Flagstar (FBC) Reports Wider Q4, FY11 Loss Following DoJ Analysis

Flagstar Bancorp, Inc. (NYSE: FBC) has completed its analysis of the impact to its fourth quarter and full year 2011 financial results arising from the agreement the Bank announced with the U.S. Department of Justice on February 24, 2012. This agreement was described in the Company's earlier press release issued on February 24, 2012. Based on its analysis of the agreement, the Company has revised its fourth quarter and full year 2011 financial results to reflect an increase of $29.1 million, or $(0.05) per share in net loss applicable to common shareholders.

As a result, for the three months ended December 31, 2011, net loss applicable to common shareholders increased to $(74.0) million, or $(0.13) per diluted share, as compared to the previously reported $(44.9) million, or $(0.08) per diluted share. For the year ended December 31, 2011, net loss applicable to common shareholders increased to $(194.7) million, or $(0.35) per diluted share, as compared to the previously reported $(165.6) million, or $(0.30) per diluted share. The Company expects to review its fair value analysis of the settlement amount quarterly going forward, as required by accounting rules, and make further adjustments as necessary. At December 31, 2011 the Bank remained well-capitalized with a revised Tier 1 capital ratio of 8.98 percent, and based on profitable operations during January 2012 and a slightly higher balance sheet at January 31, 2012, expects a January 31, 2012 Tier 1 capital ratio of 9.18 percent.
