Financial Condition andResults of OperationsOur 2011 net income grew to $706.6 million compared to$613.8 million in 2010. Increased earnings were drivenprincipally by greater net interest income resulting from strongloan growth in our Agribusiness operating segment. To alesser extent, earnings also increased due to reducedimpairment losses in our investment securities portfolio andgreater fee income. Our provision for income taxes, losses onearly extinguishments of debt and operating expenses wereeach higher in 2011 and somewhat offset those favorablefactors. Our return on average common shareholders' equityincreased to 16.05 percent for 2011 from 15.31 percent inNet Interest Income2010. Our return on average assets increased to 1.07 percentfor 2011, compared to 1.03 percent for 2010. Both measuresimproved in 2011 due to our stronger earnings.Our 2010 net income increased to $613.8 million, or by9 percent, from $565.4 million in 2009. The 2010 increase wasprincipally driven by $33.3 million in refunds of Farm Creditinsurance fund premiums paid in prior years and a$40.7 million decrease in the 2010 insurance fund premiumassessment, which more than offset higher impairment lossesin our investment securities portfolio and costs related to thesettlement of a business dispute. In addition, net interestincome and fees increased in 2010 and the improved creditquality of our loan portfolio led to a lower provision for loanlosses.Interest income and interest expense for the major categories of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities are shown inthe following table.Average Balances and RatesYear Ended December 31,($ in Millions)Interest-earning AssetsTotal LoansInvestment SecuritiesOther Earning AssetsAverageBalance2011 2010 2009AverageRateInterestIncome/ExpenseAverageBalanceInterestIncome/ExpenseAverageBalanceInterestIncome/Expense$ 50,199 3.02 % $ 1,518 $ 45,538 3.09 % $ 1,408 $ 44,527 3.25 % $ 1,44713,051 2.08 271 11,618 2.22 258 12,360 2.66 329- - - - - - 33 - -Total Interest-earning Assets $ 63,250 2.83 $ 1,789 $ 57,156 2.91 $ 1,666 $ 56,920 3.12 $ 1,776Interest-bearing LiabilitiesBonds and Notes $ 50,942 1.28 % $ 651 $ 48,804 1.35 % $ 660 $ 51,382 1.48 % $ 763Discount Notes 7,113 0.27 19 3,009 0.27 8 1,960 1.22 24Subordinated Debt 1,000 4.40 44 1,000 4.50 45 1,000 4.80 48Other Notes Payable 1,354 0.30 4 1,525 0.13 2 1,689 (0.30) * (5)Total Interest-bearing Liabilities $ 60,409 1.19 $ 718 $ 54,338 1.31 $ 715 $ 56,031 1.48 $ 830Interest Rate Spread 1.64 1.60 1.64Impact of Equity Financing $ 4,705 0.05 $ 4,292 0.06 $ 3,861 0.02Net Interest Margin andNet Interest Income1.69 % $ 1,0711.66 % $ 9511.66 % $ 946* Amounts are negative for 2009 due to changes in the fair values of derivatives.AverageRateAverageRate<strong>CoBank</strong> 2011 <strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Report</strong>34
