Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

 

(1)                     Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not include all the information and notes necessary for complete financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.  The information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is written with the presumption that the users of the interim financial statements have read or have access to the most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K of TCF Financial Corporation (“TCF” or the “Company”), which contains the latest audited financial statements and notes thereto, together with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations as of December 31, 2008 and for the year then ended.  All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.  Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period financial statements to conform to the current period presentation.  For Consolidated Statements of Cash Flow purposes, cash and cash equivalents include cash and due from banks.

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates are based on information available to management at the time the estimates are made.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring items, considered necessary for fair presentation.  The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire year.  Management has evaluated subsequent events for disclosure or recognition up to the time of filing these financial statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 28, 2009.

The investments in Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) stock are required investments related to TCF’s current and previous borrowings from these banks.  FHLBs obtain their funding primarily through issuance of consolidated obligations of the Federal Home Loan Bank system.  The U.S. Government does not guarantee these obligations, and each of the 12 FHLBs are generally jointly and severally liable for repayment of each other’s debt.  Therefore, TCF’s investments in these banks could be adversely impacted by the financial operations of the FHLBs and actions of the Federal Housing Finance Agency.

At September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, TCF had $1.8 billion of mortgage-backed securities and debentures pledged as collateral to secure certain borrowings and deposits.

 

The following table shows the securities available for sale portfolio’s gross unrealized losses and fair value, aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position.  Unrealized losses on securities available for sale are due to changes in interest rates and not due to credit quality issues.  TCF has the ability and intent to hold these investments until a recovery of fair value.  Accordingly, TCF has concluded that no other-than-temporary impairment has occurred at September 30, 2009.

Included in FHLB advances and repurchase agreements at September 30, 2009 are $600 million of fixed-rate FHLB advances and repurchase agreements, which are callable quarterly by counterparties at par until maturity.  In addition, TCF has $1.7 billion of FHLB advances and $700 million of repurchase agreements which contain one-time call provisions for various years from 2009 through 2011.

 

The probability that the advances and repurchase agreements will be called by the counterparties depends primarily on the level of related interest rates at the call date. If FHLB advances are called, replacement funding will be available from the FHLB at the then-prevailing market rate of interest for the term selected by TCF, subject to standard terms and conditions.

 

The next call year and stated maturity year for the callable FHLB advances and repurchase agreements outstanding at September 30, 2009 were as follows.

At September 30, 2009, TCF had 5.4 million shares in its stock repurchase program authorized by its Board of Directors.

 

On April 22, 2009, TCF redeemed all of the 361,172 outstanding shares of its Fixed-Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A, $.01 Par Value.  Upon redemption, the difference of $12 million between the preferred stock redemption amount and the recorded amount was charged to retained earnings as a non-cash deemed preferred stock dividend.  This non-cash deemed preferred stock dividend had no impact on total stockholders equity, but reduced earnings per diluted common share by 10 cents year-to-date.  The warrant issued to the U.S. Treasury under the Capital Purchase Program has not been repurchased and TCF has requested the U.S. Treasury to liquidate it, as required by law.

 

TCF continues to be well-capitalized based on the capital requirements determined by the Federal Reserve Board and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency.

 

The following table sets forth TCF’s and TCF National Bank’s regulatory tier 1 leverage, tier 1 risk-based and total risk-based capital levels, and applicable percentages of adjusted assets, together with the stated minimum and well-capitalized capital ratio requirements.

The minimum and well capitalized capital requirements are determined by the Federal Reserve Board for TCF and by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”) for TCF National Bank and TCF National Bank Arizona pursuant to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991.  At

 

11


 

September 30, 2009, TCF, TCF National Bank and TCF National Bank Arizona exceeded their stated regulatory capital requirements and are considered “well-capitalized”.  On October 15, 2009, TCF received approval from the OCC to merge TCF National Bank Arizona into TCF National Bank effective as of October 31, 2009.

 

(7)                      Joint Venture

 

In the third quarter of 2009, TCF formed a joint venture with The Toro Company (“Toro”) called Red Iron Acceptance, LLC (“Red Iron”). Red Iron provides U.S. distributors and dealers and select Canadian distributors of the Toro and Exmark brands with reliable, cost-effective sources of financing. TCF and Toro will maintain a 55% and 45% ownership interest, respectively, in Red Iron.  As TCF has a controlling financial interest in Red Iron, its financial results are consolidated in TCF’s financial statements.  Toro’s interest is reported as a non-controlling interest within equity and qualifies as tier 1 regulatory capital.  In October of 2009, Red Iron purchased $72.7 million of inventory finance loans from Toro.

 

(8)                      Fair Value Measurement

 

Fair values represent the estimated price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between willing market participants at the measurement date.

The change in the balance sheet carrying values associated with company determined market priced assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis during the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 was not significant.

 

Effective January 1, 2009, TCF adopted Financial Accounting Standards Codification (FASC) 820-10-65, Transition and Open Effective Date Information, which requires TCF to apply the provisions of FASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, to non-financial assets and liabilities measured on a non-recurring basis.

 

12


 

The following is a description of valuation methodologies used for assets measured on a non-recurring basis.

 

Long-lived assets held for sale Long-lived assets held for sale include real estate owned and repossessed and returned equipment. The fair value of real estate owned is based on independent full appraisals, real estate broker’s price opinions, or automated valuation methods, less estimated selling costs.  Certain properties require assumptions that are not observable in an active market in the determination of fair value.  The fair value of repossessed and returned equipment is based on available pricing guides, auction results or third-party price opinions, less estimated selling costs.  Assets that are acquired through foreclosure, repossession or return are initially recorded at the lower of the loan or lease carrying amount or fair value less estimated selling costs at the time of transfer to real estate owned or repossessed and returned equipment.  Long-lived assets held for sale were written down $9.1 million, which is included in other non-interest expense, during the nine months ended September 30, 2009.

(9)                      Fair Values of Financial Instruments

 

TCF is required to disclose the estimated fair value of financial instruments, both assets and liabilities on and off the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate fair value.  These fair value estimates are based on relevant market information and information about the financial instruments.  Fair value estimates are intended to represent the price at which an asset could be sold or a liability could be settled.  However, given there is no active market or observable market transactions for many of TCF’s financial instruments, the Company has made many estimates of fair values which are subjective in nature, involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision.  Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimated values.

 

13


 

The carrying amounts and fair values of the Company’s financial instruments are set forth in the following table.  This information represents only a portion of TCF’s balance sheet and the estimated value of the Company as a whole.  Non-financial instruments such as the value of TCF’s branches and core deposits, leasing operations and the future revenues from TCF’s customers are not reflected in this disclosure.  Therefore, use of this information to assess the value of TCF is limited.

(1)   Expected credit losses are included in the estimated fair values.

(2)   Positive amounts represent assets, negative amounts represent liabilities.

(3)   Carrying amounts are included in other assets.

(4)   Carrying amounts are included in accrued expenses and other liabilities.

 

The carrying amounts of cash and due from banks and accrued interest payable and receivable approximate their fair values due to the short period of time until their expected realization.  Securities available for sale and assets held in trust for deferred compensation plans are carried at fair value.  Certain financial instruments, including lease financings, discounted lease rentals and all non-financial instruments are excluded from fair value of financial instrument disclosure requirements.  The following methods and assumptions are used by the Company in estimating fair value for its remaining financial instruments, all of which are issued or held for purposes other than trading.

 

Investments The carrying value of investments in FHLB stock and FRB stock approximates fair value.  The fair value of other investments is estimated based on discounting cash flows at current market rates and consideration of credit exposure.

 

Loans The fair value of loans is estimated based on discounted expected cash flows.  These cash flows include assumptions for prepayment estimates over the loans’ remaining life, current market interest rates compared with the weighted average rate of each portfolio, a credit risk component based on the historical and expected performance of each portfolio and a liquidity adjustment related to the current market environment.

 

14


 

Deposits The fair value of checking, savings and money market deposits is deemed equal to the amount payable on demand.  The fair value of certificates of deposit is estimated based on discounted cash flows using current offered market rates.  The intangible value of long-term relationships with depositors is not taken into account in the fair values disclosed.

 

Borrowings The carrying amounts of short-term borrowings approximate their fair values.  The fair values of TCF’s long-term borrowings are estimated based on observable market prices and discounted cash flows using interest rates for borrowings of similar remaining maturities and characteristics.

 

Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk The fair value of TCF’s commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit are estimated using fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements as commitments and standby letters of credit similar to TCF’s are not actively traded.  Substantially all commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit have floating rates and do not expose TCF to interest rate risk; therefore fair value is approximately equal to carrying value.

(13)                Earnings Per Common Share

 

Effective January 1, 2009, TCF adopted FASC 260-10-45-60, Earnings Per Share: Participating Securities and the Two Class Method.  Entities with common stock and participating securities are required to compute earnings per share using the two-class method as described in FASC 260.

 

TCF’s restricted stock awards that pay non-forfeitable common stock dividends meet the criteria of a participating security. Accordingly, earnings per share is calculated using the two-class method, under which earnings are allocated to both common shares and participating securities. Basic and diluted earnings per share presented for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 were re-calculated in accordance with these requirements, but did not change from previously reported amounts.

The computation of basic and diluted earnings per common share is presented in the following table.

All shares of restricted stock are deducted from weighted-average shares outstanding for the computation of basic earnings per common share. Shares of performance-based non-participating restricted stock are included in the calculation of diluted earnings per common share, using the treasury stock method, at the beginning of the quarter in which the performance goals have been achieved.  All other shares of non-participating restricted stock, which vest over specified time periods, stock options, and warrant, are included in the calculation of diluted earnings per common share, using the treasury stock method.

 

For the periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, 5.1 million and 2.3 million shares were outstanding, respectively, related to non-participating restricted stock, stock options, and the warrant issued to the U.S. Treasury that were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because they were anti-dilutive.

TCF FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

 

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations
 

OVERVIEW

 

TCF Financial Corporation (“TCF” or the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, is a financial holding company based in Wayzata, Minnesota.  Its principal subsidiaries, TCF National Bank and TCF National Bank Arizona (“TCF Bank”), are headquartered in South Dakota and Arizona, respectively.  TCF has 443 banking offices in Minnesota, Illinois, Michigan, Colorado, Wisconsin, Indiana, Arizona and South Dakota.

 

TCF provides convenient financial services through multiple channels in its primary banking markets.  TCF has developed products and services designed to meet the needs of all consumers.  The Company focuses on attracting and retaining customers through service and convenience, including branches that are open seven days a week and on most holidays, extensive full-service supermarket branches, automated teller machine (“ATM”) networks and telephone and internet banking.  TCF’s philosophy is to generate interest income, fees and other revenue growth through business lines that emphasize higher yielding assets and low or no interest-cost deposits.  The Company’s growth strategies include new branch expansion, acquisitions and the development of new products and services.  New products and services are designed to build on existing businesses and expand into complementary products and services through strategic initiatives.

 

TCF’s core businesses include retail and small business banking, commercial banking, consumer lending, leasing and equipment finance and inventory finance.  The retail banking business includes traditional and supermarket branches, campus banking, EXPRESS TELLER® ATMs and Visa® cards.

 

TCF’s lending strategy is to originate high credit quality, primarily secured, loans and leases. TCF’s largest core lending business is its consumer real estate loan operation, which offers fixed- and variable-rate loans and lines of credit secured by residential real estate properties.  Commercial loans are generally made on local properties or to local customers.  The leasing and equipment finance businesses consist of TCF Equipment Finance, Inc. (“TCF Equipment Finance”), a company that delivers equipment finance solutions to businesses in select markets and Winthrop Resources Corporation (“Winthrop Resources”) and Fidelity National Capital, Inc. (“FNCI”), companies that primarily lease technology and data processing equipment.  TCF’s leasing and equipment finance businesses have equipment installations in all 50 states and, to a limited extent, in foreign countries.  TCF Inventory Finance Inc. (“TCF Inventory Finance”) provides inventory financing to electronics and appliances and lawn and garden retailers in the United States and to a limited extent in Canada.

 

Net interest income, the difference between interest income earned on loans and leases, securities available for sale, investments and other interest-earning assets and interest paid on deposits and borrowings represented 56% of TCF’s total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2009.  Net interest income can change significantly from period to period based on general levels of interest rates, customer prepayment patterns, the mix of interest-earning assets and the mix of interest-bearing and non-interest bearing deposits and borrowings.  TCF manages the risk of changes in interest rates on its net interest income through an Asset/Liability Committee and through related interest-rate risk monitoring and management policies.

 

Non-interest income is a significant source of revenue for TCF and an important factor in TCF’s results of operations.  Key drivers of non-interest income are the number of deposit accounts and related transaction activity.  Recent legislative proposals would, if enacted, restrict or limit TCF’s ability to impose overdraft fees on retail checking accounts and interchange fees on debit card transactions and could have a significant adverse impact on TCF’s non-interest income.  The Federal Reserve is expected to issue a new regulation in November of 2009 that will regulate the imposition of overdraft fees and which could also have a significant adverse impact on TCF’s non-interest income.

 

21


 

TCF recently announced that it would introduce a new checking account product known as TCF Convenience CheckingSM in the first quarter of 2010 that would carry a monthly account deposit maintenance fee for accounts with a balance below designated levels and charge daily negative balance deposit maintenance fees instead of per item overdraft fees.  The account will also provide for a monthly maintenance fee.  TCF believes this new product includes a number of features that will be attractive to many customers and addresses many of the concerns of the Federal Reserve Board and various Congress communications relative to banking fees.  See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Consolidated Non-Interest Income” for additional information.

 

The Company’s Visa debit card program has grown significantly since its inception in 1996.  TCF is the 10th largest issuer of Visa Classic debit cards in the United States, based on sales volume for the three months ended June 30, 2009, as published by Visa.  TCF earns interchange revenue from customer card transactions paid primarily by merchants, not by TCF’s customers.  These products represent 22% of fee revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2009.  Visa has significant litigation against it regarding interchange pricing and there is a risk this revenue could be impacted by any settlement or adverse rulings in such litigation.  Interchange pricing has also been the subject of various pending legislative proposals that may seek to limit such fees.  See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Other Expense” for further discussion.

 

The following portions of the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations focus in more detail on the results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 and on information about TCF’s balance sheet, credit quality, liquidity, funding sources, capital and other matters.

 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

Performance Summary
 

TCF reported net income of $17.5 million and $67.6 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009, respectively, compared with $30.1 million and $101.3 million for the same 2008 periods.  Diluted earnings per common share was 14 cents and 39 cents for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009, respectively, compared with 24 cents and 81 cents for the same 2008 periods.  In the second quarter of 2009, the non-cash deemed dividend on the redemption of preferred stock reduced earnings per common share by 10 cents.

 

For the third quarter and first nine months of 2009, return on average assets was ..39% and .52%, respectively, compared with .73% and .83% for the same 2008 periods.  Return on average common equity was 6.03% for the third quarter and 7.13% for the first nine months of 2009, excluding the non-cash deemed preferred stock dividend, compared with 11.11% and 12.29% for the same 2008 periods.  The return on average common equity was 5.73% for the first nine months of 2009, including the impact of the non-cash deemed dividend on the redemption of preferred stock in the second quarter of 2009.

 

Operating Segment Results

 

See Note 12 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the financial results of TCF’s operating segments.

 

BANKING, consisting of retail banking, commercial banking, small business banking, consumer lending and treasury services, reported net income of $11.3 million and $49.2 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009, respectively, compared with $26 million and $83.3 million for the same 2008 periods.  Banking net interest income for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009 was $131.1 million and $379.2 million, respectively, compared with $132.8 million and $388.9 million for the same 2008 periods.

 

22


 

The banking provision for credit losses was $65.7 million and $151.5 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009, respectively, compared with $47.2 million and $132.6 million for the same 2008 periods.  The increase from the third quarter of 2008 was primarily due to increased consumer real estate and commercial net charge-offs and provisions for impaired consumer real estate loans.  See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Consolidated Provision for Credit Losses” for further discussion.

 

Banking non-interest income totaled $111.7 million for the third quarter of 2009, up 1.2% from $110.4 million for the same 2008 period primarily due to increases in fees and service charges, partially offset by a decrease in investment and insurance revenue.  Banking non-interest income totaled $336 million for the first nine months of 2009, up .7% from $333.7 million for the same 2008 period primarily due to a $14.2 million increase in gain on securities, partially offset by an $8.3 million gain in 2008 on the redemption of Visa shares and a $9 million decrease in investment and insurance revenues.

 

Banking non-interest expense for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009 was $162.6 million and $487.4 million, respectively, compared with $156.6 million and $460.4 million for the same 2008 periods primarily due to increased FDIC premiums and assessments, deposit account premium expenses and increased levels of foreclosed real estate activity.

 

LEASING AND EQUIPMENT FINANCE, an operating segment composed of TCF’s wholly-owned subsidiaries TCF Equipment Finance, Winthrop Resources and FNCI, provides a broad range of lease and equipment finance products. Leasing and equipment finance reported net income of $7.6 million and $22.7 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009, respectively, compared with $7.8 million and $21.5 million for the same 2008 periods.  Net interest income for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009 was $26.7 million and $77.9 million, respectively, compared with $19.6 million and $58.2 million for the same 2008 periods.

 

The provision for credit losses for this operating segment was $9.6 million and $28.7 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009, respectively, compared with $4.9 million and $12.4 million for the same 2008 periods primarily due to higher net charge-offs and the resulting portfolio reserve increases in the middle market and small ticket segments.

 

Leasing and equipment finance non-interest income for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009 totaled $15.2 million and $44.7 million, respectively, up from $13 million and $39.2 million for the same 2008 periods primarily due to an increase in sales-type lease revenue.  Leasing and equipment finance revenues may fluctuate from period to period based on customer driven factors not entirely within the control of TCF.  Leasing and equipment finance non-interest expense totaled $20.4 million and $58.6 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009, respectively, compared with $15.5 million and $49 million for the same 2008 periods primarily as a result of increased compensation from expansion and increased expense for repossessed assets.

 

OTHER, including the holding company, corporate functions and TCF Inventory Finance, reported a net loss of $1.7 million and $4.4 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009, respectively, compared with a net loss of $3.7 million and $3.6 million for the same 2008 periods. The decrease in net loss from the third quarter of 2008 was due in part to improved operating results of TCF Inventory Finance.

 

Consolidated Net Interest Income

 

Net interest income for the third quarter of 2009 totaled $161.5 million, up from $152.2 million for the third quarter of 2008 and $156.5 million from the second quarter of 2009.  Net interest income for the first nine months of 2009 totaled $463.4 million, up from $446.6 million for the same 2008 period.  The increase in net interest income from the third quarter of 2008 was primarily attributable to a $995 million, or 7.7%, increase in average loans and leases, partially offset by a five basis point decrease in net interest margin.  The increase in net interest income from the second quarter of 2009 was primarily due to a $119.6 million, or .9%, increase in average loans and leases and a 12 basis point increase in net interest margin.  The increase in net interest

income from the first nine months of 2008 was primarily due to a $1.1 billion, or 8.4%, increase in average loans and leases, partially offset by a 14 basis point decrease in net interest margin.

 

Net interest margin for the third quarter of 2009 was 3.92%, down from 3.97% for the third quarter of 2008 and up from 3.80% from the second quarter of 2009.  Net interest margin for the first nine months of 2009 was 3.80%, down from 3.94% for the first nine months of 2008.  The decrease in net interest margin from the third quarter of 2008 was primarily due to declines in yields on interest-earning assets, resulting from lower market interest rates, the effect of higher balances of non-accrual loans and leases and loan modifications and investments in lower yielding debentures, partially offset by declines in rates on average deposits.  The increase in net interest margin from the second quarter of 2009 was primarily due to reductions in rates paid on savings and certificates of deposit, partially offset by the effects of higher balances of non-accrual loans and leases and loan modifications and lower average yields on the leasing and equipment finance portfolio.

 

Achieving net interest income growth over time is primarily dependent on TCF’s ability to generate higher-yielding assets and lower-cost deposits.  While interest rates and consumer preferences continue to change over time, TCF is currently liability sensitive as measured by its interest rate gap (the difference between interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities maturing, repricing, or prepaying during the next twelve months).  Being liability sensitive generally means that TCF’s net interest income is subject to compression in rising interest rate environments.  However, since TCF is primarily deposit funded, the degree is controlled by TCF partially based on how its competitors price comparable products.  See “Consolidated Financial Condition Analysis — Deposits” and “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” for further discussion on TCF’s interest-rate risk position.

TCF recorded provision expense of $75.5 million and $181.1 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2009, compared with $52.1 million and $145 million in the same periods of 2008.  The composition of the provision for credit losses in the third quarter and first nine months of 2009 was driven by increased net charge-offs in the consumer real estate and leasing and equipment finance portfolios.  Higher consumer real estate provisions also include portfolio reserve rate increases due to higher expected charge-offs and higher reserves for impaired loans.

 

Net loan and lease charge-offs for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009 were $53.3 million, or 1.52% (annualized) of average loans and leases and $137.9 million, or 1.33% (annualized), respectively,  compared with $26.8 million, or .82% (annualized) and $67 million, or .70% (annualized), in the same periods of 2008.

 

Consumer real estate net charge-offs for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009 were $29.9 million and $75.2 million, respectively, compared with $18.3 million and $41.5 million for the same 2008 periods.  The higher consumer real estate net charge-offs were primarily due to continued weak residential real estate market conditions and high unemployment in TCF’s markets.  Commercial net charge-offs for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009 were $11.3 million and $37.4 million, respectively, compared with $2.8 million and $11.9 million in the same 2008 periods.  The increase in commercial real estate net charge-offs was primarily due to the depressed real estate conditions in Michigan and weak economic conditions.  Leasing and equipment finance net charge-offs for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009 were $9.4 million and $19.6 million, respectively, compared with $2.4 million and $7.6 million in the same 2008 periods.  The increase in leasing and equipment finance net charge-offs from the third quarter of 2008 was primarily due to higher net charge-offs in the middle market and small ticket segments due to the weak economic conditions and two large charge-offs totaling $3.7 million.

 

The provision for credit losses is calculated as part of the determination of the allowance for loan and lease losses.  The determination of the allowance for loan and lease losses and the related provision for credit losses is a critical accounting estimate which involves a number of factors such as historical trends in net charge-offs, delinquencies in the loan and lease portfolio, value of collateral, general economic conditions and management’s assessment of credit risk in the current loan and lease portfolio.  Also see “Consolidated Financial Condition Analysis — Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses.”

Consolidated Non-Interest Income

 

Non-interest income is a significant source of revenue for TCF and is an important factor in TCF’s results of operations.  Providing a wide range of retail banking services is an integral component of TCF’s business philosophy and a major strategy for generating additional non-interest income.  Total non-interest income was $128.1 million and $382.7 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009, respectively, compared with $123.5 million and $373.5 million for the same 2008 periods.

 

Fees and Service Charges

 

Fees and service charges totaled $77.4 million and $212 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009, respectively, compared with $71.8 million and $203.3 million for the same 2008 periods.  The increase from the third quarter of 2008 was primarily due to an increased number of checking accounts and related fee income.

 

Card Revenues

 

Card revenues totaled $26.4 million and $78 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009, respectively, compared with $26.2 million and $77.8 million for the same 2008 periods.  The flattening of card revenue was primarily due to lower average transaction amounts which is reflective of the current economic conditions, partially offset by the increased number of active cards.

ATM Revenue

 

For the third quarter and first nine months of 2009, ATM revenue was $7.9 million and $23.4 million, respectively, compared with $8.7 million and $25 million for the same 2008 periods.  The decline in ATM revenue was primarily due to fewer fee generating transactions by TCF customers.

 

Leasing and Equipment Finance Revenue

 

Leasing and equipment finance revenue totaled $15.2 million and $44.7 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009, respectively, compared with $13 million and $39.2 million for the same 2008 periods.  The increase in leasing and equipment finance revenue was primarily due to higher sales-type lease revenue, which varies from period to period based on customer driven events.

 

Other Income

 

Other non-interest income was $1.2 million and $2.5 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009, respectively, down $2.1 million and $9.5 million from the same 2008 periods.  The decrease from the third quarter of 2008 was primarily due to TCF no longer selling investment and insurance products in the branches, partially offset by servicing fees generated by TCF Inventory Finance.

 

28


 

Gains on Securities

 

There were no sales of securities during the third quarter of 2009, compared with gains on securities of $498 thousand on sales of $56.6 million of securities during the same period in 2008.  For the first nine months of 2009, gains on securities were $22.1 million on sales of $945.2 million of securities compared with the gains on securities of $7.9 million on sales of $1.2 billion of securities during the first nine months of 2008.  Gains on securities fluctuate from period to period based on market conditions and opportunities in the marketplace.

 

Consolidated Non-Interest Expense

 

Non-interest expense totaled $190.3 million for the third quarter of 2009, up $12.7 million, or 7.1%, from $177.6 million for the same 2008 period.  For the first nine months of 2009, non-interest expense totaled $561 million, up $46.4 million, or 9%, from $514.6 million for the same 2008 period.

 

Compensation and Employee Benefits

 

Compensation and employee benefits expense increased $5.8 million, or 6.8%, from the third quarter of 2008.  For the first nine months of 2009, compensation and employee benefits increased $9.7 million, or 3.8%, from the first nine months of 2008.  The increases were primarily due to increases in leasing and equipment finance and the inventory finance compensation costs as a result of expansion and growth and increased employee medical plan expenses.

 

Deposit Account Premiums

 

Deposit account premium expense totaled $7.5 million and $21.3 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009, respectively, compared with $7.3 million and $11.2 million for the same 2008 periods.  The increase in deposit account premium expense from the first nine months of 2008 is primarily due to successful marketing campaigns commencing in June of 2008 which have resulted in increased checking account production.

 

FDIC Premiums and Assessments

 

FDIC premiums and assessments expense totaled $5.1 million and $22.2 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009, respectively, compared with $426 thousand and $1.3 million for the same 2008 periods.  The increase is primarily due to higher insurance rates, deposit growth and the second quarter 2009 FDIC special assessment of $8.2 million.

 

Foreclosed Real Estate and Repossessed Assets, Net

 

Foreclosed real estate and repossessed asset expenses totaled $8 million and $18.5 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009, respectively, compared with $4.9 million and $12.4 million for the same 2008 periods primarily due to the increased number of foreclosed consumer real estate properties and  property valuation write-downs.

 

Other Expense

 

Other expense totaled $38.9 million and $111.3 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009, respectively, compared with $39.0 million and $108.7 million for the same 2008 periods.  The third quarter of 2009 included increased transaction related legal expenses and credit insurance expense on certain consumer real estate loans, while the third quarter of 2008 had a large amount of separation expense.  The $2.6 million increase from the first nine months of 2008 was primarily due to an increase in credit insurance, partially offset by a decrease in separation expense.

TCF is a member of Visa U.S.A. for issuance and processing of its card transactions.  As a member of Visa, TCF has an obligation to indemnify Visa U.S.A. under its bylaws and Visa under a retrospective responsibility plan, for contingent losses in connection with certain covered litigation (“the Visa indemnification”) disclosed in Visa’s public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) based on its membership proportion.  TCF is not a party to the lawsuits brought against Visa U.S.A. TCF’s membership proportion in Visa U.S.A. is .16234% at September 30, 2009.

 

As of September 30, 2009, TCF held 308,219 shares of Visa Inc. Class B shares with no recorded value that are generally restricted from sale, other than to other Class B shareholders, and are subject to dilution as a result of TCF’s indemnification obligation.

 

At September 30, 2009, TCF’s estimated remaining Visa contingent indemnification obligation was $3.1 million.  The remaining covered litigation against Visa is primarily with card retailers and merchants, mostly related to fees and interchange rates. TCF’s remaining indemnification obligation for Visa’s covered litigation is a highly judgmental estimate.  TCF must rely on disclosures made by Visa to the public about the covered litigation in making estimates of this contingent indemnification obligation.

 

Income Taxes

 

TCF recorded income tax expense of $6.5 million for the third quarter of 2009, or 27.4%, of income before income tax expense, compared with $15.9 million, or 34.5%, for the comparable 2008 period.  For the first nine months of 2009, income tax expense totaled $36.5 million, or 35.1%, of income before income tax expense, compared with $59.2 million, or 36.9%, for the same 2008 period.  The lower effective income tax rate for the third quarter of 2009, as compared with the third quarter of 2008, is primarily due to a $3 million decrease in income tax expense related to favorable developments in uncertain tax positions, partially offset by an increase in the annual effective income tax rate.  Excluding these items, the annual effective income tax rate for the third quarter of 2009 was 38.8%.

 

The determination of current and deferred income taxes is a critical accounting estimate which is based on complex analyses of many factors including interpretation of income tax laws, the evaluation of uncertain tax positions, differences between the tax and financial reporting bases of assets and liabilities (temporary differences), estimates of amounts due or owed such as the timing of reversal of temporary differences and current financial accounting standards.  Additionally, there can be no assurance that estimates and interpretations used in determining income tax liabilities may not be challenged by taxing authorities.  Actual results could differ significantly from the estimates and tax law interpretations used in determining the current and deferred income tax liabilities.

 

In addition, under generally accepted accounting principles, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recorded at the income tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the periods in which the deferred income tax assets or liabilities are expected to be realized.  If such rates change, deferred income tax assets and liabilities must be adjusted in the period of change through a charge or credit to the Consolidated Statements of Income. Also, if current period income tax rates change, the impact on the annual effective income tax rate is applied year-to-date in the period of enactment.

 

As discussed under Item 1A. Risk Factors, in TCF’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, TCF uses a REIT and related companies in the management of qualified real estate secured assets.  In the third quarter of 2009, TCF received notice from a state taxing authority challenging use of the REIT and related companies based on a recent court decision unrelated to TCF and unrelated to the laws in place for the years in the notice.  TCF has complied with the state income tax laws, believes it has strong defenses, intends to vigorously defend its position and believes the likelihood of loss is remote.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL CONDITION ANALYSIS

 

Securities Available for Sale

 

At September 30, 2009, the unrealized pre-tax gain on TCF’s securities available for sale portfolio was $40.3 million, compared with an unrealized pre-tax gain of $37.3 million at December 31, 2008.  TCF sold $945.2 million of mortgage-backed securities during the first nine months of 2009, compared with $1.2 billion of mortgage-backed securities in the same 2008 period.  TCF purchased $1.3 billion of securities available for sale during the first nine months of 2009, compared with $1.5 billion for the same 2008 period.  The purchases in the first nine months of 2009 partially replaced the sales of mortgage-backed securities and included $600.1 million of short-term Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac debentures with a one-time issuer call feature with call dates ranging from 1 to 2 years.  TCF’s securities available for sale consist primarily of U.S. Government sponsored enterprise mortgage-backed securities and debentures.

N.M. Not Meaningful.

 

At September 30, 2009, approximately 25% of TCF’s consumer and commercial loans consisted of variable-rate loans, compared with 27% at December 31, 2008.  Variable-rate consumer loans have interest rates tied to the prime rate, while variable-rate commercial loans have interest rates tied to either the prime rate or LIBOR.  At October 1, 2009, $1.7 billion, or 93%, of variable-rate consumer real estate loans were at their contractual interest rate floor, compared with $1.8 billion, or 98%, at January 1, 2009.  At October 1, 2009, $524 million, or 69%, of variable-rate commercial loans were at their contractual interest rate floor, compared with $305 million, or 33%, at January 1, 2009.  In addition, to the extent these loans have interest rate floors, an increase in interest rates may not result in a change in the interest rate on the variable-rate loans.  

 

31


 

Substantially all leasing and equipment finance loans have fixed interest rates, while inventory finance loans have variable interest rates.  Approximately 77% of the consumer real estate portfolio at September 30, 2009 consisted of closed-end loans.  TCF’s consumer real estate lines of credit require regular payments of interest and do not require regular payments of principal.  Consumer real estate outstanding lines of credit were $2.2 billion at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008.

 

TCF continues to expand its commercial lending activities, generally to borrowers located in its primary markets.  With a focus on secured lending, approximately 99% of TCF’s commercial real estate and commercial business loans at September 30, 2009, were secured either by real estate or other business assets.  At September 30, 2009, approximately 93% of TCF’s commercial real estate loans outstanding were secured by real estate located in its primary markets.

 

On September 25, 2009, Winthrop Resources Corporation acquired all of the outstanding shares of Fidelity National Capital, Inc. (“FNCI”), which provided technology financing and leasing solutions, for $20.4 million in cash.  Upon closing, Winthrop Resources Corporation settled approximately $40 million in outstanding borrowings of FNCI for a net cash outlay of $57.7 million.  Included in the acquisition were $200.2 million of direct financing leases, $57.9 million of operating leases and $215.4 million of non-recourse discounted lease rentals.

 

As the acquisition was completed near the end of the quarter, TCF’s consolidated statements of income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 were not materially impacted by the acquisition.

 

In the first quarter of 2009, TCF acquired a $277.4 million equipment finance portfolio at a discount which primarily represents credit valuation reserves that are netted against the balance of the portfolio and not contained within the allowance for loan and lease losses.  Additionally, in the third quarter of 2009, TCF acquired a $50 million equipment finance portfolio.

 

In the third quarter of 2009, TCF formed a joint venture with The Toro Company (“Toro”) called Red Iron Acceptance, LLC (“Red Iron”). Red Iron provides U.S. distributors and dealers and select Canadian distributors of the Toro and Exmark brands with reliable, cost-effective sources of financing. TCF and Toro will maintain a 55% and 45% ownership interest, respectively, in Red Iron.  As TCF has a controlling financial interest in Red Iron, its financial results are consolidated in TCF’s financial statements.  Toro’s interest is reported as a non-controlling interest within equity and qualifies as tier 1 regulatory capital.  In October 2009, Red Iron purchased $72.7 million of inventory finance loans from Toro.

 

The leasing and equipment finance backlog of approved transactions was $329.4 million at September 30, 2009, up from $328 million at December 31, 2008.

Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses

 

Credit risk is the risk of loss from customer default on a loan or lease.  TCF has a process to identify and manage its credit risk.  The process includes initial credit review and approval, periodic monitoring to measure compliance with credit agreements and internal credit policies, utilization of credit insurance on some high loan-to-value consumer real estate loans, monitoring changes in the risk ratings of loans and leases, identification of problem loans and leases and procedures for the collection of problem loans and leases.  The risk of loss is difficult to quantify and is subject to fluctuations in collateral values, general economic conditions and other factors.  The determination of the allowance for loan and lease losses is a critical accounting estimate which involves management’s judgment on a number of factors such as net charge-offs, delinquencies in the loan and lease portfolio, general economic conditions and management’s assessment of credit risk inherent in the current loan and lease portfolio.  The Company considers the allowance for loan and lease losses of $215.7 million appropriate to cover losses incurred in the loan and lease portfolios as of September 30, 2009.  Acquired loans and leases contain $13 million of credit loss reserves which are netted against the assets’ contractual balances. These reserves are the result of estimated cash flows on the acquisition date being lower than contractual cash flows.  TCF expects to be able to collect the estimated cash flows.  In the future, if TCF is unable to collect the expected cash flows or revises its expectation below the current level, an allowance for credit losses would be established on these portfolios.

 

No assurance can be given that TCF will not, in any particular period, sustain loan and lease losses that are sizable in relation to the amount reserved, or that subsequent evaluations of the loan and lease portfolio, in light of factors then prevailing, including economic conditions and TCF’s ongoing credit review process or regulatory requirements, will not require significant changes in the allowance for loan and lease losses.  Among other factors, protracted economic weakness, a continued decline in commercial or residential real estate values in TCF’s markets and continued financial stress on consumers would have an adverse impact on the current adequacy of the allowance for loan and lease losses by increasing credit risk and the risk of potential loss.

 

The next several pages include detailed information regarding TCF’s allowance for loan and lease losses, net charge-offs, non-performing assets, past due loans and leases, modified loans and potential problem loans and leases.  Included in this data are numerous portfolio ratios that must be carefully reviewed and related to the nature of the underlying loan and lease portfolios before appropriate conclusions can be reached regarding TCF or for purposes of making comparisons to other banks.  Most of TCF’s non-performing assets and past due loans are secured by real estate.  Given the nature of these assets and the related mortgage foreclosure, property sale and, if applicable, mortgage insurance claim processes, it can take 18 months or longer for a loan to migrate from initial delinquency to final disposition.  This resolution process generally takes much longer for loans secured by real estate than for unsecured loans or loans secured by other property primarily due to state real estate foreclosure laws.

TCF’s methodologies for determining and allocating the allowance for loan and lease losses focus on ongoing reviews of larger individual loans and leases, historical and expected future net charge-offs, delinquencies in the loan and lease portfolio, the level of impaired and non-performing assets, values of underlying loan and lease collateral, the assumed success rate of loan modifications, the overall risk characteristics of the portfolios, changes in character or size of the portfolios, geographic location, prevailing economic conditions and other relevant factors. The various factors used in the methodologies are reviewed on a periodic basis.  The total allowance for loan and lease losses is generally available to absorb losses from any segment of the portfolio.  The allocation of TCF’s allowance for loan and lease losses disclosed in the following table is subject to change based on the changes in criteria used to evaluate the allowance and is not necessarily indicative of the trend of future losses in any particular portfolio.

 

The allocation of TCF’s allowance for loan and lease losses and other credit reserves is as follows.

The increase in the consumer real estate allowance was primarily due to increased actual and estimated charge-offs due to continued weakness in residential real estate market conditions and higher levels of unemployment.  The level of commercial lending allowances is generally volatile due to reserves for specific loans based on individual facts and collateral values as loans migrate to potential problem loans or to non-accrual.  Charge-offs are taken against such specific reserves.  The commercial allowance levels decreased from year-end due to these factors.  The increase in the leasing and equipment finance allowance was primarily due to higher charge-offs and the resulting portfolio reserve rate increases, primarily the result of losses in construction and manufacturing equipment.

Consumer real estate net charge-offs for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009 increased $11.6 million and $33.7 million, respectively, compared with the same 2008 periods.  Commercial real estate net charge-offs for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009 increased $4.1 million and $21 million, respectively, compared with the same 2008 periods.  The increase in consumer real estate and commercial real estate net charge-offs were primarily due to the depressed residential real estate conditions, increased financial stress on consumers and weak economic conditions.  Leasing and equipment finance net charge-offs for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009 increased $7 million and $12.1 million, respectively, compared with the same 2008 periods.  The increases were primarily due to higher charge-offs in the middle market and small ticket segments due to deteriorating economic conditions and two large charge-offs totaling $3.7 million.

The increase in non-accrual loans and leases from December 31, 2008 was primarily due to increases in commercial and consumer real estate non-accrual loans and leases.  Consumer real estate properties owned increased from December 31, 2008 due to the addition of 526 new properties exceeding sales of 415 properties in the first nine months of 2009, as the average amount of time to sell properties has increased from 4.2 months to 4.4 months.  Consumer real estate loans are charged-off to their estimated realizable values upon entering non-accrual status.  Any necessary additional reserves are established for commercial, leasing and equipment finance and inventory finance loans and leases when reported as non-accrual.  Other real estate owned is recorded at the lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell the property.

 

At the time of acquisition, certain purchased receivables had experienced deterioration in credit quality since origination.  For these receivables, it is probable that TCF will not collect all contractual principal and interest payments.  These receivables were initially recorded at fair value and a non-accretable discount was established for the difference between the contractual cash flows and the expected cash flows determined at the time of acquisition.  These receivables are classified as accruing and interest income continues to be recognized unless expected losses exceed the non-accretable discount.

 

Repossessed and Returned Equipment

 

At September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, TCF had $20.7 million and $10.9 million, respectively, of repossessed and returned equipment held for sale in its leasing and equipment finance and inventory finance business.  The overall economic environment influences the level of repossessed and returned equipment, the demand for these types of used equipment in the marketplace and the fair value or ultimate sales prices at

disposition.  TCF periodically determines the fair value of this equipment and, if lower than its recorded basis, makes adjustments.

 

Impaired Loans

 

Impaired loans include non-accrual commercial real estate and commercial business loans, equipment finance loans, inventory finance loans and any restructured consumer real estate loans.  The non-accrual impaired loans are included in the previous disclosures of non-performing assets.  Impaired loans are summarized in the following table.

The increase in impaired loans from December 31, 2008 was primarily due to a $132.5 million increase in consumer real estate accruing restructured loans resulting from TCF’s changes in loan modification programs and an increase in commercial real estate non-accrual loans.  There were $155.5 million and $25.3 million of accruing restructured consumer real estate loans less than 90 days past due as of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.  See “Consolidated Financial Condition Analysis — Loan Modifications” for additional information on accruing restructured loans.  The allowance for loan and lease losses for impaired loans was $34.7 million at September 30, 2009, compared with $24.6 million at December 31, 2008.  The average balance of total impaired loans during the three months ended September 30, 2009 was $244.9 million, compared with $108.9 million during the three months ended December 31, 2008.

The increase in delinquencies is primarily due to continued financial stress on consumers and weak economic conditions.  Prolonged weakness in the overall economy may result in further increases in delinquent and non-accrual loans in future periods.

 

Loan Modifications

 

TCF may modify certain loans to retain customers or to maximize collection of loan balances.  TCF has maintained several programs designed to assist consumer real estate customers by extending payment dates or reducing interest rates.  All loan modifications are made on a case by case basis.  However, under these programs, TCF typically reduces interest rates charged for a period of 12 to 15 months.  Loan modification programs for consumer real estate borrowers implemented in the third quarter of 2009 have resulted in a significant increase in restructured loans.  Primarily these loans are classified as restructured loans and generally accrue interest although at lower rates than the original loan.

 

During the first nine months of 2009, TCF completed $590.7 million of loan modifications of consumer real estate loans to help customers avoid home foreclosure.  The majority of these modifications represent extended payments on which contractual interest is still charged.  A large number of modified loans were delinquent at the time of modification and in most cases these loans were no longer carried as delinquent following the modification.  The status of these loans at September 30, 2009 is based on the modified loan terms.

 

At September 30, 2009, $159.9 million of loans were accruing and were considered restructured loans, as the borrower was experiencing financial difficulties and concessions were granted that would not otherwise have been considered.

 

All loans considered to be restructured loans are impaired and an appropriate allowance for losses has been provided.  See “Consolidated Financial Condition Analysis — Impaired Loans” for additional information.

The following table summarizes TCF’s consumer real estate restructured loans that were 60 days or more past due and accruing.  At September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, there were no commercial restructured loans that were 60 days or more past due and accruing.

Due to the current economic environment including increasing unemployment, TCF expects restructured loans to continue to increase into 2010.

 

Potential Problem Loans and Leases

 

In addition to non-performing assets, there were $329.4 million of loans and leases at September 30, 2009, for which management has concerns regarding the ability of the borrowers to meet existing repayment terms, an increase of $144 million from December 31, 2008.  The increase in potential problem loans and leases is primarily due to an increase in commercial real estate loans that were downgraded due to the effect of overall deteriorating economic conditions.  Potential problem loans and leases are primarily classified for regulatory purposes as substandard or doubtful and reflect the distinct possibility, but not probability, that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan or lease agreement.  Although these loans and leases have been identified as potential problem loans and leases, they may never become delinquent, non-performing or impaired.  Additionally, these loans and leases are generally secured by commercial real estate or other assets, thus reducing the potential for loss should they become non-performing.  The current level of security is subject to the lien position and current collateral values.  Potential problem loans and leases are considered in the determination of the adequacy of the allowance for loan and lease losses.

 

Potential problem loans and leases are summarized as follows.

Deposits

 

Checking, savings and money market deposits are an important source of low-cost funds and fee income for TCF.   Deposits totaled $11.6 billion at September 30, 2009, an increase of $1.4 billion, or 13.5%, from December 31, 2008.  The increase was primarily due to strong growth in savings due to several initiatives involving products, pricing and marketing efforts, partially offset by declines in certificates of deposits resulting from reduced interest rates.  TCF’s weighted-average rate for deposits, including non-interest bearing deposits, was .90% at September 30, 2009, compared with 1.61% at December 31, 2008. The decrease in the weighted-average rate for deposits was due to pricing decisions made by management as a result of declining interest rates during the first nine months of 2009.

Borrowings and Liquidity

 

Borrowings totaled $4.5 billion at September 30, 2009, down $114.4 million from December 31, 2008.  The decrease was partially offset by the addition of $215.4 million of discounted lease rentals related to the acquisition of FNCI.  The weighted-average rate on borrowings was 4.59% at September 30, 2009, compared with 4.48% at December 31, 2008.  Historically, TCF has borrowed primarily from the FHLB, from institutional sources under repurchase agreements and from other sources.  At September 30, 2009, TCF had $2.1 billion in unused, secured borrowing capacity at the FHLB of Des Moines and $1.2 billion of active, unsecured federal funds purchased lines which are not contractually committed.

 

Also at September 30, 2009, TCF had $818 million in unused, secured borrowing capacity at the Federal Reserve Discount Window.  In October of 2009, TCF’s unused secured borrowing capacity at the Federal Reserve Discount Window decreased to $635 million due to a Federal Reserve methodology change.

 

See Note 5 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on TCF’s long-term borrowings.

Commitments to lend are agreements to lend to a customer provided there is no violation of any condition in the contract.  These commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee.  Since certain of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Collateral predominantly consists of residential and commercial real estate.

 

Campus marketing agreements consist of fixed or minimum obligations for exclusive marketing and naming rights with eight campuses.  TCF is obligated to make various annual payments for these rights in the form of royalties and scholarships through 2029.  TCF also has various renewal options, which may extend the terms of these agreements.  Campus marketing agreements are an important element of TCF’s campus banking strategy.

 

Standby letters of credit and guarantees on industrial revenue bonds are conditional commitments issued by TCF guaranteeing the performance of a customer to a third party.  These conditional commitments expire in various years through the year 2012.  The assets held as collateral primarily consist of commercial real estate mortgages.  Since the conditions under which TCF is required to fund these commitments may not materialize, the cash requirements are expected to be less than the total outstanding commitments.

 

Equity

 

Equity at September 30, 2009 was $1.2 billion, or 6.65% of total assets, compared with $1.5 billion, or 8.92% of total assets at December 31, 2008.  Tangible common equity at September 30, 2009 was $1 billion, or 5.81% of total tangible assets, compared with $993 million, or 5.98% at December 31, 2008.

 

On April 22, 2009, TCF redeemed all of the 361,172 outstanding shares of its Fixed-Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A, $.01 Par Value.  Upon redemption, the difference of $12 million between the preferred stock redemption amount and the recorded amount was charged to retained earnings as a non-cash deemed preferred stock dividend.  This non-cash deemed preferred stock dividend had no impact on total stockholders’ equity, but reduced year-to-date earnings per diluted common share by 10 cents year-to-date.  The warrant issued to the U.S. Treasury under the Capital Purchase Program has not been repurchased and TCF has requested the U.S. Treasury to liquidate it, as required by law.

 

On October 19, 2009, TCF declared a regular quarterly dividend of five cents per common share, payable on November 30, 2009 to stockholders of record at the close of business on October 30, 2009.

 

Recent Accounting Developments

 

On June 12, 2009, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 166, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets — an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140, which removes the concept of a qualifying special-purpose entity from GAAP, changes the requirements for derecognizing financial assets, and requires additional disclosures about a transferor’s continuing involvement in transferred financial assets. This Statement is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after November 15, 2009. Management is currently evaluating the impact of this Statement on TCF’s loan participations but does not expect it to be significant.  TCF has not used any special purpose entities to derecognize financial assets.

 

On June 12, 2009, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R), which eliminates exceptions to consolidating qualifying special purpose entities, contains new criteria for determining the primary beneficiary, and increases the frequency of required reassessments to determine whether a company is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity. This Statement clarifies, but does not significantly change, the characteristics that identify a variable interest entity. This Statement also contains a new requirement that any term, transaction, or arrangement that does not have a substantive effect on an entity’s status as a variable interest entity, a company’s power over a variable interest entity, or a company’s obligation to absorb losses or its right to receive benefits of a variable interest entity must be disregarded in applying the provisions of Interpretation 46(R). This Statement is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after November 15, 2009. The adoption of this Statement is not expected to impact TCF’s consolidated financial statements.

Forward-Looking Information
 

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q and other reports issued by the Company, including reports filed with the SEC, may contain “forward-looking” statements that deal with future results, plans or performance. In addition, TCF’s management may make such statements orally to the media, or to securities analysts, investors or others. Forward-looking statements deal with matters that do not relate strictly to historical facts. TCF’s future results may differ materially from historical performance and forward-looking statements about TCF’s expected financial results or other plans and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. These include, but are not limited to the following:

 

Adverse Economic or Business Conditions, Credit Risks.  Continued or deepening deterioration in general economic and banking industry conditions, or continued increases in unemployment in TCF’s primary banking markets; adverse economic, business and competitive developments such as shrinking interest margins, deposit outflows, or an inability to increase the number of deposit accounts; adverse changes in credit and other risks posed by TCF’s loan, lease, investment, and securities available for sale portfolios, including continuing declines in commercial or residential real estate values or changes in the allowance for loan and lease losses dictated by new market conditions or regulatory requirements.

 

Earnings/capital constraints, Liquidity Risks.  Limitations on TCF’s ability to pay dividends or to increase dividends in the future because of financial performance deterioration, regulatory restrictions or limitations; increased deposit insurance premiums, special assessments or other costs related to deteriorating conditions in the banking industry and the economic impact on banks of the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act, as amended (“EESA”); the impact of financial regulatory reform proposals, including possible additional capital requirements; adverse changes in securities markets directly or indirectly affecting TCF’s ability to sell assets or to fund its operations.

 

Legislative and Regulatory Requirements.  Consumer protection and supervisory requirements which could include the creation of a new consumer protection agency and limits on Federal preemption for state laws that could be applied to national banks; the imposition of requirements with an adverse impact relating to TCF’s lending, loan collection and other business activities as a result of the EESA,  or other legislative or regulatory developments such as mortgage foreclosure moratorium laws; reduction of interchange revenue from debit card transactions; impact of legislative, regulatory or other changes affecting customer account charges and fee income; changes to bankruptcy laws which would result in the loss of all or part of TCF’s security interest due to collateral value declines (so-called “cramdown” provisions);  adverse regulatory examinations and resulting enforcement actions, including those provided for under the Bank Secrecy Act; heightened regulatory practices, requirements or expectations, including, but not limited to, requirements related to the Bank Secrecy Act and anti-money laundering compliance activity.

 

Litigation Risks.  Results of litigation, including class action litigation concerning TCF’s lending or deposit activities or fees or charges, or employment practices, and possible increases in indemnification obligations for certain litigation against Visa U.S.A. (“covered litigation”) and potential reductions in card revenues resulting from covered litigation or other litigation against Visa.

 

Competitive Conditions; Counterparty Risk.  Reduced demand for financial services and loan and lease products; adverse developments affecting TCF’s supermarket banking relationships or any of the supermarket chains in which TCF maintains supermarket branches.

 

Accounting, Audit, Tax and Insurance Matters.  Changes in accounting standards or interpretations of existing standards; monetary, fiscal or tax policies of the federal or state governments, including adoption of state legislation that would increase state taxes; adverse state or Federal tax assessments or findings in tax audits; lack of or inadequate insurance coverage for claims against TCF.

 

Technological and Operational Matters.  Technological, computer related or operational difficulties or loss or theft of information and the possibility that deposit account losses (fraudulent checks, etc.) may increase.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
 

Market Risk — Interest-Rate Risk

 

TCF’s results of operations are dependent to a large degree on its net interest income and its ability to manage its interest-rate risk.  Although TCF manages other risks, such as credit risk, liquidity risk, operational and other risks, in the normal course of its business, the Company considers interest-rate risk to be its most significant market risk.  Since TCF does not hold a trading portfolio, the Company is not exposed to market risk from trading activities.  A mismatch between maturities, interest rate sensitivities and prepayment characteristics of assets and liabilities results in interest-rate risk.  TCF, like most financial institutions, has material interest-rate risk exposure to changes in both short-term and long-term interest rates as well as variable interest rate indices (e.g., the prime rate).

 

TCF’s Asset/Liability Committee (ALCO) manages TCF’s interest-rate risk based on interest rate expectations and other factors. The principal objective of TCF’s asset/liability management activities is to provide maximum levels of net interest income while maintaining acceptable levels of interest-rate risk and liquidity risk and facilitating the funding needs of the Company.

 

TCF utilizes net interest income simulation models to estimate the near-term effects (next twelve months) of changing interest rates on its net interest income. Net interest income simulation involves forecasting net interest income under a variety of scenarios, including the level of interest rates, the shape of the yield curve, and spreads between market interest rates. At September 30, 2009, net interest income is estimated to decrease by 2.4% compared with the base case scenario, over the next 12 months if short- and long-term interest rates were to sustain an immediate increase of 100 basis points.

 

Management exercises its best judgment in making assumptions regarding events that management can impact such as non-contractual deposit repricings and events outside management’s control such as customer behavior on loan and deposit activity, counter-party decisions on callable borrowings and callable agency debentures and the effect that competition has on both loan and deposit pricing. These assumptions are inherently uncertain and, as a result, net interest income simulation results will differ from actual results due to the timing, magnitude and frequency of interest rate changes, changes in market conditions, customer behavior and management strategies, among other factors.

 

In addition to the net interest income simulation model, management utilizes an interest rate gap measure (difference between interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities re-pricing within a given period). While the interest rate gap measurement has some limitations, including no assumptions regarding future asset or liability production and a static interest rate assumption (large quarterly changes may occur related to these items), the interest rate gap represents the net asset or liability sensitivity at a point in time. An interest rate gap measure could be significantly affected by external factors such as loan prepayments, early withdrawals of deposits, changes in the correlation of various interest-bearing instruments, competition, or an increase or decrease in interest rates.

 

TCF’s one-year interest rate gap was a negative $726.9 million, or 4.1% of total assets, at September 30, 2009, compared with a negative $631 million, or 3.8% of total assets, at December 31, 2008. A negative interest rate gap position exists when the amount of interest-bearing liabilities maturing or re-pricing exceeds the amount of interest-earning assets maturing or re-pricing, including assumed prepayments, within a particular time period.

 

43


 

TCF estimates that an immediate 25 basis point decrease in current mortgage loan interest rates would increase prepayments on the $7.2 billion of fixed-rate mortgage-backed securities and consumer real estate loans at September 30, 2009, by approximately $61 million, or 9%, in the first year. An increase in prepayments would decrease the estimated life of the portfolios and may adversely impact net interest income or net interest margin in the future if replacement assets are not purchased. Although prepayments on fixed-rate portfolios are currently at a relatively low level, TCF estimates that an immediate 100 basis point increase in current mortgage loan interest rates would reduce prepayments on the fixed-rate mortgage-backed securities and consumer real estate loans at September 30, 2009, by approximately $134 million, or 19.7%, in the first year. A slowing in prepayments would increase the estimated life of the portfolios and may also adversely impact net interest income or net interest margin in the future.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

The Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (Principal Executive Officer), the Company’s Chief Financial Officer (Principal Financial Officer) and its Controller and Assistant Treasurer (Principal Accounting Officer), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”).  Based upon that evaluation, management concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective, as of September 30, 2009.

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.  Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer (Principal Executive Officer), the Chief Financial Officer (Principal Financial Officer) and the Controller and Assistant Treasurer (Principal Accounting Officer), as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  Disclosure controls include internal controls that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that transactions are properly authorized, assets are safeguarded against unauthorized or improper use and that transactions are properly recorded and reported.

 

Any control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.  The design of a control system inherently has limitations, and the benefits of controls must be weighed against their costs.  Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls.  Therefore, no assessment of a cost-effective system of internal controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, will be detected.

From time to time, TCF is a party to legal proceedings arising out of its lending, leasing and deposit operations.  TCF is and expects to become engaged in a number of foreclosure proceedings and other collection actions as part of its lending and leasing collection activities.  TCF may also be subject to enforcement action by federal regulators, including the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Federal Reserve Board and the Comptroller of the Currency.  Such regulatory enforcement matters include, but not by way of limitation, enforcement of the Bank Secrecy Act and anti-money laundering regulatory compliance requirements.  From time to time, borrowers and other customers, or employees or former employees, have also brought actions against TCF, in some cases claiming substantial damages.  Financial services companies are subject to the risk of class action litigation, and TCF is subject to such actions brought against it from time to time.  Litigation is often unpredictable and the actual results of litigation cannot be determined with certainty.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors

 

Economic Conditions and Declines in Housing Prices and Real Estate Values

 

The United States, including TCF’s primary banking markets, has experienced weakened economic conditions and declines in housing prices and real estate values in general.  As discussed in Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors, and Part II, Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in TCF’s Annual Report on Form 10-K dated December 31, 2008 and in Part I, Item 2 of this Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2009, TCF’s loan portfolio contains significant amounts of loans secured by residential and commercial real estate.  TCF has experienced increases in non-performing assets, net charge-offs, restructured loans and provisions for credit losses as a result of continuing deterioration of the housing markets, increasing financial stress on consumers and weakened economic conditions.  TCF expects continued economic weakness into 2010.  This environment could lead to increased levels of non-performing assets, net charge-offs, restructured loans and provision for credit losses compared to previous periods.

 

Payment of Dividends

 

TCF’s future determination to pay dividends are at the discretion of our Board of Directors, subject to applicable regulatory restrictions and Delaware law, and will be dependent upon our results of operations, financial condition, contractual restrictions and other factors deemed relevant by our Board of Directors.

 

As a bank holding company, our ability to declare and pay dividends is subject to the guidelines of the Federal Reserve Board regarding capital adequacy and dividends.  As of September 30, 2009, we were considered “well-capitalized” under the capital standards that our banking regulators use to assess the capital adequacy of bank holding companies.  The Federal Reserve guidelines generally require us to review the effects of the cash payment of dividends on common stock and other Tier 1 capital instruments (i.e. perpetual preferred stock and trust preferred debt) on our financial condition.  The guidelines also require that we review our net income for the current and past four quarters, and the level of dividends on common stock and other Tier 1 capital instruments for those periods, as well as our projected rate of earnings retention.

 

The principal source of TCF Financial Corporation’s (parent company only) cash is dividends from its bank subsidiary, TCF National Bank.  TCF National Bank’s dividends are governed by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. TCF National Bank may not declare or pay a dividend to TCF in excess of 100% of its net retained profits for the current year combined with its net retained profits for the preceding two calendar years, without prior approval of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency.    TCF National Bank’s ability to make capital distributions in the future may require regulatory approval and may be restricted by its regulatory authorities.  TCF National Bank’s ability to make any such distributions will also depend on its earnings and ability to meet minimum regulatory capital requirements in effect during future periods.

Based on the economic conditions discussed above and the potential impact on TCF’s net income, the level at which TCF will be able to pay dividends in future periods under applicable regulatory guidelines is uncertain.
