Camco Financial Announces Second Quarter 2007 Earnings

Cambridge, Ohio (Nasdaq: CAFI) — Camco Financial Corporation (Camco) reported net earnings for the quarter ended June 30, 2007, of $1.35 million, or $0.18 per share, compared to net earnings of $1.82 million, or $0.24 per share, for the same quarter in 2006. Assets totaled $1.04 billion at
June 30, 2007.

     For the six months ended June 30, 2007, Camco reported net earnings of $2.85 million compared to $3.49 million of net earnings reported for the first half of 2006. Earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, were $0.38 and $0.46, respectively.

The following key items summarize the Company’s financial results during the second quarter of 2007:

• Loans receivable increased $4.9 million;

• While total deposits decreased $3.3 million, retail deposits increased by $1.7 million;

• Nonperforming assets increased $904,000 but remained at 2.04% of assets

• Net losses on REO totaled $339,000, primarily due to the sale of a single property;

• Net interest income increased as net interest margin improved;

• A new banking office was launched in London, Ohio;

• Camco committed to issuing $5.0 million of trust preferred securities to support its previously announced share repurchase program; and,

• A quarterly dividend of $0.15 per share was declared.

President and CEO Richard C. Baylor commented, “We are not satisfied with our net earnings for the second quarter and we continue to deal with a high level of nonperforming assets. The state of Ohio, in general, is plagued by higher than average unemployment and very high delinquencies. However, our conservative lending standards have mitigated our loan losses to an annualized rate of only 0.10% of loans through the first half of 2007.”

Mr. Baylor continued, “While we continue to increase our efforts on the collection and workout of nonperforming loans, we cannot lose sight of our strategic vision to transform our balance sheet to a commercial bank and grow our core deposit base. Consistent with this plan, we added commercial lenders and reduced our reliance on wholesale deposits during the quarter as we were able to increase relationship-building retail deposits. We have launched a new suite of checking accounts in July that

will target small and medium-sized businesses, and we have begun pilot testing Advantage24^©, our brand of remote deposit capture. These tactical initiatives are occurring in the midst of an enterprise-wide renewal of our merchandising program and investment in our stores to enhance the customer experience.”

Review of Financial Performance

Net Interest Margin: During the second quarter of 2007, net interest margin increased to 2.98% from 2.94% in the first quarter of 2007. Interest spread widened by 3 basis points to 2.61% during the quarter. The increase in the net interest margin of 4 basis points was primarily the result of a higher yield on earning assets as the Company’s asset mix shifted further to loans due to the maturity of investment securities. Cost of funds increased 14 basis points to 4.00%, which reflects continued competitive pressure for deposits in Ohio and the increase in market rates. A favorable shift in the deposit portfolio mix toward lower cost core deposits helped to offset rising interest rates as certificates of deposit declined $8.5 million during the quarter and core deposits increased $5.2 million.

Noninterest Income: For the quarter ended June 30, 2007, total noninterest income decreased to $1.06 million from $1.47 million for the same period last year. Total noninterest income declined $505,000 from the first quarter of 2007. This decrease was primarily due to net losses on other real estate owned of $339,000 in the second quarter or 2007. Most of this net loss is attributable to the sale of a commercial property that secured a loan to which the Company was a participant.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2007, $13.2 million of loans were sold with a total gain of $71,000 compared to $15.7 million sold in the second quarter of 2006 for a gain of $80,000. Continued rising interest rates and a slowdown in housing sales have caused a reduction in loan applications.

Noninterest Expense: For the quarter ended June 30, 2007, noninterest expense totaled $6.44 million compared to $5.94 million for the comparable period in 2006, an increase of 8.30%. Noninterest expense decreased $127,000 from the first quarter of 2007, primarily due to the adjustment of a post-retirement accrual due to the departure of a member of senior management. As a percentage of average assets, operating expenses increased to 2.46% in 2007 from 2.23% in the second quarter of 2006. The year-over-year increase is primarily due to increases in occupancy and equipment and marketing and advertising expense as the Company has launched two branches since June 30, 2006, and a new merchandising campaign is underway to improve the sales delivery process. Additionally, employee compensation and benefits increased due to the hiring of branch personnel related to the launch of the banking offices and revenue-generating commercial lenders.

Asset Quality: Nonperforming loans as a percentage of loans increased to 2.17% at June 30, 2007, from 2.04% at March 31, 2007, and 1.85% at June 30, 2006. At June 30, 2007, nonperforming loans totaled $18.2 million, of which 50.1% were single-family residential loans. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of loans decreased to 84 basis points at June 30, 2007, as annualized net charge-offs as a percentage of loans were 0.11% during the second quarter of 2007 and 0.10% during the first six months of this year.

Strategic Vision:
Balance Sheet Transformation: Camco continues to execute and manage its long-term strategic plan. This plan encompasses the diversification of the balance sheet primarily through increasing commercial, commercial real estate and consumer loan portfolios as well as transaction-based deposits. At June 30, 2007, residential mortgage loans secured by one-to-four family properties fell to 48% of the loan portfolio from 51% at June 30, 2006, as lending efforts continue to be focused on commercial and consumer loans.

Share Repurchase Plan: In April 2007, Camco announced the renewal of a share repurchase plan that authorized the buyback of up to 5% of Camco’s common stock. During the first six months of 2007, Camco has repurchased 135,221 shares in 2007. In June 2007, Camco agreed to participate in the issuance of $5.0 million of trust preferred securities. The issuance is expected to close on July 31, 2007. The proceeds from the issuance will be used to fund the share repurchase plan and general corporate purposes.

Branch Optimization and Product Development: During the second quarter, Camco initiated an internal and external review of its branch network and sales delivery channels and made progress toward the launch of several key deposit products. The review has focused on operational process efficiency, noninterest income enhancement and branch delivery. Camco will begin implementing the results of this initiative in the second half of 2007. Advantage Bank will launch a new suite of checking accounts in July 2007 that focus on small and medium-sized businesses. Additionally, Advantage Bank will pilot test Advantage24^© in the second half of 2007. This product offers electronic remote deposit capture that allows business owners to deposit checks from their home offices, eliminating the need to drive to an Advantage Bank branch to make deposits.
