TD BANKNORTH INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2006
(In thousands, except per share data and as noted) (Unaudited)
Note 1 — Basis of Presentation
We, TD Banknorth Inc. (“TD Banknorth”), are a bank/financial holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended, which conducts business through TD Banknorth, National Association (“TD Banknorth, NA” or the “Bank”) and various nonbanking subsidiaries. We are a majority-owned subsidiary of The Toronto-Dominion Bank and successor to Banknorth Group, Inc. The Toronto-Dominion Bank acquired a majority interest in us effective March 1, 2005. The purchase price and related purchase accounting adjustments have been recorded in the financial statements at and for the periods commencing March 1, 2005. This resulted in a new basis of accounting reflecting the fair value of assets and liabilities at March 1, 2005 and for the “successor” periods beginning on March 1, 2005. Information for all dates and “predecessor” periods prior to the acquisition on March 1, 2005 is presented using the historical basis of accounting.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and predominant practices within the banking industry. We have not changed our significant accounting and reporting policies from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005, except for the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) 123(R), “Share-Based Payment.” See Note 2 below. There have been no significant changes in the methods or assumptions used in the accounting policies requiring material estimates and assumptions.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair statement of the unaudited consolidated financial statements have been included herein. The results of operations for the interim periods of 2006 presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or the year ending December 31, 2006. Certain amounts in the prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements.
Note 2 — Accounting Changes
The following is a discussion of new or proposed accounting pronouncements.
Accounting for Share-Based Payment Transactions
Effective January 1, 2006, we adopted the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment,” which addresses the accounting for share-based payment transactions in which an enterprise receives employee services in exchange for (a) equity instruments of the enterprise or (b) liabilities that are based on the fair value of the enterprise’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of such equity instruments. We implemented SFAS No. 123(R) using the modified prospective method of transition. Under this transition method, compensation cost recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2006 includes compensation costs for all share-based payments granted prior to but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of Statement 123. There were no grants of stock options during the three months ended March 31, 2006. Prior to January 1, 2006, we measured compensation cost for those plans using the intrinsic value based method of accounting prescribed by APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”. As a result of implementing SFAS No. 123(R), we recorded $1.9 million of additional compensation expense during the three months ended March 31, 2006. We calculated the common stock equivalents for purposes of diluted earnings per share
7
using the transition method. Prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), we presented all tax benefits of deductions resulting from the exercise of stock options as operating cash flows in the Statement of Cash Flows. SFAS No. 123(R) requires the cash flows resulting from the tax benefits from tax deductions in excess of the compensation cost recognized for those options (excess tax benefits) to be classified as financing cash flows. See Note 5 for more information.
Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets
In March 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Statement No. 156, “Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets” (“FAS 156”). FAS 156 was issued to simplify the accounting for servicing assets and servicing liabilities and reduce the volatility that results from the use of different measurement attributes for servicing rights and the related financial instruments used to hedge risks associated with those servicing rights. FAS 156 clarifies when to separately account for servicing rights, requires separately recognized servicing rights to be initially measured at fair value, and provides the option to subsequently account for those servicing rights at either fair value or under the amortization method previously required under FASB Statement No. 140, “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities.” The effective date of FAS 156 is for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2006. Early adoption is permitted in the period if financial statements have not yet been issued. The implementation of FAS 156 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments
In February 2006, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 155, “Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments” (“FAS 155”). FAS 155 resolves issues addressed in FAS 133 Implementation Issue No. D1, “Application of Statement 133 to Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets.” The effective date of FAS 155 is for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2006. Earlier adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an entity’s fiscal year if financial statements have not yet been issued. Provisions of FAS 155 may be applied to instruments that an entity holds at the date of adoption on an instrument-by-instrument basis. The implementation of FAS 155 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
Accounting Changes and Error Corrections
In June 2005, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections” (“SFAS No. 154”), which requires entities that voluntarily make a change in accounting principle to apply that change retrospectively to prior periods’ financial statements, unless this would be impracticable. SFAS No. 154 supersedes Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 20, “Accounting Changes”, which previously required that most voluntary changes in accounting principle be recognized by including in the current period’s net income the cumulative effect of changing to the new accounting principle. SFAS No. 154 also makes a distinction between “retrospective application” of a change in accounting principle and the “restatement” of financial statements to reflect the correction of an error. SFAS No. 154 applies to accounting changes and error corrections that are made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005.
Other-Than-Temporary Impairments of Certain Investments
On November 3, 2005, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) Nos. FAS 115-1 and FAS 124-1 “The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments”. This FSP addresses the determination as to when an investment is considered impaired, whether that impairment is other than temporary, and the measurement of an impairment loss. The FSP also includes accounting considerations subsequent to the recognition of an other-than-temporary impairment and requires certain disclosure about unrealized losses that have not been recognized as other-than-temporary impairments. The guidance in this FSP must be applied to reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2005. The implementation of this FSP did not have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

The following table presents the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed of Hudson United Bancorp (“Hudson”) at the date of acquisition. We expect that some adjustments of the estimated fair values assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed will be recorded in the periods after the date of acquisition, although such adjustments are not expected to be significant. It is estimated that none of the goodwill will be deductible for income tax purposes.

Note 4 — Discontinued Operations
As a result of the Hudson acquisition on January 31, 2006, we acquired a 100% interest in United Gasco LLC, a 50% interest in Minnesota Methane and a 100% interest in United Cogen Fuel LLC. The 50% interest in Minnesota Methane is held by a 100% owned subsidiary, UC Investments, Inc., which was established by Hudson solely for that purpose. United Gasco, LLC and UC Investments, Inc. and their subsidiaries are engaged in the extraction and conversion of landfill gas into electricity, which is sold to utilities. United Cogen Fuel LLC owns an alternative energy facility located in North Carolina. We have decided to divest our interests in these subsidiaries, and as a result reflect the businesses of these subsidiaries as discontinued operations. In accordance with FAS 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” these investments have been classified as “held for sale” and recorded at estimated fair value less costs to sell.
Gross revenues from these investments totaled $1.9 million and the net loss from discontinued operations amounted to $1.3 million for the period February 1, 2006 to March 31, 2006. At March 31, 2006, total assets and total liabilities of these investments amounted to $36.3 million and $19.6 million, respectively, and were recorded in other assets and other liabilities, respectively.
Note 5 — Stock Compensation Plans
General
Effective January 1, 2006, we adopted the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment” using the modified prospective method of transition. As a result of implementing SFAS No. 123(R), we recorded $1.9 million of compensation expense covering stock options during the three months ended March 31, 2006. Including restricted stock and restricted stock units, total stock-based compensation expense recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 was $7.5 million and $797 thousand, respectively. The total income tax benefit recognized was $2.9 million and $273 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005. At March 31, 2006 there was $61.4 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested stock-based awards. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.3 years.

Stock Options
We have adopted the 2003 Equity Incentive Plan and the 1996 Equity Incentive Plan which have been approved by our shareholders. The 2003 Equity Incentive Plan authorizes grants of options and other stock-based awards covering up to 12,000,000 shares of TD Banknorth common stock to our directors, officers and employees and superseded an outstanding stock option plan for non-employee directors. The 1996 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended, authorizes grants of options and other stock awards covering up to 13,000,000 shares of TD Banknorth common stock to our officers and eligible employees. At March 31, 2006, there were 4,332,070 additional shares available for grant under the 2003 Equity Incentive Plan and 230,168 additional shares available for grant under the 1996 Equity Incentive Plan. There were no stock options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2006 and during the period January 1, 2005 to February 28, 2005.
Our stock-based compensation plans provide for grants of options to purchase shares of common stock at the fair market value of the common stock at the date of grant and which expire ten years from the date of the grant. In addition, the plans provide for grants of shares of common stock that are subject to forfeiture if certain vesting requirements are not met, among other stock-based awards.

Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units
Effective March 1, 2005, we adopted the 2005 Performance Based Restricted Share Unit Plan for certain executives. This plan provides for the grant of restricted stock units tied to the market value of a common share of The Toronto-Dominion Bank. The cash amount payable in respect of the restricted stock units will be adjusted up or down, but not by more than 20%, to reflect the performance of TD Banknorth against an annual operating earnings per share growth target.
Under the 2003 Equity Incentive Plan, we may grant restricted stock units to our directors, officers, and eligible employees. At the grant date we determine whether the restricted stock units will be settled in cash or TD Banknorth common stock and the applicable vesting period, which is generally at the end of three years.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan
We have an Employee Stock Purchase Plan that is available to employees with one year of service, which has been approved by our shareholders. Under the plan, shares of TD Banknorth common stock may be purchased at a discount to fair market value, subject to limitations set forth in the plan. Effective January 1, 2006, the discount rate was decreased to 5% from 15%. Employees have the right to authorize payroll deductions up to 10% of their salary, subject to limitations set forth in the plan.

Note 6 — Securities Purchased under Agreements to Resell
Securities purchased under agreements to resell consist of the purchase of a security with the commitment by us to resell the security to the original seller at a specified price. The difference between purchase price and the predetermined sales price on a resale agreement is recorded as interest income. Our policy is to take possession of the securities purchased. We pledge certain of these securities to collateralize repurchase agreements and other borrowings. At March 31, 2006, we had $3.2 billion of securities purchased under agreements to resell which mature in 2006 and 2007. There were no securities purchased under agreements to resell at December 31, 2005.

The temporary impairment in the investment securities portfolio is predominantly the result of increases in market interest rates after the investment securities were purchased/acquired and not from deterioration in the creditworthiness of the issuers. For securities with unrealized losses, the following information was considered in determining that the impairments are not other-than-temporary. U.S. Government securities are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States and therefore bear nominal credit risk. U.S. Government agencies securities are believed by management to have minimal credit risk as they play a vital role in the nation’s financial markets. Other bonds and notes are generally comprised of corporate securities having a credit rating of at least investment grade by one of the nationally recognized rating agencies. Mortgage-backed securities or collateralized mortgage obligations are either issued by government sponsored agencies or by private issuers with security ratings of at least AA.
At March 31, 2006, U.S. Government obligations and obligations of U.S. Government agencies and corporations included four securities which had unrealized losses; three of which were U.S. Treasury notes and one Government Agency. Market value declines were due to changes in interest rates since the date of purchase.

Note 13 — Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses
In connection with our acquisition of Hudson on January 31, 2006, we acquired commercial business loans for which there was, at acquisition, deterioration of credit quality since origination and for which it was probable, at acquisition, that all contractually required payments would not be collected. These acquired loans are not accounted for using the income recognition model because the timing of cash flows expected to be collected cannot be reasonably estimated. Therefore, no accretable yield was recorded at the date of acquisition. Income is recognized on the cost recovery method in connection with these loans.
The following table summarizes acquired impaired loans at March 31, 2006.
| | | | | | | | | | | | |

| | The Toronto- | | | | |

Carrying value of loans at March 31, 2006 | | | 7,826 | | | | 8,422 | | | | 16,248 | |
In connection with The Toronto-Dominion Bank’s acquisition of us on March 1, 2005, $21.4 million of the allowance for loan and lease losses related to impaired commercial real estate and commercial business loans was transferred out of the allowance for loan and lease losses and applied to reduce the carrying value of the impaired loans.
Note 14 — Balance Sheet Restructuring and Deleveraging
In the quarter ended March 31, 2006, we implemented a balance sheet restructuring program in connection with the acquisition of Hudson. The program consisted of the sale of $2.5 billion of fixed-rate mortgage-backed securities from the available for sale portfolio with the proceeds reinvested in shorter duration assets, primarily securities purchased under agreements to resell. The asset sales will reduce the interest rate risk inherent in these fixed-rate assets related to extension/prepayment risk. In the fourth quarter of 2005, we recorded an impairment loss of $45 million ($29.3 million after-tax) on the $2.5 billion of mortgage-backed securities sold in the first quarter of 2006. In addition, during the quarter ended March 31, 2006, we sold $2.5 billion of securities acquired from Hudson with the proceeds used to repay an equal amount of borrowings.
17
During the first quarter of 2005 and coincident with The Toronto-Dominion Bank transaction, we implemented a balance sheet deleveraging program under which $2.9 billion of available for sale investment securities were sold and the proceeds from these sales were used to prepay borrowings. In addition, single-family residential mortgage loans with a carrying value of $519 million were reclassified to Loans Held for Sale in February 2005 and were sold in May 2005, with the servicing retained by us. These deleveraging transactions resulted in a $50.2 million pre-tax loss on sale of securities, a $7.1 million pre-tax loss to record the single-family residential mortgage loans at the lower of cost or market value and a $6.3 million pre-tax charge for prepayment penalties on borrowings.
In connection with the deleveraging program in the first quarter of 2005, we entered into interest rate swap agreements with an aggregate notional amount of $2.2 billion. These agreements were designed to synthetically convert variable rate loans to fixed-rate assets. The $2.2 billion of swap agreements were terminated in December 2005. The $21 million unrealized loss, net of tax, at the time of termination, which is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income, will be amortized over the remaining 8-year life of the original hedged items as a yield adjustment along with $11 million of related deferred taxes which is also amortized based on the schedule of the hedged items.

We expect to contribute approximately $30.3 million to our pension plans in 2006, none of which is required to satisfy minimum funding requirements.

Note 20 — Subsequent Event
On April 13, 2006, we entered into an agreement to acquire Interchange Financial Services Corporation (“Interchange”) for $480.6 million in an all cash transaction. Interchange, which is headquartered in New Jersey, had $1.6 billion in assets and $1.3 billion in deposits at March 31, 2006. Subject to the terms and conditions of the agreement, each outstanding share of Interchange common stock will be converted into the right to receive $23.00 in cash per share for a total purchase price of approximately $480.6 million. The agreement has been approved by our Board of Directors and Interchange’s Board of Directors.
The cash to be paid in the transaction will be financed at the time of the merger primarily through the sale of 13 million shares of our common stock to our majority shareholder, The Toronto-Dominion Bank, at a price of $31.17 per share for a total of $405.2 million.
The proposed acquisition of Interchange is subject to the approval of the shareholders of Interchange, as well as the receipt of all required regulatory approvals and the satisfaction of other customary conditions, and is expected to close early in the first quarter of 2007 with a systems conversion shortly thereafter.

Item 2.
TD BANKNORTH INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(In thousands, except per share data and as noted)
General
We, TD Banknorth Inc., are a Delaware corporation and a registered bank/financial holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. We are a majority-owned subsidiary of The Toronto-Dominion Bank and successor to Banknorth Group, Inc. At March 31, 2006, we had consolidated assets of $40.9 billion and consolidated shareholders’ equity of $8.2 billion.
Our principal asset is all of the capital stock of TD Banknorth, NA, a national bank which was initially formed as a Maine-chartered savings bank in the mid-19th century. At March 31, 2006, TD Banknorth, NA had 597 banking offices in Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New York and served approximately 1.5 million households and commercial customers. Through TD Banknorth, NA and its subsidiaries, we offer a full range of banking services and products to individuals, businesses and governments throughout our market areas, including commercial banking, consumer banking, investment management, investment planning, private label credit cards for certain retailers and other businesses, insurance premium financing and insurance agency services.
Executive Overview
| • | | Diluted earnings per share were $0.36 per share for the three months ended March 31, 2006 as compared to $0.18 per share for the comparable period in 2005. This increase was primarily attributable to reduced merger and restructuring charges ($0.06 per diluted share) and reduced losses associated with deleveraging and balance sheet restructuring programs ($0.22 per diluted share). |
|
| • | | We completed the acquisition of Hudson United Bancorp (“Hudson”) on January 31, 2006. Acquisitions continue to be an important part of our long-term strategy for growth. |
|
| • | | Merger and restructuring costs, including those associated with the acquisition of a majority of our outstanding shares by The Toronto-Dominion Bank on March 1, 2005, amounted to $0.13 per share in the first quarter of 2005, as compared to $0.07 per share for the first quarter of 2006. |
|
| • | | In the first quarter of 2006, we implemented a balance sheet restructuring program whereby we sold $2.5 billion of our mortgage-backed securities and used the proceeds to purchase shorter-duration investments. These mortgage-backed securities were recorded at fair value at December 31, 2005. In addition, we sold $2.5 billion of securities acquired from Hudson in the first quarter of 2006 and used the proceeds to repay a similar amount of borrowings. These transactions will not have a material effect on our net income in 2006, and will reduce our interest rate sensitivity. In February 2005, we implemented a deleveraging program realizing a $41.6 million after-tax loss. |
|
| • | | In the first quarter of 2006, we incurred a restructuring charge of $10.6 million ($8.9 million after-tax) as a result of a management restructuring which was implemented in connection with our acquisition of Hudson. |
|
| • | | During February 2006, we repurchased 8.5 million shares of our common stock at an average cost of $30.06 per share. |
23
| • | | Our total risk-based capital ratio was 11.07% at March 31, 2006 compared to 11.73% at December 31, 2005. |
|
| • | | Our tangible equity to tangible assets ratio was 4.80% at March 31, 2006 compared to 4.91% at March 31, 2005. |
|
| • | | In April 2006, Standard & Poor’s Services raised its counterparty credit rating on us to “A-1” from “BBB” and the counterparty credit ratings on related entities, including TD Banknorth, NA to “A/A-1” from “BBB+/A-2.” |
Acquisition by The Toronto-Dominion Bank
The Toronto-Dominion Bank acquired its majority interest in us effective March 1, 2005 in a two-step transaction in which Banknorth Group, Inc. first reincorporated from Maine to Delaware by means of a migratory merger into a newly-formed, wholly-owned Delaware subsidiary of Banknorth Group, Inc., and then The Toronto-Dominion Bank acquired its majority interest in us by means of the merger of a newly-formed, wholly-owned subsidiary of The Toronto-Dominion Bank with and into this reincorporated entity, which changed its name to “TD Banknorth Inc.” upon completion of the transaction. In accordance with the guidelines for accounting for business combinations, the transaction met the technical definition of a business combination, and therefore was accounted for as a purchase business combination.
The purchase price and related purchase accounting adjustments resulted in a new basis of accounting reflecting the fair value of our assets and liabilities at March 1, 2005. The most significant adjustments were to increase goodwill by $3.0 billion, identifiable intangible assets by $705 million and shareholders’ equity by $3.4 billion as of March 1, 2005.
Financial information presented herein for all dates and periods prior to completion of The Toronto-Dominion Bank transaction on March 1, 2005 reflects our historical basis of accounting, and financial information presented herein for all dates and periods from and after March 1, 2005 reflect the adjusted values of our assets and liabilities resulting from the application of purchase accounting on that date. To assist in the comparability of our financial results and to make it easier to discuss and understand our results of operations, the financial information presented herein for 2005 combines the “predecessor period” (January 1, 2005 to February 28, 2005) with the “successor period” (March 1, 2005 to March 31, 2005) to present “combined” results for quarter ended March 31, 2005. Because of the effects of accounting for The Toronto-Dominion Bank transaction under the purchase method effective March 1, 2005, information on a combined basis for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 may not be comparable to information for the quarter ended March 31, 2006.
The following table sets forth selected income data on a historical basis for the period January 1, 2005 to February 28, 2005, on a fair value basis for the period March 1, 2005 to March 31, 2005 and on a combined basis for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 and on a successor basis for the quarter ended March 31, 2006.

Acquisitions
Our profitability and market share have been enhanced in recent years through acquisitions. Acquisitions typically involve the payment of a premium over book and market values, and therefore, some dilution of our book value and net income per common share may occur in connection with these transactions. Moreover, acquisitions commonly result in significant one-time charges against earnings, although cost-savings, especially incident to in-market acquisitions, frequently are anticipated, as are revenue enhancements.

During 2005 and the three months ended March 31, 2006, we acquired the two financial institutions listed below. Our financial statements include the results of these bank acquisitions since the date of acquisition.

Net Interest Income
Net interest income is the difference between interest income on earning assets such as loans, leases and securities, and interest expense paid on liabilities such as deposits and borrowings, and continues to be our largest revenue source. Net interest income is affected by the level of interest rates, changes in interest rates and by changes in the amount and composition of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Other factors affecting net interest income include pricing competition in our market areas, product spreads and prepayment activity among various other factors.
Fully-taxable equivalent net interest income for the first quarter of 2006 increased $30.3 million, or 12%, compared to the first quarter of 2005. This increase was impacted by the following items:
| • | | the acquisition of Hudson on January 31, 2006; |
27
| • | | changes in the composition of earning assets resulting from deleveraging and restructuring programs in 2005 and 2006 (loans comprised 79% of average earning assets during the first quarter of 2006 compared to 76% during the first quarter of 2005); |
|
| • | | changes in the composition of interest-bearing liabilities resulting from deleveraging programs (deposits comprised 76% of average interest-bearing liabilities during the first quarter of 2006 compared to 72% during the first quarter of 2005) and |
|
| • | | an increase in the cost of funds due to rising short-term rates and competitive pricing. |
Net interest margin, which represents fully-taxable equivalent net interest income as a percentage of average interest-earning assets, decreased to 3.83% in the first quarter of 2006 from 3.96% in the first quarter of 2005. The 13 basis point decline was due primarily to the rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities increasing more than the yield on loans reflecting the competitive environment for both loans and deposits. While our average earning assets grew $4.1 billion, or 16%, primarily due to the Hudson acquisition on January 31, 2006, our fully-taxable equivalent net interest income increased by only $30.3 million, or 12% reflecting the lower net interest spread between the yield earned on interest-earning assets and the rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities.
Fully-taxable equivalent interest income increased by $113.4 million in the first quarter of 2006 as compared to the first quarter of 2005 as the result of an increase in the weighted average yield on earning assets from 5.38% in 2005 to 6.18% in 2006, an increase of 80 basis points, and the above-mentioned $4.1 billion, or 16%, increase in average earning assets. The increase in the weighted average yield on interest-earning assets was primarily due to Hudson’s higher yielding loan portfolio and to rising short-term interest rates.
Interest expense increased by $83.1 million in the first quarter of 2006 compared to the first quarter of 2005 primarily as a result of competitive pricing for deposits and rising short-term interest rates on the increased average balance of deposits, which was primarily attributable to the acquisition of Hudson. The Federal Reserve Board raised its overnight federal funds rate two times during 2006 and eight times during 2005; each time the rate increased by 25 basis points (or1/4 of 1%). The weighted average cost of deposits increased by 105 basis points and the weighted average cost of borrowings increased by 137 basis points for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 compared to the same period last year. Average interest-bearing deposits increased by $3.8 billion, or 25%, for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 compared to the same period last year, primarily due to acquisitions. Average borrowings increased by $95.7 million in the first quarter of 2006 compared to the first quarter of 2005 due to borrowings assumed from acquired banks, which were offset in part by the balance sheet restructuring and deleveraging programs.
Table 4 sets forth, for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, information regarding (i) the total dollar amount of interest income from interest-earning assets and the resultant average yields; (ii) the total dollar amount of interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities and the resultant average cost; (iii) net interest income; (iv) interest rate spread; and (v) net interest margin. For purposes of the tables and the above discussion, (i) income from interest-earning assets and net interest income is presented on a fully-taxable equivalent basis primarily by adjusting income and yields earned on tax-exempt interest received on loans to qualifying borrowers and on certain of our securities to make them equivalent to income and yields earned on fully-taxable investments, assuming a federal income tax rate of 35%, and (ii) nonaccrual loans have been included in the appropriate average balance loan category, but unpaid interest on nonaccrual loans has not been included for purposes of determining interest income. Average balances are based on average daily balances during the indicated periods.

Provision and Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses
The provision for loan and lease losses is recorded to bring the allowance for loan and lease losses to a level deemed appropriate by management based on factors discussed under “Analysis and Determination of the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses” in the “Risk Management” section. Although we use our best judgment in providing for losses, for the reasons discussed under the “Risk Management” section, there can be no assurance that we will not have to increase the amount of our provision for loan and lease losses in future periods.
We provided $6.9 million and $2.1 million for loan and lease losses in the quarters ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. In addition to the provisions made for on-balance sheet loans and leases, we provided $300 thousand for loss reserves related to off-balance sheet loan commitments in the quarter ended March 31, 2006. This $300 thousand provision is included with other noninterest expense. The increase in the provision for loan and lease losses in the first quarter of 2006 reflects the impact of the acquisition of $5.2 billion in loans from Hudson. The ratio of net charge-offs to average loans and leases was 0.10% (annualized) in the first quarter of 2006 and 0.21% (annualized) in the first quarter 2005. The coverage ratio (ratio of the allowance for credit losses to nonperforming loans) was 362% at March 31, 2006, as compared to 381% at December 31, 2005 and 373% at March 31, 2005. See “Risk Management” below for further information on the provision for loan and lease losses, net charge-offs, nonperforming assets, allowance for credit losses and other factors we consider in assessing the credit quality of our loan and lease portfolio and establishing the allowance for loan and lease losses.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income increased by $92.2 million or 360% during the three months ended March 31, 2006, as compared to the same period in the prior year. The primary reasons for this increase were (i) a $66.1 million aggregate reduction in losses from net securities losses, loans held for sale- lower of cost or market adjustments and change in unrealized loss on derivatives in the three months ended March 31, 2006, as compared to the same period in the prior year, and (ii) approximately $14.3 million of noninterest income from Hudson.
The following table presents noninterest income during the periods indicated.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Deposit services income for the three months ended March 31, 2006 increased $10.3 million, or 37%, compared to the same period last year, primarily due to volume increases from the Hudson acquisition and increases in overdraft fee income resulting from increases in the number of accounts and transactions per account.
Insurance agency commissions for the three months ended March 31, 2006 increased $1.9 million, or 14%, when compared to the same period last year. Strong renewal commissions and commissions from an insurance agency acquired by us in December 2005 were offset in part by lower new business volume due to a competitive marketplace.
Merchant and electronic banking income represents fees and interchange income generated by the use of our ATMs and debit cards issued by us, along with charges to merchants for credit card transactions processed, net of third-party costs directly attributable to handling these transactions. Merchant and electronic banking income in the three months ended March 31, 2006 increased $2.5 million, or 19%, compared to the same period last year. These increases were primarily due to increases in the volume of transactions processed and increased market share from acquisitions.
Wealth management services income for the three months ended March 31, 2006 increased $844 thousand, or 8%, compared to the same period last year. This increase was primarily due to an increase in assets under management, which increased to $12.2 billion at March 31, 2006 from $10.5 billion at March 31, 2005, an increase of $1.7 billion or 16%. Assets under management increased primarily as a result of trust assets acquired from Hudson on January 31, 2006, new business sales and improvements in the stock market in 2005.
Income from bank-owned life insurance (“BOLI”) for the three months ended March 31, 2006 increased by $1.2 million, or 20%, compared to the same period last year. The cash surrender value of our BOLI was $767.0 million at March 31, 2006 compared to $572.8 million at December 31, 2005. The $194.2 million increase was primarily comprised of amounts acquired in the Hudson transaction. Investment in BOLI provides a tax-advantaged means to mitigate increasing employee benefit costs.
32
Investment planning services income consists primarily of commissions earned from sales of third party fixed annuities, variable annuities and mutual funds. Investment planning services income increased $453 thousand, or 10%, when compared to the same period last year primarily due to the Hudson acquisition. Revenue growth was impacted by lower referral volume from the retail branch network in 2005 and reduced demand for variable annuities.
Net securities losses amounted to $90 thousand during the first quarter of 2006 and $50.5 million for the first quarter of 2005, which included a $50.2 million loss recorded in connection with the sale of $2.9 billion of securities pursuant to the deleveraging program implemented by us in the first quarter of 2005. Gains and losses from the sale of securities are subject to market and economic conditions.
Loans held for sale–lower of cost or market adjustment amounted to a $7.5 million charge in the three months ended March 31, 2005. This amount was recorded in connection with the reclassification of $519 million of residential real estate loans in portfolio to loans held for sale as part of the deleveraging program implemented by us in the first quarter of 2005. The sale of these loans was completed in the second quarter of 2005 and we retained the servicing on these loans.
The change in unrealized losses on certain derivatives of $8.2 million in the first quarter of 2005 was due to required changes in accounting for certain interest rate swap agreements in connection with the accounting for The Toronto-Dominion Bank transaction under the purchase method.
Other noninterest income increased $8.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2006 as compared to the same period last year. This increase was primarily due to a $5.5 million increase in loan fee income which was primarily due to $2.8 million of late fees on credit card receivables acquired from Hudson, an increase of $989 thousand in commercial loan late fees (primarily late fees on insurance premium financing loans acquired in the Hudson merger) and an increase of $550 thousand in standby letter of credit fees. Covered call option premiums declined by $2.1 million due to lower volatility in interest rates and a decrease in the investment portfolio due to the balance sheet restructuring in the first quarter 2006 and the deleveraging program in 2005. The covered call option program is managed in conjunction with the fixed-income securities portfolio to provide revenue opportunities in addition to the interest income earned on the securities. Covered call option activity varies from quarter to quarter as interest rates, levels of market volatility and our strategic objectives for the fixed-income securities portfolio change. Venture capital income (write-downs) reflected improved performance of our investments in venture capital funds. Income on restricted stock increased primarily due to additional required investments in Federal Home Loan Bank stock. Miscellaneous other noninterest income includes fees and commissions on our official check program and cash receipts in excess of estimated cash flows on certain acquired impaired loans which were written down to estimated fair value at acquisition; each of these items increased over the amounts recorded in the comparable prior year period.
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense increased by $53.9 million or 24%, in the three months ended March 31, 2006 as compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to (i) a $26.2 million or 228% increase in amortization of identifiable intangible assets, which was primarily due to the use of the purchase method of accounting to account for The Toronto-Dominion Bank’s acquisition of a majority interest in us on March 1, 2005, and (ii) approximately $35.6 million of noninterest expense resulting from the acquisition of Hudson. These increases were offset in part by an $11.4 million or 36% decrease in merger and restructuring costs in the three months ended March 31, 2006, as compared to the same period in the prior year, and a $6.3 million decrease in prepayment penalties on borrowings between the same respective periods.
The following table presents noninterest expense during the periods indicated.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Compensation and employee benefits expense increased $24.3 million, or 24% in the first quarter of 2006 compared to the same period last year. This increase was primarily due to higher salaries and benefit costs resulting from acquisitions and costs related to management retention agreements, expenses associated with restricted stock unit awards granted in 2005 that will be settled in cash and expenses for stock options accounted for under SFAS No. 123R which we adopted on January 1, 2006. We recorded a total of $7.5 million of compensation expense in the first quarter of 2006 related to stock-based compensation plans. See Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on stock-based compensation. The total number of full-time equivalent employees approximated 9,300 at March 31, 2006 compared to 7,300 at March 31, 2005.
Occupancy expense increased $6.4 million, or 36%, in the first quarter of 2006 compared to the same period last year. This increase was primarily due to expenses associated with additional facilities from acquisitions, including depreciation and higher electricity expense due to rate increases.
Equipment expense increased $2.0 million, or 16%, in the first quarter of 2006 compared to the same period last year. This increase was primarily due to increased costs from acquisitions, depreciation on new equipment purchases and equipment maintenance expenses.
Data processing expense increased $4.2 million, or 38%, in the first quarter of 2006 compared to the same period last year. This increase was primarily due to additional volumes from acquisitions. Data processing expenses also increased due to the operation of the Hudson applications until system integration, higher data line charges to support technology upgrades and increased software licensing expense due to higher renewal rates.
34
Advertising and marketing expense increased $1.5 million, or 22%, in the first quarter of 2006 compared to the same period last year. This increase was primarily due to amortization of the costs of the naming rights to the TD Banknorth Garden, which began on July 1, 2005, and related promotional campaigns.
Amortization expense on identifiable intangible assets increased by $26.2 million, or 228%, primarily due to three months of amortization of identifiable intangible assets (primarily core deposit and loan relationship intangibles) recorded in connection with The Toronto-Dominion Bank transaction on March 1, 2005 compared to only one month in the first quarter of 2005. Additionally, we recorded $8.0 million of amortization on identifiable intangible assets in the first quarter of 2006 as a result of the acquisition of Hudson on January 31, 2006. See Note 8 to the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for more information and scheduled amortization.
Merger and restructuring costs decreased $11.4 million, or 36%, in the first quarter of 2006 compared to the same period last year. The first quarter of 2005 included $27.9 million of costs associated with our transaction with The Toronto-Dominion Bank, while the first quarter of 2006 included $10.6 million of costs incurred in connection with a management restructuring and $7.3 million of costs incurred in connection with the acquisition of Hudson. For a tabular analysis of our merger and restructuring costs, see Note 17 to the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.
Other noninterest expense increased $7.0 million for the first quarter of 2006 compared to the first quarter of 2005. The increase was largely due to increased miscellaneous costs, which include travel and entertainment expenses, crime losses and franchise taxes.
Discontinued Operations
Discontinued operations reflect losses from subsidiaries engaged in energy operations which were acquired in the Hudson merger, which we have decided to sell. See Note 4 to the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.
Taxes
The effective tax rate from continuing operations was 33.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2006 compared to 35.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The decrease in the effective tax rate related primarily to reduced nondeductible merger expenses in the first quarter of 2006 compared to the first quarter of 2005. The effective tax rate for the remainder of 2006 is expected to be approximately 34% for continuing operations.
We are subject to examinations by various federal and state governmental tax authorities from time to time regarding tax returns we have filed. Certain state income tax returns filed by us in recent years have recently been examined and assessments have been made by state tax authorities with respect to certain of these returns. We believe that we have substantial defenses to these assessments and intend to appeal them in accordance with administrative procedures. Although we believe that our reserves for existing and potential state tax assessments are appropriate, we estimate that the range of reasonably possible exposure over established reserves for existing and potential state tax assessments is from $0 to $11 million, after federal tax benefits. To the extent we settle these assessments for an amount greater than or less than the related reserves, the excess or deficiency will be recorded as an adjustment to goodwill.
Comprehensive Income
Our comprehensive income amounted to $65.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 as compared to $1.6 million for the same period last year. Comprehensive income differed from our net income as a result of changes in the amount of unrealized gains and losses on our portfolio of securities available for sale and on our derivative contracts that are accounted for as cash flow hedges. For additional information, see the Consolidated Statements of Changes in Shareholders’ Equity and Note 12 to the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.
35
Our available for sale investment portfolio had net unrealized losses of $43.3 million, $20.2 million and $41.3 million at March 31, 2006, December 31, 2005 and March 31, 2005, respectively. Net of applicable income tax effects, these amounts were $28.1 million, $13.2 million and $26.9 million at March 31, 2006, December 31, 2005 and March 31, 2005, respectively. The changes from period to period were primarily due to changes in prevailing interest rates and to the composition of the available for sale investment securities portfolio. The change in fair value of our interest-bearing liabilities, which tends to offset the change in fair value of available for sale securities, is not included in other comprehensive income.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
Our consolidated total assets increased by $8.8 billion, or 27%, from $32.1 billion at December 31, 2005 to $40.9 billion at March 31, 2006 as a result of our acquisition of Hudson on January 31, 2006 which increased assets by $10.3 billion. A balance sheet deleveraging program implemented coincident with the Hudson acquisition reduced assets by $2.5 billion.
Total average assets were $39.0 billion and $30.7 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The increases in total average assets were largely due to acquisitions, which increased average assets by approximately $6.4 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2006, as compared to the same period in 2005, as well as internal growth.
Securities Purchased under Agreements to Resell
Securities purchased under agreements to resell amounted to $3.2 billion at March 31, 2006. These investments, which mature in 2006 and 2007, provide collateral to secure public deposits. These investments were largely purchased with proceeds received from the sale of investment securities pursuant to our balance sheet restructuring program. There were no securities purchased under agreements to resell at December 31, 2005.
Securities
The securities portfolio is utilized for several purposes. It serves as a vehicle to manage interest rate and prepayment risk, generates interest and dividend income from the investment of excess funds, provides liquidity and is used as collateral for public deposits and wholesale funding sources.
The securities portfolio (including securities classified as held to maturity) averaged $5.6 billion during the first quarter of 2006, as compared to $6.1 billion in the first quarter of 2005. The securities portfolio is held in and managed by Northgroup Asset Management Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of TD Banknorth, NA, and consists primarily of mortgage-backed securities. Other securities in the portfolio are collateralized mortgage obligations, which include securitized residential real estate loans held in a REMIC, asset-backed securities and corporate bonds. The majority of securities available for sale were rated AAA or equivalently rated at March 31, 2006. The average yield on securities was 5.06% for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 compared to 4.68% for the quarter ended March 31, 2005. Substantially all of our securities are classified as available for sale and carried at fair value. Securities available for sale had an after-tax unrealized loss of $28.1 million and $13.2 million at March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively. These unrealized losses do not impact net income or regulatory capital but are recorded as adjustments to shareholders’ equity, net of related deferred income taxes. Unrealized gains (losses), net of related deferred income taxes, are a component of “Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)” contained in the unaudited Consolidated Statement of Changes in Shareholders’ Equity.
Loans and Leases
Total loans and leases (including loans held for sale) averaged $23.8 billion during the first quarter of 2006, an increase of $4.0 billion, or 20%, from the first quarter of 2005. Excluding acquisitions and the effects of purchase accounting adjustments, average loans and leases for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 were $665 million, or 3%,
36
higher than the same period in 2005. Average loans and leases as a percent of average earning assets was 79% during the quarter ended March 31, 2006 compared to 76% during the quarter ended March 31, 2005.
Average residential real estate loans (which include mortgage loans held for sale) of $2.9 billion during the first quarter of 2005 decreased $890 million from the average amount of such loans during the first quarter of last year. Excluding acquisitions and the effects of purchase accounting adjustments, average residential loans decreased approximately $990 million, or 25%. The decrease in residential real estate loans was primarily due to lower originations due to the higher rate environment and the sale of $519 million of residential real estate loans in the first quarter of 2005 as part of the deleveraging program. The weighted average yield on residential real estate loans increased from 5.13% to 5.52% during the quarters ended March 31, 2005 and 2006, respectively, primarily due to the repricing of variable rate loans and the origination of new loans at higher rates.
Commercial real estate loans averaged $8.0 billion during the first quarter of 2006, an increase of $1.5 billion, or 24%, from the first quarter of last year. Excluding acquisitions and the effects of purchase accounting adjustments, average commercial real estate loans increased $727 million, or 10%. The weighted average yield on commercial real estate loans during the first quarter of 2006 was 6.70%, as compared to 5.96% in the first quarter of 2005, an increase of 74 basis points. The higher yield reflects the impact of higher prevailing rates mitigated by the competitive pricing environment for new loans.
Commercial business loans and leases averaged $5.7 billion during the first quarter of 2006, an increase of $1.7 billion, or 42%, over the first quarter of 2005. Excluding acquisitions and the effects of purchase accounting adjustments, average commercial business loans and leases increased $234 million, or 4%. This increase was primarily due to the insurance premium financing loans acquired in the Hudson transaction through its subsidiary, Flatiron Credit Company, Inc. (“Flatiron”). The weighted average yield on commercial loans and leases increased to 6.71% in the first quarter of 2006 from 5.65% in the first quarter of 2005. The increase in the yield was primarily due to higher rates on new loans and the upward repricing of variable-rate loans due to increases in short-term interest rates.
Consumer loans and leases averaged $6.9 billion during the first quarter of 2006, an increase of $1.4 billion, or 26%, from the first quarter of 2005. Excluding acquisitions and the effects of purchase accounting adjustments, average consumer loans and leases increased $692 million or 11%. The growth in consumer loans was primarily in home equity loans and indirect auto loans. The weighted average yield on consumer loans and leases increased to 6.19% in the first quarter of 2005 from 5.47% in the first quarter of 2005, resulting from the upward repricing of variable rate loans due to increase in short-term interest rates. For a description of the types of loans and leases in our consumer portfolio and a breakdown of our consumer loans and leases, see “Credit Risk.”
Credit card loans averaged $243 million during the first quarter of 2006. We acquired $394 million of credit card loans as a result of the Hudson acquisition on January 31, 2006. Credit card loans represent credit card receivables originating from the use of private label credit cards issued on behalf of retailers which offer unsecured sales financing to their customers.
Deposits
Total deposits averaged $24.5 billion during the first quarter of 2006, an increase of $4.8 billion, or 24%, from the first quarter of 2005. Excluding acquisitions and the effects of purchase accounting adjustments, average total deposits increased $308 million or 1%, with certificates of deposit reflecting the largest increase by deposit category. The ratio of loans to deposits was 95% at March 31, 2006 and 97% at December 31, 2005.
Average interest-bearing deposits of $19.3 billion during the first quarter of 2006 increased $3.8 billion, or 25%, from the first quarter of 2005. Excluding acquisitions and the effects of purchase accounting adjustments, average certificates of deposits increased by 10%, average savings accounts increased by 8% and average money market and NOW accounts decreased by 4%. Certificates of deposits increased due to higher rates and savings accounts increased due to special product offerings. Management believes the decrease in money market and NOW accounts
37
generally resulted from a consumer shift to alternative investments in an increasing interest rate environment. The average rates paid on all interest-bearing deposits increased by 105 basis points from 1.19% in the first quarter of 2005 to 2.24% in the first quarter of 2006, reflecting the increase in prevailing interest rates and competitive pricing to attract new deposits in certain market areas.
Average noninterest-bearing deposits totaled $5.2 billion during the first quarter of 2006, an increase of $945 million, or 22%, from the first quarter of 2005, primarily due to acquisitions.
From time to time we supplement deposits obtained through internal sources with deposits obtained through national investment banking firms, which, pursuant to agreements with us, solicit funds from their customers for deposit with us. These “brokered deposits” increased from $64.0 million at December 31, 2005 to $270.1 million at March 31, 2006 due to brokered deposits acquired in the Hudson transaction.
Included within the deposit categories above are government banking deposits, which averaged $3.1 billion in the first quarter of 2006 and $1.8 billion in the first quarter of 2005. We added $1.2 billion of government deposits from the Hudson acquisition on January 31, 2006. Government banking deposits include deposits received from state and local governments, school districts, colleges/universities, utility districts, public housing authorities and court systems in our market area. Many of these deposits exceed the FDIC insurance coverage amounts and require us to pledge specific collateral or maintain private insurance.
Other Funding Sources
We use both short-term and long-term borrowings to fund earning asset growth that exceeds deposit growth. Short-term borrowings include FHLB advances, federal funds purchased, securities sold under agreements to repurchase and borrowings from the U. S. Treasury. Short-term borrowings amounted to $3.6 billion and $3.7 billion at March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively, a decrease of $100 million. See Note 10 to the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.
At March 31, 2006, we had a $110 million unsecured line of credit with The Toronto-Dominion Bank. The line is renewable every 364 days and, if used, carries interest at LIBOR plus a maximum of 0.60%. There were no drawdowns on this line during the three months ended March 31, 2006. We have additional borrowing capacity as more fully described under “Liquidity” below.
Long-term debt includes FHLB advances, senior notes, subordinated notes, junior subordinated debentures, capital lease obligations and other debt with original maturities greater than one year. Long-term debt amounted to $1.6 billion at March 31, 2006 and $1.2 billion at December 31, 2005. The increase of $407 million related to the debt assumed with the acquisition of Hudson in the first quarter of 2006.
At March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, long-term FHLB borrowings amounted to $144 million and $152 million, respectively, and were collateralized primarily with first mortgage loans secured by single-family properties. These borrowings had an average cost of 4.24% during the three months ended March 31, 2006 as compared to 4.05% during the three months ended March 31, 2005.
At March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, we had outstanding $528 million and $366 million, respectively, of junior subordinated debentures issued by us to affiliated trusts. For additional information on our junior subordinated debentures, see “Capital” below.
At March 31, 2006, our consolidated borrowings included $698.9 million of subordinated notes of which $673.4 million qualify as Tier 2 capital for regulatory purposes. At December 31, 2005, we had $457 million of subordinated debt. The following table presents information on our subordinated debt as of March 31, 2006.

At March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, we had outstanding $149 million of 5-year senior notes carrying a fixed coupon of 3.75%. These securities, which were issued in April 2003, are rated A3 by Moody’s Investor Services.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We are party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of our customers and to reduce our own exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. These financial instruments include commitments to originate loans, commitments to invest in real estate limited partnerships, standby letters of credit, recourse arrangements on serviced loans, forward commitments to sell loans, foreign currency forward contracts, interest rate swaps and other derivative contracts. The instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The contract or notional amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement we have in particular classes of financial instruments.
Our exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for loan commitments, standby letters of credit and recourse arrangements generally is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. We use the same credit policies in making these commitments and conditional obligations as we do for on-balance sheet instruments. For forward commitments to sell loans, the contract or notional amounts do not represent exposure to credit loss.
The following tables summarize our contractual cash obligations, other commitments and derivative financial instruments at March 31, 2006.

Shareholders’ Equity
Shareholders’ equity amounted to $8.2 billion at March 31, 2006, an increase of $1.7 billion from our $6.5 billion of shareholders’ equity at December 31, 2005. This increase was primarily attributable to the $965 million issuance of common stock for the acquisition of Hudson on January 31, 2006 and the related $942 million sale of common stock to our majority shareholder, The Toronto-Dominion Bank and comprehensive income of $65.5 million. Reductions to capital were the repurchase of 8.5 million shares of our common stock for $255 million in the aggregate (at an average cost of $30.06 per share) and the payment of $50.8 million of cash dividends declared on our common stock during the three months ended March 31, 2006.
Dividends declared in the first quarter of 2006 were $0.22 per share compared to $0.20 per share for the same period last year. On April 25, 2006 we declared a $0.22 per share cash dividend payable on May 15, 2006 to shareholders of record on May 5, 2006.
40
Book value per share amounted to $35.80 and $37.34 at March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively, and tangible book value per share amounted to $7.16 and $8.81 at the same dates, respectively. The decrease in tangible book value per share was due to the Hudson acquisition.
RISK MANAGEMENT
The primary goal of our risk management program is to determine how certain existing or emerging issues in the financial services industry affect the nature and extent of the risks faced by us. Based on a periodic self-evaluation, we determine key issues and develop plans and/or objectives to address risk. Our board of directors and management believe that there are seven applicable “risk categories,” consisting of credit, interest rate, liquidity, transaction, compliance, strategic and reputation risk. Each risk category is viewed from a quantity of risk perspective (high, medium or low) coupled with a quality of risk management perspective. In addition, an aggregate level of risk is assigned as a whole, as well as the direction of risk (stable, increasing or decreasing). Each risk category and the overall risk level is compared to regulatory views on a regular basis and then reported to the board with an accompanying explanation as to the existence of any differences. The risk program includes risk identification, measurement, control and monitoring.
Our board of directors establishes the overall strategic direction for TD Banknorth. It approves our overall risk policies and oversees our overall risk management process. The board has established the Audit Committee and, through TD Banknorth, NA, the Board Risk Committee, to oversee key risks. In addition, there is a management Operational Risk Committee, which is comprised of senior officers in key business lines, which identifies and monitors key operational risks. The Operational Risk Committee reports on a regular basis to the Board Risk Committee.
CREDIT RISK MANAGEMENT
General
The Board Risk Committee monitors our credit risk management. Our strategy for credit risk management includes centralized policies and uniform underwriting criteria for all loans. The strategy also includes diversification on a geographic, industry and customer level, regular credit examinations and quarterly management review of large loans and loans with a deterioration of credit quality. We maintain an internal rating system that provides a mechanism to regularly monitor the credit quality of our loan portfolio. The rating system is intended to identify and measure the credit quality of lending relationships. For consumer loans, we utilize standard credit scoring systems to access consumer credit risks and to price consumer products accordingly. We strive to identify potential problem loans early, take any necessary charge-offs promptly and maintain adequate reserve levels for potential losses.
The following table presents the composition of our loan and lease portfolio at the dates indicated.

Our residential loans are generally secured by single-family homes (one-to-four units) and have a maximum loan-to-value ratio of 80%, unless the excess is protected by mortgage insurance.
Our commercial real estate mortgage loan portfolio consists primarily of loans secured by income-producing commercial real estate (including office and industrial buildings), service industry real estate (including hotels and health care facilities), multi-family (over four units) residential properties and retail trade real estate. These loans generally are secured by properties located in the New England states, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New York.
Our commercial business loans and leases are generally made to small to medium size businesses located within our market areas. These loans are not concentrated in any particular industry, but reflect the broad-based economy of New England, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and New York. Commercial loans consist primarily of loans secured by various equipment, machinery and other corporate assets including real estate, as well as loans to provide working capital to businesses in the form of lines of credit. At March 31, 2006, commercial loans also included $332.5 million of loans to finance insurance premiums acquired in the Hudson acquisition through its Flatiron subsidiary. Through a subsidiary, we also offer direct equipment leases, which amounted to $94.4 million at March 31, 2006. We do not emphasize the purchase of participations in shared national credits. At March 31, 2006, we had $622.5 million of outstanding participations in shared national credits and had an additional $497.2 million of unfunded commitments related to these participations.
The following table presents the geographic distribution of our commercial loans and leases at March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005.

Credit card receivables represent credit card receivables originating from the use of private label credit cards issued on behalf of approximately 100 retailers with locations throughout the United States which offer unsecured sales financing to their customers. We underwrite the resulting credit card receivables on a daily basis. Our relationships with the merchants are generally multi-year relationships. The relationships are developed through marketing efforts or are purchased from other financial institutions. We receive a fee from the merchants when funding a purchase. In addition, we receive interest and late fees from the individual customers that maintain balances on their private label accounts.
Nonperforming Assets
Nonperforming assets consist of nonperforming loans (which do not include accruing loans 90 days or more overdue), other real estate owned and repossessed assets. Total nonperforming assets as a percentage of total assets amounted to 0.22% at March 31, 2006, 0.19% at December 31, 2005 and 0.21% at March 31, 2005. Total nonperforming assets as a percentage of total loans and total other nonperforming assets amounted to 0.35% at March 31, 2006, 0.31% at December 31, 2005 and 0.35% at March 31, 2005. See Table 14 for a summary of nonperforming assets for the last five quarters. On a dollar basis, our nonperforming assets increased to $90.7 million at March 31, 2006 from $61.5 million at December 31, 2005 and amounted to $68.9 million at March 31, 2005. The increase at March 31, 2006 compared to December 31, 2005 was primarily due to nonperforming loans from Hudson.
We continue to focus on asset quality issues and to allocate significant resources to the key asset quality control functions of credit policy and administration and loan review. The collection and workout functions focus on the reduction of nonperforming assets. Despite the ongoing focus on asset quality, there can be no assurance that adverse changes in the real estate markets and economic conditions in our primary market areas will not result in higher nonperforming asset levels in the future and negatively impact our operations through higher provisions for loan losses, net loan charge-offs, decreased accrual of interest income and increased noninterest expenses as a result of the allocation of resources to the collection and workout of nonperforming assets.
The following table presents information regarding our nonperforming assets for the last five quarters.

Residential real estate loans are generally placed on nonaccrual when they become 120 days past due or are in the
process of foreclosure. All closed-end consumer loans 90 days or more past due, unless well secured and in the process of collection, and any equity lines of credit in the process of foreclosure are placed on nonaccrual status. Consumer loans are charged-off upon reaching 120 or 180 days past due depending on the type of loan. Credit card receivables are charged-off upon reaching 180 days past due. We generally place all commercial real estate loans and commercial business loans and leases which are 90 days or more past due on nonaccrual status, unless secured by sufficient cash or other assets immediately convertible to cash. At March 31, 2006, we had $12.9 million of accruing loans which were 90 days or more delinquent, as compared to $6.9 million at December 31, 2005 and $5.0 million at March 31, 2005. The $6.0 million increase from December 31, 2005 was primarily attributable to $6.4 million of credit card receivables acquired from Hudson and a $793 thousand increase in consumer loans, which were offset in part by decreases in accruing commercial and residential loans which were 90 days or more delinquent. We may also place loans which are less than 90 days past due on nonaccrual (and, therefore, nonperforming) status when in our judgment these loans are likely to present future principal and/or interest repayment problems and ultimately would be classified as nonperforming.
Net Charge-offs
Net charge-offs amounted to $6.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2006, as compared to $10.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2005. The decrease was largely due to a $5.5 million decline in charge-offs on commercial real estate mortgages and a $1.7 million increase in recoveries on all loans and leases compared to the first quarter of 2005. Net charge-offs represented 0.10% of average loans and leases outstanding for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 and 0.21% for the quarter ended March 31, 2005.

Potential Problem Loans
In addition to the nonperforming loans discussed under “Credit Risk Management” above, we also have loans that are 30 to 89 days delinquent and still accruing. These loans amounted to $184 million at March 31, 2006 and $153 million at December 31, 2005. These loans and related delinquency trends are considered in the evaluation of the allowance for loan and lease losses and the determination of the provision for loan and lease losses.
Analysis and Determination of the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses
The allowance for loan and lease losses is maintained at a level determined to be adequate by us to absorb future charge-offs of loans and leases deemed uncollectible. This allowance is increased by provisions charged to income and by recoveries on loans previously charged off. For purposes of determining our allowance for loan and lease losses, we specifically evaluate each commercial business and commercial real estate loan which is rated substandard and has a balance in excess of $300 thousand. We evaluate all other loans by loan type on a pooled basis.
Arriving at an appropriate level of allowance for loan and lease losses necessarily involves a high degree of judgment and is determined based on our ongoing evaluation. As discussed under “Critical Accounting Policies,” we believe that the methods used by us in determining the allowance for loan and lease losses constitute a critical accounting policy. Although we utilize judgment in providing for losses, for the reasons discussed under “Critical Accounting Policies” and “Credit Risk Management – Nonperforming Assets,” there can be no assurance that we will not have to increase the amount of our provision for loan and lease losses in future periods.
The allowance for loan and lease losses amounted to $276.3 million at March 31, 2006 and $223.0 million at December 31, 2005. The $53.3 million increase was attributable to $52.6 million of general reserves from Hudson and the provision of $6.9 million for loan and lease losses in the three months ended March 31, 2006. Net charge-offs represented 0.10% of average loans and leases outstanding for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 and 0.21% for the same period in 2005. The ratio of the allowance for credit losses to nonperforming loans and leases was 362% at March 31, 2006 and 381% at December 31, 2005. The ratio of the allowance for credit losses to total portfolio loans and leases was 1.11% at March 31, 2006 compared to 1.15% at December 31, 2005.
Asset-Liability Management
The goal of asset-liability management is the prudent control of market risk, liquidity and capital. Asset-liability management is governed by policies, goals and objectives that are adopted and reviewed by our board of directors and monitored periodically by the Board Risk Committee. The board delegates responsibility for asset-liability management strategies to achieve these goals and objectives to the Asset Liability Management Committee (“ALCO”), which is comprised of members of senior management. Senior management determines the strategic directives that guide the day-to-day management of our activities and interest rate risk exposure. The ALCO also reviews and approves all major risk, liquidity and capital management programs, except for product pricing. Product pricing is reviewed and approved by the Pricing Committee, which is comprised of a subset of ALCO members and other members of senior management.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk of loss to future earnings or long-term value resulting from changes in interest rates and is by far the most significant non-credit risk to which we are exposed. This risk arises directly from our core lending, investing and deposit gathering activities and is predominantly concentrated in our mortgage-related assets, as well as in our non-maturity deposits. Mortgage-related assets typically give borrowers the option to prepay at any time without penalty. Principal cash flows that come from these assets are highly interest rate sensitive. As interest rates fall,
46
borrowers are more likely to pay off their existing mortgages, which results in higher cash flows that we must in turn reinvest. Replacing these higher-rate mortgage assets with lower-rate mortgage assets has the potential to reduce our net interest income unless we can also reduce either our wholesale or retail funding costs. In a low interest rate environment, bank deposits can increase, especially if the stock/bond market risk premium is not sufficient to adequately compensate investors. Consequently, under such circumstances, we can have even more cash to reinvest in low yielding assets. Conversely, rising rates tend to have the opposite effect on both mortgage assets and non-maturity deposits. Higher rates make borrowers less likely to refinance existing debt, resulting in lower cash flows for us to reinvest. And if the market risk premium is sufficiently high, depositors could be enticed to take additional investment risk and move deposits from banks into riskier assets, such as equity securities. This in turn could result in less cash to invest or even require us to use wholesale funding market sources more actively. In the case of higher interest rates, our funding sources could reprice faster than our assets and at higher rates, thereby reducing our interest rate spread and net interest margin. The degree to which future earnings or long-term value is subject to interest rate risk depends on how closely the characteristics of our interest-earning assets match those of our interest-bearing liabilities.
In addition to directly impacting mortgage asset and deposit cash flows, interest rate changes could affect (i) the amount of loans originated and sold by us, (ii) the level and composition of deposits, (iii) the ability of borrowers to repay adjustable or variable rate loans, (iv) the average maturity of loans and investments, (v) the rate of amortization of premiums paid on securities, capitalized mortgage servicing rights, deferred fees and purchase accounting adjustments, (vi) the fair value of our saleable assets, the amount of unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale per SFAS No. 115 and (vii) per SFAS Nos. 133 and 138, the fair value of derivatives carried on our balance sheet, derivative hedge effectiveness testing and the amount of ineffectiveness recognized in earnings.
Assessment and Measurement
The overall objective of interest rate risk management is to deliver consistent net interest income growth and returns on equity over a wide range of possible interest rate environments. To that end, management focuses on (i) key interest rate risk metrics and assessment of TD Banknorth’s exposure to this risk, (ii) a careful review and consideration of modeling assumptions and (iii) asset and liability management strategies that help attain the corporate goals and objectives adopted by our board of directors.
The primary objective of interest rate risk management is to control our estimated exposure to interest rate risk within limits and guidelines established by the ALCO and approved by our Board. These limits and guidelines reflect our tolerance for interest rate risk over a wide range of both short-term and long-term measurements. In addition, we evaluate interest rate risk based on ongoing business risk measures, liquidation or run-off measures of assets and liabilities on our balance sheet and stress test measures. Ongoing measurements and runoff analysis provide management with information concerning day-to-day operations. Stress testing shows the impact of very extreme but lower probability events. The combination of these measures gives management a comprehensive view of possible risks to future earnings and long-term equity value. We attempt to control interest rate risk by identifying, quantifying and, where appropriate, hedging our exposure to these risks.
Net Interest Income Sensitivity
Net interest income is our largest source of revenue. Net interest income sensitivity is our primary short-term measurement used to assess the interest rate risk of our ongoing business. Management believes that net interest income sensitivity gives us the best perspective on how day-to-day decisions affect our interest rate risk profile. To evaluate net interest income sensitivity, we subject estimated net interest income over a 12-month period to various rate movements using a simulation model for various specified interest rate scenarios. Simulations are run monthly and include scenarios where market rates are “shocked” up and down, scenarios where market rates gradually change or “ramp” up and down and scenarios where the slope of the market yield curve changes. Our base simulation assumes that rates do not change for the next 12 months. The sensitivity measurement is calculated as
47
the percentage variance of the net interest income simulations to the base simulation results. Results for the gradual “ramps” are compared to policy guidelines and are disclosed in the interest rate risk results below.
As indicated in Table 16, assuming a gradual 100 and 200 basis point increase in interest rates starting on March 31, 2006, we estimate that our net interest income in the following 12 months would increase by 0.34% and 0.66%, respectively. This is because in the event of an upward shift in rates, the simulated increase in interest income would be more than the simulated increase in interest expense because total adjustable rate interest-earning assets generally will reprice more quickly than total interest-bearing liabilities. In Table 16, the March simulation reflects the settlement of the balance sheet restructuring and includes Hudson’s assets and liabilities. Also as indicated in Table 16, assuming a gradual 100 and 200 basis point decrease in interest rates starting on the same date, we estimate that our net interest income in the following 12 months would decrease by 0.44% and 1.02%, respectively. These results are dependent on material assumptions such as interest rate movements, product pricing, customer behavior and forecasted transactions, all of which involve subjective judgments and may not be consistent with actual results.
The following table sets forth the estimated sensitivity of our net interest income for the 12 months following the dates indicated.
Table 16 — Sensitivity of Net Interest Income
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | 200 Basis Point | | 100 Basis Point | | 100 Basis Point | | 200 Basis Point |
| | Rate Increase | | Rate Increase | | Rate Decrease | | Rate Decrease |
March 31, 2006 | | | 0.66 | % | | | 0.34 | % | | | (0.44 | %) | | | (1.02 | %) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
December 31, 2005 | | | (0.88 | %) | | | (0.41 | %) | | | 0.27 | % | | | 0.26 | % |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Our asset-liability management policy on interest rate risk simulation specifies that if market interest rates were to shift gradually up or down 200 basis points, estimated net interest income for the subsequent 12 months should decline by less than 5%. All interest rate risk measures were within compliance guidelines at March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005.

The most significant factors affecting market risk exposure of net interest income during the three months ended March 31, 2006 were (i) changes in the shape of the U.S. Government securities and interest rate swap yield curves, (ii) slowing prepayment speeds of mortgage assets, (iii) the sale of $2.5 billion of securities acquired from Hudson with proceeds used to repay borrowings and the restructuring of $2.5 billion of our securities into shorter duration reverse repurchase agreements to address collateral needs, and (iv) the acquisition of Hudson.

Derivative Instruments
Purpose and Benefits
Derivative financial instruments are important tools that we use to manage interest rate risk and, to a lesser degree, currency risk (related to the Canadian denominated subordinated debt issuance by TD Banknorth, NA in September 2005) and price risk (related to restricted stock unit awards based on the price of The Toronto-Dominion Bank common stock granted by us in March 2005).
The following table shows our derivative positions at March 31, 2006 scheduled by maturity.

Designated Hedges
In connection with the Hudson acquisition, TD Banknorth assumed $214 million in brokered certificates of deposit and related interest rate swaps which were designated as fair value hedges under SFAS 133.
TD Banknorth, NA issued Can$270 million subordinated debt in September 2005 which is guaranteed by The Toronto-Dominion Bank. Simultaneously, we synthetically converted the underlying subordinated debt into U.S. dollars with a fixed rate of 5.05% for the initial 12-year period by entering into a cross-currency swap agreement with TD Securities.
In December 2005, we entered into an equity total return swap that matures on March 1, 2008. This swap will return to us the change in price on 509,809 common shares of The Toronto-Dominion Bank on the New York Stock Exchange less the cost to carry these shares, which is equal to 3 month LIBOR less The Toronto-Dominion Bank quarterly dividend. This swap hedges the change in value of restricted share units tied to the price of The Toronto-Dominion Bank common shares granted under retention agreements which were entered into with eight of our executive officers in connection with The Toronto-Dominion Bank transaction and a 2005 Performance Based
49
Restricted Share Unit Plan adopted pursuant thereto. Portions of the hedge are de-designated as the restricted stock unit liability is recognized over the vesting period and if earnings per share fails to meet specified targets. Changes in value of the de-designated portions are recognized in income immediately.
We manage the interest rate risk inherent in our mortgage banking operations by entering into forward sales contracts. An increase in market interest rates between the time we commit to terms on a loan and the time we ultimately sell the loan in the secondary market generally will have the effect of reducing the gain (or increasing the loss) we record on the sale. We attempt to mitigate this risk by entering into forward sales commitments in amounts sufficient to cover 70% to 90% of loans held for sale which are currently closed or are anticipated to close.
The following table summarizes the average balances of residential mortgage loans held for sale and related hedge positions during the periods indicated.

Customer-related Positions
Interest rate derivatives, primarily interest-rate swaps, offered to commercial borrowers through our hedging program are designated as speculative under SFAS No. 133. However, we believe that our exposure to commercial customer derivatives is limited because these contracts are simultaneously matched at inception with an identical dealer transaction. The commercial customer hedging program allows us to retain variable-rate commercial loans while allowing the customer to synthetically fix the loan rate by entering into a variable-to-fixed interest rate swap. For the quarter ended March 31, 2006, we recorded a total notional amount of $128.8 million of interest rate swap agreements and $28.2 million of interest rate caps with commercial borrowers and an equal notional amount of dealer transactions.It is anticipated that over time customer interest rate derivatives will reduce the interest rate risk inherent in our longer-term, fixed-rate commercial business and real estate loans. The customer-related positions summarized in Table 17 include both the customer and offsetting dealer transactions.
Foreign Exchange or Market Risk
Our earnings are not directly nor materially impacted by movements in foreign currency rates or commodity prices. Virtually all transactions are denominated in the U.S. dollar. Movements in equity prices may have an indirect but modest impact on earnings by affecting the volume of activity or the amount of fees from investment-related businesses.
We enter into foreign currency forward and option contracts as an accommodation for customers involved in international trade for the future delivery or purchase of foreign currency at a specified price. For these creditworthy customers, we set aside a percentage of the customer’s available line of credit until the foreign currency contract is settled. Foreign exchange and trade services are provided under a private label arrangement with a correspondent bank. Risks arise from the possible inability of the seller and/or our customer to perform and from any resultant exposure to movement in foreign currency exchange rates, limiting our exposure to the replacement value of the contracts rather than the notional principal or contract amounts.

LIQUIDITY
Our Board Risk Committee establishes policies and analyzes and manages liquidity to ensure that adequate funds are available to meet normal operating requirements in addition to unexpected customer demands for funds, such as high levels of deposit withdrawals or loan demand, in a timely and cost-effective manner. The most important factor in the preservation of liquidity is maintaining public confidence that facilitates the retention and growth of a large, stable supply of core deposits and wholesale funds. Ultimately, public confidence is generated through profitable operations, sound credit quality and a strong capital position. Liquidity management is viewed from a long-term and a short-term perspective, as well as from an asset and liability perspective. We monitor liquidity through a regular review of loan and deposit maturities, yield and rate scenarios and loan and deposit forecasts to minimize funding risk. Other factors affecting our ability to meet liquidity needs include variations in the markets served and general economic conditions. We have various funding sources available to us on a parent-only basis as well as through our banking subsidiary, as outlined below.
Parent Company
On a parent-only basis at March 31, 2006, our debt service requirements consisted primarily of $527.5 million junior subordinated debentures issued by us to affiliated trusts and $150 million of 3.75% senior notes due May 1, 2008. The junior subordinated debentures were issued by us or acquired entities to twelve affiliated trusts in connection with their issuance of capital securities to unaffiliated parties. These obligations mature starting in 2027 and had coupon interest rates ranging from 6.45% to 11.30% at March 31, 2006. At the same date, annual debt service payments on these borrowings amounted to approximately $47.8 million.
The principal sources of funds for us to meet parent-only obligations are dividends from our banking subsidiary, which are subject to regulatory limitations, income from investment securities and borrowings, including draws on a $110 million unsecured line of credit with The Toronto-Dominion Bank which is renewable every 364 days and, if used, carries interest at LIBOR plus a maximum of 0.60%. At March 31, 2006, our subsidiary bank had $98.6 million available for dividends that could be paid without prior regulatory approval. In addition, the parent company had $74.9 million in cash or cash equivalents at March 31, 2006.
In 2005, the SEC adopted amendments to its rules with respect to the registration, communications and offering processes under the Securities Act of 1933. The rules, which became effective December 1, 2005, facilitate access to the capital markets by well-established public companies, modernize the existing restrictions on corporate communications during a securities offering and further integrate disclosure under the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The amended rules provide the most flexibility to a “well-known seasoned issuer,” as defined, including the option of automatic effectiveness upon filing of a shelf registration statements and relief under certain communications rules. We are a “well-known seasoned issuer” and filed an automatic shelf registration statement in 2006 under the new rules.
Banking Subsidiary
For TD Banknorth, NA, liquidity represents the ability to fund asset growth, accommodate deposit withdrawals and meet other contractual obligations and commercial commitments. See “Table 9– Contractual Obligations and Commitments” above. Liquidity is measured by the ability to raise cash when needed at a reasonable cost. Many factors affect a bank’s ability to meet its liquidity needs, including variations in the markets served, its asset-liability mix, its reputation and credit standing in the market and general economic conditions.
In addition to traditional retail deposits, TD Banknorth, NA has various other liquidity sources, including proceeds from maturing securities and loans, the sale of securities, asset securitizations and borrowed funds such as FHLB advances, reverse repurchase agreements and brokered deposits.
51
We continually monitor and forecast our liquidity position. There are several interdependent methods used by us for this purpose, including daily review of federal funds positions, monthly review of balance sheet changes, monthly review of liquidity ratios, periodic liquidity forecasts and periodic review of contingent funding plans.
At March 31, 2006, TD Banknorth, NA had in the aggregate $6.5 billion of currently accessible liquidity through collateralized borrowings or security sales. This represented 25% of retail deposits, as compared to a policy minimum of 10% of deposits.
Also at March 31, 2006, TD Banknorth, NA had in the aggregate potentially volatile funds of $4.9 billion. These are funds that might flow out of TD Banknorth, NA over a 90-day period in an adverse environment. Management estimates this figure by applying adverse probabilities to its various credit-sensitive and economically-sensitive funding sources.
At March 31, 2006, the ratio of currently accessible liquidity to potentially volatile funds was 133%, compared to a policy minimum of 100%.
In addition to the liquidity sources discussed above, we believe that our residential and consumer loan portfolios provide a significant amount of contingent liquidity that could be accessed in a reasonable time period through sales or securitizations. We believe we also have significant untapped access to the national brokered deposit market. These sources are contemplated as secondary liquidity in our contingent funding plan. We believe that the level of liquidity is sufficient to meet current and future funding requirements.
CAPITAL
At March 31, 2006, shareholders’ equity amounted to $8.2 billion, or 20.0% of total assets, compared to $6.5 billion, or 20.2% of total assets at December 31, 2005. This $1.7 billion increase was primarily attributable $965.4 million of equity resulting from the issuance of common stock in connection with the acquisition of Hudson on January 31, 2006 and the related sale of our common stock to our majority shareholder, The Toronto-Dominion Bank, for $941.8 million, and to a lesser extent to the $65.5 million of comprehensive income during the first quarter of 2006. These increases were offset in part by $255.5 million of stock repurchases and $50.8 million in dividends to our shareholders during the first quarter of 2006.
We paid a cash dividend of $0.22 per share on our common stock during the first quarter of 2006 compared to $0.20 per share in the first quarter last year.
We repurchased 8.5 million shares of our common stock at an aggregate cost of $255.5 million, or an average of $30.06 per share, during February 2006. We have 2 million shares remaining under our repurchase program.
Capital guidelines issued by the Federal Reserve Board and the OCC, respectively, require us and our banking subsidiary to maintain certain capital ratios, set forth below. At March 31, 2006, TD Banknorth Inc. and TD Banknorth, NA were deemed to be “well capitalized” under the regulations of the Federal Reserve Board and the OCC, respectively, and in compliance with applicable capital requirements.

At March 31, 2006, we had twelve affiliated trusts which have sold capital securities to unaffiliated parties and invested the proceeds from the sale thereof in junior subordinated debentures issued by us or a company acquired by us. All of the proceeds from the issuance of the capital securities and the common securities issued by the trusts are invested in our junior subordinated debentures, which represent the sole assets of the trusts. The capital securities pay cumulative cash distributions quarterly at the same rate as the junior subordinated debentures held by the trusts. We own all of the outstanding common securities of the trusts and effectively are the guarantor of the obligations of the trusts.
The following table provides information on each of our affiliated trusts and the outstanding capital securities of such trusts and the related junior subordinated debentures issued by us at March 31, 2006.

At March 31, 2006, trust preferred securities amounted to 24.1% of TD Banknorth Inc.’s Tier 1 capital. Effective April 11, 2005, the Federal Reserve Board adopted a final regulation which permits bank holding companies to continue to include trust preferred securities in Tier 1 capital, subject to stricter quantitative and qualitative standards. Although this final regulation becomes effective on March 31, 2007, TD Banknorth Inc. is currently in compliance with the stricter quantitative and qualitative standards.
At March 31, 2006, our consolidated borrowings included $698.9 million of subordinated notes due in 2006 through 2022, of which $673.4 million qualify as Tier 2 capital for regulatory purposes. See Table 9 above for more information.
Banking regulators have also established guidelines as to the level of investments in BOLI. These guidelines are expressed in terms of a percentage of Tier 1 capital plus loan loss reserves. Our guideline (which is consistent with regulatory guidelines) is that BOLI should not exceed 25% of our Tier 1 capital plus loan loss reserves, which we monitor monthly. The ratio of BOLI to Tier 1 capital plus loan loss reserves increased to 31.02% at March 31, 2006 as compared to 26.68% at December 31, 2005 due to $186.9 million of BOLI from Hudson.
Basel II was published in 2004 with the intent of closely aligning regulatory capital requirements with underlying risks. The goal is to also improve the consistency of capital requirements internationally and addresses credit risk, market risk and operational risk. In the U.S., Basel II will not be implemented until January 1, 2008. We are currently working with our majority shareholder, The Toronto-Dominion Bank, to become compliant with these new requirements.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Our accounting and reporting policies comply with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and conform to general practices within the banking industry. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions. The financial position and results of operations can be affected by these estimates and assumptions, which are integral to understanding reported results. Management has discussed the development and the selection of critical accounting policies with the Audit Committee of our board of directors. As discussed in our 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K, we have identified the following critical accounting policies: allowance for loan and lease losses, accounting for acquisitions and review of related goodwill and other intangible assets, accounting for pension plans, accrued income taxes and accounting for derivatives and hedging activities. We consider these policies as our critical accounting policies due to the potential impact on our results of operations and the carrying value of certain of our assets based on any changes in judgments and assumptions required to be made by us in the application of these policies.
IMPACT OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
For information on the impact of new accounting standards, see Note 2 to the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements contained herein are not based on historical facts and are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 21A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements, which are based on various assumptions (some of which are beyond our control), may be identified by reference to a future period or periods, or by the use of forward-looking terminology, such as “may,” “will,” “believe,” “expect,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “continue” or similar terms or variations on those terms or the negative of those terms.
54
Forward-looking statements are subject to various factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from these estimates. These factors include, but are not limited to, changes in general economic conditions, interest rates, deposit flows, loan demand, competition, legislation or regulation and accounting principles, policies or guidelines, as well as other economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory, accounting and technological factors affecting our operations. In addition, acquisitions may result in large one-time charges to income, may not produce revenue enhancements or cost savings at levels or within time frames originally anticipated and may result in unforeseen integration difficulties. We do not undertake, and specifically disclaim any obligation, to publicly release the result of any revisions which may be made to any forward-looking statements to reflect the occurrence of events or circumstances after the date of such statements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
The information contained in the section captioned “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Asset-Liability Management” is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Our management evaluated, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations and are operating in an effective manner.
In the ordinary course of business, we routinely enhance our internal controls and procedures for financial reporting by either upgrading our current systems or implementing new systems. Changes have been made and will be made to our internal controls and procedures for financial reporting as a result of these efforts. No change in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15(d)-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Part II — Other Information
Item 1. | | Legal Proceedings |
In the ordinary course of business, TD Banknorth and its subsidiaries are routinely defendants in or parties to a number of pending and threatened legal actions, including actions brought on behalf of various putative classes of claimants. Certain of these actions assert claims for substantial monetary damages against TD Banknorth and its subsidiaries. Based on currently available information, advice of counsel, available insurance coverage and established reserves, management does not believe that the eventual outcome of pending litigation against TD Banknorth and its subsidiaries will have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, liquidity or results of operations of TD Banknorth. In view of the inherent difficulty of predicting such matters, however, there can be no assurance that the outcome of any such action will not have a material adverse effect on TD Banknorth’s consolidated results of operations in any future reporting period.
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the risk factors discussed in Item 1A of Part I in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005, which could
55
materially affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. As of March 31, 2006, there have been no material changes to the risk factors set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.
