Accordingly, the indicators presented in this report are not directly comparable to those announced in previous interim periods.

2.1.2.  
Investment Portfolio
As of March 31, 2007, BANCOLOMBIA’s net investment securities amounted to Ps 5,249 billion, representing a decrease of 7.6% as compared to December 31, 2006, and a decrease of 36.9% as compared to March 31, 2006. As of March 31, 2007, investments in debt securities represented 94.8% of the investment securities portfolio.
BANCOLOMBIA’s investments in debt securities amounted to Ps 4,977 billion (13.6% of total assets) as of March 31, 2007, decreasing 10.0% as compared December 31, 2006 when such investments amounted to Ps 5,531 billion (16.0% of total assets) and 38.8% as compared to March 31, 2006 when such investments amounted to Ps 8,132 billion (26.3% of total assets). Such decrease is a consequence of the Bank’s strategy to focus on reallocation of assets from the investment portfolio to the loan portfolio and to lower exposure to debt securities’ prices.
2.1.3.  
Asset Quality
As of March 31, 2007, the Bank’s past due loans accounted for 2.7% of total loans. Loans classified as C, D and E comprised 2.7% of total loans. The slight deterioration in the asset quality as compared to December 31, 2006 is explained by the faster growth of retail and SMEs’ loans, as such segment has higher delinquency as compared to the corporate segment. In addition, the ratio of allowances to past due loans at the end of the quarter was 130.4%, while the ratio of allowances to loans classified as C, D and E at the end of the quarter was 130.5%.

Unrealized losses on available-for-sale debt securities amounted to Ps 6.9 billion as of March 31, 2007.
Also as of March 31, 2007, the Bank’s consolidated ratio of technical capital to risk-weighted assets was 11.14%, a slight increase from the 11.05% as of December 31, 2006, but a decrease from the 12.66% as of March 31, 2006. This decrease resulted from the strong growth of the loan portfolio.

3. INCOME STATEMENT
BANCOLOMBIA’s net income amounted to Ps 199,957 million for the first quarter of 2007, as compared to Ps 284,893 million for the fourth quarter of 2006 and Ps 214,102 million for the first quarter of 2006.
3.1.  
Net Interest Income
During the first quarter of 2007 interest on loans amounted to Ps 674,217 million, increasing 4.2% as compared to the last quarter of 2006 (when interest on loans amounted to Ps 647,302 million) and 29.8% as compared the first quarter of 2006 (when interest on loans amounted to Ps 519,316 million). On the other hand, interests on investment securities amounted to Ps 82,752 million during the first quarter of 2007, a decrease of 32.4% as compared to the fourth quarter of 2006 and of 38.9% as compared to the first quarter of 2006. Such decreases are explained by the decrease in the size of the investment portfolio and by the lower returns achieved by debt securities in the emerging markets.
Interest expenses amounted to Ps 353,834 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2007, increasing 6.8% as compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2006 and 22.1% as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2006 caused by an increase in deposit funds from clients and interest rates. The increase in deposit funds from clients partially offset the decrease in the Bank’s liquidity resulting from the interest rate increases implemented by the Colombian Central Bank.
As a result, net interest income totaled Ps 538,567 million for the period ended March 31, 2007, a decrease of 4.14% as compared to the last quarter of 2006. However, as compared to the figures presented for the period ended March 31, 2006, net interest income increased 17.5%.
3.2.  
Provisions
For the period ended March 31, 2007, provisions for loan and interest losses, net of recoveries amounted to Ps 74,392 million, representing an increase of 15.9% as compared to Ps 64,205 million for the first quarter of 2006. This level of provisions represents an increase of 142.9% as compared to the fourth quarter of 2006, when such provisions amounted to Ps 30,630 million. Such increase is mainly due to lower recoveries registered during the quarter ended March 31, 2007 as compared to the unusually high Ps 50,000 million in recoveries registered during the quarter ended December 31, 2006.
Additionally, recoveries of provisions for foreclosed assets and other assets amounted to Ps 29,421 million during the first quarter of 2007, increasing 21.5% as compared to the fourth quarter of 2006. This is due to the divestiture of Almacenar S.A. announced on March 6, 2007, which represented a recovery of provisions previously accrued in relation to such investment and which was offset by a registered loss in the sale of Almacenar S.A. stock. As a result, the sale of Almacenar S.A. did not have any effect on the net income of the first quarter of 2007.

Fees and Income from Services
Net fees and income from services amounted to Ps 214,169 million during the first quarter of 2007, decreasing 7.7% as compared to the fourth quarter of 2006 and increasing 3.9% as compared to the first quarter of 2006. Net fees and income from services figures are affected as compared to the fourth quarter of 2006 and to the first quarter of 2006 due to the disposal of Almacenar S.A. whose revenue income was included in the net fees and income from services line. After adjusting for the effect of the divestiture of Almacenar S.A., net fees and income from services decreased 1.1% as compared to the fourth quarter of 2006 and increased 14.0% as compared to the first quarter of 2006.
During the first quarter of 2007, BANCOLOMBIA’s accumulated unconsolidated credit card billing increased 27.7%, resulting in a 21.7% market share of the Colombian credit card business. In addition, the number of outstanding credit cards issued by BANCOLOMBIA increased 22.9%, resulting in a 14.7% market share.

3.4.  
Operating expenses
Operating expenses amounted to Ps 470,203 million during the first quarter of 2007, representing a decrease of 12.9% as compared to the fourth quarter of 2006 when operating expenses amounted to Ps 539,563 million. However, it represented an increase of 15.1% as compared to the first quarter of 2006 when operating expenses amounted to Ps 408,585 million.
In addition, if compared to the quarterly average of 2006 after adjusting for the effect of the sale of Almacenar S.A., operating expenses during the quarter ended in March 31, 2007 grew 7.8%, due to the increased activity arising from the strong growth of the loan portfolio and deposit base experienced over the prior year.
During the first quarter of 2007, BANCOLOMBIA’s efficiency ratio as calculated by dividing operating expenses by net operating income was 60.9%. Also during the same period, BANCOLOMBIA’s efficiency ratio measured by dividing operating expenses by average total assets was 5.4%.

In order to be consistent with the methodology used in our current filings with the SEC, the Bank has changed the methodology employed in previous interim periods from average assets as of three points in a quarter (the last day of each of the three months in such quarter) to a computation based on the average assets as of four points in a quarter (the last day of the previous quarter together with the last day of each of the three months in such quarter). Accordingly, the indicators presented in this report are not directly comparable to those announced in previous interim periods.
