PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

      This summary highlights selected information about us and the offering that is contained elsewhere in this prospectus. You should read this summary together with the entire prospectus, including the more detailed information in our consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this prospectus, as well as the other documents to which we refer you. Except as otherwise indicated by the context, references in this prospectus to “we,” “our,” the “issuer” or “TCBI” are to the combined business of Texas Capital Bancshares, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Texas Capital Bank, N.A.

THE COMPANY

      Through our bank, Texas Capital Bank, we provide a wide range of banking services, primarily to the middle market business and high net worth individual segments of the Texas economy. Since we commenced operations in December 1998, our bank has demonstrated substantial growth in assets, deposits and profitability. As of June 30, 2003, we had approximately $2.0 billion in assets, $1.3 billion in total loans, $1.3 billion in deposits and $132 million in stockholders’ equity. We currently operate eight banking centers in our core markets, which are the greater Dallas/ Fort Worth, Austin and San Antonio metropolitan areas. We anticipate opening a new banking center to support and expand our operations in the Houston metropolitan area in September 2003. In addition, we also operate BankDirect, an Internet banking division of our bank, to attract consumer deposits for funding purposes and to provide our BankDirect customers with access to banking services on a 24 hours-a-day/ 7 days-a-week basis.

Background

      In March 1998, our founders organized TCBI to serve as a new holding company for an independent bank oriented to the needs of the Texas marketplace. Our founders have extensive Texas banking experience and strong community and business relationships in our core markets. Based on their assessment of the Texas banking environment, our founders determined that middle market businesses (which we generally define as businesses with annual revenues between $5 million and $250 million) and high net worth individuals (which we generally define as individuals with net worth in excess of $1 million) were not being well-served by the banks that emerged from the Texas banking crisis of the late 1980s. They concluded that there was an opportunity to reestablish an independent, Texas-headquartered, -managed and -focused bank with sufficient capital and other resources and expertise to serve these clients.

      We commenced banking operations under the Texas Capital Bank name in December 1998. Our predecessor bank, Resource Bank N.A., had commenced limited operations in October 1997. At the time of our acquisition of Resource Bank, we raised approximately $80 million in initial equity capital in a private offering, which we believe is the largest amount of start-up capital ever raised by a national bank. We believed this capital was necessary to service our target markets, particularly by allowing us to originate and retain loans of a size and type that would appeal to our targeted market segment. We also began recruiting a team of senior executives with extensive experience in the Texas banking industry and expanding our operations in our targeted core markets. We also focused on developing a broader range of funding sources, including raising deposits through BankDirect and attracting cost-effective, stable deposits from our commercial banking customers.

      We have grown substantially in both asset size and profitability since our formation. Our assets increased at annual rates of 357%, 122%, 28% and 54% in 1999, 2000, 2001 and 2002, respectively. Our total loans increased at annual rates of 1,952%, 176%, 44% and 24% in 1999, 2000, 2001 and 2002, respectively. Over the same period, our operating results have improved from a net loss of $9.3 million and $16.5 million in 1999 and 2000, respectively, reflecting in large part our start-up and expansion costs, to profits of $5.8 million and $7.3 million in 2001 and 2002, respectively, and $6.9 million for the first six months of 2003. The growth in our profitability is based largely on our success in developing a portfolio with an increasing amount of higher yielding commercial loans to local businesses and individuals, while managing our funding costs and non-interest expenses.

The Texas Market

      We believe that a key factor in our ability to achieve our business strategy and financial goals and to create stockholder value is the attractiveness of the Texas market. We believe the Texas market has favorable demographic and economic characteristics. In addition, we believe that the changes in the Texas banking market since the late 1980s have created an underserved market of Texas-based middle market businesses and high net worth individuals that we can successfully target.

      Texas is the second most populous state in the country with an estimated population in 2002 of approximately 21.6 million. In terms of population, Texas is expected to be among the ten fastest growing states in the U.S. over the period from 2002 to 2007, and the third fastest growing state of the ten most populous states over that period. In addition, average 2002 per capita income of $27,069 in our target markets (the five largest metropolitan markets in the state of Texas) was above the U.S. average and is expected to grow faster than any of the ten largest metropolitan statistical areas in the U.S. (excluding Dallas and Houston, which are two of our target markets and are among the ten largest metropolitan statistical areas in the U.S.) for the period 2002 to 2007. The Texas banking markets have grown over the past five years, with statewide deposits increasing from $194.3 billion in 1997 to $256.6 billion in 2002. The Texas economy has become substantially less dependent upon energy-related businesses than it was prior to the energy industry crisis of the late 1980s and includes a greater diversification among industries such as services, technology and manufacturing. Accordingly, we expect that the local Texas markets will grow faster than most in the U.S. with less volatility than experienced in the past, providing opportunities for above-average growth and potential profitability for us. Although current estimates of future economic and demographic data may indicate a favorable trend, there is no assurance that the actual results will follow these trends, especially as the Texas market may be subject to unexpected economic downturns.

      The Texas banking market is currently characterized by the dominance of large out-of-state banking organizations that entered the state following the economic crisis that affected Texas during the 1980s. Today, Texas’ five largest banking organizations by deposits are headquartered outside of Texas and approximately 55% of the total deposits in the state are controlled by out-of-state organizations. We believe that many middle market companies and high net worth individuals are interested in banking with a company headquartered in, and with decision-making authority based in, Texas and with established Texas bankers who have the expertise to act as trusted advisors. These customers are attractive to us because we believe that, if we serve them properly, we will be able to establish long-term relationships and provide multiple products to them, enhancing our overall profitability. Our banking centers have been built around experienced bankers with lending expertise in the specific industries found in their market areas, allowing for responsive, personalized service.

Our Management

      We have assembled an executive management team with extensive experience in the Texas banking industry.

  •  Joseph M. (“Jody”) Grant (64) — Mr. Grant has been our Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer since we commenced operations in 1998. In addition, he currently serves as the Chairman of the Board of our bank. Prior to co-founding our company, Mr. Grant served as Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and a member of the board of directors of Electronic Data Systems Corporation from 1990 to March 1998. From 1986 to 1989, Mr. Grant had served as the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Texas American Bancshares, Inc.
 
  •  George F. Jones, Jr. (59) — Mr. Jones has served as the Chief Executive Officer and President of our bank since its inception in December 1998. Mr. Jones was also a founder of Resource Bank, our predecessor bank. From 1993 until 1995, Mr. Jones served as an Executive Vice President of Comerica Bank, which acquired NorthPark National Bank in 1993. From 1986 until Comerica’s acquisition of NorthPark in 1993, Mr. Jones served as either NorthPark’s President or President and Chief Executive Officer.

2


 

  •  C. Keith Cargill (50) — Mr. Cargill has served as an Executive Vice President and the Chief Lending Officer of our bank since its inception in December 1998. Mr. Cargill has more than 20 years of banking experience. He began his banking career at Texas American Bank in 1977, where he was the manager of the national corporate lending division of the flagship bank in Fort Worth. In 1985, Mr. Cargill became President and Chief Executive Officer of Texas American Bank/ Riverside, Ft. Worth. In 1989, Mr. Cargill joined NorthPark National Bank as an Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer. When NorthPark was acquired by Comerica Bank in 1993, Mr. Cargill joined Comerica as Senior Vice President and middle market banking manager.

      In addition to these three executive officers, we have attracted a number of other experienced Texas bankers to help build and grow our company. It is an integral component of our ongoing strategy to attract high quality, experienced bankers with long track records of serving middle market and private banking clientele in our targeted banking markets in Texas.

Chief Financial Officer

      In July 2003, Peter B. Bartholow agreed to become our Chief Financial Officer. We expect that he will begin serving in that capacity on October 6, 2003. Mr. Bartholow most recently served as a Managing Partner of Hat Creek Partners, a Dallas, Texas private equity firm. Prior to joining Hat Creek Partners, he was Vice President of Corporate Finance for EDS and also served on A.T. Kearney’s Board of Directors during that time.

Strategy

      Our main objective is to take advantage of expansion opportunities while operating efficiently, providing individualized customer service and maximizing profitability. To achieve this, we seek to implement the following strategies:

  •  Target the attractive middle market business and high net worth individual market segments;
 
  •  Focus our business development efforts on the key major metropolitan markets in Texas;
 
  •  Grow our loan and deposit base in our existing markets by hiring additional experienced Texas bankers and opening select, strategically-located banking centers;
 
  •  Improve our financial performance through the efficient management of our infrastructure and capital base;
 
  •  Continue to use BankDirect as a way to diversify our funding sources by attracting retail deposits on a nationwide basis; and
 
  •  Expand our geographic reach and business mix by hiring qualified local bankers, establishing select banking locations and completing selective acquisitions in new markets.

Expansion in Houston Market

      In September 2003, we anticipate that we will open a new banking center in Houston. We believe this new banking center will allow us to significantly expand our current operations in Houston. To assist our expansion in Houston, we have also hired several senior, experienced bankers who we believe will significantly expand our relationships in important sectors of the Houston marketplace. In addition, we intend to hire sufficient support personnel to offer a complete range of banking services.

(1)  The consolidated statement of operations data and consolidated balance sheet data presented above for the six month period ended June 30, 2002 and for the three most recent fiscal years ended December 31 have been derived from our audited consolidated financial statements, which have been audited by Ernst & Young LLP, independent auditors. The historical results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected in any future period. The unaudited operating results for the six month period ended June 30, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be achieved for the full year. Interim results reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations and balances for the interim periods presented. Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.
 
(2)  During the six months ended June 30, 2003, net income included the impact of reversing our deferred tax asset valuation allowance of $5.9 million, $6.3 million in penalties related to unwinding repurchase agreements prior to maturity and approximately $250,000 in separation expense related to the resignation of a senior officer. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, income per share excluding the impact of reversing the valuation allowance, unwinding penalties and separation expense would have been $0.25, on a basic basis, and $0.25, on a diluted basis. During the year ended December 31, 2002, net income included $1.2 million in IPO expenses recognized as our offering was postponed. For the year ended December 31, 2002, income per share excluding these IPO expenses would have been $0.37, on a basic basis, and $0.36, on a diluted basis. Income per share excluding the impact of reversing the valuation allowance, unwinding penalties and separation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and income per share excluding IPO expenses for the year ended December 31, 2002 are non-GAAP financial measures. See below for an explanation of why we believe these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to management and investors and a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to income per share, which is the most directly comparable financial measure presented in accordance with GAAP.
 
(3)  Amounts for December 31, 2001 are adjusted to reflect the conversion of 753,301 shares of preferred stock outstanding on such date into 1,506,602 shares of common stock, assuming automatic conversion of the preferred stock. Amounts for June 30, 2002, December 31, 2002 and June 30, 2003 are adjusted to reflect the conversion of 1,057,142 shares of preferred stock outstanding on such date into 2,114,284 shares of common stock, assuming automatic conversion of the preferred stock.
 
(4)  Represents non-interest expense divided by the sum of net interest income and non-interest income for the periods shown. During the six months ended June 30, 2003, non-interest expense included $6.3 million in penalties related to unwinding repurchase agreements prior to maturity and approximately $250,000 in separation expense related to the resignation of a senior officer. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, the efficiency ratio excluding the unwinding penalties and separation expense would have been 64.70%. During the year ended December 31, 2002, non-interest expense included $1.2 million in IPO expenses recognized as our offering was postponed. For the year ended December 31, 2002, the efficiency ratio excluding the IPO expenses would have been 67.19%. The efficiency ratio excluding unwinding penalties and separation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and the efficiency ratio excluding IPO expenses for the year ended December 31, 2002 are non-GAAP financial measures. See below for an explanation of why we believe these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to management and investors and a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the efficiency ratio, which is the most directly comparable financial measure presented in accordance with GAAP.
 
(5)  During the six months ended June 30, 2003, the ratio of non-interest expense to average assets included $6.3 million in penalties related to unwinding repurchase agreements prior to maturity and approximately $250,000 in separation expense related to the resignation of a senior officer. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, the annualized ratio of non-interest expense to average assets excluding the unwinding penalties and separation expense would have been 2.11%. During the year ended December 31, 2002, the ratio of non-interest expense to average assets included $1.2 million in IPO expenses recognized as our offering was postponed. For the year ended December 31, 2002, the ratio of non-interest expense to average assets excluding the IPO expenses would have been 2.50%. The ratio of non-interest expense to average assets excluding unwinding penalties and separation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and the ratio of non-interest expense to average assets excluding IPO expenses for the year ended December 31, 2002 are non-GAAP financial measures.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

      The footnotes to the Summary Consolidated Financial Information presented above, the footnotes to the Selected Consolidated Financial Data, and portions of “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” include non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are:

  •  for the six months ended June 30, 2003:

  •  income per share (basic and diluted) excluding the impact of reversing the valuation allowance, unwinding penalties and separation expense;
 
  •  efficiency ratio excluding unwinding penalties and separation expense; and
 
  •  ratio of non-interest expense to average assets excluding unwinding penalties and separation expense;

  •  for the year ended December 31, 2002:

  •  income per share (basic and diluted) excluding IPO expenses;
 
  •  efficiency ratio excluding IPO expenses; and
 
  •  ratio of non-interest expense to average assets excluding IPO expenses.

      The impact of reversing the valuation allowance reflects the reversal of our deferred tax asset valuation allowance of $5.9 million. The unwinding penalties reflect $6.3 million in penalties related to unwinding repurchase agreements prior to maturity. The separation expense reflects approximately $250,000 in separation expense related to the resignation of a senior officer. The IPO expenses reflect $1.2 million in IPO expenses recognized as our offering was postponed.

      Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors and to management because they provide additional information that more closely reflects our intrinsic operating performance and growth. Reversal of the entire valuation allowance was based on our assessment of our ability to generate earnings to allow the deferred tax assets to be realized which is supported by our current earnings trends. We unwound certain repurchase agreements, incurring the unwinding penalties, in order to take advantage of historical lows in interest rates, which had decreased on similar repurchase agreements by approximately 1.4% since the time we entered into the original repurchase agreements. Although we have experienced employee separations in the past, this was the first separation with an executive who had entered into an employee agreement with us. We currently have only three other employees with employment agreements. Since we have not had any reversals of valuation allowances, unwinding penalties or separation expenses related to employees who have employment agreements in our operating history, and because expenses related to the initial public offering will not recur once the offering is completed, we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors and to management to understand the development of our income per share results, efficiency ratio and ratio of non-interest expense to average assets since our founding and to help in comparing our intrinsic operating performance in different periods. Management also uses these measures internally to evaluate our performance and manage our operations. These measurements should not be regarded as a replacement for corresponding GAAP measures.

      The following tables reconcile each of the non-GAAP financial measures described above to the most directly comparable financial measure presented in accordance with GAAP.

RISK FACTORS

      Before you invest in our common stock, you should understand the high degree of risk involved. You should consider carefully the following risks and other information in this prospectus, including our financial statements and related notes, before you decide to purchase shares of our common stock. The following risks and uncertainties are not the only ones we face. There may be additional risks that we do not currently know of or that we currently deem immaterial based on the information available to us. If any of these risks actually occur, our business, financial condition and operating results could be adversely affected. As a result, the trading price of our common stock could decline, perhaps significantly and you could lose part or all of your investment.

Risks Related to Our Business

Our business strategy includes significant growth plans, and if we fail to manage our growth effectively as we pursue our expansion strategy, it could negatively affect our operations

      We intend to develop our business by pursuing a significant growth strategy. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in significant growth stages of development. In order to execute our growth strategy successfully, we must, among other things:

  •  identify and expand into suitable markets;
 
  •  build our customer base;
 
  •  maintain credit quality;
 
  •  attract sufficient deposits to fund our anticipated loan growth;
 
  •  attract and retain qualified bank management in each of our targeted markets;
 
  •  identify and pursue suitable opportunities for opening new banking locations; and
 
  •  maintain adequate regulatory capital.

      Failure to manage our growth effectively could have a material adverse effect on our business, future prospects, financial condition or results of operations, and could adversely affect our ability to successfully implement our business strategy.

We have a history of net operating losses

      Although we have generated operating profits for each fiscal quarter since March 2001, we incurred significant losses during our initial years of operations and cannot guarantee that we will be able to sustain profitability. Our losses were attributable in large part to expenses incurred in forming our business, establishing our operations and growing our business, which were funded with equity capital. We cannot assure you that our revenues will continue to be sufficient to cover our expenses or that capital will be available to us on satisfactory terms, or at all, to fund any shortfall between these costs and revenues. Consequently, if we are unable to generate profits on a consistent basis, our ability to compete effectively could be adversely affected.

We have a limited operating history and as a result our financial performance to date may not be a reliable indicator of whether our business strategy will be successful

      We did not commence significant operations with our current management and begin implementing our current strategy until December 1998, and our operations prior to that date were very limited. We have a very limited historical basis upon which to rely for gauging our business performance under normalized operations. Our prospects are subject to the risks and uncertainties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of development, including the risk that we will not be able to implement our business plan or that our business plan will prove to be unprofitable. Accordingly, our financial performance to date may not be

10


 

representative of our long-term future performance or indicative of whether our business strategy will be successful.

We may not be able to find suitable acquisition candidates

      We intend to make acquisitions that will complement or expand our business. However, we believe that there are a limited number of banks that will meet our acquisition criteria and, consequently, we cannot assure you that we will be able to identify suitable candidates for acquisitions. In addition, even if suitable candidates are identified, we expect to compete with other potential bidders for such businesses, many of which may have greater financial resources than we have. Our failure to find suitable acquisition candidates, or successfully bid against other competitors for acquisitions, could adversely affect our ability to successfully implement our business strategy.

We may be unable to manage our growth due to acquisitions, which could have an adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations

      We believe that a portion of our growth will come from acquisitions of banks and other financial institutions. Such acquisitions involve risks of changes in results of operations or cash flows, unforeseen liabilities relating to the acquired institution or arising out of the acquisition, asset quality problems of the acquired entity and other conditions not within our control, such as adverse personnel relations, loss of customers because of change of identity, deterioration in local economic conditions and other risks affecting the acquired institution. In addition, the process of integrating acquired entities will divert significant management time and resources. We cannot assure you that we will be able to integrate successfully or operate profitably any financial institutions we may acquire. We may experience disruption and incur unexpected expenses in integrating acquisitions. There can be no assurance that any such acquisitions will enhance our business, results of operations, cash flows or financial condition, and such acquisitions may have an adverse effect on our results of operations, particularly during periods in which the acquisitions are being integrated into our operations.

We are dependent upon key personnel

      Our success depends to a significant extent upon the performance of certain key employees, the loss of whom could have an adverse effect on our business. Our key employees include Joseph M. Grant, our Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer, George F. Jones, Jr., the President and Chief Executive Officer of our bank, and C. Keith Cargill, our bank’s Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer. Although we have entered into employment agreements with these employees, we cannot assure you that we will be successful in retaining these key employees.

Our operations are significantly affected by interest rate levels

      Our profitability is dependent to a large extent on our net interest income, which is the difference between interest income we earn as a result of interest paid to us on loans and investments and interest we pay to third parties such as our depositors and those from whom we borrow funds. Like most financial institutions, we are affected by changes in general interest rate levels, which are currently at relatively low levels, and by other economic factors beyond our control. Interest rate risk can result from mismatches between the dollar amount of repricing or maturing assets and liabilities and from mismatches in the timing and rate at which our assets and liabilities reprice. Although we have implemented strategies which we believe reduce the potential effects of changes in interest rates on our results of operations, these strategies may not always be successful. In addition, any substantial and prolonged increase in market interest rates could reduce our customers’ desire to borrow money from us or adversely affect their ability to repay their outstanding loans by increasing their credit costs since most of our loans have adjustable interest rates that reset periodically. Any of these events could adversely affect our results of operations or financial condition.

11


 

We must effectively manage our credit risk

      There are risks inherent in making any loan, including risks with respect to the period of time over which the loan may be repaid, risks resulting from changes in economic and industry conditions, risks inherent in dealing with individual borrowers and risks resulting from uncertainties as to the future value of collateral. The risk of nonpayment of loans is inherent in commercial banking. Although we attempt to minimize our credit risk by carefully monitoring the concentration of our loans within specific industries and through prudent loan application approval procedures, we cannot assure you that such monitoring and approval procedures will reduce these lending risks. Moreover, as we expand our operations into new geographic markets, our credit administration and loan underwriting policies will need to be adapted to the local lending and economic environments of these new markets. We cannot assure you that our credit administration personnel, policies and procedures will adequately adapt to any new geographic markets.

There are material risks involved in commercial lending that could adversely affect our business

      We generally invest a greater proportion of our assets in commercial loans than other banking institutions of our size, which typically invest a greater proportion of their assets in loans secured by single-family residences. Commercial loans generally involve a higher degree of credit risk than residential mortgage loans due, in part, to their larger average size and generally less readily-marketable collateral. Due to their size and the nature of their collateral, losses incurred on a small number of commercial loans could have a material adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations. In addition, unlike residential mortgage loans, commercial loans generally depend on the cash flow of the borrower’s business to service the debt. Furthermore, a significant portion of our loans is dependent for repayment largely on the liquidation of assets securing the loan, such as inventory and accounts receivable. These loans carry incrementally higher risk, since their repayment is often dependent solely on the financial performance of the borrower’s business. Our business plan calls for continued efforts to increase our assets invested in commercial loans. An increase in non-performing loans could cause operating losses, impaired liquidity and the erosion of our capital, and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

If the value of real estate in our core Texas markets were to decline materially, a significant portion of our loan portfolio could become under-collateralized, which would have a material adverse effect on us

      The market value of real estate, particularly real estate held for investment, can fluctuate significantly in a short period of time as a result of market conditions in the geographic area in which the real estate is located. If the value of the real estate serving as collateral for our loan portfolio were to decline materially, a significant part of our loan portfolio could become under-collateralized. As of June 30, 2003, approximately 41% of the collateral for the loans in our portfolio consisted of real estate. Of the real estate that collateralizes the loans in our portfolio, approximately one-third of the properties are real estate owned and occupied by businesses to which we have extended loans and the remaining two-thirds is real estate held for investment by the borrower. If the loans that are collateralized by real estate become troubled during a time when market conditions are declining or have declined, then we may not be able to realize the amount of security that we anticipated at the time of originating the loan, which could have a material adverse effect on our provision for loan losses and our operating results and financial condition.

We may be responsible for environmental claims and other related costs of property we acquire through foreclosure, which could adversely affect our profitability

      A significant portion of our loan portfolio is secured by real property. In the course of our business, we may acquire properties that secure loans as a result of foreclosure. There is a risk that hazardous or toxic waste could be found on such properties. In such event, we could be held responsible for the cost of cleaning up or removing such waste, and such cost could significantly exceed the value of the underlying properties and adversely affect our profitability. To date, we have not been required to perform any investigation or clean up activities with respect to, nor have we been subject to any environmental claims on, any loans held in our loan portfolio or other properties we acquired. Although we have a policy that requires us to perform an

12


 

environmental review before initiating any foreclosure action on real property, there can be no assurance that this will be sufficient to detect all potential environmental hazards.

Our financial condition and results of operations would be adversely affected if our allowance for loan losses is not sufficient to absorb actual losses

      Experience in the banking industry indicates that a portion of our loans will become delinquent, some of which may only be partially repaid or may never be repaid at all. Despite our underwriting criteria, we experience losses for reasons beyond our control, such as general economic conditions. Although we believe that our allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level adequate to absorb any inherent losses in our loan portfolio, these estimates of loan losses are inherently subjective and their accuracy depends on the outcome of future events. We may need to make significant and unanticipated increases in our loss allowances in the future, which would materially affect our results of operations in that period.

Bank regulators may require us to increase our allowance for loan losses, which could have a negative effect on our financial condition and results of operations

      Federal regulators, as an integral part of their respective supervisory functions, periodically review our allowance for loan losses. The regulatory agencies may require us to increase our provision for loan losses or to recognize further loan charge-offs based upon their judgments, which may be different from ours. Any increase in the allowance for loan losses required by these regulatory agencies could have a negative effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Lack of seasoning of our loan portfolio may increase the risk of credit defaults in the future

      Most of the loans in our loan portfolio were originated within the past four years, and approximately 49% were originated within the past 18 months. In general, loans do not begin to show signs of credit deterioration or default until they have been outstanding for some period of time, a process referred to as “seasoning.” As a result, a portfolio of older loans will usually behave more predictably than a newer portfolio. Because our loan portfolio is relatively new, the current level of delinquencies and defaults may not be representative of the level that will prevail when the portfolio becomes more seasoned, which is likely to be somewhat higher than current levels.

Until our portfolio becomes more seasoned, we must rely in part on the historical loan loss experience of other financial institutions and the experience of our management in determining our allowance for loan losses, and this may not be comparable to our loan portfolio

      Because most of our loans in our loan portfolio were originated relatively recently, our loan portfolio does not provide an adequate history of loan losses for our management to rely upon in establishing our allowance for loan losses. We therefore rely to a significant extent upon other financial institutions’ histories of loan losses and their allowance for loan losses, as well as our management’s estimates based on their experience in the banking industry, when determining our allowance for loan losses. There is no assurance that the history of loan losses and the reserving policies of other financial institutions and our management’s judgment will result in reserving policies that will be adequate for our business and operations or applicable to our loan portfolio.

Our business faces unpredictable economic conditions

      General economic conditions impact the banking industry. The credit quality of our loan portfolio necessarily reflects, among other things, the general economic conditions in the areas in which we conduct our business. Our continued financial success depends somewhat on factors beyond our control, including:

  •  national and local economic conditions;
 
  •  the supply and demand for investable funds;

13


 

  •  interest rates; and
 
  •  federal, state and local laws affecting these matters.

      Any substantial deterioration in any of the foregoing conditions could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations, which would likely adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Further, with the exception of our BankDirect customers which comprised 19% of our total deposits as of June 30, 2003, our bank’s customer base is primarily commercial in nature, and our bank does not have a significant branch network or retail deposit base. In periods of economic downturn, business and commercial deposits may tend to be more volatile than traditional retail consumer deposits and, therefore, during these periods our financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected to a greater degree than those competitors that have a larger retail customer base.

Our business is concentrated in Texas and a downturn in the economy of Texas may adversely affect our business

      Substantially all of our business is located in Texas. As a result, our financial condition and results of operations may be affected by changes in the Texas economy. A prolonged period of economic recession or other adverse economic conditions in Texas may result in an increase in nonpayment of loans and a decrease in collateral value.

We compete with many larger financial institutions which have substantially greater financial resources than we have

      Competition among financial institutions in Texas is intense. We compete with other bank holding companies, state and national commercial banks, savings and loan associations, consumer finance companies, credit unions, securities brokerages, insurance companies, mortgage banking companies, money market mutual funds, asset-based non-bank lenders and other financial institutions. Many of these competitors have substantially greater financial resources, lending limits and larger branch networks than we do, and are able to offer a broader range of products and services than we can. Failure to compete effectively for deposit, loan and other banking customers in our markets could cause us to lose market share, slow our growth rate and may have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Our future profitability depends, to a significant extent, upon revenue we receive from our middle market business customers and their ability to meet their loan obligations

      At June 30, 2003, a substantial majority of our loan portfolio was comprised of loans to our middle market business customers. For the six month period ended June 30, 2003, a significant portion of our total interest and non-interest income was derived from middle market business customers. We expect that our future profitability will depend, to a significant extent, upon revenue we receive from middle market business customers, and their ability to continue to meet existing loan obligations. As a result, adverse economic conditions or other factors adversely affecting this market segment may have a greater adverse effect on us than on other financial institutions that have a more diversified customer base.

We compete in an industry that continually experiences technological change, and we may have fewer resources than many of our competitors to continue to invest in technological improvements

      The financial services industry is undergoing rapid technological changes, with frequent introductions of new technology-driven products and services. In addition to improving the ability to serve customers, the effective use of technology increases efficiency and enables financial institutions to reduce costs. Our future success will depend, in part, upon our ability to address the needs of our customers by using technology to provide products and services that will satisfy customer demands for convenience, as well as to create additional efficiencies in our operations. Many of our competitors have substantially greater resources to invest in technological improvements. We may not be able to effectively implement new technology-driven products and services or be successful in marketing these products and services to our customers.

14


 

System failure or breaches of our network security could subject us to increased operating costs as well as litigation and other liabilities

      The computer systems and network infrastructure we use could be vulnerable to unforeseen problems. Our operations are dependent upon our ability to protect our computer equipment against damage from fire, power loss, telecommunications failure or a similar catastrophic event. Any damage or failure that causes an interruption in our operations could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. In addition, our operations are dependent upon our ability to protect the computer systems and network infrastructure utilized by us against damage from physical break-ins, security breaches and other disruptive problems caused by the Internet or other users. Such computer break-ins and other disruptions would jeopardize the security of information stored in and transmitted through our computer systems and network infrastructure, which may result in significant liability to us and deter potential customers. Although we, with the help of third-party service providers, intend to continue to implement security technology and establish operational procedures to prevent such damage, there can be no assurance that these security measures will be successful. In addition, advances in computer capabilities, new discoveries in the field of cryptography or other developments could result in a compromise or breach of the algorithms we and our third-party service providers use to protect customer transaction data. A failure of such security measures could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Our success in the Internet banking market will largely depend on our ability to implement services competitive with similar services offered by other financial institutions

      The success of our Internet banking products and services will depend in large part on our ability to implement and maintain the appropriate technology. This includes our ability to provide services competitive with banks that are already using the Internet. If we are unable to implement and maintain the appropriate technology efficiently, it could affect our results of operations and our ability to compete with financial institutions.

Our success in attracting and retaining retail consumer deposits depends on our ability to offer competitive rates and services

      As of June 30, 2003, approximately 19% of our total deposits came from retail consumer customers through BankDirect, our Internet banking facility. The market for Internet banking is extremely competitive and allows retail consumer customers to access financial products and compare interest rates from numerous financial institutions located across the U.S. As a result, Internet retail consumers are more sensitive to interest rate levels than retail consumers who bank at a branch office. Our future success in retaining and attracting retail consumer customers depends, in part, on our ability to offer competitive rates and services.

We could be adversely affected by changes in the regulation of the Internet

      Our ability to conduct, and the cost of conducting, business may also be adversely affected by a number of legislative and regulatory proposals concerning the Internet, which are currently under consideration by federal, state, local and foreign governmental organizations. These proposals include, but are not limited to, the following matters:

  •  on-line content;
 
  •  user privacy;
 
  •  taxation;
 
  •  access charges;
 
  •  liability for third-party activities; and
 
  •  regulatory and supervisory authority.

15


 

      Moreover, it is uncertain how existing laws relating to these issues will be applied to the Internet. The adoption of new laws or the application of existing laws could decrease the growth in the use of the Internet, which could in turn decrease the demand for our services, increase our cost of doing business or otherwise have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Furthermore, government restrictions on Internet content could slow the growth of Internet use and decrease acceptance of the Internet as a communications and commercial medium and thereby have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Risks Related to Our Industry

We are subject to significant government regulation

      We operate in a highly regulated environment and are subject to supervision and regulation by a number of governmental regulatory agencies, including the Federal Reserve System, or Federal Reserve, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, or OCC, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or FDIC. Regulations adopted by these agencies, which are generally intended to provide protection for depositors and customers rather than for the benefit of stockholders, govern a comprehensive range of matters relating to ownership and control of our shares, our acquisition of other companies and businesses, permissible activities for us to engage in, maintenance of adequate capital levels and other aspects of our operations. The bank regulatory agencies possess broad authority to prevent or remedy unsafe or unsound practices or violations of law. In addition, future legislation and government policy, including with respect to bank deregulation and interstate expansion, could adversely affect the banking industry as a whole, including our results of operations. For example, new legislation or regulation may limit the manner in which we may conduct our business, including our ability to offer new products, obtain financing, attract deposits, make loans and achieve satisfactory interest spreads.

Recent legislation will change the way financial institutions conduct their business; we cannot predict the effect it will have upon us

      The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Financial Modernization Act was signed into law on November 12, 1999. Among other things, the Modernization Act repeals restrictions on banks affiliating with securities firms and insurance companies. It also permits bank holding companies that become financial holding companies to engage in additional financial activities, including insurance and securities underwriting and agency activities, merchant banking and insurance company portfolio investment activities. The Modernization Act may have the result of increasing the competition we face from larger banks and other companies. It is not possible to predict the full effect that the Modernization Act will have on us.

Risks Related to an Investment in Our Common Stock

Our offering price may not be indicative of the fair market value of the common stock, and the future trading price of our stock may fluctuate

      The public offering price may not indicate the market price for the common stock after this offering. We determined the public offering price based on a variety of factors, including:

  •  prevailing market conditions;
 
  •  our historical performance and capital structure;
 
  •  estimates of our business potential and earnings prospects;
 
  •  an overall assessment of our management; and
 
  •  the consideration of these factors in relation to market valuation of companies in related businesses.

      The offering price and aggregate number of shares being offered were determined through our negotiations with the underwriters. No assurance can be given that you will be able to resell your shares at a

16


 

price equal to or greater than the offering price or that the offering price necessarily indicates the fair market value of our common stock.

      The market price of our common stock may also be subject to significant fluctuations in response to our future operating results and other factors, including market conditions. In recent years, the stock market has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performances and prospects of individual companies.

If a market for our common stock does not develop, you may not be able to sell your shares at or above the offering price

      Prior to this offering, a public market for our common stock did not exist. Although our common stock has been approved for listing on the Nasdaq National Market, there can be no assurance that an active trading market will develop or that purchasers of our common stock will be able to resell their common stock at prices equal to or greater than the initial public offering price. The development of a public market having the desirable characteristics of depth, liquidity and orderliness depends upon the presence of a sufficient number of willing buyers and sellers at any given time, over which neither we nor any market maker has any control. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that an established and liquid market for the common stock will develop or be maintained.

Future sales of our common stock could depress the price of our common stock

      Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market by our stockholders after this offering, or the perception that these sales are likely to occur, could cause the market price of our common stock to decline. Upon completion of this offering, we will have 24,426,449 outstanding shares of our common stock. Of these shares, approximately 10.5 million shares, including the shares sold in this offering, may be traded, without restriction, in the public market immediately after this offering is completed. Upon the expiration of lock-up agreements entered into by our directors, officers, the selling stockholders and certain other significant stockholders in connection with the offering, which will occur 180 days from the date of this prospectus, approximately 13.0 million additional shares will be eligible for sale in the public market, subject, in the case of our affiliates, to the volume restrictions of Rule 144.

As a new investor, you will incur substantial book value dilution as a result of this offering and future equity issuances could result in further dilution, which could cause our stock price to decline

      The initial public offering price is substantially higher than the current net tangible book value of our outstanding common stock. As a result, investors purchasing common stock in this offering will incur immediate dilution of $4.34 per share. This dilution is due in large part to earlier investors in our company having paid substantially less than the initial public offering price when they purchased their shares. The exercise of outstanding options and future equity issuances, including any additional shares issued in connection with acquisitions, could result in further dilution to investors.

Our existing management will maintain significant control over us following the offering

      Immediately following this offering, our current executive officers and directors will beneficially own approximately 14.8% of the outstanding shares of our common stock, or approximately 13.9% if the underwriters exercise their over-allotment option in full. These percentages may increase to the extent that the executive officers and directors elect to purchase shares in connection with this offering. Accordingly, our current executive officers and directors will be able to influence, to a significant extent, the outcome of all matters required to be submitted to our stockholders for approval (including decisions relating to the election of directors), the determination of day-to-day corporate and management policies and other significant corporate activities.

We have not historically paid, and do not presently intend to pay, cash dividends

      We have not paid any cash dividends on our common stock to date and do not intend to pay cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. We intend to retain earnings to finance operations and the expansion of our business. Therefore, any gains from your investment in our common stock must come from an increase in its market price.

We will be restricted in our ability to pay dividends to our stockholders

      We are a holding company with no independent sources of revenue and would likely rely upon cash dividends and other payments from our bank to fund the payment of future cash dividends, if any, to our stockholders. Payment of dividends by the bank to us would be subject to the prior approval of the OCC if the total of all dividends declared by the bank in any calendar year exceeds the sum of the bank’s net profits for that year and its retained net profits for the preceding two calendar years, less any required transfers to surplus. In addition, federal law also prohibits a national bank from paying dividends if it is, or such dividend payments would cause it to become, undercapitalized. At June 30, 2003, our bank was prohibited by these laws from paying any dividends to us without the OCC’s prior approval. If the bank is restricted from paying cash dividends to us, we would likely not be able to pay cash dividends to our stockholders.

Anti-takeover provisions of our certificate of incorporation, bylaws and Delaware law may make it more difficult for you to receive a change in control premium

      Certain provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws could make a merger, tender offer or proxy contest more difficult, even if such events were perceived by many of our stockholders as beneficial to their interests. These provisions include advance notice for nominations of directors and stockholders’ proposals. In addition, our certificate of incorporation authorizes the issuance of “blank check” preferred stock with such designations, rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by our board of directors. Accordingly, our board of directors is empowered, without stockholder approval (unless otherwise required by the rules of any stock exchange on which our common stock is then listed), to issue preferred stock with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting or other rights which could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of our common stock. In the event of such issuance, the preferred stock could be utilized, under certain circumstances, as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control. Although we have no present intention to issue any shares of our preferred stock, there can be no assurance that we will not do so in the future. In addition, as a Delaware corporation, we are subject to Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law which, in general, prevents an interested stockholder, defined generally as a person owning 15% or more of a corporation’s outstanding voting stock, from engaging in a business combination with our company for three years following the date that person became an interested stockholder unless certain specified conditions are satisfied.

There are substantial regulatory limitations on changes of control

      With certain limited exceptions, federal regulations prohibit a person or company or a group of persons deemed to be “acting in concert” from, directly or indirectly, acquiring more than 10% (5% if the acquiror is a bank holding company) of any class of our voting stock or obtaining the ability to control in any manner the election of a majority of our directors or otherwise direct the management or policies of our company without prior notice or application to and the approval of the Federal Reserve. Accordingly, prospective investors need to be aware of and comply with these requirements, if applicable, in connection with any purchase of shares of our common stock in this offering.

We have broad discretion to use the proceeds of this offering

      We expect to use the net proceeds from this offering for the broadening of business lines, potential acquisitions in the financial and financial services industries and other general corporate purposes. Accordingly, we will have broad discretion as to the application of such proceeds. You will not have an opportunity to evaluate the economic, financial or other information on which we base our decisions on how to use these net proceeds. Our failure to use these funds effectively could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

      This prospectus includes “forward-looking statements” based on our current expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections about our business and our industry. They include, but are not limited to, statements relating to:

  •  future revenues, expenses and profitability; and
 
  •  the future development and expected growth of our business.

      You can identify forward-looking statements by the use of words such as “may,” “should,” “will,” “could,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” “aims,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “plans,” “expects,” “future” and “intends” and similar expressions. This information does not guarantee future performance and is subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond our control and difficult to predict and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements. In evaluating forward-looking statements, you should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described in “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this prospectus. The forward-looking statements reflect our view only as of the date of this prospectus, and we do not assume any obligation to update or correct these forward-looking statements except to the extent we are required to do so by applicable law. All forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements and risk factors contained throughout this prospectus.

USE OF PROCEEDS

      We expect to receive net proceeds of approximately $30.2 million from this offering after deducting the underwriting discount and estimated offering expenses. We will not receive any proceeds from shares of our common stock sold by the selling stockholders in this offering.

      We intend to use the net proceeds for general corporate purposes, including to finance the growth of our business. We may also use a portion of the proceeds for acquisitions or for the opening of select banking locations. However, we have no present understanding, agreement or definitive plans relating to any specific acquisitions or openings of any banking locations, other than the anticipated opening of our banking center in Houston in September 2003.

      The principal purposes of this offering are to raise capital, create a public market for our common stock, enhance our ability to acquire other businesses, products and technologies and facilitate future access to public securities markets.

      We have not yet determined the amount of net proceeds to be used specifically for each of the foregoing purposes mentioned above. Accordingly, our management will have significant flexibility in applying the net proceeds of the offering. Pending their use as described above, we may invest the net proceeds of this offering in interest-bearing investment-grade instruments or bank deposits.

DIVIDEND POLICY

      We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock. We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. We currently intend to retain future earnings, if any, to finance operations and the expansion of our business.

      In addition, we are a holding company and our principal source of funds to pay dividends, if any, in the future and make other payments will be the payment of dividends by our bank to us. As a national bank, our bank is subject to various restrictions under federal law on its ability to pay dividends and make other distributions and payments to us. These are described under “Regulation and Supervision.”

      Any future determination to pay cash dividends will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will be dependent upon our financial condition, operating results, capital requirements, federal banking regulations, Delaware law, and other factors that our board of directors deems relevant.

CAPITALIZATION

      The following table presents our capitalization as of June 30, 2003. Our capitalization is presented:

  •  on an actual basis (which does not reflect the conversion of the 1,057,142 shares of preferred stock into shares of common stock); and
 
  •  on a pro forma basis to reflect:

  •  our receipt of the estimated net proceeds of approximately $30.2 million from the sale of 3,000,000 shares of common stock by us in this offering, after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and commissions, and estimated offering expenses;
 
  •  the conversion of the 1,057,142 shares of preferred stock outstanding into 2,114,284 shares of common stock, which we expect will automatically occur upon the consummation of the offering; and
 
  •  the conversion of a sufficient number of shares of Series A-1 Nonvoting common stock, all of which is held by one of our stockholders, into an equal number of shares of voting common stock so that, after the offering, the holder’s beneficial ownership of voting common stock equals 4.9% of the outstanding shares of voting common stock.

      You should read this table in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes that are included in this prospectus.

(1)  The consolidated statement of operations data and consolidated balance sheet data presented above for the six month period ended June 30, 2002 and for the four most recent fiscal years ended December 31 have been derived from our audited consolidated financial statements, which have been audited by Ernst & Young LLP, independent auditors. The historical results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected in any future period. The unaudited operating results for the six month period ended June 30, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be achieved for the full year. Interim results reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations and balances for the interim periods presented. Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.
 
(2)  During the six months ended June 30, 2003, net income included the impact of reversing our deferred tax asset valuation allowance of $5.9 million, $6.3 million in penalties related to unwinding repurchase agreements prior to maturity and approximately $250,000 in separation expense related to the resignation of a senior officer. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, income per share excluding the impact of reversing the valuation allowance, unwinding penalties and separation expense would have been $0.25, on a basic basis, and $0.25, on a diluted basis. During the year ended December 31, 2002, net income included $1.2 million in IPO expenses recognized as our offering was postponed. For the year ended December 31, 2002, income per share excluding these IPO expenses would have been $0.37, on a basic basis, and $0.36, on a diluted basis. Income per share excluding the impact of reversing the valuation allowance, unwinding penalties and separation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and income per share excluding IPO expenses for the year ended December 31, 2002 are non-GAAP financial measures.

For the six months ended June 30, 2003, the efficiency ratio excluding the penalties and separation expense would have been 64.70%. During the year ended December 31, 2002, non-interest expense included $1.2 million in IPO expenses recognized as our offering was postponed. For the year ended December 31, 2002, the efficiency ratio excluding the IPO expenses would have been 67.19%. The efficiency ratio excluding unwinding penalties and separation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and the efficiency ratio excluding IPO expenses for the year ended December 31, 2002 are non-GAAP financial measures.

For the six months ended June 30, 2003, the annualized ratio of non-interest expense to average assets excluding the penalties and separation expense would have been 2.11%. During the year ended December 31, 2002, the non-interest expense to average assets ratio included $1.2 million in IPO expenses recognized as our offering was postponed.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL

CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview of Our Operating Results

      Our bank was formed through the acquisition of Resource Bank, N.A., which itself had been organized in 1997. Upon completion of our $80 million private equity offering and acquisition of our predecessor bank, we commenced operations in December 1998. The amount of capital we raised, which we believe is the largest amount of start-up capital ever raised for a national bank, was intended to support a significant level of near-term growth and permit us to originate and retain loans of a size and type that our targeted customers, middle market businesses and high net worth individuals, would find attractive. Our large initial capitalization has resulted in reduced levels of return on equity to date. However, as we build our loan and investment portfolio we expect our return on equity to increase to normalized levels.

      An important aspect of our growth strategy is the ability to service and effectively manage a large number of loans and deposit accounts in multiple markets in Texas. Accordingly, we created an operations infrastructure sufficient to support state-wide lending and banking operations. We believe that our existing infrastructure will allow us to grow our business over the next two to three years both geographically and with respect to the size and number of loan and deposit accounts without substantial additional capital expenditures.

      During 1999 and 2000, we established a total of seven banking centers in key metropolitan markets in Texas. We also invested resources in hiring experienced bankers, which required a significant period of time for both recruiting and transitioning them from their previous employers. In conjunction with our roll-out of operations in 1999, we undertook a significant advertising and marketing campaign to increase brand name recognition of the traditional banking activities of our bank and of BankDirect, particularly in the Dallas/ Fort Worth business community. Once we had achieved our initial goals, we were able to significantly reduce our advertising expenses (from $2.3 million (which excludes approximately $1.9 million in expenses attributable to American Airlines AAdvantage® minimum mile requirements and co-branded advertising) in 2000 to $278,000 in 2001) and place more emphasis on targeted marketing to, and relationship-building efforts with, selected business groups, charities and communities. As we enter new market areas, we intend to evaluate the efficiency of selected advertising to brand our name and increase our recognition in those markets.

      Our historical financial results reflect the development of our company in its early stages, notably in connection with initial start-up costs and the raising and retention of excess capital to fund our planned growth. In 1999 and 2000, we incurred significant non-interest expenses for the start-up and infrastructure costs described above, while revenue items gradually increased as we began to source and originate loans and other earning assets. In 2001, 2002 and the first half of 2003, we achieved improved levels of profitability as these costs have been spread over a larger asset base.

      Our historical results also reflect the evolving role of BankDirect, the Internet banking division of our bank, in our business. When we launched BankDirect in 1999, we aimed to quickly establish a significant market position and establish a significant deposit base with which to fund our growth. Accordingly, we committed substantial resources to advertising for BankDirect and offered its deposit products at very attractive rates. Our efforts were successful, and BankDirect grew to account for approximately $369.7 million in deposits by the end of 2000, providing much of the liquidity we required to increase our lending activities during 2000. By early 2001, however, deposits at our traditional bank had grown to an amount sufficient to fund a much larger portion of our ongoing lending activities. As a result, we decided to reorient the focus of BankDirect towards higher balance depositors to reduce our management requirements and expenses. To this end, we restructured the account fees charged by BankDirect and lowered the rates on deposit products. This reorientation toward customers with higher deposit balances allowed us to significantly reduce our expenses related to BankDirect (from $6.8 million in 2000 (which excludes approximately $1.9 million in expenses attributable to American Airlines AAdvantage® minimum mile requirements and co-branded advertising) to $3.0 million in 2001, a decrease of over 56%), while substantially increasing the average balance held in our BankDirect accounts and lowering the total number of accounts serviced by BankDirect. As of June 30, 2003,

BankDirect provided a significant, but not primary, source of funding for us, accounting for approximately 19% of our deposits.

      Our operating results have improved significantly over the past several years as we moved into full operations. The table below shows the annual growth rate of our net interest income, net income, assets, loans and deposits:

(1)  The annual growth rate with respect to period data is the percentage growth of the item in the period shown compared to the most recently completed prior period. For purposes of calculating the 1999 annual growth rate, results of our bank and Resource Bank, our predecessor bank, for 1998 have been combined. The annual growth rate with respect to data as of a particular date is the percentage growth of the item at the date shown compared to the most recent prior date.

Not meaningful.

      The growth in our profitability is based on several key factors:

  •  we have successfully grown our asset base significantly each year;
 
  •  we have been able to maintain stable and diverse funding sources, resulting in increased net interest income from 2000 onward, despite a falling interest rate environment and the fact that most of our loans have floating interest rates;
 
  •  the growth in our asset base has resulted in annual growth of 815%, 177%, 53% and 21% in our principal earnings source, net interest income, in 1999, 2000, 2001 and 2002, respectively; and
 
  •  since the completion of our initial advertising and marketing campaigns and the reorientation of BankDirect, we have been able to tightly control non-interest expenses; this has contributed to a substantial improvement of our efficiency ratio from 176.8% in 1999 to 69.5% in 2002.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2003 Compared to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2002

      We recorded net income of $6.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to $3.4 million for the same period in 2002. Diluted income per common share was $0.32 for 2003 and $0.15 for the same period in 2002. Returns on average assets and average equity were 0.74% and 10.87%, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2003, compared to 0.56% and 6.02%, respectively, for the same period in 2002.

      The increase in net income for the six months ended June 30, 2003 over the same period of 2002 was primarily due to an increase in net interest income and non-interest income and the impact of reversing the deferred tax valuation allowance of $5.9 million, offset by an increase in non-interest expense. Net interest income increased by $4.8 million, or 24.5%, to $24.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to $19.6 million for the same period in 2002. The increase in net interest income was primarily due to an increase of $613.7 million in average earning assets, offset by a 66 basis point decrease in the net interest margin. Non-interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2003 included approximately $250,000 in separation expense related to the resignation of a senior officer and $6.3 million in penalties related to unwinding repurchase agreements in June 2003 prior to maturity to lower funding costs. We unwound approximately $139 million of repurchase agreements and entered into new repurchase agreements

26


 

with respect to a significant portion of that amount, with the remainder replaced with overnight funds. A significant portion of these overnight funds were replaced with deposits when we completed our acquisition of the outstanding deposit accounts of Bluebonnet Savings Bank FSB, which occurred on August 8, 2003. See “Business — Acquisition of Bluebonnet Savings Deposits.” The impact on net interest income of these transactions was not material for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003, as these transactions occurred in June. Assuming a flat interest rate environment, we expect that these transactions will significantly lower our cost of funding through the remainder of 2003 and in 2004.

      Excluding the impact of reversing the valuation allowance, unwinding penalties and separation expense, diluted income per share would have been $0.25. Income per share excluding the impact of reversing the valuation allowance, unwinding penalties and separation expense is a non-GAAP financial measure. Please see the discussion of non-GAAP financial measures beginning on page 7 for an explanation of why we believe this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to management and investors and the table beginning on page 8 for a reconciliation of diluted income per share excluding impact of reversing the valuation allowance, unwinding penalties and separation expense to diluted income per share, which is the most directly comparable financial measure presented in accordance with GAAP.

      Non-interest income increased by $2.4 million, or 68.1%, during the six month period ended June 30, 2003 to $6.1 million, compared to $3.7 million during the same period in 2002. The increase was in part due to an overall increase in non-interest bearing deposits for 2003, which resulted in more service charges on deposit accounts. Also, our trust income increased by $95,000 to $587,000 during the six month period ended June 30, 2003 compared to $492,000 for the same period in 2002, due to continued growth in trust assets. During the six month period ended June 30, 2003, we had a gain on sale of securities of $686,000 due to our ability to realize substantial profits from sales of fixed-rate debt securities as a result of rapid declines in overall interest rates. Mortgage warehouse fees increased by $448,000 to $703,000 during the six month period ended June 30, 2003 from $255,000 in the same period in 2002. Also, we had bank owned life insurance (BOLI) income of $842,000 during the six month period ended June 30, 2003.

      Non-interest expense increased by $9.5 million, or 56.6%, to $26.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to $16.8 million during the same period in 2002. This increase is primarily due to the incurrence of $6.3 million in penalties related to unwinding repurchase agreements prior to maturity in order to take advantage of historical lows in interest rates, which had decreased on similar repurchase agreements by approximately 1.4% since the time we entered into the original repurchase agreements. Salaries and employee benefits increased by $2.9 million due in part to an increase in total full-time employees from 201 at June 30, 2002 to 237 at June 30, 2003. The increase in salaries and employee benefits also included separation expenses of approximately $250,000 related to the resignation of a senior officer. In addition, we experienced losses related to forged checks of approximately $278,000 in the first half of 2003. We have taken steps to attempt to reduce these types of losses in the future. Occupancy expense decreased by $167,000 to $2.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the same period in 2002 primarily related to a decrease in depreciation as many of our fixed assets are becoming fully depreciated. Advertising expense decreased $170,000 to $392,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2003 from $562,000 during the same period in 2002.

Year Ended December 31, 2002 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2001

      We recorded net income of $7.3 million for 2002 compared to $5.8 million for 2001. Diluted income per common share was $0.32 for 2002 and $0.30 for 2001. Returns on average assets and average equity were 0.54% and 6.27%, respectively, for 2002 compared to 0.58% and 6.44%, respectively, for 2001.

      The increase in net income for 2002 was due to an increase in both net interest income and non-interest income partially offset by an increase in non-interest expenses. Net interest income increased by $7.2 million, or 20.5%, to $42.3 million for 2002 compared to $35.1 million for 2001. The increase in net interest income was primarily due to an increase of $319.5 million in average earning assets, offset by a 34 basis point decrease in the net interest margin. Non-interest expense included $1.2 million of IPO expenses recognized as our offering was postponed in October 2002 due to unfavorable market conditions. Excluding the IPO

27


 

expenses, diluted income per share would have been $0.36. Income per share excluding IPO expenses is a non-GAAP financial measure. Please see discussion of non-GAAP financial measures beginning on page 7 for an explanation of why we believe this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to management and investors and the table beginning on page 8 for a reconciliation of diluted income per share excluding IPO expenses to diluted income per share, which is the most directly comparable financial measure presented in accordance with GAAP.

      Non-interest income increased by $2.6 million in 2002 to $8.6 million, compared to $6.0 million in 2001. The increase was in part due to an overall increase in deposits for 2002, which resulted in more service charges on deposit accounts. Also, our trust income increased by $161,000, to $987,000 for 2002 compared to $826,000 for 2001, due to continued growth in trust assets. Mortgage warehouse fees increased by $402,000 to $693,000 for 2002 from $291,000 in 2001. Income from bank owned life insurance, or BOLI, policies that we purchased during 2002 totaled $660,000. Gain on sale of securities in 2002 was $1.4 million compared to $1.9 million in 2001.

      Non-interest expense increased by $6.0 million in 2002 to $35.4 million compared to $29.4 million in 2001. The increase was due, in part, to an increase in total full-time employees from 198 at December 31, 2001 to 215 at December 31, 2002. IPO expenses of $1.2 million were recognized as our offering was postponed in October 2002 due to unfavorable market conditions. Advertising expenses increased to $1.2 million in 2002 compared to $278,000 in 2001. 2002 advertising expenses included direct marketing and branding for the traditional banking activities of our bank of $586,000 and for BankDirect of $12,000, as well as American Airlines AAdvantage® minimum mile requirements of $630,000 and co-branded advertising with American Airlines AAdvantage® of $8,000. BankDirect has been a member of American Airlines AAdvantage® travel benefits program since May 2000, offering AAdvantage awards to AAdvantage® members who open and maintain accounts with BankDirect. We did not purchase any miles in 2001 because the miles that we were contractually required to purchase in 2000 were sufficient to cover our mileage rewards to customers in 2001.

Year Ended December 31, 2001 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2000

      We recorded net income of $5.8 million for 2001 compared to a net loss of $16.5 million for 2000. Diluted income (loss) per common share was $0.30 for 2001 and $(0.95) for 2000. Returns on average assets and average equity were 0.58% and 6.44%, respectively, for 2001 compared to (2.42)% and (20.02)%, respectively, for 2000.

      The increase in net income for 2001 was due to an increase in both net interest income and non-interest income and a substantial decrease in non-interest expenses. Net interest income increased by $12.2 million, or 53.5%, to $35.1 million for 2001 compared to $22.8 million for 2000. The increase in net interest income was primarily due to an increase of $317.0 million in average earning assets, combined with an 11 basis point increase in the net interest margin.

      Non-interest income increased by $4.0 million in 2001 to $6.0 million, compared to $2.0 million in 2000. The increase was in part due to an overall increase in deposits for 2001, which resulted in more service charges on deposit accounts. Also, our trust income increased by $252,000, to $826,000 for 2001 compared to $574,000 for 2000, due to continued growth in trust assets. Mortgage warehouse fees increased by $287,000 to $291,000 in 2001 from $4,000 in 2000. Other non-interest income increased by $234,000 in 2001 to $1.1 million from $873,000 in 2000, primarily related to letter of credit fees, investment fees, rental income, and gain on sale of leases. Gain on sale of securities in 2001 was $1.9 million compared to $19,000 in 2000, due to our ability to realize substantial profits from sales of fixed-rate debt securities as a result of rapid declines in overall interest rates.

      Non-interest expense decreased by $5.8 million in 2001 to $29.4 million compared to $35.2 million in 2000. The decrease was due, in part, to a reduction in total full-time employees from 234 at December 31, 2000 to 198 at December 31, 2001. 75% of this decrease in full-time employees from 2000 to 2001 was attributable to a reduction in BankDirect employees from 40 to 13. Also, we reduced advertising expenses to $278,000 in 2001 compared to $4.2 million in 2000. 2000 advertising expenses included direct marketing and

28


 

branding for the traditional banking activities of our bank of $724,000 and for BankDirect of $1.6 million, as well as American Airlines AAdvantage® minimum mile requirements of $1.1 million and co-branded advertising with American Airlines AAdvantage® of $752,000. BankDirect has been a member of the American Airlines AAdvantage® travel benefits program since May 2000, offering AAdvantage® awards to AAdvantage® members who open and maintain accounts with BankDirect. We did not purchase any miles in 2001 because the miles that we were contractually required to purchase in 2000 were sufficient to cover our mileage rewards to customers in 2001. Also, a reduction in other non-interest expense was due to the accrual in 2000 of a $1.8 million contingent liability related to an agreement to provide merchant card processing for a customer who ceased operations and filed for bankruptcy in December 2000. Approximately $300,000 of this liability was reversed in 2001.

Net Interest Income

      Net interest income was $24.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to $19.6 million for the same period of 2002. The increase was primarily due to an increase in average earning assets of $613.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. The increase in average earning assets from the six months ended June 30, 2002 included a $270.3 million increase in average net loans, which represented 65.5% of average earning assets for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to 77.0% for the same period in 2002. The decrease reflected management’s decision to tighten lending standards during 2002 pending clearer signs of improvement in the U.S. economy. While we continue to apply conservative lending standards, loan growth in the second quarter of 2003 continued as net loans increased to $1.23 billion. Securities increased to 33.3% of average earning assets for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to 21.1% for the same period in 2002. We used additional securities in 2003 to increase our earnings by taking advantage of market spreads between returns on assets and the cost of funding these assets.

      Average interest bearing liabilities increased $560.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the same period in 2002, due, in part, to a $226.2 million increase in interest bearing deposits and a $319.5 million increase in other borrowings. Average borrowings were 26.3% of average total assets for the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to 14.6% for the same period in 2002. The increase in average borrowings was primarily related to an increase in federal funds purchased and securities sold under repurchase agreements, and was used to supplement deposits in funding loan growth and securities purchases. The average cost of interest bearing liabilities decreased from 2.62% for the six months ended June 30, 2002 to 2.27% for the same period in 2003, reflecting the continuing decline in market interest rates and a $95.9 million increase in non-interest bearing deposits.

      Net interest income was $42.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2002 compared to $35.1 million for the same period of 2001. The increase was primarily due to an increase in average earning assets of $319.5 million for 2002 as compared to 2001. The increase in average earning assets from 2002 included a $176.2 million increase in average net loans, which represented 74.0% of average earning assets for the year ended December 31, 2002 compared to 80.3% for 2001. The decrease reflected management’s decision to tighten lending standards during 2002 pending clearer signs of improvement in the U.S. economy. Securities increased to 24.8% of average earning assets in 2002 compared to 18.2% in 2001.

      Average interest bearing liabilities increased $268.0 million in 2002 compared to 2001, due, in part, to a $120.7 million increase in interest bearing deposits and a $146.2 million increase in other borrowings. Average borrowings were 18.2% of average total assets for 2002 compared to 10.1% in 2001. The increase in average borrowings was primarily related to an increase in federal funds purchased and securities sold under repurchase agreements, and was used to supplement deposits in funding loan growth and securities purchases. The average cost of interest bearing liabilities decreased from 4.35% for the year ended December 31, 2001 to 2.57% in 2002, reflecting the continuing decline in market interest rates and a $55.8 million increase in non-interest bearing deposits.

      Net interest income increased by $12.2 million, or 53.5%, in 2001 to $35.1 million compared to $22.8 million in 2000. The increase in net interest income was primarily due to a significant increase in

average earning assets. Average earning assets increased by $317.0 million during 2001, primarily due to continued growth in our lending portfolio. Additionally, the mix of earning assets improved during 2001. Average loans, which generally have higher yields than other types of earning assets, increased to 80.3% of average earning assets in 2001 compared to 64.5% of average earning assets in 2000.

      Average interest bearing liabilities also increased by $269.9 million during 2001 compared to 2000. Of this amount, interest bearing deposits increased $186.6 million and borrowings increased $83.3 million. Average borrowings were 10.1% of average total assets for 2001 compared to 2.9% for 2000. The increase in borrowings was used to supplement deposits in funding the growth in loans. The average cost of interest bearing liabilities decreased in 2001 to 4.35% from 6.02% in 2000. The decrease was mainly due to the overall decline in market interest rates, as well as the additional lowering of rates on BankDirect deposits and a $51.0 million increase in non-interest bearing deposits.

(1)  Changes attributable to both volume and yield/rate are allocated to both volume and yield/rate on an equal basis.

     Net interest margin, the ratio of net interest income to average earning assets, decreased from 3.47% for the six months ended June 30, 2002 to 2.81% for the same period in 2003. This decrease was due primarily to the falling rate environment in which our balance sheet was asset sensitive, which means we had more loans repricing than deposits over the year. In addition, a larger portion of our assets were invested in securities, which generally have a lower yield than loans. The cost of interest bearing liabilities decreased by 35 basis points during the six months ended June 30, 2003, primarily due to overall lower market interest rates, and an increase in non-interest bearing deposits.

      Net interest margin decreased from 3.62% in 2001 to 3.28% in 2002. This decrease was due primarily to the falling rate environment in which our balance sheet was asset sensitive, which means we had more loans repricing than deposits over the year. The cost of interest bearing liabilities decreased by 178 basis points in 2002, primarily due to overall lower market interest rates, and an increase in non-interest bearing deposits.

      Net interest margin increased from 3.51% in 2000 to 3.62% in 2001. This increase was due primarily to lower cost of funds and continued strong asset yields in a falling rate environment. The cost of interest bearing liabilities decreased by 167 basis points in 2001, primarily due to lower interest rates offered as a result of a reorientation of BankDirect, overall lower market interest rates, and an increase in non-interest bearing deposits.

      Non-interest income increased $2.4 million, or 68.1%, in the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. Service charges on deposit accounts increased $395,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the same period in 2002. This increase was due to the significant increase in non-interest deposits, which resulted in a higher volume of transactions. Trust fee income increased $95,000 due to continued growth of trust assets during the six month period ended June 30, 2003. During the six month period ended June 30, 2003, we had gains on sale of securities of $686,000 due to our ability to realize substantial profits from sales of fixed-rate debt securities as a result of rapid declines in overall interest rates. Cash processing fees totaled $973,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2003, which is comparable to the same period in 2002. These fees were related to a special project that occurred during the first quarters of 2003 and 2002 and will not be recurring in future quarters of 2003. We had BOLI income of $842,000 during the first six months of 2003. Our BOLI investment originated in August 2002. The current policy provides life insurance for 25 executives, naming us as beneficiary. Mortgage warehouse fees increased by $448,000.

      Non-interest income increased $2.6 million, or 44.2%, in the year ended December 31, 2002 as compared to 2001. Service charges on deposit accounts increased $915,000 for the year ended December 31, 2002 as compared to 2001. This increase was due to the significant increase in deposits, which resulted in a higher volume of transactions. Trust fee income increased $161,000 due to continued growth of trust assets during 2002. Cash processing fees totaled $993,000 for the year ended December 31, 2002. These fees were related to a special project that occurred during the first quarter of 2002. Mortgage warehouse fees increased by $402,000 to $693,000 for 2002 from $291,000 in 2001. Income from bank owned life insurance, or BOLI, policies that we purchased during 2002 totaled $660,000.

      Non-interest income for the year ended December 31, 2001 increased $4.0 million, or 205.7%, to $6.0 million compared with $2.0 million in 2000. Service charges on deposit accounts increased $1.4 million, or 281.3%, in 2001 as compared to 2000 due to the large increase in total deposits, which resulted in a higher volume of transactions. Service charges on deposit accounts contributed 31.0% of our non-interest income for 2001 compared to 24.9% of our non-interest income in 2000. Trust fee income increased by $252,000 in 2001 compared to 2000, while contributing 13.8% of non-interest income for 2001 compared to 29.3% for 2000. Mortgage warehouse fees increased $287,000 for 2001 to $291,000 from $4,000 in 2000. Other non-interest income increased by $234,000, or 26.8%, compared to 2000 due to letter of credit fees, investment fees, rental income and gain on sale of leases. Gain on sale of securities increased in 2001 to $1.9 million compared to $19,000 in 2000.

      While management expects continued growth in non-interest income, the future rate of growth could be affected by increased competition from nationwide and regional financial institutions. In order to achieve continued growth in non-interest income, we may need to introduce new products or enter into new markets.

Any new product introduction or new market entry would likely place additional demands on capital and managerial resources.

      Non-interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2003 increased $9.5 million, or 56.6%, compared to the same period of 2002. This increase included $6.3 million in penalties related to our restructuring of the maturities and pricing of our repurchase agreements in June 2003 in order to take advantage of historical lows in interest rates, which had decreased on similar repurchase agreements by approximately 1.4% since the time we entered into the original repurchase agreements. We unwound approximately $139 million in repurchase agreements prior to their maturities and entered into new repurchase agreements with respect to a significant portion of that amount, with the remainder replaced with overnight funds. A significant portion of these overnight funds were replaced with deposits when we completed our acquisition of the outstanding deposit accounts of Bluebonnet Savings Bank FSB, which occurred on August 8, 2003. See “Business — Acquisition of Bluebonnet Savings Deposits.” Salaries and employee benefits increased by $2.9 million or 34.9%. Total full time employees increased from 201 at June 30, 2002 to 237 at June 30, 2003. Also included in salaries and benefits for the six months ended June 30, 2003, is $250,000 in separation costs related to the resignation of a senior officer. In addition, we experienced losses related to forged checks of approximately $278,000 in the first half of 2003. We have taken steps to attempt to reduce these types of losses in the future.

      Net occupancy expense for the six months ended June 30, 2003 decreased by $167,000, or 6.5%, mainly due to a decrease in depreciation as many of our fixed assets are becoming fully depreciated.

      Advertising expense for the six months ended June 30, 2003 decreased $170,000, or 30.2%, compared to 2002. Advertising expense for the six months ended June 30, 2003 included $62,000 of direct marketing and branding, including print ads for the traditional bank, and $330,000 for the purchase of miles related to the American Airlines AAdvantage® program compared to direct marketing and branding of $289,000 and $273,000 for the purchases of American Airlines miles during the same period in 2002. Our direct marketing may increase as we seek to further develop our brand, reach more of our target customers and expand in our target markets. Legal and professional expenses increased $58,000 or 4.0%, mainly related to continued legal expenses incurred with our non-performing loans and leases. Communications and data processing expense

34


 

for the six months ended June 30, 2003 increased $56,000, or 4.0%, due to growth in our loan and deposit base and increased staff.

      Non-interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2002 increased $6.0 million, or 20.2%, compared to the same period of 2001. Salaries and employee benefits increased by $1.7 million, or 11.5%, which accounts for 29.0% of the increase in non-interest expense. Total full time employees increased from 198 at December 31, 2001 to 215 at December 31, 2002.

      Net occupancy expense for the year ended December 31, 2002 increased by $206,000, or 4.3%, mainly related to the relocation of our operations center in the last quarter of 2001.

      Advertising expense for the year ended December 31, 2002 increased $958,000, or 344.6%, compared to 2001. Advertising expense for the year ended December 31, 2002 included $586,000 of direct marketing and branding, including print ads for the traditional bank and $12,000 for BankDirect, $630,000 for the purchase of miles related to the American Airlines AAdvantage® program and $8,000 of co-branded advertising with American Airlines. We did not purchase any miles in 2001 because the miles that we were contractually required to purchase in 2000 were sufficient to cover our mileage rewards to customers for 2001. Since 2002, we purchased miles as we utilized them. Legal and professional expenses increased $1.1 million or 60.1%, mainly related to legal expenses incurred with our non-performing loans and leases. Communications and data processing expense for the year ended December 31, 2002 decreased $91,000, or 3.1%, due to some increased efficiencies in our communications costs. IPO expenses of $1.2 million were recognized as our offering was postponed in October 2002 due to unfavorable market conditions.

      Non-interest expense totaled $29.4 million for 2001 compared to $35.2 million in 2000, a decrease of $5.8 million, or 16.3%. Approximately $297,000, or 5.2%, of this decrease in 2001 compared to 2000 was related to salary and employee benefits. Total full time employees decreased from 234 at December 31, 2000 to 198 at December 31, 2001. The decrease was due to our realignment of staffing levels during the second quarter of 2001. Most of this decrease was due to a reduction in BankDirect employees from 40 to 13, relating to our decision to reorient the focus of BankDirect toward higher-balance depositors.

      Net occupancy expense for 2001 increased $673,000 or 16.3%. The increase was primarily due to our use of all of our primary locations for the entire year, as well as the relocation of our operations center in the last quarter of the year.

      Advertising expense for 2001 totaled $278,000 compared to $4.2 million in 2000. Advertising expense in 2000 included direct marketing with print and online ads, branding for the traditional bank and BankDirect, and minimum miles and co-branding related to the American Airlines AAdvantage® program. Legal and professional expense for 2001 totaled $1.9 million compared to $2.8 million in 2000. This decrease is partially due to costs incurred in 2000 related to obtaining final regulatory approval for the formation of a state chartered savings bank in connection with a possible restructuring of our operations (which we decided not to pursue), and an investment banking fee related to BankDirect. Legal and professional expenses for 2000 also included a $150,000 accrual related to legal expenses associated with the contingent liability related to the merchant card processing arrangement, which is discussed below. Communications and data processing expenses increased to $2.9 million in 2001, as compared to $1.8 million in 2000. This increase is due to the strong growth in our loans and non-interest bearing deposits, which created significantly more transactions to be processed. Included in other expenses in 2000 was a $1.8 million contingent liability related to an agreement to provide merchant card processing for a customer who ceased operations and filed for bankruptcy in December 2000. Other expenses in 2001 include a reversal of approximately $300,000 of the $1.8 million contingent liability, as the actual losses were less than the original amount accrued.

Income Taxes

      We had a gross deferred tax asset of $7.8 million at June 30, 2003 (unaudited). In 2003, as a result of our reassessment of our ability to generate sufficient earnings to allow the utilization of our deferred tax assets, we believe it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized. Accordingly, in

35


 

compliance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, we reversed the valuation allowance and certain related tax reserves during the period.

      At December 31, 2002, we had a net deferred tax asset of $2.2 million, and a valuation allowance of $5.4 million. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance at December 31, 2002, we did not assume future taxable income would be generated due to our limited operating history and uncertainty regarding the timing of certain future deductions. The effective tax rate in 2002 reflected the use of certain net operating loss carryforwards from prior years.

      No tax was provided in 2000 and 2001 due to tax losses which were generated and used during those years. Deferred tax assets at December 31, 2001 were fully offset by a valuation allowance.

Lines of Business

      We operate two principal lines of business under our bank — the traditional bank and BankDirect, an Internet-only bank that is operated as a division of our bank. BankDirect, which provides a complete line of consumer deposit services but offers no credit products, has been a net provider of funds, and the traditional bank has been a net user of funds. In order to provide a consistent measure of the net interest margin for BankDirect, we use a multiple pool funds transfer rate to calculate credit for funds provided. This method takes into consideration the current market conditions during the reporting period.

      During the launch of BankDirect in 1999, we incurred approximately $1.9 million in start-up expenses. In 2000, we committed significant resources to advertising and marketing for BankDirect, including approximately $1.9 million spent on AAdvantage® miles and co-branded advertising with American Airlines AAdvantage®. As a result, our non-interest expense related to BankDirect increased to approximately $8.7 million in 2000.

      In February 2001, we reoriented BankDirect towards higher balance depositors and restructured the account fees charged by BankDirect. As a result, we reduced our non-interest expense related to BankDirect to $3.0 million for 2001 from $8.7 million in 2000. In addition, our higher fees resulted in an increase in non-interest income for 2001 to approximately $300,000 from approximately $30,000 in 2000. The historical results below illustrate the evolving role and focus of BankDirect in our business. As management’s approach to evaluating the operating performance of BankDirect changes, management will continue to assess the appropriate reporting of BankDirect as a separate segment.

Loan Portfolio. Our loan portfolio has grown at an annual rate of 176%, 44% and 24% in 2000, 2001 and 2002, respectively, reflecting the build-up of our lending operations. Our business plan focuses primarily on lending to middle market businesses and high net worth individuals, and accordingly, commercial and real estate loans have comprised a majority of our loan portfolio since we commenced operations, increasing from 48.4% of total loans at December 31, 1998 to 67.8% of total loans at June 30, 2003. Construction loans have decreased from 41.1% of the portfolio at December 31, 1998 to 17.0% of the portfolio at June 30, 2003. Consumer loans have decreased from 10.5% of the portfolio at December 31, 1998 to 1.6% of the portfolio at June 30, 2003. Loans held for sale, which are principally residential mortgage loans being warehoused for sale (typically within 30 days), fluctuate based on the level of market demand in the product.

      We originate substantially all of the loans held in our portfolio, except in certain instances we have purchased individual leases and lease pools (primarily commercial and industrial equipment and vehicles), as well as select loan participations and USDA government guaranteed loans.

      We continue to lend primarily in Texas. As of June 30, 2003, a substantial majority of the principal amount of the loans in our portfolio was to businesses and individuals in Texas. As of June 30, 2003, approximately 77% of our total loans originated out of our Dallas banking centers. This geographic concentration subjects the loan portfolio to the general economic conditions in Texas. Within the loan portfolio, loans to the services industry were $445.2 million, or 35.6%, of total loans at June 30, 2003. Other notable concentrations include $244.4 million in personal/ household loans (which includes loans to certain high net worth individuals for commercial purposes and mortgage loans held for sale, in addition to consumer loans), $141.7 million in petrochemical and mining loans, and $134.1 million to the contracting industry. The risks created by these concentrations have been considered by management in the determination of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. Management believes the allowance for loan losses is adequate to cover estimated losses on loans at each balance sheet date.

Summary of Loan Loss Experience

      The provision for loan losses is a charge to earnings to maintain the reserve for loan losses at a level consistent with management’s assessment of the loan portfolio in light of current economic conditions and market trends. We recorded a provision of $2.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, $5.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2002, $5.8 million for 2001 and $6.1 million for 2000. These provisions were made to reflect management’s assessment of the risk of loan losses specifically including the significant growth in outstanding loans during each of these periods.

      The reserve for loan losses is comprised of specific reserves for impaired loans and an estimate of losses inherent in the portfolio at the balance sheet date, but not yet identified with specific loans. We regularly evaluate our reserve for loan losses to maintain an adequate level to absorb loan losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Factors contributing to the determination of specific reserves include the credit worthiness of the borrower, and more specifically, changes in the expected future receipt of principal and interest payments and/or in the value of pledged collateral. All loans rated doubtful and all commitments rated substandard that are at least $1,000,000 are specifically reviewed for impairment as appropriate. A reserve is recorded on impaired loans when the carrying amount of the loan exceeds the discounted cash flows using the loan’s initial effective interest rate or the fair value of the collateral for certain collateral dependent loans. We consider all loans graded substandard or worse to be potential problem loans. As of June 30, 2003, there were $12.3 million in loans rated substandard or worse that are not included as non-accrual or 90 days past due and still accruing. As of December 31, 2002, there were $11.8 million in loans rated substandard or worse that are not included as non-accrual or 90 days past due and still accruing. For purposes of determining the general reserve, the portfolio is segregated by product types to recognize differing risk profiles among categories, and then further segregated by credit grades. Credit grades are assigned to all loans greater than $50,000. Each credit grade is assigned a risk factor, or reserve allocation percentage. These risk factors are

38


 

multiplied by the outstanding principal balance and risk-weighted by product type to calculate the required reserve. A similar process is employed to calculate that portion of the required reserve assigned to unfunded loan commitments.

      The reserve allocation percentages assigned to each credit grade have been developed based on an analysis of our historical loss rates and loss rates at selected peer banks, adjusted for certain qualitative factors, and on our management’s experience. Qualitative adjustments for such things as national and local economic conditions, market interest rates, changes in credit policies and lending standards, and changes in the trend and severity of problem loans can cause the estimation of future losses to differ from past experience. The unallocated portion of the general reserve, which takes into account industry comparable reserve ratios, serves to compensate for additional areas of uncertainty. In addition, the reserve considers the results of reviews performed by independent third party reviewers as reflected in their confirmations of assigned credit grades within the portfolio.

      The methodology used in the periodic review of reserve adequacy, which is performed at least quarterly, is designed to be dynamic and responsive to changes in portfolio credit quality and anticipated future credit losses. The changes are reflected in both the general reserve and in specific reserves as the collectibility of larger classified loans is regularly recalculated with new information. As our portfolio matures, historical loss ratios are being closely monitored. Eventually, our reserve adequacy analysis will rely more on our loss history and less on the experience of peer banks. Currently, the review of reserve adequacy is performed by executive management and presented to our board of directors for their review, consideration and ratification on a quarterly basis.

      The reserve for loan losses, which is available to absorb losses inherent in the loan portfolio, totaled $17.3 million at June 30, 2003, $14.5 million at December 31, 2002, $12.6 million at December 31, 2001 and $8.9 million at December 31, 2000. This represents 1.38%, 1.30%, 1.39% and 1.42% of total loans at June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

(1)  Interim period ratios are annualized.
 
(2)  The accrual of interest on loans is discontinued when there is a clear indication that the borrower’s cash flow may not be sufficient to meet payments as they become due, which is generally when a loan is 90 days past due. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, all previously accrued and unpaid interest is reversed. Interest income is subsequently recognized on a cash basis as long as the remaining unpaid principal amount of the loan is deemed to be fully collectible. If collectibility is questionable, then cash payments are applied to principal. If these loans had been current throughout their terms, interest and fees on loans would have increased by approximately $167,000, $202,000 and $771,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 and the year ended December 31, 2002, respectively.

Non-Performing Assets

      Non-performing assets include non-accrual loans and leases, accruing loans 90 or more days past due, restructured loans, and other repossessed assets. We had non-accrual loans and leases of $11,545,000, with reserves of $3,021,000, at June 30, 2003, non-accrual loans and leases of $2,776,000, with reserves of $832,000, at December 31, 2002, non-accrual loans and leases of $6,032,000, with reserves of $1,213,000, at December 31, 2001, a non-accrual lease of $572,000, with a specific reserve of $277,000, at December 31, 2000 and no non-accrual loans or leases at December 31, 1999 and 1998. The increase in non-accrual loans from December 31, 2002 to June 30, 2003 included a $3.5 million loan relationship that was restructured in 2001. Although the loan continues to pay as agreed, it has been returned to non-accrual status due to weaker financial results of the borrower. Additionally, a $3.9 million loan relationship, where payment default is not anticipated in the near future, was placed on non-accrual due to uncertain future cash flow capacity of the borrower. At June 30, 2003, our non-accrual loans and leases consisted of $4,344,000 in commercial loans, $3,991,000 in construction loans, $1,351,000 in real estate loans, $113,000 in consumer loans and $1,746,000 in leases. At December 31, 2002, our non-accrual loans and leases consisted of $641,000 in commercial loans, $1,367,000 in real estate loans, $26,000 in consumer loans and $742,000 in leases. At December 31, 2001, our non-accrual loans and leases consisted of $5,767,000 in commercial loans and $265,000 in leases. At June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 and 2001, we had $1,145,00, $135,000 and $384,000, respectively, in accruing loans past due 90 days or more. At June 30, 2003, $1,095,000 of the accruing loans past due 90 days or more are 100% government guaranteed. We had one loan relationship in the amount of $5,013,000 that was restructured and returned to accrual status during 2001. The restructuring included a charge-off and a principal reduction from the borrower. Interest income recorded on impaired loans during the six months ended June 30, 2003 and the year ended December 31, 2002 was approximately $60,000 and $64,000, respectively. Additional interest income that would have been recorded if the loans had been current during the six months ended June 30, 2003 and the year ended December 31, 2002 totaled $167,000 and $771,000, respectively. At June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, we had $87,000 and $181,000, respectively, in other repossessed assets.

      Generally, we place loans on non-accrual when there is a clear indication that the borrower’s cash flow may not be sufficient to meet payments as they become due, which is generally when a loan is 90 days past due.

      A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due (both principal and interest) according to the terms of the loan agreement. Reserves on impaired loans are measured based on the present value of the expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or the fair value of the underlying collateral.

Securities Portfolio

      Securities are identified as either held-to-maturity or available-for-sale based upon various factors, including asset/liability management strategies, liquidity and profitability objectives, and regulatory requirements. Held-to-maturity securities are carried at cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums or accretion of discounts. Available-for-sale securities are securities that may be sold prior to maturity based upon asset/liability management decisions. Securities identified as available-for-sale are carried at fair value. Unrealized gains or losses on available-for-sale securities are recorded as accumulated other comprehensive income in stockholders’ equity. Amortization of premiums or accretion of discounts on mortgage-backed securities is periodically adjusted for estimated prepayments.

      During the six months ended June 30, 2003, we maintained an average securities portfolio of $583.4 million compared to an average portfolio of $241.2 million for the same period in 2002. We used additional securities in 2003 to increase our earnings by taking advantage of market spreads between returns on assets and the cost of funding these assets. The June 30, 2003 portfolio was primarily comprised of mortgage-backed securities. The mortgage-backed securities in our portfolio at June 30, 2003 consisted primarily of government agency mortgage-backed securities.

      Our unrealized gain on the securities portfolio value increased from a gain of $10.0 million, which represented 1.8% of the amortized cost, at December 31, 2002, to a gain of $10.3 million, which represented 1.6% of the amortized cost, at June 30, 2003.

      During the year ended December 31, 2002, we maintained an average securities portfolio of $318.9 million compared to an average portfolio of $176.0 million for the same period in 2001. We used additional securities in 2002 to increase our earnings by taking advantage of market spreads between returns on assets and the cost of funding these assets. The December 31, 2002 portfolio was primarily comprised of mortgage-backed securities. The mortgage-backed securities in our portfolio at December 31, 2002 consisted solely of government agency mortgage-backed securities.

      Our unrealized gain on the securities portfolio value increased from a loss of $507,000, which represented 0.25% of the amortized cost, at December 31, 2001, to a gain of $10.0 million, which represented 1.8% of the amortized cost, at December 31, 2002.

      During 2001, we maintained an average securities portfolio of $176.0 million compared to an average portfolio of $203.0 million in 2000. The average securities portfolio was not increased in 2001 due to the strong growth in our loans. The December 31, 2001 portfolio was comprised primarily of mortgage-backed securities. The mortgage-backed securities in our portfolio at December 31, 2001 consisted primarily of government agency mortgage-backed securities.

      Our unrealized loss on the securities portfolio value increased slightly from $482,000, which represented 0.23% of the amortized cost, at December 31, 2000, to $507,000, which represented 0.25% of the amortized cost, at December 31, 2001.

      The average expected life of the mortgage-backed securities was 2.5 years at June 30, 2003, 2.4 years at December 31, 2002 and 4.7 years at December 31, 2001. The effect of possible changes in interest rates on our earnings and equity is discussed under “Interest Rate Risk Management.”

      The following presents the amortized cost and fair values of the securities portfolio at June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000.

Deposits

      We compete for deposits by offering a broad range of products and services to our customers. While this includes offering competitive interest rates and fees, the primary means of competing for deposits is convenience and service to our customers. However, our strategy to provide service and convenience to customers does not include a large branch network. Not including our planned banking center in Houston, scheduled to open in September 2003, our bank offers eight banking centers, courier services, and online banking. BankDirect, the Internet division of our bank, serves its customers on a 24 hours-a-day/ 7 days-a-week basis solely through Internet banking.

      Average deposits for the six months ended June 30, 2003 increased $322.1 million compared to the same period of 2002. Demand deposits, interest bearing transaction accounts, savings, and time deposits increased by $95.9 million, $12.0 million, $59.6 million, and $154.5 million, respectively, during the six months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the same period of 2002. The average cost of deposits decreased in 2003 mainly due to lower market interest rates.

      Average deposits for the year ended December 31, 2002 increased $176.5 million compared to the same period of 2001. Demand deposits, interest bearing transaction accounts, and time deposits increased by $55.8 million, $11.5 million, and $120.9 million, respectively, during the year ended December 31, 2002 as compared to the same period of 2001. Savings accounts decreased by $11.7 million. The average cost of deposits decreased in 2002 mainly due to lower market interest rates.

      Average deposits for 2001 increased $237.6 million compared to 2000. Demand deposits, interest bearing transaction accounts, savings, and time deposits increased by $51.0 million, $21.5 million, $77.3 million and $87.9 million, respectively, in 2001 compared to 2000. The average cost of deposits decreased in 2001 mainly due to lower market interest rates and BankDirect’s reorientation toward higher deposit customers and its restructuring of account fees.

      As with our loan portfolio, most of our deposits are from businesses and individuals in Texas, and particularly the Dallas metropolitan area. As of June 30, 2003, approximately 84% of our total deposits originated out of our Dallas banking centers. Uninsured deposits at June 30, 2003 were 64% of total deposits compared to 57% of total deposits at December 31, 2002, 47% of total deposits at December 31, 2001 and 36% of total deposits at December 31, 2000. Uninsured deposits as used in this presentation for 2001 and 2000 was based on a simple analysis of account balances over and under $100,000 and does not reflect combined ownership and other account styling that would determine insurance based on FDIC regulations. The presentation for 2003 and 2002 does reflect combined ownership, but does not reflect all of the account styling that would determine insurance based on FDIC regulations.

      At June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, approximately 9% of our total deposits were comprised of a number of short-term maturity deposits from a single municipal entity. We use these funds to increase our net interest income from excess securities that we pledge as collateral for these deposits.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

      In general terms, liquidity is a measurement of our ability to meet our cash needs. Our objective in managing our liquidity is to maintain our ability to meet loan commitments, purchase securities or repay deposits and other liabilities in accordance with their terms, without an adverse impact on our current or future earnings. Our liquidity strategy is guided by policies, which are formulated and monitored by our senior management and our bank’s balance sheet committee, and which take into account the marketability of assets, the sources and stability of funding and the level of unfunded commitments. We regularly evaluate all of our various funding sources with an emphasis on accessibility, stability, reliability and cost-effectiveness. For the year ended December 31, 2002 and the six months ended June 30, 2003, our principal source of funding has been our customer deposits, supplemented by our short-term and long-term borrowings, primarily from securities sold under repurchase agreements and federal funds purchased from our downstream correspondent bank relationships (which consist of banks that are considered to be smaller than our bank).

      Since early 2001, our liquidity needs have primarily been fulfilled through growth in our traditional bank customer and stockholder deposits. Our goal is to obtain as much of our funding as possible from deposits of these customers and stockholders, which as of June 30, 2003, comprised $952.7 million, or 71.1%, of total deposits, compared to $810.3 million, or 67.7%, of total deposits, at December 31, 2002. These traditional deposits are generated principally through development of long-term relationships with customers and stockholders.

      In addition to deposits from our traditional bank customers and stockholders, we also have access to incremental consumer deposits through BankDirect, our Internet banking facility, and through brokered retail certificates of deposit, or CDs. As of June 30, 2003, BankDirect deposits comprised $252.6 million, or 18.8%, of total deposits, and brokered retail CDs comprised $135.0 million, or 10.1%, of total deposits. Our dependence on Internet deposits and retail brokered CDs is limited by our internal funding guidelines, which as of June 30, 2003, limited borrowing from these sources to 15-25% and 10-20%, respectively, of total deposits.

      Additionally, we have borrowing sources available to supplement deposits and meet our funding needs. These borrowing sources include federal funds purchased from our downstream correspondent bank relationships and from our upstream correspondent bank relationships (which consist of banks that are considered to be larger than our bank), securities sold under repurchase agreements, treasury, tax and loan notes, and advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank, or FHLB. As of June 30, 2003, our borrowings consisted of a total of $279.6 million of securities sold under repurchase agreements, $111.2 million of downstream federal funds purchased, $45.0 million of upstream federal funds purchased, $13.7 million from customer repurchase agreements, $50.0 million of FHLB borrowings and $3.5 million of treasury, tax and loan notes. Credit availability from the FHLB is based on our bank’s financial and operating condition and borrowing collateral we hold with the FHLB. At June 30, 2003, borrowings from the FHLB consisted of approximately $50.0 million of overnight advances bearing interest at 1.4%. Our unused FHLB borrowing capacity at June 30, 2003 was approximately $386.0 million. As of June 30, 2003, we had unused upstream

federal fund lines available from commercial banks of approximately $52.8 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2003, our average borrowings from these sources were $496.1 million or 26.3% of average assets, which is well within our internal funding guidelines, which limit our dependence on borrowing sources to 25-30% of total assets. In prior periods, our internal funding guidelines limited our dependence on borrowing sources to 20-25% of total assets. In 2002, we increased this internal guideline in order to implement management’s strategy of increasing the investment securities portfolio funded by term repurchase agreements. In June 2003, we unwound approximately $139 million of these term repurchase agreements and replaced a significant portion of that amount with new securities repurchase agreements subject to lower interest rates, with the remainder replaced with overnight funds. A significant portion of these overnight funds were replaced with deposits when we completed our acquisition of the outstanding deposit accounts of Bluebonnet Savings Bank FSB, which occurred on August 8, 2003. See “Business — Acquisition of Bluebonnet Savings Deposits.” The maximum amount of other borrowings outstanding at any month-end during the six months ended June 30, 2003 was $516.2 million, or 27.2% of total assets.

      On November 19, 2002, our subsidiary Texas Capital Bancshares Statutory Trust I issued $10,000,000 of its Floating Rate Capital Securities Cumulative Trust Preferred Securities (the 2002 Trust Preferred) in a private offering. On April 10, 2003, our subsidiary Texas Capital Bancshares Statutory Trust II issued $10,000,000 of its Floating Rate Capital Securities Cumulative Trust Preferred Securities (the 2003 Trust Preferred) in a private offering. Proceeds of the 2002 Trust Preferred and the 2003 Trust Preferred were invested in related series of our Floating Rate Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Securities (the Subordinated Debentures). After deducting underwriters’ compensation and other expenses of the offerings, the net proceeds were available to us to increase capital and for general corporate purposes, including use in investment and lending activities.

      The interest rate on the Subordinated Debentures issued in connection with the 2002 Trust Preferred adjusts every three months and is currently 4.45%. The interest rate on the Subordinated Debentures issued in connection with the 2003 Trust Preferred adjusts every three months and is currently 4.54%. Interest payments on the Subordinated Debentures are deductible for federal income tax purposes. The payment by us of the principal and interest on the Subordinated Debentures is subordinated and junior in light of payment to the prior payment in full of all of our senior indebtedness, whether outstanding at this time or incurred in the future.

      The 2002 Trust Preferred and the related Subordinated Debentures mature in November 2032 and the 2003 Trust Preferred and the related Subordinated Debentures mature in April 2033. The 2002 Trust Preferred, the 2003 Trust Preferred and the related Subordinated Debentures also may be redeemed prior to maturity if certain events occur.

      As of June 30, 2003, our contractual obligations and commercial commitments, other than deposit liabilities, were as follows (Unaudited):

Critical Accounting Policies

      The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) recently issued guidance for the disclosure of “critical accounting policies.” The SEC defines “critical accounting policies” as those that are most important to the presentation of a company’s financial condition and results, and require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.

      We follow financial accounting and reporting policies that are in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The more significant of these policies are summarized in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements. Not all these significant accounting policies require management to make difficult, subjective, or complex judgments. However, the policies noted below could be deemed to meet the SEC’s definition of critical accounting policies.

      Management considers the policies related to the allowance for loan losses as the most critical to the financial statement presentation. The total allowance for loan losses includes activity related to allowances calculated in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, and SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies. The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged to current earnings. The amount maintained

48


 

in the allowance reflects management’s continuing evaluation of the loan losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses is comprised of specific reserves assigned to certain classified loans and general reserves. Factors contributing to the determination of specific reserves include the credit-worthiness of the borrower, and more specifically, changes in the expected future receipt of principal and interest payments and/or in the value of pledged collateral. A reserve is recorded when the carrying amount of the loan exceeds the discounted estimated cash flows using the loan’s initial effective interest rate or the fair value of the collateral for certain collateral dependent loans. For purposes of determining the general reserve, the portfolio is segregated by product types in order to recognize differing risk profiles among categories, and then further segregated by credit grades. See “Summary of Loan Loss Experience” for further discussion of the risk factors considered by management in establishing the allowance for loan losses.

      Management considers the policies related to income taxes to be critical to the financial statement presentation. We utilize the liability method in accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon the difference between the values of the assets and liabilities as reflected in the financial statements and their related tax basis using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to be recovered or settled. As changes in tax law or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes. A valuation reserve is provided against deferred tax assets unless it is more likely than not that such deferred tax assets will be realized.

      We had a gross deferred tax asset of $7.8 million at June 30, 2003 (unaudited). In 2003, as a result of a reassessment of our ability to generate sufficient earnings to allow the utilization of our deferred tax assets, we believe it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized. Accordingly, in compliance with SFAS No. 109, we reversed the valuation allowance and certain related tax reserves during the period.

New Accounting Standards

      In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, and No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. SFAS 141 requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations completed after June 30, 2001. SFAS 141 also includes guidance on the initial recognition and measurement of goodwill and other intangible assets arising from business combinations completed after June 30, 2001. SFAS 142 prohibits the amortization of goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives. SFAS 142 requires that these assets be reviewed for impairment at least annually. Intangible assets with finite lives will continue to be amortized over their estimated useful lives. Additionally, SFAS 142 requires that goodwill included in the carrying value of equity method investments no longer be amortized.

      We have tested goodwill for impairment using the two-step process prescribed in SFAS 142. The first step is a screen for potential impairment, while the second step measures the amount of the impairment, if any. We performed the first of the required impairment tests of goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets as of January 1, 2002 in the first quarter of 2002 and an annual assessment as of October 1, 2002, and, in each case, no impairment was noted. We will test for impairment again on October 1, 2003. We have no reason to believe that there will be an impairment charge in 2003.

      Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation (FIN) No. 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others — an Interpretation of FASB Statements No. 5, 57 and 107 and Rescission of FASB Interpretation No. 34.” FIN 45 elaborates on the disclosures to be made by a guarantor in its interim and annual financial statements about its obligations under certain guarantees that it has issued. It also clarifies that a guarantor is required to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee. The initial recognition and measurement provisions of FIN 45 are applicable on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. The disclosure requirements of FIN 45 are effective for financial statements of interim or annual periods ending after December 15, 2002, and were adopted in our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2002. Implementation of the remaining provisions of FIN 45 during the first half of 2003 did not have a significant impact on our financial statements.

      FIN No. 46 “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51.” FIN 46 establishes accounting guidance for consolidation of variable interest entities (VIE) that function to support the activities of the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary of a VIE entity is the entity that absorbs a majority of the VIE’s expected losses, receives a majority of the VIE’s expected residual returns, or both, as a result of ownership, controlling interest, contractual relationship or other business relationship with a VIE. Prior to the implementation of FIN 46, VIEs were generally consolidated by an enterprise when the enterprise had a controlling financial interest through ownership of a majority of voting interest in the entity. The provisions of FIN 46 were effective immediately for all arrangements entered into after January 31, 2003, and are otherwise effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. Texas Capital Bancshares Statutory Trust II was formed subsequent to January 31, 2003 for the purpose of issuing $10 million of Trust Preferred Securities (See Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements) and accordingly is currently subject to the requirements of FIN 46. Texas Capital Bancshares Statutory Trust I was formed prior to January 31, 2003 to issue $10 million of Trust Preferred Securities (See Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements) and will be subject to FIN 46 in the third quarter of 2003. We currently believe the continued consolidation of Texas Capital Bancshares Statutory Trust II is appropriate under FIN 46. However, the application of FIN 46 to this type of trust is an emerging issue and a possible unintended consequence of FIN 46 is the deconsolidation of these trusts. The deconsolidation of Texas Capital Bancshares Statutory Trust I & II would not have a material effect on our consolidated balance sheet or our consolidated statement of operations. In July 2003, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System issued a supervisory letter instructing bank holding

50


 

companies to continue to include the trust preferred securities in their Tier I capital for regulatory capital purposes until notice is given to the contrary. The Federal Reserve intends to review the regulatory implications of any accounting treatment changes and, if necessary or warranted, provide further appropriate guidance. There can be no assurance that the Federal Reserve will continue to allow institutions to include trust preferred securities in Tier I capital for regulatory capital purposes. As of June 30, 2003, assuming we were not allowed to include the $20 million in trust preferred securities issued by Texas Capital Bancshares Statutory Trust I and Texas Capital Bancshares Statutory Trust II in Tier 1 capital, the Corporation would still exceed the regulatory required minimums for capital adequacy purposes (see Note 13 to the consolidated financial statements).

      SFAS No. 149, “Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.” SFAS 149 amends and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts and for hedging activities under SFAS 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.” The amendments (i) reflect decisions of the Derivatives Implementation Group; (ii) reflect decisions made by the Financial Accounting Standards Board in conjunction with other projects dealing with financial instruments; and (iii) address implementation issues related to the application of the definition of a derivative. SFAS 149 also modifies various other existing pronouncements to conform with the changes made to SFAS 133. SFAS 149 is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003, and for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003, with all provisions applied prospectively. Adoption of SFAS 149 on July 1, 2003 did not have a significant impact on our financial statements.

      SFAS No. 150, “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity.” SFAS 150 establishes standards for how an issuer classifies, measures and discloses in its financial statements certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. SFAS 150 requires that an issuer classify financial instruments that are within its scope as a liability, in most circumstances. Such financial instruments include (i) financial instruments that are issued in the form of shares that are mandatorily redeemable; (ii) financial instruments that embody an obligation to repurchase the issuer’s equity shares, or are indexed to such an obligation, and that require the issuer to settle the obligation by transferring assets; (iii) financial instruments that embody an obligation that the issuer may settle by issuing a variable number of its equity shares if, at inception, the monetary value of the obligation is predominately based on a fixed amount, variations in something other than the fair value of the issuer’s equity shares or variations inversely related to changes in the fair value of the issuer’s equity shares; and (iv) certain freestanding financial instruments. SFAS 150 is effective for contracts entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and is otherwise effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. Adoption of SFAS 150 on July 1, 2003 did not have a significant impact on our financial statements.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk

      Market risk is a broad term for the risk of economic loss due to adverse changes in the fair value of a financial instrument. These changes may be the result of various factors, including interest rates, foreign exchange rates, commodity prices and/or equity prices.

      We are subject to market risk primarily through the effect of changes in interest rates on our portfolio of assets. The effect of other changes, such as foreign exchange rates, commodity prices and/or equity prices, do not pose significant market risk to us.

      The responsibility for managing market risk rests with the Balance Sheet Management Committee, which operates under policy guidelines established by our board of directors. The negative acceptable variation in net interest income due to a 200 basis point increase or decrease in interest rates is generally limited by these guidelines to +/-10%. These guidelines also establish maximum levels for short-term borrowings, short-term assets and brokered deposits. They also establish minimum levels for unpledged assets, among other things. Compliance with these guidelines is the ongoing responsibility of the Balance Sheet Management Committee, with exceptions reported to our board of directors on a quarterly basis.

Interest Rate Risk Management

      We perform a sensitivity analysis to identify interest rate risk exposure on net interest income. We quantify and measure interest rate exposure using a model to dynamically simulate the effect of changes in net interest income relative to changes in interest rates over the next twelve months based on three interest rate scenarios. These are a “most likely” rate scenario and two “shock test” scenarios.

      The “most likely” rate scenario is based on the consensus forecast of future interest rates published by independent sources. These forecasts incorporate future spot rates and relevant spreads of instruments that are actively traded in the open market. The Federal Reserve’s Federal Funds target affects short-term borrowing; the prime lending rate and the London Interbank Offering Rate are the basis for most of our variable-rate loan pricing.

      The 10-year mortgage rate is also monitored because of its effect on prepayment speeds for mortgage-backed securities. These are our primary interest rate exposures. We are currently not using derivatives to manage our interest rate exposure.

      The two standard “shock test” scenarios assume a sustained parallel 200 basis point increase or decrease in interest rates. As short term rates have continued to fall since 2001 we could not assume interest rate changes of 200 basis points as the results of the decreasing rates scenario would be negative rates. Therefore, our “shock test” scenarios with respect to decreases in rates now assume a decrease of 100 basis points in the current interest rate environment. In prior periods, we had assumed 150 basis point increases and decreases in our modeling scenarios. We will continue to evaluate these scenarios as interest rates change, until short term rates rise above 2.00%.

      Our interest rate risk exposure model incorporates assumptions regarding the level of interest rate or changes in outstanding balances on indeterminable maturity deposits (demand deposits, interest bearing transaction accounts and savings accounts) for a given level of market rate changes. These assumptions have been developed through a combination of historical analysis and future expected pricing behavior. Changes in prepayment behavior of mortgage-backed securities, residential, and commercial mortgage loans in each rate environment are captured using industry estimates of prepayment speeds for various coupon segments of the portfolio. The impact of planned growth and new business activities is factored into the simulation model.
