Sun Bancorp Reports Net Income Up 15.5% Over Nine Months; Third Quarter Net Income Advances 11.1%

19 October 2005

Sun Bancorp, Inc.
(Nasdaq: SNBC) today reported net income of $5.0 million ($0.26 per share) for
the quarter ended September 30, 2005, up 11.1% over net income of $4.5 million
($0.24 per share) for the third quarter of 2004. Earnings per share data is
adjusted for the 5% common stock dividend declared in March 2005 and paid on
April 20, 2005.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, the Company reported net
income of $14.9 million ($0.77 per share), an increase of 15.5% over $12.9
million ($0.76 per share) in the prior period. Net income for the prior period
includes one-time, after-tax net income of $950,000 ($0.06 per share) from the
facilities sold under the Company's branch rationalization program. Excluding
these items, net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2005,
increased 24.5% over the prior year period.
"Net income growth during the third quarter and over the first nine months
of 2005 was solid as we executed well on the fundamentals of sound banking in
this highly competitive and fragmented New Jersey marketplace," said Thomas A.
Bracken, president and chief executive officer of Sun Bancorp, Inc. and its
wholly owned subsidiary, Sun National Bank.
"On the loan side, our transaction pipeline continues to be strong, as we
believe our cadre of seasoned lenders is giving us a competitive edge. We
expect reported loan growth to be in the range of 6% to 7% for the full year.
Our nine month loan growth of 4.9% reflects a high level of loan prepayments
approximating $80 million. After adjusting for these prepayments, our
underlying growth rate for new loans is actually 9.2%.
"Loan quality trends continue to be positive, and we will not compromise
our underwriting standards in order to generate higher loan volume," said
Bracken. "Pricing competition for both loans and especially deposits remains
very aggressive in our market and should continue to impact our net interest
margin into the fourth quarter and 2006.
"We are working closely with the management of Advantage Bank on our
merger integration planning. Final closing of the previously announced
transaction is targeted for early first quarter 2006," said Bracken. "We
remain confident that the strategic acquisitions and restructuring initiatives
we have put in place to date are creating permanent value throughout the
organization. Our complex efforts over the past several years have been time
consuming and will require ongoing patience. We see the institution as
continually becoming better poised to produce consistent, sustainable
profitability as the dominant banking force in central and southern New
Jersey."
The following is an overview of the key financial highlights for the
quarter:

-- Total assets of $3.105 billion at September 30, 2005, remained level
compared to June 30, 2005 and September 30, 2004.

-- Total loans at September 30, 2005, were $1.962 billion, representing
an increase of $200.1 million, or 11.4%, compared to September 30,
2004.

-- Credit quality trends remain relatively stable. Allowance for loan
losses was $22.3 million, or 1.14% of gross loans, at September 30,
2005, compared to $22.5 million, or 1.17%, at June 30, 2005, and
$21.8 million, or 1.24%, at September 30, 2004. Total non-performing
assets of $13.9 million at September 30, 2005, or 0.71% of total
loans and real estate owned, compared to $13.9 million, or 0.79% at
September 30, 2004. On a linked quarter basis, total non-performing
assets decreased $342,000, or 2.4%.

-- Total deposits were $2.508 billion at September 30, 2005 and
increased $78.2 million, or 3.2%, over September 30, 2004. On a
linked quarter basis, total deposits were essentially flat.

-- The investment portfolio at September 30, 2005, of $803.4 million
remains well structured with a relatively short average life of 1.5
years. This portfolio provides ample liquidity to meet future loan
funding requirements.

-- Net interest income (tax-equivalent basis) for the quarter of $24.6
million increased $459,000, or 1.9%, over the prior year comparable
quarter, and increased $348,000, or 1.4%, over the linked quarter.
Net interest margin for the quarter of 3.45% compares to 3.61% for
the comparable prior year quarter and 3.48% for the linked quarter.

-- Total operating non-interest income of $4.6 million increased
$792,000, or 20.7%, over the comparable prior year period. On a
linked quarter basis, the increase is $329,000, or 7.7%. These
increases are primarily related to the new Small Business
Administration (SBA) lending and commercial loan derivative fee
income initiatives. Service charge income continues to be essentially
flat as a result of increased earnings credit rates on analysis
accounts.

-- Total operating non-interest expenses for the quarter of $21.2
million increased $400,000, or 1.9%, over the comparable prior year
period. On a linked quarter basis, total operating non-interest
expenses decreased 1.0%. The consolidated efficiency ratio for the
current quarter of 72.71% compares to the prior year quarter of
75.33%, and the linked quarter of 73.08%.

"On balance, our performance for the quarter and the first nine months of
2005 was favorable, considering the unprecedented rates we are dealing with
and that we are operating in the most competitive environment I have
encountered in my 35 year career in this market. Our goal is to build
sustainable long-term value for our shareholders. Our patience and restraint
in the current environment will assist in accomplishing that goal," said
Bracken.
