sovereignbank Q3_2007
Sovereign Bancorp reported third quarter 2007 earnings of $58.2 million, down from $184 million in the third quarter of 2006, due to disruptions in the mortgage and credit markets. Net interest income was $457 million and the net interest margin was 2.74%. Non-interest income fell to $141 million due to losses from capital markets and mortgage banking. The provision for credit losses increased to $162.5 million due to higher reserves for home equity and auto loans. Capital ratios declined slightly but remained strong.
