NEW YORK, July 18, 2012 — The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation (“BNY Mellon”) (NYSE:BK) today reported second quarter net income applicable to common shareholders of $466 million, or $0.39 per common share including the previously announced litigation charge of $212 million (after-tax) or $0.18 per common share, compared with $735 million, or $0.59 per common share, in the second quarter of 2011 and $619 million, or $0.52 per common share, in the first quarter of 2012.

“We continue to grow investment management and investment services fees reflecting the strength of our business model. We are delivering on our operational excellence initiatives, investing for future growth and positioning our businesses to deliver the full breadth of our global capabilities. Our strengthened capital positions us as a preferred counterparty, and provides us greater flexibility for ongoing investment while continuing to return capital to shareholders,” said Gerald L. Hassell, chairman, president and chief executive officer of BNY Mellon.

“Also in the second quarter, we were able to put significant litigation behind us with no material impact on our capital,” added Mr. Hassell.


Note:		See “Supplemental information – Explanation of Non-GAAP financial measures” on pages 11 through 13 for the calculation of the Non-GAAP measure of the return on tangible common equity. The estimated Basel III Tier 1 common equity ratio at June 30, 2012 is based on the Notices of Proposed Rulemaking and final market risk rule released on June 7, 2012.

(a)

The Shareowner Services business was sold on Dec. 31, 2011.

•

Assets under custody and administration amounted to a record $27.1 trillion at June 30, 2012, an increase of 3% compared with the prior year and 2% sequentially. The increases were driven by net new business, partially offset by lower equity market values. Assets under management amounted to $1.3 trillion at June 30, 2012, an increase of 2% compared with the prior year and a decrease of 1% sequentially. Year-over-year, net inflows were partially offset by lower equity market values. On a sequential basis, the decrease resulted from lower equity market values, partially offset by net inflows. Long-term inflows totaled $26 billion and short-term outflows totaled $14 billion. Long-term inflows benefited from fixed income and equity indexed products.

•

Investment services fees totaled $1.7 billion, a decrease of 5% year-over-year and an increase of 2% sequentially. The year-over-year decrease was primarily driven by the impact of the sale of the Shareowner Services business in the fourth quarter of 2011, lower Depositary Receipts revenue and higher money market fee waivers, partially offset by higher Clearing Services fees and net new business. Sequentially, the increase resulted from higher Depositary Receipts revenue, net new business, seasonally higher securities lending revenue and higher Clearing Services fees, partially offset by lower equity market values and transaction volumes.

•

Investment management and performance fees were $797 million, an increase of 2% year-over-year and 7% sequentially. Both increases were driven by higher performance fees. Excluding performance fees, investment management fees decreased 2% year-over-year and increased 2% sequentially. The decrease year-over-year was primarily due to lower equity market values, partially offset by net new business. Sequentially, the increase was primarily due to net new business and higher money market fees, partially offset by lower equity market values.

•

Foreign exchange and other trading revenue totaled $180 million compared with $222 million in the second quarter of 2011 and $191 million in the first quarter of 2012. In the second quarter of 2012, foreign exchange revenue totaled $157 million, a decrease of 15% year-over-year and an increase of 15% sequentially. The year-over-year decrease reflects lower volatility and volumes, while the sequential increase primarily resulted from higher volumes. Other trading revenue was $23 million in the second quarter of 2012 compared with $38 million in the second quarter of 2011 and $55 million in the first quarter of 2012. Both decreases were primarily driven by lower fixed income trading.

•

Investment and other income totaled $48 million compared with $145 million in the second quarter of 2011 and $139 million in the first quarter of 2012. The year-over-year decrease primarily resulted from lower asset-related gains and equity investment revenue. Sequentially, the decline primarily resulted from lower leasing gains, seed capital gains and equity investment revenue.

•

Net interest revenue and the net interest margin (FTE) were $734 million and 1.25% compared with $731 million and 1.41% in the second quarter of 2011 and $765 million and 1.32% in the first quarter of 2012. The year-over-year increase in net interest revenue was primarily driven by higher average client deposits, increased investment in high quality investment securities and higher loan levels, partially offset by narrower spreads and lower accretion. Compared with the first quarter of 2012, net interest revenue was adversely impacted by narrower spreads and lower accretion. Average noninterest-bearing client deposits increased $20 billion, or 46%, compared with 2Q11 and decreased $4 billion, or 6%, compared with 1Q12.

The year-over-year decrease in the net interest margin (FTE) was primarily driven by increased client deposits which were invested in lower-yielding assets reflecting the current market environment. The sequential decrease in the net interest margin (FTE) reflects the impact of narrower spreads and lower accretion.

The provision for credit losses was a credit of $19 million in the second quarter of 2012 primarily resulting from a decline in the expected loss related to a broker-dealer customer that previously filed for bankruptcy, as well as improvements in the mortgage portfolio. There was no provision in the second quarter of 2011 and a provision of $5 million in the first quarter of 2012.

(a)

Reflects direct expenses related to the Shareowner Services business sold on Dec. 31, 2011.

•

Total noninterest expense excluding amortization of intangible assets, M&I, litigation and restructuring charges and direct expenses related to Shareowner Services – Non-GAAP decreased 1% compared with the prior year period, reflecting the impact of our operational excellence initiatives, and increased 1% sequentially. Sequentially, noninterest expenses increased slightly primarily due to the costs of certain tax credits, higher business development expenses and a deposit levy imposed on Belgium banks, including our Belgium bank subsidiary, largely offset by lower staff expense.

The effective tax rate was 15.8% in the second quarter of 2012 and includes a reduction in the tax rate of approximately 9% related to the litigation charge. The operating tax rate – Non-GAAP in the second quarter of 2012 was 26.1% and includes an increased benefit of certain tax credits. The effective tax rate was 26.9% in the second quarter of 2011 and 28.7% in the first quarter of 2012. See “Supplemental information – Explanation of Non-GAAP financial measures” beginning on page 11 for additional information.

The unrealized pre-tax gain on our total investment securities portfolio was $1.4 billion at June 30, 2012 compared with $1.2 billion at March 31, 2012. The increase in the valuation of the investment securities portfolio primarily reflects a decline in market interest rates.

(a)

Preliminary.

(b)

The estimated Basel III Tier 1 common equity ratio at June 30, 2012 is based on the Notices of Proposed Rulemaking (“NPRs”) and final market risk rule released on June 7, 2012. The estimated Basel III Tier 1 common equity ratios of 7.6% at March 31, 2012 and 6.5% at June 30, 2011 were based on prior Basel III guidance and the proposed market risk rule.

(c)

See “Capital” on page 10 for a calculation of these ratios.

(d)

See “Supplemental information – Explanation of Non-GAAP financial measures” beginning on page 11 for a calculation of these ratios.

We generated $527 million of gross Basel I Tier 1 common equity in the second quarter of 2012.

Our estimated Basel III Tier 1 common equity ratio was 8.7% at June 30, 2012 based on the NPRs and final market risk rule. The increase in the ratio from 7.6% at March 31, 2012, which was calculated under prior Basel III guidance and the proposed market risk rule, was primarily due to the reduction in risk-weighted assets related to the treatment of sub-investment grade securities. This benefit was partially offset by the treatment of investment grade securitizations and financial institution exposure, as well as balance sheet growth in the second quarter.

Dividends – On July 18, 2012, The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation declared a quarterly common stock dividend of $0.13 per common share.

On July 18, 2012, The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation also declared a dividend for the period from June 20, 2012 through Sept. 19, 2012 of $1,000 per share on the Series A Noncumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock (liquidation preference of $100,000 per share) (“the Series A Preferred Stock”), payable on Sept. 20, 2012. All of the outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock are owned by Mellon Capital IV, which will pass through the Sept. 20, 2012 dividend on the Series A Preferred Stock to the holders of record as of the close of business on Sept. 5, 2012 of its Normal Preferred Capital Securities.

Estimated Basel III Tier 1 common equity ratio		8.7	%		7.6	%		6.5	%

(a)

The estimated Basel III Tier 1 common equity ratio at June 30, 2012 is based on the NPRs and final market risk rule released on June 7, 2012. The estimated Basel III Tier 1 common equity ratios at March 31, 2012 and June 30, 2011 were based on our interpretation of prior Basel III guidance and the proposed market risk rule.

(b)

Preliminary.

(c)

The NPRs and prior Basel III guidance do not add back to capital the adjustment to other comprehensive income that Basel I makes for pension liabilities and available-for-sale securities. Also, under the NPRs and prior Basel III guidance, pension assets recorded on the balance sheet and adjustments related to equity method investments are a deduction from capital.

(d)

Primary differences between risk-weighted assets determined under Basel I compared with the NPRs and prior Basel III guidance include: the determination of credit risk under Basel I uses predetermined risk weights and asset classes, while the NPRs use an investment grade standard and internal risk models. Securitization exposure receives a higher risk-weighting under the NPRs and prior Basel III guidance than Basel I; also, the NPRs and prior Basel III guidance includes additional adjustments for operational risk, market risk, counterparty credit risk and equity exposures.

Supplemental information – Explanation of Non-GAAP financial measures

BNY Mellon has included in this Earnings Release certain Non-GAAP financial measures based upon tangible common shareholders’ equity. BNY Mellon believes that the return on tangible common equity measure, which excludes goodwill and intangible assets net of deferred tax liabilities, is a useful additional measure for investors because it presents a measure of BNY Mellon’s performance in reference to those assets which are productive in generating income. The tangible common shareholders’ equity ratio is expressed as a percentage of the actual book value of assets, as opposed to a percentage of a risk-based reduced value established in accordance with regulatory requirements, although BNY Mellon in its calculation has excluded certain assets which are given a zero percent risk-weighting for regulatory purposes. BNY Mellon has provided a measure of tangible book value per share, which it believes provides additional useful information as to the level of such assets in relation to shares of common stock outstanding.

BNY Mellon has presented revenue measures which exclude the effect of and noncontrolling interests related to consolidated investment management funds and other revenue related to the Shareowner Services business, which was sold on Dec. 31, 2011; and expense measures which exclude M&I expenses, litigation charges, restructuring charges, amortization of intangible assets and direct expenses related to the Shareowner Services business. Return on equity measures and operating margin measures, which exclude some or all of these items, are also presented. BNY Mellon believes that these measures are useful to investors because they permit a focus on period-to-period comparisons which relate to the ability of BNY Mellon to enhance revenues and limit expenses in circumstances where such matters are within BNY Mellon’s control. The excluded items in general relate to certain ongoing charges as a result of prior transactions or where we have incurred charges. M&I expenses primarily relate to the acquisitions of Global Investment Servicing on July 1, 2010 and BHF Asset Servicing GmbH on Aug. 2, 2010. M&I expenses generally continue for approximately three years after the transaction and can vary on a year-to-year basis depending on the stage of the integration. BNY Mellon believes that the exclusion of M&I expenses provides investors with a focus on BNY Mellon’s business as it would appear on a consolidated going-forward basis, after such M&I expenses have ceased. Future periods will not reflect such M&I expenses, and thus may be more easily compared with our current results if M&I expenses are excluded. Litigation charges represent accruals for loss contingencies that are both probable and reasonably estimable, but exclude standard business-related legal fees. Restructuring charges relate to our operational excellence initiatives and migrating positions to global delivery centers. Excluding these charges permits investors to view expense on a basis consistent with how management views the business. BNY Mellon also presents revenue and noninterest expense results relating to the Shareowner Services business so that an investor may compare those results with other periods, which do not include the Shareowner Services business.

In this Earnings Release, the net interest margin is presented on an FTE basis. We believe that this presentation provides comparability of amounts arising from both taxable and tax-exempt sources, and is consistent with industry practice. The adjustment to an FTE basis has no impact on net income.

Each of these measures as described above is used by management to monitor financial performance, both on a company-wide and business-level basis.
