The following sections describe in detail the changes in key operating factors and other changes and events

Other revenue 47,478 35,013 12,465 36 %
Total non-interest income (expense) (1,347,144) 1,065,259 (2,412,403) (226)%
Total net revenue $ (378,167) $ 2,420,321 $(2,798,488) (116)%
Total net revenue declined by 116% to negative revenue of $378.2 million for the year ended
December 31, 2007 compared to 2006. This decline was driven by the $2.2 billion loss on the sale of our asset-
backed securities portfolio and an increase in the provision for loan losses of $595.1 million to $640.1 million for
the year ended December 31, 2007 compared to 2006.
Net Operating Interest Income
Net operating interest income increased 15% to $1.6 billion for the year ended December 31, 2007
compared to 2006. Net operating interest income is earned primarily through holding credit balances, which
includes margin, real estate and consumer loans, and by holding customer cash and deposits, which are a low cost
source of funding. The increase in net operating interest income was due primarily to the increase in enterprise
interest-earning assets. Average loans, net as a percentage of average enterprise interest-earning assets increased
5% to 54% for the year ended December 31, 2007 compared to 2006.
