Wells Fargo repay TRAP

Wells Fargo Expects to Repay TARP Soon Without New Share Sale
By Erik Schatzker and Dakin Campbell

Sept. 1 (Bloomberg) -- Wells Fargo & Co. plans to repay funds obtained from the government’s bank bailout program in the near future without raising equity.

John Stumpf, president and chief executive officer of the San Francisco-based lender, discussed the bank’s plans for paying back $25 billion obtained from the Troubled Asset Relief Program during an interview today on Bloomberg Television.

“We will pay it back, but we’re going to pay it back in a shareholder-friendly way,” Stumpf said in the interview. “We are now earning capital so quickly, organically, we don’t want to dilute our existing shareholders.”

Bilibala comments
Based on 2q09 results, if Wells Fargo re-pay the TRAP, the tier 1 capital ratio will drop significantly, may be below 8.0%. Even if the corp can generate another $3-4B in 3q, the ratio will still look too low compare to peers. Although we all know, 8.0% is fine given Wells Fargo's assets based are quite strong from an risk weighted point of view.
