ZIONS BANCORPORATION REPORTS EARNINGS OF $0.56
PER DILUTED COMMON SHARE FOR SECOND QUARTER 2014

SALT LAKE CITY, July 21, 2014 – Zions Bancorporation (NASDAQ: ZION) (“Zions” or “the Company”) today reported second quarter net earnings applicable to common shareholders of $104.5 million, or $0.56 per diluted common share, compared to $76.2 million, or $0.41 per diluted share for the first quarter of 2014, and $55.4 million, or $0.30 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2013.

Second Quarter 2014 Highlights

Credit quality remained strong as net loan and lease charge-offs were $6 million, or 0.06% annualized of average loans and leases, compared to $8 million, or 0.08% annualized in the prior quarter. Nonperforming lending-related assets declined 14% quarter over quarter. Both of these and significant improvement in other credit quality metrics were the primary drivers of the reserve release through a net negative provision of $48 million for both funded and unfunded loans.

Net loans and leases held for investment increased $432 million this quarter compared to the prior quarter, to $39.6 billion at June 30, 2014. Average loans and leases increased $419 million this quarter.

Net interest income of $416 million this quarter was essentially unchanged from the prior quarter; the net interest margin decreased slightly to 3.29% from 3.31%.

Loans
Net loans and leases held for investment increased $432 million, or 1.1%, to $39.6 billion at June 30, 2014 from $39.2 billion at March 31, 2014. Increases of approximately $577 million were geographically widespread in commercial and industrial loans, with smaller increases in commercial owner occupied, commercial construction,

and 1-4 family residential loans. These increases were partially offset by decreases of approximately $145 million in term commercial real estate and FDIC-supported and other purchase credit-impaired (“PCI”) loans.

Average loans and leases increased $419 million, or 1.1%, to $39.5 billion during the second quarter of 2014, compared to $39.1 billion during the first quarter of 2014. Unfunded lending commitments were $17.5 billion at June 30, 2014 and remained relatively stable compared to March 31, 2014.

Deposits
Total deposits decreased $861 million to $45.7 billion at June 30, 2014, compared to $46.5 billion at March 31, 2014. Average total deposits for the second quarter of 2014 decreased $320 million, or 1%, to $45.5 billion, compared to $45.8 billion for the first quarter of 2014. The ratio of average loans to average deposits was 87.0% for the second quarter of 2014, compared to 85.5% for the first quarter of 2014.

Shareholders’ Equity
Tangible book value per common share improved by approximately 2% compared to the prior quarter, increasing to $25.13 from $24.53. Compared to the year-ago period, tangible book value per common share improved by approximately 14%.

The estimated Tier 1 common equity ratio was 10.42% at June 30, 2014, compared to 10.56% at March 31, 2014. The decrease was driven by the previously announced termination of the Total Return Swap on collateralized debt obligations (“CDOs”), which increased risk-weighted assets.

Investment Securities
During the second quarter of 2014, the Company did not record any other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) on its investment securities, and no CDO securities were sold during the quarter. Gains on paydowns of CDO securities were $5 million during the second quarter, essentially the same amount as the first quarter.

Net Interest Income
Net interest income of $416 million for the second quarter of 2014 was essentially unchanged from the first quarter of 2014. The net interest margin decreased slightly to 3.29% in the second quarter of 2014, compared to 3.31% in the first quarter of 2014; improvements from a higher loan to earning assets mix were offset by 6 bps of reduction due to lower gross income from FDIC-supported/PCI loans.

Noninterest Income
Noninterest income for the second quarter of 2014 was $125 million, compared to $138 million for the first quarter of 2014. The decrease was due to net gains on sales of CDO securities during the first quarter of 2014. Excluding these gains, noninterest income would have increased by $13 million compared to the first quarter. Improvement in fair value and nonhedge derivative income (loss) resulted from the expense reduction associated with the termination of the Total Return Swap. An increase in other service charges, commissions and fees was due primarily to increased interchange fees from commercial credit cards.

Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2014 was $406 million compared to $398 million for the first quarter of 2014. Changes this quarter were due primarily to (1) an increase in salaries and employee benefits, due primarily to variable compensation accruals; (2) an increase in the provision for unfunded lending commitments; and (3) an increase in professional and legal services. Approximately $5 million of the variable compensation increase resulted from the immediate recognition in expense of equity-based grants that vest over three or four years to employees currently eligible for retirement. These increases were offset by reduced other noninterest expense that resulted primarily from the decreased amortization of the FDIC indemnification asset ($9 million in the second quarter of 2014 compared to $16 million in the first quarter).

Asset Quality
Credit quality further improved as nonperforming lending-related assets declined 14% to $379 million at June 30, 2014 from $441 million at March 31, 2014. Classified loans were $1.2 billion at June 30, 2014, compared to $1.3 billion at March 31, 2014. The ratio of nonperforming lending-related assets to loans and leases and other real estate owned decreased to 0.95% at June 30, 2014, compared to 1.12% at March 31, 2014.

Net loan and lease charge-offs were $6 million in the second quarter of 2014, compared to $8 million in the first quarter of 2014. The decrease was due to recoveries of $17 million during the second quarter, compared to $13 million during the first quarter. Gross loan and lease charge-offs were $23 million during the second quarter of 2014, compared to $21 million in the first quarter of 2014.

The provision for credit losses consists of the provision for loan losses (negative $54 million in the second quarter) plus the provision for unfunded lending commitments ($6 million in the second quarter). The negative provision for loan losses in the second quarter compares to a negative provision of $1 million for the first quarter. The decrease is primarily due to continued improvement in portfolio-specific credit quality metrics and sustained improvement in broader economic and credit quality indicators. The allowance for credit losses was $771 million, or 1.95%, of loans and leases at June 30, 2014, compared to $826 million, or 2.11%, of loans and leases at March 31, 2014.

This press release presents the non-GAAP financial measure previously shown. The adjustments to reconcile from the applicable GAAP financial measure to the non-GAAP financial measure are included where applicable in financial results presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company considers these adjustments to be relevant to ongoing operating results.
The Company believes that excluding the amounts associated with these adjustments to present the non-GAAP financial measure provides a meaningful base for period-to-period and company-to-company comparisons, which will assist investors and analysts in analyzing the operating results of the Company and in predicting future performance. This non-GAAP financial measure is used by management and the Board of Directors to assess the performance of the Company’s business for evaluating bank reporting segment performance, for presentations of Company performance to investors, and for other reasons as may be requested by investors and analysts. The Company further believes that presenting this non-GAAP financial measure will permit investors and analysts to assess the performance of the Company on the same basis as that applied by management and the Board of Directors.
Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied, and are not audited. Although non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by stakeholders to evaluate a company, they have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of results reported under GAAP.
