 about the remainder of 2006."

Jones added, "Compass' record financial performance was fueled by a 12 percent increase in revenue as both net interest income and noninterest income posted double-digit gains. Net interest income increased 12 percent from year ago levels driven by solid loan growth and continued low-cost deposit generation. Most of our major fee-based businesses generated solid results as noninterest income increased 10 percent from prior year levels. At the same time, noninterest expense growth was well contained at 10 percent including the impact of newly opened banking offices and our acquisition of TexasBank. Our ability to continue to grow top-line revenue, coupled with good expense management, enabled us to record positive operating leverage Operating Leverage

"Compass continued to experience solid balance sheet growth with average earning assets Earning Assets

 increasing nine percent over prior year levels. More importantly, the growth in earning assets was driven by a 14 percent increase in average loans, offset in part by a six percent decrease in our investment securities portfolio. At the same time, our ability to fund loan demand primarily through internal deposit generation met with continued success. Average deposits increased 16 percent, including a nine percent increase in noninterest bearing deposits," Jones stated.

"While our percent net interest margin increased to 3.70 percent from 3.59 percent a year ago, we recognize the challenges given a flat yield curve Flat Yield Curve

 and expectations that interest rates will continue to rise. Our focus, however, remains on generating high-quality loans and continued growth of low-cost deposits. Accordingly, during the first quarter we registered a $28.7 million increase in net interest income compared to a year ago. Additionally, during the quarter we modestly repositioned our balance sheet by terminating $400 million of favorable fa·vor·a·ble

"Importantly, loan growth did not come at the expense of maintaining sound credit quality standards.
