REPORTS Record First Quarter Diluted E.P.S. of 41 Cents, Up 14% Securities Servicing Fee Revenue Up 27% Return on Average Common Equity of 24.48% Return on Average Assets of 1.94% NEW YORK, N.Y., April 19, 1999 -- The Bank of New York Company, Inc. (NYSE: BK) reports record first quarter diluted earnings per share of 41 cents, up 14% from the 36 cents earned in the first quarter of 1998. Net income for the first quarter was a record $316 million, up 12% from the $284 million earned in the same period last year. "Substantial revenue growth in fee based businesses, continued emphasis on expense control, and ongoing capital management produced superior earnings performance", said Thomas A. Renyi, Chairman and CEO. Significant new business and active markets worldwide drove securities servicing fees up 27%. Trust and investment grew 16% benefiting from strong investment performance, new business wins, and record U.S. equity markets. As a result, fee based revenue and noninterest income contributed 59% of revenues, reflecting continued concentration on fee based businesses. In securities servicing, revenue growth was led by global custody, mutual funds, securities lending, ADRs and execution services. Domestic and global 2 custody continued to gain market share and momentum from new business wins as assets under custody grew by 27% from a year ago reaching $5.2 trillion at quarter end. Trust and investment's results were due to strong investment performance which attracted new business. Continued focus on cost control was evident, as noninterest expense for the quarter was flat compared with the fourth quarter of 1998 and the efficiency ratio improved to 50.3%. As part of its capital management program, the Company repurchased 9 million shares under its 18 million share buyback authorization. Return on average common equity for the first quarter of 1999 was 24.48% exceeded only by the record 24.99% in the first quarter of 1998. Return on average assets for the first quarter of 1999 was 1.94% compared with 1.93% in the first quarter of 1998. Net interest income on a taxable equivalent basis for the first quarter decreased to $436 million from $451 million in the fourth quarter of 1998, as effective balance sheet management reduced levels of liquid deposits and investments associated with the securities servicing business. Fees from the Company's securities servicing businesses reached $291 million for the first quarter, up 27% compared with the corresponding period of the prior year. All areas contributed to strong internal growth of 16% with international activities including global custody, securities lending, and ADRs especially strong. In cash processing, revenues from cash management were up 14% driven by continued cross selling to the Company's securities servicing customers. Trade finance revenues were up 13% from a year ago as recovery in world markets continues. Fees from funds transfer grew by 6% from the previous year, the result of continued market share gains as CHIPS payment systems volumes were flat for the quarter. Overall, cash processing fees grew by 10% from a year ago reaching $69 million. Trust and investment fees were $58 million for the quarter, an increase of 16% over last year driven by strong results from short term money management and portfolio transition services. Foreign exchange and other trading revenues were $42 million compared with $51 million in the fourth 3 quarter of 1998 and $46 million last year. Declines were due to reduced levels of customer trading. Tangible diluted earnings per share (earnings before the amortization of goodwill and intangibles) were 43 cents per share in 1999, up 13% from $0.38 cents per share in the first quarter of 1998. On the same basis, tangible return on average common equity was 37.28% in 1999 compared with 37.72% in 1998; and tangible return on average assets was 2.11% in 1999 compared with 2.10% in 1998. The Company's estimated Tier 1 capital and Total capital ratios remained strong at 7.87% and 11.91% at March 31, 1999 compared with 7.89% and 11.90% at December 31, 1998, and 7.25% and 11.43% at March 31, 1998. Tangible common equity as a percent of total assets was 5.88% at March 31, 1999 compared with 6.25% at December 31, 1998 and 5.68% one year ago. The leverage ratio was 7.68% at March 31, 1999 compared with 7.46% at December 31, 1998 and 7.33% one year ago. NET INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income on a taxable equivalent basis was $436 million in the first quarter of 1999 compared with $451 million in the fourth quarter of 1998 and $404 million in the first quarter of 1998. The net interest rate spread was 2.29% in the first quarter of 1999, compared with 2.22% in the fourth quarter of 1998 and 2.24% one year ago. The net yield on interest-earning assets was 3.18% compared with 3.20% in the fourth quarter of 1998 and 3.33% in last year's first quarter. The decrease in net interest income and the improved net interest rate spread from the fourth quarter were due to aggressive balance sheet 4 management, which reduced highly liquid, lower yielding assets generated by the Company's securities servicing businesses. The decline in the net interest rate yield from the first and fourth quarters of 1998 was due to the Company's share repurchase program. NONINTEREST INCOME

Total noninterest income reached $625 million, growing 5% from the fourth quarter of 1998 and 13% from the first quarter of 1998. Securities servicing fees increased 27% to $291 million compared with $230 million a year ago. Strong internal growth across all areas reached 16%, with remaining growth coming from acquisitions. First quarter service charges and fees of $85 million were up from $81 million in the first quarter of 1998. Revenues from foreign exchange and other trading activities were $42 million in the first quarter of 1999 compared with $46 million last year. The Company reported $50 million of securities gains in the first quarter, the same as in the fourth quarter of 1998, and up from $28 million a year ago. Other income in the first quarter of 1998 included $29 million from the sale of the Company's property at 48 Wall Street. NONINTEREST EXPENSE AND INCOME TAXES Continued adherence to expense control resulted in total noninterest expense for the quarter of $509 million, flat with $507 million in the fourth 5 quarter of 1998. The increase of 9% from $467 million in the same period last year was principally due to acquisitions. Noninterest expense for the first quarter included $6 million related to making computer systems Year 2000 compliant compared with $8 million in last year's fourth and first quarters. The efficiency ratio for the first quarter of 1999 was 50.3% compared with 50.8% in the fourth quarter and 50.2% for the first quarter of 1998. The effective tax rate for the first quarter of 1999 was 34.9% compared with 36.1% last year. NONPERFORMING ASSETS
