SALLIE MAE REPORTS FIRST-QUARTER 2010 RESULTS
RESTON, Va., April 21, 2010SLM Corporation (NYSE: SLM), commonly known as Sallie Mae, reported
net income on a core earnings basis of $212 million ($.39 per diluted share) for the first quarter
ended March 31, 2010. On a GAAP basis, first-quarter 2010 net income was $240 million ($.45 per
diluted share).
During the quarter, President Obama signed student loan reform legislation that prohibits private
sector companies from making new federal student loans after June 30, 2010; terms of existing loans
remain unchanged. As a result, the company has begun to significantly restructure its operations to
align its cost structure with future revenues. First-quarter core earnings and GAAP results were
reduced by $19 million ($.04 per diluted share) for after-tax restructuring and asset impairment
costs related to the legislation.
As we expected, first-quarter results improved as the financial storm has receded, said Albert L.
Lord, vice chairman and CEO. Ironically, one quarter before the government takes over loan
originations, Sallie Mae broke its own FFELP origination record, a testament to the service
provided by our talented employees. Of more immediate concern, however, is the unpleasant task of
reducing our work force by 2,500 persons and restructuring our operations.
During the quarter, the company repurchased $1.3 billion of unsecured debt, resulting in an
after-tax gain of $57 million ($.11 per diluted share).
Core earnings net interest income after provision for loan losses was $343 million in the first
quarter, compared to $320 million in the prior quarter and $80 million in the year-ago quarter.
The company originated $7.7 billion in federal student loans in the first quarter, up 16 percent
from the year-ago quarter.
Private education loan originations were $840 million in the first quarter, compared to $1.5
billion one year ago, a reflection of tightened underwriting and significant increases in federal
programs.
Private Education Loan Portfolio Quality
Managed private education loan charge-offs declined to $284 million in the first quarter from $298
million in the previous quarter. Managed delinquencies as a percentage of private education loans
in
Sallie Mae | | 12061 Bluemont Way | | Reston, VA 20190 | | www.SallieMae.com |
repayment were 12.2 percent, compared to 12.1 percent in the previous quarter, primarily due to the
seasonal effect of customers entering repayment. The core earnings provision for private education
loan losses was $325 million in the first quarter, down from $327 million in the fourth quarter.
Funding
The company continued to improve its balance sheet strength during the quarter. It completed a $1.6
billion private education loan securitization and issued $1.5 billion in senior unsecured notes,
the first such issuance in 21 months. Subsequent to the quarter end, the company closed a $1.2
billion federal student loan securitization at the most favorable terms since 2007.
Other Income and Operating Expenses
Core earnings fee income, which includes the gain on debt repurchases, was $336 million in the
first quarter, up from the year-ago quarters $304 million.
Core earnings operating expenses were $318 million for the quarter, compared to $285 million in the
year-ago quarter.
GAAP
Sallie Mae officially reports financial results on a GAAP basis and also presents certain core
earnings performance measures. The companys management, equity investors, credit rating agencies
and debt capital providers use these core earnings measures to monitor the companys business
performance. Both a description of the core earnings treatment and a full reconciliation to the
GAAP income statement can be found at:
www.salliemae.com/about/investors/stockholderinfo/earningsinfo/, click on the First Quarter 2010
Supplemental Earnings Disclosure.
The company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board updates as of Jan. 1, 2010, and as a
result, the companys GAAP and core earnings presentations for securitization accounting are the
same, and managed and on-balance sheet (GAAP) student loan portfolios are now the same size.
The primary difference between the companys first-quarter 2010 core earnings and GAAP results is
the impact of derivative and hedge accounting. First-quarter 2010 GAAP results include the net
impact of a $122 million unrealized, mark-to-market, pre-tax gain on certain derivative contracts
that are recognized in GAAP, but not in core earnings, results.

Core
Earnings
In accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission (SEC), we prepare financial
statements in accordance with GAAP. In addition to evaluating
the Companys GAAP-based financial information, management
evaluates the Companys business segments on a basis that,
as allowed under the Financial Accounting Standards Boards
(FASBs) Accounting Standards Codification
(ASC) 280, Segment Reporting, differs
from GAAP. We refer to managements basis of evaluating our
segment results as Core Earnings presentations for
each business segment and we refer to this information in our
presentations with credit rating agencies and lenders. While
Core Earnings are not a substitute for reported
results under GAAP, we rely on Core Earnings to
manage each operating segment because we believe these measures
provide additional information regarding the operational and
performance indicators that are most closely assessed by
management.
Our Core Earnings are not defined terms within GAAP
and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported
by other companies. Core Earnings net income
reflects only current period adjustments to GAAP net income as
described below. Unlike financial accounting, there is no
comprehensive, authoritative guidance for management reporting
and as a result, our management reporting is not necessarily
comparable with similar information for any other financial
institution. Our operating segments are defined by products and
services or by types of customers, and reflect the manner in
which financial information is currently evaluated by
management. Intersegment revenues and expenses are netted within
the appropriate financial statement line items consistent with
the income statement presentation provided to management.
Changes in management structure or allocation methodologies and
procedures may result in changes in reported segment financial
information.
7
Limitations
of Core Earnings
While GAAP provides a uniform, comprehensive basis of
accounting, for the reasons described above, management believes
that Core Earnings are an important additional tool
for providing a more complete understanding of the
Companys results of operations. Nevertheless, Core
Earnings are subject to certain general and specific
limitations that investors should carefully consider. For
example, as stated above, unlike financial accounting, there is
no comprehensive, authoritative guidance for management
reporting. Our Core Earnings are not defined terms
within GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled
measures reported by other companies. Unlike GAAP, Core
Earnings reflect only current period adjustments to GAAP.
Accordingly, the Companys Core Earnings
presentation does not represent a comprehensive basis of
accounting. Investors, therefore, may not compare our
Companys performance with that of other financial services
companies based upon Core Earnings. Core
Earnings results are only meant to supplement GAAP results
by providing additional information regarding the operational
and performance indicators that are most closely used by
management, the Companys board of directors, rating
agencies and lenders to assess performance.
Other limitations arise from the specific adjustments that
management makes to GAAP results to derive Core
Earnings results. For example, in reversing the unrealized
gains and losses that result from ASC 815,
Derivatives and Hedging, on derivatives that do not
qualify for hedge accounting treatment, as well as
on derivatives that do qualify but are in part ineffective
because they are not perfect hedges, we focus on the long-term
economic effectiveness of those instruments relative to the
underlying hedged item and isolate the effects of interest rate
volatility and changing credit spreads on the fair value of such
instruments during the period. Under GAAP, the effects of these
factors on the fair value of the derivative instruments (but
often not on the underlying hedged item) tend to show more
volatility in the short term. While our presentation of our
results on a Core Earnings basis provides important
information regarding the performance of our Managed portfolio,
a limitation of this presentation is that we are presenting the
ongoing spread income on loans that have been sold to a trust
managed by us. While we believe that our Core
Earnings presentation presents the economic substance of
our Managed loan portfolio, it understates earnings volatility
from securitization gains. Our Core Earnings results
exclude certain Floor Income, which is real cash income, from
our reported results and therefore may understate earnings in
certain periods. Managements financial planning and
valuation of operating results, however, does not take into
account Floor Income because of its inherent uncertainty, except
when it is Fixed Rate Floor Income that is economically hedged
through Floor Income Contracts.
Pre-Tax
Differences between Core Earnings and GAAP
Our Core Earnings are the primary financial
performance measures used by management to evaluate performance
and to allocate resources. Accordingly, financial information is
reported to management on a Core Earnings basis by
reportable segment, as these are the measures used regularly by
our chief operating decision makers. Our Core
Earnings are used in developing our financial plans and
tracking results, and also in establishing corporate performance
targets and incentive compensation. Management believes this
information provides additional insight into the financial
performance of the Companys core business activities.
Core Earnings net income reflects only current
period adjustments to GAAP net income, as described in the more
detailed discussion of the differences between Core
Earnings and GAAP that follows, which includes further
detail on each specific adjustment required to reconcile our
Core Earnings segment presentation to our GAAP
earnings.
1) | Securitization Accounting: Under GAAP, prior to the adoption of topic updates to ASC 810, Consolidation, certain securitization transactions in our Lending operating segment were accounted for as sales of assets. Under Core Earnings for the Lending operating segment, we presented all securitization transactions on a Core Earnings basis as long-term non-recourse financings. The upfront gains on sale from securitization transactions, as well as ongoing servicing and securitization revenue presented in accordance with GAAP, were excluded from Core Earnings and were replaced by interest income, provisions for loan losses, and interest expense as earned or incurred on the securitization loans. We also excluded transactions with our off-balance sheet trusts from Core |
8
Earnings as they were considered intercompany transactions on a Core Earnings basis. On January 1, 2010, the Company prospectively adopted the topic updates to ASC 810, which resulted in the consolidation of these off-balance sheet securitization trusts at their historical cost basis. As a result, there are no longer differences between the Companys GAAP and Core Earnings presentation for securitization accounting. |
On January 1, 2010, upon the adoption of topic updates to ASC 810, the Company removed the $1.8 billion of Residual Interests (associated with its off-balance sheet securitization trusts as of December 31, 2009) from the consolidated balance sheet and the Company consolidated $35.0 billion of assets ($32.6 billion of which are student loans, net of a $550 million allowance for loan loss) and $34.4 billion of liabilities (primarily trust debt), which resulted in an approximate $750 million after-tax reduction of stockholders equity (recorded as a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings). After the adoption of topic updates to ASC 810, related to the securitization trusts that were consolidated on January 1, 2010, the Companys results of operations no longer reflect servicing and securitization income related to these securitization trusts, but instead report interest income, provisions for loan losses associated with the securitized assets and interest expense associated with the debt issued from the securitization trusts to third parties, consistent with the Companys accounting treatment of prior on-balance securitization trusts. |
2) | Derivative Accounting: Core Earnings exclude periodic unrealized gains and losses that are caused primarily by the mark-to-market derivative valuations prescribed by ASC 815 on derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment under GAAP. These unrealized gains and losses occur in our Lending operating segment. In our Core Earnings presentation, we recognize the economic effect of these hedges, which generally results in any cash paid or received being recognized ratably as an expense or revenue over the hedged items life. | |
3) | Floor Income: The timing and amount (if any) of Floor Income earned in our Lending operating segment is uncertain and in excess of expected spreads. Therefore, we only include such income in Core Earnings when it is Fixed Rate Floor Income that is economically hedged. We employ derivatives, primarily Floor Income Contracts and futures, to economically hedge Floor Income. As discussed above in Derivative Accounting, these derivatives do not qualify as effective accounting hedges, and therefore, under GAAP, they are marked-to-market through the gains (losses) on derivative and hedging activities, net line in the consolidated statement of income with no offsetting gain or loss recorded for the economically hedged items. For Core Earnings, we reverse the fair value adjustments on the Floor Income Contracts and futures economically hedging Floor Income and include in income the amortization of net premiums received on contracts economically hedging Fixed Rate Floor Income. | |
