PEOPLES UNITED FINANCIAL, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Unaudited)
NOTE 1. GENERAL
Peoples United Financial, Inc. is a Delaware corporation and the holding company for Peoples United Bank. On April 16, 2007, Peoples United Financial, Peoples United Bank and Peoples Mutual Holdings completed their second-step conversion from a mutual holding company structure to a fully-public stock holding company structure. See Note 2 for a further discussion of the second-step conversion. Peoples United Financial had not engaged in any business through March 31, 2007; accordingly, the financial information for periods prior to March 31, 2007 appearing in this Form 10-Q is that of Peoples United Bank. On June 6, 2007, Peoples Bank changed its name to Peoples United Bank. The name Peoples United Bank is used throughout this Form 10-Q to refer to the Bank both before and after the name change.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Peoples United Financial have been prepared to reflect all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations as of the dates and for the periods shown. All significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make significant estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, including the classification of revenues and expenses to discontinued operations.
Note 1 in Peoples United Banks audited consolidated financial statements included in Peoples United Financials Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, as supplemented by the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2007 and this report for the period ended June 30, 2007, includes a statement on Peoples United Financials significant accounting policies. Several estimates are particularly critical and are susceptible to significant near-term change, including the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of derivative financial instruments, and asset impairment judgments including other-than-temporary declines in the value of securities and the recoverability of goodwill and other intangible assets. These significant accounting policies and critical estimates are reviewed with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted or condensed. These statements should be read in conjunction with Peoples United Financials Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006. The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for the entire year or any other interim period. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform to the current period presentation.

Bank-Owned Life Insurance
Bank-owned life insurance (BOLI) represents the cash surrender value of life insurance policies purchased on certain management-level employees. Increases in the cash surrender value of these policies and death benefits in excess of the related invested premiums are included in non-interest income in the Consolidated Statements of Income, while insurance proceeds received are recorded as a reduction in the cash surrender value.
Employee Benefit Plans
Peoples United Financial maintains a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan that covers substantially all full-time and part-time employees who meet certain age and length of service requirements and who were employed by Peoples United Bank prior to August 14, 2006. Benefits are based upon the employees years of credited service and either the average compensation for the last five years or the average compensation for the five consecutive years of the last ten years that produce the highest average. Peoples United Financials funding policy is to contribute the amounts required by applicable regulations, although additional amounts may be contributed from time to time. In addition, Peoples United Financial maintains unfunded and nonqualified supplemental plans to provide pension benefits to certain senior officers.
New employees starting on or after August 14, 2006 are not eligible to participate in the defined benefit pension plan. Peoples United Financial will make contributions on behalf of these employees to a qualified defined contribution plan in an annual amount equal to 3% of the covered employees eligible compensation. Employee participation in this plan is restricted to employees who are at least 21 years of age and worked at least 1,000 hours in a year. Both full-time and part-time employees are eligible to participate as long as they meet these requirements.
Peoples United Financial also maintains an unfunded plan that provides retirees with optional medical, dental and life insurance benefits (other postretirement benefits). Peoples United Financial accrues the cost of these benefits over the employees years of service to the date of their eligibility for such benefits.

NOTE 2. SECOND-STEP CONVERSION
On April 16, 2007, Peoples United Financial, Peoples United Bank and Peoples Mutual Holdings completed their second-step conversion from a mutual holding company structure to a fully-public stock holding company structure. Peoples Mutual Holdings merged with and into Peoples United Bank, with Peoples United Bank as the surviving entity, and Peoples United Bank became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Peoples United Financial, Inc.
Peoples United Financial sold 172.2 million shares of common stock in a public offering at a price of $20 per share. Net proceeds from the stock offering totaled approximately $3.33 billion, after deducting approximately $110 million in offering costs. Peoples United Financial also exchanged 2.1 shares of its common stock for each share of Peoples United Bank common stock outstanding, except for those shares owned by Peoples Mutual Holdings and, accordingly, common share data for prior periods has been adjusted to reflect this exchange.
7
In April 2007, Peoples United Financial contributed 2.0 million shares of its common stock, with a fair market value of $40 million, and $20 million in cash to The Peoples United Community Foundation (included in non-interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income). Peoples United Financial contributed approximately $1.7 billion from the net proceeds of the stock offering to Peoples United Bank in the form of a capital contribution.
Additionally, approximately $217 million, an amount necessary to allow the Peoples United Financial Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the ESOP) to purchase approximately 10.5 million shares of Peoples United Financial common stock in the open market, was loaned to the ESOP. Compensation expense related to the ESOP is recognized monthly at an amount equal to the number of common shares committed to be allocated by the ESOP to participants accounts multiplied by the average fair value of the common stock during the reporting period. The difference between the fair value of the common shares committed to be allocated by the ESOP to participants accounts for the period and the cost of those common shares is recorded as an adjustment to either additional paid-in capital or retained earnings.

In the normal course of business, Peoples United Financial has various outstanding commitments and contingent liabilities that have not been and are not required to be reflected in the consolidated financial statements. In addition, in the normal course of business, there are various outstanding legal proceedings to which Peoples United Financial is a party.

NOTE 9. BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION
See Business Segment Results beginning on page 21 for segment information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006.
NOTE 10. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
On March 5, 2004, Peoples United Bank completed the sale of its credit card business. Peoples United Financial continues to generate recoveries from collection efforts on previously charged-off credit card accounts that were not included in the sale of the credit card business. These recoveries are included in income from discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statements of Income for periods subsequent to the sale. Recoveries, net of collection costs, totaled $0.7 million and $1.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, and $1.1 million and $2.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, respectively.
NOTE 11. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Peoples United Financial adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, effective January 1, 2007. As of the date of adoption, Peoples United Financials unrecognized income tax benefits totaled $1.0 million, which if recognized would affect its annualized income tax rate. Additionally, Peoples United Financial had accrued interest expense related to the unrecognized income tax benefits of $0.1 million. Peoples United Financial recognizes accrued interest related to unrecognized income tax benefits in interest expense in the Consolidated Statement of Income. Penalties, if incurred, would be recognized as a component of income tax expense.
Peoples United Financial files a consolidated U.S. Federal income tax return and files income tax returns in several states. Peoples United Financial does not have any foreign operations and therefore is not subject to income taxes in any foreign jurisdictions.
13
Peoples United Financial is no longer subject to either federal or state income tax examinations for years prior to 2003. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) commenced examinations of Peoples United Banks U.S. Federal income tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2005 during the fourth quarter of 2006. Peoples United Financial anticipates that the IRS will complete this examination by the end of the first quarter of 2008. To date, the IRS has not proposed any adjustments that would have a material impact on Peoples United Financials Consolidated Financial Statements.
Peoples United Financial does not anticipate that total unrecognized income tax benefits will change significantly due to the settlements of IRS audits and the expiration of statute of limitations prior to March 31, 2008.
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, which establishes a definition and measurement date for fair value and expands the disclosures regarding fair-value measurement. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Peoples United Financial is currently evaluating SFAS No. 157 to determine if it will have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115, which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Peoples United Financial is currently evaluating SFAS No. 159 to determine if it will have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
NOTE 12. PENDING ACQUISITION
On June 27, 2007, Peoples United Financial announced it had signed a definitive agreement to acquire Chittenden Corporation, a multi-bank holding company with headquarters in Burlington Vermont. At June 30, 2007, Chittenden Corporation had total assets of $6.9 billion, total loans of $5.1 billion and total deposits of $5.7 billion. Under the terms of the merger agreement, each share of Chittenden Corporation common stock will be converted into the right to receive either Peoples United Financial common stock, cash or a combination of both, with a total transaction value of approximately $1.9 billion. The transaction, which is expected to close in the first quarter of 2008, is subject to the approval of Chittenden Corporations shareholders and the receipt of various regulatory approvals.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliation to GAAP
In addition to evaluating Peoples United Financials results of operations in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), management routinely supplements this evaluation with an analysis of certain non-GAAP financial measures, such as the efficiency ratio, core deposits and purchased funds. Management believes such non-GAAP financial measures provide information useful to investors in understanding Peoples United Financials underlying operating performance and trends, and facilitate comparisons with the performance of other banks and thrifts.
Management utilizes core deposits and purchased funds as non-GAAP financial measures to supplement its analysis of Peoples United Financials business performance. Core deposits is a measure of stable funding sources and is defined as total deposits, other than municipal deposits (which are seasonally variable by nature) and escrow funds from Peoples United Financials recently completed stock offering. Purchased funds include borrowings and municipal deposits.
Although management believes that the above-mentioned non-GAAP financial measures enhance investors understanding of Peoples United Financials operating performance, these non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered an alternative to GAAP. The reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures from GAAP to non-GAAP is presented below.
The following tables provide reconciliations between GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures:

In addition to the above non-GAAP financial measures, management uses the efficiency ratio to monitor its operating efficiency compared to its peers. The efficiency ratio, which represents an approximate measure of the cost required by Peoples United Financial to generate a dollar of revenue, is the ratio of total non-interest expense (excluding goodwill impairment charges, amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, losses on real estate assets and nonrecurring expenses) (the numerator) to net interest income plus total non-interest income (including the fully taxable equivalent adjustment on bank-owned life insurance income, and excluding gains and losses on sales of assets, other than residential mortgage loans, and nonrecurring income) (the denominator). Peoples United Financial generally considers an income or expense to be nonrecurring if it is not similar to an income or expense of a type incurred within the last two years and is not similar to an income or expense of a type reasonably expected to be incurred within the following two years. Management considers the efficiency ratio to be more representative of Peoples United Financials ongoing operating efficiency, as the excluded items are generally related to external market conditions and non-routine transactions.
The following table summarizes Peoples United Financials efficiency ratio derived from amounts reported in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Second-Step Conversion and Name Change
On April 16, 2007, Peoples United Financial, Peoples United Bank and Peoples Mutual Holdings completed their second-step conversion from a mutual holding company structure to a fully-public stock holding company structure. Peoples Mutual Holdings merged with and into Peoples United Bank, with Peoples United Bank as the surviving entity, and Peoples United Bank became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Peoples United Financial, Inc. See Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a further discussion of the second-step conversion.
On June 6, 2007, Peoples Bank changed its name to Peoples United Bank. The name Peoples United Bank is used throughout this Form 10-Q to refer to the Bank both before and after the name change.
Financial Overview
Peoples United Financial reported net income of $13.5 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2007, compared to $32.9 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, for the year-ago period. Results for 2007 included a $60 million contribution to The Peoples United Community Foundation (included in non-interest expense), which had the effect of reducing net income by $39.6 million, or $0.13 per share. Net income totaled $47.1 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, compared to $67.7 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
Net interest income increased $35.9 million, or 37%, from the year-ago quarter and the net interest margin improved 41 basis points to 4.23%. These improvements reflect the investment of $3.3 billion in net proceeds from the second-step conversion in short-term investments, as well as the benefits from balance sheet restructuring activities completed during 2006. Compared to the second quarter of 2006, average earning assets increased $2.4 billion, reflecting increases of $3.2 billion in average short-term investments and $272 million in average loans, partially offset by a $1.0 billion decrease in average securities. Average funding liabilities decreased $195 million compared to the second quarter of 2006, as a $76 million increase in average total deposits was more than offset by declines in average borrowings and average subordinated notes of $228 million and $43 million, respectively. The net interest margin increased 29 basis points compared to the second quarter of 2006.
Total non-interest income increased $6.3 million, or 16%, compared to the year-ago quarter, reflecting increases in income from bank-owned life insurance (BOLI), net gains on sales of residential mortgage loans and fee-based revenue, and $4.0 million in net security losses in the year-ago quarter. Non-interest expense increased $69.1 million compared to the second quarter of 2006. Excluding the $60 million contribution discussed above, non-interest expense increased $9.1 million, or 11%, reflecting increases in compensation and benefits, advertising and promotion and other non-interest expense, including costs of approximately $2 million related to the rebranding of the Bank. The efficiency ratio improved to 53.3% in the second quarter of 2007 compared to 61.7% in the year-ago period.
19
The provision for loan losses in the second quarter of 2007 was $1.8 million compared to $0.2 million in the year-ago period. The provision for loan losses in the second quarter of 2007 reflected net loan charge-offs of $3.7 million (including a $3.6 million charge-off relating to one commercial banking loan that has been classified as non-performing since December 2006) and a $1.9 million decrease in the allowance for loan losses. The provision for loan losses in the second quarter of 2006 reflected net loan charge-offs of $0.2 million. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans was 0.80% at June 30, 2007, compared to 0.82% at June 30, 2006. Net loan charge-offs as a percentage of average total loans on an annualized basis were 0.16% in the second quarter of 2007 compared to 0.01% in the year-ago quarter.
Peoples United Financials total stockholders equity was $4.5 billion at June 30, 2007, a $3.2 billion increase from December 31, 2006, and as a percentage of total assets, stockholders equity was 32.6% at June 30, 2007, compared to 12.5% at December 31, 2006. The increases from December 31, 2006 reflect the net proceeds of $3.3 billion from the second-step conversion. Peoples United Banks total risk-based capital ratio was 35.1% at June 30, 2007, compared to 16.1% at December 31, 2006. The improvement from December 31, 2006 reflects a $1.7 billion capital contribution from Peoples United Financial.
20
Business Segment Results
Peoples United Financials operations are divided into two primary business segments that represent its core businesses, Commercial Banking and Consumer Financial Services. In addition, the treasury area is responsible for managing Peoples United Financials securities portfolio, short-term investments, wholesale funding activities, such as borrowings and the funding center. The income or loss for the funding center, which includes the impact of derivative financial instruments used for risk management purposes, represents the interest rate risk component of Peoples United Financials net interest income as calculated by Peoples United Financials funds transfer pricing model (FTP), to derive each operating segments net interest income.
Peoples United Financial uses an internal profitability reporting system to generate information by operating segment, which is based on a series of management estimates and allocations regarding funds transfer pricing, the provision for loan losses, non-interest expense and income taxes. These estimates and allocations, some of which can be subjective in nature, are continually being reviewed and refined. Any changes in estimates and allocations that may affect the reported results of any business segment will not affect the consolidated financial position or results of operations of Peoples United Financial as a whole. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform to the current period presentation.
FTP is used in the calculation of each operating segments net interest income, and measures the value of funds used in and provided by an operating segment. The difference between the interest income on earning assets and the interest expense on funding liabilities, and the corresponding FTP charge for interest income or credit for interest expense, results in net spread income. The provision for loan losses for the Commercial Banking and Consumer Financial Services segments is generally based on a five-year rolling average net charge-off rate for the respective segment.
Peoples United Financial allocates a majority of non-interest expenses to each business segment using a full-absorption costing process. Direct and indirect costs are analyzed and pooled by process and assigned to the appropriate business segment and corporate overhead costs are allocated to the business segments. Income tax expense is allocated to each business segment using a constant rate, based on an estimate of the consolidated effective income tax rate for the year.
21
Commercial Banking consists principally of commercial lending, commercial real estate lending and commercial deposit gathering activities. This segment also includes the equipment financing operations of Peoples Capital and Leasing Corp. (PCLC), as well as cash management, correspondent banking and municipal banking.

Commercial Banking income from continuing operations declined $0.7 million, or 7%, compared to the second quarter of 2006, reflecting an increase in non-interest expense, partially offset by increases in net interest income, fee-based revenues and other non-interest income. Net interest income increased $0.4 million, or 1%, reflecting a $365 million, or 9%, increase in average earning assets, essentially offset by narrower net spreads and a decline in commercial non-interest-bearing deposits. The $0.9 million increase in fee-based revenues reflects higher lending-related charges and fees. The increase in other non-interest income primarily reflects a $1.1 million increase in rental income on leased equipment. The $3.1 million, or 16%, increase in non-interest expense reflects increases in both direct expenses, due to continued growth in this business and a $0.8 million increase in amortization expense for leased equipment, and allocated expenses.
The increase in average earning assets compared to the second quarter of 2006 reflects increases of $226 million, or 34%, in PCLC loans, $79 million, or 5%, in commercial loans, and $55 million, or 3%, in commercial real estate loans. Average commercial non-interest-bearing deposits totaled $889 million in the second quarter of 2007, a $59 million, or 6%, decrease compared to the year-ago quarter, reflecting the current interest rate environment.
22
Consumer Financial Services includes, as its principal business lines, consumer deposit gathering activities, residential mortgage, home equity and other consumer lending (excluding the national consumer loan portfolio, which is reported in Other). In addition to trust services, this segment also includes brokerage, financial advisory services, investment management services and life insurance provided by Peoples Securities, Inc. (PSI), and other insurance services provided through R. C. Knox and Company, Inc. (RC Knox).

Consumer Financial Services income from continuing operations declined $4.9 million, or 22%, compared to the second quarter of 2006, reflecting a $5.6 million increase in non-interest expense and a $2.5 million decrease in net interest income.
The decrease in net interest income reflects the reduction in net spread interest income for residential mortgage loans and the shift in deposits from wider net spread deposits to time deposits with narrower net spreads. In the second quarter of 2007, average earning assets decreased $85 million, or 2%, reflecting a decrease of $87 million, or 2%, in average residential mortgage loans, partially offset by a $9 million, or 1%, increase in average home equity loans. Average consumer deposits totaled $7.9 billion, a 1% increase compared to the second quarter of 2006.
23
Net gains on sales of residential mortgage loans increased $0.3 million, or 50% in the second quarter of 2007, due to an increase of 107% in residential mortgage loan sales volume compared to the second quarter of 2006. Peoples United Financial is selling essentially all of its newly originated fixed- and adjustable-rate residential mortgages due to the low spreads on such loans in the current interest rate environment. The increase in non-interest expense reflects a $5.5 million increase in allocated expenses primarily due to the costs associated with ongoing infrastructure upgrades relating to deposit gathering activities.
24
Treasury encompasses the securities portfolio, short-term investments, wholesale funding activities, such as borrowings, and the funding center, which includes the impact of derivative financial instruments used for risk management purposes.

Treasurys income (loss) from continuing operations in the second quarter of 2007 compared to the 2006 period reflects a $4.2 million improvement in net interest income, an increase in BOLI income, and $4.0 million in net security losses in the second quarter of 2006.
The improvement in net interest income reflects the funding centers net spread loss declining by $6.5 million, partially offset by a $2.3 million increase in treasurys net spread loss. The increase in treasurys net spread loss reflects a $1.0 billion decline in average securities and virtually no net spread benefit from the increase in average short-term investments. The benefit from the increase in average short-term investments is included in Other as interest income from excess capital. The improvement in the funding centers net spread loss reflects the benefits from balance sheet restructuring activities completed during 2006 in addition to the rising interest rate environment. Securities with low FTP charges have been replaced with earning assets reflecting the current interest rate environment.
Average earning assets increased $2.2 billion from the year-ago quarter. Average short-term investments increased $3.2 billion, reflecting the investment of $3.3 billion in net proceeds from the second-step conversion, while average securities declined $1.0 billion resulting from the sale of $1.1 billion of securities during the second and third quarters of 2006. The debt securities portfolio totaled $23 million at June 30, 2007, compared to $23 million at March 31, 2007 and $848 million at June 30, 2006.
Average securities comprised 1% of average earning assets in the second quarter of 2007 compared to 11% in the year-ago quarter. Average short-term investments comprised 26% of average earning assets in the second quarter of 2007 compared to 1% in the year-ago quarter.

Included in period-end assets are cash, national consumer loans, premises and equipment, and other assets. The increase in net interest income in the second quarter of 2007 reflects the FTP credit generated by the significant increase in excess capital from the second-step conversion.

Net Interest Income
Net interest income and net interest margin are affected by many factors, including changes in average balances; interest rate fluctuations and the slope of the yield curve; sales of loans and securities; residential mortgage loan and mortgage-backed security prepayment rates; product pricing; competitive forces; the relative mix, repricing characteristics and maturity of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities; non-interest-bearing sources of funds; hedging activities; and asset quality.
Second Quarter 2007 Compared to Second Quarter 2006
The net interest margin improved 41 basis points to 4.23% compared to the second quarter of 2006. The increase in net interest margin reflects the investment of $3.3 billion in net proceeds from the second-step conversion in short-term investments, as well as the benefits from balance sheet restructuring activities completed during 2006. Net interest income increased $35.9 million, or 37%, reflecting a $43.2 million, or 30%, increase in total interest and dividend income, partially offset by a $7.3 million, or 15%, increase in total interest expense.
Average earning assets totaled $12.5 billion in the second quarter of 2007, a $2.4 billion, or 24%, increase from the second quarter of 2006, while the asset mix continued to shift. Average short-term investments increased $3.2 billion, reflecting the investment of $3.3 billion in net proceeds from the second-step conversion; average loans increased $272 million, or 3%; and average securities declined $1.0 billion, reflecting the sale of $810 million and $266 million of debt securities during the third and second quarters of 2006, respectively. As a result, average loans and average securities comprised 73% and 1%, respectively, of average earning assets in the second quarter of 2007, compared to 89% and 11%, respectively, in the 2006 period. Average short-term investments comprised 26% of average earning assets in the second quarter of 2007. The yield earned on the total loan portfolio was 6.27% this quarter, while the yield earned on securities and short-term investments was 5.30%, compared to 6.03% and 3.54%, respectively, in the year-ago quarter. Approximately 29% of the loan portfolio has floating interest rates (excluding adjustable-rate residential mortgage loans) compared to 30% in the year-ago quarter.
The total average commercial banking loan portfolio increased $360 million, or 9%, reflecting increases of $226 million, or 34%, in PCLC loans, $79 million, or 5%, in commercial loans and $55 million, or 3%, in commercial real estate loans. Included in average commercial loans and average commercial real estate loans were increases of $50 million, or 15%, and $67 million, or 34%, in the respective national credits portfolios.
29
Average residential mortgage loans decreased $87 million, or 2%, and average consumer loans decreased $1 million, or less than 1%. The decrease in average residential mortgage loans reflects Peoples United Financials decision to sell essentially all newly-originated residential mortgage loans and therefore expects to continue to see a decline in the average residential mortgage loan balance in the future until it resumes adding such loans to its portfolio. The composition of average consumer loans continues to reflect a shift in mix as growth of $9 million, or 1%, in home equity loans was more than offset by a $4 million, or 12%, reduction in other consumer loans and a $6 million, or 98%, reduction in unsecured national personal installment loans. National personal installment loans continue to run off as a result of a management decision to discontinue this type of lending several years ago. Given the competition from attractively-priced first mortgages and changes in consumer spending patterns, future growth in home equity lending may not continue at recent levels in the future.
The overall 27 basis point improvement in the yield on average earning assets in the second quarter of 2007 primarily reflects the investment of the net proceeds from the second-step conversion discussed above, increases in market interest rates and the ongoing shift in asset mix, including the impact of the security sales.
Average funding liabilities totaled $9.3 billion in the second quarter of 2007, a $195 million, or 2%, decrease compared to the year-ago quarter. Average core deposits decreased $64 million, or 1%, reflective of Peoples United Financials recent strategy of funding loan growth with proceeds from the repayment of securities and comprised 97% of average funding liabilities in the second quarter of 2007 compared to 96% in the year-ago period. Average non-interest-bearing core deposits decreased $64 million, or 3%, and average interest-bearing core deposits were flat (see below).
The 36 basis point increase to 2.40% from 2.04% in the rate paid on average funding liabilities primarily reflects the increase in market interest rates and the ongoing shift in deposit mix. The rates paid on average core deposits increased 51 basis points from the second quarter of 2006, reflecting increases of 90 basis points in time deposits and 11 basis points in savings and money market deposits in response to rising deposit interest rates. The change in the mix of average interest-bearing core deposits reflects a $386 million, or 12%, increase in higher-paying time deposits, offset by a $386 million, or 11%, decline in savings and money market deposits, reflecting customers preferences for deposit products with higher interest rates. Average time deposits comprised 39% of average total deposits in the second quarter of 2007, compared to 36% in the 2006 period. Further shifts in deposit mix to higher-rate time deposits will raise Peoples United Financials overall cost of funding.
30
Second Quarter 2007 Compared to First Quarter 2007
The net interest margin increased 29 basis points and net interest income increased $36.7 million compared to the first quarter of 2007. Total interest and dividend income increased $38.1 million, and was partially offset by a $1.4 million increase in total interest expense.
Average earning assets increased $2.8 billion, or 29%, reflecting a $2.9 billion increase in average short-term investments due to the investment of $3.3 billion in net proceeds from the second-step conversion, partially offset by decreases in average loans of $136 million, or 6% annualized, and average securities of $4 million. The decrease in average loans included decreases of: $162 million, or 17% annualized, in residential mortgage loans; $34 million, or 10% annualized, in home equity loans; $2 million, or 1% annualized, in commercial real estate loans, partially offset by increases of $34 million, or 9% annualized, in commercial loans and $28 million, or 13% annualized, in PCLC loans.
Average funding liabilities increased $174 million, or 8% annualized, reflecting increases of $87 million, or 4% annualized, in average core deposits and $86 million in average non-core deposits. The increase in average non-core deposits reflects an $85 million increase in average escrow deposits related to the stock offering (none at June 30, 2007).
The tables on the following pages present average balance sheets, interest income, interest expense and the corresponding average yields earned and rates paid for the three months ended June 30, 2007, March 31, 2007 and June 30, 2006, and the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006. The average balances are principally daily averages and, for loans, include both performing and non-performing balances. Interest income on loans includes the effect of deferred loan fees and costs accounted for as yield adjustments, but does not include interest on loans for which Peoples United Financial has ceased to accrue interest. The impact of Peoples United Financials use of derivative instruments in managing interest rate risk is also reflected in the tables, classified according to the instrument hedged and the risk management objective.

Total non-interest income increased $6.3 million, or 16%, compared to the second quarter of 2006 and $1.9 million, or 4%, from the first quarter of 2007. Excluding net security losses from the second quarter of 2006, total non-interest income would have increased $2.3 million, or 5%, compared to the year-ago quarter.
Revenues from service charges on deposit accounts for the second quarter of 2007 decreased $0.5 million, or 2%, compared to the year-ago quarter, and increased $1.5 million, or 8%, from the first quarter of 2007. The decrease compared to the year-ago quarter reflects increased debit card use in lieu of check writing, and more customers qualifying for free ATM network transactions and free checking. The increase in revenue from the previous quarter is due to seasonality.
Comparing the second quarter of 2007 to the second quarter of 2006, the $0.4 million increase in insurance revenue primarily reflects increased performance and profit sharing revenues due to changes in insurance company incentive programs. The $1.1 million decline in insurance revenue compared to the first quarter of 2007 reflects higher profit sharing income earned in the prior quarter.
36
The increase in brokerage commission reflects increased mutual fund and annuity volume. The $0.7 million increase in other fee-based revenues compared to the second quarter of 2006 reflects increases in commercial loan prepayment penalties and trust fees.
Net gains on sales of residential mortgage loans increased $0.3 million compared to the second quarter of 2006 and $0.2 million compared to the first quarter of 2007, reflecting Peoples United Financials decision to sell essentially all of its newly-originated residential mortgages in the current interest rate environment. Residential mortgage sales volume increased 107% compared to the second quarter of 2006.
BOLI income totaled $2.7 million ($4.1 million on a taxable-equivalent basis) in the second quarter of 2007, compared to $2.2 million ($3.4 million on a taxable-equivalent basis) for the year-ago quarter, and $2.4 million for the first quarter of 2007 ($3.7 million on a taxable-equivalent basis). Included in BOLI income is a death benefit of $0.6 million received in the current quarter.
The increase in other non-interest income compared to the second quarter of 2006 reflects a $1.1 million increase in rental income on leased equipment. In addition, other non-interest income in the second quarter of 2006 included a $0.7 million gain from the redemption of common stock received in conjunction with the MasterCard Incorporated initial public offering.

Total non-interest expense in the second quarter of 2007 increased $69.1 million compared to the second quarter of 2006. Excluding the $60 million contribution to The Peoples United Community Foundation, total non-interest expense in the second quarter of 2007 increased $9.1 million, or 11%, compared to the second quarter of 2006 and increased $7.6 million, or 9%, compared to the first quarter of 2007.
The efficiency ratio improved to 53.3% in the second quarter of 2007, compared to 61.7% in the year-ago quarter, reflecting a $39.2 million, or 28%, increase in operating revenue, partially offset by a $9.2 million, or 11%, increase in operating expenses. The increase in operating revenue reflects the increase in net interest income due to the investment of the net proceeds from the second-step conversion.
Compensation and benefits increased $4.6 million, or 9%, compared to the year-ago quarter, and $3.6 million, or 7%, compared to the first quarter of 2007. The increases primarily reflect $2.3 million of expense related to the newly established ESOP, normal merit increases and higher accruals for incentive compensation.
Occupancy and equipment increased $0.8 million, or 5%, compared to the second quarter of 2006 primarily reflecting higher rent-related expenses due to rate increases and additional branches.
Advertising and promotion increased $0.4 million, or 13%, compared to the second quarter of 2006, and $1.1 million, or 46%, compared to the first quarter of 2007. The increase primarily reflects costs associated with the rebranding of the Bank as a result of Peoples Bank changing its name to Peoples United Bank on June 6, 2007.
38
Other non-interest expense increased $2.7 million, or 28%, compared to the second quarter of 2006 and $2.5 million, or 26%, compared to the first quarter of 2007. The increases reflect higher insurance costs, increased amortization of equipment leased to commercial customers and regulatory assessment fees.
Discontinued Operations
Income from discontinued operations, net of income taxes, totaled $0.4 million for the second quarter of 2007, compared to $0.7 million for the year-ago quarter and $0.5 million for the first quarter of 2007.
Peoples United Financial continues to generate recoveries from collection efforts on previously charged-off credit card accounts that were not included in the sale of the credit card business. These recoveries are included in income from discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statements of Income for periods subsequent to the sale. Recoveries, net of collection costs, totaled $0.7 million for the second quarter of 2007, compared to $1.1 million for the comparable period in 2006 and $0.7 million for the first quarter of 2007. The level of recoveries is expected to continue to decline over the remainder of 2007 due to the aging and diminishing pool of charged-off accounts.

FINANCIAL CONDITION
General
Total assets at June 30, 2007 were $13.8 billion, an increase of $3.1 billion, or 29%, from December 31, 2006, primarily due to a $3.4 billion increase in short-term investments, partially offset by a decrease of $325 million in total loans. The increase in short-term investments reflects the net proceeds from the second-step conversion completed on April 16, 2007.
At June 30, 2007, liabilities totaled $9.3 billion, a $29 million decrease from December 31, 2006, as an $8 million increase in total deposits was offset by a $33 million decrease in other liabilities.
Total loans decreased $325 million, or 7%, on an annualized basis, from December 31, 2006 to June 30, 2007. The decrease in total loans from year-end 2006 was due to decreases of $347 million in residential mortgage loans, $63 million in consumer loans and $3 million in commercial real estate loans, partially offset by an increase of $88 million in commercial banking loans. The decrease in residential mortgage loans reflects Peoples United Financials decision to sell essentially all of its newly-originated residential mortgage loans in the current interest rate environment.
Non-performing assets totaled $18.4 million at June 30, 2007, a $4.3 million decrease from year-end 2006. The allowance for loan losses decreased $1.5 million to $72.5 million at June 30, 2007 compared to December 31, 2006, primarily reflecting reductions in the allowance for loan losses allocated to the consumer loan portfolio, residential mortgage loan portfolio and commercial real estate loan portfolio, partially offset by a net addition allocated to the commercial banking loan portfolio. At June 30, 2007, the allowance for loan losses as a percent of total loans was 0.80% and as a percent of non-performing loans was 405%, compared to 0.79% and 328%, respectively, at December 31, 2006.
Peoples United Financials total stockholders equity was $4.5 billion at June 30, 2007, a $3.2 billion increase from December 31, 2006, reflecting the net proceeds of $3.3 billion from the second-step conversion and net income of $47.1 million, partially offset by the purchase of common stock for the ESOP of $216.8 million and dividends paid of $54.2 million. As a percentage of total assets, stockholders equity was 32.6% at June 30, 2007, compared to 12.5% at December 31, 2006.
Peoples United Banks leverage capital ratio, and tier 1 and total risk-based capital ratios were 24.3%, 33.9% and 35.1%, respectively, at June 30, 2007, compared to 12.0%, 14.8% and 16.1%, respectively, at December 31, 2006. The increases from year end reflect a $1.7 billion capital contribution from Peoples United Financial.
40
Asset Quality
Peoples United Financial actively manages asset quality through its underwriting practices and collection operations.
The allowance for loan losses is established through provisions for loan losses charged to income. Losses on loans, including impaired loans, are charged to the allowance for loan losses when all or a portion of a loan is deemed to be uncollectible. Recoveries of loans previously charged off are credited to the allowance for loan losses when realized. Peoples United Financial maintains the allowance for loan losses at a level that is believed to be adequate to absorb probable losses inherent in the existing loan portfolio, based on a quarterly evaluation of a variety of factors. These factors include, but are not limited to: Peoples United Financials historical loan loss experience and recent trends in that experience; risk ratings assigned by lending personnel to commercial real estate, commercial and PCLC loans, and the results of ongoing reviews of those ratings by Peoples United Financials independent loan review function; an evaluation of non-performing loans and related collateral values; the probability of loss in view of geographic and industry concentrations and other portfolio risk characteristics; the present financial condition of borrowers; and current economic conditions. While Peoples United Financial seeks to use the best available information to make these evaluations, future adjustments to the allowance for loan losses may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions, results of regulatory examinations, further information obtained regarding known problem loans, the identification of additional problem loans and other factors.

Net loan charge-offs in the second quarter of 2007 totaled $3.7 million compared to $0.2 million in the second quarter of 2006. Commercial loan net charge-offs included the $3.6 million charge-off related to one commercial banking loan that had been classified as non-performing since December 2006.
Net loan charge-offs as a percentage of average total loans increased 15 basis points in the second quarter of 2007 compared to the year-ago period, reflecting the $3.6 million charge-off discussed above. The impact on this percentage of the increase in net loan charge-offs was partially offset by a $271 million, or 3%, increase in average loans from the second quarter of 2006. The very low level of net loan charge-offs in terms of absolute dollars and as a percentage of average loans is unlikely to be sustainable in the future.

Total non-performing assets decreased $4.3 million from December 31, 2006 and were 0.20% of total loans, REO and repossessed assets at June 30, 2007. Decreases in non-performing commercial loans and non-performing residential mortgage loans of $3.7 million and $2.5 million, respectively, were partially offset by an increase of $1.8 million in non-performing PCLC loans. The decrease in non-performing commercial loans since December 31, 2006 primarily reflects the $3.6 million charge-off related to one loan that had been classified as non-performing since December 2006.
The level of non-performing assets is expected to fluctuate in response to changing economic and market conditions, and the relative sizes of the respective loan portfolios, along with managements degree of success in resolving problem assets.

Liquidity
Liquidity is defined as the ability to generate sufficient cash flows to meet all present and future funding requirements at reasonable costs. Liquidity management addresses Peoples United Financials and Peoples United Banks ability to fund new loans and investments as opportunities arise, to meet customer deposit withdrawals and to repay borrowings and subordinated notes as they mature. Peoples United Financials, as well as Peoples United Banks liquidity positions are monitored daily by management. Therefore, the Asset and Liability Management Committee (ALCO) of Peoples United Bank has been authorized by the Board of Directors of Peoples United Financial to set guidelines to ensure maintenance of prudent levels of liquidity for Peoples United Financial as well as for Peoples United Bank. ALCO reports to the Treasury and Finance Committee of the Board of Directors of Peoples United Bank.
Asset liquidity is provided by: cash; short-term investments; proceeds from security sales, maturities and principal repayments; and proceeds from scheduled principal collections, prepayments and sales of loans. In addition, certain securities may be used to collateralize borrowings under repurchase agreements. The Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, on page 4, present data on cash provided by and used in Peoples United Financials operating, investing and financing activities. At June 30, 2007, Peoples United Financials liquid assets included $1.4 billion in securities purchased under agreements to resell. Peoples United Banks liquid assets included $2.6 billion in cash and cash equivalents, $26 million in trading account securities and $42 million in debt securities available for sale. Securities available for sale with a total fair value of $22 million at June 30, 2007 were pledged as collateral for public deposits and for other purposes.
Liability liquidity is measured by Peoples United Financials and Peoples United Banks ability to obtain core deposits and purchased funds at cost-effective rates that are diversified with respect to markets and maturities. Core deposits, which are considered the most stable source of liability liquidity, totaled $9.1 billion at June 30, 2007, compared to $9.0 billion at December 31, 2006 (representing 64% and 86% of total funding at the respective dates). While core deposits have remained essentially flat since year end, the relative percentage mix has declined due the substantial increase in stockholders equity with the net proceeds from the second-step conversion. Purchased funds can be used from time to time to diversify Peoples United Financials funding mix and to support asset growth. Purchased funds totaled $37 million at June 30, 2007, compared to $47 million at December 31, 2006 (representing 0.3% and 0.5% of total funding at the respective dates).
44
Peoples United Banks current sources of purchased funds include: federal funds purchased, advances from the FHLB of Boston and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, municipal deposits and repurchase agreements. At June 30, 2007, Peoples United Banks borrowing limit from FHLB and Federal Reserve Bank advances, and repurchase agreements was $3.4 billion, based on the level of qualifying collateral available for these borrowing sources and in addition, Peoples United Bank had unsecured borrowing capacity of $1.1 billion.
At June 30, 2007, Peoples United Bank had outstanding commitments to originate loans totaling $848 million and approved, but unused, lines of credit extended to customers totaling $2.5 billion.
The sources of liquidity discussed above are deemed by management to be sufficient to fund outstanding loan commitments and to meet Peoples United Financials and Peoples United Banks other obligations.
45
Capital
Peoples United Financials total stockholders equity was $4.5 billion at June 30, 2007, a $3.2 billion increase compared to $1.3 billion at December 31, 2006. This increase primarily reflects the net proceeds of $3.3 billion from the second-step conversion, net income of $47.1 million, and a common stock contribution with a fair value of $40 million to The Peoples United Community Foundation, partially offset by the purchase of common stock for the ESOP totaling $216.8 million, dividends paid of $54.2 million and a $1.1 million increase in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss (AOCL) since December 31, 2006. The increase in AOCL reflects a $2.7 million increase in the after-tax net unrealized loss on derivatives accounted for as cash flow hedges, partially offset by a $1.6 million reduction in the net actuarial loss, prior service costs and transition obligation on pension and other postretirement benefit plans. Stockholders equity equaled 32.6% of total assets at June 30, 2007 and 12.5% at December 31, 2006.
Peoples United Banks tangible capital ratio was 24.3% at June 30, 2007, compared to the minimum ratio of 1.5% generally required by the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS). Peoples United Bank is also subject to the OTSs risk-based capital regulations, which require minimum ratios of leverage capital and total risk-based capital of 4.0% and 8.0%, respectively. Peoples United Bank satisfied these requirements at June 30, 2007 with ratios of 24.3% and 35.1%, respectively, compared to 12.0% and 16.1%, respectively, at December 31, 2006. Peoples United Banks regulatory capital ratios exceeded the OTSs numeric criteria for classification as a well capitalized institution at June 30, 2007.
The following summary compares Peoples United Banks regulatory capital amounts and ratios as of June 30, 2007 to the OTS requirements for classification as a well-capitalized institution and for minimum capital adequacy. Peoples United Banks risk-weighted total assets, as defined, totaled $8.9 billion at June 30, 2007.

Market Risk Management
Market risk is the risk of loss to earnings, capital and the fair market values of certain assets and liabilities resulting from changes in interest rates, equity prices and foreign currency exchange rates.
Interest Rate Risk
For Peoples United Bank, the only relevant market risk at this time is interest rate risk (IRR), which is the potential exposure to earnings or capital that may result from changes in interest rates. Peoples United Bank actively manages its IRR to achieve a balance between risk, earnings volatility and capital preservation. ALCO has primary responsibility for managing Peoples United Banks IRR. To evaluate Peoples United Banks IRR profile, ALCO monitors economic conditions, interest rate trends, liquidity levels and capital ratios. Management also reviews assumptions periodically for projected customer and competitor behavior, in addition to the expected repricing characteristics and cash flow projections for assets, liabilities and off-balance-sheet financial instruments. Actual conditions may vary significantly from Peoples United Banks assumptions. Management evaluates the impact of IRR on Income at Risk using an earnings simulation model to project earnings under multiple interest rate environments over a one-year time horizon resulting in a quantification of IRR. Income at Risk includes significant interest rate sensitive income sources, such as net interest income, gains on sales of residential mortgage loans and BOLI income.
The earnings projections are based on a static balance sheet and estimates of pricing levels for Peoples United Banks products under multiple scenarios intended to reflect instantaneous yield curve shocks. Peoples United Bank estimates its base case Income at Risk using current interest rates. Internal guidelines regarding IRR simulation specify that for instantaneous parallel shifts of the yield curve, estimated Income at Risk for the subsequent one-year period should not decline by more than: 10% for a 100 basis point shift; 15% for a 200 basis point shift; and 20% for a 300 basis point shift.
47
The following table shows the estimated percentage increase (decrease) in Peoples United Banks Income at Risk over a one-year simulation period beginning June 30, 2007. Income at Risk for a 300 basis point decline in interest rates falls outside the internal guidelines, reflecting Peoples United Banks current investment decision to invest the net proceeds from the second-step conversion in short-term investments.
Rate Change (basis points) |

+100 | 7.02 | ||
-100 | (6.85 | ) | |
-200 | (15.01 | ) | |
-300 | (24.34 | ) |
While Income at Risk simulation identifies earnings exposure over a relatively short time horizon, Market Value of Equity (MVE) takes a long-term economic perspective when quantifying IRR. MVE identifies possible margin behavior over a longer time horizon and is therefore a valuable complement of interest rate risk management. Base case MVE is calculated by estimating the net present value of all future cash flows from existing assets and liabilities using current interest rates. The base case scenario assumes that future interest rates remain unchanged.
Internal guidelines limit the exposure of a decrease in MVE resulting from instantaneous parallel shifts of the yield curve in the following manner: for 100 basis points 10% of base case MVE; for 200 basis points 15% of base case MVE; and for 300 basis points 20% of base case MVE.
The following table shows the estimated percentage decrease in Peoples United Banks MVE, assuming various shifts in interest rates.

48
Management believes Peoples United Banks interest rate risk position at June 30, 2007 represents an acceptable level of risk. This is true even in the scenario where interest rates decline by 300 basis points, resulting in an Income at Risk change falling outside of internal guidelines, due to the extreme flexibility inherent in Peoples United Banks current investment posture, combined with the extremely low likelihood of occurrence of that scenario. However, given the uncertainty of the magnitude, timing and direction of future interest rate movements and the shape of the yield curve, actual results may vary from those predicted by Peoples United Banks models.
Foreign Currency Risk
Foreign exchange forward contracts are commitments to buy or sell foreign currency on a future date at a contractual price. Peoples United Bank uses these instruments on a limited basis to eliminate its exposure to fluctuations in currency exchange rates on certain of its commercial loans that are denominated in foreign currencies. Gains and losses on foreign exchange contracts substantially offset the translation gains and losses on the related loans.
Derivative Financial Instruments
Peoples United Bank uses derivative financial instruments, including interest rate swaps and interest rate floors, as components of its IRR management. Peoples United Bank has written guidelines that have been approved by its Board of Directors and ALCO governing the use of these financial instruments, including approved counterparties and risk limits, and controls the credit risk of these instruments through collateral, credit approvals and monitoring procedures. At June 30, 2007, each of Peoples United Banks counterparties had an investment grade credit rating from the major rating agencies and is specifically approved up to a maximum credit exposure. Peoples United Banks credit exposure on its derivative contracts, representing those contracts with net positive fair values including the effect of bilateral netting, amounted to $5.8 million at June 30, 2007 and $11.4 million at December 31, 2006. Derivative financial instruments have been used for market risk management purposes (principally interest rate risk) and not for trading or speculative purposes.
Peoples United Bank is currently using interest rate floors and interest rate swaps to manage IRR associated with certain interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Interest rate floors, which are accounted for as cash flow hedges, are used to partially manage Peoples United Banks exposure to a decrease in interest income on certain floating-rate commercial loans resulting from declines in certain interest rates. Interest rate swaps, which are accounted for as fair value hedges, are used to match more closely the repricing of certain commercial real estate loans and the short-term funding associated with these loans.
