People's United Financial, Inc. Reports People's Bank Earnings of $34 Million or $0.24 Per Share; Raises Dividend 12 Percent

    BRIDGEPORT, Conn., April 19 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- People's United
Financial, Inc. (Nasdaq: PBCTD) today announced that its principal
subsidiary, People's Bank, reported net income of $33.6 million, or $0.24
per share, for the first quarter of 2007, compared to $34.8 million, or
$0.24 per share, for the first quarter of 2006. Income from continuing
operations was $33.1 million for the first quarter of 2007, compared to
$33.9 million for the year-ago quarter. Per share amounts are based on the
number of outstanding shares of People's Bank common stock prior to
completing the second-step conversion on April 16, 2007. The results of the
second-step conversion did not impact People's Bank's reported quarterly
results.
    For the first quarter of 2007, return on average assets was 1.27
percent and return on average stockholders' equity was 10.0 percent,
compared to 1.28 percent and 10.8 percent, respectively, for the year-ago
quarter.
    As previously announced on April 16, 2007, People's United Financial
successfully completed its second-step conversion, which included the sale
of 172.2 million shares in a subscription and syndicated offering, the
issuance of 126.6 million shares in exchange for previously outstanding
shares of People's Bank common stock, and the issuance of 2.0 million
shares to The People's Community Foundation. The Board of Directors of
People's United Financial declared a $0.13 per share quarterly dividend on
all 300.8 million outstanding shares of People's United Financial common
stock, payable May 15, 2007 to shareholders of record on May 1, 2007. The
dividend represents a 12 percent increase over the dividend paid to the
former holders of People's Bank common stock prior to the conversion, after
adjusting for the exchange ratio. Based on the closing stock price on April
18, 2007, the dividend yield on People's United Financial common stock is
2.5 percent.
    President and Chief Executive Officer, John A. Klein stated, "We are
very pleased to reward our shareholders with a 15th consecutive annual
dividend increase, reflecting management's positive outlook for People's
United Financial's future."
    Klein continued, "The successful completion of our second-step
conversion earlier this week, which raised $3.44 billion, allows us to
continue to invest in our valuable banking franchise in Connecticut and
beyond, and has enabled us to make a $60 million donation to fund The
People's Community Foundation. Our additional size and scale will help
improve our overall profitability and preserve our long-term
competitiveness. In particular, our ability to make acquisitions is now
considerably enhanced."
    Klein concluded, "The bank delivered another quarter of solid earnings
through continued growth in our core lending businesses, including a year-
over-year double-digit increase in commercial banking loans."
    "Key drivers of the bank's performance this quarter were a relatively
stable net interest margin and ongoing strong asset quality," said Philip
R. Sherringham, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer.
"While the net interest margin declined 2 percent from the fourth quarter
of 2006, it improved 17 basis points year-over-year, reflecting the
benefits from the balance sheet restructuring activities completed during
2006."
    Sherringham added, "Average loans increased $750 million, or 9 percent,
on a year-over-year basis, while average securities declined $1.3 billion,
or 94 percent."
    Sherringham concluded, "Bankwide asset quality remains very strong.
First quarter net loan charge-offs totaled $0.4 million, or 0.01 percent of
average loans on an annualized basis, compared to $1.0 million, or 0.05
percent (after excluding a $2.3 million commercial banking loan recovery),
in the first quarter of last year."
    Compared to the first quarter of 2006, the $3.1 million increase in the
provision for loan losses reflects a $0.4 million increase in the allowance
for loan losses and net loan charge-offs of $0.4 million in the current
quarter, compared to a $1.0 million decrease in the allowance for loan
losses and net loan recoveries of $1.3 million in the year-ago quarter.
    At March 31, 2007, non-performing assets totaled $19.4 million, a $3.3
million, or 15 percent, decrease from December 31, 2006. Non-performing
assets equaled 0.21 percent of total loans, REO and repossessed assets,
compared to 0.24 percent at December 31, 2006. The allowance for loan
losses as a percentage of non-performing loans was 389 percent at March 31,
2007, compared to 328 percent at December 31, 2006. The allowance for loan
losses as a percentage of total loans was 0.80 percent at March 31, 2007,
compared to 0.79 percent at December 31, 2006.
    Selected Financial Terms
    In addition to evaluating People's United Financial's results of
operations in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
("GAAP"), management routinely supplements this evaluation with an analysis
of certain non-GAAP financial measures, such as core deposits, purchased
funds and the efficiency ratio. Management believes these non-GAAP
financial measures provide information useful to investors in understanding
People's United Financial's underlying operating performance and trends,
and facilitates comparisons with the performance of other banks and
thrifts.
    Core deposits is a measure of stable funding sources and is defined as
total deposits, other than brokered certificates of deposit (acquired in
the wholesale market), municipal deposits (which are seasonally variable by
nature) and escrow deposits from People's United Financial's subscription
offering. Purchased funds include borrowings, brokered certificates of
deposit and municipal deposits.
    The efficiency ratio, which represents an approximate measure of the
cost required by People's 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) to net interest income plus total
non-interest income (excluding gains and losses on sales of assets, other
than residential mortgage loans, and nonrecurring income). People's 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 People's United
Financial's ongoing operating efficiency, as the excluded items are
generally related to external market conditions and non-routine
transactions.
