UMB FINANCIAL CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2010 (UNAUDITED)

1. Financial Statement Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of UMB Financial Corporation and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) after elimination of all significant intercompany transactions. In the opinion of management of the Company, all adjustments, which were of a normal recurring nature and necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations, have been made. The results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented may not be indicative of the results of the full year. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.

In the previously filed Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2009, the Company transposed proceeds from maturities and proceeds from sales of available for sale securities in the investing activities section of the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows. As a result, the accompanying 2009 condensed consolidated statement of cash flows has been corrected to list the appropriate title with the appropriate numeric total. There is no quantitative change in cash flows of the Company as a result of this adjustment.

2. Summary of Accounting Policies

The Company is a multi-bank financial holding company, which offers a wide range of banking and other financial services to its customers through its branches and offices in the states of Missouri, Kansas, Colorado, Illinois, Oklahoma, Arizona, Nebraska, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Indiana, Wisconsin, Utah, New Jersey, and Massachusetts. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. These estimates and assumptions also impact reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. A summary of the significant accounting policies to assist the reader in understanding the financial presentation is listed in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.

Interest-bearing Due From Banks

Amounts due from the Federal Reserve Bank which are interest-bearing for all periods presented, and amounts due from certificates of deposits held at other financial institutions are included in interest-bearing due from banks. The amount due from the Federal Reserve Bank totaled $467.7 million and $238.9 million at September 30, 2010 and September 30, 2009, respectively, and is considered cash and cash equivalents. The amounts due from certificates of deposit totaled $191.6 million and $300.5 million at September 30, 2010 and September 30, 2009, respectively.

This table provides a summary of cash and due from banks as presented on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as of September 30, 2010 and September 30, 2009 (in thousands):

Per Share Data

Basic income per share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. Diluted quarterly per share data includes the dilutive effect of 218,495 and 323,413 shares issuable upon the exercise of options granted by the Company and outstanding at September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Diluted year-to-date income per share includes the dilutive effect of 250,966 and 319,453 shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options granted by the Company and outstanding at September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Options issued under employee benefit plans to purchase 1,107,949 shares of common stock were outstanding at September 30, 2010, but were not included in the computation of quarterly and year-to-date diluted EPS because the options were anti-dilutive. Options issued under employee benefit plans to purchase 784,904 shares of common stock were outstanding at September 30, 2009, but were not included in the computation of quarterly and year-to-date diluted EPS because the options were anti-dilutive.

3. New Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140 In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 166 “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets-an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140” or Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 860. The objective of this Statement is to improve the relevance, representational faithfulness, and comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its financial statements about a transfer of financial assets; the effects of a transfer on its financial position, financial performance, and cash flows; and a transferor’s continuing involvement, if any, in transferred financial assets. This Statement removes the concept of a qualifying special-purpose entity from SFAS No. 140 and removes the exception from applying FASB Interpretation No. 46 to qualifying special-purpose entities. The Company adopted this statement on January 1, 2010 with no impact on its financial position or results of operations.

Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167, “Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R)” or ASC 810, which amends the consolidation guidance applicable to variable interest entities. The amendments to the consolidation guidance affect all entities currently within the scope of FIN 46(R), as well as qualifying special-purpose entities that are currently excluded from the scope of FIN 46(R). The Company adopted this statement on January 1, 2010 with no impact on its financial position or results of operations.

Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (ASU 2010-06), which amends ASC 820, adding new requirements for disclosures for Levels 1 and 2, separate disclosures of purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements relating to Level 3 measurements and clarification of existing fair value disclosures. ASU 2010-06 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the requirement to provide Level 3 activity of purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements on a gross basis, which will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. The Company adopted this statement on January 1, 2010 with no impact on its financial position or results of operations except for additional financial statement disclosures.

Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses In July 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-20, “Disclosures About the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses” (ASU 2010-10), which amends ASC 310 by requiring more robust and disaggregated disclosures about the credit quality of an entity’s financial receivables and its allowance for credit losses. ASU 2010-20 will be effective for the Company for the annual reporting period ending December 31, 2010. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that this standard will have on its financial statement disclosures.

The unrealized losses in the Company’s investments in direct obligations of U.S. government agencies, federal agency mortgage backed securities, and municipal securities were caused by interest rate risk. Because the Company does not have the intent to sell these securities and it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell these securities before a recovery of fair value, the Company does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at September 30, 2010.

8. Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees

In the normal course of business, the Company is party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in order to meet the financing needs of its customers and to reduce its own exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, commercial letters of credit, standby letters of credit, futures contracts, forward foreign exchange contracts and spot foreign exchange contracts. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the consolidated balance sheet. The contract or notional amount of those instruments reflects the extent of involvement the Company has in particular classes of financial instruments. Many of the commitments expire without being drawn upon; therefore, the total amount of these commitments does not necessarily represent the future cash requirements of the Company.

The following table summarizes the Company’s off-balance-sheet financial instruments.

Contract or Notional Amount (in thousands):

 

     September 30,
2010
     December 31,
2009
 

Commitments to extend credit for loans (excluding credit card loans)

   $ 1,740,185       $ 1,868,869   

Commitments to extend credit under credit card loans

     1,454,829         1,320,416   

Commercial letters of credit

     2,386         3,538   

Standby letters of credit

     281,556         308,866   

Futures contracts

     19,000         13,300   

Forward foreign exchange contracts

     24,317         69,342   

Spot foreign exchange contracts

     6,040         5,513   

The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counterparty to the financial instruments for commitments to extend credit, commercial letters of credit, and standby letters of credit is represented by the contract or notional amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.

In the normal course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries are named defendants in various lawsuits and counter-claims. In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, none of these lawsuits are expected to have a materially adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

9. Business Segment Reporting

The Company has strategically aligned its operations into the following three reportable segments (collectively, “Business Segments”): Commercial Financial Services, Institutional Financial Services, and Personal Financial Services. The Business Segments were redefined during the first quarter of 2010 to better organize the Company’s business around customer needs. In 2009, the Business Segments were Commercial Banking and Lending, Payment and Technology Solutions, Banking Services, Consumer Services, Asset Management, and Fund Services. Business segment financial results produced by the Company’s internal management accounting system are evaluated regularly by the Executive Committee in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance for individual Business Segments. The management accounting system assigns balance sheet and income statement items to each business segment using methodologies that are refined on an ongoing basis. For comparability purposes, amounts in all periods are based on methodologies in effect at September 30, 2010.

The following summaries provide information about the activities of each segment:

Commercial Financial Services resulted in combining Commercial Banking and Lending with Treasury Management (previously a component of Payment and Technology Solutions). Commercial Financial Services serves the commercial lending and leasing, capital markets, and treasury management needs of the Company’s mid-market businesses and governmental entities by offering various products and services. Such services include commercial loans, letters of credit, loan syndication services, consultative services, and a variety of financial options for companies that need non-traditional banking services. Capital markets services include asset-based financing, asset securitization, equity and mezzanine financing, factoring, private and public placement of senior debt, as well as merger and acquisition consulting. Treasury management services include depository services, account reconciliation services, electronic fund transfer services, controlled disbursements, lockbox services, and remote deposit capture services.

Institutional Financial Services is a combination of Banking Services, Fund Services, and Asset Management services provided to institutional clients. This segment also includes consumer credit card services, formerly included in Consumer Services, and commercial credit card services, formerly included in Payment and Technology Solutions. Healthcare services, mutual fund cash management and international payments, previously included in Payment and Technology Solutions, are also included in this segment. Institutional Financial Services includes businesses such as the Company’s institutional investment services functions, Scout Investment Advisors, UMB Fund Services, corporate trust and escrow services as well as correspondent banking, investment banking, and UMB Healthcare Services. Products and services include bond trading transactions, cash letter collections, FiServ account processing, investment portfolio accounting and safekeeping, reporting for asset/liability management, and Fed funds transactions. UMB Fund Services provides fund administration and accounting, investor services and transfer agency, marketing and distribution, custody and alternative investment services.

Personal Financial Services combines Consumer Services and Asset Management services provided to personal clients. This segment combines the Company’s consumer bank with the individual investment and wealth management solutions. The range of services offered to UMB clients extends from a basic checking account to estate planning and trust services. Products and services include the Company’s bank branches, call center, internet banking and ATM network, deposit accounts, private banking, installment loans, home equity lines of credit, residential mortgages, small business loans, brokerage services, and insurance services in addition to a full spectrum of investment advisory, trust, and custody services.

Treasury and Other Adjustments includes asset and liability management activities and miscellaneous other items of a corporate nature not allocated to specific business lines. The assets within this segment include the Company’s investment portfolio. Corporate eliminations are also allocated to this segment.

10. Fair Value Measurements

The following table presents information about the Company’s assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2010, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized by the Company to determine such fair value.

Fair values determined by Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs utilize inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the hierarchy. In such cases, the fair value is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

Assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2010 (in thousands):

The fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities, including those financial assets and financial liabilities that are not measured and reported at fair value on a recurring basis or non-recurring basis is required to be disclosed. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments:

Cash and Short-Term Investments The carrying amounts of cash and due from banks, federal funds sold and resell agreements are reasonable estimates of their fair values.

Securities Available for Sale Fair values are based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes, if available. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices for similar securities.

Trading Securities Fair values for trading securities (including financial futures), are based on quoted market prices where available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices for similar securities.

Loans Fair values are estimated for portfolios with similar financial characteristics. Loans are segregated by type, such as commercial, real estate, consumer, and credit card. Each loan category is further segmented into fixed and variable interest rate categories. The fair value of loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit rating and for the same remaining maturities.

Deposit Liabilities The fair value of demand deposits and savings accounts is the amount payable on demand at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009. The fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the rates that are currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

Short-Term Debt The carrying amounts of federal funds purchased, repurchase agreements and other short-term debt are reasonable estimates of their fair value because of the short-term nature of their maturities.

Long-Term Debt Rates currently available to the Company for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities are used to estimate fair value of existing debt.

Other Off-Balance Sheet Instruments The fair value of loan commitments and letters of credit are determined based on the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreement and the present creditworthiness of the counterparties. Neither the fees earned during the year on these instruments nor their fair values at September 30, 2010 are significant to the Company’s consolidated financial position.

The estimated fair value of the Company’s financial instruments at September, 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 are as follows (in millions):

UMB FINANCIAL CORPORATION

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (CONTINUED)

FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2010 (UNAUDITED)

 

 

11. Acquisition

On July 30, 2010, UMB Advisors, LLC (“UMB Advisors”) and UMB Merchant Banc, LLC (“UMBMB”, together with UMB Advisors, the “Buyers”), a subsidiary of UMB Financial Corporation, completed the purchase of substantially all of the assets of Prairie Capital Management LLC (“Prairie Capital”) and PCM LLC (“PCM”) for cash of $25.9 million. Prairie Capital is in the business of providing investment management services, and PCM is the general partner of various investment funds and associated with Prairie Capital’s business. UMB Advisors purchased substantially all of the assets of Prairie Capital’s business, and UMBMB purchased substantially all of the assets of PCM’s business. This acquisition increased the Company’s assets under management base by $2.2 billion and increased the Company’s servicing assets by $2.6 billion. Goodwill amounted to $32.2 million with the remaining purchase price allocated to cash, furniture, fixtures, prepaid assets, and unearned income. Identifiable intangible assets amounted to $19.4 million. Total goodwill and intangible assets are inclusive of contingent earn-out payments based on revenue targets over the next five years. This earn-out liability was estimated to be $26.0 million at the purchase date.

On September 1, 2010, Scout Investment Advisors, Inc. (Scout), a wholly-owned subsidiary of UMB Financial Corporation, entered into an asset purchase agreement with Reams Asset Management Company, LLC (Reams), MME Investments, LLC, Mark M. Egan, David B. McKinney, Hilltop Capital, LLC, Thomas M. Fink, Stephen T. Vincent, Todd C. Thompson, Deanne B. Olson, and Daniel P. Spurgeon to purchase substantially all of the assets of Reams. Reams is a provider of investment management services to institutional clients and a manager of over $9.8 billion in fixed income assets. Under the purchase agreement, at closing, Scout will pay Reams an initial cash payment of $42.0 million, plus or minus a purchase price adjustment based upon Reams’ accrued revenues, prepaid expenses and accrued expenses, less a certain amount of cash. Reams will also be entitled to receive $1 million worth of unregistered common stock of UMB if at least ninety-five percent of the revenue of Reams is retained by Scout on the determination date as defined in the purchase agreement. Reams may also be entitled to receive annual earn-out payments during the next five years based upon performance measures defined by the purchase agreement for each year. This transaction is scheduled to close on November 30, 2010.

Following the closing of the transaction, Reams’ business will be operated as a division of Scout.

Overview

The Company focuses on the following four core strategies. Management believes these strategies will continue to improve net income and strengthen the balance sheet.

The first strategy is to grow the Company’s fee-based businesses. The emphasis on fee-based operations helps reduce the Company’s exposure to changes in interest rates. During the third quarter of 2010, noninterest income increased $9.6 million, or 11.9 percent, compared to the same period of 2009. The Company continues to emphasize its asset management, bankcard services, health care services, and treasury management solution businesses. In particular, during the third quarter of 2010, the increase in noninterest income is primarily attributable to increased trust and securities processing income. The increase in these fees for the three month period compared to the same period last year was primarily attributable to an increase in fee income from Scout Funds, fund administration and custody services, and revenues from the acquisition of Prairie Capital Management, LLC. Fee income from the Scout Funds increased by $3.2 million, or 36.0 percent, fund administration and custody services fees increased by $1.8 million, or 12.9 percent, and $1.6 million in increased fee revenues due to the acquisition.

The second strategy is a focus on net interest income through loan and deposit growth, which includes a focus on rate, volume and mix. Net interest income increased $2.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010, compared to one year ago. Total loans increased $268.6 million, or 6.2 percent, compared to third quarter of 2009. Total deposits increased $711.6 million, or 9.0 percent, compared to third quarter of 2009. , Of the total deposit growth, 25.9 percent came from non-interest-bearing deposits and is a primary driver of the decrease in total interest expense of $4.5 million, or 34.7 percent. Average earning assets increased by $1.1 billion, or 11.8 percent, compared to the third quarter of 2009 due to the increased deposit funding.

The third strategy is a focus on improving operating efficiencies. At September 30, 2010, the Company had 133 branches. Efficient utilization of our distribution network remains a priority. The Company emphasizes increasing its customer base by providing a broad offering of services through our existing network. These efforts have resulted in the total deposits growth previously discussed. The Company’s efficiency ratio for the quarter was 75.7 percent in 2010 and 71.7 percent in 2009. The Company continues to evaluate its cost structure for opportunities to moderate expense growth without sacrificing growth initiatives. The Company also continues to focus on cost savings through technology solutions that improve and automate processes.

The fourth strategy is a focus on capital management. Specifically, the Company continues to invest in organic growth; acquisition opportunities that make sense strategically, financially, operationally, and culturally; and focus on returning capital to shareholders. As an example of the Company putting capital to work, bankcard fees increased by $2.9 million, or 24.7 percent, for the three months ended September 30, 2010, compared to the same periods one year ago. This increase is directly associated with the acquisition of credit card portfolios since third quarter 2009. The Company repurchased 70,799 shares of common stock at an average price of $33.98 per share during the third quarter of 2010. The Company places a significant emphasis on the maintenance of a strong capital position, which management believes promotes investor confidence, provides access to funding sources under favorable terms, and enhances the Company’s ability to capitalize on business growth and acquisition opportunities. At September 30, 2010, the Company had $1.1 billion in shareholders equity, which resulted in a total risk-based capital ratio of 13.78 percent. This capital ratio is substantially higher than the 10 percent regulatory minimum to be considered well-capitalized.

Earnings Summary

The Company recorded consolidated net income of $22.8 million for the three-month period ended September 30, 2010, compared to $24.0 million for the same period a year earlier. This represents a 5.1 percent decrease over the three-month period ended September 30, 2009. Basic earnings per share for the third quarter of 2010 were $0.57 per share ($0.57 per share fully-diluted) compared to $0.60 per share ($0.59 per share fully-diluted) for the third quarter of 2009. Return on average assets and return on average common shareholders’ equity for the three-month period ended September 30, 2010 were 0.82 and 8.31 percent, respectively, compared to 0.97 and 9.43 percent for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009.

The Company recorded consolidated net income of $72.0 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010, compared to $65.6 million for the same period a year earlier. This represents a 9.7 percent increase over the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009. Basic earnings per share for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010 were $1.80 per share ($1.78 per share fully-diluted) compared to $1.62 per share ($1.61 per share fully-diluted) for the period in 2009. Return on average assets and return on average common shareholders’ equity for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010 were 0.88 and 9.09 percent, respectively, compared to 0.87 and 8.78 percent for the same period in 2009.

Net interest income for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010 increased $2.5 million, or 3.3 percent, and $6.5 million, or 2.9 percent, respectively, compared to the same period in 2009. These increases are primarily due to the reduced level of interest expense on deposits, which outpaced the reduction in interest income during both periods. For the three-month period ended September 30, 2010, average earning assets increased by $1.1 billion, or 11.8 percent, and for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010, they increased by $839.6, or 9.1 percent, compared to the same periods in 2009. Net interest margin, on a tax-equivalent basis, decreased to 3.23 percent and 3.24 percent for the three and nine-months periods ended September 30, 2010, compared to 3.51 percent and 3.44 percent for the same periods in 2009. These changes are discussed in greater detail below under Net Interest Income.

The provision for loan losses decreased by $0.6 million and increased by $3.5 million for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010, compared to the same periods in 2009. These changes are a direct result of applying the Company’s methodology for computing the allowance for loan losses. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans increased by 22 basis points to 1.59 percent as of September 30, 2010, compared to September 30, 2009. For a description of the Company’s methodology for computing the allowance for loan losses, please see the summary discussion of the Allowance for Loan Losses within the Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates subsection of the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” section in the Company’s 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Noninterest income increased by $9.6 million, or 11.9 percent, for the three-month period ended September 30, 2010 and increased by $38.8 million, or 17.1 percent, for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010, compared to the same periods one year ago. These increases are discussed in greater detail below under Noninterest Income.

Noninterest expense increased by $15.4 million, or 13.3 percent, for the three-month period ended September 30, 2010, and increased by $33.3 million, or 9.8 percent, for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010, compared to the same periods in 2009. These increases are discussed in greater detail below under Noninterest Expense.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income is a significant source of the Company’s earnings and represents the amount by which interest income on earning assets exceeds the interest expense paid on liabilities. The volume of interest-earning assets and the related funding sources, the overall mix of these assets and liabilities, and the rates paid on each affect net interest income. For the three-month period ended September 30, 2010, net interest income increased $2.5 million, or 3.3 percent, compared to the same period in 2009. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010, net interest income increased $6.5 million, or 2.9 percent, compared to the same period in 2009.

Table 1 shows the impact of earning asset rate changes compared to changes in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities. The Company continues to experience a repricing of these earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities during the recent interest rate cycle. While the Company continues to see declining rates, it has been able to improve net interest income. As illustrated in this table, net interest spread for the three months ended September 30, 2010 decreased by 19 basis points and net interest margin decreased by 28 basis points compared to the same period in 2009. Net interest spread for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 decreased by 12 basis points and net interest margin decreased by 21 basis points compared to the same period in 2009. These results are due to a favorable volume variance on earning assets coupled with a favorable rate variance on deposits, which has more than offset the unfavorable rate variance on earning assets. The combined impact of these variances has led to an increase in the Company’s net interest income.

The favorable rate variance on deposits is bolstered by the contribution from free funds. For the impact of the contribution from free funds, see the Analysis of Net Interest Margin within Table 2 below. Table 2 also illustrates how the changes in volume and rates have resulted in an increase in net interest income.

Although interest-free funds (total earning assets less interest-bearing liabilities) increased $404.3 million for the three-month period ended September 30, 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 and increased $403.7 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010 compared to the same period in 2009, the benefit from interest free funds declined by 9 basis points from the three months ended September 30, 2009, and declined by 8 basis points from the nine months ended September 30, 2009, due to decreases in interest rates.

Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses (ALL) represents management’s judgment of the losses inherent in the Company’s loan portfolio as of the balance sheet date. An analysis is performed quarterly to determine the appropriate balance of the ALL. This analysis considers items such as historical loss trends, a review of individual loans, migration analysis, current economic conditions, loan growth and characteristics, industry or segment concentration and other factors. This analysis is performed separately for each bank as regulatory agencies require

 

26


Table of Contents

that the adequacy of the ALL be maintained on a bank-by-bank basis. After the balance sheet analysis is performed for the ALL, the provision for loan losses is computed as the amount required to adjust the ALL to the appropriate level.

Based on the factors above, management of the Company expensed $7.7 million and $24.1 million related to the provision for loan losses for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010, compared to $8.3 million and $20.6 million for the same periods in 2009. As illustrated in Table 3 below, the ALL increased to 1.59 percent of total loans as of September 30, 2010, compared to 1.36 percent of total loans as of the same period in 2009.

Table 3 presents a summary of the Company’s ALL for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 and for the year ended December 31, 2009. Net charge-offs were $15.5 million for the first nine months of 2010, compared to $14.1 million for the same period in 2009. See “Credit Risk Management” under “Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in this report for information relating to nonaccrual loans, past due loans, restructured loans and other credit risk matters.

Noninterest Income

A key objective of the Company is the growth of noninterest income to enhance profitability through a diverse set of revenues. Fee-based services are typically non-credit related and not generally affected by fluctuations in interest rates.

The Company’s fee-based services provide the opportunity to offer multiple products and services, which management believes will more closely align the customer with the Company. The Company is currently emphasizing fee-based services including trust and securities processing, bankcard, brokerage, health care services, and treasury management. Management believes it can offer these products and services both efficiently and profitably, as most share common platforms and support structures. Table 4 below summarizes the components of noninterest income and the respective year-over-year comparison for each category.

Fee-based, or noninterest income (summarized in Table 4), increased by $9.6 million, or 11.9 percent, during the three months ended September 30, 2010, and increased by $38.8 million, or 17.1 percent, during the nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared to the same periods in 2009.

Trust and securities processing consists of fees earned on personal and corporate trust accounts, custody of securities services, trust investments and money management services, and servicing of mutual fund assets. The increase in these fees for the three and nine-month periods compared to the same periods last year was primarily attributable to an increase in fee income from Scout Funds, fund administration and custody services, and fee

revenue from the newly acquired Prairie Capital Management, LLC. Fee income from the Scout Funds for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010, increased by $3.2 million, or 36.0 percent, and by $11.5 million, or 49.6 percent, respectively. Fund administration and custody services fees for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010, increased by $1.8 million, or 12.9 percent, and $12.7 million, or 37.5 percent, respectively. Trust and securities processing fees are asset-based. As such, they are highly correlated to the change in market value of the assets. Thus, the related income for the remainder of the year will be affected by changes in the securities markets. Management continues to emphasize sales of services to both new and existing clients as well as increasing and improving the distribution channels, which lead to increased inflows into the Scout Funds.

Service charges on deposits decreased by $1.2 million, or 5.7 percent, and by $2.4 million, or 3.9 percent for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared to the same periods one year ago. This decrease is primarily due to new overdraft regulations enacted on July 21, 2010.

Bankcard fees increased by $2.9 million, or 24.7 percent, and by $6.8 million, or 20.1 percent for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared to the same periods one year ago. This increase is directly associated with the acquisition of credit card portfolios during the periods.

During the three months ended September 30, 2010, $0.8 million in pre-tax gains were recognized on the sales of securities available for sale, compared to $3.3 million during the same period in 2009. For the first nine months of 2010, $7.5 million in pre-tax gains were recognized on the sales of securities available for sale, compared to $5.2 million during the same period in 2009. These sales are part of an objective to monitor and control the Company’s interest rate sensitivity in an anticipated rising interest rate environment.

Noninterest expense increased by $15.4 million, or 13.3 percent, for the three months ended September 30, 2010, and by $33.3 million, or 9.8 percent, for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared to the same period in 2009. Table 5 above summarizes the components of noninterest expense and the respective year-over-year comparison for each category.

Salaries and employee benefits increased by $8.9 million, or 14.7 percent, for the three months ended September 30, 2010, and by $17.1 million, or 9.6 percent, for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared to the same period in 2009. These increases are primarily due to higher base salary, commission, and health insurance costs. Within each of these categories is the direct impact from the acquisitions during the periods. Salaries increased by $3.5 million, or 7.0 percent, and $5.9 million, or 4.8 percent, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared to the same periods in 2009. Commissions and bonuses increased by $5.1 million, or 31.3 percent, and $8.0 million, or 35.6 percent, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared to the same periods in 2009. Employee benefits costs increased by $0.4 million, or 4.0 percent, and $2.1 million, or 7.1 percent, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared to the same periods in 2009.

Processing fees increased $1.9 million, or 19.8 percent, for the three months ended September 30, 2010, and by $9.0 million, or 36.3 percent, for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared to the same period in 2009. This increase, which is correlated to the increase in trust and securities processing income noted above, is due to increased third party custodian fees related to international transactions from mutual fund clients and fees paid by the advisor to third-party distributors of the Scout Funds.

Income Tax Expense

The effective tax rate is 27.4 percent for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared to 27.6 percent for the same period in 2009.

Commercial Financial Services’ net income before taxes decreased $0.8 million, or 1.6 percent, to $45.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. The decrease in net income was driven primarily by an increase in noninterest expense of $4.9 million, or 6.0 percent, offset by a decrease in provision for loan loss of $1.9 million, or 18.7 percent, an increase in net interest income of $0.9 million, or 0.8 percent, and an increase in noninterest income of $1.4 million, or 5.5 percent. Noninterest expense increased due to higher allocated overhead costs compared to 2009. Total earning asset balances are up over the prior year by $40.0 million, or 1.2 percent; whereas, deposits and repurchase agreements increased by $206.0 million, 6.2 percent. Volume increases on both sides of the balance sheet are driving the increase in net interest margin. Noninterest income increased due to higher loan fees.

Institutional Financial Services’ net income before taxes decreased $3.6 million to $38.1 million from the same period in 2009. Noninterest income increased $33.2 million, offset by a $27.7 million increase in noninterest expense and a $4.3 million decrease in net interest income. Noninterest income increased due to a $11.5 million increase in advisory fees associated with the Scout Funds and a $12.7 million increase in fund administration and custody services income. Scout Fund fee income increased due to inflows of $1.1 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and overall market appreciation over last year. Fee income from the acquisition of J.D. Clark & Co., Inc. and market appreciation were the drivers of the increase in fund administration and custody services income compared to 2009. Credit card income increased $4.9 million due to increased processing fees. Credit card balances increased approximately $121.0 million compared to 2009 primarily from the acquisition of 5 credit card portfolios totaling approximately $90.0 million over the past year. Noninterest expense increased $3.4 million from third party custodial fees related to international transactions from mutual fund clients and increased $3.7 million in third party fees paid by the advisor to distributors of the Scout Funds. The other driver was an increase in salaries and benefits of $14.0 million due to increased commission expense related to the increased revenue in this segment as well as the addition of base salary expenses from the acquisition of J.D. Clark & Co., Inc. Net interest income decreased due to decreased funds transfer pricing on deposits in this segment.

Personal Financial Services’ net income before taxes increased by $13.8 million to $13.1 million compared to 2009. Several drivers contributed to this increase. Earning asset balances have decreased, but the rate of the decrease has slowed in 2010 as the indirect automobile portfolio runoff is slowing. This is offset by the growth in the home equity loan portfolio. Net interest income increased $10.0 million, or 14.6 percent, over 2009 due to decreased funds transfer pricing costs on assets and an increased funds transfer pricing on deposits in this segment. The deposit balances have also increased in this segment compared to 2009. Noninterest income increased $1.9 million, or 2.7 percent, from 2009. This increase was due to an increase in trust fee income related to the acquisition of Prairie Capital Management, LLC. This increase was offset by a reduction in deposit service charges as a result of changes in consumer behavior as a result of the new overdraft legislation that became effective during the quarter. Noninterest expense decreased $2.7 million, or 2.0 percent, over 2009. The decrease was primarily due to a decreased salaries and benefits expenses and decreased allocated overhead expenses.

The net income before tax for the Treasury and Other Adjustments category was $2.4 million for the first nine months of 2010, compared to net income before tax of $3.4 million for the same period in 2009.

Balance Sheet Analysis

Total assets of the Company as of September 30, 2010 decreased $323.3 million compared to December 31, 2009 and increased $1.1 million, or 10.8 percent, compared to September 30, 2009. The increase in total assets from September 2009 to September 2010 is a result of increased investment securities balances including trading securities of $678.8 million, or 15.1 percent. This asset balance increase is directly related to a corresponding increase in deposit balances between the same periods of $711.6 million, or 9.0 percent, and an increase in fed funds purchased and repurchase agreements of $285.5 million, or 24.9 percent. The decrease in total assets from December to September is primarily a result of the cyclical trend due to the pledging of investment securities and collateral required related to seasonal public fund repurchase agreements and deposits.

Total deposits increased slightly and federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreement to repurchase declined at September 30, 2010 compared to December 31, 2009. Deposits increased by $67.3 million, or 0.8 percent, from December to September, and federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreement to repurchase decreased by $495.4 million, or 25.7 percent, from December to September. This decline in securities sold under agreement to repurchase is primarily driven by the run-off of seasonal public fund tax deposits, as such tax deposits are generally higher around the end of the calendar year.

Loans

Loans represent the Company’s largest source of interest income. In addition to growing the commercial loan portfolio, management believes its middle market commercial business and its consumer business, including home equity and credit card loan products, are the market niches that represent its best opportunity to cross-sell fee-related services.

Total loan balances have increased $268.9 million, or 6.2 percent, compared to December 31, 2009 and increased $268.6 million, or 6.2 percent, at September 30, 2010 compared to September 30, 2009. The increase from December 31, 2009 is primarily a result of a 3.8 percent increase in commercial loans and a 11.4 percent increase in real estate loans. The increase at September 30, 2010 compared to September 30, 2009 was primarily related to a $242.3 million increase in real estate loans and a $38.1 million decrease in consumer loans. The increase in real estate loans is driven by home equity loans and commercial real estate loans.

Nonaccrual, past due and restructured loans are discussed under “Credit Risk Management” within “Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in this report.

Securities

The Company’s securities portfolio provides liquidity as a result of the composition and average life of the underlying securities. This liquidity can be used to fund loan growth or to offset the outflow of traditional funding sources. In addition to providing a potential source of liquidity, the securities portfolio can be used as a tool to manage interest rate sensitivity. The Company’s goal in the management of its securities portfolio is to maximize return within the Company’s parameters of liquidity goals, interest rate risk and credit risk. The Company maintains strong liquidity levels while investing in only high-grade securities. The securities portfolio generates the Company’s second largest component of interest income.

Investment securities totaled $5.2 billion at September 30, 2010, compared to $4.5 billion at September 30, 2009, and $5.0 billion at December 31, 2009. Collateral pledging requirements for public funds, loan demand, and deposit funding are the primary factors impacting changes in the level of security holdings. Investment securities comprised 49.9 percent, 46.9 percent, and 47.8 percent, respectively, of the earning assets as of September 30, 2010, December 31, 2009, and September 30, 2009. There were $3.6 billion of these securities pledged to secure U.S. Government deposits, other public deposits, securities sold under repurchase agreements, and certain trust deposits as required by law at September 30, 2010.

Investment securities had an average tax-equivalent yield of 2.77 percent for the first nine months of 2010 compared to 3.57 percent for the same period in 2009, or a decrease of 80 basis points. The average life of the securities portfolio was 26.7 months at September 30, 2010 compared to 22.9 months at December 31, 2009 and 24.2 months at September 30, 2009. The increase in average life from September 30, 2009 was related to a modest lengthening of the portfolio due to a lower percentage of short term investments held in the portfolio compared to the same period last year.

Deposits and Borrowed Funds

Deposits increased $67.3 million, or 0.8 percent, from December 31, 2009 to September 30, 2010 and increased $711.6 million from September 30, 2009. Noninterest-bearing deposits were flat and interest-bearing deposits increased $63.8 million from December 31, 2009. Noninterest-bearing deposits increased $184.1 million and interest-bearing deposits increased $527.5 million from September 30, 2009. The increase in deposits from September 30, 2009 came primarily from the public funds, mutual fund processing and treasury management businesses.

Deposits represent the Company’s primary funding source for its asset base. In addition to the core deposits garnered by the Company’s retail branch structure, the Company continues to focus on its cash management services, as well as its trust and mutual fund services in order to attract and retain additional core deposits. Management believes a strong core deposit composition is one of the Company’s key competencies given its competitive product mix.

Borrowed funds decreased $513.5 million from December 31, 2009. Borrowed funds are typically higher at year end due to repurchase agreements related to public funds. Borrowings, other than repurchase agreements, are a function of the source and use of funds and will fluctuate to cover short term gaps in funding.

Federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreement to repurchase totaled $1.4 billion at September 30, 2010, compared to $1.9 billion at December 31, 2009. Repurchase agreements are transactions involving the exchange of investment funds by the customer for securities by the Company under an agreement to repurchase the same or similar issues at an agreed-upon price and date.

Capital and Liquidity

The Company places a significant emphasis on the maintenance of a strong capital position, which promotes investor confidence, provides access to funding sources under favorable terms, and enhances the Company’s ability to capitalize on business growth and acquisition opportunities. Higher levels of liquidity, however, bear corresponding costs, measured in terms of lower yields on short-term, more liquid earning assets and higher expenses for extended liability maturities. The Company manages capital for each subsidiary based upon the subsidiary’s respective risks and growth opportunities as well as regulatory requirements.

Total shareholders’ equity was $1.1 billion at September 30, 2010, a $74.6 million increase compared to December 31, 2009. The Company’s Board of Directors authorized, at its April 27, 2010, April 21, 2009, and April 22, 2008 meetings, the repurchase of up to two million shares of the Company’s common stock during the twelve months following the meetings. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, the Company acquired 201,518 shares and 689,743 shares, respectively, of its common stock under these plans. The Company has not made any purchases other than through these plans.

On October 26, 2010, the Board of Directors declared a dividend of $0.195 per share. The dividend will be paid on December 30, 2010 to shareholders of record on December 10, 2010.

Risk-based capital guidelines established by regulatory agencies set minimum capital standards based on the level of risk associated with a financial institution’s assets. A financial institution’s total capital is required to equal at least 8 percent of risk-weighted assets and must be at least 10 percent of risk-weighted assets to be considered well-capitalized. At least half of the 8 percent minimum must consist of Tier 1 core capital, and the remainder may be Tier 2 supplementary capital. The risk-based capital guidelines indicate the specific risk weightings by type of asset. Certain off-balance-sheet items (such as standby letters of credit and binding loan commitments) are multiplied by credit conversion factors to translate them into balance sheet equivalents before assigning them specific risk weightings. Due to the Company’s high level of core capital and substantial portion of earning assets invested in government securities, the Tier 1 capital ratio of 12.61 percent and total capital ratio of 13.78 percent substantially exceed the regulatory minimums.

For further discussion of capital and liquidity, see “Liquidity Risk” under “Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in this report.

Off-balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company’s main off-balance sheet arrangements are loan commitments, commercial and standby letters of credit, futures contracts and forward exchange contracts, which have maturity dates rather than payment due dates. Please see Note 7, “Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for detailed information on these arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations discusses the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these condensed consolidated

Table of Contents

financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to customers and suppliers, allowance for loan losses, bad debts, investments, financing operations, long-lived assets, contingencies and litigation. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which have formed the basis for making such judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from the recorded estimates under different assumptions or conditions. A summary of critical accounting policies is listed in the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” section of the Company’s Annual Report Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Risk Management

Market risk is a broad term for the risk of economic loss due to adverse changes in the fair value of financial instruments. These changes may be the result of various factors, including interest rates, foreign exchange prices, commodity prices or equity prices. Financial instruments that are subject to market risk can be classified either as held for trading or held for purposes other than trading.

The Company is subject to market risk primarily through the effect of changes in interest rates of its assets held for purposes other than trading. The following discussion of interest rate risk, however, combines instruments held for trading and instruments held for purposes other than trading because the instruments held for trading represent such a small portion of the Company’s portfolio that the interest rate risk associated with them is immaterial.

Interest Rate Risk

In the banking industry, a major risk exposure is changing interest rates. To minimize the effect of interest rate changes to net interest income and exposure levels to economic losses, the Company manages its exposure to changes in interest rates through asset and liability management within guidelines established by its Funds Management Committee (“FMC”) and approved by the Company’s Board of Directors. The FMC has the responsibility for approving and ensuring compliance with asset/liability management policies, including interest rate exposure. The Company’s primary method for measuring and analyzing consolidated interest rate risk is the Net Interest Income Simulation Analysis. The Company also uses a Net Portfolio Value model to measure market value risk under various rate change scenarios and a gap analysis to measure maturity and repricing relationships between interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities at specific points in time. On a limited basis, the Company uses hedges or swaps to manage interest rate risk by using futures contracts on trading securities.

Overall, the Company manages interest rate risk by positioning the balance sheet to maximize net interest income while maintaining an acceptable level of interest rate and credit risk, remaining mindful of the relationship among profitability, liquidity, interest rate risk and credit risk.

Net Interest Income Modeling

The Company’s primary interest rate risk tool, the Net Interest Income Simulation Analysis, measures interest rate risk and the effect of interest rate changes on net interest income and net interest margin. This analysis incorporates substantially all of the Company’s assets and liabilities together with forecasted changes in the balance sheet and assumptions that reflect the current interest rate environment. Through these simulations, management estimates the impact on net interest income of a 300 basis point upward gradual change of market interest rates over a one year period. Assumptions are made to project rates for new loans and deposits based on historical analysis, management outlook, and repricing strategies. Asset prepayments and other market risks are developed from industry estimates of prepayment speeds and other market changes. Since the results of these simulations can be significantly influenced by assumptions utilized, management evaluates the sensitivity of the simulation results to changes in assumptions.

Table 9 shows the net interest income increase or decrease over the next twelve months as of September 30, 2010 and 2009 based on hypothetical changes in interest rates.

The Company is sensitive at September 30, 2010, to increases in rates. Increases in interest rates are projected to cause increases in net interest income. A large portion of the Company’s assets and liabilities have reached a floor. Due to the already low interest rate environment, the Company did not include a 100 basis point falling scenario. For projected increases in rates, net interest income is projected to increase due to the Company being positioned to adjust yields on assets with changes in market rates more than the cost of paying liabilities is projected to increase. Nevertheless, the Company is positioned in the current low rate environment to be relatively neutral to further interest rate changes over the next twelve months.

Repricing Mismatch Analysis

The Company also evaluates its interest rate sensitivity position in an attempt to maintain a balance between the amount of interest-bearing assets and interest-bearing liabilities that are expected to mature or reprice at any point in time. While a traditional repricing mismatch analysis (“gap analysis”) provides a snapshot of interest rate risk, it does not take into consideration that assets and liabilities with similar repricing characteristics may not in fact reprice at the same time or the same degree. Also, it does not necessarily predict the impact of changes in general levels of interest rates on net interest income.

Trading Account

UMB Bank, n.a. (the “Bank”) carries taxable government securities in a trading account that is maintained according to a board-approved policy and relevant procedures. The policy limits the amount and type of securities that the bank can carry in the trading account and also requires that the bank comply with any limits under applicable law and regulations. The policy also mandates the use of a value at risk methodology to manage price volatility risks within financial parameters. The risk associated with carrying trading securities is offset by the sale of exchange traded futures contracts, with both the trading account and futures contracts marked to market daily. This account had a balance of $40.5 million as of September 30, 2010 compared to $38.2 million as of December 31, 2009.

Documentation of the methodology used in determining value at risk is reviewed by the Board for approval in compliance with OCC Banking Circular 277, Risk Management of Financial Derivatives, and other banking laws and regulations. The aggregate value at risk is reviewed quarterly. The aggregate value at risk in the trading account was insignificant as of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009.

Other Market Risk

The Company does not have material commodity price risks or derivative risks. The Company does have minimal foreign currency risk as a result of foreign exchange contracts. See Note 8 “Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees” in the notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Credit Risk Management

Credit risk represents the risk that a customer may not perform in accordance with contractual terms. Credit risk is inherent in the financial services business and results from extending credit to customers. The Company utilizes a centralized credit administration function, which provides information on affiliate bank risk levels, delinquencies, an internal ranking system and overall credit exposure. In addition, the Company centrally reviews loan requests to ensure the consistent application of the loan policy and standards. The Company has an internal loan review staff that operates independently of the affiliate banks. This review team performs periodic examinations of each bank’s loans for credit quality, documentation and loan administration. The respective regulatory authority of each affiliate bank also reviews loan portfolios.

A primary indicator of credit quality and risk management is the level of nonperforming loans. Nonperforming loans include both nonaccrual loans and restructured loans. The Company’s nonperforming loans increased $2.6 million to $25.0 million at September 30, 2010, compared to September 30, 2009 and increased $1.8 million, compared to December 31, 2009.

The Company had $5.7 million of other real estate owned as of September 30, 2010 compared to $4.7 million as of September 30, 2009 and $5.2 million as of December 31, 2009. Loans past due more than 90 days totaled $7.5 million as of September 30, 2010, compared to $5.6 million at September 30, 2009 and $8.3 million as of December 31, 2009.

A loan is generally placed on nonaccrual status when payments are past due 90 days or more and/or when management has considerable doubt about the borrower’s ability to repay on the terms originally contracted. The accrual of interest is discontinued and recorded thereafter only when actually received in cash.

Certain loans are restructured to provide a reduction or deferral of interest or principal due to deterioration in the financial condition of the respective borrowers. The Company had $2.0 million of restructured loans at September 30, 2010, $0 at September 30, 2009 and $2.0 million at December 31, 2009.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity represents the Company’s ability to meet financial commitments through the maturity and sale of existing assets or availability of additional funds. The most important factor in the preservation of liquidity is maintaining public confidence that facilitates the retention and growth of a large, stable supply of core deposits and wholesale funds. Ultimately, public confidence is generated through profitable operations, sound credit quality and a strong capital position. The primary source of liquidity for the Company is regularly scheduled payments and maturity of assets, which include $5.1 billion of high-quality securities available for sale. Investment securities with a market value of $3.6 billion at September 30, 2010 were pledged to secure U.S. Government deposits, other public deposits, securities sold under repurchase agreements, and certain trust deposits as required by law. The liquidity of the Company and its affiliate banks is also enhanced by its activity in the federal funds market and by its core deposits. Neither the Company nor its subsidiaries are active in the debt market. The traditional funding source for the Company’s subsidiary banks has been core deposits. Based upon regular contact with investment banking firms, management believes it can raise debt or equity capital on favorable terms, should the need arise.

The Company also has other commercial commitments that may impact liquidity. These commitments include unused commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit and financial guarantees, and commercial letters of credit. The total amount of these commercial commitments at September 30, 2010 was $3.5 billion. Since many of these commitments expire without being drawn upon, the total amount of these commercial commitments does not necessarily represent the future cash requirements of the Company.

The Company’s cash requirements consist primarily of dividends to shareholders, debt service, operating costs, and treasury stock purchases. Management fees and dividends received from subsidiary banks traditionally have been sufficient to satisfy these requirements and are expected to be sufficient in the future. The Company’s subsidiary banks are subject to various rules regarding payment of dividends to the Company. For the most part, all banks can pay dividends at least equal to their current year’s earnings without seeking prior regulatory approval. From time to time, approvals have been requested to allow a subsidiary bank to pay a dividend in excess of its current earnings.

Operational Risk

Operational risk generally refers to the risk of loss resulting from the Company’s operations, including those operations performed for the Company by third parties. This would include but is not limited to the risk of fraud by employees or persons outside the Company, the execution of unauthorized transactions by employees or others, errors relating to transaction processing, breaches of the internal control system and compliance requirements, and unplanned interruptions in service. This risk of loss also includes the potential legal or regulatory actions that could arise as a result of an operational deficiency, or as a result of noncompliance with applicable regulatory standards. Included in the legal and regulatory issues with which the Company must comply are a number of imposed rules resulting from the enactment of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

The Company operates in many markets and places reliance on the ability of its employees and systems to properly process a high number of transactions. In the event of a breakdown in the internal control systems, improper operation of systems or improper employee actions, the Company could suffer financial loss, face regulatory action and suffer damage to its reputation. In order to address this risk, management maintains a system of internal controls with the objective of providing proper transaction authorization and execution, safeguarding of assets from misuse or theft, and ensuring the reliability of financial and other data.

The Company maintains systems of controls that provide management with timely and accurate information about the Company’s operations. These systems have been designed to manage operational risk at appropriate levels given the Company’s financial strength, the environment in which it operates, and considering factors such as competition and regulation. The Company has also established procedures that are designed to ensure that policies relating to conduct, ethics and business practices are followed on a uniform basis. In certain cases, the Company has experienced losses from operational risk. Such losses have included the effects of operational errors that the Company has discovered and included as expense in the statement of income. While there can be no assurance that the Company will not suffer such losses in the future, management continually monitors and works to improve its internal controls, systems and corporate-wide processes and procedures.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officers to make certain certifications with respect to this report and to the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting. The Company has a Code of Ethics that expresses the values that drive employee behavior and maintains the Company’s commitment to the highest standards of ethics.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s “Disclosure Controls and Procedures” (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by the report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective for ensuring that information the Company is required to report in its periodic SEC filings is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time period required and that information required to be disclosed by the Company is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the period to which this report relates that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In the normal course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries are named defendants in various lawsuits and counter-claims. In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, none of these lawsuits are expected to have a materially adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations, or cash flows of the Company.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

There were no material changes to the risk factors as previously disclosed in response to Item 1A to Part 1 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, except as set forth below.

The enactment of the Dodd-Frank Act could have an adverse impact on our financial results.

In July 2010, Congress enacted and the President signed broad financial regulatory reform legislation that, among other things, will impose comprehensive regulation on financial institutions. The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) will subject financial institutions to substantial supervision and regulation, including capital standards, margin requirements, business conduct standards, recordkeeping and reporting requirements. While the substance of the Dodd-Frank Act is known, it is not possible at this time to predict the final form and substance of the regulations that will be adopted to carry out the Act. Any such regulations that subject us or our counter-parties to additional capital or margin requirements relating to, or to additional restrictions on business practices could have an adverse effect on our financial results. This financial impact is not currently quantifiable.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

The table below sets forth the information with respect to purchases made by or on behalf of the Company or any “affiliated purchaser” (as defined in Rule 10b-18(a)(3) under the Exchange Act) of our common stock during the three months ended September 30, 2010.

On April 27, 2010, the Company announced a plan to repurchase up to two million shares of common stock. This plan will terminate on April 26, 2011. All open market share purchases under the share repurchase plan are intended to be within the scope of Rule 10b-18 promulgated under the Exchange Act. Rule 10b-18 provides a safe harbor for purchases in a given day if the Company satisfies the manner, timing and volume conditions of the rule when purchasing its own common shares. The Company has not made any repurchases other than through this plan.
