PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 18 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Sovereign Bancorp, Inc. ("Sovereign") , parent company of Sovereign Bank ("Bank"), today reported third quarter 2005 net income in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles of $181 million, or $.48 per diluted share, as compared to $83 million, or $.24 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2004. Net income in the third quarter of 2004 included merger and integration charges related to the Seacoast Financial Services Corporation acquisition of $18.2 million, after-tax, or $.05 per share, and a debt extinguishment charge of $42.6 million after-tax, or $.12 per share.
For the quarter ended September 30, 2005, Sovereign's reported operating/cash earnings increased 25% to $197 million, or $.50 per diluted share, which excluded $11.9 million, or $.03 per share, related to amortization of intangible assets, as compared to $158 million, or $.46 per diluted share, a year ago, which excluded the above mentioned merger and integration and debt extinguishment charges and $14.6 million, or $.04 per share, related to amortization of intangible assets. Effective in the fourth quarter of 2004, Sovereign combined its definition of operating earnings and cash earnings and the related per share amounts into one number which excludes amortization of core deposit intangibles, in addition to special items. Since some of these special items are difficult to predict and make the results of normal operations less clear, management believes the presentation of financial measures excluding the impact of these items provides useful supplemental information in evaluating the operating results of Sovereign's core businesses. A reconciliation of net income to operating/cash earnings, as well as the related earnings per share amounts, is included in a later section of this release.
Sovereign's net income for the third quarter of 2005 produced annualized returns on average assets and average shareholders' equity of 1.21% and 13.05%, respectively. Operating/cash earnings for the third quarter of 2005 produced annualized operating/cash return on average assets and average tangible shareholders' equity of 1.27% and 28.58%, respectively.
Commenting on results for the third quarter of 2005, Jay S. Sidhu, Sovereign's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, "We are pleased to show improvement in our core competencies this quarter. Average core deposits grew 8% annualized from second quarter levels, while total deposits increased 10%. While remaining disciplined in our underwriting, commercial loan growth remained very strong at 17%, annualized, and our consumer loan portfolio increased 5%, annualized, from second quarter levels. Credit quality continues to be strong, as annualized net charge-offs were down slightly from second quarter levels to 18 basis points. We repurchased eight million shares of our common stock during the quarter, bringing our year-to-date repurchases through quarter-end to 20 million shares," concluded Sidhu.
Net Interest Income and Margin
Sovereign reported net interest income of $396 million for the third quarter of 2005, an increase of $33 million, or 9%, compared to the third quarter of 2004. Sovereign's average loan portfolio increased during the third quarter by $990 million to $42.3 billion, reflecting an annualized growth rate of 10%. Included in period-end commercial loan balances was the effect of a securitization of $832 million of dealer floor plan loans, which was completed on September 30, 2005. Sovereign's average deposits increased $908 million during the quarter, reflecting an annualized growth rate of 10%. Average core deposits (excludes time deposits) increased during the quarter by approximately $557 million to $27.3 billion, reflecting an annualized growth rate of 8%, with the majority of the growth in zero- or lower-cost checking deposits.
Net interest margin was 3.04% for the third quarter of 2005, compared to 3.17% in the third quarter of 2004. "The prolonged flatness of the yield curve facing the entire industry has continued to put pressure on our net interest margin in the near-term. As we believe this interest rate environment may persist in the near-term, we have taken several steps and are currently evaluating several options to stabilize or improve our net interest margin going forward," stated Mark R. McCollom, Sovereign's Chief Financial Officer. "Loan yields on our commercial loan portfolio expanded nicely during the quarter, up 35 basis points from second quarter levels, while total deposit costs (including non-interest bearing DDA) increased 25 basis points during the same period."
Non-Interest Income
Consumer and commercial banking fees again reached all-time highs during the quarter, up 3% and 20%, respectively, from second quarter 2005 levels and 19% and 35%, respectively, from a year ago. Consumer banking fees increased by $12.2 million to $75.0 million, or 19%, compared to the same period in 2004, primarily driven by growth in loan and deposit fees. Commercial banking fees increased by $11.0 million to $42.7 million, or 35%, over the same period a year ago, primarily driven by growth in loan fees and cash management fees as well as a gain of $3.9 million on the previously mentioned dealer floor plan securitization completed during the third quarter. Excluding this gain, commercial banking fees were up 9% from last quarter and 22% from a year ago.
Mortgage banking revenues for the quarter were $29.0 million, compared to $21.5 million last quarter and a loss of $4.1 million in the same quarter a year ago. Mortgage banking revenue increased $7.4 million from second quarter levels reflecting sales of mortgage and home equity loans and a reversal of mortgage servicing right impairment reserves of $6.8 million. Mortgage banking results are detailed in the financial tables attached to this release. As of September 30, 2005, mortgage servicing rights, net of reserves of $3.9 million, were $87.6 million and our servicing portfolio was $7.3 billion, with a capitalized cost of 121 basis points.
Non-Interest Expense
G&A expenses for the quarter were $277 million, including acquisitions, as compared to $238 million a year ago. On a linked quarter basis, G&A expenses were up $3.5 million mostly as a result of increased marketing efforts. "Year-to-date G&A expenses continue to be favorable to our plan. Operating leverage remains positive, resulting in a 157 basis points improvement in our efficiency ratio from a year ago. Our efficiency ratio was 48.9% in the third quarter of 2005," commented McCollom.
On a GAAP basis, Sovereign's effective tax rate was 24.1% in the third quarter; on an operating basis, it was 24.8%.
Asset Quality
Sovereign continued to see improvement in net charge-offs during the third quarter of 2005. Annualized net charge-offs decreased to .18% of average loans at September 30, 2005, compared to .19% at June 30, 2005 and .25% at September 30, 2004. Non-performing assets ("NPAs") increased $7.9 million during the quarter to $181 million at September 30, 2005. NPAs to total assets were unchanged from second quarter levels at .29%. Sovereign's provision for loan losses was $20.0 million this quarter compared to $22.0 million in the second quarter and $25.0 million in the third quarter of 2004. The allowance for loan losses to total loans decreased slightly to 1.02% at September 30, 2005, as compared to 1.07% at June 30, 2005 and 1.15% at September 30, 2004. The allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans now stands at 257%, as compared to 272% at June 30, 2005 and 276% at September 30, 2004.
Capital
During the quarter, Sovereign repurchased eight million shares under a previously announced repurchase program. Year-to-date Sovereign has repurchased 20 million shares, or more than 5% of fully diluted shares outstanding. Sovereign's Tier 1 leverage ratio was 6.48% at September 30, 2005. Tangible common equity to tangible assets, excluding other comprehensive income ("OCI"), was 4.84% and including OCI was 4.54%. The equity to assets ratio was 9.00% at September 30, 2005. Sovereign Bank's Tier 1 leverage ratio was 6.58% and the Bank's risk-based capital ratio was 10.33% at September 30, 2005. "Management remains committed to its capital allocation discipline. In addition to share repurchases during the quarter, the Board of Directors also declared a 50% increase to our cash dividend," commented McCollom.
Looking Ahead
"In closing, we were pleased with third quarter loan and deposit growth trends, credit quality continues to be strong, revenues are growing at a faster pace than expenses resulting in positive operating leverage, and we continue to generate and deploy $200 million of tangible common equity per quarter. Year-to-date we have returned 98% of net income to our shareholders through cash dividends and share repurchases. The interest rate environment remains a challenge, and we acknowledge it is unlikely we will achieve our stretch goal of $2.00 in operating/cash earnings per share for 2005. However, we are currently achieving that run rate with $.50 of operating/cash earnings per share in the third quarter. We remain very focused on maintaining our interest rate, credit risk and capital management discipline through this difficult interest rate environment and on achieving an operating earnings growth rate of 10% or higher over the long-term," Sidhu concluded.
Based upon our October 17 stock price of $21.55, Sovereign is trading at a P/E of 11.8x analysts mean 2005 estimate and 136% of current book value. The book value per share at September 30, 2005 was $15.81.

Note:
This press release contains financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). Sovereign's management uses the non-GAAP measure of Operating/Cash Earnings, and the related per share amount, in their analysis of the company's performance. This measure, as used by Sovereign, adjusts net income determined in accordance with GAAP to exclude the effects of special items, including significant gains or losses that are unusual in nature or are associated with acquiring and integrating businesses, and certain non-cash charges. Operating/cash earnings for the first, second and third quarters of 2005 represent net income adjusted for the after-tax effects of merger-related and integration charges, certain restructuring charges and the amortization of intangible assets. Since certain of these items and their impact on Sovereign's performance are difficult to predict, management believes presentations of financial measures excluding the impact of these items provide useful supplemental information in evaluating the operating results of Sovereign's core businesses. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for net income determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies.
This press release contains statements of Sovereign's strategies, plans, and objectives, as well as estimates of future operating results for 2005 for Sovereign Bancorp, Inc. as well as estimates of financial condition, operating and cash efficiencies and revenue generation. These statements and estimates constitute forward-looking statements (within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995), which involve significant risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from the results discussed in these forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such a difference include, but are not limited to, general economic conditions, changes in interest rates, deposit flows, loan demand, real estate values and competition; changes in accounting principles, policies, or guidelines; changes in legislation or regulation; Sovereign's ability in connection with any acquisition to complete such acquisition and to successfully integrate assets, liabilities, customers, systems and management personnel Sovereign acquires into its operations and to realize expected cost savings and revenue enhancements within expected time frame; the possibility that expected one-time merger-related charges are materially greater than forecasted or that final purchase price allocations based on the fair value of acquired assets and liabilities and related adjustments to yield and/or amortization of the acquired assets and liabilities at any acquisition date are materially different from those forecasted; other economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory, and technological factors affecting the Company's operations, integrations, pricing, products and services; and acts of God, including natural disasters.
Sovereign Bancorp is followed by several market analysts.

NOTES:
(1) Effective in the fourth quarter of 2004, Sovereign adopted EITF 04-8
"Accounting Issues Related to Certain Features of Contingently
Convertible Debt and the Effect on Diluted Earnings per Share." This
EITF requires the potential dilution from contingently convertible
debt be included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share
upon the issuance of the debt and that the after-tax impact of the
interest expense on this debt be added back to net income for
earnings per share purposes. Sovereign issued $800 million of
contingently convertible trust preferred equity income redeemable
securities in the first quarter of 2004. Prior period earnings per
share were required to be restated. We have excluded the impact of
this pronouncement in our calculation of 2004 operating/cash earnings
per share.
(2) Operating/cash earnings represent net income excluding the after-tax
effects of special items, such as significant gains or losses that
are unusual in nature or are associated with acquiring or integrating
businesses, losses on the early retirement of debt, other than
temporary impairment charges on Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac preferred
equity securities, amortization of intangible assets, and certain
restructuring charges. Additionally, for 2004, operating/cash
earnings excludes the impact of EITF 04-8. See page I and J for a
reconciliation of GAAP and Non-GAAP measures.
(3) Efficiency ratio equals general and administrative expense as a
percentage of total revenue, defined as the sum of net interest
income and total fees and other income before securities
transactions.
(4) Book value equals stockholders' equity at period-end divided by
common shares outstanding.

RECONCILIATION OF OPERATING/CASH EARNINGS TO REPORTED EARNINGS
(unaudited)
Operating/cash earnings for 2005 represents net income adjusted for the after-tax effects of merger-related and integration charges, certain restructuring charges and the amortization of intangible assets. Operating/cash earnings for 2004 represent net income adjusted for the after-tax effects of merger-related and integration charges and the loss on early extinguishment of debt, the fourth quarter adoption of EITF 04-8, other-than-temporary non-cash impairment charges on Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac preferred equity securities and the amortization of intangible assets. Management's operating/cash earnings goal for 2005 excludes the after-tax effects of merger-related and integration charges, certain restructuring charges and the amortization of intangible assets. The table below reconciles our GAAP earnings to operating/cash earnings.

(1) Effective in the fourth quarter of 2004, Sovereign adopted EITF 04-8 "Accounting Issues Related to Certain Features of Contingently Convertible Debt and the Effect on Diluted Earnings per Share." This EITF requires the potential dilution from contingently convertible debt be included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share upon the issuance of the debt and that the after-tax impact of the interest expense on this debt be added back to net income for earnings per share purposes. Sovereign issued $800 million of contingently convertible trust preferred equity income redeemable securities in the first quarter of 2004. Prior period earnings per share were restated. We have excluded the impact of this pronouncement in our calculation of 2004 operating/cash earnings per share, however it is included in our calculation for 2005 operating/cash earnings per share.
