WASHINGTON MUTUAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1: Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements are unaudited and include the accounts of Washington Mutual, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Washington Mutual” or the “Company”). Washington Mutual’s accounting and financial reporting policies are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The information furnished in these interim statements reflects all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for such periods. Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature unless otherwise disclosed in this Form 10-Q. The results of operations in the interim statements are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. The interim financial information should be read in conjunction with Washington Mutual, Inc.’s 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period classifications.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In December 2003, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee of the AICPA issued Statement of Position No. 03-3 (“SOP 03-3”), Accounting for Certain Loans or Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer . SOP 03-3 addresses the accounting for differences between the contractual cash flows and the cash flows expected to be collected from purchased loans or debt securities if those differences are attributable, in part, to credit quality. SOP 03-3 does not permit the carryover of any specific valuation allowances previously recognized by the seller. Interest income should be recognized based on the effective yield from the cash flows expected to be collected. To the extent that the purchased loans experience subsequent deterioration in credit quality, a valuation allowance would be established for any additional cash flows that are not expected to be received. However, if more cash flows subsequently are expected to be received than originally estimated, the effective yield would be adjusted on a prospective basis. SOP 03-3 is effective for loans and debt securities acquired after December 31, 2004. The adoption of SOP 03-3 did not have a material effect on the Consolidated Statements of Income or the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition .

In March 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Staff Position Emerging Issues Task Force 85-24-1 (“FSP EITF 85-24-1”), Distribution Fees by Distributors of Mutual Funds That Do Not Have a Front-End Sales Charge . FSP EITF 85-24-1 considers the appropriate accounting for cash received from a third party for a distributor’s right to future cash flows relating to distribution fees for shares previously sold. The FASB staff concluded that revenue recognition is appropriate when cash is received from a third party if the distributor no longer has any continuing involvement or recourse associated with the rights. The Company applied FSP EITF 85-24-1 as of April 1, 2005. The application of FSP EITF 85-24-1 did not have a material effect on the Consolidated Statements of Income or the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.

Stock-Based Compensation

In accordance with the transitional guidance of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“Statement”) No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123 , the Company elected to prospectively apply the fair value method of accounting for stock-based awards granted subsequent to December 31, 2002 .   For such awards, fair value is estimated using a modified Black-Scholes model, with compensation expense recognized in earnings over the required service period. Stock-based awards granted prior to January 1, 2003, and not modified after

WASHINGTON MUTUAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)

December 31, 2002, will continue to be accounted for under Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees . The pro forma presentation of the impact these awards would have on the consolidated financial statements, if they were accounted for on the fair value basis, will continue to be disclosed in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements until the last of those awards vest in December 2005.

Had compensation cost for the Company’s stock-based compensation plans been determined using the fair value method consistent with Statement No. 123 for all periods presented, the Company’s net income attributable to common stock and net income per common share would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In December 2004, the FASB issued a revised version of the original Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation . Statement No. 123R, Share-Based Payment , supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees . This Statement requires that the cost resulting from all share-based payment transactions be recognized in the financial statements. This Statement establishes fair value as the measurement objective in accounting for share-based payment arrangements and requires all entities to apply a fair value-based measurement method in accounting for share-based payment transactions with employees, except for equity instruments held by employee stock ownership plans. Effective January 1, 2003 and in accordance with the transitional guidance of Statement No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation Transition and Disclosure , the Company elected to prospectively apply the fair value method of accounting for stock-based awards granted subsequent to December 31, 2002. The Company will prospectively apply Statement No. 123R to its financial statements as of January 1, 2006. However, as the Company has already adopted Statement No. 148 and substantially all stock-based awards granted prior to its adoption will be fully vested by the end of this year, Statement No. 123R will not have a significant effect on the Consolidated Statements of Income or the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.

WASHINGTON MUTUAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)

In March 2005, Securities and Exchange Commission (‘‘SEC’’) Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (‘‘SAB 107’’) was issued, which expresses views of the staff regarding the interaction between Statement No. 123R, Share Based Payment , and certain SEC rules and regulations and provides the staff’s views regarding the valuation of share-based payment arrangements for public companies. The Company will consider the guidance provided by SAB 107 as part of its adoption of Statement No. 123R.

In March 2005, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 47 (“FIN 47”), Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations , an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations . FIN 47 generally applies to long-lived assets and requires a liability to be recognized for a conditional asset retirement obligation if the fair value of that liability can be reasonably estimated. A conditional asset retirement obligation is defined as a legal obligation to perform an activity associated with an asset retirement in which the timing and/or method of settlement are conditional on a future event that may or may not occur or be within the control of the company. A liability should be recognized when incurred (based on its fair value at that date), which generally would be upon acquisition or construction of the related asset. Upon recognition, the offset to the liability would be capitalized as part of the cost of the asset and depreciated over the estimated useful life of that asset. The Interpretation is effective no later than December 31, 2005, with early application encouraged. The Company is evaluating the impact of FIN 47. At this time, the Company does not expect the application of FIN 47 to have a significant effect on the Consolidated Statements of Income or the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.

In May 2005, the FASB issued Statement No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections—a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3. This Statement replaces APB Opinion No. 20, Accounting Changes, and Statement No. 3, Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements, and changes the requirements for the accounting and reporting of a change in accounting principle. This Statement requires changes in accounting principle to be retrospectively applied to the prior periods presented in the financial statements, unless it is impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the change. This Statement applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principles and also applies to changes required by an accounting pronouncement in the unusual instance that the pronouncement does not include specific transition provisions. This Statement also carries forward, without substantive change, the provisions for the correction of an error from APB Opinion No. 20. Statement No. 154 is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. The Company does not expect the application of this Statement to have a significant effect on the Consolidated Statements of Income or the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.

In May 2005, the FASB issued FSP EITF 00-19-1, Application of EITF Issue No. 00-19 to Freestanding Financial Instruments Originally Issued as Employee Compensation . The FASB directed its staff to issue this FSP to clarify the application of EITF Issue No. 00-19, Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock, to freestanding financial instruments originally issued as employee compensation that can be settled only by delivering registered shares. This FSP clarifies that a requirement to deliver registered shares, in and of itself, will not result in liability classification for freestanding financial instruments originally issued as employee compensation. This clarification is consistent with the Board’s intent when FASB Statement No. 123R, Share-Based Payment , was issued. The guidance in this FSP shall be applied in accordance with the effective date and transition provisions of Statement No. 123R. The Company does not expect the application of FSP EITF 00-19-1 to have a significant effect on the Consolidated Statements of Income or the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.

Note 2: Discontinued Operations

During the first quarter of 2004 the Company sold its consumer finance subsidiary, Washington Mutual Finance Corporation. Accordingly, this former subsidiary has been accounted for as a discontinued operation and its results of operations and cash flows have been removed from the Company’s results of continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2004 on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Cash Flows. The results from discontinued operations in 2004 amounted to $399 million net of tax, which includes a pretax gain of $676 million ($420 million, net of tax) that was recorded upon the sale of Washington Mutual Finance Corporation.

For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2005, options to purchase an additional 8,777,042 and 8,730,564 shares of common stock were outstanding, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because their inclusion would have had an antidilutive effect. Likewise, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, options to purchase an additional 1,812,113 and 1,795,436 shares of common stock were outstanding, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because their inclusion also would have had an antidilutive effect.

Additionally, as part of the 1996 business combination with Keystone Holdings, Inc. (the parent of American Savings Bank, F.A.), 6 million shares of common stock, with an assigned value of $18.4944 per share, are being held in escrow for the benefit of certain of the former investors in Keystone Holdings and their transferees. During 2003, the number of escrow shares was reduced from 18 million to 6 million as a result of the return and cancellation of 12 million shares to the Company. The escrow will expire on December 20, 2008, subject to certain limited extensions. The conditions under which these shares can be released from escrow are related to the outcome of certain litigation and not based on future earnings or market prices. At June 30, 2005, the conditions for releasing the shares from escrow had not occurred, and therefore, none of the shares in the escrow were included in the above computations.

The projected amortization expense of MSR is an estimate and should be used with caution. The amortization expense for future periods was calculated by applying the same quantitative factors, such as projected MSR prepayment estimates and discount rates, as were used to determine amortization expense at the end of the second quarter of 2005 . These factors are inherently subject to significant fluctuations, primarily due to the effect that changes in mortgage rates have on loan prepayment experience. Accordingly, any projection of MSR amortization in future periods is limited by the conditions that existed

WASHINGTON MUTUAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)

at the time the calculations were performed, and may not be indicative of actual amortization expense that will be recorded in future periods.

Note 5: Guarantees

The Company sells loans without recourse that may have to be subsequently repurchased if a defect that occurred during the loan’s origination process results in a violation of a representation or warranty made in connection with the sale of the loan. When a loan sold to an investor without recourse fails to perform according to its contractual terms, the investor will typically review the loan file to determine whether defects in the origination process occurred and if such defects constitute a violation of a representation or warranty made to the investor in connection with the sale. If such a defect is identified, the Company may be required to either repurchase the loan or indemnify the investor for losses sustained . If there are no such defects, the Company has no commitment to repurchase the loan. As of June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, the amount of loans sold without recourse totaled $536.56 billion and $533.51 billion, which substantially represents the unpaid principal balance of the Company’s loans serviced for others portfolio. The Company has accrued $194 million as of June 30, 2005 and $148 million as of December 31, 2004 to cover the estimated loss exposure related to the loan origination process defects that are inherent within this portfolio.

Note 6: Operating Segments

The Company has three operating segments for the purpose of management reporting: the Retail Banking and Financial Services Group, the Home Loans Group (previously called the “Mortgage Banking Group”) and the Commercial Group. Unlike financial accounting, there is no comprehensive, authoritative guidance for management reporting . The management reporting process measures the performance of the operating segments based on the management structure of the Company and is not necessarily comparable with similar information for any other financial institution. The Company’s operating segments are defined by the products and services they offer.

The Retail Banking and Financial Services Group’s principal activities include: (1) offering a comprehensive line of deposit and other retail banking products and services to consumers and small businesses; (2) originating, managing and servicing home equity loans and lines of credit; (3) providing investment advisory and brokerage services, sales of annuities, mutual fund management and other financial services; and (4) holding the Company’s portfolio of home loans held for investment. This segment’s home loan portfolio consists of home loan inter-segment purchases from the Home Loans Group and home loans purchased from secondary market participants, including home loans made to subprime borrowers.

The Home Loans Group’s principal activities include: (1) originating and servicing home loans; (2) buying and selling home loans in the secondary market; and (3) selling insurance-related products and participating in reinsurance activities with other insurance companies. For management reporting purposes, home loans originated by this segment are either transferred through inter-segment sales to the Retail Banking and Financial Services Group or are sold to secondary market participants. The segment typically retains the rights to service these loans and receives fees and other forms of remuneration for providing this service. The Home Loans Group performs servicing activities for substantially all of the Company’s home loans managed portfolio – whether the home loans are held for investment or have been sold on a servicing-retained basis to secondary market participants. Insurance products that complement the mortgage lending process, such as private mortgage insurance and property and casualty insurance, are also made available. This segment also manages the Company’s captive reinsurance activities.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)

The Commercial Group’s principal activities include: (1) providing financing to developers and investors for the acquisition or construction of multi-family dwellings and, to a lesser extent, other commercial properties; (2) originating and servicing multi-family and other commercial real estate loans and either holding such loans in portfolio as part of its commercial asset management business or selling them in the secondary market; (3) providing financing to mortgage bankers for the origination of residential loan products; and (4) originating and servicing home loans made to subprime borrowers through the Company’s subsidiary, Long Beach Mortgage Company.

The Corporate Support/Treasury and Other category includes enterprise-wide management of the Company’s interest rate risk, liquidity, capital, borrowings, and a majority of the Company’s investment securities. As part of the Company’s asset and liability management process, the Treasury function provides oversight and direction across the enterprise over matters that impact the profile of the Company’s balance sheet, such as product composition of loans that the Company holds in the portfolio, the appropriate mix of wholesale and capital markets borrowings at any given point in time, and the allocation of capital resources to the business segments. This category also includes the costs of the Company’s technology services, facilities, legal, human resources and accounting and finance functions to the extent not allocated to the business segments. Also reported in this category is the net impact of funds transfer pricing for loan and deposit balances, lower of cost or market adjustments and the write-off of inter-segment premiums associated with transfers of loans from the Retail Banking and Financial Services Group to the Home Loans Group when home loans previously designated as held for investment are moved to held for sale and all charges incurred from the Company’s cost containment initiative, which was a key initiative during 2004.

The Company uses various management accounting methodologies, which are enhanced from time to time, to assign certain balance sheet and income statement items to the responsible operating segment. Methodologies that are applied to the measurement of segment profitability include: (1) a funds transfer pricing system, which allocates interest income funding credits and funding charges between the operating segments and the Treasury Division. A segment will receive a funding credit from the Treasury Division for its liabilities and its share of risk-adjusted economic capital. Conversely, a segment is assigned a charge by the Treasury Division to fund its assets. The system is based on the interest rate sensitivities of assets and liabilities and is designed to extract net interest income volatility from the business units and concentrate it in the Treasury Division, where it is managed. Certain basis and other residual risk remains in the operating segments; (2) a calculation of the provision for loan and lease losses based on management’s current assessment of the long-term, normalized net charge-off ratio for loan products within each segment, which is recalibrated periodically to the latest available loan loss experience data. This process differs from the “losses inherent in the loan portfolio” methodology that is used to measure the allowance for loan and lease losses for consolidated reporting purposes. This methodology is used to provide segment management with provision information for strategic decision making; (3) the utilization of an activity-based costing approach to measure allocations of certain operating expenses that were not directly charged to the segments; (4) the allocation of goodwill and other intangible assets to the operating segments based on benefits received from each acquisition; (5) capital charges for goodwill as a component of an internal measurement of return on the goodwill allocated to the operating segment; and (6) inter-segment activities which include the transfer of originated mortgage loans that are to be held in portfolio from the Home Loans Group to the Retail Banking and Financial Services Group and a broker fee arrangement between Home Loans and Retail Banking and Financial Services. When originated mortgage loans are transferred, the Home Loans Group records a gain on the sale of the loans based on an assumed profit factor. This profit factor is included as a premium to the value of the transferred loans, which is amortized as an adjustment to the net interest income recorded by the Retail Banking and

Financial Services Group while the loan is held for investment. If a loan that was designated as held for investment is subsequently transferred to held for sale, the inter-segment premium is written off. Inter-segment broker fees are recorded by the Retail Banking and Financial Services Group when home loans are initiated through retail banking stores, while the Home Loans Group records a broker fee when the origination of home equity loans and lines of credit are initiated through home loan stores. The results of all inter-segment activities are eliminated as reconciling adjustments that are necessary to conform the presentation of management accounting policies to the accounting principles used in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

(1)                  Represents the difference between home loan premium amortization recorded by the Retail Banking and Financial Services  Group and the amount recognized in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income. For management reporting  purposes, loans that are held in portfolio by the Retail Banking and Financial Services Group are treated as if they are  purchased from the Home Loans Group. Since the cost basis of these loans includes an assumed profit factor paid to the Home Loans Group, the amortization of loan premiums recorded by the Retail Banking and Financial Services Group includes this assumed profit factor and must therefore be eliminated as a reconciling adjustment.

(2)                  Represents the difference between the long-term, normalized net charge-off ratio used to assess expected loan and lease losses for the operating segments and the “losses inherent in the loan portfolio” methodology used by the Company.

(3)                  Represents the difference between gain from mortgage loans primarily recorded by the Home Loans Group and the gain from mortgage loans recognized in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income. As the Home Loans Group holds no loans in portfolio, all loans originated or purchased by this segment are considered to be salable for management reporting purposes.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Discontinued Operations

In January 2004, the Company sold its subsidiary, Washington Mutual Finance Corporation, for approximately $1.30 billion in cash. Accordingly, this former subsidiary is presented in this report as a discontinued operation with its results of operations and cash flows segregated from the Company’s results of continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2004 on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Cash Flows as well as the tables presented herein, unless otherwise noted.

Cautionary Statements

The Company’s Form 10-Q and other documents that it files with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) have forward-looking statements. In addition, senior management may make forward-looking statements orally to analysts, investors, the media and others. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. They often include words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” or words of similar meaning, or future or conditional verbs such as “will,” “would,” “should,” “could” or “may.”

Forward-looking statements provide management’s expectations or predictions of future conditions, events or results. They are not guarantees of future performance. By their nature, forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties. These statements speak only as of the date they are made. Management does not undertake to update forward-looking statements to reflect the impact of circumstances or events that arise after the date the forward-looking statements were made. There are a number of factors, many of which are beyond management’s control, which could cause actual conditions, events or results to differ significantly from those described in the forward-looking statements. Some of these factors are:

·         Volatile interest rates impact the mortgage banking business and could adversely affect earnings;

·         Rising unemployment or a decrease in housing prices could adversely affect credit performance;

·         The potential for negative amortization in the option adjustable-rate mortgage product could have an adverse effect on the Company’s credit performance;

·         The Company faces competition from banking and nonbanking companies;

·         Changes in the regulation of financial services companies and housing government-sponsored enterprises, and in particular, declines in the liquidity of the mortgage loan secondary market, could adversely affect business;

·         General business and economic conditions, including movements in interest rates, the slope of the yield curve and the potential overextension of housing prices in certain geographic markets, may significantly affect the Company’s business activities and earnings; and,

·         Negative public opinion could damage the Company’s reputation and adversely affect earnings.

Overview

Net income for the second quarter of 2005 was $844 million, or $0.95 per diluted share, an increase from $489 million, or $0.55 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2004.

Net interest income was $1.93 billion for the second quarter of 2005, compared with $1.79 billion for the second quarter of 2004. The increase was primarily due to growth in the average total loan portfolio, which increased by 13% from June 30, 2004 to June 30, 2005 and contributed to a 16% increase in average total interest-earning assets during that period. A significant portion of the increase in net interest income that would otherwise have been realized from the growth in interest-earning assets was offset by contraction in the net interest margin. The net interest margin in the second quarter of 2005 was 2.66%, a decline of 7 basis points from the first quarter of 2005 and 20 basis points from 2.86% in the second quarter of 2004. The decrease in the net interest margin was due to an increase in the cost of the Company’s interest-bearing liabilities, which was driven by increases in short-term interest rates since June of 2004. As domestic economic indicators continued to strengthen during 2004 and into the first half of 2005, the Federal Reserve initiated a series of 25 basis point increases in the targeted federal funds rate. This benchmark interest rate has increased from 1.00% in the second quarter of 2004 to 3.25% at the end of the second quarter of 2005. These increases have gradually shifted the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy from a position that provided a stimulus effect on the domestic economy towards a more neutral fiscal policy that reduces the potential threat of inflation. The Federal Reserve has recently indicated that the federal funds rate is likely to continue its upward migration until it reaches a point that neither stimulates nor hinders economic forces. Thus, the measured pace of federal funds rate increases is likely to continue until that point is attained. Since our adjustable-rate home loans and securities reprice to current market rates more slowly than our wholesale borrowing sources, the Company expects the net interest margin will continue to be pressured until short-term interest rates stabilize.

Downward pressure on the net interest margin from this disparity in repricing speeds was partially mitigated by the growth in home equity line of credit balances, which have repricing frequencies that are more closely aligned with the faster repricing behavior of the Company’s wholesale borrowings. The average balance of home equity loans and lines of credit was $47.20 billion in the second quarter of 2005, an increase of $13.48 billion, or 40% from the second quarter of 2004, while the yield on this portfolio increased from 4.53% to 5.71%. Additionally, the margin benefited from the partial restructuring of the available-for-sale securities portfolio in the first quarter of 2005, which resulted in the sale of approximately $3 billion of lower-yielding debt securities and the subsequent purchase of securities with comparatively higher yields.

Revenue from sales and servicing of home mortgage loans, including the effects of all MSR risk management instruments, was $403 million for the second quarter of 2005, an increase from zero in the second quarter of 2004. The increase was the result of a more benign interest-rate environment in the second quarter of 2005, compared with the same period in 2004, and the restructuring of the Company’s MSR risk management portfolio, which had the collective effect of reducing the earnings volatility of the MSR asset. The portfolio now encompasses a broader array of instruments such as principal-only mortgage-backed securities, forward commitments to purchase and sell mortgage-backed securities, and other derivative instruments. This change in the mix of risk management instruments has had the cumulative effect of reducing the Company’s exposure to fluctuations between interest rate movements in LIBOR-based interest rate contracts and changes in mortgage interest rates.

The continuing strength in the U.S. housing market fueled strong customer demand for fixed-rate mortgages and the Company’s option adjustable-rate mortgage product (“Option ARM”). The sustained liquidity of this product in the secondary market enabled the Company to designate approximately $14.3 billion of Option ARM volume for sale during the quarter, while still retaining over $5 billion of volume within the home loan portfolio. Additionally, as part of the Company’s proactive approach to

20




managing its credit risk profile, the Company transferred approximately $2.9 billion of Option ARMs from the loan portfolio to loans held for sale during the second quarter. This transfer more closely aligns the product profitability of the Option ARM loan portfolio to the Company’s current risk-adjusted return on equity targets.

During the first half of 2005, the spread between short-term and long-term interest rates compressed, resulting in a flattening of the yield curve. Generally, as the yield curve flattens, fixed-rate mortgages become more attractive to U.S. consumers for the financing of home purchases. Additionally, consumers with existing adjustable-rate loans are more inclined to refinance their mortgages into fixed-rate products. As the Company typically sells its fixed-rate loan production in the secondary market, the growth rate of the Company’s home loan portfolio may be slower in future periods if the yield curve continues to flatten.

The Company continues to grow its retail banking business by opening new stores and enhancing its products and services. Since the beginning of the year, the Company has opened 59 new stores, with a revised target of opening an overall total of 200 to 225 stores within its existing markets during 2005. During the second quarter of 2005, depositor and other retail banking fees increased 7% from the same period in the prior year, driven by an increase in the number of noninterest-bearing checking accounts as well as an increase in debit card interchange and ATM-related income. The number of noninterest-bearing checking accounts at June 30, 2005 totaled approximately 7.4 million, compared with approximately 6.8 million at June 30, 2004. Total net retail deposit accounts, which consist of checking, savings and time deposit accounts for consumers and small businesses, increased more than 504,000 during the second quarter of 2005.

Noninterest expense was $1.8 billion for the second quarter, a decrease of $20 million from the second quarter of 2004. This decrease is attributable to the Company’s progress in productivity improvements and its continuous focus on expense management discipline.

On June 5, 2005 the Company and Providian Financial Corporation entered into a definitive agreement that would result in the merger of Providian with and into Washington Mutual, Inc., with Washington Mutual, Inc. as the surviving corporation in the merger. This merger is expected to be completed during the fourth quarter of 2005. Subject to the terms and conditions of the agreement, including the approval of Providian common shareholders, such shareholders will receive consideration based on a fixed exchange ratio of 0.45 Washington Mutual shares for each Providian share. The purchase price will be distributed to Providian shareholders in a combination of stock and cash.

Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, under the direction of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting, on a timely basis, information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Management reviews and evaluates the design and effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures on an ongoing basis, and improves controls and procedures over time and corrects any deficiencies that may be discovered . While management believes the present design of the disclosure controls and procedures is effective, future events affecting the Company may cause the disclosure controls and procedures to be modified.

There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the second quarter of 2005 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the

21




Company’s internal control over financial reporting. For additional discussion of the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting, refer to the Company’s 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K, “Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.”

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, requires management to make a number of judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, income and expenses in the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company believes that the judgments, estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of its Consolidated Financial Statements are appropriate given the facts and circumstances as of June 30, 2005.

Various elements of the Company’s accounting policies, by their nature, are inherently subject to estimation techniques, valuation assumptions and other subjective assessments. In particular, the Company has identified two accounting policies that, due to the judgments, estimates and assumptions inherent in those policies, and the sensitivity of its Consolidated Financial Statements to those judgments, estimates and assumptions, are critical to an understanding of its Consolidated Financial Statements. These policies relate to the valuation of its MSR and the methodology that determines its allowance for loan and lease losses.

Management has discussed the development and selection of these critical accounting policies with the Company’s Audit Committee. These policies and the judgments, estimates and assumptions are described in greater detail in the Company’s 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K in the “Critical Accounting Policies” section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis and in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements – “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.”

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued a revised version of the original Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“Statement”) No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation . Statement No. 123R, Share-Based Payment , supersedes Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees . This Statement requires that the cost resulting from all share-based payment transactions be recognized in the financial statements. This Statement establishes fair value as the measurement objective in accounting for share-based payment arrangements and requires all entities to apply a fair value-based measurement method in accounting for share-based payment transactions with employees, except for equity instruments held by employee stock ownership plans. Effective January 1, 2003 and in accordance with the transitional guidance of Statement No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation Transition and Disclosure , the Company elected to prospectively apply the fair value method of accounting for stock-based awards granted subsequent to December 31, 2002. The Company will prospectively apply Statement No. 123R to its financial statements as of January 1, 2006. However, as the Company has already adopted Statement No. 148 and substantially all stock-based awards granted prior to its adoption will be fully vested by the end of this year, Statement No. 123R will not have a significant effect on the Consolidated Statements of Income or the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.

In March 2005, Securities and Exchange Commission (‘‘SEC’’) Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (‘‘SAB 107’’) was issued, which expresses views of the staff regarding the interaction between Statement No. 123R, Share Based Payment , and certain SEC rules and regulations and provides the staff’s views regarding the valuation of share-based payment arrangements for public companies. The Company will consider the guidance provided by SAB 107 as part of its adoption of Statement No. 123R.

22




In March 2005, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 47 (“FIN 47”), Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations , an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations . FIN 47 generally applies to long-lived assets and requires a liability to be recognized for a conditional asset retirement obligation if the fair value of that liability can be reasonably estimated. A conditional asset retirement obligation is defined as a legal obligation to perform an activity associated with an asset retirement in which the timing and/or method of settlement are conditional on a future event that may or may not occur or be within the control of the company. A liability should be recognized when incurred (based on its fair value at that date), which generally would be upon acquisition or construction of the related asset. Upon recognition, the offset to the liability would be capitalized as part of the cost of the asset and depreciated over the estimated useful life of that asset. The Interpretation is effective no later than December 31, 2005, with early application encouraged. The Company is evaluating the impact of FIN 47. At this time, the Company does not expect the application of FIN 47 to have a significant effect on the Consolidated Statements of Income or the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.

In May 2005, the FASB issued Statement No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections—a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3. This Statement replaces APB Opinion No. 20, Accounting Changes, and Statement No. 3, Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements, and changes the requirements for the accounting and reporting of a change in accounting principle. This Statement requires changes in accounting principle to be retrospectively applied to the prior periods presented in the financial statements, unless it is impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the change. This Statement applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principles and also applies to changes required by an accounting pronouncement in the unusual instance that the pronouncement does not include specific transition provisions. This Statement carries forward, without substantive change, the provisions for the correction of an error from APB Opinion No. 20. Statement No. 154 is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. The Company does not expect the application of this Statement to have a significant effect on the Consolidated Statements of Income or the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.

In May 2005, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position Emerging Issues Task Force (“FSP EITF 00-19-1”), Application of EITF Issue No. 00-19 to Freestanding Financial Instruments Originally Issued as Employee Compensation . The FASB directed its staff to issue this FSP to clarify the application of EITF Issue No. 00-19, Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock, to freestanding financial instruments originally issued as employee compensation that can be settled only by delivering registered shares. This FSP clarifies that a requirement to deliver registered shares, in and of itself, will not result in liability classification for freestanding financial instruments originally issued as employee compensation. This clarification is consistent with the Board’s intent when FASB Statement No. 123R, Share-Based Payment , was issued. The guidance in this FSP shall be applied in accordance with the effective date and transition provisions of Statement No. 123R. The Company does not expect the application of FSP EITF 00-19-1 to have a significant effect on the Consolidated Statements of Income or the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.

Earnings Performance from Continuing Operations

Net Interest Income

Net interest income increased $132 million, or 7%, for the three months ended June 30, 2005, compared with the same period in 2004 and $290 million, or 8%, for the six months ended June 30, 2005, compared with the same period in 2004. The increase resulted primarily from growth in home equity loans and lines of credit and loans held for sale balances, which contributed to a 16% increase in average total interest-earning assets. A significant portion of the increase in net interest income that would otherwise have been realized from the growth in interest-earning assets was offset by compression in the net interest margin, which was 2.66% and 2.69% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005, down 20 and 19 basis points from 2.86% and 2.88% for the same periods in 2004. Compression in the net interest margin was due primarily to an increase in the cost of funds from wholesale borrowings, which outpaced the increase in yields from interest-earning assets.

Interest rate contracts, including embedded derivatives, held for asset/liability interest rate risk management purposes increased net interest income by $13 million and $31 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005, compared with a decrease of $68 million and $190 million for the same periods in 2004.

The improvement in total MSR risk management and amortization results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005, compared with the same periods in 2004, was due to a more benign interest-rate environment and the restructuring of the MSR risk management portfolio, which collectively reduced the earnings volatility associated with the MSR risk management program. During the latter part of 2004, the Company altered the composition of its MSR hedging and risk management instruments in order to reduce its exposure to basis risk by increasing its usage of derivatives and principal-only mortgage-backed securities (whose valuation changes are derived from fluctuations in mortgage interest rates), while reducing its reliance on LIBOR-based interest rate contracts. As these securities are non-derivative financial instruments, they cannot be designated as fair value hedging instruments under Statement No. 133 and thus represent economic hedges that are included in the above table as MSR risk management instruments.

The following tables reconcile the gain (losses) on investment securities that are designated as MSR risk management instruments to the gains and losses on investment securities that are reported within noninterest income during the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004:

In evaluating the MSR for impairment, loans are stratified in the servicing portfolio based on loan type and coupon rate. An impairment valuation allowance for a stratum is recorded when, and in the amount by which, its fair value is less than its gross carrying value. A reversal of the impairment allowance for a stratum is recorded when its fair value exceeds its net carrying value. However, a reversal in any particular stratum cannot exceed its valuation allowance. At June 30, 2005, loans in the servicing portfolio were stratified as follows:

These sensitivities are hypothetical and should be used with caution. As the table above demonstrates, the Company’s methodology for estimating the fair value of MSR is highly sensitive to changes in assumptions. For example, the Company’s determination of fair values uses anticipated prepayment speeds. Actual prepayment experience may differ and any difference may have a material effect on MSR fair value. Changes in fair value resulting from changes in assumptions generally cannot be extrapolated because the relationship of the change in assumption to the change in fair value may not be linear. Also, in this table, the effect of a variation in a particular assumption on the fair value of the MSR is calculated without changing any other assumption; in reality, changes in one factor may be associated with changes in another (for example, increases in market interest rates may result in lower prepayments, but credit losses may increase), which may magnify or counteract the sensitivities. Thus, any measurement of MSR fair value is limited by the conditions existing and assumptions made as of a particular point in time. Those assumptions may not be appropriate if they are applied to a different point in time. Refer to “Market Risk Management” for discussion of how MSR prepayment risk is managed and to Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements – “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the Company’s 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K for further discussion of how MSR fair value is measured.

The Company recorded gain from home mortgage loans and originated mortgage-backed securities, net of hedging and risk management instruments, of $171 million and $432 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005, compared with a net gain of $252 million and $364 million for the same periods in 2004. The decrease for the three months ended June 30, 2005 compared with the same period in the previous year was a result of interest rate fluctuations affecting the value of the derivative risk management instruments acquired to mitigate fair value changes in loans held for sale. During the second quarter of 2005, declining long-term interest rates lowered the value of these instruments, while the opposite trend occurred in the second quarter of 2004, causing an increase in value of these instruments. An increase in gain from home mortgage loans and originated mortgage-backed securities for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 primarily and more than offset the decline in value of the risk management instruments in those respective periods, which was driven by the sale of the Company’s Option ARM product. Strong customer demand and the enhanced liquidity of this product allowed the Company to sell a larger portion of these loans to the secondary market.

The fair value changes in loans held for sale and the offsetting changes in the derivative instruments used as fair value hedges are recorded within gain from mortgage loans when hedge accounting treatment is achieved. Loans held for sale where hedge accounting treatment is not achieved (“nonqualifying” loans held for sale) are recorded at the lower of cost or market value. This accounting model requires declines in the cost basis of the nonqualifying loans to be immediately recognized in earnings, but any increases in the value of these loans that exceed their original cost basis may not be recorded until the loans are sold. However, all changes in the value of derivative instruments that are used to manage the interest rate risk of the nonqualifying loans must be recognized in earnings as those changes occur. At June 30, 2005, the amount by which the aggregate fair value of loans held for sale exceeded their aggregate cost basis was approximately $270 million.

All Other Noninterest Income Analysis

The increases in depositor and other retail banking fees for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005, compared with the same periods in 2004, were largely due to increased debit card interchange and ATM-related income and higher volumes of checking fees that resulted from an increase in the number of noninterest-bearing checking accounts. The number of noninterest-bearing checking accounts at June 30, 2005 totaled approximately 7.4 million, compared with approximately 6.8 million at June 30, 2004.

The decrease in insurance income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005, compared with the same periods in 2004, was primarily due to a decline in mortgage-related insurance income, as

35




increases in loan prepayment levels outpaced the level of mortgage-related insurance generated from new loan volume during the first half of 2005.

During the first half of 2004, the Company terminated certain pay-fixed swaps hedging variable rate Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) advances, resulting in a loss of $90 million. This transaction reduced the Company’s wholesale borrowing costs.

Other income decreased during the three months ended June 30, 2005, compared with the same period in 2004. The difference was predominantly due to a $21 million revaluation loss in the current quarter on derivatives held for asset/liability interest-rate risk management purposes and a $32 million gain on the sale of multi-family loans in the second quarter of 2004. Other income increased during the six months ended June 30, 2005 primarily due to the sale of a real estate investment property in the first quarter of 2005, which resulted in a gain of $59 million.

Occupancy and equipment decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005, compared with the same periods in 2004, primarily due to a decrease in both depreciation expense and losses on disposal of assets. This decline was primarily the result of the Company’s successful efforts to improve the cost structure of the mortgage banking business.

Telecommunications and outsourced information services expense decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005, compared with the same periods in 2004 primarily due to negotiated reductions in vendor charges and lower costs due to the consolidation of information system platforms.

The increase in depositor and other retail banking losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005, was primarily due to an increase in debit card and check fraud.

(1)                  Short-term is defined as adjustable-rate loans that reprice within one year or less.

(2)                  At June 30, 2005, the total amount by which the unpaid principal balance (“UPB”) of Option ARM loans exceeded their original principal amount was $34 million, of which $26 million related to borrowers whose last payment made during the second quarter of 2005 did not fully cover accrued interest for the period, thereby increasing the UPB, and $8 million related to borrowers whose last payment made during the second quarter of 2005 was at least sufficient to cover the accrued interest for the period.

(3)                  Medium-term is defined as adjustable-rate loans that reprice after one year.

(4)                  Includes specialty mortgage finance loans which represents purchased subprime loan portfolios and certain mortgages originated by Long Beach Mortgage Company. Specialty mortgage finance loans were $20.17 billion and $19.18 billion at June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004.

(5)                  Represents loans to builders for the purpose of financing the acquisition, development and construction of single-family residences for sale and construction loans made directly to the intended occupant of a single-family residence.

Loans held in portfolio increased predominantly due to an increase in home equity loans and lines of credit and multi-family lending.

(1)       Substantially all custodial and escrow deposits reside in noninterest-bearing checking accounts.

The increase in noninterest-bearing retail checking deposits was driven by an increase in the number of individual and small business checking accounts. Interest-bearing checking, savings and money market deposits decreased as customers shifted from Platinum checking and savings accounts to time deposits. The increase in time deposits reflects renewed customer interest as a result of higher interest rates offered for these products. Wholesale deposits increased 28% from year-end 2004, due predominantly to an increase in institutional investor certificates of deposits.

Transaction accounts (checking, savings and money market deposits) comprised 73% of retail deposits at June 30, 2005, compared with 79% at year-end 2004. These products generally have the benefit of lower interest costs, compared with time deposits, and represent the core customer relationship that is maintained within the retail banking franchise. At June 30, 2005, deposits funded 57% of total assets, compared with 56% at December 31, 2004.

39




Borrowings

At June 30, 2005, the Company’s borrowings were largely comprised of advances from the FHLBs of San Francisco and Seattle and repurchase agreements. Advances from the San Francisco FHLB represented 85% of total FHLB advances at June 30, 2005. The mix of borrowing sources at any given time is dependent on market conditions.

(1)                  The efficiency ratio is defined as noninterest expense, excluding a cost of capital charge on goodwill, divided by total revenue (net interest income and noninterest income).

The increases in net interest income were primarily due to higher average balances of home loans and home equity loans and lines of credit, substantially offset by higher funding costs resulting from increasing short-term interest rates.

40




The increases in noninterest income were primarily due to growth in depositor and other retail banking fees that resulted from growth in the number of retail checking accounts, higher debit card interchange and ATM-related fees, and from an increase in advisory fee income earned from managing the Company’s proprietary mutual fund family. Noninterest-bearing retail checking accounts totaled approximately 7.4 million at June 30, 2005, an increase of 589,000, or 9%, from June 30, 2004.

The increases in noninterest expense were primarily due to higher employee compensation and benefits expense and occupancy and equipment expense. These increases are attributable to the continued expansion of the Group’s distribution network, which included the opening of 29 net new retail banking stores in the second quarter of 2005 and a total of 181 net new retail banking stores in the preceding twelve months.

(1)                  The efficiency ratio is defined as noninterest expense, excluding a cost of capital charge on goodwill, divided by total revenue (net interest income and noninterest income).

The decreases in net interest income were substantially due to higher funding costs resulting from increasing short-term interest rates, largely offset by increased interest income from higher average balances of investment securities held for MSR risk management and loans held for sale.

The increases in noninterest income were primarily due to improved performance of the MSR asset and the corresponding hedging and risk management instruments, which reflects the Company’s restructuring of the MSR risk management portfolio during the latter part of 2004.

The decreases in noninterest expense were primarily due to lower technology expense, occupancy and equipment expense, and employee compensation and benefits expense. These decreases resulted from the consolidation of various locations and functions, the conversion to a single loan servicing platform during the second half of 2004 and headcount reductions, which decreased to 12,534 at June 30, 2005 from 18,630 at June 30, 2004.

(1)                  The efficiency ratio is defined as noninterest expense, excluding a cost of capital charge on goodwill, divided by total revenue (net interest income and noninterest income).

The increase in net interest income in the second quarter of 2005 was mostly due to higher average balances of loans held for sale and multi-family loans, largely offset by higher funding costs resulting from the increasing short-term interest-rate environment.

The decrease in noninterest income in the second quarter of 2005 was mostly due to losses from economic hedging activity incurred by Long Beach Mortgage Company in the second quarter of 2005 and gains from the sale of securities and multi-family loans realized in the second quarter of 2004. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in trading securities income related to a positive residual valuation adjustment in the second quarter of 2005. The increase for the six months ended June 30, 2005 resulted primarily from a $59 million pretax gain on the sale of a real estate investment property during the first quarter of 2005.

The increases in noninterest expense were mostly due to higher employee compensation and benefits expense and loan servicing expense resulting from the growth in loan volume from Long Beach Mortgage Company. The number of employees in this segment increased by 316 during the preceding twelve months, predominantly due to the growth in Long Beach Mortgage Company of approximately 900 employees, primarily offset by workforce reductions associated with the decision to exit from certain business activities during the second half of 2004. These activities were determined to no longer be aligned with the Group’s strategic objectives.

The decreases in noninterest income were primarily due to losses related to a transfer from the Retail Banking and Financial Services Group to the Home Loans Group in the second quarter of 2005, when approximately $2.9 billion of Option ARM home loans previously designated as held for investment were moved to held for sale. This re-designation more closely aligns the credit risk and investment return profile of the remaining held-for-investment Option ARM loan portfolio with the Company’s current targets. This re-designation resulted in a loss of $79 million and was comprised of a lower of cost or market adjustment as well as the write-off of the inter-segment loan premiums associated with the loans.

The decreases in noninterest expense were primarily due to lower employee compensation and benefits expense and occupancy and equipment expense resulting from the Company’s ongoing expense management efforts. All severance and restructuring expenses that resulted from the Company’s 2004 cost containment initiative were charged to this unit.

The increase in average deposits was substantially due to growth in brokered certificates of deposits held by institutional investors.

Income from discontinued operations resulted from the sale of the Company’s subsidiary, Washington Mutual Finance Corporation, in the first quarter of 2004.

Risk Management

The Company is exposed to four major categories of risk: credit, liquidity, market and operational.

The Company’s Chief Enterprise Risk Officer is responsible for enterprise-wide risk assessment. The Company’s Enterprise Risk Management function oversees the identification, measurement, monitoring, control and reporting of credit, market and operational risks. The Company’s Treasury function is responsible for the measurement, management and control of liquidity risk. The Internal Audit function, which reports to the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, provides independent assessment of the Company’s compliance with risk management controls, policies and procedures.

Enterprise Risk Management works with the lines of business to establish appropriate policies, standards and limits designed to maintain risk exposures within the Company’s risk tolerance . Significant risk management policies approved by the relevant management committees are also reviewed and approved by the Audit and Finance Committees of the Board of Directors. Enterprise Risk Management also provides objective oversight of risk elements inherent in the Company’s business activities and practices and oversees compliance with laws and regulations.

Business lines are responsible for determining and executing business strategies that may give rise to one or more types of risk; their return on economic and other forms of capital is measured and compared to targets with the overall objective of ensuring that the risk/reward balance is acceptable. Business lines, Enterprise Risk Management and Treasury divide the responsibilities of conducting measurement and monitoring of the Company’s risk exposures. Risk exceptions, depending on their type and significance, are elevated to management or Board committees responsible for oversight.

44




Credit Risk Management

Credit risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in a borrower’s ability to meet its financial obligations under agreed upon terms and exists primarily in lending and derivative portfolios. The degree of credit risk will vary based on many factors, including the size of the asset or transaction, the credit characteristics of the borrower, the contractual terms of the agreement and the availability and quality of collateral.

Credit risk management is based on analyzing the creditworthiness of the borrower, the adequacy of underlying collateral given current events and conditions and the existence and strength of any guarantor support. Trends in these factors are dynamic and are reflected in the tables and commentary that follow.

Nonaccrual Loans, Foreclosed Assets and Restructured Loans

Loans are generally placed on nonaccrual status upon reaching 90 days past due. Additionally, loans in non-homogeneous portfolios are placed on nonaccrual status prior to becoming 90 days past due when payment in full of principal or interest is not expected. Management’s classification of a loan as nonaccrual or restructured does not necessarily indicate that the principal or interest of the loan is uncollectible in whole or in part. Nonaccrual loans and foreclosed assets (“nonperforming assets”) and restructured loans consisted of the following:

During the second quarter of 2005, total net charge-offs represented an annualized 0.07% of the portfolio for the third consecutive quarter. This reflected continued stability or improvement in a number of indicators that affect the risk of credit loss in the Company’s loan portfolio. These indicators included a stable and relatively low mortgage interest rate environment, continuing housing price appreciation in most of the Company’s markets and a lower national unemployment rate. In light of this stability, and the slight decline in the size of the specialty mortgage finance portfolio, the Company recorded a loan loss

46




provision of $31 million compared to total net charge-offs of $39 million incurred during the quarter. For portfolio risk management purposes, the Company transferred approximately $2.9 billion of Option ARM loans from the loan portfolio to loans held-for-sale. The Company determined that $29 million of credit loss was specifically related to these loans and, accordingly, this amount was applied against the allowance and is reflected in the table above within the ‘Other’ line item.

The allowance for loan and lease losses represents management’s estimate of incurred credit losses inherent in the Company’s loan and lease portfolios as of the balance sheet date. The estimation of the allowance is based on a variety of factors, including past loan loss experience, the current credit profile of borrowers, adverse situations that have occurred that may affect the borrowers’ ability to repay, the estimated value of underlying collateral, the interest rate climate as it affects adjustable-rate loans and general economic conditions.

In determining the allowance for loan and lease losses, the Company allocates a portion of the allowance to its various loan product categories based on an analysis of individual loans and pools of loans. The tools utilized for this determination include statistical forecasting models that estimate the default and loss outcomes based on an evaluation of past performance of loans in the Company’s portfolio and other factors as well as industry historical loss data (primarily for homogeneous loan portfolios). Non-homogeneous loans are individually reviewed and assigned loss factors commensurate with the applicable level of estimated risk.

As part of management’s effort to improve processes and support for the assessment of the adequacy of the allowance for loan and lease losses, management has tested and implemented an enhanced version of the behavioral model used to calculate losses inherent in the home loan portfolios. This implementation did not have a material effect on the size of the allowance for loan and lease losses as of June 30, 2005.

Refer to Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements – “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the Company’s 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K for further discussion of the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses.

90 or More Days Past Due

Loans held in portfolio that were 90 or more days contractually past due and still accruing interest were $89 million, $94 million and $85 million at June 30, 2005, March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004. The majority of these loans are either VA- or FHA-insured with little or no risk of loss of principal or interest.

Liquidity Risk Management

The objective of liquidity management is to ensure the Company has the continuing ability to maintain cash flows that are adequate to fund operations and meet its other obligations on a timely and cost-effective basis. The Company establishes liquidity guidelines for the parent holding company, Washington Mutual, Inc., as well as for its principal operating subsidiaries. The Company also maintains contingency liquidity plans that outline alternative actions and enable appropriate and timely responses under stress scenarios.

Washington Mutual, Inc.

Liquidity for Washington Mutual, Inc. (“the Parent Company”) is generated through its ability to raise funds through dividends from subsidiaries and in various capital markets such as unsecured debt and commercial paper.

One of Washington Mutual, Inc.’s key funding sources is from dividends paid by its banking subsidiaries. The Parent Company received dividends from its subsidiaries during the second quarter of

47




2005 and expects to continue to receive dividends in the future. Banking subsidiaries dividends may be reduced from time to time to ensure that internal capital targets are met. Various regulatory requirements related to capital adequacy and retained earnings also limit the amount of dividends that can be paid by the Parent Company’s banking subsidiaries. For more information on such dividend limitations, refer to the Company’s 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K, “Business – Regulation and Supervision” and Note 18 to the Consolidated Financial Statements – “Regulatory Capital Requirements and Dividend Restrictions.”

During 2003, Washington Mutual, Inc. filed two shelf registration statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission, registering a total of $7 billion in debt securities, preferred stock and depositary shares in the United States and in international capital markets. At June 30, 2005, the Company had $2.65 billion available for issuance under these registration statements.

Washington Mutual, Inc. also has a commercial paper program and a revolving credit facility that are sources of liquidity. At June 30, 2005, the commercial paper program provided for up to $1 billion in funds. In addition, the Company’s revolving credit facility of $800 million provides credit support for Washington Mutual, Inc.’s commercial paper program as well as funds for general corporate purposes. At June 30, 2005, Washington Mutual, Inc. had $472 million in commercial paper outstanding and the entire amount of the revolving credit facility was available.

The Parent Company’s senior debt and commercial paper was rated A and F1 by Fitch, A3 and P2 by Moody’s and A- and A2 by Standard and Poor’s.

Washington Mutual, Inc. maintains sufficient liquidity to cover all debt obligations maturing over the next twelve months.

Banking Subsidiaries

The principal sources of liquidity for the Company’s banking subsidiaries are customer deposits, wholesale borrowings, the maturity and repayment of portfolio loans, securities held in the available-for-sale portfolio and mortgage loans designated as held for sale. Among these sources, transaction deposits and wholesale borrowings from FHLB advances and repurchase agreements continue to provide the Company with a significant source of stable funding. During the first six months of 2005 , those sources funded 66% of average total assets. The Company’s continuing ability to retain its transaction deposit base and to attract new deposits depends on various factors, such as customer service satisfaction levels and the competitiveness of interest rates offered on deposit products. The Company continues to have the necessary assets available to pledge as collateral to obtain FHLB advances and repurchase agreements to offset any potential declines in deposit balances.

At June 30, 2005, the Company’s proceeds from the sales of loans were approximately $73 billion . These proceeds were, in turn, used as the primary funding source for the origination and purchases, net of principal payments, of approximately $82 billion of loans held for sale during the same period. Typically, a cyclical pattern of sales and originations/purchases repeats itself during the course of a period and the amount of funding necessary to sustain mortgage banking operations does not significantly affect the Company’s overall level of liquidity resources. At June 30, 2005, originations/ purchases of loans held for sale, net of principal payments, exceeded the proceeds from the sale of loans held for sale by approximately $9 billion.

The Company’s banking subsidiaries also raise funds in domestic and international capital markets to supplement their primary funding sources. In August 2003, the Company established a Global Bank Note Program that allows Washington Mutual Bank (“WMB,” f/k/a “Washington Mutual Bank, FA”) to issue senior and subordinated notes in the United States and in international capital markets in a variety of currencies and structures . WMB has $12.5 billion in senior notes available under this program and the

48




maximum aggregate principal amount of notes with maturities greater than 270 days from the date of issue may not exceed $7.5 billion.

Senior unsecured long-term obligations of WMB were rated A by Fitch, A2 by Moody’s and A by Standard and Poor’s. Short-term obligations were rated F1 by Fitch, P1 by Moody’s and A1 by Standard and Poor’s.

Non-banking Subsidiaries

Long Beach Mortgage has revolving credit facilities with non-affiliated lenders totaling $6 billion that are used to fund loans held for sale. At June 30, 2005, Long Beach Mortgage had borrowings outstanding of approximately $3 billion under these credit facilities.

In June 2005, Long Beach Mortgage launched Strand Funding LLC (“Strand”), a single-seller asset-backed extendible note facility, to augment its existing credit facilities. Strand has total funding capacity of $5 billion, and as of June 30, 2005 approximately $2 billion in notes were outstanding.

Off-Balance Sheet Activities

Asset Securitization

The Company transforms loans into securities, which are sold to investors – a process known as securitization. Securitization involves the sale of loans to a qualifying special-purpose entity (“QSPE”), typically a trust . The QSPE, in turn, issues securities, commonly called asset-backed securities, which are secured by future collections on the sold loans. The QSPE sells securities to investors, which entitle the investors to receive specified cash flows during the term of the security. The QSPE uses proceeds from the sale of these securities to pay the Company for the loans sold to the QSPE. These QSPEs are not consolidated within the financial statements since they satisfy the criteria established by Statement No. 140 , Accounting for the Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities . In general, these criteria require the QSPE to be legally isolated from the transferor (the Company), be limited to permitted activities, and have defined limits on the assets it can hold and the permitted sales, exchanges or distributions of its assets.

When the Company sells or securitizes loans, it generally retains the right to service the loans and may retain senior, subordinated, residual, and other interests, all of which are considered retained interests in the sold or securitized assets. Retained interests may provide credit enhancement to the investors and, absent the violation of representations and warranties, generally represent the Company’s maximum risk exposure associated with these transactions. Retained interests in securitizations were $1.83 billion at June 30, 2005, of which $1.57 billion have either a AAA credit rating or are agency insured. Additional information concerning securitization transactions is included in Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements – “Mortgage Banking Activities” in the Company’s 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Guarantees

The Company may incur liabilities under certain contractual agreements contingent upon the occurrence of certain events. A discussion of these contractual arrangements under which the Company may be held liable is included in Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements – “Guarantees.”

The Company’s federal savings bank subsidiaries are also required by Office of Thrift Supervision regulations to maintain tangible capital of at least 1.50% of assets. WMB and WMBfsb satisfied this requirement at June 30, 2005.

The Company’s broker-dealer subsidiaries are also subject to capital requirements. At June 30, 2005, all of its broker-dealer subsidiaries were in compliance with their applicable capital requirements.

On February 1, 2004, WMBfsb became a subsidiary of WMB. This reorganization was followed by the contribution of $23.27 billion of mortgage-backed and investment securities by WMB to WMBfsb on March 1, 2004. Due to the low risk weights assigned to these securities under the federal banking agency regulatory capital guidelines, their contribution to WMBfsb’s capital base substantially increased that entity’s risk-based capital ratios.

In 2003, the Company adopted a share repurchase program approved by the Board of Directors. Under the program, the Company is authorized to repurchase up to 100 million shares of its common stock, as conditions warrant. In the first quarter of 2005, the Company repurchased approximately 2.5 million shares of its common stock at an average price of $39.31. At June 30, 2005, the total remaining common stock repurchase authority under the 2003 program was approximately 40.9 million shares. Management may engage in future share repurchases as liquidity conditions permit and market conditions warrant.

Market Risk Management

Market risk is defined as the sensitivity of income, fair market values and capital to changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices and other relevant market rates or prices. The primary market risk to which the Company is exposed is interest rate risk. Substantially all of its interest rate risk arises from instruments, positions and transactions entered into for purposes other than trading. These include loans, MSR, securities, deposits, borrowings, long-term debt and derivative financial instruments.

The Company’s trading securities are primarily comprised of financial instruments, such as principal-only, adjustable-rate or fixed-rate mortgage-backed securities, used for MSR risk management activities. As such, the related interest rate risk of those financial instruments used for MSR risk management activities is considered within the sensitivity comparison, presented later within this section.

Interest rate risk is managed within a consolidated enterprise risk management framework that includes the measurement and management of specific portfolios (MSR and Other Mortgage Banking) discussed below. The principal objective of asset/liability management is to manage the sensitivity of net income to changing interest rates. Asset/liability management is governed by a policy reviewed and approved annually by the Board. The Board has delegated the oversight of the administration of this policy to the Finance Committee of the Board.

50




MSR Risk Management

The Company manages potential impairment in the fair value of MSR and increased amortization levels of MSR through a comprehensive risk management program. The intent is to offset the changes in MSR fair value and changes in MSR amortization above anticipated levels with changes in the fair value of risk management instruments. The risk management instruments include interest rate contracts, forward purchase commitments and available-for-sale and trading securities. The securities generally consist of fixed-rate debt securities, such as U.S. Government and agency obligations and mortgage-backed securities, including principal-only strips. The interest rate contracts typically consist of interest rate swaps, interest rate swaptions, interest rate floors and interest rate caps. The Company also enters into forward commitments to purchase mortgage-backed securities, which generally are agreements to purchase 15- and 30-year fixed-rate mortgage-backed securities.

The fair value of MSR is primarily affected by changes in prepayments that result from shifts in mortgage rates. Changes in the value of MSR risk management instruments due to changes in interest rates vary based on the specific instrument. For example, changes in the fair value of interest rate swaps are driven by shifts in interest rate swap rates and the fair value of U.S. Treasury securities is based on changes in U.S. Treasury rates. Mortgage rates may move more or less than the rates on Treasury bonds or interest rate swaps. This could result in a change in the fair value of the MSR that differs from the change in fair value of the MSR risk management instruments. This difference in market indices between the MSR and the risk management instruments results in what is referred to as basis risk.

During the latter part of 2004, the Company adopted an MSR risk management approach that reduces its exposure to basis risk. As a result, the amount of mortgage-based risk management products, such as forward commitments to purchase and sell mortgage-backed securities, was increased, while the amount of LIBOR-based products, such as interest rate swap contracts, decreased. Due to the inherent optionality in mortgage-based products, additional derivatives were also purchased to mitigate the optionality risk created by these products. This change in approach resulted in a significant increase in the total notional balance of derivative contracts that are designated as MSR risk management instruments.

The fair value of MSR decreases and the amortization rate increases in a declining interest rate environment due to the higher prepayment activity, resulting in the potential for loss of value and a reduction in net loan servicing income. During periods of rising interest rates, the amortization rate of MSR decreases and the fair value of MSR increases due to lower prepayment activity.

The Company manages the MSR daily and adjusts the mix of instruments used to manage MSR fair value changes as interest rates and market conditions warrant. The objective is to maintain an efficient and fairly liquid mix as well as a diverse portfolio of risk management instruments with maturity ranges that correspond well to the anticipated behavior of the MSR. For that portion of the MSR which qualifies for hedge accounting treatment, all changes in fair value of the MSR, even when the fair value is higher than amortized cost, will be recorded through earnings. MSR which do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment must be accounted for at the lower of cost or market value. The Company also manages the size of the MSR asset. Depending on market conditions and the desire to expand customer relationships, management may periodically sell or purchase additional servicing. Management may also structure loan sales to control the size of the MSR asset created by any particular transaction.

The Company believes this overall risk management strategy is the most efficient approach to managing MSR fair value risk. The success of this strategy, however, is dependent on management’s decisions regarding the amount, type and mix of MSR risk management instruments that are selected to manage the changes in fair value of the mortgage servicing asset. If this strategy is not successful, net income could be adversely affected.

51




Other Mortgage Banking Risk Management

The Company also manages the risks associated with its home loan mortgage warehouse and pipeline. The mortgage warehouse consists of funded loans intended for sale in the secondary market. The pipeline consists of commitments to originate or purchase mortgages to be sold in the secondary market. The risk associated with the mortgage pipeline and warehouse is the potential for changes in interest rates between the time the customer locks in the rate on the loan and the time the loan is sold.

The Company measures the risk profile of the mortgage warehouse and pipeline daily. As needed, to manage the warehouse and pipeline risk, management executes forward commitments, interest rate contracts and mortgage option contracts. A forward sales commitment protects against a rising interest rate environment, since the sales price and delivery date are already established. A forward sales commitment is different, however, from an option contract in that the Company is obligated to deliver the loan to the third party on the agreed-upon future date. Management also estimates the fallout factor, which represents the percentage of loans that are not expected to be funded, when determining the appropriate amount of pipeline risk management instruments.

Asset/Liability Risk Management

The purpose of asset/liability risk management is to assess the aggregate risk profile of the Company. Asset/liability risk analysis combines the MSR and Other Mortgage Banking activities with substantially all of the other remaining interest rate risk positions inherent in the Company’s operations.

To analyze net income sensitivity, management projects net income in a variety of interest rate scenarios, assuming both parallel and non-parallel shifts in the yield curve. These scenarios also capture the net interest income sensitivity due to changes in the slope of the yield curve and changes in the spread between Treasury and LIBOR rates. Additionally, management projects the fair market values of assets and liabilities under different interest rate scenarios to assess the risk exposure over longer periods of time.

The projection of the sensitivity of net interest income and net income requires numerous assumptions. Prepayment speeds, decay rates (the estimated runoff of deposit accounts that do not have a stated maturity) and loan and deposit volume and mix projections are the most significant assumptions. Prepayments affect the size of the loan and mortgage-backed securities portfolios, which impacts net interest income, and is also a major factor in the valuation of MSR. The decay rate assumptions also impact net interest income by altering the expected deposit mix and rates in various interest rate environments. The prepayment and decay rate assumptions reflect management’s best estimate of future behavior. These assumptions are derived from internal and external analysis of customer behavior.

The slope of the yield curve, current interest rate conditions and the speed of changes in interest rates all affect sensitivity to changes in interest rates. Short-term borrowings and, to a lesser extent, interest-bearing deposits typically reprice faster than the Company’s adjustable-rate assets. An additional lag effect is inherent in adjustable-rate loans and mortgage-backed securities indexed to the 12-month average of the annual yields on actively traded U.S. Treasury securities adjusted to a constant maturity of one year and those indexed to the 11th District FHLB monthly weighted average cost of funds index.

The sensitivity of new loan volume and mix to changes in market interest rate levels is also projected. Management generally assumes a reduction in total loan production in rising interest rate scenarios accompanied by a shift towards a greater proportion of adjustable-rate production. Conversely, the Company, generally assumes an increase in total loan production in falling interest rate scenarios accompanied by a shift towards a greater proportion of fixed-rate loans. The gain from mortgage loans also varies under different interest rate scenarios. Normally, the gain from mortgage loans increases in falling interest rate environments primarily from high fixed-rate mortgage refinancing activity. Conversely, the

52




gain from mortgage loans may decline when interest rates increase if management chooses to retain more loans in the portfolio.

In periods of rising interest rates, the net interest margin normally contracts since the repricing period of the Company’s liabilities is shorter than the repricing period of its assets. The net interest margin generally expands in periods of falling interest rates as borrowing costs reprice downward faster than asset yields.

To manage interest rate sensitivity, management first utilizes the interest rate risk characteristics of the balance sheet assets and liabilities to offset each other as much as possible. Balance sheet products have a variety of risk profiles and sensitivities. Some of the components of interest rate risk are countercyclical. Management may adjust the amount or mix of risk management instruments based on the countercyclical behavior of the balance sheet products.

When the countercyclical behavior inherent in portions of the Company’s balance sheet does not result in an acceptable risk profile, management utilizes investment securities and interest rate contracts to mitigate this situation. The interest rate contracts used for this purpose are classified as asset/liability risk management instruments. These contracts are often used to modify the repricing period of interest-bearing funding sources with the intention of reducing the volatility of net interest income. The types of contracts used for this purpose consist of interest rate swaps, interest rate corridors, interest rate swaptions and certain derivatives that are embedded in borrowings. Management also uses receive-fixed swaps as part of the asset/liability risk management strategy to help modify the repricing characteristics of certain long-term liabilities to match those of the assets. Typically, these are swaps of long-term fixed-rate debt to a short-term adjustable-rate, which more closely resembles asset repricing characteristics.

July 1, 2005 and January 1, 2005 Sensitivity Comparison

The table below indicates the sensitivity of net interest income and net income as a result of interest rate movements on market risk sensitive instruments. The base case used for this sensitivity analysis is similar to the Company’s most recent earnings plan for the respective twelve month periods as of the date the analysis was performed. The comparative results assume parallel shifts in the yield curve with interest rates rising 200 basis points in even quarterly increments over the twelve month periods ending June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005 and interest rates decreasing by 50 basis points in even quarterly increments over the first six months of the twelve month periods. The analysis also incorporates assumptions about balance sheet dynamics such as loan and deposit growth and pricing, changes in funding mix and asset and liability repricing and maturity characteristics. The projected interest rate sensitivities of net interest income and net income shown below may differ significantly from actual results, particularly with respect to non-parallel shifts in the yield curve or changes in the spreads between mortgage, Treasury and LIBOR rates.

Net interest income sensitivity as of July 1, 2005 approximated the sensitivity projected as of January 1, 2005 in the -50 basis point scenario and was slightly more sensitive in the +200 basis point scenario. The balance sheet size and mix vary from January 1, 2005 especially the impact for the +200 basis

53




point scenario. Earning asset balances in the current scenario experience more limited growth than in the prior analysis mainly due to greater expected decreases in the loans-held-for-sale portfolio. The average balances in this portfolio typically decline in rising interest rate environments; especially given that balances at June 30, 2005 were higher than most historical periods.

Overall, the increased net interest income sensitivity mainly results from projected balance sheet changes over the next year and assumes additional management balance sheet actions are not implemented. Actual balance sheet changes from December 31 st to June 30 th tended to reduce the volatility of the net interest margin. Balance sheet growth was mainly in adjustable-rate home equity and mortgage loans funded with increases in deposit and borrowing balances. These balance sheet changes resulted in a decline in the estimated net duration of earning assets and costing liabilities since year-end.

Net income sensitivity in the -50 basis point scenario declined since the prior analysis mostly due to the slight reduction in net interest income sensitivity as well as a slight reduction in noninterest income. Net income sensitivity in the +200 basis point scenario declined since January 1, 2005 mainly due to improvement in the performance of noninterest income.

These sensitivity analyses are limited in that they were performed at a particular point in time, are subject to the reliability of various assumptions used, including prepayment forecasts and discount rates, and do not incorporate other factors that would impact the Company’s overall financial performance in such scenarios, most significantly the impact of changes in gain from mortgage loans that result from changes in interest rates. In addition, not all of the changes in fair value may impact current period earnings. For example, the portion of the MSR that does not qualify for fair value hedge accounting treatment may increase in value, but the amount of the increase that is recorded in current period earnings may be limited to the recovery of the impairment reserve within each stratum. These analyses also assume that the projected MSR risk management strategy is effectively implemented and that mortgage and interest rate swap spreads are constant in all interest rate environments. These assumptions may not be realized. For example, changes in spreads between interest rate indices could result in significant changes in projected net income sensitivity. Projected net income may increase if market rates on interest rate swaps decrease by more than the decrease in mortgage rates, while the projected net income may decline if the rates on swaps increase by more than mortgage rates. For all of these reasons, the preceding sensitivity estimates should not be viewed as an earnings forecast.

Derivative Counterparty Credit Risk

Derivative financial instruments expose the Company to credit risk in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to such agreements. This risk consists primarily of the termination value of agreements where the Company is in a favorable position. Credit risk related to derivative financial instruments is considered and provided for separately from the allowance for loan and lease losses. The Company

60




manages the credit risk associated with its various derivative agreements through counterparty credit review, counterparty exposure limits and monitoring procedures. The Company obtains collateral from certain counterparties for amounts in excess of exposure limits and monitors all exposure and collateral requirements daily. The fair value of collateral received from a counterparty is continually monitored and the Company may request additional collateral from counterparties or return collateral pledged as deemed appropriate. The Company’s agreements generally include master netting agreements whereby the counterparties are entitled to settle their positions “net.” At June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, the gross positive fair value of the Company’s derivative financial instruments was $1.17 billion and $899 million. The Company’s master netting agreements at June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004 reduced the Company’s derivative counterparty credit risk by $563 million and $266 million. The Company’s collateral against derivative financial instruments was $206 million and $280 million at June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004. Accordingly, the Company’s credit risk related to derivative financial instruments at June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004 was $398 million and $353 million.

Operational Risk Management

Operational risk is the risk of loss resulting from human fallibility, inadequate or failed internal processes and systems, or from external events, including loss related to legal, reputation, public policy and strategic risks. Operational risk can occur in any activity, function, or unit of the Company.

Primary responsibility for managing operational risk rests with the lines of business. Each line of business is responsible for identifying its operational risks and establishing and maintaining appropriate business-specific policies, internal control procedures and monitoring tools for these risks. To help identify, assess and manage corporate-wide risks, the Company uses corporate support groups such as Legal, Compliance, Information Security, Continuity Assurance, Strategic Sourcing, and Finance. These groups assist the lines of business in the development and implementation of risk management practices specific to the needs of each business.

As the management of operational risk continues to evolve into a distinct risk discipline, the Company’s independent operational risk oversight function is working with the lines of business and corporate support functions to refine the existing corporate operational risk governance structure and framework. The objective of this effort is to achieve an integrated approach that emphasizes proactive management of operational risk using measures, tools and techniques that are risk-focused and consistently applied company-wide. This will further enhance management’s ability to aggregate and analyze operational risk data across business lines, processes and products, and improve communication of these risks to management and the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

In the ordinary course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries are routinely defendants in or parties to a number of pending and threatened legal actions and proceedings, including actions brought on behalf of various classes of claimants. In certain of these actions and proceedings, claims for substantial monetary damages are asserted against the Company and its subsidiaries. Certain of these actions and proceedings are based on alleged violations of consumer protection, banking and other laws.

During 2004, six plaintiffs filed lawsuits in the U.S. District Court, Western Division of Washington, alleging violations of Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), Rule 10b-5 thereunder and Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act. Each plaintiff purported to represent a class of purchasers of Washington Mutual, Inc., securities from April 15, 2003 through June 28, 2004, and the defendants included the Company and various of its senior executives. Subsequently, a stipulated Order was submitted to the court through which the six cases were consolidated into a single action, lead plaintiffs and lead plaintiffs’ counsel were appointed, and a schedule was set for further filings.

61




Pursuant to that schedule, lead plaintiffs filed their Consolidated Amended Complaint on March 1, 2005. In brief, the amended complaint alleges that in various public statements the defendants purportedly made misrepresentations and failed to disclose material facts concerning, among other things, alleged internal systems problems and hedging issues. The complaint also asserts that these and related problems were such that the Company’s financial statements were not in compliance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regulations.

The defendants’ motion to dismiss was filed on May 17, 2005, and briefing is to be completed by August 16, 2005. No oral argument has been set on defendants’ anticipated motion.

Refer to Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements – “Commitments, Guarantees and Contingencies” in the Company’s 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K for a further discussion of pending and threatened litigation action and proceedings against the Company.

(1)                  As defined in Item 503(d) of Regulation S-K.

(2)                  These computations are included herein in compliance with Securities and Exchange Commission Regulations. However, management believes that fixed charge ratios are not meaningful measures for the business of the Company because of two factors. First, even if there were no change in net income, the ratios would decline with an increase in the proportion of income which is tax-exempt or, conversely, they would increase with a decrease in the proportion of income which is tax-exempt. Second, even if there were no change in net income, the ratios would decline if interest income and interest expense increase by the same amount due to an increase in the level of interest rates or, conversely, they would increase if interest income and interest expense decrease by the same amount due to a decrease in the level of interest rates.
