WELLS FARGO REPORTS $2.5 BILLION IN NET INCOME

•

Strong, broad-based earnings

	—		Net income of $2.5 billion after integration expenses of $247 million after-tax

	—		Earnings per common share of $0.45 after integration expenses of $0.05 per common share

	—		All business segments contributed to the strong earnings results: Net income from Community Banking of $1.5 billion; Wholesale Banking of $1.2 billion; and Wealth, Brokerage and Retirement of $282 million

	—		Pre-tax pre-provision profit¹ (PTPP) of $9.3 billion; fifth consecutive quarter PTPP exceeded $9 billion

•

Revenue of $21.4 billion, up 2 percent from first quarter 2009

—

Fee income up 7 percent year over year, led by 20 percent growth in trust and investment fees, 7 percent growth in insurance revenue and 14 percent growth in processing and other fees

	—		Net interest margin of 4.27 percent, up 11 basis points from a year ago, highest among large bank peers

	—		Average checking and savings deposits up 14 percent from a year ago

	—		Mortgage application pipeline of $59 billion at March 31, 2010, up $2 billion from December 31, 2009

•

Credit believed to have “turned the corner”

	—		Provision expense down $583 million from prior quarter and currently expected to continue to decline over the course of 2010; provision for credit losses equaled net charge-offs in first quarter

	—		Net charge-offs declined $83 million to $5.3 billion. First quarter charge-offs included $123 million related to newly consolidated loans due to the adoption of FAS 167² and $145 million related to newly issued regulatory charge-off guidance applicable to collateral-dependent residential real estate loan modifications. All other charge-offs were $5.1 billion, down from $5.4 billion in fourth quarter. Commercial and commercial real estate charge-offs declined $356 million from fourth quarter 2009

Growth in nonaccrual balances largely reflected the time required to work with homeowners to modify loans before foreclosing and efforts to work with developers rather than foreclose

	—		Allowance for credit losses increased to $25.7 billion, primarily due to $693 million addition to allowance upon adoption of FAS 167; allowance at 3.3 percent of loans and almost 5 times quarterly net charge-offs

	—		Remaining purchased credit impaired (PCI) nonaccretable balance was $19.9 billion at March 31, 2010; PCI portfolio in the aggregate continued to perform at or better than original assumptions

SAN FRANCISCO — Wells Fargo & Company (NYSE:WFC) reported diluted earnings per common share of $0.45 and net income of $2.5 billion for first quarter 2010.

“Once again the resiliency and advantages of Wells Fargo’s diversified business model proved themselves in a difficult business environment, even as we continued to make smooth progress with our industry’s largest merger, our integration with Wachovia,” said Chairman and CEO John Stumpf. “Though the economy continues to present challenges, and we’ve yet to see consumers and businesses resume past levels of spending and borrowing, our teams at Wells Fargo still found opportunities to serve the financial needs of customers, setting the stage for a first quarter performance that featured contributions from each of our core business groups.

“We’re encouraged by signs of improvement in the credit cycle, and by the savings and cross sell opportunities we’re realizing as more Wachovia bank stores convert to Wells Fargo. To capitalize on these emerging opportunities, our focus will be on just that, keeping our focus, so we can continue to deliver the

performance investors expect, the services and products customers demand, and the leadership our communities desire. Whether it is helping customers plan for retirement, or households avoid foreclosure, or financing the goals of entrepreneurs, we’re confident Wells Fargo will continue to be uniquely positioned to contribute to America’s economic recovery.”

Financial Performance

“Our company earned $2.5 billion in the quarter, a great example of how Wells Fargo’s business model produces solid results in different stages of the economic cycle,” said Chief Financial Officer Howard Atkins. “While loan demand remained soft in the quarter and net mortgage hedging results declined to levels of a year ago, businesses as diverse as asset-based lending, debit card, insurance, merchant services, student lending and retirement services all showed solid gains. Credit metrics in many portfolios— including loss rates and early indicators — performed better than our previous expectations for first quarter. Based on results for the last few quarters and current loss projections, we believe that credit at Wells Fargo has turned the corner with provision expenses already having peaked in third quarter 2009 and net charge-offs having peaked in fourth quarter 2009. We continued to build capital in the first quarter, with Tier 1 common reaching 7.10 percent, up 64 basis points in the quarter entirely on internal capital generation, Tier 1 leverage reaching 8.3 percent and Tier 1 capital reaching 10.0 percent.”

Revenue

Revenue in the first quarter was $21.4 billion and pre-tax pre-provision profit was $9.3 billion. The Company has earned at least $9.0 billion in pre-tax pre-provision profit each quarter since the Wachovia acquisition. “Despite a $58 billion decline in average total loans, revenue grew 2 percent from the prior year, reflecting the diversity of our revenue sources,” said Atkins. Year-over-year revenue was driven by 20 percent growth in trust and investment fees, 7 percent growth in insurance fees, 14 percent growth in processing and other fees, and an 11 basis point increase in the net interest margin. Mortgage banking revenues were flat from the prior year. On a linked-quarter basis, total revenue declined $1.2 billion, due primarily to the reduction in mortgage hedging results to levels more typical for this point in the cycle.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income of $11.1 billion declined only 2 percent from a year ago despite a 7 percent, or $58 billion, decline in average loans. The net interest margin was 4.27 percent, up 11 basis points from a year ago largely due to substantial growth in core consumer and business checking and savings accounts.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income was $10.3 billion, up 7 percent from a year ago. On a linked-quarter basis, noninterest income was down $895 million due primarily to lower net mortgage hedge results, seasonality and two fewer days in the quarter. First quarter noninterest income included:

•

Mortgage banking fees of $2.5 billion, down $34 million from a year ago:

—

$1.1 billion in revenue from mortgage loan originations/sales activities on $76 billion of residential mortgage originations and $125 billion of applications. Origination revenue declined

- 5 -

			year over year on a 25 percent decline in originations, largely due to a decline in refinance activity. Mortgage origination revenue was also reduced by a $402 million addition to the repurchase reserve in first quarter 2010

	—		$1.4 billion of servicing income, up $460 million year over year, largely attributable to other changes in fair value due to a decline in pay-offs. Mortgage hedging results were roughly flat from a year ago and declined $893 million linked quarter largely due to a change in the composition of the hedge toward more interest rate swaps and lower coupon mortgage forwards designed to maintain ongoing hedge effectiveness. The ratio of total MSRs as a percent of loans serviced for others declined 2 basis points to 0.89 percent

•		Trust and investment fees of $2.7 billion, up 20 percent year over year, reflecting continued growth in new customers, higher transaction volumes and stronger equity markets

•		Service charges on deposit accounts of $1.3 billion, down 4 percent year over year, as consumers have decreased their spending and increased their savings, which offset the impact on service fees from continued strong account growth

•		Insurance revenue of $621 million, up 7 percent year over year, reflecting customer growth and higher crop insurance revenues

•		Trading revenues of $537 million, representing less than 3 percent of total consolidated revenue

The Company had net unrealized securities gains of $7.4 billion at March 31, 2010, compared with $5.6 billion at December 31, 2009.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense of $12.1 billion, which included $380 million of merger integration costs and $11.7 billion of all other expense, was down from $12.8 billion in fourth quarter 2009. First quarter credit resolution costs, including expenses associated with foreclosed assets, loan modifications and other home preservation activities, were approximately $250 million higher than a year ago. “Of our approximately $5 billion of estimated total integration costs, we expect approximately $2 billion to be expensed in 2010, as we convert banking stores and lines of business, and continue to build infrastructure,” said Atkins. “In addition to merger integration, we continued to invest for long-term growth throughout the Company, adding people in regional banking and commercial banking as we apply Wells Fargo’s model to the eastern markets, and investing in technology to improve service across our franchise.” The efficiency ratio was 56.5 percent in both first quarter 2010 and fourth quarter 2009 and 56.2 percent in first quarter 2009.

Income Taxes

The Company’s income tax expense for the quarter included $53 million ($0.01 per common share) due to the impact of health care legislation on the Company’s postretirement medical benefits deferred tax asset.

Loans

Average total loans were $797.4 billion, up $4.9 billion from fourth quarter 2009. Total loans at March 31, 2010, included $23.4 billion related to the adoption of FAS 167. “While we continued to supply significant amounts of credit to consumers and businesses in the first quarter, as we have done throughout the credit crunch, loan demand remained soft,” said Atkins. “In addition, we continued to reduce high-risk/non-strategic consumer assets, which were down $4.3 billion in first quarter and down $23.2 billion cumulatively since the Wachovia acquisition.”

Deposits

Average total core deposits were $759.2 billion, compared with $770.8 billion in fourth quarter 2009 and $753.9 billion in first quarter 2009. Of the core deposits, $664.4 billion represent transaction accounts or low-cost savings accounts from consumer and commercial customers, which increased 2 percent (annualized) from $661.4 billion in fourth quarter 2009. Average mortgage escrow deposits were $24.6 billion, compared with $27.5 billion in fourth quarter 2009. Consumer checking accounts grew a net 7.0 percent from first quarter 2009. “Year over year, we saw strong growth in noninterest-bearing deposits,” said Atkins. “The linked-quarter decline in total deposits was driven partly by the maturity of higher-cost certificates of deposits over the last two quarters.”

Capital

“We continued to build capital during the first quarter, with all ratios higher at March 31, 2010, than year-end,” said Atkins. The adoption of FAS 167 resulted in the consolidation of $18.6 billion of net incremental GAAP assets and $6 billion of risk-adjusted assets, with less than a 1 basis point impact on the Company’s Tier 1 common equity ratio.

Credit Quality

“We believe quarterly provision expenses and quarterly total credit losses have peaked,” said Chief Credit and Risk Officer Mike Loughlin. “Losses in the first quarter of $5.3 billion were down from $5.4 billion in fourth quarter 2009, even after $123 million of FAS 167 losses taken in the first quarter and $145 million due to newly issued regulatory guidance requiring the Company to charge-off certain collateral-dependent residential real estate loans that have been modified. The costs related to this charge had previously been reserved. Our credit picture has improved earlier than we had anticipated. In the consumer portfolio, lower early stage delinquencies, better delinquency roll rates, and improved values for residential real estate and autos were evident in the first quarter. In the commercial portfolio (including commercial real estate) losses declined $356 million from fourth quarter 2009 and may indicate stabilization and an earlier-than-expected loss peak.

“This improvement in credit quality can be partly attributed to actions we took as early as 2007, including significant investment in collections, loss mitigation and workout teams; a refined consumer credit policy that reduced maximum loan-to-value requirements and virtually eliminated stated income as an acceptable element of loan applications; and the establishment of a number of run-off/liquidating portfolios. These actions have produced high quality subsequent vintages, and allowed us to focus our loss remediation efforts in an efficient fashion.

“Nonperforming assets (NPAs) continued to increase, although at a slower rate than in the past three quarters, with all of the first quarter increase coming from consumer real estate loans and commercial real estate loans. We expect NPAs to continue to increase gradually and peak before year end. The peak in NPAs should naturally lag the credit loss peak, reflecting an environment where retaining these assets is the most viable economic option for the Company and the best way to help borrowers recover financially.

“Our provision in the first quarter equaled net charge-offs. The loan loss reserve increase from year end is fully attributable to assets brought on balance sheet due to the adoption of FAS 167.”

Credit Losses

First quarter net charge-offs were $5.33 billion, or 2.71 percent of average loans (annualized), compared with fourth quarter net charge-offs of $5.41 billion, or 2.71 percent. Total credit losses included $1.3 billion of commercial and commercial real estate loans (1.79 percent) and $4.0 billion of consumer loans (3.45 percent) as shown in the following table. First quarter charge-offs included $123 million in losses associated with assets brought onto the balance sheet upon adoption of FAS 167 and $145 million in losses associated with newly issued regulatory charge-off guidance applicable to collateral-dependent real estate loan modifications.

Nonperforming assets

Total nonperforming assets were $31.5 billion (4.0 percent of total loans) at March 31, 2010, up 14 percent from $27.6 billion at December 31, 2009. At the end of the first quarter, nonperforming assets included $27.3 billion of nonperforming loans and $4.2 billion of foreclosed assets and repossessed real estate and vehicles. “The rate of growth in nonperforming assets continued to decline, and the estimated remaining loss content in these assets is significantly mitigated,” said Loughlin.

Growth in nonaccrual loans slowed in first quarter, increasing from fourth quarter 2009 by $2.9 billion, including $909 million related to assets brought on the balance sheet upon adoption of FAS 167. In the first quarter, substantially all of the change in nonaccrual loans related to consumer and commercial real estate loans, and inflows of new nonaccruals declined on a linked quarter basis, including declines in non-FAS 167 consumer real estate inflows and total commercial and commercial real estate inflows, with a

- 9 -

27 percent decline in commercial real estate inflows. Loss expectations for nonaccrual loans are driven by delinquency rates, default probabilities and severities. While nonaccrual loans are not free of loss content, the loss exposure remaining in these balances is significantly mitigated by four factors. First, 91 percent of nonaccrual loans are secured. Second, losses have already been recognized on 37 percent of the consumer nonaccruals and 29 percent of commercial nonaccruals and, when a residential nonaccrual loan reaches 180 days past due, it is our policy to write these loans down to net realizable value. Third, as of March 31, 2010, 45 percent of commercial nonaccrual loans were current on interest. Fourth, there are certain nonaccruals for which there are loan level reserves in the allowance, while others are covered by general reserves.

(1)		The Company consolidated certain VIEs prior to the adoption of FAS 167 on January 1, 2010. At December 31, 2009, consolidated VIE loans totaled $561 million, of which there were no loans on nonaccrual status.

(2)		The majority of losses associated with consolidated VIE loans on nonaccrual status will ultimately be borne by third party security holders in future periods.

Residential mortgage nonaccrual loans increased largely due to slower disposition, not increased quarterly inflow. Federal government programs, such as HAMP, and Wells Fargo proprietary programs, such as the Company’s Pick-a-Pay Mortgage Assistance program, require customers to provide updated documentation and complete trial repayment periods before the loan can be removed from nonaccrual status. In addition, for loans in foreclosure, many states, including California and Florida where Wells Fargo has significant exposures, have enacted legislation that significantly increases the time frames to

- 10 -

complete the foreclosure process, meaning that loans will remain in nonaccrual status for longer periods. “At the conclusion of the foreclosure process, we continue to sell real estate owned in a very timely fashion,” said Loughlin.

“When a consumer real estate loan is 120 days past due, we move it to nonaccrual status and when the loan reaches 180 days past due it is our policy to write these loans down to net realizable value. Thereafter, we revalue each loan in nonaccrual status regularly and recognize additional charges if needed. Our quarterly market classification process, employed since late 2007, indicates that most MSAs have stabilized and we anticipate manageable additional write-downs while properties work through the foreclosure process.

“While foreclosed assets increased 30 percent in the quarter, the majority of the projected loss content in these assets has already been accounted for, and increases to this population of assets should have minimal additional impact to expected loss levels.

“Given our real estate-secured loan concentrations and the economic conditions affecting these industries, we anticipate continuing to hold a high level of NPAs on our balance sheet,” said Loughlin. “We expect the rate of growth in nonperforming asset balances to continue to decline, but expect balances to continue increasing modestly near term. We remain focused on proactively identifying problem credits, moving them to nonperforming status and recording the loss content in a timely manner. We’ve increased and will continue to increase staffing in our workout and collection organizations to ensure these troubled borrowers receive the attention and help they need.”

Loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing totaled $21.8 billion at March 31, 2010, and $22.2 billion at December 31, 2009. For the same periods, the totals included $15.9 billion and $15.3 billion, respectively, in advances pursuant to the Company’s servicing agreement to GNMA mortgage pools and similar loans whose repayments are insured by the Federal Housing Administration or guaranteed by the Department of Veteran Affairs. At March 31, 2010, loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing included $107 million associated with consolidated VIE loans.

(1)		The table above does not include PCI loans that were contractually 90 days past due and still accruing. These loans have a related nonaccretable difference that will absorb future losses; therefore charge-offs on these loans are not expected to reduce income in future periods to the extent that actual future loan performance is consistent with original estimates.

(2)		The majority of losses associated with consolidated VIE loans that are 90 days or more past due and still accruing will ultimately be borne by third party security holders in future periods.

(3)		The Company consolidated certain VIEs prior to the adoption of FAS 167 on January 1, 2010. At December 31, 2009, consolidated VIE loans totaled $561 million, of which there were no loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The provision for credit losses in the quarter equaled charge-offs. The allowance for credit losses, including the reserve for unfunded commitments, totaled $25.7 billion at March 31, 2010, up from $25.0 billion at December 31, 2009, with the increase due to the adoption of FAS 167. The allowance also reflects the Company’s estimated impact of government programs related to residential modifications, based on information available about these programs. The allowance coverage to total loans increased to 3.28 percent, compared with 3.20 percent at December 31, 2009. The allowance coverage to NPLs was 94 percent at March 31, 2010, compared with 103 percent at December 31, 2009. “We believe the allowance was adequate for losses inherent in the loan portfolio at March 31, 2010, including both performing and nonperforming loans,” said Loughlin.

Additional detail on credit quality and trends is included in the quarterly supplement, available on the Investor Relations page at wellsfargo.com.

Cautionary Statement about Forward-Looking Information

In accordance with the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, we caution you that this news release contains forward-looking statements about our future financial performance and business. We make forward-looking statements when we use words such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “should,” “may,” “can,” “will,” “outlook,” “project,” “appears” or similar expressions. Forward-looking statements in this news release include, among others, statements about: (i) future credit quality and expected or estimated future loan losses in our loan portfolios, including our belief that quarterly provision expense and quarterly total credit losses have peaked and are expected to decline; the level and loss content of nonperforming assets and nonaccrual loans, including our expectation that nonperforming assets will continue to increase gradually and peak before year end; and the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses; (ii) reduction or mitigation of risk in our loan portfolios and the effects of loan modification programs; and (iii) the amount and timing of expected integration activities, expenses and cost savings relating to the Wachovia merger, as well as the expected synergies and benefits of the merger, including that we currently estimate merger expenses of approximately $5 billion, including approximately $2 billion estimated for 2010.

Do not unduly rely on forward-looking statements as actual results could differ materially from expectations. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date made, and we do not undertake to update them to reflect changes or events that occur after that date. Several factors could cause actual results to differ materially from expectations including: current and future economic and market conditions, including the effects of further declines in housing prices and high unemployment rates; our capital requirements and our ability to generate capital internally or raise capital on favorable terms; the terms of capital investments or other financial assistance provided by the U.S. government; financial services reform; the extent of success in our loan modification efforts, including the effects of regulatory requirements, or changes in regulatory requirements, relating to loan modifications; our ability to successfully and timely integrate the Wachovia merger and realize the expected cost savings and other benefits, including delays or disruptions in system conversions and higher severance costs; our ability to

- 17 -

realize efficiency initiatives to lower expenses when and in the amount expected; recognition of other-than-temporary impairment on securities held in our available-for-sale portfolio; the effect of changes in interest rates on our net interest margin and our mortgage originations, mortgage servicing rights and mortgages held for sale; hedging gains or losses; disruptions in the capital markets and reduced investor demand for mortgage loans; our ability to sell more products to our customers; the effect of the economic recession on the demand for our products and services; the effect of fluctuations in stock market prices on fee income from our brokerage, asset and wealth management businesses; our election to provide support to our mutual funds for structured credit products they may hold; changes in the value of our venture capital investments; changes in our accounting policies or in accounting standards or in how accounting standards are to be applied; mergers and acquisitions; federal and state regulations; reputational damage from negative publicity, fines, penalties and other negative consequences from regulatory violations; the loss of checking and saving account deposits to other investments such as the stock market; and fiscal and monetary policies of the Federal Reserve Board. There is no assurance that our allowance for credit losses will be adequate to cover future credit losses, especially if credit markets, housing prices, and unemployment do not improve. Increases in loan charge-offs or in the allowance for credit losses and related provision expense could materially adversely affect our financial results and condition. For more information about factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations, refer to our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, including the discussions under “Risk Factors” in that report, as filed with the SEC and available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Any factor described above or in our SEC reports could, by itself or together with one or more other factors, adversely affect our financial results and condition.

(3)		Core deposits are noninterest-bearing deposits, interest-bearing checking, savings certificates, certain market rate and other savings, and certain foreign deposits (Eurodollar sweep balances).

(4)		Retail core deposits are total core deposits excluding Wholesale Banking core deposits and retail mortgage escrow deposits.

(1)		The efficiency ratio is noninterest expense divided by total revenue (net interest income and noninterest income).

(2)		Pre-tax pre-provision profit (PTPP) is total revenue less noninterest expense. Management believes that PTPP is a useful financial measure because it enables investors and others to assess the Company’s ability to generate capital to cover credit losses through a credit cycle.

(3)		Core deposits are noninterest-bearing deposits, interest-bearing checking, savings certificates, certain market rate and other savings, and certain foreign deposits (Eurodollar sweep balances).

(4)		Retail core deposits are total core deposits excluding Wholesale Banking core deposits and retail mortgage escrow deposits.

(5)		The March 31, 2010, ratios are preliminary.

(6)		See page 37 for additional information.

NEWLY CONSOLIDATED VIE ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

Effective January 1, 2010, we adopted changes in consolidation accounting pursuant to amendments by ASU 2009-17 to ASC 810 (FAS 167) and, accordingly, consolidated certain VIEs that were not included in our consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2009. On January 1, 2010, we recorded the assets and liabilities of the newly consolidated VIEs and derecognized our existing interests in those VIEs. We also recorded a $183 million increase to beginning retained earnings as a cumulative effect adjustment and recorded a $173 million increase to other comprehensive income. The following table presents the net incremental assets and liabilities recorded upon adoption of the ASU 2009-17 amendments to ASC 810 (FAS 167).

CHANGES IN VIE ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

Consolidated VIEs include VIEs consolidated prior to the adoption of amended ASC 810 (FAS 167) as well as VIEs newly consolidated upon adoption. ASC 810 requires companies to continually reassess whether they are the primary beneficiary of a VIE. As a result of events that occurred during the quarter, we deconsolidated certain VIEs. The following table presents the detail of changes in the assets and liabilities of all consolidated VIEs from January 1, 2010, through March 31, 2010.

PURCHASED CREDIT-IMPAIRED (PCI) LOANS

At the time of acquisition, certain loans acquired from Wachovia had evidence of credit deterioration since origination and it was considered probable that we would not collect all contractually required principal and interest payments (referred to as “purchased credit-impaired” (PCI) loans). Such loans are accounted for under ASC 310-30, Receivables (American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position 03-3, Accounting for Certain Loans or Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer). These accounting provisions require that acquired loans be recorded at fair value at the acquisition date and prohibits carryover of the related allowance for loan losses. The difference between contractually required payments and cash flows expected to be collected is referred to as the nonaccretable difference. The difference between the cash flows expected to be collected and the fair value is referred to as the accretable yield.

Because PCI loans were written down in purchase accounting to an amount estimated to be collectible, such loans are not classified as nonaccrual even though they may be contractually past due. Also, losses on such loans are charged against the nonaccretable difference established in purchase accounting and, as such, are not reported as charge-offs.

As a result of the application of ASC 310-30 to credit-impaired Wachovia loans, certain ratios of the combined company cannot be used to compare a portfolio that includes PCI loans against one that does not, or to compare ratios across quarters or years. The ratios particularly affected include the allowance for loan losses and allowance for credit losses as percentages of loans, of nonaccrual loans and of nonperforming assets; nonaccrual loans and nonperforming assets as a percentage of total loans; and net charge-offs as a percentage of loans.

CHANGES IN NONACCRETABLE DIFFERENCE FOR PCI LOANS

The nonaccretable difference was established in purchase accounting for PCI loans to absorb losses expected at that time on those loans. Amounts absorbed by the nonaccretable difference do not affect the income statement or the allowance for credit losses. The following table provides an analysis of changes in the nonaccretable difference related to principal that is not expected to be collected.

(1)		Release of the nonaccretable difference for payments in full increases interest income in the period of payment. Pick-a-Pay and Other consumer PCI loans do not reflect nonaccretable difference releases due to pool accounting for those loans.

(2)		Release of the nonaccretable difference as a result of sales to third parties increases noninterest income in the period of the sale.

(3)		Reclassification of nonaccretable difference for increased cash flow estimates to the accretable yield will result in increasing income and thus the rate of return realized. Amounts reclassified to accretable yield are expected to be probable of realization.

(4)		Write-downs to net realizable value of PCI loans are charged to the nonaccretable difference when severe delinquency (normally 180 days) or other indications of severe borrower financial stress exist that indicate there will be a loss of contractually due amounts upon final resolution of the loan.

CHANGES IN ACCRETABLE YIELD RELATED TO PCI LOANS

The excess of cash flows expected to be collected over the initial fair value of PCI loans is referred to as the accretable yield and is accreted into interest income over the estimated life of the PCI loans using the effective yield method. The accretable yield will change due to:

	1)		estimate of the remaining life of PCI loans which may change the amount of future interest income, and possibly principal, expected to be collected;

	2)		estimate of the amount of contractually required principal and interest payments over the estimated life that will not be collected (the nonaccretable difference); and

	3)		indices for PCI loans with variable rates of interest.

For PCI loans, the impact of loan modifications is included in the evaluation of expected cash flows for subsequent decreases or increases of cash flows. For variable rate PCI loans, expected future cash flows will be recalculated as the rates adjust over the lives of the loans. At acquisition, the expected future cash flows were based on the variable rates that were in effect at that time. The change in the accretable yield related to PCI loans is presented in the following table.

CHANGES IN ALLOWANCE FOR PCI LOAN LOSSES

When it is estimated that the expected cash flows have decreased subsequent to acquisition for a PCI loan or pool of loans, an allowance is established and a provision for additional loss is recorded as a charge to income. The following table summarizes the changes in allowance for PCI loan losses.

(1)		The individual states shown in this table represent the top five states based on the total net carrying value of the Pick-a-Pay loans at the beginning of 2010. The December 31, 2009 table has been revised to conform to the 2010 presentation of top five states.

(2)		The current loan-to-value (LTV) ratio is calculated as the unpaid principal balance plus the unpaid principal balance of any equity lines of credit that share common collateral divided by the collateral value. Collateral values are generally determined using automated valuation models (AVM) and are updated quarterly. AVMs are computer-based tools used to estimate market values of homes based on processing large volumes of market data including market comparables and price trends for local market areas.

(3)		Carrying value, which does not reflect the allowance for loan losses, includes purchase accounting adjustments, which, for PCI loans, are the nonaccretable difference and the accretable yield, and for all other loans, an adjustment to mark the loans to a market yield at date of merger less any subsequent charge-offs.

(1)		The impact of adopting new accounting provisions for recording other-than-temporary impairment on debt securities as prescribed in ASC 320-10, Investments – Debt and Equity Securities (FASB Staff Position (FSP) FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2, Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments), was to increase the 2009 beginning balance of retained earnings and reduce the 2009 beginning balance of other comprehensive income by $85 million ($53 million after tax).

(2)		Effective January 1, 2010, we adopted changes in consolidation accounting pursuant to amendments by ASU 2009 – 17 to ASC 810 (FAS 167) and, accordingly, consolidated certain VIEs that were not included in our consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2009. We recorded a $183 million increase to beginning retained earnings as a cumulative effect adjustment.

(3)		On March 31, 2009, we early adopted new fair value measurement provisions contained in ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (FSP FAS 157-4, Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly). This guidance addresses determining fair values for securities in circumstances where the market for such securities is illiquid and transactions involve distressed sales. In such circumstances, ASC 820-10 permits use of other inputs in estimating fair value that may include pricing models.

(1)		Tier 1 common equity is a non-GAAP financial measure that is used by investors, analysts and bank regulatory agencies, including the Federal Reserve in the Supervisory Capital Assessment Program, to assess the capital position of financial services companies. Tier 1 common equity includes total Wells Fargo stockholders’ equity, less preferred equity, goodwill and intangible assets (excluding MSRs), net of related deferred taxes, adjusted for specified Tier 1 regulatory capital limitations covering deferred taxes, MSRs, and cumulative other comprehensive income. Management reviews Tier 1 common equity along with other measures of capital as part of its financial analyses and has included this non-GAAP financial information, and the corresponding reconciliation to total equity, because of current interest in such information on the part of market participants.

(2)		Under the regulatory guidelines for risk-based capital, on-balance sheet assets and credit equivalent amounts of derivatives and off-balance sheet items are assigned to one of several broad risk categories according to the obligor or, if relevant, the guarantor or the nature of any collateral. The aggregate dollar amount in each risk category is then multiplied by the risk weight associated with that category. The resulting weighted values from each of the risk categories are aggregated for determining total risk-weighted assets. The Company’s March 31, 2010, preliminary risk-weighted assets reflect estimated on-balance sheet risk-weighted assets of $817.0 billion and derivative and off-balance sheet risk-weighted assets of $170.7 billion.

(1)		The management accounting process measures the performance of the operating segments based on our management structure and is not necessarily comparable with other similar information for other financial services companies. We define our operating segments by product type and customer segment. In first quarter 2010, we conformed certain funding and allocation methodologies of legacy Wachovia to those of Wells Fargo; in addition, amounts remaining in “Other” related to integration expense were revised to reflect only integration expense related to the Wachovia merger. Prior periods have been revised to reflect both changes.

(2)		Net interest income is the difference between interest earned on assets and the cost of liabilities to fund those assets. Interest earned includes actual interest earned on segment assets and, if the segment has excess liabilities, interest credits for providing funding to other segments. The cost of liabilities includes interest expense on segment liabilities and, if the segment does not have enough liabilities to fund its assets, a funding charge based on the cost of excess liabilities from another segment.

(3)		Includes Wachovia integration expenses and the elimination of items that are included in both Community Banking and Wealth, Brokerage and Retirement, largely representing wealth management customers serviced and products sold in the stores.
