Item 8.01 Other Events.
On December 28, 2011, TCF Financial Corporation (the Company) adopted a change in its accounting policies for recognizing actuarial gains and losses related to pension and other post retirement benefits. Historically, the Company has reported net actuarial gains and losses as a component of Stockholders Equity in its consolidated balance sheets. Going forward, the Company will immediately recognize actuarial gains and losses in operating results for the year in which the gains and losses occur. For purposes of calculating the expected return on plan assets, the Company will no longer use an averaging technique for the market-related value of plan assets, but will instead use the actual fair value of plan assets. While both the historical and revised policies are permitted under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, the Company believes that the new policies are preferable as the economic results of the plans will be recognized in earnings in the year they occur. The changes in accounting policies are required to be applied retrospectively to prior periods.
The effect that the new accounting policies had on net income as previously reported for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 by and for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 is summarized in exhibit 99.1. Neither the funded status of the Companys pension and other post retirement benefit plans, nor previously reported plan assets or obligations are impacted by the changes in accounting policies. A copy of the Companys financial results under the historical and revised accounting policies is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
