FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

NORTHERN TRUST CORPORATION REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER NET INCOME

OF $167.7 MILLION, EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE OF $0.69.

FULL YEAR NET INCOME

OF $687.3 MILLION, EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE OF $2.81.

(Chicago, January 16, 2013) Northern Trust Corporation today reported fourth quarter net income per common share of $0.69, up from $0.53 in the fourth quarter of 2011 and down from $0.73 in the third quarter of 2012. Net income was $167.7 million in the current quarter, up 29% from $130.2 million in the prior year fourth quarter, and down 6% from $178.8 million in the prior quarter. Return on equity was 8.8% in the current quarter, compared to 7.2% in the prior year quarter and 9.6% in the prior quarter.

Reported net income per common share for the full year was $2.81, compared to the prior year’s $2.47 per common share. Net income for 2012 totaled $687.3 million compared to the prior year’s $603.6 million. Return on equity for the full year 2012 was 9.3%, compared with 8.6% for 2011.

Frederick H. Waddell, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Fourth quarter and full year performance continued to reflect solid core trust fee growth amidst a challenging operating environment. We achieved strong new business success while also completing the integration of two important acquisitions.

Throughout the year, we focused on the needs of our clients and on improving the profitability and returns of our business. Our return on equity of 9.3% in 2012 improved from 8.6% in 2011 and our capital actions, including an increase in the quarterly dividend to $0.30 per share and the repurchase of 3.5 million common shares, returned $449.8 million in capital to our shareholders.”


FOURTH QUARTER 2012 PERFORMANCE VS. FOURTH QUARTER 2011

Net income per common share in the fourth quarter of 2012 was $0.69 compared to $0.53 per common share in the fourth quarter of 2011. Net income for the current quarter was $167.7 million, up $37.5 million, or 29%, from $130.2 million in the prior year quarter. The current quarter includes restructuring and integration related charges of $8.2 million ($5.2 million after tax, or $0.02 per common share). The prior year quarter included restructuring, acquisition and integration related charges of $61.0 million ($39.8 million after tax, or $0.17 per common share). Net income in the fourth quarter of 2011 benefitted from a reduction of a liability related to potential losses from indemnified litigation involving Visa, Inc. (Visa). The associated prior year quarter pre-tax expense reduction totaled $13.0 million ($8.0 million after tax, or $0.03 per common share).

Consolidated revenue of $969.7 million in the current quarter was up $14.1 million, or 1%, from $955.6 million in the prior year quarter. Noninterest income, which represented 76% of revenue, increased $51.7 million, or 8%, to $735.5 million from the prior year quarter’s $683.8 million, primarily reflecting higher trust, investment and other servicing fees, partially offset by lower foreign exchange trading income. Net interest income for the quarter on a fully taxable equivalent (FTE) basis decreased $37.6 million, or 13%, to $243.6 million compared to $281.2 million in the prior year quarter, primarily due to lower average earning assets and a continued decline in the net interest margin.

Trust, investment and other servicing fees were $622.6 million in the current quarter, up $81.1 million, or 15%, from $541.5 million in the prior year quarter. The increase primarily reflects strong new business, the favorable impact of equity markets on fees, and lower waived fees on money market mutual funds.

Money market mutual fund fee waivers in C&IS, attributable to persistent low short-term interest rates, totaled $5.7 million in the current quarter, compared to waived fees of $12.3 million in the prior year quarter. Securities lending revenue increased 5%, primarily reflecting higher spreads in the current quarter.

FOURTH QUARTER 2012 PERFORMANCE VS. FOURTH QUARTER 2011 (continued)

 

Trust, investment and other servicing fees in Personal Financial Services (PFS) totaled $278.3 million in the current quarter, increasing $42.5 million, or 18%, from $235.8 million in the prior year quarter. The increase in the current quarter primarily reflects the favorable impact of markets on fees, strong new business, revised fee structures, and lower waived fees in money market mutual funds. Money market mutual fund fee waivers in PFS totaled $9.6 million in the current quarter compared with $21.3 million in the prior year quarter.

Foreign exchange trading income totaled $40.8 million, down $30.9 million, or 43%, compared with $71.7 million in the prior year quarter. The current quarter decrease is attributable to reduced currency market volatility.

Other operating income totaled $35.7 million in the current quarter, down 6% from $37.7 million in the prior year quarter.

Net interest income for the quarter on an FTE basis totaled $243.6 million, down $37.6 million, or 13%, compared to $281.2 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease reflects lower average earning assets and a continued decline in the net interest margin to 1.17% from 1.28% in the prior year quarter. Average earning assets for the quarter were $82.9 billion, down $4.3 billion, or 5%, from $87.2 billion in the prior year quarter, primarily reflecting decreased Federal Reserve deposits. The current quarter decline in the net interest margin primarily reflects lower yields on earning assets, partially offset by a higher percentage of funding from noninterest-bearing sources. Net interest income in the prior year quarter included $7.0 million of income attributable to a settlement with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) regarding the tax treatment for certain leveraged leasing transactions. Absent this leasing related adjustment, the prior year net interest margin would have been 1.25%.

The provision for credit losses was $5.0 million in the current quarter and $12.5 million in the prior year quarter. Net charge-offs totaled $5.4 million for the current quarter resulting from $16.1 million of charge-offs and $10.7 million of recoveries, compared to $18.2 million of net charge-offs in the prior year quarter resulting from $28.8 million of charge-offs and $10.6 million of recoveries. Nonperforming loans and leases decreased $38.9 million, or 13%, from the prior year quarter. Residential real estate loans and commercial real estate loans accounted for 69% and 22%, respectively, of total nonperforming loans at December 31, 2012.

Noninterest income increased $8.6 million, or 1%, to $735.5 million from the prior quarter’s $726.9 million, primarily reflecting higher trust, investment and other servicing fees, partially offset by lower other operating income and foreign exchange trading income.

FOURTH QUARTER 2012 PERFORMANCE VS. THIRD QUARTER 2012 (continued)

Net interest income on an FTE basis in the current quarter totaled $243.6 million, down $13.3 million, or 5%, compared to $256.9 million in the prior quarter. The decrease reflects lower average earning assets and a continued decline in the net interest margin.

The net interest margin decreased to 1.17% in the current quarter from 1.21% in the prior quarter.

Expense for outside services totaled $140.7 million, an increase of $14.1 million, or 11%, compared to $126.6 million in the prior quarter. The current quarter increase primarily reflects higher expense for technical, sub-custodian, consulting, and legal services.

Equipment and software expense totaled $90.5 million in the current quarter, up 5% from $86.0 million in the prior quarter.

Other operating expense totaled $83.9 million, an increase of $20.9 million, or 33%, from the prior quarter’s $63.0 million. The current quarter increase primarily reflects increased business promotion expense, higher charges related to account servicing activities, higher staff related expense, and the restructuring and integration related charges of $3.3 million.

FULL YEAR 2012 PERFORMANCE VS. FULL YEAR 2011 (continued)

 

The performance in 2012 produced an annualized return on equity of 9.3% compared to 8.6% in 2011. The annualized return on average assets was 0.7% in both 2012 and in 2011.

Consolidated revenue totaled $3.90 billion in 2012, an increase of $126.2 million, or 3%, from $3.77 billion in the prior year. Noninterest income increased $145.0 million, or 5%, to $2.91 billion from 2011’s $2.76 billion, primarily reflecting higher trust, investment and other servicing fees, partially offset by lower foreign exchange trading income. Trust, investment and other servicing fees in 2012 reflect the full year impact of acquisitions completed in June and July of 2011.

Net interest income on an FTE basis in 2012 totaled $1.03 billion, a decrease of $18.2 million, or 2%, compared to $1.05 billion in 2012, primarily due to a decline in the net interest margin.

Noninterest expense totaled $2.88 billion in 2012, up $47.6 million, or 2%, from $2.83 billion in the prior year. Excluding the current and prior year restructuring, acquisition and integration related charges of $18.6 million and $91.6 million, respectively, and the prior year Visa benefits, noninterest expense increased $97.5 million, or 4%, primarily reflecting higher equipment and software expense and the full period impact of operating costs attributable to the acquisitions completed in 2011.

STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Total stockholders’ equity averaged $7.6 billion, up 5% from the prior year quarter’s average of $7.2 billion. The increase primarily reflects earnings, partially offset by dividend declarations and the repurchase of common stock pursuant to the Corporation’s share buyback program. During the quarter ended December 31, 2012, the Corporation repurchased 1,319,927 shares at a cost of $62.9 million ($47.62 average price per share). Under our capital plan, which was reviewed without objection by the Federal Reserve in March of 2012, the Corporation may repurchase up to $77.1 million of common stock after December 31, 2012 through March of 2013. The Corporation is authorized to purchase up to 6.8 million additional shares after December 31, 2012 under its current common stock repurchase authorization.

RECONCILIATION OF REPORTED NET INTEREST INCOME TO FULLY TAXABLE EQUIVALENT

Net interest income stated on an FTE basis is a non-GAAP financial measure that facilitates the analysis of asset yields. Management believes an FTE presentation provides a clearer indication of net interest margins for comparative purposes. When adjusted to an FTE basis, yields on taxable, nontaxable, and partially taxable assets are comparable; however, the adjustment to an FTE basis has no impact on net income. The tables below present a reconciliation of interest income and net interest income prepared in accordance with GAAP to interest income and net interest income on an FTE basis.
