BANCFIRST CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(1) | GENERAL |
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of BancFirst Corporation, Century Life Assurance Company, Council Oak Partners, LLC, Wilcox & Jones, Inc., and BancFirst and its subsidiaries (the Company). The operating subsidiaries of BancFirst are Council Oak Investment Corporation, Citibanc Insurance Agency, Inc., BancFirst Agency, Inc., Lenders Collection Corporation, BancFirst Community Development Corporation, Council Oak Real Estate, Inc. and PremierSource LLC. PremierSource LLC was sold in August 2006 and Century Life Assurance Company was sold effective October 2006. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Assets held in a fiduciary or agency capacity are not assets of the Company and, accordingly, are not included in the consolidated financial statements.
The unaudited interim financial statements contained herein reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to provide a fair statement of the financial position and results of operations of the Company for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. There have been no significant changes in the accounting policies of the Company since December 31, 2006, the date of the most recent annual report.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States inherently involves the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the related disclosures. These estimates relate principally to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, income taxes and the fair values of financial instruments. Such estimates and assumptions may change over time and actual amounts realized may differ from those reported.
(2) | RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS |
In June 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109. This interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This interpretation also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. This interpretation is expected to increase the relevance and comparability in financial reporting of income taxes because all tax positions accounted for in accordance with Statement 109 will be evaluated for recognition, derecognition, and measurement using consistent criteria. Finally, the disclosure provisions of this interpretation will provide more information about the uncertainty in income tax assets and liabilities. This interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006 and earlier adoption is encouraged. The Company adopted this new standard effective January 1, 2007. The Company has evaluated the effect of this pronouncement and determined that the adoption of this interpretation did not have a material effect on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
In September 2006, the FASB issued FAS No. 157 (FAS 157), Fair Value Measurements. FAS 157 is effective for all financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. FAS 157 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Adoption of FAS 157 is not expected to have a material impact on the Companys results of operations or financial condition.
On September 13, 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108 (SAB 108). SAB 108 provides interpretive guidance on how the effects of the carryover or reversal of prior year misstatements should be considered in quantifying a potential current year misstatement. Prior to SAB 108, companies might evaluate the materiality of financial-statement misstatements using either the income statement or balance sheet approach, with the income statement approach focusing on misstatements added in the current year, and the balance sheet approach focusing on the cumulative amount of misstatements present in the Companys balance sheet. Misstatements that would be material under one approach could be viewed as immaterial under another approach, and not be corrected. SAB 108 now requires that companies view financial statement
6
misstatements as material if they are material according to either the income statement or balance sheet approach. The Company adopted this new standard effective December 31, 2006. The Company has considered SAB 108 and determined that the adoption of SAB 108 did not have a material effect on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
In February 2007, the FASB issued FAS No. 159 (FAS 159), The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115. FAS 159 allows entities to irrevocably elect fair value as the initial and subsequent measurement attribute for certain financial assets and financial liabilities that are not otherwise required to be measured at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings as they occur. FAS 159 also requires entities to report those financial assets and financial liabilities measure at fair value in a manner that separates those reported fair values form the carrying amounts of similar assets and liabilities measured using another measurement attribute on the face of the statement of financial position. Lastly, FAS 159 establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to improve comparability between entities that elect different measurement attributes for similar assets and liabilities. FAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, with early adoption permitted if an entity also early adopts the provisions of FAS 157. The Company has not yet determined if, or to what extent, the Company will elect to use the fair value option to value financial assets and liabilities or the impact that the implementation of FAS 159 will have on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
(3) | RECENT DEVELOPMENTS; MERGERS, ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSALS |
In September 2005, the Company organized a Community Development Entity known as BancFirst Community Development Corporation and funded the entity with $1 million of equity. The entity was organized to make certain investments in low to moderate income communities and to apply for an allocation of New Markets Tax Credits designed to assist in the development of communities in accordance with the guidelines established for Community Development Entities. The Company did not receive an allocation of tax credits for the 2006 year, however the Company reapplied for an allocation for 2007 and expects a determination to be made in the fall of 2007.
In March 2006, the Company organized a new subsidiary known as Council Oak Real Estate, Inc. and funded the entity with $4.5 million of equity. The entity was organized to make certain investments in real estate.
On June 30, 2006, the Company entered into an agreement to sell its 50% ownership in PremierSource, LLC (PremierSource). The Company opted to sell this interest to consolidate its insurance sales platform into a single wholly-owned subsidiary. The Company did not have a controlling interest in PremierSource and accounted for the subsidiary on the equity method of accounting. The sale of PremierSource was completed during August 2006 and the Company had an investment in PremierSource of approximately $274,000 at the time of sale. The sale of PremierSource, including future revenue sharing payments, and the loss of future earnings from operating PremierSource did not have a significant impact on the results of the Companys operations for 2006 and is not expected to have a significant impact on the results of the Companys operations for 2007.
In August 2006, the Company completed the acquisition of First Bartlesville Bank (First Bartlesville), Bartlesville, Oklahoma for cash of approximately $5.6 million. First Bartlesville had total assets of approximately $46.6 million. As a result of the acquisition, First Bartlesville became a wholly-owned subsidiary of BancFirst Corporation and was merged into BancFirst in December 2006. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase. Accordingly, the effects of the acquisition are included in the Companys consolidated financial statements from the date of the acquisition forward. The acquisition did not have a material effect on the results of operations of the Company for 2006 or for the first quarter of 2007.
On September 6, 2006, the Company entered into an agreement to sell its 75% ownership in Century Life Assurance Company (Century Life) to American Underwriters Life Insurance Company. The Company decided to sell this subsidiary as the product line was not strategic for the Company. The effective date of the sale was October 1, 2006. The Company reported approximately $945,000 of income and $111,000 of net income for the third quarter of 2006, and a pre-tax gain on the sale approximating $640,000 during the fourth quarter of 2006. The resulting gain on the sale and the loss of future earnings from operating Century Life did not have a significant impact on the results of the Companys operations for 2006 or for the first quarter of 2007.
7
In November 2006, the Company announced its intent to exercise the optional prepayment terms of its 9.65% Junior Subordinated Debentures. The securities were redeemed effective January 15, 2007 for a redemption price equal to 104.825% of the aggregate $25,000,000 liquidation amount of the trust securities plus all accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. As a result of the prepayment, the Company incurred a loss of approximately $1.2 million after taxes at the time of the redemption. The loss reflects the premium paid and the acceleration of the unamortized issuance costs.
During the first quarter of 2007 the Company entered into an agreement to acquire Armor Assurance Company (Armor), an insurance agency in Muskogee, Oklahoma for cash of approximately $3.3 million and a $372,000 note payable in three equal annual installments. The transaction was consummated in April 2007. Armor had total assets of approximately $364,000. As a result of the acquisition, Armor was merged with the Companys existing property casualty agency, Wilcox & Jones, to form Wilcox, Jones & McGrath.

The Company held 169 and 107 debt securities available for sale that had unrealized gains as of March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. These securities had a market value totaling $88.6 million and $30.6 million, respectively, and unrealized gains totaling $1.4 million and $339,000, respectively. The Company also held 155 and 246 debt securities available for sale that had unrealized losses, respectively. These securities had a market value totaling $304.4 million and $347.6 million and unrealized losses totaling $3.7 million and $7.5 million, respectively. These unrealized losses occurred due to increases in interest rates and spreads and not as a result of a decline in credit quality. The Company has both the intent and ability to hold these debt securities until the unrealized losses are recovered.

The Companys loans are mostly to customers within Oklahoma and over half of the loans are secured by real estate. Credit risk on loans is managed through limits on amounts loaned to individual borrowers, underwriting standards and loan monitoring procedures. The amounts and types of collateral obtained to secure loans are based upon the Companys underwriting standards and managements credit evaluation. Collateral varies, but may include real estate, equipment, accounts receivable, inventory, livestock and securities. The Companys interest in collateral is secured through filing mortgages and liens, and in some cases, by possession of the collateral. The amount of estimated loss due to credit risk in the Companys loan portfolio is provided for in the allowance for loan losses. The amount of the allowance required to provide for all existing losses in the loan portfolio is an estimate based upon evaluations of loans, appraisals of collateral and other estimates which are subject to rapid change due to changing economic conditions and the economic prospects of borrowers. It is reasonably possible that a material change could occur in the estimated allowance for loan losses in the near term.

(8) | CAPITAL |
The Company is subject to risk-based capital guidelines issued by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. These guidelines are used to evaluate capital adequacy and involve both quantitative and qualitative evaluations of the Companys assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items calculated under regulatory practices. Failure to meet the minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory or discretionary actions by the regulatory agencies that could have a direct material effect on the Companys financial statements. The required minimums and the Companys respective ratios are shown below. The reduction in the ratios from December 31, 2006 was related to the early redemption of the trust preferred securities.

(9) | STOCK REPURCHASE PLAN |
In November 1999, the Company adopted a new Stock Repurchase Program (the SRP) authorizing management to repurchase up to 600,000 shares of the Companys common stock. The SRP was amended in May 2001 to increase the shares authorized to be purchased by 555,832 shares and was amended again in August 2002 to increase the number of shares authorized to be purchased by 364,530 shares. The SRP may be used as a means to increase earnings per share and return on equity, to purchase treasury stock for the exercise of stock options or for distributions under the Deferred Stock Compensation Plan, to provide liquidity for optionees to dispose of stock from exercises of their stock options, and to provide liquidity for shareholders wishing to sell their stock. The timing, price and amount of stock repurchases under the SRP may be determined by management and must be approved by the Companys Executive Committee. At March 31, 2007 there were 233,052 shares remaining that could be repurchased under the SRP. Below is a summary of the shares repurchased under the program.

Effective January 1, 2006 the Company adopted, on a modified prospective basis, the fair value provisions of FAS 123R. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and is based on certain assumptions including risk-free rate of return, dividend yield, stock price volatility, and the expected term. The fair value of each option is expensed over its vesting period.
For the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, the Company recorded share-based employee compensation expense of approximately $174,000 and $142,000 respectively, net of tax.
The Company will continue to amortize the remaining fair value of these stock options of approximately $3.2 million, net of tax, over the remaining vesting period of approximately seven years. Share-based employee compensation expense under the fair value method was measured using the following assumptions for the options granted:

Risk-free interest rate |
4.77 | % | 4.46 | % | ||

Stock price volatility |
27.02 | % | 16.00 | % | ||
Expected term |
10 | Yrs | 10 | Yrs |
The risk-free interest rate is determined by reference to the spot zero-coupon rate for the U.S. Treasury security with a maturity similar to the expected term of the options. The dividend yield is the expected yield for the expected term. The stock price volatility is estimated from the recent historical volatility of the Companys stock. The expected term is estimated from the historical option exercise experience.
(11) | COMPREHENSIVE INCOME |
The only component of comprehensive income reported by the Company is the unrealized gain or loss on securities available for sale.

The financial information for each business unit is presented on the basis used internally by management to evaluate performance and allocate resources. The Company utilizes a transfer pricing system to allocate the benefit or cost of funds provided or used by the various business units. Certain revenues related to other financial services are allocated to the banks whose customers receive the services and, therefor, are not reflected in the income for other financial services. Certain services provided by the support group to other business units, such as item processing, are allocated at rates approximating the cost of providing the services. Eliminations are adjustments to consolidate the business units and companies.

BANCFIRST CORPORATION
MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
SUMMARY
Net income for the first quarter of 2007 was $11.1 million compared to $10.9 for the first quarter of 2006. Diluted net income per share was $0.69 and $0.68 for the first quarter of 2007 and 2006, respectively. During the first quarter of 2007, the Company redeemed its 9.65% trust securities of its wholly-owned subsidiary, BFC Capital Trust I and incurred an after-tax expense of $1.2 million.
Net interest income totaled $36.4 million, an increase of $1.8 million, or 5.1%, over the first quarter of 2006. The increase resulted from the growth in earning assets of $168 million, reaching a total of $3.1 billion at March 31, 2007. The Companys net interest margin (on a tax equivalent basis) was 4.75% compared to 4.77% for the same period a year ago. The Companys provision for loan losses was a negative $31,000, a decrease of $712,000 compared to the same period a year ago. Continued strong asset quality combined with low charge-off experience necessitated a reduction in the loan loss reserve according to the Companys reserve formula. Noninterest income of $13.9 million was up 3.5% over the same period in 2006. Noninterest expense totaled $33.4 million versus $30.3 million for the first quarter of 2006, an increase of $3.1 million, or 10.3%. The Companys effective tax rate was 34.1% for the first quarter of 2007 compared to 36.1% in the first quarter of 2006.
Total assets at March 31, 2007 increased to $3.5 billion, up $103.1 million from December 31, 2006 and up $163.7 million from March 31, 2006. Total loans were $2.34 billion, up $10.5 million from December 31, 2006 and up $29.7 million from March 31, 2006. Total deposits were $3.07 billion, up $94.9 million from December 31, 2006 and up $134.2 million from March 31, 2006. Stockholders equity was $355 million at March 31, 2007, up $7 million from December 31, 2006 and up $44.8 million compared to March 31, 2006.
In September 2005, the Company organized a Community Development Entity known as BancFirst Community Development Corporation and funded the entity with $1 million of equity. The entity was organized to make certain investments in low to moderate income communities and to apply for an allocation of New Markets Tax Credits designed to assist in the development of communities in accordance with the guidelines established for Community Development Entities. The Company did not receive an allocation of tax credits for the 2006 year, however the Company reapplied for an allocation for 2007 and expects a determination to be made in the fall of 2007.
On June 30, 2006, the Company entered into an agreement to sell its 50% ownership in PremierSource, LLC (PremierSource). The Company opted to sell this interest to consolidate its insurance sales platform into a single wholly-owned subsidiary. The Company did not have a controlling interest in PremierSource and accounted for the subsidiary on the equity method of accounting. The sale of PremierSource was completed during August 2006 and the Company had an investment in PremierSource of approximately $274,000 at the time of sale. The sale of PremierSource, including future revenue sharing payments, and the loss of future earnings from operating PremierSource did not have a significant impact on the results of the Companys operations for 2006 and is not expected to have a significant impact on the results of the Companys operations for 2007.
In August 2006, the Company completed the acquisition of First Bartlesville Bank (First Bartlesville), Bartlesville, Oklahoma for cash of approximately $5.6 million. First Bartlesville had total assets of approximately $46.6 million. As a result of the acquisition, First Bartlesville became a wholly-owned subsidiary of BancFirst Corporation and was merged into BancFirst in December 2006. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase. Accordingly, the effects of the acquisition are included in the Companys consolidated financial statements from the date of the acquisition forward. The acquisition did not have a material effect on the results of operations of the Company for 2006 or for the first quarter of 2007.
On September 6, 2006, the Company entered into an agreement to sell its 75% ownership in Century Life Assurance Company (Century Life) to American Underwriters Life Insurance Company. The Company decided to sell this subsidiary as the product line

was not strategic for the Company. The effective date of the sale was October 1, 2006. The Company reported approximately $945,000 of income and $111,000 of net income for the third quarter of 2006, and a pre-tax gain on the sale approximating $640,000 during the fourth quarter of 2006. The resulting gain on the sale and the loss of future earnings from operating Century Life did not have a significant impact on the results of the Companys operations for 2006 or for the first quarter of 2007.
In November 2006, the Company announced its intent to exercise the optional prepayment terms of its 9.65% Junior Subordinated Debentures. The securities were redeemed effective January 15, 2007 for a redemption price equal to 104.825% of the aggregate $25 million liquidation amount of the trust securities plus all accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. As a result of the prepayment, the Company incurred a loss of approximately $1.2 million after taxes at the time of the redemption. The loss reflects the premium paid and the acceleration of the unamortized issuance costs.
During the first quarter of 2007 the Company entered into an agreement to acquire Armor Assurance Company (Armor), an insurance agency in Muskogee, Oklahoma for cash of approximately $3.3 million and a $372,000 note payable in three equal annual installments. The transaction was consummated in April 2007. Armor had total assets of approximately $364,000. As a result of the acquisition, Armor was merged with the Companys existing property casualty agency, Wilcox & Jones, to form Wilcox, Jones & McGrath.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net interest income for the first quarter of 2007 was $36.4 million, up $1.8 million from the first quarter of 2006. The increase in the net interest income was due to growth in total earning assets of $168 million, reaching a total of $3.1 billion at quarter end. The net interest margin in 2007 decreased slightly to 4.75% from 4.77% for the first quarter of 2006. The slight decrease in the net interest margin was a result of higher costs of interest bearing liabilities.
The Company provided a negative $31,000 for loan losses in the first quarter of 2007, compared to a positive $681,000 for the same period of 2006. Continued strong asset quality combined with low charge-off experience necessitated a reduction in the loan loss reserve according to the Companys reserve formula. Net loan charge-offs were $176,000 for the first quarter of 2007, compared to $409,000 for the first quarter of 2006. The net charge-offs represent an annualized rate of 0.03% of average total loans for the first quarter of 2007 compared to 0.07% for the first quarter of 2006.
Noninterest income for the first quarter of 2007 increased $473,000 compared to the first quarter of 2006, due to an increase in trust, service charges, and electronic banking revenues which are included in other income. Noninterest expense increased $3.1 million compared to the first quarter of 2006. Noninterest expense included a $1.9 million one time pre-tax expense for the early redemption of the trust preferred securities. The remaining increase of approximately $1.2 million was due in part to the opening of five new branches within the last six months. Income tax expense decreased $413,000 compared to the first quarter of 2006. The effective tax rate on income before taxes was 34.1%, compared to 36.1% for the first quarter of 2006. The reduction in the Companys 2007 tax rate was due in part to tax credits from certain loan transactions that reduced the Companys income taxes for the first quarter of 2007.
FINANCIAL POSITION
The aggregate of cash and due from banks, interest-bearing deposits with banks, and federal funds sold increased $277 million from December 31, 2006, and $109 million from March 31, 2006. These increases were mainly from deposit growth in late 2006 and early 2007.
Total securities decreased $2.1 million compared to December 31, 2006 and increased $2.5 million compared to March 31, 2006. The size of the Companys securities portfolio is a function of liquidity management and excess funds available for investment. The Company has maintained a very liquid securities portfolio to provide funds for loan growth. The net unrealized gain on securities available for sale, before taxes, was $1.45 million at the end of the first quarter of 2007, compared to an unrealized gain of $154,000 at December 31, 2006 and an unrealized loss of $6.12 million at March 31, 2006. The average taxable equivalent yield on the securities portfolio for the first quarter of 2007 increased to 4.74% from 4.67% for the same quarter of 2006.
17
Total loans increased $103 million from December 31, 2006 and increased $164 million from March 31, 2006. The increase compared to year end 2006 was due primarily to internal loan growth. The increase from first quarter of 2006 was due to internal growth and the First Bartlesville acquisition. The allowance for loan losses decreased $207,000 from year-end 2006 and $296,000 from the first quarter of 2006. The allowance as a percentage of total loans was 1.18%, 1.19% and 1.20% at March 31, 2007, December 31, 2006 and March 31, 2006, respectively. The allowance to nonperforming and restructured loans at the same dates was 221.90%, 231.41% and 303.31%, respectively.
Nonperforming and restructured loans totaled $12.4 million at March 31, 2007, compared to $12.0 million at December 31, 2006 and $10.2 million at March 31, 2006. The ratio of nonperforming and restructured loans to total loans for the same periods was 0.53%, 0.51% and 0.40%, respectively. The level of nonperforming loans and loan losses may rise over time as a result of economic and credit cycles.
Total deposits increased $94.9 million compared to December 31, 2006, and $134.2 million compared to March 31, 2006 due to internal growth and the acquisition of First Bartlesville. The Companys deposit base continues to be comprised substantially of core deposits, with large denomination certificates of deposit being only 8.76% of total deposits at March 31, 2007, compared to 8.70% at December 31, 2006 and 8.75% at March 31, 2006.
Short-term borrowings increased $23.8 million from December 31, 2006, and $17.0 million from March 31, 2006. Fluctuations in short-term borrowings are a function of federal funds purchased from correspondent banks, customer demand for repurchase agreements and liquidity needs of the bank.
Long-term borrowings decreased $469,000 from year-end 2006 and $2.48 million from the first quarter of 2006. The decrease since the first quarter and year end of 2006 was due to scheduled principal payments. The Company uses these borrowings primarily to match-fund long-term fixed-rate loans.
Stockholders equity increased $7.1 million from year-end 2006 and $44.8 million from the first quarter of 2006, due to accumulated earnings. Average stockholders equity to average assets for the first quarter of 2007 was 10.18%, compared to 9.50% for the first quarter of 2006. The Companys leverage ratio and total risk-based capital ratio were 9.79% and 13.95%, respectively, at March 31, 2007, well in excess of the regulatory minimums.
