Credit Suisse Group reported net income of CHF 2,604 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006. The Investment Banking, Private Banking and Asset Management segments reported income from continuing operations before taxes of CHF 1,564 million, CHF 1,308 million and CHF 234 million, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2006.

~~(212)~~We have not ~~325~~reported our financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2006. We will report these results in connection with the filing of our quarterly report on Form 10-~~2000~~Q.

~~(Registrant’s~~We expect to ~~telephone~~report net income of approximately $300 million in the first quarter of ~~number~~ 2006 compared to $176 million in the first quarter of 2005. We expect our total net revenues to be approximately $2.9 billion, ~~including~~an ~~area~~increase ~~code)~~of approximately $1.3 billion, or 79%, compared to the first quarter of 2005. Net revenues for the first quarter of 2006 include approximately $950 million from the consolidation of certain private equity funds and other entities, compared to $157 million in the first quarter of 2005. Net income is unaffected by this consolidation as we record offsetting minority interests and related operating expenses. The increase in net revenues also reflects higher revenues across all of our Investment Banking businesses. We expect our total expenses for the first quarter of 2006 to be approximately $1.5 billion, an increase of approximately $290 million, or 23%, compared to the first quarter of 2005, primarily reflecting higher employee compensation and benefits expenses.
