National City Reports 2005 Fourth Quarter and Full Year Results18 January 2006
National City Corporation (NYSE: NCC) today reported fourth quarter 2005 net income of $398 million, or $.64 per diluted share, and full year 2005 net income of $2.0 billion, or $3.09 per diluted share. Fourth quarter net income included pretax charges aggregating $115 million, equal to $75 million after-tax or $.12 per diluted share, pertaining to the Corporation's Best In Class program and other initiatives. (Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20030428/NATIONALCITYLOGO) Fourth quarter 2004 net income was $960 million, or $1.46 per diluted share. Full year 2004 net income was $2.8 billion, or $4.31 per diluted share. These results include an after-tax gain of $477 million on the sale of a former subsidiary, National Processing, Inc., net of sale expenses. Exclusive of that gain, fourth quarter 2004 net income would have been $483 million, or $.72 per diluted share, and full year net income would have been $2.3 billion, or $3.57 per diluted share. Results for both 2005 and 2004 include other unusual or infrequently occurring items as described later in this release. Chairman's Comments Chairman and CEO David A. Daberko commented, "Our 2005 results were positive despite a challenging environment in certain businesses. Loan growth was quite good in commercial, residential real estate and home equity. Net interest margin held up reasonably well, despite narrow loan spreads and a flat yield curve. Our retail bank delivered significant growth in deposit fee income and continued growth in households. As expected, mortgage banking earnings fell sharply in 2005 due to cyclically lower volumes and gains on sale of mortgages, as well as lower hedging gains. We believe that we are now at the low point of the mortgage cycle." "Consumer charge-offs increased in the fourth quarter as a result of a spike in consumer bankruptcy filings associated with the change in bankruptcy laws in October. Beyond this one-time event, we do not see any adverse trends in consumer charge-offs going forward. Commercial credit quality remains sound." Mr. Daberko concluded, "For 2006, we expect continued growth in revenue and lower expenses, aided by our Best In Class initiative which is now fully under way. We also will be open to targeted acquisitions to enhance our presence in certain markets, such as our recently announced plans to acquire Forbes First Financial Corporation, an eight branch bank in St. Louis." Fourth Quarter Charges As noted, fourth quarter 2005 results included pretax charges aggregating $115 million, or $75 million after-tax ($.12 per diluted share), as follows: $56 million ($.06 per share) of severance and other costs associated with Best In Class implementation, a $29 million loss ($.03 per share) on the securitization of indirect auto loans pursuant to the discontinuance of this business, and $30 million ($.03 per share) of contributions expense related to securities donated to the Corporation's charitable foundation. In addition, the fourth quarter included other income and expense items as described later in this release. Net Interest Income and Margin Tax-equivalent net interest income was $1.2 billion for the fourth quarter of 2005, consistent with the preceding and year earlier periods. Net interest margin was 3.74% compared with 3.72% for the third quarter of 2005 and 4.01% for the fourth quarter of 2004. The lower margin reflects a flatter yield curve, a lower spread on mortgages held for sale, and the effects of narrower commercial and consumer loan spreads. For the full year, tax-equivalent net interest income was $4.7 billion, up 6% from 2004. Net interest margin was 3.74% in 2005 versus 4.02% in 2004. Higher levels of earning assets more than offset the effects of a lower net interest margin in 2005. During the fourth quarter of 2005, the Corporation reclassified the amortization of certain deferred loan origination costs from noninterest income to net interest income which had the effect of reducing reported net interest margin, with no effect on net income. Results for prior periods have been reclassified to conform with the current presentation. Loans and Deposits Average portfolio loans for the fourth quarter of 2005 increased 7% compared with the same period in 2004 due to strong commercial, residential real estate and home equity lending. Compared with the third quarter of 2005, average portfolio loans decreased, reflecting the sale or securitization of $3.6 billion of consumer home equity and auto loans during the fourth quarter. Management expects to sell or securitize more of its National Home Equity and First Franklin loan production in future periods. Average core deposits, excluding mortgage-banking escrow balances, were $64 billion for the fourth quarter, up slightly from the preceding quarter and the fourth quarter of 2004. Retail deposits continued to grow, while corporate balances declined somewhat due to higher interest rates. Noninterest Income Fees and other income for the fourth quarter of 2005 were $768 million, compared with $748 million in the third quarter of 2005 and $727 million in the fourth quarter of 2004, excluding the gain on the sale of National Processing described earlier. Mortgage banking revenue increased on both a linked-quarter and year-over-year basis. Net hedging gains on mortgage servicing rights (MSRs) were $15 million and $43 million pretax in the fourth and third quarters of 2005, respectively, versus net hedging losses of $10 million pretax in the fourth quarter of last year. Deposit service charges for the fourth quarter of 2005 grew 13% compared with the fourth quarter of last year and 2% compared with the preceding quarter, reflecting growth in both the number of accounts and fee-generating transactions. Comparisons of fees and other income on both a linked quarter and year-over-year basis are affected by several unusual or nonrecurring items. Fees and other income for the fourth quarter of 2005 included an $18 million gain on the sale of home equity lines and a $29 million loss on the securitization of indirect auto loans. For the fourth quarter of 2004, fees and other income included a $714 million of gain on the sale of National Processing and a $14 million gain on the sale of branches in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. For the full year, fees and other income were $3.3 billion in 2005, down from $3.7 billion in 2004, exclusive of the gain on the sale of National Processing. Fees and other income for 2004 contained $409 million of payment processing revenue which was substantially eliminated with the sale of National Processing. Other divestiture activity affecting year-over-year comparisons include a $16 million gain on the sale of Madison Bank & Trust in 2005, versus a $62 million gain on the sale of the Bond Trust Administration business in 2004, and the gain on the sale of Michigan branches described above. Mortgage banking revenue for 2005 was $1.1 billion compared with $1.2 billion in 2004, inclusive of net MSR pretax hedging gains of $286 million and $388 million, respectively. $88.6 billion of conforming and nonconforming mortgages were originated in 2005, compared to $94.8 billion in the prior year. Noninterest Expense Noninterest expense was $1.3 billion for the fourth quarter of 2005, up $113 million from the third quarter of 2005, and $25 million from the year earlier period. The fourth quarter of 2005 included $56 million of severance and other costs related to the Corporation's Best In Class initiative and a $30 million charitable contribution. The fourth quarter of 2004 contained $17 million of expenses associated with the sale of National Processing and $39 million of acquisition integration expenses. For the year 2005, noninterest expense was $4.8 billion, compared with $4.5 billion in 2004, including the full year effect of acquisitions completed during 2004, as well as the items described above. In addition, noninterest expense for 2005 included $45 million of acquisition integration costs, a $29 million one-time adjustment for lease accounting, and $19 million of impairment charges on buildings to be sold, partially offset by a $22 million insurance settlement for previously incurred auto lease residual losses. Noninterest expense for 2004 included $74 million of acquisition integration costs, as well as expenses associated with National Processing, which was sold in October 2004. Income Tax Expense The effective tax rate for 2005 was 33% compared with 32% for 2004. The effective tax rate in 2004 reflects a lower rate applied to the gain on the sale of National Processing. In addition, $11 million of net tax benefits were recognized in 2005 ($25 million in the fourth quarter), versus $67 million in 2004 ($44 million in the fourth quarter), based on the regular reassessment of required tax accruals. Credit Quality The provision for credit losses for the fourth quarter of 2005 was $132 million compared with $56 million in the preceding quarter and $81 million in the fourth quarter of 2004. The linked quarter and year-over-year increase reflects higher commercial and consumer net charge-offs, as well as a $20 million one-time provision for estimated consumer bankruptcy losses that have not yet been realized. Net charge-offs were $138 million in the fourth quarter of 2005, compared with $83 million and $104 million in the preceding period and the year-earlier periods, respectively. For the full year, the loan loss provision for 2005 was $284 million, down from $323 million last year, reflecting improvement in commercial credit quality, offset somewhat by a higher level of consumer losses. Net charge- offs were $380 million in 2005 compared with $346 million a year ago. The higher charge-offs in 2005 were due to losses resulting from higher consumer bankruptcies, as noted above. Nonperforming assets were $596 million at December 31, 2005, up from $563 million at December 31, 2004. The increase in nonperforming loans reflects growth in the loan portfolio and the classification of certain airline related credits to nonperforming status. As a percentage of period-end portfolio loans, nonperforming assets were .56% at both December 31, 2005 and 2004. The allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2005 was $1.1 billion, or 1.03% of portfolio loans compared with $1.2 billion or 1.19% of portfolio loans as of December 31, 2004. Balance Sheet At December 31, 2005, total assets were $142.4 billion, and stockholders' equity was $12.6 billion or 8.86% of assets. Tangible common equity as a percentage of tangible assets was 6.57%, consistent with the preceding quarter and previously stated targets for this ratio, versus 6.83% a year ago. The decrease in the tangible common equity ratio in 2005 was mainly due to share repurchases. The Corporation repurchased 14.7 million shares of its common stock during the fourth quarter of 2005, bringing the repurchases for the full year to 43.5 million shares. As of December 31, 2005, the Corporation had authorization to repurchase an additional 33.6 million shares. Management intends to continue repurchases in 2006, subject to market conditions and maintenance of targeted capital ratios. At December 31, 2005, total deposits were $84.0 billion, including core deposits of $68.4 billion. In December 2005, the Corporation signed a definitive agreement to purchase privately-held Forbes First Financial Corporation, a bank holding company with approximately $500 million of assets, operating eight branches and three limited service locations in the St. Louis, Missouri market. Completion of this transaction is expected to occur in the second quarter of 2006, subject to shareholder and regulatory approvals.
