FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
SANTANDER HOLDINGS USA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q of Santander Holdings USA, Inc. (“SHUSA” or the “Company”) contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 regarding the financial condition, results of operations, business plans and future performance of the Company. Words such as “may,” “could,” “should,” “looking forward,” “will,” “would,” “believe,” “expect,” “hope,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “assume," "goal," "seek" or similar expressions are intended to indicate forward-looking statements.

Although SHUSA believes that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable as of the date on which the statements are made, these statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties based on various factors and assumptions, many of which are beyond the Company's control. Among the factors that could cause SHUSA’s financial performance to differ materially from that suggested by forward-looking statements are:

the effects of regulation and/or policies of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve”), the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC"), the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (the “OCC”) and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (the “CFPB”), and other changes in monetary and fiscal policies and regulations, including policies that affect market interest rates and money supply, as well as in the impact of changes in and interpretations of generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"), the failure to adhere to which could subject SHUSA to formal or informal regulatory compliance and enforcement actions and result in fines, penalties, restitution and other costs and expenses, changes in our business practice, and reputational harm;
SHUSA’s ability to manage credit risk that may increase to the extent our loans are concentrated by loan type, industry segment, borrower type or location of the borrower or collateral;
the slowing or reversal of the current U.S. economic expansion and the strength of the U.S. economy in general and regional and local economies in which SHUSA conducts operations in particular, which may affect, among other things, the level of non-performing assets, charge-offs, and provisions for credit losses;
inflation, interest rate, market and monetary fluctuations, which may, among other things, reduce net interest margins and impact funding sources and the ability to originate and distribute financial products in the primary and secondary markets;
Santander Consumer USA Inc.'s ("SC's") agreement with Fiat Chrysler Automobiles US LLC ("FCA") may not result in currently anticipated levels of growth, is subject to performance conditions that could result in termination of the agreement, and is also subject to an option giving FCA the right to acquire an equity participation in the Chrysler Capital portion of SC's business;
the pursuit of protectionist trade or other related policies, including tariffs by the U.S., its global trading partners, and/or other countries;
adverse movements and volatility in debt and equity capital markets and adverse changes in the securities markets, including those related to the financial condition of significant issuers in SHUSA’s investment portfolio;
SHUSA's ability to grow revenue, manage expenses, attract and retain highly-skilled people and raise capital necessary to achieve its business goals and comply with regulatory requirements;
SHUSA’s ability to effectively manage its capital and liquidity, including approval of its capital plans by its regulators and its ability to continue to receive dividends from its subsidiaries or other investments;
changes in credit ratings assigned to SHUSA or its subsidiaries;
the ability to manage risks inherent in our businesses, including through effective use of systems and controls, insurance, derivatives and capital management;
SHUSA’s ability to timely develop competitive new products and services in a changing environment that are responsive to the needs of SHUSA's customers and are profitable to SHUSA, the success of our marketing efforts to customers, and the potential for new products and services to impose additional unexpected costs, losses, or other liabilities not anticipated at their initiation, and expose SHUSA to increased operational risk;
competitors of SHUSA may have greater financial resources or lower costs, or be subject to different regulatory requirements than SHUSA, may innovate more effectively, or may develop products and technology that enable those competitors to compete more successfully than SHUSA and cause SHUSA to lose business or market share;
consumers and small businesses may decide not to use banks for their financial transactions, which could impact our net income;
changes in customer spending, investment or savings behavior;
loss of customer deposits that could increase our funding costs;
the ability of SHUSA and its third-party vendors to convert, maintain and upgrade, as necessary, SHUSA’s data processing and other information technology ("IT") infrastructure on a timely and acceptable basis, within projected cost estimates and without significant disruption to our business;
SHUSA's ability to control operational risks, data security breach risks and outsourcing risks, and the possibility of errors in quantitative models SHUSA uses to manage its business, including as a result of cyberattacks, technological failure, human error, fraud or malice, and the possibility that SHUSA's controls will prove insufficient, fail or be circumvented;
the ability of certain European member countries to continue to service their debt and the risk that a weakened European economy could negatively affect U.S.-based financial institutions, counterparties with which SHUSA does business, as well as the stability of global financial markets, including economic instability and recessionary conditions in Europe and the eventual exit of the United Kingdom from the European Union;
changes to income tax laws and regulations and the outcome of ongoing tax audits by federal, state and local income tax authorities that may require SHUSA to pay additional taxes or recover fewer overpayments compared to what has been accrued or paid as of period-end;
the costs and effects of regulatory or judicial proceedings, including possible business restrictions resulting from such proceedings;
adverse publicity, and negative public opinion, whether specific to SHUSA or regarding other industry participants or industry-wide factors, or other reputational harm; and
acts of terrorism or domestic or foreign military conflicts; and acts of God, including natural disasters.

NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Introduction

Santander Holdings USA, Inc. ("SHUSA" or the "Company") is the parent company (the "Parent Company") of Santander Bank, National Association (the "Bank" or "SBNA"), a national banking association; Santander Consumer USA Holdings Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, "SC"), a consumer finance company; Santander BanCorp (together with its subsidiaries, "Santander BanCorp"), a financial holding company headquartered in Puerto Rico that offers a full range of financial services through its wholly-owned banking subsidiary, Banco Santander Puerto Rico ("BSPR"); Santander Securities LLC ("SSLLC"), a broker-dealer headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts; Banco Santander International ("BSI"), an Edge corporation located in Miami, Florida that offers a full range of banking services to foreign individuals and corporations based primarily in Latin America; and Santander Investment Securities Inc. ("SIS"), a registered broker-dealer located in New York providing services in investment banking, institutional sales, and trading and offering research reports of Latin American and European equity and fixed income securities; as well as several other subsidiaries. SSLLC, SIS, and another SHUSA subsidiary, Santander Asset Management, LLC (“SAM”), are registered investment advisers with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). SHUSA is headquartered in Boston and the Bank's home office is in Wilmington, Delaware. SHUSA is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Banco Santander, S.A. ("Santander"). The Parent Company's two largest subsidiaries by asset size and revenue are the Bank and SC.

The Bank’s primary business consists of attracting deposits and providing other retail banking services through its network of retail branches, and originating small business loans, middle market, large and global commercial loans, multifamily loans, residential mortgage loans, home equity lines of credit, and auto and other consumer loans throughout the Mid-Atlantic and Northeastern areas of the United States, focused throughout Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, and Delaware. The Bank uses its deposits, as well as other financing sources, to fund its loan and investment portfolios.

SC is a specialized consumer finance company focused on vehicle finance and third-party servicing. SC's primary business is the indirect origination and securitization of retail installment contracts ("RICs") principally through manufacturer-franchised dealers in connection with their sale of new and used vehicles to retail consumers.

In conjunction with a ten-year private label financing agreement with Fiat Chrysler Automobiles US LLC ("FCA") that became effective May 1, 2013 (the "Chrysler Agreement"), SC offers a full spectrum of auto financing products and services to FCA customers and dealers under the Chrysler Capital brand. These products and services include consumer RICs and leases, as well as dealer loans for inventory, construction, real estate, working capital and revolving lines of credit. Refer to Note 16 for additional details.

On June 28, 2019, SC entered into an amendment to the Chrysler Agreement, with FCA, which modified the Chrysler Agreement to, among other things, adjust certain performance metrics, exclusivity commitments and payment provisions under the Chrysler Agreement. The amendment also terminated the previously disclosed tolling agreement dated July 2018, between SC and FCA.

SC also originates vehicle loans through a web-based direct lending program, purchases vehicle RICs from other lenders, and services automobile and recreational and marine vehicle portfolios for other lenders. Additionally, SC has other relationships through which it provides personal loans, private-label revolving lines of credit and other consumer finance products.

As of June 30, 2019, SC was owned approximately 70.5% by SHUSA and 29.5% by other shareholders. SC Common Stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") under the trading symbol "SC."

On April 22, 2019, SBNA entered into an agreement with First Commonwealth Bank for the sale of 14 bank branches and four automated teller machines ("ATMs") located in central Pennsylvania, together with approximately $507 million of deposits and $113 million of retail and business loans (outstanding balances as of June 30, 2019). This transaction aligns with SHUSA’s strategy to reallocate capital to investments in core markets that will drive growth. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2019, with the recognition of an immaterial gain on sale.

NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Intermediate Holding Company ("IHC")

The enhanced prudential standards ("EPS") mandated by Section 165 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the "DFA")(the “Final Rule") were enacted by the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal Reserve") to strengthen regulatory oversight of foreign banking organizations ("FBOs"). Under the Final Rule, FBOs with over $50 billion of U.S. non-branch assets, including Santander, are required to consolidate U.S. subsidiary activities under an IHC. Due to its U.S. non-branch total consolidated asset size, Santander is subject to the Final Rule. As a result of this rule, Santander transferred substantially all of its equity interests in U.S. bank and non-bank subsidiaries previously outside the Company to the Company, which became an IHC effective July 1, 2016. These subsidiaries included Santander BanCorp, BSI, SIS and SSLLC, as well as several other subsidiaries. On July 1, 2017, an additional Santander subsidiary, SFS, a finance company located in Puerto Rico, was transferred to the Company. Additionally, effective July 2, 2018, Santander transferred SAM to the IHC. The contribution of SAM to the Company transferred approximately $5.4 million of assets, $1.0 million of liabilities, and $4.4 million of equity to the Company.

Although SAM is an entity under common control, its results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows are immaterial to the historical financial results of the Company. As a result, the Company elected to report the results of SAM on a prospective basis beginning July 2, 2018. As a result of the contribution of SAM, SHUSA's net income is understated by $0.6 million and $1.0 million for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018. These amounts are immaterial to the overall presentation of the Company's financial statements for each of the periods presented.

Basis of Presentation

These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries, and certain special purpose financing trusts that are considered VIEs. The Company generally consolidates VIEs for which it is deemed to be the primary beneficiary and voting interest entities ("VOEs") in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") and pursuant to SEC regulations. Additionally, where applicable, the Company's accounting policies conform to the accounting and reporting guidelines prescribed by bank regulatory authorities. In the opinion of management, the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature necessary for a fair statement of the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, Statements of Operations, Statements of Comprehensive Income, Statements of Stockholder's Equity and Statements of Cash Flows ("SCF") for the periods indicated, and contain adequate disclosure to make the information presented not misleading. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Corrections to Previously Reported Amounts

We have made certain corrections to previously disclosed amounts to correct for immaterial errors related to our RIC portfolio.

Certain accounting for RICs and auto loans

As discussed in Note 1 - "Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies" in the 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company identified and corrected two immaterial errors. The Company has revised its comparative Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of June 30, 2018 included within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Significant Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities, as of the date of the financial statements, and the amount of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and those differences may be material.

12




NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Management has identified (i) the allowance for loan losses and the reserve for unfunded lending commitments, (ii) estimates of expected residual values of leases vehicles subject to operating leases, (iii) accretion of discounts and subvention on RICs, (iv) goodwill, (v) fair value of financial instruments, and (vi) income taxes as the Company's significant accounting policies and estimates, in that they are important to the portrayal of the Company's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows and the accounting estimates related thereto require management's most difficult, subjective and complex judgments as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.

As of June 30, 2019, with the exception of the items noted in the section captioned "Recently Adopted Accounting Standards" below, there have been no significant changes to the Company's accounting policies as disclosed in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

Since January 1, 2019, the Company adopted the following Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs"):
ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The Company adopted this standard as of January 1, 2019, resulting in the recognition of a right of-use (“ROU”) asset ($664.1 million) and lease liability ($705.7 million) in the Consolidated Balance Sheet for all operating leases with a term greater than 12 months. The Company adopted the ASU using the modified retrospective approach, with application at the adoption date and a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. Under this approach, comparative periods were not adjusted. We elected the package of practical expedients permitted under transition guidance, which allowed us to carry forward the historical lease classification. We also elected not to recognize a lease liability and associated ROU asset for short-term leases. We did not elect (1) the hindsight practical expedient when determining the lease term and (2) the practical expedient to not separate non-lease components from lease components. The ASU required the Company to accelerate the recognition of $18.7 million of previously deferred gains on sale-leaseback transactions, with such impact recorded to the opening balance of Retained earnings.

The ROU asset and lease liability will subsequently be de-recognized in a manner that effectively yields a straight-line lease expense over the lease term. Lessee accounting requirements for finance leases (previously described as capital leases) and lessor accounting requirements for operating, sales-type, and direct financing leases (sales-type and direct financing leases were both previously referred to as capital leases) are largely unchanged. This standard did not materially affect our Consolidated Statements of Operations or SCF.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract. This ASU aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. The capitalized costs will be presented with Other assets on the balance sheet, and the amortization expense will be presented in the Technology, outside service, and marketing expense line of the Statement of Operations. The Company has early adopted this standard effective January 1, 2019 and it did not have a material impact on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

The adoption of the following ASUs did not have an impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations:
ASU 2017-08, Receivables - Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities.
ASU 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260); Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480); Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): (Part I) Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features, (Part II) Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests with a Scope Exception.
ASU 2018-07, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting.
ASU 2018-16, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), Inclusion of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) Overnight Index Swap (OIS) Rate as a Benchmark Interest Rate for Hedge Accounting Purposes.

NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Subsequent Events

The Company evaluated events from the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements on June 30, 2019 through the issuance of these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, and has determined that there have been no material events that would require recognition in its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements or disclosure in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 other than the events disclosed in Note 10.


NOTE 2. RECENT ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This guidance significantly changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. The standard will replace today’s “incurred loss” approach with an “expected loss” model for instruments measured at amortized cost. For AFS debt securities, entities will be required to record allowances rather than reduce the carrying amount, as they do today under the OTTI model. The standard also simplifies the accounting model for purchased credit-impaired debt securities and loans. The guidance will be effective for the Company for the first reporting period beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within that year. The Company does not intend to adopt this ASU early and is currently evaluating the impact the new guidance will have on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows; however, it is expected that the new current expected credit loss model will alter the assumptions used in calculating the Company's allowance for credit losses ("ACL"), given the change to estimated losses for the estimated life of the financial asset, and will likely result in material increases to the Company's ACL and related decreases to capital ratios.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. This ASU removes the requirement to disclose the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the policy for timing of transfers between levels, and the valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. This ASU requires disclosure of changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in OCI (loss) for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period and the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. This new guidance will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect the new guidance will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

In addition to those described in detail above, the Company is in the process of evaluating ASU 2018-17, Consolidation (Topic 810): Targeted Improvements to Related Party Guidance for Variable Interest Entities, but does not expect it to have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations, or disclosures.

OTTI
 
Management evaluates all investment securities in an unrealized loss position for OTTI on a quarterly basis. An unrealized loss exists when the current fair value of an individual security is less than its amortized cost basis. The OTTI assessment is a subjective process requiring the use of judgments and assumptions. During the securities-level assessments, consideration is given to (1) the intent not to sell and probability that the Company will not be required to sell the security before recovery of its cost basis to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, as well as company news and current events, and (3) the ability to collect the future expected cash flows. Key assumptions utilized to forecast expected cash flows may include loss severity, expected cumulative loss percentage, cumulative loss percentage to date, weighted average Fair Isaac Corporation ("FICO®") scores and weighted average loan-to-value ("LTV") ratio, rating or scoring, credit ratings and market spreads, as applicable.

The Company assesses and recognizes OTTI in accordance with applicable accounting standards. Under these standards, if the Company determines that impairment on its debt securities exists and it has made the decision to sell the security or it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security prior to recovery of its amortized cost basis, it recognizes the entire portion of the unrealized loss in earnings. If the Company has not made a decision to sell the security and it does not expect that it will be required to sell the security prior to the recovery of the amortized cost basis but the Company has determined that OTTI exists, it recognizes the credit-related portion of the decline in value of the security in earnings.

16




NOTE 3. INVESTMENT SECURITIES (continued)

The Company did not record any OTTI related to its investment securities for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 or 2018.

Management has concluded that the unrealized losses on its debt securities for which it has not recognized OTTI (which were comprised of 695 individual securities at June 30, 2019) are temporary in nature since (1) they reflect the increase in interest rates, which lowers the current fair value of the securities, (2) they are not related to the underlying credit quality of the issuers, (3) the entire contractual principal and interest due on these securities is currently expected to be recoverable, (4) the Company does not intend to sell these investments at a loss and (5) it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell the investments before recovery of the amortized cost basis, which for the Company's debt securities may be at maturity. Accordingly, the Company has concluded that the impairment on these securities is not other than temporary.
