Webster Reports 2006 Fourth Quarter Earnings

WATERBURY, Conn., Jan. 18 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Webster Financial Corporation , the holding company for Webster Bank, N.A., today announced net income of $37.8 million or $.67 per diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2006, compared to $45.5 million or $.84 per diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2005. Fourth quarter 2006 net income includes net charges totaling $8.4 million ($5.5 million, net of taxes) or $.10 per diluted share from previously announced balance sheet repositioning charges and acquisition costs of NewMil, and gains on the sale of properties and pension plan curtailment. Net income was $133.8 million or $2.47 per diluted share, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006, compared to $185.8 million or $3.43 per diluted share for the twelve months ended December 31, 2005. Net income for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006, includes net charges totaling $58.2 million ($37.8 million, net of taxes) or $.70 per diluted share from the balance sheet repositioning charges, acquisition costs of NewMil, gains on the sale of properties and pension plan curtailment.

Earnings Reconciliation For the Three Months (in thousands except Ended December 31, 2006 per share data) Pre-Tax Tax Effected EPS Reported Net Income $54,895 $37,798 $0.67 Balance Sheet Repositioning Actions: Loss on sale of $250 million of mortgage loans 5,713 3,713 0.07 Loss on sale of AFS securities, net 2,400 1,560 0.03 Total - balance sheet repositioning actions 8,113 5,273 0.10 Other Items: Acquisition costs (NewMil) 2,018 1,312 0.02 Net gain from pension plan curtailment (300) (195) 0.00 Gain on sale of properties (1,400) (910) (0.02) Total Other Items 318 207 0.00 Total - balance sheet repositioning actions and other items 8,431 5,480 0.10 Adjusted net income excluding balance sheet repositioning actions and other items $63,326 $43,278 $0.77

Net pre-tax items of $8.4 million in the fourth quarter include a previously announced $5.7 million loss on the sale of $250 million of residential mortgage loans, a $2.4 million loss related to the previously announced sale of $1.9 billion of mortgage-backed securities classified as available for sale and $2.0 million of previously announced acquisition related expenses. Offsetting these charges were a $300,000 net gain from the recently announced pension plan curtailment and $1.4 million of gains on the sale of properties.

The Company announced that it had elected in the fourth quarter to curtail its defined benefit pension and supplemental executive retirement plans and replace them with an enhanced 401(k) retirement savings plan. This change will be effective as of January 1, 2008. Overall retirement program expenses are expected to remain essentially unchanged in future periods. A net gain of $300,000 from the plan curtailment was recognized in the fourth quarter of 2006.

Additionally, as part of its repositioning plans, the Company had previously announced in the fourth quarter its decision to securitize $1.0 billion in residential loans and to hold these securities for collateral needs. As of December 31, 2006, $370 million of these loans had been securitized, with another $633 million in loans scheduled to be securitized by January 31, 2007.

"In the fourth quarter, Webster began to realize the positive results of our repositioning actions," stated Webster Chairman and Chief Executive Officer James C. Smith. "We are seeing a more reliable and stable earnings stream as the increasingly negative effects that wholesale borrowings have had on prior quarters is no longer a significant factor."

Commercial loans, including commercial real estate loans, and consumer loans were $8.5 billion at December 31, 2006 up, 14 percent from December 31, 2005. Commercial and consumer loans represent 66 percent of total loans at December 31, 2006 compared to 61 percent a year ago. "Webster has shown consistent growth and contributions from our commercial and consumer lending businesses," stated Webster President and Chief Operating Officer William T. Bromage. "We continue to gain momentum in our core businesses even in a very competitive market and a challenging interest rate environment."

The Company opened two new branches, one in Waterford, Connecticut and one in Westerly, Rhode Island in the fourth quarter. In 2006, Webster added six de novo branches and an additional 14 locations in conjunction with the NewMil Bank acquisition. "As we have previously stated, we are following a 'build and buy' strategy to grow our retail presence," stated Mr. Smith. "It is our intention to continue with this strategy in 2007."

Revenues

Total revenue, which consists of net interest income plus total noninterest income, was $180.5 million in the fourth quarter, compared to $129.3 million in the third quarter and $187.9 million a year ago.

Net interest income was $129.2 million in the fourth quarter compared to $122.4 million in the third quarter and $129.7 million a year ago. Continued strong growth in the fourth quarter of 2006 in higher yielding commercial and consumer loans more than offset the increase in the cost of deposits and borrowings as well as reduced contributions from the residential mortgage and securities portfolios.

Webster's net interest margin (annualized tax-equivalent net interest income as a percentage of average earning assets) increased to 3.23 percent compared to 3.01 percent in the third quarter and 3.22 percent a year ago. The net interest margin has been positively impacted by the balance sheet repositioning actions as the proceeds from the sales of securities have been utilized to pay-down high cost borrowings. Slightly offsetting the positive impact of the balance sheet restructuring is continued consumer preference for higher yielding certificates of deposit as well as the impact of the inverted yield curve. The spread between the yield on loans and the cost of deposits decreased to 3.80 percent in the fourth quarter compared to 3.88 percent in the third quarter, primarily from increased deposit costs.

Total non-interest income was $51.4 million in the fourth quarter compared to $6.8 million in the third quarter and $58.2 million a year ago. Non-interest income in the fourth quarter was impacted by charges from losses on sales of securities of $2.4 million and loss on sale of loans of $5.7 million, while in the third quarter non-interest income included a $48.9 million charge for loss on the write-down of the available for sale securities portfolio to fair value. Deposit service fees totaled $25.5 million compared to $25.3 million in the third quarter and $22.9 million a year ago. Insurance revenue was $8.3 million in the quarter compared to $9.8 million in the third quarter and $10.7 million a year ago. The decrease in insurance revenue reflects a reduction in contingent commission income of $1.3 million in the fourth quarter. Loan and loan servicing fees were $9.6 million compared to $7.8 million in the third quarter and $9.3 million a year ago. The increase in loan and loan servicing fees in the quarter reflects higher commercial real estate prepayment fees of $2.4 million. Wealth management fees totaled $7.2 million compared to $6.7 million in the third quarter and $6.2 million a year ago. Other noninterest income, including a $1.4 million gain on the sale of properties, was $3.7 million compared to $1.7 million in the third quarter and $3.5 million a year ago.

Provision For Credit Losses

The provision for credit losses was $3.0 million in the fourth quarter compared to $3.0 million in the third quarter and $2.0 million a year ago. Net loan charge-offs totaled $9.1 million compared to $3.1 million in the third quarter and $1.4 million a year ago. The increase was primarily related to two commercial loans which had been identified and fully reserved prior to the fourth quarter of 2006. The annualized net loan charge-off ratio was 0.27 percent of average loans compared to 0.10 percent in the third quarter and 0.05 percent a year ago. The allowance for credit losses to total loans was 1.20 percent at both December 31, 2006 and September 30, 2006.

Non Interest Expenses

Total noninterest expenses were $122.6 million in the fourth quarter compared to $115.9 million in the third quarter and $119.4 million a year ago. Fourth quarter expenses increased primarily from the acquisition of NewMil Bancorp on October 6, 2006. Expenses include NewMil acquisition costs of $2.0 million and additional costs of approximately $3.4 million for NewMil ongoing operations. Fourth quarter results also include the write-offs of $200,000 in leasehold improvements from the early termination of two leased properties and $440,000 in other lease termination expenses.

Balance Sheet Trends

Total assets were $17.1 billion at December 31, 2006 compared with $17.8 billion a year ago. Total assets have declined due to the balance sheet repositioning actions previously discussed. Total loans were $12.9 billion, an increase of $0.6 billion, or 5 percent, from a year ago while securities totaled $2.0 billion and declined by $1.7 billion, or 47 percent. Deposits were $12.5 billion, an increase of $0.8 billion, or 7 percent, from a year ago with contributions from the branches acquired from the NewMil Bank acquisition, de novo branching and growth in health savings account deposits at HSA Bank.

Certificates of deposit balances grew by 16 percent during 2006 as consumer preference continued for this higher yielding product category. The $1.7 billion reduction in securities compared to a year ago contributed to a $1.7 billion reduction in wholesale borrowings over the past year. Wholesale borrowings declined to 15 percent of total assets at December 31 compared to 25 percent a year ago.

The loan to deposit ratio improved to 104 percent at December 31, 2006 from 106 percent at both September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005. The Company anticipates that this ratio will further improve in the first quarter of 2007 upon the completion of the previously discussed $633 million mortgage securitization.

"We have previously stated that several of our goals were to improve our tangible capital ratio, significantly reduce our reliance on securities and borrowings and to substantially improve the net interest margin and our loan to deposit ratio," stated Webster Chief Financial Officer Jerry Plush. "The positive impact of the balance sheet repositioning actions taken in the fourth quarter is evident as we have made significant progress toward each of these goals. Further improvement in the loan to deposit ratio will be seen upon the completion of the mortgage securitization at the end of this month."

Book value per common share of $33.30 at December 31, 2006 increased from $30.70 a year ago. Tangible book value per share of $19.00 at December 31, 2006 increased from $18.03 last year. The ratio of tangible equity to tangible assets increased to 6.46 percent at December 31, 2006 compared to 5.54 percent a year ago.

Capital

The Company also announced today that, subject to regulatory notices, it intends to call its Capital Trust I and Capital Trust II securities which have a call price of 104.7 percent and 105.0 percent, respectively. The Company will take a pretax charge to income in 2007 of approximately $6.5 million related to the redemption premium and write-off of unamortized issuance costs. The Company is considering the replacement of these legacy trust preferred securities with enhanced trust preferred securities which have greater equity content for rating agency purposes. "Based on the current interest rate environment, we may replace the legacy trust preferred securities at a reduced cost or elect to further boost our capital levels by issuing a higher Dollar amount of enhanced trust preferred securities with no impact to earnings per share in future periods," stated Mr. Plush.

Asset Quality

Nonperforming assets totaled $61.8 million, or 0.48 percent of total loans and other real estate owned, at December 31, 2006 compared to $61.4 million, or 0.47 percent, at September 30 and $66.3 million, or 0.54 percent, a year ago.

The allowance for credit losses, which consists of the allowance for loan losses and the reserve for unfunded commitments, was $155.0 million, or 1.20 percent of total loans, at December 31, 2006 compared to $155.6 million, or 1.27 percent at December 31, 2005. The ratio of the allowance to nonperforming loans was 263 percent at December 31, 2006 compared to 257 percent at December 31, 2005.

We believe that providing certain non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with information useful in understanding our financial performance, our performance trends and financial position.

These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for GAAP basis measures and results and we strongly encourage investors to review our consolidated financial statements in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.
