For the first six months of 2007, net income totaled $154.8 million, compared to $156.8 million for the first six months of 2006.

On a diluted per share basis, net income for the first six months of 2007 was $ .79 compared to $.82 for the first six months of 2006.

Net income and net income per share for the second quarter and first six months of 2007 were reflective of the continuing difficult interest rate environment and its impact on the Company’s net interest income, as well as increased FDIC assessments and certain non-recurring items.

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin

Net interest income for the second quarter totaled $342.8 million, a 7% increase over the $318.9 million recorded a year ago, despite the continuing difficult interest rate environment.  For the first six months of 2007, the Company recorded net interest income of $675.8 million, an 8% increase over the $626.9 million earned in the first six months of 2006.  The increase in net interest income during the quarter and first six months was due to volume increases in interest earning assets resulting from the Company’s continued deposit growth.

The net interest margin for the second quarter of 2007 decreased slightly to 3.22%, compared to 3.27% for the first quarter of 2007, and was down 17 basis points from the 3.39% margin for the second quarter of 2006.  The year over year compression in net interest margin was primarily caused by the continuing difficult interest rate environment.

On a tax equivalent basis, the Company recorded $350.1 million in net interest income in the second quarter of 2007, an increase of $25.1 million or 8% over the second quarter of 2006.  Net interest income on a tax equivalent basis of $690.6 million was earned in the first six months of 2007, an increase of $51.8 million or 8% over the first six months of 2006.

Net Interest Income and Rate/Volume Analysis

As shown below, the increase in net interest income on a tax equivalent basis was due to volume increases in the Company’s earning assets, which were fueled by the Company’s continued deposit growth.  The Company’s continuing ability to grow deposits produces net interest income growth, despite rate compression primarily caused by the continuing difficult interest rate environment.

Non-Interest Income

Non-interest income for the second quarter of 2007 increased to $176.6 million from $143.0 million a year ago, a 24% increase.  Excluding net investment securities gains, non-interest income for the first six months of 2007 increased to $333.1 million from $274.0 million a year ago, a 22% increase.  The increases in non-interest income are primarily attributable to the increase in deposit charges and service fees of 28% for both the second quarter and first six months of 2007.

The growth in non-interest income for the second quarter and the first six months of 2007 is more fully depicted below:

Included in other operating income for the second quarter and first six months of 2007 are $2.5 million and $7.5 million, respectively, of net losses related to the Company’s equity method investments.

Non-Interest Expenses

Non-interest expenses for the second quarter of 2007 were $387.9 million, up 16% from $333.8 million a year ago.  Non-interest expenses for the first six months of 2007 were $750.7 million, up 16% from $649.1 million a year ago.  The increases in non-interest expenses for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2007 were widespread throughout non-interest expense categories, reflecting the Company’s store expansion program. The Company remains focused on controlling costs while continuing to execute its growth model.

Included in non-interest expenses are increased FDIC assessments of $6.5 million and $8.4 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2007, respectively, compared to the same periods a year ago.  Excluding these amounts, the Company’s non-interest expenses would have increased by 14% for both the second quarter and first six months from the prior year.

9



Non-interest expenses were also impacted by non-recurring charges of approximately $2.6 million and $3.8 million during the second quarter and first six months of 2007, respectively.  These non-recurring expenses were primarily legal costs incurred by the Company associated with the ongoing investigation being conducted by the OCC.

Investments

At June 30, 2007, total investments increased to $27.8 billion.  The available for sale and held to maturity portfolios totaled $13.2 billion and $14.6 billion, respectively.

Forward-Looking Statements

The Company may from time to time make written or oral “forward-looking statements”, including statements contained in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, in its reports to shareholders and in other communications by the Company, which are made in good faith by the Company pursuant to the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

These forward-looking statements include statements with respect to the Company’s beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, expectations, anticipations, estimates and intentions, that are subject to significant risks and uncertainties and are subject to change based on various factors (some of which are beyond the Company’s control). The words “may”, “could”, “should”, “would”, believe”, “anticipate”, “estimate”, “expect”, “intend”, “plan” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. The following factors, among others, could cause the Company’s financial performance or other forward looking statements to differ materially from that expressed in such forward-looking statements: the strength of the United States economy in general and the strength of the local economies in which the Company conducts operations; the effects of, and changes in, trade, monetary and fiscal policies, including interest rate policies of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System; inflation; interest rates, market and monetary fluctuations; the timely development of competitive new products and services by the Company and the acceptance of such products and services by customers; the willingness of customers to substitute competitors’ products and services for the Company’s products and services and vice versa; the impact of changes in financial services’ laws and regulations (including laws concerning taxes, banking, securities and insurance); technological changes; future acquisitions; the expense savings and revenue enhancements from acquisitions being less than expected; the growth and profitability of the Company’s non-interest or fee income being less than expected; the ability to maintain the growth and further development of the Company’s community-based retail branching network; unanticipated regulatory or judicial proceedings (including those regulatory and other approvals necessary to open new stores); changes in consumer spending and saving habits; and the success of the Company at managing the risks involved in the foregoing.

The Company cautions that the foregoing list of important factors is not exclusive.  The Company does not undertake to update any forward-looking statement, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time by or on behalf of the Company.

The Company cautions that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the Company’s actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from the future results, performance or achievements the Company has anticipated in such forward-looking statements.  You should note that many factors could affect the Company’s future financial results and could cause those results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the Company’s forward-looking statements contained in this document.
