Wells Fargo & Company (NYSE:WFC) reported diluted earnings per common share of
$3.36 for 2012, up 19 percent from $2.82 in 2011. Full year net income was
$18.9 billion, compared with $15.9 billion in 2011. For fourth quarter 2012,
net income was $5.1 billion, or $0.91 per share, compared with $4.1 billion,
or $0.73 per share, for fourth quarter 2011.
“2012 was an outstanding year for Wells Fargo,” said Chairman and CEO John
Stumpf. “We saw the continued benefits of our diversified business model and
reported record full year and fourth quarter earnings, robust deposit and
solid loan growth, and strong performance across our business units. The
Company’s success is due to our more than 265,000 team members who remained
focused on our customers and on our vision to satisfy all of our customers’
financial needs.
“This time last year, I said we would benefit from the many opportunities we
saw for 2012 – and we did just that. From growing revenue, making strategic
acquisitions and achieving efficiency improvements, I am extremely pleased
with our 2012 performance. We also returned more capital to our shareholders
through common stock dividends and common stock repurchases. We are very well
positioned for and look forward to 2013, as Wells Fargo continues to work hard
to contribute to a growing U.S. economy by doing what we do best: helping
customers succeed financially.”
Chief Financial Officer Tim Sloan added, “The Company’s underlying results
were driven by solid loan growth, improved credit quality, and continued
success in improving efficiency. While our fourth quarter included some
noteworthy items, we achieved strong returns on average assets and equity of
1.46 percent and 13.35 percent, respectively. We are very pleased with the
Company’s outstanding performance despite the challenges our industry faced
during this past year, including continued low interest rates and elevated
unemployment. Our balanced business model helped us deliver strong results
throughout these challenging times and should provide us the opportunity to
continue to deliver value to our shareholders in the coming year.”
Revenue
Revenue for the year was $86.1 billion, up 6 percent from $80.9 billion in
2011. Revenue in the fourth quarter increased 7 percent to $21.9 billion, up
$1.3 billion from a year ago. On a linked-quarter basis, revenue growth
accelerated 14 percent (annualized), up $735 million. Growth in noninterest
income was generated across our diversified businesses and net interest income
was relatively flat linked quarter. Businesses generating linked-quarter,
double-digit annualized revenue growth included capital finance, capital
markets, commercial banking, commercial real estate, corporate banking, credit
card, mortgage, and wealth management.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income in the fourth quarter decreased $249 million, or 2
percent, from a year ago, and was down slightly on a linked-quarter basis to
$10.6 billion in fourth quarter. Income from our loan portfolios rose slightly
from prior quarter, reflecting both organic growth in consumer and commercial
loans and the retention of $9.7 billion in high-quality, conforming first real
estate mortgages in the fourth quarter. While the available-for-sale (AFS)
securities portfolio balance was essentially flat linked-quarter, income
continued to be impacted by runoff in federal agency mortgage-backed
securities (MBS) and a decision to replace that runoff with shorter duration
securities. Interest income from the AFS securities portfolio declined by $69
million. Interest income from the mortgage warehouse was down $63 million in
the quarter as the size of the warehouse declined in line with lower
origination volume.
The decline in interest income was partially offset by a $49 million decrease
in interest expense, reflecting the benefit of continued reductions in deposit
and long term funding costs.
On a linked-quarter basis, the Company’s net interest margin declined 10 basis
points to 3.56 percent. The primary driver of the decline, approximately 8
basis points, was strong deposit growth of $30 billion in the quarter (12
percent annualized). This inflow of deposits caused cash and short term
investments to increase, and while these inflows diluted net interest margin,
they were essentially neutral to net interest income. The ongoing repricing of
the balance sheet in the current low interest rate environment resulted in
approximately 5 basis points of additional net interest margin compression.
This was partially offset by the benefit of slightly higher income from
variable sources, such as fee income and periodic dividends, which increased 3
basis points on a linked-quarter basis.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income of $11.3 billion increased $1.6 billion, or 16 percent,
from fourth quarter 2011 and increased 28 percent (annualized) from third
quarter 2012. The linked-quarter increase reflects growth in service charges,
trust and investment fees, and mortgage banking. Noninterest income was also
bolstered by above-average equity gains, driven by gains in our private equity
businesses.
Mortgage banking noninterest income was $3.1 billion, up $261 million from
third quarter 2012, on $125 billion of originations, compared with $139
billion of originations in third quarter. During the fourth quarter, the
Company retained on balance sheet 1-4 family conforming first mortgage loans,
forgoing approximately $340 million of fee revenue that could have been
generated had the loans been originated for sale during the quarter along with
other agency conforming loan production. The Company provided $379 million for
mortgage loan repurchase losses, compared with $462 million in third quarter
(included in net gains from mortgage loan origination/sales activities). Net
mortgage servicing rights (MSRs) results were $220 million, up from
$142 million in third quarter 2012, due primarily to MSRs valuation
adjustments made in the third quarter for increased servicing and foreclosure
costs. The ratio of MSRs to related loans serviced for others was 67 basis
points and the average note rate on the servicing portfolio was 4.77 percent.
The unclosed pipeline at December 31, 2012 was $81 billion, compared with $97
billion at September 30, 2012.
The Company had net unrealized securities gains of $11.9 billion at December
31, 2012, compared with $12.4 billion at September 30, 2012. Period-end AFS
securities balances increased $5.8 billion.
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense increased $388 million, or 3 percent, from fourth quarter
2011 and increased $784 million from third quarter 2012. The increase in
noninterest expense from the prior quarter was due primarily to $644 million
in operating losses from an incremental accrual to fully reserve for the costs
associated with the IFR settlement (discussed below) and additional
remediation-related costs, and $250 million for a contribution to the Wells
Fargo Foundation. The Company continued to operate within its targeted
efficiency ratio range of 55 to 59 percent, with an efficiency ratio of
58.8 percent in fourth quarter 2012, compared with 57.1 percent in third
quarter 2012 and 60.7 percent in fourth quarter 2011. The Company is well
positioned to remain within this targeted range in 2013.
Independent Foreclosure Review Settlement
On January 7, 2013, the Company announced that, along with nine other mortgage
servicers, it entered into settlement agreements with the Office of the
Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) and the Federal Reserve Board (FRB) that
would end their IFR programs created by Article VII of an April 2011
Interagency Consent Order and replace it with an accelerated remediation
process.
In aggregate, the servicers have agreed to make direct, cash payments of $3.3
billion and to provide $5.2 billion in additional assistance, such as loan
modifications, to consumers. Wells Fargo’s portion of the cash settlement is
$766 million, which is based on the proportionate share of Wells
Fargo-serviced loans in the overall IFR population. Wells Fargo recorded a
pre-tax charge of $644 million in fourth quarter 2012 to fully reserve for its
cash payment portion of the settlement and additional remediation-related
costs. The Company also committed an additional $1.2 billion to foreclosure
prevention actions. This commitment did not result in any charge as the
Company believes that this commitment is covered through the existing
allowance for credit losses and the nonaccretable difference relating to the
purchased credit-impaired loan portfolios. With this settlement, the Company
will no longer incur costs associated with the independent foreclosure
reviews, which had recently approximated $125 million per quarter for external
consultants and additional staffing.
“In addition to the benefit to our customers, we are very pleased to have put
this legacy issue behind us and to have removed the future costs associated
with independent foreclosure reviews,” said Stumpf.
Taxes
Our effective tax rate was 27.4 percent for the fourth quarter 2012, compared
with 31.3 percent for the fourth quarter 2011 and 32.5 percent for the year
ended December 31, 2012, compared with 31.9 percent for the year ended
December 31, 2011. The lower tax rate in the fourth quarter 2012 was primarily
attributable to the realization, for tax purposes, of a discrete $332 million
benefit resulting from the surrender of previously written-down Wachovia life
insurance investment.
Loans
Total loans were $799.6 billion at December 31, 2012, up $16.9 billion from
September 30, 2012, including double-digit annualized loan growth in
commercial banking, credit card, mortgage, and retail brokerage. Included in
the total loan growth was $9.7 billion of 1-4 family conforming first mortgage
production retained on the balance sheet. The growth in core loan portfolios
more than offset the reduction in the non-strategic/liquidating portfolios,
which declined $4.1 billion in the quarter.
Average total loans of $787.2 billion in fourth quarter 2012 grew $18.6
billion, or 2 percent, from fourth quarter 2011. On a linked-quarter basis,
average loans increased $10.5 billion, or 5 percent (annualized). Average
commercial and commercial real estate loans increased $10.8 billion, or 3
percent, from fourth quarter 2011 and increased $1.6 billion, or 2 percent
(annualized), on a linked-quarter basis. Average consumer loans increased $7.8
billion, or 2 percent, from a year ago and increased $8.9 billion, or 8
percent (annualized), on a linked-quarter basis.

Deposits
Average core deposits of $928.8 billion for fourth quarter 2012 increased
$63.9 billion, or 7 percent, from fourth quarter 2011. On a linked-quarter

Average mortgage escrow deposits were $42.2 billion for fourth quarter 2012,
up $7.2 billion from fourth quarter 2011 and up $2.2 billion on a
linked-quarter basis. Excluding mortgage escrow balances, total average core
deposits grew 7 percent from fourth quarter 2011 and 15 percent (annualized)
on a linked-quarter basis. Average core checking and savings deposits were 94
percent of average core deposits, up from 93 percent a year ago. The average
deposit cost for fourth quarter 2012 was 16 basis points, compared with
18 basis points in third quarter 2012. Average core deposits were 118 percent
of average loans, up slightly from third quarter 2012.
Capital
Capital increased in the fourth quarter, with Tier 1 common equity reaching
$109.1 billion under Basel I, or 10.12 percent of risk-weighted assets, up
from 9.46 percent in fourth quarter 2011 and 9.92 percent in third quarter
2012. Under current Basel III proposals, the Tier I common equity ratio was an
estimated 8.18 percent^8. In the fourth quarter, the Company purchased
approximately 42 million shares of its common stock and an additional
estimated 6 million shares through a forward repurchase transaction expected
to settle in first quarter 2013, and paid a quarterly common stock dividend of
$0.22 per share.

capital rules proposed by federal banking agencies in notices of proposed

Credit Quality
“Wells Fargo's risk profile continued to improve in 2012,” said Chief Risk
Officer Mike Loughlin. “Credit losses were $9.0 billion in 2012, compared with
$11.3 billion in 2011—an improvement of $2.3 billion or 20 percent. In
addition, year-over-year, our nonperforming assets declined by $1.5 billion or
6 percent, our consumer 30 – 89 days past due was down $1.8 billion or 22
percent, our liquidating portfolios declined by $17.8 billion or 16 percent,
and the Pick-a-Pay PCI portfolio continued to perform better than we estimated
at the time we acquired Wachovia. Reflecting continued, improved credit
performance, we released $250 million in loan loss reserves in the fourth
quarter. Absent significant deterioration in the economy, we continue to
expect future reserve releases in 2013, though at a lower level than in 2012,”
said Loughlin.
Reported credit metrics for the quarter were affected by the completion of
implementation of the OCC guidance issued in third quarter 2012. In the fourth
quarter, we applied the updated OCC guidance to previously modified loans to
consumers who have been discharged in bankruptcy. Fourth quarter adjustments
associated with the OCC guidance affected nonperforming loans and net
charge-offs as follows^9:
* $394 million reclassification of performing consumer loans to nonaccrual
status
* $321 million increase in net loan charge-offs, fully covered by loan loss
reserves
Reclassification to nonaccrual loans includes $264 million and the
^9 increase in net loan charge offs include $271 million from the completion
of implementation of OCC guidance.
Net Loan Charge-offs
Net loan charge-offs improved to $2.1 billion in fourth quarter 2012, or 105
basis points of average loans, compared with $2.6 billion in fourth quarter
2011, or 136 basis points of average loans. On a linked-quarter basis, net
loan charge-offs improved by $277 million, or 16 basis points of average
loans.
Excluding the $321 million in charge-offs resulting from the adjustments
associated with the OCC guidance, net charge-offs in fourth quarter 2012 were
$1.8 billion or 89 basis points with commercial losses of $255 million, or 29
basis points, and consumer losses of $1.5 billion or 138 basis points^10. Full
year 2012 credit losses (excluding losses from the OCC guidance
implementation) declined $3.2 billion or 28 percent from 2011.
Management believes that the presentation in this news release of
^10 information excluding the impact of the OCC guidance provides useful
disclosure regarding the credit quality of the Company’s loan portfolios.

(1)Includes $1.4 billion at September 30, 2012, resulting from implementation of OCC
guidance issued in third quarter 2012, which requires consumer loans discharged in
bankruptcy to be placed on nonaccrual status and written down to net realizable
collateral value, regardless of their delinquency status.
Loans 90 Days or More Past Due and Still Accruing
Loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing (excluding government
insured/guaranteed) totaled $1.4 billion at December 31, 2012, compared with
$1.5 billion at September 30, 2012. Loans 90 days or more past due and still
accruing with repayments insured by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA)
or predominantly guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) for
mortgages and the U.S. Department of Education for student loans under the
Federal Family Education Loan Program were $21.8 billion at December 31, 2012,
up slightly from $21.4 billion at September 30, 2012.
Allowance for Credit Losses
The allowance for credit losses, including the allowance for unfunded
commitments, totaled $17.5 billion at December 31, 2012, down from $17.8
billion at September 30, 2012. The allowance reflected estimated loan losses
attributable to Hurricane Sandy. The allowance coverage to total loans was
2.19 percent, compared with 2.27 percent in third quarter 2012. The allowance
covered 2.1 times annualized fourth quarter net charge-offs, compared with 1.9
times in the prior quarter. The allowance coverage to nonaccrual loans was 85
percent at December 31, 2012, compared with 85 percent at September 30, 2012.
“We believe the allowance was appropriate for losses inherent in the loan
portfolio at December 31, 2012,” said Loughlin.

Community Banking reported net income of $2.9 billion, up $360 million, or 14
percent, from fourth quarter 2011. Revenue increased $773 million, or 6
percent, primarily due to higher mortgage banking revenue and above-average
quarterly equity gains, partially offset by lower net interest income.
Noninterest expense increased $720 million, or 10 percent, from fourth quarter
2011, largely the result of costs associated with the IFR settlement and a
$250 million contribution to the Wells Fargo Foundation, partially mitigated
by lower employee benefits costs. The provision for credit losses was $268
million lower than a year ago due to improved portfolio performance. Net
income included a benefit of $332 million associated with the realization for
tax purposes of a previously written-down Wachovia life insurance investment.
Net income was up $129 million, or 5 percent, from third quarter 2012. Revenue
increased $672 million, or 5 percent, from third quarter 2012, primarily due
to above-average quarterly equity gains and higher mortgage banking revenue.
Noninterest expense increased $631 million, or 9 percent, from third quarter,
largely due to costs associated with the IFR settlement and a $250 million
contribution to the Wells Fargo Foundation, partially offset by lower employee
benefit costs. The provision for credit losses increased $130 million from
third quarter, as credit improvement was more than offset by additional
charge-offs from the completion of implementation of the OCC guidance issued
in third quarter 2012. Net income also included a benefit of $332 million
associated with the realization for tax purposes of a previously written-down
Wachovia life insurance investment.

Wholesale Banking reported net income of $2.0 billion, up $396 million, or 24
percent, from fourth quarter 2011 led by higher pre-tax pre-provision profit
(PTPP)^12 and lower net charge-offs. Revenue increased $577 million, or 11
percent, from fourth quarter 2011 driven by broad-based business growth,
including acquisitions and solid loan and deposit growth. Noninterest expense
increased $69 million, or 2 percent, from fourth quarter 2011 due to higher
personnel expenses related to revenue growth and higher non-personnel expenses
related to growth initiatives and compliance and regulatory requirements.
Despite an improvement of $71 million in net charge-offs, the provision for
credit losses increased $29 million from fourth quarter 2011, due to a lower
level of reserve release. The fourth quarter 2012 provision included a $50
million reserve release, compared with a $150 million reserve release a year
ago.
^12 See footnote (2) in SUMMARY FINANCIAL DATA table for more information on
pre-tax pre-provision profit.
Net income was up $39 million, or 2 percent, from third quarter 2012. Revenue
of $6.0 billion increased $44 million, or 1 percent, from third quarter 2012
as strong growth across many businesses, including capital finance, commercial
banking, commercial real estate, corporate banking and investment banking was
partially offset by lower sales and trading, equity funds gains and lower PCI
resolutions. The Wholesale Banking businesses continued to drive higher loan
growth and meet customer demand with average loan balances rising to $279
billion in the fourth quarter. Noninterest expense increased $99 million, or
3 percent, from third quarter 2012 on higher personnel expense and operating
losses. The provision for credit losses was $60 million in fourth quarter,
compared with a net reversal of $57 million in the third quarter. This was due
to both increased net loan charge-offs and a decrease in reserve release.
* Five percent average loan and 7 percent average asset growth in fourth
quarter 2012 compared to fourth quarter 2011. The growth came from nearly
all portfolios, including asset backed finance, capital finance,
commercial banking, commercial real estate, corporate banking and
government and institutional banking
* Ten consecutive quarters of average loan growth in Commercial Banking
* Fourth quarter 2012 average core deposits, up 8 percent from fourth
quarter 2011
* Investment Banking full year revenue from commercial and corporate
customers increased 30 percent from 2011 full year due to attractive
capital markets conditions and continued momentum in cross selling
* Wholesale businesses established a branch presence in Toronto, Canada in
the quarter, expanding capabilities
* Wells Fargo Asset Management announced that it had acquired a minority
ownership stake in privately held The Rock Creek Group, a Washington,
D.C.-based fund of hedge funds firm with approximately $7 billion in
assets under management
* Cross-sell of 6.8 products per relationship, up from 6.7 in prior

percent from fourth quarter 2011. Revenue was $3.1 billion, up 2 percent from
fourth quarter 2011. Fourth quarter 2011 results included a $153 million gain
on the sale of the H.D. Vest business. Excluding the gain on the sale of H.D.
Vest and $46 million in lower gains on deferred compensation plan investments
(offset in compensation expense), revenue was up 9 percent, predominantly due
to higher asset-based fees and brokerage transaction revenue, partially offset
by lower net interest income. Total provision for credit losses decreased $5
million from fourth quarter 2011. The provision in the fourth quarter 2012 and
fourth quarter 2011 included an $8 million and a $12 million credit reserve
release, respectively. Noninterest expense was flat compared with the fourth
quarter 2011. Apart from a $41 million decrease in deferred compensation plan
expense (offset in trading income), noninterest expense increased 1 percent,
primarily due to higher broker commissions.
Net income was up 4 percent from third quarter 2012. Revenue was up 2 percent
from third quarter 2012. Excluding $32 million in lower gains on deferred
compensation plan investments, revenue was up 3 percent largely due to higher
asset-based fees. Total provision for credit losses decreased $15 million from
third quarter 2012; the provision in the third quarter 2012 included a $10
million credit reserve release. Noninterest expense increased 2 percent from
the third quarter 2012 driven by higher personnel expense, primarily increased
incentives, partially offset by lower deferred compensation expense and
reduced non-personnel costs. Apart from a $34 million decrease in deferred
compensation, noninterest expense increased 4 percent.

Cautionary Statement about Forward-Looking Information
In accordance with the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, we
caution you that this news release contains forward-looking statements about
our future financial performance and business. We make forward-looking
statements when we use words such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,”
“estimate,” “target,” “should,” “may,” “can,” “will,” “outlook,” “project,”
“appears” or similar expressions. Forward-looking statements in this news
release include, among others, statements about: (i) future credit quality and
performance, and the appropriateness of the allowance for loan losses,
including our current expectation of future reserve releases; (ii) our
expectations regarding noninterest expense and our targeted efficiency ratio;
and (iii) our estimate regarding our Tier 1 common equity ratio under proposed
Basel III capital rules as of December 31, 2012.
Do not unduly rely on forward-looking statements as actual results could
differ materially from expectations. Forward-looking statements speak only as
of the date made, and we do not undertake to update them to reflect changes or
events that occur after that date. Several factors could cause actual results
to differ materially from expectations including: current and future economic
and market conditions, including the effects of further declines in housing
prices, high unemployment rates, U.S. fiscal debt, budget and tax matters, and
the sovereign debt crisis and economic difficulties in Europe; our capital
requirements (including under regulatory capital standards as determined and
interpreted by applicable regulatory authorities such as the proposed Basel
III capital rules) and our ability to generate capital internally or raise
capital on favorable terms; financial services reform and other current,
pending or future legislation or regulation that could have a negative effect
on our revenue and businesses (including the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and
Consumer Protection Act), as well as our ability to mitigate the loss of
revenue and income from financial services reform and other regulation and
legislation; the extent of success in our loan modification efforts, including
the effects of regulatory requirements, or changes in regulatory requirements,
relating to loan modifications; the amount of mortgage loan repurchase demands
that we receive and our ability to satisfy any such demands without having to
repurchase loans related thereto or otherwise indemnify or reimburse third
parties; negative effects relating to mortgage servicing and foreclosures, as
well as effects associated with our settlement with the Department of Justice
and other federal and state government entities related to our mortgage
servicing and foreclosure practices, including changes in our procedures or
practices and/or industry standards or practices, regulatory or judicial
requirements, penalties or fines, increased servicing and other costs or
obligations, including loan modification requirements, or delays or
moratoriums on foreclosures; our ability to realize our efficiency ratio
target as part of our expense management initiatives when and in the range
targeted, including as a result of business and economic cyclicality,
seasonality, changes in our business composition and operating environment,
growth in our businesses and/or acquisitions, and unexpected expenses relating
to, among other things, litigation and regulatory matters; a failure in or
breach of our operational or security systems or infrastructure, or those of
our third party vendors and other service providers; recognition of
other-than-temporary impairment on securities held in our available-for-sale
portfolio; the effect of the current low interest rate environment or changes
in interest rates on our net interest margin and our mortgage originations,
mortgage servicing rights and mortgages held for sale; hedging gains or
losses; disruptions in the capital markets and reduced investor demand for
mortgage loans; our ability to sell more products to our customers; the effect
of fluctuations in stock market prices on fee income from our brokerage, asset
and wealth management businesses; our election to provide support to our money
market funds; changes in the value of our venture capital investments; changes
in our accounting policies or in accounting standards or in how accounting
standards are to be applied; changes in our credit ratings and changes in the
credit ratings of our customers or counterparties; mergers and acquisitions;
federal and state regulations; reputational damage from negative publicity,
fines, penalties and other negative consequences from regulatory violations
and legal actions; the loss of checking and saving account deposits to other
investments such as the stock market; and fiscal and monetary policies of the
Federal Reserve Board. There is no assurance that our allowance for credit
losses will be adequate to cover future credit losses, especially if housing
prices decline and unemployment worsens. Increases in loan charge-offs or in
the allowance for credit losses and related provision expense could materially
adversely affect our financial results and condition. For more information
about factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our
expectations, refer to our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, including the discussion under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, as filed with the SEC and
available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Any factor described above or
in our SEC reports could, by itself or together with one or more other
factors, adversely affect our financial results and condition.

(1)The efficiency ratio is noninterest expense divided by total revenue (net interest income
and noninterest income).
(2)Pre-tax pre-provision profit (PTPP) is total revenue less noninterest expense. Management
believes that PTPP is a useful financial measure because it enables investors and others to
assess the Company's ability to generate capital to cover credit losses through a credit cycle.
(3)Core deposits are noninterest-bearing deposits, interest-bearing checking, savings
certificates, certain market rate and other savings, and certain foreign deposits (Eurodollar
sweep balances).
(4)Retail core deposits are total core deposits excluding Wholesale Banking core deposits and
retail mortgage escrow deposits.
(5)The December 31, 2012, ratios are preliminary.

(1)The efficiency ratio is noninterest expense divided by total revenue (net interest
income and noninterest income).
(2)Pre-tax pre-provision profit (PTPP) is total revenue less noninterest expense.
Management believes that PTPP is a useful financial measure because it enables
investors and others to assess the Company's ability to generate capital to cover
credit losses through a credit cycle.
(3)Core deposits are noninterest-bearing deposits, interest-bearing checking, savings
certificates, certain market rate and other savings, and certain foreign deposits
(Eurodollar sweep balances).
(4)Retail core deposits are total core deposits excluding Wholesale Banking core
deposits and retail mortgage escrow deposits.
(5)The December 31, 2012, ratios are preliminary.
(6)See the "Five Quarter Tier 1 Common Equity under Basel I" table for additional
information.
