Summary of 2006 results The Bank of Åland Group had a successful year in 2006, with strong performance in its asset management and information technology (IT) operations. The Group’s earnings were its best ever. Consolidated net operating profit rose by 13 per cent to EUR 21.1 M (18.7). Income rose by 18 per cent to EUR 61.6 M (52.0), while expenses rose to EUR 40.9 M (33.2). Return on equity after taxes (ROE) rose to 13.3 (12.5) per cent, and earnings per share after taxes rose to EUR 1.29 (1.24). Income Net interest income amounted to EUR 32.7 M (31.4). Increased lending volume as well as higher interest rates contributed to the improvement, while continued pressure on margins had an offsetting effect. Commission income rose by 14 per cent to EUR 18.4 M (16.1). Most of the increase in income came from asset management and from providing capital market products. Net income from securities trading for the Bank’s own account was EUR 1.2 M (0.6). Net income from dealing in the foreign exchange market amounted to EUR 1.0 M (0.9). Net income from financial assets available for sale was EUR 0.3 M (1.1). Comparability is affected by a capital gain of EUR 1.2 M from the divestment of the Bank’s holding in the Åland-based food processing company Chips Abp during 2005. Net income from investment properties amounted to EUR 0.2 M, which arose from divestment of properties. Other operating income rose by 167 per cent to EUR 9.4 M, compared to EUR 3.5 M the preceding year. The increase mainly came from higher revenue in the Group’s IT operations. Total income rose by 18 per cent to EUR 61.6 M (52.0). Expenses Staff costs rose by 27 per cent to EUR 22.5 M (17.8). Most of the increase was due to new recruitments at Crosskey Banking Solutions Ab Ltd. Changes in pension liabilities and fair value in the Bank’s pension fund, Ålandsbanken Abps Pensionsstiftelse, reduced staff costs by EUR 0.2 M (2.4). Other administrative expenses (office costs, marketing, telecommunications and computer costs) rose to EUR 9.4 M (8.5). Production for own use amounted to EUR 0.5 M (1.1) and was related to expenses for computer software, which in accordance with IFRS must be capitali sed. Depreciation/amortisation rose to EUR 4.0 M (3.9). Other operating expenses amounted to EUR 5.4 M (4.2). Total expenses, including planned depreciation/amortisation, rose by 23 per cent to EUR 40.9 M (33.2).

The profit margin of the Bank of Åland Group fell to 24.5 per cent from 25.5 per cent. Expense/income ratio Efficiency measured as expenses divided by income, including and excluding loan losses, respectively: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Bank of Åland Group | 2006 | 2005 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | including loan losses | 0.66 | 0.64 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | excluding loan losses | 0.66 | 0.64 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Capital adequacy Capital adequacy rules require that the capital base in the form of equity capital and reserves total at least 8 per cent of risk-weighted receivables and contingent liabilities. At the end of 2006, the Group’s capital adequacy according to the Credit Institutions Act was 11.4 (11.3) per cent. To strengthen the capital base in the form of supplementary capital, risk debenture loans totalling EUR 11.4 M were issued during the year. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Bank of Åland Group | Dec 31 | Dec 31 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |  EUR thousand unless otherwise stated | 2006 | 2005 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Core capital | 91,596 | 83,783 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Of which unrealised gains on investment properties | 2,426 | 1,759 | | and financial assets and liabilities carried via | | | | the income statement | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Supplementary capital | 55,081 | 51,346 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Of which unrealised gains due to the fair value | 9,283 | 9,454 | | reserve and recognition of unrealised gains | | | | directly in equity capital upon transition to IFRS | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Capital requirement for market risks | 9 | 5 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Total capital base | 146,677 | 135,129 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Risk-weighted receivables, investments and | 1,289,492 | 1,192,697 | | off-balance sheet obligations | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Total capital ratio, % | 11.37 | 11.33 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Core capital as a percentage of risk-weighted | 7.10 | 7.02 | | v olume | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Recognised equity capital | 122,168 | 113,336 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Difference between capital base and recognised | 24,509 | 21,794 | | equity capital | | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The main reasons for the difference between the capital base and recognised equity capital are that subordinated liabilities may be counted in the capital base and that the proposed dividend may not be included in the capital base. Standardised approach, Basel II According to preliminary calculations, the total capital ratio will rise by about two percentage points when the capital requirement for credit risk is calculated according to the standardised approach in Pillar 1.

Proposed distribution of profit The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting approve a dividend of EUR 1.00 per share, which is equivalent to a total amount of EUR 11.5 M. Outlook for 2007 The potential for an earnings improvement during 2007 is considered good. The Group’s assessment of the outlook for 2007 is based on its assumptions about future developments in the fixed-income and financial markets. The Group predicts continued tough competition in the market with regard to lending margins, a continued positive trend in the mutual fund and capital markets as well as growth in the Group’s IT operations. The cost level in the Group is expected to rise moderately. General interest rates, the demand for lending, the trend of the capital and financial markets and the competitive situation are factors that the Group cannot influence. Long-term financial targets The Board of Directors of the Bank of Åland has adopted the following long-term financial targets for the Group: The Bank of Åland endeavours to earn a return on equity that will exceed the unweighted average of a defined group of Nordic banks. The total capital ratio shall amount to at least 10 per cent, and core capital shall amount to at least 7 per cent of risk-weighted volume. In a medium-term perspective, the Ban k’s income/expense ratio shall continuously improve to 2 (expense/income ratio 0.5). The Bank of Åland endeavours to pursue a dividend policy in which an increasing percentage of after-tax profit is retained in the Bank, in order to safeguard its sound business development. This is expected to result in a dividend that approaches the industry standard for Nordic banks as a percentage of earnings. It implies a dividend which, in a medium-term perspective, on average will remain at today’s level in euro terms.
