GREEN BAY, Wis. -- January 25, 2018 -- Associated Banc-Corp (NYSE: ASB) today reported net income available to common equity ("earnings") of $220 million, or $1.42 per common share for the year ended December 31, 2017. Earnings per common share ("EPS") for the year ended December 31, 2017 included $15 million of expenses related to the recently enacted Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the "Tax Act"). These amounts compare to net income available to common equity of $191 million, or $1.26 per common share for the year ended December 31, 2016. The Company reported earnings of $0.31 per common share for the quarter ended December 31, 2017 ($0.41 per common share excluding expenses related to the Tax Act), compared to $0.34 per common share for the quarter ended December 31, 2016.
“During 2017, Associated continued to grow its customer deposit market share across its footprint. The pending acquisition of Bank Mutual will further enhance our Wisconsin and Minnesota network and we look forward to welcoming Bank Mutual's customers to Associated on February 1," said President and CEO Philip B. Flynn. “Our 2017 financial results reflect strong underlying credit quality, growing fee-based revenue, and the ongoing benefits of our technology and efficiency initiatives. For 2018, we expect to fund over $1 billion in new loans, to improve our net interest margin modestly, and to further reduce our efficiency ratio, driving increasing returns on capital for our shareholders."

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
This press release and related materials may contain references to measures which are not defined in generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Information concerning these non-GAAP financial measures can be found in the financial tables.
On December 22, 2017, the Tax Act was signed into law. The fourth quarter of 2017 and full year 2017 results reflect the estimated impact of the enactment of the Tax Act, which resulted in a $15 million decrease in net income. Net income and earnings per share excluding these related expenses are non-GAAP financial measures. Management believes these measures are meaningful because it reflects adjustments commonly made by management, investors, regulators, and analysts to evaluate the adequacy of earnings per common share and provides a greater understanding of ongoing operations and enhances comparability of results with prior periods. All items are tax effected.

(1) | The ratio tangible common equity to tangible assets excludes goodwill and other intangible assets, net. This financial measure has been included as it is considered to be a critical metric with which to analyze and evaluate financial condition and capital strength. |
| |
(2) | These financial measures have been included as they provide meaningful supplemental information to assess trends in the Corporation’s results of operations. May not match the income statement due to rounding. |
| |
(3) | These capital measurements are used by management, regulators, investors, and analysts to assess, monitor and compare the quality and composition of our capital with the capital of other financial services companies. |
| |
(4) | The efficiency ratio as defined by the Federal Reserve guidance is noninterest expense (which includes the provision for unfunded commitments) divided by the sum of net interest income plus noninterest income, excluding investment securities gains / losses, net. The fully tax-equivalent efficiency ratio is noninterest expense (which includes the provision for unfunded commitments), excluding other intangible amortization, divided by the sum of fully tax-equivalent net interest income plus noninterest income, excluding investment securities gains / losses, net. Management believes the fully tax-equivalent efficiency ratio, which adjusts net interest income for the tax-favored status of certain loans and investment securities, to be the preferred industry measurement as it enhances the comparability of net interest income arising from taxable and tax-exempt sources. |
| |
(5) | Given the passage of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, the Company believes the above required and reported impacts of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 are generally of a non-recurring nature and notably impacted the fourth quarter 2017 results. Management believes this measure is meaningful because it reflects adjustments commonly made by management, investors, regulators, and analysts to evaluate the adequacy of earnings per common share. Associated believes net income available to common equity, excluding expenses related to the Tax Act and earnings per common share, excluding expenses related to the Tax Act provide a greater understanding of ongoing operations and enhances comparability of results with prior periods. All items are tax effected. |
