EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Report on Form 10-Q/A amends the Companys Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period
ended March 31, 2005, as initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 29,
2005. This restatement, which we announced on November 4, 2005, is a result of our correcting the
accounting for incentive servicing fees as mortgage servicing rights rather than derivative
instruments. See Note 2 Restatement of Financials for additional information regarding this
restatement and a summary of the impact of this restatement on our financial statements. Item 2
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations has been
amended to reflect the impact of the restatement. Item 4 Controls and Procedures has also been
amended to acknowledge the existence of a material weakness in our internal controls over financial
reporting. In light of the restatement, we have made other adjusting entries to change the period
in which the reversal of certain tax reserves were recorded from the first quarter of 2005 to the
proper periods in 2004. In addition, a reduction to a contingent liability in the first quarter of
2005 was removed to reflect settlement of the lawsuit involved in the third quarter of 2005. These
tax reserve and contingent liability adjustments were considered immaterial prior to the
restatement. The Form 10-Q has not been amended in any other respect except for certain minor
conforming changes and the provision of updated certifications and signatures.
The financial statements and related financial information for the affected periods contained
in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2005 should no longer be relied
upon.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Consolidation: Irwin Financial Corporation and its subsidiaries (the Corporation) provide
financial services throughout the United States and Canada. We are engaged in the mortgage banking,
commercial banking, home equity lending, and commercial finance lines of business. Our direct and
indirect subsidiaries include Irwin Mortgage Corporation, Irwin Union Bank and Trust Company, Irwin
Union Bank, F.S.B., Irwin Home Equity Corporation, and Irwin Commercial Finance Corporation.
Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of
management, the financial statements reflect all material adjustments necessary for a fair
presentation. The Corporation does not meet the criteria as primary beneficiary for our
wholly-owned trusts holding our company-obligated mandatorily redeemable preferred securities
established by Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 46 (FIN 46),
Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities. As a result, these trusts are not consolidated.
Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents Defined: For purposes of the statement of cash flows, we consider
cash and due from banks and federal funds sold to be cash equivalents.
Residual Interests: Residual interests are stated at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses
are included in earnings. To obtain fair value of residual interests, quoted market prices are used
if available. However, quotes are generally not available for residual interests, so we generally
estimate fair value based on the present value of expected cash flows using estimates of the key
assumptions prepayment speeds, credit losses, forward yield curves, and discount rates
commensurate with the risks involved that management believes market participants would use to
value similar assets. Adjustments to carrying values are recorded as trading gains or losses.
Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses: The allowance for loan and lease losses is an estimate
based on managements judgment applying the principles of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standard (SFAS) 5, Accounting for Contingencies, SFAS 114, Accounting by Creditors for
Impairment of a Loan, and SFAS 118, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan Income
Recognition and Disclosures. The allowance is maintained at a level we believe is adequate to
absorb probable losses inherent in the loan and lease portfolio. We perform an assessment of the
adequacy of the allowance on a quarterly basis.
Within the allowance, there are specific and expected loss components. The specific loss
component is assessed for loans we believe to be impaired in accordance with SFAS 114. We have
defined impairment as nonaccrual loans. For loans determined to be impaired, we measure the level
of impairment by comparing the loans carrying value to fair value using one of the following fair
value measurement techniques: present value of expected future cash flows, observable market price,
or fair value of the associated collateral. An allowance is established when the fair value implies
a value that is lower than the carrying value of that loan. In addition to establishing allowance
levels for specifically identified higher risk graded loans, management determines an allowance for
all other loans in the portfolio for which historical experience indicates that certain losses
exist. These loans are segregated by major product type, and in some instances, by aging, with an
estimated loss ratio applied against each product type and aging category. The loss ratio is
generally based upon historic loss experience for each loan type as adjusted for certain
environmental factors management believes to be relevant.
Servicing Assets: When we securitize or sell loans, we generally retain the right to service
the underlying loans sold. A portion of the cost basis of loans sold is allocated to this servicing
asset based on its fair value relative to the loans sold and the servicing asset combined. We use
the market prices under comparable servicing sale contracts, when available, or alternatively use
valuation models that calculate the present value of future cash flows to determine the fair value
of the servicing assets. In using this valuation method, we incorporate assumptions that we believe
market participants would use in estimating future net servicing income, which include estimates of
the cost of servicing per loan, the discount rate, float value, an inflation rate, ancillary income
per loan, prepayment speeds, and default rates. Servicing assets are amortized over the estimated
lives of the related loans in proportion to estimated net servicing income.
In determining servicing value impairment, the servicing portfolio is stratified into its
predominant risk characteristics, principally by interest rate and product type. Each stratum is
valued using market prices under comparable servicing sale contracts when
7
available, or alternatively, using the same model as was used originally to determine the fair
value at origination using current market assumptions. The calculated value is then compared with
the book value of each stratum to determine the required reserve for impairment. The impairment
reserve fluctuates as interest rates change and, therefore, no reasonable estimate can be made as
to future increases or declines in impaired reserve levels. We also compare actual cash collections
to projected cash collections and adjust our models as appropriate. In addition, we periodically
have independent valuations performed on the portfolio. Other than temporary impairment is recorded
to reflect our view that the originally recorded value of certain servicing rights and subsequent
impairment associated with those rights is unlikely to be recovered in market value. There is no
related direct impact on net income as this other than temporary impairment affects only balance
sheet accounts. However, a write-down will result in a reduction of amortization expense and
potentially reduced recovery of impairment in future periods.
Incentive Servicing Fees: For whole loan sales of certain home equity loans, in addition to
our normal servicing fee, we have the right to an incentive servicing fee (ISF) that will provide
cash payments to us if a pre-established return for the certificate holders and certain
structure-specific loan credit and servicing performance metrics are met. These ISF arrangements
are accounted for in accordance with SFAS 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial
Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities. When ISF agreements are entered into simultaneously
with the whole loan sales, the fair value of the ISFs is estimated and considered when determining
the initial gain or loss on sale. That allocated fair value of the ISF is periodically evaluated
for impairment and amortized in accordance with SFAS 140. Consistent with the treatment of all of
the Corporations servicing assets, ISFs are accounted for on a lower of cost or market (LOCOM)
basis. Therefore, if the fair value of the ISFs in subsequent periods exceeds cost basis, then
revenue is recognized as preestablished performance metrics are met and cash is due. When ISF
agreements are entered into subsequent to the whole loan sale, these assets are assigned a zero
value and revenue is recognized on a contingent basis as pre-established performance metrics are
met and cash is due.
Stock-Based Employee Compensation: We have three stock-based employee compensation plans. We
use the intrinsic value method to account for our plans under the recognition and measurement
principles of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related
interpretations. No stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in net income for any of
the periods presented, as all options granted under these plans had an exercise price equal to the
market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. The following table illustrates
the effect on net income and earnings per share if we had applied the fair value recognition
provisions of SFAS 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to stock-based employee
compensation:

Income Taxes: A consolidated tax return is filed for all eligible entities. In accordance with
SFAS 109, deferred income taxes are computed using the liability method, which establishes a
deferred tax asset or liability based on temporary differences between the tax basis of an asset or
liability and the basis recorded in the financial statements.
Recent Accounting Developments: In December 2004 the FASB issued a revised Statement 123 (SFAS
123R), Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation requiring public entities to measure the cost of
employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on grant date fair
value. The cost will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide
service in exchange for the award usually the vesting period. The effective date for this
statement has been established by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to be as of the
first annual period that begins after June 15, 2005. We are evaluating the impact of this new
pronouncement and expect it to be comparable to the pro forma effects of applying the original SFAS
123 as detailed above.
8
Reclassifications: Certain amounts in the 2004 consolidated financial statements have been
reclassified to conform to the 2005 presentation. These changes had no impact on previously
reported net income or shareholders equity.
Note 2 Restatement of Financials
Management and the Audit & Risk Management Committee (the Audit Committee) of the Board of
Directors of the Corporation determined in November, 2005 that the initial filings of our interim
financial statements included in the Corporations Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the periods
ended March 31, 2005 and June 30, 2005 and the annual financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 2004 should no longer be relied upon and should be restated.
For whole loan sales of certain home equity loans, we enter into contracts that provide for
incentive servicing fees (ISFs) that may be earned in addition to the fees received as servicer of
the loans sold. Under ISF contracts, we receive cash payments from buyers of certain of our home
equity loans if our servicing of the sold loans meets specific performance targets. Our historical
practice had been to account for ISFs as derivative instruments under Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 133 Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activity (SFAS
133). As part of our review and preparation of our financial statements for the quarter ended
September 30, 2005, and based on additional interpretive input, we determined that incentive
servicing fees should be treated in accordance with SFAS 140, Accounting for Transfers and
Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities. Therefore, for ISFs entered into
simultaneously with the whole loan sales, the fair value of the ISFs will be estimated and
considered when determining the initial gain or loss on sale. Consistent with the treatment of all
of the Corporations servicing assets, ISFs are accounted for on a lower of cost or market basis.
Therefore, if the fair value of the ISFs in subsequent periods exceeds cost basis, then revenue is
recognized as preestablished performance metrics are met and cash is due. When ISF contracts are
entered into subsequent to the whole loan sale, we will assign a zero value and record revenue only
when performance metrics have been met and cash is received. The cumulative impact of this error
was an overstatement of income (after tax) of $2.1 million during 2004 and $7.1 million for the
first two quarters of 2005. In addition to the restatement for ISF contracts, management has also
reduced certain salary accruals for the June 30, 2005 and March 31, 2005 periods associated with
incentive salary plans that are calculated based upon earnings. This filing is undertaken as part
of this restatement of ISFs.
In light of the restatement of financial statements for full year 2004 and the first and
second quarters of 2005, the Corporation has made other adjusting entries to record a reduction in
tax reserves in the proper periods in 2004 instead of the first quarter of 2005. These tax reserve
adjustments, which were considered immaterial prior to the restatement, had the effect of
increasing 2004 net income by $0.7 million and reducing 2005 net income by the same amount. In
addition, a $1.1 million (pre-tax) reduction of a contingent liability in the first quarter of 2005
was removed to reflect settlement of the lawsuit involved in the third quarter of 2005. The tables
below outline the impact of these adjustments on previously reported periods:

Note 5 Servicing Assets
Included on the consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004 are $387
million and $367 million, respectively, of capitalized servicing assets. These amounts relate to
the principal balances of mortgage loans serviced by us for investors. Changes in our capitalized
servicing assets, net of valuation allowance, are shown below:

(1) Other than temporary impairment was recorded to reflect our view that the originally recorded
value of certain servicing rights and subsequent impairment associated with those rights is
unlikely to be recovered in market value. There was no related direct impact on net income as this
other than temporary impairment affected only balance sheet accounts. However, the write-down will
result in a reduction of amortization expense and potentially reduced recovery of impairment in
future periods.

Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings are collateralized by loans and loans held for sale.
Drafts payable related to mortgage loan closings are related to mortgage closings that have
not been presented to the banks for payment. When presented for payment, these borrowings will be
funded internally or by borrowing from the lines of credit.
We also have lines of credit available to fund loan originations and operations with variable
rates ranging from 3.2% to 4.0% at March 31, 2005.
Note 7 Collateralized Debt
We pledge or sell loans structured as secured financings at our home equity and commercial
finance lines of business. Sale treatment is precluded on these transactions because we fail the
true-sale requirements of SFAS 140 as we maintain effective control over the loans and leases
securitized. This type of structure results in cash being received, debt being recorded, and the
establishment of an allowance for credit losses. The notes associated with these transactions are
collateralized by $0.5 billion in home equity loans, home equity lines of credit, and leases. The
principal and interest on these debt securities are paid using the cash flows from the underlying
loans and leases. Accordingly, the timing of the principal payments on these debt securities is
dependent on the payments received on the underlying collateral. The interest rates on the bonds
are at a floating rate.

For the Canadian asset backed notes, we are subject to compliance with certain financial
covenants set forth in this facility including, but not limited to consolidated tangible net worth,
return on average assets, nonperforming loans, loan loss reserve, Tier 1 leverage ratio, and
risk-based capital ratio. Due to our low level of net income in the first quarter, we requested and
obtained a waiver with respect to the return on average assets ratio covenant. As a result of this
waiver, we are in compliance with all applicable covenants as of March 31, 2005.

At March 31, 2005 and 2004, 943,792 and 4,000 shares, respectively, related to stock options,
were not included in the dilutive earnings per share calculation because they had exercise prices

Also at March 31, 2005, 2,607,040 shares and $678,136 of interest related to convertible
securities were not included in the dilutive earnings per share calculation because they had an
antidilutive effect on earnings per share.
Note 10 Industry Segment Information

Note 11 Commitments and Contingencies
Culpepper v. Inland Mortgage Corporation
Our indirect subsidiary, Irwin Mortgage Corporation (formerly Inland Mortgage Corporation), is
a defendant in a class action lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Northern District
of Alabama, filed in April 1996, alleging that Irwin Mortgage violated the federal Real Estate
Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA) relating to Irwin Mortgages payment of broker fees to mortgage
brokers. In June 2001, the Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit upheld the district courts
certification of a plaintiff class and the case was remanded for further proceedings in the federal
district court.
In November 2001, by order of the district court, the parties filed supplemental briefs
analyzing the impact of an October 18, 2001 policy statement issued by the Department of Housing
and Urban Development (HUD) that explicitly disagreed with the judicial interpretation of RESPA by
the Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit in its ruling upholding class certification in this case.
In response
to a motion from Irwin Mortgage, in March 2002, the district court granted Irwin Mortgages
motion to stay proceedings in this case until the 11th Circuit decided the three other RESPA cases
originally argued before it with this case.
13
The 11th Circuit subsequently decided all of the RESPA cases pending in that court. In one of
those cases, the 11th Circuit concluded that the trial court had abused its discretion in
certifying a class action under RESPA. Further, in that decision, the 11th Circuit expressly
recognized it was, in effect, overruling its previous decision upholding class certification in our
case. In March 2003, Irwin Mortgage filed a motion to decertify the class and the plaintiffs filed
a renewed motion for summary judgment. On October 2, 2003 the case was reassigned to another U.S.
district court judge. In response to an order from the court, the parties met and submitted a joint
status report at the end of October 2003. On June 14, 2004, at the courts request, the parties
engaged in mediation, which was unsuccessful. The court then reassigned this case to a new judge.
Pursuant to the courts order on March 17, 2005, Irwin Mortgage filed a motion for summary judgment
and updated its motion to decertify the class; the plaintiffs updated their motion for summary
judgment.
If the class is not decertified and the district court finds that Irwin Mortgage violated
RESPA, Irwin Mortgage could be liable for damages equal to three times the amount of that portion
of payments made to the mortgage brokers that is ruled unlawful. Based on notices sent by the
plaintiffs to date to potential class members and additional notices that might be sent in this
case, we believe the class is not likely to exceed 32,000 borrowers who meet the class
specifications.
Irwin Mortgage intends to defend this lawsuit vigorously and believes it has numerous defenses
to the alleged violations. Irwin Mortgage further believes that the 11th Circuits RESPA rulings in
the cases argued before it with this one provide grounds for reversal of the class certification in
this case. We have no assurance, however, that Irwin Mortgage will be successful in defeating class
certification or will ultimately prevail on the merits. We expect that an adverse outcome in this
case could result in substantial monetary damages that could be material to our financial position.
We have not established any reserves for this case and are unable at this stage of the litigation
to form a reasonable estimate of potential loss that we could suffer.
United States ex rel. Paranich v. Sorgnard et al.
In January 2001, we and Irwin Leasing Corporation (formerly Affiliated Capital Corp.), our
indirect subsidiary, and Irwin Equipment Finance Corporation, our direct subsidiary (together, the
Irwin companies), were served as defendants in an action filed in the United States District Court
for the Middle District of Pennsylvania. The suit alleges that a manufacturer/importer of certain
medical devices made misrepresentations to health care professionals and to government officials to
improperly obtain Medicare reimbursement for treatments using the devices, and that the Irwin
companies, through Affiliated Capitals financing activities, aided in making the alleged
misrepresentations. On August 10, 2001, the court dismissed Irwin Financial and Irwin Equipment
Finance as defendants in the suit. The Irwin companies prevailed on a motion for summary judgment
in the district court on October 8, 2003, and the plaintiff appealed. The Court of Appeals for the
3rd Circuit heard oral argument on plaintiffs appeal on September 27, 2004. On January 28, 2005,
the court of appeals affirmed the district courts dismissal of plaintiffs action. The period
during which the plaintiff can petition to the United States Supreme Court for writ of certiorari
expires on April 28, 2005.
Stamper v. A Home of Your Own
Our indirect subsidiary, Irwin Mortgage Corporation, is a defendant in a case filed in August
1998 in the Baltimore, Maryland, City Circuit Court. On January 25, 2002, a jury in this case
awarded the plaintiffs damages of $1.434 million jointly and severally against defendants,
including Irwin Mortgage. The nine plaintiff borrowers alleged that a home rehabilitation company
defrauded the plaintiffs by selling them defective homes at inflated prices and that Irwin
Mortgage, which provided the plaintiff borrowers mortgage loans on the home purchases, participated
in the fraud. Irwin Mortgage filed an appeal with the Maryland Court of Special Appeals and oral
argument was held on January 7, 2003. On February 27, 2004, the Court of Special Appeals ruled
against Irwin Mortgage and remanded the case to the trial court for a partial retrial on whether
the plaintiffs are entitled to punitive damages. Irwin Mortgage petitioned the Maryland Court of
Appeals for a writ of certiorari on April 12, 2004. The Court of Appeals granted Irwin Mortgages
petition and heard oral argument on November 4, 2004. On February 4, 2005, the Court of Appeals
affirmed in part and reversed in part the judgment of the Court of Special Appeals, remanding the
case as follows: to modify the judgment for all plaintiffs by striking the award of $145,000 per
plaintiff for non-economic damages; for further proceedings concerning one plaintiff as to
non-economic damages; and for a new trial as to punitive damages. We have reserved for this case
based upon SFAS 5 guidance.
[Note on Subsequent Event in Connection with This Amended Report: On September 14, 2005, the parties settled this case.
In light of the restatement of financials in this Form 10-Q/A for the period ended March 31, 2005,
we also made a change to reflect the liability associated with the settlement of this case.]
14
Silke v. Irwin Mortgage Corporation
In April 2003, our indirect subsidiary, Irwin Mortgage Corporation, was named as a defendant
in a class action lawsuit filed in the Marion County, Indiana, Superior Court. The complaint
alleges that Irwin Mortgage charged a document preparation fee in violation of Indiana law for
services performed by clerical personnel in completing legal documents related to mortgage loans.
Irwin Mortgage filed an answer on June 11, 2003 and a motion for summary judgment on October 27,
2003. On June 18, 2004, the court certified a plaintiff class consisting of Indiana borrowers who
were allegedly charged the fee by Irwin Mortgage any time after April 17, 1997. This date was later
clarified by stipulation of the parties to be April 14, 1997. In November 2004, the court heard
arguments on Irwin Mortgages motion for summary judgment and plaintiffs motion seeking to send
out class notice. We are unable at this time to form a reasonable estimate of the amount of
potential loss, if any, that Irwin Mortgage could suffer. We have not established any reserves for
this case.
Cohens v. Inland Mortgage Corporation
In October 2003, our indirect subsidiary, Irwin Mortgage Corporation (formerly Inland Mortgage
Corporation), was named as a defendant, along with others, in an action filed in the Supreme Court
of New York, County of Kings. The plaintiffs, a mother and two children, allege they were injured
from lead contamination while living in premises allegedly owned by the defendants. The suit seeks
approximately $41 million in damages and alleges negligence, breach of implied warranty of
habitability and fitness for intended use, loss of services and the cost of medical treatment.
Because the case is in the early stages of litigation, we are unable at this time to form a
reasonable estimate of the amount of potential loss, if any, that Irwin Mortgage could suffer. The
parties agreed to delay the filing of an answer in this case until April 29, 2005. We are
attempting to obtain a voluntary dismissal based on our belief that there is insufficient nexus
between the cause of the alleged injuries and Irwin Mortgage. We have not established any reserves
for this case.
Litigation in Connection with Loans Purchased from Community Bank of Northern Virginia
Our subsidiary, Irwin Union Bank and Trust Company, is a defendant in several actions in
connection with loans Irwin Union Bank purchased from Community Bank of Northern Virginia
(Community).
Hobson v. Irwin Union Bank and Trust Company was filed on July 30, 2004 in the United States
District Court for the Northern District of Alabama. As amended on August 30, 2004, the Hobson
complaint, seeks certification of both a plaintiffs and a defendants class, the plaintiffs class
to consist of all persons who obtained loans from Community and whose loans were purchased by Irwin
Union Bank. Hobson alleges that defendants violated the Truth-in-Lending Act (TILA), the Home
Ownership and Equity Protection Act (HOEPA), the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA) and
the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO). On October 12, 2004, Irwin filed a
motion to dismiss the Hobson claims as untimely filed and substantively defective. On March 4,
2005, the court held a hearing on Irwins motion to dismiss.
Kossler v. Community Bank of Northern Virginia was originally filed in July 2002 in the United
States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania. Irwin Union Bank and Trust was
added as a defendant in December 2004. The Kossler complaint seeks certification of a plaintiffs
class and seeks to void the mortgage loans as illegal contracts. Plaintiffs also seek recovery
against Irwin for alleged RESPA violations and for conversion.
The plaintiffs in Hobson and Kossler claim that Community was allegedly engaged in a lending
arrangement involving the use of its charter by certain third parties who charged high fees that
were not representative of the services rendered and not properly disclosed as to the amount or
recipient of the fees. The loans in question are allegedly high cost/high interest loans under
Section 32 of HOEPA. Plaintiffs also allege illegal kickbacks and fee splitting. In Hobson, the
plaintiffs allege that Irwin was aware of Communitys alleged arrangement when Irwin purchased the
loans and that Irwin participated in a RICO enterprise and conspiracy related to the loans. Because
Irwin bought the loans from Community, the Hobson plaintiffs are alleging that Irwin has assignee
liability under HOEPA.
If the Hobson and Kossler plaintiffs are successful in establishing a class and prevailing at
trial, possible RESPA remedies could include treble damages for each service for which there was an
unearned fee, kickback or overvalued service. Other possible damages in Hobson could include TILA
remedies, such as rescission, actual damages, statutory damages not to exceed the lesser of
$500,000 or 1% of the net worth of the creditor, and attorneys fees and costs; possible HOEPA
remedies could include the refunding of all closing costs, finance charges and fees paid by the
borrower; RICO remedies could include treble plaintiffs actually proved damages. In addition, the
Hobson plaintiffs are seeking unspecified punitive damages. Under TILA, HOEPA, RESPA and RICO,
statutory remedies include recovery of attorneys fees and costs. Other possible damages in Kossler
could include the refunding of all origination fees paid by the plaintiffs.
15
Irwin Union Bank and Trust Company is also a defendant, along with Community, in two
individual actions (Chatfield v. Irwin Union Bank and Trust Company, et al. and Ransom v. Irwin
Union Bank and Trust Company, et al.) filed on June 9, 2004 in the Circuit Court of Frederick
County, Maryland, involving mortgage loans Irwin Union Bank purchased from Community. On July 16,
2004, both of these lawsuits were removed to the United States District Court for the District of
Maryland. The complaints allege that the plaintiffs did not receive disclosures required under
HOEPA and TILA. The lawsuits also allege violations of Maryland law because the plaintiffs were
allegedly charged or contracted for a prepayment penalty fee. Irwin believes the plaintiffs
received the required disclosures and that Community, a Virginia-chartered bank, was permitted to
charge prepayment fees to Maryland borrowers. Under the loan purchase agreements between Irwin and
Community, Irwin has the right to demand repurchase of the mortgage loans and to seek
indemnification from Community for the claims in these lawsuits. On September 17, 2004, Irwin made
a demand for indemnification and a defense to Hobson, Chatfield and Ransom. Community denied this
request as premature.
On December 22, 2004, Irwin filed a motion with the Judicial Panel On Multidistrict Litigation
requesting a transfer of Hobson, Chatfield and Ransom to the Western District of Pennsylvania for
coordinated or consolidated proceedings with the Kossler action. On March 31, 2005, the Judicial
Panel On Multidistrict Litigation held a hearing on Irwins motion.
At this early stage, we are unable to form a reasonable estimate of the amount of potential
loss, if any, that Irwin could suffer. We have established a reserve for the Community litigation
based upon SFAS 5 and the advice of legal counsel.
Litigation Related to NorVergence, Inc.
Irwin Business Finance, our indirect subsidiary, is involved on a national basis in equipment
leasing finance and maintains a diverse portfolio of leases, including leases in the
telecommunications field. A portion of Irwins telecommunications portfolio involves leases of
equipment acquired from NorVergence, Inc., a New Jersey-based telecommunications company. After
assigning leases to Irwin and other lenders, NorVergence became a debtor in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy,
which is currently pending in the United States Bankruptcy Court in New Jersey. The sudden failure
of NorVergence left many of its customers without telecommunications service. These customers
became very angry when commitments made to them by NorVergence went unfulfilled.
Complaints by former NorVergence customers have led to investigations by the attorneys general
of several states. Irwin Business Finance has been named as a defendant in several lawsuits
connected with NorVergence. Exquisite Caterers, LLC et al. v. Popular Leasing et al. is a lawsuit
filed in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Monmouth County, and was amended to include Irwin
Business Finance and others on September 1, 2004. The Exquisite Caterers plaintiffs seek
certification of a class of persons who leased network computer equipment from NorVergence, whose
leases were assigned to defendants. The complaint alleges that NorVergence misrepresented the
services and equipment provided, that the lessees were defrauded and the lease agreements should
not be enforced. The action alleges violations of, among other things, the New Jersey Consumer
Fraud Act; the New Jersey Truth-in-Consumer Contract, Warranty, and Notice Act; the FTC Holder
Rule; the FTC Act; and breach of contract and implied warranties. The plaintiffs seek compensatory,
statutory and punitive damages, and injunctive relief, including rescission of the leases and
cessation of collections.
Irwin Business Finance was also named as a defendant, along with other lenders, in Delanco
Board of Education et al. v. IFC Credit Corporation, a lawsuit filed in the Superior Court of New
Jersey, Essex County, Chancery Division, in October 2004 in connection with leases assigned to the
lenders by NorVergence. (IFC Credit Corporation is not affiliated with Irwin Financial Corporation
or Irwin Business Finance.) The suit involved more than one thousand plaintiffs and alleged fraud,
misrepresentation and violations of the New Jersey Consumer Fraud law based on alleged conduct
similar to that in Exquisite Caterers, with the addition of a count under the New Jersey RICO
statute. Plaintiffs also alleged unjust enrichment and conversion and sought rescission of the
leases plus punitive and other damages. After failing in an attempt to obtain a temporary
injunction, the plaintiffs agreed to withdraw the complaint filed in the Superior Court and have
now commenced actions in the NorVergence bankruptcy proceeding, seeking similar relief.
Irwin Business Finance was also named as a defendant, along with other lenders, in Sterling
Asset & Equity Corp. et al. v. Preferred Capital, Inc. et al., an action filed in the United States
District Court for the Southern District of Florida in October 2004, which was voluntarily
dismissed in January 2005. The plaintiffs then filed a similar complaint in the Circuit Court of
the 11th Judicial Circuit, Miami-Dade County, Florida on January 14, 2005 seeking class
certification on behalf of Florida persons or entities who leased equipment from NorVergence and
whose agreement was assigned to one of the named lenders. The plaintiffs allege that NorVergence
engaged in false, misleading and deceptive sales and billing practices. The complaint alleges
violations of the Florida Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act, the FTC Holder Rule, and breach
of contract and warranties. Plaintiffs seek, among other relief, compensatory and punitive damages,
injunctive and/or declaratory relief prohibiting enforcement of the leases, rescission, return of
payments, interest, attorneys fees and costs.
16
In connection with investigations by various state attorneys general, Irwin Business Finance
and other lenders were asked to produce information about their relationships with NorVergence and
to refrain from enforcing NorVergence leases. Irwin Business Finance is pursuing discussions with
all states in which it has customers who executed agreements with NorVergence and has discontinued
collection activities while discussions are in progress. Although negotiations are ongoing in the
following states, Irwin believes it has reached agreements in principle with: the Attorney General
of California for recovery of 15% of outstanding balances on California leases as of July 15, 2004;
the Attorney General of Florida, entitling Irwin to lease payments through January 31, 2005; and
the Attorney General of New Jersey for recovery on a staggered scale based on the contract price,
with full forgiveness for gross a contract price of $17,999 or less, to 75% forgiveness for a gross
contract price of $30,000 or more. Irwin also is participating in negotiations with a multi-state
group of attorneys general, which appears to be progressing towards an agreement that would require
NorVergence lessees in their states to pay all amounts due through July 30, 2004, with the lenders,
including Irwin, entitled to 15% of the then-outstanding balance.
Prosecution of the suit filed on October 21, 2004, by the Attorney General of Florida against
twelve lenders, including Irwin Business Finance, in the Circuit Court of the Second Judicial
Circuit, Leon County, Florida (State of Florida v. Commerce Commercial Leasing, LLC et al.), has
been stayed by agreement of the parties while they discuss resolution of the concerns expressed by
the Florida Attorney General. The complaint alleges that the agreements assigned by NorVergence to
the lenders are unconscionable under the Florida Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act. The suit
seeks to prohibit collection activities by the lenders and asks for repayment of revenues,
rescission of the agreements, restitution, recovery of actual damages, and civil money penalties.
The individual lawsuit filed against Irwin Business Finance in September 2004 in the Superior
Court of Massachusetts has been put on hold pending discussions with the multi-state group of
attorneys general, of which the Attorney General of Massachusetts is a participant.
On April 5, 2005, Irwin Business Finance received an informal request for information and
documents from the Federal Trade Commission. Irwin is in the process of responding to this request.
We are unable to form a reasonable estimate of potential loss, if any, that Irwin Business
Finance could suffer as a result of ongoing litigation. Agreements with the various state attorneys
general, if reached, would tend to decrease damages awarded, if any, in NorVergence-related class
actions and other lawsuits, because lessees who accept such agreements would normally cease to be
among potential class action plaintiffs. We have not established reserves in connection with
NorVergence-related litigation.
We and our subsidiaries are from time to time engaged in various matters of litigation,
including the matters described above, other assertions of improper or fraudulent loan practices or
lending violations, and other matters, and we have a number of unresolved claims pending. In
addition, as part of the ordinary course of business, we and our subsidiaries are parties to
litigation involving claims to the ownership of funds in particular accounts, the collection of
delinquent accounts, challenges to security interests in collateral, and foreclosure interests,
that are incidental to our regular business activities. While the ultimate liability with respect
to these other litigation matters and claims cannot be determined at this time, we believe that
damages, if any, and other amounts relating to pending matters are not likely to be material to our
consolidated financial position or results of operations, except as described above. Reserves are
established for these various matters of litigation, when appropriate under SFAS 5, based in part
upon the advice of legal counsel.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
About Forward-looking Statements
You should read the following discussion in conjunction with our consolidated financial
statements, footnotes, and tables. This discussion and other sections of this report contain
forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and
Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. We intend such forward-looking statements to be
covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and are including this statement for purposes of invoking
these safe harbor provisions.
Forward-looking statements are based on managements expectations, estimates, projections, and
assumptions. These statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties that are difficult to
predict and are not guarantees of future performance. In addition, our past results of operations
do not necessarily indicate our future results. Words that convey our beliefs, expectations,
assumptions, estimates, forecasts, outlook and projections or similar language, or that indicate
events we believe could, would, should, may or will occur (or might not occur) or are likely (or
unlikely) to occur, and similar expressions, are intended to identify forward-looking statements.
These may include, among other things, statements and assumptions about:
|
|
|
our projected revenues, earnings or earnings per share, as well as managements
short-term and long-term performance goals; |
|
|
|
|
projected trends or potential changes in our asset quality, loan delinquencies, asset
valuations, capital ratios or financial performance measures; |
|
|
|
|
our plans and strategies, including the expected results or impact of implementing such plans and strategies; |
|
|
|
|
potential litigation developments and the anticipated impact of potential outcomes of pending legal matters; |
|
|
|
|
the anticipated effects on results of operations or financial condition from recent developments or events; and |
|
|
|
|
any other projections or expressions that are not historical facts. |
Actual future results may differ materially from what is projected due to a variety of factors,
including, but not limited to:
|
|
|
potential changes in and volatility of interest rates, which may affect consumer demand
for our products and the management and success of our interest rate risk management
strategies; |
|
|
|
|
staffing fluctuations in response to product demand; |
|
|
|
|
the relative profitability of our lending operations; |
|
|
|
|
the valuation and management of our residual, servicing and derivative portfolios,
including short-term swings in valuation of such portfolios due to quarter-end secondary
market interest rates, which are inherently volatile; |
|
|
|
|
borrowers refinancing opportunities, which may affect the prepayment assumptions used in
our valuation estimates and which may affect loan demand; |
|
|
|
|
unanticipated deterioration in the credit quality of our assets; |
|
|
|
|
unanticipated deterioration in the carrying value of our other assets, including securities; |
|
|
|
|
difficulties in delivering products to the secondary market as planned; |
|
|
|
|
difficulties in expanding our businesses or raising capital and other funding sources as needed; |
|
|
|
|
competition from other financial service providers for experienced managers as well as for customers; |
|
|
|
|
changes in the value of companies in which we invest; |
18
|
|
|
changes in variable compensation plans related to the performance and valuation of lines
of business where we tie compensation systems to line-of-business performance; |
|
|
|
|
legislative or regulatory changes, including changes in tax laws, changes in the
interpretation of regulatory capital rules, disclosure or consumer lending rules, or rules
affecting corporate governance, and the availability of resources to address these rules; |
|
|
|
|
changes in applicable accounting policies or principles or their application to our business; and |
|
|
|
|
governmental changes in monetary or fiscal policies. |
We undertake no obligation to update publicly any of these statements in light of future
events, except as required in subsequent reports we file with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC).
Strategy
Our strategy is to maintain a diverse and balanced revenue stream by focusing on niches in
financial services where we believe we can optimize the productivity of our capital and where our
experience and expertise can provide a competitive advantage. Our operational objectives are
premised on simultaneously achieving three goals: creditworthiness, profitability and growth. We
believe we must continually balance these goals in order to deliver long-term value to all of our
stakeholders. We have developed a four-part strategy to meet these goals:
|
|
|
Identify underserved niches. We focus on product or market niches in financial services
that we believe are underserved and where we believe customers are willing to pay a premium
for value-added services. We dont believe it is necessary to be the largest or leading
market share company in any of our product lines, but we do believe it is important that we
are viewed as a preferred provider in niche segments of those product offerings. |
|
|
|
|
Hire exceptional management with niche expertise. We enter niches only when we have
attracted senior managers who have proven track records in the niche for which they are
responsible. Each of our four lines of business has a separate management team that operates
as an independent business unit responsible for performance goals specific to that
particular line of business. Our structure allows the senior managers of each line of
business to focus their efforts on understanding their customers and meeting the needs of
the markets they serve. This structure also promotes accountability among managers of each
enterprise. The senior managers at each of our lines of business and at the parent company
have significant industry experience. We attempt to create a mix of short-term and long-term
incentives (including, in some instances, minority interests in the line of business) that
provide these managers with the incentive to achieve creditworthy, profitable growth over
the long term. |

Diversify capital and earnings risk. We diversify our revenues and allocate our capital
across complementary lines of business as a key part of our risk management. Our lines of
business are cyclical, but when combined in an appropriate mix, we believe they provide
sources of diversification and opportunities for growth in a variety of economic conditions.
For example, both the origination and servicing of residential mortgage loans are very
cyclical businesses, which normally respond in opposite ways to changes in interest rates
and show generally opposite effects in certain economic environments. We believe our
participation in these markets has been profitable over time due to our dedication to
participating in both segments of the mortgage banking business, rather than one or the
other. |
|
|
|
|
Reinvest in new opportunities. We reinvest on an ongoing basis in the development of new
and existing opportunities. As a result of our attention to long-term value creation, we
believe it is important at times to dampen short-term earnings growth by investing for
future return. We are biased toward seeking new growth through organic expansion of existing
lines of business. At times we will initiate a new line through a start-up, with highly
qualified managers we select to focus on a single line of business. Over the past ten years,
we have made only a few acquisitions. Those have typically not been in competitive bidding
situations. |
We believe our historical growth and profitability is the result of our endeavors to pursue
complementary consumer and commercial lending niches through our bank holding company structure,
our experienced management, our diverse product and geographic markets, and our willingness and
ability to align the compensation structure of each of our lines of business with the interests of
our stakeholders. Through various economic environments and cycles, we have had a relatively stable
revenue and earnings stream on a consolidated basis generated primarily through internal growth
rather than acquisitions.

Critical Accounting Policies
Accounting estimates are an integral part of our financial statements and are based upon our
current judgments. Certain accounting estimates are particularly sensitive because of their
significance to the financial statements and because of the possibility that future events
affecting them may differ from our current judgments or that our use of different assumptions could
result in materially different estimates. Our Annual Report of Form 10-K provides a description of
the critical accounting policies we apply to material financial statement items, all of which
require the use of accounting estimates and/or judgment. In addition, below is our policy for
incentive servicing fees. We have added this policy to our list of critical accounting policies due
to the nature of the policy (requires accounting estimates and/or judgment) and the financial
statement impact.
Incentive Servicing Fees
Incentive Servicing Fees: For whole loan sales of certain home equity loans, in addition to
our normal servicing fee, we have the right to an incentive servicing fee (ISF) that will provide
cash payments to us if a pre-established return for the certificate holders and certain
structure-specific loan credit and servicing performance metrics are met. These ISF arrangements
are accounted for in accordance with SFAS 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial
Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities. When ISF agreements are entered into simultaneously
with the whole loan sales, the fair value of the ISFs is estimated and considered when determining
the initial gain or loss on sale. That allocated fair value of the ISF is periodically evaluated
for impairment and amortized in accordance with SFAS 140. As long as the fair value is above the
lower of cost or market (LOCOM) cap, revenue is recognized on a cash-due basis. When ISF agreements
are entered into subsequent to the whole loan sale, these assets are assigned a zero value and
revenue is recognized on a contingent basis as pre-established performance metrics are met and cash
is due.

Consolidated Income Statement Analysis
Net Income
We recorded a net loss of $2.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005, down 113%
from net income of $19.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004. Net loss per share
(diluted) was $0.09 for the quarter ended March 31, 2005, down 114% from $0.66 per share for the
first quarter of 2004. Return on equity was (2.0)% for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and
18.0% for the same period in 2004.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2005 totaled $60 million, up 2% from
the first quarter 2004 net interest income of $59 million. Net interest margin for the three months
ended March 31, 2005 was 5.17% compared to 5.59% for the same period in 2004. The decline in
consolidated net interest margin related primarily to two segments due to product mix changes and
pricing pressures.

Provision for Loan and Lease Losses
The consolidated provision for loan and lease losses for the three months ended March 31, 2005
was $3 million, compared to $8 million for the same period in 2004. More information on this
subject is contained in the section on credit risk.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income during the first quarter of 2005 totaled $36 million, compared to $81
million for the first three months of 2004. The decrease in 2005 versus 2004 related primarily to
the mortgage banking line of business. Contributing to the decrease were $15 million of losses on
derivative instruments used to hedge our servicing assets in excess of the reversal of servicing
asset impairment,
lower gains from servicing sales, and lower gains from sales of loans. Details related to
these fluctuations are discussed later in the mortgage banking section of this document.

Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2005 totaled $97 million, compared
to $100 million for the same period in 2004.
Income Tax Provision
Income tax benefit for the three month ended March 31, 2005 totaled $1.6 million, compared to
tax provision of $11.8 million during the same period in 2004. Our effective tax rate declined to
39% during the first quarter of 2005.
Consolidated Balance Sheet Analysis
Total assets at March 31, 2005 were $5.6 billion, up 6% from December 31, 2004. Average assets
for the first quarter of 2005 were $5.4 billion, up 3% from the average assets for the year 2004.
The growth in the balance sheet primarily reflects increases at the commercial banking line of
business.

Loans Held For Sale
Loans held for sale totaled $1.1 billion at March 31, 2005, an increase from a balance of $0.9
billion at December 31, 2004. The increase occurred primarily at our mortgage and home equity
banking lines of business where mortgage loans held for sale increased by $0.1 billion at each
company from December 31, 2004.
Loans and Leases
Our commercial loans and leases are originated throughout the United States and Canada. At
March 31, 2005, 93% of our loan and lease portfolio was associated with our U.S. operations. We
also extend credit to consumers throughout the United States through mortgages, installment loans
and revolving credit arrangements. Loans by major category for the periods presented were as

The 2004 roll forward of allowance for loan and lease losses above includes the effect of the
transfer and sale of portfolio loans at our home equity lending line of business. We transferred
$355 million in loans to loans held for sale when the decisions were made to sell these loans from
the portfolio. These loans had an associated allowance of $21 million. The loans were transferred
with an allowance of $11 million to reduce their carrying value to fair market value. After the
transfers, the remaining $10 million of excess allowance was reversed through the provision for
loan and lease losses.
Deposits
Total deposits for the first quarter of 2005 averaged $3.5 billion compared to deposits for
the year 2004 that averaged $3.4 billion. Demand deposits for the first quarter of 2005 averaged
$967 million, a 4% decrease over the average balance for the year 2004. A significant portion of
demand deposits is related to deposits at Irwin Union Bank and Trust Company, which are associated
with escrow accounts held on loans in the servicing portfolio at the mortgage banking line of
business. During the first quarter of 2005, these escrow accounts decreased from $746 million at
December 31, 2004 to $681 million at March 31, 2005.
Irwin Union Bank and Trust utilizes institutional broker-sourced deposits as funding from time
to time to supplement deposits solicited through branches and other wholesale funding sources. At
March 31, 2005, institutional broker-sourced deposits totaled $260 million compared to a balance of
$279 million at December 31, 2004.
Short-Term Borrowings
Short-term borrowings during the first quarter of 2005 averaged $291 million compared to an
average of $308 million for the year 2004. Short-term borrowings declined to $225 million at March
31, 2005 compared to $237 million at December 31, 2004. The decrease in short-term borrowings at
the end of the first quarter relative to year-end reflects an increase in mortgage escrow deposits
(an alternative funding source for our mortgage warehouse) to $746 million, compared to $681
million at year-end.
Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings averaged $153 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2005,
with an average rate of 2.48%. The balance at March 31, 2005 was $22 million at an interest rate of
2.99%. The maximum outstanding during any month end during 2005 was $372 million.
Collateralized and Other Long-Term Debt
Collateralized debt totaled $516 million at March 31, 2005, compared to $547 million at
December 31, 2004. The decreased debt relates to paydowns on the secured borrowings during the
first quarter at our home equity lending line of business. The bulk of these borrowings have
resulted from securitization structures that result in loans remaining as assets and debt
borrowings being recorded on the balance sheet. The securitization debt represents match-term
funding for these loans and leases.
Other long-term debt totaled $270 million at March 31, 2005, unchanged from December 31, 2004.
We had obligations represented by subordinated debentures at March 31, 2005 totaling $240 million
with our wholly-owned trusts that were created for the purpose of issuing trust preferred
securities. The subordinated debentures were the sole assets of the trusts at March 31, 2005. In
accordance with FASB Interpretation No. 46 (FIN 46), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities
(revised December 2003), we deconsolidated the wholly-owned trusts that issued the trust preferred
securities. As a result, these securities are not consolidated on our balance sheet. Instead, the
subordinated debentures held by the trusts are disclosed on the balance sheet as other long-term
debt.

We are evaluating the potential benefits of calling the trust preferred securities issued by
IFC Capital Trust II, which become callable (under certain conditions) at par in September 2005.
Capital
Shareholders equity averaged $504 million during the first quarter of 2005, up 7% compared to
the average for the year 2004. Shareholders equity balance of $796 million at March 31, 2005
represented $17.40 per common share, compared to $17.61 at December 31, 2004. We paid $2.9 million
in dividends in the first quarter of 2005, reflecting an increase of $0.02 per share compared to a
year ago.

At March 31, 2005, our total risk-adjusted capital ratio was 15.0% exceeding our internal
minimum target of 11.0%. At December 31, 2004, our total risk-adjusted capital ratio was 15.9%. Our
ending equity to assets ratio at March 31, 2005 was 8.9% compared to 9.6% at December 31, 2004. Our
Tier 1 capital totaled $647 million as of March 31, 2005, or 12.3% of risk-weighted assets.
Cash Flow Analysis
Our cash and cash equivalents increased $57 million during the first quarter of 2005 compared
to an increase of $35 million during the same period in 2004. Cash flows from operating activities
resulted in a use of $211 million in cash and cash equivalents in the first quarter of 2005
compared to the first quarter of 2004 when our operations used $114 million in cash and cash
equivalents. Changes in loans held for sale impact cash flows from operations. In a period in which
loan production exceeds sales such as we had in the first quarter of 2005, operating cash flows
will decrease reflecting our investment in cash generating assets. In the first quarter of 2005,
our loans held for sale increased $163 million, thus increasing the cash used by operating
activities.
Earnings Outlook
We do not provide quantitative earnings guidance, as we do not believe it to be in the best
interest of our long-term stakeholders. However, as discussed before, our strategy is to seek
opportunities for credit-worthy, profitable growth by serving niche markets and balancing the
impact of changes in interest rates and economic conditions on our mortgage banking production with
investments in mortgage servicing and in our credit retained portfolios. These investments will
typically respond in an opposite and complementary manner. We expect a substantial proportion of
2005 earnings to come from net interest income derived from our credit portfolios in commercial
banking, home equity lending and commercial finance lines of business. We expect segment growth and
earnings to be more proportionate to our balance sheet exposures, rather than the disproportionate
contribution provided by the mortgage segment during 2002 and 2003. Currently, market conditions
for our mortgage banking segment are very difficult. Origination margins are
significantly below our long-term expectations and we are not seeing meaningful increases in
interest rates which would normally drive an increase in the value of our servicing portfolio as we
would typically expect when mortgage origination revenues are declining
Our results in the first quarter were well below our long-term expectations. Our current
expectation is that earnings in the remaining quarters of 2005 will return to amounts more
consistent with our long-term record. However, given results in the first quarter, we expect net
income for the full year of 2005 to be below those recorded in 2004. These estimates are based on
various
24
factors and current assumptions management believes are reasonable, including current
industry forecasts of a variety of economic and competitive factors. However, projections are
inherently uncertain, and our actual earnings may differ significantly from this estimate due to
uncertainties and risks related to our business such as fluctuations in interest rates and other
factors mentioned above in the About Forward-Looking Statements section. Over periods of normal
economic cycles we strive to meet or exceed our long-term targets of double-digit growth in
earnings per share and a return on equity above our cost of capital.
A meaningful amount of our earnings comes from activities and mark-to-market accounting
requirements tied directly or indirectly to capital market activities and include estimates of
future cash flows. As such, earnings are more difficult for us to predict over short periods of
time. For example, the valuation of our residual interests are affected by a variety of factors
including current and future credit quality, prepayment speeds, and discounts rates and our
mortgage servicing portfolio is impacted most directly by movements in the bond market. The impact
of short-term movements in interest rates on the valuation of our mortgage servicing rights is
mitigated by a combination of financial derivatives and changes in income from production of new
mortgages likely to be driven by those same movements in interest rates. However, the correlation
within short periods of time (such as a single quarter) between interest rate movements that impact
the reported value of our mortgage servicing rights at quarter end and the production effects of
those interest rate movements which may not be reflected until subsequent quarters can be low.
In addition, accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (GAAP) impose a
lower-of-cost-or-market (LOCOM) valuation cap on the value of our servicing asset, while we know of
no financial derivatives available in the secondary market with similarly asymmetric value change
characteristics. This anomaly in accounting for mortgage servicing assets makes it difficult at
times to construct economic hedges with the desired GAAP accounting outcome, although the economic
balance may still exist.
At the end of the first quarter, we had approximately $200 thousand of mortgage servicing
rights at risk to each one basis point change in interest rates. This amount changes as interest
rates and prepayment expectations change. For example, our exposure increases to approximately $1.5
million as interest rates decline by approximately 35 basis points from then current mortgage rates
at the end of the first quarter and declines toward zero as rates increase from that same
quarter-end rate. We typically counteract this risk with the use of derivatives with a similar
basis point value over a limited range of interest rates. It is not possible to construct a hedge
with similar basis point value over a wide range of interest rates. Therefore, if interest rates
move enough to warrant it, we will reposition our hedges to create a new range of rates with
similar basis point value to the MSRs. Repositioning hedges can be costly. Over time, this
derivative hedge has performed well in mitigating loss in value when interest rates have declined
and has been structured in such a manner so that we can recapture some of the increase in value of
servicing rights as rates rise, without losing an equal amount on our derivatives. Over the past
six months, however, basis risk in our servicing asset and the structuring of our derivative
position has caused our hedging position to be less effective than it has been historically. In the
first quarter we incurred derivative losses in excess of the reversal of our servicing asset
impairment allowance. Although derivative losses in the first quarter were less than the
mark-to-market increase in value of the servicing portfolio, our ability to recognize that
mark-to-market increase is limited under GAAP to the lower of cost or market on the servicing
asset.
Finally, as just noted, we are subject to basis risk in the management of our servicing
portfolio. While basis risk exhibits stability over longer periods of time, over shorter periods
there can be separation in the relative spreads of interest rates or indices used to value mortgage
servicing rights and the financial derivatives we use to hedge the change in value in mortgage
servicing rights. At times this basis risk benefits us and at other times it does not. It is
generally not possible to eliminate this basis risk. It is possible, therefore, that our balanced
revenue strategy may be successful as measured over several quarters or years, but may have
market-based variances if measured over short periods such as quarters.

Overview
In our mortgage banking line of business, we originate, purchase, sell and service
conventional and government agency-backed residential mortgage loans throughout the United States.
We also engage in the business of mortgage reinsurance. Because most of our mortgage originations
either are insured by an agency of the federal government, such as the Federal Housing
Administration (FHA) or the Veterans Administration (VA), or, in the case of conventional
mortgages, meet requirements for sale to Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA), the Federal
Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC) or the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB), we are able to remove
substantially all of the credit risk associated with these loans from our balance sheet. While we
securitize and sell mortgage loans to institutional and private investors, we may choose to retain
the servicing rights. Loan origination demand and servicing values react in opposite directions to
changes in interest rates, as explained below. We believe this balance between
mortgage loan originations and mortgage loan servicing values assists in managing the risk
from interest rate changes, which has helped stabilize our revenue stream over the long term.
26
Our channels for originating loans consist primarily of retail, wholesale, and correspondent
lending. The retail channel originates loans through retail branches and identifies potential
borrowers mainly through relationships maintained with housing intermediaries, such as realtors,
homebuilders and brokers. Our wholesale and correspondent divisions purchase loans from third party
sources. The wholesale division purchases primarily from mortgage loan brokers and issues loan
proceeds directly to the borrower. The correspondent lending division purchases closed mortgage
loans primarily from small mortgage banks and retail banks. We fund our mortgage loan originations
using internal funding sources and through credit facilities provided by third parties. Generally
within a 30-day period after funding, we sell our mortgage loan originations into the secondary
mortgage market by either direct loan sales or by securitization. Our secondary market sources
include government-sponsored mortgage entities, nationally-sponsored mortgage conduits, and
institutional and private investors.
We believe there is a balance between mortgage loan originations and mortgage loan servicing
that assists in managing the risk from interest rate changes and the impact of rate changes on each
part of the business. In rising interest rate environments, originations typically decline, while
the unrealized value of our mortgage servicing portfolio generally increases as prepayment
expectations decline. In declining interest rate environments, servicing values typically decrease
as prepayment expectations increase, while the economic value of our mortgage production franchise
generally increases due to the potential for greater mortgage loan originations. However, the
offsetting impact of changes in production income and servicing values may not always be recognized
in the same quarter under generally accepted accounting principles. This timing difference is due
to the application of lower-of-cost-or-market treatment under generally accepted accounting
principles to the mortgage servicing asset with no accounting equivalent for the production
franchise. As a result, we sometimes experience greater volatility in short-term results than is
apparent in longer-term measurements such as annual income.
Our strategy of balancing exposure to mortgage originations and mortgage servicing is
challenged in a period of flat or mildly declining interest rates (particularly in a period after
significant refinance activity has subsided) and when interest rates are modestly below the
aggregate LOCOM cap on the valuation of our servicing portfolio. These conditions have existed
since the summer of 2004. As such, our mortgage segment results are likely to continue to be
depressed until these conditions change.
We sell servicing rights periodically for many reasons, including income recognition, cash
flow, capital management and servicing portfolio management. Servicing rights sales occur at the
time the underlying loans are sold to an investor (in flow sales) or in pools from our seasoned
servicing portfolio (in bulk sales). In the first quarter, we chose to sell the servicing asset
associated with a relatively higher percentage of our current originations. We made this decision
due to a desire to lower our interest rate risk from the servicing portfolio as well as to mitigate
the growth of servicing assets as a percentage of our consolidated balance sheet. This differs from
our actions over the past several years of adding to the portfolio as rates reached historic lows.
While a substantial portion of mortgage banking revenues are derived from loan origination
activities, we have taken steps over the past year, more rapidly in the past six months, to reduce
the number of branches in our system that are not achieving our desired return targets and no
longer fit into our growth strategy. This, by definition, lowers our revenues and in many cases,
lowers the contribution to fixed or semi-fixed costs, but we believe it is the appropriate action
over the long-term as a response to rising interest rates. We have continued these office-closing
activities in the first quarter of 2005, principally in our retail channel that has historically
had the lowest margins in rising interest rate environments.
In addition, during the first quarter, we entered into two separate agreements to divest a
portion of our traditional retail, and all of our net branch and credit union lending operations.
The affected operations represent less than 20 percent of our total 2004 originations. Going
forward, we will concentrate on the growth of our most profitable channels in wholesale,
correspondent, and consumer direct lending while sharpening our focus in traditional retail lending
to serve low- to moderate-income homebuyers and emerging market customers. In total, we agreed to
sell 40 of our retail and retail/net branches, mostly in coastal states, and our entire credit
union lending operation. Exit costs associated with these sales totaled approximately $1 million
during the first quarter. We anticipate modest additional costs will be incurred in the second
quarter as these transactions are finalized. We anticipate that we will recognize some incremental
revenue over the next three years as part of an earn-out based remuneration for these branches.

Net Income
Net loss from mortgage banking for the three months ended March 31, 2005 was $10.3 million,
compared to net income of $9.7 million for the same period in 2004. This change from a profit to a
loss in 2005 reflects a significant decline in loan origination revenues and income from secondary
market sales of loans as well as mortgage servicing hedge losses in excess of servicing impairment
recovery of $15 million. During the same period in 2004, derivative gains exceeded servicing
impairment by $10 million. We currently anticipate that the mortgage segment will return to
profitability in the second quarter.
Net Revenue
Mortgage banking net revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 totaled $26 million compared
to $69 million for the same period in 2004. The following table sets forth certain information

Net interest income is generated from the interest earned on mortgage loans before they are
sold to investors, less the interest expense incurred on borrowings to fund the loans. Net interest
income for the first quarter in 2005 totaled $8 million compared to $9 million for the first
quarter in 2004. The decrease in net interest income in 2005 is a result of decreased margins on
sales in the secondary markets as well as decreased production resulting in a lower average balance
of mortgage loans held for sale on our balance sheet during the quarter.
Gain on sale of loans includes net revenues from three principal sources:
|
|
|
the valuation of newly-created mortgage servicing rights; |
|
|
|
|
net loan origination fees which are recognized when loans are pooled and sold into the secondary mortgage market; and, |
|
|
|
|
changes in fair value of forward contracts and interest rate lock commitments. |

Gain on sale of loans for the three months ended March 31, 2005 totaled $25 million, compared
to $43 million for the same period in 2004, a decrease of 42%. This decrease is attributable to
reduced secondary market margins as a result of lower industry production and reduced pricing power
on the part of originators.
Servicing fee income is recognized by collecting fees, which normally range between 25 and 44
basis points annually on the principal amount of the underlying mortgages. Servicing fee income
totaled $26 million for the first quarter of 2005, a decrease of 1% from first quarter of 2004,
primarily reflecting the decline in the servicing portfolio.
Amortization expense relates to mortgage servicing rights and is based on the proportion of
current net servicing cash flows to the total expected for the estimated lives of the underlying
loans. Amortization expense totaled $21 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005, compared
to $27 million during the first three months of 2004. The decrease in amortization expense relates
primarily to the decrease in the servicing portfolio and reduced prepayment speeds.
Impairment expense is recorded when the book value of the mortgage servicing rights exceeds
the fair value on a strata by strata basis. We determined fair value at March 31, 2005, through the
use of internal models, valuation comparisons to actual servicing sale proceeds, and independent
valuations. Impairment recovery totaled $32 million during the first quarter of 2005, compared to
expense of $48 million during the same period of 2004. The fluctuations in impairment
expense/recovery are attributable to changes in actual or expected prepayment speeds due to
interest rate changes. At March 31, 2005, the mortgage line of business held $6 billion notional
amount of interest rate swaptions to manage the risk associated with our servicing assets. Notional
amounts do not represent the amount at risk. The current risk management activities of the mortgage
bank related to servicing assets do not satisfy the criteria for hedge accounting under SFAS 133.
As a result, these derivatives are accounted for as other assets and other liabilities, and
changes in fair value are adjusted through earnings as derivative gains (losses), while the
underlying servicing asset is accounted for on a strata-by-strata basis at the lower of cost or
market. The impairment recovery in the first quarter of 2005 was more than offset by derivative
losses of $47 million. Derivative gains of $58 million were recorded during the first quarter of
2004. As a result, mortgage servicing hedge costs exceeded servicing impairment recovery by $15
million during the first quarter of 2005. During the same period in 2004, derivative gains exceeded
servicing impairment by $10 million.
The majority of the hedge losses occurred as interest rates rose rapidly toward the end of the
quarter. This increase in rates resulted in hedge losses which exceeded our servicing asset
impairment reversal which is capped under GAAP at the lower-of-cost-or-market (LOCOM). Absent this
LOCOM cap, by the end of the quarter the market value of our first mortgage servicing asset had
increased in value by approximately $26 million more than the LOCOM-capped carrying value. In
addition to the LOCOM-cap impact, during the first quarter of 2005 we continued to experience
compression between the rate underlying our servicing asset and the interest rate swap curve
underlying derivatives we use to hedge the fluctuation in value of our servicing rights. The
compression between these rates has rendered our servicing hedge significantly less effective than
we would want. As of December 31, 2004, the spread between these two rates was 0.74%. As of March
31, 2005, this spread between the mortgage and swap rates had compressed to 0.56%. At the beginning
of the second quarter, management re-structured its hedge profile to lengthen the duration of the
derivatives, reflecting the relatively better performance over recent periods of longer-term swaps
against mortgages.
Our mortgage banking business maintains the flexibility either to sell servicing for current
cash flow or to retain servicing for future cash flow through the retention of ongoing servicing
fees. Total servicing sales represented 109% of loan originations during the first quarter of 2005,
compared to 51% during the first quarter of 2004. The decision to sell or retain servicing is based
on current market conditions for servicing assets, loan origination levels and production expenses,
servicing portfolio management considerations, consolidated capital constraints and the general
level of risk tolerance of the mortgage banking line of business and the Corporation. We sold $1.3
billion of bulk servicing during the first quarter of 2005, generating a $1.2 million pre-tax gain.
We sold $1.1 billion of bulk servicing during the first quarter of 2004, generating a $6.5 million
pre-tax gain. Over the past few years, we have built our servicing portfolio in anticipation of
rising interest rates that would result in lower mortgage loan production. We sold servicing this
quarter to manage the size and composition of our investment in mortgage servicing assets. To
reduce our risk of future servicing asset impairment, we intend to make additional servicing sales
later in the year.

Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2005 totaled $42 million, a 19%
decrease over the same period in 2004. Salaries and employee benefits including incentive and
commission pay declined 19% during the first quarter of 2005 compared to the same period in 2004.
These fluctuations reflect efforts in place to reduce the size of our mortgage operation since the
refinance boom of 2001-2003 to align our costs with the reduced margins we are experiencing.

Run-off is primarily the reduction in principal balance of the servicing portfolio due to
regular principal payments made by mortgagees and early repayments of entire loans. |
|

|
For this calculation, deferred service release premiums on warehouse loans are excluded from
mortgage servicing assets and loans held for sale (i.e. warehouse loans) are excluded from the
servicing portfolio. |
We record originated mortgage servicing assets at allocated cost basis when the loans are sold
and record purchased servicing assets at fair value. Thereafter, servicing rights are accounted for
at the lower of their cost or fair value. We record a valuation allowance for any impairment on a
disaggregated basis. We determine fair value on a monthly basis based on a discounted cash flow
analysis. These cash flows are projected over the life of the servicing using prepayment, default,
discount rate and cost to service assumptions that we believe market participants would use to
value similar assets. We then assess these modeled assumptions for reasonableness through
independent third-party valuations, periodic servicing asset sales and through the use of industry
surveys. At
March 31, 2005, we estimated the fair value of these assets to be $362 million in the
aggregate, or $26 million greater than the
30
carrying value on the balance sheet, the difference
between carrying value and market value being the result of a cap under generally accepted
accounting principles at the lower of cost or market for these assets. At December 31, 2004, we
estimated the fair value of these assets to be $321 million in the aggregate, or $2 million greater
than the carrying value on the balance sheet.

Includes $338 million and $293 million of inter-company investments at March 31, 2005 and
December 31, 2004, respectively, that are eliminated in consolidation and are the result of excess
liquidity at the commercial banking line of business related to deposit growth in excess of its
asset deployment needs. The funds have been redeployed in earning assets at our other lines of
business. |
Overview
Our commercial banking line of business focuses on providing credit, cash management and
personal banking products to small businesses and business owners. We offer commercial banking
services through our banking subsidiaries, Irwin Union Bank and Trust, an Indiana state-chartered
commercial bank, and Irwin Union Bank, F.S.B., a federal savings bank.
Net Income
Commercial banking net income totaled $5.4 million during the first quarter of 2005,
relatively unchanged compared to the same period in 2004.

Net interest income was $25 million for the first quarter of 2005, an increase of 20% over
first quarter of 2004. The 2005 improvement in net interest income resulted primarily from an
increase in our commercial banking loan portfolio as a result of growth and expansion efforts. Net
interest margin is computed by dividing net interest income by average interest earning assets. Net
interest margin for the three months ended March 31, 2005 was 3.75%, compared to 3.79% for the same
period in 2004. The reduction in 2004 margin is due to deposit growth exceeding loan growth and
consequently greater than planned excess liquidity invested in lower yielding assets.
Provision for Loan and Lease Losses
Provision for loan and lease losses declined to $1.0 million during the first quarter of 2005,
compared to a provision of $1.2 million during the same period in 2004. The declining provision
relates to a combination of improving economic conditions, slower loan growth and improved overall
loan quality. See further discussion in the Credit Quality section later in the document.

Noninterest income during the first quarter of 2005 decreased 8% over 2004. This decrease was
due primarily to lower service charges on deposit accounts. The lower charges resulted from higher
earnings credits on commercial customer accounts due to increasing interest rates. Offsetting lower
service charges was an impairment recovery of $0.2 million in the first quarter of 2005 compared to
impairment expense of $0.1 million during the same period in 2004. The commercial banking line of
business has a first mortgage servicing portfolio totaling $455 million, principally a result of
mortgage loan production in its south-central Indiana markets. Servicing rights are carried on the
balance sheet at the lower of cost or market, estimated at March 31, 2005 to be $4 million.

Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2005 totaled $19 million, an increase
of 24% over the same period in 2004. The increase in operating expenses is primarily due to higher
personnel costs related to recent office expansions in Sacramento and Southern California.
Balance Sheet
Total assets for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 were $2.8 billion compared to $2.5 billion
for the year ended December 31, 2004. Average earning assets for the quarter ended March 31, 2005
averaged $2.7 billion compared to $2.4 billion for the year 2004. The most significant component of
the increase in 2005 was inter-company investments that are eliminated in consolidation and are the
result of excess liquidity at the commercial banking line of business related to deposit growth in
excess of its asset deployment needs. The funds have been redeployed in earning assets at our other
lines of business. Average core deposits for the first quarter of 2005 totaled $2.2 billion, an
increase of 1% over average core deposits in the fourth quarter 2004.
Credit Quality
The allowance for loan losses to total loans was unchanged from December 31, 2004.
Nonperforming assets to total assets decreased in 2005 over 2004. The decline in nonperforming
loans relate primarily to one commercial customer whose loan was transferred to other real estate
owned. Nonperforming loans are not significantly concentrated in any industry category. The

Overview
Our home equity lending line of business originates, purchases, sells and services a variety
of home equity lines of credit and fixed-rate home equity loan products nationwide. We market our
home equity products (generally using second mortgage liens) through a combination of direct mail,
brokers, the Internet, and correspondent channels. We target creditworthy homeowners who are active
credit users. Customers are underwritten using proprietary models based on several criteria,
including the customers previous use of credit.
We offer home equity loans with combined loan-to-value (CLTV) ratios of up to 125% of their
collateral value. Home equity loans are priced taking into account, among other factors, the credit
history of our customer, the disposable income of the borrower, and the relative loan-to-value
(LTV) ratio of the loan at origination. For example, all else being equal, those loans with
loan-to-value ratios greater than 100% (high LTV or HLTVs) are priced with higher coupons than home
equity loans with loan-to-value ratios less than
100% to compensate for increased expected losses through default. For the quarter ended March
31, 2005, HLTV home equity loans
34
constituted 41% of our loan originations and 46% of our managed
portfolio in this line of business. In an effort to manage portfolio concentration risk and to
comply with existing banking regulations, we have policies in place governing the size of our
investment in loans secured by real estate where the LTV is greater than 90%.
For most of our home equity product offerings, we offer customers the choice to accept an
early repayment fee in exchange for a lower interest rate. A typical early repayment option
provides for a fee equal to up to six months interest that is payable if the borrower chooses to
repay the loan during the first three to five years of its term. Approximately 77%, or $0.9
billion, of our home equity managed portfolio at March 31, 2005 was originated with early repayment
provisions, reflecting such customer choice.
Generally we either sell loans through whole loan sales or we fund these loans on balance
sheet through warehouse lines or secured, term financings. In addition to loan sales, from time to
time we have sold loans and will continue to consider the sale of certain assets such as residual
assets and mortgage servicing rights. We balance our loan portfolio growth objectives with cash
flow and profit targets, as well as a desire to manage our capital accounts. In addition, regulated
banks are prohibited from holding more than their total regulatory capital in certain mortgage
exposures where the underlying loan to value exceeds 90%. This limitation also factors into our
sale decisions. Our long-term expectation for whole loan sales are in the 75% range. We generally
retain the servicing rights for the loans we sell.

Net Income
Our home equity lending business recorded net income of $2.0 million during the three months
ended March 31, 2005, compared to net income for the same period in 2004 of $5.8 million.
Net Revenue
Net revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2005 totaled $33 million, compared to net
revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2004 of $35 million. The decrease in revenues is
primarily a result of lower trading gains resulting from marking our residual interests to fair
value.
During the first quarter of 2005, our home equity lending business produced $430 million of
home equity loans, compared to $307 million during the same period in 2004. Our home equity lending
business had $879 million of net loans and loans held for sale at March 31, 2005, compared to $818
million at December 31, 2004. Included in the loan balance at March 31, 2005 were $317 million of
collateralized loans as part of secured financings.

Net interest income decreased to $20 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005,
compared to $25 million for the same period in 2004. This line of business earns interest income on
loans held on the balance sheet and the accretion of the discount applied to its residual
interests. Accretion totaled $2 million during the first three months of 2005 versus $3 million for
the same period in 2004. The reduced accretion relates to the 33% reduction in our residual
interests at March 31, 2005 compared to the same period a year earlier. The decrease in the
non-accretion net interest income from $21 million in the first quarter of 2004 to $18 million in
the first quarter of 2005 is a result of the reduction of our on-balance sheet loan portfolio which
decreased from $936 million at March 31, 2004 to $879 million at March 31, 2005, reflecting
portfolio sales and runoff.
Provision for loan losses decreased to $0.4 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2005
compared to $5.9 million during the same period in 2004. The decreased provision relates to
improvements in the credit quality of the loan portfolio and a significant increase in net
recoveries in the current period.
We completed whole loan sales during the first quarter of 2005 of $322 million resulting in a
gain on sale of loans of $8 million, compared to $9 million in gain on sale of loans during the
same period in 2004. The decrease in gains in 2005 relates to lower margin
36
on those sales. The gain
on sales of loans relative to the principal balance of loans sold decreased during the first
quarter of 2005 compared to the same period in 2004 due to product mix and related loan yields.
We do not record a residual interest as a result of these whole loan sales as we do not retain
a credit loss interest after the sale. These are cash sales for which we receive a premium,
generally record a servicing asset, and recognize any points and fees at the time of sale. For
certain sales, we have the right to an incentive servicing fee (ISF) that will provide cash
payments to us if a pre-established return for the certificate holders and certain
structure-specific loan credit and servicing performance metrics are met. At March 31, 2005, we
were receiving incentive fees for two transactions that had met these performance metrics. During
the first quarter of 2005, we collected $0.3 million in cash from these ISFs, compared to $0.5
million during the year-earlier period.
These ISF arrangements are accounted for in accordance with SFAS 140, Accounting for
Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities. When ISF
agreements are entered into simultaneously with the whole loan sales, the fair value of the ISFs is
estimated and considered when determining the initial gain or loss on sale. That allocated fair
value of the ISF is periodically evaluated for impairment and amortized in accordance with SFAS
140. Consistent with the treatment of all of the Corporations servicing assets, ISFs are accounted
for on a lower of cost or market basis. Therefore if the fair value of the ISFs in subsequent
periods exceeds cost basis, then revenue is recognized as preestablished performance metrics are
met and cash is due.
When ISF agreements are entered into subsequent to the whole loan sale, these assets are
assigned a zero value and revenue is recognized on a contingent basis as pre-established
performance metrics are met and cash is due.
Loan servicing fees totaled $9 million during the first quarter of 2005 compared to $7 million
during the same period in 2004. The servicing portfolio underlying the mortgage servicing asset at
our home equity lending line of business totaled $2.4 billion and $1.7 billion at March 31, 2005
and 2004, respectively. The increase in loan servicing fees in 2005 relates to the increased size
of our servicing portfolio as well as increased early repayment fees that totaled $4 million during
the quarter ended March 31, 2005 compared to $2 million during the same period in 2004 on the
portfolio underlying the mortgage servicing asset.
Amortization and impairment of servicing assets includes amortization expenses and valuation
adjustments relating to the carrying value of servicing assets. Our home equity lending business
determines fair value of its servicing asset using discounted cash flows and assumptions as to
estimated future servicing income and cost that we believe market participants would use to value
similar assets. In addition, we periodically assess these modeled assumptions for reasonableness
through independent third-party valuations. At March 31, 2005, net servicing assets totaled $47
million, compared to a balance of $44 million at December 31, 2004. Servicing asset amortization
and impairment expense totaled $6 million during the first quarter of 2005, compared to $3 million
for the three months ended March 31, 2004.
Trading gains represent unrealized gains as a result of adjustments to the carrying values of
our residual interests. Trading gains totaled $0.5 million in the first quarter of 2005 compared to
gains of $4.6 million for the same period in 2004. Residual interests had a balance of $46 million
at March 31, 2005 and $52 million at December 31, 2004. The $46 million valuation at March 31, 2005
reflects $51 million of anticipated undiscounted cash flows of which $43 million represents
existing securitization overcollateralization and reserve funds, and the remaining $8 million
represents expected future net spread and prepayment penalties. Included in the valuation are
assumptions for estimated prepayments, expected losses, and discount rates that we believe market
participants would use to value similar assets. To the extent our expectations of future loss
rates, prepayment speeds and other factors change as we gather additional data over time, these
residual valuations may be subject to additional adjustments in the future. These adjustments could
have a material effect on our earnings. Our forward loss assumptions are reevaluated monthly and,
as such, our residual asset valuations will be adjusted monthly to reflect changes in actual and
expected loss rates in our portfolio.

Operating expenses were $29 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005, compared to $25
million for the same period in 2004. Operating expenses include compensation expense related to
long term compensation plans at the home equity lending line of business totaling $4 million and $3
million during the first quarter of 2005 and 2004, respectively. During the first quarter of 2005,
we completed our repurchase of the minority ownership interests in this line of business and as
such, the segment is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation and its subsidiary Bank.
Operating expenses also increased as a result of an increase in number of employees, increased
production and a migration to more variable incentive compensation plans.
Home Equity Servicing
Our home equity lending business continues to service a majority of the loans it has
securitized and sold. We earn a servicing fee of approximately 50 to 100 basis points of the
outstanding principal balance of the loans securitized. Generally accepted accounting principles
require us to book a servicing asset under both the SFAS 140 and the secured financing
structures. The total servicing portfolio was $2.9 billion at March 31, 2005 compared to $2.8
billion at December 31, 2004. For whole loans sold with servicing retained totaling $1.5 billion
and $1.4 billion at March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively, we capitalize servicing
fees including rights to future early repayment fees. The servicing asset at March 31, 2005 was $47
million up from $44 million at December 31, 2004 reflecting additional secondary market sales and
financings, net of amortization and run-off.
Our managed portfolio, representing that portion of the servicing portfolio on which we have
retained credit risk, is separated into two categories: $0.9 billion of loans originated, generally
since 2002, and held on balance sheet either as loans held for investment or loans held for sale,
and $0.3 billion of loans and lines of credit securitized for which we retained a residual
interest. Generally, these loans categorized as owned residual were originated prior to 2002 and
treated as sold under SFAS 140 and have a reserve methodology that reflects life of account loss
expectations; whereas our policy for on-balance sheet loans requires that we hold at a minimum,
sufficient reserves for potential losses inherent in the portfolio at the balance sheet date. Such
losses for on-balance sheet loans manifest themselves over a period which management believes
approximates twelve months. In both cases, we retain credit and interest rate risk.
In addition, where applicable, we have the opportunity to earn additional future servicing
incentive fees. Included below in the category Credit Risk Sold, Potential Incentive Servicing Fee
Retained Portfolio are $0.9 billion of loans at March 31, 2005 and $1.0 billion at December 31,
2004 for which we have the opportunity to earn an incentive servicing fee. In addition, we have
sold $0.6 billion of loans since late 2004 on which we anticipate we will receive incentive
servicing agreements during 2005. While the credit performance of these loans we have sold effect
the valuation of the incentive servicing fee, we do not have direct credit risk in these pools.

Overview
We established this line of business in 1999. In this segment, we provide small ticket, full
payout lease financing on a variety of small business equipment in the United States and Canada as
well as equipment and leasehold improvement financing for franchisees (mainly in the quick service
restaurant sector) in the United States.
We provide cost-competitive, service-oriented financing alternatives to small businesses
generally and to franchisees. We utilize direct and indirect sales forces to distribute our
products. In the small ticket lease channel our sales efforts focus on providing lease solutions
for vendors and manufacturers. The majority of our leases are full payout (no residual),
small-ticket assets secured by commercial equipment. We finance a variety of commercial, light
industrial and office equipment types and try to limit the concentrations in our loan and lease
portfolios. Within the franchise channel, the majority of our contracts are full payout loans with
higher transaction sizes than in our small-ticket channel. The franchise channel may also finance
real estate for select franchise systems.
Net Income
During the three months ended March 31, 2005, the commercial finance line of business had net
income of $0.7 million, compared to a loss of $0.3 million in the same period in the prior year.
The 2005 improvement in earnings is attributable primarily to a lower effective tax rate. Net
income last year was negatively affected by a one-time income tax charge of $1.7 million during the
first quarter
reflecting the cumulative impact of tax liabilities acquired, but not recorded on the books of
the company at the time of our purchase of our Canadian operations from a now bankrupt seller.

Net interest income was $8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2005, an increase of 13%
over 2004. The improvement in net interest income resulted primarily from an increase in our
commercial finance portfolio. The total loan and lease portfolio has increased to $644 million at
March 31, 2005, an increase of 3% over year-end 2004 and an increase of 34% over March 31, 2004.
This line of business originated $83 million in loans and leases during the first quarter of 2005,
compared to $72 million during the same period of 2004.
Net interest margin is computed by dividing net interest income by average interest earning
assets. Net interest margin for the first quarter of 2005 was 4.85%, compared to 5.74% in 2004 for
the same period. The decrease in 2005 margin is due primarily to changes in product mix and changes
in yields.
Provision for Loan and Lease Losses
The provision for loan and lease losses increased to $2.1 million during the first three
months in 2005 compared to $1.2 million for the same period in 2004. The increased provisioning
levels relate primarily to year-over-year growth in the commercial finance portfolio.

Noninterest income during the three months ended March 31, 2005 increased $1.5 million over
the same period in 2004. Included in noninterest income were gains from sales of leases and whole
loans that totaled $0.7 million in the first quarter of 2005 compared to $0.4 million during the
same period in 2004. Also included in noninterest income during first quarter 2005 and 2004 was
$0.1 million and $0.9 million of interest rate derivative losses in our Canadian operation related
to asset-liability mismatches in our funding of that operation.

Operating expenses during the first quarter in 2005 totaled $6.2 million, an increase of 47%
over the same period in 2004. The increased operating expenses relate to the continued growth in
this business since its inception in 1999, including variable compensation costs related to higher
production levels, infrastructure and staffing development, and incentive compensation costs
related to the achievement of profitability. The increase in other operating expenses is primarily
attributable to the resolution of a contract dispute and related legal fees involving our franchise
channel during the first quarter of 2005.
Credit Quality
The commercial finance line of business had nonperforming loans and leases at March 31, 2005
of $4.1 million compared to $3.9 million as of December 31, 2004. Net charge-offs recorded by this
line of business totaled $1.4 million for the first quarter of 2005 compared to $1.3 million for
the first quarter of 2004. Our allowance for loan and lease losses at March 31, 2005 totaled $10.2
million, representing 1.58% of loans and leases, compared to a balance at December 31, 2004 of $9.6
million, representing 1.54% of loans and leases.

Parent and Other
Results at the parent company and other businesses totaled a net loss of $0.5 million for the
three months ended March 31, 2005, compared to a loss of $0.8 million during the same period in
2004.
Results at the parent company include operating expenses in excess of management fees charged
to the lines of business and interest income earned on intracompany loans. Also included in parent
and other expense were compensation charges related to key employee retention initiatives at the
home equity lending line of business totaling negative $0.5 million for the quarter ended March 31,
2005. We recognized $1.2 million in expense with respect to this initiative during the first
quarter of 2004. Also included in parent
41
company operating results are allocations to our
subsidiaries of interest expense related to our interest-bearing capital obligations. During the
quarter ended March 31, 2005, we allocated $4.4 million of these expenses to our subsidiaries,
compared to $3.3 million during the first quarter of 2004.
Each subsidiary pays taxes to us at the statutory rate. Subsidiaries also pay fees to us to
cover direct and indirect services. In addition, certain services are provided from one subsidiary
to another. Intercompany income and expenses are calculated on an arms-length, external market
basis and are eliminated in consolidation.
Risk Management
We are engaged in businesses that involve the assumption of financial risks including:
|
|
|
Credit risk |
|
|
|
|
Liquidity risk |
|
|
|
|
Interest rate risk |
|
|
|
|
Operational risk |
Each line of business that assumes financial risk uses a formal process to manage this risk.
In all cases, the objectives are to ensure that risk is contained within prudent levels and that we
are adequately compensated for the level of risk assumed.
Our Chairman, Executive Vice President, Senior Vice Presidents (including the Chief Financial
Officer), and Chief Risk Officer meet on a regularly-scheduled basis (or more frequently as
appropriate) as an Enterprise-wide Risk Management Committee (ERMC), reporting to the Board of
Directors Audit and Risk Management Committee.
Each of our principal risks is managed at the line of business level, with oversight and, when
appropriate, standardization provided by the ERMC and its subcommittees. The ERMC and its
subcommittees oversee all aspects of our financial, credit, and operational risks. The ERMC
provides senior-level review and enhancement of line manager risk processes and oversight of our
risk reporting, surveillance and model parameter changes.
Credit Risk
The assumption of credit risk is a key source of earnings for the home equity lending,
commercial banking and commercial finance lines of business. The mortgage banking line of business
assumes limited credit risk as its mortgages typically are insured and are sold within a short
period of time after origination.
The credit risk in the loan portfolios of the home equity lending, commercial finance and
commercial banking lines of business has the most potential for a significant effect on our
consolidated financial performance. These lines of business each have a Chief Credit Officer with
expertise specific to the product line and manage credit risk through various combinations of the
use of lending policies, credit analysis and approval procedures, periodic loan reviews, servicing
activities, and/or personal contact with borrowers. Commercial loans over a certain size, depending
on the loan type and structure, are reviewed by a loan committee prior to approval. We perform
independent loan review across the Corporation through a function that reports directly to the
Audit and Risk Management Committee.
The allowance for loan and lease losses is an estimate based on our judgment applying the
principles of SFAS 5, Accounting for Contingencies, SFAS 114, Accounting by Creditors for
Impairment of a Loan, and SFAS 118, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan Income
Recognition and Disclosures. The allowance is maintained at a level we believe is adequate to
absorb probable losses inherent in the loan and lease portfolio. We perform an assessment of the
adequacy of the allowance at the segment level no less frequently than on a quarterly basis and
through review by a subcommittee of the ERMC.
Within the allowance, there are specific and expected loss components. The specific loss
component is based on a regular analysis of all loans over a fixed-dollar amount where the internal
credit rating (for commercial loans) or loan delinquency status (for consumer loans) is at or below
a predetermined classification. From this analysis we determine the loans that we believe to be
impaired in
42
accordance with SFAS 114. Management has defined impaired as nonaccrual loans. For
loans determined to be impaired, we measure the level of impairment by comparing the loans
carrying value to fair value using one of the following fair value measurement techniques: present
value of expected future cash flows, observable market price, or fair value of the associated
collateral. An allowance is established when the fair value of the loan implies a value that is
lower than its carrying value. In addition to establishing allowance levels for specifically
identified higher risk graded or high delinquency loans, management determines an allowance for all
other loans in the portfolio for which historical or projected experience indicates that certain
losses will occur. These loans are segregated by major product type, and in some instances, by
aging, with an estimated loss ratio or migration pattern applied against each product type and
aging category. For portfolios that are too new to have adequate historical experience on which to
base a loss estimate, we use estimates derived from industry experience and managements judgment.
The loss ratio or migration patterns are generally based upon historic loss experience or historic
rate migration behaviors, respectively, for each loan type adjusted for certain environmental
factors management believes to be relevant.
Net charge-offs for the three months ended March 31, 2005 were $2 million, or 0.2% of average
loans, compared to $8 million, or 1.0% of average loans during the same period in 2004. The
decrease in charge-offs and allowance is a result of improvements in credit quality associated with
tighter underwriting guidelines in our home equity business and an improving economy. At March 31,
2005, the allowance for loan and lease losses was 1.3% of outstanding loans and leases, unchanged
from year end 2004.
Total nonperforming loans and leases at March 31, 2005, were $28 million compared to $34
million at December 31, 2004. Nonperforming loans and leases as a percent of total loans and leases
at March 31, 2005 were 0.8%, compared to 1.0% at December 31, 2004. Other real estate we owned
totaled $13 million at March 31, 2005, up from $9 million at December 31, 2004. Total nonperforming
assets at March 31, 2005 were $41 million, or 0.8% of total assets compared to nonperforming assets
at December 31, 2004, of $45 million, or 0.9% of total assets. The 2005 decrease in nonperforming
loans and leases occurred primarily at the commercial banking line of business where nonperforming
loans decreased to $15 million at March 31, 2005, compared to $21 million at the end of 2004. The
majority of this decrease was due to a single nonperforming relationship at the commercial banking
line of business that was moved to other real estate owned.

Generally, the accrual of income is discontinued when the full collection of principal or
interest is in doubt, or when the payment of principal or interest has become contractually 90 days
past due unless the obligation is both well secured and in the process of collection.
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity is the availability of funds to meet the daily requirements of our business. For
financial institutions, demand for funds results principally from extensions of credit and
withdrawal of deposits. Liquidity is provided through deposits and short-term and long-term
borrowings, by asset maturities or sales, and through equity capital.
The objectives of liquidity management are to ensure that funds will be available to meet
current and future demands and that funds are available at a reasonable cost. We manage liquidity
via daily interaction with the lines of business and periodic liquidity planning sessions. Since
loans are less marketable than securities, the ratio of total loans to total deposits is a
traditional measure of liquidity for banks and bank holding companies. At March 31, 2005, the ratio
of loans and loans held for sale to total deposits was 120%. We are comfortable with this
relatively high level due to our position in first mortgage loans held for sale ($0.7 billion) and
second mortgage loans and leases financed through matched-term secured financing ($0.5 billion).
The mortgage loans carry an interest rate at or near current market rates and are generally sold
within a short period after origination. Excluding these two items, our loans to deposit ratio at
March 31, 2005 was 88%.
The mortgage banking line of business sells virtually all of its mortgage loan originations
within 30 days of funding, taking them off our balance sheet. Therefore, the on-balance sheet
funding of first mortgage loans is for the brief period of time from origination to
sale/securitization. In the first quarter of 2005, the home equity lending line of business
produced $0.4 billion and home equity loan sales totaled $0.3 billion, thus requiring increases in
funding facilities for this line of business of $0.1 billion.
Beginning in 2002, home equity loan securitizations were retained on-balance sheet, moving
away from gain-on-sale treatment. As a result, both the securitized assets and the funding from the
securitization are now reflected on the balance sheet. From a liquidity perspective, these
securitizations provide matched funding for the life of the loans making up the securitizations
unless we choose to utilize a clean-up call provision to terminate the securitization funding
early. A clean-up call typically is optional at our discretion. It can typically be made once
outstanding loan balances in the securitization fall below 10% of the original loan balance in the
securitization. Bond principal payments are dependent upon principal collections on the underlying
loans. Prepayment speeds can affect the timing and amount of loan principal payments.
Deposits consist of three primary types: non-maturity transaction account deposits,
certificates of deposit (CDs), and escrow account deposits. Core deposits exclude jumbo CDs,
brokered CDs, public funds and mortgage escrow deposits, although the escrow deposits exhibit
core-like maturity characteristics. Core deposits totaled $2.4 billion at March 31, 2005 compared
to $2.2 billion at December 31, 2004.
Non-maturity transaction account deposits are generated by our commercial banking line of
business and include deposits placed into checking, savings, money market and other types of
deposit accounts by our customers. These types of deposits have no contractual maturity date and
may be withdrawn at any time. While these balances fluctuate daily, a large percentage typically
remains
for much longer. At March 31, 2005, these deposit types totaled $2.0 billion, an increase of
$0.1 billion from December 31, 2004. We monitor overall deposit balances daily with particular
attention given to larger accounts that have the potential for larger daily fluctuations and which
are at greater risk to be withdrawn should there be an industry-wide or bank-specific event that
might cause uninsured depositors to be concerned about the safety of their deposits. On a monthly
basis we model the expected impact on liquidity from moderate and severe liquidity stress scenarios
as one of our tools to ensure that our liquidity is sufficient.
44
CDs differ from non-contractual maturity accounts in that they do have contractual maturity
dates. We issue CDs both directly to customers and through brokers. As of March 31, 2005, CDs
issued directly to customers totaled $0.7 billion, up $0.2 billion from December 31, 2004. Brokered
CDs are typically considered to have higher liquidity (renewal) risk than CDs issued directly to
customers, since brokered CDs are often done in large blocks and since a direct relationship does
not exist with the depositor. In recognition of this, we manage the size and maturity structure of
brokered CDs closely. For example, the maturities of brokered CDs are laddered to mitigate
liquidity risk. CDs issued through brokers totaled $0.3 billion at March 31, 2005, and had an
average remaining life of 15 months, as compared to $0.3 billion outstanding with a 14 month
average remaining life at December 31, 2004.
Escrow account deposits are related to the servicing of our originated first mortgage loans.
When a first mortgage borrower makes a monthly mortgage payment, consisting of interest and
principal due on the loan and often a real estate tax and insurance portion, we hold the payment on
a non-interest earning basis, except where otherwise required by law, until the payment is remitted
to the current owner of the loan or the proper tax authority and insurance carrier. Escrow deposits
may also include proceeds from the payoff of loans in our servicing portfolio prior to the
transmission of those proceeds to investors. At March 31, 2005, these escrow balances totaled $0.7
billion, which was up $0.1 billion from December 31, 2004.
Short-term borrowings consist of borrowings from several sources. Our largest borrowing source
is the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis (FHLBI). We utilize their collateralized borrowing
programs to help fund qualifying first mortgage, home equity and commercial real estate loans. As
of March 31, 2005, FHLBI borrowings outstanding totaled $22 million, a $50 million decrease from
December 31, 2004. We had sufficient collateral pledged to FHLBI at March 31, 2005 to borrow an
additional $0.7 billion, if needed.
In addition to borrowings from the FHLBI, we use other lines of credit as needed. At March 31,
2005, the amount of short-term borrowings outstanding on our major credit lines and the total
amount of the borrowing lines were as follows:
|
|
|
Warehouse lines of credit to fund first mortgages and home equity loans: none outstanding
on a $300 million borrowing facility, of which $150 million is committed |
|
|
|
|
Warehouse borrowing facilities to fund first mortgage loans: none outstanding on a $100
million committed borrowing facility |
|
|
|
|
Lines of credit with correspondent banks, including fed funds lines: $109 million
outstanding out of $215 million available but not committed |
|
|
|
|
Line of credit with a correspondent bank collateralized by mortgage servicing rights:
none outstanding out of $50 million committed borrowing facility |
|
|
|
|
Warehouse lines of credit and conduits to fund Canadian sourced small ticket leases: $184
million outstanding on $281 million of borrowing facilities |
In addition to short-term borrowings from the aforementioned credit lines, sale facilities are
used to effect sale of Government Sponsored Enterprise (GSE) conforming first mortgage loans before
scheduled GSE settlement dates. The first two of these sale facilities listed below have specific
dollar limits as noted. The size of the third facility is limited only by the amount of
mortgage-backed securities we can package for purchase by the facility provider. At March 31, 2005,
the amount unsettled by the GSE on these facilities and the total facility amount were as follows:
|
|
|
Committed warehouse sale facility: $75 million unsettled on a $600 million facility |
|
|
|
|
Uncommitted warehouse sale facility: $37 million unsettled on a $150 million facility |
|
|
|
|
Investor warehouse sale facility: $121 million unsettled |

Interest Rate Risk
Because all of our assets are not perfectly match-funded with like-term liabilities, our
earnings are affected by interest rate changes. Interest rate risk is measured by the sensitivity
of both net interest income and fair market value of net interest sensitive assets to changes in
interest rates.
An asset/liability management committee (ALMC) at each of our lines of business that has
interest rate risk monitors the repricing structure of assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet
items and uses a financial simulation model to measure the potential change in market value of all
interest-sensitive assets and liabilities and also the potential change in earnings resulting from
changes in interest rates. Our corporate-level ALMC oversees the interest rate risk profile of all
of our lines of business as a whole and is represented at each of the line of business ALMCs. We
incorporate many factors into the financial model, including prepayment speeds, deposit rate
forecasts for non-maturity transaction accounts, caps and floors that exist on some variable rate
instruments, fee income and a comprehensive mark-to-market valuation process. We reevaluate risk
measures and assumptions regularly and enhance modeling tools as needed.
Our commercial banking, home equity lending, and commercial finance lines of business assume
interest rate risk in the form of repricing structure mismatches between their loans and leases and
funding sources. We manage this risk by adjusting the duration of their interest sensitive
liabilities and through the use of hedging via financial derivatives.
Our mortgage banking line of business assumes interest rate risk by entering into commitments
to extend loans to borrowers at a fixed rate for a limited period of time. We hold closed loans
only temporarily until a pool is formed and sold in a securitization or under a flow sale
arrangement. To mitigate the risk that interest rates will rise between loan origination and sale,
the mortgage bank buys commitments to deliver loans at a fixed price. Interest rate risk also
exists for the mortgage pipeline period, which is the period starting when a rate lock commitment
is made and ending at the time a loan originates or the rate lock expires. To mitigate this risk,
the mortgage bank also buys commitments to deliver loans at a fixed rate for a portion of our
pipeline.
Our mortgage, commercial banking and home equity lines of business all assume interest rate
risk by holding mortgage servicing rights (MSRs). These assets are recorded at lower of cost or
fair market value. Among other items, a key determinant to the value of MSRs is the prevailing
level of interest rates. We purchase derivative securities to mitigate the expected volatility in
the value of these assets.
Our mortgage, commercial banking and home equity lending lines of business also are exposed to
the risk that interest rates will decline, possibly increasing prepayment speeds on loans and
decreasing the value of servicing assets and residual interests. Some offsets to these exposures
exist in the form of strong production operations, selective sales of servicing rights,
match-funded asset-backed securities sales and the use of financial instruments to manage the
economic performance of the assets. Since there are accounting timing differences between the
recognition of gains or losses on financial derivatives and the realization of economic gains or
losses on certain offsetting exposures (e.g., strong production operations), our decisions on the
degree to which we manage risk with derivative instruments to insulate against short-term price
volatility depends on a variety of factors, including:
|
|
|
the type of risk we are trying to mitigate; |
|
|
|
|
offsetting factors elsewhere in the Corporation; |
|
|
|
|
the level of current capital above our target minimums; |
|
|
|
|
time remaining in the quarter (i.e., days until quarter end); |
|
|
|
|
current level of derivative gain or loss relative to accounting and economic basis; |
|
|
|
|
basis risk: the degree to which the interest rates underlying our derivative instruments
might not move parallel to the interest rate driving our asset valuation; |
|
|
|
|
convexity: the degree to which asset values, or risk management derivative instrument
values, do not change in a linear fashion as interest rates change; and |
|
|
|
|
volatility: the level of volatility in market interest rates and the related impact on
our asset values and derivatives instrument values. |
46
When considering hedging strategies for first mortgage MSRs, we attempt to optimize the
following mix of competing goals:
1. |
|
provide adequate hedge coverage for falling rates; |
|
2. |
|
minimize premium costs to establish hedge positions; |
|
3. |
|
provide a moderate amount of net impairment recapture if interest rates rise; |
|
4. |
|
when near or above the MSR LOCOM cap, maintain an acceptable range over which interest rates
may rise without causing hedge losses to significantly exceed accounting gains |
Pursuit of the last goal may result in the economic value of MSRs increasing without
offsetting hedge losses. In order to capture this economic value in earnings, MSR sales must occur.
Our typical strategy is to establish a corridor of interest rates within which we are
initially hedged. This hedge position is dynamically adjusted throughout the quarter. As interest
rates move, we adjust our corridor accordingly. Significant fluctuations in interest rates or in
the spread between our hedging instruments and mortgage rates can cause the need to reposition our
hedges multiple times. This repositioning may, at times, result in variability in inter-quarter
results that are not reflective of underlying trends for the Corporation.
The following tables reflect our estimate of the present value of interest sensitive assets,
liabilities, and off-balance sheet items at March 31, 2005. In addition to showing the estimated
fair market value at current rates, they also provide estimates of the fair market values of
interest sensitive items based upon a hypothetical instantaneous move both up and down 100 and 200
basis points in the entire yield curve.
The first table is an economic analysis showing the present value impact of changes in
interest rates, assuming a comprehensive mark-to-market environment. The second table is an
accounting analysis showing the same net present value impact, adjusted for expected GAAP
treatment. Neither analysis takes into account the book values of the noninterest sensitive assets
and liabilities (such as cash, accounts receivable, and fixed assets), the values of which are not
directly determined by interest rates.
The analyses are based on discounted cash flows over the remaining estimated lives of the
financial instruments. The interest rate sensitivities apply only to transactions booked as of
March 31, 2005, although certain accounts are normalized whereby the three- or six-month average
balance is included rather than the quarter-end balance in order to avoid having the analysis
skewed by a significant increase or decrease to an account balance at quarter-end.
The tables that follow should be used with caution.
|
|
|
The net asset value sensitivities do not necessarily represent the changes in the lines
of business net asset value that would actually occur under the given interest rate
scenarios, as sensitivities do not reflect changes in value of the companies as a going
concern or management actions that might be taken in the future under asset/liability
management as interest rates change. |
|
|
|
|
Specifically, the volume of derivative contracts entered into to manage the risk of MSRs
fluctuates from quarter to quarter and within a given quarter, depending upon market
conditions, the size of our MSR portfolio and various additional factors. We monitor
derivative positions frequently and reposition them as needed. Therefore, our derivative
positions, shown in the table below as of March 31, 2005, may or may not be representative
of our risk position during the succeeding quarter. Additionally, it is unlikely that the
volume and strike prices of derivative positions would remain constant over large
fluctuations in interest rates, although the tables below assume they do. MSR risk
management derivative contracts appear under the category Interest Sensitive Financial
Derivatives in the tables below. |
|
|
|
|
The tables below show modeled changes in interest rates for individual asset classes.
Asset classes in our portfolio have interest rate sensitivity tied to different underlying
indices or instruments. While the rate sensitivity of individual asset classes presented
below is our best estimate of changes in value due to interest rate changes, the total
potential change figures are subject to basis risk between value changes of individual
assets and liabilities which has not been included in the model. |
47
|
|
|
Few of the asset classes shown react to interest rate changes in a linear fashion. That
is, the point estimates we have made at Current and +/2% and +/1% are good estimates
at those amounts of rate change, but it may not be accurate to interpolate linearly between
those points. This is most evident in products that contain optionality in payment timing or
pricing such as mortgage servicing or nonmaturity transaction deposits. |
|
|
|
|
Finally, the tables show theoretical outcomes for dramatic changes in interest rates
which do not consider potential rebalancing or repositioning of hedges. |

Operational Risk
Operational risk is the risk of loss resulting from inadequate or failed internal processes,
people and systems or from external events. Irwin Financial, like other financial services
organizations, is exposed to a variety of operational risks. These risks include regulatory,
reputational and legal risks, as well as the potential for processing errors, internal or external
fraud, failure of computer systems, and external events that are beyond the control of the
Corporation, such as natural disasters.
Our Board of Directors has ultimate responsibility for approving the level of operational risk
assumed by us. The Board guides management by approving our business strategy and significant
policies. Our management and Board have also established and continue to improve a control
environment that encourages a high degree of awareness and proactivity in alerting senior
management and the Board to potential control issues on a timely basis.
The Board has directed that primary responsibility for the management of operational risk
rests with the managers of our business units, who are responsible for establishing and maintaining
internal control procedures that are appropriate for their operations. In 2002, we started
implementing a multi-year program to provide a more integrated firm-wide approach for the
identification, measurement, monitoring and mitigation of operational risk. The enterprise-wide
operational risk oversight function reports to the Chief Risk Officer, who in turn reports to the
Audit and Risk Management Committee of our Board of Directors and chairs our Enterprise-Wide Risk
Management Committee. We have an enterprise-wide compliance oversight function. The compliance
oversight function reports to our Chief Risk Officer. We have developed risk and control summaries
(risk summaries) for our key business processes. Line of business and corporate-level managers use
the risk summaries to assist in identifying operational and other risks for the purpose of
monitoring and strengthening internal and disclosure controls. Our Chief Executive Officer, Chief
Financial Officer and Board of Directors, as well as the Boards of our subsidiaries, use the risk
summaries to assist in overseeing and assessing the adequacy of our internal and disclosure
controls, including the adequacy of our controls over financial reporting as required by section
404 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act and FDICIA.
The financial services business is highly regulated. Failure to comply with these regulations
could result in substantial monetary or other damages that could be material to our financial
position. Statutes and regulations may change in the future. We cannot predict what effect these
changes, if made, will have on our operations. It should be noted that the supervision, regulation
and examination of banks, thrifts and mortgage companies by regulatory agencies are intended
primarily for the protection of depositors and other customers rather than shareholders of these
institutions.
We are registered as a bank holding company with the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended, and the related regulations. We are
subject to regulation, supervision and examination by the Federal Reserve, and as part of this
process we must file reports and additional information with the Federal Reserve. The regulation,
supervision and examinations occur at the local, state and federal levels and involve, but are not
limited to minimum capital requirements, consumer protection, community reinvestment, and deposit
insurance.
Off-Balance Sheet Instruments
In the normal course of our business as a provider of financial services, we are party to
certain financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk to meet the financial needs of our
customers. These financial instruments include loan commitments and standby letters of credit.
Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess
of the amounts recognized on the consolidated balance sheet. We follow the same credit policies in
making commitments and contractual obligations as we do for our on-balance sheet instruments.
Our exposure to credit loss, in the form of nonperformance by the counterparty on commitments
to extend credit and standby letters of credit, is represented by the contractual amount of those
instruments. Collateral pledged for standby letters of credit and commitments varies but may
include accounts receivable; inventory; property, plant, and equipment; and residential real
estate. Total outstanding commitments to extend credit at March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004,
respectively, were $695 million and $720 million. We had $19 million and $25 million in irrevocable
standby letters of credit outstanding at March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively.
49
Derivative Financial Instruments
Financial derivatives are used as part of the overall asset/liability risk management process.
We use certain derivative instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment under SFAS
133. These derivatives are classified as Other assets and Other liabilities and marked to
market on the income statement. While we do not seek GAAP hedge accounting treatment for the assets
that these instruments are hedging, the economic purpose of these instruments is to manage the risk
inherent in existing exposures to either interest rate risk or foreign currency risk.
We entered into an interest rate swap that has a notional amount (which does not represent the
amount at risk) of $25 million as of March 31, 2005. Under the terms of the swap agreement, we
receive a fixed rate of interest and pay a floating rate of interest based upon one-month LIBOR. We
recognized a loss of $28 thousand included in derivative gains (losses) during the quarter ended
March 31, 2005 related to this swap. By receiving a fixed rate of interest and paying a floating
rate on the swap, we are converting the economics of a $25 million fixed rate-funding source into
a floating rate funding source. Additionally, we enter into interest rate swaps that meet the
criteria for the application of SFAS 133 hedge treatment accounting. These swaps have a notional
amount (which does not represent the amount of risk) of $70 million to hedge a fixed rate
certificate of deposit. We recognized losses of $8 thousand in interest expense related to these
swaps. Under the terms of the swap agreement, we receive a fixed rate of interest and pay a
floating rate of interest based upon three-month LIBOR.
We enter into forward contracts to protect against interest rate fluctuations from the date of
mortgage loan commitment until the loans are sold. A portion of the transactions hedging the closed
mortgage loans qualifies for hedge accounting treatment under SFAS 133. The notional amount of our
forward contracts (which does not represent the amount at risk) totaled $1.1 billion at March 31,
2005. The closed mortgage loans hedged by forward contracts qualify for hedge accounting treatment
under SFAS 133. The basis of the hedged closed loans is adjusted for change in value associated
with the risk being hedged. We value closed loan contracts at period end based upon the current
secondary market value of securities with similar characteristics. The unrealized gain on our
forward contracts at March 31, 2005 was $5 million and the hedge ineffectiveness during the first
quarter of 2005 resulted in a loss of $1 million. The effect of these hedging activities was
recorded through earnings as a component of Gain from sale of loans.
We enter into commitments to originate mortgage loans whereby the interest rate on the loan is
determined prior to funding (rate lock commitments). Rate lock commitments on loans intended to be
sold are considered to be derivatives. We record changes in the fair value of these commitments
based upon the current secondary market value of securities with similar characteristics. For first
quarter of 2005, a net decrease in fair value of these derivatives totaling $4 million was recorded
in Gain from sale of loans. At March 31, 2005, we had a notional amount of rate lock commitments
outstanding totaling $0.8 billion with a fair value of $0.2 million. Notional amounts do not
represent the amount of risk.
Our commercial finance line of business delivered fixed rate leases into conduits that fund
them with floating rate commercial paper, which creates an interest rate risk mismatch.
|
|
|
In two instances, this funding mismatch is lessened by a combination of amortizing
interest rate caps and Eurodollar futures contracts. The interest rate caps have a strike
price of 5% and provide protection against a large increase in short-term interest rates. As
of March 31, 2005, the notional value and first quarter 2005 gain on the interest rate caps
were $21 million and $2 thousand, respectively. As of March 31, 2005, the total notional
amount and year-to-date gain on the Eurodollar futures were $70 million and $0.1 million,
respectively. |
|
|
|
|
We deliver fixed rate leases into a second commercial paper conduit. Although the leases
and funding were in Canadian dollars (CAD), the interest rate mismatch is similar in nature
to that described above. To lessen the repricing mismatch between fixed rate CAD-denominated
leases and floating rate CAD commercial paper, a series of four amortizing CAD interest rate
swaps have been executed, although Irwin is only a counterparty on three of the swaps. The
fourth swap is between the commercial paper conduit and an outside party, but affects the
conduit funding cost that is charged to Irwin. For two of the three swaps on Irwins books,
we pay a fixed rate of interest and receive a floating rate. For the third swap, we pay a
floating rate of interest and receive a fixed rate. The U.S. dollar-equivalents of the
CAD-based notional and year-to-date losses on these swaps at March 31, 2005 were $185
million and $0.3 million, respectively. |
Certain of our home equity fixed rate residual interests are funded with floating rate
liabilities. Starting in the first quarter of 2004, we began entering into Eurodollar futures
contracts to manage such mismatches. The original positions taken are typically rebalanced
quarterly. The current notional value outstanding is $375 million (which does not represent the
amount at risk). As of March 31, 2005, the fair value and year-to-date gain recorded on these
contracts were $0.8 million and $0.6 million, respectively.
50
We manage the interest rate risk associated with our mortgage servicing rights at our mortgage
banking and commercial banking lines of business through the use of swaptions and Eurodollar
futures contracts. Both the options and futures contracts were marked-to-market and included in
Other assets with changes in value recorded in the consolidated income statements as Derivative
gains or losses. At March 31, 2005, we held open swaption positions with a notional value (which
does not represent the amount at risk) totaling $6 billion. In the first quarter of 2005 we
recorded losses on swaptions, including premiums paid, totaling $49 million. We held no Eurodollar
futures contracts at March 31, 2005, but we recorded gains of $1 million on contracts held during
the quarter. The size and mix of these positions change during the year, so period-end positions
may not be indicative of our net risk exposure throughout the year.
We are subject to basis risk in the management of our servicing portfolio. In recent quarters,
the basis risk is moving in a manner opposite to historic patterns, negatively affecting management
of these assets. As discussed in more detail in the section of this report on Interest Rate Risk,
at March 31, 2005, we had approximately $0.2 million of mortgage servicing rights at risk to each
one basis point change in interest rates. This amount increases to approximately $1.5 million as
interest rates decline by approximately 35 basis points from current rates at the end of the
quarter and declines toward zero as rates increase. We typically counter-act this risk with the use
of derivatives with a similar basis point value over a limited range of interest rates. It is not
possible to construct a hedge with similar basis point value over a wide range of interest rates.
Therefore, if interest rates move enough to warrant it, we will reposition our hedges to create a
new range of rates with similar basis point value to the MSRs. Repositioning hedges can be costly.
Over time, this hedge has performed well in mitigating loss in value when interest rates have
declined and has been structured in such a manner so that we can recapture some of the increase in
value of servicing rights as rates rise, without losing an equal amount on our derivatives. Over
the past six months, however, basis risk in our servicing asset and derivative position has caused
our hedging position to be less effective than it has been historically as recent declines in
mortgage rates have not been matched with equal declines in swap rates.
Finally, while basis risk exhibits stability over longer periods of time, over shorter periods
there can be separation in the relative spreads of interest rates and indices used to value
mortgage servicing rights and the financial derivatives we use to hedge the change in value in
mortgage servicing rights. At times this basis risk benefits us and at other times it does not. It
is generally not possible to eliminate this basis risk. It is possible, therefore, that our
balanced revenue strategy may be successful as measured over several quarters or years, but may
have market-based variances if measured over short periods such as quarters.

We own foreign currency forward contracts to protect the U.S. dollar value of intercompany
loans made to Onset Capital Corporation that are denominated in Canadian dollars. We had a notional
amount of $36 million in forward contracts outstanding as of March 31, 2005. Year to date, we
recognized losses on these contracts of $0.1 million. These contracts are marked-to-market with
gains and losses included in Derivative gains or losses on the consolidated income statements.
The foreign currency transaction gain on the intercompany loans was $0.1 million for the quarter
ended March 31, 2005.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
The quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk are reported in the Interest
Rate Risk section of Item 2, Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations found on pages 48 through 51.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures As of the end of the period covered by this
report, the Corporation carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation
of management, including the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and the Chief Financial Officer,
(CFO) of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Corporations disclosure controls
and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(f) of the Securities and Exchange Act of
1934. Based on the evaluation and due to the existence of the material weakness described below,
the CEO and the CFO have concluded that the Corporations disclosure controls and procedures were
not effective as of March 31, 2005.
Identification of Material Weakness A material weakness is a control deficiency, or
combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material
misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. As of
March 31, 2005, the Corporation did not maintain effective controls over the selection and
application of generally accepted accounting principles to incentive service fees received from
whole loan sales to third parties. Specifically, the Corporation accounted for these incentive
service fees as derivative financial instruments instead of mortgage service rights as required by
generally accepted accounting principles. As described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial
statements, this control deficiency has resulted in the restatement of the Corporations 2004
consolidated financial statements and the 2005 first and second quarter consolidated financial
statements. In addition, this control deficiency could, if not corrected or remediated, result in
a misstatement to the derivative balance sheet and income statement accounts that would result
in a material misstatement to the annual or interim financial statements that would not be
prevented or detected. Accordingly, management has concluded that this control deficiency constitutes
a material weakness.
52
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting There were no changes in the
Corporations internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)
of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2005
that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Corporations
internal control over financial reporting.
However, in November and December of 2005, the Corporation took corrective action to remediate the
material weakness identified above. The Corporation designed, documented, and tested additional
controls over the selection and application of generally accepted accounting principles to incentive servicing fees received from whole loan sales to third parties.

PART II. Other Information.
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
Since the time we filed our Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004, we
experienced developments as noted in the litigation described below. For a full description of the
litigation, see Note 11, Commitments and Contingencies, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements, Part I, Item 1, of this Report.
Culpepper v. Inland Mortgage Corporation (class action lawsuit filed in April 1996 in the
United States District Court for the Northern District of Alabama, alleging that Irwin Mortgage,
our indirect subsidiary, violated the federal Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act relating to
Irwin Mortgages payment of broker fees to mortgage brokers).
Developments: Pursuant to the courts order on March 17, 2005, Irwin Mortgage filed a motion
for summary judgment and updated its motion to decertify the class; the plaintiffs updated their
motion for summary judgment.
Cohens v. Inland Mortgage Corporation (lawsuit filed in October 2003 in the Supreme Court of
New York, County of Kings for alleged injuries from lead contamination while living in premises
allegedly owned by defendants).
Developments: The parties agreed to delay the filing of an answer in this case until April 29,
2005.
Litigation in Connection with Loans Purchased from Community Bank of Northern Virginia
(Community) (lawsuits alleging various violations under the Truth-in-Lending Act, the Home
Ownership and Equity Protection Act, the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, the Racketeer
Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, other state law violations, and/or conversion in
connection with loans Irwin Union Bank and Trust Company, our subsidiary, purchased from
Community).
Developments: On March 4, 2005, the court held a hearing on Irwins motion to dismiss in
Hobson v. Irwin Union Bank and Trust Company (action seeking class certification filed in July 2004
in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Alabama). On March 31, 2005, the
Judicial Panel On Multidistrict Litigation held a hearing on Irwins request to transfer Hobson and
two individual lawsuits (Chatfield v. Irwin Union Bank and Trust Company and Ransom v. Irwin Union
Bank and Trust Company) to the Western District of Pennsylvania for coordination or consolidation
with Kossler v. Community Bank of Northern Virginia, an action seeking class certification
originally filed in July 2002 in the United States District Court for the Western District of
Pennsylvania and amended to add Irwin Union Bank and Trust as a defendant in December 2004.
Litigation Related to NorVergence, Inc. (complaints, lawsuits and investigations in various
jurisdictions in connection with the failure of NorVergence, Inc., a telecommunications company
that assigned its leases to Irwin Business Finance and other lenders; the actions against the
lenders, including Irwin Business Finance, seek to void the lease contracts and stop collection
efforts).
Developments: Irwin Business Finance is pursuing discussions with all states in which it has
customers who executed agreements with NorVergence and has discontinued collection activities while
discussions are in progress. Although negotiations are ongoing in the following states, Irwin
believes it has reached agreements in principle with: the Attorney General of California for
recovery of 15% of outstanding balances on California leases as of July 15, 2004; the Attorney
General of Florida, entitling Irwin to lease payments through January 31, 2005; and the Attorney
General of New Jersey for recovery on a staggered scale based on the contract price, with full
forgiveness for gross a contract price of $17,999 or less, to 75% forgiveness for a gross contract
price of $30,000 or more. Irwin also is participating in negotiations with a multi-state group of
attorneys general, which appears to be progressing towards an agreement that would require
NorVergence lessees in their states to pay all amounts due through July 30, 2004, with the lenders,
including Irwin, entitled to 15% of the then-outstanding balance.
The individual lawsuit filed against Irwin Business Finance in the Superior Court of
Massachusetts has been put on hold pending discussions with the multi-state group of attorneys
general, of which the Attorney General of Massachusetts is a participant.
On April 5, 2005, Irwin Business Finance received an informal request for information and
documents from the Federal Trade Commission. Irwin is in the process of responding to this request.
[Note
on Subsequent Events in connection with This Amended Report: On
September 14, 2005, the parties settled Stamper v. A Home of
Your Own, a lawsuit involving our indirect subsidiary, Irwin
Mortgage Corporation, filed in August 1998 in the Baltimore,
Maryland, City Circuit Court. In light of the restatement of
financials in this Form 10-Q/A for the period ended
March 31, 2005, we also made a change to reflect the
liability associated with the settlement of this case.]
We and our subsidiaries are from time to time engaged in various matters of litigation,
including the matters described above, other assertions of improper or fraudulent loan practices or
lending violations, and other matters, and we have a number of unresolved claims pending. In
addition, as part of the ordinary course of business, we and our subsidiaries are parties to
litigation involving claims to the ownership of funds in particular accounts, the collection of
delinquent accounts, challenges to security interests in collateral, and foreclosure interests,
that is incidental to our regular business activities. While the ultimate liability with respect to
these other litigation matters and claims cannot be determined at this time, we believe that
damages, if any, and other amounts relating to pending matters are not likely to be material to our
consolidated financial position or results of operations, except as described above. Reserves are
established for these various matters of litigation, when appropriate under SFAS 5, based in part
upon the advice of legal counsel.
