BANK MUTUAL CORPORATION REPORTS EARNINGS FOR THE FULL YEAR 2007 AND FOURTH QUARTER OF 2007
Milwaukee, Wisconsin
January 17, 2008
Bank Mutual Corporation (NASDAQ—BKMU) reported net earnings of $17.1 million or $0.31 diluted earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2007 as compared to $20.6 million or $0.34 diluted earnings per share during 2006. Earnings for the fourth quarter of 2007 were $4.1 million or $0.08 diluted earnings per share as compared to $4.6 million or $0.08 diluted earnings per share for the fourth quarter of 2006. Earnings decreased for the year ended December 31, 2007 primarily as a result of a decrease in the net interest margin and losses totaling $798,000 (net of income tax) on investments in two mutual funds, which invested in mortgage-related securities, that were determined to be other than temporarily impaired, partially offset by the recovery of previous provisions for loan losses and an increase in income adjustment of $445,000 (net of income tax ) due to a one time adjustment to the amortization of deferred costs as reported to us by a 50% owned subsidiary. Earnings decreased for the fourth quarter of 2007 primarily as the result of the losses relating to mutual funds discussed above, offset by the

income adjustment discussed above. Diluted earnings per share calculations and net income were also affected by Bank Mutual’s ongoing stock repurchase programs.
“Fierce competition for shrinking deposits and loan business continued to pressure our net interest margin during most of 2007; however that pressure abated somewhat during the fourth quarter of 2007. Working in our favor were three components of our strategic plan. We boosted fee income. We managed our expenses with extreme discipline. And, our conservative underwriting standards continued to serve us well. We don’t engage in what is generally considered ‘subprime mortgage lending’ and we don’t intend to in the future.” stated Michael T. Crowley, Jr., Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Bank Mutual Corporation.
The reported results represent an 8.8% decrease in diluted earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2007 as compared to 2006. The reported results in diluted earnings per share for the quarters ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 were the same. Net income for the year ended December 31, 2007 decreased 17.0%, and for the three months ended December 31, 2007 decreased 12.2%, as compared to the same periods in 2006.
One-to-four family mortgage loan originations and purchases were $272.5 million for the year 2007 and $52.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2007 as compared to $365.9 million for the year 2006 and $57.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2006. The decreased originations and purchases of mortgage loans were the result of a decrease in home sales, purchases and construction.
Multi-family and commercial real estate mortgage loan originations were $200.3 million for 2007 and $67.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2007 as compared to $138.8 million for 2006 and $35.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2006. The increased originations were the result of successful marketing efforts and the hiring of additional personnel.
Loan sales were $102.9 million for 2007 as compared to $89.5 million for 2006. For the three months ended December 31, 2007 loan sales were $24.9 million as compared to $21.5 million for the same period in 2006. Loan sales increased in both periods because of increased fixed rate mortgage loan originations that resulted from increased demand caused by steady to declining interest rates and a decrease in demand for adjustable rate mortgages. As a result of the increased loan sales, gains on the sales of loans were $1.5 million for the year 2007 and $378,000 for the fourth quarter of 2007 as compared to $1.1 million and $281,000, respectively, for the comparable periods in 2006.
Consumer loan originations for 2007 were $119.3 million as compared to $158.7 million for 2006 and $24.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2007 as compared to $32.4 million for the comparable period in 2006. The decreased originations for both periods in 2007 were primarily the result of declining demand in the face of slower growth in homeowners’ equity. The decreased originations for the year ended December 31, 2007 were also due to the discontinuance of indirect automobile loan originations through our 50% owned subsidiary, Savings Financial Corporation in the second quarter of 2006.
Commercial business loan originations increased slightly in 2007 to $45.9 million as compared to $42.9 million in 2006, and were at $10.4 million for the fourth quarters of both 2007 and
Page 4
2006. The increase in the year 2007 was primarily the result the continued emphasis by management to develop this portion of our loan portfolio, including the hiring of new personnel.
In total, loan originations and purchases for the year 2007 were $638.0 million as compared to $706.3 million for 2006 and $155.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2007 as compared to $135.3 million for the same period in 2006, with the decrease in the year and increase in the fourth quarter due to the factors discussed above.
Total assets were $3.5 billion at both December 31, 2007 and 2006.
The investment securities portfolio increased by $51.2 million and the mortgage-related securities portfolio increased by $35.1 million during 2007. The increases were primarily a result of purchasing new investment and mortgage-related securities and an increase in the market value of the portfolios partially offset by repayments within the portfolios and the recognition of losses in the amount of $1.2 million related to investments in mutual funds that were deemed to be other than temporarily impaired at December 31, 2007.
Deposits decreased $45.7 million during 2007 to $2.1 billion as compared to $2.2 billion at December 31, 2006. Within the deposit portfolio, certificates of deposit decreased $50.8 million and our core deposits (checking, savings and money market accounts) increased $5.1 million. The decrease in certificates of deposit resulted from our efforts to utilize lower cost funding alternatives as compared to higher cost certificates of deposit. The weighted average cost of deposits increased 0.09% at December 31, 2007 as compared to at December 31, 2006.
Borrowings increased to $912.5 million at December 31, 2007 as compared to $705.0 million at December 31, 2006. The additional borrowings were primarily used for funding our stock repurchase programs, funding the decrease in deposits and purchasing investment and mortgage-related securities.
We have paid 28 consecutive cash dividends since our initial stock offering. Cash dividends paid in 2007 were $0.33 per share as compared to $0.29 per share for 2006. This cash dividend increase of $0.04 per share in 2007 is a 13.8% increase over the cash dividends paid in 2006.
Non-performing loans to total loans at December 31, 2007 decreased to 0.65% as compared to 0.72% at December 31, 2006 and 0.66% at September 30, 2007. This decrease in non-performing loans over the year was primarily the result of one non-performing commercial business loan being paid off in the first quarter of 2007. As a result of this loan being repaid, we recovered a net amount of approximately $929,000 of loan loss provisions in the first quarter of 2007, which was partially offset by additional provisions for loan losses of $51,000 in the second quarter, $388,000 in the third quarter and $218,000 in the fourth quarter of 2007. The additional provisions for loan losses were made in the normal course of business. Our allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2007 was $11.8 million or 91.0% of non-performing loans as compared to $12.6 million or 86.7% of non-performing loans at December 31, 2006.
The net interest margin for the year 2007 decreased to 2.07% as compared to 2.25% for 2006. The decreased net interest margin for the year was primarily the result of the rising cost of
Page 5
deposits and our borrowings, the continued flattening and inversion of the yield curve and the effects of our stock repurchase programs. Specifically, the flattening and inversion of the yield curve reduced our ability to price our loan offerings at interest rates that would allow us to increase the yield on our loan portfolio faster than the increase in our cost of funds, thus compressing our net interest margin. For the fourth quarter of 2007, the net interest margin was 2.09% as compared to 2.06% for the fourth quarter of 2006. The increase in the net interest margin for the fourth quarter was due to an increase in the yield on loans and a decrease in the cost of deposits.
Income taxes were lower in 2007 as compared to 2006 primarily because of a reduction in pretax income.
Book value per share was $8.63 at December 31, 2007. The annualized return on average equity (ROE) for 2007 was 3.57% and 3.63% for the fourth quarter of 2007. The annualized return on average assets (ROA) for 2007 was 0.49% and 0.46% for the fourth quarter of 2007. We repurchased 10,820,448 shares during 2007 at an average price of $11.15 per share. In the fourth quarter of 2007, we repurchased 3,593,500 shares at an average price of $10.42 per share. We regularly review market conditions and costs of funds to determine when share repurchases are appropriate.

Outlook
The following are forward looking statements; see “Cautionary Statements” below. Bank Mutual Corporation’s management has identified a number of factors which may affect the Company’s operations and results in early 2008. They are as follows:
• | | There may be an environment of continued economic slow down. If that is the case, there are a number of effects that Bank Mutual, like other financial institutions, would likely experience. |
| • | | Loan originations could continue to decrease, along with related interest and fee income. |
|
| • | | A slow down in the appreciation of the value of real estate or even a decrease in value may occur. Reduced property prices could negatively affect the volume of home sales, which in turn could affect mortgage loan originations and prepayments. |
|
| • | | A continuation of stabilized or soft real estate values could also affect the value of the collateral securing our mortgage loans. A decrease in value could in turn lead to increased losses on loans in the event of foreclosures, which would affect our provisions for loan losses and profitability. |
Page 6
| • | | A general slow down in the economy or a recession may affect our borrowers’ ability to repay their loan obligations which could lead to increased loan losses or provisions. |
|
| • | | If customer demand for real estate loans decreases, our profits may decrease because our alternative investments, primarily mortgage-related securities, earn less income than real estate loans. |
• | | Bank Mutual will continue to further emphasize consumer loans, and commercial real estate and commercial business loans, all of which can present a higher risk than residential mortgages. Adding personnel to continue this emphasis will increase our costs. However, market conditions and other factors may continue to affect our ability to increase our loan portfolio with these types of loans. |
• | | Bank Mutual opened two new offices in 2007, and anticipates opening up to two new offices in 2008. The addition of new offices increases our occupancy and related personnel costs going forward. |
• | | Like many Wisconsin financial institutions, Bank Mutual has non-Wisconsin subsidiaries that hold and manage investment assets, the income from which has not been subject to Wisconsin tax. The Wisconsin Department of Revenue has instituted an audit program specifically aimed at out-of-state investment subsidiaries. Depending upon the terms and circumstances, an adverse resolution of these matters could result in additional Wisconsin tax obligations for prior periods and/or higher Wisconsin taxes going forward, with a substantial negative impact on our earnings. Although we believe we have reported income and paid Wisconsin taxes in accordance with applicable legal requirements and the Department’s long-standing interpretations of them, our position may not prevail in court or other actions may occur which give rise to liabilities. We also may incur further costs in the future to address and defend these issues. |
