People's United Financial Reports 2nd Quarter Improvement in Net Income of 61 Percent Over Prior Year After Adjustment for Funding its Newly Established Charitable Foundation

    BRIDGEPORT, Conn., July 19 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- People's United
Financial, Inc. (Nasdaq: PBCT) today announced net income of $13.5 million,
or $0.05 per share, for the second quarter of 2007. The current quarter's
results reflect the previously announced $60 million contribution to the
People's United Community Foundation, which had the effect of reducing net
income by $39.6 million, or $0.13 per share. Excluding this charge, net
income would have been $53.1 million, or $0.18 per share, compared to $32.9
million or $0.11 per share for the second quarter of 2006. Prior period per
share information has been adjusted to reflect the exchange of People's
Bank common stock for 2.1 shares of People's United Financial common stock
upon completing the second-step conversion on April 16, 2007.
    For the second quarter of 2007, return on average assets was 0.40
percent and return on average stockholders' equity was 1.4 percent,
compared to 1.20 percent and 10.1 percent, respectively, for the year-ago
quarter. Return on average assets and return on average stockholders'
equity would have been 1.59 percent and 5.34 percent, respectively, for the
second quarter of 2007, excluding the previously mentioned $60 million
contribution.
    The Board of Directors of People's United Financial declared a $0.1333
per share quarterly dividend, payable August 15, 2007 to shareholders of
record on August 1, 2007. Based on the closing stock price on July 18,
2007, the dividend yield on People's United Financial common stock is 3.1
percent.
    President and Chief Executive Officer, John A. Klein stated, "The
successful completion of our second-step conversion in April, which raised
$3.44 billion in gross proceeds, followed by our recent announcement of an
agreement to acquire the Chittenden Corporation, were truly significant
milestones for the company."
    Klein added, "In addition, the announcement of our rebranding to
People's United Bank will facilitate our plans for continued growth in new
and existing markets, while at the same time emphasizing our commitment to
our customers and communities. Our funding of the People's United Community
Foundation also exemplifies this commitment."
    Klein concluded, "And, of course, in mid-June we opened our first
Westchester County, New York branch in an attractive Scarsdale location.
Overall, it has been a busy quarter in which we nonetheless continued to
deliver strong financial results."
    "Key drivers of the company's performance this quarter were a
significant increase in the net interest margin and ongoing strong asset
quality," said Philip R. Sherringham, Executive Vice President and Chief
Financial Officer. "The year-over-year 41 basis point improvement in the
net interest margin reflects the benefits from the investment of the net
proceeds from our second- step conversion and the balance sheet
restructuring activities completed during 2006."
    Sherringham continued, "Average earning assets increased $2.4 billion
on a year-over-year basis, reflecting increases of $3.2 billion in average
short- term investments as a result of the second-step conversion and $272
million, or 3 percent, in average loans, while average securities declined
$1.0 billion, or 93 percent. While average commercial banking loans
increased 9 percent on a year-over-year basis, average residential mortgage
loans actually declined 2 percent as a result of our decision to sell all
newly-originated residential mortgage loans in the current environment."
    Sherringham added, "Although non-interest expenses increased $7.6
million, or 9 percent, from the first quarter of 2007, the large increase
in net interest income due to the investment of the proceeds from the
second-step conversion led to a significant improvement in the efficiency
ratio to 53 percent this quarter."
    Commenting on asset quality, Sherringham stated, "Second quarter net
loan charge-offs included a $3.6 million charge-off relating to one
commercial banking loan that has been classified as non-performing since
December 2006, comprising substantially all of total net loan charge-offs
of $3.7 million for the second quarter of 2007, compared to $0.2 million in
the year-ago quarter. Net loan charge-offs as a percent of average loans on
an annualized basis were 0.16 percent in the second quarter of 2007,
compared to 0.01 percent in the second quarter of last year."
    At June 30, 2007, non-performing assets totaled $18.4 million, a $1.0
million, or 5 percent, decrease from March 31, 2007. Non-performing assets
equaled 0.20 percent of total loans, REO and repossessed assets, compared
to 0.21 percent at March 31, 2007. The allowance for loan losses as a
percentage of non-performing loans was 405 percent at June 30, 2007,
compared to 389 percent at March 31, 2007. The allowance for loan losses as
a percentage of total loans remained at 0.80 percent at both June 30, 2007
and March 31, 2007.
    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.
