SOUTHSIDE BANCSHARES, INC.
ANNOUNCES NET INCOME FOR THE
THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2014
NASDAQ Global Select Market Symbol - “SBSI”

Tyler, Texas, (October 24, 2014) Southside Bancshares, Inc. (“Southside” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ:SBSI) today reported its financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014.

Southside reported net income of $6.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014, a decrease of $2.8 million, or 31.4%, when compared to $8.9 million for the same period in 2013. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 decreased $4.2 million, or 14.6%, to $24.8 million when compared to $29.0 million for the same period in 2013.

Diluted earnings per common share were $0.32 and $0.47 for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, a decrease of $0.15, or 31.9%. For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, diluted earnings per common share decreased $0.23, or 14.9% to $1.31 when compared to $1.54 for the same period in 2013.

The return on average shareholders’ equity for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was 11.92%, compared to 15.47% for the same period in 2013.  The return on average assets was 0.97% for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to 1.16% for the same period in 2013.

“We are pleased to report the financial results for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2014,” stated Sam Dawson, President and Chief Executive Officer of Southside Bancshares, Inc. “During the third quarter, we experienced meaningful loan growth, including significant loan growth in commercial real estate of $60.7 million. Most of this growth was in our Austin and Fort Worth market areas. We also enjoyed growth in our municipal, construction and commercial loan portfolios during the quarter. Nonperforming assets to total assets decreased to 0.29% at the end of the quarter from 0.42% at June 30, 2014.”

“We are extremely gratified that our shareholders overwhelmingly approved the issuance of additional shares of our common stock to acquire OmniAmerican Bancorp, Inc. at the shareholders meeting on October 14, 2014, and we are pleased that OmniAmerican's stockholders have also approved the acquisition. We look forward to strategically expanding Southside’s franchise in the growing and dynamic greater Fort Worth market area with the closing of the OmniAmerican merger once we receive final regulatory approvals.”

“On October 3, 2014, we announced that we intended to sell all of our subprime automobile loans purchased by our wholly-owned subsidiary, SFG Finance, LLC (“SFG”), as well as the repossessed assets SFG holds and we were endeavoring to complete such a sale in the fourth quarter of 2014. As a result of this decision, we transferred all SFG loans to loans held for sale at September 30, 2014 and recorded a write down on our investment in SFG. The transfer of $74.8 million of SFG loans, to held for sale and the write down of the Company’s investment in SFG at September 30, 2014, resulted in a loss of approximately $2.3 million, net of tax. Loan growth during the third quarter more than offset the transfer of loans at September 30, 2014 to loans held for sale. In addition, the transfer to held for sale of our SFG loans in September resulted in a reduction in interest income of approximately $685,000, net of tax.”

“Exiting the subprime automobile market, combined with our pending merger with OmniAmerican Bancorp, Inc., will enable us to focus our attention on integration and further organic growth in our commercial loan and commercial real estate loan portfolios. Continued cost containment efforts resulted in a decrease in total noninterest expense for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2014, which included approximately $465,000 and $1.1 million, respectively, of merger-related expenses associated with the pending acquisition of OmniAmerican Bancorp.”

Loans and Deposits

For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, total loans increased by $47.4 million, or 3.5%, when compared to December 31, 2013.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, other real estate loans increased $70.0 million, construction loans increased $52.9 million, municipal loans increased $10.8 million, commercial loans increased $4.7 million, 1-4 family real estate loans increased $4.4 million, and loans to individuals decreased $95.4 million. Loans to individuals decreased as a direct result of the subprime automobile loans transferred to held for sale.






Nonperforming assets decreased during the nine months of 2014 by $3.7 million, or 27.5%, to $9.9 million, or 0.29% of total assets, when compared to 0.39% at December 31, 2013, partially due to approximately $2.1 million in nonperforming subprime loans transferred into loans held for sale at September 30, 2014.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the allowance for loan losses decreased $5.5 million, or 28.9%, to $13.4 million, or 0.96% of total loans, when compared to 1.40% at December 31, 2013. The $5.5 million decrease was due to the subprime automobile loans transferred to held for sale. The decrease in the allowance as a percentage of total loans was due to the shift in the risk characteristics of the loan portfolio during the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, deposits, net of brokered deposits, decreased $53.3 million, or 2.2%, compared to December 31, 2013, due to the decrease in public fund deposits of $98.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

Net Interest Income for the Three Months

Net interest income decreased $921,000, or 3.5%, to $25.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014, when compared to $26.6 million for the same period in 2013. The decrease in net interest income was primarily the result of the decrease in average interest earning assets of $119.0 million, compared to the same period in 2013. For the three months ended September 30, 2014, our net interest spread increased to 3.65% when compared to 3.59% for the same period in 2013.  The net interest margin increased to 3.80% for the three months ended September 30, 2014 compared to 3.72% for the same period in 2013.  The reason for the increase in the net interest spread and margin was the increase in the yield on the interest earning assets which more than offset the slight increase in the yield on the interest bearing liabilities compared to the same period in 2013.

Net Interest Income for the Nine Months

Net interest income increased $8.5 million, or 11.6%, to $81.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, when compared to $73.0 million for the same period in 2013. For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, our net interest spread increased to 3.75% from 3.42% for the same period in 2013.  The net interest margin increased to 3.89% for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, compared to 3.58% for the same period in 2013.  

Net Income for the Three Months

Net income decreased $2.8 million, or 31.4%, for the three months ended September 30, 2014, to $6.1 million when compared to the same period in 2013. The decrease was primarily the result of an increase in provision for loan losses of $1.2 million due to the write down and transfer of SFG purchased loans to held for sale, the impairment charge of $2.2 million on our investment in SFG, a decrease in interest income of $1.0 million due to the transfer of SFG loans to held for sale and $465,000 of merger-related expense associated with the pending acquisition of OmniAmerican, which was partially offset by an increase in net gain on sale of available for sale securities of $1.3 million.

Net Income for the Nine Months

Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 decreased $4.2 million, or 14.6%, to $24.8 million, when compared to $29.0 million for the same period in 2013. This decrease was due to a decrease in net gain on sale of available for sale securities of $7.5 million, a $5.5 million increase in provision for loan losses and the impairment charge of $2.2 million on our investment in SFG. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in net interest income of $8.5 million, and decreases in noninterest expense of $1.1 million and provision for income tax expense of $2.1 million.

Noninterest expense decreased $1.1 million, or 1.8%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, compared to the same period in 2013, primarily due to decreases in FHLB prepayment fees, salary and employee benefit expense and occupancy expense, which were partially offset by an increase in professional fees associated with the pending OmniAmerican merger.

Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements of other than historical fact that are contained in this document and in other written material, press releases and oral statements issued by or on behalf of the Company, a bank holding company, may be considered to be “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of and subject to the protections of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, nor should they be relied upon as representing management’s views as of any subsequent date.  These statements may include words such as “expect,” “estimate,” “project,” “anticipate,” “appear,” “believe,” “could,” “should,” “may,” “likely,” “intend,” “probability,” “risk,” “target,” “objective,” “plans,” “potential,” and similar expressions.  Forward-looking statements are statements with respect to the Company’s beliefs, plans, expectations, objectives, goals, anticipations, assumptions, estimates, intentions and future performance and are subject to significant known and unknown risks and uncertainties, which could cause the Company's actual results to differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements.  For example, discussions about trends in asset quality, capital, liquidity, the pace of loan growth, earnings and certain market risk disclosures, including the impact of interest rate and other economic uncertainty, are based upon information presently available to management and are dependent on choices about key model characteristics and assumptions and are subject to various limitations.  By their nature, certain of the market risk disclosures are only estimates and could be materially different from what actually occurs in the future.  As a result, actual income gains and losses could materially differ from those that have been estimated. In addition, with respect to the pending acquisition of OmniAmerican Bancorp, including future financial and operating results, Southside’s and OmniAmerican’s plans, objectives, expectations and intentions, the expected timing of completion of the merger and other statements are not historical facts. Among the key factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements are the following: (i) the risk that a regulatory approval that may be required for the proposed mergers is not obtained or is obtained subject to conditions that are not anticipated; (ii) the risk that a condition to the closing of the mergers may not be satisfied; (iii) the timing to consummate the proposed merger; (iv) the risk that the businesses will not be integrated successfully; (v) the risk that the cost savings and any other synergies from the transaction may not be fully realized or may take longer to realize than expected; (vi) disruption from the transaction making it more difficult to maintain relationships with customers, employees or vendors; (vii) the diversion of management time on merger-related issues; and (viii) liquidity risk affecting Southside’s and OmniAmerican’s abilities to meet its obligations when they come due.
Additional information concerning the Company and its business, including additional factors that could materially affect the Company’s financial results, is included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 under “Forward-Looking Information” and Item 1A. “Risk Factors,” and in the Company’s other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  The Company disclaims any obligation to update any factors or to announce publicly the result of revisions to any of the forward-looking statements included herein to reflect future events or developments.
