FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Capital Bank Corporation Announces Financial Results for the Second Quarter of 2011

RALEIGH, N.C., August 15, 2011 – Capital Bank Corporation (Nasdaq: CBKN), a majority-owned subsidiary of North American Financial Holdings, Inc. (“NAFH”), today reported unaudited financial results for the second quarter of 2011. Operating and financial highlights include the following:

Capital Bank, formerly the wholly-owned banking subsidiary of Capital Bank Corporation, was merged with and into NAFH National Bank on June 30, 2011;
NAFH National Bank changed its name to and was rebranded as Capital Bank, NA immediately following the merger;
The Company’s technology platform was converted to NAFH’s enterprise-wide technology platform;
Core deposits (total deposits minus time deposits) grew by $27.9 million, or 5.7%, in the second quarter of 2011 immediately prior to the Capital Bank merger; and
Net income totaled $1.3 million, or $0.01 per share, in the second quarter of 2011 and totaled $693 thousand, or $0.01 per share, in the period from January 29 to June 30, 2011.

“Following NAFH’s investment in the first quarter and its bank subsidiary merger in the second quarter, Capital Bank Corporation now owns 38% of the newly-merged and rebranded Capital Bank, NA, which has 82 branches and $4.5 billion in assets in North Carolina, South Carolina and Florida. I am pleased with the bank’s progress in new loan originations and core deposit growth, which should set the stage for continued improvements in profitability,” stated Gene Taylor, chairman and CEO of Capital Bank Corporation and NAFH.
“Capital Bank, NA is an independent, southeastern regional bank with a unique brand identity, a single technology platform, a set of value-added products, and very strong capital levels. Our team is committed to providing first-class services to all our customers,” commented Chris Marshall, CFO of Capital Bank Corporation and NAFH.

NAFH Investment

On January 28, 2011, Capital Bank Corporation (the “Company”) completed the issuance and sale of 71 million shares of its common stock to NAFH for approximately $181.1 million in cash (“NAFH Investment”). Also in connection with the NAFH Investment, the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock and warrant to purchase shares of common stock issued to the U.S. Treasury through the TARP were repurchased.

Financial results for the first six months of 2011 were significantly impacted by the controlling investment in the Company by NAFH. The Company was required to apply push-down accounting. Accordingly, the Company’s assets and liabilities were adjusted to estimated fair value at the NAFH Investment date, resulting in elimination of the allowance for loan losses. The Company is still in the process of completing its fair value analysis of assets and liabilities, and final fair value adjustments may differ significantly from the preliminary estimates recorded to date. Balances and activity in the Company’s consolidated financial statements prior to the NAFH Investment have been labeled with “Predecessor Company” while balances and activity subsequent to the NAFH Investment have been labeled with “Successor Company.”

Bank Merger

On June 30, 2011, Capital Bank (“Old Capital Bank”), which was formerly a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, merged (the “Bank Merger”) with and into NAFH National Bank (“NAFH Bank”), a national banking association and subsidiary of TIB Financial Corp (“TIB Financial”) and NAFH, with NAFH Bank as the surviving entity.  In connection with the Bank Merger, NAFH Bank changed its name to Capital Bank, National Association (“Capital Bank, NA”). NAFH is the owner of approximately 83% of the Company’s common stock and approximately 94% of TIB Financial’s common stock. 
Capital Bank, NA (formerly NAFH Bank) was formed on July 16, 2010 in connection with the purchase and assumption of assets and deposits of three banks – Metro Bank of Dade County (Miami, Florida), Turnberry Bank (Aventura, Florida) and First National Bank of the South (Spartanburg, South Carolina) – from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) and is a party to loss sharing agreements with the FDIC covering the large majority of the loans it acquired from the FDIC. On April 29, 2011, Capital Bank, NA merged with TIB Bank, then a wholly owned subsidiary of TIB Financial. As of June 30, 2011, Capital Bank, NA had total assets of $4.5 billion, total deposits of $3.5 billion and shareholders’ equity of $610.3 million. As of June 30, 2011, following the Merger, Capital Bank, NA operated 82 branches in North Carolina, South Carolina and Florida. 
The Bank Merger occurred pursuant to the terms of an Agreement of Merger entered into by and between Old Capital Bank and Capital Bank, NA dated as of June 30, 2011. In the Bank Merger, each share of Old Capital Bank common stock was converted into the right to receive shares of Capital Bank, NA common stock based on each entity’s relative tangible book value on March 31, 2011. As a result of the Bank Merger, the Company now owns approximately 38% of Capital Bank, NA, with NAFH having a direct ownership of 29% and TIB Financial owning the remaining 33%. 

Due to its ownership level and significant influence, the Company’s investment in Capital Bank, NA is recorded as an equity-method investment in that entity. As of June 30, 2011, the Company’s investment in Capital Bank, NA totaled $231.3 million, which reflected the Company’s pro rata ownership of Capital Bank, NA’s total shareholders’ equity as a result of the Bank Merger in addition to a $6.1 million capital contribution to Capital Bank, NA immediately following the Bank Merger. The Company also had an advance to Capital Bank, NA totaling $3.4 million at the Merger date. In periods subsequent to the Merger, the Company will adjust this equity investment balance based on its equity in Capital Bank, NA’s net income and comprehensive income. While the Merger reduced the Company’s total shareholders’ equity by $4.8 million, its tangible book value was unaffected. In connection with the Bank Merger, assets and liabilities of Old Capital Bank were de-consolidated from the Company’s balance sheet resulting in a significant decrease in total assets and total liabilities of the Company in the second quarter of 2011.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 (successor) and the quarter ended June 30, 2010 (predecessor) totaled $13.9 million and $12.7 million, respectively. Net interest margin increased from 3.25% in the second quarter of 2010 (predecessor) to 3.74% in the second quarter of 2011 (successor) primarily due to a decline in funding costs as the average rate on total interest-bearing liabilities fell from 1.97% to 1.07% over that period. Net amortization of purchase accounting fair value adjustments on interest-bearing liabilities increased net interest income by $2.1 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2011 (successor) and lowered funding costs in the quarter by 0.63%. Average earning assets decreased from $1.62 billion in the quarter ended June 30, 2010 (predecessor) to $1.52 billion in the quarter ended June 30, 2011 (successor) primarily due to purchase accounting fair value adjustments, principal pay-downs and charge-offs on the loan portfolio.

Further, net interest income for the period of January 29 to June 30, 2011 (successor), the period of January 1 to January 28, 2011 (predecessor), and the six months ended June 30, 2010 (predecessor) totaled $23.9 million, $4.0 million and $25.3 million, respectively. Net interest margin increased from 3.23% in the first half of 2010 (predecessor) to 3.90% for the period of January 29 to June 30, 2011 (successor) primarily due to a decline in funding costs as the average rate on total interest-bearing liabilities fell from 2.03% to 1.06% over that period. Net amortization of purchase accounting fair value adjustments on interest-bearing liabilities increased net interest income by $3.5 million in the period from January 29 to June 30, 2011 (successor) and lowered funding costs in the period by 0.62 %. Average earning assets decreased from $1.63 billion in the six months ended June 30, 2010 (predecessor) to $1.54 billion in the period of January 1 to January 28, 2011 (predecessor) to $1.52 billion in the period of January 29 to June 30, 2011 (successor).

Provision for Loan Losses

Provision for loan losses for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 (successor) and the quarter ended June 30, 2010 (predecessor) totaled $1.5 million and $20.0 million, respectively. The loan loss provision in the successor period reflects $585 thousand of estimated losses inherent in loans originated subsequent to the NAFH Investment date, $561 thousand of impairment related to probable decreases in cash flows expected to be collected on certain of the Company’s purchased credit-impaired (“PCI”) loan pools, and $339 thousand of losses on acquired non-PCI loans.

In addition, provision for loan losses for the period of January 29 to June 30, 2011 (successor), the period of January 1 to January 28, 2011 (predecessor), and the six months ended June 30, 2010 (predecessor) totaled $1.7 million, $40 thousand and $31.8 million, respectively. The loan loss provision in the successor period reflects $752 thousand of estimated losses inherent in loans originated subsequent to the NAFH Investment date, $561 thousand of impairment related to probable decreases in cash flows expected to be collected on certain PCI loan pools, and $339 thousand of losses on acquired non-PCI loans.

Loans acquired in the NAFH Investment where there was evidence of credit deterioration since origination and where it was probable that the Company will not collect all contractually required principal and interest payments are accounted for as PCI loans. The Company identified approximately 93% of its acquisition-date loan portfolio as PCI. Subsequent to acquisition, estimates of cash flows expected to be collected are refreshed each reporting period based on updated assumptions regarding default rates, loss severities, and other factors that are reflective of current market conditions. If the Company has probable decreases in cash flows expected to be collected (other than due to decreases in interest rate indices), the Company charges the provision for credit losses, resulting in an increase to the allowance for loan losses. If the Company has probable and significant increases in cash flows expected to be collected, the Company will first reverse any previously established allowance for loan losses and then increase interest income as a prospective yield adjustment over the remaining life of the pool of loans.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 (successor) and the quarter ended June 30, 2010 (predecessor) totaled $2.1 million and $2.5 million, respectively. Noninterest income in the second quarter of 2010 (predecessor) benefited from $63 thousand of gains recorded on the sale of investment securities while no gains or losses were recognized in the second quarter of 2011 (successor). Mortgage fees were negatively impacted in the quarter ended June 30, 2011 (successor) by sluggish demand in the local housing market and by an uptick in mortgage rates early in 2011. Additionally, income from bank-owned life insurance (“BOLI”) in the second quarter of 2011 (successor) was lower than the second quarter of 2010 (predecessor) after the Company surrendered certain BOLI contracts on former employees and directors late in 2010.

Further, noninterest income for the period of January 29 to June 30, 2011 (successor), the period of January 1 to January 28, 2011 (predecessor), and the six months ended June 30, 2010 (predecessor) totaled $3.3 million, $832 thousand and $5.0 million, respectively. Noninterest income in the first half of 2010 (predecessor) benefited from $326 thousand of gains recorded on the sale of investment securities while no gains or losses were recognized in the period from January 29 to June 30, 2011 (successor). Additionally, income from bank-owned life insurance BOLI in the period was significantly lower than the six months ended June 30, 2010 (predecessor) after the Company surrendered certain BOLI contracts on former employees and directors late in 2010. Other noninterest income for the period of January 29 to June 30, 2011 (successor) was negatively impacted by a $50 thousand loss from a decline in the stock price of an equity security that the Company marks to market through noninterest income, while the Company recorded a gain of $71 thousand from appreciation in value of this security in the first quarter of 2010 (predecessor).

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 (successor) and the quarter ended June 30, 2010 (predecessor) totaled $12.8 million and $12.4 million, respectively. Expenses in the second quarter of 2011 (successor) were significantly impacted by a $374 thousand contract termination fee related to the conversion and integration of the Company’s operations onto a common technology platform utilized across the NAFH enterprise. This system conversion is intended to create operating efficiencies and better position the Company for future growth.

Additionally, salaries and benefits expense increased due primarily to lower deferred loan costs, which reduce expense. Occupancy expense was negatively impacted in the second quarter of 2011 (successor) from the relocation of two previously existing branch offices into larger facilities that were opened early in 2011. Advertising and public relations costs were elevated in the second quarter of 2010 (predecessor) compared to the second quarter of 2011 (successor) due in part from radio and television ads promoting the Company’s special financing programs which were discontinued in early 2011. Professional fees were elevated in the second quarter of 2010 (predecessor) primarily due to higher legal costs as the Company explored various capital raising options prior to being recapitalized by NAFH. Other real estate losses and miscellaneous loan costs were higher in the second quarter of 2011 (successor) because of higher loan workout, appraisal and foreclosure costs to resolve problem assets. Directors’ fees were reduced significantly in the second quarter of 2011 (successor) as the Company’s board of directors was reconstituted post-acquisition and the Capital Bank Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan for Outside Directors was terminated.

Further, noninterest expense for the period of January 29 to June 30, 2011 (successor), the period of January 1 to January 28, 2011 (predecessor), and the six months ended June 30, 2010 (predecessor) totaled $25.0 million, $4.2 million and $25.0 million, respectively. Expenses in the successor period were significantly impacted by $4.0 million of contract termination fees related to the conversion and integration of the Company’s operations onto a common technology platform utilized across the NAFH enterprise.

Additionally, salaries and benefits expense increased in the successor period from the accelerated vesting of stock options and restricted shares at closing of the NAFH Investment. Salaries expense also increased in the successor period and period of January 1 to January 28, 2011 (predecessor) from lower deferred loan costs, which reduce expense. Occupancy expense was impacted in the successor period and period of January 1 to January 28, 2011 (predecessor) from the relocation of two previously existing branch offices into larger facilities that were opened early in 2011. Advertising and public relations costs were elevated in the first six months of 2010 (predecessor) due in part from radio and television ads promoting the Company’s special financing programs which were discontinued in early 2011. Professional fees were elevated in the first six months of 2010 (predecessor) primarily due to higher legal costs as the Company explored various capital raising options prior to being recapitalized by NAFH. Other real estate losses and miscellaneous loan costs were lower in the successor period because of valuation adjustments to reduce the value of certain bank-owned properties at the NAFH Investment date. Directors’ fees were reduced significantly in the successor period as the Company’s board of directors was reconstituted post-acquisition and the Capital Bank Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan for Outside Directors was terminated.
