GLOSSARY OF TERMS

In analyzing and discussing our business, we utilize certain metrics, ratios and other terms that are defined in the “Glossary of Terms,” which is located at the end of Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

OVERVIEW

Strategy

Our strategy centers on strengthening and growing our retail business and leveraging that growth in our institutional business. We strive to further develop our retail business by acquiring, retaining and expanding our relationships with global retail customers. We offer our retail and institutional customers a suite of trading, investing, banking and lending products. We plan to grow these relationships organically by using technology to deliver an attractive combination of product, service and price to the value-driven mass affluent customer. We also intend to grow, where appropriate, through targeted acquisitions which leverage our existing business platform and through further expansion into certain international markets.

Key Factors Affecting Financial Performance

Our financial performance is affected by a number of factors outside of our control, including:

•

customer demand for financial products and services;

•

competitors’ pricing on financial products and services;

•

the weakness or strength of the consumer credit market;

•

interest rates and the shape of the interest rate yield curve; and

•

the performance, volume and volatility of the equity and capital markets.

In addition to the items noted above, our success in the future will depend upon, among other things:

•

continuing our success in the acquisition, growth and retention of customers;

•

deepening customer acceptance of our trading, investing, banking and lending products;

•

disciplined expense control and improved operational efficiency;

•

maintaining strong overall asset quality; and

•

prudent risk and capital management.

Management monitors a number of metrics in evaluating the Company’s performance. The most significant of these are shown in the table and discussed in the text below:

⁽¹⁾

Net revenue growth is the difference between the current and prior comparable period total net revenue divided by the prior comparable period total net revenue.

Customer Activity Metrics

•

Retail client assets are an indicator of the value of our relationship with the customer. An increase in retail client assets generally indicates that the use of our products and services by existing and new customers is expanding. Changes in this metric are also driven by changes in the valuations of our customers’ underlying securities.

•

Customer cash and deposits are an indicator of a deepening engagement with our customers and are a key driver of net operating interest income.

•

Daily average revenue trades (“DARTs”) are the predominant driver of commission revenue from our retail customers.

•

Average commission per trade is an indicator of changes in our customer mix, product mix and/or product pricing. As a result, this metric is impacted by both the mix between our retail domestic and international businesses and the mix between active traders, mass affluent and main street customers.

Company Financial Metrics

•

Net revenue growth is an indicator of our overall financial well-being and our ability to execute on our strategy. When coupled with operating margin, the two provide information about the general success of our business.

•

Enterprise net interest spread is a broad indicator of our ability to generate net operating interest income.

•

Enterprise interest-earning assets, in conjunction with our enterprise net interest spread, are indicators of our ability to generate net operating interest income.

•

Total non-performing loans receivable as a percentage of gross loans receivable is an indicator of the performance of our total loan portfolio.

•

Operating margin is an indicator of the profitability of our operations.

•

Compensation and benefits as a percentage of revenue is an indicator of our productivity. This ratio coupled with operating margin is an indicator of our efficiency.

Significant Events in the Second Quarter of 2007

International Expansion

We continued our expansion into international markets with the launch of operations in Norway and the Netherlands. In Norway, we now offer online trading of all Norwegian stocks registered on the Norwegian exchange Oslo Børs, as well as stocks from Scandinavian markets in Sweden, Denmark, Finland, and the American markets. In the Netherlands, we offer Dutch investors direct access to the US stock markets through our global trading platform.

Enhanced Distribution Network

We enhanced our distribution network by opening three new E*TRADE Financial centers during the period. With the addition of centers in Charlotte, NC; Houston, TX; and Minneapolis, MN, we increased the number of our nationwide financial centers to a total of 27.

During the second quarter of 2007, despite volatility in the global equity markets and sustained pressure on the domestic real estate market, we continued to strengthen our financial performance. Total net revenue and net

income increased 9% and 2%, respectively, when compared to the corresponding period in the prior year. We believe the investments we have made in marketing, operations and service are driving organic growth in customer cash and deposits and margin receivables, which are the primary drivers of our increase in net income. The decrease in operating margin to 39% in the second quarter of 2007 from 43% when compared to the same period in the prior year is due primarily to $35.1 million in expense recorded for certain legal and regulatory matters⁽¹⁾.

Net operating interest income after provision for loan losses increased 15% to $384.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, compared with the same period in 2006. Net operating interest income benefited from increases in customer cash and deposits, which increased $7.8 billion compared to the same period in 2006. The increase in customer cash and deposits resulted from organic growth, primarily in our new Complete Savings Account, which was launched at the end of 2006. This new product has driven meaningful growth in cash from new and existing customers. In addition, customers who utilized this new product tended to engage more broadly with our other products and services.

The increase in total assets was attributable primarily to an increase of $5.1 billion in loans receivable, net. The increase in loans receivable, net was due principally to growth in our real estate loan portfolio, specifically first lien real estate loans. During the second quarter of 2007, we focused on growing our first lien real estate loan portfolio, allowing our consumer loan and second lien real estate portfolios to decline. Enterprise interest-earning assets were $58.7 billion at June 30, 2007, an increase of $9.2 billion from December 31, 2006, which was related primarily to the increase in loans, net and margin receivables.

Retail deposits and customer payables were $33.9 billion at June 30, 2007, up 14% or $4.1 billion compared to December 31, 2006. Retail deposits and customer payables are two of our lowest cost sources of funding and are important contributors to our net operating interest income growth. The increase during the period was due primarily to growth in the Complete Savings Account.

EARNINGS OVERVIEW

Net income increased 2% to $159.1 million and 10% to $328.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2006. This increase was a result of strong growth in retail deposits and customer payables, which are the primary funding source for interest-earning assets.

We report corporate interest income and corporate interest expense separately from operating interest income and operating interest expense. We believe reporting these two items separately provides a clearer picture

of the financial performance of our operations than would a presentation that combined these two items. Our operating interest income and operating interest expense is generated from the operations of the Company and is a broad indicator of our success in our banking, lending and balance sheet management businesses. Our corporate debt, which is the primary source of our corporate interest expense, has been used primarily to finance acquisitions, such as Harrisdirect and BrownCo, and generally has not been downstreamed to any of our operating subsidiaries.

Similarly, we report gain on sales and impairment of investments separately from gain on sales of loans and securities, net. We believe reporting these two items separately provides a clearer picture of the financial performance of our operations than would a presentation that combined these two items. Gain on sales of loans and securities, net are the result of activities in our operations, namely our lending and balance sheet management businesses. Gain on sales and impairment of investments relates to historical equity investments of the Company at the corporate level and are not related to the ongoing business of our operating subsidiaries.

The following sections describe in detail the changes in key operating factors and other changes and events that have affected our consolidated net revenue, expense excluding interest, other income (expense) and income tax expense.

Net operating interest income after provision for loan losses continues to be our largest source of revenue and represents 58% of total net revenue for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2007. This reflects our focus on retaining retail customer cash and deposits and retail credit balances. 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 table below presents each revenue component as a percentage of total net revenue.

Institutional commission revenue represented 6% of total net revenue for both the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, and 6% and 7% for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Net Operating Interest Income after Provision for Loan Losses

Net operating interest income after provision for loan losses increased 15% to $384.1 million and 16% to $753.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2006. The increase in net operating interest income was due primarily to growth in enterprise interest-earning assets, specifically loans, net. Average loans, net as a percentage of average enterprise interest-earning assets increased 8% to 54% and 6% to 53% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2006.

Includes interest earned on average customer assets of $3.9 billion and $3.5 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, held by parties outside E*TRADE Financial, including third party money market funds and sweep deposit accounts at unaffiliated financial institutions. Other consists of net operating interest income earned on average stock conduit assets of $2.4 million and $591.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Average enterprise interest-earning assets increased 31% to $57.7 billion and 29% to $55.3 billion for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2006. Average loans, net grew 52% to $31.0 billion and 48% to $29.6 billion for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2006. Average loans, net grew as a result of our focus on growing real estate loan products.

Average enterprise interest-bearing liabilities increased 33% to $54.9 billion and 31% to $52.5 billion for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2006. The increase in average enterprise interest-bearing liabilities was primarily in retail deposits. Average retail deposits increased 35% to $26.8 billion and 36% to $25.7 billion for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, compared to the same period in 2006. Increases in average retail deposits were driven by growth in the Complete Savings Account.

Enterprise net interest spread decreased by 20 basis points to 2.71% and 18 basis points to 2.72% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2006. This decrease was primarily the result of a challenging interest rate environment throughout the past 12 months, during which the yield curve remained relatively flat to inverted.

Provision for Loan Losses

Provision for loan losses increased 193% to $30.0 million and 150% to $51.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2006. The increase in the provision for loan losses was related primarily to the growth in our second lien real estate loan portfolio and the increase in delinquent loans during the period. While our credit standards have remained strong, we anticipate upward trends in delinquencies and charge-offs compared to 2006 as a result of the continued seasoning of our second lien real estate loan portfolio and the current instability in the overall consumer credit market. The provision for loan losses is expected to increase in future periods based on the seasoning of the portfolio and the increase in delinquencies and charge-offs. Further deterioration in the consumer credit market could drive an additional increase in the provision for loan losses.

Commission

Retail and institutional commission revenue increased 1% to $169.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, compared to the same period in 2006 and decreased 4% to $328.8 million for six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to the same period in 2006. The primary factors that affect our retail commission revenue are DARTs and average commission per trade, which is impacted by both trade types and the mix between our domestic and international businesses. Each business has a different pricing structure, unique to its customer base and local market practices, and as a result, a change in the relative number of executed trades in these businesses impacts average commission per trade. Each business also has different trade types (e.g. equities, options, fixed income, exchange-traded funds, contract for difference and mutual funds) that can have different commission rates. As a result, changes in the mix of trade types within either of these businesses may impact average commission per trade. Institutional commission revenue is also impacted by negotiated rates, which differ by customer. Our institutional customers are provided with global execution and settlement services as well as worldwide access to research provided by third parties in exchange for commissions based on negotiated rates.

DARTs increased 2% to 169,122 for the three months ended June 30, 2007, compared to the same period in 2006 and decreased 2% to 169,571 for the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to the same period in 2006. Our U.S. DART volume decreased 1% and 6% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2006, driven by changing market conditions and decreased trading activities. Our international DARTs grew by 20% and 25% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2006, driven entirely by organic growth. Our international operations continue to be a strong growth contributor within our retail trading business, and we believe that over time they will become a significant component of our entire business. In addition, option-related DARTs further increased as a percentage of our total U.S. DARTs and now represent 15% of U.S. trading volume versus 12% a year ago.

Average commission per trade decreased 2% to $12.03 and 2% to $11.96 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2006. The decrease was primarily a function of the mix of customers. Main Street Investors, who generally have a higher commission per trade, traded less during the period which resulted in a heavier weighting of Active Traders, who generally have a lower commission per trade.

Fees and Service Charges

During the first quarter of 2007, the Company re-defined the line item “Service charges and fees” by reclassifying certain fee-like revenue items formerly reported in “Other revenue” into the “Service charges and fees” line item, now called “Fees and service charges.” The fee-like revenue streams moved include payment for order flow, foreign currency margin revenue, 12b-1 fees after rebates, fixed income product revenues and management fee revenue.

Fees and service charges increased 13% to $65.4 million and 8% to $124.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2006. This increase was due to an increase in our advisor management fees, mutual fund fees, order flow payment and CDO management fees, partially offset by a decrease in account maintenance fees and mortgage servicing fees. We expect our account maintenance fee income to continue to decline over time as we have fewer customers who are subject to the fee; however, we expect our advisory management fee income, which is not currently a significant portion of fees and service charges, to increase over time as we focus on growing this product.

Principal Transactions

Principal transactions decreased 12% to $27.8 million and 7% to $57.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2006. The decrease in principal transactions resulted from lower trading volumes as well as a decrease in the average revenue earned per trade. Our principal transactions revenue is influenced by overall trading volumes, the number of stocks for which we act as a market maker, the trading volumes of those specific stocks and the performance of our proprietary trading activities.

Gain on Sales of Loans and Securities, Net

Gain on sales of loans and securities, net decreased 52% to $5.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 compared to the same period in 2006 and remained flat at $22.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to the same period in 2006, as shown in the following table (dollars in thousands):

The decrease in the total gain on sales of loans and securities, net during the three months ended June 30, 2007 was due primarily to a decrease in gain on sales of securities, net compared to the same period in 2006. The decrease in the total gain on sales of loans and securities, net during the six months ended June 30, 2007 was due primarily to a decrease in gain on sales of originated loans, partially offset by an increase in gain on sales of securities compared to the same period in 2006.

Other Revenue

Other revenue increased 21% to $11.1 million and 23% to $20.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2006. The increase in other revenue was due to an increase in fees earned in connection with distribution of shares during initial public offerings and software consulting fees from our Corporate Services business.

Percentage not meaningful

Expense excluding interest increased 15% to $402.2 million and 10% to $776.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2006. The increase in expense excluding interest was driven primarily by $35.1 million in expense recorded for certain legal and regulatory matters, which is reflected in the other line item within total expense excluding interest.

Compensation and Benefits

Compensation and benefits decreased 5% to $119.1 million and remained relatively flat at 1% to $242.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2006. The decrease for the three months ended June 30, 2007 compared to the same period in 2006 resulted primarily from lower incentive based compensation. We believe compensation and benefits as a percentage of revenue is a measure of our efficiency and the most relevant metric to assess this expense. This ratio declined to 18% and 19% for the three and six months ending June 30, 2007, respectively, compared to 21% and 20% for the same periods in 2006.

Clearing and Servicing

Clearing and servicing expense increased 16% to $74.2 million and 11% to $141.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2006. This increase is due primarily to higher loan balances during the period, which resulted in higher servicing costs.

Advertising and Market Development

Advertising and market development expense increased 18% to $35.9 million and 25% to $81.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2006. This increase is a result of expanded efforts to promote our products and services to the value-driven mass affluent customer.

Communications

Communications expense decreased 7% to $25.8 million and 12% to $52.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2006. The decrease is due to higher communications expenses in 2006 to our newly acquired customers from Harrisdirect and BrownCo.

Occupancy and Equipment

Occupancy and equipment increased 12% to $22.8 million and 13% to $46.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2006. The increase is due primarily to opening new and expanding existing customer service centers.

Other

Other expenses increased 179% to $70.4 million and 83% to $103.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2006. The increase is due primarily to $35.1 million in expense recorded for certain legal and regulatory matters.

Other Income (Expense)

Other income (expense) decreased to an expense of $20.4 million and to an expense of $28.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to the same periods in 2006, as shown in the following table (dollars in thousands):


	Three Months Ended June 30,						Variance					Six Months Ended June 30,						Variance

Percentage not meaningful

Total other income (expense) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 primarily consisted of corporate interest expense resulting from the senior notes and mandatory convertible notes held by the Company. During the six months ended June 30, 2007, we sold our investments in E*TRADE Australia and E*TRADE Korea, which resulted in $17.3 million and $37.0 million in gain on sales and impairment of investments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense from continuing operations decreased 4% to $81.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, compared to the same period in 2006 and increased 7% to $174.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to the same period in 2006. The increase in income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to the same period in prior year was related to the increase in pre-tax income over the comparable period. Our effective tax rates for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 were 34.7% and 35.3%, respectively. The decrease in our rate is principally due to the increasing tax benefit received on our tax exempt investment portfolio.

Our retail segment generates revenue from trading, investing, banking and lending relationships with retail customers. These relationships essentially drive five sources of revenue: net operating interest income; commission; fees and service charges; gain on sales of loans and securities, net; and other revenue. Other revenue includes results from our stock plan administration products and services, as we ultimately service retail customers through these corporate relationships. Our geographically dispersed retail accounts grew 6% from June 30, 2006 to June 30, 2007. We believe this growth is a result of the investments we have made in marketing, operations and service. As of June 30, 2007, we had approximately 3.7 million active investing and trading accounts and 1.0 million active deposit and lending accounts.

The increase in retail segment income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to the same periods in 2006 was due to an increase in net operating income after provision for loan losses slightly offset by a decrease in gains on sales of loans and securities, net.

Retail net operating interest income after provision for loan losses increased 10% to $250.5 million and 10% to $478.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2006. This increase was driven by growth in customer cash and deposits, which generally translate into a lower cost of funds. The growth in customer cash and deposits was largely the result of the growth in the Complete Savings Account.

Retail commission revenue increased slightly to $128.2 million and decreased 5% to $251.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2006. The decrease in commission revenue was primarily the result of lower trading volumes in the overall domestic equity market. Slightly offsetting this decline was an increase in our international commissions where DARTs increased 25% from 22,475 to 28,146 for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to the same period in 2006.

Retail segment expense increased 5% to $251.0 million and 5% to $499.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2006. This increase related primarily to our increased marketing spend as we expanded efforts to promote our products and services to the value-driven mass affluent customer.

Institutional

Institutional segment income decreased 20% to $57.2 million and increased 14% to $156.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2006, as shown in the following table (dollars in thousands, except for key metrics):

Percentage not meaningful

Our institutional segment generates earnings from balance sheet management activities, market-making and global execution and settlement services. Balance sheet management activities include purchasing loan receivables from the retail segment as well as third parties, and leveraging these loans and retail customer cash and deposit relationships to generate additional net operating interest income. Retail trading order flow is leveraged by the institutional segment to generate additional revenue for the Company.

Net operating interest income after provision for loan losses increased 26% to $133.6 million and 29% to $275.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to the same periods in 2006. These increases primarily were a result of growth in interest-earning assets, which are funded primarily by retail customer cash and deposit balances. These customer balances were kept on-balance sheet as a low-cost source of funding and then utilized by the institutional segment either to purchase interest-earning assets or pay down wholesale liabilities.

Fee and service charges revenue increased 32% to $9.9 million and 21% to $17.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2006. The increase is related to higher CDO management fees.

Gain (loss) on sales of loans and securities, net decreased $4.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 compared to the same period in 2006 and increased $5.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to the same period in 2006. We evaluate our portfolio of securities available-for-sale in light of changing market conditions and where appropriate, take steps intended to optimize our overall economic position. Based on this evaluation, we decided to sell certain securities, which resulted in a loss of $2.0 million and a gain of $10.4 million in gain (loss) on sales of loans and securities, net for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively.

Total institutional segment expense increased 33% to $153.8 million and 19% to $282.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2006 and was due primarily to additional expense recorded for certain legal and regulatory matters.

During the first quarter of 2007, we re-presented our balance sheet to report margin receivables and customer payables directly on the face of the balance sheet. The remaining components of brokerage receivables and brokerage payables are now reported in the “Other assets” and “Accounts payable, accrued and other liabilities” line items, respectively.

The margin receivables balance is a component of the margin debt balance, which is reported as a key retail metric of $7.5 billion and $7.0 billion at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. The total margin debt balance is summarized as follows (dollars in thousands):


	June 30, 2007		December 31, 2006
Margin receivables	$	7,399,916	$	6,828,448
Margin held by third parties and other		118,766		174,652

Margin debt	$	7,518,682	$	7,003,100

The increase in total assets was primarily the result of growth in loans receivable, net and available-for-sale mortgage-backed and investment securities. The growth in available-for-sale mortgage-backed and investment securities was driven primarily by growth in mortgage-backed securities. The growth in loans receivable, net was driven primarily by growth in first lien real estate loans. For this growth, the loans were originated, on average, 9 months prior to our purchase and typically include early payment default protection for up to 1 month.

The increase in total liabilities primarily was attributable to the increase in deposits and securities sold under agreements to repurchase and other borrowings. The $3.7 billion increase in deposits was due primarily to the growth in the Complete Savings Account. The increase in securities sold under agreements to repurchase and other borrowings contributed to the growth of the loans receivable, net.

Total loans receivable, net	$	31,483,530		$	26,372,697		19	%

Loans receivable, net increased 19% to $31.5 billion at June 30, 2007 from $26.4 billion at December 31, 2006. We continue to focus on our growth in first lien real estate loans while allowing our consumer loans to decline. We anticipate that our first lien real estate loan portfolio will continue to increase over time, and we believe this will improve our credit risk profile. We expect consumer loans to continue to decline as we no longer originate recreational vehicle, marine and auto loans.

⁽¹⁾

The HELOC and HEIL portfolio is primarily second lien loans on residential real estate properties. We also hold the first lien position on the same residential real estate property for less than 1% of the loans in this portfolio.

In recent months, there has been considerable attention in the financial media regarding rising delinquencies and default rates in the sub-prime⁽¹⁾ lending market. As a general matter, we do not originate or purchase sub-prime loans to hold on our balance sheet; however, in the normal course of purchasing large pools of real estate loans, we invariably end up acquiring a de minimis amount of these loans. As of June 30, 2007, sub-prime loans represented less than one-fifth of one percent of our total loan portfolio.

During the first quarter of 2007, we entered into a credit default swap (“CDS”) on $4.0 billion of our first-lien residential real estate loan portfolio. A CDS provides, for a fee, an assumption by a third party of a portion of the credit risk related to the underlying loans. The CDS we entered into provides protection for losses in excess of 10 basis points, but not to exceed approximately 75 basis points. In addition, our regulatory risk-weighted assets were reduced as a result of this transaction because we transferred a portion of our credit risk to an unaffiliated third party.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is management’s estimate of credit losses inherent in our loan portfolio as of the balance sheet date. The estimate of the allowance for loan losses is based on a variety of factors, including the composition and quality of the portfolio; delinquency levels and trends; probable expected losses for the next twelve months; current and historical charge-off and loss experience; current industry charge-off and loss experience; the condition of the real estate market and geographic concentrations within the loan portfolio; the interest rate climate as it affects adjustable-rate loans; and general economic conditions. Determining the adequacy of the allowance is complex and requires judgment by management about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Subsequent evaluations of the loan portfolio, in light of the factors then prevailing, may result in significant changes in the allowance for loan losses in future periods. We believe our allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2007 is representative of probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date.

In determining the allowance for loan losses, we allocate a portion of the allowance to various loan products based on an analysis of individual loans and pools of loans. However, the entire allowance is available to absorb credit losses inherent in the total loan portfolio as of the balance sheet date.

The following table presents the allowance for loan losses by major loan category (dollars in thousands):


	Consumer & Other				Real Estate				Total
	Allowance		Allowance as % of Consumer and Other Loans Receivable		Allowance		Allowance as % of Real Estate Loans Receivable		Allowance		Allowance as % of Total Loans Receivable
June 30, 2007	$	22,060	0.70	%	$	53,644	0.19	%	$	75,704	0.24	%

Defined as borrowers with FICO scores less than 620 at the time of origination.

Losses are recognized when it is probable that a loss will be incurred. Our policy is to chargeoff closed-end consumer loans when the loan is 120 days delinquent or when we determine that collection is not probable. For first-lien real estate loans, a charge-off is recognized when we foreclose on the property. For revolving loans and second liens, our policy is to charge-off loans when collection is not probable or the loan has been delinquent for 180 days.

During the six months ended June 30, 2007, the allowance for loan losses increased by $8.1 million from the level at December 31, 2006. The allowance for the real estate loan portfolio increased by $14.2 million, which was due primarily to the seasoning of the portoflio and the increased delinquences and charge-offs compared to 2006. The consumer loan portfolio decreased by $6.1 million, mainly a result of the decline in the size of the portfolio.

Net charge-offs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to the same periods in 2006 increased by $14.7 million and $26.5 million, respectively. The overall increase was primarily due to higher net charge-offs on second lien real estate loans, which was driven by the growth of this portfolio in prior periods and subsequent seasoning of that growth in 2007. In addition, overall pressure in the residential real estate market including slowing home price appreciation or depreciation, rising mortgage interest rates and tighter mortgage lending guidelines across the industry are impacting the mortgage portfolio performance, which could drive additional charge-offs in the future. Annualized net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans receivable, net were 0.29% at June 30, 2007 compared to 0.22% at December 31, 2006.

Nonperforming Assets

We classify loans as nonperforming when full and timely collection of interest or principal becomes uncertain or when they are 90 days past due. The following table shows the comparative data for nonperforming loans and assets (dollars in thousands):


	June 30, 2007		December 31, 2006
Real estate loans	$	163,932	$	66,435
Consumer and other loans		3,501		8,906

Total nonperforming loans		167,433		75,341
Real estate owned (“REO”) and other repossessed assets, net		20,870		12,904

Total nonperforming assets, net	$	188,303	$	88,245

Total nonperforming loans receivable as a percentage of total gross loans receivable		0.53%		0.28%

Total allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total nonperforming loans receivable		45.34%		90.52%

We expect nonperforming loan levels to fluctuate over time due to portfolio growth, portfolio seasoning and resolution through collections, sales or charge-offs. The performance of any loan can be affected by external factors, such as economic conditions or factors particular to the borrower.

During the six months ended June 30, 2007, our nonperforming assets, net increased $100.1 million from $88.2 million at December 31, 2006. The increase was attributed to an increase in nonperforming real estate loans and REO and other repossessed assets, net of $105.5 million, offset by a decrease in nonperforming consumer and other loans of $5.4 million. These trends are primarily the result of our targeted growth in real estate loans as well as the seasoning of the real estate loan acquisitions made in prior periods.

The allowance as a percentage of total nonperforming loans receivable, net decreased from 91% at December 31, 2006 to 45% at June 30, 2007. Our total loan portfolio has shifted towards a larger concentration of first lien real estate loans, where the risk of loss is generally less than the risk of loss on second lien real estate and consumer loans. As such, the total allowance as a percentage of nonperforming assets decreased.

In addition to nonperforming assets in the table above, we monitor loans where a borrower’s past credit history casts doubt on their ability to repay a loan (“Special Mention” loans). Special Mention loans represented $397.1 million, or 1%, and $261.5 million, or 1%, of the total loan portfolio at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively, and are generally secured by real estate assets, reducing the potential loss should they become non-performing. These loans are actively monitored, continue to accrue interest and remain a component of the loans receivable balance. The increase in Special Mention loans was due primarily to an increase in the 30-day delinquency category of real estate loans. We expect migration from this category to more serious delinquency classifications to increase over time consistent with the current instability in the overall consumer credit market.

Available-for-Sale Mortgage-Backed and Investment Securities

Available-for-sale securities are summarized as follows (dollars in thousands):

Total available-for-sale securities	$	16,893,248	$	13,921,983	21	%

Available-for-sale securities represented 27% and 26% of total assets at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. Available-for-sale securities increased 21% to $16.9 billion at June 30, 2007 compared to December 31, 2006, due primarily to the growth in our mortgage-backed securities portfolio. Substantially all mortgage-backed securities backed by U.S. Government sponsored and Federal agencies are “AAA” rated and the majority of the asset-backed securities portfolio consisted of “AA” or higher rated securities. We evaluate our available-for-sale securities in light of changing market conditions and other factors and, where appropriate, take steps intended to improve our overall position. Based on this evaluation, we decided to grow the mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities portfolios, which resulted in an increase of $2.7 billion in these portfolios during the six months ended June 30, 2007.

As interest rates increase, the fair value of fixed-rate available-for-sale securities decreases and vice versa. The fair value of the portfolio will be adversely impacted in the future if long-term interest rates continue to rise. Net unrealized gains and losses in available-for-sale securities are included in shareholders’ equity as accumulated other comprehensive income or loss, net of tax.

Deposits represented 47% and 49% of total liabilities at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. Deposits increased $3.7 billion to $27.8 billion at June 30, 2007 compared to December 31, 2006, driven by a $3.7 billion increase in money market and savings accounts.

The increase in deposits is primarily the result of the growth in our Complete Savings Account. This new product has driven measurable growth in cash from new and existing customers. Deposits generally provide us the benefit of lower interest costs, compared with wholesale funding alternatives.

The deposits balance is a component of the total customer cash and deposits balance reported as a customer activity metric of $37.9 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The total customer cash and deposits balance is summarized as follows (dollars in thousands):

Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase and Other Borrowings

Securities sold under agreements to repurchase and other borrowings are summarized as follows (dollars in thousands):


	June 30, 2007		December 31, 2006		Variance
	June 30, 2007		December 31, 2006		2007 vs. 2006
Securities sold under agreements to repurchase	$	12,435,733	$	9,792,422	27	%

FHLB advances	$	7,174,147	$	4,865,466	47	%
Subordinated debentures		435,830		385,502	13	%
Other		175,124		72,994	140	%

Total other borrowings	$	7,785,101	$	5,323,962	46	%

Securities sold under agreements to repurchase increased by 27% at June 30, 2007 compared to December 31, 2006. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase coupled with FHLB advances are the primary wholesale funding sources of the Bank. The Bank used these wholesale sources along with deposit growth to fund the increase in loans receivable. Other borrowings represented 13% and 11% of total liabilities at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. The increase of $2.5 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2007 was due primarily to an increase in FHLB advances. We actively manage our funding sources and determine the optimal mix based on pricing, liquidity and capacity during each period.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our liquidity and capital resources enable us to fund our operating activities, finance acquisitions and grow our assets. Cash flows are derived from our operations in the retail and institutional segments and our capital market activities. The segment cash flows provide capital to fund growth in our regulated subsidiaries. The Company’s cash and equivalents balance decreased to $1.0 billion for the period ended June 30, 2007.

Corporate Debt

Our current senior debt ratings are Ba2 (positive outlook) by Moody’s Investor Service, BB- (stable) by Standard & Poor’s and BB (high) by Dominion Bond Rating Service (“DBRS”). The Company’s long-term deposit ratings are Baa3 (positive outlook) by Moody’s Investor Service, BB+ (stable) by Standard & Poor’s and BBB (low) by DBRS. A significant change in these ratings may impact the rate and availability of future borrowings.

Liquidity Available from Subsidiaries

Liquidity available to the Company from its subsidiaries, other than Converging Arrows, Inc. (“Converging Arrows”), is limited by regulatory requirements. Converging Arrows is a subsidiary of the parent company. At June 30, 2007, Converging Arrows had $57.1 million of cash and investment securities available as a source of liquidity for the parent company. Converging Arrows is not restricted in its dealings with the parent company and may transfer funds to the parent company without regulatory approval. In addition to Converging Arrows, brokerage and banking subsidiaries may provide liquidity to the parent; however, they are restricted by regulatory guidelines.

E*TRADE Bank is prohibited by regulations from lending to the parent company. At June 30, 2007, E*TRADE Bank had approximately $221.1 million of capital available for dividend declaration without regulatory approval while still maintaining “well capitalized” status. E*TRADE Bank is also required by Office of Thrift Supervision (“OTS”) regulations to maintain tangible capital of at least 1.50% of tangible assets. E*TRADE Bank satisfied this requirement at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006.

Brokerage subsidiaries are required to maintain net capital equal to the greater of $250,000 or 2% of aggregate debit balances arising from customer transactions. At June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, all of our brokerage subsidiaries met their minimum net capital requirements. The Company’s broker-dealer subsidiaries had excess net capital of $686.0 million at June 30, 2007.

Other Sources of Liquidity

We maintain committed financing facilities with banks totaling $250.0 million⁽¹⁾ to meet corporate liquidity needs and $576.0 million in uncommitted financing to meet margin lending needs. There were no outstanding balances, and the full $826.0 million was available under these lines at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006.

⁽¹⁾

The committed financing facility was amended in July 2007, improving the terms and conditions as well as extending the maturity of the credit facility to September 2010. See Note 19—Subsequent Events.

We rely on borrowed funds, such as FHLB advances and securities sold under agreements to repurchase, to provide liquidity for the Bank. At June 30, 2007, the Bank had approximately $10.1 billion in additional borrowing capacity.

Other Liquidity Matters

We currently anticipate that our available cash resources and credit will be sufficient to meet our anticipated working capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12 months. We may need to raise additional funds in order to support more rapid expansion, develop new or enhanced products and services, respond to competitive pressures, acquire businesses or technologies or take advantage of unanticipated opportunities.

SUMMARY OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The preparation of our financial condition and results of operations requires us to make judgments and estimates that may have a significant impact upon the financial results of the Company. We believe that of our significant accounting policies, the following require estimates and assumptions that require complex, subjective judgments by management, which can materially impact reported results: allowance for loan losses and uncollectible margin loans; classification and valuation of certain investments; valuation and accounting for financial derivatives; estimates of effective tax rate; deferred taxes and valuation allowances; and valuation of goodwill and other intangibles. These are more fully described in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The following discussion about our market risk disclosure includes forward-looking statements. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including, but not limited to, those set forth in Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 and as updated in this report. Market risk is our exposure to changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates and equity and commodity prices. Our exposure to interest rate risk is related primarily to interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.

Interest Rate Risk

The management of interest rate risk is essential to profitability. Interest rate risk is our exposure to changes in interest rates. In general, we manage our interest rate risk by balancing variable-rate and fixed-rate assets and liabilities and we utilize derivatives in a way that reduces our overall exposure to changes in interest rates. In recent years, we have managed our interest rate risk to achieve a minimum to moderate risk profile with limited exposure to earnings volatility resulting from interest rate fluctuations. Exposure to interest rate risk requires management to make complex assumptions regarding maturities, market interest rates and customer behavior. Changes in interest rates, including the following, could impact interest income and expense:

•

Interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities may re-price at different times or by different amounts creating a mismatch.

•

The yield curve may flatten or change shape affecting the spread between short- and long-term rates. Widening or narrowing spreads could impact net interest income.

•

Market interest rates may influence prepayments resulting in maturity mismatches. In addition, prepayments could impact yields as premium and discounts amortize.

Exposure to market risk is dependent upon the distribution and composition of interest-earning assets, interest-bearing liabilities and derivatives. The differing risk characteristics of each product are managed to mitigate our exposure to interest rate fluctuations. At June 30, 2007, 93% of our total assets were enterprise interest-earning assets.

At June 30, 2007, approximately 70% of our total assets were residential real estate loans and available-for-sale mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities. The values of these assets are sensitive to changes in interest rates, as well as expected prepayment levels. As interest rates increase, fixed rate residential real estate loans and mortgage-backed securities tend to exhibit lower prepayments. The inverse is true in a falling rate environment.

When real estate loans prepay, unamortized premiums are written off. Depending on the timing of the prepayment, the write-offs of unamortized premiums may result in lower than anticipated yields. E*TRADE Bank’s Asset Liability Committee (“ALCO”) reviews estimates of the impact of changing market rates on loan production volumes and prepayments. This information is incorporated into our interest rate risk management strategy.

We held $161.9 million in trading securities as of June 30, 2007. These securities and the associated interest rate risk are not material to the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Our liability structure consists of transactional deposit relationships, such as savings and money market accounts; certificates of deposit; securities sold under agreements to repurchase; customer payables; wholesale collateralized borrowings from the FHLB and other entities; and long term notes. Our transactional deposit accounts and customer payables tend to be less rate-sensitive than wholesale borrowings. Agreements to repurchase securities and money market accounts re-price as interest rates change. Certificates of deposit re-price over time depending on maturities. FHLB advances and long-term notes generally have fixed rates.

Derivative Financial Instruments

We use derivative financial instruments to help manage our interest rate risk. Interest rate swaps involve the exchange of fixed-rate and variable-rate interest payments between two parties based on a contractual underlying notional amount, but do not involve the exchange of the underlying notional amounts. Option products are utilized primarily to decrease the market value changes resulting from the prepayment dynamics of the mortgage portfolio, as well as to protect against increases in funding costs. The types of options employed include Cap Options (“Caps”) and Floor Options (“Floors”), Payor Swaptions and Receiver Swaptions. Caps mitigate the market risk associated with increases in interest rates while Floors mitigate the risk associated with decreases in market interest rates. Similarly, Payor and Receiver Swaptions mitigate the market risk associated with the respective increases and decreases in interest rates. See derivative financial instruments discussion at Note 7—Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities in Item 1. Consolidated Financial Statements.

For mortgage loans intended to be sold, Interest Rate Lock Commitments (“IRLCs”) are considered derivatives with changes in fair value recorded in earnings. IRLCs are commitments issued to borrowers that lock in an interest rate now for a loan closing in one to three months. These locks, initially recorded with a fair value of zero, will fluctuate in value during the lock period as market interest rates change. See mortgage banking activities discussion at Note 7—Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities in Item 1. Consolidated Financial Statements.

Scenario Analysis

Scenario analysis is an advanced approach to estimating interest rate risk exposure. Under the Net Present Value of Equity (“NPVE”) approach, the present value of all existing assets, liabilities, derivatives and forward commitments are estimated and then combined to produce a NPVE figure. The sensitivity of this value to changes in interest rates is then determined by applying alternative interest rate scenarios, which include, but are not limited to, instantaneous parallel shifts up 100, 200 and 300 basis points and down 100 and 200 basis points. The NPVE method is used at the E*TRADE Bank level and not for the Company. During the first quarter of 2007, E*TRADE Clearing LLC (“ETC”) became a wholly-owned operating subsidiary of E*TRADE Bank.

E*TRADE Bank has 95% and 81% of our enterprise interest-earning assets at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively, and holds 95% and 79% of our enterprise interest-bearing liabilities at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. The sensitivity of NPVE at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006 and the limits established by E*TRADE Bank’s Board of Directors are listed below (dollars in thousands):


Parallel Change in Interest Rates (bps)	Change in NPVE										Board Limit
	June 30, 2007⁽¹⁾					December 31, 2006
	Amount			Percentage		Amount			Percentage
+300	$	(466,608	)	(12	)%	$	(52,325	)	(2	)%	(55	)%
+200	$	(287,178	)	(7	)%	$	(32,680	)	(1	)%	(30	)%
+100	$	(153,897	)	(4	)%	$	(15,303	)	(1	)%	(20	)%

-200	$	(95,405	)	(2	)%	$	(560,142	)	(20	)%	(30	)%

⁽¹⁾

Amounts and percentages include ETC.

Under criteria published by the OTS, E*TRADE Bank’s overall interest rate risk exposure at June 30, 2007 was characterized as “minimum.” We actively manage our interest rate risk positions. As interest rates change, we will re-adjust our strategy and mix of assets, liabilities and derivatives to optimize our position. For example, a 100 basis points increase in rates may not result in a change in value as indicated above. The ALCO monitors E*TRADE Bank’s interest rate risk position.

Other Market Risk

Equity Security Risk

Equity securities risk is the risk of potential loss from investing in public and private equity securities including foreign currency exchange risk. We hold equity securities for investment purposes and in trading securities for market-making purposes. The foreign currency exchange risk associated with these investments is not material to the Company. For investment purposes, we currently hold publicly traded equity securities, in which we had gross unrealized gains of $4.6 million as of June 30, 2007. As each security’s market price fluctuates, we are exposed to risk of a loss with respect to these unrealized gains. See publicly traded equity securities discussion at Note 5—Available-for-Sale Mortgage-Backed and Investment Securities in Item 1. Consolidated Financial Statements.

E*TRADE FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1—ORGANIZATION, BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization—E*TRADE Financial Corporation (together with its subsidiaries, “E*TRADE” or the “Company”) is a global company offering a wide range of financial services to consumers under the brand “E*TRADE Financial.” The Company offers trading, investing, banking and lending products and services to its retail and institutional customers.

Basis of Presentation—The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries. Entities in which the Company holds at least a 20% ownership or in which there are other indicators of significant influence are generally accounted for by the equity method. Entities in which the Company holds less than 20% ownership and does not have the ability to exercise significant influence are generally carried at cost. Intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. The Company evaluates investments including joint ventures, low income housing tax credit partnerships and other limited partnerships to determine if the Company is required to consolidate the entities under the guidance of FASB interpretation No. 46 (Revised 2003), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities-an interpretation of ARB No. 51 (“FIN 46R”).

Certain prior period items in these consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. As discussed in Note 2—Discontinued Operations, the operations of certain businesses have been accounted for as discontinued operations in accordance with the Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. Accordingly, results of operations from prior periods have been reclassified to discontinued operations. Unless noted, discussions herein pertain to the Company’s continuing operations.

These consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are all normal and recurring in nature, necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented, and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of E*TRADE Financial Corporation included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.

The Company reports corporate interest income and expense separately from operating interest income and expense. The Company believes reporting these two items separately provides a clearer picture of the financial performance of the Company’s operations than would a presentation that combined these two items. Operating interest income and expense is generated from the operations of the Company and is a broad indicator of the Company’s success in its banking, lending and balance sheet management businesses. Corporate debt, which is the primary source of the corporate interest expense has been used primarily to finance acquisitions, such as Harrisdirect and BrownCo and generally has not been downstreamed to any of the Company’s operating subsidiaries.

Similarly, the Company reports gain on sales and impairment of investments separately from gain on sales of loans and securities, net. The Company believes reporting these two items separately provides a clearer picture of the financial performance of its operations than would a presentation that combined these two items. Gain on sales of loans and securities, net are the result of activities in the Company’s operations, namely its lending and balance sheet management businesses. Gain on sales and impairment of investments relates to historical equity investments of the Company at the corporate level and are not related to the ongoing business of the Company’s operating subsidiaries.

New Income Statement Reporting Format—During the first quarter of 2007, the Company re-defined the line item “Service charges and fees” by reclassifying certain fee-like revenue items formerly reported in “Other revenue” into the “Service charges and fees” line item, now called “Fees and service charges.” The fee-like revenue streams moved include payment for order flow, foreign exchange margin revenue, 12b-1 fees after rebates, fixed income product revenues and management fee revenue.

New Balance Sheet Reporting Format—During the first quarter of 2007, the Company re-presented its balance sheet to report margin receivables and customer payables directly on the face of the balance sheet. The remaining components of brokerage receivables and brokerage payables are now reported in the “Other assets” and “Accounts payable, accrued and other liabilities” line items, respectively.

Use of Estimates—The financial statements were prepared in accordance with GAAP, which require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and related notes for the periods presented. Actual results could differ from management’s estimates. Material estimates in which management believes near-term changes could reasonably occur include allowance for loan losses and uncollectible margin receivables; classification and valuation of certain investments; valuation and accounting for financial derivatives; estimates of effective tax rates; deferred taxes and valuation allowances; valuation of goodwill and other intangibles; and valuation and expensing of share-based payments.

Financial Statement Descriptions and Related Accounting Policies—Below are descriptions and accounting policies for the Company’s new financial statement categories.

Margin Receivables—Margin receivables represent credit extended to customers and non-customers to finance their purchases of securities by borrowing against securities they currently own. Receivables from non-customers represent credit extended to principal officers and directors of the Company to finance their purchase of securities by borrowing against securities owned by them. Securities owned by customers and non-customers are held as collateral for amounts due on the margin receivables, the value of which is not reflected in the consolidated balance sheet. In many cases, the Company is permitted to sell or re-pledge these securities held as collateral and use the securities to enter into securities lending transactions, to collateralize borrowings or for delivery to counterparties to cover customer short positions. At June 30, 2007, the fair value of securities that the Company received as collateral in connection with margin receivables and stock borrowing activities, where the Company is permitted to sell or re-pledge the securities, was approximately $10.4 billion. Of this amount, $2.3 billion had been pledged or sold at June 30, 2007 in connection with securities loans, bank borrowings and deposits with clearing organizations.

Customer Payables—Customer payables to customers and non-customers represent credit balances in customer accounts arising from deposits of funds and sales of securities and other funds pending completion of securities transactions. The Company pays interest on certain customer payables balances.

Fees and Service Charges—Fees and service charges consist of account maintenance fees, servicing fee income, payments for order flow, foreign exchange margin revenue, 12b-1 fees after rebates, fixed income product revenues and management fee revenue. Account maintenance fees are charges to the customer either quarterly or annually and are accrued as earned. Payments for order flow are accrued in the same period in which the related securities transactions are completed or related services are rendered.

Other Revenue—Other revenue primarily consists of stock plan administration services and other revenue ancillary to the Company’s retail customer transactions. Stock plan administration services are recognized in accordance with applicable accounting guidance, including Statement of Position 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition.

New Accounting Standards—Below are the new accounting pronouncements that relate to activities in which the Company is engaged.

FIN 48—Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an interpretation of FASB Statement 109

In July 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“FIN 48”), which became effective for the Company on January 1, 2007. The interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-

likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The amount recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company’s reassessment of its tax positions in accordance with FIN 48 did not have a material impact on the results of operations, financial condition or liquidity. The impact of adoption was a $14.9 million reduction to beginning retained earnings. For additional information regarding the adoption of FIN 48, see Note 13—Income Taxes.

SFAS No. 156—Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets

In March 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets, an amendment of SFAS No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities. This statement establishes, among other things, the accounting for all separately recognized servicing assets and liabilities. This statement amends SFAS No. 140 to require that all separately recognized servicing assets and liabilities be initially measured at fair value. The Company adopted this statement on January 1, 2007 and the impact of adoption was not material to the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

SFAS No. 157—Fair Value Measurements

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. This statement establishes, among other things, a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure requirements as they relate to fair value measurements. The statement is effective at the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007 or January 1, 2008 for the Company. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

SFAS No. 159—The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. This Statement provides an option under which a company may irrevocably elect fair value as the initial and subsequent measurement attribute for certain financial assets and liabilities. This fair value option will be available on a contract-by-contract basis with changes in fair value recognized in earnings as those changes occur. The statement is effective at the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007 or January 1, 2008 for the Company. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

NOTE 2—DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

In December 2005, the Company decided to sell its professional agency business, E*TRADE Professional Trading, LLC. The Company executed and settled this transaction during the year ended December 31, 2006 and recorded approximately $2.6 million in gain, net of tax, on the sale.

The following table summarizes the results of discontinued operations for the agency trading business (dollars in thousands):

The Company incurred charges of $(0.5) million and $0.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, related to costs for exiting those facilities. The total charge for this exit activity was $29.9 million, all of which has been recorded in the retail segment. The Company expects to incur charges in future periods as it periodically evaluates the estimates made in connection with this activity; however, the Company does not expect those costs to be significant.

The Company does not believe that any individual unrealized loss as of June 30, 2007 represents an other-than-temporary impairment. The majority of the unrealized losses on mortgage-backed securities are attributable to changes in interest rates and are not reflective of deterioration in the credit quality of the issuer and/or securitization. Substantially all mortgage-backed securities backed by U.S. Government sponsored and Federal agencies are “AAA” rated and have unrealized losses due to changes in market interest rates. As market interest rates increase, the fair value of fixed-rate securities will decrease. The Company has the intent and ability to hold these securities until the market value recovers or the securities mature. Municipal bonds, corporate bonds and other debt securities are evaluated by reviewing the credit-worthiness of the issuer and general market conditions. The majority of the asset-backed securities portfolio consisted of “AA” or higher rated securities. Based on its evaluation, the Company recorded other-than-temporary impairment charges for its asset-backed securities of $2.8 million and $3.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007. The Company recorded no impairment charges for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006, respectively.

During the first quarter of 2007, the Company entered into a credit default swap (“CDS”) on $4.0 billion of its first-lien residential real estate loan portfolio. A CDS provides, for a fee, an assumption by a third party of a portion of the credit risk related to the underlying loans. The CDS the Company entered into provides protection for losses in excess of 10 basis points, but not to exceed approximately 75 basis points. In addition, the Company’s regulatory risk-weighted assets were reduced as a result of this transaction because it transferred a portion of the Company’s credit risk to an unaffiliated third party.

NOTE 7—ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

The Company enters into derivative transactions to protect against the risk of market price or interest rate movements on the value of certain assets, liabilities and future cash flows. The Company is also required to recognize certain contracts and commitments as derivatives when the characteristics of those contracts and commitments meet the definition of a derivative as promulgated by SFAS No. 133, as amended.

Fair Value Hedges

Overview of Fair Value Hedges

The Company uses a combination of interest rate swaps, forward-starting swaps and purchased options on swaps, interest rate caps and interest rate floors to offset its exposure to changes in value of certain fixed-rate assets and liabilities. Changes in the fair value of the derivatives and the related hedged items are recognized currently in earnings. To the extent that the hedge is ineffective, the changes in the fair values will not offset and the difference, or hedge ineffectiveness, is reflected in other expense excluding interest in the consolidated statement of income.

The following table summarizes information related to financial derivatives in fair value hedge relationships (dollars in thousands):

Purchased interest rate options were used to hedge mortgage loans and mortgage-backed securities.

⁽²⁾

Swaptions are options to enter swaps starting on a given day.

De-designated Fair Value Hedges

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, certain fair value hedges were de-designated; therefore, hedge accounting was discontinued during those periods. The net gain or loss on the underlying transactions being hedged is amortized to operating interest expense or operating interest income over the original forecasted period at the time of de-designation. Changes in the fair value of these derivative instruments after de-designation of fair value hedge accounting were recorded in the gain on sales of loans and securities, net line item in the consolidated statement of income.

Cash Flow Hedges

Overview of Cash Flow Hedges

The Company uses a combination of interest rate swaps, forward-starting swaps and purchased options on caps and floors to hedge the variability of future cash flows associated with existing variable-rate liabilities and assets and forecasted issuances of liabilities. These cash flow hedge relationships are treated as effective hedges as long as the future issuances of liabilities remain probable and the hedges continue to meet the requirements of SFAS No. 133, as amended. The Company also enters into interest rate swaps to hedge changes in the future variability of cash flows of certain investment securities resulting from changes in a benchmark interest rate. Additionally, the Company enters into forward purchase and sale agreements, which are considered cash flow hedges, when the terms of the commitments exactly match the terms of the securities purchased or sold.

Changes in the fair value of derivatives that hedge cash flows associated with repurchase agreements, FHLB advances and HELOC are reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss as unrealized gains or losses. The amounts in accumulated other comprehensive loss are then included in operating interest expense or operating interest income as a yield adjustment during the same periods in which the related interest on the funding effects earnings. During the upcoming twelve months, the Company expects to include a pre-tax amount of approximately $43.4 million of net unrealized gains that are currently reflected in accumulated other comprehensive loss in operating interest expense as a yield adjustment in the same periods in which the related items affect earnings.

The following table summarizes information related to the Company’s financial derivatives in cash flow hedge relationships, hedging variable-rate assets and liabilities and the forecasted issuances of liabilities (dollars in thousands):

Under SFAS No. 133, as amended, the Company is required to record the fair value of gains and losses on derivatives designated as cash flow hedges in accumulated other comprehensive income in the consolidated balance sheet. In addition, during the normal course of business, the Company terminates certain interest rate swaps and options.

The following tables show: 1) amounts recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss related to derivative instruments accounted for as cash flow hedges; 2) the notional amounts and fair values of derivatives terminated for the periods presented; and 3) the amortization of terminated interest rate swaps included in operating interest expense and operating interest income (dollars in thousands):

Hedge Ineffectiveness

In accordance with SFAS No. 133, as amended, the Company recognizes hedge ineffectiveness on both fair value and cash flow hedge relationships. The amount of ineffectiveness recorded in earnings for cash flow hedges is equal to the excess of the cumulative change in the fair value of the actual derivative over the cumulative change in the fair value of a hypothetical derivative which is created to match the exact terms of the underlying instruments being hedged. These amounts are reflected in the other expense excluding interest line item in the consolidated statement of income. Cash flow and fair value ineffectiveness is re-measured on a quarterly basis. The following table summarizes income (expense) recognized by the Company as fair value and cash flow hedge ineffectiveness (dollars in thousands):

Mortgage Banking Activities

The Company enters into commitments to originate loans whereby the interest rate on the loan is determined prior to funding. These commitments are referred to as Interest Rate Lock Commitments (“IRLCs”). IRLCs on loans that the Company intends to sell are considered to be derivatives and are, therefore, recorded at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in earnings. For purposes of determining fair value, the Company performs a net present value analysis of the anticipated cash flows associated with these IRLCs. The net present value analysis performed excludes the market value associated with the anticipated sale of servicing rights related to each loan commitment. The fair value of these IRLCs was a $0.2 million asset and a $0.02 million liability at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively.

The Company also designates fair value relationships of closed loans held-for-sale against a combination of mortgage forwards and short treasury positions. Short treasury relationships are economic hedges, rather than fair value or cash flow hedges. Short treasury positions are marked-to-market, but do not receive hedge accounting treatment under SFAS No. 133, as amended. The mark-to-market of the mortgage forwards is included in the net change of the IRLCs and the related hedging instruments. The fair value of the mark-to-market on closed loans was a $0.1 million and $1.7 million asset at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively.

IRLCs, as well as closed loans held-for-sale, expose the Company to interest rate risk. The Company manages this risk by selling mortgages or mortgage-backed securities on a forward basis referred to as forward sale agreements. Changes in the fair value of these derivatives are included as gain on sales of loans and securities, net in the consolidated statement of income. The net change in IRLCs, closed loans, mortgage forwards and the short treasury positions generated net losses of $0.7 million and $2.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively. The net change in IRLCs, closed loans, mortgage forwards and the short treasury positions generated net losses of $0.7 million and $0.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, respectively.

NOTE 9—ASSET SECURITIZATION

Collateralized Debt Obligations (“CDO”)

On April 12, 2007, an unrelated financial advisor (“Advisor”) transferred $388.9 million in asset-backed securities to E*TRADE ABS CDO VI, Ltd. (“CDO VI”). The Company had previously transferred $46.9 million in asset-backed securities to the Advisor for transfer to CDO VI. Additionally, the Company utilized a warehouse line with the Advisor to purchase $342.0 million of asset-backed securities that were also transferred to CDO VI. Concurrent with these transfers, CDO VI sold total beneficial interests of $420.0 million to investors in the form of senior notes, subordinated notes and preference shares collateralized by the asset-backed securities. Additional purchases of asset-backed securities were made in open market transactions and transferred to CDO VI within 60 days following the closing date. As of June 30, 2007, 100% of the pool of underlying securities had been transferred into CDO VI.

The CDO VI transaction is a managed deal whereby the portfolio manager, ETGAM, is appointed to actively manage the collateral of the CDO. Because CDO VI is a managed deal, it is a special purpose entity and not a qualified special purpose entity. The CDO VI transaction was accounted for as a sale in accordance with SFAS No. 140.

The Company purchased $3.6 million of preference shares in CDO VI. Retained interests are subordinate to the notes sold by CDO VI and on an equal standing with the preference shares purchased by other preference share investors in CDO VI. Neither CDO VI itself nor the investors in the beneficial interests sold by CDO VI have recourse to the Company.

The Company reviewed CDO VI to determine if consolidation was necessary under the requirements of FIN 46R. The calculation of CDO VI’s beneficial interests indicated that the Company was not the recipient of the majority of the potential benefits or losses of the deal. Therefore, the Company is not the primary beneficiary of the transaction and is not required to consolidate the CDO.

The following table summarizes the asset-backed securities transferred to CDO VI at closing, the amount of the cash proceeds and the preference shares purchased by the Company (dollars in millions):


CDO	Transaction Date	Asset-Backed Securities Transferred to CDO at closing								Preference Shares Purchased by E*TRADE
CDO	Transaction Date	*ETRADE**		Independent Investment Advisor		Total		Proceeds		Amount

NOTE 11—OTHER BORROWINGS

ETBH raises capital through the formation of trusts which sell trust preferred stock in the capital markets. The capital securities must be redeemed in whole at the due date, which is generally 30 years after issuance. Each trust issued Floating Rate Cumulative Preferred Securities, at par with a liquidation amount of $1,000 per capital security. The trusts use the proceeds from the sale of issuances to purchase Floating Rate Junior Subordinated Debentures issued by ETBH, which guarantees the trust obligations and contributes proceeds from the sale of its subordinated debentures to E*TRADE Bank in the form of a capital contribution.

During January, March and May 2007, ETBH formed three trusts, ETBH Capital Trust XXVIII, ETBH Capital Trust XXIX and ETBH Capital Trust XXX, respectively. Information related to these trusts is shown below (dollars in thousands):


Trusts	Face Value		Maturity Date	Annual Interest Rate
ETBH Capital Trust XXVIII	$	25,000	2037	2.00% above 3-month LIBOR

NOTE 13—INCOME TAXES

Effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted FIN 48. As a result of the implementation the Company recognized a $14.9 million increase to its liability for unrecognized tax benefits, which was accounted for as a reduction to the beginning balance of retained earnings. The total amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits as of January 1, 2007 was $150.4 million. Of this total amount, $51.6 million (net of the federal benefit on state issues) represents the amount of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would favorably affect the effective income tax rate in future periods. This amount increased to $54.5 million for the period ended June 30, 2007. The gross unrecognized tax benefit was reduced to $78.4 million at June 30, 2007 principally due to tax accounting method change requests filed with the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”).

The following table summarizes the tax years that are either currently under audit or remain open under the statute of limitations and subject to examination by the major tax jurisdictions in which the Company operates:


Jurisdiction		Open Tax Year
Canada		2001 – 2006
United Kingdom		2005 – 2006
United States		2003 – 2006
Various States⁽¹⁾		1996 – 2006

⁽¹⁾

Includes California, Georgia, New York and Virginia.

It is likely that certain examinations may be settled or the statute of limitations could expire with regards to other tax filings, in the next twelve months. In addition, proposed legislation could favorably impact certain of the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits. Such events would generally reduce the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits, either because the tax positions are sustained or because the Company agrees to the disallowance, by as much as $12.7 million, substantially all of which could affect the Company’s total tax provision or the effective tax rate.

The Company’s continuing practice is to recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to income tax matters in income tax expense. After the adoption of FIN 48, the Company has total gross reserves of $15.1 million for the payment of interest as of January 1, 2007. The total gross reserves were reduced to $7.8 million as of June 30, 2007 due to the filing of tax accounting method change requests with the IRS.

There were not any shares issuable under convertible subordinated notes excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007.

The following options to purchase shares of common stock have not been included in the computation of diluted earnings per share as their effect would be anti-dilutive (shares in thousands, except exercise price ranges):

NOTE 15—SHARE REPURCHASES

On April 18, 2007, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized an additional $250.0 million common stock repurchase program (the “April 2007 Plan”). The April 2007 Plan is open-ended and allows for the repurchase of common stock on the open market, in private transactions or a combination of both.

During 2007, the Company repurchased common stock under the April 2007 Plan and a $200.0 million repurchase program approved by the Board in December 2004 (the “December 2004 Plan”). During the three months ended June 30, 2007, the Company completed the December 2004 Plan. The table below shows the timing and impact of the repurchases during the six months ended June 30, 2007 (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts):


Three Months Ended	Total Number of Shares Purchased	Aggregate Price		Average Price Paid per Share		Maximum Dollar Value of Shares That May Yet be Purchased Under the April 2007 and December 2004 Plans

NOTE 16—REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS

Registered Broker-Dealers

The Company’s U.S. broker-dealer subsidiaries are subject to the Uniform Net Capital Rule (the “Rule”) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 administered by the SEC, the NYSE and NASD, which requires the maintenance of minimum net capital. The minimum net capital requirements can be met under either the Aggregate Indebtedness method or the Alternative method. Under the Aggregate Indebtedness method, a broker-dealer is required to maintain minimum net capital of the greater of 6²/3% of its aggregate indebtedness, as defined, or a minimum dollar amount. Under the Alternative method, a broker-dealer is required to maintain net capital equal to the greater of $250,000 or 2% of aggregate debit balances arising from customer transactions.

The Company uses both the Aggregate Indebtedness and the Alternative methods to compute net capital. The method used depends on the U.S. individual broker-dealer subsidiary. The Company’s international broker-dealer subsidiaries, located in Canada, Europe and Asia, are subject to capital requirements determined by their respective regulators.

As of June 30, 2007, all of the Company’s broker-dealer subsidiaries met minimum net capital requirements. Total required net capital was $0.2 billion at June 30, 2007. In addition, the Company’s broker-dealer subsidiaries had excess net capital of $0.7 billion at June 30, 2007.

Banking

During the first quarter of 2007, ETC became a wholly-owned operating subsidiary of E*TRADE Bank. ETC continues to be an SEC-registered broker-dealer and is included in the minimum net capital requirements under the Rule. E*TRADE Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by Federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can trigger certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on E*TRADE Bank’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, E*TRADE Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of E*TRADE Bank’s assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. E*TRADE Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require E*TRADE Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of Total and Tier I Capital to risk-weighted assets and Tier I Capital to adjusted total assets. As shown in the table below, at June 30, 2007, the most recent date of notification, the OTS categorized E*TRADE Bank as “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed E*TRADE Bank’s categorization. At June 30, 2007, management believes that E*TRADE Bank meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject. However, events beyond management’s control, such as fluctuations in interest rates or a downturn in the economy in areas in which E*TRADE Bank’s loans or securities are concentrated, could adversely affect future earnings and E*TRADE Bank’s ability to meet its future capital requirements.

E*TRADE Bank’s required actual capital amounts and ratios are presented in the table below (dollars in thousands):


	Actual				Minimum Required to Qualify as Adequately Capitalized				Minimum Required to be Well Capitalized Under Prompt Corrective Action Provisions
	Amount		Ratio		Amount		Ratio		Amount		Ratio

NOTE 17—COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND OTHER REGULATORY MATTERS

Legal Matters

Litigation Matters

In June 2002, the Company acquired from MarketXT Holdings, Inc. (formerly known as “Tradescape Corporation”) the following entities: Tradescape Securities, LLC; Tradescape Technologies, LLC; and

Momentum Securities, LLC. Disputes subsequently arose between the parties regarding the responsibility for liabilities that first became known to the Company after the sale. On April 8, 2004, MarketXT filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against the Company, certain of its officers and directors, and other third parties, including SBI and Softbank Corporation, alleging that defendants were preventing plaintiffs from obtaining certain contingent payments allegedly due, and as a result, claiming damages of $1.5 billion. On April 9, 2004, the Company filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against certain directors and officers of MarketXT seeking declaratory relief and unspecified monetary damages for defendants’ fraud in connection with the 2002 sale, including, but not limited to, having presented the Company with fraudulent financial statements regarding the condition of Momentum Securities, LLC during the due diligence process. Subsequently, MarketXT was placed into bankruptcy, and the Company filed an adversary proceeding against MarketXT and others in January 2005, seeking declaratory relief, compensatory and punitive damages, in those Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York entitled, “In re MarketXT Holdings Corp., Debtor.” In that same court, the Company filed a separate adversary proceeding against Omar Amanat in those Chapter 7 bankruptcy proceedings entitled, “In re Amanat, Omar Shariff.” In October 2005, MarketXT answered the Company’s adversary proceeding and asserted its counterclaims, subsequently amending its claims in 2006 to add a $326 million claim for “promissory estoppel” in which MarketXT alleged, for the first time, that the Company breached a prior promise to purchase the acquired entities in 1999-2000. In April 2006, Omar Amanat answered the Company’s separate adversary proceeding against him and asserted his counterclaims. In separate motions before the Bankruptcy Court, the Company has moved to dismiss certain counterclaims brought by MarketXT including those described above, as well as certain counterclaims brought by Mr. Amanat. In a ruling dated September 29, 2006, the Bankruptcy Court in the MarketXT case granted the Company’s motion to dismiss four of the six bases upon which MarketXT asserts its fraud claims against the Company; its conversion claim; and its demand for punitive damages. In the same ruling, the Bankruptcy Court denied in its entirety MarketXT’s competing motion to dismiss the Company’s claims against it. On October 26, 2006, the Bankruptcy Court subsequently dismissed MarketXT’s “promissory estoppel” claim. The Company continues to believe that the respective claims brought against it by MarketXT and Omar Amanat are without merit, and the Company will continue both to vigorously defend itself against all such claims and to fully pursue its own claims and damages as described above.

An unfavorable outcome in any matter that is not covered by insurance could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. In addition, even if the ultimate outcomes are resolved in the Company’s favor, the defense of such litigation could entail considerable cost or the diversion of the efforts of management, either of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operation. In addition to the matters described above, the Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the normal course of business which could have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company contests liability or the amount of claimed damages in each pending matter. In view of the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of such matters, particularly in cases where claimants seek substantial or indeterminate damages, or where investigation or discovery have yet to be completed, the Company cannot predict with certainty the loss or range of loss related to such matters, how such matters will be resolved, when they will ultimately be resolved, or what any eventual settlement, fine, penalty or other relief might be. Subject to the foregoing, the Company believes that the outcome of any such pending matter will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition of the Company, although the outcome could be material to the Company’s or a business segment’s operating results in the future, depending, among other things, upon the Company’s or business segment’s income for such period.

Regulatory Matters

The securities and banking industries are subject to extensive regulation under Federal, state and applicable international laws. As a result, the Company is required to comply with many complex laws and rules, and its ability to comply is dependent in part on the establishment and maintenance of a qualified compliance system. From time to time, the Company has been threatened with or named as a defendant in, lawsuits, arbitrations and administrative

claims involving securities, banking and other matters. The Company is also subject to periodic regulatory audits and inspections. Compliance and trading problems that are reported to regulators, such as the SEC, the NYSE, the NASD or the OTS by dissatisfied customers or others are investigated by such regulators, and may, if pursued, result in formal claims being filed against the Company by customers or disciplinary action being taken against the Company or its employees by regulators. Any such claims or disciplinary actions that are decided against the Company could have a material impact on the financial results of the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

The SEC, in conjunction with various regional securities exchanges, is conducting an inquiry into the trading activities of certain specialist firms, including the Company’s subsidiary E*TRADE Capital Markets, LLC (“ETCM”), on various regional exchanges in order to determine whether such firms executed proprietary orders in a given security prior to a customer order in the same security (a practice commonly known as “trading ahead”) during the period 1999—2005. The SEC has indicated that it will seek disgorgement, prejudgment interest, and penalties from any firm found to have engaged in trading ahead activity to the detriment of its customers during that time period. It is possible that such sanctions, if imposed against ETCM, could have a material impact on the financial results of the Company during the period in which such sanctions are imposed. The Company and ETCM are cooperating with the investigation.

Insurance

The Company maintains insurance coverage that management believes is reasonable and prudent. The principal insurance coverage it maintains covers commercial general liability; property damage; hardware/software damage; cyber liability; directors and officers; employment practices liability; certain criminal acts against the Company; and errors and omissions. The Company believes that such insurance coverage is adequate for the purpose of its business. The Company’s ability to maintain this level of insurance coverage in the future, however, is subject to the availability of affordable insurance in the marketplace.

Reserves

For all legal and regulatory matters, reserves are established in accordance with SFAS No. 5. Once established, reserves are adjusted when an event occurs requiring an adjustment. During the second quarter of 2007, the Company increased its reserves by $35.1 million to a level management believes is adequate at this time.

Commitments

In the normal course of business, the Company makes various commitments to extend credit and incur contingent liabilities that are not reflected in the consolidated balance sheet. Significant changes in the economy or interest rates influence the impact that these commitments and contingencies have on the Company in the future.

Loans

The Company had the following mortgage loan commitments (dollars in thousands):


	June 30, 2007
	Fixed Rate		Variable Rate		Total
Purchase loans	$	201,100	$	2,060,499	$	2,261,599
Originate loans	$	819,536	$	522,785	$	1,342,321
Sell loans	$	140,340	$	21,192	$	161,532

Securities, Unused Lines of Credit and Certificates of Deposit

At June 30, 2007, the Company had commitments to purchase $0.9 billion and sell $0.4 billion in securities. In addition, the Company had approximately $4.0 billion of certificates of deposit scheduled to mature in less than one year and $7.9 billion of unfunded commitments to extend credit.

Guarantees

The Company provides guarantees to investors purchasing mortgage loans, which are considered standard representations and warranties within the mortgage industry. The primary guarantees are as follows:

•

The mortgage and the mortgage note have been duly executed and each is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable in accordance with its terms. The mortgage has been duly acknowledged and recorded and is valid. The mortgage and the mortgage note are not subject to any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including, without limitation, the defense of usury, and no such right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense has been asserted with respect thereto. If these claims prove to be untrue, the investor can require the Company to repurchase the loan and return all loan purchase and servicing release premiums.

•

Should any eligible mortgage loan delivered pay off prior to the receipt of the first payment, the loan purchase and servicing release premiums shall be fully refunded.

•

Should any eligible mortgage loan delivered to an investor pay off between the receipt of the first payment and a contractually designated period of time (typically 60—120 days from the date of purchase), the servicing release premiums shall be fully refunded.

Management has determined that quantifying the potential liability exposure is not meaningful due to the nature of the standard representations and warranties, which rarely result in loan repurchases. The current carrying amount of the liability recorded at June 30, 2007 is $0.3 million, which the Company considers adequate based upon analysis of historical trends and current economic conditions for these guarantees.

ETBH raises capital through the formation of trusts, which sell trust preferred stock in the capital markets. The capital securities must be redeemed in whole at the due date, which is generally 30 years after issuance. Each trust issues Floating Rate Cumulative Preferred Securities at par, with a liquidation amount of $1,000 per capital security. The proceeds from the sale of issuances are invested in ETBH’s Floating Rate Junior Subordinated Debentures.

During the 30-year period prior to the redemption of the Floating Rate Cumulative Preferred Securities, ETBH guarantees the accrued and unpaid distributions on these securities, as well as the redemption price of the securities and certain costs that may be incurred in liquidating, terminating or dissolving the trusts (all of which would otherwise be payable by the trusts). At June 30, 2007, management estimated that the maximum potential liability under this arrangement is equal to approximately $442.2 million or the total face value of these securities plus dividends, which may be unpaid at the termination of the trust arrangement.

NOTE 18—SEGMENT INFORMATION

The segments presented below reflect the manner in which the Company’s chief operating decision maker assesses the Company’s performance. The Company has two segments: retail and institutional.

Retail includes:

•

trading, investing, banking and lending products and services to individuals; and

•

stock plan administration products and services.

Institutional includes:

•

balance sheet management activities including generation of institutional net interest spread, gain on sales of loans and securities, net and management income;

•

market-making; and

•

global equity execution and settlement services.

The Company evaluates the performance of its segments based on segment contribution (net revenue less expense excluding operating interest). All corporate overhead, administrative and technology charges are allocated to segments either in proportion to their respective direct costs or based upon specific operating criteria.

Financial information for the Company’s reportable segments is presented in the following tables (dollars in thousands):

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a)

Our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of the Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”) Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective based on their evaluation of these controls and procedures required by paragraph (b) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15.

(b)

Our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the changes to the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2007, as required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15, and have concluded that there were no such changes that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In June 2002, the Company acquired from MarketXT Holdings, Inc. (formerly known as “Tradescape Corporation”) the following entities: Tradescape Securities, LLC; Tradescape Technologies, LLC; and Momentum Securities, LLC. Disputes subsequently arose between the parties regarding the responsibility for liabilities that first became known to the Company after the sale. On April 8, 2004, MarketXT filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against the Company, certain of its officers and directors, and other third parties, including Softbank Investment Corporation (“SBI”) and Softbank Corporation, alleging that defendants were preventing plaintiffs from obtaining certain contingent payments allegedly due, and as a result, claiming damages of $1.5 billion. On April 9, 2004, the Company filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against certain directors and officers of MarketXT seeking declaratory relief and unspecified monetary damages for defendants’ fraud in connection with the 2002 sale, including, but not limited to, having presented the Company with fraudulent financial statements regarding the condition of Momentum Securities, LLC during the due diligence process. Subsequently, MarketXT was placed into bankruptcy, and the Company filed an adversary proceeding against MarketXT and others in January 2005, seeking declaratory relief, compensatory and punitive damages, in those Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York entitled, “In re MarketXT Holdings Corp., Debtor.” In that same court, the Company filed a separate adversary proceeding against Omar Amanat in those Chapter 7 bankruptcy proceedings entitled, “In re Amanat, Omar Shariff.” In October 2005, MarketXT answered the Company’s adversary proceeding and asserted its counterclaims, subsequently amending its claims in 2006 to add a $326 million claim for “promissory estoppel” in which Market XT alleged, for the first time, that the Company breached a prior promise to purchase the acquired entities in 1999-2000. In April 2006, Omar Amanat answered the Company’s separate adversary proceeding against him and asserted his counterclaims. In separate motions before the Bankruptcy Court, the Company has moved to dismiss certain counterclaims brought by MarketXT including those described above, as well as certain counterclaims brought by Mr. Amanat. In a ruling dated September 29, 2006, the Bankruptcy Court in the MarketXT case granted the Company’s motion to dismiss four of the six bases upon which MarketXT asserts its fraud claims against the Company; its conversion claim; and its demand for punitive damages. In the same ruling, the Bankruptcy Court denied in its entirety MarketXT’s competing motion to dismiss the Company’s claims against it. On October 26, 2006, the Bankruptcy Court subsequently dismissed MarketXT’s “promissory estoppel” claim. The Company continues to believe that the respective claims brought against it by MarketXT and Omar Amanat are without merit, and the Company will continue both to vigorously defend itself against all such claims and to fully pursue its own claims and damages as described above.

An unfavorable outcome in any matter that is not covered by insurance could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. In addition, even if the ultimate outcomes are resolved in our favor, the defense of such litigation could entail considerable cost or the diversion of the efforts of management, either of which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. In addition to the matters described above, the Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the normal course of business which could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

We maintain insurance coverage that we believe is reasonable and prudent. The principal insurance coverage we maintain covers commercial general liability; property damage; hardware/software damage; cyber liability; directors and officers; employment practices liability; certain criminal acts against the Company; and errors and omissions. We believe that such insurance coverage is adequate for the purpose of our business. Our ability to maintain this level of insurance coverage in the future, however, is subject to the availability of affordable insurance in the marketplace.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

The additional risk factor presented below should be considered in addition to the risk factors previously disclosed in our 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The level of provision for loan losses in our mortgage loan portfolio may increase as a result of trends in the macro-economic environment

A substantial portion of our asset portfolio is composed of loans secured by first lien residential mortgages and second lien mortgages (home equity loans and home equity lines of credit). The overall performance of these assets can be affected by the macro trends of the economy in general and the residential real estate market, such as home price depreciation or slowing appreciation, rising mortgage interest rates and tighter mortgage lending guidelines across the industry. Such performance can also be impacted by our mix of first lien and second lien mortgages and factors particular to a given borrower. We expect nonperforming loan levels to fluctuate over time due to portfolio growth, portfolio seasoning and resolution through collections, sales or charge-offs. We increased the provision for loan losses for our first and second lien mortgages in recent periods based on the seasoning of our portfolio and higher delinquencies and charge-offs compared to 2006. Instability in the consumer credit markets and credit trends may require additional increases in our provision for loan losses, which would have an adverse effect on our results of operations in future periods.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

On December 15, 2004, the Company announced that its Board of Directors approved a $200.0 million repurchase program (the “December 2004 Plan”). The December 2004 Plan is open-ended and provides the flexibility to buy back common stock, retire debt or a combination of both. The Company may conduct these repurchases on the open market, in private transactions or a combination of both. During the three months ended June 30, 2007, the Company completed the December 2004 Plan.

The table below shows the timing and impact of the repurchases under both the April 2007 Plan and the December 2004 Plan during the three months ended June 30, 2007 (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts):


Month	Total Number of Shares Purchased	Average Price Paid per Share		Total Number of Shares Purchased as Part of the April 2007 and December 2004 Plans	Maximum Dollar Value of Shares That May Yet be Purchased Under the April 2007 and December 2004 Plans
April 2007	500,000	$	21.84	500,000	$	273,221
May 2007	1,288,825	$	22.56	1,288,825	$	244,141
June 2007	1,339,800	$	24.54	1,339,800	$	211,259

ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES
