Letter To Our Shareholders

2007 was a tumultuous year for the banking industry due to continued margin pressure, the crisis in the housing market 
and the resulting decline in bank stock prices. Though these challenges affected our results, we fared well relative to 
our peers. BOK Financial Corporation (BOKF) generated record earnings for the 17th consecutive year. We also laid 
the foundation for continued growth by significantly expanding our branch network. Furthermore, while bank stock prices 
plummeted, including the NASDAQ Bank index which fell 22%, BOKF’s stock price declined only 6%. In fact, BOKF’s 
stock outperformed all but nine of the 103 banks with market capitalization over $400 million. The market seems to 
recognize that while BOKF is not immune to industry trends, our proven and balanced strategies produce relatively stable 
results even in difficult environments. 

TARGETED RESULTS
BOKF’s earnings growth was moderately affected by prolonged flat and inverted yield curves, competitive loan and 
deposit pricing pressures and credit costs returning to more normal levels. However, by staying focused on our targets,  
we generated net income of $218 million, or $3.22 per diluted share compared to $213 million, or $3.16 per diluted  
share in 2006. Fee-based revenue, which represented 42% of total revenue, grew 9%. While all major fee categories 
posted increases, brokerage and trading revenue and transaction card revenue enjoyed the strongest growth at 17%  
and 15%, respectively.  

Our balance sheet growth remained strong in 2007 as we surpassed $20 billion in total assets, fueled by success in the 
regional banks. During the year, we reached a milestone as more than half of BOKF’s loans are now in markets outside 
Oklahoma. This is noteworthy considering our regional expansion began in 1997 with the acquisitions of two banks in the 
Dallas area with combined assets of $367 million. Today average assets in Texas exceed $4.3 billion. BOKF is positioned 
to continue this growth trend, due in part to recent investments in our branch network.

During 2007, we increased the depth and reach of our branch network both organically and through acquisitions. We 
nearly tripled our branches in Colorado with the acquisition of First United Bank. By acquiring Worth National Bank, we 
extended our presence further west in the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex. In addition to the 16 branches we acquired, we 
opened 14 others throughout our footprint. We now have 189 banking locations in total.

BALANCED STRATEGY
While we focused significant resources on expansion projects, we weren’t distracted from our core business. BOKF 
focuses on traditional banking, maintaining virtually no direct exposure to the subprime markets through the loan or 
investment portfolios. Due to credit issues in the housing market, many banks suffered significant loan losses. BOKF’s loan 
losses only increased moderately in 2007. Our nonperforming assets are returning to more normal levels after remaining 
at historic lows for more than two years. Our asset quality may continue to be affected by the general economy, but we 
should benefit from the balance and diversity of our loan portfolio. We deliberately manage loan growth to ensure that 
commercial real estate loans do not increase as a percentage of the loan portfolio. 

To achieve our desired results in this turbulent economic environment, we continually measure progress and refine our 
strategy. While we manage our organization for long-term value rather than short-term results, we also aim to increase 
profitability. In anticipation of continued headwinds, we took measured action in the third quarter to realign operating 
expenses in a way that will not compromise customer service or future growth. We will continue to exercise prudent 
expense management in order to generate profitable growth.

AIMING FOR CONTINUED GROWTH
Though many hold a pessimistic outlook for 2008, we are positioned well to meet the challenges ahead. While we expect 
credit quality to continue to weaken, we are confident in our consistent underwriting standards and credit monitoring 
processes. Our balance sheet and capital ratios are solid. In fact, our tangible capital ratio is in the top quartile of the 
largest U.S. banks. Our recent acquisitions and investments in branching offer many opportunities to enhance fee revenue 
as we introduce our complete set of financial products and services to new customers. Past investments in personnel and 
technology have also begun to generate increased revenue, particularly in wealth management.

While it is true that the future cannot be predicted with any degree of certainty, our vision for the company’s future is 
clearly defined and our balanced strategies are thoughtfully planned. Our track record of 17 consecutive years of record 
earnings proves we can successfully execute our strategies through varying economic cycles. 

As always, we want to express our appreciation for those who make BOKF the leader that it is – our dedicated  
board members, our talented employees, our loyal customers and our diverse communities. We look forward to  
our continued partnerships.
