Loan Portfolio and Composition

During the fourth quarter, the loan portfolio increased by $176.4 million to $5.0 billion, a 15% annualized growth rate.��New loans of $457.3 million were offset by resolutions totaling $54.1 million, including transfers to OREO of $4.4 million, and principal repayments of $226.8 million.

For the full year, new loans were $1.6 billion as compared to $1.3 billion, a 27% increase from the prior year, driving 10% growth in the loan portfolio in 2014.

The relative composition of the Companys loan portfolio at the end of the fourth and third quarters of 2014 and fourth quarter of 2013 was as follows:

Deposits, Composition and Yields

During the fourth quarter, total deposits increased by $79.6 million to $5.3 billion. The sequential increase was mainly as a result of the Company's continued focus in growing lower cost checking accounts, which were up $121.7 million, or 5%, partially offset by some contraction in money market balances. The cost of deposits remained flat at 0.34% sequentially and year over year.��The cost of core deposits remained flat at 0.15% sequentially and year over year. Core deposits include all checking, savings and money market accounts and now represent 73% of total deposits.

The cost of deposits for the full year of 2014 was 0.34%, a decline of six basis points from 2013. The improvement was mainly due to planned shrinkage in high cost time deposits. The cost of core deposits remained flat at 0.15% from 2013.

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin

Net interest income remained consistent at $61.4 million from the third quarter of 2014 and declined $4.4 million year over year from $65.7 million. The net interest margin for the fourth quarter of 2014 was 4.05%, a decline of nine basis points sequentially and 47 basis points year over year.� The sequential and year over year net interest margin decline was mainly due to the lower yield on new loans as compared to the yields of the Company's legacy portfolio, partially offset by an increase in investment securities yields.

Net interest income declined $17.5 million for the full year of 2014 from $263.6 million in 2013. The net interest margin for the full year of 2014 was 4.21%, a decline of 19 basis points from 2013. The decline was mainly due to the lower yield on new loans as compared to the yields of the Company's legacy portfolio, partially offset by an increase in investment securities yields and planned shrinkage in high cost time deposits.

Non-Interest Income

Non-interest income increased $0.6 million sequentially to $10.6 million and declined $2.7 million year over year from $13.3 million.��The year over year decline was mainly driven by lower credit loss expectations, which resulted in an increase of $1.5 million in FDIC indemnification asset amortization, and the absence of a $1.0 million legal settlement recorded in the prior year.

Non-interest income declined $9.2 million for the full year of 2014 from $53.0 million in 2013. The decline was mainly driven by lower credit loss expectations, which resulted in an increase of $5.9 million in FDIC indemnification asset amortization, and the absence of $1.9 million in legal settlements and insurance recoveries recorded in the prior year.

Provision for Loan Losses and Credit Quality

The net reversal of provision for loan losses of $0.6 million recorded for the fourth quarter of 2014 included a $0.8 million provision for new and acquired non-impaired loans and $1.4 million in reversals of impairments due to improvements in cash flow estimates for certain acquired impaired loan pools.��The improvement in cash flow estimates mainly resulted from higher than anticipated payoffs. Net charge-offs for the fourth quarter of 2014 were $1.5 million.

At December�31, 2014, the allowance for loan losses was $50.2 million, of which $28.9 million related to acquired impaired loans and $21.3 million related to new and acquired non-impaired loans. The allowance for loan losses represents 1% of the Company's total $5.0 billion loan portfolio.

During the fourth quarter, non-performing loans declined sequentially by $41.6 million, or 24%, to $130.6 million.��Nonaccrual loans declined sequentially to $9.5 million, or to 0.26% of total non-purchased credit impaired loans from 0.32%. Acquired impaired loans greater than 90 days past due and still accruing declined sequentially by $40.5 million, or 25%, to $121.1 million.

New and acquired non-impaired loans now represent 73% of the Company's total loan portfolio as compared to 59% at December 31, 2013.

Non-Interest Expense

Non-interest expense declined $0.5 million from $51.4 million for the third quarter of 2014 and declined $5.3 million from $56.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2013.��The sequential decline was mainly due to lower legacy credit expenses reflecting the continued resolution of special assets, partially offset by increased salaries and employee benefits and professional fees. The year over year decline was mainly due to lower legacy credit expenses as discussed above, a decline in stock based compensation expense, mainly associated with original founder awards, and the reduction in occupancy costs as a result of the Company's continued focus on consolidating facilities.

Non-interest expense declined $27.4 million for the full year of 2014 from $236.2 million for 2013. The decline was mainly due to lower legacy credit expenses reflecting the continued resolution of special assets, the decline in professional fees and stock-based compensation expense, mainly associated with original founder awards, and a decline in other miscellaneous expenses. Partially offsetting the decline was an increase in salaries and employee benefits as a result of rising healthcare costs.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense was $7.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2014, an effective income tax rate of 36%, as compared to income tax expense of $8.1 million for the third quarter of 2014, an effective income tax rate of 38%. Income tax expense was $7.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2013, an effective income tax rate of 37%. The sequential and year over year decline in effective rate is mainly due to higher tax-exempt interest income during the fourth quarter of 2014.

Income tax expense for the full year of 2014 was $30.7 million, an effective income tax rate of 38%, as compared to income tax expense of $27.4 million for 2013, an effective income tax rate of 41%. The higher prior year effective rate is mainly due to the prior year impact of changes in certain statutory rates that were enacted into law during the third quarter of 2013.

Financial Position

Total assets increased by $141.1 million to $6.8 billion as of December�31, 2014, from $6.7 billion as of September 30, 2014.�During the quarter, the Companys loan portfolio increased by $176.4 million to $5.0 billion, a 15% annualized growth rate.� Deposits increased by $79.6 million to $5.3 billion, and FHLB borrowings increased by $70.0 million.��During the quarter, the Company repurchased 737,611 shares of common stock at an average price of $24.19 per share.� Tangible book value per share was $19.28 as of December�31, 2014, an increase of $0.28 and $0.73 over September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

The Companys national bank subsidiary, Capital Bank N.A., has preliminary Tier 1, Tier 1 Risk-Based and Total Risk-Based capital ratios of 13.5%, 17.1% and 18.1%, respectively, as of December�31, 2014, under currently applicable regulations.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Core net income, core efficiency ratio, core return-on-assets (core ROA), tangible book value and tangible book value per share are each non-GAAP measures used in this report.��A reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures  net income in the case of core net income and core ROA, total non-interest income and total non-interest expense in the case of core efficiency ratio, and total shareholders equity in the case of tangible book value and tangible book value per share  appears in tabular form at the end of this release.��The Company believes core net income, the core efficiency ratio and core ROA are useful for both investors and management to understand the effects of certain non-interest items and provide an alternative view of the Companys performance over time and in comparison to the Companys competitors.��These measures should not be viewed as a substitute for net income.��The Company believes that tangible book value and tangible book value per share are useful for both investors and management as these are measures commonly used by financial institutions, regulators and investors to measure the capital adequacy of financial institutions.��The Company believes these measures facilitate comparison of the quality and composition of the Companys capital over time and in comparison to its competitors.��These measures should not be viewed as a substitute for total shareholders equity.

These non-GAAP measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied and are not audited.��They should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analyzes of results reported under GAAP.��These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Safe Harbor Statement 2 1/29/2015 Forward-Looking Statements Information in this presentation contains forward-looking statements. Any statements about our expectations, beliefs, plans, predictions, forecasts, objectives, assumptions or future events or performance are not historical facts and may be forward- looking. These statements are often, but not always, made through the use of words or phrases such as anticipate, believes, can, could, may, predicts, potential, should, will, estimate, plans, projects, continuing, ongoing, expects, intends and similar words or phrases. Accordingly, these statements are only predictions and involve estimates, known and unknown risks, assumptions and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in them. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements as a result of several factors more fully described under the caption Risk Factors in the annual report on Form 10-K and other periodic reports filed by us with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Any or all of our forward-looking statements in this presentation may turn out to be inaccurate. The inclusion of this forward-looking information should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that the future plans, estimates or expectations contemplated by us will be achieved. We have based these forward- looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy and financial needs. There are important factors that could cause our actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements to differ materially from the results, level of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward looking statements including, but not limited to: (1) changes in general economic and financial market conditions; (2) changes in the regulatory environment; (3) economic conditions generally and in the financial services industry; (4) changes in the economy affecting real estate values; (5) our ability to achieve loan and deposit growth; (6) the completion of future acquisitions or business combinations and our ability to integrate any acquired businesses into our business model; (7) projected population and income growth in our targeted market areas; (8) competitive pressures in our markets and industry; (9) our ability to attract and retain key personnel; (10) changes in accounting policies or judgments; and (11) volatility and direction of market interest rates and a weakening of the economy which could materially impact credit quality trends and the ability to generate loans. All forward-looking statements are necessarily only estimates of future results and actual results may differ materially from expectations. You are, therefore, cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements which should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements that are included elsewhere in this presentation. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made and we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
