               Washington Mutual Announces Fourth-Quarter Earnings
       Continued Strong Operating Fundamentals and Increased Cash Dividend

     SEATTLE  --   Washington   Mutual,   Inc.   (NYSE:   WM)  today   announced
fourth-quarter  1998 earnings of $157.1 million,  or 27 cents per diluted share,
compared with $337.4 million,  or 59 cents per diluted share for the same period
a year ago. Adjusted net income for the quarter,  excluding  charges  associated
with the completion of the merger with H.F.  Ahmanson & Company and applying the
effective   tax  rate  for  the  entire  year  rather  than  an  unusually   low
fourth-quarter tax rate, was $430.0 million, or 74 cents per diluted share.

     Earnings for 1998 were a record $1.49 billion,  or $2.56 per diluted share,
a 68 percent  increase  over  earnings of $885.1  million,  or $1.52 per diluted
share,  for the same  period  one year  ago.  (A number  of  merger-related  and
one-time charges affecting both fourth-quarter and 1998 earnings are outlined on
page two.)

Common Stock Dividend

     Based on continued  strong operating  fundamentals,  the company's board of
directors  declared an increase in the cash dividend on common stock to 23 cents
per share, up from 22 cents the previous quarter.  Dividends on the common stock
are payable on Feb. 12, 1999 to shareholders of record as of Jan. 29, 1999.

     "The fourth quarter of 1998 capped off one of the most significant years in
the history of Washington Mutual," said Kerry Killinger, the company's chairman,
president and chief executive officer.

     "During  the year,  we  successfully  completed  the  integration  of Great
Western  and  finalized   our  merger  with   Ahmanson.   Meanwhile,   operating
fundamentals  remained  strong  throughout  the year, as evidenced by our record
lending activity and significant growth in both households and checking accounts
throughout our service territory,  thus establishing Washington Mutual as one of
the leading consumer banking franchises nationally."

Merger-Related and Other Items for the Quarter and the Year

     Fourth-quarter  earnings were  significantly  reduced by $472.5  million of
pre-tax  charges  associated  with the  completion of the Ahmanson  transaction.
These charges were comprised of $431.5 million of transaction-related  expenses,
and $41.0 million in writedowns, reserves and other Ahmanson-related charges. At
the same time,  fourth-quarter earnings benefited from an unusually low tax rate
of 26.11  percent due to a favorable  adjustment  in the value of the  company's
deferred tax assets.

     In addition to the items noted  above,  earnings  for 1998 were  positively
impacted by the $289.0 million pretax gain on the sale of Ahmanson's 27 branches
on the east coast of Florida.  Earnings for 1997 were significantly  affected by
pretax  transaction  charges of $431.1 million related to the company's  mergers
with Great Western  Financial  Corporation  and American  Savings Bank, and were
also impacted by the company's $100 million pretax writedown  resulting from the
securitization of approximately $1.2 billion of higher-risk residential mortgage
loans originated by Great Western Bank.

Net Interest  Income and Other Income

     Net interest income in the fourth quarter was $1.08 billion, up from $999.1
million in the prior  year's  fourth  quarter,  primarily  due to an increase in
average  interest-earning  assets from $137.53 billion in fourth quarter 1997 to
$153.25  billion for the same period in 1998. For the year, net interest  income
was $4.29  billion,  up from $3.92  billion  for 1997.  The spread in the fourth
quarter was 2.66 percent  compared  with 2.77 percent for the same period a year
earlier.  The margin was 2.85  percent in the most  recent  quarter  versus 2.94
percent in fourth quarter 1997.

     Killinger  pointed  out  that  strong  growth  in  fee-generating  checking
accounts continues to have a favorable effect on other income. A net increase of
approximately  550,000  checking  accounts,   year  over  year,  contributed  to
depositor and other retail banking fees of $163.6 million for the quarter, up 30
percent  over $126.0  million  for the same  period one year ago.  For the year,
depositor  and other retail  banking fees totaled  $568.4  million in 1998, a 19
percent  increase over $478.7 million for 1997. Total other income in the fourth
quarter  was $321.3  million,  up from $280.4  million  for last  year's  fourth
quarter.

     Mortgage  banking  income for the quarter was $31.2  million  compared with
$17.5 million in fourth quarter 1997, and for the year was $133.1 million versus
a loss of $44.4  million in 1997.  The loss in 1997  resulted from the company's
pretax writedown of $100 million discussed above.

Loan Originations

     Continued  relatively low interest rates for residential  mortgages  helped
the  company  establish a new record for total loan  originations  in the fourth
quarter of 1998 and for the year. Total loan originations during the most recent
quarter were $15.53  billion,  up from $9.79  billion for the fourth  quarter of
1997. For the year, total loan originations  were $52.69 billion,  compared with
$35.50 billion in 1997.

     In  the  fourth  quarter,   single-family   residential  loan  originations
(excluding residential  construction) were $12.87 billion, up from $7.17 billion
a year ago. For the year,  single-family  residential loan originations  totaled
$41.87 billion, up from $25.76 billion in 1997.

     Of the  single-family  residential loans originated in fourth quarter 1998,
approximately  41 percent were  adjustable-rate  mortgages.  On an annual basis,
adjustable-rate  mortgages  represented  44  percent  of the  residential  loans
originated in 1998, reflecting the popularity of fixed-rate mortgages.

     Consumer  loan  originations  were $624.3  million for the current  quarter
versus $679.8 million in the prior year's fourth quarter;  and for the year were
$3.07 billion, up from $2.83 billion the previous year. Residential construction
originations  were $446.0 million during the quarter just ended,  up from $375.6
million in fourth  quarter 1997; and were $1.75 billion for the current year, as
compared with $1.45 billion in 1997.

Efficiency Ratio

     The company's  operating  efficiency ratio (defined as total other expense,
excluding  amortization  of intangible  assets,  as a percentage of net interest
income and other  income) was 80.53 percent  during the fourth  quarter of 1998,
compared with 51.09 percent for the fourth  quarter of 1997.  Without the impact
of the previously mentioned  adjustments  associated with the Ahmanson and Great
Western mergers,  the efficiency ratio for the fourth quarter of 1998 would have
been 46.77 percent,  an improvement  from 50.60 percent,  during the same period
one year ago.

     Killinger noted that the company is making excellent  progress in achieving
cost  savings from recent  mergers but is incurring  costs to support its strong
growth in loan originations and checking accounts.

     Other expense for the fourth quarter of 1998 was $1.15  billion,  including
$472.5 million in charges  associated  with the Ahmanson  merger,  as previously
discussed.  For the fourth  quarter of 1997,  other expense was $675.9  million,
including $6.2 million in expenses  related to the Great Western merger.

Credit Quality and Capital

     Nonperforming  assets  declined by 6 percent to $1.21  billion at Dec.  31,
1998,  from $1.29  billion at Sept.  30,  1998,  and down from $1.37  billion at
year-end  1997.  The  ratio of  nonperforming  assets to total  assets  was 0.73
percent at Dec. 31,  1998, a decrease  from 0.81 percent at the end of the third
quarter, and down from 0.96 percent at year-end 1997.

     In the fourth quarter,  the company made a $33.2 million provision for loan
losses and took $11.4 million in writedowns on loans  securitized  and retained.
For the quarter,  net loan charge offs were $43.4 million,  an improvement  from
$54.6  million for the same period one year ago. Loan loss reserves and reserves
for losses on loans securitized and retained or sold aggregated $1.21 billion at
Dec. 31, 1998, and represented 129 percent of nonaccrual loans.

Assets,  Stockholders' Equity and Capital Ratios

     Washington  Mutual's  consolidated  assets were $165.49 billion at Dec. 31,
1998, up from $143.52  billion at year-end  1997. The increase was primarily the
result of the  retention of loans  originated  by the  company,  the purchase of
mortgage-backed securities and whole loans, and the inclusion of Coast Savings.

Washington Mutual - 5

     Total deposits were $85.49 billion at Dec. 31, 1998, up $958.5 million from
the end of the  third  quarter  of 1998.  Transaction  accounts,  which  include
checking,  money market,  and savings  accounts,  rose $2.97 billion  during the
fourth quarter of 1998, while time deposits declined by $2.01 billion during the
same period.  The ratio of  transaction  accounts to total  deposits stood at 49
percent at the end of 1998,  an increase from 41 percent at the beginning of the
year.

     At Dec. 31, 1998,  stockholders'  equity  stood at $9.34  billion,  or 5.65
percent of  consolidated  assets.  In addition,  capital ratios of the company's
banking subsidiaries continued to exceed the federal regulatory requirements for
classification  as  "well-capitalized"   institutions,  the  highest  regulatory
standard.

Consumer  Finance

     Aristar, Inc., the holding company for Washington Mutual's consumer finance
group, reported fourth-quarter net income of $11.5 million, versus $12.0 million
for the same period in 1997. For the year, Aristar generated net income of $52.9
million in 1998, up 14 percent from $46.3 million one year ago.

Ahmanson  Merger Update

     "We've made  significant  progress in the  integration of Ahmanson over the
last three months and we remain on-track to complete our systems  conversions by
the middle of 1999," Killinger said. That progress included:

     Completing the merger with Ahmanson, effective Oct. 1, 1998;

     Reinforcing the company's corporate values,  strategies and culture through
personal  meetings  with  Ahmanson  employee  groups  by  Killinger   throughout
California and Texas;

     Comprehensive  computer  and  sales  training  of  Texas  consumer  banking
employees in preparation for the upcoming systems conversion;

     Technical  training  for lending  managers  and loan  support  employees at
former Ahmanson lending offices;

     Merging Griffin Financial Services  (Ahmanson's  broker/dealer  subsidiary)
with WM Financial Services, effective Jan. 1, 1999; and

     Combining the commercial real estate lending  operations of the former Home
Savings of America and Washington Mutual. This brings together  California's top
two multi-family lenders.
