NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
1. | These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Charter One Financial, Inc. (the “Company” or “Charter One”) Annual Report on Form 10-K. The interim financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented. Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for the interim periods disclosed herein are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year. |
2. | On October 1, 1999, Charter One completed its acquisition of St. Paul Bancorp, Inc. (“St. Paul”), which was accounted for as a pooling of interests. Headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, St. Paul was the holding company of St. Paul Federal Bank for Savings, a $6.2 billion savings bank that operated 58 branch offices in the metropolitan Chicago area. The merger was effected through the issuance of .99225 shares of Charter One common stock for each share of St. Paul’s common stock, resulting in the issuance of 39,892,023 shares (as adjusted for the 5% stock dividend issued September 30, 1999). |
3. | On November 5, 1999, the Company completed its acquisition of 14 Vermont National Bank offices from Chittenden Corporation (“Chittenden”), which was accounted for as a purchase. The acquisition was related to the branch divestiture required by federal regulators relative to Chittenden’s pending merger with Vermont Financial Services Corp., the parent company of Vermont National Bank and United Bank in Massachusetts. Charter One acquired $84.7 million in commercial real estate and business loans and assumed $357.5 million in deposits at fair value. The purchase resulted in $43.6 million in tax-deductible goodwill, which will be amortized over 15 years. |
4. | The Company has identified one reportable segment: consumer banking. Consumer banking includes retail banking, mortgage banking, and other related financial services that provide a full range of deposit products, consumer loans, business lending, and commercial real estate lending. |
5. | In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.” This statement establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. It requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those instruments at fair value. The FASB has delayed the effective date of SFAS No. 133 for one year, to fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. The delay, published as SFAS No. 137, applies to quarterly and annual financial statements. In June 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 138, “Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133.” SFAS No.138 amends the accounting and reporting standards of SFAS No. 133 for certain derivative instruments and certain hedging activities. It also amends SFAS No. 133 for decisions made by the FASB relating to the Derivatives Implementation Group process. Early application is still permitted. Management has not completed the process of evaluating SFAS No. 133 and SFAS No. 138 and therefore has not determined the impact that adopting these statements will have on the Company’s financial position and results of operations. |
6. | Certain items in the consolidated financial statements for 1999 have been reclassified to conform to the 2000 presentation. |

ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
HOLDING COMPANY BUSINESS
The following financial review presents an analysis of the asset and liability structure of Charter One Financial, Inc. and a discussion of the results of operations for each of the periods presented.
General
Headquartered in Cleveland, Ohio, Charter One Financial, Inc., hereafter referred to as “Charter One” or the “Company” is a financial holding company. Charter One is a Delaware corporation and owns all of the outstanding capital stock of Charter Michigan Bancorp, Inc. and Charter One Commercial (formerly ALBANK Commercial). Charter Michigan Bancorp, Inc. owns all of the outstanding capital stock of Charter One Bank, F.S.B., a federally chartered thrift. The primary business of Charter One is operating these financial institutions which we sometimes refer to in this document collectively as the “Bank.” The Bank’s primary business is providing consumer banking services to certain major markets in Ohio, Michigan, Illinois, New York, Vermont and in some markets of Massachusetts. As of June 30, 2000, the Bank and its subsidiaries were doing business through 418 full-service branches and 36 loan production offices.
Forward-Looking Statements
This document, including information included or incorporated by reference, contains, and future filings by the Company on Form 10-K, Form 10-Q and Form 8-K and future oral and written statements by the Company and its management may contain, forward-looking statements about Charter One and its subsidiaries which we believe are within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements with respect to anticipated future operating and financial performance, growth opportunities, interest rates, acquisition and divestiture opportunities, and synergies, efficiencies, cost savings and funding advantages expected to be realized from prior acquisitions. Words such as “may,” “could,” “should,” “would,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” and similar expressions are intended to identify these forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements by the Company and its management are based on beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, expectations, anticipations, estimates and intentions of management and are not guarantees of future performance. The Company disclaims any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements based on the occurrence of future events, the receipt of new information, or otherwise. The factors we discuss in this document and identified in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and those presented elsewhere by our management from time to time, could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements made in this document.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Performance Overview
Charter One reported net income of $103.3 million, or $.49 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2000. This was a $5.1 million, or 4.7%, decrease over the results of the second quarter of 1999 when net income was $108.4 million, or $.49 per diluted share. Both periods included merger-related charges. Excluding the after- tax impact of merger-related charges, our net income resulted in a return on average equity of 19.08% and a return on average assets of 1.51% for the three months ended June 30, 2000. The comparable returns for the second quarter of 1999 were 17.69% and 1.44%, respectively. The increase in our operating returns was primarily attributable to increases in income from retail banking and leasing operations.
For the six months ended June 30, 2000, Charter One reported net income of $215.0 million, or $1.02 per diluted share. This was a $3.7 million, or 1.7%, increase over the results for the same period in 1999. Both periods included merger-related charges. Our net income, excluding the after-tax impact of merger-related charges, resulted in a return on average equity of 18.84% and a return on average assets of 1.51% for the six months ended June 30, 2000. The comparable returns for the 1999 period were 17.46% and 1.41%, respectively. The increase in our operating returns, just as with the second quarter results, was primarily attributable to increases in income from retail banking and leasing operations. Additionally, the year-over-year comparison was affected by an increase in income from our Bank Owned Life Insurance (“BOLI”) program.

Figure 1 sets forth selected annualized performance ratios for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The table reflects these ratios on both an actual and operating return basis. Operating returns are computed using net income excluding the after-tax impact of merger-related charges for each of the periods presented. We believe that presentation of operating returns will provide comparability and insight into the operations of Charter One.

Net Interest Income
Net interest income is the difference between the interest and dividend income earned on our loans and investments and the interest expense on our deposits and borrowings. Net interest income is our principal source of earnings. Net interest income is affected by a number of factors including the level, pricing and maturity of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, interest rate fluctuations and asset quality, as well as general economic conditions and regulatory policies.
The following table shows average balances, interest earned or paid, and average interest rates for the periods indicated. Average balances are calculated on a daily basis. Nonaccrual loans are included in the average balance of loans. The mark-to-market adjustments on securities available for sale are included in noninterest-earning assets. The cost of liabilities includes the annualized effect of interest rate risk management instruments.

Our net interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2000 was $232.0 million, a decrease of $1.1 million from the three months ended June 30, 1999. The net yield on interest-earning assets during the second quarter of 2000 declined slightly to 3.18% from 3.23% for the comparable period of 1999, reflecting in part, our stock buyback program and the short-term impact of our recent adjustable-rate residential and consumer loans originations at teaser rates. Additionally, as reflected in Figure 4, the net yield on interest-earning assets at June 30, 2000 declined to 3.02% from 3.19% at December 31, 1999. The compression in the net yield on interest-earning assets is primarily attributed to the fact that our liabilities have repriced more quickly than our assets. Interest rates have risen considerably over the past year, as evidenced by an aggregate 175 basis point increase in the federal funds rate. This increase has been accompanied by a flattening of the yield curve. Given this interest rate environment, management has decided to slow balance sheet growth, with particular emphasis on accelerating the shift away from residential loans and securities by selling more of those portfolios. Instead, balance sheet capacity will be preserved for a more favorable interest rate environment, and existing capital will be allocated toward our stock buyback program. See “Capital and Dividends” below for further discussion regarding our stock buyback program. Thus, in the current interest rate environment, management expects operating earnings per share levels for the remainder of 2000 to be approximately 10% over operating earnings per share levels for the comparable 1999 period. This is expected to result in returns on average assets and average equity consistent with such returns achieved in the first half of 2000.
Our net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2000 was $465.0 million, a decrease of $3.7 million from the six months ended June 30, 1999. The net yield on average interest-earning assets decreased by four basis points during the six months ended June 30, 2000 to 3.20% from 3.24% in the comparable period of 1999. The reasons for the decrease in the net yield on average interest-earning assets are substantially the same as for the second quarter results discussed in the above paragraph. In addition, the year-over-year comparison was affected by our BOLI program initiated in 1999. This asset is classified in non-interest earning assets on the average balance sheet and the related income is recorded in other income on the consolidated statement of income. See “Other Income” below for further discussion regarding our BOLI program.

Other Income
Other income for the three months ended June 30, 2000 was $98.9 million, an increase of $19.7 million, or 24.8%, over the $79.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999. The increase was primarily attributable to income from retail banking and leasing operations. Retail banking income increased $10.9 million, or 21.5%, as we continued to introduce our products into new markets acquired through mergers. Income from leasing operations increased $8.7 million, primarily driven by residual values on underlying equipment realized upon termination of leases.
Other income for the six months ended June 30, 2000 was $181.5 million, an increase of $35.1 million, or 23.9%, over the $146.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999. The increase was primarily attributable to income from retail banking, leasing operations, and the BOLI program. The reasons for the increases in income from retail banking and leasing operations are substantially the same as for the second quarter results discussed in the above paragraph. The increase in the line item “other” was attributable to the BOLI program. During the year ended December 31, 1999, we increased our BOLI portfolio by $630.0 million. The related income on the BOLI asset is recorded in the line item “other” and is the primary reason for the $9.8 million increase in the line item “other” over the comparable period in 1999.
Administrative Expenses
Administrative expenses were $167.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2000, an increase of $22.3 million, or 15.4%, as compared to the second quarter of 1999. Each year included merger-related expenses. There were $20.8 million of merger-related expenses recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2000, and $3.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999. Excluding these merger-related charges, our administrative expenses were $146.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2000 and $141.7 million for the three months ended June

Table of Contents
30, 1999. This resulted in a comparable ratio of administrative expenses to average assets (excluding the merger- related charges) of 1.88% and 1.84% for the three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Our efficiency ratio (excluding the merger-related charges) was 43.50% for the three months ended June 30, 2000, an improvement when compared to 45.30% for the three months ended June 30, 1999. See the above discussion in “Other Income” regarding additional factors that contributed to the improvement in our efficiency ratio.
Administrative expenses were $310.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000, an increase of $21.9 million, or 7.6%, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 1999. Each year included merger-related expenses. There were $24.1 million of merger-related expenses recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2000, and $5.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999. Excluding these merger-related charges, our administrative expenses were $286.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and $282.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999. This resulted in a comparable ratio of administrative expenses to average assets (excluding the merger-related charges) of 1.86% and 1.85% for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Our efficiency ratio (excluding the merger-related charges) was 43.45% for the six months ended June 30, 2000, an improvement when compared to 45.88% for the six months ended June 30, 1999. See the above discussion in “Other Income” regarding additional factors that contributed to the improvement in our efficiency ratio.
Federal Income Taxes
Federal income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2000 was $48.6 million, as compared to $51.0 million for the same period in 1999. The primary reason for this 4.7% decrease in the provision for federal income taxes was a 4.7% decrease in pre-tax book income. The effective tax rate was 32.0% for the 2000 and 1999 periods, respectively.
Federal income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2000 was $101.2 million, essentially unchanged when compared to federal income tax expense of $100.9 million for the same period in 1999. The effective tax rates were 32.0% and 32.3% for the 2000 and 1999 periods, respectively.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
Overview
At June 30, 2000, total assets were $32.2 billion, as compared to total assets of $31.8 billion at December 31, 1999. Contributing to the increase in total assets was the growth in our loan portfolio since December 31, 1999. Figure 5 illustrates our continued emphasis in originating consumer and commercial loans due to the higher yields and shorter terms provided by these types of loans. Additionally, the adjustable-rate portion of our one-to-four family portfolio increased by $835.7 million, or 14.7%, since December 31, 1999.

At June 30, 2000, there were $72.1 million of loans and leases not reflected in the table above, where known information about possible credit problems of borrowers caused management to have doubts as to the ability of the borrower to comply with present repayment terms and that may result in disclosure of such loans and leases in the future.

SOURCES OF FUNDS
General
Deposits have historically been the most important source of our funds for use in lending and for general business purposes. We also derive funds from FHLB advances, reverse repurchase agreements and other borrowings, principal repayments on loans and mortgage-backed securities, funds provided by operations and proceeds from the sale of loans and loan participations.
Deposits
Deposit inflows and outflows are significantly influenced by general interest rates, market conditions and competitive factors. We reprice our deposits primarily based on competitive conditions. In order to decrease the volatility of our deposits, we impose stringent early withdrawal penalties on our certificates of deposit. Consumer and commercial deposits are attracted principally from within our primary market areas through the offering of a broad range of deposit instruments.

Investment securities and mortgage-backed securities with a book value of $506.2 million at June 30, 2000 and $544.4 million at December 31, 1999, were pledged to secure public deposits and for other purposes required or permitted by law.
Borrowings
At June 30, 2000, borrowings primarily consisted of FHLB advances. These positions were secured by our investment in the stock of the FHLB, as well as $11.3 billion in certain real estate loans and $2.9 billion in mortgage-backed securities.

Interest Rate Risk Management
We utilize various types of interest rate contracts in managing our interest rate risk profile. We utilize fixed receipt swaps to convert certain of our longer term callable certificates of deposit into short-term variable instruments. Under these agreements we have agreed to receive interest from the counterparty on a notional amount at a fixed rate defined in the agreement, and to pay interest at a floating rate indexed to LIBOR. We utilize fixed payment swaps to convert certain of our floating-rate or short-term, fixed-rate liabilities into longer term, fixed-rate instruments. Under these agreements we have agreed to pay interest to the counterparty on a notional principal amount at a fixed rate defined in the agreement, and receive interest at a floating rate indexed to LIBOR. The amounts of interest exchanged are calculated on the basis of notional principal amounts.

Liquidity
Our principal sources of funds are deposits, advances from the FHLB of Cincinnati, reverse repurchase agreements, repayments and maturities of loans and securities, proceeds from the sale of loans and securities, and funds provided by operations. While scheduled loan, security and interest-bearing deposit amortization and maturity are relatively predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and loan and mortgage-backed securities repayments are greatly influenced by economic conditions, the general level of interest rates and competition. We utilize particular sources of funds based on comparative costs and availability. We generally manage the pricing of deposits to maintain a steady deposit balance, but from time to time may decide not to pay rates on deposits as high as our competition and, when necessary, to supplement deposits with longer term and/or lower cost alternative sources of funds such as
18
Table of Contents
FHLB advances and reverse repurchase agreements. Management also considers our interest-sensitivity profile when deciding on alternative sources of funds. At June 30, 2000, our one-year gap was a negative 13.33% of total assets. See Item 3 “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk” regarding further information on our interest rate risk profile.
We are required by regulation to maintain specific minimum levels of liquid investments. Regulations currently in effect require us to maintain average liquid assets at least equal to 4.0% of the sum of the average daily balance of net withdrawable accounts and borrowed funds due in one year or less. This regulatory requirement may be changed from time to time to reflect current economic conditions. Charter One Bank’s average regulatory liquidity ratio for the second quarter of 2000 was 4.90%.
We anticipate that we will have sufficient funds available to meet our commitments. At June 30, 2000, we had outstanding commitments to originate loans and leases of $1.7 billion, unfunded consumer lines of credit totaling $2.6 billion and unfunded corporate banking lines of credit totaling $141.3 million. We do not expect all of these lines to be used by the borrowers. Outstanding letters of credit totaled $75.6 million as of June 30, 2000. Certificates of deposit scheduled to mature in one year or less at June 30, 2000 totaled $7.8 billion. We believe that a significant portion of the amounts maturing will remain with us because they are retail deposits. We believe we have significant borrowing capacity with the FHLB and investment banking firms to meet any need for additional borrowings and sources of funds.
Capital and Dividends
On October 20, 1999, our Board of Directors authorized a buyback to repurchase up to 3.3 million shares of Charter One common stock in a program of open market or privately negotiated purchases. As of March 31, 2000, we had purchased all of the shares authorized under this buyback for a total cost of $68.6 million. The repurchased shares are reserved in treasury for later reissue in connection with employee benefit plans.
On April 26, 2000, our Board of Directors authorized a new buyback to repurchase up to 7.5 million shares of Charter One common stock in a program of open market purchases or privately negotiated transactions. The repurchased shares will be reserved in treasury for later reissue in connection with future stock dividends as well as employee benefit plans. As of June 30, 2000, we had purchased all of the shares authorized under this buyback for a total cost of $170.7 million.
On July 18, 2000, the Board of Directors of Charter One authorized management to repurchase up to 10% of the Company’s outstanding common stock in a buyback program. The repurchased shares will be reserved in treasury for later reissue in connection with future stock dividends as well as employee benefit plans. As of August 4, 2000, we had purchased 2,854,400 shares authorized under this buyback for a total cost of $62.5 million.
As a financial holding company, Charter One is subject to regulation by the Federal Reserve Board (“FRB”) under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 as amended, and the regulations of the FRB, including various capital requirements. Charter One Commercial and Charter One Bank, F.S.B. are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and the Office of Thrift Supervision (“OTS”), respectively. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly discretionary, actions by each regulator that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on our financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, specific capital guidelines must be met that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices.
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require Charter One and Charter One Commercial to individually maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets, and of Tier 1 capital to average assets. Charter One Bank, F.S.B. is required to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (also set forth in the table below) of total and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets, of core capital to adjusted tangible assets, and of tangible capital to tangible assets.
Each regulator of Charter One requires the institution to meet specific capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action that involve quantitative measures of an institution’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The institution’s capital classification is also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings,

Table of Contents
and other factors.
The actual regulatory capital ratios calculated for Charter One, Charter One Commercial and Charter One Bank, F.S.B., along with the capital amounts and ratios for capital adequacy purposes and the amounts required to be categorized as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action are as follows:

As of December 31, 1999, the most recent notification from the FRB categorized Charter One as “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for Prompt Corrective Action. To be categorized as well capitalized, Charter One and Charter One Bank, F.S.B. must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the table above.

Management believes that, as of June 30, 2000, Charter One, Charter One Commercial and Charter One Bank, F.S.B., individually met all capital adequacy requirements to which they were subject. Events beyond management’s control, such as fluctuations in interest rates or a downturn in the economy in areas in which the institution’s loans and securities are concentrated could adversely affect future earnings and, consequently, the institution’s ability to meet its future capital requirements.
