MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

        Management's discussion and analysis represents an explanation of significant changes in the financial position and results of operations of International Bancshares Corporation and subsidiaries (the "Company") on a consolidated basis for the three-year period ended December 31, 2002. The Company is a financial holding company with four bank subsidiaries operating in over 95 main banking and branch facilities in South and Southeast Texas, and ten non-bank subsidiaries. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002, and the Selected Financial Data and Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere herein.

Results of Operations

    Overview

        Net income for 2002 was $100,631,000, or $3.15 per share—basic ($3.08 per share—diluted), compared with $83,342,000, or $2.52 per share—basic ($2.47 per share—diluted), in 2002 and $75,174,000, or $2.25 per share—basic ($2.22 per share—diluted), in 2001.

        During the year-ended December 31, 1999, IBC Aircraft Services, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company's lead bank, International Bank of Commerce, Laredo, Texas, acquired for approximately $15 million, a 20% ownership interest in the Aircraft Finance Trust ("AFT"), a special purpose business trust formed to acquire, finance, refinance, own, lease, sublease, sell and maintain aircraft. During 1999, AFT issued approximately $1.209 billion in aggregate principal amount of notes in five debt classes. AFT used the proceeds from the debt offering to initially purchase 36 leased aircraft located in at least thirteen different countries from General Electric Capital Corporation and certain of its affiliates. The expected final payment date of the AFT notes is August 15, 2016 and the final maturity date of the AFT notes is May 15, 2024. GE Capital Aviation Services Limited acts as servicer of the AFT aircraft portfolio.

        The Company accounts for its investment in AFT under the equity method of accounting. AFT utilizes derivative instruments to manage the interest rate on bonds that it has issued. The derivatives qualify as cash flow hedges and are reported at fair value. The Company records its proportionate share of the fair value of the derivatives as an increase or decrease in the investment in AFT and accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax. The Company's proportionate share of earnings or losses of AFT were losses of $6,799,000 and $1,766,000 for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and earnings of $1,069,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000. Because of the losses from operations that AFT has reported as a result of the events of September 11 and the impact on the airline industry including continued declines in air travel and continued reduced demand for commercial aircraft, the Company evaluated its investment, which resulted in the Company recording an impairment charge of $6,081,000 in 2002. At December 31, 2002 and 2001, the Company's investment in AFT, excluding its proportionate share of the fair value of the AFT derivatives, was $948,000 and $13,828,000, respectively. The Company's investment including the proportionate share of the fair value of the AFT derivatives at December 31, 2002 and 2001, was $0 and $6,281,000, respectively.

        On March 13, 2002, Albertson's, Inc. announced its intention to exit substantially all of the Company's markets. The Company began its relationship with Albertson's in 1995. 39 Albertson's supermarkets and the related in-store branches of the Company located in Houston, San Antonio, Brownsville, Corpus Christi, Laredo, Endinburg, San Juan, Pharr, Mission, Weslaco and Harlingen have been closed. On June 7, 2002, H-E-B agreed to purchase certain former Albertson's locations in San Antonio and the Rio Grande Valley. The Company subsequently agreed with H-E-B to open in 5 of the Company's previous in-store locations and the Company also agreed to open an in-store branch in another former Albertson's store that was not occupied by the Company. On May 10, 2002, Kroger Co. agreed to purchase certain former Albertson's locations in Houston. The Company subsequently agreed with Kroger to open in 3 of the Company's previous in-store locations. During the third quarter 2002, the Company concluded that the remaining in-store locations would not be re-opened and wrote off $1,159,000 of its investment in the related in-store branches. The Company will continue to maintain 1 Albertson's in-store branch in the New Braunfels market that was not closed by Albertson's. As a result of the new branch arrangements in Houston and San Antonio and the Company's extensive branch network, the Company does not expect any further significant loss of its deposit base or a significant impact from the branch closings on its consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

        On August 1, 2002, the Company completed its sale of three non-strategic bank branches in Rockdale, Taylor and Giddings, Texas to Citizens National Bank located in Cameron, Texas. The branches were previously acquired by the Company as part of its acquisition of National Bancshares Corporation in the

3



fourth quarter of 2001 and represented approximately $36.3 million in loans and $93.1 million in deposits. As a result of the sale, the Company recorded a gain of $3.1 million.

        Total assets at December 31, 2002 grew 1.8% to $6,495,635,000 from $6,381,401,000 at December 31, 2001, and grew 8.9% in 2001 from $5,860,714,000 at December 31, 2000. Net loans increased 4.5% to $2,725,349,000 at December 31, 2002 from $2,608,467,000 at December 31, 2001 and grew 17.9% in 2001 from $2,212,467,000 at December 31, 2000. Deposits at December 31, 2002 were $4,239,899,000, a decrease of 2.1% from $4,332,834,000 at December 31, 2001, which represented an increase of 15.7% over $3,744,598,000 at December 31, 2000. The decrease in deposits and slight increase in assets from 2002 to 2001 is primarily attributed to the sale of the bank branches. The aggregate amount of certificates of indebtedness with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas ("FHLB") increased to $1,050,857,000 at December 31, 2002 from the $709,296,000 at December 31, 2001. Long term debt of $135,000,000 in the form of trust preferred securities was issued in 2002 and 2001. Trust preferred securities, certificates of indebtedness and the deposits are used to fund the earning asset base of the Company.

    Net Interest Income

        Net interest income in 2002 increased by $47,966,000, or 25.3%, over that in 2001, while net interest income in 2001 increased by $25,971,000, or 15.9%, over that in 2000. The net yield on average interest earning assets increased by 0.61% from 3.53% in 2001 to 4.14% in 2002. The net yield on average interest earning assets increased by 0.3% in 2001 to 3.53% from 3.23% in 2000. Average interest earning assets increased 6.8% from $5,376,790,000 in 2001, to $5,741,369,000 in 2002 and increased 4.5% from $5,147,489,000 in 2000 to $5,376,790,000 in 2001, which contributed to the growth in net interest income for 2002 and 2001, respectively. Due to decreasing market rates in 2002 and 2001, the Company consequently lowered interest rates on loans and deposits, which in turn affected the yield on interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities. The yield on average interest earning assets decreased 1.1% from 7.26% in 2001 to 6.16% in 2002, and the rates paid on average interest bearing liabilities decreased 1.86% from 4.13% in 2001 to 2.27% in 2002. The yield on average interest earning assets decreased .93% from 8.19% in 2000 to 7.26% in 2001 and the rates paid on average interest bearing liabilities decreased 1.2% from 5.33% in 2000 to 4.13% in 2001.

        Net interest income is the spread between income on interest earning assets, such as loans and securities, and the interest expense on liabilities used to fund those assets, such as deposits, repurchase agreements and funds borrowed. Net interest income is affected by both changes in the level of interest rates and changes in the amount and composition of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities.

        As part of its strategy to manage interest rate risk, the Company strives to manage both assets and liabilities so that interest sensitivities match. One method of calculating interest rate sensitivity is through gap analysis. A gap is the difference between the amount of interest rate sensitive assets and interest rate sensitive liabilities that re-price or mature in a given time period. Positive gaps occur when interest rate sensitive assets exceed interest rate sensitive liabilities, and negative gaps occur when interest rate sensitive liabilities exceed interest rate sensitive assets. A positive gap position in a period of rising interest rates should have a positive effect on net interest income as assets will re-price faster than liabilities. Conversely, net interest income should contract somewhat in a period of falling interest rates. Management can quickly change the Company's interest rate position at any given point in time as market conditions dictate. Additionally, interest rate changes do not affect all categories of assets and liabilities equally or at the same time. Analytical techniques employed by the Company to supplement gap analysis include simulation analysis to quantify interest rate risk exposure. The gap analysis prepared by management is reviewed by the Investment Committee of the Company twice a year. Management currently believes that the Company is properly positioned for interest rate changes; however if management determines at any time that the Company is not properly positioned, it will strive to adjust the interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities in order to manage the effect of interest rate changes.

    Non-Interest Income

        Non-interest income increased 7.6% in 2002 to $85,645,000 from $79,588,000 in 2001, and increased 24.8% in 2001 from $63,796,000 in 2000. Service charges and fees on deposit accounts and other banking services provided increased $3,007,000 from 2001 to 2002 as a result of the acquisition of NBC Bank and new products offerred by the Company. Investment securities gains of $2,303,000 were recorded in 2002 compared to losses of $1,010,000 for 2001. These gains in 2002 and losses in 2001 occurred due to a bond program to reposition a portion of the Company's bond portfolio and take advantage of higher bond yields. Non-interest income includes income on other investments. Income on other investments decreased by 124.4% in 2002 to $(2,598,000) from $10,536,000 in 2001, which represented a 23.7% decrease from $13,941,000 in 2000. The decrease in 2002 can be attributed to losses taken by the Company on its investment in AFT. Other non-interest income increased $3,383,000 primarily from the gain recorded on the sale of the branches.

    Non-Interest Expense

        Expense control is an essential element in the Company's profitability. This is achieved through maintaining optimum staffing levels, an effective budgeting process, and internal consolidation of bank functions. Non-interest expense includes such items as wages and employee benefits, net occupancy expenses, equipment expenses and other operating expenses such as Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") insurance. Non-interest expense increased 14.3% in 2002 to $154,843,000 from $135,441,000 in 2001, which increased 21.0% from $111,957,000 in 2000. The increases in non-interest expense for the three years ended 2002 were due to the expanded operations of the Company's bank subsidiaries.

        The efficiency ratio, a measure of non-interest expense to net interest income plus non-interest income, was 47.92% for the year ended December 31, 2002, compared to 50.32% for the year ended December 31, 2001. The Company's efficiency ratio has been under 53% for each of the last five years, which the Company believes is better than national peer group ratios.

    Effects of Inflation

        The principal component of earnings is net interest income, which is affected by changes in the level of interest rates. Changes in rates of inflation affect interest rates. It is difficult to precisely measure the impact of inflation on net interest income because it is not possible to accurately differentiate between increases in net interest income resulting from inflation and increases resulting from increased business activity. Inflation also raises costs of operation, primarily those of employment and services.

Financial Condition

    Loans and Allowance for Possible Loan Loss

        Most of the Company's lending activities involve commercial (domestic and foreign), consumer and real estate mortgage financing. In 2002, the Company's efforts to increase its loan volume resulted in an increase of 14.5% in average domestic loans from $2,111,103,000 for 2001 to $2,416,259,000 in 2002 and an increase of 0.3% in average foreign loans from $247,784,000 for 2001 to $248,597,000 in 2002 for an increase of 13.0% in total average loans from $2,358,887,000 for 2001 to $2,664,856,000 in 2002. The average yield for these loans decreased 1.4% for domestic loans and decreased by 3.4% for foreign loans in 2002 as compared to 2001. The Company experienced an increase of 14% in average domestic loans from 2000 to 2001 and a .26% increase in average foreign loans from 2000 to 2001. The yield for these loans decreased 1.9% for domestic loans and decreased by 0.2% for foreign loans in 2001 as compared to 2000.

        Loan commitments, consisting of unused commitments to lend, letters of credit, credit card lines and other approved loans, which have not been funded, were $722,453,000 at December 31, 2002. See Note 18 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

        The allowance for possible loan losses increased 10.4% from $40,065,000 at December 31, 2001 to $44,213,000 at December 31, 2002 and increased 30.0% from $30,812,000 at December 31, 2000 to $40,065,000 at December 31, 2001. The provision for possible loan losses charged to expense decreased 1.0% from $8,631,000 in 2001 to $8,541,000 in 2002 and increased 26.5% from $6,824,000 in 2000 to $8,631,000 in 2001. The 2001 increase in the allowance for possible loan losses was largely due to the increase in the size of the loan portfolio and the addition of $3,995,000 in existing allowance for loan losses as part of the loan portfolio acquired in the NBC acquisition. The allowance for possible loan losses was 1.6% of total loans, net of unearned income, at December 31, 2002 compared to 1.5% at 2001 and 1.4% at 2000. Non-performing assets as a percentage of total loans and total assets were .34% and .14%, respectively, at December 31, 2002, and .43% and .18%, respectively, at December 31, 2001. Loans accounted for on a non-accrual basis decreased 52.3% from $8,252,000 at December 31, 2001 to $3,903,000 at December 31, 2002. As loans are placed on non-accrual status, interest previously accrued and recorded is reversed unless the loan is well secured and in the process of collection. Foreclosed assets increased 20.2% from $5,308,000 at December 31, 2001 to $6,381,000 at December 31, 2002. In 2001, non-accruals increased 31.5% from $6,273,000 at December 31, 2000 to $8,252,000 at December 31, 2001 and foreclosed assets increased 186.3% from $1,854,000 at December 31, 2000 to $5,308,000 at December 31, 2001.

        The allowance for possible loan losses consists of the aggregate loan loss allowances of the bank subsidiaries. The allowances are established through charges to operations in the form of provisions for possible loan losses. Loan losses or recoveries are charged or credited directly to the allowances. Management of each of the bank subsidiaries, along with management of the Company, continually reviews the allowances to determine whether additional provisions should be made after considering the preceding factors.

        The bank subsidiaries charge off that portion of any loan which management considers to represent a loss as well as that portion of any other loan which is classified as a "loss" by bank examiners. Commercial, financial and agricultural or real estate loans are generally considered by management to represent a loss, in whole or part, when an exposure beyond any collateral coverage is apparent and when no further collection of the portion of the loan so exposed is anticipated based on the borrower's financial condition and general economic conditions in the borrower's industry. Generally, unsecured consumer loans are charged off when 90 days past due.

        While management of the Company considers that it is generally able to identify borrowers with financial problems reasonably early and to monitor credit extended to such borrowers carefully, there is no precise method of predicting loan losses. The determination that a loan is likely to be un-collectible and that it should be wholly or partially charged off as a loss is an exercise of judgment. Similarly, the determination of the adequacy of the allowance for possible loan losses can be made only on a subjective basis. It is the judgment of the Company's management that the allowance for possible loan losses at December 31, 2002 was adequate to absorb probable losses from loans in the portfolio at that date. See Critical Accounting Policies on page 13.

    Investment Securities

        The average balances of taxable investment securities increased 2.6% from $2,854,225,000 for 2001 to $2,927,420,000 for 2002 and decreased 2.7% for 2001 from $2,932,778,000 for 2000.

    Mexico

        On December 31, 2002, the Company had $6,495,635,000 of consolidated assets of which approximately $233,277,000 or 3.6% were related to loans outstanding to borrowers domiciled in Mexico. The loan

6


policies of the Company's bank subsidiaries generally require that loans to borrowers domiciled in Mexico be primarily secured by assets located in the United States or have credit enhancements, in the form of guarantees, from significant United States corporations. The composition of such loans and the related amounts of allocated allowance for possible loan losses as of December 31, 2002 is presented below.

    Deposits

        The Company offers a variety of deposit accounts having a wide range of interest rates and terms. The Company relies primarily on its high quality customer service and advertising to attract and retain these deposits. Deposits provide the primary source of funding for the Company's lending and investment activities, and the interest paid for deposits must be managed carefully to control the level of interest expense. Deposits at December 31, 2002 were $4,239,899,000, a decrease of 2.1% over $4,332,834,000 at December 31, 2001, which represented an increase of 15.7% from $3,744,598,000 at December 31, 2000. The decrease in deposits from 2002 to 2001 is primarily attributable to the sale of the bank branches.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

    Generally

        The maintenance of adequate liquidity provides the Company's bank subsidiaries with the ability to meet potential depositor withdrawals, provide for customer credit needs, maintain adequate statutory reserve levels and take full advantage of high-yield investment opportunities as they arise. Liquidity is afforded by access to financial markets and by holding appropriate amounts of liquid assets. The bank subsidiaries of the Company derive their liquidity largely from deposits of individuals and business entities. Historically, the Mexico based deposits of the Company's bank subsidiaries have been a stable source of funding. Deposits from persons and entities domiciled in Mexico comprise a significant and stable portion of the deposit base of the Company's bank subsidiaries. Such deposits comprised approximately 41%, 40%

7


and 42% of the Company's bank subsidiaries' total deposits as of December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Other important funding sources for the Company's bank subsidiaries during 2002 and 2001 have been wholesale liabilities with the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") and large certificates of deposit, requiring management to closely monitor its asset/liability mix in terms of both rate sensitivity and maturity distribution. Primary liquidity of the Company and its subsidiaries has been maintained by means of increased investment in shorter-term securities, certificates of deposit and loans. As in the past, the Company will continue to monitor the volatility and cost of funds in an attempt to match maturities of rate-sensitive assets and liabilities, and respond accordingly to anticipated fluctuations in interest rates over reasonable periods of time.

        The Company's funds management policy has as its primary focus the measurement and management of the banks' earnings at risk in the face of rising and falling interest rate forecasts. The earliest and most simplistic concept of earnings at risk measurement is the gap report, which is used to generate a rough estimate of the vulnerability of net interest income to changes in market rates as implied by the relative re-pricings of assets and liabilities. The gap report calculates the difference between the amounts of assets and liabilities re-pricing across a series of intervals in time, with emphasis typically placed on the one-year period. This difference, or gap, is usually expressed as a percentage of total assets.

        If an excess of liabilities over assets matures or re-prices within the one-year period, the balance sheet is said to be negatively gapped. This condition is sometimes interpreted to suggest that an institution is liability-sensitive, indicating that earnings would suffer from rising rates and benefit from falling rates. If a surplus of assets over liabilities occurs in the one-year time frame, the balance sheet is said to be positively gapped, suggesting a condition of asset sensitivity in which earnings would benefit from rising rates and suffer from falling rates.

        The gap report thus consists of an inventory of dollar amounts of assets and liabilities that have the potential to mature or re-price within a particular period. The flaw in drawing conclusions about interest rate risk from the gap report is that it takes no account of the probability that potential maturities or re-pricings of interest-rate-sensitive accounts will occur, or at what relative magnitudes. Because simplicity, rather than utility, is the only virtue of gap analysis, financial institutions increasingly have either abandoned gap analysis or accorded it a distinctly secondary role in managing their interest-rate risk exposure. See page 15 of the Company's Form 10-K for a tabular summary of the Company's interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities by their re-pricing dates at December 31, 2002.

        The detailed inventory of balance sheet items contained in gap reports is the starting point of income simulation analysis. Income simulation analysis also focuses on the variability of net interest income and net income, but without the limitations of gap analysis. In particular, the fundamental, but often unstated, assumption of the gap approach that every balance sheet item that can re-price will do so to the full extent of any movement in market interest rates is taken into consideration in income simulation analysis.

        Accordingly, income simulation analysis captures not only the potential of assets and liabilities to mature or re-price but also the probability that they will do so. Moreover, income simulation analysis focuses on the relative sensitivities of these balance sheet items and projects their behavior over an extended period of time in a motion picture rather than snapshot fashion. Finally, income simulation analysis permits management to assess the probable effects on balance sheet items not only of changes in market interest rates but also of proposed strategies for responding to such changes. The Company and many other institutions rely primarily upon income simulation analysis in measuring and managing exposure to interest rate risk.

        At December 31, 2002, based on these simulations, a rate shift of 200 basis points in interest rates either up or down will not vary earnings by more than 3 percent of projected 2003 net interest income. A 200 basis point shift in interest rates is a hypothetical rate scenario used to calibrate risk, and does not necessarily represent management's current view of future market developments.

8



        All the measurements of risk described above are made based upon the Company's business mix and interest rate exposures at the particular point in time. The exposure changes continuously as a result of the Company's ongoing business and its risk management initiatives. While management believes these measures provide a meaningful representation of the Company's interest rate sensitivity, they do not necessarily take into account all business developments that have an effect on net income, such as changes in credit quality or the size and composition of the balance sheet.

        Principal sources of liquidity and funding for the Company are dividends from subsidiaries and borrowed funds, with such funds being used to finance the Company's cash flow requirements. The Company closely monitors the dividend restrictions and availability from the bank subsidiaries as disclosed in Note 19 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. At December 31, 2002, the aggregate amount legally available to be distributed to the Company from bank subsidiaries as dividends was approximately $188,000,000, assuming that each bank subsidiary continues to be classified as "well capitalized" under the applicable regulations. The restricted capital (capital, surplus and certified surplus) of the bank subsidiaries was approximately $399,042,000 as of December 31, 2002. The undivided profits of the bank subsidiaries were approximately $251,625,000 as of December 31, 2002.

        As of December 31, 2002, the Company has outstanding $1,185,857,000 in other borrowed funds and long-term debt. In addition to borrowed funds and dividends, the Company has a number of other available alternatives to finance the growth of its existing banks as well as future growth and expansion.

        The Company maintains an adequate level of capital as a margin of safety for its depositors and shareholders. At December 31, 2002, shareholders' equity was $547,264,000 compared to $497,028,000 at December 31, 2001, an increase of $50,236,000, or 10%. The increase in shareholders' equity resulted from the retention of earnings and comprehensive income. Comprehensive income includes unrealized gains or losses on securities held available for sale and changes in the fair value of derivative instruments of an equity method investee, net of tax. The accumulated other comprehensive income is not included in the calculation of regulatory capital ratios.

        During 1990, the Federal Reserve Board ("FRB") adopted a minimum leverage ratio of 3% for the most highly rated bank holding companies and at least 4% to 5% for all other bank holding companies. The Company's leverage ratio (defined as shareholders' equity plus eligible trust preferred securities issued and outstanding less goodwill and certain other intangibles divided by average quarterly assets) was 8.71% at December 31, 2002 and 6.67% at December 31, 2001. The core deposit intangibles and goodwill of $74,611,000 as of December 31, 2002, recorded in connection with financial institution acquisitions of the Company after February 1992, are deducted from the sum of core capital elements when determining the capital ratios of the Company.

        The FRB has adopted risk-based capital guidelines which assign risk weightings to assets and off-balance sheet items. The guidelines also define and set minimum capital requirements (risk-based capital ratios). Under the final 1992 rules, all banks are required to have Tier 1 capital of at least 4.0% of risk-weighted assets and total capital of 8.0% of risk-weighted assets. Tier 1 capital consists principally of shareholders' equity plus trust preferred securities issued and outstanding less goodwill and certain other intangibles, while total capital consists of Tier 1 capital, certain debt instruments and a portion of the reserve for loan losses. In order to be deemed well capitalized pursuant to the regulations, an institution must have a total risk-weighted capital ratio of 10%, a Tier 1 risk-weighted ratio of 6% and a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 5%. The Company had risk-weighted Tier 1 capital ratios of 15.95% and 13.83% and risk weighted total capital ratios of 17.21% and 15.06% as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, which are well above the minimum regulatory requirements and exceed the well capitalized ratios (see note 19 to notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

        During the past few years the Company has expanded its banking facilities. Among the activities and commitments the Company funded during 2002 and 2001 were certain capital expenditures relating to the

9



modernization and improvement of several existing bank facilities and the expansion of the bank branch network.

    Trust Preferred Securities

        The Company has formed six statutory business trusts under the laws of the State of Delaware, for the purpose of issuing trust preferred securities (the "Trusts"). The Trusts have issued Capital and Common Securities and invested the proceeds in an equivalent amount thereof in Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures (the "Debentures") issued by the Company. The Debentures will mature on various dates; however the Debentures may be redeemed at specified prepayment prices, in whole or in part after the specified dates, or in whole within 90 days upon the occurrence of any one of certain legal, regulatory or tax events specified in the Indenture. Through December 31, 2002, the amount of Capital Securities outstanding totaled $135,000,000.

        The Debentures are subordinated and junior in right of payment to all present and future senior indebtedness (as defined in the Indentures) of the Company, and are pari passu with one another. The interest rate payable on, and the payment terms of the Debentures is the same as the distribution rate and payment terms of the respective issues of Capital and Common Securities issued by the Trusts. The Company has fully and unconditionally guaranteed the obligations of each of the Trusts with respect to the Capital and Common Securities. The Company has the right, unless an Event of Default (as defined in the Indentures) has occurred and is continuing, to defer payment of interest on the Debentures for up to ten consecutive semi-annual periods. If interest payments on any of the Debentures are deferred, distributions on both the Capital and Common Securities related to that Debenture would also be deferred. The redemption prior to maturity of any of the Debentures may require the prior approval of the Federal Reserve and/or other regulatory bodies.

        For financial reporting purposes, the Trusts are treated as non-banking subsidiaries of the Company and consolidated in the consolidated financial statements. Although the Capital Securities issued by each of the Trusts are included as long-term debt and not as a component of shareholders' equity on the statement of condition, the Capital Securities are treated as capital for regulatory purposes. Specifically, under applicable regulatory guidelines, the Capital Securities issued by the Trusts qualify as Tier 1 capital up to a maximum of 25% of Tier 1 capital on an aggregate basis. Any amount that exceeds the 25% threshold would qualify as Tier 2 capital. To date, all of the Capital Securities qualify as Tier 1 capital. Management of the Company believes that the treatment of the trust preferred securities as Tier 1 capital, in addition to the ability to deduct the expense of the related Debentures for federal income tax purposes, provided the Company with a cost-effective method of raising capital.

        The following table illustrates key information about each of the Capital Securities and their interest rate at December 31, 2002:

    Stock Repurchase Program

        The Company expanded its formal stock repurchase program on January 28, 2002, June 6, 2002, September 19, 2002 and November 6, 2002. Under the expanded stock repurchase program, the Company is authorized to repurchase up to $140,000,000 of its common stock through December 2003. Stock repurchases may be made from time to time, on the open market or through private transactions. Shares repurchased in this program will be held in treasury for reissue for various corporate purposes, including employee stock option plans. As of March 24, 2003, a total of 3,208,112 shares had been repurchased under this program at a cost of $127,674,000, which shares are now reflected as 4,145,394 shares of treasury stock as adjusted for stock dividends. Stock repurchases are reviewed quarterly at the Company's Board of Directors meetings and the Board of Directors has stated that the aggregate investment in treasury stock should not exceed $160,973,000. In the past, the Board of Directors has increased previous caps on treasury stock once they were met, but there are no assurances that an increase of the $160,973,000 cap will occur in the future. As of March 24, 2003, the Company has approximately $148,737,000 invested in treasury shares, adjusted for stock dividends, which amount has been accumulated since the inception of the Company.

Critical Accounting Policies

        The Company has established various accounting policies which govern the application of accounting principles in the preparation of the Company's consolidated financial statements. The significant accounting policies are described in the footnotes to the consolidated financial statements. Certain accounting policies involve significant judgments and assumptions by management which have a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities; management considers such accounting policies to be critical accounting policies.

        The Company considers its Allowance for Possible Loan Losses policy as a policy critical to the sound operations of the Banks. See also discussion regarding the allowance for possible loan losses and provision for possible loan losses included in the results of operations and "Provision and Allowance for Possible Loan Losses" included in Notes 1 and 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further information regarding the Company's provision and allowance for possible loan losses policy.

        The allowance for possible loan losses consists of the aggregate loan loss allowances of the bank subsidiaries. The allowances are established through charges to operations in the form of provisions for possible loan losses. Loan losses or recoveries are charged or credited directly to the allowances. The allowance for possible loan losses of each bank subsidiary is maintained at a level considered appropriate by management, based on estimated probable losses in the loan portfolio. The allowance is derived from the following elements: (i) allowances established on specific loans, and (ii) allowances based on historical loss experience on the Company's remaining loan portfolio.

        The specific loan loss provision is determined using the following methods. On a weekly basis, loan past due reports are reviewed by the servicing loan officer to determine if the loan has any potential problem and if the loan should be placed on the Company's internal classified report. The Company's credit department reviews the majority of the loans regardless of past due status and to determine if the loan should be placed on an internal classified report because of issues related to the analysis of the credit, credit documents, collateral and/or payment history. As part of its review process, the credit department will discuss the loans with the servicing loan officers to determine any relevant issues that were not discovered in the evaluation. Also, any analysis on loans that is provided through examinations by regulatory authorities is considered in the review process.

        The Company's internal classified report is segregated into the following categories: (i) "Pass Credits," (ii) "Special Review Credits," or (iii) "Watch List Credits." The loans placed in the "Pass Credits" category reflect the Company's opinion that the loan conforms to the bank's lending policies, which includes the borrower's ability to repay, the value of the underlying collateral, if any, as it relates to the outstanding indebtedness of the loan, and the economic environment and industry in which the borrower operates. The loans placed in the "Special Review Credits" category reflect the Company's opinion that the loans reflect potential weakness which required monitoring on a more frequent basis; however, the "Special Review Credits" are not considered to need a specific reserve at the time, but are reviewed and discussed on a regular basis with the credit department and the lending staff to determine if a change in category is warranted. The loans placed in the "Watchlist Credits" category reflect the Company's opinion that the loans contain clearly pronounced credit weaknesses and/or inherent financial weaknesses of the borrower. Credits classified as "Watch List Credits" are evaluated under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan," criteria and, if deemed necessary a specific reserve is allocated to the credit. The specific reserve allocated under SFAS No. 114, is based on (1) the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate; (2) the loan's observable market price; or (3) the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.

        The allowances based on historical loss experience on the Company's remaining loan portfolio is determined by segregating the remaining loan portfolio into similar categories such as commercial loans, installment loans, international loans and overdrafts. Installment loans are then further segregated by

12



number of days past due. A historical loss percentage, adjusted for management's evaluation of changes in lending policies and procedures and current economic conditions in the market area served by the Company is applied to each category.

        The Company's management continually reviews the loan loss allowance of the bank subsidiaries using the amounts determined from the allowances established on specific loans, the allowance established based on historical percentages and the loans charged off and recoveries to establish an appropriate amount to maintain in the Company's loan loss allowance. If the basis of the Company's assumptions change, the loan loss allowance would either decrease or increase and the Company would increase or decrease the provision for loan loss charged to operations accordingly.

Recent Accounting Standards Issued

        In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 141 "Business Combinations", and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." SFAS No. 141 requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 as well as all purchase method business combinations completed after June 30, 2001. SFAS No. 141 also specifies criteria that intangible assets acquired in a purchase method business combination must meet to be recognized and reported apart from goodwill. SFAS No. 142 requires that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives no longer be amortized, but instead tested for impairment at least annually in accordance with the provisions in SFAS No. 142. SFAS No. 142 requires that intangible assets with definite useful lives be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values, and reviewed for impairment in accordance with SFAS No 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets."

        On July 1, 2001, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS 141 and certain provisions of SFAS 142 as required for goodwill and intangible assets resulting from business combinations consummated after June 30, 2001. The Company acquired approximately 71% of outstanding common shares of National Bancshares Corporation of Texas on November 20, 2001 and the remaining 29% outstanding common shares on December 31, 2001. The Company recorded an identified intangible asset and goodwill of $35,126,000 related to the acquisition. Under the provisions of SFAS No. 142, the amount of goodwill acquired in the acquisition that was not amortized during 2001 was not significant.

        SFAS No. 141 requires upon adoption of SFAS No. 142, that the Company evaluate its existing intangible assets and goodwill that were acquired in prior purchase business combinations, and to make any necessary reclassifications in order to conform with the new classification criteria in SFAS No. 141 for recognition apart from goodwill. Upon adoption of SFAS No. 142, the Company is required to reassess the useful lives and residual values of all intangible assets acquired in purchase business combinations, and make any necessary amortization period adjustments by the end of the first interim period after adoption. In addition, to the extent an intangible asset is identified as having an indefinite useful life, the Company is required to test the intangible asset for impairment in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142 within the first interim period. Any impairment loss will be measured as of the date of adoption and recognized as the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle in the first interim period.

        The Company adopted the remaining provisions of SFAS No. 142 as of January 1, 2002 and no longer amortizes goodwill relating to business combinations consummated before July 1, 2001. As of the date of the adoption, the Company had unamortized goodwill in the amount of $69,639,000 and unamortized identifiable intangible assets in the amount of $21,978,000, all of which are subject to the transition provisions of SFAS No. 141 and No. 142. Amortization expense related to goodwill that will no longer be amortized was $2,846,000 and $2,092,000 for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. In addition, the Company has evaluated its existing intangible assets and determined that no reclassifications were necessary to conform to the new criteria in SFAS No. 141 for recognition apart from goodwill. The Company performed a transitional assessment of whether there is an indication that goodwill is impaired.

13



The Company concluded that it is probable that its investment services reporting unit is impaired. The amount of the impairment is $5,130,000, net of tax, which is reported as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle, net of tax, in 2002.

        In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets", which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. While SFAS No. 144 supercedes SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of," it retains many of the fundamental provisions of SFAS No. 121, establishes a single accounting model for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale, and resolves certain implementation issues not previously addressed by SFAS No. 121. SFAS No. 144 also supercedes the accounting and reporting provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Opinion No. 30, "Reporting the Results of Operations—Reporting the Effects of a Disposal of a Segment of a Business and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions", for the disposal of a segment of a business. However, it retains the requirement in Opinion No. 30 to report separately discontinued operations and extends the reporting to a component of an entity, rather than a segment of a business, that either has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale. SFAS No. 144 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The Company adopted SFAS No. 144 on January 1, 2002. The adoption of SFAS No. 144 did not have an impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

        In October 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 147 "Acquisitions of Certain Financial Institutions, an amendment of FASB Statements No. 72 and 144 and FASB Interpretation No. 9". SFAS No. 72 required that in acquisitions of financial institutions, any excess of the fair value of liabilities assumed over the fair value of tangible and intangible assets acquired be accounted for as an unidentifiable intangible asset and subsequently amortized. SFAS No. 72 unidentified intangible assets were excluded from the scope of SFAS No. 141 and SFAS No. 142. Except for transactions between two or more mutual companies, SFAS No. 147 removes acquisitions of financial institutions from the scope of SFAS No. 72 and FASB Interpretation No. 9 and requires that those transactions be accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 141 and SFAS No. 142. SFAS No. 147 is effective October 1, 2002 and requires that if the transaction that gave rise to the unidentified intangible asset was a business combination, the carrying amount of that asset shall be reclassified to goodwill as of the later of the date of acquisition or the date of the full application of SFAS No. 142. SFAS No. 147 also requires that any interim or annual financial statements that reflect the amortization of the unidentified intangible asset subsequent to the full application of SFAS 142 shall be restated to remove that amortization expense. The Company adopted SFAS No. 147 on October 1, 2002. Upon the adoption of SFAS No. 147, the Company reclassified $10,487,000 from intangible assets to goodwill and reversed $792,000 of amortization expense recognized during 2002 related to the SFAS 72 unidentified intangible asset.

        In December 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issue SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition Disclosure, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123." SFAS No. 148 amends SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, SFAS No. 148 amends the disclosure requirement of SFAS No. 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation for those companies that have elected to continue to apply Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 ("APB 25"), "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." The adoption of SFAS No. 148 did not have an impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

        In November 2002, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 45 ("FIN 45"), "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others, an interpretation of FASB Statements No. 5, 57 and 107 and rescission of FASB Interpretation No. 34." FIN 45 elaborates on the disclosures to be made by a guarantor in its interim and annual financial

14



statements about its obligations under certain guarantees that it has issued. This Interpretation also incorporates, without change, the guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 34 ("FIN 34"), "Disclosure of Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others," which is being superceded. FIN 45 also clarifies that a guarantor is required to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the obligations it has undertaken in issuing the guarantee, including its ongoing obligations to stand ready to perform over the term of the guarantee in the event that the specified triggering events or conditions occur. The initial recognition and initial measurement provisions of FIN 45 are applicable on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002, irrespective of the guarantor's fiscal year-end. The disclosure requirements are effective for financial statements of interim or annual periods ending after December 15, 2002 and are included in the notes to the Company's consolidated financial statements. The adoption of FIN 45 did not have an impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

        We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.

INTERNATIONAL BANCSHARES CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

        The accounting and reporting policies of International Bancshares Corporation ("Corporation") and Subsidiaries (the Corporation and Subsidiaries collectively referred to herein as the "Company") conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and to general practices within the banking industry. The following is a description of the more significant of those policies.

Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

        The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Corporation and its wholly-owned bank subsidiaries, International Bank of Commerce, Laredo ("IBC"), Commerce Bank, International Bank of Commerce, Zapata, International Bank of Commerce, Brownsville, and the Corporation's wholly-owned non-bank subsidiaries, IBC Subsidiary Corporation, IBC Life Insurance Company, IBC Trading Company and IBC Capital Corporation, International Bancshares Capital Trust I, International Bancshares Capital Trust II, International Bancshares Capital Trust III, International Bancshares Capital Trust IV, International Bancshares Capital Trust V, International Bancshares Capital Trust VI and NBC Acquisitions Corp. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

        The Company, through its subsidiaries, is primarily engaged in the business of banking, including the acceptance of checking and savings deposits and the making of commercial, real estate, personal, home improvement, automobile and other installment and term loans. The primary markets of the Company are South and Southeast Texas. Each bank subsidiary is very active in facilitating international trade along the United States border with Mexico and elsewhere. Although the Company's loan portfolio is diversified, the ability of the Company's debtors to honor their contracts is primarily dependent upon the economic conditions in the Company's trade area. In addition, the investment portfolio is directly impacted by fluctuations in market interest rates. The Company and its bank subsidiaries are subject to the regulations of certain Federal agencies as well as the Texas Department of Banking and undergo periodic examinations by those regulatory authorities. Such agencies may require certain standards or impose certain limitations based on their judgments or changes in law and regulations.

        The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting policies generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the dates of the statement of condition and income and expenses for the periods. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant changes in the near-term relate to the determination of the allowance for possible loan losses.

Per Share Data

        All share and per share information has been restated giving retroactive effect to stock dividends distributed.

Investment Securities

        The Company classifies debt and equity securities into one of these categories: held-to-maturity, available-for-sale, or trading. Such classifications are reassessed for appropriate classification at each reporting date. Securities classified as "held-to-maturity" are carried at amortized cost for financial statement reporting, while securities classified as "available-for-sale" and "trading" are carried at their fair value. Unrealized holding gains and losses are included in net income for those securities classified as

23



"trading", while unrealized holding gains and losses related to those securities classified as "available-for-sale" are excluded from net income and reported net of tax as other comprehensive income and in shareholders' equity as accumulated other comprehensive income until realized. The Company did not maintain any trading securities during the three year period ended December 31, 2002.

        Mortgage-backed securities held at December 31, 2002 and 2001 represent participating interests in pools of long-term first mortgage loans originated and serviced by the issuers of the securities. Premiums and discounts are amortized using the straight-line method over the contractual maturity of the loans adjusted for anticipated prepayments. Income recognized under the straight-line method is not materially different from income that would be recognized under the level yield or "interest method". Mortgage-backed securities are either issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government or its agencies. Market interest rate fluctuations can affect the prepayment speed of principal and the yield on the security.

Unearned Discounts

        Consumer loans are frequently made on a discount basis. The amount of the discount is subsequently included in interest income ratably over the term of the related loans to approximate the effective interest method.

Provision and Allowance for Possible Loan Losses

        The allowance for possible loan losses is maintained at a level considered adequate by management to provide for probable loan losses. The allowance is increased by provisions charged to operating expense and reduced by net charge-offs. The provision for possible loan losses is the amount, which, in the judgment of management, is necessary to establish the allowance for probable loan losses at a level that is adequate to absorb known and inherent risks in the loan portfolio.

        Management believes that the allowance for possible loan losses is adequate. While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans, future additions to the allowance may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company's bank subsidiaries allowances for possible loan losses. Such agencies may require the Company's bank subsidiaries to recognize additions or reductions to their allowances based on their judgments of information available to them at the time of their examination.

Non-Accrual Loans

        The non-accrual loan policy of the Company's bank subsidiaries is to discontinue the accrual of interest on loans when management determines that it is probable that future interest accruals will be un-collectible. Interest income on non-accrual loans is recognized only to the extent payments are received or when, in management's opinion, the creditor's financial condition warrants reestablishment of interest accruals.

Other Real Estate Owned

        Other real estate owned is comprised of real estate acquired by foreclosure and deeds in lieu of foreclosure. Other real estate is carried at the lower of the recorded investment in the property or its fair value less estimated costs to sell such property (as determined by independent appraisal). Prior to

24



foreclosure, the value of the underlying loan is written down to the fair value of the real estate to be acquired by a charge to the allowance for loan possible losses, if necessary. Any subsequent write-downs are charged against other non-interest expense. Operating expenses of such properties and gains and losses on their disposition are included in other non-interest expense.

Bank Premises and Equipment

        Bank premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed on straight-line and accelerated methods over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred and expenditures for renewals and betterments are capitalized.

Income Taxes

        Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined using the asset and liability method. Under this method, the net deferred tax asset or liability is determined based on the tax effects of the differences between the book and tax basis of the various balance sheet assets and liabilities and gives current recognition to changes in tax rates and laws. The Company files a consolidated federal income tax return with its subsidiaries.

Stock Options

        In December 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148 ("SFAS No. 148"), "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition and Disclosure, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123." SFAS No. 148 amends SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, SFAS No. 148 amends the disclosure requirement of SFAS No. 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation for those companies that have elected to continue to apply Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 ("APB 25"), "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." The adoption of SFAS No. 148 did not have an impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

        At December 31, 2002, the Company had one stock-based employee compensation plan, which is described more fully in Note 14. The Company accounts for the plan under the recognition and measurement principles of APB 25 and related interpretations. No stock-based employee cost is reflected in net income, as all options granted under the plan had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and

25



earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 to stock based employee compensation.

  As reported   $ 3.08   $ 2.47   $ 2.22  
  Pro forma     3.03     2.42     2.16  

Net Income Per Share

        Basic Earnings Per Share ("EPS") is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. The computation of diluted EPS assumes the issuance of common shares for all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the reporting period. The dilutive effect of stock options is considered in earnings per share calculations if dilutive, using the treasury stock method.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

        Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of identifiable net assets associated with acquisition transactions. Through 2001, the Company amortized goodwill related to acquisitions prior to July 1, 2001 on a straight-line basis over 15 years and identifiable intangibles on a straight-line basis over their estimated periods of benefit. In addition, the Company reviewed its intangible assets periodically for other-than-temporary impairments. If such impairments were indicated, recoverability of the asset was assessed based on expected undiscounted net cash flows.

        In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 141 ("SFAS No. 141"), "Business Combinations", and SFAS No. 142 ("SFAS No. 142"), "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." SFAS No. 141 requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 as well as all purchase method business combinations completed after June 30, 2001. SFAS No. 141 also specifies criteria that intangible assets acquired in a purchase method business combination must meet to be recognized and reported apart from goodwill. SFAS No. 142 requires that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives no longer be amortized, but instead tested for impairment at least annually in accordance with the provisions in SFAS No. 142. SFAS No. 142 requires that intangible assets with definite useful lives be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values, and reviewed for

26



impairment in accordance with SFAS No 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets".

        On July 1, 2001, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS 141 and certain provisions of SFAS 142 as required for goodwill and intangible assets resulting from business combinations consummated after June 30, 2001.

        The Company adopted the remaining provisions of SFAS No. 142 as of January 1, 2002. See Note 15 for the effects of the adoption of SFAS No. 142.

        In October 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 147 ("SFAS No. 147") "Acquisitions of Certain Financial Institutions, an amendment of FASB Statements No 72 and 144 and FASB Interpretation No. 9". SFAS No. 72 required that in acquisitions of financial institutions, any excess of the fair value of liabilities assumed over the fair value of tangible and intangible assets acquired be accounted for as an unidentifiable intangible asset and subsequently amortized. SFAS No. 72 unidentified intangible assets were excluded from the scope of SFAS No. 141 and SFAS No. 142. Except for transactions between two or more mutual companies, SFAS No. 147 removes acquisitions of financial institutions from the scope of SFAS No. 72 and FASB Interpretation No. 9 and requires that those transactions be accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 141 and SFAS No. 142. SFAS No. 147 is effective October 1, 2002 and requires that if the transaction that gave rise to the unidentified intangible asset was a business combination, the carrying amount of that asset shall be reclassified to goodwill as of the later of the date of acquisition or the date of the full application of SFAS No. 142. SFAS No. 147 also requires that any interim or annual financial statements that reflect the amortization of the unidentified intangible asset subsequent to the full application of SFAS 142 shall be restated to remove that amortization expense. The Company adopted SFAS No. 147 as of October 1, 2002. Upon the adoption of SFAS No. 147, the Company reclassified $10,487,000 from intangible assets to goodwill and reversed $792,000 of amortization expense recognized during 2002 related to the SFAS 72 unidentified intangible asset.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

        In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets," which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. While SFAS No. 144 supercedes SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of," it retains many of the fundamental provisions of SFAS No 121, establishes a single accounting model for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale, and resolves certain implementation issues not previously addressed by SFAS No. 121. SFAS No. 144 also supercedes the accounting and reporting provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Opinion No. 30, ("Opinion No. 30") "Reporting the Results of Operations—Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions," for the disposal of a segment of a business; however, it retains the requirement in Opinion No. 30 to report separately discontinued operations and extends the reporting to a component of an entity, rather than a segment of a business, that either has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale. SFAS No. 144 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The Company adopted SFAS No. 144 on January 1, 2002. The adoption of SFAS No. 144 did not have an impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

27



Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows

        For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company considers all short-term investments with a maturity at date of purchase of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Also, the Company reports transactions related to deposits with other financial institutions, customer time deposits and loans to customers on a net basis.

Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets

        The Company accounts for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities based on the application of a financial-components approach that focuses on control. After a transfer of financial assets, the Company recognizes the financial and servicing assets it controls and liabilities it has incurred, derecognizes financial assets when control has been surrendered and derecognizes liabilities when extinguished.

Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information

        The Company applies the provisions of SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information," in determining its reportable segments and related disclosures. Management of the Company believes that it does not have separate reportable operating segments under the provisions of SFAS No. 131. The Company's non-banking operations do not meet the threshold for reporting as separate segments.

Derivative Instruments

        The Company currently does not directly engage in hedging activities and does not directly hold any derivative instruments or embedded derivatives. However, the Company's equity method investee, Aircraft Finance Trust ("AFT"), uses derivative instruments to manage the interest rate on the bonds that AFT has issued. The derivative instruments qualify as cash flow hedges under the provisions of SFAS 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" and as such, the Company's proportionate share of changes in fair value of the derivative instruments are included in comprehensive income and accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax. The Company adopted SFAS No. 133 on January 1, 2001 and the adoption did not have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees

        In November 2002, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 45 ("FIN 45"), "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others, an interpretation of FASB Statements No. 5, 57 and 107 and rescission of FASB Interpretation No. 34." FIN 45 elaborates on the disclosures to be made by a guarantor in its interim and annual financial statements about its obligations under certain guarantees that it has issued. This Interpretation also incorporates, without change, the guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 34 ("FIN 34"), "Disclosure of Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others," which is being superceded. FIN 45 also clarifies that a guarantor is required to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the obligations it has undertaken in issuing the guarantee, including its ongoing obligations to stand ready to perform over the term of the guarantee in the event that the specified triggering events or conditions occur. The initial recognition and initial measurement provisions of FIN 45 are applicable on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002, irrespective of the guarantor's fiscal

28



year-end. The disclosure requirements are effective for financial statements of interim or annual periods ending after December 15, 2002, and are included in the notes to the Company's consolidated financial statements. The adoption of FIN 45 did not have an impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Reclassifications

        Certain amounts in the prior year's presentations have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on previously reported net income.

(2) Acquisitions

        Effective December 31, 2001, the Company completed its acquisition of National Bancshares Corporation of Texas. The acquisition was effected through a tender offer by the Company's subsidiary, NBC Acquisitions Corp. ("NBC Acquisition"), for all the outstanding shares of National Bancshares Corporation of Texas, ("NBC"), followed by the merger of NBC Acquisitions with and into NBC. Additionally, on December 31, 2001, NBC's subsidiary commercial bank, NBC Bank, N.A. ("NBC Bank"), was merged with and into the Company's lead bank, IBC, and the three former NBC Bank branches located in Laredo, Texas were transferred to another subsidiary bank, Commerce Bank, Laredo, Texas.

        The acquisition of NBC was accounted for as a purchase under the provisions of SFAS No. 141. The purchase price for the outstanding common shares of NBC in the tender offer and the merger was $24.75 per common share, and the total consideration paid to NBC shareholders was $93,681,000 (exclusive of amounts paid to option holders).

        The following table summarizes the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of the acquisition, in thousands.

Cash and due from banks   $ 73,881  
Investments     222,445  
Net loans     278,200  
Goodwill     24,192  
Other intangible asset     10,934  
Other assets     26,079  
   
 
  Total assets acquired     635,731  
   
 
Deposits     (531,461 )
Other liabilities     (10,589 )
  Total liabilities assumed     (542,050 )
   
 
Net assets acquired   $ 93,681  
   
 

        The intangible asset is core deposit premium and has a useful life of approximately 10 years. Goodwill and the other intangible asset in the amount of approximately $35,126,000 are deductible for tax purposes. The amount of goodwill that was not amortized under the provisions of SFAS No. 142 for the year ended December 31, 2001 was not significant.

(4) Allowance for Possible Loan Losses

        A summary of the transactions in the allowance for possible loan losses for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 is as follows:

Balance at December 31, 2002   $ 44,213   $ 40,065   $ 30,812  
   
 
 
 

        Loans accounted for on a non-accrual basis at December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 amounted to $3,903,000, $8,252,000 and $6,273,000, respectively. The effect of such non-accrual loans reduced interest income by $567,000, $695,000 and $842,000 for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Amounts received on non-accruals are applied, for financial accounting purposes, first to principal and then to interest after all principal has been collected.

        Impaired loans are those loans where it is probable that all amounts due according to contractual terms of the loan agreement will not be collected. The Company has identified these loans through its normal loan review procedures. Impaired loans are measured based on (1) the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate; (2) the loan's observable market price; or (3) the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. Substantially all of the Company's impaired loans are measured at the fair value of the collateral. In limited cases the Company may use other methods to determine the level of impairment of a loan if such loan is not collateral dependent.

        Impaired loans were $3,428,000 at December 31, 2002, $4,958,000 at December 31, 2001 and $5,226,000 at December 31, 2000. The average recorded investment in impaired loans during 2002, 2001, and 2000 was $4,289,000, $5,997,000 and $6,064,000, respectively. The total allowance for possible loan losses related to these loans was $266,000, $515,000 and $1,772,000 at December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Interest income on impaired loans of $112,000, $412,000 and $279,000 was recognized for cash payments received in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

        Management of the Company recognizes the risks associated with these impaired loans. However, management's decision to place loans in this category does not necessarily mean that losses will occur.

        The bank subsidiaries charge off that portion of any loan which management considers to represent a loss as well as that portion of any other loan which is classified as a "loss" by bank examiners. Commercial and industrial or real estate loans are generally considered by management to represent a loss, in whole or part, when an exposure beyond any collateral coverage is apparent and when no further collection of the loss portion is anticipated based on the borrower's financial condition and general economic conditions in the borrower's industry. Generally, unsecured consumer loans are charged-off when 90 days past due.

        While management of the Company considers that it is generally able to identify borrowers with financial problems reasonably early and to monitor credit extended to such borrowers carefully, there is no precise method of predicting loan losses. The determination that a loan is likely to be un-collectible and

33



that it should be wholly or partially charged-off as a loss is an exercise of judgment. Similarly, the determination of the adequacy of the allowance for possible loan losses can be made only on a subjective basis. It is the judgment of the Company's management that the allowance for possible loan losses at December 31, 2002 was adequate to absorb probable losses from loans in the portfolio at that date.

(9) Earnings per Share

        Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. The computation of diluted EPS assumes the issuance of common shares for all dilutive

(10)  Employees' Profit Sharing Plan

        The Company has a deferred profit sharing plan for full-time employees with a minimum of one year of continuous employment. The Company's annual contribution to the plan is based on a percentage, as determined by the Board of Directors, of income before income taxes, as defined, for the year. Allocation of the contribution among officers and employees' accounts is based on length of service and amount of salary earned. Profit sharing costs of $2,662,000, $2,084,000 and $1,845,000 were charged to income for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001, and 2000, respectively.

(11)  International Operations

        The Company provides international banking services for its customers through its bank subsidiaries. Neither the Company nor its bank subsidiaries have facilities located outside the United States. International operations are distinguished from domestic operations based upon the domicile of the customer.

        Because the resources employed by the Company are common to both international and domestic operations, it is not practical to determine net income generated exclusively from international activities.

The letters of credit are issued primarily in conjunction with credit facilities, which are available to various Mexican banks doing business with the Company.

        Income directly attributable to international operations was $14,128,000, $22,389,000 and $22,826,000 for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

(12)  Income Taxes (Continued)

        The net deferred tax liability of $36,363,000 and $22,680,000 at December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, is included in other liabilities in the consolidated statements of condition.

        The Company did not record a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets at December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 because management has concluded it is more likely than not the Company will have future taxable earnings in excess of future tax deductions.

(13)    Other Investments

        Included in other investments is the Company's investment in Aircraft Finance Trust ("AFT"), a special purpose business trust formed to acquire and lease aircraft. The Company accounts for its investment in AFT under the equity method of accounting. AFT utilizes derivative instruments to manage the interest rate on bonds that it has issued. The derivatives qualify as cash flow hedges and are reported at fair value. The Company records its proportionate share of the fair value of the derivatives as an increase or decrease in the investment in AFT and accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax.

        The Company's proportionate share of earnings or losses of AFT were losses of $6,799,000 and $1,766,000 for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and earnings of $1,069,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000. Because of the losses from operations that AFT has reported as a result of the events of September 11 and the impact on the airline industry including continued declines in air travel and continued reduced demand for commercial aircraft, the Company evaluated its investment, which resulted in the Company recording an impairment charge of $6,081,000 in 2002.

        At December 31, 2002 and 2001, the Company's investment in AFT, excluding its proportionate share of the fair value of the AFT derivatives was $948,000 and $13,828,000, respectively. The Company's investment including the proportionate share of the fair value of the AFT derivatives at December 31, 2002 and 2001, was $0 and $6,281,000, respectively.

(14)    Stock Options

        On April 3, 1996, the Board of Directors adopted the 1996 International Bancshares Corporation Stock Option Plan (the "1996 Plan"). The 1996 Plan replaced the 1987 International Bancshares Corporation Key Contributor Stock Option Plan (the "1987 Plan"). On April 5, 2001, the Board of Directors amended the 1996 plan and added 300,000 shares to the plan. Under the 1987 Plan and the 1996 Plan both qualified incentive stock options ("ISOs") and nonqualified stock options ("NQSOs") may be granted. Options granted may be exercisable for a period of up to 10 years from the date of grant, excluding ISOs granted to 10% shareholders, which may be exercisable for a period of up to only five years.

        The Company granted nonqualified stock options exercisable for a total of 187,500 shares, adjusted for stock dividends, of Common Stock to certain employees of the GulfStar Group. The grants were not made under either the 1987 Plan or the 1996 Plan. The options are exercisable for a period of seven years and vest in equal increments over a period of five years. All options granted to the GulfStar Group employees had an option price of not less than the fair market value of the Common Stock on or about the date of grant.

        The Company has a formal stock repurchase program and as part of the program, the Company occasionally repurchases shares of Common Stock related to the exercise of stock options through the surrender of other shares of Common Stock of the Company owned by the option holders.

(15)    Adoption of SFAS 142

        The Company fully adopted the remaining provisions of SFAS No. 142 as of January 1, 2002 and discontinued amortizing goodwill relating to business combinations consummated before July 1, 2001. As of the date of the adoption, the Company had unamortized goodwill in the amount of $69,639,000 and unamortized identifiable intangible assets in the amount of $21,978,000. The Company evaluated its existing intangible assets and goodwill that were acquired in prior purchase business combinations and determined that no reclassifications were necessary in order to conform with the new classification criteria in SFAS No. 141 for recognition apart from goodwill. The Company has reassessed the useful lives and residual values of all intangible assets acquired in purchase business combinations and determined that no amortization adjustments were necessary and no intangible assets had indefinite lives.

        The Company performed a transitional assessment of whether there is an indication that goodwill is impaired. The Company concluded that it is probable that the goodwill related to its investment services reporting unit is impaired. The amount of the impairment is $7,893,000, or $5,130,000, net of tax, which is reported as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle, net of tax. The fair value of the investment services reporting unit was estimated using a combination of capitalized cash flows, discounted cash flows and multiples based on publicly traded company's market capitalization to sales.

(16)    Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

        The Company is involved in various legal proceedings that are in various stages of litigation. Some of these actions allege "lender liability" claims on a variety of theories and claim substantial actual and punitive damages. The Company has determined, based on discussions with its counsel that any material loss in such actions, individually or in the aggregate, is remote or the damages sought, even if fully recovered, would not be considered material to the consolidated financial position or results of operations of the Company. However, many of these matters are in various stages of proceedings and further developments could cause management to revise its assessment of these matters.

        The Company leases portions of its banking premises and equipment under operating leases. Total rental expense for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 and non-cancellable lease commitments at December 31, 2002 were not significant.

        Cash of approximately $62,628,000 and $43,671,000 at December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, was maintained to satisfy regulatory reserve requirements.

45



        The Company's lead bank subsidiary has invested in partnerships, which have entered into several lease-financing transactions. The lease-financing transactions in two of the partnerships have been examined by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS"). In both partnerships, the lead bank subsidiary is the owner of a ninety-nine percent (99%) limited partnership interest. The IRS has issued separate Notice of Final Partnership Administrative Adjustments ("FPAAs") to the partnerships and on September 25, 2001, and January 10, 2003, the Company filed lawsuits contesting the adjustments asserted in the FPAAs. Prior to filing the lawsuits, the Company was required to deposit the estimated tax due of approximately $4,083,000 with respect to the first FPAA, and $7,710,606 with respect to the second FPAA, with the IRS pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code. No reliable prediction can be made at this time as to the likely outcome of the lawsuits; however, if the lawsuits are decided adversely to the partnerships, all or a portion of the $12 million in tax benefits previously recognized by the Company in connection with the partnerships' lease-financing transactions would be in question and penalties and interest could be assessed by the IRS.

        In order to curtail the accrual of additional interest related to the disputed tax benefits and because interest rates are unfavorable, the Company decided to submit to the IRS the interest which would have accrued based on the adjustments proposed in the FPAAs related to both of the lease-financing transactions. On March 7, 2003, the Company submitted to the IRS a total of $13,640,797 of interest on the proposed adjustments. If the lawsuits are decided in favor of the Company the prepaid interest and deposits will be returned to the Company plus interest thereon.

        Management has estimated the Company's exposure in connection with these transactions and has reserved an appropriate amount based on the estimated exposure at December 31, 2002. Management intends to continue to evaluate the merits of each matter and make appropriate revisions to the reserve amount as deemed necessary.

(17)    Transactions with Related Parties

        In the ordinary course of business, the Corporation and its subsidiaries make loans to directors and executive officers of the Corporation, including their affiliates, families and companies in which they are principal owners. In the opinion of management, these loans are made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with other persons and do not involve more than normal risk of collectibility or present other unfavorable features. The aggregate amounts receivable from such related parties amounted to approximately $50,780,000 and $31,014,000 at December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

(18)    Financial Instruments with Off-Statement of Condition Risk and Concentrations of Credit Risk

        In the normal course of business, the bank subsidiaries are party to financial instruments with off-statement of condition risk to meet the financing needs of their customers. These financial instruments include commitments to their customers. These financial instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the statement of condition. The contract amounts of these instruments reflect the extent of involvement the bank subsidiaries have in particular classes of

46



financial instruments. At December 31, 2002, the following amounts of financial instruments, whose contract amounts represent credit risks, were outstanding:

Commitments to extend credit   $ 626,330,000
Credit card lines     33,290,000
Standby letters of credit     59,657,000
Commercial letters of credit     3,176,000

        The Company enters into a standby letter of credit to guarantee performance of a customer to a third party. These guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements. The credit risk involved is represented by the contractual amounts of those instruments. Under the standby letters of credit, the Company is required to make payments to the beneficiary of the letters of credit upon request by the beneficiary so long as all performance criteria have been met. At December 31, 2002, the maximum potential amount of future payments is $59,657,000.

        The Company enters into commercial letters of credit on behalf of its customers which authorize a third party to draw drafts on the Company up to a stipulated amount and with specific terms and conditions. A commercial letter of credit is a conditional commitment on the part of the Company to provide payment on drafts drawn in accordance with the terms of the commercial letter of credit.

        The bank subsidiaries' exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the above financial instruments is represented by the contractual amounts of the instruments. The bank subsidiaries use the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as they do for on-statement of condition instruments. The bank subsidiaries control the credit risk of these transactions through credit approvals, limits and monitoring procedures. Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates normally less than one year or other termination clauses and may require the payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The bank subsidiaries evaluate each customer's credit-worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the subsidiary banks upon extension of credit, is based on management's credit evaluation of the customer. Collateral held varies, but may include residential and commercial real estate, bank certificates of deposit, accounts receivable and inventory.

        The bank subsidiaries make commercial, real estate and consumer loans to customers principally located in Webb, Bexar, Hidalgo, Cameron, Starr and Zapata counties in South Texas as well as Matagorda, Brazoria, Galveston, Fort Bend, Calhoun, and Harris counties in Southeast Texas. Although the loan portfolio is diversified, a substantial portion of its debtors' ability to honor their contracts is dependent upon the economic conditions in these areas, especially in the real estate and commercial business sectors.

47



(19)    Dividend Restrictions and Capital Requirements

        Bank regulatory agencies limit the amount of dividends, which the bank subsidiaries can pay the Corporation, through IBC Subsidiary Corporation, without obtaining prior approval from such agencies. At December 31, 2002, the aggregate amount legally available to be distributed to the Company from bank subsidiaries as dividends was approximately $188,000,000, assuming that each subsidiary bank continues to be classified as "well capitalized" pursuant to the applicable regulations. The restricted capital of the bank subsidiaries was approximately $399,042,000. The undivided profits of the bank subsidiaries were $251,625,000. In addition to legal requirements, regulatory authorities also consider the adequacy of the bank subsidiaries' total capital in relation to their deposits and other factors. These capital adequacy considerations also limit amounts available for payment of dividends. The Company historically has not allowed any subsidiary bank to pay dividends in such a manner as to impair its capital adequacy.

        The Company and the bank subsidiaries are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Company's assets, liabilities, and certain off-statement of condition items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company's capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.

        Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table on the following page) of Total and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets and of Tier 1 capital to average assets. Management believes, as of December 31, 2002, that the Company and each of the bank subsidiaries met all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.

        As of December 31, 2002, the most recent notification from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation categorized all the bank subsidiaries as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as "well capitalized" the Company and the bank subsidiaries must maintain minimum Total risk-based, Tier 1 risk based, and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the categorization of the Company or any of the bank subsidiaries as well capitalized.

    Time Deposits with Banks

        As the contract interest rates are comparable to current market rates, the carrying amount approximates fair market value.

    Investment Securities

        For investment securities, which include U. S. Treasury securities, obligations of other U. S. government agencies, obligations of states and political subdivisions and mortgage pass through and related securities, fair values are based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes. Fair values are based on the value of one unit without regard to any premium or discount that may result from concentrations of ownership of a financial instrument, possible tax ramifications, or estimated transaction costs. See disclosures of fair value of investment securities in Note 3.

    Loans

        Fair values are estimated for portfolios of loans with similar financial characteristics. Loans are segregated by type such as commercial, real estate and consumer loans as outlined by regulatory reporting guidelines. Each category is segmented into fixed and variable interest rate terms and by performing and non-performing categories.

        For variable rate performing loans, the carrying amount approximates the fair value. For fixed rate performing loans, except residential mortgage loans, the fair value is calculated by discounting scheduled cash flows through the estimated maturity using estimated market discount rates that reflect the credit and interest rate risk inherent in the loan. For performing residential mortgage loans, fair value is estimated by discounting contractual cash flows adjusted for prepayment estimates using discount rates based on secondary market sources or the primary origination market. At December 31, 2002 and 2001, the carrying amount of fixed rate performing loans was $970,967,000 and $1,407,367,000 respectively, and the estimated fair value was $977,985,000 and $1,406,633,000, respectively.

        Fair value for significant non-performing loans is based on recent external appraisals. If appraisals are not available, estimated cash flows are discounted using a rate commensurate with the risk associated with the estimated cash flows. Assumptions regarding credit risk, cash flows and discount rates are judgmentally determined using available market and specific borrower information. As of December 31, 2002 and 2001, the net carrying amount of non-performing loans was a reasonable estimate of the fair value.

    Deposits

        The fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, such as non-interest bearing demand deposit accounts, savings accounts and interest bearing demand deposit accounts, was equal to the amount payable on demand as of December 31, 2002 and 2001. The fair value of time deposits is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is based on currently offered rates. At December 31, 2002 and 2001, the carrying amount of time deposits was $2,293,026,000 and $2,424,373,000, respectively, and the estimated fair value was $2,273,994,000 and $2,395,652,000, respectively.

    Securities Sold Under Repurchase Agreements, Other Borrowed Funds and Long-term Debt

        Due to the contractual terms of these financial instruments, the carrying amounts approximated fair value at December 31, 2002 and 2001.

    Commitments to Extend Credit and Letters of Credit

        Commitments to extend credit and fund letters of credit are principally at current interest rates and therefore the carrying amount approximates fair value.

51


    Limitations

        Fair value estimates are made at a point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Company's entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Company's financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

        Fair value estimates are based on existing on-and off-statement of condition financial instruments without attempting to estimate the value of anticipated future business and the value of assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments. Other significant assets and liabilities that are not considered financial assets or liabilities include the bank premises and equipment and core deposit value. In addition, the tax ramifications related to the effect of fair value estimates have not been considered in the above estimates.
