FirstMerit Reports Fourth Quarter and 2006 Full Year Results
Company to Accelerate Disposition of Problem Assets
Intends to Sell $80.9 Million of Commercial Assets During First
Quarter of 2007
AKRON, Ohio, — January 23, 2007 —FirstMerit Corporation (Nasdaq: FMER) today announced fourth quarter 2006 net income of $6.1 million, or $0.07 per diluted share. This compares with $27.7 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, for the prior-year quarter. For the full year 2006, the Company reported net income of $94.9 million, or $1.18 per diluted share, compared with $ 130.5 million, or $1.56 per share in 2005.
Both fourth quarter and full year 2006 results were affected by the Company’s decision in December 2006 to sell $80.9 million of commercial assets in a transaction to be completed during the first quarter of 2007. FirstMerit intends to sell $73.7 million of commercial loans and $7.2 million of other real estate during the first quarter of 2007. Approximately two-thirds of the assets to be sold are loans originated before June 2003. These assets have been reclassified as “held-for-sale” on the Company’s balance sheet at December 31, 2006. The allowance associated with the loans held for sale is $23.1 million and an additional reserve of $2.2 million for other real estate. Of the $64.2 million of nonperforming assets (0.93% of period-end loans and other real estate) at December 31, 2006, $31.0 million are held-for-sale. These held-for-sale nonperforming assets are expected to be sold before March 31, 2007.
Returns on average common equity (“ROE”) and average assets (“ROA”) for the fourth quarter 2006 were 2.66% and 0.24%, respectively, compared with 11.52% and 1.07% for the prior-year quarter.

“One of my top priorities since joining FirstMerit has been to improve credit quality,” said Paul G. Greig, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of FirstMerit. “We recently completed an internal review of our entire commercial loan portfolio, going above and beyond the type of periodic review normally performed. This analysis was augmented by third party reviews of our larger commercial lending relationships and a number of business banking credits, as well as an evaluation of our lending and credit management processes. These reviews validated many of the improvements that had already been made through a series of credit enhancements implemented beginning in 2003. We were pleased to have confirmed that our portfolio of loans originated since that time is well seasoned and of sound quality. However, this recent assessment also identified areas to further strengthen portfolio management practices and procedures and we are implementing those changes. We believe the actions announced today, once complete, will significantly improve our credit quality and overall asset quality metric comparisons with our peers. A significantly improved credit profile will allow us to focus more closely on executing our business model. We look forward to delivering to our shareholders a higher quality and enhanced stream of earnings and realizing the full earnings potential of our franchise.”
Net interest margin was 3.58% for the fourth quarter of 2006 compared with 3.68% for the third quarter of 2006 and 3.73% for the fourth quarter of 2005. The decrease in net interest margin compared with the third quarter of 2006 resulted from an increase in deposit costs attributed to shifts in the deposit portfolio from lower-cost transaction products to time deposits. The decrease in net interest margin compared with the fourth quarter of 2005 reflected a similar shift in consumer preference for higher-yielding deposit products as well as increased pricing pressure from a rising interest rate environment. For the full year 2006, net interest margin declined to 3.71% compared with 3.73% for 2005, as the Company’s flexibly structured balance sheet provided opportunity to mitigate rising interest rates by shifting a portion of the investment portfolio into higher-yielding loans and paying off higher-cost borrowings.
Net interest income on a fully tax-equivalent (“FTE”) basis was $84.5 million in the fourth quarter 2006 compared with $85.9 million in the third quarter of 2006 and $88.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2005. The decrease in FTE net interest income compared with the third quarter 2006 resulted from net interest margin pressure, partially offset by an increase in average earning assets. The increase in earning assets was driven by loan growth in the commercial portfolio and the Company’s decision to increase the size of the investment portfolio given the higher interest rate environment. The decrease in FTE net interest income compared with the fourth quarter of 2005 resulted from lower net interest margin. FTE net interest income for the full year 2006 was $343.3 million, down from the $351.6 million in 2005. The Company executed a balance sheet restructuring initiative preventing additional margin pressure during the year. Average earning assets decreased $173.4 million during 2006, resulting from a $355.9 million reduction in the average investment portfolio. The majority of run-off in the securities portfolio was used to fund loan growth; average loans increased $187.8 million. The Company also used proceeds from maturing investments to pay down higher-cost borrowings.

Noninterest income net of securities transactions for the fourth quarter of 2006 was $48.3 million, a decrease of $1.0 million or 2.0% from the third quarter of 2006 and an increase of $0.8 million or 1.7% from the fourth quarter of 2005. For the full year 2006, noninterest income net of securities transactions totaled $195.1 million, an increase of $6.6 million or 3.5% from the $188.5 million in the same period of 2005. The increase from the prior year was primarily the result of higher service charges and credit card fees. Other income, net of securities gains, as a percentage of net revenue for the fourth quarter of 2006 was 36.39% compared with 36.50% for third quarter of 2006 and 35.04% for the fourth quarter of 2005. For the full year 2006, other income, net of securities gains, as a percentage of net revenue was 36.24% compared with 34.90% for 2005. Net revenue is defined as net interest income, on a FTE basis, plus other income, less gains from securities sales.
Noninterest expense for the fourth quarter of 2006 was $84.0 million, an increase of $7.0 million or 9.1% from the third quarter of 2006 and an increase of $4.7 million or 5.9% from the fourth quarter of 2005. For the full year 2006, noninterest expenses totaled $328.1 million, an increase of $14.6 million or 4.7% from $313.5 million for the same period of 2005. This increase is the result of higher salaries, wages, pension and employee benefits as well as higher professional services.
Net charge-offs totaled $18.6 million or 1.06% of average portfolio loans in the fourth quarter of 2006 compared with $11.6 million or 0.67% of average portfolio loans in the third quarter 2006 and $18.4 million or 1.09% of average portfolio loans in the fourth quarter of 2005. Additionally the allowance for loan losses was reduced by $23.1 million or 1.32% of average portfolio loans; the amount related to loans classified as held for sale.
Nonperforming assets totaled $64.2 million at December 31, a decrease of $8.3 million or 11.4% compared with September 30, 2006 and a decrease of $8.1 million or 11.2% compared with December 31, 2005. Nonperforming assets at December 31, 2006 and September 30, 2006 include loans held for sale of $26.1 million and $7.1 million, respectively. Nonperforming assets at December 31, 2006 represented 0.93% of period-end loans plus other real estate compared with 1.05% at September 30, 2006 and 1.08% at December 31, 2005.
The provision for loan losses increased to $44.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2006 compared with $12.6 million in the third quarter of 2006 and $16.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2005. For the full year of 2006, the provision for loan losses was $76.1 million, compared with $43.8 million for 2005. The increases are primarily related to the Company’s intention to sell $73.7 million of commercial loans during the first quarter of 2007, as previously discussed.

The allowance for loan losses totaled $91.3 million at December 31, 2006, an increase of $2.6 million and $0.7 million from September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively. At December 31, 2006, the allowance for loan losses was 1.33% of period-end loans compared with 1.28% at September 30, 2006 and 1.36% at December 31, 2005. The allowance for credit losses is the sum of the allowance for loan losses and the reserve for unfunded lending commitments. For comparative purposes the allowance for credit losses was 1.42% at December 31, 2006 compared with 1.37% at September 30, 2006 and 1.45% at December 31, 2005. The allowance for credit losses to nonperforming loans increased to 179.60% at December 31, 2006 compared with 153.94% on September 30, 2006 and 155.36% on December 31, 2005.
FirstMerit’s total assets at December 31, 2006 were $10.3 billion, an increase of $34.6 million or 0.34% compared with September 30, 2006 and an increase of $98.2 million or 0.97% compared with December 31, 2005. The increase from September 30, 2006 was principally due to an increase in commercial loans and in the investment securities portfolio. The increase over December 31, 2005 was due to growth in portfolio loans, primarily in the commercial portfolio of $174.6 million, or 4.96%. The majority of the loan growth over that time period was funded by cash flow from the Company’s maturing investment securities portfolio as part of a strategy to shift the mix of earning assets into higher yield categories.
Total deposits were $7.5 billion at December 31, 2006, an increase of $109.3 million or 1.48% from September 30, 2006 an increase of $265.3 million or 3.67% from December 31, 2005. Core deposits, which exclude all time deposits, totaled $4.5 billion at December 31, 2006, an increase of $102.4 million or 2.32% from September 30, 2006 and a decrease of $135.8 million or 2.92% from December 31, 2005. Compared with September 30, 2006, the increase reflects new pricing initiatives aimed at capturing new transaction account balances. Compared with December 31, 2005, the decrease reflects a shift in customer preference for time deposit accounts with higher yields.
Shareholders’ equity was $846.1 million at December 31, 2006 and the Company’s capital position remains strong as tangible equity to assets was 6.96%. The adoption of the new accounting pronouncement for “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans” reduced other comprehensive income, a component of shareholders’ equity, by $46.4 million. The common dividend per share paid in the fourth quarter 2006 was $0.29. For the full year 2006, the common dividend per share paid was $1.14 compared with $1.10 for the same period of 2005, an increase per share of $0.04, or 3.64%.

NOTES:
(a) — Net interest income on a fully tax-equivalent (“FTE”) basis restates interest on tax-exempt securities and loans as if such interest were subject to federal income tax at the statutory rate.
