Net Revenues

Investment Banking

Net revenues in Investment Banking were $1.72 billion, 13% higher than the second quarter of 2006 and slightly higher than the first quarter of 2007, as mergers and acquisitions and financing activity remained strong. Net revenues in Financial Advisory were $709 million, 17% higher than the second quarter of 2006, reflecting increased client activity. Net revenues in the firm’s Underwriting business were $1.01 billion, 10% higher than the second quarter of 2006, reflecting significantly higher net revenues in debt underwriting, primarily due to an increase in leveraged finance activity, partially offset by lower net revenues in equity underwriting. The firm’s investment banking transaction backlog ended the quarter at a record level. ⁽²⁾

Trading and Principal Investments

Net revenues in Trading and Principal Investments were $6.65 billion, 6% lower than the second quarter of 2006 and 29% lower than the first quarter of 2007.

Net revenues in Fixed Income, Currency and Commodities (FICC) were $3.37 billion, 24% lower than the second quarter of 2006, primarily reflecting lower net revenues in commodities and weak results in mortgages, principally attributable to continued weakness in the subprime sector. The decrease in commodities was primarily attributable to a $700 million gain in the second quarter of 2006 related to the sale of East Coast Power, L.L.C. Net revenues in interest rate products were strong but lower compared with the same prior year period. Net revenues in credit products and currencies were also strong and were higher compared with the second quarter of 2006. During the quarter, FICC operated in an environment characterized by solid customer-driven activity, generally low volatility levels and strength in the broader credit markets.

Net revenues in Equities were $2.50 billion, 6% higher than the second quarter of 2006, due to higher net revenues in principal strategies as well as higher net revenues in the shares business, primarily in Europe. These increases were partially offset by strong but lower net revenues in derivatives compared with the second quarter of 2006. Following challenging market conditions early in the quarter, Equities operated in a favorable environment characterized by generally rising equity prices and strong customer-driven activity.

Principal Investments recorded net revenues of $784 million, primarily reflecting gains and overrides from corporate principal investments. These results included a $125 million loss related to the firm’s investment in the ordinary shares of Industrial and Commercial Bank of China Limited (ICBC) and a $64 million loss related to the firm’s investment in the convertible preferred stock of Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group, Inc. (SMFG).

Asset Management and Securities Services

Net revenues in Asset Management and Securities Services were $1.81 billion, 13% higher than both the second quarter of 2006 and the first quarter of 2007.

Asset Management net revenues were $1.06 billion, 11% higher than the second quarter of 2006, reflecting a 22% increase in management and other fees, partially offset by lower incentive fees. During the quarter, assets under management increased $39 billion to $758 billion, reflecting non-money market net asset inflows of $14 billion in equity and fixed income assets, money market net asset inflows of $4 billionand market appreciation of $21 billion, primarily in equity assets.

Securities Services net revenues were $757 million, 15% higher than the second quarter of 2006, as the firm’s prime brokerage business continued to generate strong results, reflecting significantly higher customer balances in securities lending and margin lending and higher seasonal activity levels in Europe.

Expenses

Operating expenses were $6.75 billion, essentially unchanged from the second quarter of 2006 and 14% lower than the first quarter of 2007.

Compensation and Benefits

Compensation and benefits expenses were $4.89 billion, 4% lower than the second quarter of 2006, primarily reflecting the impact of a lower ratio of compensation and benefits to net revenues. The ratio of compensation and benefits to net revenues was 48.0% for the first half of 2007 compared with 50.4% for the first half of 2006. Employment levels increased 4% during the quarter.

Non-Compensation Expenses

Non-compensation expenses were $1.86 billion, 16% higher than the second quarter of 2006 and 6% higher than the first quarter of 2007. The increase compared with the second quarter of 2006 was primarily attributable to the impact of higher levels of business activity and continued geographic expansion. The majority of this increase was in brokerage, clearing, exchange and distribution fees, which principally reflected higher transaction volumesin Equities.

Provision For Taxes

The effective income tax rate for the first half of 2007 was 33.3%, down from 34.2% for the first quarter of 2007 and 34.5% for fiscal year 2006. The decreases in the effective tax rate were primarily due to changes in the geographic earnings mix and, to a lesser extent, an increase in tax credits.

Capital

As of May 25, 2007, total capital was $179.94 billion, consisting of $38.46 billion in total shareholders’ equity (common shareholders’ equity of $35.36 billion and preferred stock of $3.10 billion) and $141.48 billion in unsecured long-term borrowings. Book value per common share was $81.30 and tangible book value per common share was $69.99⁽¹⁾, an increase of 5% and 6%, respectively, compared with the end of the first quarter of 2007. Book value and tangible book value per common share are based on common shares outstanding, including restricted stock units granted to employees with no future service requirements, of 434.9 million at period end.

On May 15, 2007, two trusts created by The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (Group Inc.) issued $2.25 billion of Automatic Preferred Enhanced Capital Securities (APEX). The assets held by the trusts in support of the APEX initially consist of remarketable junior subordinated notes and preferred stock purchase contracts issued by Group Inc. and will ultimately consist of $1.75 billion of perpetual Non-Cumulative Series E Preferred Stock and $500 million of perpetual Non-Cumulative Series F Preferred Stock, that Group Inc. will issue to the trusts no later than June 1, 2013 and September 1, 2013, respectively.

The firm repurchased 5.4 million shares of its common stock at an average cost per share of $208.41, for a total cost of $1.13 billion during the quarter. The remaining authorization under the firm’s existing share repurchase program is 34.2 million shares.

Dividends

The Board of Directors of Group Inc. (the Board) declared a dividend of $0.35 per common share to be paid on August 30, 2007 to common shareholders of record on July 31, 2007. The Board also declared dividends of $390.16, $387.50, $390.16 and $385.05 per share of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock, respectively (represented by depositary shares, each representing a 1/1000th interest in a share of preferred stock), to be paid on August 10, 2007 to preferred shareholders of record on July 26, 2007.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains “forward-looking statements.” These statements are not historical facts but instead represent only the firm’s beliefs regarding future events, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and outside of the firm’s control. It is possible that the firm’s actual results and financial condition may differ, possibly materially, from the anticipated results and financial condition indicated in these forward-looking statements. For a discussion of some of the risks and important factors that could affect the firm’s future results, see “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of the firm’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 24, 2006 and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Part II, Item 7 of the firm’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 24, 2006.

Statements about the firm’s investment banking transaction backlog also may constitute forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to the risk that the terms of these transactions may be modified or that they may not be completed at all; therefore, the net revenues, if any, that the firm actually earns from these transactions may differ, possibly materially, from those currently expected. Important factors that could result in a modification of the terms of a transaction or a transaction not being completed include, in the case of underwriting transactions, a decline in general economic conditions, outbreak of hostilities, volatility in the securities markets generally or an adverse development with respect to the issuer of the securities and, in the case of financial advisory transactions, a decline in the securities markets, an adverse development with respect to a party to the transaction or a failure to obtain a required regulatory approval. For a discussion of other important factors that could adversely affect the firm’s investment banking transactions, see “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of the firm’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 24, 2006.

(1)		Tangible common shareholders’ equity equals total shareholders’ equity less preferred stock, goodwill and identifiable intangible assets, excluding power contracts. Identifiable intangible assets associated with power contracts are not deducted from total shareholders’ equity because, unlike other intangible assets, less than 50% of these assets are supported by common shareholders’ equity. Management believes that return on average tangible common shareholders’ equity (ROTE) is meaningful because it measures the performance of businesses consistently, whether they were acquired or developed internally. ROTE is computed by dividing net earnings (or annualized net earnings for annualized ROTE) applicable to common shareholders by average monthly tangible common shareholders’ equity. Tangible book value per common share is computed by dividing tangible common shareholders’ equity by the number of common shares outstanding, including restricted stock units granted to employees with no future service requirements.

		The following table sets forth a reconciliation of total shareholders’ equity to tangible common shareholders’ equity:


	Average for the						As of
	Three Months Ended			Six Months Ended
	May 25, 2007			May 25, 2007			May 25, 2007

(2)		The firm’s investment banking transaction backlog represents an estimate of the firm’s future net revenues from investment banking transactions where management believes that future revenue realization is more likely than not.

(3)		Thomson Financial – January 1, 2007 through May 25, 2007.

(4)		Excludes 4,841, 4,994 and 9,369 employees as of May 2007, February 2007 and May 2006, respectively, of consolidated entities held for investment purposes. Compensation and benefits includes $50 million, $35 million and $61 million for the three months ended May 25, 2007, February 23, 2007 and May 26, 2006, respectively, attributable to these consolidated entities.

(5)		Consolidated entities held for investment purposes are entities that are held strictly for capital appreciation, have a defined exit strategy and are engaged in activities that are not closely related to the firm’s principal businesses. For example, these investments include consolidated entities that hold real estate assets, such as hotels, but exclude investments in entities that primarily hold financial assets. Management believes that it is meaningful to review non-compensation expenses excluding expenses related to these consolidated entities in order to evaluate trends in non-compensation expenses related to the firm’s principal business activities.

(6)		VaR is the potential loss in value of Goldman Sachs’ trading positions due to adverse market movements over a one-day time horizon with a 95% confidence level. The modeling of the risk characteristics of the firm’s trading positions involves a number of assumptions and approximations. While management believes that these assumptions and approximations are reasonable, there is no standard methodology for estimating VaR, and different assumptions and/or approximations could produce materially different VaR estimates. For a further discussion of the calculation of VaR, see Part II, Item 7A “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in the firm’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 24, 2006.

(7)		Equals the difference between total VaR and the sum of the VaRs for the four risk categories. This effect arises because the four market risk categories are not perfectly correlated.

(8)		Substantially all assets under management are valued as of calendar month end.

(9)		Represents investments included within the Principal Investments component of our Trading and Principal Investments segment. Excludes assets related to consolidated investment funds of $15.56 billion as of May 2007, for which Goldman Sachs is not at risk.

(10)		Excludes an economic hedge on the shares of common stock underlying the investment. As of May 2007, the fair value of this hedge was $3.17 billion. Includes the effect of foreign exchange revaluation on the investment, for which the firm also maintains an economic hedge.

(11)		Includes interests of $3.57 billion as of May 2007 held by investment funds managed by Goldman Sachs. The fair value of the investment in the ordinary shares of ICBC, which trade on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong, includes the effect of foreign exchange revaluation.
