NASHVILLE, Tenn., Oct 20, 2009 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Pinnacle Financial Partners Inc. (Nasdaq/NGS: PNFP) today reported preliminary quarterly results of a loss per fully diluted common share available to common stockholders of ($0.15) for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2009, compared to $0.36 of earnings per fully diluted common share available to common stockholders for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2008.

Fully diluted loss per common share available to common stockholders was ($1.39) for the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2009, compared to $0.96 of earnings per fully diluted common share available to common stockholders for the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2008.

SUMMARY OF KEY POINTS:

-- Pinnacle increased the loan loss allowance and associated provision expense during the third quarter of 2009 as a result of continued weakness in the local real estate market and higher nonperforming assets.

-- Meaningful growth in loans and core deposits reflect dissatisfaction with the large regional banks in Nashville and Knoxville, including core deposit growth of 16.0 percent from Sept. 30, 2008.

-- Net interest margin increased from 2.75 percent for the quarter ended June 30, 2009, to 3.05 percent for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2009.

-- Revenue grew 9.73 percent from the third quarter of 2008 to the third quarter of 2009.

Net loan growth during the third quarter of 2009 was $64 million, compared to $70 million in the second quarter of 2009 and $119 million in the first quarter of 2009. At Sept. 30, 2009, Pinnacle's allowance for loan losses was 2.30 percent of total loans, compared to 1.86 percent at June 30, 2009, and 1.09 percent at Sept. 30, 2008.

"Our third quarter results reflect increased provisioning due primarily to our assessment of increasing risk associated within our loan portfolio, particularly the residential construction and land development portfolio," said M. Terry Turner, Pinnacle's president and chief executive officer. "Credit quality remains the primary area of focus for us, but we are also growing our client base with high quality relationships. With our capital strength we should be well-positioned to continue to take advantage of the current market turmoil as evidenced by our core deposit growth of 16.0 percent over last year."

In the 2009 market share report for the Nashville and Knoxville MSAs issued by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) on Oct. 16, 2009, Pinnacle was the fastest-growing financial institution in both MSAs for the year. It remains the fourth largest institution in Nashville with a market share of 10.52 percent, up from 9.56 percent the previous year. Pinnacle Knoxville moved up five places to ninth largest since its 2007 de novo opening. The report showed Pinnacle and other smaller competitors continue to take market share from the regionals and nationals in the two markets.

THIRD QUARTER 2009 HIGHLIGHTS:

-- Operating results -- Revenue (the sum of net interest income and noninterest income) for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2009, amounted to $42.29 million, compared to $38.53 million for the same quarter of last year, an increase of 9.73 percent.

-- Net loss available to common stockholders for the third quarter of 2009 was ($4.85 million), compared to the prior year's third quarter net income available to common shareholders of $8.80 million. Included in the net loss available to common stockholders for the third quarter of 2009 was $1.21 million of preferred stock dividends related to securities issued under the U.S. Treasury's Capital Purchase Program.

-- Continued balance sheet growth -- Loans at Sept. 30, 2009, were $3.61 billion, up $405 million from $3.20 billion at Sept. 30, 2008, representing an annual organic growth rate of 12.6 percent.

-- Total deposits at Sept. 30, 2009, were $3.82 billion, up $525 million from $3.30 billion at Sept. 30, 2008, representing an annual organic growth rate of 15.9 percent.

-- Core funding (all deposits except time deposits greater than $100,000) amounted to $2.24 billion at Sept. 30, 2009, an increase of 16.0 percent from the $1.93 billion at Sept. 30, 2008. Core funding also increased by $148 million during the third quarter of 2009, or an annualized growth rate of 28.4 percent from balances as of June 30, 2009.

-- Credit quality -- Net charge-offs were $5.2 million for the three months ended Sept. 30, 2009, compared to $73,000 for the three months ended Sept. 30, 2008. Net charge-offs as a percentage of average loan balances were 0.58 percent (annualized) for the three months ended Sept. 30, 2009, compared to 0.41 percent (annualized) for the three months ended Sept. 30, 2008. Net charge-offs as a percentage of average loan balances were 2.04 percent (annualized) for the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2009, compared to 0.05 percent (annualized) for the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2008. The $21.5 million charge-off of a loan to a bank holding company disclosed in May of this year accounted for 0.80 percent annualized net charge-off as a percentage of average loan balances for the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2009.

-- Nonperforming assets were 3.98 percent of total loans and other real estate at Sept. 30, 2009, compared to 0.86 percent at Dec. 31, 2008, and 0.93 percent at Sept. 30, 2008.

-- Past due loans over 30 days, excluding nonperforming loans, were 0.86 percent of total loans at Sept. 30, 2009; 0.60 percent at Dec. 31, 2008; and 0.61 percent at Sept. 30, 2008.

-- Capital -- At Sept. 30, 2009, Pinnacle's ratio of tangible common stockholders' equity to tangible assets was 7.5 percent, compared to 6.2 percent at Dec. 31, 2008. Pinnacle's tangible book value per common share was $10.99 at Sept. 30, 2009, compared to $11.70 at Dec. 31, 2008.

-- At Sept. 30, 2009, Pinnacle's total risk based capital ratio was 14.7 percent, compared to 13.5 percent at Dec. 31, 2008.

"Although we are disappointed with the increase in nonperforming loans, we are pleased with another quarter of solid loan and core deposit growth," Turner said. "We continue to add new, quality relationships, grow core deposits and improve our margins, resulting in stronger net interest income this quarter. We have added significant resources to address problem assets, including the reassignment of experienced professionals to these areas to pursue the aggressive resolution of these matters.

"We believe Nashville and Knoxville were late in feeling the impact of this credit cycle," Turner said. "The indicators we use to signal a meaningful recovery do not appear to be improving at sufficient levels at this time. As a result, we believe it is in the best interests of our shareholders to proceed with caution and postpone redemption of the preferred stock we issued under the U.S. Treasury's Capital Purchase Program until we are both confident that there has been sufficient improvement in economic conditions and we see reductions in the growth of our problem assets."

CREDIT QUALITY

-- Allowance for loan losses represented 2.30 percent of total loans at Sept. 30, 2009, compared to 1.86 percent at June 30, 2009, and 1.09 percent a year ago.

-- Provision for loan losses was $22.13 million for the third quarter of 2009, compared to $3.13 million for the third quarter of 2008. -- During the third quarter of 2009, the firm recorded net charge-offs of $5.2 million, compared to net charge-offs of $73,000 during the same period in 2008. Annualized net charge-offs to total average loans were 2.04 percent for the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2009.

"Net charge-offs of more than $5 million during the third quarter were slightly higher than we anticipated," Turner said. "Although it appears that real estate values are stabilizing, we do not believe a meaningful real estate market recovery will begin in the near term. In spite of this, we remain committed to the rapid reduction of our nonperforming asset levels."

Pinnacle reported that nonperforming loans and other real estate owned as a percentage of total loans and other real estate owned increased from 3.34 percent at June 30, 2009, to 3.98 percent at Sept. 30, 2009. The following is a summary of the activity in various nonperforming asset categories for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2009:

REVENUE

-- Net interest income for third quarter 2009 was $34.55 million, compared to $29.28 million for the same quarter last year, an increase of 17.99 percent. -- Net interest margin for the third quarter of 2009 was 3.05 percent, compared to a net interest margin of 2.75 percent for the second quarter of 2009 and 3.14 percent for the same period last year.

-- Noninterest income for the third quarter 2009 was $7.74 million, a 16.38 percent decrease from the $9.25 million recorded during the same quarter in 2008. The decrease is due to lower consumer deposit fees and less revenue from Pinnacle's investment and insurance businesses. Additionally, the second quarter of 2008 included a one-time gain of $695,000 from the sale of a loan.

"We are pleased with the progress we have made in the improvement of our net interest margin in the third quarter," said Harold Carpenter, Pinnacle's chief financial officer. "Our net interest income is up more than $4 million from the second quarter. That increase is the result of a focused effort by our relationship managers to increase loan pricing as well as more emphasis on gathering lower cost core deposits. We are optimistic that we will continue to improve our margins for the remainder of this year."

Net interest income was $34.55 million during the third quarter of 2009, which was an all-time high for Pinnacle and represented an increase of 13.23 percent over second quarter of 2009 and an increase of 17.99 percent over the third quarter of 2008. This increase was attributable to increased loan volumes as well as lower deposit costs, primarily related to reductions in interest rates paid on time deposits and a large funding shift to money market deposit accounts.

Noninterest income was $7.74 million during the third quarter of 2009, down from the $10.6 million during the second quarter of 2009 and $9.3 million during the third quarter of 2008. Noninterest income declined 27.03 percent on a linked-quarter basis due primarily to a decrease in the amount of gains on the sale of investment securities and gains on the sales of loans, the latter of which is attributable to reduced volumes for the firm's mortgage origination business.

During the third quarter of 2009, Pinnacle's mortgage origination unit sold $114 million of mortgage loans, compared to $213.2 million sold during the second quarter of 2009 and $71.9 million during the third quarter of 2008. Gross fees on these loan sales were $1.83 million in the third quarter of 2009, compared to $3.03 million in the second quarter of 2009 and $1.29 million in the third quarter of 2008.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE AND TAXES

-- Noninterest expense for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2009, was $27.28 million, compared to $30.6 million in the second quarter of 2009 and $23.33 million in the third quarter of 2008.

-- Compensation expense was $14.25 million during the third quarter of 2009, compared to $12.68 million during the second quarter of 2009 and $13.01 million during the third quarter of 2008. The increase in compensation expense between the second and third quarters of 2009 was due primarily to the reversal of approximately $1.07 million of previously accrued incentive costs in the second quarter.

-- Included in noninterest expense for the third quarter of 2009 was $1.3 million in other real estate expenses, of which $0.7 million was attributable to losses on the sale of other real estate properties. Third quarter 2009 other real estate expense was approximately $2.7 million less than second quarter 2009 other real estate expense.

-- Also impacting the comparison of third quarter 2009 expense to the second quarter 2009 expense was the FDIC special assessment, which was accrued in the second quarter of 2009.

-- The efficiency ratio (noninterest expense divided by net interest income and noninterest income) was 64.5 percent during the third quarter of 2009, compared to 74.4 percent for the second quarter of 2009 and 60.5 percent in the third quarter of 2008.

-- Due to the continued operating losses of the company, the effective tax benefit rate for the third quarter of 2009 was approximately 53.1 percent, compared to a 27.2 percent effective tax expense rate for the same quarter in 2008.

"Our effective tax rate continues to reflect the impact of our current loss position and various tax saving initiatives," Carpenter said. "Our current projections indicate that we will approximate a 45 percent effective tax benefit rate for the year ending Dec. 31, 2009."

Carpenter noted that the firm would evaluate impairment of goodwill, if necessary, prior to filing its Form 10-Q with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

INVESTMENTS IN FUTURE GROWTH

-- Pinnacle has hired 41 highly experienced associates for its denovo expansion to Knoxville that was announced on April 9, 2007. Loans outstanding in Knoxville at Sept. 30, 2009, were $385.6 million. Pinnacle has opened a second full-service office in the Fountain City area of Knoxville this week and will open another in the Farragut area later this year.

-- Pinnacle also has three new Nashville offices under construction -- two in the Belle Meade and 100 Oaks areas in Nashville and one in Brentwood, Tenn. The Belle Meade and Brentwood offices are expected to open in late fourth quarter of 2009, with two existing Brentwood locations consolidating into the new Brentwood office. The firm anticipates the new 100 Oaks office to open in the first half of 2010.

-- Pinnacle's total associate base at Sept. 30, 2009, was 768.0 full-time equivalents (FTEs), compared to 723.0 at Sept. 30, 2008. Pinnacle anticipates increasing its associate base by approximately 20 associates during the remainder of 2009.

SELECTED QUARTERLY FINANCIAL DATA - UNAUDITED
1. Ratios are presented on an annualized basis.
2. Net interest margin is the result of net interest income on a tax
equivalent basis divided by average interest earning assets.
3. Total revenue is equal to the sum of net interest income and
noninterest income.
4. Efficiency ratios are calculated by dividing noninterest expense
by the sum of net interest income and noninterest income.
5. Average risk ratings are based on an internal loan review system
which assigns a numeric value of 1 to 10 to all loans to commercial
entities based on their underlying risk characteristics as of the
end of each quarter. A "1" risk rating is assigned to credits that
exhibit Excellent risk characteristics, "2" exhibit Very Good risk
characteristics, "3" Good, "4" Satisfactory, "5" Acceptable or
Average, "6" Watch List, "7" Criticized, "8" Classified or
Substandard, "9" Doubtful and "10" Loss (which are charged-off
immediately). Additionally, loans rated "8" or worse that are not
nonperforming loans are considered potential problem loans.
Generally, consumer loans are not subjected to internal risk ratings.
6. Annualized net loan charge-offs to average loans ratios are
computed by annualizing year-to-date net loan charge-offs and
dividing the result by average loans for the year-to-date period.
7. Computed by dividing the balance of all loans by the number of
loan accounts as of the end of each quarter.
8. Capital ratios are for Pinnacle Financial Partners, Inc. and are
defined as follows:
Equity to total assets - End of period total stockholders' equity as
a percentage of end of period assets.
Leverage - Tier one capital (pursuant to risk-based capital
guidelines) as a percentage of adjusted average assets.
Tier one risk-based - Tier one capital (pursuant to risk-based
capital guidelines) as a percentage of total risk-weighted assets.
Total risk-based - Total capital (pursuant to risk-based capital
guidelines) as a percentage of total risk-weighted assets.
9. Book value per share computed by dividing total stockholders'
equity less preferred stock and common stock warrants by common
shares outstanding.
10. Amounts are included in the statement of operations in "Gains on
the sale of loans and loan participations sold", net of commissions
paid on such amounts.
11. At fair value, based on information obtained from Pinnacle's
third party broker/dealer for non-FDIC insured financial products
and services.
12. Floating rate loans are those loans that are eligible for
repricing on a daily basis subject to changes in Pinnacle's prime
lending rate or other factors.
13. Core deposits include all transaction deposit accounts, money
market and savings accounts and all certificates of deposit issued
in a denomination of less than $100,000. The ratio noted above
represents total core deposits divided by total funding, which
includes total deposits, FHLB advances, securities sold under
agreements to repurchase, subordinated indebtedness and all other
interest-bearing liabilities.
14. Associate retention rate is computed by dividing the number of
associates employed at quarter-end less the number of associates
that have resigned in the last 12 months by the number of associates
employed at quarter-end.
15. Employment and unemployment data is from the US Dept. of Labor
Bureau of Labor Statistics. Labor force data is not seasonally
adjusted. The most recent quarter data presented is as of the most
recent month that data is available as of the release date. The
Nashville home data is from the Greater Nashville Association of
Realtors.
16. Brokered deposits do not include balances under the Certificate
of Deposit Account Registry Service (CDARS).
