Net Interest Income

TCF's net interest income in 2004 was $491.9 million, up $10.7 million, or 2 percent, from 2003. Net interest margin in 2004 was 4.54 percent, unchanged from 2003. The increase in net interest income in 2004 is primarily attributable to the solid growth in average Power Assets, partially offset by the reductions in residential real estate loans and mortgage-backed securities ("treasury assets") and mortgage loans held for sale. Average Power Assets increased $1 billion over 2003, while treasury assets declined $690.3 million during the same period.

TCF's net interest income in the fourth quarter of 2004 was $126.5 million, up $7.4 million, or 6 percent, from fourth quarter of 2003 and was up $2 million, or 2 percent, from the third quarter of 2004. Net interest margin in the fourth quarter of 2004 was 4.56 percent, compared with 4.68 percent last year and 4.56 percent in the third quarter of 2004. The increase in net interest income in the fourth quarter from the fourth quarter of 2003 and the third quarter of 2004 was primarily driven by increases in average Power Assets coupled with the favorable impact of the increases in short-term interest rates partially offset by the reductions in treasury assets and mortgage loans held for sale.

Interest Rate Risk

TCF has positioned its balance sheet to benefit from a rising interest rate environment. TCF's one-year interest rate gap (the difference between interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities repricing or maturing within the next twelve months), assuming no change in interest rates, was a positive $585 million, or 5 percent of total assets, at December 31, 2004, compared with a positive $161.3 million, or 1 percent of total assets at December 31, 2003 and a positive $1.1 billion, or 9 percent of total assets, at September 30, 2004. The decrease in the one-year interest rate gap during the fourth quarter of 2004 was primarily due to an increase in treasury assets and the movement of certain long-term fixed-rate borrowings into the one-year interest rate gap. The one-year interest rate gap is subject to a number of assumptions and is only one of a number of interest rate risk measurements and is best used as a general measure of the effect on net interest income of rising or falling interest rates.

Non-interest Income

Total non-interest income was $490.5 million for 2004, up $71.2 million, or 17 percent, from 2003. Included in non-interest income for 2003 were losses of $44.3 million on the termination of debt. There were no debt terminations in 2004. Banking fees and other revenue increased $32.5 million, or 9 percent, during the year as a result of TCF's expanding branch network and customer base, new products and services, and increased fees. Included in banking fees and other revenue are card revenues of $63.3 million, up $10.3 million, or 19 percent, from 2003 primarily reflecting an 18 percent increase in off-line sales volume.

During 2004, TCF sold $1.4 billion of mortgage-backed securities and realized gains of $22.6 million compared with sales of $816.5 million of mortgage-backed securities and realized gains of $32.8 million in 2003. Other revenue was $14.1 million for 2004, up $5.1 million from 2003. The increase was primarily due to gains on sales of student loans of $7.8 million in 2004 compared with gains of $3.1 million in 2003.

For the fourth quarter of 2004, total non-interest income was up 15 percent to $132.5 million. Banking fees and other revenue increased $7.9 million, or 9 percent, over the fourth quarter of 2003. Card revenues, included in banking fees and other revenue, totaled $17.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2004, up $5.4 million, or 45 percent, over the same period in 2003. The increase was attributable to a 21 percent increase in off-line sales volume coupled with an 18 basis point increase in the average off-line interchange rate.

Leasing and equipment finance revenues were $21 million for the fourth quarter of 2004, up $5.7 million, or 37 percent, from the 2003 fourth quarter. The increase is primarily the result of a $5.4 million increase in sales-type lease revenues. Leasing and equipment finance revenues may fluctuate from quarter to quarter based on customer driven factors not within the control of TCF.

During the 2004 fourth quarter, TCF took advantage of market conditions and sold $346.3 million of mortgage-backed securities and realized gains of $6.2 million. There were no sales of securities during the fourth quarter of 2003. For the fourth quarter of 2004, other revenue totaled $7.5 million, up $4.5 million, from the fourth quarter of 2003. The increase was primarily due to gains on sales of student loans of $5.3 million during the 2004 fourth quarter compared with $941 thousand for the same 2003 period.

New Branch Expansion

TCF opened 30 new branches during 2004, including 19 new traditional branches and 11 new supermarket branches, and has now opened 258 new branches since January 1998 representing 60 percent of TCF's 430 total branches. During the fourth quarter of 2004, TCF opened 12 new branches consisting of eight traditional branches and four supermarket branches. "TCF remains focused on its long-term strategy of expanding its franchise with the planned opening of 29 new branches in 2005, consisting of 24 new traditional branches and five new supermarket branches," said Cooper.

Power Assets(R)

"TCF's Power Asset lending operations continue to generate strong growth, resulting in a $1 billion increase in Power Assets over 2003," said Cooper.

TCF's consumer loan average balances increased $717.5 million, or 22 percent, and leasing and equipment finance average balances increased $191.4 million, or 18 percent, from 2003. The growth in leasing and equipment finance was also aided by the March 2004 acquisition of VGM Leasing Inc., a company specializing in home medical equipment financing, which had $103 million of average leasing and equipment finance balances for 2004.

"Our continued focus on growing our customer base resulted in an increase of 91,331 checking accounts, or 6 percent, in 2004 to 1,535,152 accounts despite increased competition in all our markets," said Cooper. "Growing checking accounts is an important part of our long-term strategies." Average Power Liabilities totaled $7.8 billion for 2004, with an average interest rate of .55 percent, down 18 basis points from 2003. Average checking, savings and money market balances increased $249.4 million from 2003 despite a $125.5 million reduction in average custodial account balances related to the significant decrease in mortgage banking activity. Certificates of deposit declined from 2003, as other lower-cost funding sources were available to TCF.

Residential Real Estate Loans and Securities Available for Sale

Average balances of residential real estate loans and securities available for sale (consisting primarily of mortgage-backed securities) totaled $2.6 billion for 2004, a decrease of $690 million from 2003. This decline in average balances primarily reflects the significant decline in balances which occurred during 2003 as a result of the high level of prepayments. These assets remained relatively flat throughout 2004 at approximately $2.6 billion. During the fourth quarter of 2004, TCF stopped originating loans for its residential real estate portfolio. Future consumer loan origination activity will be dedicated to the consumer home equity loan portfolio. At December 31, 2004, the unrealized pre-tax loss on TCF's securities available for sale portfolio was $2.2 million.

Non-interest Expense

Non-interest expense totaled $586.9 million for 2004, a 5 percent increase from 2003. The increase was primarily due to costs associated with new branch expansion, additional advertising and promotions expense focused on producing and retaining TCF's deposit customer base, increased incentive compensation resulting from improved performance and increased deposit account losses resulting from increased customer transaction activity. Other expenses totaled $119.5 million for 2004, down $5 million, from 2003. Contributing to the decline in other expenses was a reduction in real estate owned expense of $3.1 million coupled with a reduction in mortgage banking expenses of $2 million.

Non-interest expense totaled $154.4 million for the 2004 fourth quarter, up $12.2 million, or 9 percent, from $142.2 million for the 2003 fourth quarter. Compensation and employee benefits increased $9.6 million, or 13 percent, from the fourth quarter of 2003, primarily driven by a $4.2 million increase in incentive compensation resulting from improved performance in 2004 and a $1.9 million increase related to new branches opened during the past 12 months. Occupancy and equipment expenses increased $2.1 million, or 9 percent, from the fourth quarter of 2003, with $1.4 million relating to costs associated with new branch expansion.

Credit Quality

At December 31, 2004, TCF's allowance for loan and lease losses totaled $79.9 million, or .85 percent of loans and leases, compared with $76.6 million, or .92 percent, at December 31, 2003. The provision for credit losses for 2004 was $10.9 million, down from $12.5 million for 2003. Net loan and lease charge-offs in 2004 were $9.5 million, or .11 percent of average loans and leases, down from $12.9 million, or .16 percent in 2003. At December 31, 2004, TCF's over-30-day delinquency rate was .37 percent, down from .47 percent at December 31, 2003. Total non-performing assets were $64.1 million, or .52 percent of total assets, at December 31, 2004, down from $68.9 million, or .61 percent, at December 31, 2003, primarily reflecting a net decrease in other real estate owned of $16.3 million partially offset by a net increase in non-accrual loans and leases as a result of the $18.8 million investment in a leveraged airplane lease moving to non-accrual status, during the third quarter of 2004.

Mortgage Banking

During 2004, TCF restructured its mortgage banking business by eliminating the wholesale loan origination activities and downsizing and integrating its retail loan origination function with its consumer lending business. TCF's mortgage banking business no longer originates any new loans and continues to service the remaining $4.5 billion portfolio of mortgage loans for third party investors. During the fourth quarter of 2004, TCF increased its mortgage servicing rights valuation allowance by $2.5 million and at December 31, 2004, the mortgage servicing rights asset totaled $46.4 million, 1.03% of the related servicing portfolio.

Income Taxes

TCF's income tax expense was $129.5 million for 2004, or 33.68 percent of income before income tax expense, compared with $111.9 million, or 34.14 percent, for the same 2003 period. The lower effective income tax rate in 2004 was primarily due to increased investments in affordable housing limited partnerships and lower state and local income taxes. TCF's income tax expense was $33.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2004, or 32.96 percent of income before income tax expense, compared with $28.2 million, or 32.14 percent, for the comparable 2003 period.

TCF repurchased 3,984,890 shares of its common stock during 2004 at an average cost of $29.14 per share, including 1,570,000 shares at an average cost of $30.72 during the fourth quarter. TCF has 3.5 million shares remaining in its stock repurchase program authorized by its Board of Directors.

These include but are not limited to possible legislative changes and adverse economic, business and competitive developments such as shrinking interest margins; deposit outflows; ability to increase the number of checking accounts and the possibility that deposit account losses (fraudulent checks, etc.) may increase; reduced demand for financial services and loan and lease products; adverse developments affecting TCF's supermarket banking relationships or any of the supermarket chains in which TCF maintains supermarket branches; changes in accounting policies and guidelines, or monetary, fiscal or tax policies of the federal or state governments; changes in credit and other risks posed by TCF's loan, lease and investment portfolios, including declines in commercial or residential real estate values or a bankruptcy filing by Delta Airlines, the lessee under a leveraged lease in which TCF holds an equity interest; technological, computer-related or operational difficulties; adverse changes in securities markets; the risk that TCF could be unable to effectively manage the volatility of its mortgage servicing portfolio, which could adversely affect earnings; and results of litigation or other significant uncertainties. Investors should consult TCF's Annual Report to Shareholders and reports on Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K for additional important information about the Company.
