CITIGROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Financial Summary

(1)

Revenues, net of interest expense, and benefits, claims, and credit losses in the table above are disclosed on an owned basis (under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP)). If this table were prepared on a managed basis, which includes certain effects of securitization activities, including receivables held for securitization and receivables sold with servicing retained, there would be no impact to net income, but revenues, net of interest expense, and benefits, claims, and credit losses would each have been increased by $1.166 billion and $1.325 billion in the 2005 and 2004 first quarters, respectively. Although a managed basis presentation is not in conformity with GAAP, management believes it provides a representation of performance and key indicators of the credit card business that is consistent with the way management reviews operating performance and allocates resources. Furthermore, investors utilize information about the credit quality of the entire managed portfolio as the results of both the held and securitized portfolios impact the overall performance of the Cards business. See the discussion of the Cards business on page 17.

(2)

Discontinued operations represents the operations described in the Company's January 31, 2005 announced agreement for the sale of Citigroup's Travelers Life & Annuity, substantially all of Citigroup's international insurance business and Citigroup's Argentine pension business to Met Life, Inc. The transaction is subject to certain domestic and international regulatory approvals, as well as other customary conditions to closing, and is expected to close during the 2005 third quarter. See Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

(3)

The return on average common stockholders' equity is calculated using net income after deducting preferred stock dividends.

(4)

Risk capital is defined as the amount of capital required to absorb potential unexpected economic losses resulting from extremely severe events over a one-year time period. Return on risk capital is calculated as net income divided by average risk capital. Invested capital is defined as risk capital plus Goodwill and Intangible assets excluding Mortgage Servicing Rights, which are a component of risk capital. Return on invested capital is calculated using income adjusted to exclude a net internal charge Citigroup levies on the goodwill and intangible assets of each business offset by each business's share of the rebate of the goodwill and intangible asset charge. Return on risk capital and return on invested capital are non-GAAP performance measures. Management uses return on risk capital to assess businesses' operating performance and to allocate Citigroup's balance sheet and risk capital capacity. Return on invested capital is used to assess returns on potential acquisitions and divestitures and to compare long-term performance of businesses with differing proportions of organic and acquired growth. For a further discussion on risk capital, see page 36.

Management Summary

        Income from continuing operations of $5.168 billion in the 2005 first quarter was up 3% from the 2004 first quarter. The strength of the Company's Global Consumer and Alternative Investments businesses more than offset weaknesses in the Wealth Management and Asset Management businesses. Revenue growth of 6% during the quarter was driven by record revenues in Retail Banking, Transaction Services and Fixed Income Markets. These increases were diversified across the Company's six regions.

        Expenses increased 12% from year-ago levels. Approximately half of the increase was driven by $435 million in repositioning costs, as well as growth in investment spending. The remaining growth was split equally between acquisitions/foreign exchange and underlying growth. Expenses were flat compared to the 2004 fourth quarter.

        The results for the 2005 first quarter reflect the Company's focus on combining world-class products and superior customer service to increase business volumes while maintaining expense discipline. Average loans increased 14% during the quarter, average deposits grew by 15% and average earning assets were up 16%. During the first quarter, the Company continued to invest in its franchises, adding 83 net new branches.

        The credit environment continued to remain favorable for the Company. Global Consumer loss rates in the quarter improved to 2.62% on a managed basis, excluding commercial business, representing an 11 basis point decline from the 2004 fourth quarter. Corporate cash-basis loans declined 9% from December 31, 2004, to $1.73 billion. The Company did not record significant loan loss reserve releases from an improved credit environment during the quarter, as it had during the past several quarters.

        During the 2005 first quarter, Citigroup announced the sale of substantially all of Life Insurance and Annuities, the sale of a portfolio of manufactured housing loans and completed the sale of CitiCapital's Transportation Finance Business.

        The Company continued to allocate resources to build its growth franchises through branch expansion, advertising, technology and people. The Company closed the acquisition of First American Bank (FAB), providing an important presence in the attractive Texas retail banking market. All of these actions reflect a sharpened focus on Citigroup's long-term growth and a rigorous approach to the use of shareholders' capital.

        The Company's equity surpassed $110 billion, with equity capital and trust preferred securities growing to more than $116 billion at March 31, 2005. In January 2005, the Board of Directors increased the quarterly dividend by 10 percent to 44 cents per share. The Company paid out $2.3 billion in dividends during the quarter to its common shareholders, an increase of 11% from the year-ago quarter. The Company maintained its "well-capitalized" position with a Tier 1 Capital Ratio of 8.78% at the end of the quarter. The Company reported a return on common equity in excess of 20%.

        In April 2005, the Board authorized the repurchase of up to an additional $15 billion of our common stock bringing the total authorization to $16.3 billion. The Company repurchased 19 million shares during the 2005 first quarter.

        During the 2005 first quarter, the Company began the implementation of its Five Point Plan. The Five Point Plan strengthens a foundation of values, priorities and internal controls that are essential for sustained long-term growth. Implementation of the Five Point Plan is the Company's top priority.

        In connection with its approval of the FAB transaction, the Federal Reserve Board (FRB) said in its order, dated March 16, 2005, that it expected Citigroup would not "undertake significant expansion during the implementation period [of the Five Point Plan]. The [FRB] believes it important that management's attention not be diverted from these efforts by the demands that mergers and acquisitions place on management resources."

EVENTS IN 2005 and 2004

        Certain of the statements below are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. See "Forward-Looking Statements" on page 64.

Sale of Travelers Life & Annuity and Substantially All International Insurance Businesses

        On January 31, 2005, the Company announced an agreement for the sale of Citigroup's Travelers Life & Annuity, and substantially all of Citigroup's international insurance businesses, to MetLife, Inc. (MetLife) for $11.5 billion, subject to closing adjustments. The transaction has been approved by the Boards of Directors of both companies. Under the terms of the transaction, Citigroup will receive up to $3.0 billion in MetLife equity securities and the balance in cash, which will result in an after-tax gain of approximately $2.0 billion, subject to closing adjustments.

        The transaction encompasses Travelers Life & Annuity's U.S. businesses and its international operations other than Citigroup's life business in Mexico (which is now included within Retail Banking). International operations include wholly owned insurance companies in the United Kingdom, Belgium, Australia, Brazil, Argentina, and Poland; joint ventures in Japan and Hong Kong; and offices in China. The sale transaction also includes Citigroup's Argentine pension business. (The transaction described in the preceding two paragraphs is referred to herein as the Sale of the Life Insurance & Annuities Business).

        In connection with the transaction, Citigroup and MetLife have entered into ten-year agreements under which MetLife will make products available through certain Citigroup distribution channels, subject to appropriate suitability and other standards.

        The transaction is subject to certain domestic and international regulatory approvals, as well as other customary conditions to closing, and is expected to close during the 2005 third quarter.

        The businesses being acquired by MetLife generated total revenues of $1.4 billion and $1.2 billion and net income of $273 million and $249 million, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004. These businesses had total assets of $95 billion at March 31, 2005.

        The Sale of the Life Insurance & Annuities Business will allow Citigroup to redeploy capital to higher growth and higher return opportunities and to maximize shareholder returns, including the repurchase of shares. The businesses being sold were the primary vehicles through which Citigroup engaged in the Life Insurance and Annuities business.

        Results for all of the businesses included in the Sale of the Life Insurance & Annuities Business are recorded separately as Discontinued Operations for all periods presented. The assets and liabilities of the businesses being sold are included in Assets of discontinued operations held for sale and Liabilities of discontinued operations held for sale on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Repositioning Charges

        The Company recorded $435 million ($272 million after-tax) in charges during the 2005 first quarter for repositioning costs. The repositioning charges were predominantly severance-related costs recorded in CIB ($151 million after-tax) and in Global Consumer ($95 million after-tax). These repositioning actions are consistent with the Company's objectives of controlling expenses while continuing to invest in growth opportunities.

Resolution of Glendale Litigation

        During the 2005 first quarter, the Company recorded a $72 million after-tax gain following the resolution of Glendale Federal Bank v. United States, an action brought by Glendale Federal Bank, a predecessor to Citibank (West), FSB, against the United States government.

Acquisition of First American Bank

        On March 31, 2005, Citigroup completed its acquisition of First American Bank in Texas (FAB). The transaction establishes Citigroup's retail branch presence in Texas, giving Citigroup 106 branches, $4.2 billion in assets and approximately 120,000 new customers in the state.

Divestiture of the Manufactured Housing Loan Portfolio

        In March 2005, Citigroup announced an agreement to sell its manufactured housing loan portfolio, consisting of $1.4 billion in loans, to 21st Mortgage Corp. The Company recognized a $109 million after-tax loss in the 2005 first quarter related to the divestiture. The sale is subject to customary regulatory approvals.

10

Divestiture of CitiCapital's Transportation Finance Business

        On November 22, 2004, the Company reached an agreement to sell CitiCapital's Transportation Finance Business based in Dallas and Toronto to GE Commercial Finance for total cash consideration of approximately $4.6 billion. The sale, which was completed on January 31, 2005, resulted in an after-tax gain of $111 million.

Shutdown of the Private Bank in Japan and Related Charge and Other Activities in Japan

        The Financial Services Agency of Japan (FSA) issued an administrative order against Citibank Japan in September 2004. This order requires Citigroup to exit all private banking operations in Japan by September 30, 2005. In accordance with the order, the Private Bank division of Citibank Japan suspended all new transactions with its customers beginning on September 29, 2004.

        In connection with the exiting of private banking operations in Japan, the Company is performing a comprehensive review of the Private Bank's customers and products to develop an appropriate exit plan. During the 2004 fourth quarter, the Company recorded a $400 million ($244 million after-tax) charge related to its anticipated exit plan implementation (Exit Plan Charge). Implementation of the plan may result in additional charges in future periods.

        The Company's Private Bank operations in Japan had total revenues, net of interest expense, of $200 million and net income of $39 million (excluding the Exit Plan Charge) during the year ended December 31, 2004 and $264 million and $83 million, respectively, for 2003.

        On October 25, 2004, Citigroup announced its decision to wind down Cititrust and Banking Corporation (Cititrust), a licensed trust bank in Japan, after concluding that there were internal control, compliance and governance issues in that subsidiary. On April 22, 2005, the FSA issued an administrative order requiring Cititrust to suspend from engaging in all new trust business beginning May 2, 2005. Cititrust is continuing to assure an orderly transition of its relationships with clients.

Sale of Samba Financial Group

        On June 15, 2004, the Company sold, for cash, its 20% equity investment in The Samba Financial Group (Samba), formerly known as the Saudi American Bank, to the Public Investment Fund, a Saudi public sector entity. Citigroup recognized an after-tax gain of $756 million ($1.168 billion pretax) on the sale during the 2004 second quarter. The gain was recognized equally between Global Consumer and CIB.

Acquisition of KorAm Bank

        On April 30, 2004, Citigroup completed its tender offer to purchase all the outstanding shares of KorAm Bank (KorAm) at a price of KRW 15,500 per share in cash. In total, Citigroup has acquired 99.9% of KorAm's outstanding shares for a total of KRW 3.14 trillion ($2.7 billion). The results of KorAm are included in the Consolidated Financial Statements from May 2004 forward.

        KorAm is a leading commercial bank in Korea, with 223 domestic branches and total assets at June 30, 2004 of $37 billion. During the 2004 fourth quarter, KorAm was merged with the Citibank Korea branch to form Citibank Korea Inc.

Credit

        During the 2005 first quarter, the Company continued to experience a favorable world-wide credit environment. The Company released $20 million of general reserves from Global Consumer during the 2005 first quarter consisting of a $17 million net release in the Consumer Finance portfolio and a $3 million net release in Retail Banking. CIB had no general builds or releases during this period. During the 2005 first quarter, the allowance for credit losses declined by $129 million related to credit card securitizations and by $90 million from the sale of CitiCapital's Transportation Finance Business. At March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, the Company's total allowance for loans, leases and commitments was $11.494 billion and $11.869 billion, respectively.

        During the 2004 first quarter, the Company released $171 million of reserves, consisting of $150 million in CIB and $21 million in Global Consumer. At March 31, 2004, the Company's total allowance for loans, leases and commitments was $13.106 billion.

        Management evaluates the adequacy of loan loss reserves by analyzing probable loss scenarios and economic and geopolitical factors that impact the portfolios. See pages 40 - 44 herein and pages 42 - 43 of Citigroup's 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K for an additional discussion of the reserve levels and credit process.

Divestiture of Citicorp Electronic Financial Services Inc.

        During January 2004, the Company completed the sale for cash of Citicorp's Electronic Financial Services Inc. (EFS) for $390 million (pretax).

        Total revenues, net of interest expense, of $21.5 billion in the 2005 first quarter were up $1.3 billion, or 6%, from the 2004 first quarter. Global Consumer revenues were up $481 million, or 4%, in the 2005 first quarter to $12.1 billion, led by a $644 million, or 15%, increase in Retail Banking, reflecting the gain on the divestiture of CitiCapital's Transportation Finance Business and the gain on the resolution of Glendale litigation, as well as growth in customer volumes, and a $62 million, or 2%, increase in Consumer Finance, reflecting an increase in average loans partially offset by a decrease of $22 million in Cards due to spread compression driven by increased cost of funds and higher payment rates versus the prior-year period.

        Corporate and Investment Banking revenues of $6.0 billion in the 2005 first quarter increased $563 million, or 10%, from the 2004 first quarter, including a $368 million or 8% increase in Capital Markets and Banking, reflecting record fixed income market revenue and increased customer activity. Transaction Services increased $195 million or 21% from the 2004 first quarter primarily reflecting higher customer volumes.

        Global Wealth Management revenues of $2.2 billion decreased $132 million, or 6%, from the prior-year period. Smith Barney decreased $63 million, or 4%, from the 2004 first quarter due to the decline in transactional revenue resulting from lower client trading activity. Private Bank decreased $69 million or 12% from the prior year due to the continued wind-down of the Japan business and a decrease in transactional revenue. Asset Management decreased $48 million or 10% from the 2004 first quarter primarily due to a decrease in customer activity. Alternative Investments in the 2005 first quarter increased $686 million from a year ago, primarily due to positive mark-to-market valuations in the private equity portfolio.

Selected Revenue Items

        Net interest revenue of $10.1 billion decreased $530 million, or 5%, from year-ago levels, reflecting the impact of a changing rate environment, business volume growth in certain markets and the impact of acquisitions.

        Total commissions, asset management and administration fees, and other fee revenues of $6.0 billion increased by $188 million, or 3%, compared to the 2004 first quarter, primarily as a result of higher levels of assets under custody and clearing settlement volumes in Transaction Services and Smith Barney.

        Principal transactions revenues of $2.2 billion were up $904 million or 69% from a year ago due to increases in commodities trading and favorable positioning as interest rates increased. Realized gains from sales of investments were up $112 million to $243 million in the 2005 first quarter, primarily due to favorable market fluctuations during the quarter. Other revenue of $2.2 billion increased $490 million, or 29%, from the 2004 first quarter, primarily reflecting increased securitization gains and activity and higher private equity valuations.

13

Operating Expenses

        Total operating expenses were $11.7 billion for the 2005 first quarter, up $1.2 billion, or 12%, from the comparable 2004 period. The increase includes a $435 million charge for repositioning costs, along with increased costs related to acquisitions and higher investment spending.

        Global Consumer expenses were up 10% from the 2004 first quarter, driven by acquisitions as well as increased marketing and advertising costs and repositioning costs. CIB expenses increased 21% from the 2004 first quarter primarily reflecting repositioning costs and increases in non-compensation expenses.

        Benefits, claims, and credit losses were $2.0 billion in the 2005 first quarter, down $427 million, or 17%, from the 2004 first quarter.

        Global Consumer provisions for benefits, claims, and credit losses of $2.1 billion in the 2005 first quarter were down $410 million, or 16%, from the 2004 first quarter due to a better overall credit environment, reflecting decreases in Cardsand Consumer Finance, partially offset by increases in Retail Banking. Total net credit losses (excluding Commercial Business) were $1.899 billion and the related loss ratio was 1.98% in the first quarter of 2005, as compared to $2.257 billion and 2.68% in the 2004 first quarter. The consumer loan delinquency ratio (90 days or more past due) decreased to 1.92% at March 31, 2005 from 2.27% at March 31, 2004. See page 42 for a reconciliation of total consumer credit information.

        Corporate and Investment Banking reported net recoveries in the provision for credit losses of ($56) million in the 2005 first quarter, due to recoveries reflecting improved credit quality in the corporate loan portfolio.

        Corporate cash-basis loans at March 31, 2005 and 2004 were $1.7 billion and $2.9 billion, respectively, while the corporate Other Real Estate Owned (OREO) portfolio totaled $127 million and $94 million, respectively. The decrease in corporate cash-basis loans from March 31, 2004, was related to improvements in the overall credit environment, write-offs, as well as sales of loans in the portfolio. Corporate cash-basis loans at March 31, 2005, decreased $174 million from December 31, 2004.

Income Taxes

        The Company's effective tax rate 32.1% in the 2005 first quarter compared to 31.2% in the 2004 first quarter. The 2004 rate included a credit to the tax provision of $150 million as a result of the closing of certain tax return audits.

Regulatory Capital

        Total capital (Tier 1 and Tier 2) was $103.6 billion, or 12.03%, of net risk-adjusted assets, and Tier 1 capital was $75.5 billion, or 8.78%, of net risk-adjusted assets at March 31, 2005, compared to $100.9 billion, or 11.85%, and $74.4 billion, or 8.74%, respectively, at December 31, 2004.

Accounting Changes and Future Application of Accounting Standards

        See Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of Accounting Changes and the Future Application of Accounting Standards.

Significant Accounting Policies

        The Company's accounting policies are fundamental to understanding management's discussion and analysis of results of operations and financial condition. The Company has identified five policies as being significant because they require management to make subjective and/or complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain. These policies relate to Valuations of Financial Instruments, Allowance for Credit Losses, Securitizations, Income Taxes and Legal Reserves. The Company, in consultation with the Audit and Risk Management Committee of the Board of Directors, has reviewed and approved these significant accounting policies, which are further described in the Company's 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

        The net income line in the following business segment and operating unit discussions excludes discontinued operations. Income from discontinued operations is disclosed within the Corporate/Other business segment. In addition, the Mexico insurance business is now reported within the Retail Banking business. See Notes 4 and 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

        Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period's presentation.

GLOBAL CONSUMER

(1)

See Footnote (4) to the table on page 6 and discussion of Risk Capital on page 36.

        Global Consumer reported net income of $2.819 billion in the 2005 first quarter, up $231 million or 9% from the prior-year period, driven by double-digit growth across all products, partially offset by a $109 million after-tax loss on the sale of a Manufactured Housing Loan portfolio in Other Consumer. Retail Banking net income increased $150 million or 13% in the 2005 first quarter, primarily reflecting a $111 million after-tax gain on the sale of the CitiCapital Transportation Finance business, a $72 million after-tax gain relating to the resolution of the Glendale litigation, and growth in Asia and Mexico, partially offset by a decline in EMEA due to repositioning costs. Cards net income increased $106 million or 11% in the 2005 first quarter primarily due to an improved credit environment and the impact of securitization gains in North America, growth in sales and volumes, and the benefit of foreign currency translation in International Cards. Consumer Finance net income increased $62 million or 11% in the 2005 first quarter primarily due to lower credit losses, lower expenses and higher volumes in North America, as well as improved International Consumer Finance results due to lower credit losses in Japan and growth in personal loans in Asia; this was partially offset by a deterioration in EMEA, which included repositioning and branch expansion costs.

        On March 31, 2005, Citigroup acquired First American Bank in Texas (FAB), which includes 106 branches, $4.2 billion in assets and approximately 120,000 customers in the state of Texas. On July 1, 2004, Citigroup acquired Principal Residential Mortgage, Inc. (PRMI), a servicing portfolio of $115 billion. In the 2004 second quarter, Citigroup completed the acquisition of KorAm, which added $10.0 billion in deposits and $12.6 billion in loans, with $11.5 billion in Retail Banking and $1.1 billion in Cards at June 30, 2004. In January 2004, Citigroup completed the acquisition of Washington Mutual Finance (WMF), which added $3.8 billion in average loans and 427 loan offices. These business acquisitions were accounted for as purchases; therefore, their results are included in the Global Consumer results from the dates of acquisition.

        Global Consumer has divested itself of several non-strategic businesses and portfolios as opportunities to exit became available. These divestitures include a $1.4 billion Manufactured Housing Loan portfolio and the CitiCapital Transportation Finance business, consisting of $4.3 billion of assets, in the 2005 first quarter; Global Consumer's share of Citigroup's 20% stake in Samba in the 2004 second quarter, and a $900 million vendor finance leasing business in Europe in the 2004 fourth quarter.

Global Consumer Net Income—Regional View

        The increase in Global Consumer net income in the 2005 first quarter reflected growth in all regions except EMEA, where year-over-year comparisons were affected by repositioning costs, higher investment expenses due to branch expansion and higher credit losses. North America (excluding Mexico) net income grew $157 million or 9%, primarily reflecting the sale of the CitiCapital Transportation Finance business and the resolution of the Glendale litigation in Retail Banking and an improved credit environment, partially offset by the loss on the sale of a Manufactured Housing Loan portfolio in Other Consumer. Net income in Mexico grew $57 million or 28%, driven by improved customer volumes in Cards and Retail Banking. Net income in EMEA declined $84 million or 41%, primarily due to the impact of repositioning costs of $66 million after-tax ($104 million pretax), as well as business deterioration in the UK's Consumer Finance and Cards businesses, partially offset by the benefit of foreign currency translation. Income in Japan

16

increased by $33 million or 23% reflecting lower credit costs, primarily driven by lower bankruptcies in Consumer Finance. Growth in Asia of $64 million or 26% was mainly due to higher deposit and branch lending revenues and higher investment product sales in Retail Banking, increased loans and sales in Cards, the addition of KorAm, and the benefit of strengthening currencies. The increase in Latin America of $4 million or 9% was mainly due to increased loans and sales in Cards, partially offset by a decline in Retail Banking, primarily due to the impact of repositioning costs of $8 million after-tax ($12 million pretax).

Cards

(1)

See Footnote (4) to the table on page 6 and discussion of Risk Capital on page 36.

        Cards reported net income of $1.086 billion in the 2005 first quarter, up $106 million or 11% from the 2004 first quarter. North America Cards reported net income of $911 million, up $79 million or 9% over 2004, mainly reflecting lower net credit losses as a result of the improved credit environment and the impact of securitization gains, partially offset by lower net interest revenue due to increased cost of funds and higher payment rates. International Cards net income of $175 million increased $27 million or 18% over 2004, reflecting higher sales and volumes, the impact of the KorAm acquisition, the benefit of foreign currency translation and lower taxes, partially offset by the impact of repositioning costs of $13 million pretax ($9 million after-tax).

        As shown in the following table, average managed loans grew 5% from the 2004 first quarter, reflecting growth of 3% in North America and 23% in International Cards. Growth in North America is primarily the result of increased marketing efforts in the U.S. and growth in Mexico accounts. International Cards growth reflected increases in all regions and also included the benefit of the KorAm acquisition and strengthening currencies.

        Total card sales were $86.4 billion, up 9% from the 2004 first quarter. North America sales were up 6% over the prior-year quarter to $71.7 billion, reflecting higher purchase volumes. International Cards sales grew 30% over the prior-year quarter to $14.7 billion, reflecting broad-based growth led by Asia, which included the KorAm acquisition, and the benefit of strengthening currencies.

        Revenues, net of interest expense, of $4.576 billion in the 2005 first quarter were essentially unchanged from the prior-year quarter, reflecting a decline in North America of $119 million or 3% and an increase in International Cards of $97 million or 13%. The decline in North America was mainly due to the impact of higher cost of funds and increased payment rates resulting from the overall improved economy, partially offset by higher securitization-related gains of $258 million, higher purchase sales and increased loans in Mexico. Citigroup recognizes a gain on sale upon the securitization of credit card receivables. Prior to 2005, this gain was allocated

17

between Other Revenue and the Provision for Credit Losses, which reflected the portion of the Allowance for Credit Losses related to the receivables sold. Commencing in 2005, the entire gain on sale upon securitization is recorded in Other Revenue.

        In the 2005 first quarter, Other Revenue includes $258 million of gains, of which $129 million corresponds to the allowance for credit losses for the receivables sold.

        Revenue growth in International Cards reflected the benefit of increased loans and sales in all regions, as well as the benefit of foreign currency translation. Leading the growth was Asia, which included the impact of the KorAm acquisition, and Latin America. Offsetting this increase were declines resulting from the repositioning of our UK Cards and Diners' Club businesses in EMEA.

        Operating expenses of $2.077 billion were $139 million or 7% higher than the prior-year quarter, reflecting the impact of the KorAm acquisition, repositioning actions, foreign currency translation, and higher purchased credit card receivable amortization in North America. Repositioning expenses were $32 million pretax, with $19 million in North America and $13 million internationally.

        The provision for credit losses was $910 million in the 2005 first quarter, compared to $1.228 billion in the prior-year quarter. The decline in the provision for credit losses was mainly in North America and reflected the impact of an improved credit environment and higher levels of securitizations.

        The securitization of credit card receivables is limited to the Citi Cards business within North America. At March 31, 2005, securitized credit card receivables were $87.7 billon, compared to $76.2 billion at March 31, 2004. There was $0.6 billion in credit card receivables held for sale at March 31, 2005, compared to zero at March 31, 2004. Securitization changes Citigroup's role from that of a lender to that of a loan servicer, as receivables are removed from the balance sheet but continue to be serviced by Citigroup. As a result, securitization affects the amount of revenue and the manner in which revenue and the provision for credit losses are recorded with respect to securitized receivables.

        A gain is recorded at the time receivables are securitized, representing the difference between the carrying value of the receivables removed from the balance sheet and the fair value of the proceeds received and interests retained. Interests retained from securitization transactions include interest-only strips, which represent the present value of estimated excess cash flows associated with securitized receivables (including estimated credit losses). Collections of these excess cash flows are recorded as commissions and fees revenue (for servicing fees) or other revenue. For loans not securitized, these excess cash flows would otherwise be reported as gross amounts of net interest revenue, commissions and fees revenue and credit losses.

        In addition to interest-only strip assets, Citigroup may retain one or more tranches of certificates issued in securitization transactions, provide escrow cash accounts or subordinate certain principal receivables to collateralize the securitization interests sold to third parties. However, Citigroup's exposure to credit losses on securitized receivables is limited to the amount of the interests retained and collateral provided.

        Including securitized receivables and receivables held for sale, managed net credit losses in the 2005 first quarter were $2.081 billion, with a related loss ratio of 5.23%, compared to $2.150 billion and 5.33% in the 2004 fourth quarter, and $2.554 billion and 6.69% in the 2004 first quarter. In North America, the 2005 first quarter net credit loss ratio of 5.50% declined from 5.59% in the 2004 fourth quarter and 6.99% in the 2004 first quarter. In International Cards, the 2005 first quarter net credit loss ratio of 3.08% declined from 3.16% in the 2004 fourth quarter and 3.85% in the 2004 first quarter. The decline in these ratios from the prior quarter and prior year was primarily due to the improved credit environment, with the international ratios slightly offset by higher ratios in the UK Cards and Diners Club businesses.

        Loans delinquent 90 days or more on a managed basis were $2.753 billion, or 1.74% of loans, at March 31, 2005, compared to $2.944 billion or 1.78% at December 31, 2004 and $3.152 billion or 2.08% at March 31, 2004. The decline in delinquent loans from the prior quarter and prior year was primarily attributable to improved economic environments across most regions. A summary of delinquency and net credit loss experience related to the on-balance sheet loan portfolio is included in the table on page 41.

Consumer Finance

(1)

See Footnote (4) to the table on page 6 and discussion of Risk Capital on page 36.

        Consumer Finance reported net income of $629 million in the 2005 first quarter, up $62 million or 11% from the 2004 first quarter, reflecting continued growth in North America of $56 million or 13% and improvements in International Consumer Finance of $6 million or 5%. Growth in North America was driven by lower credit losses due to the improved credit environment, lower expenses, and higher revenues due to volumes, partially offset by spread compression. The improved international results reflect increases in Japan from lower credit losses and Asia from personal loan growth, partially offset by a deterioration in EMEA driven by repositioning costs, higher expenses related to branch expansion and higher credit losses in the UK.

        As shown in the preceding table, average loans grew $6.8 billion or 7% compared to the 2004 first quarter, reflecting growth in North America of $5.9 billion or 8%, and in International Consumer Finance of $0.9 billion or 4%. Growth in North America resulted from an increase in all products, driven by real estate-secured and auto loans, with the growth in real-estate-secured loans mainly reflecting portfolio acquisitions. Growth in the international markets was mainly driven by an increase in real estate-secured and personal loan portfolios in EMEA and Asia, and the impact of strengthening currencies, partially offset by a continued decline in EMEA auto loans. In Japan, average loans declined 8% from the comparable 2004 period, as the benefit of foreign currency translation was more than offset by the impact of higher pay-downs and reduced loan demand.

        As shown in the following table, the average net interest margin ratio of 9.84% in the 2005 first quarter decreased 32 basis points from 2004, reflecting spread compression in North America, where the average net interest margin was 8.23%, a decline of 46 basis points from the prior-year quarter. The decline in North America resulted from lower yields in the real estate secured, auto and personal loan businesses, which continue to reflect the shift towards higher-quality loans. The average net interest margin for International Consumer Finance was 15.70% in the 2005 first quarter, increasing 35 basis points from the prior-year quarter, primarily driven by higher yields in Japan and Asia. The increase in Japan was primarily driven by a change in recording adjustments and refunds of interest in Japan. Prior to the 2004 second quarter, a portion of adjustments and refunds of interest charged to customer accounts were treated as reductions in net interest margin. For all subsequent periods, such adjustments and refunds of interest were accounted for in net credit losses. If all adjustments and refunds of interest were accounted for in net credit losses, the average net interest margin ratio for International Consumer Finance in the 2004 first quarter would have been 15.93%.

        Revenues, net of interest expense, of $2.750 billion in the 2005 first quarter, increased $62 million or 2% from the 2004 first quarter. Revenues, net of interest expense, in North America increased $10 million or 1% from 2004, due to growth in receivables, and capital

19

gains related to repositioning of assets in the insurance investment portfolio, partially offset by the impact of the lower yields. Revenue in International Consumer Finance increased $52 million or 6% from the 2004 first quarter, mainly due to growth in Asia, EMEA, and Latin America, as well as the impact of foreign currency translation. Japan declined excluding the impact of foreign currency translation due to lower volumes.

        Operating expenses of $960 million in the 2005 first quarter increased $37 million or 4% from the prior-year period due to higher Consumer Finance International expenses of $77 million or 23%, offset by lower expenses in North America of $40 million or 7%. The increase in International was primarily due to repositioning costs in EMEA of $38 million, the impact of foreign currency translation, investment spending associated with branch expansions in Asia, EMEA and Latin America, partially offset by expense savings from branch closings and headcount reductions in Japan. The decline in North America resulted from efficiencies gained from the WMF integration and reductions in legal, and credit and collection costs.

        The provisions for benefits, claims, and credit losses were $817 million in the 2005 first quarter, down from $910 million in the 2004 fourth quarter, and $916 million in the 2004 first quarter, primarily reflecting lower net credit losses due to improved credit conditions, a $17 million credit reserve release and the shift to better credit quality portfolios in the U.S., and lower credit losses in Japan due to lower bankruptcy losses. Net credit losses and the related loss ratio were $797 million and 3.08% in the 2005 first quarter, compared to $872 million and 3.33% in the 2004 fourth quarter, and $870 million and 3.57% in the 2004 first quarter. In North America, the 2005 first quarter net credit loss ratio of 2.40% was down from 2.61% in the 2004 fourth quarter and 2.79% in the 2004 first quarter, primarily reflecting improvements in the auto and real-estate secured loans, reflecting better overall credit conditions in the market and the shift to better credit quality portfolios. The net credit loss ratio for International Consumer Finance was 5.59% in the 2005 first quarter, down from 5.92% in the 2004 fourth quarter and 6.31% in the 2004 first quarter. The decrease was driven by lower bankruptcy losses in Japan, and was offset by higher loss rates in all other regions, but primarily EMEA. Adjusting the 2004 first quarter net credit loss ratio for the change in treatment of adjustments and refunds of interest in Japan, as discussed above, would have resulted in an International Consumer Finance net credit loss ratio of 6.89%.

        Loans delinquent 90 days or more were $1.875 billion or 1.80% of loans at March 31, 2005, compared to $2.014 billion or 1.90% at December 31, 2004 and $2.127 billion or 2.15% at March 31, 2004. The decrease in the delinquency ratio versus the prior quarter and prior year was mainly due to improvements in North America and Japan, and was partially offset by increases in EMEA.

Retail Banking

(1)

See Footnote (4) to the table on page 6 and discussion of Risk Capital on page 36.

        Retail Banking reported net income of $1.285 billion in the 2005 first quarter, up $150 million or 13% from the 2004 first quarter. The increase in Retail Banking was driven by growth in North America Retail Banking of $166 million or 22%, primarily due to a $111 million after-tax gain on the sale of the CitiCapital Transportation Finance business, a $72 million after-tax gain relating to the resolution of the Glendale litigation, and growth in Mexico. International Retail Banking net income declined $16 million or 4% driven by declines in EMEA of $39 million or 30%, partially offset by improvements in Asia of $30 million or 18%. The decline in EMEA primarily resulted from higher expenses due to repositioning costs of $36 million after-tax ($58 million pretax), continued investment spending, and higher credit losses, partially offset by revenue growth. The increase in Asia primarily resulted from the KorAm acquisition and broad-based revenue growth, partially offset by continued investment spending.

20

(1)

The Bank Deposit Program balances are generated from the Smith Barney channel (Global Wealth Management segment) and the funds are managed by Citibanking North America.

        As shown in the preceding table, Retail Banking grew 2005 first quarter average customer deposits and average loans by 10% and 24%, respectively, from the prior-year period. Average customer deposit growth in North America of 6% primarily reflected increases in higher-margin demand balances in Retail Distribution, the Commercial Business and Mexico, in money market deposits in Retail Distribution, and in Prime Home Finance mortgage escrow deposits due to the PRMI acquisition, partially offset by declines in Retail Distribution time deposits. Average loan growth in North America of 19% reflected increases in Prime Home Finance, Student Loans, Retail Distribution and Mexico, partially offset by a decline in the Commercial Business primarily due to the 2005 first quarter sale of the CitiCapital Transportation Finance business. In the international markets, average customer deposits grew 17% from the prior year, driven by growth in Asia, EMEA and Latin America, which included the benefits of the KorAm acquisition and foreign currency translation. International Retail Banking average loans grew 43%, primarily reflecting the KorAm acquisition, the impact of foreign currency translation and growth in mortgages and personal loans.

        As shown in the following table, revenues, net of interest expense, of $4.947 billion in the 2005 first quarter increased $644 million or 15% from the 2004 period. Revenues in North America of $3.307 billion increased $409 million or 14% in the 2005 first quarter primarily driven by the sale of the CitiCapital Transportation Finance Business, the resolution of the Glendale litigation, loan and deposit growth, and higher net interest margin in Prime Home Finance, partially offset by lower treasury revenues. Retail Distribution revenues grew $101 million or 13% primarily due to the resolution of the Glendale litigation of $110 million ($72 million after-tax) and the impact of higher loan and deposit volumes, partially offset by lower treasury earnings and fee revenues. The Commercial Business revenues grew $204 million or 43% mainly due to the gain on the sale of the CitiCapital Transportation Finance Business of $161 million ($111 million after-tax) and the reclassification of operating leases from loans to other assets and the related operating lease depreciation expense from revenue to expense, partially offset by lower revenues from the absence of the sold transportation business and lower treasury earnings. The reclassification of operating leases, which began in the 2004 second quarter, increased both revenues and expenses by $123 million in the 2005 first quarter. Prime Home Finance revenues grew $50 million or 11% due to higher net interest margin in the home equity and mortgage businesses, as well as the benefit of the PRMI acquisition, partially offset by lower net servicing and securitization revenues. Student loan revenues declined $17 million or 11% primarily due to lower net interest margin and the absence of a 2004 first quarter securitization gain. Primerica revenues grew $20 million or 4% primarily due to increased life insurance premium revenues from higher volumes, the impact of higher loan volumes and higher realized investment gains, partially offset by lower investment portfolio earnings. Mexico revenues increased $51 million or 9% driven by higher loan, deposit and investment volumes, partially offset by lower treasury earnings, which included the impact of higher capital funding costs. International Retail Banking revenues increased $235 million or 17% in the 2005 first quarter, reflecting improvements in Asia, EMEA and Latin America, and included the impact of strengthening currencies and the addition of KorAm, partially offset by a slight decline in Japan. Excluding the impact of foreign currency translation and KorAm, growth in Asia, EMEA and Latin America was driven by higher deposit and branch lending revenues. The decline in Japan was driven primarily by declines in investment product fees and deposit revenues.

21

        Operating expenses in the 2005 first quarter increased $402 million or 18% from the comparable 2004 period. In North America, operating expense growth of $157 million or 10% was mainly driven by the impact of the operating lease reclassification in the Commercial Business of $123 million, repositioning costs of $10 million pretax ($6 million after-tax), higher investment spending and volume-related costs in Retail Distribution, and the impact of the PRMI acquisition. International Retail Banking operating expenses increased $245 million or 33%, mainly reflecting repositioning costs in EMEA of $58 million pretax ($36 million after-tax) and Latin America of $12 million pretax ($8 million after-tax), the impact of foreign currency translation, the addition of KorAm in Asia, and increased investment spending primarily related to branch expansion in Asia, EMEA and Latin America.

        The provisions for benefits, claims and credit losses were $375 million in the 2005 first quarter, up from $368 million in the prior-year period, reflecting higher net credit losses in EMEA, primarily Germany; the absence of a prior-year recovery in Mexico; and the impact of the KorAm acquisition, partially offset by lower credit losses in the Commercial Business due to the improved credit quality of the portfolio. Net credit losses (excluding the Commercial Business) were $192 million and the related loss ratio was 0.46% in the 2005 first quarter, compared to $186 million and 0.46% in the 2004 fourth quarter and $155 million and 0.49% in the prior-year first quarter. The decrease in the net credit loss ratio (excluding the Commercial Business) from the prior-year first quarter was mainly due to the improved credit environment, partially offset by the absence of a prior-year recovery in Mexico. Commercial Business net credit losses were $26 million and the related loss ratio was 0.28% in the 2005 first quarter, compared to $90 million and 0.89% in the 2004 fourth quarter and $50 million and 0.51% in the prior-year first quarter. The improvement in the Commercial Business net credit losses from the prior-year first quarter reflects the improved credit environment, partially offset by higher losses in Asia.

        Loans delinquent 90 days or more (excluding the Commercial Business) were $3.992 billion or 2.30% of loans at March 31, 2005, compared to $4.094 billion or 2.47% at December 31, 2004, and $3.698 billion or 2.86% a year ago. Compared to a year ago, the increase in delinquent loans was primarily due to Prime Home Finance, reflecting the impact of a GNMA portfolio that was purchased in the PRMI acquisition, the impact of foreign currency translation, increases in Student Loans and the addition of KorAm, partially offset by declines in EMEA, primarily Germany, and Latin America.

        Cash-basis loans in the Commercial Business were $593 million or 1.56% of loans at March 31, 2005, compared to $735 million or 1.78% at December 31, 2004 and $1.213 billion or 3.11% a year ago. The decrease in cash-basis loans from the prior year was mainly due to declines in North America (excluding Mexico), where the business continued to work through the liquidation of non-core portfolios, including the sale of the CitiCapital Transportation Finance Business in the 2005 first quarter, and declines in Mexico and EMEA.

        Average assets of $294 billion in the 2005 first quarter increased $53 billion or 22% from the comparable 2004 period. The increase primarily reflected growth in average loans in Prime Home Finance, the impact of the KorAm and PRMI acquisitions, and the impact of foreign currency translation, partially offset by reductions in the Commercial Business due to continued liquidation of non-core portfolios, including the sale of the CitiCapital Transportation Finance business.

22

Other Consumer

        Other Consumer—which includes certain treasury and other unallocated staff functions, global marketing and other programs—reported a loss of $181 million in the 2005 first quarter, compared to a loss of $94 million in the prior-year quarter. The decline in income from the prior-year period reflects the 2005 first quarter loss on the sale of a Manufactured Housing Loan portfolio of $109 million after-tax. Excluding this item, the reduction in losses in the 2005 first quarter was primarily due to the absence of prior-year provisions for litigation reserves, partially offset by higher global marketing and staff-related costs, and lower treasury results, including the impact of higher capital funding costs.

        Revenues, expenses, and the provision for benefits, claims, and credit losses reflect offsets to certain line-item reclassifications reported in other Global Consumer products.

23

CORPORATE AND INVESTMENT BANKING

(1)

See Footnote (4) to the table on page 6 and discussion of Risk Capital on page 36.

        Corporate and Investment Banking reported net income of $1.679 billion in the 2005 first quarter, down $28 million or 2% from the 2004 first quarter.
