<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">LAREDO, Texas&#151;(BUSINESS
WIRE)&#151; February&nbsp;25, 2008&#151;International Bancshares Corporation
(NASDAQ:IBOC) today reported annual net income for 2007 of <b>$121.3</b> million or <b>$1.76 </b>per share - basic (<b>$1.75 </b>per share - diluted) compared to <b>$117.0</b> million or <b>$1.68</b> per share - basic (<b>$1.67 </b>per share - diluted), which
represents a <b>3.7%</b> increase in net income and a <b>4.8%</b> increase in diluted earnings per share
over the corresponding period in 2006.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Net
income for the fourth quarter of 2007 was <b>$35.4</b>
million, or <b>$.52</b> per share &#150; basic
(<b>$.52</b> per share diluted) compared
to <b>$31.8</b> million, or <b>$.45</b> per share &#150; basic (<b>$.45</b> per share diluted), which represents
an <b><font style="font-weight:bold;">11.3</font>%</b>
increase in net income and a <b>15.6%</b> increase
in diluted earnings per share over the corresponding period in 2006.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Net income increased for the
year ended December&nbsp;31, 2007 as compared to the year ended December&nbsp;31,
2006 despite a $13.1 million, after tax, impairment charge on certain
investment securities.&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; The
impairment charge was the result of the Company&#146;s strategic identification of
certain investment securities that were sold in the second quarter of 2007 with
the proceeds used to reduce Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings.&#160; The sale of the securities facilitated a
re-positioning of the balance sheet to a more neutral position in terms of
interest rate risk and also improved operating ratios.&#160; Net income for the year ended December 31,
2006 included a $8.9 million, net of tax, charge to operations as a result of
the loss of a tax lawsuit with the Internal Revenue Service that was litigated
during the third quarter of 2005 in the Federal District Court in San Antonio,
Texas and that relates to certain leasing transactions previously discussed in
Note 17 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company&#146;s 2006
annual report on Form&nbsp;10K.&#160; Because
of the trial court judgment issued on March&nbsp;31, 2006, the Company took the
$8.9 million charge, net of tax.&#160;
Additionally, net income for the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2007 and December&nbsp;31,
2006 was negatively impacted due to an inverted yield curve and increasing
competition for deposits.&#160; As a result of
the inverted yield curve, the Company&#146;s interest revenue coming from its
securities portfolio has been negatively affected. Because of the issues
surrounding the negative yield curve, the Company has placed greater emphasis
on growing its loan portfolio and potentially improving the volume of interest
income derived from loans.&#160; However, the
greater emphasis on increasing loan balances comes with more risk and takes
time to produce quality loans and does not guarantee the Company will achieve
its goal.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Net income for 2007 and 2006
was negatively affected by the aggressive de novo branching activity of the
Company.&#160; The Company has added 70 new
branches in 2007 and 2006.&#160; The Company
believes that the de novo branching will help in attracting new low cost
deposits, increase non-interest income and also help with the retention of
current customers as more out of market banks expand their branching activities
in Texas.&#160; The Company realizes that
there is a certain amount of time before each branch becomes profitable and as
a result, the de novo branching has negatively impacted earnings in the short
term.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&#147;I&#146;m
pleased with the Company&#146;s earnings for 2007 despite the impairment charges on
the Company&#146;s investment securities.&#160;
During the financial sub-prime crisis, and the general anxiety regarding
liquidity, the Company has maintained its sound credit underwriting standards
and a sound investment strategy.&#160; The
Company is not involved in sub-prime mortgage lending and the Company has no
exposure in its investment portfolio to sub-prime mortgages.&#160; All of the mortgage-backed securities held by
the Company are either fully guaranteed by the U.S. Government or issued by the
Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (&#147;Freddie Mac&#148;) or the Federal National
Mortgage Corporation (&#147;Fannie Mae&#148;), which are government sponsored
entities.&#160; All securities issued by the
three agencies are rated AAA.&#160;
Additionally, the Company has continued to grow its operations and enhance
long term shareholder value through an aggressive de novo branch expansion
knowingly resulting in a decrease in the Company&#146;s earnings compared to prior
years because of the costs associated with the expansion; however, the Company
believes it is necessary to expand its existing footprints to better serve IBC&#146;s
current and future customers as well as expand IBC&#146;s market share,&#148; said Dennis
E. Nixon, President and CEO.</font></p>
