LEHMAN BROTHERS REPORTS THIRD QUARTER RESULTS
- Reports Net Income of $887 Million and Net Revenues of $4.3 Billion -
NEW YORK– September 18, 2007 – Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. (ticker symbol: LEH) today reported net income of $887 million, or $1.54 per common share (diluted), for the third quarter ended August 31, 2007, representing decreases of 3% and 2%, respectively, from net income of $916 million, or $1.57 per common share (diluted), reported for the third quarter of fiscal 2006. Net income and earnings per common share (diluted) for the second quarter of fiscal 2007 were $1.3 billion and $2.21, respectively.
For the first nine months of fiscal 2007, the Firm reported record net income of $3.3 billion, or $5.71 per common share (diluted), up 10% and 12%, respectively, from net income of $3.0 billion, or $5.09 per common share (diluted) for the first nine months of fiscal 2006. The 2006 results include an after-tax gain of $47 million, or $0.08 per common share (diluted), from the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle associated with the Firm’s adoption of SFAS 123R on December 1, 2005.
Third Quarter Business Highlights
· Posted record nine months net revenues, net income and earnings per common share (diluted)
· Non-U.S. net revenues represented 53% of the Firm’s net revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 2007
· Reported record Investment Management net revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 2007, and record assets under management of $275 billion

Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Richard S. Fuld, Jr. said, “Despite challenging conditions in the markets, our results once again demonstrate the diversity and financial strength of the Lehman Brothers franchise, as well as our ability to perform across cycles. For the quarter, we reported record net revenues in Investment Management, and our second highest net revenues in both Investment Banking and Equities Capital Markets. In addition, more than half of our net revenues for the quarter came from outside the U.S. We remain focused on delivering significant long term value for our clients and shareholders.”
Net revenues (total revenues less interest expense) for the third quarter of fiscal 2007 were $4.3 billion, an increase of 3% from $4.2 billion reported in the third quarter of fiscal 2006 and a decrease of 22% from the record $5.5 billion reported in the second quarter of fiscal 2007. For the first nine months of fiscal 2007, the Firm reported record net revenues of $14.9 billion, an increase of 14% from $13.1 billion for the first nine months of fiscal 2006.
Capital Markets reported net revenues of $2.4 billion for the third quarter of fiscal 2007, a decrease of 14% from $2.8 billion in the third quarter of fiscal 2006. Fixed Income Capital Markets reported net revenues of $1.1 billion, a decrease of 47% from $2.0 billion in the third quarter of fiscal 2006, primarily due to lower performances within Credit and Securitized Products. Within Fixed Income Capital Markets, the Firm recorded very substantial valuation reductions, most significantly on leveraged loan commitments and residential mortgage-related positions. These losses were partially offset by large valuation gains on economic hedges and other liabilities. The result of these valuation items was a net reduction in revenues of approximately $700 million. Equities Capital Markets reported its second highest net revenue quarter, with net revenues of $1.4 billion, an increase of 64% from $837 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2006. This performance was driven by strong client activity in both Cash and Derivative Products, and represents the third straight quarter that Equities Capital Markets has surpassed $1 billion in net revenues. Investment Banking also reported its second highest net revenue quarter, with net revenues of $1.1 billion representing an increase of 48% from $726 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2006. This performance was driven by record advisory net revenues, which more than doubled to $425 million from $195 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2006, as well as strong equity origination net revenues, which rose 62% to $296 million from $183 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2006.�� For the quarter, debt origination net revenues were $350 million, consistent with $348 million reported in the third quarter of fiscal 2006. Investment Management reported record net revenues of $802 million, an increase of 33% from $605 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2006. This performance was driven by record Private Investment Management net revenues, which increased 30% to $334 million from $256 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2006, and record Asset Management net revenues, which increased
2
34% to $468 million from $349 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2006. Assets under management grew to a record $275 billion.
Non-interest expenses for the third quarter of fiscal 2007 were $3.1 billion, compared with $3.6 billion in the second quarter of fiscal 2007 and $2.8 billion in the third quarter of fiscal 2006. Compensation and benefits as a percentage of net revenues was 49.3% during the third quarter of fiscal 2007, consistent with both the second quarter of fiscal 2007 and the third quarter of fiscal 2006. Non-personnel expenses in the third quarter of fiscal 2007 were $979 million, compared with $915 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2007 and $751 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2006, reflecting continued investments in the franchise and $44 million ($37 million after tax, or $0.06 per common share (diluted)) of costs associated with the restructuring of the Firm’s global residential mortgage origination business, including the closure of BNC Mortgage LLC. These costs reflect non-personnel expenses of approximately $17 million and a goodwill write-down of approximately $27 million, which are included in Other expenses in the Firm’s Consolidated Statement of Income.
The Firm’s pre-tax margin was 28.0% for the third quarter of fiscal 2007, compared with 32.7% for the third quarter of fiscal 2006. Return on average common equity was 17.1% for the third quarter of fiscal 2007, compared with 21.0% for the third quarter of fiscal 2006. Return on average tangible common equity was 21.1% for the third quarter of fiscal 2007, compared with 26.1% for the third quarter of fiscal 2006.
As of August 31, 2007, Lehman Brothers’ total stockholders’ equity was $21.7 billion, and total long-term capital (stockholders’ equity and long-term borrowings, excluding any borrowings with remaining maturities of less than twelve months) was $141.5 billion. Book value per common share was $38.29.

FOOTNOTES TO SELECTED STATISTICAL INFORMATION
(Preliminary and Unaudited)
(a) Return on average common stockholders’ equity is computed by dividing annualized net income applicable to common stock for the period by average common stockholders’ equity. See the reconciliation on page 10.
(b) Return on average tangible common stockholders’ equity is computed by dividing annualized net income applicable to common stock for the period by average tangible common stockholders’ equity. Average tangible common stockholders’ equity equals average common stockholders’ equity less average identifiable intangible assets and goodwill. See the reconciliation on page 10. Management believes tangible common stockholders’ equity is a meaningful measure because it reflects the common stockholders’ equity deployed in our businesses.
(c) Net leverage ratio is defined as net assets (total assets excluding: 1) cash and securities segregated and on deposit for regulatory and other purposes, 2) collateralized lending agreements (including securities purchased under agreements to resell, securities borrowed and securities received as collateral), and 3) identifiable intangible assets and goodwill) divided by tangible equity capital. We believe net leverage based on net assets to be a more useful measure of leverage, because it excludes certain low-risk, non-inventory assets and utilizes tangible equity capital as a measure of our equity base. We believe tangible equity to be a more meaningful measure of our equity base as it includes stockholders’ equity and junior subordinated notes (which we consider to be equity-like instruments due to their subordinated and long-term nature) and excludes identifiable intangible assets and goodwill (which we do not consider available to support our remaining net assets). See the reconciliation on page 12. These measures are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures provided by other companies in the securities industry because of different methods of calculation.
(d) Effective December 1, 2006, we adopted both Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, and SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The aggregate impact to opening retained earnings from the adoption of these standards was an after-tax increase of approximately $67 million (approximately $113 million pre-tax).
(e) Total long-term capital includes long-term borrowings (excluding any borrowings with remaining maturities of less than twelve months) and total stockholders’ equity. We believe total long-term capital is useful to investors as a measure of our financial strength.
(f) The book value per common share calculation includes amortized restricted stock units granted under stock award programs.
(g) Leverage ratio is defined as total assets divided by total stockholders’ equity.
(h) Our definition for tangible equity capital limits the amount of junior subordinated notes and preferred stock included in the calculation to 25% of tangible equity capital. The amounts excluded were approximately $375 million and $117 million in the third and second quarters of 2007, respectively; no amounts were excluded in prior periods.
(i) Headcount at August 31, 2007 reflects reductions related to the restructuring of the Firm’s global residential mortgage origination business announced during the quarter, including the closure of BNC Mortgage LLC.
