EX-99.1 2 k01998exv99w1.txt PRESS RELEASE DATED JANUARY 24, 2006 EXHIBIT 99.1 NEWS RELEASE FOR MORE INFORMATION CONTACT: Paul D. Borja Executive Vice President / CFO (248) 312-2000 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE FLAGSTAR REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER RESULTS TROY, Mich. (January 24, 2006) - Flagstar Bancorp, Inc. (NYSE:FBC), today reported fourth quarter 2005 net earnings of $22.8 million, or $0.36 per share - diluted. For the year ended December 31, 2005, net earnings totaled $79.9 million, or $1.25 per share - diluted. For the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2004, net earnings totaled $25.4 million, or $0.40 per share - diluted. For the year ended December 31, 2004, net earnings totaled $142.7 million, or $2.22 per share - diluted. Each of these amounts for 2004 reflects a restatement of earnings for 2004 and prior periods, as further described below. HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE QUARTER INCLUDE: - Completion of our first non-agency securitization, resulting in a $14.1 million pre-tax gain - A fourth quarter annualized return on average equity of 12.06% - The opening of our 137th banking center - Loan production of $6.1 billion, including $5.4 billion in residential mortgage loans - Loans serviced for others of $29.7 billion at quarter-end - Received an "Outstanding" in Community Reinvestment Act performance from our principal banking regulator - Reduction of $1.1 billion in FHLB Advances - Listing on Standard and Poor's Select Server list BALANCE SHEET AND CAPITAL ADEQUACY Consolidated assets at December 31, 2005 were $15.1 billion, compared with $15.4 billion at September 30, 2005 and $13.1 billion at December 31, 2004. With its core capital ratio of 6.21% and risk-based capital ratio of 11.03%, Flagstar Bank, our wholly-owned subsidiary, will be categorized as a "well-capitalized" institution for regulatory purposes. NET INTEREST MARGIN The net interest margin for the quarter ended December 31, 2005 was 1.73%, which was a decrease of 15 basis points when compared to the same period last year. On a sequential quarter basis, our net interest margin increased 1 basis point from 1.72%. Our net interest margin for the year ended December 31, 2005 was 1.82%, a decrease of 17 basis points when compared to 1.99% reported for the year ended December 31, 2004. RETAIL BANKING OPERATIONS We had 137 branches in operation at December 31, 2005. We expect to open an additional 15 branches by the end of 2006, nine in Georgia and six in Michigan. Our banking operations contributed approximately $32.1 million of before-tax earnings during the quarter. These results were down 4.5% from the third quarter of 2005. MORTGAGE BANKING OPERATIONS Our gain on sale spread increased to 48 basis points during the quarter ended December 31, 2005 as compared to 11 basis points recorded during the same period last year. The increase was a result primarily of the $14.1 million pre-tax gain recorded with the completion of our first non-agency securitization involving $600 million of our home equity line of credit (HELOC) portfolio. The gain on sale spread for the year ended December 31, 2005 totaled 31 basis points, which was a 2 basis point increase when compared to the gain on sale spread for the year ended December 31, 2004. At December 31, 2005, our servicing portfolio totaled $29.7 billion with a weighted average service fee of 34.7 basis points, an increase of $8.3 billion from December 31, 2004. During December 2005, we completed a $4.8 billion servicing sale, resulting in a pre-tax gain of $10.2 million. The capitalized value of our servicing portfolio was $315.7 million, or 1.06% of the outstanding balance of loans serviced for others, at December 31, 2005. The estimated market value of the portfolio was $421.1 million at December 31, 2005. ASSET QUALITY Non-performing loans totaled $64.5 million at December 31, 2005, an increase of $7.45 million as compared to $57.0 million recorded at December 31, 2004. The increase was due in part to the recent surge in bankruptcy filings because of the new bankruptcy laws. As a result, delinquencies as a percent of loans held for investment increased to 1.10% at December 31, 2005, from 0.99% at December 31, 2004. Reflecting our business model of focusing primarily on the residential mortgage market, 87.8% of non-performing loans were collateralized by single-family homes. The single-family residential first mortgage loans in our investment portfolio have an average FICO credit score of 721 and an average loan-to-value ratio of 71%. RESTATEMENT During the fourth quarter of 2005, we identified errors in connection with the computation of our state tax liability. As a result of this discovery, the Company determined it had understated its state tax accrual by an aggregate amount of $9.5 million for 2002, 2003 and 2004, which resulted in a $5.9 million aggregate reduction in net earnings for those years. The Company intends to restate its financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2003, and 2004 to reflect a reduction in net earnings of approximately $2.5 million for 2002, $2.4 million for 2003, and $1.0 million for 2004. The restatements will be effected through the Company's filing of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005 (the "2005 Form 10-K"). As a result of the above restatements, management expects to report, in the 2005 Form 10-K, a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting relating to the Company's process for computing its state tax liability. Because preparation and completion of Flagstar's financial statements in connection with its 2005 Form 10-K and restatements to its previously filed financial statements are ongoing, the financial information presented herein, including the cumulative effects of the errors described above, is preliminary and subject to adjustment. AS PREVIOUSLY ANNOUNCED The Company's quarterly earnings conference call will be held on Wednesday, January 25, 2006 from 11 a.m. until noon (Eastern).
