives
will no longer be limited to forty years. Management is currently evaluating the
impact that SFAS No. 142 will have on BancGroup's financials.
NOTE E: DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
As noted in prior quarters, in July 2000 the Company decided to exit the
mortgage servicing business and discontinue the operations of mortgage servicing
as a separate business unit. As of December 31, 2000, all loan transfers were
completed and the mortgage servicing rights removed from the Company's balance
sheet. In addition, the escrow and custodial deposits related to those
servicing rights have been transferred out of Colonial Bank resulting in a $229
million reduction in average noninterest bearing deposits from June 30, 2000 to
June 30, 2001. At June 30, 2001, the balance sheet of the Company includes
approximately $7.4 million in receivables and other advances related to the
various transfers of servicing. These receivable and advance balances represent
the expected recoverable amounts once all documentation supporting the
transferred loans is provided to the new servicer. The anticipated costs of
providing the necessary documents have been accrued. However, due to the volume
of loans transferred and the costs and complexity in providing certain
documentation, the Company's current estimate of recoverable amounts or costs
may be revised for future periods.

Through its wholly owned subsidiary Colonial Bank, BancGroup has previously
segmented its operations into two distinct lines of business: Commercial Banking
and Mortgage Banking. Mortgage Banking was discontinued as a line of business in
July 2000. Colonial Bank operates 243 branches throughout 6 states.

Assets:
BancGroup's assets have increased 5.6% and 4.7% since June 30, 2000 and December
31, 2000, respectively. This growth resulted primarily from internal loan growth
throughout BancGroup's banking regions partially offset by the decline in
mortgage banking assets due to the discontinuance of this line of business as
discussed in Note E to the consolidated financial statements.
Securities:
Investment securities and securities available for sale have decreased $645,000
and increased $144.6 million (9.7%) from June 30, 2000 and December 31, 2000,
respectively. In addition to normal business activities, in June 2001 BancGroup
securitized $307 million of single-family real estate loans. BancGroup retained
substantially all of the interest earned on the securitized assets which are
reflected as mortgage backed securities in the investment portfolio.
14
Loans and Mortgage Loans Held for Sale:
Loans, net of unearned income, have increased $837.5 million (9.4%) and $342.4
million (3.6%) from June 30, 2000 and December 31, 2000, respectively. Loan
growth was partially offset by the securitization of $307 million of single-
family real estate loans which were transferred to securities in the investment
portfolio as mortgage backed securities. Internal loan growth from June 30, 2000
and December 31, 2000 was 12.3% and 12.8% annualized, respectively. The Mortgage
Warehouse Lending unit, which provides lines of credit secured by single-family
residential loans in the process of being sold, contributed $584.6 million and
$480.5 million of this growth from June 30, 2000 and December 31, 2000,
respectively. In addition to internal growth, $49.5 million of the increase in
loans was the result of the acquisition of two branches in Nevada, as discussed
in Note C of the consolidated financial statements.

Commercial loans collateralized by real estate and construction loans increased
approximately $335.2 million and $70.8 million, respectively from December 31,
2000 and $680.3 million and $130.7 million, respectively, from June 30, 2000.
Mortgage Warehouse Lending's loan growth was due primarily to declines in
mortgage interest rates which significantly increased the volume of mortgage
loan applications for new and refinanced borrowing. The decrease in Residential
Real Estate is primarily due to the second quarter securitization previously
discussed. BancGroup's loans are concentrated in various areas in Alabama, the
metropolitan Atlanta market in Georgia as well as BancGroup's markets in
Florida, Nevada, and Texas.
BancGroup does not have a syndicated lending department; however, the Company
has commitments (including unfunded amounts) that fall within the regulatory
definition of a "shared national credit". These commitments total approximately
$504 million, up from $193 million at December 31, 2000. Substantially all of
this increase was attributed to the growth within our Mortgage Warehouse Lending
unit.
15
Management believes that any existing distribution of loans, whether
geographically, by industry, or by borrower, does not expose BancGroup to
unacceptable levels of risk. The current distribution of loans remains diverse
in location, size, and collateral function. These differences, in addition to
our emphasis on quality underwriting, serve to reduce the risk of losses. The
following chart reflects the geographic diversity, and industry distribution of
Construction and Commercial Real Estate loans as of June 30, 2001.

Allocations of the allowance for possible loan losses are made on an individual
loan basis for all identified potential problem loans with a percentage
allocation for the remaining portfolio. The allocation of the remaining
allowance represents an approximation of the reserves for each category of loans
based on management's evaluation of the respective historical charge-off
experience and risk within each loan type.

As expected based on softening economic conditions, nonperforming assets
increased to 0.72% of net loans and other real estate at June 30, 2001.
Nonperforming assets have increased $19.5 million from December 31, 2000. Most
of this increase was from one loan relationship. Annualized net charge-offs
remained low at .22% of loans year to date, well below industry averages.
Management continuously monitors and evaluates recoverability of problem assets
and adjusts loan loss reserves accordingly. Loan loss reserve was 1.17% of loans
at June 30, 2001 compared to 1.14% at December 31, 2000 and 1.14% at June 30,
2000.

Management, through its loan officers, internal credit review staff and external
examinations by regulatory agencies, has identified approximately $159.7 million
of potential problem loans not included above. The status of these loans is
reviewed at least quarterly by loan officers and annually by BancGroup's
centralized credit review function and by regulatory agencies. In connection
with such reviews, collateral values are updated where considered necessary. If
collateral values are judged insufficient or other sources of repayment
inadequate, the loans are reduced to estimated recoverable amounts through
increases in reserves allocated to the loans or charge-offs. As of June 30,
2001, substantially all of these loans were current with their existing
repayment terms. Management believes that classification of such loans as
potential problem loans well in advance of their reaching a delinquent status
allows the Company the greatest flexibility in correcting problems and providing
adequate reserves. Given the reserves and the ability of the borrowers to comply
with the existing repayment terms, management believes any exposure from these
potential problem loans has been adequately addressed at the present time.
Management does not currently expect the ratio of nonperforming assets to total
loans to exceed .80% and net charge-offs to average loans to exceed .25% for the
year.
The above nonperforming loans and potential problem loans represent all material
credits for which management has serious doubts as to the ability of the
borrowers to comply with the loan repayment terms. Management also expects that
the resolution of these problem credits as well as other performing loans will
not materially impact future operating results, liquidity or capital resources.
The recorded investment in impaired loans at June 30, 2001 was $54.2 million and
these loans had a corresponding valuation allowance of $25.3 million.
LIQUIDITY:
BancGroup has addressed its liquidity and interest rate sensitivity through its
policies and structure for asset/liability management. It has created the
Asset/Liability Management Committee ("ALMCO"), the objective of which is to
optimize the net interest margin while assuming reasonable business risks. ALMCO
annually establishes operating constraints for critical elements of BancGroup's
business, such as liquidity and interest rate sensitivity. ALMCO constantly
monitors performance and takes action in order to meet its objectives.
A prominent focus of ALMCO is maintaining adequate liquidity. Liquidity is the
ability of an organization to meet its financial commitments and obligations on
a timely basis. These commitments and obligations include credit needs of
customers, withdrawals by depositors, repayment of debt when due and payment of
operating expenses and dividends.
Core deposit growth is a primary focus of BancGroup's funding and liquidity
strategy. Average retail deposits excluding time deposits grew at an annualized
rate of 13% for the six months ended June 30,
20
2001. This growth continues to be primarily from the Company's high growth
markets, with Florida contributing 37% of this growth. Deposit growth will
continue to be a primary strategic objective of the Company.
In addition to funding growth through core deposits, BancGroup has worked to
expand the availability of long and short term wholesale funding sources. The
following table estimates the total wholesale funding sources that BancGroup
believes would be available to it, along with what portion of those sources were
used as of June 30, 2001. It should be noted that these are estimates, these
funding sources are not guaranteed lines.

Management believes its liquidity sources and funding strategies are adequate
given the nature of its asset base and current loan demand.
On May 23, 2001, Colonial Bank issued $150 million in subordinated notes at
9.375% due June 1, 2011 for general corporate and banking purposes in the
ordinary course of business. This debt qualifies as Tier II capital. In
connection with this issuance, BancGroup executed an interest rate swap whereby
BancGroup will receive a fixed rate and pay a floating rate, effectively
converting the fixed rate notes to floating. The result of this interest rate
swap created a current effective rate on the notes for the second quarter ending
June 30, 2001 of 7.2175%.
INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY:
The Federal Reserve has lowered the target fed funds rate a total of 275 basis
points since December 31, 2000. The Federal Reserve actions have been dramatic
and appear to be designed to stimulate growth in the economy and head off the
potential for a recession.
ALMCO's goal is to minimize volatility in the net interest margin by taking an
active role in managing the level, mix, repricing characteristics and maturities
of assets and liabilities and by analyzing and taking
21
action to manage mismatch and basis risk. ALMCO monitors the impact of
changes in interest rates on net interest income using several tools,
including static rate sensitivity reports, or Gap reports, and income
simulations modeling under multiple rate scenarios.
The following table represents the output from the Company's simulation model
and measures the impact on net interest income of an immediate and sustained
change in interest rates in 100 basis point increments for the 12 calendar
months following the date of the change.
Percentage Change in Net Interest Income (1)

(1) The computation of prospective effects of hypothetical interest rate changes
are based on numerous assumptions, including relative levels of market
interest rates, loan prepayments and deposit decay rates, and should not be
relied upon as indicative of actual results. Further, the computations do
not contemplate any actions BancGroup could undertake in response to changes
in interest rates.
The following table summarizes BancGroup's Maturity / Rate Sensitivity or Gap at
June 30, 2001.
(Dollars in millions)
0-90 days 0-365 days
------------------------- ------------------------
Rate Sensitive Assets (RSA) $5,509 $6,744
Rate Sensitive Liabilities (RSL) 3,737 7,097
Cumulative Gap (RSA-RSL) 1,772 (353)
Cumulative Gap Ratio
(Cum. Gap / Total Assets) 14% (3%)
The last two lines of the proceeding table represents interest rate sensitivity
gap which is the difference between rate sensitive assets and rate sensitive
liabilities. The interest sensitivity table reflects a 14% positive gap at 90
days and a (3%) negative gap at 12 months. The six reductions in the Federal
Funds rate by the federal reserve during the year have had a negative impact on
the margin due to the company's asset sensitive position in the first three
months following rate changes. Thereafter, the company is liability sensitive
and should benefit from rate reductions as liabilities catch up and reprice to
lower levels.
In reviewing the table, it should be noted that the balances are shown for a
specific point in time and, because the interest sensitivity position is
dynamic, it can change significantly over time. For all interest
22
earning assets and interest bearing liabilities, variable rate assets and
liabilities are reflected in the time interval of the assets or liabilities'
earliest repricing date. Fixed rate assets and liabilities have been allocated
to various time intervals based on contractual repayment. Furthermore, the
balances reflect contractual repricing of the deposits and management's position
on repricing certain deposits where management discretion is permitted.
Prepayment assumptions are applied at a constant rate based on the Company's
historical experience. Certain demand deposit accounts and regular savings
accounts have been classified as repricing beyond one year in accordance with
regulatory guidelines. While these accounts are subject to immediate withdrawal,
experience and analysis have shown them to be relatively rate insensitive.
CAPITAL RESOURCES:
Management is committed to maintaining capital at a level sufficient to protect
shareholders and depositors, provide for reasonable growth and fully comply with
all regulatory requirements. Management's strategy to achieve these goals is to
retain sufficient earnings while providing a reasonable return to shareholders
in the form of dividends and return on equity. The Company's dividend payout
ratio target range is 30-45%. Dividend rates are determined by the Board of
Directors in consideration of several factors including current and projected
capital ratios, liquidity and income levels and other bank dividend yields and
payment ratios.
The amount of a cash dividend, if any, rests with the discretion of the Board of
Directors of BancGroup as well as upon applicable statutory constraints such as
the Delaware law requirement that dividends may be paid only out of capital
surplus or net profits for the fiscal year in which the dividend is declared or
the preceding fiscal year.
BancGroup also has access to equity capital markets through both public and
private issuances. Management considers these sources and related return in
addition to internally generated capital in evaluating future expansion or
acquisition opportunities.
23
The Federal Reserve Board has issued guidelines identifying minimum Tier I
leverage ratios relative to total assets and minimum capital ratios relative to
risk-adjusted assets. The minimum leverage ratio is 3% but is increased from 100
to 200 basis points based on a review of individual banks by the Federal
Reserve. The minimum risk adjusted capital ratios established by the Federal
Reserve are 4% for Tier I and 8% for total capital. BancGroup's actual capital
ratios and the components of capital and risk adjusted asset information
(subject to regulatory review) as of June 30, 2001 are stated below:
Capital (in thousands):
Tier I Capital:

Risk Adjusted Capital Ratios:
Tier I Capital Ratio (minimum 4%) 7.60% 8.21%
Total Capital Ratio (minimum 8%) 11.26% 10.58%
BancGroup has increased capital gradually through normal earnings retention as
well as through stock registrations to capitalize acquisitions. The decrease in
the Tier I Capital Ratio is primarily due to asset growth and a change in the
mix of assets. The increase in the Total Capital Ratio is due to the issuance on
May 23, 2001 of $150 million in subordinated debt by Colonial Bank that
qualifies as Tier II Capital.
Management continuously monitors its capital levels in order to ensure it is
taking the necessary steps to support future internally generated growth and
fund the quarterly dividend rates that are currently $0.12 per share each
quarter.

(1) Increases (decreases) are attributed to volume changes and rate changes on
the following basis: Volume Change = change in volume times old rate. Rate
Change = change in rate times old volume. The Rate/Volume Change = change
in volume times change in rate, and it is allocated between Volume Change
and Rate Change at the ratio that the absolute value of each of those
components bear to the absolute value of their total.
(2) Interest earned and average rates on obligations of states and political
subdivisions are reflected on a tax equivalent basis. Tax equivalent
interest earned is: actual interest earned times 145%. Tax equivalent
average rate is: tax equivalent interest earned divided by average volume.

NET INTEREST INCOME:
Net interest income from continuing operations on a tax equivalent basis
increased $2.6 million to $102.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2001
from $100.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2000. For the six months
ended June 30, 2001, net interest income from continuing operations on a tax
equivalent basis increased $5.0 million to $203.4 as compared to $198.4 million
for the same period in 2000. Net interest margins decreased to 3.53% for the
second quarter of 2001 compared to 3.59% for the first quarter of 2001, and
3.85% for the second quarter of 2000. Net interest margins decreased from 3.86%
to 3.56% for the six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to the same period in
2001.
Growth in loans, specifically mortgage warehouse loans had a significant impact
on the margin for the quarter and six months. Mortgage warehouse loans have
lower margins due to their relatively low credit risk. The growth in this unit
resulted in an 11 basis point reduction in the margin from second quarter
28
2000 to second quarter 2001 and a 9 basis point reduction for the six months
ended June 30, 2001 as compared to the same period in 2000.
The average rate on loans was 8.05% for the second quarter of 2001 compared to
8.73% for the first quarter 2001 and 8.96% for the second quarter of 2000,
respectively. During this same time, the rate on average interest bearing
deposits was 4.80% for the second quarter of 2001 compared to 5.32% and 5.09%
for the first quarter of 2001 and second quarter of 2000, respectively. Although
rates on deposits have declined, they reprice more slowly than loan rates
primarily due to market competition and the natural lag in the repricing of the
CD's portfolio. Although Certificates of Deposits represent approximately 52% of
Interest Bearing Deposits as of June 30, 2001, $2.4 billion will mature and
reprice within the next six months at rates that are expected to be
approximately 2% below their current cost. Certificates of Deposits maturities
range from seven days to five years but the weighted average remaining maturity
as of June 30, 2001 was less than seven months. The Company also expects
approximately $1.0 billion in fixed rate assets to reprice in that same time
frame at less than a 1.0% reduction in rate.
The increase in long term debt is due to the Company funding loan growth and
also due to BancGroup shifting its mix of wholesale funding from short-term to
long-term funds as rates have declined during 2001.
LOAN LOSS PROVISION:
The provision for possible loan losses for the first quarter ended June 30, 2001
was $7,433,000 compared to $7,414,000 for the same period in 2000. The Company
continues to focus its efforts on relationship based lending to known customers
in its local market areas.
The current allowance for possible loan losses provides a 192% coverage of
nonperforming loans compared to 256% at December 31, 2000 and 256% at June 30,
2000. See management's discussion on loan quality and the allowance for possible
loan losses presented in the Financial Condition section of this report.
NONINTEREST INCOME:
Noninterest income increased $5.4 million (14.5%) for the six months ended June
30, 2001 compared to the same period in 2000 and $3.4 (18.1%) million for the
three months ended June 30, 2001 over the three months ended June 30, 2000.
These increases are primarily attributable to service charges on deposit
accounts, cash management services, mortgage origination income and electronic
banking fees and securities gains.
29
Mortgage origination fees increased $1.1 million (46.0%) for the six months
ended June 30, 2001 compared to the same period in 2000 and $691,000 (56.9%) for
the three months ended June 30, 2001 over the three months ended June 30, 2000.
This increase is the result of additional production of one-to-four family
mortgage loans sold in the secondary market. The increase in production is
directly related to the decrease in mortgage rates in the first half of 2001.
BancGroup continues to expand electronic banking services through its ATM
network, check card services, and internet banking. Non-interest income from
electronic banking services increased 16.9% for the six months ended June 30,
2001 and 15.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2001 compared to the same
periods in 2000.
Service charges on deposit accounts increased $1.1 million (5.8%) for the six
months ended June 30, 2001 over the same period in 2000 and $1.1 million (11.4%)
for the three months ended June 30, 2001 when compared to the three months ended
June 30, 2000. This increase is the result of normal deposit account related
fees and an increase in cash management fees of approximately $400,000 (38.8%)
and $211,000 (40.0%) for the six months and three months ended June 30, 2001,
respectively.
Wealth management experienced a $418,000 and a $99,000 decrease in fee income
from security sales for the six months and three months ended June 30, 2001 over
the same periods in 2000, respectively. This decrease is due to the volatility
in the equity market and the overall outlook on the economy by investors.
NONINTEREST EXPENSES:
In support of the Company's sales culture, BancGroup continues to make strategic
investments in its product and service offerings, technology systems, incentives
and branch network to enhance the Company's competitive presence in existing
markets. BancGroup's philosophy is to make strategic investments in the tools
employees need to optimize its customers' financial success. Accordingly,
noninterest expense increased 10% for the quarter ended June 30, 2001 as
compared to the same period last year.
BancGroup's net overhead (total noninterest expense less noninterest income,
excluding security gains) was $95.3 million for the six months ended June 30,
2001 and $48.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001 compared to
$88.1 million and $44.4 million for the six months and three months ended June
30, 2000, respectively.
30
Noninterest expense increased $10.7 million for the first six months of 2001
compared to 2000 and $6.4 million for the second quarter of 2001 compared to the
second quarter of 2000. Noninterest expense to average assets remained unchanged
at 2.24% for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000.
The increase in bank related expenses is primarily due to an increase of
approximately $6.7 million and $3.6 million for the six months and three months
ended June 30, 2001 over the same periods in 2000, respectively, in salaries and
employee benefits. These salary increases are due to normal salary increases,
additional incentive related compensation, and increased pension costs.
In order to improve the Company's market presence, three of its regional
headquarters were relocated in 2001. The Company also opened ten new branches
and two loan production offices since June 2000. Occupancy and equipment expense
for the six months and second quarter of 2001 increased $2.0 million and $1.2
million, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2000. This increase
is also due to increased rent expense, higher utility cost, and improvements and
expansions of bank facilities. In addition to the changes in branch structure,
the Company continues to invest in improved technology equipment and software.
Intangible asset amortization increased $669,000 and $340,000 for the six months
and three months ended June 30, 2001, respectively, over the same periods in
2000 due to the purchase of two branches in Nevada in January of 2001 (See Note
C to the Consolidated Financial Statements).
PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES:
BancGroup's provision for income taxes is based on an approximate 36.0% and
36.5%, estimated annual effective tax rate for the years 2001 and 2000,
respectively. The provision for income taxes for the six months ended June 30,
2001 and 2000 was $32,925,000 and $34,888,000, respectively.
