Net interest income of $898 million on a fully taxable equivalent basis decreased $7 million from the fourth quarter driven by the $12 million decrease due to two fewer days in the first quarter. Excluding the impact of day count, the benefits of higher balances in investment securities and commercial portfolio loans more than offset the effects of loan repricing, higher deposit balances, and debt issuances.

The net interest margin was 3.22 percent, an increase of 1 bp from the previous quarter due to lower cash balances, the impact of two fewer days in the quarter, and the benefit of the fourth quarter 2013 TruPS redemption partially offset by the effects of loan repricing and debt issuances in the first quarter of 2014 and the fourth quarter of 2013.

Compared with the first quarter of 2013, net interest income increased $5 million and the net interest margin decreased 20 bps, driven by higher average loan balances, lower long-term debt expense due to a reduction in higher cost average long-term debt, and run-off in higher-priced CDs, offset by the effects of lower asset yields.

Securities

Average securities and other short-term investments were $22.9 billion in the first quarter of 2014 compared with $23.0 billion in the previous quarter and $16.8 billion in the first quarter of 2013. Average securities of $20.4 billion increased $2.0 billion from the prior quarter due to net additions of approximately $2.1 billion of securities in the first quarter of 2014. The incremental growth in securities primarily reflects purchases of securities with favorable treatment under the proposed LCR standards. Other short-term investments average balances of $2.5 billion decreased $2.1 billion sequentially with lower interest-bearing cash balances held at the Federal Reserve at quarter end that are used to fund loan and securities growth, compared with elevated balances related to debt issuances in the fourth quarter of 2013.

     708        970        1,882        2,766        2,977        (27 %)      (76 %) 

Average loan and lease balances (excluding loans held-for-sale) increased $1.6 billion, or 2 percent, sequentially and increased $3.6 billion, or 4 percent, from the first quarter of 2013. The increase in average loans and leases was primarily driven by growth in the commercial and industrial (C&I), commercial construction, and residential mortgage loan portfolios. The growth was partially offset by declines in commercial mortgage and home equity loans. Period end loans and leases (excluding loans held-for-sale) of $89.7 billion increased $1.1 billion, or 1 percent, sequentially and $4.0 billion, or 5 percent, from a year ago.

Average commercial portfolio loan and lease balances increased $1.7 billion, or 3 percent, sequentially and increased $3.5 billion, or 7 percent, from the first quarter of 2013. The increase from prior periods was largely driven by growth in average C&I loans of $1.5 billion from the prior quarter and $4.0 billion from the first quarter of 2013. Within commercial real estate, average commercial mortgage balances continued to decline and average commercial construction balances increased for the fifth consecutive quarter. Commercial line usage, on an end of period basis, was 30 percent of committed lines in the first quarter of 2014 compared with 29 percent in the fourth quarter of 2013 and 31 percent in the first quarter of 2013.

Average consumer portfolio loan and lease balances were flat sequentially and year-over-year. Average residential mortgage loans were flat sequentially and increased $563 million from a year ago. On a sequential basis, average home equity declined 1 percent while average credit card loans increased 1 percent. Compared with the first quarter of 2013, growth in most consumer loan categories was offset by lower home equity balances as paydowns continue to outpace new production.

Average loans held-for-sale balances of $708 million decreased $262 million sequentially and $2.3 billion compared with the first quarter of 2013. Period end loans held-for-sale of $780 million decreased $164 million from the previous quarter

and $1.9 billion from the first quarter of 2013. Both comparisons reflected lower residential mortgage held-for-sale balances due to the lower volume of mortgage originations.

Average core deposits increased $2.2 billion, or 3 percent, sequentially and increased $6.6 billion, or 8 percent, from the first quarter of 2013. Average transaction deposits, which are included in core deposits, increased $2.2 billion, or 3 percent, from the fourth quarter of 2013 and $7.0 billion, or 9 percent from the first quarter of 2013 driven by higher money market account and interest checking balances, partially offset by lower savings balances. Other time deposits, primarily CDs, increased 2 percent sequentially and decreased 9 percent compared with the first quarter of 2013.

Commercial average transaction deposits increased 3 percent sequentially and 16 percent from the previous year. Sequential growth reflected higher interest checking and foreign office balances and year-over-year growth reflected higher money market account, interest checking, demand deposit, and foreign office balances due to new accounts and customers holding higher balances.

Consumer average transaction deposits increased 2 percent sequentially and 3 percent from the first quarter of 2013. The sequential increase reflected higher money market account, demand deposit, and interest checking balances, partially offset by lower savings balances. Year-over-year growth was driven by increased money market account and interest checking balances partially offset by lower savings and demand deposit balances.

Average wholesale funding of $18.2 billion decreased $825 million, or 4 percent, sequentially and increased $561 million, or 3 percent, compared with the first quarter of 2013. The sequential decrease was driven by a decrease in certificates $100,000 and over and a decrease in other short-term borrowings, partially offset by an increase in long-term debt. Other short-term borrowings on an end of period basis increased $1.3 billion from the prior quarter due to an increase in FHLB borrowings. The year-over-year increase reflected the issuance of certificates $100,000 and over and an increase in long-term debt, partially offset by a decrease in other short-term borrowings. Average long-term debt balances reflected the issuance of $500 million in Bancorp senior debt in the first quarter of 2014, as well as the full quarter impact of the $2.5 billion November of 2013 bank debt issuances.

Noninterest income of $564 million decreased $139 million sequentially and $179 million compared with prior year results. These comparisons reflect the impacts described below.

First quarter 2014 results included a $36 million negative valuation adjustment on the Vantiv warrant. This compares with a $91 million positive valuation on the Vantiv warrant in the fourth quarter of 2013 and a $34 million positive warrant valuation adjustment in the first quarter of 2013. Quarterly results also included charges related to the valuation of the total return swap entered into as part of the 2009 sale of Visa, Inc. Class B shares. Valuation adjustments on this swap were a positive $1 million, negative $18 million, and negative $7 million in the first quarter of 2014, the fourth quarter of

2013, and the first quarter of 2013, respectively. Fourth quarter 2013 results included $9 million in payments received pursuant to Fifth Third’s tax receivable agreement with Vantiv. First quarter 2013 results included $7 million in gains on the sale of certain FTAM advisory contracts. Excluding these items and net securities gains in all periods, noninterest income of $592 million decreased $27 million, or 4 percent, from the previous quarter and decreased $100 million, or 14 percent, from the first quarter of 2013. The sequential and year-over-year decline was primarily due to lower mortgage banking net revenue.

Service charges on deposits of $133 million decreased 7 percent from the fourth quarter, primarily related to seasonality, and increased 2 percent compared with the same quarter last year. Retail service charges decreased 13 percent sequentially and 2 percent from the first quarter of 2013. Commercial service charges decreased 3 percent sequentially and increased 4 percent from a year ago.

Corporate banking revenue of $104 million increased 11 percent from the fourth quarter of 2013 and increased 6 percent from the same period last year. The sequential comparison reflected the $9 million write-down of equipment value on an operating lease during the fourth quarter of 2013. Otherwise, the increase was due to higher syndication fees and institutional sales revenue, partially offset by interest rate derivatives, foreign exchange fees and business lending fees. The year-over-year increase was primarily driven by higher syndication fees and lease remarketing fees, partially offset by foreign exchange fees and interest rate derivatives.

Mortgage banking net revenue was $109 million in the first quarter of 2014, a 13 percent decrease from the fourth quarter of 2013 and a 50 percent decrease from the first quarter of 2013. First quarter 2014 originations were $1.7 billion, compared with $2.6 billion in the previous quarter and $7.4 billion in the first quarter of 2013. First quarter 2014 originations resulted in gains of $41 million on mortgages sold, compared with gains of $60 million during the previous quarter and $169 million during the first quarter of 2013. The decrease from the prior quarter and the prior year reflected lower production and lower gain on sale margins. Mortgage servicing fees this quarter were $62 million, compared with $64 million in the previous quarter and $61 million in the first quarter of 2013. Mortgage banking net revenue is also affected by net servicing asset valuation adjustments, which include mortgage servicing rights (MSR) amortization and MSR valuation adjustments (including mark-to-market adjustments on free-standing derivatives used to economically hedge the MSR portfolio). These net servicing asset valuation adjustments were positive $6 million in the first quarter of 2014 (reflecting MSR amortization of $22 million and MSR valuation adjustments of positive $28 million); positive $3 million in the fourth quarter of 2013 (MSR amortization of $23 million and MSR valuation adjustments of positive $26 million); and negative $10 million in the first quarter of 2013 (MSR amortization of $53 million and MSR valuation adjustments of positive $43 million). The mortgage servicing asset, net of the valuation reserve, was $972 million at quarter-end on a servicing portfolio of $69 billion.

Investment advisory revenue of $102 million increased 4 percent from the fourth quarter and 2 percent year-over-year. The sequential increase was attributable to higher tax-related private client services revenue, which is seasonally stronger in the first quarter, and strong market performance, partially offset by lower brokerage fees. The year-over-year increase was attributable to higher private client services revenue, partially offset by lower securities and brokerage fees.

Card and processing revenue of $68 million in the first quarter of 2014 decreased 4 percent sequentially and increased 5 percent from the first quarter of 2013. The sequential decrease reflected lower transaction volumes compared with seasonally strong fourth quarter volumes. The year-over-year increase reflects higher processing fees related to additional ATM locations as well as an increase in the number of actively used cards.

Other noninterest income totaled $41 million in the first quarter of 2014, compared with $170 million in the previous quarter and $109 million in the first quarter of 2013. Other noninterest income included the effects of the valuation of the Vantiv warrant and changes in income related to the valuation of the Visa total return swap. For the quarters ending March 31, 2014, December 31, 2013, and March 31, 2013, the impact of warrant valuation adjustments were negative $36 million, positive $91 million, and positive $34 million, respectively, and changes in income related to the Visa total return swap were a benefit of $1 million, a charge of $18 million, and a charge of $7 million, respectively. The fourth quarter of 2013 also included $9 million in payments received pursuant to Fifth Third’s tax receivable agreement with Vantiv. First quarter 2013 results also included $7 million in gains on the sale of certain FTAM advisory contracts. Excluding the items detailed above, other noninterest income of $76 million decreased approximately $12 million, or 14 percent, from the fourth quarter of 2013 and increased approximately $1 million, or 1 percent, from the first quarter of 2013.

Net gains on investment securities were $7 million in the first quarter of 2014, compared with $2 million in the previous quarter and $17 million in the first quarter of 2013.

Noninterest expense of $950 million decreased 4 percent from the fourth quarter of 2013 and 3 percent from the first quarter of 2013.

First quarter of 2014 expenses included $51 million in charges to litigation reserves and $4 million in severance expense. Fourth quarter of 2013 expenses included $69 million in charges to increase litigation reserves, $8 million of debt extinguishment costs associated with the redemption of Fifth Third Capital Trust IV, an $8 million contribution to Fifth Third Foundation, and $8 million in severance expense. First quarter of 2013 expenses included a $9 million benefit from the sale of affordable housing investments, $9 million in charges to increase litigation reserves, $3 million in severance expense and a $3 million contribution to Fifth Third Foundation. Excluding these items, noninterest expense of $895 million was down $1 million, sequentially and decreased $77 million, or 8 percent, year-over-year. First quarter 2014 was

also impacted by a seasonal $24 million increase in FICA and unemployment tax expense recorded in employee benefits. The year-over-year decline primarily reflected lower compensation-related expense and benefits expense, primarily reflecting changes in our mortgage and retail staffing.

First quarter other noninterest expense included provision for mortgage repurchases of $3 million. This is compared with a benefit of $26 million in the fourth quarter reflecting the reduction in the mortgage representation and warranty reserve primarily related to Fifth Third’s settlement with Freddie Mac and corresponding expectations for future repurchase requests and file claims and expense of $20 million a year ago. (Realized mortgage repurchase losses were $10 million in the first quarter of 2014, compared with $33 million last quarter as the fourth quarter of 2013 included the impact of the settlement with Freddie Mac and $20 million in the first quarter of 2013).

Consumer nonaccrual TDRs were $126 million in the first quarter of 2014, compared with $136 million in the fourth quarter 2013.

First quarter OREO balances included in portfolio NPA balances described above were $207 million, down $15 million from the fourth quarter, and included $132 million in commercial OREO and $75 million in consumer OREO. Repossessed personal property of $6 million consisted largely of autos.

Loans still accruing over 90 days past due were $94 million, down $9 million, or 9 percent, from the fourth quarter of 2013. Commercial balances over 90 days past due were $1 million compared to an immaterial amount in the prior quarter, and consumer balances 90 days past due of $93 million were down $10 million from the previous quarter. Loans 30-89 days past due of $243 million decreased $33 million, or 12 percent, from the previous quarter. Commercial balances 30-89 days past due of $9 million were down $8 million sequentially and consumer balances 30-89 days past due of $234 million decreased $25 million from the fourth quarter.

(a) The tangible equity, tangible common equity, tier I common equity and tangible book value per share ratios, while not required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP), are considered to be critical metrics with which to analyze banks. The ratios have been included herein to facilitate a greater understanding of the Bancorp’s capital structure and financial condition. See the Regulation G Non-GAAP Reconciliation table for a reconciliation of these ratios to U.S. GAAP.
(b) Under the banking agencies risk-based capital guidelines, assets and credit equivalent amounts of derivatives and off-balance sheet exposures are assigned to broad risk categories. The aggregate dollar amount in each risk category is multiplied by the associated risk weight of the category. The resulting weighted values are added together resulting in the Bancorp’s total risk weighted assets.
(c) Current period regulatory capital data ratios are estimated.

Capital ratios remained strong during the quarter, reflecting growth in retained earnings, and included the impact of the redemption of TruPS and issuance of preferred stock in the fourth quarter of 2013 as well as the payment of preferred dividends and share repurchase activity. Compared with the prior quarter, the Tier 1 common equity ratio* of 9.51 percent increased 12 bps. The tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio* was 8.79 percent (excluding unrealized gains/losses) and 8.93 percent (including unrealized gains/losses). The Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio increased 9 bps to 10.45 percent. The Total risk-based capital ratio decreased 6 bps to 14.02 percent and the Leverage ratio increased 1 bp to 9.65 percent.

Book value per share at March 31, 2014 was $16.27 and tangible book value per share* was $13.40, compared with December 31, 2013 book value per share of $15.85 and tangible book value per share of $13.00.

As previously announced, Fifth Third entered into a share repurchase agreement with a counterparty on January 28, 2014, whereby Fifth Third would purchase approximately $99 million of its outstanding common stock. This transaction reduced Fifth Third’s first quarter share count by 3.95 million shares on the initial transaction date and an additional 602 thousand shares were repurchased on March 31, 2014 upon the settlement of the forward contract related to this agreement. Additionally, as previously announced, the settlement of the forward contracts related to the November 13, 2013 and December 10, 2013 share repurchase agreements occurred on March 5, 2014 and March 31, 2014, respectively, and an additional 3.4 million shares were repurchased upon completion of the agreements which was

reflected in the first quarter share count. In total, the impact to the average diluted share count in the first quarter of 2014 was approximately 23 million shares due to share repurchase transactions in the fourth quarter of 2013 and first quarter of 2014.

U.S. banking regulators have approved final capital rules for U.S. banks, including changes to the definition of capital components (i.e. the numerator of capital ratios) and changes to risk-weighting rules for assets (i.e. the denominator of capital ratios). These final rules implement portions of rules proposed by international banking regulators known as Basel III and Basel II. Fifth Third is not a Basel “Advanced Approach” institution. Therefore, Fifth Third would be subject to the general capital rules governing the capital or numerator portion of these final rules and the “Standardized Approach” for risk-weighting assets. Additionally, Fifth Third would have a one-time irrevocable option to neutralize certain accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) components in capital, comparable to treatment under prevailing capital rules. Fifth Third will also be subject to the Market Risk Rule for trading assets and liabilities, which has been re-proposed for alignment with the other final capital rules. We continue to evaluate the final rule and its impact, which would apply beginning reporting periods after January 1, 2015.

Our current estimate of the pro-forma fully phased in Tier I common equity ratio at March 31, 2014 under the final capital rule, assuming the Company elected to maintain the current treatment of AOCI components in capital, would be approximately 9.1 percent**. This would compare with 9.5 percent* as calculated under the currently prevailing Basel I capital framework. The primary drivers of the change from the prevailing capital framework to the Basel III framework would be an increase in Tier I common equity of approximately 6 bps, which would be more than offset by modestly higher risk-weighted assets. (The largest impact to the numerator is that the new rules would not require the current 10 percent deduction of mortgage servicing rights assets; the largest changes to the denominator would be the treatment of securitizations, mortgage servicing rights, and lending commitments of less than a year.) Were Fifth Third to make the election to include AOCI components in capital, the March 31, 2014 pro forma Basel III Tier 1 common ratio would be increased by approximately 16 bps. Fifth Third’s pro forma Tier 1 common equity ratio exceeds the minimum buffered Tier 1 common equity ratio of 7 percent, comprising a minimum of 4.5 percent plus a capital conservation buffer of 2.5 percent. The pro forma Tier 1 common equity ratio does not include the effect of any mitigating actions the Bancorp may undertake to offset any impact of the final capital rules.

Fifth Third is subject to the Federal Reserve’s (FRB) Capital Plan Rule. Under this rule, we are required to submit our annual capital plan to the Federal Reserve, for its objection or non-objection. The plan includes those capital actions Fifth Third intends to pursue or otherwise contemplate during the period covered by the FRB’s response, which is the second quarter of 2014 through the first quarter of 2015 (the “CCAR period”).

On March 26, 2014, Fifth Third announced that the FRB did not object to Fifth Third’s 2014 CCAR capital plan, which included the potential increase in the quarterly common stock dividend to $0.13 per share during the CCAR period and the potential repurchase of common shares during the same period in an amount up to $669 million. In addition, the capital plan incorporated Fifth Third’s potential repurchases of common shares in the amount of any after-tax gains from

the sale of Vantiv, Inc. (“Vantiv”) stock. These capital plans were intended to maintain common equity capital levels in the current range during the CCAR period. Any such actions would be based on environmental and market conditions, earnings results, our capital position, and other factors, as well as approval by the Fifth Third Board of Directors, at the time.

Tax Rate

The effective tax rate was 27.3 percent this quarter compared with 28.4 percent in the fourth quarter and 30.4 percent in the first quarter of 2013. The first quarter 2013 tax rate was higher due to the expiration of employee stock options.

Other

Fifth Third Bank owns 48.8 million units representing a 26 percent interest in Vantiv Holding, LLC, convertible into shares of Vantiv, Inc., a publicly traded firm (NYSE: VNTV). Based upon Vantiv’s closing price of $30.22 on March 31, 2014, our interest in Vantiv was valued at approximately $1.5 billion. Next month in our 10-Q, we will update our disclosure of the carrying value of our interest in Vantiv stock, which was $423 million as of December 31, 2013. The difference between the market value and the book value of Fifth Third’s interest in Vantiv’s shares is not recognized in Fifth Third’s equity or capital. Additionally, Fifth Third has a warrant to purchase additional shares in Vantiv which is carried as a derivative asset at a fair value of $348 million as of March 31, 2014.

(k)(l) Under the final Basel III rules, non-advanced approach banks are permitted to make a one-time election to opt out of the requirement to include AOCI in Tier I common equity. Other adjustments include mortgage servicing rights and deferred tax assets subject to threshold limitations and deferred tax liabilities related to intangible assets.
(m) Key differences under Basel III in the calculation of risk-weighted assets compared to Basel I include: (1) Risk weighting for commitments under 1 year; (2) Higher risk weighting for exposures to securitizations, past due loans, foreign banks and certain commercial real estate; (3) Higher risk weighting for mortgage servicing rights and deferred tax assets that are under certain thresholds as a percent of Tier I capital; and (4) Derivatives are differentiated between exchange clearing and over-the-counter and the 50% risk-weight cap is removed.
