For the year ended December 31, 2005, credit loss experience improved 53 basis points to 1.46% compared with 1.99% for 2004.

In addition, the total recovery rate improved 11% to 69% for the quarter compared to 62% a year ago.

The percentage of outstanding automobile contracts 30 days or more delinquent increased 15 basis points to 2.39% at December 31, 2005 compared with 2.24% a year ago. The provision for credit losses decreased to $56.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2005, compared with $59.0 million for the same period a year earlier due to lower chargeoff experience. For the year ended December 31, 2005, the provision for credit losses decreased to $188 million compared with $192 million for 2004. At December 31, 2005, the allowance for credit losses totaled $288 million or 2.4% of owned automobile contracts compared with $252 million or 2.6% at December 31, 2004. Automobile contract purchases totaled $1.6 billion for the fourth quarter of 2005, a 3% increase from the same period a year earlier. For the year ended December 31, 2005, automobile contract purchases totaled $7.5 billion, a 13% increase compared with $6.6 billion a year ago. As a result of higher contract originations, the Company's portfolio of managed automobile contracts grew 10% to $12.8 billion at December 31, 2005, up from $11.6 billion a year earlier. Total average interest earning assets increased $2.5 billion to $12.4 billion for the fourth quarter, up from $9.9 billion for the same period a year ago. As a result, net interest income grew 31% to $207 million for the fourth quarter compared with $159 million for the same period a year earlier. Net interest margin was 6.17% for the fourth quarter compared with 5.98% for the same period a year ago. For the year ended December 31, 2005, net interest income grew 28% to $745 million compared with $584 million for 2004. Net interest margin was 6.00% for the year ended December 31, 2005 compared with 5.88% a year earlier. Noninterest income decreased $13.9 million to $20.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2005 compared with $34.4 million for the same period a year earlier. For the year ended December 31, 2005, noninterest income decreased $69.9 million to $84.9 million compared with $155 million for 2004. Noninterest income was reduced by $15.1 million and $64.4 million of loan origination fees that were deferred during the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2005, respectively. Noninterest expense decreased to $62.0 million or 1.95% of average managed contracts for the fourth quarter compared with $62.7 million or 2.18% of average managed contracts for the same period a year earlier. For the year ended December 31, 2005, noninterest expense was $244 million or 1.99% of average managed contracts compared with $245 million or 2.21% of average managed contracts a year ago. Noninterest expense was reduced by $5.9 million and $26.6 million of direct origination costs that were deferred during the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2005, respectively. Historically, the Company performed analysis on the fees and direct costs related to its origination of automobile loans and elected not to defer and amortize such amounts as the net effect was not material to its financial statements in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 91 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 99. Due to continuing improvements in operating efficiencies and the higher amount of documentation fees earned, the difference between the amount of fees received and the direct costs incurred has gradually increased. The Company decided to defer and amortize these amounts to interest income prospectively beginning in the first quarter of 2005. Due to the pending merger with Wachovia, there will be no scheduled investor conference call to discuss the fourth quarter results. The merger is expected to close in the latter half of the first quarter of 2006, subject to the receipt of certain regulatory approvals.
