Central Standard Time on July 18, 2002. FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: July 18, 2002 SIMMONS FIRST ANNOUNCES 27% INCREASE IN EARNINGS ------------------------------------------------ Pine Bluff, Arkansas - Simmons First National Corporation today announced record quarterly earnings of $5,705,000, or $0.79 diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of 2002. These earnings reflect a 27.2% increase in net income and 25.4% increase in diluted earnings per share over the second quarter 2001. Return on average assets and return on average stockholders' equity for the three-month period ended June 30, 2002, was 1.18% and 12.17%, compared to 0.93% and 10.16%, respectively, for the same period in 2001. "We are very pleased with second quarter 2002 results," said J. Thomas May, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Quarterly earnings were at a record level, primarily due to a significant improvement in the Company's net interest margin, combined with the change in the accounting standards related to the amortization of goodwill." May also commented, "Despite a 3.9% reduction in our loan portfolio from the second quarter of 2001, we were able to improve our net interest income 13.0% through a reduction in interest expense and an increase in earning assets. As previously reported, the reduction in the loan portfolio is the result of a high level of single family residential loans being refinanced in the secondary market, a decrease in consumer lending activities resulting from car manufacturer incentives along with a general slowdown in consumer spending, and some temporary payoffs of large lines of credits that are still customers of the bank." Earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2002, were $10,646,000, or $1.48 diluted earnings per share. These earnings reflect a 17.8% increase in net income and a 16.5% increase in diluted earnings per share over the same six-month period last year. Average quarter to date total assets for the Corporation during the second quarter of 2002 were $1.944 billion, an increase of $18.5 million over the average for the second quarter of 2001. Stockholders' equity at the end of the second quarter of 2002 was $188.9 million, a $10.4 million, or 5.8%, increase from June 30, 2001. As of June 30, 2002, the allowance for loan losses as a percent of total loans was 1.65%, non-performing loans were 1.11% of total loans, and the allowance for loan losses equaled 149% of non-performing loans.
