SECTION 2 – FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

Item 2.02 – Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

 

On April 19, 2006, Mid-State Bancshares reported diluted earnings of $0.38 per share for the three months ended March 31, 2006 on net income of $8.8 million. Results in the quarter were impacted by the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment,” which changes the method of accounting for costs of stock options and other equity compensation. The adoption of the new statement resulted in increased expense which, after-tax, reduced earnings by approximately $397,000, or $0.02 per share. Net income in the comparable 2005 period prior to adoption of the new statement was $9.1 million, or $0.39 per share.

 

Please refer to the Press Release dated April 19, 2006, attached hereto and made a part hereof.
