FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
July 17, 2007
WESTAMERICA BANCORPORATION REPORTS $22.4 MILLION
QUARTERLY EARNINGS
San Rafael, CA: Westamerica Bancorporation (NASDAQ: WABC), parent company of
Westamerica Bank, today reported quarterly net income for the second quarter of
2007 of $22.4 million, or $0.74 diluted earnings per share, compared to net
income of $24.5 million, or $0.77 diluted earnings per share for the second
quarter of 2006. For the second quarter of 2007, return on assets (ROA) was 1.92
percent and return on equity (ROE) was 21.9 percent.
Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2007 was $45.9 million or $1.50
diluted earnings per share compared to $50.6 million or $1.58 diluted earnings
per share for the first six months of 2006. For the first six months of 2007,
ROA and ROE were 1.97 percent and 22.5 percent, respectively.
"The competitive environment remains fierce for both loans and deposits, with
continued pressure on net interest margins. While working to stabilize our
margin, we are also focused on increasing our non-interest revenues and
containing our expenses," said Chairman, President and CEO David Payne. "Our
noninterest income increased 4.5 percent in the second quarter 2007 from the
same period in 2006, while our expenses were reduced 6.2 percent from the year
ago quarter. Our return on shareholders' equity at 21.9 percent for the second
quarter 2007 remains relatively high for the banking industry," Payne added.

Net interest income on a taxable equivalent basis was $46.1 million for the
second quarter of 2007, compared to $51.5 million reported for the second
quarter of 2006. The reduced net interest income is attributable to a lower net
interest margin and lower average earning assets. Competition for deposits has
caused funding costs to rise at a faster pace than earning asset yields. Loan
yields have also been impacted by competition. The second quarter 2007 net
interest margin on a taxable equivalent basis was 4.36 percent, compared to 4.41
percent for the prior quarter and 4.58 percent for the second quarter of 2006.
The provision for loan losses was $75 thousand for the second quarter of 2007
unchanged from the prior quarter and down from $150 thousand for the second
quarter of 2006. Net charge-offs for the second quarter of 2007 totaled $1.5
million, or 0.24 percent (annualized) of average loans compared to 0.08
(annualized) and 0.04 percent (annualized) of average loans for the prior
quarter and second quarter of 2006, respectively. Non-performing loans and
repossessed loan collateral at June 30, 2007 totaled $5.8 million, increased
from $5.5 million at March 31, 2007.
Noninterest income for the second quarter of 2007 was $14.7 million, compared to
$15.3 million for the previous quarter and $14.1 million for the second quarter
2006.
The change in noninterest income from the prior quarter includes:
* Increased deposit service charges ($188 thousand)
* Increased merchant card processing fees ($319 thousand)
* $822 thousand gain from company owned life insurance realized in the first
quarter 2007.
The change in noninterest income from the second quarter 2006 includes:
* Increased deposit service charges ($530 thousand)
* Increased merchant card processing fees ($376 thousand)
Page 7
Noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2007 totaled $24.7 million,
unchanged from the prior quarter, but down from $26.3 million for the second
quarter of 2006. The decrease in expenses from the second quarter of 2006 was
primarily due to lower personnel, equipment, professional, telephone, and
intangible amortization costs. The second quarter 2007 efficiency ratio
(expenses divided by revenues) was 40.7 percent, compared to 39.7 percent for
the prior quarter and 40.2 percent for the second quarter of 2006.
Shareholders' equity at June 30, 2007 was $408 million, reduced from $420
million at March 31, 2007. The Company's total regulatory capital ratio was 10.8
percent at June 30, 2007 compared to 11.0 percent at March 31, 2007; both
measurements exceed the "well-capitalized" level of 10 percent under regulatory
requirements.
Westamerica Bancorporation, through its wholly owned subsidiary Westamerica
Bank, operates 87 branches and two trust offices throughout 21 Northern and
Central California counties. At June 30, 2007, the Company's total assets and
total loans outstanding were $4.6 billion and $2.5 billion, respectively.
