Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure

 

On September 19, 2005, the Registrant provided an update regarding the influence of Hurricane Katrina on the operations of the Company and expansion initiatives.

 

In relation to its expansion plans, the Registrant also disclosed that branch expansion costs are estimated at $9.7 million, exclusive of the properties that have yet to be purchased. The $9.7 million is comprised of $4.9 million for acquisition of eight land sites, $1.4 million for acquisition of modular units and $3.4 million for site development and other related costs.

 

On a monthly expense basis, the branch expansion is expected to cost approximately $300,000 in aggregate, or $25,000 per branch, exclusive of any offset from income generated from deposit gathering and loan production activity at these sites.

 

Using anticipated direct expenses, the existing loan mix, current loan spreads, current deposit pricing and a 25% loan to deposit ratio as principal underlying assumptions, and assuming no other revenues, each new branch would be required to originate approximately $8 million in deposits and $2 million in loans to attain breakeven status.

 

A copy of the related press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.

 

Item 8.01 Other Events

 

On September 19, 2005, the Registrant announced the declaration of a quarterly cash dividend of $0.26 per share, payable on October 19, 2005 to shareholders of record as of September 30, 2005.

 

A copy of the related press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.
