DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

General

Wells Fargo & Company is a diversified financial services company organized under the laws of Delaware and registered as a bank holding company and financial holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (BHC Act). Based on assets of $428 billion at December 31, 2004, it was the fifth largest bank holding company in the United States. In this report, Wells Fargo & Company and Subsidiaries (consolidated) is referred to as the Company and Wells Fargo & Company alone is referred to as the Parent.

The Company engages in banking and a variety of related financial services businesses. Retail, commercial and corporate banking services are provided through banking stores in Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico, North Dakota, Ohio, Oregon, South Dakota, Texas, Utah, Washington, Wisconsin and Wyoming. Other financial services are provided by subsidiaries engaged in various businesses, principally: wholesale banking, mortgage banking, consumer finance, equipment leasing, agricultural finance, commercial finance, securities brokerage and investment banking, insurance agency and brokerage services, computer and data processing services, trust services, mortgage-backed securities servicing and venture capital investment.

In February 2004, the Company completed the consolidation of 19 of its national bank charters into a single, national bank charter, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (Wells Fargo Bank). At December 31, 2004, Wells Fargo Bank was the Parent’s principal subsidiary with $366 billion in total assets, or 86% of the Company’s assets. Wells Fargo Bank is rated “Aaa” by Moody’s Investors Service and is the only U.S. bank to have the highest possible credit rating assigned by Moody’s.

With the acquisition of certain assets of Strong Financial Corporation at the end of 2004, the Company became one of the top 20 U.S. mutual fund companies, managing $100 billion in mutual funds. Total assets managed or administered (including brokerage) by the Company were $791 billion at December 31, 2004.

The Company has three operating segments for management reporting purposes: Community Banking, Wholesale Banking and Wells Fargo Financial. The 2004 Annual Report to Stockholders includes financial information and descriptions of these operating segments.

The Company had 145,500 full-time equivalent team members at December 31, 2004.

History and Growth

The Company is the product of the merger involving Norwest Corporation and the former Wells Fargo & Company, completed on November 2, 1998 (the WFC Merger). On completion of the WFC Merger, Norwest Corporation changed its name to Wells Fargo & Company.

2

Norwest Corporation was organized in 1929 under the laws of the State of Delaware. Prior to the WFC Merger, it provided banking services to customers in 16 states and additional financial services through subsidiaries engaged in a variety of businesses including mortgage banking and consumer finance.

The former Wells Fargo & Company’s principal subsidiary, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., was the successor to the banking portion of the business founded by Henry Wells and William G. Fargo in 1852. That business later operated the westernmost leg of the Pony Express and ran stagecoach lines in the western part of the United States. The California banking business was separated from the express business in 1905, merged in 1960 with American Trust Company, another of the oldest banks in the Western United States, and became Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., a national banking association, in 1968.

In April 1996, the former Wells Fargo & Company acquired First Interstate Bancorp, a $55 billion bank holding company in a transaction valued at $11 billion. In October 2000, the Company acquired First Security Corporation, a $23 billion bank holding company in a transaction valued at $3 billion.

The Company expands its business, in part, by acquiring banking institutions and other companies engaged in activities that are financial in nature. The Company continues to explore opportunities to acquire banking institutions and other financial services companies, and discussions are continually being carried on related to such possible acquisitions. The Company cannot predict whether, or on what terms, such discussions will result in further acquisitions. As a matter of policy, the Company generally does not comment on such discussions or possible acquisitions until a definitive acquisition agreement has been signed.

Competition

The financial services industry is highly competitive. The Company’s subsidiaries compete with financial services providers, such as banks, savings and loan associations, credit unions, finance companies, mortgage banking companies, insurance companies, and money market and mutual fund companies. They also face increased competition from nonbank institutions such as brokerage houses and insurance companies, as well as from financial services subsidiaries of commercial and manufacturing companies. Many of these competitors enjoy fewer regulatory constraints and some may have lower cost structures.

Securities firms and insurance companies that elect to become financial holding companies may acquire banks and other financial institutions. Combinations of this type could significantly change the competitive environment in which the Company conducts business. The financial services industry is also likely to become more competitive as further technological advances enable more companies to provide financial services. These technological advances may diminish the importance of depository institutions and other financial intermediaries in the transfer of funds between parties.

REGULATION AND SUPERVISION

The following discussion, together with Notes 3 (Cash, Loan and Dividend Restrictions) and 26 (Regulatory and Agency Capital Requirements) to Financial Statements included in the 2004 Annual Report to Stockholders, sets forth the material elements of the regulatory framework applicable to bank holding companies and their subsidiaries and provides certain information specific to us. This regulatory framework is intended to protect depositors, federal deposit insurance funds and the banking system as a whole, and not to protect security holders. To the extent that the information describes statutory and regulatory provisions, it is qualified in its entirety by reference to those provisions. Further, such statutes, regulations and policies are continually under review by Congress and state legislatures, and federal and state regulatory agencies. A change in statutes, regulations or regulatory policies applicable to us, including changes in interpretation or implementation thereof, could have a material effect on the Company’s business.

Laws and regulations could restrict our ability to diversify into other areas of financial services, acquire depository institutions, and pay dividends on our capital stock. The Company may also be required to provide financial support to one or more of its subsidiary banks, maintain capital balances in excess of those desired by management, and pay higher deposit insurance premiums as a result of a general deterioration in the financial condition of depository institutions.

General

Parent Bank Holding Company. As a bank holding company, the Parent is subject to regulation under the BHC Act and to inspection, examination and supervision by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Federal Reserve Board or FRB).

Subsidiary Banks. The Company’s subsidiary national banks are subject to regulation and examination primarily by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) and secondarily by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) and the FRB. The Company’s state-chartered banks are subject to primary federal regulation and examination by the FDIC and, in addition, are regulated and examined by their respective state banking departments.

Nonbank Subsidiaries. Many of the Company’s nonbank subsidiaries are also subject to regulation by the FRB and other applicable federal and state agencies. The Company’s brokerage subsidiaries are regulated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. and state securities regulators. The Company’s insurance subsidiaries are subject to regulation by applicable state insurance regulatory agencies. The Company’s other nonbank subsidiaries may be subject to the laws and regulations of the federal government and/or the various states in which they conduct business.

Parent Bank Holding Company Activities

“Financial in Nature” Requirement. As a bank holding company that has elected to become a financial holding company pursuant to the BHC Act, the Company may affiliate with securities firms and insurance companies and engage in other activities that are financial in nature or

4

incidental or complementary to activities that are financial in nature. “Financial in nature” activities include securities underwriting, dealing and market making, sponsoring mutual funds and investment companies, insurance underwriting and agency, merchant banking, and activities that the FRB, in consultation with the Secretary of the U.S. Treasury, determines from time to time to be financial in nature or incidental to such financial activity or is complementary to a financial activity and does not pose a safety and soundness risk.

FRB approval is not required for the Company to acquire a company (other than a bank holding company, bank or savings association) engaged in activities that are financial in nature or incidental to activities that are financial in nature, as determined by the FRB. Prior FRB approval is required before the Company may acquire the beneficial ownership or control of more than 5% of the voting shares or substantially all of the assets of a bank holding company, bank or savings association.

Because the Company is a financial holding company, if any of our subsidiary banks receives a rating under the Community Reinvestment Act of 1977, as amended (CRA), of less than satisfactory, the Company will be prohibited, until the rating is raised to satisfactory or better, from engaging in new activities or acquiring companies other than bank holding companies, banks or savings associations, except that the Company could engage in new activities, or acquire companies engaged in activities that are closely related to banking under the BHC Act. In addition, if the FRB finds that any of our subsidiary banks is not well capitalized or well managed, the Company would be required to enter into an agreement with the FRB to comply with all applicable capital and management requirements and which may contain additional limitations or conditions. Until corrected, the Company would not be able to engage in any new activity or acquire companies engaged in activities that are not closely related to banking under the BHC Act without prior FRB approval. If the Company fails to correct any such condition within a prescribed period, the FRB could order the Company to divest of its banking subsidiaries or, in the alternative, to cease engaging in activities other than those closely related to banking under the BHC Act.

The Company became a financial holding company effective March 13, 2000. It continues to maintain its status as a bank holding company for purposes of other FRB regulations.

Interstate Banking. Under the Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Act (Riegle-Neal Act), a bank holding company may acquire banks in states other than its home state, subject to any state requirement that the bank has been organized and operating for a minimum period of time, not to exceed five years, and the requirement that the bank holding company not control, prior to or following the proposed acquisition, more than 10% of the total amount of deposits of insured depository institutions nationwide or, unless the acquisition is the bank holding company’s initial entry into the state, more than 30% of such deposits in the state (or such lesser or greater amount set by the state).

The Riegle-Neal Act also authorizes banks to merge across state lines, thereby creating interstate branches. Banks are also permitted to acquire and to establish new branches in other states where authorized under the laws of those states.

5

Regulatory Approval. In determining whether to approve a proposed bank acquisition, federal bank regulators will consider, among other factors, the effect of the acquisition on competition, financial condition, and future prospects including current and projected capital ratios and levels, the competence, experience, and integrity of management and record of compliance with laws and regulation, the convenience and needs of the communities to be served, including the acquiring institution’s record of compliance under the CRA, and the effectiveness of the acquiring institution in combating money laundering activities.

Dividend Restrictions

The Parent is a legal entity separate and distinct from its subsidiary banks and other subsidiaries. Its principal source of funds to pay dividends on its common and preferred stock and principal and interest on its debt is dividends from its subsidiaries. Various federal and state statutory provisions and regulations limit the amount of dividends the Parent’s subsidiary banks and certain other subsidiaries may pay without regulatory approval. For information about the restrictions applicable to the Parent’s subsidiary banks, see Note 3 (Cash, Loan and Dividend Restrictions) to Financial Statements included in the 2004 Annual Report to Stockholders.

Federal bank regulatory agencies have the authority to prohibit the Parent’s subsidiary banks from engaging in unsafe or unsound practices in conducting their businesses. The payment of dividends, depending on the financial condition of the bank in question, could be deemed an unsafe or unsound practice. The ability of the Parent’s subsidiary banks to pay dividends in the future is currently, and could be further, influenced by bank regulatory policies and capital guidelines.

Holding Company Structure

Transfer of Funds from Subsidiary Banks. The Parent’s subsidiary banks are subject to restrictions under federal law that limit the transfer of funds or other items of value from such subsidiaries to the Parent and its nonbank subsidiaries (including affiliates) in so-called “covered transactions.” In general, covered transactions include loans and other extensions of credit, investments and asset purchases, as well as certain other transactions involving the transfer of value from a subsidiary bank to an affiliate or for the benefit of an affiliate. Unless an exemption applies, covered transactions by a subsidiary bank with a single affiliate are limited to 10% of the subsidiary bank’s capital and surplus and, with respect to all covered transactions with affiliates in the aggregate, to 20% of the subsidiary bank’s capital and surplus. Also, loans and extensions of credit to affiliates generally are required to be secured in specified amounts. A bank’s transactions with its nonbank affiliates are also generally required to be on arm’s length terms.

Source of Strength. The FRB has a policy that a bank holding company is expected to act as a source of financial and managerial strength to each of its subsidiary banks and, under appropriate circumstances, to commit resources to support each such subsidiary bank. This support may be required at times when the bank holding company may not have the resources to provide the support.

6

The OCC may order the assessment of the Parent if the capital of one of its national bank subsidiaries were to become impaired. If the Parent failed to pay the assessment within three months, the OCC could order the sale of the Parent’s stock in the national bank to cover the deficiency.

Capital loans by the Parent to any of its subsidiary banks are subordinate in right of payment to deposits and certain other indebtedness of the subsidiary bank. In addition, in the event of the Parent’s bankruptcy, any commitment by the Parent to a federal bank regulatory agency to maintain the capital of a subsidiary bank will be assumed by the bankruptcy trustee and entitled to a priority of payment.

Depositor Preference. The Federal Deposit Insurance Act (FDI Act) provides that, in the event of the “liquidation or other resolution” of an insured depository institution, the claims of depositors of the institution (including the claims of the FDIC as subrogee of insured depositors) and certain claims for administrative expenses of the FDIC as a receiver will have priority over other general unsecured claims against the institution. If an insured depository institution fails, insured and uninsured depositors, along with the FDIC, will have priority in payment ahead of unsecured, nondeposit creditors, including the Parent, with respect to any extensions of credit they have made to such insured depository institution.

Liability of Commonly Controlled Institutions. All of the Parent’s banks are insured by the FDIC. FDIC-insured depository institutions can be held liable for any loss incurred, or reasonably expected to be incurred, by the FDIC due to the default of an FDIC-insured depository institution controlled by the same bank holding company, and for any assistance provided by the FDIC to an FDIC-insured depository institution that is in danger of default and that is controlled by the same bank holding company. “Default” means generally the appointment of a conservator or receiver. “In danger of default” means generally the existence of certain conditions indicating that a default is likely to occur in the absence of regulatory assistance.

Capital Requirements

The Parent is subject to regulatory capital requirements and guidelines imposed by the FRB, which are substantially similar to the capital requirements and guidelines imposed by the FRB, the OCC and the FDIC on depository institutions within their jurisdictions. For information about these capital requirements and guidelines, see Note 26 (Regulatory and Agency Capital Requirements) to Financial Statements included in the 2004 Annual Report to Stockholders.

The FRB may set higher capital requirements for holding companies whose circumstances warrant it. For example, holding companies experiencing internal growth or making acquisitions are expected to maintain strong capital positions substantially above the minimum supervisory levels, without significant reliance on intangible assets. Also, the FRB considers a “tangible Tier 1 leverage ratio” (deducting all intangibles) and other indications of capital strength in evaluating proposals for expansion or engaging in new activities.

7

FRB, FDIC and OCC rules also require the Company to incorporate market and interest rate risk components into its regulatory capital computations. Under the market risk requirements, capital is allocated to support the amount of market risk related to a financial institution’s ongoing trading activities.

The Basel Committee on Banking Supervision continues to evaluate certain aspects of the proposed New Basel Capital Accord. The New Basel Capital Accord incorporates three pillars that address (a) minimum capital requirements, (b) supervisory review, which relates to an institution’s capital adequacy and internal assessment process, and (c) market discipline, through effective disclosure to encourage safe and sound banking practices. Embodied within these pillars are aspects of risk assessment that relate to credit risk, interest rate risk, and operational risk, among others, and certain proposed approaches by the Basel Committee to complete such assessments may be considered complex. The Company continues to monitor the status of the New Basel Capital Accord and expects final rules to be published in mid-2006, effective 2008.

From time to time, the FRB and the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC) propose changes and amendments to, and issue interpretations of, risk-based capital guidelines and related reporting instructions. Such proposals or interpretations could, if implemented in the future, affect the Company’s reported capital ratios and net risk-adjusted assets.

As an additional means to identify problems in the financial management of depository institutions, the FDI Act requires federal bank regulatory agencies to establish certain non-capital safety and soundness standards for institutions for which they are the primary federal regulator. The standards relate generally to operations and management, asset quality, interest rate exposure and executive compensation. The agencies are authorized to take action against institutions that fail to meet such standards.

The FDI Act requires federal bank regulatory agencies to take “prompt corrective action” with respect to FDIC-insured depository institutions that do not meet minimum capital requirements. A depository institution’s treatment for purposes of the prompt corrective action provisions will depend upon how its capital levels compare to various capital measures and certain other factors, as established by regulation.

Deposit Insurance Assessments

Through the Bank Insurance Fund (BIF) and the Savings Association Insurance Fund (SAIF), the FDIC insures the deposits of the Parent’s depository institution subsidiaries up to prescribed limits for each depositor. The amount of FDIC assessments paid by a BIF and SAIF member institution is based on its relative risk of default as measured by regulatory capital ratios and other factors. Specifically, the assessment rate is based on the institution’s capitalization risk category and supervisory subgroup category. An institution’s capitalization risk category is based on the FDIC’s determination of whether the institution is well capitalized, adequately capitalized or less than adequately capitalized. An institution’s supervisory subgroup category is based on the FDIC’s assessment of the financial condition of the institution and the probability that FDIC intervention or other corrective action will be required.

8

The BIF and SAIF assessment rate currently ranges from zero to 27 cents per $100 of domestic deposits. The BIF and SAIF assessment rate for the Company’s depository institutions currently is zero. The FDIC may increase or decrease the assessment rate schedule on a semi-annual basis. An increase in the assessment rate could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s earnings, depending on the amount of the increase. The FDIC is authorized to terminate a depository institution’s deposit insurance upon a finding by the FDIC that the institution’s financial condition is unsafe or unsound or that the institution has engaged in unsafe or unsound practices or has violated any applicable rule, regulation, order or condition enacted or imposed by the institution’s regulatory agency. The termination of deposit insurance for one or more of the Company’s subsidiary depository institutions could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s earnings, depending on the collective size of the particular institutions involved.

All FDIC-insured depository institutions must pay an annual assessment to provide funds for the payment of interest on bonds issued by the Financing Corporation, a federal corporation chartered under the authority of the Federal Housing Finance Board. The bonds (commonly referred to as FICO bonds) were issued to capitalize the Federal Savings and Loan Insurance Corporation. FDIC-insured depository institutions paid approximately 1.5 cents per $100 of BIF-assessable deposits in 2004. The FDIC established the FICO assessment rate effective for the first quarter of 2005 at approximately 1.4 cents annually per $100 of assessable deposits.

Fiscal and Monetary Policies

The Company’s business and earnings are affected significantly by the fiscal and monetary policies of the federal government and its agencies. The Company is particularly affected by the policies of the FRB, which regulates the supply of money and credit in the United States. Among the instruments of monetary policy available to the FRB are (a) conducting open market operations in United States government securities, (b) changing the discount rates of borrowings of depository institutions, (c) imposing or changing reserve requirements against depository institutions’ deposits, and (d) imposing or changing reserve requirements against certain borrowings by banks and their affiliates. These methods are used in varying degrees and combinations to directly affect the availability of bank loans and deposits, as well as the interest rates charged on loans and paid on deposits. The policies of the FRB may have a material effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition.

Privacy Provisions of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act

Federal banking regulators, as required under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (the GLB Act), have adopted rules limiting the ability of banks and other financial institutions to disclose nonpublic information about consumers to nonaffiliated third parties. The rules require disclosure of privacy policies to consumers and, in some circumstances, allow consumers to prevent disclosure of certain personal information to nonaffiliated third parties. The privacy provisions of the GLB Act affect how consumer information is transmitted through diversified financial services companies and conveyed to outside vendors.

9

Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (Sarbanes-Oxley) implemented a broad range of corporate governance and accounting measures to increase corporate responsibility, to provide for enhanced penalties for accounting and auditing improprieties at publicly traded companies, and to protect investors by improving the accuracy and reliability of disclosures under federal securities laws. The Company is subject to Sarbanes-Oxley because it is required to file periodic reports with the SEC under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934. Among other things, Sarbanes-Oxley and/or its implementing regulations have established new membership requirements and additional responsibilities for our audit committee, imposed restrictions on the relationship between the Company and its outside auditors (including restrictions on the types of non-audit services our auditors may provide to us), imposed additional responsibilities for our external financial statements on our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, expanded the disclosure requirements for our corporate insiders, and required our management to evaluate the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures and its internal control over financial reporting and required our auditors to issue a report on our internal control over financial reporting. The New York Stock Exchange has imposed a number of new corporate governance requirements as well.

Patriot Act

The Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 (Patriot Act) is intended to strengthen the ability of U.S. law enforcement agencies and intelligence communities to work together to combat terrorism on a variety of fronts. The Patriot Act has significant implications for depository institutions, brokers, dealers and other businesses involved in the transfer of money. The Patriot Act requires the Company to implement new or revised policies and procedures relating to anti-money laundering, compliance, suspicious activities, and currency transaction reporting and due diligence on customers. The Patriot Act also requires federal bank regulators to evaluate the effectiveness of an applicant in combating money laundering in determining whether to approve a proposed bank acquisition.

Future Legislation

Various legislation, including proposals to change substantially the financial institution regulatory system, is from time to time introduced in Congress. This legislation may change banking statutes and the operating environment of the Company in substantial and unpredictable ways. If enacted, this legislation could increase or decrease the cost of doing business, limit or expand permissible activities or affect the competitive balance among banks, savings associations, credit unions, and other financial institutions. The Company cannot predict whether any of this potential legislation will be enacted and, if enacted, the effect that it, or any implementing regulations, would have on the Company’s business, results of operations or financial condition.

The following table allocates the changes in net interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis to changes in either average balances or average rates for both interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Because of the numerous simultaneous volume and rate changes during any period, it is not possible to precisely allocate such changes between volume and rate. For this table, changes that are not solely due to either volume or rate are allocated to these categories in proportion to the percentage changes in average volume and average rate.

ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES

Indicators of the credit quality of our loan portfolio and the method of determining the allowance for credit losses, which consists of the allowance for loan losses and the reserve for unfunded credit commitments, are discussed below and in greater detail in the 2004 Annual Report to Stockholders. The ratio of the allowance for credit losses to net charge-offs was 237% and 226% at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. This ratio fluctuates from period to period and the change in 2004 is indicative of stable loss rates within the various consumer and small business lines and unsustainable low loss rates within the wholesale middle market and real estate portfolios. The ratio of the allowance for credit losses to total nonaccrual loans was 291% and 267% at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. This ratio may fluctuate significantly from period to period due to such factors as the mix of loan types in the portfolio, borrower credit strength and the value and marketability of collateral.

See Note 6 (Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses) to Financial Statements included in the 2004 Annual Report to Stockholders for a description of the process used by the Company to determine the adequacy and the components (allocated and unallocated) of the allowance for credit losses.

The allowance for credit losses was $3,950 million at December 31, 2004, and $3,891 million at December 31, 2003. At December 31, 2004, the allowance for loan losses was $3,762 million, or 1.31% of total loans, compared with $3,891 million, or 1.54%, at December 31, 2003. During 2004, the provision for credit losses was $1,717 million and net loan charge-offs totaled $1,666 million. The components of the allowance for credit losses, allocated and unallocated, are shown in the table on the previous page. The allocated component was $3,062 million at December 31, 2004 and $3,072 million at December 31, 2003, while the unallocated was $888 million at December 31, 2004, and $819 million at December 31, 2003. At December 31, 2004, the unallocated portion of the allowance for credit losses was 22% of the total allowance, compared with 21% at December 31, 2003.

The allocated component of the allowance for credit losses decreased $10 million from 2003 to 2004. Changes in allocated allowance reflect changes in statistically derived loss estimates, historical loss experience, and current trends in borrower risk and/or general economic activity on portfolio performance.

The unallocated component of the allowance for credit losses increased $69 million from 2003 to 2004, and reflects our judgment of risks and uncertainties inherent in the portfolio and other subjective factors.

No material changes in estimation methodology for the allowance for credit losses were made in 2004.

The Company considers the allowance for credit losses of $3,950 million, which includes the $188 million reserve for unfunded credit commitments, adequate to cover credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio at December 31, 2004.

The foregoing discussion contains forward-looking statements about the adequacy of the Company’s allowance for credit losses. These forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties. A number of factors—many beyond our control—could cause actual losses to be more than estimated losses. For a discussion of some of the other factors that could cause actual losses to be more than estimated losses, see “Factors That May Affect Future Results” in the “Financial Review” section of the 2004 Annual Report to Stockholders.

Exhibit 10(a)

WELLS FARGO LONG-TERM INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN
NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT

Name:	Soc. Sec. No.:
Grant Date:	Expiration Date:      [10 years from Grant Date]
Shares:	Exercise Price:

1. Grant of Option. Wells Fargo & Company (the “Company”) has granted to you an option (“Option”) to purchase                      shares (the “Shares”) of Wells Fargo & Company common stock (“Common Stock”). The Option is granted subject in all respects to the terms of the Company’s Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Plan”).

2. Term, Vesting and Exercise of Option. The term of this Option commences on [insert Grant Date] and, except as provided in paragraph 3 below, ends on [insert Expiration Date] , provided you are continuously employed by the Company or an Affiliate (“Wells Fargo”). This Option is “vested” and exercisable in full as of [insert Grant Date]. If your employment with Wells Fargo is terminated, the Option may be exercised only as described in paragraph 3 below. While you are alive, the Option may be exercised only by you or your legal representative.

To exercise all or part of the Option you must deliver a “Notice of Exercise,” in such form as the Company authorizes, along with payment as described herein of the exercise price and all applicable withholding taxes. You must pay the exercise price on the day you exercise the Option (a) in cash, (b) in whole shares of Common Stock valued at their Fair Market Value (the prior trading day’s closing price), or (c) by delivering, with your Notice of Exercise, irrevocable instructions to a broker to promptly deliver to the Company the amount of the exercise price and all applicable withholding taxes. If Stock is used to pay the exercise price (“swap transaction”), the Stock used (i) must have been owned by you for at least six months prior to the date of exercise or purchased by you in the open market; and (ii) must not have been used in a stock-for-stock swap transaction within the preceding six months. You shall not have any rights as a stockholder with respect to the Shares of Common Stock subject to the Option until you have exercised the Option for such Shares.

3. Retirement, Disability, Death or Other Termination of Employment. If your termination of employment is due to Retirement, your Option will be exercisable until the expiration date or until one year after your date of death, whichever occurs first. If you become permanently disabled while you are employed by Wells Fargo, then your Option will be exercisable until one year after your date of death or until the Option expires, whichever occurs first. If you die while you are employed by Wells Fargo, the beneficiary as set forth in the Plan may exercise the Option until one year after the date of your death or until the Option expires, whichever occurs first.

If you leave Wells Fargo’s employment for any reason other than death, permanent disability, Retirement, or discharge for cause, you may exercise the Option at any time within three (3) months after the date of termination. If you are discharged for cause, the Option will expire upon receipt by you of oral or written notice of termination.

4. Compliance and Withholding Taxes. The issuance of Shares upon the exercise of the Option shall be subject to compliance by the Company and you with all applicable requirements of law relating thereto, including withholding tax obligations, and with all applicable regulations of any stock exchange on which the Common Stock may be listed at the time of such issuance. You agree to satisfy all withholding tax obligations applicable to the acquisition of Shares under the Option or the disposition of such Shares that the Company deems necessary. Income taxes are computed based on the difference between the Fair Market Value of the Shares acquired as of the date of exercise and the exercise price for those Shares. Taxes may be paid either in cash or, if you elect, by having the Company withhold from the Shares to be issued a number of Shares (valued at their Fair Market Value as of the date of exercise) necessary to satisfy the taxes. The Company is not obligated to exercise the Option and/or deliver the Shares until all payment obligations are met.

5. Transferability of Option. The Option may be transferred only by will, the laws of descent and distribution or by your designating a beneficiary in accordance with Section 10.1(e) of the Plan.

6. No Agreement for Wells Fargo to Continue Your Employment. Nothing in this Agreement gives you any right to continued employment and Wells Fargo may terminate you at any time for any reason.

7. General Restrictions. The Company may delay the exercise of the Option if it determines that (a) the Shares subject to the Option should be listed, registered or qualified on any securities exchange or under any law, or (b) the consent of a regulatory body is desirable.

8. Additional Provisions and Interpretation of this Agreement. This Agreement is subject to the provisions of the Plan. Capitalized terms not defined in this Agreement are used as defined in the Plan. If the Plan and this Agreement are inconsistent, provisions of the Plan will govern. Interpretations of the Plan and this Agreement by the Committee are binding on you and the Company.

Exhibit 10(d)

WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
PERFORMANCE-BASED COMPENSATION POLICY
(Includes Amendments Through November 23, 2004)

     1. Purpose. The purpose of the Wells Fargo & Company Performance-Based Compensation Policy (the “Policy”) is to establish one or more performance goals for payment of incentive compensation other than stock options and the maximum amount of such incentive compensation that may be paid to certain executive officers. It is the intention of the Section 162(m) Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors of the Company that incentive compensation awarded to each Covered Executive Officer (as defined below) be deductible by the Company for federal income tax purposes in accordance with Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), any regulations promulgated thereunder, and ruling or advisory opinions published by the Internal Revenue Service related thereto (the “Regulations”).

     2. Covered Executive Officers. This Policy shall apply to any individual (a “Covered Executive Officer”) who, on the last day of a taxable year is (a) the chief executive officer of the Company or is acting in such capacity, or (b) is among the four highest compensated executive officers (other than the chief executive officer) of the Company. Whether an individual is the chief executive officer or among the four highest compensated executive officers shall be determined pursuant to the executive compensation disclosure rules under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

     3. Incentive Compensation Award/Establishment of Performance Goals. An incentive compensation award to a Covered Executive Officer may be paid in the form of cash, stock, restricted share rights, or restricted stock, or any combination thereof. Payment of an incentive compensation award to a Covered Executive Officer will be contingent upon the attainment of the performance goal or goals for the Performance Period established for such Covered Executive Officer by the Committee as provided herein. The Committee shall retain the discretion to reduce the incentive compensation award payable to a Covered Executive Officer, notwithstanding attainment of any performance goal. The incentive compensation award determined and approved by the Committee to be payable to the chief executive officer of the Company shall be submitted to the Board of Directors for ratification.

     The Committee shall establish in writing one or more performance goals to be attained (which performance goals may be stated as alternative performance goals) for a Performance Period for each Covered Executive Officer on or before the latest date permitted under Section 162(m) of the Code or the Regulations. Performance goals may be based on any one or more of the following business criteria (as defined in paragraph 4 below) as the Committee may select:

Ÿ Earnings Per Share

Ÿ Business Unit Net Earnings

Ÿ Return on Realized Common Equity

     The maximum amount of an incentive compensation award for any Performance Period to any Covered Executive Officer shall be a dollar amount not to exceed one-half of one percent (0.5%) of the Company’s Net Income (as defined below).

     4. Definitions. For purposes of this Policy and for determining whether a particular performance goal is attained, the following terms shall have the meanings given them below:

     (a) The term “Business Unit Net Earnings” shall mean the net earnings of the business unit of the Company managed by a Covered Executive Officer, as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, adjusted in accordance with the Company’s management accounting practices and conventions in effect at the beginning of the Performance Period, and as further adjusted in the same manner as provided below for Net Income.

     (b) The term “Earnings Per Share” shall mean the Company’s diluted earnings per share as reported in the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the Performance Period, adjusted in the same manner as provided below for Net Income.

     (c) The term “Net Income” shall mean the Company’s net income for the applicable Performance Period as reported in the Company’s consolidated financial statements, adjusted to eliminate the effect of (1) losses resulting from discontinued operations; (2) extraordinary gains or losses; (3) the cumulative effect of changes in generally accepted accounting principles; and (4) any other unusual or non-recurring gain or loss which is separately identified and quantified.

     (d) The term “Performance Period” shall mean a calendar year, commencing January 1 and ending December 31.

     (e) The term “Return on Realized Common Equity” shall mean the Net Income of the Company on an annualized basis less dividends accrued on outstanding preferred stock, divided by the Company’s average total common equity excluding average accumulated comprehensive income as reported in the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the Performance Period.

     5. Applicability of Certain Provisions of the Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan and the Deferred Compensation Plan to Incentive Compensation Awards. An incentive compensation award paid in stock, restricted share rights, or restricted stock pursuant to this Policy shall be governed by the provisions (other than provisions with respect to the computation of such award) of the Company’s Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan. Deferral of an incentive compensation award paid in cash under this Policy shall be made pursuant to the provisions of the Company’s Deferred Compensation Plan.

     6. Effective Date; Amendment and Termination. Subject to approval by the stockholders of the Company, this Policy shall be effective as of January 1, 2003, and shall supercede the performance-based compensation policy approved by the stockholders on April 28, 1998. No incentive compensation award shall be paid pursuant to this Policy unless this Policy has been approved by the stockholders of the Company. The Committee may at any time terminate, suspend, amend or modify this Policy except that stockholder approval shall be required for any amendment or modification to this Policy that, in the opinion of counsel, would be required by Section 162(m) of the Code or the Regulations.

SHARES AVAILABLE FOR ISSUANCE UNDER THE PLAN

     3.1 Number of Shares. An aggregate of 54,000,000 Shares (as adjusted to reflect a 1997 stock split, consisting of 14,000,000 Shares authorized on July 23, 1996, 24,000,000 Shares authorized on September 23, 1997, 24,000,000 Shares authorized on November 2, 1998 and 5,000,000 Shares authorized on September 26, 2000, 7,000,000 Shares authorized on February 26, 2002, and reduced by 20,000,000 Shares effective February 22, 2005) are available for Awards and as a basis for calculating Awards under the Plan.

ARTICLE IV
PARTICIPATION IN THE PLAN

     The Committee will have discretionary authority to select Participants from among Eligible Employees and determine the Award or Awards each Participant will receive. The Award or Awards to each Participant need not be identical. In making such selections and determinations, the Committee will consider such factors as it deems relevant to effect the purpose of the Plan. No Eligible Employee will be entitled to receive any additional Awards or otherwise further participate in the Plan solely because the Eligible Employee was previously granted an Award.

ARTICLE V
ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN

     Subject to the terms of the Plan, the Committee: (a) will have discretionary authority to determine which Eligible Employees will be Participants to whom Awards will be granted, the type and amount of each Award to be granted, the date of issuance and duration of each Award, the purchase price of each Award, and such other Award terms, conditions and restrictions and any subsequent amendments to the terms, conditions and restrictions as the Committee deems advisable; (b) may adopt such rules or guidelines as it deems appropriate to determine Eligible Employees, Participants, the terms of Awards and what other conditions or restrictions should apply to Awards made under the Plan; and (c) shall have the sole authority and responsibility to interpret and construe the terms of the Plan, including but not limited to, the entitlement of employees, Participants and beneficiaries to Options and Shares under the Plan.

ARTICLE VI
AWARDS

     6.1 Types. The Committee may grant Options and Stock Rights under the Plan having such terms, conditions and restrictions as the Committee determines.

     6.2. Price. The Committee will determine the purchase price of each Share subject to an Option, provided that such purchase price will not be less than the Fair Market Value on the date the Option is granted and in any event will not be less than the par value of the Share subject to the Option.

     6.3 Exercise Term. The Committee will determine the term of each Award, provided that (a) no Award will be exercisable after ten years from the date of grant, (b) no Award will be exercisable unless a registration statement for the Shares, if any, underlying the Award is then in effect under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or unless in the opinion of legal counsel registration under such Act is not required, (c) except pursuant to Section 7.3 of the Plan or as determined by the Committee in the case of death, Disability or Retirement pursuant to Section 7.1.1 of the Plan, no Award shall become exercisable within six months after the date of grant, and (d) the Committee may

-4-

delay exercise of an Award to the extent the Committee deems it in the best interests of the Company.

     6.4 Payment of Purchase Price. Upon exercise of an Option or Stock Right that requires a payment from the Participant to the Company, the amount due the Company must be paid by cash unless the Committee determines otherwise. The Committee may, either at the time an Option is granted or any time before it is exercised, subject to such limitations as the Committee may determine, authorize payment of the Option purchase price by delivery to the Company of irrevocable instructions to a broker, or some other communication as is authorized by the Company’s Executive Vice President of Human Resources, requiring prompt delivery to the Company of the amount of sale proceeds to pay the Option purchase price and all applicable withholding taxes resulting from the exercise of the Option.

     6.5 Award Notice. Each Award will be evidenced by an Award Notice containing the following: (a) the terms, conditions and restrictions of the Award; (b) if an Option, the purchase price and acceptable methods of payment of the purchase price; (c) the Award’s duration; (d) the effect on the Award of the Participant’s death, Disability, Retirement or other termination of employment; and (c) the restrictions against transfer, if any, on the Award or the Shares subject to the Award. The form of the Award Notice may be different for each Option grant or other Award.

     6.6 Withholding Taxes. The Company and its Affiliates have the right to withhold, at the time any distribution is made under the Plan, whether in cash or in Shares, or at the time any Award is exercised, all amounts necessary to satisfy federal, state and local withholding requirements related to such distribution or exercise. Any required withholding may be satisfied by cash or, if permitted by the Committee, by the Company’s withholding of Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld.

ARTICLE VII
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

     7.1 Termination of Employment.

          7.1.1 Due to Death, Disability or Retirement. If a Participant ceases to be an Eligible Employee by reason of the Participant’s Disability or Retirement, the Participant’s Awards will be exercisable for such period or periods as the Committee determines. If a Participant ceases to be an Eligible Employee by reason of the Participant’s death, the person or persons surviving at the time of the Participant’s death in the first of the following classes of beneficiaries in which there is a survivor, shall be entitled to exercise the Participant’s Awards for such period or periods as the Committee determines. If a person in the class surviving dies before exercising the Participant’s Awards, that person’s right to receive and exercise the Awards will lapse and the exercise entitlement will be determined as if that person predeceased the Participant.

-5-

(a)	Participant’s surviving spouse;
(b)	Equally to the Participant’s children, except that if any of the Participant’s children predecease the Participant but leave descendants surviving, such descendants shall take by right of representation the share their parent would have taken if living;
(c)	Participant’s surviving parents equally;
(d)	Participant’s surviving brothers and sisters equally; or
(e)	Representative of the Participant’s estate.

          7.1.2 Other than Due to Death, Disability or Retirement. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee, if a Participant ceases to be an Eligible Employee for any reason other than death, Disability or Retirement, including because the Participant’s employer is no longer an Affiliate, all of the Participant’s Awards will terminate without notice of any kind.

          7.1.3 Intercompany Transfers. Transfers of a Participant’s employment between the Company and an Affiliate or between Affiliates will not by itself constitute termination of the Participant’s Eligible Employee status for purposes of any Award.

     7.2 Nontransferability. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee, (a) an Award may be exercised during a Participant’s lifetime only by the Participant or the Participant’s legal guardian or legal representative, (b) an Award may be exercised after the Participant’s death only as provided in Section 7.1.1 of the Plan, and (c) no Award may be assigned or otherwise transferred by the Participant to whom it was granted.

     7.3 Change in Control. On the date that (a) substantially all of the assets of the Company are acquired by another corporation, (b) there is a reorganization of the Company involving an acquisition of the Company by another entity, or (c) a majority of the Board shall be persons other than persons (i) for whose election proxies shall have been solicited by the Board or (ii) who are then serving as directors appointed by the Board to fill vacancies on the Board caused by death or resignation (but not by removal) or to fill newly-created directorships, then (1) all Options and other Awards that require exercise by Participants and/or payment by Participants to the Company will become immediately exercisable in full and (2) with respect to all other Awards, all conditions or restrictions to the receipt thereof will immediately terminate.

     7.4 No Employment Contract. Neither the adoption of the Plan nor the grant of any Award will (a) confer upon any Eligible Employee any right to continued employment with the Company or any Affiliate or (b) interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any Affiliate to terminate at any time the employment of any Eligible Employee.

-6-

     7.5 Amendment or Termination of Plan. The Board or the Human Resources Committee of the Board may at any time terminate, suspend or amend the Plan.

     7.6 Duration of the Plan. The Plan will become effective upon its approval by the Board and, unless earlier terminated, will remain in effect until all Shares available for issuance under the Plan have been issued.

     7.7 Reservation of Board Authority. Any action under the Plan required or permitted to be taken by the Committee may be taken by the Board or any other duly authorized committee of the Board.

These computations are included herein in compliance with Securities and Exchange Commission regulations. However, management believes that fixed charge ratios are not meaningful measures for the business of the Company because of two factors. First, even if there were no change in net income, the ratios would decline with an increase in the proportion of income which is tax-exempt or, conversely, they would increase with a decrease in the proportion of income which is tax-exempt. Second, even if there were no change in net income, the ratios would decline if interest income and interest expense increase by the same amount due to an increase in the level of interest rates or, conversely, they would increase if interest income and interest expense decrease by the same amount due to a decrease in the level of interest rates.

      This Annual Report, including the Financial Review and the Financial Statements and related Notes, has forward-looking statements, which include forecasts of our financial results and condition, expectations for our operations and business, and our assumptions for those forecasts and expectations. Do not unduly rely on forward-looking statements. Actual results might differ significantly from our forecasts and expectations. Please refer to “Factors that May Affect Future Results” for a discussion of some factors that may cause results to differ.

Overview

Wells Fargo & Company is a $428 billion diversified financial services company providing banking, insurance, investments, mortgage banking and consumer finance through banking stores, the internet and other distribution channels to consumers, businesses and institutions in all 50 states of the U.S. and in other countries. We ranked fifth in assets and fourth in market value of our common stock among U.S. bank holding companies at December 31, 2004. When we refer to “the Company”, “we”, “our” and “us” in this report, we mean Wells Fargo & Company and Subsidiaries (consolidated). When we refer to the Parent, we mean Wells Fargo & Company.

      2004 was another exceptional year for our company, with record diluted earnings per share of $4.09, record net income of $7.0 billion and solid market share growth across our more than 80 businesses. Because these results would not have been possible without the customer focus and dedication of our exceptional team, at the end of 2004 we committed to make a special contribution in shares of Wells Fargo common stock to the 401(k) Plan accounts of eligible team members, equaling 1% of a team member’s pay, up to a maximum contribution of $750, resulting in an additional $44 million in employee benefits expense.

      Our growth in earnings per share was driven by revenue growth, operating leverage (revenue growth in excess of expense growth) and improved credit quality. Our primary sources of earnings are driven by lending and deposit taking activities, which generate net interest income, and providing financial services that generate fee income.

      Revenue grew 6% from 2003. Combined revenue in all of our businesses other than Wells Fargo Home Mortgage (Home Mortgage), which had exceptional revenue in 2003 due to the refinance boom, grew 11% this year. In addition to double-digit growth in earnings per share, we also had double-digit growth in loans and retail core deposits and continued strong credit quality for the year. We have been achieving these results not just for one, two, or even five years, as many companies have done, but for the past 20 years, through many different economic cycles. Our compound annual growth rate over the past 20 years has averaged 13% in revenue, averaged 14% in earnings per share, and our total compound annual stockholder return has been 23% compared with 13% for the S&P 500^®. Our total compound annual stockholder return, including reinvestment of dividends, has been about 10 percentage points above the S&P 500 for each of the past five, ten, 15 and 20 year periods.

      

      We have a 20-year history of investing in our company, and 2004 was one of our highest investment years ever. Companies must reinvest to consistently grow profits and revenue at double-digit rates over time. We achieved record results in 2004 while making very significant investments throughout the year to benefit future performance, including opening 177 new stores, increasing the number of team members serving our customers by over 5,000, committing to add Wells Fargo stock to every eligible team member’s 401(k) account to thank them for all their efforts, making significant incremental investments in electronic imaging, call centers and other technology projects, integrating acquisitions, and improving future margins by incurring the costs of extinguishing high interest rate debt and selling low yielding assets. We continued to support our communities by taking a $217 million charitable contribution expense in fourth quarter 2004, to be funded by tax-advantaged venture capital gains, helping ensure that the Wells Fargo Foundation remains well funded over the next eight to ten years.

      In 2004, we became one of the nation’s 20 largest mutual fund companies with the acquisition of $29 billion in assets under management from Strong Financial Corporation (Strong Financial). Our stock hit a record high close of $63.25 in December 2004. Our solid financial performance enables us to be one of the top givers to non-profits among all U.S. companies. We continue to be the only “Aaa” rated bank in the U.S., the highest possible credit rating.

34

      Our corporate vision is to satisfy all the financial needs of our customers, help them succeed financially, be recognized as the premier financial services company in our markets and be one of America’s great companies. Our primary strategy to achieve this vision is to increase the number of products we provide to our customers and to focus on providing each customer with all of the financial products that fulfill their needs. Our cross-sell strategy and diversified business model facilitate growth in strong and weak economic cycles, as we can grow by expanding the number of products our current customers have with us. We estimate that our average banking household now has 4.6 products with us, which we believe is among the highest, if not the highest, in our industry. Our goal is eight products per customer, which is currently half of our estimate of potential demand.

      Our core products grew this year as follows:

• Average loans grew by 26%;

• Average retail core deposits grew by 11% (average core deposits grew by 8%); and

• Assets managed and administered were up 22%.

      We believe it is important to maintain a well-controlled environment as we continue to grow our businesses. We manage our credit risk by maintaining prudent credit policies and continuously examining our credit process. In 2004, nonperforming loans and net charge-offs as a percentage of loans outstanding declined from the prior year. Asset quality improved in 2004 compared with a year ago, with net charge-offs down 3% and nonperforming assets (including nonaccrual loans and foreclosed assets) down 5%. We manage the interest rate and market risks inherent in our asset and liability balances within prudent ranges, while ensuring adequate liquidity and funding. Our stockholder value has increased over time due to customer satisfaction, strong financial results, reinvestment in our businesses and the prudent way we attempt to manage our business risks.

      Our financial results included the following:

      Net income in 2004 increased 13% to $7.0 billion from $6.2 billion in 2003. Diluted earnings per common share increased 12% to $4.09 in 2004 from $3.65 in 2003. In

addition to incremental investments in new stores, sales-focused team members and technology, 2004 results included $217 million ($.08 per share) of charitable contribution expense for the Wells Fargo Foundation, $44 million ($.02 per share) for the special 401(k) contribution and $19 million ($.01 per share) in integration expense related to the Strong Financial transaction. We also took significant actions to reposition our balance sheet in 2004 designed to improve earning asset yields and to reduce long-term debt costs. The extinguishment of high interest rate debt reduced earnings by $.06 per share for 2004. Return on average assets was 1.71% and return on average common equity was 19.56% in 2004, up from 1.64% and 19.36%, respectively, for 2003.

      Net interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis was $17.3 billion in 2004, compared with $16.1 billion a year ago. The net interest margin was 4.89% for 2004, compared with 5.08% in 2003.

      Noninterest income was $12.9 billion in 2004, compared with $12.4 billion in 2003, an increase of 4%, driven by growth across our business, with particular strength in trust, investment and IRA fees, credit and debit card fees, loan fees and gains on equity investments.

      Revenue, the sum of net interest income and noninterest income, increased 6% to a record $30.1 billion in 2004 from $28.4 billion in 2003, despite a 37% decrease in mortgage originations as the refinance driven market declined from its exceptional 2003 level. Despite our balance sheet repositioning actions during the year, which reduced revenue growth by approximately 1 percentage point due to the loss on sale of lower yielding assets, and our significant level of investment spending, operating leverage improved during 2004 with revenue growing 6% and noninterest expense up only 2%. For the year, Home Mortgage revenue declined $807 million, or 16%, from $5.2 billion in 2003 to $4.4 billion in 2004.

      Noninterest expense totaled $17.6 billion in 2004, compared with $17.2 billion in 2003, an increase of 2%. In 2005, we expect to incur integration expense of approximately $.02 per share for the balance of the Strong Financial transaction and for the pending acquisition of Houston-based First Community Capital Corporation. We will expense stock options, as required, beginning July 1, 2005, and we estimate the effect of expensing current outstanding options will reduce earnings by $.03 per share for the last half of 2005.

      During 2004, net charge-offs were $1.67 billion, or .62% of average total loans, compared with $1.72 billion, or .81%, during 2003. The provision for credit losses was $1.72 billion in 2004, flat compared with 2003. The allowance for credit losses, which comprises the allowance for loan losses and the reserve for unfunded credit commitments, was $3.95 billion, or 1.37% of total loans, at December 31, 2004, compared with $3.89 billion, or 1.54%, at December 31, 2003.

      At December 31, 2004, total nonaccrual loans were $1.36 billion, or .47% of total loans, down from $1.46 billion, or .58%, at December 31, 2003. Foreclosed assets were $212 million at December 31, 2004, compared with $198 million at December 31, 2003.

      The ratio of stockholders’ equity to total assets was 8.85% at December 31, 2004, compared with 8.89% at December 31, 2003. Our total risk-based capital (RBC) ratio at December 31, 2004 was 12.07% and our Tier 1 RBC ratio was 8.41%, exceeding the minimum regulatory guidelines of 8% and 4%, respectively, for bank holding companies. Our RBC ratios at December 31, 2003 were 12.21% and 8.42%, respectively. Our Tier 1 leverage ratios were 7.08% and 6.93% at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively, exceeding the minimum regulatory guideline of 3% for bank holding companies.

Recent Accounting Standards
On December 8, 2003, President Bush signed the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 (the Act). The Act introduces a prescription drug benefit under Medicare as well as a federal subsidy to plan sponsors that provide a benefit that is at least equivalent to Medicare. Specific authoritative guidance on the accounting for the federal subsidy has been issued through the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Staff Position 106-2 (FSP 106-2), Accounting and Disclosure Requirements Related to the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003, which was issued in May 2004. We adopted FSP 106-2 prospectively effective July 1, 2004, and the adoption did not have a material impact on either our accumulated postretirement benefit obligation or our net periodic postretirement benefit cost during 2004.

      On December 12, 2003, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued Statement of Position 03-3 (SOP 03-3), Accounting for Certain Loans or Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer, which addresses the accounting for certain loans acquired in a transfer when it is probable, at acquisition, that the investor will be unable to collect all contractually required payments receivable. SOP 03-3 is applied prospectively, effective for loans acquired beginning January 1, 2005. SOP 03-3 requires acquired loans with evidence of credit deterioration to be recorded at fair value and prohibits recording any valuation allowance related to such loans at the time of purchase. This SOP limits the yield that may be accreted on such loans to the excess of the investor’s estimated cash flows over its initial investment in the loan. Subsequent increases in cash flows expected to be collected are recognized prospectively through adjustment of the loan’s yield over its remaining life. Decreases in cash flows expected to be collected are recognized as impairment. Mortgage loans held for sale and loans to borrowers in good standing under revolving credit agreements are excluded from the scope of SOP 03-3.

      On July 16, 2004, the FASB ratified the decisions reached by the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) with respect to Issue No. 02-14 (EITF 02-14), Whether the Equity Method of Accounting Applies When an Investor Does Not Have an Investment in Voting Stock of an Investee but Exercises Significant Influence through Other Means. The EITF reached a consensus that an investor should apply the equity method of accounting when it has investments in either common stock or “in-substance common stock” of a corporation, provided that the investor has the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of the investee. In-substance common stock, as defined in the consensus, is an investment that has risk and reward

characteristics, among other factors, that are substantially the same as common stock. We adopted the consensus reached in EITF 02-14 during 2004 and the adoption did not have a material effect on our financial statements.

      On October 13, 2004, the FASB ratified the consensus reached by the EITF at its September 29–30 and June 30–July 1 meetings with respect to Issue No. 04-8 (EITF 04-8), The Effect of Contingently Convertible Instruments on Diluted Earnings Per Share. This consensus requires instruments with contingent conversion features that are based on the market price of an entity’s own stock, even though the market price trigger has not been met, to be included in the computation of diluted earnings per share. EITF 04-8 became effective for periods ending after December 15, 2004. However, the determination of the dilutive effect upon adoption of EITF 04-8, if any, is based on the form of the instrument that existed at December 31, 2004.

      In November 2004, we amended the indenture under which the Company’s Floating Rate Convertible Senior Debentures due 2033 (the Debentures) were issued to eliminate a provision in the indenture that prohibited us from paying cash upon conversion of the Debentures if an event of default, as defined in the indenture, exists at the time of conversion. We then made an irrevocable election under the indenture that obligates us to deliver, upon conversion of the Debentures, cash in an amount equal to at least the original principal amount of the converted Debentures and cash or common stock or a combination of cash and common stock for any amount in excess of such original principal amount. As a result of these actions, none of the shares of common stock underlying the Debentures currently would be considered outstanding for the purposes of calculating diluted earnings per share under EITF 04-8.

      On December 16, 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (FAS 123R), which replaces FAS 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, and supersedes Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. The scope of FAS 123R includes a wide range of stock-based compensation arrangements including stock options, restricted stock plans, performance-based awards, stock appreciation rights, and employee stock purchase plans. FAS 123R requires us to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the fair value of the award on the grant date. That cost must be recognized in the income statement over the vesting period of the award. Because market prices are generally not available for most employee stock options, the grant-date fair value must be estimated using an option-pricing model. FAS 123R applies to all awards granted after July 1, 2005 and to awards modified, repurchased, or cancelled after July 1, 2005. We will adopt

37

FAS 123R effective July 1, 2005, as required, and will use the “modified prospective” transition method. Under this method, awards that are granted, modified, or settled after July 1, 2005, will be measured and accounted for in accordance with FAS 123R. In addition, beginning July 1, 2005, expense must be recognized in the income statement for

unvested awards that were granted prior to July 1, 2005. The expense will be based on the fair value determined at grant date under FAS 123. We estimate that our earnings per share in the second half of 2005 will be reduced by $.03 as a result of implementing FAS 123R.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our significant accounting policies (described in Note 1 (Summary of Significant Accounting Policies) to Financial Statements) are fundamental to understanding our results of operations and financial condition, because some accounting policies require that we use estimates and assumptions that may affect the value of our assets or liabilities and financial results. Three of these policies are critical because they require management to make difficult, subjective and complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain and because it is likely that materially different amounts would be reported under different conditions or using different assumptions. These policies govern the allowance for credit losses, the valuation of mortgage servicing rights and pension accounting. Management has reviewed and approved these critical accounting policies and has discussed these policies with the Audit and Examination Committee.

Allowance for Credit Losses
The allowance for credit losses, which comprises the allowance for loan losses and the reserve for unfunded credit commitments, is management’s estimate of credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. We have an established process, using several analytical tools and benchmarks, to calculate a range of possible outcomes and determine the adequacy of the allowance. No single statistic or measurement determines the adequacy of the allowance. Loan recoveries and the provision for credit losses increase the allowance, while loan charge-offs decrease the allowance.

PROCESS TO DETERMINE THE ADEQUACY OF THE ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES
For analytical purposes only, we allocate a portion of the allowance to specific loan categories (the allocated allowance). The entire allowance (both allocated and unallocated), however, is used to absorb credit losses inherent in the total loan portfolio.

      Approximately two-thirds of the allocated allowance is determined at a pooled level for retail loan portfolios (consumer loans and leases, home mortgage loans and some segments of small business loans). We use forecasting models to measure the losses inherent in these portfolios. We frequently validate and update these models to capture the recent behavioral characteristics of the portfolios, as well as any changes in our loss mitigation or marketing strategies.

      We use a standardized loan grading process for wholesale loan portfolios (commercial loans, commercial real estate and construction loans and leases). Based on this process, we assign a loss factor to each pool of graded loans and a loan equivalent amount of unfunded loan commitments and letters of credit. For graded loans with evidence of credit weakness at the balance sheet date, the loss factors are derived from migration models that track loss content associated with actual portfolio movements between loan grades over a specified period of time. For graded loans without evidence of credit weakness at the balance sheet date, we use a combination of our long-term average loss experience and external loss data. In addition, we individually review nonperforming loans over $3 million for impairment based on cash flows or collateral. We include the impairment on nonperforming loans in the allocated allowance unless it has already been recognized as a loss.

      The allocated allowance is supplemented by the unallocated allowance to adjust for imprecision and to incorporate the range of probable outcomes inherent in estimates used for the allocated allowance. The unallocated allowance is the result of our judgment of risks inherent in the portfolio, economic uncertainties, historical loss experience and other subjective factors, including industry trends, not reflected in the allocated allowance.

      The ratios of the allocated allowance and the unallocated allowance to the total allowance may change from period to period. The total allowance reflects management’s estimate of credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date.

      The allowance for credit losses, and the resulting provision, is based on judgments and assumptions, including (1) general economic conditions, (2) loan portfolio composition, (3) loan loss experience, (4) management’s evaluation of the credit risk relating to pools of loans and individual borrowers, (5) sensitivity analysis and expected loss models and (6) observations from our internal auditors, internal loan review staff or our banking regulators.

      To estimate the possible range of allowance required at December 31, 2004, and the related change in provision expense, we assumed the following scenarios of a reasonably possible deterioration or improvement in loan credit quality.

38

Assumptions for deterioration in loan credit quality were:

• For retail loans, a 15 basis point increase in estimated loss rates from actual 2004 loss levels; and

• For wholesale loans, a 20 basis point increase in estimated loss rates, moving closer to historical averages.

Assumptions for improvement in loan credit quality were:

• For retail loans, a 5 basis point decrease in estimated loss rates from actual 2004 loss levels; and

• For wholesale loans, no improvement in actual 2004 loss levels.

      Under the assumptions for deterioration in loan credit quality, another $470 million in expected losses could occur and under the assumptions for improvement, a $70 million reduction in expected losses could occur.

      Changes in the estimate of the allowance for credit losses can materially affect net income. The example above is only one of a number of reasonably possible scenarios. Determining the allowance for credit losses requires us to make forecasts that are highly uncertain and require a high degree of judgment.

Valuation of Mortgage Servicing Rights
We recognize the rights to service mortgage loans for others, or mortgage servicing rights (MSRs), as assets, whether we purchase the servicing rights, or keep them after the sale or securitization of loans we originated. Purchased MSRs are capitalized at cost. Originated MSRs are recorded based on the relative fair value of the retained servicing right and the mortgage loan on the date the mortgage loan is sold. Both purchased and originated MSRs are carried at the lower of (1) the capitalized amount, net of accumulated amortization and hedge accounting adjustments, or (2) fair value. If MSRs are designated as a hedged item in a fair value hedge, the MSRs’ carrying value is adjusted for changes in fair value resulting from the application of hedge accounting. The adjustment becomes part of the carrying value. The carrying value of these MSRs is subject to a fair value test under FAS 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities.

      MSRs are amortized in proportion to and over the period of estimated net servicing income. We analyze the amortization of MSRs monthly and adjust amortization to reflect changes in prepayment speeds and discount rates.

      We determine the fair value of MSRs using a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income. The model incorporates assumptions that market participants use in estimating future net servicing income, including estimates of prepayment speeds, discount rate, cost to service, escrow account earnings, contractual servicing fee income, ancillary income and late fees. The valuation of MSRs is discussed further in this section and in Notes 1 (Summary of Significant Accounting Policies), 21 (Securitizations and Variable Interest Entities) and 22 (Mortgage Banking Activities) to Financial Statements.

      Each quarter, we evaluate MSRs for possible impairment based on the difference between the carrying amount and current estimated fair value under FAS 140. To evaluate and measure impairment we stratify the portfolio based on certain risk characteristics, including loan type and note rate. If temporary impairment exists, we establish a valuation allowance through a charge to net income for any excess of amortized cost over the current fair value, by risk stratification. If we later determine that all or part of the temporary impairment no longer exists for a particular risk stratification, we may reduce the valuation allowance through an increase to net income.

      Under our policy, we also evaluate other-than-temporary impairment of MSRs by considering both historical and projected trends in interest rates, pay-off activity and whether the impairment could be recovered through interest rate increases. We recognize a direct write-down if we determine that the recoverability of a recorded valuation allowance is remote. A direct write-down permanently reduces the carrying value of the MSRs, while a valuation allowance (temporary impairment) can be reversed.

      To reduce the sensitivity of earnings to interest rate and market value fluctuations, we hedge the change in value of MSRs primarily with derivative contracts. Reductions or increases in the value of the MSRs are generally offset by gains or losses in the value of the derivative. If the reduction or increase in the value of the MSRs is not offset, we immediately recognize a gain or loss for the portion of the amount that is not offset (hedge ineffectiveness). We do not fully hedge MSRs because origination volume is a “natural hedge,” (i.e., as interest rates decline, servicing values decrease and fees from origination volume increase). Conversely, as interest rates increase, the value of the MSRs increases, while fees from origination volume tend to decline.

      Servicing fees—net of amortization, provision for impairment and gain or loss on the ineffective portion and the portion of the derivatives excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness—are recorded in mortgage banking noninterest income.

      We use a dynamic and sophisticated model to estimate the value of our MSRs. Mortgage loan prepayment speed—a key assumption in the model—is the annual rate at which borrowers are forecasted to repay their mortgage loan principal. The discount rate—another key assumption in the model—is equal to what we believe the required rate of return would be for an asset with similar risk. To determine the discount rate, we consider the risk premium for uncertainties from servicing operations (e.g., possible changes in future servicing costs, ancillary income and earnings on escrow accounts). Both assumptions can and generally will change in quarterly and annual valuations as market conditions and interest rates change. Senior management reviews all assumptions quarterly.

39

      Our key economic assumptions and the sensitivity of the current fair value of MSRs to an immediate adverse change in those assumptions are shown in Note 21 (Securitizations and Variable Interest Entities) to Financial Statements.

      There have been significant market-driven fluctuations in loan prepayment speeds and the discount rate in recent years. These fluctuations could be rapid and significant in the future. Therefore, estimating prepayment speeds within a range that market participants would use in determining the fair value of MSRs requires significant management judgment.

Pension Accounting
We use four key variables to calculate our annual pension cost; (1) size and characteristics of the employee population, (2) actuarial assumptions, (3) expected long-term rate of return on plan assets, and (4) discount rate. We describe below the effect of each of these variables on our pension expense.

SIZE AND CHARACTERISTICS OF THE EMPLOYEE POPULATION
Pension expense is directly related to the number of employees covered by the plans, and other factors including salary, age and years of employment. The number of our employees eligible for pension benefits has steadily increased over the last few years, causing a proportional growth in pension expense.

ACTUARIAL ASSUMPTIONS
To estimate the projected benefit obligation, actuarial assumptions are required about factors such as mortality rate, turnover rate, retirement rate, disability rate and the rate of compensation increases. These factors don’t tend to change significantly over time, so the range of assumptions, and their impact on pension expense, is generally narrow.

EXPECTED LONG-TERM RATE OF RETURN ON PLAN ASSETS
We calculate the expected return on plan assets each year based on the composition of assets at the beginning of the plan year and the expected long-term rate of return on that portfolio. The expected long-term rate of return is designed to approximate the actual long-term rate of return on the plan assets over time and is not expected to change significantly. Therefore the pattern of income/expense recognition closely matches the stable pattern of services provided by our employees over the life of the pension obligation.

      To determine if the expected rate of return is reasonable, we consider such factors as (1) the actual return earned on plan assets, (2) historical rates of return on the various asset classes in the plan portfolio, (3) projections of returns on various asset classes, and (4) current/prospective capital market conditions and economic forecasts. We have used an expected rate of return of 9% on plan assets for the past eight years. Over the last two decades, the plan assets have actually earned an average annualized rate of return higher than 9%. Differences in each year, if any, between expected and actual returns are included in our unrecognized net actuarial gain or loss amount. We generally amortize any unrecognized net actuarial gain or loss in excess of a 5% corridor (as defined in FAS 87, Employers’ Accounting for Pensions) in net periodic pension calculations over the next five years. Our average remaining service period is approximately 11 years. See Note 16 (Employee Benefits and Other Expenses) to Financial Statements for details on changes in the pension benefit obligation and the fair value of plan assets.

      We use November 30 as a measurement date for our pension asset and projected benefit obligation balances. If we were to assume a 1% increase/decrease in the expected long-term rate of return, holding the discount rate and other actuarial assumptions constant, pension expense would decrease/increase by approximately $44 million.

DISCOUNT RATE
We use the discount rate to determine the present value of our future benefit obligations. It reflects the rates available on long-term high-quality fixed-income debt instruments, reset annually on the measurement date. We lowered our discount rate to 6% in 2004 from 6.5% in 2003 and 7% in 2002, reflecting the decline in market interest rates during these periods.

      If we were to assume a 1% increase in the discount rate, and keep the expected long-term rate of return and other actuarial assumptions constant, pension expense would decrease by approximately $62 million; if we were to assume a 1% decrease in the discount rate, and keep other assumptions constant, pension expense would increase by approximately $90 million. The decrease to pension expense based on a 1% increase in discount rate differs from the increase to pension expense based on a 1% decrease in discount rate due to the 5% corridor.

Earnings Performance

Net Interest Income
Net interest income is the interest earned on debt securities, loans (including yield-related loan fees) and other interest-earning assets minus the interest paid for deposits and long-term and short-term debt. The net interest margin is the average yield on earning assets minus the average interest rate paid for deposits and our other sources of funding. Net interest income and the net interest margin are presented on a taxable-equivalent basis to consistently reflect income from taxable and tax-exempt loans and securities based on a 35% marginal tax rate.

      Net interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis was $17.3 billion in 2004, compared with $16.1 billion in 2003, an increase of 7%. The increase was primarily due to strong consumer loan growth, particularly in mortgage products. The benefit of this growth was partially offset by lower loan yields as new volumes were added below the portfolio average.

      The net interest margin for 2004 decreased to 4.89% from 5.08% in 2003. The decrease was primarily due to lower investment portfolio yields following maturities and prepayments of higher yielding mortgage-backed securities, and the addition of new consumer and commercial loans with yields below the existing portfolio average. These factors were partially offset by the benefits of balance sheet repositioning actions taken in 2004.

      Average earning assets increased $36.2 billion in 2004 from 2003 due to increases in average loans and debt securities available for sale, offset by a decline in average mortgages held for sale. Loans averaged $269.6 billion in

2004, compared with $213.1 billion in 2003. The increase was largely due to growth in mortgage and home equity products. Average mortgages held for sale decreased to $32.3 billion in 2004 from $58.7 billion in 2003, due to a 37% decrease in mortgage originations as the refinance driven market declined from its exceptional 2003 level. Debt securities available for sale averaged $33.1 billion in 2004, compared with $27.3 billion in 2003.

      Average core deposits are an important contributor to growth in net interest income and the net interest margin. This low-cost source of funding rose 8% from 2003. Total average retail core deposits, which exclude Wholesale Banking core deposits and mortgage escrow deposits, for 2004 grew $17.8 billion, or 11%, from a year ago. Average mortgage escrow deposits declined to $14.1 billion in 2004 from $18.9 billion in 2003. Average core deposits were $223.4 billion and $207.0 billion and funded 54.4% and 54.8% of average total assets in 2004 and 2003, respectively. While savings certificates of deposits declined on average from $20.9 billion to $18.9 billion, noninterest-bearing checking accounts and other core deposit categories increased on average from $186.1 billion in 2003 to $204.5 billion in 2004 reflecting growth in consumer and business primary account relationships. Total average interest-bearing deposits increased to $182.6 billion in 2004 from $161.7 billion a year ago. Total average noninterest-bearing deposits increased to $79.3 billion in 2004 from $76.8 billion a year ago.

      Service charges on deposit accounts increased 5% to $2,417 million in 2004 from $2,297 million in 2003 due to growth in core deposits and increased activity.

      We earn trust, investment and IRA fees from managing and administering assets, which include mutual funds, corporate trust, personal trust, employee benefit trust and agency assets. Generally, these fees are based on the market value of the assets that are managed, administered, or both. At December 31, 2004, our managed and administered assets totaled approximately $705 billion, up from $576 billion at December 31, 2003. This increase included $24 billion in mutual fund assets and $5 billion in institutional investment accounts acquired from Strong Financial Corporation (Strong Financial) at December 31, 2004. When the merger of the Wells Fargo Funds^® and certain Strong Financial funds is completed in second quarter 2005, we will rename our mutual fund family the Wells Fargo Advantage Funds^SM. The increase in trust, investment and IRA fees was primarily due to growth in assets, successful efforts to grow businesses, and modest fill-in acquisitions (excluding the year-end Strong Financial transaction).

      Additionally, we receive commission and other fees for providing services for retail and discount brokerage customers.

At December 31, 2004 and 2003, brokerage balances were approximately $86 billion and $78 billion, respectively. Generally, these fees are based on the number of transactions executed at the customer’s direction.

      Card fees increased 14% to $1,230 million in 2004 from $1,079 million in 2003 predominantly due to increases in credit card accounts and credit and debit card transaction volume.

      Other fees increased 14% to $1,779 million in 2004 from $1,560 million in 2003 due to the increase in loan fees as a result of growth in the portfolio.

      Mortgage banking noninterest income was $1,860 million in 2004, compared with $2,512 million in 2003. Net servicing fees reflected income of $1,037 million in 2004 compared with losses of $954 million in 2003. Servicing fees are presented net of amortization and impairment of mortgage servicing rights (MSRs) and gains and losses from hedge ineffectiveness, which are all influenced by both the level and direction of mortgage interest rates. The increase in net servicing fees in 2004, compared with the prior year, reflected a reduction of $934 million in amortization due to an increase in average interest rates and higher gross servicing fees resulting from growth in the servicing portfolio. In addition, to reflect the higher value of our MSRs, we reversed $208 million of the valuation allowance in 2004, compared with an impairment provision of $1,092 million in 2003. Net derivative gains on fair value hedges of our MSRs were $554 million and $1,111 million in 2004 and 2003, respectively. (For further discussion of hedge accounting for MSRs see Note 27 (Derivatives – Fair Value Hedges) to Financial Statements.)

      Net gains on mortgage loan origination/sales activities were $539 million in 2004, compared with $3,019 million for 2003. The lower level of gains in 2004 compared with 2003 reflected lower origination volume and a decrease in margins due primarily to the increase in average interest rates and lower consumer demand. Originations during 2004 declined to $298 billion from $470 billion in 2003.

      Net losses on debt securities were $15 million for 2004, compared with net gains of $4 million for 2003. Net gains from equity investments were $394 million in 2004, compared with gains of $55 million in 2003 due to improved market conditions.

      We routinely review our investment portfolios and recognize impairment write-downs based primarily on issuer-specific factors and results, and our intent to hold such securities. We also consider general economic and market conditions, including industries in which venture capital investments are made, and adverse changes affecting the availability of venture capital. We determine impairment based on all of the information available at the time of the assessment, but new information or economic developments in the future could result in recognition of additional impairment.

      “All other” noninterest income for 2003 was offset by $163 million of losses on the early retirement of $2.6 billion of term debt that was previously issued at higher costs.

      Noninterest expense in 2004 increased only 2%, including the net losses on extinguishment of debt and additional investments made in new stores, technology and additional sales and service team members, offset by a reduction in Home Mortgage production costs. Employee benefits expense included the $44 million special 401(k) contribution. Noninterest expense for 2004 included a $217 million expense for a charitable contribution to our Foundation, to be funded by tax-advantaged venture capital gains, and 2003 included donations of appreciated public equity securities to our Foundation.

      We expect to incur approximately $65 million of integration expense related to the Strong Financial transaction, of which $19 million (or approximately $.01 per share) was incurred in fourth quarter 2004. In 2005, we expect to incur total integration expense of approximately $.02 per share for the balance of the expenses for the Strong Financial transaction and for the pending acquisition of First Community Capital Corporation.

      We will expense stock options, as required, beginning July 1, 2005, and estimate the effect of expensing current outstanding options will reduce earnings per share by $.03 for the last half of 2005.

Our lines of business for management reporting consist of Community Banking, Wholesale Banking and Wells Fargo Financial.

COMMUNITY BANKING’S net income increased 14% to $5.0 billion in 2004 from $4.4 billion in 2003. Net interest income increased to $12.2 billion in 2004 from $11.5 billion in 2003, or 6%, primarily due to growth in consumer loans and deposits, partially offset by a decrease in average mortgages held for sale. Average loans were $187.0 billion in 2004, up 31% from $143.2 billion in 2003. Retail core deposits, which exclude Wholesale Banking core deposits and mortgage escrow deposits, averaged $183.7 billion in 2004, up 11% over the prior year. Revenue in businesses other than Home Mortgage rose 10% on higher fee revenue, including deposit service charges, trust and investments, debit and credit cards and insurance. Home Mortgage revenue decreased from 2003, a year of record originations from strong refinancing activity. While total Community Banking noninterest expense included additional investments made in technology, store growth and additional team members, total noninterest expense decreased $137 million, or 1%, due to overall expense management, including a reduction in Home Mortgage production costs.

WHOLESALE BANKING’S net income increased 11% to $1.6 billion in 2004 from $1.4 billion in 2003. Average loans increased 7% and average core deposits grew 14% from 2003. The quality of Wholesale Banking’s loan portfolio improved as reflected in a lower level of nonperforming loans and a decrease in net credit losses from the prior year. The provision for credit losses decreased to $62 million in 2004 from $177 million in 2003, due to lower net charge-offs. Noninterest income increased $304 million to $3.1 billion in 2004 compared with 2003, primarily due to higher income in insurance brokerage, trust and investment fees, commissions and capital markets activity. Noninterest expense increased to $2.7 billion in 2004 from $2.6 billion in 2003 primarily due to higher personnel expense, along with integration costs related to the Strong Financial transaction.

WELLS FARGO FINANCIAL’S net income increased 12% to $507 million in 2004 from $451 million in 2003. The 2004 results reflected a strong increase in real estate secured loans and auto lending, as average loans reached $29.5 billion, an increase of 45% over the prior year. Total revenue rose 18% in 2004, reaching $3.2 billion, compared with $2.7 billion in 2003, due to higher net interest income. Net interest income increased $482 million, or 21%, to $2.8 billion in 2004 from $2.3 billion in 2003 due to growth in average loans. The provision for credit losses increased by $174 million from 2003 to 2004 due to the growth in average loans and expected seasoning in the loan portfolio. Noninterest expense increased $247 million, or 18%, in 2004 from 2003, reflecting investments in new consumer finance stores and additional team members.

Balance Sheet Analysis

A comparison between the year-end 2004 and 2003 balance sheets is presented below.

Securities Available for Sale
Our securities available for sale portfolio includes both debt and marketable equity securities. We hold debt securities available for sale primarily for liquidity, interest rate risk management and yield enhancement purposes. Accordingly, this portfolio primarily includes very liquid, high-quality federal agency debt securities. At December 31, 2004, we held $33.0 billion of debt securities available for sale, compared with $32.4 billion at December 31, 2003, with a net unrealized gain of $1.2 billion and $1.3 billion for the same periods. In addition, we held $696 million of marketable equity securities available for sale at December 31, 2004, and $582 million at December 31, 2003, with a net unrealized gain of $189 million and $188 million for the same periods.

      The weighted-average expected maturity of debt securities available for sale was 4.3 years at December 31, 2004. Since 76% of this portfolio is mortgage-backed securities, the expected remaining maturity may differ from contractual maturity because borrowers may have the right to prepay obligations before the underlying mortgages mature.

      The estimated effect of a 200 basis point increase or decrease in interest rates on the fair value and the expected remaining maturity of the mortgage-backed securities available for sale portfolio is in Table 6.

Table 6: Mortgage-Backed Securities

(in billions)	Fair		Net unrealized			Remaining
	value		gain (loss)			maturity
At December 31, 2004	$	25.1	$	.9		3.7 yrs.
At December 31, 2004, assuming a 200 basis point:
Increase in interest rates		23.2		(1.0	)	6.3 yrs.
Decrease in interest rates		25.9		1.7		1.6 yrs.

      See Note 5 (Securities Available for Sale) to Financial Statements for securities available for sale by security type.

Loan Portfolio
A comparative schedule of average loan balances is included in Table 3; year-end balances are in Note 6 (Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses) to Financial Statements.

      Loans averaged $269.6 billion in 2004, compared with $213.1 billion in 2003, an increase of 26%. Total loans at December 31, 2004, were $287.6 billion, compared with $253.1 billion at year-end 2003, an increase of 14%. Average 1–4 family first mortgages and junior liens increased $31.4 billion, or 56%, and $12.7 billion, or 40%, respectively, in 2004 compared with a year ago. Average commercial and commercial real estate loans increased $6.3 billion in 2004 compared with a year ago. Average mortgages held for sale decreased $26.4 billion, or 45%, to $32.3 billion in 2004 from $58.7 billion in 2003 due to lower origination volume. With lower refinancing demand in 2004, residential mortgage originations of $298 billion were down 37% from the industry record of $470 billion we established in 2003.

Deposits
Year-end deposit balances are in Table 7. Comparative detail of average deposit balances is included in Table 3. Average core deposits funded 54.4% and 54.8% of average total assets in 2004 and 2003, respectively. Total average interest-bearing deposits rose from $161.7 billion in 2003 to $182.6 billion in 2004. Total average noninterest-bearing deposits rose from $76.8 billion in 2003 to $79.3 billion in 2004. Savings certificates declined on average from $20.9 billion in 2003 to $18.9 billion in 2004.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Aggregate Contractual Obligations

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements, Variable Interest Entities, Guarantees and Other Commitments
We consolidate our majority-owned subsidiaries and subsidiaries in which we are the primary beneficiary. Generally, we use the equity method of accounting if we own at least 20% of an affiliate and we carry the investment at cost if we own less than 20% of an affiliate. See Note 1 (Summary of Significant Accounting Policies) to Financial Statements for our consolidation policy.

      In the ordinary course of business, we engage in financial transactions that are not recorded on the balance sheet, or may be recorded on the balance sheet in amounts that are different than the full contract or notional amount of the transaction. These transactions are designed to (1) meet the financial needs of customers, (2) manage our credit, market or liquidity risks, (3) diversify our funding sources or (4) optimize capital, and are accounted for in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).

      Almost all of our off-balance sheet arrangements result from securitizations. We routinely securitize home mortgage loans and, from time to time, other financial assets, including student loans, commercial mortgages and automobile receivables. We normally structure loan securitizations as sales, in accordance with FAS 140. This involves the transfer of financial assets to certain qualifying special-purpose entities that we are not required to consolidate. In a securitization, we can convert the assets into cash earlier than if we held the assets to maturity. Special-purpose entities used in these types of securitizations obtain cash to acquire assets by issuing securities to investors. In a securitization, we usually provide representations and warranties for receivables transferred. Also, we generally retain the right to service the transferred receivables and to repurchase those receivables from the special-purpose entity if the outstanding balance of the receivable falls to a level where the cost exceeds the benefits of servicing such receivables.

      At December 31, 2004, securitization arrangements sponsored by the Company consisted of approximately $77 billion in securitized loan receivables, including $45 billion of home mortgage loans. We retained servicing rights and other beneficial interests related to these securitizations of $575 million, consisting of $138 million in securities, $353 million in servicing assets and $84 million in other retained interests. Related to securitizations, we provided $16 million in liquidity commitments in demand notes and reserve fund balances, and committed to provide up to $32 million in credit enhancements.

      Also, we hold variable interests greater than 20% but less than 50% in certain special-purpose entities formed to provide affordable housing and to securitize high-yield corporate debt that had approximately $3 billion in total assets at December 31, 2004. We are not required to consolidate these entities. Our maximum exposure to loss as a result of our involvement with these unconsolidated

variable interest entities was approximately $950 million at December 31, 2004, primarily representing investments in entities formed to invest in affordable housing. We, however, expect to recover our investment over time through realization of federal low-income housing tax credits.

      For more information on securitizations including sales proceeds and cash flows from securitizations, see Note 21 (Securitizations and Variable Interest Entities) to Financial Statements.

      Home Mortgage, in the ordinary course of business, originates a portion of its mortgage loans through unconsolidated joint ventures in which we own an interest of 50% or less. Loans made by these joint ventures are funded by Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., or an affiliated entity, through an established line of credit and are subject to specified underwriting criteria. At December 31, 2004, the total assets of these mortgage origination joint ventures were approximately $80 million. We provide liquidity to these joint ventures in the form of outstanding lines of credit and, at December 31, 2004, these liquidity commitments totaled $350 million.

      We also hold interests in other unconsolidated joint ventures formed with unrelated third parties to provide efficiencies from economies of scale. A third party manages our real estate lending services joint ventures and provides customers title, escrow, appraisal and other real estate related services. Our merchant services joint venture includes credit card processing and related activities. At December 31, 2004, total assets of our real estate lending and merchant services joint ventures were approximately $520 million.

      When we acquire brokerage, asset management and insurance agencies, the terms of the acquisitions may provide for deferred payments or additional consideration, based on certain performance targets. At December 31, 2004, the amount of contingent consideration we expected to pay was not significant to our financial statements.

      As a financial services provider, we routinely commit to extend credit, including loan commitments, standby letters of credit and financial guarantees. A significant portion of commitments to extend credit may expire without being drawn upon. These commitments are subject to the same credit policies and approval process used for our loans. For more information, see Note 6 (Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses) and Note 25 (Guarantees) to Financial Statements.

      In our venture capital and capital markets businesses, we commit to fund equity investments directly to investment funds and to specific private companies. The timing of future cash requirements to fund these commitments generally depends on the venture capital investment cycle, the period over which privately-held companies are funded by venture capital investors and ultimately taken public through an initial offering. This cycle can vary based on market conditions and the industry in which the companies operate. We expect that many of these investments will become public, or otherwise become liquid, before the balance of unfunded equity

47

commitments is used. At December 31, 2004, these commitments were approximately $685 million. Our other investment commitments, principally affordable housing, civic and other community development initiatives, were approximately $530 million at December 31, 2004. Also, in 2004, we made an irrevocable commitment of $275 million to the Wells Fargo Foundation to fund the Foundation over the next eight to ten years, which resulted in a $217 million charitable contribution expense.

      In the ordinary course of business, we enter into indemnification agreements, including underwriting agreements relating to offers and sales of our securities, acquisition agreements, and various other business transactions or arrangements, such as relationships arising from service as a director or officer of the Company. For more information, see Note 25 (Guarantees) to Financial Statements.

Contractual Obligations
In addition to the contractual commitments and arrangements described above, which, depending on the nature of the obligation, may or may not require use of our resources, we enter into other contractual obligations in the ordinary course of business, including debt issuances for the funding of operations and leases for premises and equipment.

      Table 8 summarizes these contractual obligations at December 31, 2004, except obligations for short-term borrowing arrangements and pension and postretirement benefits plans. More information on these obligations is in Notes 11 (Short-Term Borrowings) and 16 (Employee Benefits and Other Expenses) to Financial Statements. The table also excludes other commitments more fully described under “Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements, Variable Interest Entities, Guarantees and Other Commitments.”

      We enter into derivatives, which create contractual obligations, as part of our interest rate risk management process, for our customers or for other trading activities. See “Asset/Liability and Market Risk Management” in this report and Note 27 (Derivatives) to Financial Statements for more information.

Transactions with Related Parties
FAS 57, Related Party Disclosures, requires disclosure of material related party transactions, other than compensation arrangements, expense allowances and other similar items in the ordinary course of business. The Company had no related party transactions required to be reported under FAS 57 for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002.

Risk Management

Credit Risk Management Process
Our credit risk management process provides for decentralized management and accountability by our lines of business. Our overall credit process includes comprehensive credit policies, frequent and detailed risk measurement and modeling, extensive credit training programs and a continual loan audit review process. In addition, regulatory examiners review and perform detailed tests of our credit underwriting, loan administration and allowance processes.

      Managing credit risk is a company-wide process. We have credit policies for all banking and nonbanking operations incurring credit risk with customers or counterparties that provide a consistent, prudent approach to credit risk management. We use detailed tracking and analysis to measure credit performance and exception rates and we routinely

review and modify credit policies as appropriate. We have corporate data integrity standards to ensure accurate and complete credit performance reporting. We strive to identify problem loans early and have dedicated, specialized collection and work-out units.

      The Chief Credit Officer, who reports directly to the Chief Executive Officer, provides company-wide credit oversight. Each business unit with direct credit risks has a credit officer and has the primary responsibility for managing its own credit risk. The Chief Credit Officer delegates authority, limits and other requirements to the business units. These delegations are routinely reviewed and amended if there are significant changes in personnel or credit performance. The Chief Credit Officer is actively involved in the Corporate Enterprise Risk Management Committee.

48

      Our business units and the office of the Chief Credit Officer periodically review all credit risk portfolios to ensure that the risk identification processes are functioning properly and that credit standards are followed. Business units conduct quality assurance reviews to ensure that loans meet portfolio or investor credit standards. Our loan examiners and/or internal auditors also independently review portfolios with credit risk.

      Our primary business focus in middle market commercial and residential real estate, auto and small consumer lending, results in portfolio diversification. We ensure that we use appropriate methods to understand and underwrite risk.

      In our wholesale portfolios, loans are individually underwritten and judgmentally risk rated. They are periodically monitored and prompt corrective actions are taken on deteriorating loans.

      Retail loans are typically underwritten with statistical decision-making tools and are managed throughout their life cycle on a portfolio basis. The Chief Credit Officer establishes corporate standards for model development and validation to ensure sound credit decisions and regulatory compliance.

      Each business unit completes quarterly asset quality forecasts to quantify its intermediate-term outlook for loan losses and recoveries, nonperforming loans and market trends. To make sure our overall allowance for credit losses is adequate we conduct periodic stress tests. This includes a portfolio loss simulation model that simulates a range of possible losses for various sub-portfolios assuming various trends in loan quality. We assess loan portfolios for geographic, industry, or other concentrations and develop mitigation strategies, which may include loan sales, syndications or third party insurance, to minimize these concentrations as we deem necessary.

      We routinely review and evaluate risks that are not borrower specific but that may influence the behavior of a particular credit, group of credits or entire sub-portfolios. We also assess risk for particular industries and specific macroeconomic trends.

NONACCRUAL LOANS AND OTHER ASSETS
Table 9 shows the five-year trend for nonaccrual loans and other assets. We generally place loans on nonaccrual status (1) when the full and timely collection of interest or principal becomes uncertain, (2) when they are 90 days (120 days with respect to real estate 1–4 family first and junior lien mortgages) past due for interest or principal (unless both well-secured and in the process of collection) or (3) when part of the principal balance has been charged off. Note 1 (Summary of Significant Accounting Policies) to Financial Statements describes our accounting policy for nonaccrual loans.

      We expect that the amount of nonaccrual loans will change due to portfolio growth, portfolio seasoning, routine problem loan recognition and resolution through collections, sales or charge-offs. The performance of any loan can be affected by external factors, such as economic conditions, or factors particular to a borrower, such as actions of a borrower’s management.

      If interest due on the book balances of all nonaccrual loans (including loans that were but are no longer on nonaccrual at year end) had been accrued under the original terms, approximately $80 million of interest would have been recorded in 2004, compared with payments of $38 million recorded as interest income.

      Substantially all foreclosed assets at December 31, 2004, have been in the portfolio one year or less.

LOANS 90 DAYS OR MORE PAST DUE AND STILL ACCRUING
Loans included in this category are 90 days or more past due as to interest or principal and still accruing, because they are (1) well-secured and in the process of collection or (2) real estate 1-4 family first mortgage loans or consumer loans exempt under regulatory rules from being classified as nonaccrual.

      The total of loans 90 days past due and still accruing was $2,578 million, $2,337 million, $672 million, $698 million and $578 million at December 31, 2004, 2003, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. In 2004 and 2003, the total included $1,820 million and $1,641 million, respectively, in advances pursuant to our servicing agreements to Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA) mortgage pools whose repayments are insured by the Federal Housing Administration or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs. Prior to clarifying guidance issued in 2003 as to classification as loans, GNMA advances were included in other assets. Table 10 provides detail by loan category excluding GNMA advances.

ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES
The allowance for credit losses, which comprises the allowance for loan losses and the reserve for unfunded credit commitments, is management’s estimate of credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. We assume that our allowance for credit losses as a percentage of charge-offs and nonperforming loans will change at different points in time based on credit performance, loan mix and collateral values. The analysis of the changes in the allowance for credit losses, including charge-offs and recoveries by loan category, is presented in Note 6 (Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses) to Financial Statements.

      At December 31, 2004, the allowance for loan losses was $3.76 billion, or 1.31% of total loans, compared with $3.89 billion, or 1.54%, at December 31, 2003, and $3.82 billion, or 1.98%, at December 31, 2002. The decrease in the ratio of the allowance for loan losses to total loans was primarily due to significant growth in our consumer real estate portfolio, which inherently has lower losses that emerge over a longer time frame compared with other consumer products. We have historically experienced lower losses on our residential real estate secured consumer loan portfolio. The provision for credit losses totaled $1.72 billion in 2004 and 2003 and $1.68 billion in 2002. Net charge-offs in 2004 were .62% of average total loans, compared with .81% in 2003 and .96% in 2002. Any loan with past due principal or interest that is not both well-secured and in the process of collection generally is charged off (to the extent that it exceeds the fair value of any related collateral) based on loan category after a defined period of time. Also, loans are charged off when classified as a loss by either internal loan examiners or regulatory examiners.

      At December 31, 2004, the reserve for unfunded credit commitments was $188 million, less than 5% of the allowance for credit losses, compared with 3% a year ago.

      We consider the allowance for credit losses of $3.95 billion adequate to cover credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio, including unfunded credit commitments, at December 31, 2004. The process for determining the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses is critical to our financial results. It requires difficult, subjective and complex judgments, as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are uncertain. (See “Financial Review – Critical Accounting Policies – Allowance for Credit Losses.”) Therefore, we cannot provide assurance that, in any particular period, we will not have sizeable credit losses in relation to the amount reserved. We may need to significantly adjust the allowance for credit losses, considering current factors at the time, including economic conditions and ongoing internal and external examination processes. Our process for determining the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses is discussed in Note 6 (Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses) to Financial Statements.

Asset/Liability and Market Risk Management
Asset/liability management involves the evaluation, monitoring and management of interest rate risk, market risk, liquidity and funding. The Corporate Asset/Liability Management Committee (Corporate ALCO)—which oversees these risks and reports periodically to the Finance Committee of the Board of Directors—consists of senior financial and business executives. Each of our principal business groups—Community Banking (including Mortgage Banking), Wholesale Banking and Wells Fargo Financial—have individual asset/liability management committees and processes linked to the Corporate ALCO process.

INTEREST RATE RISK
Interest rate risk, which potentially can have a significant earnings impact, is an integral part of being a financial intermediary. We are subject to interest rate risk because:

• assets and liabilities may mature or reprice at different times (for example, if assets reprice faster than liabilities and interest rates are generally falling, earnings will initially decline);

• assets and liabilities may reprice at the same time but by different amounts (for example, when the general level of interest rates is falling, we may reduce rates paid on checking and savings deposit accounts by an amount that is less than the general decline in market interest rates);

• short-term and long-term market interest rates may change by different amounts (i.e., the shape of the yield curve may affect new loan yields and funding costs differently); or

• the remaining maturity of various assets or liabilities may shorten or lengthen as interest rates change (for example, if long-term mortgage interest rates decline sharply, mortgage-backed securities held in the securities available for sale portfolio may prepay significantly earlier than anticipated – which could reduce portfolio income). In addition, interest rates may have an indirect impact on loan demand, credit losses, mortgage origination volume, the value of mortgage servicing rights, the value of the pension liability and other sources of earnings.

      We assess interest rate risk by comparing our most likely earnings plan with various earnings models using many interest rate scenarios that differ in the direction of interest rate changes, the degree of change over time, the speed of change and the projected shape of the yield curve. For example, if we assume an increase of 325 basis points in the federal funds rate and an increase of 250 basis points in the 10 year Constant Maturity Treasury Bond yield during the same period, estimated earnings at risk would be approximately 3.0% of our most likely earnings plan for 2005. Simulation estimates depend on, and will change with, the size and mix of our actual and projected balance sheet at the time of each simulation.

      We use exchange-traded and over-the-counter interest rate derivatives to hedge our interest rate exposures. The credit risk amount and estimated net fair values of these derivatives as of December 31, 2004 and 2003 are presented in Note 27 (Derivatives) to Financial Statements. We use derivatives for asset/liability management in three ways:

• to convert most of the long-term fixed-rate debt to floating-rate payments by entering into receive-fixed swaps at issuance;

• to convert the cash flows from selected asset and/or liability instruments/portfolios from fixed to floating payments or vice versa; and

• to hedge the mortgage origination pipeline, funded mortgage loans and mortgage servicing rights using swaptions, futures, forwards and options.

MORTGAGE BANKING INTEREST RATE RISK
We originate, fund and service mortgage loans, which subjects us to a number of risks, including credit, liquidity and interest rate risks. We manage credit and liquidity risk by selling or securitizing most of the mortgage loans we originate. Changes in interest rates, however, may have a significant effect on mortgage banking income in any quarter and over time. Interest rates impact both the value of the mortgage servicing rights (MSRs), which is adjusted to the lower of cost or fair value, and the future earnings of the mortgage business, which are driven by origination volume and the duration of our servicing. We manage both risks by hedging the impact of interest rates on the value of the MSRs using derivatives, combined with the “natural hedge” provided by the origination and servicing components of the mortgage business; however, we do not hedge 100% of these two risks.

      We hedge a significant portion of the value of our MSRs against a change in interest rates with derivatives. The principal source of risk in this hedging process is the risk that changes in the value of the hedging contracts may not match changes in the value of the hedged portion of our MSRs for any given change in long-term interest rates.

      The value of our MSRs is influenced primarily by prepayment speed assumptions affecting the duration of the mortgage loans to which our MSRs relate. Changes in long-term interest rates affect these prepayment speed assumptions. For example, a decrease in long-term rates would accelerate prepayment speed assumptions as borrowers refinance their existing mortgage loans and decrease the value of the MSRs. In contrast, prepayment speed assumptions would tend to slow in a rising interest rate environment and increase the value of the MSRs.

      For a given decline in interest rates, a portion of the potential reduction in the value of our MSRs is offset by estimated increases in origination and servicing fees over time from new mortgage activity or refinancing associated with that decline in interest rates. With much lower long-term interest rates, the decline in the value of our MSRs and the effect on net income would be immediate whereas the additional origination and servicing fee income accrues over time. Under GAAP, impairment of our MSRs, due to a decrease in long-term rates or other reasons, is charged to earnings through an increase to the valuation allowance.

      In scenarios of sustained increases in long-term interest rates, origination fees may decline as refinancing activity slows. In such higher interest rate scenarios, the duration of the servicing portfolio may lengthen. In such circumstances, we may reduce periodic amortization of MSRs, and may recover some or all of the previously established valuation allowance.

      Our MSRs totaled $7.9 billion, net of a valuation allowance of $1.6 billion at December 31, 2004, and $6.9 billion, net of a valuation allowance of $1.9 billion, at December 31, 2003. The weighted-average note rate on the owned servicing portfolio was 5.75% at December 31, 2004, and 5.90% at December 31, 2003. Our MSRs were 1.15% of mortgage loans serviced for others at December 31, 2004 and 2003.

51

      As part of our mortgage banking activities, we enter into commitments to fund residential mortgage loans at specified times in the future. A mortgage loan commitment is an interest rate lock that binds us to lend funds to a potential borrower at a specified interest rate and within a specified period of time, generally up to 60 days after inception of the rate lock. These loan commitments are derivative loan commitments if the loans that will result from the exercise of the commitments will be held for sale. Under FAS 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (as amended), these derivative loan commitments are recognized at fair value on the consolidated balance sheet with changes in their fair values recorded as part of income from mortgage banking operations. Consistent with EITF 02-3, Issues Involved in Accounting for Derivative Contracts Held for Trading Purposes and Contracts Involved in Energy Trading and Risk Management Activities, and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 105, Application of Accounting Principles to Loan Commitments, we record no value for the loan commitment at inception. Subsequent to inception, we recognize fair value of the derivative loan commitment based on estimated changes in the fair value of the underlying loan that would result from the exercise of that commitment and on changes in the probability that the loan will fund within the terms of the commitment. The value of that loan is affected primarily by changes in interest rates and the passage of time. We also apply a fall-out factor to the valuation of the derivative loan commitment for the probability that the loan will not fund within the terms of the commitments. The value of the MSRs is recognized only after the servicing asset has been contractually separated from the underlying loan by sale or securitization.

      Outstanding derivative loan commitments expose us to the risk that the price of the loans underlying the commitments might decline due to increases in mortgage interest rates from inception of the rate lock to the funding of the loan. To minimize this risk, we utilize options, futures and forwards to economically hedge the potential decreases in the values of the loans that could result from the exercise of the loan commitments. We expect that these derivative financial instruments will experience changes in fair value that will offset the changes in fair value of the derivative loan commitments.

MARKET RISK – TRADING ACTIVITIES
From a market risk perspective, our net income is exposed to changes in interest rates, credit spreads, foreign exchange rates, equity and commodity prices and their implied volatilities. The primary purpose of our trading businesses is to accommodate customers in the management of their market price risks. Also, we take positions based on market expectations or to benefit from price differences between financial instruments and markets, subject to risk limits established and monitored by Corporate ALCO. All securities, loans, foreign exchange transactions, commodity transactions and derivatives—transacted with customers or used to hedge capital market transactions with customers—are carried at fair value.

The Institutional Risk Committee establishes and monitors counterparty risk limits. The notional or contractual amount, credit risk amount and estimated net fair value of all customer accommodation derivatives at December 31, 2004 and 2003 are included in Note 27 (Derivatives) to Financial Statements. Open, “at risk” positions for all trading business are monitored by Corporate ALCO.

      The standardized approach for monitoring and reporting market risk for the trading activities is the value-at-risk (VAR) metrics complemented with factor analysis and stress testing. Value-at-risk measures the worst expected loss over a given time interval and within a given confidence interval. We measure and report daily VAR at 99% confidence interval based on actual changes in rates and prices over the past 250 days. The analysis captures all financial instruments that are considered trading positions. The average one-day VAR throughout 2004 was $19 million, with a lower bound of $12 million and an upper bound of $57 million.

MARKET RISK – EQUITY MARKETS
We are directly and indirectly affected by changes in the equity markets. We make and manage direct equity investments in start-up businesses, emerging growth companies, management buy-outs, acquisitions and corporate recapitalizations. We also invest in non-affiliated funds that make similar private equity investments. These private equity investments are made within capital allocations approved by management and the Board of Directors. The Board reviews business developments, key risks and historical returns for the private equity investments at least annually. Management reviews these investments at least quarterly and assesses them for possible other-than-temporary impairment. For nonmarketable investments, the analysis is based on facts and circumstances of each individual investment and the expectations for that investment’s cash flows and capital needs, the viability of its business model and our exit strategy. At December 31, 2004, private equity investments totaled $1,449 million, compared with $1,714 million at December 31, 2003.

      We also have marketable equity securities in the available for sale investment portfolio, including securities distributed from our venture capital activities. We manage these investments within capital risk limits approved by management and the Board and monitored by Corporate ALCO. Gains and losses on these securities are recognized in net income when realized and, in addition, other-than-temporary impairment may be periodically recorded. The initial indicator of impairment for marketable equity securities is a sustained decline in market price below the amount recorded for that investment. We consider a variety of factors, such as the length of time and the extent to which the market value has been less than cost; the issuer’s financial condition, capital strength, and near-term prospects; any recent events specific to that issuer and economic conditions of its industry; and, to a lesser degree, our investment horizon in relationship to an anticipated near-term recovery in the stock price, if any. At December 31, 2004, the fair value of marketable equity securities was $696 million and cost was $507 million, compared with $582 million and $394 million, respectively, at December 31, 2003.

52

      Changes in equity market prices may also indirectly affect our net income (1) by affecting the value of third party assets under management and, hence, fee income, (2) by affecting particular borrowers, whose ability to repay principal and/or interest may be affected by the stock market, or (3) by affecting brokerage activity, related commission income and other business activities. Each business line monitors and manages these indirect risks.

LIQUIDITY AND FUNDING
The objective of effective liquidity management is to ensure that we can meet customer loan requests, customer deposit maturities/withdrawals and other cash commitments efficiently under both normal operating conditions and under unpredictable circumstances of industry or market stress. To achieve this objective, Corporate ALCO establishes and monitors liquidity guidelines that require sufficient asset-based liquidity to cover potential funding requirements and to avoid over-dependence on volatile, less reliable funding markets. We set liquidity management guidelines for both the consolidated balance sheet as well as for the Parent specifically to ensure that the Parent is a source of strength for its regulated, deposit-taking banking subsidiaries.

      Debt securities in the securities available for sale portfolio provide asset liquidity, in addition to the immediately liquid resources of cash and due from banks and federal funds sold and securities purchased under resale agreements. The weighted-average expected remaining maturity of the debt securities within this portfolio was 4.3 years at December 31, 2004. Of the $31.8 billion (cost basis) of debt securities in this portfolio at December 31, 2004, $5.1 billion, or 16%, is expected to mature or be prepaid in 2005 and an additional $4.5 billion, or 14%, in 2006. Asset liquidity is further enhanced by our ability to sell or securitize loans in secondary markets through whole-loan sales and securitizations. In 2004, we sold mortgage loans of approximately $230 billion, including securitized home mortgage loans and commercial mortgage loans of approximately $195 billion. The amount of mortgage loans, as well as home equity loans and other consumer loans, available to be sold or securitized totaled approximately $125 billion at December 31, 2004.

      Core customer deposits have historically provided a sizeable source of relatively stable and low-cost funds. Average core deposits and stockholders’ equity funded 63.1% and 63.3% of average total assets in 2004 and 2003, respectively.

      The remaining assets were funded by long-term debt, deposits in foreign offices, short-term borrowings (federal funds purchased, securities sold under repurchase agreements, commercial paper and other short-term borrowings) and trust preferred securities. Short-term borrowings averaged $26.1 billion and $29.9 billion in 2004 and 2003, respectively. Long-term debt, including issuances of trust preferred securities, averaged $67.9 billion and $57.1 billion in 2004 and 2003, respectively.

      We anticipate making capital expenditures of approximately $1.2 billion in 2005 for stores, relocation and remodeling of

Company facilities, and routine replacement of furniture, equipment and servers. We will fund these expenditures from various sources, including retained earnings and borrowings.

      Liquidity is also available through our ability to raise funds in a variety of domestic and international money and capital markets. We access capital markets for long-term funding by issuing registered debt, private placements and asset-backed secured funding. Approximately $80 billion of our debt is rated by Moody’s Investors Service as “Aa1” and Fitch, Inc. as “AA,” among the highest ratings given to a financial services company. In September 2003, Moody’s Investors Service raised Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.’s rating to “Aaa,” its highest investment grade, from “Aa1” and raised the Company’s senior debt rating to “Aa1” from “Aa2.” In October 2003, Standard & Poor’s Ratings Service raised the counterparty ratings on the Company to “AA-minus/A-1-plus” from “A-plus/A-1” and the revised outlook for the Company to stable from positive. Rating agencies base their ratings on many quantitative and qualitative factors, including capital adequacy, liquidity, asset quality, business mix and level and quality of earnings. Material changes in these factors could result in a different debt rating; however, a change in debt rating would not cause us to violate any of our debt covenants.

PARENT. In March 2003, the Parent registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for issuance of $15.3 billion in senior and subordinated notes and preferred and common securities. In April 2004, the Parent filed a registration statement with the SEC for issuance of an additional $20 billion in senior and subordinated notes, preferred stock and other securities. During 2004, the Parent issued a total of $17.1 billion of senior and subordinated notes and trust preferred securities. At December 31, 2004, the Parent’s remaining issuance capacity under effective registration statements was $11.9 billion. We used the proceeds from securities issued in 2004 for general corporate purposes and expect that the proceeds in the future will also be used for general corporate purposes. The Parent also issues commercial paper and has a $1 billion back-up credit facility. In February 2005, the Parent issued $750 million in senior notes.

WELLS FARGO BANK, N.A. In March 2003, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. established a $50 billion bank note program under which it may issue up to $20 billion in short-term senior notes outstanding at any time and up to a total of $30 billion in long-term senior and subordinated notes. Securities are issued under this program as private placements in accordance with Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) regulations. During 2004, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. issued $5.9 billion in senior long-term notes. At December 31, 2004, the remaining issuance authority under the long-term portion was $9.0 billion. In January 2005, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. issued $225 million in senior long-term notes. In addition, not under the bank note program, in February 2005, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. issued $1.5 billion in subordinated debt.

53

WELLS FARGO FINANCIAL. In November 2003, Wells Fargo Financial Canada Corporation (WFFCC), a wholly owned Canadian subsidiary of Wells Fargo Financial, Inc. (WFFI), qualified for distribution with the provincial securities exchanges in Canada $1.5 billion (Canadian) of issuance authority. In December 2004, WFFCC amended its existing shelf registration by adding $2.5 billion (Canadian) of issuance authority. During 2004, WFFCC issued $1.1 billion

(Canadian) in senior notes. At December 31, 2004, the remaining issuance capacity for WFFCC was $2.9 billion (Canadian). During 2004, WFFI issued $400 million (Canadian) and $207 million (U.S.) in senior notes as private placements. In 2004, WFFI also entered into a secured borrowing arrangement for $500 million (U.S.). Under the terms of the arrangement, WFFI pledged auto loans as security for the borrowing.

Capital Management

We have an active program for managing stockholder capital. We use capital to fund organic growth, acquire banks and other financial services companies, pay dividends and repurchase our shares. Our objective is to produce above market long-term returns by opportunistically using capital when returns are perceived to be high and issuing/accumulating capital when such costs are perceived to be low.

      From time to time our Board of Directors authorizes the Company to repurchase shares of its common stock. Although we announce when our Board authorizes share repurchases, we typically do not give any public notice before we repurchase our shares. Various factors determine the amount and timing of our share repurchases, including our capital requirements, the number of shares we expect to issue for acquisitions and employee benefit plans, market conditions (including the trading price of our stock), and legal considerations. These factors can change at any time, and there can be no assurance as to the number of shares we will repurchase or when we will repurchase them.

      Historically, our policy has been to repurchase shares under the “safe harbor” conditions of Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act including a limitation on the daily volume of repurchases. In November 2003, the SEC amended Rule 10b-18 to impose an additional daily volume limitation on share repurchases during a pending merger or acquisition in which shares of our stock will constitute some or all of the consideration. Our management may determine that during a pending stock merger or acquisition when the safe harbor would otherwise be available, it is in the Company’s best interest to repurchase shares in excess of this additional daily volume limitation. In such cases, we intend to repurchase shares in compliance with the other conditions of the safe harbor, including the standing daily volume limitation that applies whether or not there is a pending stock merger or acquisition.

      During 2002, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 50 million additional shares of our outstanding common stock. In April 2004, the Board authorized the repurchase of up to 25 million shares of common stock. During 2004, we repurchased approximately 38 million shares of our common stock. At December 31, 2004, the total remaining common stock repurchase authority under the 2004 authorization was approximately 13 million shares. In January 2005, the Board authorized the repurchase of up to an additional 25 million shares of common stock. Effective February 22, 2005, the Board amended the PartnerShares^® Stock Option Plan to reduce the number of shares available for awards under the plan by 20,000,000 shares. At December 31, 2004, there were 21,194,286 shares available for awards under the plan. (See Note 15 (Common Stock and Stock Plans) for additional information on our broad-based employee stock option plans.)

      Our potential sources of capital include retained earnings, and issuances of common and preferred stock and subordinated debt. In 2004, retained earnings increased $3.6 billion, predominantly as a result of net income of $7.0 billion less dividends of $3.2 billion. In 2004, we issued $1.7 billion of common stock under various employee benefit and director plans and under our dividend reinvestment program. The Parent issued $1.9 billion in subordinated debt and trust preferred securities in 2004.

      The Company and each of our subsidiary banks are subject to various regulatory capital adequacy requirements administered by the Federal Reserve Board and the OCC. Risk-based capital guidelines establish a risk-adjusted ratio relating capital to different categories of assets and off-balance sheet exposures. At December 31, 2004, the Company and each of our covered subsidiary banks were “well capitalized” under regulatory standards. See Note 26 (Regulatory and Agency Capital Requirements) to Financial Statements for additional information.

Comparison of 2003 with 2002

Net income in 2003 was $6.2 billion, or $3.65 per share, compared with $5.7 billion, or $3.32 per share, before the effect of the accounting change related to FAS 142, for 2002. On the same basis, return on average assets (ROA) was 1.64% and return on average common equity (ROE) was

19.36% in 2003, compared with 1.77% and 19.63%, respectively, for 2002.

      Net income in 2003 was $6.2 billion, compared with $5.4 billion in 2002. Diluted earnings per common share were $3.65 in 2003, compared with $3.16 in 2002. ROA

54

was 1.64% and ROE was 19.36% in 2003, compared with 1.69% and 18.68%, respectively, in 2002.

      Net interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis was $16.1 billion in 2003, compared with $14.6 billion in 2002. The 10% increase in net interest income was primarily due to robust loan growth and significantly lower funding costs resulting from strong core deposit growth and lower wholesale funding rates. These factors were partially offset by reduced income from a smaller investment portfolio following the sale, prepayment and maturity of higher yielding mortgage-backed securities. The net interest margin was 5.08% for 2003, compared with 5.53% in 2002. The decrease was primarily due to declining loan yields as new volumes were added to the portfolio at yields below existing loans due to a lower interest rate environment. This was partially offset by significantly reduced funding costs and growth in noninterest-bearing funds.

      Noninterest income was $12.4 billion in 2003, compared with $10.8 billion in 2002. The 15% increase was largely due to higher mortgage banking noninterest income and fee income, including service charges on deposit accounts, credit card fees and charges and fees on loans. Also, the increase reflects net gains from equity investments in 2003, compared with losses in 2002. The increase in noninterest income was partially offset by lower net gains on debt securities in 2003 compared with 2002.

      Mortgage banking noninterest income was $2.5 billion in 2003, compared with $1.7 billion in 2002. Net servicing fees reflected losses of $1.0 billion in 2003, compared with $.7 billion in 2002. The increase in net losses from servicing fees was primarily due to lower average interest rates, which resulted in higher MSRs amortization and an increase to the

valuation allowance. The increase in net losses was partially offset by an increase in gross servicing fees due to an 18% growth in the servicing portfolio. Net gains on mortgage loan origination/sales activities increased to $3.0 billion in 2003 from $2.1 billion in 2002, primarily due to higher mortgage origination volume and gains on loan sales. Originations during 2003 grew to $470 billion from $333 billion in 2002.

      Revenue, the sum of net interest income and noninterest income, increased from $25.2 billion in 2002 to $28.4 billion in 2003, or 12%.

      Noninterest expense totaled $17.2 billion in 2003, compared with $14.7 billion in 2002, an increase of 17%. The increase in noninterest expense, including increases in salaries, employee benefits, incentive compensation, contract services, advertising and promotion and postage, was largely due to the growth in the mortgage banking business, which accounted for approximately 48% of the increase from 2002. The increase was also due to charitable donations, predominantly donations of appreciated public equity securities to the Wells Fargo Foundation.

      The provision for credit losses was $1.72 billion in 2003, compared with $1.68 billion in 2002. During 2003, net charge-offs were .81% of average total loans, compared with .96% during 2002. The allowance for credit losses was $3.89 billion, or 1.54% of total loans, at December 31, 2003, compared with $3.82 billion, or 1.98%, at December 31, 2002.

      At December 31, 2003, total nonaccrual loans were $1.46 billion, or .58% of total loans, compared with $1.49 billion, or .78%, at December 31, 2002. Foreclosed assets were $198 million at December 31, 2003, and $195 million at December 31, 2002.

Factors That May Affect Future Results

We make forward-looking statements in this report and in other reports and proxy statements we file with the SEC. In addition, our senior management might make forward-looking statements orally to analysts, investors, the media and others.

      Forward-looking statements include:

• projections of our revenues, income, earnings per share, capital expenditures, dividends, capital structure or other financial items;

• descriptions of plans or objectives of our management for future operations, products or services, including pending acquisitions;

• forecasts of our future economic performance; and

• descriptions of assumptions underlying or relating to any of the foregoing.

      In this report, for example, we make forward-looking statements about:

• the projected funding requirements of the Wells Fargo Foundation over the next eight to ten years and the

	expected funding sources for the 2004 commitment to the Foundation;
•	the amount of integration expense expected to be incurred in 2005 for the Strong Financial transaction and the pending acquisition of First Community Capital Corporation;
•	the estimated impact of expensing stock options on 2005 earnings per share;
•	the anticipated amount of capital expenditures in 2005 for stores, relocation and remodeling of facilities, and other items;
•	the expected impact of recent accounting standards;
•	future credit losses and nonperforming assets; and
•	future short-term and long-term interest rate levels and their impact on our net interest margin, net income, liquidity and capital.

      Forward-looking statements discuss matters that are not historical facts. Because they discuss future events or conditions, forward-looking statements often include words such

55

as “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “project,” “target,” “can,” “could,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “would” or similar expressions. Do not unduly rely on forward-looking statements. They give our expectations about the future and are not guarantees. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we might not update them to reflect changes that occur after the date they are made.

      There are a number of factors—many beyond our control—that could cause results to differ significantly from our expectations. Some of these factors are described below. Other factors, such as credit, market, operational, liquidity, interest rate and other risks, are described elsewhere in this report (see, for example, “Balance Sheet Analysis”). Factors relating to the regulation and supervision are described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004. Any factor described in this report or in our 2004 Form 10-K could by itself, or together with one or more other factors, adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition. There are also other factors that we have not described in this report or in our 2004 Form 10-K that could cause results to differ from our expectations.

Industry Factors
AS A FINANCIAL SERVICES COMPANY, OUR EARNINGS ARE SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECTED BY GENERAL BUSINESS AND ECONOMIC CONDITIONS.
Our business and earnings are affected by general business and economic conditions in the United States and abroad. These conditions include short-term and long-term interest rates, inflation, monetary supply, fluctuations in both debt and equity capital markets, and the strength of the U.S. economy and the local economies in which we operate. For example, an economic downturn, an increase in unemployment, or other events that affect household and/or corporate incomes could decrease the demand for loan and non-loan products and services and increase the number of customers who fail to pay interest or principal on their loans.

      Geopolitical conditions can also affect our earnings. Acts or threats of terrorism, actions taken by the U.S. or other governments in response to acts or threats of terrorism and/or military conflicts, could affect business and economic conditions in the U.S. and abroad. The terrorist attacks in 2001, for example, caused an immediate decrease in air travel, which affected the airline industry, lodging, gaming and tourism.

      We discuss other business and economic conditions in more detail elsewhere in this report.

THE FISCAL AND MONETARY POLICIES OF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AND ITS AGENCIES SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT OUR EARNINGS.
The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System regulates the supply of money and credit in the United States. Its policies determine in large part our cost of funds for lending and investing and the return we earn on those loans and investments, both of which affect our net interest margin. They also can materially affect the value of financial instruments we hold, such as debt securities and mortgage servicing rights. Its policies also can affect our borrowers,

potentially increasing the risk that they may fail to repay their loans. Changes in Federal Reserve Board policies are beyond our control and hard to predict.

THE FINANCIAL SERVICES INDUSTRY IS HIGHLY COMPETITIVE.
We operate in a highly competitive industry that could become even more competitive as a result of legislative, regulatory and technological changes and continued consolidation. Banks, securities firms and insurance companies now can merge by creating a “financial holding company,” which can offer virtually any type of financial service, including banking, securities underwriting, insurance (both agency and underwriting) and merchant banking. Recently, a number of foreign banks have acquired financial services companies in the United States, further increasing competition in the U.S. market. Also, technology has lowered barriers to entry and made it possible for nonbanks to offer products and services traditionally provided by banks, such as automatic transfer and automatic payment systems. Many of our competitors have fewer regulatory constraints and some have lower cost structures.

WE ARE HEAVILY REGULATED BY FEDERAL AND STATE AGENCIES.
The Parent, our subsidiary banks and many of our nonbank subsidiaries are heavily regulated at the federal and state levels. This regulation is to protect depositors, federal deposit insurance funds and the banking system as a whole, not security holders. Congress and state legislatures and federal and state regulatory agencies continually review banking laws, regulations and policies for possible changes. Changes to statutes, regulations or regulatory policies, including interpretation or implementation of statutes, regulations or policies, could affect us in substantial and unpredictable ways including limiting the types of financial services and products we may offer and/or increasing the ability of nonbanks to offer competing financial services and products. Also, if we do not comply with laws, regulations or policies, we could receive regulatory sanctions and damage to our reputation. For more information, refer to the “Regulation and Supervision” section of our 2004 Form 10-K and to Notes 3 (Cash, Loan and Dividend Restrictions) and 26 (Regulatory and Agency Capital Requirements) to Financial Statements.

FUTURE LEGISLATION COULD CHANGE OUR COMPETITIVE POSITION.
Legislation is from time to time introduced in the Congress, including proposals to substantially change the financial institution regulatory system and to expand or contract the powers of banking institutions and bank holding companies. This legislation may change banking statutes and our operating environment in substantial and unpredictable ways. If enacted, such legislation could increase or decrease the cost of doing business, limit or expand permissible activities or affect the competitive balance among banks, savings associations, credit unions and other financial institutions. We cannot predict whether any of this potential legislation will be enacted, and if enacted, the effect that it, or any regulations, would have on our financial condition or results of operations.

WE DEPEND ON THE ACCURACY AND COMPLETENESS OF INFORMATION ABOUT CUSTOMERS AND COUNTERPARTIES.
In deciding whether to extend credit or enter into other transactions with customers and counterparties, we may rely on information furnished to us by or on behalf of customers and counterparties, including financial statements and other financial information. We also may rely on representations of customers and counterparties as to the accuracy and completeness of that information and, with respect to financial statements, on reports of independent auditors. For example, in deciding whether to extend credit, we may assume that a customer’s audited financial statements conform with GAAP and present fairly, in all material respects, the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the customer. We also may rely on the audit report covering those financial statements. Our financial condition and results of operations could be negatively affected by relying on financial statements that do not comply with GAAP or that are materially misleading.

CONSUMERS MAY DECIDE NOT TO USE BANKS TO COMPLETE THEIR FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS.
Technology and other changes now allow parties to complete financial transactions without banks. For example, consumers can pay bills and transfer funds directly without banks. The process of eliminating banks as intermediaries, known as “disintermediation,” could result in the loss of fee income, as well as the loss of customer deposits and income generated from those deposits.

Company Factors
MAINTAINING OR INCREASING OUR MARKET SHARE DEPENDS ON MARKET ACCEPTANCE AND REGULATORY APPROVAL OF NEW PRODUCTS AND SERVICES.
Our success depends, in part, on our ability to adapt our products and services to evolving industry standards. There is increasing pressure to provide products and services at lower prices. This can reduce our net interest margin and revenues from our fee-based products and services. In addition, the widespread adoption of new technologies, including internet services, could require us to make substantial expenditures to modify or adapt our existing products and services. We might not be successful in introducing new products and services, achieving market acceptance of our products and services, or developing and maintaining loyal customers.

NEGATIVE PUBLIC OPINION COULD DAMAGE OUR REPUTATION AND ADVERSELY IMPACT OUR EARNINGS.
Reputation risk, or the risk to our earnings and capital from negative public opinion, is inherent in our business. Negative public opinion can result from our actual or alleged conduct in any number of activities, including lending practices, corporate governance and acquisitions, and from actions taken by government regulators and community organizations in response to those activities. Negative public opinion can adversely affect our ability to keep and attract customers and can expose us to litigation and regulatory action. Because virtually all our businesses operate under the “Wells Fargo”

brand, actual or alleged conduct by one business can result in negative public opinion about other Wells Fargo businesses. Although we take steps to minimize reputation risk in dealing with our customers and communities, as a large diversified financial services company with a relatively high industry profile, the risk will always be present in our organization.

THE PARENT RELIES ON DIVIDENDS FROM ITS SUBSIDIARIES FOR MOST OF ITS REVENUE.
The Parent is a separate and distinct legal entity from its subsidiaries. It receives substantially all of its revenue from dividends from its subsidiaries. These dividends are the principal source of funds to pay dividends on the Parent’s common and preferred stock and interest and principal on its debt. Various federal and/or state laws and regulations limit the amount of dividends that our bank and certain of our nonbank subsidiaries may pay to the Parent. Also, the Parent’s right to participate in a distribution of assets upon a subsidiary’s liquidation or reorganization is subject to the prior claims of the subsidiary’s creditors. For more information, refer to “Regulation and Supervision – Dividend Restrictions” and “ – Holding Company Structure” in our 2004 Form 10-K.

OUR ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND METHODS ARE KEY TO HOW WE REPORT OUR FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. THEY MAY REQUIRE MANAGEMENT TO MAKE ESTIMATES ABOUT MATTERS THAT ARE UNCERTAIN.
Our accounting policies and methods are fundamental to how we record and report our financial condition and results of operations. Our management must exercise judgment in selecting and applying many of these accounting policies and methods so they comply with GAAP and reflect management’s judgment of the most appropriate manner to report our financial condition and results. In some cases, management must select the accounting policy or method to apply from two or more alternatives, any of which might be reasonable under the circumstances yet might result in our reporting materially different amounts than would have been reported under a different alternative. Note 1 (Summary of Significant Accounting Policies) to Financial Statements describes our significant accounting policies.

      Three accounting policies are critical to presenting our financial condition and results. They require management to make difficult, subjective or complex judgments about matters that are uncertain. Materially different amounts could be reported under different conditions or using different assumptions. These critical accounting policies relate to: (1) the allowance for credit losses, (2) the valuation of mortgage servicing rights, and (3) pension accounting. Because of the uncertainty of estimates about these matters, we cannot provide any assurance that we will not:

• significantly increase our allowance for credit losses and/or sustain credit losses that are significantly higher than the reserve provided;

• recognize significant provision for impairment of our mortgage servicing rights; or

• significantly increase our pension liability.

57

CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING STANDARDS COULD MATERIALLY IMPACT OUR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.
From time to time the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) changes the financial accounting and reporting standards that govern the preparation of our financial statements. These changes can be hard to predict and can materially impact how we record and report our financial condition and results of operations. In some cases, we could be required to apply a new or revised standard retroactively, resulting in our restating prior period financial statements.

WE HAVE BUSINESSES OTHER THAN BANKING.
We are a diversified financial services company. In addition to banking, we provide insurance, investments, mortgages and consumer finance. Although we believe our diversity helps lessen the effect when downturns affect any one segment of our industry, it also means our earnings could be subject to different risks and uncertainties. We discuss some examples below.

MERCHANT BANKING. Our merchant banking business, which includes venture capital investments, has a much greater risk of capital losses than our traditional banking business. Also, it is difficult to predict the timing of any gains from this business. Realization of gains from our venture capital investments depends on a number of factors—many beyond our control—including general economic conditions, the prospects of the companies in which we invest, when these companies go public, the size of our position relative to the public float, and whether we are subject to any resale restrictions. Factors, such as a slowdown in consumer demand or a decline in capital spending, could result in declines in the values of our publicly-traded and private equity securities. If we determine that the declines are other-than-temporary, additional impairment charges would be recognized. Also, we will realize losses to the extent we sell securities at less than book value. For more information, see in this report “Balance Sheet Analysis – Securities Available for Sale.”

MORTGAGE BANKING. The effect of interest rates on our mortgage business can be large and complex. Changes in interest rates can affect loan origination fees and loan servicing fees, which account for a significant portion of mortgage-related revenues. A decline in mortgage rates generally increases the demand for mortgage loans as borrowers refinance, but also generally leads to accelerated payoffs in our mortgage servicing portfolio. Conversely, in a constant or increasing rate environment, we would expect fewer loans to be refinanced and a decline in payoffs in our servicing portfolio. We use dynamic, sophisticated models to assess the effect of interest rates on mortgage fees, amortization of mortgage servicing rights, and the value of mortgage servicing rights.

The estimates of net income and fair value produced by these models, however, depend on assumptions of future loan demand, prepayment speeds and other factors that may overstate or understate actual experience. We use derivatives to hedge the value of our servicing portfolio but they do not cover the full value of the portfolio. We cannot assure that the hedges will offset significant decreases in the value of the portfolio. For more information, see in this report “Critical Accounting Policies – Valuation of Mortgage Servicing Rights” and “Asset /Liability and Market Risk Management.”

WE RELY ON OTHER COMPANIES TO PROVIDE KEY COMPONENTS OF OUR BUSINESS INFRASTRUCTURE.
Third parties provide key components of our business infrastructure such as internet connections and network access. Any disruption in internet, network access or other voice or data communication services provided by these third parties or any failure of these third parties to handle current or higher volumes of use could adversely affect our ability to deliver products and services to our customers and otherwise to conduct our business. Technological or financial difficulties of a third party service provider could adversely affect our business to the extent those difficulties result in the interruption or discontinuation of services provided by that party.

WE HAVE AN ACTIVE ACQUISITION PROGRAM.
We regularly explore opportunities to acquire financial institutions and other financial services providers. We cannot predict the number, size or timing of acquisitions. We typically do not comment publicly on a possible acquisition or business combination until we have signed a definitive agreement.

      We must generally receive federal regulatory approval before we can acquire a bank or bank holding company. In determining whether to approve a proposed bank acquisition, federal bank regulators will consider, among other factors, the effect of the acquisition on competition, financial condition, and future prospects including current and projected capital ratios and levels, the competence, experience, and integrity of management and record of compliance with laws and regulations, the convenience and needs of the communities to be served, including the acquiring institution’s record of compliance under the Community Reinvestment Act, and the effectiveness of the acquiring institution in combating money laundering activities. In addition, we cannot be certain when or if, or on what terms and conditions, any required regulatory approvals will be granted. We might be required to sell banks or branches as a condition to receiving regulatory approval.

      Difficulty in integrating an acquired company may cause us not to realize expected revenue increases, cost savings, increases in geographic or product presence, and/or other projected benefits from the acquisition. The integration could result in higher than expected deposit attrition (run-off), loss of key employees, disruption of our business or the business of the acquired company, or otherwise adversely affect our ability to maintain relationships with customers and employees or achieve the anticipated benefits of the acquisition. Also,

58

the negative effect of any divestitures required by regulatory authorities in acquisitions or business combinations may be greater than expected.

LEGISLATIVE RISK
Our business model depends on sharing information among the family of companies owned by Wells Fargo to better satisfy our customers’ needs. Laws that restrict the ability of our companies to share information about customers could negatively affect our revenue and profit.

OUR BUSINESS COULD SUFFER IF WE FAIL TO ATTRACT AND RETAIN SKILLED PEOPLE.
Our success depends, in large part, on our ability to attract and retain key people. Competition for the best people in most activities we engage in can be intense. We may not be able to hire the best people or to keep them.

OUR STOCK PRICE CAN BE VOLATILE.
Our stock price can fluctuate widely in response to a variety of factors including:

• actual or anticipated variations in our quarterly operating results;

• recommendations by securities analysts;

• new technology used, or services offered, by our competitors;

• significant acquisitions or business combinations, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments by or involving us or our competitors;

• failure to integrate our acquisitions or realize anticipated benefits from our acquisitions;

• operating and stock price performance of other companies that investors deem comparable to us;

• news reports relating to trends, concerns and other issues in the financial services industry;

• changes in government regulations; and

• geopolitical conditions such as acts or threats of terrorism or military conflicts.

      General market fluctuations, industry factors and general economic and political conditions and events, such as terrorist attacks, economic slowdowns or recessions, interest rate changes, credit loss trends or currency fluctuations, also could cause our stock price to decrease regardless of our operating results.

Additional Information

Our common stock is traded on the New York Stock Exchange and the Chicago Stock Exchange. The common stock prices in the graphs below were reported on the New York Stock Exchange Composite Transaction Reporting System. The number of holders of record of our common stock was 94,669 at January 31, 2005.

      Our chief executive officer certified to the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) that, as of May 14, 2004, he was not aware of any violation by the Company of the NYSE’s corporate governance listing standards. The certifications of our chief

executive officer and chief financial officer required under Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 were filed as Exhibits 31(a) and 31(b), respectively, to our 2004 Form 10-K.

      Our annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, and amendments to those reports, are available free of charge on or through our website (www.wellsfargo.com), as soon as reasonably practicable after they are electronically filed with or furnished to the SEC. Those reports and amendments are also available free of charge on the SEC’s website (www.sec.gov).

Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As required by SEC rules, the Company’s management evaluated the effectiveness, as of December 31, 2004, of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. The Company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer participated in the evaluation. Based on this evaluation, the Company’s chief executive officer and the chief financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2004.

Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company’s principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by the company’s board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

• Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of assets of the company;

• Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and

• Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

      Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. No change occurred during fourth quarter 2004 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report on internal control over financial reporting is set forth below, and should be read with these limitations in mind.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company. Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004, using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control – Integrated Framework. Based on this assessment, management concluded that as of December 31, 2004, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective.

      KPMG LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm that audited the Company’s financial statements included in this Annual Report, issued an audit report on management’s assessment of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. KPMG’s audit report appears on the following page.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Wells Fargo & Company:

      We have audited management’s assessment, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, that Wells Fargo & Company and Subsidiaries (“the Company”) maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management’s assessment and an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

      We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, evaluating management’s assessment, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

      A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

      Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

      In our opinion, management’s assessment that Wells Fargo & Company and Subsidiaries maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004, is fairly stated, in all material respects, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Also in our opinion, Wells Fargo & Company and Subsidiaries maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

      We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of Wells Fargo & Company and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in stockholders’ equity and comprehensive income, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2004, and our report dated February 23, 2005 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

Notes to Financial Statements

Note 1:   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Wells Fargo & Company is a diversified financial services company. We provide banking, insurance, investments, mortgage banking and consumer finance through banking stores, the internet and other distribution channels to consumers, businesses and institutions in all 50 states of the U.S. and in other countries. In this Annual Report, Wells Fargo & Company and Subsidiaries (consolidated) are called the Company. Wells Fargo & Company (the Parent) is a financial holding company and a bank holding company.

      Our accounting and reporting policies conform with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and practices in the financial services industry. To prepare the financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management must make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and income and expenses during the reporting period. Management has made significant estimates in several areas, including the allowance for credit losses (Note 6), valuing mortgage servicing rights (Notes 21 and 22) and pension accounting (Note 16). Actual results could differ from those estimates.

      The following is a description of our significant accounting policies.

Consolidation
Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Parent and our majority-owned subsidiaries and variable interest entities (VIEs) (defined below) in which we are the primary beneficiary. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. If we own at least 20% of an affiliate, we generally account for the investment using the equity method. If we own less than 20% of an affiliate, we generally carry the investment at cost, except marketable equity securities, which we carry at fair value with changes in fair value included in other comprehensive income. Assets accounted for under the equity or cost method are included in other assets.

      In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Interpretation No. 46 (FIN 46), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities and, in December 2003, issued Revised Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (FIN 46R), which replaced FIN 46. This set forth the rules of consolidation for certain entities, VIEs, in which the equity investors do not have a controlling financial interest or do not have enough equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. An enterprise’s variable interest arises from contractual, ownership or other monetary interests in the entity, which change with fluctuations in the entity’s net asset value. Effective for VIEs formed after January 31, 2003, and effective for all existing VIEs on

December 31, 2003, we consolidate a VIE if we are the primary beneficiary because we will absorb a majority of the entity’s expected losses, receive a majority of the entity’s expected residual returns, or both.

Trading Assets
Trading assets are primarily securities, including corporate debt, U.S. government agency obligations and other securities that we acquire for short-term appreciation or other trading purposes, and the fair value of derivatives held for customer accommodation purposes or proprietary trading. Trading assets are carried at fair value, with realized and unrealized gains and losses recorded in noninterest income.

Securities
SECURITIES AVAILABLE FOR SALE  Debt securities that we might not hold until maturity and marketable equity securities are classified as securities available for sale and reported at estimated fair value. Unrealized gains and losses, after applicable taxes, are reported in cumulative other comprehensive income. We use current quotations, where available, to estimate the fair value of these securities. Where current quotations are not available, we estimate fair value based on the present value of future cash flows, adjusted for the quality rating of the securities, prepayment assumptions and other factors.

      We reduce the asset value when we consider the declines in the value of debt securities and marketable equity securities to be other-than-temporary and record the estimated loss in noninterest income. The initial indicator of impairment for both debt and marketable equity securities is a sustained decline in market price below the amount recorded for that investment. We consider the length of time and the extent to which market value has been less than cost and any recent events specific to the issuer and economic conditions of its industry.

      For marketable equity securities, we also consider:

• the issuer’s financial condition, capital strength, and near-term prospects; and

• to a lesser degree, our investment horizon in relationship to an anticipated near-term recovery in the stock price, if any.

      For debt securities we also consider:

• the cause of the price decline – general level of interest rates and broad industry factors or issuer-specific;

• the issuer’s financial condition and current ability to make future payments in a timely manner;

• our investment horizon;

• the issuer’s ability to service debt; and

• any change in agencies’ ratings at evaluation date from acquisition date and any likely imminent action.

66

      We manage these investments within capital risk limits approved by management and the Board and monitored by the Corporate Asset/Liability Management Committee. We recognize realized gains and losses on the sale of these securities in noninterest income using the specific identification method.

      Unamortized premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income over the contractual life of the security using the interest method. As principal repayments are received on securities (i.e. primarily mortgage-backed securities) a pro-rata portion of the unamortized premium or discount is recognized in interest income.

NONMARKETABLE EQUITY SECURITIES Nonmarketable equity securities include venture capital equity securities that are not publicly traded and securities acquired for various purposes, such as to meet regulatory requirements (for example, Federal Reserve Bank and Federal Home Loan Bank stock). We review these assets at least quarterly for possible other-than-temporary impairment. Our review typically includes an analysis of the facts and circumstances of each investment, the expectations for the investment’s cash flows and capital needs, the viability of its business model and our exit strategy. These securities are accounted for under the cost or equity method and are included in other assets. We reduce the asset value when we consider declines in value to be other-than-temporary. We recognize the estimated loss as a loss from equity investments in noninterest income.

Mortgages Held for Sale
Mortgages held for sale are stated at the lower of total cost or market value. Gains and losses on loan sales (sales proceeds minus carrying value) are recorded in noninterest income. Direct loan origination costs and fees are deferred at origination of the loan. These deferred costs and fees are recognized in mortgage banking noninterest income upon sale of the loan.

Loans Held for Sale
Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or market value. Direct loan origination costs and fees are deferred at origination of the loan. Gains and losses on loan sales (sales proceeds minus carrying value) are recorded in noninterest income.

Loans
Loans are reported at the principal amount outstanding, net of unearned income, except for purchased loans, which are recorded at fair value on the purchase date. Unearned income includes deferred fees net of deferred direct incremental loan origination costs. We amortize unearned income to interest income, over periods not exceeding the contractual life of the loan, using the interest method.

      From time to time, we pledge loans, primarily 1-4 family mortgage loans, to secure borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank.

NONACCRUAL LOANS We generally place loans on nonaccrual status (1) when the full and timely collection of interest or principal becomes uncertain, (2) when they are 90 days (120 days with respect to real estate 1-4 family first and junior lien mortgages) past due for interest or principal (unless both well-secured and in the process of collection) or (3) when part of the principal balance has been charged off. Generally, consumer loans not secured by real estate are placed on nonaccrual status only when part of the principal has been charged off. These loans are entirely charged off when deemed uncollectible or when they reach a defined number of days past due based on loan product, industry practice, country, terms and other factors.

      When we place a loan on nonaccrual status, we reverse the accrued and unpaid interest receivable against interest income and account for the loan on the cash or cost recovery method, until it qualifies for return to accrual status. Generally, we return a loan to accrual status (a) when all delinquent interest and principal becomes current under the terms of the loan agreement or (b) when the loan is both well-secured and in the process of collection and collectibility is no longer doubtful, after a period of demonstrated performance.

IMPAIRED LOANS We assess, account for and disclose as impaired certain nonaccrual commercial loans and commercial real estate mortgage and construction loans that are over $3 million. We consider a loan to be impaired when, based on current information and events, we will probably not be able to collect all amounts due according to the loan contract, including scheduled interest payments.

      When we identify a loan as impaired, we measure the impairment using discounted cash flows, except when the sole (remaining) source of repayment for the loan is the operation or liquidation of the collateral. In these cases we use the current fair value of the collateral, less selling costs, instead of discounted cash flows.

      If we determine that the value of the impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan (net of previous charge-offs, deferred loan fees or costs and unamortized premium or discount), we recognize impairment through an allocated reserve or a charge-off to the allowance.

ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES The allowance for credit losses, which comprises the allowance for loan losses and the reserve for unfunded credit commitments, is management’s estimate of credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. Our determination of the allowance, and the resulting provision, is based on judgments and assumptions, including (1) general economic conditions, (2) loan portfolio composition, (3) loan loss experience, (4) management’s evaluation of credit risk relating to pools of loans and individual borrowers, (5) sensitivity analysis and expected loss models and (6) observations from our internal auditors, internal loan review staff or our banking regulators.

67

Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets
We account for a transfer of financial assets as a sale when we surrender control of the transferred assets. Servicing rights and other retained interests in the sold assets are recorded by allocating the previously recorded investment between the assets sold and the interest retained based on their relative fair values at the date of transfer. We determine the fair values of servicing rights and other retained interests at the date of transfer using the present value of estimated future cash flows, using assumptions that market participants use in their estimates of values. We use quoted market prices when available to determine the value of other retained interests.

      We recognize the rights to service mortgage loans for others, or mortgage servicing rights (MSRs), as assets whether we purchase the servicing rights or sell or securitize loans we originate and retain servicing rights. MSRs are amortized in proportion to, and over the period of, estimated net servicing income. The amortization of MSRs is analyzed monthly and is adjusted to reflect changes in prepayment speeds.

      To determine the fair value of MSRs, we use a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income. We use assumptions in the valuation model that market participants use in estimating future net servicing income, including estimates of prepayment speeds, discount rate, cost to service, escrow account earnings, contractual servicing fee income, ancillary income and late fees.

      Each quarter, we evaluate MSRs for possible impairment based on the difference between the carrying amount and current fair value, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 140 (FAS 140), Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities. To evaluate and measure impairment we stratify the portfolio based on certain risk characteristics, including loan type and note rate. If temporary impairment exists, we establish a valuation allowance through a charge to net income for any excess of amortized cost over the current fair value, by risk stratification. If we later determine that all or a portion of the temporary impairment no longer exists for a particular risk stratification, we will reduce the valuation allowance through an increase to net income.

      Under our policy, we also evaluate other-than-temporary impairment of MSRs by considering both historical and projected trends in interest rates, pay off activity and whether the impairment could be recovered through interest rate increases. We recognize a direct write-down when we determine that the recoverability of a recorded valuation allowance is remote. A direct write-down permanently reduces the carrying value of the MSRs, while a valuation allowance (temporary impairment) can be reversed.

      Mortgages held for sale include residential mortgages that were originated in accordance with secondary market pricing and underwriting standards and certain mortgages originated initially for investment and not underwritten to secondary market standards. Net gains and losses on mortgage loan origination/sales activities reflect the periodic evaluation of our portfolios, which are carried at the lower of cost or market value.

Premises and Equipment
Premises and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Capital leases are included in premises and equipment at the capitalized amount less accumulated amortization.

      Primarily we use the straight-line method of depreciation and amortization. Estimated useful lives range up to 40 years for buildings, up to 10 years for furniture and equipment, and the shorter of the estimated useful life or lease term for leasehold improvements. We amortize capitalized leased assets on a straight-line basis over the lives of the respective leases.

Goodwill and Identifiable Intangible Assets
Goodwill is recorded when the purchase price is higher than the fair value of net assets acquired in business combinations under the purchase method of accounting.

      Effective January 1, 2002, we assess goodwill for impairment annually, and more frequently in certain circumstances. We assess goodwill for impairment on a reporting unit level by applying a fair-value-based test using discounted estimated future net cash flows. Impairment exists when the carrying amount of the goodwill exceeds its implied fair value. We recognize impairment losses as a charge to noninterest expense (unless related to discontinued operations) and an adjustment to the carrying value of the goodwill asset. Subsequent reversals of goodwill impairment are prohibited. In 2002, our initial goodwill impairment testing resulted in a $276 million (after tax), $404 million (before tax), transitional impairment charge reported as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle.

      We amortize core deposit intangibles on an accelerated basis based on useful lives of 10 to 15 years. We review core deposit intangibles for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Impairment is indicated if the sum of undiscounted estimated future net cash flows is less than the carrying value of the asset. Impairment is permanently recognized by writing down the asset to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value.

68

Operating Lease Assets
Operating lease rental income for leased assets, generally automobiles, is recognized in other income on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Related depreciation expense is recorded on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease, taking into account the estimated residual value of the leased asset. On a periodic basis, leased assets are reviewed for impairment. Impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of leased assets exceeds fair value and is not recoverable. The carrying amount of leased assets is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the lease payments and the estimated residual value upon the eventual disposition of the equipment. Auto lease receivables are written off when 120 days past due.

Pension Accounting
We account for our defined benefit pension plans using an actuarial model required by FAS 87, Employers’ Accounting for Pensions. This model allocates pension costs over the service period of employees in the plan. The underlying principle is that employees render service ratably over this period and, therefore, the income statement effects of pensions should follow a similar pattern.

      One of the principal components of the net periodic pension calculation is the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets. The use of an expected long-term rate of return on plan assets may cause us to recognize pension income returns that are greater or less than the actual returns of plan assets in any given year.

      The expected long-term rate of return is designed to approximate the actual long-term rate of return over time and is not expected to change significantly. Therefore, the pattern of income/expense recognition closely matches the stable pattern of services provided by our employees over the life of our pension obligation. To determine if the expected rate of return is reasonable, we consider such factors as (1) the actual return earned on plan assets, (2) historical rates of return on the various asset classes in the plan portfolio, (3) projections of returns on various asset classes, and (4) current/prospective capital market conditions and economic forecasts. Differences in each year, if any, between expected and actual returns are included in our unrecognized net actuarial gain or loss amount. We generally amortize any unrecognized net actuarial gain or loss in excess of a 5% corridor (as defined in FAS 87) in net periodic pension calculations over the next five years.

      We use a discount rate to determine the present value of our future benefit obligations. The discount rate reflects the rates available at the measurement date on long-term high-quality fixed-income debt instruments and is reset annually on the measurement date (November 30).

Income Taxes
We file a consolidated federal income tax return and, in certain states, combined state tax returns.

      We determine deferred income tax assets and liabilities using the balance sheet method. Under this method, the net deferred tax asset or liability is based on the tax effects of the differences between the book and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and recognizes enacted changes in tax rates and laws. Deferred tax assets are recognized subject to management judgment that realization is more likely than not. Foreign taxes paid are generally applied as credits to reduce federal income taxes payable.

Stock-Based Compensation
We have several stock-based employee compensation plans, which are described more fully in Note 15. As permitted by FAS 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, we have elected to continue applying the intrinsic value method of Accounting Principles Board Opinion 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, in accounting for stock-based employee compensation plans. Pro forma net income and earnings per common share information is provided below, as if we accounted for employee stock option plans under the fair value method of FAS 123.

      Total stock-based employee compensation was higher under the fair value method in 2004 compared with 2003. Stock options granted in our February 2004 grant, under our Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan (the Plan), fully vested upon grant, resulting in full recognition of stock-based compensation expense for the 2004 annual grant under the fair value method in the table on the previous page. Stock options granted in our 2003, 2002 and 2001 annual grants under the Plan vest over a three-year period, and expense reflected in the table for these grants is recognized over the vesting period.

Earnings Per Common Share
We present earnings per common share and diluted earnings per common share. We compute earnings per common share by dividing net income (after deducting dividends on preferred stock) by the average number of common shares outstanding during the year. We compute diluted earnings per common share by dividing net income (after deducting dividends on preferred stock) by the average number of common shares outstanding during the year, plus the effect of common stock equivalents (for example, stock options, restricted share rights and convertible debentures) that are dilutive.

Derivatives and Hedging Activities
We recognize all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. On the date we enter into a derivative contract, we designate the derivative as (1) a hedge of the fair value of a recognized asset or liability (“fair value” hedge), (2) a hedge of a forecasted transaction or of the variability of cash flows to be received or paid related to a recognized asset or liability (“cash flow” hedge) or (3) held for trading, customer accommodation or a contract not qualifying for hedge accounting (“free-standing derivative”). For a fair value hedge, we record changes in the fair value of the derivative and, to the extent that it is effective, changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability, attributable to the hedged risk, in current period net income in the same financial statement category as the hedged item. For a cash flow hedge, we record changes in the fair value of the derivative to the extent that it is effective in other comprehensive income. We subsequently reclassify these changes in fair value to net income in the same period(s) that the hedged transaction affects net income in the same financial statement category as the hedged item. For free-standing derivatives, we report changes in the fair values in current period noninterest income.

      We formally document the relationship between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as our risk management objective and strategy for various hedge transactions. This includes linking all derivatives designated as fair value or cash flow hedges to specific assets and liabilities on the balance sheet or to specific forecasted transactions. We also

formally assess, both at the inception of the hedge and on an ongoing basis, if the derivatives we use are highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values or cash flows of hedged items. If we determine that a derivative is not highly effective as a hedge, we discontinue hedge accounting.

      We discontinue hedge accounting prospectively when (1) a derivative is no longer highly effective in offsetting changes in the fair value or cash flows of a hedged item, (2) a derivative expires or is sold, terminated, or exercised, (3) a derivative is dedesignated as a hedge, because it is unlikely that a forecasted transaction will occur, or (4) we determine that designation of a derivative as a hedge is no longer appropriate.

      When we discontinue hedge accounting because a derivative no longer qualifies as an effective fair value hedge, we continue to carry the derivative on the balance sheet at its fair value with changes in fair value included in earnings, and no longer adjust the previously hedged asset or liability for changes in fair value. Previous adjustments to the hedged item are accounted for in the same manner as other components of the carrying amount of the asset or liability.

      When we discontinue hedge accounting because it is probable that a forecasted transaction will not occur, we continue to carry the derivative on the balance sheet at its fair value with changes in fair value included in earnings, and immediately recognize gains and losses that were accumulated in other comprehensive income in earnings.

      When we discontinue hedge accounting because the hedging instrument is sold, terminated, or no longer designated (dedesignated), the amount reported in other comprehensive income up to the date of sale, termination or dedesignation continues to be reported in other comprehensive income until the forecasted transaction affects earnings.

      In all other situations in which we discontinue hedge accounting, the derivative will be carried at its fair value on the balance sheet, with changes in its fair value recognized in current period earnings.

      We occasionally purchase or originate financial instruments that contain an embedded derivative. At inception of the financial instrument, we assess (1) if the economic characteristics of the embedded derivative are clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics of the financial instrument (host contract), (2) if the financial instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative and the host contract is measured at fair value with changes in fair value reported in earnings, or (3) if a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded instrument would meet the definition of a derivative. If the embedded derivative does not meet any of these conditions, we separate it from the host contract and carry it at fair value with changes recorded in current period earnings.

Note 2:   Business Combinations

We regularly explore opportunities to acquire financial services companies and businesses. Generally, we do not make a public announcement about an acquisition opportunity until a definitive agreement has been signed.

      Effective December 31, 2004, we completed the acquisition of $29 billion in assets under management, comprising $24 billion in mutual fund assets and $5 billion in institutional investment accounts, from Strong Financial Corporation. Other business combinations completed in 2004, 2003 and 2002 were:

      At December 31, 2004, we had two pending business combinations with total assets of approximately $720 million. We expect to complete these transactions by second quarter 2005.

      For information on contingent consideration related to acquisitions, which are considered guarantees, see Note 25.

Note 3:   Cash, Loan and Dividend Restrictions

Federal Reserve Board regulations require that each of our subsidiary banks maintain reserve balances on deposits with the Federal Reserve Banks. The average required reserve balance was $1.2 billion and $1.0 billion in 2004 and 2003, respectively.

      Federal law restricts the amount and the terms of both credit and non-credit transactions between a bank and its nonbank affiliates. They may not exceed 10% of the bank’s capital and surplus (which for this purpose represents Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital, as calculated under the risk-based capital guidelines, plus the balance of the allowance for credit losses excluded from Tier 2 capital) with any single nonbank affiliate and 20% of the bank’s capital and surplus with all its nonbank affiliates. Transactions that are extensions of credit may require collateral to be held to provide added security to the bank. (For further discussion of risk-based capital, see Note 26.)

      Dividends paid by our subsidiary banks are subject to various federal and state regulatory limitations. Dividends that may be paid by a national bank without the express approval of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) are limited to that bank’s retained net profits for the preceding two calendar years plus retained net profits up to the date of any dividend declaration in the current calendar year. Retained net profits, as defined by the OCC, consist of net income less dividends declared during the period. We also have state-chartered subsidiary banks that are subject to state regulations that limit dividends. Under those provisions, our national and state-chartered subsidiary banks could have declared additional dividends of $1,154 million and $844 million at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively, without obtaining prior regulatory approval. In addition, our nonbank subsidiaries could have declared additional dividends of $1,638 million and $1,682 million at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

      We had a limited number of debt securities in a continuous loss position for 12 months or more at December 31, 2004, which consisted of asset-backed securities, bonds and notes. Because the declines in fair value were due to changes in market interest rates, not in estimated cash flows, and because we have the intent and ability to retain our investment in the issuer for a period of time to allow for any anticipated recovery in market value, no other-than-temporary impairment was recorded at December 31, 2004.

      Securities pledged where the secured party has the right to sell or repledge totaled $2.3 billion at December 31, 2004, and $3.2 billion at December 31, 2003. Securities pledged where the secured party does not have the right to sell or repledge totaled $19.4 billion at December 31, 2004, and $18.6 billion at December 31, 2003, primarily to secure trust and public deposits and for other purposes as required or permitted by law. We have accepted collateral in the form of securities that we have the right to sell or repledge of $2.5 billion at December 31, 2004, and $2.1 billion at December 31, 2003, of which we sold or repledged $1.7 billion and $1.8 billion, respectively.

Note 6:   Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses

A summary of the major categories of loans outstanding is shown in the following table. Outstanding loan balances at December 31, 2004 and 2003, are net of unearned income, including net deferred loan fees, of $3,766 million and $3,430 million, respectively.

      At December 31, 2004 and 2003, we did not have any concentrations greater than 10% of total loans included in

any of the following loan categories: commercial loans by industry; commercial real estate loans by state or property type; real estate 1–4 family first and junior lien mortgages by state, except for California, which represented 18% of total loans at December 31, 2004, and 19% of total loans at December 31, 2003; or other revolving credit and installment loans by product type.

      In assessing adequate compensation for the credit risk presented by a customer, we may require collateral. We hold various types of collateral, including accounts receivable, inventory, land, buildings, equipment, income-producing commercial properties and residential real estate. Collateral requirements for each customer may vary according to the specific credit underwriting, terms and structure of loans funded immediately or under a commitment to fund at a later date.

      A commitment to extend credit is a legally binding agreement to lend funds to a customer, usually at a stated interest rate and for a specified purpose. These commitments have fixed expiration dates and generally require a fee. When we make such a commitment, we have credit risk. The liquidity requirements or credit risk will be lower than the contractual amount of commitments to extend credit because a significant portion of these commitments are expected to expire without being used. Certain commitments are subject to loan agreements with covenants regarding the financial performance of the customer that must be met before we are required to fund the commitment. We use the same credit policies for commitments to extend credit that we use in making loans. For information on standby letters of credit, see Note 25.

      In addition, we manage the potential risk in credit commitments by limiting the total amount of arrangements, both by individual customer and in total, by monitoring the size and maturity structure of these portfolios and by applying the same credit standards for all of our credit activities.

      The total of our unfunded loan commitments, net of all funds lent and all standby and commercial letters of credit issued under the terms of these commitments, is summarized by loan categories in the following table.

(1) Effective September 30, 2004, we transferred the portion of the allowance for loan losses related to commercial lending commitments and letters of credit to other liabilities.

      We have an established process to determine the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses that assesses the risks and losses inherent in our portfolio. This process supports an allowance consisting of two components, allocated and unallocated. For the allocated component, we combine estimates of the allowances needed for loans analyzed on a pooled basis and loans analyzed individually (including impaired loans).

      Approximately two-thirds of the allocated allowance is determined at a pooled level for retail loan portfolios (consumer loans and leases, home mortgage loans, and some segments of small business loans). We use forecasting models to measure inherent loss in these portfolios. We frequently validate and update these models to capture recent behavioral characteristics of the portfolios, as well as any changes in our loss mitigation or marketing strategies.

75

      We use a standardized loan grading process for wholesale loan portfolios (commercial, commercial real estate, real estate construction and leases) and review larger higher-risk transactions individually. Based on this process, we assign a loss factor to each pool of graded loans. For graded loans with evidence of credit weakness at December 31, 2004, the loss factors are derived from migration models that track loss content associated with actual portfolio movements between loan grades over a specified period of time. For graded loans without evidence of credit weakness at December 31, 2004, we use a combination of our long-term average loss experience and external loss data. In addition, we individually review nonperforming loans over $3 million for impairment based on cash flows or collateral. We include the impairment on nonperforming loans in the allocated allowance unless it has already been recognized as a loss.

      The potential risk from unfunded loan commitments and letters of credit for wholesale loan portfolios is considered along with the loss analysis of loans outstanding. Unfunded commercial loan commitments and letters of credit are converted to a loan equivalent factor as part of the analysis. At December 31, 2004, the reserve for these unfunded credit commitments was $188 million, less than 5% of the allowance for credit losses. At December 31, 2003, 3% of the total allowance for credit losses related to this potential risk.

      The allocated allowance is supplemented by the unallocated allowance to adjust for imprecision and to incorporate the range of probable outcomes inherent in estimates used for the allocated allowance. The unallocated allowance is the result of our judgment of risks inherent in the portfolio, economic uncertainties, historical loss experience and other subjective factors, including industry trends.

      The ratios of the allocated allowance and the unallocated allowance to the total allowance may change from period to period. The total allowance reflects management’s estimate of credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio, including unfunded commitments, at December 31, 2004.

      Like all national banks, our subsidiary national banks continue to be subject to examination by their primary regulator, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), and some have OCC examiners in residence. The OCC examinations occur throughout the year and target various activities of our subsidiary national banks, including both the loan grading system and specific segments of the loan portfolio (for example, commercial real estate and shared national credits). The Parent and its nonbank subsidiaries are examined by the Federal Reserve Board.

      We consider the allowance for credit losses of $3.95 billion adequate to cover credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio, including unfunded commitments, at December 31, 2004.

      Nonaccrual loans were $1,358 million and $1,458 million at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Loans past due 90 days or more as to interest or principal and still accruing interest were $2,578 million at December 31, 2004 and $2,337 million at December 31, 2003. The 2004 and 2003 balances included $1,820 million and $1,641 million, respectively, in advances pursuant to our servicing agreements to the Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA) mortgage pools whose repayments are insured by the Federal Housing Administration or guaranteed by the Department of Veteran Affairs. Prior to clarifying guidance issued in 2003 as to classification as loans, GNMA advances were included in other assets.

      The recorded investment in impaired loans and the methodology used to measure impairment was:

(in millions)	December 31				,

Impairment measurement based on:
Collateral value method	$	183	$	386
Discounted cash flow method		126		243
Total (1)	$	309	$	629

(1) Includes $107 million and $59 million of impaired loans with a related allowance of $17 million and $8 million at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

      The average recorded investment in impaired loans during 2004, 2003 and 2002 was $481 million, $668 million and $705 million, respectively.

      All of our impaired loans are on nonaccrual status. When the ultimate collectibility of the total principal of an impaired loan is in doubt, all payments are applied to principal, under the cost recovery method. When the ultimate collectibility of the total principal of an impaired loan is not in doubt, contractual interest is credited to interest income when received, under the cash basis method. Total interest income recognized for impaired loans in 2004, 2003 and 2002 under the cash basis method was not significant.

      We based the projections of amortization expense for mortgage servicing rights shown above on existing asset balances and the existing interest rate environment as of December 31, 2004. Future amortization expense may be significantly different depending upon changes in the mortgage servicing portfolio, mortgage interest rates and market conditions. We based the projections of amortization expense for core deposit intangibles shown above on existing asset balances at December 31, 2004. Future amortization expense may vary based on additional core deposit intangibles acquired through business combinations.

Note 9: Goodwill

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill as allocated to our operating segments for goodwill impairment analysis were:

(in millions)	Community			Wholesale		Wells Fargo		Consolidated
	Banking			Banking		Financial		Company
December 31, 2002	$	6,743		$	2,667	$	343	$	9,753

Foreign currency translation adjustments		—			—		3		3
December 31, 2004	$	7,291		$	3,037	$	353	$	10,681

      For goodwill impairment testing, enterprise-level goodwill acquired in business combinations is allocated to reporting units based on the relative fair value of assets acquired and recorded in the respective reporting units. Through this allocation, we assigned enterprise-level goodwill to the reporting units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. We used discounted estimated future net cash flows to evaluate goodwill reported at all reporting units.

      For our goodwill impairment analysis, we allocate all of the goodwill to the individual operating segments. For management reporting we do not allocate all of the goodwill to the individual operating segments: some is allocated at the enterprise level. See Note 20 for further information on management reporting. The balances of goodwill for management reporting were:

(in millions)	Community		Wholesale		Wells Fargo		Enterprise		Consolidated

      Demand deposit overdrafts of $470 million and $655 million were included as loan balances at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

Note 11: Short-Term Borrowings

The table below shows selected information for short-term borrowings, which generally mature in less than 30 days.

      At December 31, 2004, we had $1.09 billion available in lines of credit. These financing arrangements require the

maintenance of compensating balances or payment of fees, which were not material.

(1)	We entered into interest rate swap agreements for a major portion of these notes, whereby we receive fixed-rate interest payments approximately equal to interest on the notes and make interest payments based on an average three-month or six-month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR).
(2)	The extendable notes are floating-rate securities with an initial maturity of 13 months, which can be extended on a rolling monthly basis, at the investor’s option, to a final maturity of 5 years.
(3)	These notes are linked to baskets of equities, commodities or equity indices.
(4)	On April 15, 2003, we issued $3 billion of convertible senior debentures as a private placement. In November 2004, we amended the indenture under which the debentures were issued to eliminate a provision in the indenture that prohibited us from paying cash upon conversion of the debentures if an event of default as defined in the indenture exists at the time of conversion. We then made an irrevocable election under the indenture on December 15, 2004, that upon conversion of the debentures, we must satisfy the accreted value of the obligation (the amount accrued to the benefit of the holder exclusive of the conversion spread) in cash and may satisfy the conversion spread (the excess conversion value over the accreted value) in either cash or stock. We can also redeem all or some of the convertible debt securities for cash at any time on or after May 5, 2008, at their principal amount plus accrued interest, if any.

      The interest rates on floating-rate notes are determined periodically by formulas based on certain money market rates, subject, on certain notes, to minimum or maximum interest rates.

      As part of our long-term and short-term borrowing arrangements, we are subject to various financial and operational covenants. Some of the agreements under which debt has been issued have provisions that may limit the merger or sale of certain subsidiary banks and the issuance of capital stock or convertible securities by certain subsidiary banks. At December 31, 2004, we were in compliance with all the covenants.

Note 13: Guaranteed Preferred Beneficial Interests in Company’s Subordinated Debentures

Effective December 31, 2003, as a result of the adoption of FIN 46R we deconsolidated certain wholly-owned trusts formed for the sole purpose of issuing trust preferred securities (the Trusts). With respect to those Trusts that would otherwise be subject to reporting obligations under SEC rules and regulations, the Parent has provided a full and unconditional guarantee of the trust preferred securities, and the Trusts have no operating histories or independent operations and are not engaged in and do not propose to engage in any other activity.

      Information with respect to the Trusts is summarized in the table to the right and information with respect to the Parent is included in Note 23 (Condensed Consolidating Financial Statements). The trust preferred securities qualified as Tier 1 capital. See Note 26 (Regulatory and Agency Capital Requirements). The junior subordinated debentures

held by the Trusts are included in the Company’s long-term debt. See Note 12 (Long-Term Debt). Prior to December 31, 2003, the Trusts were consolidated subsidiaries and the trust preferred securities were included in liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet, as “Guaranteed preferred beneficial interests in Company’s subordinated debentures.”

Note 14: Preferred Stock

We are authorized to issue 20 million shares of preferred stock and 4 million shares of preference stock, both without par value. Preferred shares outstanding rank senior to common shares both as to dividends and liquidation preference but have no general voting rights. We have not issued any preference shares under this authorization.

      On November 15, 2003, all shares of the Adjustable-Rate Cumulative, Series B, preferred stock were redeemed. Preferred dividends of $3 million and $4 million were declared in 2003 and 2002, respectively.

ESOP CUMULATIVE CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK

All shares of our ESOP Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (ESOP Preferred Stock) were issued to a trustee acting on behalf of the Wells Fargo & Company 401(k) Plan.

Dividends on the ESOP Preferred Stock are cumulative from the date of initial issuance and are payable quarterly at annual rates ranging from 8.50% to 12.50%, depending upon the year of issuance. Each share of ESOP Preferred Stock released from the unallocated reserve of the 401(k) Plan is converted into shares of our common stock based on the stated value of the ESOP Preferred Stock and the then current market price of our common stock. The ESOP Preferred Stock is also convertible at the option of the holder at any time, unless previously redeemed. We have the option to redeem the ESOP Preferred Stock at any time, in whole or in part, at a redemption price per share equal to the higher of (a) $1,000 per share plus accrued and unpaid dividends or (b) the fair market value, as defined in the Certificates of Designation of the ESOP Preferred Stock.

Note 15: Common Stock and Stock Plans

Common Stock

Our reserved, issued and authorized shares of common stock at December 31, 2004, were:

	Number of shares
Dividend reinvestment and common stock purchase plans		2,304,973
Director plans		734,684
Stock plans (1)		212,321,072
Total shares reserved		215,360,729
Shares issued		1,736,381,025
Shares not reserved		4,048,258,246
Total shares authorized		6,000,000,000

(1) Includes employee option, restricted shares and restricted share rights, 401(k), profit sharing and compensation deferral plans.

Dividend Reinvestment and Common Stock Purchase Plans

Participants in our dividend reinvestment and common stock direct purchase plans may purchase shares of our common stock at fair market value by reinvesting dividends and/or making optional cash payments, under the plan’s terms.

Director Plans

We provide a stock award to non-employee directors as part of their annual retainer under our director plans. We also provide annual grants of options to purchase common stock to each non-employee director elected or re-elected at the annual meeting of stockholders. The options can be exercised after six months and through the tenth anniversary of the grant date.

Employee Stock Plans

LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLANS Our stock incentive plans provide for awards of incentive and nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted shares, restricted share rights, performance awards and stock awards without restrictions. We can grant employee stock options with exercise prices at or above the fair market value (as defined in the plan) of the stock at the date of grant and with terms of up to ten years. Options granted in 2003 and prior generally become fully exercisable over three years from the date of grant. Options granted in 2004 generally vest fully upon grant. Except as otherwise permitted under the plan, if employment is ended for reasons other than retirement, permanent disability or death, the option period is reduced or the options are canceled.

      Options also may include the right to acquire a “reload” stock option. If an option contains the reload feature and if a participant pays all or part of the exercise price of the option with shares of stock purchased in the market or held by the participant for at least six months, upon exercise of the option, the participant is granted a new option to purchase, at the fair market value of the stock as of the date of the reload, the number of shares of stock equal to the sum of the number of shares used in payment of the exercise price and a number of shares with respect to related statutory minimum withholding taxes. Options granted in 2004 did not include a reload feature.

      We did not record any compensation expense for the options granted under the plans during 2004, 2003 and 2002, as the exercise price was equal to the quoted market price of the stock at the date of grant. The total number of shares of common stock available for grant under the plans at December 31, 2004, was 38,417,959.

      Holders of restricted shares and restricted share rights are entitled to the related shares of common stock at no cost generally over three to five years after the restricted shares or restricted share rights were granted. Holders of restricted shares generally are entitled to receive cash dividends paid on the shares. Holders of restricted share rights generally are entitled to receive cash payments equal to the cash dividends that would have been paid had the restricted share rights been issued and outstanding shares of common stock. Except in limited circumstances, restricted shares and restricted share rights are canceled when employment ends.

      In 2004, no restricted shares or restricted share rights were granted. In 2003 and 2002, 61,740 and 81,380 restricted shares and restricted share rights were granted, respectively, with a weighted-average grant-date per share fair value of $56.05 and $45.47, respectively. At December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, there were 448,150, 577,722 and 656,124 restricted shares and restricted share rights outstanding, respectively. The compensation expense for the restricted shares and restricted share rights equals the quoted market price of the related stock at the date of grant and is accrued over the vesting period. We recognized total compensation expense for the restricted shares and restricted share rights of $3 million in 2004, $4 million in 2003 and $5 million in 2002.

      For various acquisitions and mergers since 1992, we converted employee and director stock options of acquired or merged companies into stock options to purchase our common stock based on the terms of the original stock option plan and the agreed-upon exchange ratio.

BROAD-BASED PLANS In 1996, we adopted the PartnerShares^® Stock Option Plan, a broad-based employee stock option plan. It covers full- and part-time employees who were not included in the long-term incentive plans described on the preceding page. The total number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance under the plan since inception through December 31, 2004, was 74,000,000, including 21,194,286 shares available for grant. The exercise date of options granted under the PartnerShares Plan is the earlier of (1) five years after the date of grant or (2) when the quoted

market price of the stock reaches a predetermined price. These options generally expire ten years after the date of grant. Because the exercise price of each PartnerShares grant has been equal to or higher than the quoted market price of our common stock at the date of grant, we do not recognize any compensation expense.

      The following table summarizes stock option activity and related information for the three years ended December 31, 2004.

EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN Under the Wells Fargo & Company 401(k) Plan (the 401(k) Plan), a defined contribution employee stock ownership plan (ESOP), the 401(k) Plan may borrow money to purchase our common or preferred stock. Beginning in 1994, we have loaned money to the 401(k) Plan to purchase shares of our ESOP Preferred Stock. As we release and convert ESOP Preferred Stock into common shares, we record compensation expense equal to the current market price of the common shares. Dividends on the common shares allocated as a result of the release and conversion of the ESOP Preferred Stock reduce retained

earnings and the shares are considered outstanding for computing earnings per share. Dividends on the unallocated ESOP Preferred Stock do not reduce retained earnings, and the shares are not considered to be common stock equivalents for computing earnings per share. Loan principal and interest payments are made from our contributions to the 401(k) Plan, along with dividends paid on the ESOP Preferred Stock. With each principal and interest payment, a portion of the ESOP Preferred Stock is released and, after conversion of the ESOP Preferred Stock into common shares, allocated to the 401(k) Plan participants.

      The balance of ESOP shares, the dividends on allocated shares of common stock and unreleased preferred shares paid to the 401(k) Plan and the fair value of unearned ESOP shares were:

Deferred Compensation Plan for Independent Sales Agents

WF Deferred Compensation Holdings, Inc. is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Parent formed solely to sponsor a deferred compensation plan for independent sales agents who provide investment, financial and other qualifying services for or with respect to participating affiliates.

The plan, which became effective January 1, 2002, allows participants to defer all or part of their eligible compensation payable to them by a participating affiliate. The Parent has fully and unconditionally guaranteed the deferred compensation obligations of WF Deferred Compensation Holdings, Inc. under the plan.

Note 16: Employee Benefits and Other Expenses

Employee Benefits

We sponsor noncontributory qualified defined benefit retirement plans including the Cash Balance Plan. The Cash Balance Plan is an active plan that covers eligible employees (except employees of certain subsidiaries).

      Under the Cash Balance Plan, eligible employees’ Cash Balance Plan accounts are allocated a compensation credit based on a percentage of their certified compensation. The compensation credit percentage is based on age and years of credited service. In addition, investment credits are allocated to participants quarterly based on their accumulated balances. Employees become vested in their Cash Balance Plan accounts after completing five years of vesting service or reaching age 65, if earlier. Pension benefits accrued before the conversion to the Cash Balance Plan are guaranteed. In addition, certain employees are eligible for a special transition benefit.

      Although we were not required to make a minimum contribution in 2004 for our Cash Balance Plan, we funded the maximum amount deductible under the Internal Revenue Code, or $535 million. The total amount contributed for our pension plans was $580 million. We expect that we will not be required to make a minimum contribution in 2005 for the Cash Balance Plan. The maximum contribution amount in 2005 for the Cash Balance Plan depends on several factors, including the finalization of participant data. Our decision on how much to contribute, if any, depends on other factors, including the actual investment performance of plan assets. Given these uncertainties, we cannot at this time reliably estimate the maximum deductible contribution or the amount that we will contribute in 2005 to the Cash Balance Plan. For the unfunded nonqualified pension plans and postretirement benefit plans, we will contribute the minimum

required amount in 2005, which equals the benefits paid under the plans. In 2004, we paid $70 million in benefits for the postretirement plans, which included $26 million in retiree contributions, and $25 million for the unfunded pension plans.

      We sponsor defined contribution retirement plans including the 401(k) Plan. Under the 401(k) Plan, after one month of service, eligible employees may contribute up to 25% of their pretax certified compensation, although there may be a lower limit for certain highly compensated employees in order to maintain the qualified status of the 401(k) Plan. Eligible employees who complete one year of service are eligible for matching company contributions, which are generally a 100% match up to 6% of an employee’s certified compensation. The matching contributions generally vest over four years.

      At the end of 2004, we committed to make a special contribution in shares of Wells Fargo common stock to the 401(k) Plan for eligible team members, equaling 1% of a team member’s pay, up to a maximum of $750, resulting in an additional $44 million in employee benefits expense.

      Expenses for defined contribution retirement plans were $356 million, $257 million and $248 million in 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

      We provide health care and life insurance benefits for certain retired employees and reserve the right to terminate or amend any of the benefits at any time.

      The information set forth in the following tables is based on current actuarial reports using the measurement date of November 30 for our pension and postretirement benefit plans.

      The changes in the projected benefit obligation during 2004 and 2003 and the amounts included in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2004 and 2003, were:

Fair value of plan assets at end of year	$	4,457		$	—		$	329		$	3,690		$	—		$	272

      We seek to achieve the expected long-term rate of return with a prudent level of risk given the benefit obligations of the pension plans and their funded status. We target the Cash Balance Plan’s asset allocation for a target mix range of 40-70% equities, 20-50% fixed income, and approximately 10% in real estate, venture capital and other investments. The target ranges employ a Tactical

Asset Allocation overlay, which is designed to overweight stocks or bonds when a compelling opportunity exists. The Employee Benefit Review Committee (EBRC), which includes several members of senior management, formally reviews the investment risk and performance of the Cash Balance Plan on a quarterly basis. Annual Plan liability analysis and periodic asset/liability evaluations are also conducted.

      The weighted-average assumptions used to determine the net periodic benefit cost were:

	Year ended December 31																	,
	2004						2003						2002
	Pension			Other			Pension			Other			Pension			Other
	benefits		(1)	benefits			benefits		(1)	benefits			benefits		(1)	benefits
Discount rate		6.5	%		6.5	%		7.0	%		7.0	%		7.5	%		7.5	%
Expected return on plan assets		9.0			9.0			9.0			9.0			9.0			9.0
Rate of compensation increase		4.0			—			4.0			—			4.0			—

(1) Includes both qualified and nonqualified pension benefits.

      The long-term rate of return assumptions above were derived based on a combination of factors including (1) long-term historical return experience for major asset class categories (i.e., large cap and small cap domestic equities, international equities and domestic fixed income), and (2) forward-looking return expectations for these major asset classes.

      To account for postretirement health care plans we use a health care cost trend rate to recognize the effect of expected changes in future health care costs due to medical inflation, utilization changes, new technology, regulatory requirements and Medicare cost shifting. We assumed average annual increases of 10.5% for health care costs for 2005. The rate of average annual increases is assumed to trend down 1% each year between 2005 and 2010. By 2010 and thereafter, we assumed rates of 5.5% for HMOs and for all other types of coverage. Increasing the assumed health care trend by one percentage point in each year would increase the benefit obligation as of December 31, 2004, by $64 million and the total of the interest cost and service cost components of the net periodic benefit cost for 2004 by $6 million. Decreasing the assumed health care trend by one percentage point in each year would decrease the benefit obligation as of December 31, 2004, by $57 million and the total of the interest cost and service cost components of the net periodic benefit cost for 2004 by $5 million.

      The investment strategy for the postretirement plans is maintained separate from the strategy for the pension plans. The general target asset mix is 55-65% equities and 35-45% fixed income. In addition, the Retiree Medical Plan VEBA considers the effect of income taxes by utilizing a combination of variable annuity and low turnover investment strategies. Members of the EBRC formally review the investment risk and performance of the postretirement plans on a quarterly basis.

      Future benefits, reflecting expected future service that we expect to pay under the pension and other benefit plans were:

      The tax benefit related to the exercise of employee stock options recorded in stockholders’ equity was $175 million, $148 million and $73 million for 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

      We had a net deferred tax liability of $4,940 million and $4,517 million at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The tax effects of temporary differences that gave rise to significant portions of deferred tax assets and liabilities are presented in the table to the right.

      We have determined that a valuation reserve is not required for any of the deferred tax assets since it is more likely than not that these assets will be realized principally through carry back to taxable income in prior years, future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, and, to a lesser extent, future taxable income and tax planning strategies. Our conclusion that it is “more likely than not” that the deferred tax assets will be realized is based on federal taxable income in excess of $13 billion in the carry-back period, substantial state taxable income in the carry-back period, as well as a history of growth in earnings.

      The deferred tax liability related to 2004, 2003 or 2002 unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale along with the deferred tax liability related to derivative and hedging activities for 2004 and 2003, had no effect on income tax expense as these gains and losses, net of taxes, were recorded in cumulative other comprehensive income.

      On October 22, 2004, Congress passed the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004, which creates a temporary incentive for U.S. multinationals to repatriate accumulated income earned abroad by providing an 85% dividends-received deduction on certain dividends from controlled foreign corporations. To qualify for the deduction, the dividends must be reinvested in the U.S. in accordance with a qualified plan adopted by a company’s CEO and Board of Directors. We have completed our evaluation of the repatriation provisions and we do not anticipate that the potential income tax effects of any repatriation will have a material effect on our financial statements.

Note 20: Operating Segments

We have three lines of business for management reporting: Community Banking, Wholesale Banking and Wells Fargo Financial. The results for these lines of business are based on our management accounting process, which assigns balance sheet and income statement items to each responsible operating segment. This process is dynamic and, unlike financial accounting, there is no comprehensive, authoritative guidance for management accounting equivalent to generally accepted accounting principles. The management accounting process measures the performance of the operating segments based on our management structure and is not necessarily comparable with similar information for other financial services companies. We define our operating segments by product type and customer segments. If the management structure and/or the allocation process changes, allocations, transfers and assignments may change. In that case, results for prior periods would be restated for comparability.

      The Community Banking Group offers a complete line of diversified financial products and services to consumers and small businesses with annual sales generally up to $10 million in which the owner generally is the financial decision maker. Community Banking also offers investment management and other services to retail customers and high net worth individuals, insurance, securities brokerage through affiliates and venture capital financing. These products and services include the Wells Fargo Funds^®, a family of mutual funds, as well as personal trust, employee benefit trust and agency assets. Loan products include lines of credit, equity lines and loans, equipment and transportation (auto, recreational vehicle and marine) loans, education loans, origination and purchase of residential mortgage loans and servicing of mortgage loans and credit cards. Other credit products and financial services available to small businesses and their owners include receivables and inventory financing, equipment leases, real estate financing, Small Business Administration financing, venture capital financing, cash management, payroll services, retirement plans, medical savings accounts and credit and debit card processing. Consumer and business deposit products include checking accounts, savings deposits, market rate accounts, Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs), time deposits and debit cards.

      Community Banking serves customers through a wide range of channels, which include traditional banking stores, in-store banking centers, business centers and ATMs. Also, Phone Bank^SM centers and the National Business Banking Center provide 24-hour telephone service. Online banking services include single sign-on to online banking, bill pay and brokerage, as well as online banking for small business.

      The Wholesale Banking Group serves businesses across the United States with annual sales generally in excess of $10 million. Wholesale Banking provides a complete line of commercial, corporate and real estate banking products and services. These include traditional commercial loans and lines of credit, letters of credit, asset-based lending, equipment leasing, mezzanine financing, high-yield debt, international trade facilities, foreign exchange services, treasury management, investment management, institutional fixed income and equity sales, online/electronic products such as the CEO^® (Commercial Electronic Office^®) portal, insurance brokerage services and investment banking services. Wholesale Banking manages and administers institutional investments and mutual funds, including the Wells Fargo Funds. Upon the second quarter 2005 merger of the Wells Fargo Funds and certain funds acquired in the Strong Financial transaction, we will rename our mutual fund family the Wells Fargo Advantage Funds^SM. Wholesale Banking includes the majority ownership interest in the Wells Fargo HSBC Trade Bank, which provides trade financing, letters of credit and collection services and is sometimes supported by the Export-Import Bank of the United States (a public agency of the United States offering export finance support for American-made products). Wholesale Banking also supports the commercial real estate market with products and services such as construction loans for commercial and residential development, land acquisition and development loans, secured and unsecured lines of credit, interim financing arrangements for completed structures, rehabilitation loans, affordable housing loans and letters of credit, permanent loans for securitization, commercial real estate loan servicing and real estate and mortgage brokerage services.

      Wells Fargo Financial includes consumer finance and auto finance operations. Consumer finance operations make direct consumer and real estate loans to individuals and purchase sales finance contracts from retail merchants from offices throughout the United States and in Canada, Latin America, the Caribbean, Guam and Saipan. Automobile finance operations specialize in purchasing sales finance contracts directly from automobile dealers and making loans secured by automobiles in the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico. Wells Fargo Financial also provides credit cards and lease and other commercial financing.

      The “Other” Column consists of Corporate level investment activities and balances and unallocated goodwill held at the enterprise level. This column also includes separately identified transactions recorded at the enterprise level for management reporting.

(1)

Net interest income is the difference between interest earned on assets and the cost of liabilities to fund those assets. Interest earned includes actual interest earned on segment assets and, if the segment has excess liabilities, interest credits for providing funding to other segments. The cost of liabilities includes interest expense on segment liabilities and, if the segment does not have enough liabilities to fund its assets, a funding charge based on the cost of excess liabilities from another segment. In general, Community Banking has excess liabilities and receives interest credits for the funding it provides the other segments.

(2)

The reconciling items for revenue (net interest income plus noninterest income) and net income principally related to Corporate level equity investment activities and other separately identified transactions recorded at the enterprise level for management reporting, including, in 2004, a $176 million loss on debt extinguishment and, in 2003, a $30 million non-recurring loss on sale of a sub-prime credit card portfolio and $51 million of other charges related to employee benefits and software. Average assets principally comprise unallocated goodwill held at the enterprise level.

Note 21: Securitizations and Variable Interest Entities

We routinely originate, securitize and sell into the secondary market home mortgage loans and, from time to time, other financial assets, including student loans, commercial mortgage loans, home equity loans, auto receivables and securities. We typically retain the servicing rights and may retain other beneficial interests from these sales. These securitizations are usually structured without recourse to us and with no restrictions on the retained interests. We do not have significant credit risks from the retained interests.

      We recognized gains of $379 million from sales of financial assets in securitizations in 2004 and $393 million in 2003. Additionally, we had the following cash flows with our securitization trusts.

Servicing fees		88		—		60		8
Cash flows on other retained interests		138		11		137		9

      In the normal course of creating securities to sell to investors, we may sponsor special-purpose entities which hold, for the benefit of the investors, financial instruments that are the source of payment to the investors. Special-purpose entities are consolidated unless they meet the criteria for a qualifying special-purpose entity in accordance with FAS 140 or are not required to be consolidated under existing accounting guidance.

      For securitizations completed in 2004 and 2003, we used the following assumptions to determine the fair value of mortgage servicing rights and other retained interests at the date of securitization.

	Mortgage						Other retained
	servicing rights						interests
	2004			2003			2004			2003
Prepayment speed (annual CPR (1))(2)		16.8	%		15.1	%		14.9	%		18.0	%

(1)	Constant prepayment rate
(2)	Represents weighted averages for all retained interests resulting from securitizations completed in 2004 and 2003.

      In 2004, we retained some AAA-rated floating-rate mortgage-backed securities. The fair value at the date of securitization was determined using quoted market prices. The implied CPR, life, and discount spread to LIBOR curve at the date of securitization is presented in the following table.

	Retained interest – AAA

	2004
Prepayment speed (annual CPR)		34.8	%
Life (in years)		2.2
Discount spread to LIBOR (1) curve		.32	%

(1) London Interbank Offered Rate

      At December 31, 2004, key economic assumptions and the sensitivity of the current fair value of mortgage servicing rights, both purchased and retained, and other retained interests related to residential mortgage loan securitizations to immediate adverse changes in those assumptions are presented in the table below.

($ in millions)	Mortgage			Other retained

Fair value of retained interests	$	7,911		$	134

      At December 31, 2004, key economic assumptions and the sensitivity of the current fair value of the AAA-rated floating-rate mortgage-backed securities related to residential mortgage loan securitizations to immediate adverse changes in those assumptions are presented in the table on the next page. The fair value of these securities was determined using quoted market prices.

Discount spread to LIBOR curve assumption		.40	%
Decrease in fair value from 10 basis point adverse change	$	2
Decrease in fair value from 20 basis point adverse change		3

      The sensitivities in the previous tables are hypothetical and should be used with caution. Changes in fair value based on a 10% variation in assumptions generally cannot be extrapolated because the relationship of the change in the assumption to the change in fair value may not be linear. Also, in the previous tables, the effect of a variation in a particular assumption on the fair value of the retained interest is calculated independently without changing any other assumption. In reality, changes in one factor may result in changes in another (for example, changes in prepayment speed estimates could result in changes in the discount rates), which might magnify or counteract the sensitivities.

      This table presents information about the principal balances of managed and securitized loans.

      We are a variable interest holder in certain special-purpose entities that are consolidated because we absorb a majority of each entity’s expected losses, receive a majority of each entity’s expected returns or both. We do not hold a majority voting interest in these entities. Substantially all of these entities were formed to invest in securities and to securitize real estate investment trust securities and had approximately $6 billion and $5 billion in total assets at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The primary activities of these entities consist of acquiring and disposing of, and investing and reinvesting in securities, and issuing beneficial interests secured by those securities to investors. The creditors of substantially all of these consolidated entities have no recourse against us.

      We hold variable interests greater than 20% but less than 50% in certain special-purpose entities formed to provide affordable housing and to securitize high-yield corporate debt that had approximately $3 billion and $2 billion in total assets at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. We are not required to consolidate these entities. Our maximum exposure to loss as a result of our involvement with these unconsolidated variable interest entities was approximately $950 million and $450 million at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively, primarily representing investments in entities formed to invest in affordable housing. We, however, expect to recover our investment over time through realization of federal low-income housing tax credits.

Note 22: Mortgage Banking Activities

      Mortgage banking activities, included in the Community Banking and Wholesale Banking operating segments, consist of residential and commercial mortgage originations and servicing.

      The components of mortgage banking noninterest income were:

(in millions)	Year ended December 31							,
	2004		2003			2002

(1) Includes impairment write-downs on other retained interests of nil, $79 million and $567 million for 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

      Each quarter, we evaluate MSRs for possible impairment based on the difference between the carrying amount and current fair value of the MSRs. If a temporary impairment exists, we establish a valuation allowance for any excess of amortized cost, as adjusted for hedge accounting, over the current fair value through a charge to income. We have a policy of reviewing MSRs for other-than-temporary impairment each quarter and recognize a direct write-down when the recoverability of a recorded valuation allowance is determined to be remote. Unlike a valuation allowance, a direct write-down permanently reduces the carrying value of the MSRs and the valuation allowance, precluding subsequent reversals. (See Note 1 – Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets for additional discussion of our policy for valuation of MSRs.)

Note 24: Legal Actions

In the normal course of business, we are subject to pending and threatened legal actions, some for which the relief or damages sought are substantial. After reviewing pending and threatened actions with counsel, and any specific reserves established for such matters, management believes that the outcome of such actions will not have a material adverse

effect on the results of operations or stockholders’ equity. We are not able to predict whether the outcome of such actions may or may not have a material adverse effect on results of operations in a particular future period as the timing and amount of any resolution of such actions and its relationship to the future results of operations are not known.

Note 25: Guarantees

We provide significant guarantees to third parties including standby letters of credit, various indemnification agreements, guarantees accounted for as derivatives, contingent consideration related to business combinations and contingent performance guarantees.

      We issue standby letters of credit, which include performance and financial guarantees, for customers in connection with contracts between the customers and third parties. Standby letters of credit assure that the third parties will receive specified funds if customers fail to meet their contractual obligations. We are obliged to make payment if a customer defaults. Standby letters of credit were $9.4 billion and $8.3 billion at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively, including financial guarantees of $5.3 billion and $4.7 billion, respectively, that we had issued or purchased participations in. Standby letters of credit are net of participations sold to other institutions and were $1.7 billion and $1.5 billion at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. We consider the credit risk in standby letters of credit in determining the allowance for credit losses. Deferred fees for these standby letters of credit were not significant to our financial statements. We also had commitments for commercial and similar letters of credit of $731 million and $810 million at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

      We enter into indemnification agreements in the ordinary course of business under which we agree to indemnify third parties against any damages, losses and expenses incurred in connection with legal and other proceedings arising from relationships or transactions with us. These relationships or transactions include those arising from service as a director or officer of the Company, underwriting agreements relating to our securities, securities lending, acquisition agreements, and various other business transactions or arrangements. Because the extent of our obligations under these agreements depends entirely upon the occurrence of future events, our potential future liability under these agreements is not determinable.

      We write options, floors and caps. Options are exercisable based on favorable market conditions. Periodic settlements occur on floors and caps based on market conditions. At December 31, 2004 and 2003, the fair value of the written options liability in our balance sheet was $292 million and $382 million, respectively, and the written floors and caps

liability was $227 million and $213 million, respectively. Our ultimate obligation under written options, floors and caps is based on future market conditions and is only quantifiable at settlement. We offset substantially all options written to customers with purchased options.

      We also enter into credit default swaps under which we buy loss protection from or sell loss protection to a counterparty in the event of default of a reference obligation. The carrying amount of the contracts sold was a $2 million liability at December 31, 2004, and a $5 million liability at December 31, 2003. The maximum amount we would be required to pay under the swaps in which we sold protection, assuming all reference obligations default at a total loss, without recoveries, was $2.6 billion and $2.7 billion at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. We purchased $2.8 billion notional of credit default swaps to mitigate the exposure of the written credit default swaps at December 31, 2004 and 2003. Almost all of these purchased credit default swaps had terms (i.e., use the same reference obligation and maturity) that would offset our exposure from the written default swap contracts in which we are providing protection to a counterparty.

      In connection with certain brokerage, asset management and insurance agency acquisitions we have made, the terms of the acquisition agreements provide for deferred payments or additional consideration based on certain performance targets. At December 31, 2004 and 2003, the amount of contingent consideration we expected to pay was not significant to our financial statements.

      We have entered into various contingent performance guarantees through credit risk participation arrangements with terms ranging from 1 to 30 years. We will be required to make payments under these guarantees if a customer defaults on its obligation to perform under certain credit agreements with third parties. Because the extent of our obligations under these guarantees depends entirely on future events, our potential future liability under these agreements is not fully determinable. However, our exposure under most of the agreements can be quantified and for those agreements our exposure was contractually limited to an aggregate liability of approximately $370 million at December 31, 2004 and $330 million at December 31, 2003.

105

Note 26: Regulatory and Agency Capital Requirements

The Company and each of its subsidiary banks are subject to various regulatory capital adequacy requirements administered by the Federal Reserve Board and the OCC, respectively. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (FDICIA) required that the federal regulatory agencies adopt regulations defining five capital tiers for banks: well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized and critically undercapitalized. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on our financial statements.

      Quantitative measures, established by the regulators to ensure capital adequacy, require that the Company and each of the subsidiary banks maintain minimum ratios (set forth in the table below) of capital to risk-weighted assets. There are three categories of capital under the guidelines. Tier 1 capital includes common stockholders’ equity, qualifying preferred stock and trust preferred securities, less goodwill and certain other deductions (including the unrealized net gains and losses, after applicable taxes, on securities available for sale carried at fair value). Tier 2 capital includes preferred stock not qualifying as Tier 1 capital, subordinated debt, the allowance for credit losses and net unrealized gains on marketable equity securities, subject to limitations by the guidelines. Tier 2 capital is limited to the amount of Tier 1 capital (i.e., at least half of the total capital must be in the form of Tier 1 capital). Tier 3 capital includes certain qualifying unsecured subordinated debt.

      On December 31, 2003, we deconsolidated our wholly-owned trusts (the Trusts) that were formed to issue trust preferred securities and related common securities of the Trusts. The $3.8 billion of junior subordinated debentures

were reflected as long-term debt on the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2003. (See Note 13.) The trust preferred securities continue to qualify as Tier 1 capital under guidance issued by the Federal Reserve Board.

      Under the guidelines, capital is compared with the relative risk related to the balance sheet. To derive the risk included in the balance sheet, a risk weighting is applied to each balance sheet asset and off-balance sheet item, primarily based on the relative credit risk of the counterparty. For example, claims guaranteed by the U.S. government or one of its agencies are risk-weighted at 0% and certain real estate related loans risk-weighted at 50%. Off-balance sheet items, such as loan commitments and derivatives, are also applied a risk weight after calculating balance sheet equivalent amounts. A credit conversion factor is assigned to loan commitments based on the likelihood of the off-balance sheet item becoming an asset. For example, certain loan commitments are converted at 50% and then risk-weighted at 100%. Derivatives are converted to balance sheet equivalents based on notional values, replacement costs and remaining contractual terms. (See Notes 6 and 27 for further discussion of off-balance sheet items.) Effective January 1, 2002, federal banking agencies amended the regulatory capital guidelines regarding the treatment of certain recourse obligations, direct credit substitutes, residual interests in asset securitization, and other securitized transactions that expose institutions primarily to credit risk. The amendment creates greater differentiation in the capital treatment of residual interests. The capital amounts and classification under the guidelines are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.

106

      Management believes that, as of December 31, 2004, the Company and each of the covered subsidiary banks met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

      The most recent notification from the OCC categorized each of the covered subsidiary banks as well capitalized, under the FDICIA prompt corrective action provisions applicable to banks. To be categorized as well capitalized, the institution must maintain a total risk-based capital ratio as set forth in table on the previous page and not be subject to a capital directive order. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have

changed the risk-based capital category of any of the covered subsidiary banks.

      Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., through its mortgage banking division, is an approved seller/servicer, and is required to maintain minimum levels of shareholders’ equity, as specified by various agencies, including the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development, Government National Mortgage Association, Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation and Federal National Mortgage Association. At December 31, 2004, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. met these requirements.

Note 27: Derivatives

Our approach to managing interest rate risk includes the use of derivatives. This helps minimize significant unplanned fluctuations in earnings, fair values of assets and liabilities, and cash flows caused by interest rate volatility. This approach involves modifying the repricing characteristics of certain assets and liabilities so that changes in interest rates do not have a significant adverse effect on the net interest margin and cash flows. As a result of interest rate fluctuations, hedged assets and liabilities will gain or lose market value. In a fair value hedging strategy, the effect of this unrealized gain or loss will generally be offset by income or loss on the derivatives linked to the hedged assets and liabilities. In a cash flow hedging strategy, we manage the variability of cash payments due to interest rate fluctuations by the effective use of derivatives linked to hedged assets and liabilities.

      We use derivatives as part of our interest rate risk management, including interest rate swaps, caps and floors, futures and forward contracts, and options. We also offer various derivatives, including interest rate, commodity, equity, credit and foreign exchange contracts, to our customers but usually offset our exposure from such contracts by purchasing other financial contracts. The customer accommodations and any offsetting financial contracts are treated as free-standing derivatives. Free-standing derivatives also include derivatives we enter into for risk management that do not otherwise qualify for hedge accounting. To a lesser extent, we take positions based on market expectations or to benefit from price differentials between financial instruments and markets.

      By using derivatives, we are exposed to credit risk if counterparties to financial instruments do not perform as expected. If a counterparty fails to perform, our credit risk is equal to the fair value gain in a derivative contract. We minimize credit risk through credit approvals, limits and monitoring procedures. Credit risk related to derivatives is considered and, if material, provided for separately. As we

generally enter into transactions only with counterparties that carry high quality credit ratings, losses from counterparty nonperformance on derivatives have not been significant. Further, we obtain collateral where appropriate to reduce risk. To the extent the master netting arrangements meet the requirements of FASB Interpretation No. 39, Offsetting of Amounts Related to Certain Contracts, as amended by FASB Interpretation No. 41, Offsetting of Amounts Related to Certain Repurchase and Reverse Repurchase Agreements, amounts are shown net in the balance sheet.

      Our derivative activities are monitored by the Corporate Asset/Liability Management Committee. Our Treasury function, which includes asset/liability management, is responsible for various hedging strategies developed through analysis of data from financial models and other internal and industry sources. We incorporate the resulting hedging strategies into our overall interest rate risk management and trading strategies.

Fair Value Hedges

We use derivatives to manage the risk of changes in the fair value of mortgage servicing rights and other retained interests. Derivative gains or losses caused by market conditions (volatility) and the spread between spot and forward rates priced into the derivative contracts (the passage of time) are excluded from the evaluation of hedge effectiveness, but are reflected in earnings. The change in value of derivatives excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness was a net gain of $944 million, $908 million and $1,201 million in 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The ineffective portion of the change in value of these derivatives was a net loss of $390 million in 2004 and a net gain of $203 million and $1,125 million in 2003 and 2002, respectively. The net derivative gain was $554 million, $1,111 million and $2,326 million in 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Net derivative gains and losses are included in “Servicing fees, net of amortization and provision for impairment” in Note 22.

107

      In 2002, we began using derivatives to hedge changes in fair value of our commercial real estate mortgages and franchise loans due to changes in LIBOR interest rates. We originate a portion of these loans with the intent to sell them. The ineffective portion of these fair value hedges was a net loss of $21 million, $22 million and $3 million in 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively, recorded as part of mortgage banking noninterest income in the statement of income. For the commercial real estate hedges, all parts of each derivative’s gain or loss are included in the assessment of hedge effectiveness.

      We also enter into interest rate swaps, designated as fair value hedges, to convert certain of our fixed-rate long-term debt to floating-rate debt. The ineffective part of these fair value hedges was not significant in 2004, 2003 or 2002. For long-term debt, all parts of each derivative’s gain or loss are included in the assessment of hedge effectiveness.

      At December 31, 2004, all designated fair value hedges continued to qualify as fair value hedges.

Cash Flow Hedges

We use derivatives to convert floating-rate loans to fixed rates and to hedge forecasted sales of mortgage loans. We also hedge floating-rate senior debt against future interest rate increases by using interest rates swaps to convert floating-rate senior debt to fixed rates and by using interest rate caps. We recognized a net gain of $10 million in 2004, which represents the total ineffectiveness of cash flow hedges, compared with a net gain of $72 million in 2003 and a net loss of $311 million in 2002. Gains and losses on derivatives that are reclassified from cumulative other comprehensive income to current period earnings, are included in the line item in which the hedged item’s effect in earnings is recorded. All parts of gain or loss on these derivatives are included in the assessment of hedge effectiveness. As of December 31, 2004, all designated cash flow hedges continued to qualify as cash flow hedges.

      At December 31, 2004, we expected that $8 million of deferred net losses on derivatives in other comprehensive income will be reclassified as earnings during the next twelve months, compared with $9 million and $125 million of deferred net losses at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. We are hedging our exposure to the variability of future cash flows for all forecasted transactions for a maximum of one year for hedges converting floating-rate loans to fixed, seven years for hedges of floating-rate senior debt and one year for hedges of forecasted sales of mortgage loans.

Free-Standing Derivatives

We enter into various derivatives primarily to provide derivative products to customers. To a lesser extent, we take positions based on market expectations or to benefit from price differentials between financial instruments and markets. These derivatives are not linked to specific assets and liabilities on the balance sheet or to forecasted transactions in an accounting hedge relationship and, therefore, do not qualify for hedge accounting. They are carried at fair value with changes in fair value recorded as part of other noninterest income in the statement of income.

      Interest rate lock commitments for residential mortgage loans that we intend to resell are considered free-standing derivatives. Our interest rate exposure on these derivative loan commitments is economically hedged with options, futures and forwards. The commitments and free-standing derivatives are carried at fair value with changes in fair value recorded as a part of mortgage banking noninterest income in the statement of income. We record a zero fair value for a derivative loan commitment at inception consistent with EITF 02-3, Issues Involved in Accounting for Derivative Contracts Held for Trading Purposes and Contracts Involved in Energy Trading and Risk Management Activities, and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 105, Application of Accounting Principles to Loan Commitments. Changes subsequent to inception are based on changes in fair value of the underlying loan resulting from the exercise of the commitment and changes in the probability that the loan will fund within the terms of the commitment, which is affected primarily by changes in interest rates and passage of time. The aggregate fair value of derivative loan commitments on the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2004 and 2003, was a net liability of $38 million and $44 million, respectively; and is included in the caption “Interest rate contracts – Options written” under Customer Accommodations and Trading in the following table.

Note 28: Fair Value of Financial Instruments

FAS 107, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments, requires that we disclose estimated fair values for our financial instruments. This disclosure should be read with the financial statements and Notes to Financial Statements in this Annual Report. The carrying amounts in the following table are recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheet under the indicated captions.

      We base fair values on estimates or calculations using present value techniques when quoted market prices are not available. Because broadly-traded markets do not exist for most of our financial instruments, we try to incorporate the effect of current market conditions in the fair value calculations. These valuations are our estimates, and are often calculated based on current pricing policy, the economic and competitive environment, the characteristics of the financial instruments and other such factors. These calculations are subjective, involve uncertainties and significant judgment and do not include tax ramifications. Therefore, the results cannot be determined with precision, substantiated by comparison to independent markets and may not be realized in an actual sale or immediate settlement of the instruments. There may be inherent weaknesses in any calculation technique, and changes in the underlying assumptions used, including discount rates and estimates of future cash flows, that could significantly affect the results.

      We have not included certain material items in our disclosure, such as the value of the long-term relationships with our deposit, credit card and trust customers, since these intangibles are not financial instruments. For all of these reasons, the total of the fair value calculations presented do not represent, and should not be construed to represent, the underlying value of the Company.

Financial Assets

SHORT-TERM FINANCIAL ASSETS

Short-term financial assets include cash and due from banks, federal funds sold and securities purchased under resale agreements and due from customers on acceptances. The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the relatively short time between the origination of the instrument and its expected realization.

TRADING ASSETS

Trading assets are carried at fair value.

SECURITIES AVAILABLE FOR SALE

Securities available for sale are carried at fair value. For further information, see Note 5.

MORTGAGES HELD FOR SALE

The fair value of mortgages held for sale is based on quoted market prices or on what secondary markets are currently offering for portfolios with similar characteristics.

LOANS HELD FOR SALE

The fair value of loans held for sale is based on what secondary markets are currently offering for portfolios with similar characteristics.

LOANS

The fair valuation calculation differentiates loans based on their financial characteristics, such as product classification, loan category, pricing features and remaining maturity. Prepayment estimates are evaluated by product and loan rate.

      The fair value of commercial loans, other real estate mortgage loans and real estate construction loans is calculated by discounting contractual cash flows using discount rates that reflect our current pricing for loans with similar characteristics and remaining maturity.

      For real estate 1-4 family first and junior lien mortgages, fair value is calculated by discounting contractual cash flows, adjusted for prepayment estimates, using discount rates based on current industry pricing for loans of similar size, type, remaining maturity and repricing characteristics.

      For consumer finance and credit card loans, the portfolio’s yield is equal to our current pricing and, therefore, the fair value is equal to book value.

      For other consumer loans, the fair value is calculated by discounting the contractual cash flows, adjusted for prepayment estimates, based on the current rates we offer for loans with similar characteristics.

      Loan commitments, standby letters of credit and commercial and similar letters of credit not included in the following table had contractual values of $164.0 billion, $9.4 billion and $731 million, respectively, at December 31, 2004, and $126.0 billion, $8.3 billion and $810 million, respectively, at December 31, 2003. These instruments generate ongoing fees at our current pricing levels. Of the commitments at December 31, 2004, 40% mature within one year. Deferred fees on commitments and standby letters of credit totaled $46 million and $38 million at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Carrying cost estimates fair value for these fees.

NONMARKETABLE EQUITY INVESTMENTS

There are generally restrictions on the sale and/or liquidation of our nonmarketable equity investments, including federal bank stock. Federal bank stock carrying value approximates fair value. We use all facts and circumstances available to estimate the fair value of our cost method investments. We typically consider our access to and need for capital (including recent or projected financing activity), qualitative assessments of the viability of the investee, and prospects for its future.

110

Financial Liabilities

DEPOSIT LIABILITIES

FAS 107 states that the fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, such as noninterest-bearing demand deposits, interest-bearing checking and market rate and other savings, is equal to the amount payable on demand at the measurement date. The amount included for these deposits in the following table is their carrying value at December 31, 2004 and 2003. The fair value of other time deposits is calculated based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated using the rates currently offered for like wholesale deposits with similar remaining maturities.

SHORT-TERM FINANCIAL LIABILITIES

Short-term financial liabilities include federal funds purchased, securities sold under repurchase agreements, commercial paper and other short-term borrowings. The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the relatively short time between the origination of the instrument and its expected realization.

LONG-TERM DEBT

The discounted cash flow method is used to estimate the fair value of our fixed-rate long-term debt. Contractual cash flows are discounted using rates currently offered for new notes with similar remaining maturities.

Derivatives

The fair values of derivatives are reported in Note 27.

Limitations

We make these fair value disclosures to comply with the requirements of FAS 107. The calculations represent management’s best estimates; however, due to the lack of broad markets and the significant items excluded from this disclosure, the calculations do not represent the underlying value of the Company. The information presented is based on fair value calculations and market quotes as of December 31, 2004 and 2003. These amounts have not been updated since year end; therefore, the valuations may have changed significantly since that point in time.

      As discussed above, some of our asset and liability financial instruments are short-term, and therefore, the carrying amounts in the Consolidated Balance Sheet approximate fair value. Other significant assets and liabilities, which are not considered financial assets or liabilities and for which fair values have not been estimated, include premises and equipment, goodwill and other intangibles, deferred taxes and other liabilities.

      This table is a summary of financial instruments, as defined by FAS 107, excluding short-term financial assets and liabilities, for which carrying amounts approximate fair value, and trading assets, securities available for sale and derivatives, which are carried at fair value.

      We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Wells Fargo & Company and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in stockholders’ equity and comprehensive income, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2004. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

      We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

      In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Wells Fargo & Company and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2004, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

      As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company changed its method of accounting for goodwill in 2002.

      We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the effectiveness of Wells Fargo & Company and Subsidiaries’ internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), and our report dated February 23, 2005 expressed an unqualified opinion on management’s assessment of, and the effective operation of, internal control over financial reporting.
