Net interest margin and gezegde

 Net interest margin and Net interest income were stronger than expected, as BAC kept a tight lid on deposit pricing, shrank the securities portfolio and delivered strong loan growth. This should help reduce investor concerns on the bank's ability to manage through the flat yield curve.

 Strong loan and deposit growth and the bank's ability to control deposit costs more than offset margin compression pressure from the flat yield curve (in 2005).

 Our 3 percent increase in net income was driven by strong loan growth, an improved net interest margin and controlled growth of non-interest expense.

 Loan growth and strong net-interest margins continue to be the engines that drive our profitability. With fairly low cost of funds and a net-interest margin that grew to over 6 percent at the end of the quarter, our spreads are yielding very healthy returns to our bottom line. Even with the steady climb in short-term interest rates by the Federal Reserve Bank over the last 18 months, our loan pipeline remains very strong with over $100 million in pending applications.

 In addition, the earnings from securities purchased in 2005 and the first quarter of 2006 added to profitability, but slowed growth in the net interest margin. We continue to employ hedging strategies to protect net interest income should short-term interest rates decline.

 Next fiscal year we expect continuing strong fee income growth and improvement in the loan-deposit spread as interest rates start to rise.

 Loan and deposit growth was strong across all markets. Total assets at year-end were $5.9 billion, a 15% increase from a year ago. Loans increased $144 million during the fourth quarter, or 14% on an annualized basis, and helped drive the increase in net interest revenue. Our net interest margin rose to 4.20%, up 15 basis points from a year ago and up three basis points from last quarter, as increasing short-term interest rates continued to positively affect our slightly asset-sensitive balance sheet. Fee revenue, excluding securities losses taken in the fourth quarter of 2005, was up 12%, reflecting increases in nearly every category.

 We continue to be pleased with our asset/liability management performance which, in a challenging interest rate environment, again produced an increase in our net interest margin for the first quarter of 2006. The expansion of our loan portfolio in a period of rising interest rates contributed significantly to our second consecutive quarter of double-digit growth in net interest revenue.

 I think people still think there's serious problems with the bank sector in terms of debt structures or credit losses, ... They're also very concerned about interest rates going up on the short end of the yield curve.

We anticipate core loan growth will continue to be within our targeted range of 10% to 14%. Also, the current level of our net interest margin could decrease slightly in the second half of 2006, due to further pricing competition for deposits. Our outlook assumes a stable economic environment and continued strong credit quality.

 Although our overall results were adversely affected by difficult markets, we recorded strong growth in our loan book and produced record interest income and fee income.

 Strong loan growth and an improving net interest margin contributed to these record results at the end of our seventh year of operations.

 Anybody who tells you that a flat yield curve is fine or that rising interest rates are good for the banking industry isn't in the same banking industry. Clearly these things are not helpful, but there are ways to manage through it.

 The Bank has offered somewhat of a compromise to the commercial banks by offering them interest on the money in the aggregate deposits. This move is some financial juggling on the part of the Bank as they have removed the interest paid on special deposits and have added it to the interest bearing deposit account.
