NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 — Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Wauwatosa Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) and the Company’s subsidiaries.
The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information, Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X and the instructions to Form 10-Q. The financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals ) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows of the Company for the periods presented.
The accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the Wauwatosa Holdings, Inc. December 31, 2005 Transition Report on Form 10-K. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2006, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2006.
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management of the Company to make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amount of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the allowance for loan losses and deferred income taxes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Note 2 — Reclassifications
Certain items in the prior period consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the March 31, 2006 presentation.

The unrealized losses reported for government agency bonds and mortgage-related securities relate exclusively to debt securities issued by government agencies such as the Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA) and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC). The unrealized loss reported for other securities relates to a mutual fund with mortgage-related investments. Because the decline in fair value is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality, and because the Company has the ability and intent to hold these securities until a market price recovery or maturity, these investments are not considered other-than-temporarily impaired. There are nine and eighteen individual securities at March 31, 2006 that comprise the government agency bonds and mortgage-related securities, respectively, which have been in an unrealized loss position for twelve months or longer.

Note 8 — Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share (EPS) is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding adjusted for the dilutive effect of all potential common shares. At March 31, 2006, 94,927 shares of the Wauwatosa Savings Bank Employee Stock Ownership Plan have been committed to be released to Plan participants and are considered outstanding for both common and dilutive earnings per share. No earnings per share are reflected for periods prior to October 4, 2005, as there were no shares outstanding prior to the reorganization that occurred on that date.
Presented below are the calculations for basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2006.

Note 9 — Recent Accounting Developments
In March 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Standards (SFAS) No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets—an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140.This Statement amends FASB Statement No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities,with respect to the accounting for

separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. SFAS 156 requires an entity to recognize a servicing asset or servicing liability each time it undertakes an obligation to service a financial asset by entering into a servicing contract in any of the following situations: a transfer of the servicer’s financial assets that meets the requirements for sale accounting, a transfer of the servicer’s financial assets to a qualifying special-purpose entity in a guaranteed mortgage securitization in which the transferor retains all of the resulting securities and classifies them as either available-for-sale securities or trading securities in accordance with FASB Statement No. 115,Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securitiesor an acquisition or assumption of an obligation to service a financial asset that does not relate to financial assets of the servicer or its consolidated affiliates. SFAS 156 maintains the requirement set forth under SFAS 140 that all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities are to be initially measured at fair value, if practicable. In regards to subsequent measurement methods for each class of separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities, SFAS 156 amends SFAS 140 to allow for either an amortization method or a fair value measurement method. SFAS 156 is effective as of the beginning of the first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 156 will have an impact on its results of operations, financial position, or liquidity.

Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Information
This report contains or incorporates by reference various forward-looking statements concerning the Company’s prospects that are based on the current expectations and beliefs of management. Forward-looking statements may also be made by the Company from time to time in other reports and documents as well as oral presentations. When used in written documents or oral statements, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “objective” and similar expressions and verbs in the future tense, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. The statements contained herein and such future statements involve or may involve certain assumptions, risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the Company’s control, that could cause the Company’s actual results and performance to differ materially from what is expected. In addition to the assumptions and other factors referenced specifically in connection with such statements, the following factors could impact the business and financial prospects of the Company:
• | inflation and changes in the interest rate environment that reduce our margins or reduce the fair value of financial instruments; | ||
• | legislative or regulatory changes that adversely affect our business; | ||
• | our ability to enter new markets successfully and take advantage of growth opportunities; | ||
• | general economic conditions, either nationally or in our market areas, that are worse than expected; | ||
• | significantly increased competition among depository and other financial institutions; | ||
• | adverse changes in the securities markets; | ||
• | changes in accounting policies and practices, as may be adopted by the bank regulatory agencies and the Financial Accounting Standards Board; and | ||
• | changes in consumer spending, borrowing and savings habits. |
See also the factors referred to in reports filed by Wauwatosa Holdings, Inc. with the Securities and Exchange Commission (particularly those under the caption “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of the Wauwatosa Holdings, Inc. 2005 Transition Report on Form 10-K).
Overview
Our results of operations depend primarily on our net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between the interest income we earn on our interest-earning assets, consisting primarily of residential loans, construction loans and debt and mortgage-related securities and the interest we pay on our interest-bearing liabilities, consisting primarily of time deposits and borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago. Wauwatosa Savings is a mortgage lender with mortgage loans comprising 99.9% of total loans receivable on March 31, 2006. Further, 83.6% of loans receivable are residential mortgage loans and 32.3% of loans receivable are over four-family residential mortgage loans on March 31, 2006. Wauwatosa Savings funds loan production primarily with retail deposits. On March 31, 2006, 88.2% of total deposits were

Table of Contents
time deposits also known as certificates of deposit. Wauwatosa Savings uses borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago as a secondary source of funding. Federal Home Loan Bank advances outstanding on March 31, 2006 totaled $218.2 million or 20.2% of total deposits.
Our results of operations also are affected by our provision for loan losses, noninterest income and noninterest expense. Noninterest income currently consists primarily of service charges and loan brokerage fees. Noninterest expense currently consists primarily of compensation and employee benefits and occupancy expenses. Our results of operations also may be affected significantly by general and local economic and competitive conditions, governmental policies and actions of regulatory authorities.
On February 9, 2006, the Company, through its bank subsidiary, completed the acquisition of Waterstone Mortgage Corporation (“Waterstone”). Waterstone is a mortgage broker with offices in Pewaukee, Madison, Sheboygan and Lake Geneva, Wisconsin and Livonia, Michigan. Waterstone offers real estate mortgage options that are currently not being offered by Wauwatosa Savings Bank. Revenue generated through Waterstone’s mortgage brokerage activities is included in the Consolidated Statements of Income contained in this report under the caption “Loan brokerage fees.”
The following discussion and analysis is presented to assist in the understanding and evaluation of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. It is intended to complement the unaudited consolidated financial statements, footnotes, and supplemental financial data appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q and should be read in conjunction therewith. The detailed discussion focuses on the results of operations for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 and the financial condition as of March 31, 2006 compared to the financial condition as of December 31, 2005.
Critical Accounting Policies
Critical accounting policies are those that involve significant judgments and assumptions by management and that have, or could have, a material impact on our income or the carrying value of our assets.
Allowance for Loan Losses.Wauwatosa Savings establishes valuation allowances on real estate loans considered impaired. A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that Wauwatosa Savings will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. A valuation allowance is established for an amount equal to the impairment when the carrying amount of the loan exceeds the present value of the expected future cash flows, discounted at the loan’s original effective interest rate or the fair value of the underlying collateral.
Wauwatosa Savings also establishes valuation allowances based on an evaluation of the various risk components that are inherent in the credit portfolio. The risk components that are evaluated include past loan loss experience; the level of nonperforming and classified assets; current economic conditions; volume, growth, and composition of the loan portfolio; adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay; the estimated value of any underlying collateral; regulatory guidance; and other relevant factors. The allowance is increased by provisions
-16-
Table of Contents
charged to earnings and recoveries of previously charged-off loans and reduced by charge-offs. The adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is reviewed and approved quarterly by the Wauwatosa Savings board of directors. The allowance reflects management’s best estimate of the amount needed to provide for the probable loss on impaired loans and other inherent losses in the loan portfolio, and is based on a risk model developed and implemented by management and approved by the Wauwatosa Savings board of directors.
Actual results could differ from this estimate, and future additions to the allowance may be necessary based on unforeseen changes in loan quality and economic conditions. In addition, federal regulators periodically review the Wauwatosa Savings allowance for loan losses. Such regulators have the authority to require Wauwatosa Savings to recognize additions to the allowance at the time of their examination.
If the allowance for loan losses is too low we may incur higher provisions for loan losses in the future resulting in lower net income. If an estimate of the allowance for loan losses is too high, we may experience lower provisions for loan losses resulting in higher net income.
Income Taxes.We recognize income taxes under the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that all or some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Wauwatosa Savings has an investment subsidiary operating in Nevada. The income earned by that corporation is not subject to tax in Wisconsin nor has any such tax been paid. An accrued liability has been recorded pursuant to the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Board No. 5 because the Wisconsin Department of Revenue has generally indicated that it may assess franchise taxes on the income of such out of state subsidiaries. The Company has accrued an estimated liability, as of March 31, 2006, of $2.5 million net of the federal deferred tax benefit. The Company will continue to accrue state income tax on certain Nevada subsidiary earnings until such time as this issue is resolved.
Management believes its tax policies and practices are critical because the determination of the tax provision and current and deferred tax assets and liabilities have a material impact on our net income and the carrying value of our assets. We have no plans to change the tax recognition methodology in the future. If our estimated current and deferred tax assets and liabilities and any related estimated valuation allowance are too high or too low, they will affect our future net income in the period that the new information enabling us to better evaluate our estimates of income tax assets and liabilities becomes available.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2006 and 2005
General — Net income totaled $2.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 as compared to $590,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2005. The increase was primarily the result of a decrease in the effective income tax rate to 36.9% for 2006 versus 83.8% for 2005. The 2005 effective tax rate was abnormally high as a result of an accrual of state income taxes recorded in 2005 attributable to an ongoing dispute with the Wisconsin Department of Revenue. Wauwatosa Savings has an investment subsidiary operating in Nevada. The income earned by that corporation is not subject to tax in Wisconsin nor has any such tax been paid. During the quarter ended March 31, 2005, an accrued liability of $2.0 million was established because the Wisconsin Department of Revenue has generally indicated that it may assess franchise taxes on some of the income of such out of state subsidiaries. As of March 31, 2006, the Company has accrued an estimated liability of $2.5 million net of the federal deferred tax benefit of $1.4 million.
Total Interest Income — Total interest income increased $3.5 million, or 18.8%, to $21.9 million in the first quarter of 2006 as compared to $18.4 million for the same period in 2005. Interest income on loans increased $2.9 million, or 16.7%, to $20.2 million in the first quarter of 2006 as compared to $17.3 million for the first quarter of 2005. The increase resulted from an increase in average loan balance of $165.0 million, or 14.2%, to $1.33 billion during the three-month period ended March 31, 2006 from $1.16 billion during the comparable period in 2005. The increase in volume was compounded by a 13 basis point increase in the average yield on loans to 6.18% for the three-month period ended March 31, 2006 from 6.05% for the comparable period in 2005. The remaining increase in overall interest income was primarily due to the increase in the average balance of mortgage-related securities of $32.3 million, or 35.7%, to $122.7 million during the three-month period ended March 31, 2006 from $90.4 million during the comparable period ended in 2005.
Total Interest Expense —Total interest expense increased by $2.8 million, or 31.1%, to $11.8 million in the first quarter of 2006 from $9.0 million in the first quarter of 2005. This increase was the result of an increase in both the rate paid on deposits and borrowings and an increase in average deposits and borrowings outstanding.
Interest expense on deposits increased $1.1 million, or 13.4%, to $9.3 million in the first quarter of 2006 from $8.2 million during the comparable period in 2005 as a result of an increase in the cost of deposits, partially offset by a decrease in average deposits outstanding. The cost of total average deposits increased by 50 basis points to 3.61% for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 verses 3.11% for the quarter ended March 31, 2005. As market interest rates increased (in particular short-term interest rates) and deposit rates offered by competitors increased, it was necessary to increase the interest rates we offered on deposits to retain and attract new deposits, thereby increasing our cost of deposits.
Interest expense on borrowings increased $1.7 million, or 219.7%, to $2.5 million in the first quarter of 2006 from $770,000 during the comparable period in 2005. This increase was the
-18-
Table of Contents
result of increased average borrowings outstanding plus an increase in the related weighted average interest rate. The cost of advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank and of federal funds purchased increased 116 basis points to 4.25% for the period ended March 31, 2006 verses 3.09% for the period ended March 31, 2005.
Net Interest Income — Net interest income increased $657,000, or 7.0%, in the first quarter of 2006 as compared to the same period in 2005. The increase resulted from an increase in net average earning assets of $96.7 million, or 101.5%, to $192.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 from $95.3 million from the comparable period in 2005. The increase in average earning assets was partially offset by a 49 basis point decrease in the net interest rate spread to 2.28% for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 from 2.77% for the comparable period in 2005. The 49 basis point decrease in the net interest rate spread resulted from a 63 basis point increase in the cost of interest bearing liabilities, which was partially offset by a 14 basis point increase in the yield on interest earning assets. Consistent with industry trends, the Company has experienced net interest margin compression as the yield curve continues to flatten.
Provision for Loan Losses — Provision for loan losses decreased $594,000, or 65.9%, to $307,000 for the first quarter of 2006 from $901,000 during the comparable period in 2005. The provision for loan losses recorded during the first quarter of fiscal 2005 was reflective of both an increase in the overall balance of the loan portfolio as well as a significant and sustained increase in classified assets during a number of quarters prior to and including the quarter ended March 31, 2005. The level of classified assets, as well as the level of a number of other key indicators utilized by management during its assessment of the adequacy of the overall allowance for loan losses, have remained consistent during the quarter ended March 31, 2006. Thus the provision for loan losses recorded during the quarter ended March 31, 2006 is generally reflective of the overall growth in the loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses totaled $5.4 million, or 0.40% of total loans at March 31, 2006, compared to $5.3 million, or 0.40% of total loans at December 31, 2005.
Noninterest Income — Total noninterest income increased $611,000, or 105.0%, to $1.2 million in the first quarter of 2006 from $582,000 during the comparable period in 2005. The increase is primarily the result of loan brokerage fees. The $339,000 increase in loan brokerage fees earned during the quarter ended March 31, 2006 was a result of the Company’s purchase of a mortgage brokerage company during the quarter. On February 9, 2006, Wauwatosa Savings acquired Waterstone. The $339,000 of loan brokerage fees reflects fees earned by Waterstone on the loans brokered from the date of acquisition through March 31, 2006. There was no comparable income earned during the first quarter of 2005. The increase in other noninterest income of $141,000, or 198.6%, to $212,000 in the first quarter of 2006 from $71,000 during the comparable period in 2005 was primarily attributable to a $116,000 gain realized on the sale of other real estate owned during the first quarter of 2006. During the comparable period of 2005, gains realized on the sale of real estate owned totaled $16,000.
Noninterest Expense — Total noninterest expense increased $1.2 million, or 22.5%, to $6.7 million in the first quarter of 2006 from $5.4 million during the comparable period in 2005. The increase was primarily the result of increases in compensation, payroll taxes and employee benefits and advertising.

Table of Contents
Compensation, payroll taxes and other employee benefit expense increased $1.1 million, or 36.2%, to $3.9 million in the first quarter of 2006 from $2.8 million during the comparable period in 2005. Wauwatosa Savings salary and payroll taxes increased by $523,000, as a result of a 20% increase in the overall level of full time equivalent staff members. Compensation expense related to the ESOP Plan totaled $236,000 during the first quarter of 2006. There was no comparable expense during the first quarter of 2005, as the ESOP Plan did not exist until the fourth quarter of 2005. Compensation expense related to Waterstone totaled $261,000 during the first quarter of 2006. There was no comparable expense during the first quarter of 2005.
Income Taxes — The effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2006 was 36.9% as compared to 83.8% for the first quarter of 2005. The 2005 effective tax rate was abnormally high as a result of an accrual of state income taxes recorded in 2005 attributable to an ongoing dispute with the Wisconsin Department of Revenue. Wauwatosa Savings has an investment subsidiary operating in Nevada. The income earned by that corporation is not subject to tax in Wisconsin nor has any such tax been paid. During the quarter ended March 31, 2005, an accrued liability of $2.0 million was established because the Wisconsin Department of Revenue has generally indicated that it may assess franchise taxes on some of the income of such out of state subsidiaries. The Company has accrued an estimated liability, as of March 31, 2006, of $2.5 million net of the federal deferred tax benefit of $1.4 million.
Net Income —As a result of the foregoing factors, net income for the three months ended March 31, 2006 increased $2.1 million, or 358.6%, to $2.7 million, from $590,000 during the comparable period in 2005.
Comparison of Financial Condition at March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005
Total Assets — Total assets increased by $46.5 million, or 3.1%, to $1.6 billion at March 31, 2006 from $1.5 billion at December 31, 2005. The increase in total assets resulted primarily from continued growth of the loan portfolio.
Loans Receivable — Loans receivable increased $39.2 million, or 3.0%, to $1.35 billion at March 31, 2006 from $1.3 billion at December 31, 2005, primarily as a result of an increase in residential mortgage loans. Of the total increase in loans receivable, $30.3 million, or 77.3% was attributable to residential mortgage loans, of which $20.8 million was secured by over four-family residential properties and $6.0 million was secured by single family residential properties. An additional $9.5 million of the overall increase in loans receivable was attributable to residential construction loans.

Office Properties and Equipment — Office properties and equipment increased $2.4 million, or 9.6%, to $27.4 million at March 31, 2006 from $25.0 million at December 31, 2005. The increase was attributable to the purchase of land in Franklin and Germantown, Wisconsin, totaling $2.1 million that will be utilized for future expansion of our branch network.
Deposits — Total deposits increased $34.6 million, or 3.3%, to $1.1 billion at March 31, 2006 from $1.0 billion at December 31, 2005. Increases in money market and savings deposits and time deposits, resulting from competitive product pricing, were partially offset by a decrease in demand deposits. Total money market and savings deposits increased $22.5 million, or 67.0%, to $56.1 million at March 31, 2006 from $33.6 million at December 31, 2005. Total time deposits increased $23.4 million, or 2.5%, to $953.1 million at March 31, 2006 from $929.7 million at December 31, 2005. Partially offsetting the overall increase in total deposits, demand deposits decreased $11.3 million, or 13.7%, to $71.0 million at March 31, 2006 from $82.3 million at December 31, 2005.
Borrowings — Total borrowings increased $17.0 million, or 8.4%, to $218.2 million at March 31, 2006 from $201.2 million at December 31, 2005. The increase was necessary to fund the continued growth of the loan portfolio.

Advance Payments by Borrowers for Taxes — Advance payments by borrowers for taxes and insurance increased $8.1 million to $8.3 million at March 31, 2006 from $181,000 at December 31, 2005. The increase was the result of payments received from borrowers’ for their real estate taxes and is seasonally normal, as these payments increase during the course of the calendar year until real estate tax obligations are paid out, primarily in December.
Other Liabilities — Other liabilities decreased $16.0 million, or 49.1%, to $16.6 million at March 31, 2006 from $32.5 million at December 31, 2005. The decrease, which is seasonally normal, was primarily due to a decrease in outstanding checks related to advance payments by borrowers for taxes. The Company receives payments from borrowers for their real estate taxes during the course of the calendar year until real estate obligations are paid out, primarily in December. The outstanding checks remain classified as an other liability until cashed. The balance of these outstanding checks was $236,000 at March 31, 2006 and $16.5 million at December 31, 2005.
Shareholders’ Equity — Shareholders’ equity increased $2.7 million, or 1.2%, to $234.4 million at March 31, 2006 from $231.7 at December 31, 2005. The increase was primarily attributable to net income for the three months ended March 31, 2006, which totaled $2.7 million.

Rate/Volume Analysis
The following table sets forth the effects of changing rates and volumes on our net interest income for the periods indicated. The rate column shows the effects attributable to changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior volume). The volume column shows the effects attributable to changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior rate). The net column represents the sum of the prior columns. For purposes of this table, changes attributable to changes in both rate and volume that cannot be segregated have been allocated proportionately based on the changes due to rate and the changes due to volume.

Total non-performing loans decreased by $7.2 million as of March 31, 2006, as compared to December 31, 2005, primarily as a result of decreased non-performing mortgage loans secured by two- to four-family and over four-family real estate. Non-performing loans secured by two- to four-family properties decreased by $2.0 million as a result of one loan that was brought current during the quarter. Non-performing loans secured by over four-family properties decreased by $3.6 million as a result of two loans that were brought current during the quarter.

The allowance for loan losses has been determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. We are responsible for the timely and periodic determination of the amount of the allowance required. Future provisions for loan losses will continue to be based upon our assessment of the overall loan portfolio and the underlying collateral, trends in non-performing loans, current economic conditions and other relevant factors. To the best of management’s knowledge, all probable losses have been provided for in the allowance for loan losses.
The establishment of the amount of the loan loss allowance inherently involves judgments by management as to the adequacy of the allowance, which ultimately may or may not be correct. Higher rates of loan defaults than anticipated would likely result in a need to increase provisions in future years. Also, as over four-family loan portfolios increase, additional provisions would likely be added to the loan loss allowances as they carry a higher risk of loss. The dollar amount of the typical over four-family loan tends to be larger than our average single family loan and, therefore, any loss that we experience on these loans could be larger than what we have historically experienced on our single-family loans. See “Significant Accounting Policies” above for a discussion on the use of judgment in determining the amount of the allowance for

loan losses.
Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices.The financial statements and accompanying notes of Wauwatosa Holdings have been prepared in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). GAAP generally requires the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without consideration for changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of our operations. Unlike industrial companies, our assets and liabilities are primarily monetary in nature. As a result, changes in market interest rates have a greater impact on performance than do the effects of inflation.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We maintain liquid assets at levels we consider adequate to meet our liquidity needs. Our liquidity ratio averaged 1.7% and 0.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The liquidity ratio is equal to average daily cash and cash equivalents for the period divided by average total assets. We adjust our liquidity levels to fund loan commitments, repay our borrowings, fund deposit outflows and pay real estate taxes on mortgage loans. We also adjust liquidity as appropriate to meet asset and liability management objectives. The operational adequacy of our liquidity position at any point in time is dependent upon the judgment of the Chief Financial Officer as supported by the full Asset/Liability Committee. Liquidity is monitored on a daily, weekly and monthly basis using a variety of measurement tools and indicators. Regulatory liquidity, as required by the Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions, is based on current liquid assets as a percentage of the prior month’s average deposits and short-term borrowings. Minimum primary liquidity is equal to 4.0% of deposits and short-term borrowings and minimum total regulatory liquidity is equal to 8.0% of deposits and short-term borrowings. Wauwatosa Savings’ primary and total regulatory liquidity at March 31, 2006 was 12.9% and 4.6%, respectively.
Our primary sources of liquidity are deposits, amortization and prepayment of loans, maturities of investment securities and other short-term investments, and earnings and funds provided from operations. While scheduled principal repayments on loans are a relatively predictable source of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by market interest rates, economic conditions, and rates offered by our competition. We set the interest rates on our deposits to maintain a desired level of total deposits. In addition, we invest excess funds in short-term interest-earning assets, which provide liquidity to meet lending requirements. Additional sources of liquidity used for the purpose of managing long- and short-term cash flows include $45 million in Federal funds lines of credit with three commercial banks and advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago. Internal policy limits reliance on Federal Home Loan Bank advances to 25% of total deposits.
A portion of our liquidity consists of cash and cash equivalents, which are a product of our operating, investing and financing activities. At March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively, $23.2 million and $18.5 million of our assets were invested in cash and cash equivalents. Our primary sources of cash are principal repayments on loans, proceeds from the calls and maturities of debt
-27-
Table of Contents
and mortgage-related securities, increases in deposit accounts, Federal funds purchased and advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago.
Our cash flows are derived from operating activities, investing activities and financing activities as reported in our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows included in our Consolidated Financial Statements.
During the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, loan originations, net of collected principal, totaled $39.9 million and $32.0 million, respectively, reflecting net growth in our portfolio due to a continued low interest rate environment and strong housing market.
Deposit flows are generally affected by the level of interest rates, the interest rates and products offered by local competitors, and other factors. Deposits increased by $34.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 primarily as the result of competitive pricing offered on money market and certificate accounts.
Liquidity management is both a daily and longer-term function of business management. If we require funds beyond our ability to generate them internally, borrowing agreements exist with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago, which provide an additional source of funds. At March 31, 2006, we had $218.2 million in advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago, of which $36.2 million was due within 12 months, and an additional available borrowing limit of $294.8 million based on collateral requirements of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago. Internal policies limit borrowings to 25% of total deposits, or $270.1 million at March 31, 2006.
At March 31, 2006, we had outstanding commitments to originate loans of $49.8 million, unfunded commitments under construction loans of $85.8 million and unfunded commitments under lines of credit and standby letters of credit of $21.4 million. At March 31, 2006, certificates of deposit scheduled to mature in one year or less totaled $636.2 million. Based on prior experience, management believes that a significant portion of such deposits will remain with us, although there can be no assurance that this will be the case. In the event a significant portion of our deposits are not retained by us, we will have to utilize other funding sources, such as Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago advances in order to maintain our level of assets. However, we cannot assure that such borrowings would be available on attractive terms, or at all, if and when needed. Alternatively, we would reduce our level of liquid assets, such as our cash and cash equivalents and securities available-for-sale in order to meet funding needs. In addition, the cost of such deposits may be significantly higher if market interest rates are higher or there is an increased amount of competition for deposits in our market area at the time of renewal.
Regulatory Capital
The Company, as well as Wauwatosa Savings are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Company’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items, as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company’s capital amounts and
-28-
Table of Contents
classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total and Tier I capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined) and of Tier I capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). Management believes, as of March 31, 2006, that the Company meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.
As of March 31, 2006 the most recent notification from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation categorized the Bank as “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as “well capitalized,” the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier I risk-based and Tier I leverage ratios, as set forth in the table below. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s category.
As a state-chartered savings bank, the Bank is required to meet minimum capital levels established by the state of Wisconsin in addition to federal requirements. For the state of Wisconsin, regulatory capital consists of retained income, paid-in-capital, capital stock equity and other forms of capital considered to be qualifying capital by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Management of Market Risk
General.The majority of our assets and liabilities are monetary in nature. Consequently, our most significant form of market risk is interest rate risk. Our assets, consisting primarily of mortgage loans, have longer maturities than our liabilities, consisting primarily of deposits. As a result, a principal part of our business strategy is to manage interest rate risk and reduce the exposure of our net interest income to changes in market interest rates. Accordingly, Wauwatosa Savings’ Board of Directors has established an Asset/Liability Committee which is responsible for evaluating the interest rate risk inherent in our assets and liabilities, for determining the level of risk that is appropriate given our business strategy, operating environment, capital, liquidity and performance objectives, and for managing this risk consistent with the guidelines approved by the Board of Directors. Management monitors the level of interest rate risk on a regular basis and the Asset/Liability Committee meets at least weekly to review our asset/liability policies and interest rate risk position, which are evaluated quarterly.
We have sought to manage our interest rate risk in order to minimize the exposure of our earnings and capital to changes in interest rates. During the low interest rate environment that had existed in recent years, we implemented the following strategies to manage our interest rate risk: (i) emphasized variable rate loans including variable rate one- to four-family, and commercial loans as well as three to five year commercial balloon loans, (ii) reducing and shortening the expected average life of the investment portfolio, and (iii) whenever possible, lengthening the term structure of our deposit base and our borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago. These measures should serve to reduce the volatility of our net interest income in different interest rate environments.
Income Simulation.Simulation analysis is an estimate of our interest rate risk exposure at a particular point in time. At least quarterly we review the potential effect changes in interest rates could have on the repayment or repricing of rate sensitive assets and funding requirements of rate sensitive liabilities. Our most recent simulation uses projected repricing of assets and liabilities at March 31, 2006 on the basis of contractual maturities, anticipated repayments and scheduled rate adjustments. Prepayment rate assumptions can have a significant impact on interest income simulation results. Because of the large percentage of loans and mortgage-backed securities we hold, rising or falling interest rates may have a significant impact on the actual prepayment speeds of our mortgage-related assets that may in turn affect our interest rate sensitivity position. When interest rates rise, prepayment speeds slow and the average expected lives of our assets would tend to lengthen more than the expected average lives of our liabilities and therefore would most likely result in an increase to our liability sensitive position.

Wauwatosa Savings’ Asset/Liability policy limits projected changes in net average annual interest income to a maximum variance of (10%) to (50%) for various levels of interest rate changes measured over a 24-month period when compared to the flat rate scenario. In addition, projected changes in the capital ratio are limited to (.15%) to (1.00%) for various levels of changes in interest rates when compared to the flat rate scenario. These limits are re-evaluated on a periodic basis and may be modified, as appropriate. Because our balance sheet is liability sensitive, income is projected to decrease proportionately with increases in interest rates. At March 31, 2006, a 300 basis point immediate and instantaneous increase in interest rates had the effect of reducing forecasted net interest income by 17.07% while a 100 basis point decrease in rates had the affect of increasing net interest income by 3.29%. At March 31, 2006, a 300 basis point immediate and instantaneous increase in interest rates had the effect of reducing the forecasted return on assets by 0.27% while a 100 basis point decrease in rates had the effect of increasing the return on assets by 0.05%. At March 31, 2006, a 300 basis point immediate and instantaneous increase in interest rates had the effect of reducing the capital ratio by 0.26% while a 100 basis point decrease in rates had the effect of increasing the capital ratio by 0.05%. While we believe the assumptions used are reasonable, there can be no assurance that assumed prepayment rates will approximate actual future mortgage-backed security and loan repayment activity.
