Core income in the 1999 first quarter excluded a credit of $74 million related to after-tax restructuring-related items and a charge of $127 million reflecting the cumulative effect of adopting several new accounting standards as described in Note 2 of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Net income including these amounts was $2.362 billion ($0.68 per diluted share), up $201 million or 9% from the year-ago quarter. Excluding those amounts, core income return on common equity was 23.6% for the quarter compared to 21.4% a year ago. The Board of Directors on April 19, 1999 declared a three-for-two split in Citigroup's common stock, which is payable in the form of a 50% stock dividend on May 28, 1999 to stockholders of record on May 3, 1999. Current and prior year earnings per share information has been restated to reflect this split. The Board of Directors also approved an increase in the quarterly common stock dividend from 12 to 14 cents per share on a post-split basis (from 18 to 21 cents per share on a pre-split basis), payable May 28, 1999 to stockholders of record on May 3, 1999. Core income growth was led by Global Corporate and Investment Bank, up $319 million or 31% to $1.355 billion, and a $259 million or 33% increase in Global Consumer to $1.049 billion. In addition, SSB Citi Asset Management Group ("Asset Management") grew $11 million or 16% to $80 million. Investment Activities core income of $93 million was down $309 million or 77% from a year ago reflecting lower realized gains from sales of investments and lower venture capital revenues. Corporate/Other net loss increased by $26 million. The increase in Global Corporate and Investment Bank core income reflected record results at Salomon Smith Barney of $648 million, up $205 million or 46%, as strong revenue increases particularly in the retail business, record fixed income underwriting and trading revenues outpaced expense growth. Emerging Markets was up $57 million or 22% to $321 million, reflecting growth in trading, lending and trade finance, and Global Relationship Banking was up $39 million or 25% to $197 million, from improved trading and transaction banking results. Commercial Lines was up $18 million or 11% to $189 million as favorable prior-year loss development and expense control offset revenue declines. Global Consumer core income growth resulted from strong growth in virtually all businesses, particularly in North America where Cards business income of $268 million grew $115 million or 75%. Business income in the International businesses grew 20% to $281 million and the Insurance businesses grew 14% to $340 million. Global Consumer business income growth was achieved even as spending continued on global advertising, marketing, and distribution development initiatives, and on the technological enhancements of e-Citi. Adjusted revenues, net of interest expense, of $14.7 billion in the 1999 first quarter were up $1.4 billion or 11% from 1998. Revenues in Global Consumer increased $1.2 billion or 21% to $7.1 billion led primarily by Cards, up $573 million or 40%, including the $378 million impact of the Universal Card Services ("UCS") acquisition in April 1998. Also contributing to Global Consumer growth was the International businesses, up $280 million or 19% to $1.8 billion, the Insurance businesses, up $214 million or 11% to $2.2 billion, and Consumer Finance Services, up $67 million or 22% to $376 million. Consumer growth was driven largely by volume growth in customers and accounts in virtually all business lines, complemented by strategic acquisitions. Global Corporate and Investment Bank revenues of $7.1 billion were up $616 million or 10%, principally reflecting a Salomon Smith Barney rebound of $423 million or 14% to $3.3 billion. Emerging Markets increased $177 million or 18% to $1.1 billion, Global Relationship Banking was up $101 million or 10% to $1.1 billion, and Commercial Lines decreased $85 million or 5% to $1.5 billion. Asset Management segment revenues were up $49 million or 16% to $354 million reflecting continued growth in assets under management, and Corporate/Other revenues of ($71) million were down $18 million primarily reflecting the absence of gains on dispositions of certain corporate assets recorded in the 1998 first quarter. The $461 million decrease in Investment Activities revenues to $158 million was a result of lower realized gains from sales of investments and lower venture capital revenues. Adjusted net interest revenues, including the effect of credit card securitization, of $5.9 billion were up $805 million or 16% from 1998, reflecting the acquisitions of UCS and certain businesses in Latin America consumer, and business volume growth in most other markets. Insurance premiums of $2.5 billion were up $186 million or 8%, reflecting solid growth in Personal Lines partially offset by a managed decline in Commercial Lines. Principal transactions revenues of $1.8 billion were up $405 million or 30% reflecting the broad-based rebound in trading activities. Adjusted commissions, asset management and administration fees, and other fee revenues of $3.7 billion were up $383 million or 11% primarily as a result of continued growth in assets under fee-based management to $430 billion. Realized gains from sale of investments was down $325 million to $53 million, reflecting lower levels of investment sales. Other income, excluding credit card securitization activity, of $660 million decreased $52 million from the year-ago quarter, primarily as a result of lower venture capital revenues. Adjusted operating expenses of $7.5 billion, which exclude the restructuring-related items, were up $712 million or 11% from the 1998 first quarter. Expenses increased in Global Consumer by 19%, reflecting UCS ($219 million) and other acquisitions, global advertising, marketing, and distribution initiatives, and electronic banking development efforts. Global Corporate and Investment 2 Bank expenses were up 5%, primarily attributable to increased spending on technology, volume-related increases, and costs associated with implementing plans to gain market share in selected emerging market countries. In 1999, the previously announced business improvement and integration initiatives, together with tighter management of non-customer expenses, are expected to yield gross annual pretax expense savings of approximately $2 billion. Through the end of the 1999 first quarter, the actions necessary to realize approximately $900 million of the targeted $2 billion of annualized pretax expense savings had been taken. There can be no assurance that the $2 billion projected cost savings will be achieved. This statement is a forward-looking statement within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. See "Forward-Looking Statements" on page 24. Restructuring-related items in the 1999 first quarter included a $211 million ($125 million after-tax) credit for the reversal of a portion of the 1997 charges and $81 million ($51 million after-tax) of accelerated depreciation related to the 1998 restructuring actions. In addition, core income was reduced by $127 million related to the adoption of several new accounting standards. See Notes 2 and 7 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional details. Adjusted provisions for benefits, claims, and credit losses were $3.4 billion in the quarter, up $314 million or 10% from the 1998 quarter. Policyholder benefits and claims increased 3% to $2.0 billion and the provision for credit losses increased 23% to $729 million. Global Consumer adjusted provisions for benefits, claims and credit losses of $2.4 billion in the 1999 first quarter were up $323 million or 16% from the 1998 quarter. The increase in managed net credit losses of $197 million or 20% primarily reflected the UCS acquisition ($167 million). The ratio of net credit losses to average managed loans was 2.61% compared to 2.65% a year ago. The managed consumer loan delinquency ratio (90 days or more past due) decreased to 2.09% from 2.29% a year ago. Global Corporate and Investment Bank provisions for benefits, claims, and credit losses of $976 million decreased $27 million or 3% from the 1998 first quarter, primarily reflecting the improvement in Commercial Lines prior-year loss development, partially offset by the impact of continued credit losses in Emerging Markets, mostly in Asia Pacific. Commercial cash-basis loans and other real estate owned of $2.1 billion at quarter-end were up 11% from a year earlier and were flat to year-end. The total provisions for benefits, claims, and credit losses as shown on the Consolidated Statement of Income were $2.8 billion in the 1999 first quarter, compared to $2.6 billion in the year-ago quarter, reflecting the items described above. Total capital (Tier 1 and Tier 2) was $56.5 billion or 11.56% of net risk-adjusted assets, and Tier 1 capital was $43.3 billion or 8.86% at March 31, 1999, compared to $55.0 billion or 11.43% and $41.8 billion or 8.68%, respectively, at December 31, 1998.

Business income in the International businesses grew 20%, reflecting increases in Europe, Middle East and Africa and Asia Pacific, and the effect of certain acquisitions in Latin America. Global Consumer business income growth was achieved even as spending continued on global advertising, marketing, and distribution development initiatives, and on the 3 technological enhancements of e-Citi. Net income of $1.011 billion in the 1999 first quarter included restructuring-related items of $38 million ($61 million pretax).

Net income of $61 million in the 1999 first quarter included restructuring-related items of $14 million ($22 million pretax). As shown in the following table, Citibanking grew accounts and customers deposits from the 1998 quarter. The decline in loans reflects a decrease in home equity loans due to increased industry wide mortgage refinancing activity.

Adjusted operating expenses declined $45 million or 11% from the 1998 first quarter reflecting expense management initiatives. The provision for credit losses improved to $27 million in 1999 first quarter from $31 million in 1998. The net credit loss ratio was 1.35% in the quarter, down from 1.51% a year ago. 4 Mortgage Banking First Quarter % -------------- In millions of dollars 1999 1998 Change - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total revenues, net of interest expense $169 $154 10 Total operating expenses 59 59 -- Provision for credit losses 3 13 (77) ------------------------ Income before taxes and minority interest 107 82 30 Income taxes 42 32 31 Minority interest, after-tax 5 -- NM ------------------------ Net income $ 60 $ 50 20 - -------------------------------------------------------========================= Average assets (in billions of dollars) $ 28 $ 25 12 Return on assets 0.87% 0.81% - -------------------------------------------------------========================= NM Not meaningful Mortgage Banking -- which provides mortgages and student loans to customers across North America -- reported net income of $60 million in the 1999 first quarter, up $10 million or 20% from 1998, reflecting higher revenue resulting from increased business volumes and a lower provision for credit losses.

The provision for credit losses of $3 million in the 1999 first quarter declined from $13 million in 1998. The net credit loss ratio was 0.20% in the quarter down from 0.42% a year ago, due to continued improvement in the mortgage portfolio. In the quarter, Citibank announced that it would acquire the principal operating assets and assume certain liabilities of Source One Mortgage Services Corp. The acquisition, which closed in the 1999 second quarter, will add approximately a $25 billion mortgage servicing/subservicing portfolio and 160 sales offices. Cards

(1) On a managed basis. (2) Adjusted for the effect of credit card securitization, the return on managed assets for Cards was 1.46% and 1.23% in the first quarters of 1999 and 1998, respectively. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cards -- U.S. bankcards (including Travelers Bank), Diners Club, and private label cards -- reported net income of $268 million, up $115 million or 75% from 1998, reflecting significant improvements in the U.S. bankcards business. 5 The April 1998 acquisition of Universal Card Services (UCS) from AT&T added $16.3 billion in managed customer receivables and 14 million accounts as of March 31, 1999. In the quarter, UCS contributed $378 million to revenues, $219 million to expenses, and $167 million to provision for credit losses, resulting in a net loss of approximately $2 million. These amounts included acquisition premium costs (including funding costs associated with the acquisition purchase premium). On March 31, 1999, Citibank acquired Mellon Bank's credit card portfolio which added approximately $1.9 billion in managed receivables and 800,000 accounts. Adjusted revenues, net of interest expense, of $1.988 billion increased $573 million or 40% ($195 million or 14% excluding UCS) from 1998, reflecting the acquisition of UCS, and in other U.S. bankcards portfolios increased delinquency and other risk-based charges due to pricing actions, lower funding costs, and higher interchange fee revenues. As shown in the following table, on a managed basis, the U.S. bankcards portfolio experienced strong growth in the quarter reflecting the acquisitions of UCS and Mellon Bank's credit card portfolio and the impact of enhanced target marketing efforts.

Total operating expenses of $748 million were up $297 million or 66% ($78 million or 17% excluding UCS), reflecting the acquisition of UCS and increased advertising and marketing in U.S. bankcards. The adjusted provision for credit losses in the 1999 first quarter was $816 million, up from $717 million in 1998, reflecting the inclusion of UCS offset by improvements in other U.S. bankcards portfolios. Managed net credit losses in U.S. bankcards were $784 million, or 4.72% of average managed loans ($617 million or 4.91% of average managed loans excluding UCS) compared to $676 million or 5.85% in 1998. The decline in the net credit loss ratio reflects moderating industry-wide bankruptcy trends and the effect of previously implemented credit risk management initiatives.

Also included are related credit insurance services provided through subsidiaries. The credit card operations of Commercial Credit Company are included in Cards. Business income was $81 million in the first quarter of 1999 compared to $59 million in the first quarter of 1998. Receivables grew 28% from the 1998 first quarter due to healthy business flow at Commercial Credit branches, cross-selling of Commercial Credit products through Primerica distribution channels and the acquisition of certain Associates First Capital branches. The total number of Commercial Credit branches rose to 1,143 at the end of the first quarter of 1999, up from 980 at year-end 1998. Net receivables at March 31, 1999 reached a record $12.9 billion compared to $11.9 billion at year-end 1998 and $10.1 billion at March 31, 1998. Much of the growth in 1999 in real estate-secured loans resulted from the continued strong performance of the $.M.A.R.T Loan(R) and 6 $.A.F.E.(R) Loan programs, which grew to $3.16 billion at March 31, 1999, a 31% increase over March 31, 1998, as well as solid sales in the branch network. During the first quarter of 1999, the average yield on owned receivables was 14.38%, down from 14.91% in the first quarter of 1998, reflecting the shift in the portfolio mix toward lower-risk real estate loans which have lower margins. At March 31, 1999, the owned portfolio consisted of 56% real estate-secured loans, 36% personal loans and 8% sales finance and other. Delinquencies in excess of 60 days on owned receivables were 1.78% at March 31, 1999, down from 1.90% at year-end 1998 and 1.82% at March 31, 1998. The charge-off rate on owned receivables of 2.38% in the first quarter of 1999 compared to 2.93% in the first quarter of 1998. Insurance Travelers Life and Annuity First Quarter % -------------- In millions of dollars 1999 1998 Change - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total revenues, net of interest expense $771 $704 10 Policyholder claims and benefits 442 416 6 Total operating expenses 107 101 6 ------------------------ Income before taxes 222 187 19 Income taxes 75 65 15 ------------------------ Net income (1) $147 $122 20 - --------------------------------------------------------======================== (1) Excludes investment gains/losses included in Investment Activities segment. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net income was $147 million in the first quarter of 1999 compared to $122 million in the first quarter of 1998. The 20% improvement in 1999 reflects increased business volume and was offset by lower investment yields versus the prior year period. During the first quarter of 1999 this business achieved strong double-digit business volume growth in annuity account balances and life and long-term care premiums reflecting the benefits of strong momentum from significant cross-selling initiatives. The decline in yields was substantially offset by earnings on an increased capital base created by business volume growth. The cross-selling initiative of Travelers Life and Annuity products through the Primerica, Citibank, and Salomon Smith Barney Financial Consultants distribution channels, along with improved sales through The Copeland Companies (Copeland), and a nationwide network of independent agents and strong group sales through various intermediaries reflect the ongoing effort to build market share by strengthening relationships in key distribution channels. The following table shows net written premiums and deposits by product line. First Quarter % ------------------ In millions of dollars 1999 1998 Change - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Deferred annuities Fixed $ 194 $ 265 (27) Variable 976 647 51 Payout annuities 88 81 9 GICs and other group annuities 1,792 779 130 Individual life insurance Direct periodic premiums and deposits 85 76 11 Single premium deposits 16 24 (32) Reinsurance (17) (15) 14 Individual long-term care insurance 53 45 18 ----------------------------- $ 3,187 $ 1,902 68 - --------------------------------------------------============================== The majority of the annuity business and a substantial portion of the life business written by Travelers Life and Annuity are accounted for as investment contracts, with the result that the premium and deposits collected are not included in revenues. Significant deferred annuities sales, combined with favorable market returns from variable annuities, drove account balances to $22.0 billion at March 31, 1999, up 20% from $18.3 billion at March 31, 1998. Net written premiums and deposits for deferred annuities increased 28% in the first quarter of 1999 to $1.17 billion from $912 million in the first quarter of 1998. The strong sales reflect the marketing initiatives at Salomon Smith Barney, Copeland's penetration of the small company segment of the 401(k) market, new products introduced into the Primerica and Citibank distribution channels as well as strong core agent production. 7 Payout and group annuity account balances and benefit reserves reached $14.54 billion at March 31, 1999, up 19% from $12.23 billion at the end of 1998 first quarter. The payout and group annuity businesses reflect momentum from rating upgrades, variable rate guaranteed investment contracts and structured finance transactions. Net written premiums and deposits (excluding the Company's employee pension plan deposits) in 1999 were $1.88 billion, up 119% from $860 million in 1998. Direct periodic premiums and deposits for individual life insurance of $85 million in 1999 were 11% ahead of the $76 million in 1998 reflecting strong agency results. Life insurance in force was $56.6 billion at March 31, 1999, up from $55.4 billion at year-end 1998 and $52.4 billion at March 31, 1998. Net written premiums for the growing individual long-term care insurance line reached $53 million in 1999 compared to $45 million in 1998. Primerica Financial Services First Quarter % -------------- In millions of dollars 1999 1998 Change - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total revenues, net of interest expense $432 $400 8 Policyholder claims and benefits 120 121 (1) Total operating expenses 142 132 8 ------------------------ Income before taxes 170 147 16 Income taxes 60 52 15 ------------------------ Net income (1) $110 $ 95 16 - -------------------------------------------------------========================= (1) Excludes investment gains/losses included in Investment Activities segment. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net income was $110 million in 1999 compared to $95 million in 1998. The 16% improvement in 1999 reflects continued success at cross-selling a range of products, growth in life insurance in force, favorable mortality experience and disciplined expense management. Substantial increases in total production and cross-selling initiatives were achieved during the 1999 quarter as Primerica continued to benefit from greater application of the Financial Needs Analysis (FNA) -- the diagnostic tool that enhances the ability of the Personal Financial Analysts to address client needs. During the first quarter of 1999, 142,000 FNAs were submitted compared to 140,000 in the first quarter of 1998. Earned premiums net of reinsurance were $267 million in the first quarter of 1999 compared to $260 million in the first quarter of 1998, including $252 million and $245 million, respectively, for Primerica individual term life policies. Total face amount of issued term life insurance was $13.6 billion in the first quarter of 1999 compared to $13.0 billion in the first quarter of 1998. The number of policies issued was 51,600 in the first quarter of 1999, compared to 51,100 in the first quarter of 1998. Life insurance in force reached $386.3 billion at March 31, 1999 compared to $383.7 billion at year-end 1998 and $372.5 billion at March 31, 1998, and continued to reflect good policy persistency. In recent years, Primerica has leveraged cross-selling through the FNA to expand its business beyond life insurance and now offers its clients a greater array of financial products and services, delivered personally through the company's 150,000 independent representatives. Primerica sales of Travelers variable annuities continued to show momentum, reaching net written premiums and deposits of $223 million in the first quarter of 1999, up 77% from $126 million in the prior year period. This increase reflects the increased emphasis placed on cross-selling initiatives in the latter part of 1998, with the current period sales predominately reflecting sales of Travelers Life and Annuity variable annuity products. Cash advanced on $.M.A.R.T. Loan(R) and $.A.F.E.(R) Loan products underwritten by Travelers Bank & Trust, fsb and Commercial Credit, respectively, was $419 million in the first quarter of 1999, up 32% from the comparable period last year. Primerica sales of TRAVELERS SECURE(R) property and casualty insurance products demonstrated strong growth, with premiums up 51% to $57 million in the first quarter of 1999, compared to $38 million in the same period in the year prior. Mutual fund sales reached $784 million for the 1999 first quarter, compared to $769 million in last year's first quarter. During the first quarter of 1999, Salomon Smith Barney mutual funds accounted for 64% of Primerica's U.S. sales and 52% of total sales. 8 Personal Lines First Quarter % -------------- In millions of dollars 1999 1998 Change - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total revenues, net of interest expense $983 $868 13 Total operating expenses 246 221 11 Claims and claim adjustment expenses 594 503 18 ------------------------ Income before taxes and minority interest 143 144 (1) Income taxes 44 46 (4) Minority interest, after-tax 16 16 -- ------------------------ Net income (1) $ 83 $ 82 1 - -------------------------------------------------------========================= (1) Excludes investment gains/losses included in Investment Activities segment. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net income of $83 million in the first quarter of 1999 was up slightly from the prior year quarter, as a 16% increase in earned premiums was offset by modest medical cost increases and less favorable prior-year reserve development. Net written premiums in the first quarter of 1999 include an adjustment associated with the termination of a quota share reinsurance arrangement, which increased homeowners premiums written by independent agents by $72 million. Net written premiums, excluding this transaction, increased 13%, driven by increased production across all lines through both independent agent and new distribution channels. The following table shows net written premiums by product line: First Quarter % ----------------- In millions of dollars 1999 1998 Change - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Personal automobile $620 $556 11 Homeowners and other 364 250 45 ------------------------------ Total net written premiums $984 $806 22 - --------------------------------------------------============================== Personal Lines net written premiums for the first quarter of 1999 were $912 million (excluding the adjustment discussed above) compared to $806 million in the first quarter of 1998. The 1999 increase compared to 1998 primarily reflects growth in target markets served by independent agents and growth in affinity group marketing, joint marketing arrangements and the TRAVELERS SECURE(R) program. Catastrophe losses, net of taxes and reinsurance, were $8 million in the first quarter of 1999 compared to $9 million in the first quarter of 1998. Catastrophe losses in 1999 were due to a wind and ice storm in the Midwest and the Northeast. Catastrophe losses in 1998 were due to ice storms in northern New York and New England and windstorms on the East Coast. Statutory and GAAP combined ratios (before allocation of corporate expenses) for Personal Lines were as follows: First Quarter ---------------- 1999 1998 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Statutory Loss and LAE ratio (1) 66.6% 65.2% Underwriting expense ratio 27.4 28.0 --------------- Combined ratio 94.0 93.2 - ----------------------------------------------------------------================ GAAP Loss and LAE ratio (1) 66.6% 65.2% Underwriting expense ratio 24.8 27.1 --------------- Combined ratio 91.4 92.3 - ----------------------------------------------------------------================ (1) LAE represents loss adjustment expenses. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- GAAP combined ratios for Personal Lines differ from statutory combined ratios primarily due to the deferral and amortization of certain expenses for GAAP reporting purposes only. The 1999 statutory and GAAP combined ratios for Personal Lines (excluding the adjustment associated with the termination of a quota share reinsurance arrangement) would have been 93.2% and 93.4%, respectively. The increase in the first quarter of 1999 statutory and GAAP Loss and LAE ratio compared to the first quarter of 1998 was primarily due to a modest increase in medical costs and a decrease in favorable prior-year reserve development in the automobile bodily injury line. The decrease in the statutory and GAAP underwriting expense ratio in the first quarter of 1999 compared to the first quarter of 1998 reflects greater efficiency through the leveraging of the expense base as premiums grow. 9 International Consumer Europe, Middle East & Africa First Quarter % --------------- In millions of dollars 1999 1998 Change - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total revenues, net of interest expense $534 $471 13 Adjusted operating expenses (1) 338 318 6 Provision for credit losses 78 70 11 -------------------------- Business income before taxes 118 83 42 Income taxes 44 32 38 -------------------------- Business income 74 51 45 Restructuring-related items, after-tax 6 -- NM -------------------------- Net income $ 68 $ 51 33 - ------------------------------------------------------========================== Average assets (in billions of dollars) $ 21 $ 21 -- Return on assets 1.31% 0.98% - ------------------------------------------------------========================== Excluding restructuring-related items Return on assets 1.43% 0.98% - ------------------------------------------------------========================== (1) Excludes restructuring-related items.

Net income of $68 million in the 1999 first quarter included restructuring-related items of $6 million ($10 million pretax). As shown in the following table, EMEA reported 7% account growth from a year ago primarily reflecting loan growth, including credit cards. First Quarter % ------------------- In billions of dollars 1999 1998 Change - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Accounts (in millions) 9.6 9.0 7 Average customer deposits $16.8 $16.5 2 Average loans 16.3 15.0 9 - -----------------------------------------------------=========================== Revenues, net of interest expense, of $534 million in the 1999 first quarter grew $63 million or 13% from a year ago, reflecting loan growth, improved spreads, and higher investment product fees, principally in Western Europe. Adjusted operating expenses of $338 million were up $20 million or 6% from 1998, reflecting costs associated with franchise expansion in Central and Eastern Europe and credit card expansion efforts in certain countries in Western Europe. The provision for credit losses in the 1999 first quarter was $78 million, up from $70 million in 1998. The net credit loss ratio was 1.81% in the quarter compared with 1.78% in 1998. 10 Asia Pacific First Quarter % --------------- In millions of dollars 1999 1998 Change - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total revenues, net of interest expense $519 $423 23 Adjusted operating expenses (1) 267 237 13 Provision for credit losses 88 50 76 -------------------------- Business income before taxes 164 136 21 Income taxes 62 53 17 -------------------------- Business income 102 83 23 Restructuring-related items, after-tax 7 -- NM -------------------------- Net income $ 95 $ 83 14 - ------------------------------------------------------========================== Average assets (in billions of dollars) $ 29 $ 27 7 Return on assets 1.33% 1.25% - ------------------------------------------------------========================== Excluding restructuring-related items Return on assets 1.43% 1.25% - ------------------------------------------------------========================== (1) Excludes restructuring-related items. NM Not meaningful - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Asia Pacific (including Japan and Australia) -- which provides banking and lending services, including credit and charge cards, to customers throughout the region -- reported business income of $102 million in the 1999 first quarter, up from $83 million a year ago, reflecting growth throughout the region, particularly in Japan, as the business rebounded from a weak 1998 first quarter. Net income of $95 million in the 1999 first quarter included restructuring-related items of $7 million ($11 million pretax). As shown in the following table, Asia Pacific accounts grew 25% from the 1998 first quarter, driven by double digit growth in both customer deposits and loans, reflecting a "flight to quality" in the region. First Quarter % ---------------- In billions of dollars 1999 1998 Change - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Accounts (in millions) 8.0 6.4 25 Average customer deposits $40.2 $33.2 21 Average loans 22.1 19.5 13 - --------------------------------------------------------======================== Revenues, net of interest expense, of $519 million increased $96 million or 23% from the 1998 first quarter, reflecting strong performance in Japan, account and business volume growth across the region, and spread improvements in certain countries. Adjusted operating expenses were up $30 million or 13% from a year ago, reflecting business volume growth, new product launches in Japan, and higher marketing costs. The provision for credit losses in the 1999 first quarter was $88 million, up from $50 million a year ago. The net credit loss ratio was 1.43% in the quarter compared with 0.92% a year ago. The increase in both the provision and the net credit loss ratio reflects economic conditions in the region. 11 Latin America First Quarter % --------------- In millions of dollars 1999 1998 Change - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total revenues, net of interest expense $466 $354 32 Adjusted operating expenses (1) 292 233 25 Provision for credit losses 101 49 106 -------------------------- Business income before taxes 73 72 1 Income taxes 25 29 (14) -------------------------- Business income 48 43 12 Restructuring-related items, after-tax 10 -- NM -------------------------- Net income $ 38 $ 43 (12) - -----------------------------------------------------=========================== Average assets (in billions of dollars) $ 14 $ 9 56 Return on assets 1.10% 1.94% - -----------------------------------------------------=========================== Excluding restructuring-related items Return on assets 1.39% 1.94% - -----------------------------------------------------=========================== (1) Excludes restructuring-related items. NM Not meaningful - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Latin America -- which provides banking and lending services, including credit and charge cards, to customers throughout the region -- reported business income of $48 million in the 1999 first quarter, up from $43 million a year ago, reflecting the effect of certain acquisitions made in 1998, an increase in earnings from Credicard, a 33%-owned Brazilian Card affiliate, partially offset by a higher provision for credit losses. Net income of $38 million in the 1999 first quarter included restructuring-related items of $10 million ($16 million pretax). During the quarter, Citibank acquired Financiero Atlas, a Chilean consumer finance company with 65 branches and approximately $460 million in assets. The Brazilian currency devaluation in the 1999 first quarter has exacerbated the deteriorating economic conditions in the region. The devaluation significantly contributed to the 1999 first quarter foreign currency translation effects that reduced revenue and expense growth in Latin America by approximately 10% and 11%, respectively. As shown in the following table below, Latin America experienced strong business volume growth, including the effect of certain acquisitions made in 1998. Customer deposit growth also reflects a "flight to quality" in the region during 1998. First Quarter % ---------------- In billions of dollars 1999 1998 Change - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Accounts (in millions) 6.8 5.1 33 Average customer deposits $12.7 $ 8.9 43 Average loans 7.8 7.5 4 - --------------------------------------------------------======================== Revenues, net of interest expense, of $466 million were up $112 million or 32% from the 1998 first quarter, reflecting certain acquisitions in the region, increased earnings in Credicard, and account and business volume growth, partially offset by reduced spreads. Adjusted operating expenses in the 1999 first quarter grew $59 million or 25% from a year ago, reflecting acquisitions in the region and increased collection efforts, as well as business volume growth. The provision for credit losses was $101 million in the 1999 first quarter, up from $49 million a year ago, reflecting economic conditions in the region. The net credit loss ratio was 4.74% in the 1999 first quarter, up from 2.45% a year ago. 12 Global Private Bank First Quarter % ---------------- In millions of dollars 1999 1998 Change - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total revenues, net of interest expense $ 273 $ 264 3 Total operating expenses 174 176 (1) Provision (benefit) for credit losses 8 (7) 214 ---------------------------- Income before taxes 91 95 (4) Income taxes 34 37 (8) ---------------------------- Net income $ 57 $ 58 (2) - ---------------------------------------------------============================= Average assets (in billions of dollars) $ 18 $ 16 13 Return on assets 1.28% 1.47% - ---------------------------------------------------============================= Global Private Bank -- which provides personalized wealth management services for high net-worth clients around the world -- reported net income in the 1999 first quarter of $57 million, down $1 million or 2% from the 1998 first quarter, reflecting revenue growth offset by a higher provision for credit losses. Client business volumes under management were $119 billion at March 31, 1999, up from $116 billion at year-end and $105 billion a year ago, reflecting growth in the U.S., Europe, and Japan. Total revenues, net of interest expense, in the quarter were $273 million, up $9 million or 3% from 1998, reflecting growth in net interest income and fee revenues. Strong revenue growth in the U.S. and Japan was partially offset by weakness in Asia Pacific, excluding Japan, and Latin America. Total operating expenses of $174 million in the quarter were down $2 million or 1% from a year ago, as reduced staffing levels were partially offset by higher incentive compensation and operations and technology expenses. The provision for credit losses for 1999 was $8 million compared with net recoveries of $7 million in 1998. The increase primarily reflected reduced credit recoveries in the U.S. along with higher write-offs in Asia Pacific. Loans 90 days or more past due also continued to remain low at $191 million or 1.10% of loans at March 31, 1999 compared to $193 million or 1.14% at year-end and $186 million or 1.21% a year ago. e-Citi First Quarter % ---------------- In millions of dollars 1999 1998 Change - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total revenues, net of interest expense $ 54 $ 30 80 Total operating expenses 113 78 45 Provision for credit losses 1 1 -- --------------------------- Loss before tax benefits (60) (49) 22 Income tax benefits (24) (19) 26 --------------------------- Net loss $ (36) $ (30) 20 - -----------------------------------------------------=========================== e-Citi -- the business that manages the Company's Internet strategy and execution, including the creation and delivery of electronic financial services and e-commerce initiatives, such as Direct Access and other Internet-based transactional banking products, and provides to customers certain other electronic banking services such as Global Debit Card Services -- reported net losses of $36 million in the 1999 first quarter, compared to $30 million in the 1998 first quarter. Revenues, net of interest expense, were $54 million in the 1999 first quarter, up from $30 million a year ago, reflecting business volume increases in certain electronic banking services. Total operating expenses of $113 million increased from $78 million in the 1998 first quarter, reflecting business volume increases and investment spending on Internet based and other electronic banking services as well as other e-commerce initiatives. 13 Other Consumer First Quarter ------------------ In millions of dollars 1999 1998 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total revenues, net of interest expense $ 31 $ 26 Total operating expenses 63 30 ----------------- Loss before tax benefits (32) (4) Income tax benefits (12) (3) ----------------- Net loss $(20) $ (1) - --------------------------------------------------------------================== Other Consumer -- which includes certain treasury operations and global marketing and other programs - reported net losses of $20 million in the 1999 first quarter, compared to $1 million in the 1998 first quarter, principally reflecting higher spending on global advertising, marketing, and distribution development initiatives. Consumer Portfolio Review In the consumer portfolio, credit loss experience is often expressed in terms of annual net credit losses as a percentage of average loans. Pricing and credit policies reflect the loss experience of each particular product. Consumer loans are generally written off no later than a predetermined number of days past due on a contractual basis, or earlier in the event of bankruptcy. The number of days is set at an appropriate level according to loan product and country. The table on page 15 summarizes delinquency and net credit loss experience in both the managed and on-balance sheet loan portfolios in terms of loans 90 days or more past due, net credit losses, and as a percentage of related loans. In North America, Mortgage Banking and Citibanking credit trends continue to improve from a year ago. Mortgage Banking loans delinquent 90 days or more of $610 million at March 31, 1999 declined from $688 million a year ago and Citibanking North America delinquencies of $107 million declined from $129 million. Similarly, Mortgage Banking net credit losses of $13 million in the 1999 first quarter declined from $23 million in the 1998 first quarter and Citibanking North America net credit losses of $28 million declined from $32 million in the 1998 first quarter. U.S. bankcards managed loans delinquent 90 days or more were $1.0 billion or 1.46% ($820 million or 1.56% excluding UCS) at March 31, 1999, compared with $1.0 billion or 1.45% ($812 million or 1.55% excluding UCS) at December 31, 1998 and $855 million or 1.85% at March 31, 1998. Net credit losses in the 1999 first quarter were $784 million and the related loss ratio was 4.72% ($617 million and 4.91% excluding UCS), compared with $790 million and 4.82% ($632 million and 5.09% excluding UCS) in the 1998 fourth quarter and $676 million and 5.85% in the 1998 first quarter. The improvement in both the delinquency and net credit loss ratios from the prior year reflects moderating industry-wide bankruptcy trends and previously implemented credit risk management initiatives. Citigroup continues to write off bankrupt accounts upon notice of filing of bankruptcy. Consumer Finance Services credit trends reflect loan growth and positive U.S. economic conditions. Loans delinquent 90 days or more were $183 million or 1.42% at March 31, 1999, compared with $172 million or 1.44% at December 31, 1998 and $143 million or 1.42% a year ago. Net credit losses in the 1999 first quarter were $71 million and the related loss ratio was 2.38%, compared with $77 million and 2.67% in the 1998 fourth quarter and $72 million and 2.93% in the 1998 first quarter. In Europe, Middle East, and Africa, credit trends have been relatively stable in most countries. Loans delinquent 90 days or more were $878 million or 5.45% at March 31, 1999, compared with $937 million or 5.49% at December 31, 1998 and $873 million or 5.88% at March 31, 1998. Net credit losses in the 1999 first quarter were $73 million and the related loss ratio was 1.81%, compared with $73 million and 1.71% in the 1998 fourth quarter and $66 million and 1.78% in the 1998 first quarter. In Asia Pacific and Latin America, delinquencies and net credit losses have increased from 1998 levels due to economic conditions in the regions. Asia Pacific loans delinquent 90 days or more of $513 million at March 31, 1999 increased from $498 million at December 31, 1998 and $316 million a year ago. Net credit losses of $78 million in the 1999 first quarter increased from $68 million in the 1998 fourth quarter and $44 million in the 1998 first quarter. Latin America loans delinquent 90 days or more of $292 million at March 31, 1999 increased from $288 million at December 31, 1998 and $183 million a year ago. Net credit losses of $91 million in the 1999 first quarter increased from $67 million in the 1998 fourth quarter and $45 million in the 1998 first quarter. Global Private Bank loans delinquent 90 days or more were $191 million at March 31, 1999, compared with $193 million at December 31, 1998 and $186 million at March 31, 1998. Delinquencies reflect an increase in Asia Pacific and Europe, Middle East and Africa, offset by improvements in North America and Latin America. Net credit losses in the 1999 first quarter were $8 million, compared with $11 million in the 1998 fourth quarter and net recoveries of $7 million in the 1998 first quarter. The increase in net credit losses from the 1998 first quarter reflects higher write-offs in Asia Pacific and lower recoveries in North America. 14 Total consumer loans on the balance sheet delinquent 90 days or more on which interest continued to be accrued were $1.0 billion at March 31, 1999, $1.1 billion at December 31, 1998, and $1.0 billion at March 31, 1998. Included in these amounts are U.S. government-guaranteed student loans of $302 million at March 31, 1999, up from $267 million and $256 million at December 31, 1998 and March 31, 1998, respectively, reflecting loan growth. Other consumer loans delinquent 90 days or more on which interest continued to be accrued (which primarily include worldwide bankcard receivables and certain loans in Germany) were $741 million at March 31, 1999, $790 million at December 31, 1998, and $754 million at March 31, 1998. The majority of these other loans are written off upon reaching a stipulated number of days past due. Citigroup's policy for suspending the accrual of interest on consumer loans varies depending on the terms, security, and credit loss experience characteristics of each product, as well as write-off criteria in place. At March 31, 1999, interest accrual had been suspended on $2.3 billion of consumer loans, primarily consisting of mortgage, installment, revolving, and Private Banking loans, compared with $2.3 billion at December 31, 1998 and $2.0 billion at March 31, 1998. The increase from a year ago reflects increases in Asia Pacific and Latin America, partially offset by improvements in Mortgage Banking.

15 The portion of Citigroup's allowance for credit losses attributed to the consumer portfolio was $3.4 billion at March 31, 1999, up from $3.3 billion at December 31, 1998 and $2.8 billion at March 31, 1998. The increase from a year ago reflects the 1998 addition of a $320 million allowance for credit losses related to the acquisition of the Universal Card portfolio. The allowance as a percentage of loans on the balance sheet was 2.56% as of March 31, 1999, compared with 2.50% at December 31, 1998 and 2.41% a year ago. The attribution of the allowance is made for analytical purposes only and may change from time to time. Net credit losses and the related loss ratios may increase from the 1999 first quarter as a result of global economic conditions, particularly in Latin America and Asia Pacific, portfolio growth, the credit performance of the portfolios, including bankruptcies, and seasonal factors. Additionally, delinquencies and loans on which the accrual of interest is suspended could remain at relatively high levels. This statement is a forward-looking statement within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. See "Forward-Looking Statements" on page 24. During the 1999 first quarter, the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC) revised its Uniform Retail Credit Classification and Account Management Policy. The policy provides guidance on the reporting of delinquent consumer loans and the timing of associated credit charge-offs for Citigroup's financial institution subsidiaries. The revised policy, which will be adopted during 2000, is not expected to have a material effect since Citigroup maintains adequate reserves for probable credit losses inherent in its loan portfolios.

NM Not meaningful - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Global Corporate and Investment Bank business income in the 1999 first quarter was $1.355 billion, up $319 million or 31% from the 1998 first quarter. The improvement reflects business income growth of $205 million or 46% at Salomon Smith Barney (SSB), $57 million or 22% in the Emerging Markets business, $39 million or 25% in Global Relationship Banking (GRB), and $18 million or 11% in Commercial Lines. SSB's results reflect strong retail business, record fixed income underwriting and improved trading. SSB's risk profile is substantially improved from the 1998 quarter with global arbitrage positions reduced and Phibro's operations significantly curtailed. Results in the Emerging Markets business reflect growth in trading, lending, and trade finance while the GRB's results reflect improved trading and transaction banking. Commercial Lines results primarily reflect favorable prior-year reserve development and expense control. Global Corporate and Investment Bank net income, excluding the effect of accounting changes, totaled $1.475 billion, up $439 million or 42% from the 1998 first quarter. Included in 1999 first quarter net income is a release of the 1997 restructuring reserve of $125 million ($211 million pre-tax) that resulted from SSB's reassessment of space needs due to the Citicorp merger. See further discussion of the restructuring reserve release in SSB in Note 7 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. The businesses of Global Corporate and Investment Bank are significantly affected by the levels of activity in the global capital markets which, in turn, are influenced by macro-economic and political policies and developments, among other factors, in the 99 countries in which the businesses operate. Global economic exigencies can have both positive and negative effects on the revenue performance of the businesses and can negatively affect credit performance. In particular, levels of principal transactions, realized gains from sales of investments, and gains from asset sales may fluctuate in the future as a result of market and asset-specific factors. Losses on commercial lending activities can vary widely with respect to timing and amount, particularly within any narrowly defined business or loan type. Net write-offs and cash-basis loans may increase from the 1998 levels due to global economic developments, particularly in Latin America and Asia Pacific. A variety of factors continue to affect the property and casualty insurance market, including the competitive pressures affecting pricing and profitability, inflation in the cost of medical care, and litigation. Pricing in the Commercial Lines marketplace is expected to continue to be very competitive in 1999. Changes in the general interest rate 16 environment affect the returns received by Commercial Lines on newly invested and reinvested funds. This paragraph contains statements that are forward looking within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. See "Forward-Looking Statements" on page 24. Salomon Smith Barney The following data does not include the Asset Management division of Salomon Smith Barney. The division's results are included in the SSB Citi Asset Management Group segment. First Quarter % ----------------- In millions of dollars 1999 1998 Change - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total revenues, net of interest expense $3,341 $2,918 14 Adjusted operating expenses (1) 2,338 2,207 6 ---------------------------- Business income before taxes 1,003 711 41 Income taxes 355 268 32 ---------------------------- Business income 648 443 46 Restructuring-related credit, after-tax 124 -- NM ---------------------------- Net income (2) $ 772 $ 443 74 - ----------------------------------------------------============================ (1) Excludes restructuring-related items. (2) Excludes cumulative effect of accounting change. NM Not meaningful - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Salomon Smith Barney reported business income in the first quarter of 1999 of $648 million compared to $443 million in the first quarter of 1998. Included in 1999 first quarter net income is an after-tax restructuring reserve release of $125 million ($211 million pre-tax) representing a reduction in the restructuring reserve related to the Seven World Trade Center lease recorded in the fourth quarter of 1997 in connection with the Salomon merger. The reduction in the reserve resulted from a current reassessment of space needed due to the Citicorp merger. The reassessment indicated the need for increased occupancy and the utilization of space previously considered excessive. See Note 7 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for discussions of the restructuring initiatives. Salomon Smith Barney's earnings benefited from continued strong results in the retail business, record fixed income underwriting and improved trading revenues. Revenues by category were as follows: First Quarter % ---------------- In millions of dollars 1999 1998 Change - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Commissions $ 900 $ 793 13 Investment banking 655 616 6 Principal transactions 974 779 25 Asset management and administration fees (1) 377 300 26 Interest income, net (2) 370 402 (8) Other income 65 28 132 -------------------------- Total revenues, net of interest expense (2) $3,341 $2,918 14 - -----------------------------------------------------=========================== (1) Excludes the revenues of SSB Asset Management which are reported in the Asset Management business segment. (2) Net of interest expense of $2.241 billion and $2.914 billion in 1999 and 1998, respectively. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Revenues, net of interest expense in the first quarter of 1999 were $3.341 billion, a 14% improvement over the $2.918 billion in the first quarter of 1998 primarily reflecting increases in all categories offset by a decline in interest income, net. Commissions revenue increased 13% in 1999 to $900 million, from $793 million in 1998. The increase reflects growth in sales of listed and over-the-counter (OTC) securities. Investment banking revenues were $655 million in the first quarter of 1999 compared to $616 million in 1998. An increase in high grade debt underwritings was partially offset by declines in equity, high yield and unit trust underwritings. During the first quarter of 1999 Salomon Smith Barney was ranked #1 in the industry in municipal underwriting and mortgage and asset-backed debt according to Securities Data Corp. Principal transaction revenues increased 25% to $974 million in the first quarter of 1999 compared to $779 million in the first quarter of 1998. Increases in the institutional global fixed income, global equities and municipal trading businesses were partially offset by declines in the global arbitrage and commodity trading businesses. 17 Asset management and administration fees increased 26% to $377 million in the first quarter of 1999 compared to $300 million in the first quarter of 1998 as a result of the growth in assets under fee-based management. The investment services category includes results from assets managed by the Financial Consultants as well as assets that are externally managed by the consulting group. Assets under fee-based management increased significantly at March 31, 1999 compared to March 31, 1998 causing the corresponding increase in revenue. Total assets under fee-based management at March 31, were as follows: March 31, % ------------- In billions of dollars 1999 1998 Change - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Financial Consultant managed accounts $18.6 $13.3 40 Consulting Group externally managed assets 73.1 67.1 9 ----------------------- Total assets under fee-based management (1) $91.7 $80.4 14 - ---------------------------------------------------------======================= (1) Excludes the assets under management of SSB Asset Management, which are reported in the Asset Management business segment. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net interest and dividends were $370 million in the first quarter of 1999 compared to $402 million in the first quarter of 1998. Adjusted operating expenses were $2.338 billion in the first quarter of 1999 compared to $2.207 billion in the first quarter of 1998. The 6% increase primarily reflects an increase in production-related compensation and employee benefits expense, reflecting increased revenues, partially offset by the benefit of changes in employee deferred compensation plans. Salomon Smith Barney continues to maintain its focus on controlling fixed expenses. Emerging Markets First Quarter % ---------------- In millions of dollars 1999 1998 Change - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total revenues, net of interest expense $1,134 $ 957 18 Adjusted operating expenses (1) 501 475 5 Provision for credit losses 115 62 85 -------------------------- Business income before taxes and minority interest 518 420 23 Income taxes 196 156 26 Minority interest, after-tax 1 -- NM -------------------------- Business income 321 264 22 Restructuring-related items, after-tax 1 -- NM -------------------------- Net income $ 320 $ 264 21 - ------------------------------------------------------========================== Average assets (in billions of dollars) $ 80 $ 74 8 Return on assets 1.62% 1.45% - ------------------------------------------------------========================== Excluding restructuring-related items Return on assets 1.63% 1.45% - ------------------------------------------------------========================== (1) Excludes restructuring-related items. NM Not meaningful - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Emerging Markets business income totaled $321 million in the 1999 first quarter, up $57 million or 22% from the 1998 first quarter. Return on assets, excluding restructuring-related items, was 1.63%, up from 1.45% in the 1998 quarter. Revenues, net of interest expense, of $1.134 billion grew $177 million or 18% compared with the 1998 period primarily driven by higher principal transactions revenues, as well as lending and trade finance. Revenue growth was broadly based across most countries in which the business operates. Revenues attributed to the Embedded Bank and Emerging Local Corporate strategies (Citigroup's plans to gain market share in selected emerging market countries), together with new franchises, accounted for 6% and 5% of the Emerging Markets business revenues in the first quarters of 1999 and 1998, respectively, and grew 43% from the 1998 period. About 24% of the revenue in the Emerging Markets business in the 1999 and 1998 first quarters was attributable to business from multinational companies managed jointly with Global Relationship Banking, with that revenue having grown 22% from 1998. Adjusted operating expenses totaled $501 million in the 1999 first quarter, up $26 million or 5% from the 1998 quarter. The growth in expenses primarily reflects investment spending associated with implementing plans to gain market share in selected emerging market countries. The provision for credit losses totaled $115 million, up $53 million or 85% from 1998. The increase was concentrated in Asia Pacific. Cash-basis loans were $1.095 billion, $1.062 billion, and $953 million at March 31, 1999 and December 31 and March 31, 1998, respectively. The increases were concentrated in Asia Pacific. Cash-basis loans at March 31, 1999 and December 31 and March 31, 1998 include approximately $13 million, $14 million, and $83 million, respectively, of balance sheet credit exposure related to 18 foreign currency derivative contracts for which the recognition of revaluation gains has been suspended. See the table entitled "Cash-Basis, Renegotiated, and Past Due Loans" on page 43. Average assets of $80 billion in the 1999 first quarter rose $6 billion or 8% from the 1998 first quarter reflecting growth across all geographic regions. The growth was concentrated in the loan portfolio and trade finance products, together with treasury initiatives. Global Relationship Banking First Quarter % ------------------- In millions of dollars 1999 1998 Change - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total revenues, net of interest expense $ 1,091 $ 990 10 Adjusted operating expenses (1) 784 737 6 Provision (benefit) for credit losses (4) 3 (233) ------------------------------ Business income before taxes 311 250 24 Income taxes 114 92 24 ------------------------------ Business income 197 158 25 Restructuring-related items, after-tax 3 -- NM ------------------------------ Net income $ 194 $ 158 23 - -------------------------------------------------=============================== Average assets (in billions of dollars) $ 89 $ 90 (1) Return on assets 0.88% 0.71% - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Excluding restructuring-related items Return on assets 0.90% 0.71% - -------------------------------------------------=============================== (1) Excludes restructuring-related items. NM Not meaningful - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Business income from Global Relationship Banking in North America, Europe, and Japan was $197 million in the 1999 first quarter, up $39 million or 25% from 1998. Return on assets, excluding restructuring-related items, was 0.90%, up from 0.71% in the 1998 quarter. Revenues, net of interest expense, of $1.091 billion grew $101 million or 10% compared with the 1998 period, primarily reflecting strong principal transactions revenues coupled with double-digit growth in transaction banking services. In late 1998, certain capital markets businesses were transferred to SSB in connection with business integration and restructuring initiatives and are not included in the results of GRB in the 1999 first quarter. Adjusted operating expenses were $784 million, up $47 million or 6% from 1998. The growth in expenses primarily reflects increased spending on technology, including costs related to the EMU and Year 2000 coupled with higher incentive compensation. Expenses declined $19 million or 2% from the 1998 fourth quarter as EMU and Year 2000 spending declined from its peak in the 1998 fourth quarter. The provision (benefit) for credit losses reflected net recoveries of $4 million in the 1999 first quarter compared with net write-offs of $3 million in the 1998 quarter. Cash-basis loans at March 31, 1999 and December 31 and March 31, 1998 were $308 million, $268 million, and $378 million, respectively, while the other real estate owned portfolio totaled $212 million, $235 million, and $329 million, respectively. See the tables entitled "Cash-Basis, Renegotiated, and Past Due Loans" and "Other Real Estate Owned and Assets Pending Disposition" on page 43. Average assets of $89 billion in the 1999 first quarter declined $1 billion or 1% from the 1998 period, primarily reflecting the transfer of certain capital markets businesses to SSB and lower trading assets, partially offset by higher asset levels in the cash management and loan portfolio products. 19 Commercial Lines First Quarter % ---------------- In millions of dollars 1999 1998 Change - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total revenues, net of interest expense $1,534 $1,619 (5) Total operating expenses 376 406 (7) Claims and claim adjustment expenses 865 938 (8) -------------------------- Income before taxes and minority interest 293 275 7 Income taxes 68 69 (1) Minority interest, after-tax 36 35 3 -------------------------- Net income (1) (2) $ 189 $ 171 11 - -----------------------------------------------------=========================== (1) Excludes cumulative effect of accounting changes.

NM Not meaningful - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net income, excluding the effect of accounting changes, was $189 million in the first quarter of 1999 compared to $171 million in the first quarter of 1998. The 11% improvement in 1999 reflects favorable prior-year reserve development, continued expense savings, and lower cumulative injury incurred losses, partially offset by higher weather-related losses and a decrease in fee income. Operating results reflect the long-standing insistence on maintaining discipline in the highly competitive commercial lines marketplace and on growing business only where market conditions warrant. Net written premiums by market were as follows: First Quarter % ------------------- In millions of dollars 1999 1998 Change - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- National accounts $ 150 $ 186 (19) Commercial accounts 444 463 (4) Select accounts 372 379 (2) Specialty accounts 148 184 (19) -------------------------------- Total net written premiums $1,114 $1,212 (8) - -----------------------------------------------================================= Commercial Lines net written premiums in the first quarter of 1999 totaled $1.114 billion, down $98 million from $1.212 billion in the first quarter of 1998 reflecting the highly competitive marketplace and the continued disciplined approach to underwriting and risk management. Fee income was $67 million in the first quarter of 1999 compared to $82 million in the first quarter of 1998. The decrease in fee income was primarily due to the depopulation of involuntary pools serviced by the Company. The decrease in National Accounts net written premiums was primarily due to a decrease in the level of involuntary pool participation and the continued disciplined approach to underwriting and risk management. National Accounts new business was significantly lower and its business retention ratio was moderately lower in the first quarter of 1999 than in the first quarter of 1998. These decreases reflected the continued disciplined approach to the highly competitive marketplace. The decrease in Commercial Accounts net written premiums reflect the continued disciplined approach to underwriting and risk management, partially offset by the continued growth through programs designed to leverage underwriting experience in specific industries. Commercial Accounts new business in the first quarter of 1999 was significantly lower than in the first quarter of 1998, reflecting the focus on obtaining new accounts only where it can maintain its selective underwriting policy. Commercial Accounts business retention ratio was moderately lower in the first quarter of 1999 than in the first quarter of 1998. Commercial Accounts continues to focus on maintaining its product pricing standards and its selective underwriting policy in the renewal of accounts. The decrease in Select Accounts net written premiums reflects the highly competitive marketplace and the continued disciplined approach to underwriting and risk management. New premium business in Select Accounts was significantly lower in the first quarter of 1999 compared to the first quarter of 1998, reflecting its selective underwriting policy in the highly competitive marketplace. Select Accounts business retention ratio remained strong in the first quarter of 1999 and was virtually the same as that in the first quarter of 1998. 20 The decrease in Specialty Accounts net written premiums primarily reflects a highly competitive marketplace and the continued disciplined approach to underwriting and risk management. Statutory and GAAP combined ratios (before allocation of corporate expenses) for Commercial Lines were as follows: First Quarter ---------------- 1999 1998 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Statutory Loss and LAE ratio 76.2% 78.2% Underwriting expense ratio 28.5 28.6 --------------- Combined ratio before policyholder dividends 104.7 106.8 =============== Combined ratio 105.7% 108.0% - ----------------------------------------------------------------================ GAAP Loss and LAE ratio 75.8% 77.9% Underwriting expense ratio 31.1 30.2 --------------- Combined ratio before policyholder dividends 106.9 108.1 =============== Combined ratio 107.9% 109.3% - ----------------------------------------------------------------================ GAAP combined ratios for Commercial Lines differ from statutory combined ratios primarily due to the deferral and amortization of certain expenses for GAAP reporting purposes only. The decrease in the 1999 statutory and GAAP combined ratios before policyholder dividends compared to the 1998 statutory and GAAP combined ratios before policyholder dividends was due to favorable prior-year reserve development and lower cumulative injury incurred losses, partially offset by higher weather-related losses and lower fee income. Uncertainty Regarding Adequacy of Environmental and Asbestos Reserves The reserves for environmental claims are not established on a claim-by-claim basis. An aggregate bulk reserve is carried for all of the environmental claims that are in the dispute process, until the dispute is resolved. This bulk reserve is established and adjusted based upon the aggregate volume of in-process environmental claims and the experience in resolving such claims. At March 31, 1999, approximately 18% of the net aggregate reserve (i.e., approximately $143 million) consists of case reserve for resolved claims. The balance, approximately 82% of the net aggregate reserve (i.e., approximately $655 million), is carried in a bulk reserve and includes incurred but not reported environmental claims for which the Company has not received any specific claims. In general, the Company posts case reserves for pending asbestos claims within approximately 30 business days of receipt of such claims. At March 31, 1999, approximately 22% of the net aggregate reserve (i.e., approximately $225 million) is for pending asbestos claims. The balance, approximately 78% (i.e., approximately $797 million) of the net aggregate reserve, represents incurred but not reported losses for which the company has not received any specific claims. It is difficult to estimate the reserves for environmental and asbestos-related claims due to the vagaries of court coverage decisions, plaintiffs' expanded theories of liability, the risks inherent in major litigation and other uncertainties. Conventional actuarial techniques are not used to estimate such reserves. The reserves carried for environmental and asbestos claims at March 31, 1999 are the Company's best estimate of ultimate claims and claim adjustment expenses based upon known facts and current law. However, the conditions surrounding the final resolution of these claims continue to change. Currently, it is not possible to predict changes in the legal and legislative environment and their impact on the future development of asbestos and environmental claims. Such development will be affected by future court decisions and interpretations, as well as changes in legislation applicable to such claims. Because of these future unknowns, additional liabilities may arise for amounts in excess of the current reserves. These additional amounts, or a range of these additional amounts, cannot now be reasonably estimated, and could result in a liability exceeding reserves by an amount that would be material to the Company's operating results in a future period. However, the Company believes that it is not likely that these claims will have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or liquidity.

Asset Management offers institutional, high net worth, and retail clients a broad range of investment disciplines from global investment centers around the world. Products and services offered include mutual funds, closed-end funds, separately managed accounts, unit investment trusts, and variable annuities (through affiliated and third party insurance companies). Asset Management net income, excluding the effect of the accounting change, of $80 million in the 1999 first quarter was up $11 million or 16% from the 1998 first quarter, as revenue growth offset increased expenses from continued investments in the business' infrastructure and investment research. Income before taxes increased by $20 million or 18% over 1998. Assets under management rose 20% from the year-ago quarter to $338 billion, as growth continued across all product categories. Institutional managed account assets grew to $93 billion, up 22% from the 1998 first quarter. Money fund and long-term mutual fund assets grew by 27% and 13%, respectively. Contributing to money fund growth was a $3.6 billion increase in institutional liquidity funds in the first quarter resulting from increased selling efforts through Global Relationship Banking. Capitalizing on Japan's Big Bang, Asset Management raised $600 million in Japan through sales of its new CitiFunds mutual funds and sales of Salomon Brothers mutual funds in non-proprietary channels. Also in the quarter, CitiEuroland funds were introduced through the Citibank Europe Consumer Bank. Revenues, net of interest expense rose $49 million or 16% to $354 million in the first quarter. This increase was predominantly in investment advisory fees and reflects the broad growth in assets under management, plus additional performance fees. Operating expenses increased $29 million or 15% to $221 million in 1999, reflecting global business growth and efforts to build Asset Management's investment research and quantitative investment capabilities. Expenses excluding the research/quantitative buildout and the July 1998 acquisition of JP Morgan's Australian asset management business, increased 7%. CORPORATE/OTHER

Revenues, net of interest expense of $158 million declined $461 million or 74% from the 1998 first quarter reflecting a $313 million decrease in realized gains from sales of investments to $36 million coupled with a $126 million decrease in venture capital revenues to $138 million. Investment Activities results may fluctuate in the future due to market and asset-specific factors. YEAR 2000 The arrival of the year 2000 poses a unique worldwide challenge to the ability of time sensitive computer systems to recognize the date change from December 31, 1999 to January 1, 2000. Citigroup has assessed and is modifying its computer systems and business processes to provide for their continued functionality and is also assessing the readiness of third parties with which it interfaces. Citigroup is highly dependent on computer systems and system applications for conducting its ongoing business functions. The inability of systems to recognize properly the year 2000 could result in major systems failure or miscalculations that would disrupt Citigroup's ability to meet its customer and other obligations on a timely basis, and Citigroup has engaged in a worldwide process of identifying, assessing, and modifying its computer programs to address this issue. As part of and following achievement of year 2000 compliance, systems are subjected to a process that validates the modified programs before they can be used in production. The pre-tax cost associated with the required modifications and conversions is expected to total approximately $900 million through 1999, funded from a combination of a reprioritization of technology development initiatives and incremental costs. This is being expensed as incurred. Of the total, approximately $750 million has been incurred to date, including approximately $90 million in the first quarter of 1999. Substantially all of the required modification and internal testing work has been completed and Citigroup continues to make satisfactory progress towards successful completion of its year 2000 program. The remainder of 1999 will be spent primarily addressing completion of the remaining external testing, integration testing and production assurance. Citigroup is addressing other technology-related matters including business applications to be sunset (that is, removed from use in favor of replacement applications), end-user computing applications, networks, data centers, and desktops, and these are similarly progressing towards timely resolution. Citigroup is also addressing year 2000 issues that may exist outside its own global technology activities, including its facilities and business processes, external service providers, and other third parties with which it interfaces. Substantially all of Citigroup's facilities and related systems have been investigated, and modification is under way. Other business processes are likewise being addressed across the Company. Significant third parties with which Citigroup interfaces with regard to the year 2000 problem include customers and counterparties, external service providers, technology vendors, the global financial market infrastructure including payment and clearing systems, and the utility infrastructure on which all corporations rely. Unreadiness by these third parties would expose Citigroup to the potential for loss, impairment of business processes and activities, and disruption of financial markets. Citigroup is addressing these risks worldwide through bilateral and multiparty efforts and participation in industry, country, and global initiatives. While significant 23 third parties are generally engaged in efforts intended to address and resolve their year 2000 issues on a timely basis, it is possible that a series of failures by third parties could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations in future periods. Citigroup is creating contingency plans intended to address perceived risks associated with its year 2000 effort. These activities include planning to mitigate any remaining risks associated with remediation of critical systems, business resumption planning to address the possibility of systems failure, and market resumption planning to address the possibility of failure of systems or processes outside Citigroup's control. Contingency planning, and preparations for the management of the date change, will continue worldwide through 1999. Notwithstanding these activities, the failure of efforts to address in a timely manner, the year 2000 problem, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations in future periods. An additional year 2000 issue for Travelers Property Casualty Corp. is the potential future impact of claims for insurance coverage from customers who suffer year 2000 business losses or claim coverage for their potential liability to third parties. TAP has taken certain initiatives to mitigate this potential risk, including addressing year 2000 issues, where applicable, in the underwriting of insurance policies. Losses for year 2000 insurance claims and litigation costs related to such claims are not reasonably estimable at this time. The Company's expectations with respect to remediation of the year 2000 issue constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. See "Forward-Looking Statements" below. FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS Certain of the statements contained herein that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. The Company's actual results may differ materially from those included in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words or phrases such as "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "estimate," "may increase," "may fluctuate," and similar expressions or future or conditional verbs such as "will," "should," "would," and "could". These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to, the following global economic conditions, particularly in Latin America and Asia Pacific, portfolio growth, the credit performance of the portfolios, including bankruptcies, and seasonal factors; changes in general economic conditions, including the performance of global financial markets, risks associated with fluctuating levels of principal transactions, realized gains from sales of investments, gains from asset sales and losses on commercial lending activities; interest rates; the resolution of legal proceedings and related matters; the actual amount of liabilities associated with certain environmental and asbestos-related insurance claims; customer responsiveness to both new products and distribution channels; the actual cost of year 2000-related remediation; and the possibility that the Company will be unable to achieve anticipated levels of operational efficiencies related to recent mergers and business acquisitions, as well as achieving its other cost-saving initiatives. MANAGING GLOBAL RISK The Market Risk Management Process Market risk encompasses liquidity risk and price risk, both of which are fundamental to the business of a financial intermediary. Liquidity risk is the risk that some entity, in some location and in some currency, may be unable to meet a financial commitment to a customer, creditor, or investor when due. Price risk is the risk to earnings that arises from changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates, equity and commodity prices, and in their implied volatilities. These exposures arise in the normal course of business of a global financial intermediary. Citigroup's business and corporate oversight groups have well-defined market risk management responsibilities. Within each business, a process is in place to control market risk exposure. The risk management process includes the establishment of appropriate market controls, policies and procedures, appropriate senior management risk oversight with thorough risk analysis and reporting, and independent risk management with capabilities to evaluate and monitor risk limits. The risk management process is described in detail in the 1998 Annual Report and Form 10-K. As Citigroup's businesses become more closely integrated, it is expected that these management processes will also be more closely integrated. Across Citigroup, price risk is measured using various tools, including Earnings-at-Risk (EAR) and sensitivity analysis, which are applied to interest rate risk in the non-trading portfolios, and Value-at-Risk (VAR), stress and scenario analysis, which are applied to the trading portfolios. Non-Trading Portfolios Business units manage the potential earnings effect of interest rate movements by managing the asset and liability mix, either directly or with derivative financial products. These include interest rate swaps and other derivative instruments which are either designated and effective as hedges or designated and effective in modifying the interest rate characteristics of specified assets or liabilities. The 24 utilization of derivatives is managed in response to changes in market conditions as well as to changes in the characteristics and mix of the related assets and liabilities. At Citicorp, Earnings-at-Risk measures the discounted pre-tax earnings impact over a specified time horizon of a specified shift in the interest rate yield curve for the appropriate currency. The yield curve shift is statistically derived as a two standard deviation change in a short-term interest rate over the period required to defease the position (usually four weeks). Earnings-at-Risk is calculated separately for each currency and reflects the repricing gaps in the position, as well as option positions, both explicit and embedded. Citicorp's primary non-trading price risk exposure is to movements in U.S. dollar interest rates. As of March 31, 1999, the rate shift over a four-week defeasance period applied to the U.S. dollar yield curve for purposes of calculating Earnings-at-Risk was 45 basis points. Citicorp also has Earnings-at-Risk in various other currencies; however, there are no significant risk concentrations in any individual non-U.S. dollar currency. As of March 31, 1999, the rate shifts applied to these currencies for purposes of calculating Earnings-at-Risk ranged from 17 to 1,991 basis points, over defeasance periods ranging from one to fifty days, depending on the currency. The following table illustrates that, as of March 31, 1999, a 45 basis point increase in the U.S. dollar yield curve would have a potential negative impact on Citicorp's pre-tax earnings of approximately $129 million in the next twelve months, and a positive impact of approximately $12 million for the total five-year period 2000-2004. A two standard deviation increase in non-U.S. dollar interest rates would have a potential negative impact on Citicorp's pre-tax earnings of approximately $109 million in the next twelve months, and approximately $201 million for the five-year period 2000-2004.

Citicorp Twelve Month Earnings-at-Risk (impact on pre-tax earnings)

The tables above illustrate that Citicorp's pre-tax earnings in its non-trading activities over the next 12 months would be reduced by an increase in interest rates and would benefit from a decrease in interest rates. 25 Receive-fixed interest rate swaps and similar instruments effectively modify the repricing characteristics of certain consumer and commercial loan portfolios, deposits, and long-term debt. Excluding the effects of these instruments, Citicorp's Earnings-at-Risk over the next twelve months in its non-trading activities would be as follows: Citicorp Twelve Month Earnings-at-Risk (excluding effect of derivatives)

During the first quarter of 1999, Citicorp's U.S. dollar Earnings-at-Risk for the following 12 months assuming a two standard deviation increase in rates would have had a potential negative impact ranging from approximately $73 million to $129 million in the aggregate at each month end, compared with a range from $65 million to $173 million during 1998. The relatively lower U.S. dollar Earnings-at-Risk experienced during the first quarter of 1999 was primarily due to the reduction in the level of received fixed swaps. A two standard deviation increase in non-U.S. dollar interest rates for the following twelve months would have had a potential negative impact ranging from approximately $98 million to $109 million in the aggregate at each month end during the first quarter of 1999, compared with a range from $53 million to $98 million during 1998. The higher non-U.S. dollar Earnings-at-Risk experienced during the first quarter of 1999 primarily reflected the higher interest rate volatility seen across the Asia Pacific region. The table above also illustrates that Citicorp's risk profile in the one- to two-year time horizon is directionally similar, but generally tends to reverse in subsequent periods. This reflects the fact that the majority of the derivative instruments utilized to modify repricing characteristics as described above will mature within three years. In addition, there are other financial instruments held in the non-trading portfolio outside Citicorp such as investments, long-term debt, derivatives and contractholder funds. The price risk associated with these instruments is measured using sensitivity analysis as described in the 1998 Annual Report and Form 10-K. At March 31, 1999 there is no significant change to the risk profile as disclosed at year-end 1998. Trading Portfolios One tool for measuring the price risk of trading activities is Value-at-Risk, which estimates the potential pretax loss in market value that could occur over a one-day holding period at a 99% confidence level. The Value-at-Risk method incorporates the market factors to which the market value of the trading position is exposed (interest rates, foreign exchange rates, equity and commodity prices, and their implied volatilities), the sensitivity of the position to changes in those market factors, and the volatilities and correlation of those factors. The Value-at-Risk measurement includes the foreign exchange risks that arise in traditional banking businesses as well as in explicit trading positions. The level of exposure taken depends on the market environment and expectations of future market movements, and will vary from period to period. For Citicorp's major trading centers, the aggregate pretax Value-at-Risk in the trading portfolios was $15 million at March 31, 1999. Daily exposures at Citicorp averaged $18 million in the first quarter of 1999 and ranged from $14 million to $24 million. At Salomon Smith Barney the aggregate pretax Value-at-Risk in the trading portfolios was $54 million at March 31, 1999. Quarterly exposures at Salomon Smith Barney averaged $61 million in the first quarter of 1999 and ranged from $52 million to $72 million. 26 The following table summarizes Citigroup's Value-at-Risk in its trading portfolios as of March 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998 along with the first quarter 1999 average.

Management of Cross-Border Risk At Citigroup Cross-border risk is the risk that Citigroup will be unable to obtain payment from customers on their contractual obligations as a result of actions taken by foreign governments such as exchange controls, debt moratoria and restrictions on the remittance of funds. Citigroup manages cross-border risk as part of the Windows on Risk process described in the 1998 Annual Report and Form 10-K. The following table presents total cross-border outstandings and commitments on a regulatory basis in accordance with FFIEC guidelines. Total cross-border outstandings include cross-border claims on third parties as well as investments in and funding of local franchises, as described in the 1998 Annual Report and Form 10-K. Countries with outstandings greater than 0.75% of Citigroup assets at March 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998 include:

(3) Total cross-border outstandings were in excess of 1.0% of Citigroup's total assets at the end of the respective period. (4) Total cross-border outstandings were between 0.75% and 1.0% of Citigroup's total assets at the end of the respective period. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Trading and short-term claims (included in total cross-border claims on third parties) include cross-border debt and equity securities in the trading account, resale agreements, trade finance receivables, net revaluation gains on foreign exchange and derivative contracts, and other claims with a maturity of less than one year. Under resale agreements, the counterparty has the legal obligation 27 for repayment; however, for purposes of the above table, resale agreements are reported based on the domicile of the issuer of the securities that are held as collateral, as required by FFIEC guidelines. A substantial portion of resale agreements are with investment grade counterparties in the G-7 countries (Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, United Kingdom, and the United States). LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Citigroup services its obligations primarily with dividends and advances that it receives from subsidiaries. The subsidiaries' dividend paying abilities are limited by certain covenant restrictions in credit agreements and/or by regulatory requirements. Citigroup believes it will have sufficient funds to meet current and future commitments. Each of Citigroup's major operating subsidiaries finances its operations on a basis consistent with its capitalization and ratings. Citigroup, Citicorp, Commercial Credit Company (CCC), TAP and The Travelers Insurance Company (TIC) issue commercial paper directly to investors. Citicorp and Citigroup, both of which are bank holding companies, maintain combined liquidity reserves of cash, securities and unused bank lines of credit at least equal to their combined outstanding commercial paper. CCC, TAP, and TIC each maintains unused credit availability under their bank lines of credit at least equal to the amount of its outstanding commercial paper. Borrowings under bank lines of credit may be at interest rates based on LIBOR, CD rates, the prime rate or bids submitted by the banks. Each company pays its banks commitment fees for its lines of credit. Citicorp and some of its nonbank subsidiaries have credit facilities with Citicorp's subsidiary banks, including Citibank, N.A. Borrowings under these facilities would be secured in accordance with Section 23A of the Federal Reserve Act. Citigroup Inc. (Citigroup) Citigroup, CCC and TIC have an agreement with a syndicate of banks to provide $1.0 billion of revolving credit, to be allocated to any of Citigroup, CCC or TIC. The participation of TIC in this agreement is limited to $250 million. The revolving credit facility consists of a five-year revolving credit facility that expires in June 2001. At March 31, 1999, all of the facility was allocated to Citigroup. Under this facility the Company is required to maintain a certain level of consolidated stockholders' equity (as defined in the agreement). The Company exceeded this requirement by approximately $27.7 billion at March 31, 1999. Citigroup and CCC also have $200 million in 364-day facilities which expire in August 1999 and may be allocated to either of Citigroup or CCC. At March 31, 1999, all $200 million was allocated to Citigroup. At March 31, 1999, there were no borrowings outstanding under either of these facilities. Citigroup is subject to risk-based capital and leverage guidelines issued by the Board of Governors of the FRB. These guidelines are used to evaluate capital adequacy based primarily on the perceived credit risk associated with balance sheet assets, as well as certain off-balance sheet exposures such as unused loan commitments, letters of credit, and derivative and foreign exchange contracts. The risk-based capital guidelines are supplemented by a leverage ratio requirement.

(6) Includes risk-weighted credit equivalent amounts, net of applicable bilateral netting agreements, of $32.8 billion for interest rate, commodity and equity derivative contracts and foreign exchange contracts, as of March 31, 1999, compared to $37.3 billion as of December 31, 1998. Market risk-equivalent assets included in net risk-adjusted assets amounted to $52.2 billion at March 31, 1999 and $51.5 billion at December 31, 1998. Net risk-adjusted assets also includes the effect of other off-balance sheet exposures such as unused loan commitments and letters of credit and reflects deductions for intangible assets and any excess allowance for credit losses. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Common stockholders' equity increased a net $1.4 billion during the first quarter of 1999 to $41.8 billion at March 31, 1999, representing 6.06% of assets, compared to $40.4 billion and 6.04% at year-end 1998. The net increase in common stockholders' equity during the quarter principally reflected net income of $2.4 billion and issuance of shares pursuant to employee benefit plans and other activity of $0.5 billion, partially offset by treasury stock acquired of $1.1 billion and dividends declared on common and preferred stock of $0.4 billion. The increase in the common stockholders' equity ratio during the quarter reflected the above items, partially offset by the increase in total assets. During the first quarter of 1999, Citigroup redeemed its $200 million Series J perpetual preferred stock. All of the mandatorily redeemable securities of subsidiary trusts (trust securities) outstanding at March 31, 1999 qualify as Tier 1 capital. The amount outstanding at March 31, 1999 includes $2.3 billion of parent-obligated securities and $2.62 billion of subsidiary-obligated securities. The increase in trust securities outstanding during the first quarter of 1999 of $600 million represents parent-obligated securities. Citigroup's subsidiary depository institutions are subject to the risk-based capital guidelines issued by their respective primary federal bank regulatory agencies, which are generally similar to the FRB's guidelines. At March 31, 1999, all of Citigroup's subsidiary depository institutions were "well capitalized" under the federal bank regulatory agencies' definitions. From time-to-time, the FRB and the FFIEC propose amendments to, and issue interpretations of, risk-based capital guidelines and reporting instructions. Such proposals or interpretations could, if implemented in the future, affect reported capital ratios and net risk-adjusted assets. Citicorp Citicorp manages liquidity through a well-defined process described in the 1998 Annual Report and Form 10-K. 29 A diversity of funding sources, currencies, and maturities is used to gain a broad access to the investor base. Citicorp's deposits, which represent 68% and 66% of its total funding at March 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998, respectively, are broadly diversified by both geography and customer segments. Stockholder's equity, which grew $283 million during the quarter to $22.9 billion at March 31, 1999, continues to be an important component of the overall funding structure. In addition, long-term debt is issued by Citicorp and its subsidiaries. Total Citicorp long-term debt outstanding at quarter-end was $19.6 billion, unchanged from year-end. Asset securitization programs remain an important source of liquidity. Loans securitized during the first quarter included $3.0 billion of U.S. credit cards, $1.9 billion of U.S. consumer mortgages, and $0.1 billion of non-U.S. consumer loans. As credit card securitization transactions amortize, newly originated receivables are recorded on Citicorp's balance sheet and become available for asset securitization. During the quarter, the scheduled amortization of certain credit card securitization transactions made available $1.5 billion of new receivables. In addition, $2.3 billion of credit card securitization transactions are scheduled to amortize during the rest of 1999. Citicorp is a legal entity separate and distinct from Citibank, N.A. and its other subsidiaries and affiliates. As discussed in the 1998 Annual Report and Form 10-K, there are various legal limitations on the extent to which Citicorp's subsidiaries may extend credit, pay dividends, or otherwise supply funds to Citicorp. As of March 31, 1999, under their applicable dividend limitations, Citicorp's national and state-chartered bank subsidiaries could have declared dividends to their respective parent companies without regulatory approval of approximately $3.4 billion. In determining whether and to what extent to pay dividends, each bank subsidiary must also consider the effect of dividend payments on applicable risk-based capital and leverage ratios requirements, as well as policy statements of the federal regulatory agencies that indicate that banking organizations should generally pay dividends out of current operating earnings. Consistent with these considerations, Citicorp estimates that, as of March 31, 1999, its bank subsidiaries could have distributed dividends to Citicorp, directly or through their parent holding company, of approximately $2.9 billion of the available $3.4 billion. Citicorp is subject to risk-based capital guidelines issued by the Board of Governors of the FRB. These guidelines are used to evaluate capital adequacy based primarily on the perceived credit risk associated with balance sheet assets, as well as certain off-balance sheet exposures such as unused loan commitments, letters of credit, and derivative and foreign exchange contracts. The risk-based capital guidelines are supplemented by a leverage ratio requirement. Citicorp Ratios Mar. 31, Dec. 31, 1999 1998 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tier 1 capital 8.35% 8.44% Total capital (Tier 1 and Tier 2) 12.15 12.38 Leverage (1) 6.74 6.68 Common stockholder's equity 6.58 6.57 - --------------------------------------------------------------================== (1) Tier 1 capital divided by adjusted average assets. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Citicorp maintained a strong capital position during the 1999 first quarter. Total capital (Tier 1 and Tier 2) amounted to $33.8 billion at March 31, 1999, representing 12.15% of net risk-adjusted assets. This compares with $33.9 billion and 12.38% at December 31, 1998. Tier 1 capital of $23.2 billion at March 31, 1999 represented 8.35% of net risk-adjusted assets, compared with $23.1 billion and 8.44% at December 31, 1998. Citicorp's Tier 1 capital ratio at March 31, 1999 exceeded Citicorp's target range of 8.00% to 8.30%. Commercial Credit Company (CCC) At March 31, 1999, CCC, in addition to the bilateral agreements with Citigroup, also had a committed and available revolving credit facility on a stand-alone basis of $4.75 billion, consisting of $3.4 billion in five-year facilities which expire in 2002 and $1.35 billion in a 364-day facility that expires in July 1999. At March 31, 1999, there were no borrowings outstanding under these facilities. CCC is limited by covenants in its revolving credit agreements as to the amount of dividends and advances that may be made to Citigroup or its affiliated companies. At March 31, 1999, CCC would have been able to remit $1.02 billion under its most restrictive covenants. Travelers Property Casualty Corp. (TAP) TAP has a five-year revolving credit facility in the amount of $250 million with a syndicate of banks that expires in December 2001. Under this facility TAP is required to maintain a certain level of consolidated stockholders' equity (as defined in the agreement). At 30 March 31, 1999, this requirement was exceeded by approximately $4.3 billion. At March 31, 1999, there were no borrowings outstanding under this facility. TAP's insurance subsidiaries are subject to various regulatory restrictions that limit the maximum amount of dividends available to be paid to their parent without prior approval of insurance regulatory authorities. Dividend payments to TAP from its insurance subsidiaries are limited to $1.0 billion in 1999 without prior approval of the Connecticut Insurance Department. TAP has received $150 million of dividends from its insurance subsidiaries during the first three months of 1999. Salomon Smith Barney Holdings Inc. (Salomon Smith Barney) Salomon Smith Barney manages liquidity and monitors and evaluates capital adequacy through a well-defined process described in the 1998 Annual Report and Form 10-K. Total assets were $226 billion at March 31, 1999, up from $212 billion at year-end 1998. As discussed in the 1998 Annual Report and Form 10-K, it is not uncommon for asset levels to fluctuate from period to period. At March 31, 1999, Salomon Smith Barney had a $1.5 billion revolving credit agreement with a bank syndicate that extends through May 2001, and a $3.5 billion 364-day revolving credit agreement that extends through May 1999. Salomon Smith Barney may borrow under its revolving credit facilities at various interest rate options (LIBOR, CD or base rate) and compensates the banks for the facilities through commitment fees. Under these facilities Salomon Smith Barney is required to maintain a certain level of consolidated adjusted net worth (as defined in the agreement). At March 31, 1999, this requirement was exceeded by approximately $3.6 billion. At March 31, 1999, there were no borrowings outstanding under either facility. Salomon Smith Barney also has substantial borrowing arrangements consisting of facilities that it has been advised are available, but where no contractual lending obligation exists. These arrangements are reviewed on an ongoing basis to ensure flexibility in meeting short-term requirements. Unsecured term debt is a significant component of Salomon Smith Barney's long-term capital. Long-term debt totaled $18.1 billion at March 31, 1999 and $19.1 billion at December 31, 1998. Salomon Smith Barney utilizes interest rate swaps to convert the majority of its fixed rate long-term debt used to fund inventory-related working capital requirements into variable rate obligations. Long-term debt issuances denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar that are not used to finance assets in the same currency are effectively converted to U.S. dollar obligations through the use of cross-currency swaps and forward currency contracts. The Travelers Insurance Company (TIC) At March 31, 1999, TIC had $26.2 billion of life and annuity product deposit funds and reserves. Of that total, $12.9 billion is not subject to discretionary withdrawal based on contract terms. The remaining $13.3 billion is for life and annuity products that are subject to discretionary withdrawal by the contractholder. Included in the amount that is subject to discretionary withdrawal are $3.4 billion of liabilities that are surrenderable with market value adjustments. Also included are an additional $5.0 billion of the life insurance and individual annuity liabilities which are subject to discretionary withdrawals, and have an average surrender charge of 4.7%. In the payout phase, these funds are credited at significantly reduced interest rates. The remaining $4.9 billion of liabilities are surrenderable without charge. More than 12.9% of these relate to individual life products. These risks would have to be underwritten again if transferred to another carrier, which is considered a significant deterrent against withdrawal by long-term policyholders. Insurance liabilities that are surrendered or withdrawn are reduced by outstanding policy loans and related accrued interest prior to payout. TIC is subject to various regulatory restrictions that limit the maximum amount of dividends available to its parent without prior approval of the Connecticut Insurance Department. A maximum of $504 million of statutory surplus is available in 1999 for such dividends without Department approval of which $110 million has been paid during the first quarter of 1999. 31 CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS CITIGROUP INC.

See Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 35 CITIGROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) 1. Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 1999 and for the three-month periods ended March 31, 1999 and 1998 are unaudited and include the accounts of Citigroup Inc. (Citigroup) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the Company). In the opinion of management all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation have been reflected. The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company's 1998 Annual Report and Form 10-K. Certain financial information that is normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, but is not required for interim reporting purposes, has been condensed or omitted. The Board of Directors on April 19, 1999 declared a three-for-two split in Citigroup's common stock, which is payable in the form of a 50% stock dividend on May 28, 1999 to stockholders of record on May 3, 1999. Current and prior year information has been restated to reflect the stock split. The Board also approved an increase in the quarterly common stock dividend from 12 to 14 cents per share on a post-split basis (from 18 to 21 cents per share on a pre-split basis), payable May 28, 1999 to stockholders of record on May 3, 1999. 2. Accounting Changes Insurance-related assessments. During the first quarter of 1999, the Company adopted Statement of Position (SOP) 97-3, "Accounting by Insurance and Other Enterprises for Insurance-Related Assessments". SOP 97-3 provides guidance for determining when an entity should recognize a liability for guaranty-fund and other insurance-related assessments, how to measure that liability, and when an asset may be recognized for the recovery of such assessments through premium tax offsets or policy surcharges. The effect of initial adoption resulted in a cumulative catch-up adjustment recorded as a charge to earnings of $135 million after-tax and minority interest, with no material ongoing impact. Deposit Accounting. During the first quarter of 1999, the Company adopted Statement of Position 98-7, "Deposit Accounting: Accounting for Insurance and Reinsurance Contracts That Do Not Transfer Insurance Risk". SOP 98-7 provides guidance on how to account for insurance and reinsurance contracts that do not transfer insurance risk and applies to all entities and all such contracts, except for long-duration life and health insurance contracts. The method used to account for such contracts is referred to as deposit accounting. The effect of initially adopting SOP 98-7 resulted in a cumulative catch-up adjustment recorded as a credit to earnings of $23 million after-tax and minority interest. Start-up costs. During the first quarter of 1999, the Company adopted Statement of Position 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities". SOP 98-5 requires costs of start-up activities and organization costs to be expensed as incurred. The effects of initially adopting SOP 98-5 resulted in a cumulative catch-up adjustment recorded as a charge to earnings of $15 million after-tax, to write-off certain capitalized closed-end fund distribution costs. 36 3.

Restructuring-Related Items In December 1998 Citigroup recorded a restructuring charge of $1.122 billion ($703 million after-tax), reflecting exit costs associated with business improvement and integration initiatives to be implemented over a 12 to 18 month period. The charge included $760 million related to employee severance for the elimination of approximately 11,900 positions, after considering attrition and redeployment within the Company. The overall workforce reduction, net of anticipated rehires to fill relocated positions, is expected to be approximately 10,400 positions worldwide. The charge also included $327 million related to exiting leasehold and other contractual obligations, and $35 million related to the write-down to estimated salvage value of assets that are available for immediate disposal. Also recorded in the 1998 fourth quarter were $65 million of merger-related costs which included the direct and incremental costs of administratively closing the Citicorp merger. In addition, the implementation of these restructuring initiatives will cause some related premises and equipment assets to become redundant. In accordance with recent SEC guidelines, the remaining depreciable lives of these assets have been shortened, and accelerated depreciation charges (in addition to normal scheduled depreciation on these assets) will be recognized in subsequent periods, $81 million of which were recorded in the 1999 first quarter. Additional implementation costs associated with these restructuring initiatives will be expensed as incurred but are not expected to be material. In 1997, Citigroup recorded restructuring charges of $1.718 billion, consisting of an $880 million restructuring charge related to cost-management programs and customer service initiatives to improve operational efficiency and productivity in the Citicorp businesses, and an $838 million charge related to the Salomon merger. The status of the 1998 and 1997 restructuring initiatives is summarized in the following table. Restructuring Reserves Activity 1998 1997 Restructuring Restructuring In millions of dollars Reserve Reserve Total - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Restructuring Charges $ 1,122 $ 1,718 $ 2,840 Utilization (1) (265) (945) (1,210) Changes in 1997 Estimates -- (603) (603) ------------------------------------------ Balance at March 31, 1999 $ 857 $ 170 $ 1,027 - -------------------------------------========================================== (1) Utilization amounts include translation effects on the restructuring reserve. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The 1998 restructuring reserve utilization includes $35 million of non-cash charges (including $30 million of equipment and premises write-downs at Citicorp and $5 million at SSB) as well as $205 million of severance and other exit costs, occurring primarily in the first quarter of 1999 (of which $120 million related to employee severance and $29 million related to leasehold and other exit costs have been paid in cash and $56 million is legally obligated), together with translation effects. Through March 31, 1999, approximately 2,400 gross staff positions have been eliminated under these programs, primarily in the 1999 first quarter. The 1997 restructuring reserve utilization includes $314 million of non-cash charges (including $245 million of equipment and premises write-downs at Citicorp and $69 million at SSB) as well as $625 million of severance and other exit costs (of which $410 million related to employee severance and $156 million related to leasehold and other exit costs have been paid in cash and $59 million is legally obligated), together with translation effects. Utilization, including translation effects, in the first quarter of 1999 was $133 million. Through March 31, 1999, approximately 6,700 gross staff positions have been eliminated under these programs, including 1,100 in the 1999 first quarter. Changes in 1997 estimates are attributable to facts and circumstances arising subsequent to the original restructuring charge. In the 1999 first quarter and the second and fourth quarters of 1998, $211 million, $324 million, and $30 million, respectively, of the 1997 Salomon Smith Barney reserve was released, primarily related to the Seven World Trade Center lease. Additionally, in the 1998 fourth quarter $38 million of the 1997 Citicorp reserve was released. The 1999 first quarter release resulted from a current reassessment of space needed due to the Citicorp merger. The reassessment indicated the need for increased occupancy and the utilization of space previously considered excessive. The 1998 releases resulted from negotiations on a sublease on the Seven World Trade Center location which indicated that excess space could be disposed of on terms more favorable than had been originally estimated. Changes in prior estimates are also attributable to lower severance costs due to higher than anticipated levels of attrition and redeployment within the Company, and other unforeseen changes including those resulting from the Citicorp merger. 39 Additional information about the 1998 and 1997 restructuring charges, including the business segments affected, may be found in the 1998 Annual Report and Form 10-K. 8. Mandatorily redeemable securities of subsidiary trusts In March 1999, Citigroup Capital VI, a wholly owned subsidiary trust of Citigroup, issued 24 million 6.875% Capital Securities with a liquidation preference of $25 per security to the public and 742,269 common securities to Citigroup. The proceeds were invested by Citigroup Capital VI in $618 million of 6.875% Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures (Citigroup Debentures). The $618 million of Citigroup Debentures is the sole asset of Citigroup Capital VI. The Citigroup Debentures mature on March 15, 2029 and are redeemable by Citigroup in whole or in part any time on or after March 15, 2004. Citigroup Capital VI will use the proceeds from any such redemption to redeem a like amount of Capital Securities and common securities. Distributions on the Capital Securities and common securities are cumulative and payable quarterly in arrears. Citigroup's obligation under the agreements that relate to Citigroup VI Capital Securities, the Trust and the Citigroup Debentures constitute a full and unconditional guarantee by Citigroup of the Trust's obligations under the Citigroup VI Capital Securities. 9.

(1) There is no balance sheet credit exposure for futures contracts because they settle daily in cash, and none for written options because they represent obligations (rather than assets) of Citigroup. (2) Master netting agreements mitigate credit risk by permitting the offset of amounts due from and to individual counterparties in the event of counterparty default. The effect of master netting agreements at Salomon Smith Barney is reflected in the individual line items for each of the products in the table above. (3) Citibank has securitized and sold net receivables, and the associated credit risk related to certain derivative and foreign exchange contracts via Markets Assets Trust. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The tables below provide data on the notional principal amounts and maturities of end-user (non-trading) derivatives, along with additional data on end-user interest rate swaps and net purchased option positions at the end of the first quarter of 1999.

Contingencies It is difficult to estimate the reserves for environmental and asbestos-related claims due to the vagaries of court coverage decisions, plaintiffs' expanded theories of liability, the risks inherent in major litigation and other uncertainties. Conventional actuarial techniques are not used to estimate such reserves. The reserves carried for environmental and asbestos claims at March 31, 1999 are the Company's best estimate of ultimate claims and claim adjustment expenses based upon known facts and current law. However, the conditions surrounding the final resolution of these claims continue to change. Currently, it is not possible to predict changes in the legal and legislative environment and their impact on the future development of asbestos and environmental claims. Such development will be affected by future court decisions and interpretations as well as changes in legislation applicable to such claims. Because of these future unknowns, additional liabilities may arise for amounts in excess of the current reserves. These additional amounts, or a range of these additional amounts, cannot now be reasonably estimated, and could result in a liability exceeding reserves by an amount that would be material to the Company's operating results in a future period. However, the Company believes that it is not likely that these claims will have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or liquidity. In the ordinary course of business Citigroup and/or its subsidiaries are also defendants or co-defendants in various litigation matters, other than those described above. Although there can be no assurances, the Company believes, based on information currently available, that the ultimate resolution of these legal proceedings would not be likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, financial condition or liquidity. 42 FINANCIAL DATA SUPPLEMENT Cash-Basis, Renegotiated, and Past Due Loans (1)
