REPORTS ------------------------------------------ First Quarter E.P.S. Increased 14% To 65 Cents; ----------------------------------------------- Return On Average Common Equity Was 20.90%; and ----------------------------------------------- Return On Average Assets Was 1.86% ---------------------------------- NEW YORK, N.Y., April 14, 1997 -- The Bank of New York Company, Inc. (NYSE: BK) reports first quarter fully diluted earnings per share were 65 cents, a 14% increase over the 57 cents earned in the first quarter of 1996. First quarter net income was $265 million, up 9% from $243 million earned in the same period last year. Return on average common equity totaled 20.90% in the first quarter of 1997 compared with 19.48% in the fourth quarter of 1996 and 18.86% in the first quarter of 1996. First quarter net income, E.P.S., and return on average common equity were records, excluding the non-recurring gain on the sale of the Union card portfolio in the second quarter of 1996. Return on average assets for the first quarter was 1.86% compared with 1.84% in the fourth quarter and 1.79% in the first quarter of 1996. Revenues from the Company's securities processing businesses 2 continued their substantial growth and were up 16% over the first quarter of 1996 to $185 million. ADR's, mutual funds, government securities clearance, corporate trust, and stock transfer were particularly strong. Overall, fees from other processing were up 11% over last year's first quarter to $55 million. Cash management fees were ahead a strong 13% and trade finance fees were up by 11%, while fees from the funds transfer business were up 10%. Trust and investment continued to benefit from new business and strong markets which combined to push fees 16% higher to $43 million in the first quarter of 1997. Net interest income, on a taxable equivalent basis, declined to $496 million in the first quarter from $521 million in the first quarter of last year, reflecting the sale of approximately $900 million in credit card receivables to Associates National Bank effective January 1, 1997 and the sale of the Union credit card receivables in the second quarter of 1996. Tangible fully diluted earnings per share (earnings before the amortization of goodwill and intangibles) were $0.70 per share in the first quarter of 1997 compared with $0.61 per share in the first quarter of 1996. On the same basis, tangible return on average assets was 2.05% in the first quarter of 1997 compared with 1.98% in the first quarter of 1996; and tangible return on average common equity was 29.69% in the first quarter of 1997 compared with 25.62% in the first quarter of 1996. Average fully diluted shares outstanding were 405 million for the quarter, down slightly from the 407 million in the fourth quarter and down significantly from the 428 million in the prior year period. The decline 3 from the fourth quarter was the result of the Company's stock buyback program, largely offset by the conversion of warrants and the issuance of stock to benefit plans. The reduction from the prior year period was the result of the cumulative favorable impact of the Company's stock buyback programs. The Company's estimated Tier 1 capital and Total capital ratios remained strong at 7.95% and 12.32% at March 31, 1997 compared with 8.34% and 12.78% at December 31, 1996, and 7.85% and 12.62% at March 31, 1996. Tangible common equity as a percent of total assets was 6.39% at March 31, 1997 compared with 7.00% at December 31, 1996 and 7.58% one year ago. The leverage ratio was 7.83% at March 31, 1997 compared with 8.70% at December 31, 1996 and 7.93% one year ago. 4 NET INTEREST INCOME - ------------------- 1st 4th 1st Quarter Quarter Quarter ------- ------- ------- (In millions) 1997 1996 1996 --------------------------- Net Interest Income $496 $500 $521 Net Interest Rate Spread 3.30% 3.35% 3.47% Net Yield on Interest- Earning Assets 4.24 4.33 4.49 The net interest rate spread was 3.30% in the first quarter of 1997, compared with 3.35% in the fourth quarter of 1996 and 3.47% one year ago. The net yield on interest-earning assets was 4.24% compared with 4.33% in the fourth quarter of 1996 and 4.49% in last year's first quarter. The decline in the spread and yield was primarily attributable to the sale of approximately $900 million in credit card receivables to Associates in the first quarter of 1997 and the sale of the Union portfolio in the second quarter of 1996. The decline in net interest income on a taxable equivalent basis to $496 million in the first quarter of 1997 from $521 million in the first quarter of 1996 was primarily the result of the credit card sales partially offset by continued growth in the Company's corporate loan portfolio. 5 NONINTEREST INCOME - ------------------ 1st Quarter ----------- (In millions) 1997 1996 -------------- Processing Fees Securities $185 $159 Other 55 50 ---- ---- 240 209 Trust and Investment Fees 43 37 Service Charges and Fees 94 101 Securities Gains 7 33 Foreign Exchange and Other Trading Activities 27 10 Other 44 25 ---- ---- Total Noninterest Income $455 $415 ==== ==== Securities processing fees increased 16% to $185 million compared with $159 million in the first quarter of 1996. Strong internal growth in all areas drove the increase in revenue. The Company reported $7 million of securities gains in the first quarter of 1997 compared with $33 million last year. Revenues from foreign exchange and other trading activities were $27 million compared with $10 million last year. Included in other noninterest income in the first quarter of 1997 was a $27 million pre-tax gain on the sale of a portion of the Company's interest in Wing Hang Bank, Ltd. NONINTEREST EXPENSE AND INCOME TAXES - ------------------------------------ Total noninterest expense for the quarter was $446 million, down 7.2% from the $480 million reported in the fourth quarter and up only slightly, .7%, from the $443 million reported a year ago. Strong cost controls in all areas combined with reductions in credit card servicing expenses drove this performance. During the quarter the Company continued to service the credit card receivables sold to Associates under an interim servicing 6 agreement. When the servicing agreement expires, employees associated with the servicing of these receivables will be transferred to Associates. The efficiency ratio for the first quarter was a record 47.3% compared with 51.7% reported in the fourth quarter of 1996 and 49.4% one year ago. The effective tax rate for the first quarter of 1997 was 36.7% compared with 38.4% for the first quarter of 1996.
