FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

NORTHERN TRUST CORPORATION REPORTS THIRD QUARTER NET INCOME

OF $204.5 MILLION, EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE OF $0.84.

(Chicago, October 22, 2014) Northern Trust Corporation today reported third quarter net income per diluted common share of $0.84, consistent with $0.84 in the third quarter of 2013 and up from $0.75 in the second quarter of 2014. Net income was $204.5 million, compared to $206.5 million in the prior year third quarter and $181.9 million in the prior quarter. Return on average common equity was 10.1%, compared to 10.6% in the prior year third quarter and 9.2% in the prior quarter.

The prior year third quarter included a $32.6 million pre-tax gain on the sale of an office building property. Excluding this gain, net income per diluted common share, net income and return on average common equity in the prior year third quarter were $0.76, $186.2 million, and 9.6%, respectively. The prior quarter included pre-tax charges and write-offs totaling $42.3 million. Excluding these charges and write-offs, net income per diluted common share, net income and return on average common equity in the prior quarter were $0.87, $209.8 million, and 10.6%, respectively.

Frederick H. Waddell, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Our financial performance in the third quarter of 2014 reflects continued growth in our business serving personal and institutional clients. Trust, investment and other servicing fees, which represent two-thirds of our revenue, increased 11% compared to last year. New business and higher equity markets contributed to strong growth in assets under custody and under management, which increased 13% and 9%, respectively. Our pre-tax profit margin improved to 28.2% in the quarter and our return on equity was 10.1%. This performance reflects ongoing efforts focused on growing our client franchise while achieving sustainable improvements in productivity.”


THIRD QUARTER 2014 PERFORMANCE VS. THIRD QUARTER 2013

Net income per common share was $0.84 in the third quarter of 2014, consistent with $0.84 in the third quarter of 2013. Net income was $204.5 million, compared to $206.5 million in the prior year third quarter. Excluding the prior year third quarter gain on the sale of an office building property, net income per diluted common share and net income in the prior year third quarter were $0.76 and $186.2 million, respectively.

Revenue of $1.08 billion was up $31.7 million, or 3%, from $1.05 billion in the prior year third quarter. Noninterest income increased $19.4 million, or 2%, to $829.6 million from the prior year third quarter’s $810.2 million. Excluding the prior year third quarter gain on the sale of an office building property, noninterest income increased $52.0 million, or 7%, reflecting higher trust, investment and other servicing fees, partially offset by lower foreign exchange trading income as compared to the prior year third quarter. Net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent (FTE) basis increased $11.4 million, or 5%, to $256.2 million compared to $244.8 million in the prior year third quarter, due to higher levels of earning assets, partially offset by a decrease in the net interest margin.

Trust, investment and other servicing fees were $718.2 million, up $70.2 million, or 11%, from $648.0 million in the prior year third quarter. The increase primarily reflects new business and higher equity markets.

Assets under custody and assets under management are the primary drivers of our trust, investment and other servicing fees. The following table provides the assets under custody and assets under management of Northern Trust’s Corporate & Institutional Services (C&IS) and Wealth Management business units.

Custody and fund administration fees, the largest component of C&IS fees, increased 15%, driven by new business as well as the favorable impacts of equity markets and movements in foreign exchange rates. C&IS investment management fees increased 6%, as higher equity markets and new business were partially offset by higher waived fees in money market mutual funds. Money market mutual fund fee waivers in C&IS, attributable to persistent low short-term interest rates, totaled $16.7 million, compared to waived fees of $15.3 million in the prior year third quarter. Securities lending revenue decreased 3%, primarily reflecting lower spreads offset by higher volumes in the current quarter. Other fees in C&IS increased 4%, primarily reflecting new business in investment risk and analytical services.

Trust, investment and other servicing fees in Wealth Management totaled $318.3 million, increasing $30.1 million, or 10%, from $288.2 million in the prior year third quarter. The increased fees are attributable to higher equity markets and new business. Money market mutual fund fee waivers in Wealth Management totaled $16.9 million compared with $17.1 million in the prior year third quarter.

Foreign exchange trading income totaled $46.4 million, down $16.4 million, or 26%, compared with $62.8 million in the prior year third quarter. The decrease is attributable to lower currency market volatility and client volumes as compared to the prior year third quarter.

Other operating income totaled $34.1 million, down $33.1 million, or 49%, from $67.2 million in the prior year third quarter. The prior year third quarter included the $32.6 million pre-tax gain on the sale of an office building property. Excluding the prior year third quarter gain, other operating income was relatively unchanged from the prior year third quarter.

THIRD QUARTER 2014 PERFORMANCE VS. THIRD QUARTER 2013 (continued)

 

Net interest income on an FTE basis totaled $256.2 million, up $11.4 million, or 5%, compared to $244.8 million in the prior year third quarter. The increase is the result of higher levels of earning assets, partially offset by a decline in the net interest margin. Earning assets for the quarter averaged $97.0 billion, up $11.5 billion, or 13%, from $85.5 billion in the prior year quarter, primarily attributable to higher levels of Federal Reserve deposits and securities, reflecting higher levels of non-U.S. office interest-bearing deposits and demand deposits. The net interest margin declined to 1.05% from 1.14% in the prior year quarter, primarily reflecting lower yields on earning assets, partially offset by a lower cost of interest-related funds.

There was no provision for credit losses recorded in the current quarter. A provision of $5.0 million was recorded in the prior year third quarter. Net charge-offs were $5.2 million, resulting from charge-offs of $8.6 million and recoveries of $3.4 million. The prior year third quarter included $8.3 million of net charge-offs, resulting from $11.6 million of charge-offs and $3.3 million of recoveries. Nonperforming assets decreased 19% from the prior year third quarter. Residential real estate loans and commercial real estate loans accounted for 67% and 18%, respectively, of total nonperforming loans and leases at September 30, 2014.

THIRD QUARTER 2014 PERFORMANCE VS. THIRD QUARTER 2013 (continued)

 

Noninterest expense totaled $774.7 million, up $34.0 million, or 5%, from $740.7 million in the prior year third quarter, primarily reflecting higher compensation, employee benefits and equipment and software expense.

Compensation expense, the largest component of noninterest expense, equaled $348.0 million, up $23.4 million, or 7%, from $324.6 million in the prior year third quarter. The increase primarily reflects higher staff levels, base pay adjustments and the unfavorable impact of movements in foreign exchange rates. Staff on a full-time equivalent basis at September 30, 2014, totaled approximately 15,200, up 5% from a year ago.

Employee benefit expense totaled $70.6 million, up $7.1 million, or 11%, from $63.5 million in the prior year third quarter. The increase is attributable to higher expense associated with employee medical benefits and payroll tax expense, partially offset by lower pension expense.

Expense associated with outside services totaled $142.4 million, down 2% from $145.9 million in the prior year third quarter, reflecting decreased consulting and technical services expense, partially offset by increased sub-custodian expense.

Equipment and software expense totaled $100.5 million, up $5.0 million, or 5%, from $95.5 million in the prior year third quarter. The current quarter reflects higher software amortization and related software support costs.

Occupancy expense equaled $43.8 million, up 1% from $43.3 million in the prior year third quarter. Other operating expense totaled $69.4 million, up 2% from $67.9 million in the prior year third quarter.

Income tax expense was $99.7 million, representing an effective tax rate of 32.8%, and $95.0 million in the prior year third quarter, representing an effective tax rate of 31.5%.

THIRD QUARTER 2014 PERFORMANCE VS. SECOND QUARTER 2014

Net income per diluted common share was $0.84 in the current quarter, compared to $0.75 in the second quarter of 2014. Net income totaled $204.5 million, compared to $181.9

million in the prior quarter. The prior quarter included the pre-tax charges and write-offs totaling $42.3 million. Excluding these charges and write-offs, net income per diluted common share and net income in the prior quarter were $0.87 and $209.8 million, respectively.

Revenue was $1.08 billion in both the current quarter and prior quarter. Noninterest income decreased $5.5 million, or 1%, to $829.6 million from $835.1 million. Net interest income on an FTE basis of $256.2 million was up 1% from $253.4 million.

Trust, investment and other servicing fees totaled $718.2 million, up $11.3 million, or 2%, from $706.9 million in the prior quarter, reflecting new business and higher equity markets, partially offset by lower securities lending revenue in the current quarter.

C&IS trust, investment and other servicing fees totaled $399.9 million, up 1% from $395.4 million in the prior quarter.

THIRD QUARTER 2014 PERFORMANCE VS. SECOND QUARTER 2014 (continued)

 

Foreign exchange trading income decreased $6.5 million, or 12%, to $46.4 million compared to $52.9 million in the prior quarter, primarily reflecting lower currency market volatility.

Other operating income totaled $34.1 million, down $6.4 million, or 16%, from $40.5 million in the prior quarter. The decrease is primarily attributable to lower income from currency-related hedging, leasing and loan servicing activities in the current quarter.

Net interest income on an FTE basis totaled $256.2 million, up 1% from $253.4 million in the prior quarter. Earning assets averaged $97.0 billion, up $1.5 billion, or 2%, from $95.5 billion in the prior quarter. The increase is primarily attributable to higher levels of Federal Reserve deposits, partially offset by lower levels of interest-bearing deposits with banks. The higher levels of Federal Reserve deposits reflect increased demand deposits. The net interest margin was 1.05% compared to 1.06% in the prior quarter. Lower yields on earning assets in the current quarter were partially offset by a lower cost of interest-related funds.

There was no provision for credit losses recorded in the current quarter or the prior quarter. Net charge-offs totaled $5.2 million resulting from $8.6 million of charge-offs and $3.4 million of recoveries, compared to $5.9 million of net charge-offs in the prior quarter resulting from $7.8 million of charge-offs and $1.9 million of recoveries. Nonperforming assets decreased 4% as compared to the prior quarter.

Noninterest expense totaled $774.7 million, down $36.3 million, or 4%, from $811.0 million in the prior quarter. The prior quarter included the $42.3 million of pre-tax charges and write-offs. Excluding the prior quarter pre-tax charges and write-offs, noninterest expense increased $6.0 million, or 1%.

Compensation expense totaled $348.0 million, down $24.4 million, or 7%, from $372.4 million in the prior quarter. The prior quarter included severance-related charges of $25.5 million. Excluding the prior quarter charges, compensation expense in the current quarter was relatively unchanged.

THIRD QUARTER 2014 PERFORMANCE VS. SECOND QUARTER 2014 (continued)

 

Employee benefit expense totaled $70.6 million for the current quarter, up 3% from $68.5 million in the prior quarter. The prior quarter included $1.9 million of severance-related charges. Excluding the prior quarter charges, employee benefit expense increased 6% from the prior quarter, primarily reflecting increased expense associated with employee medical benefits.

Expense for outside services totaled $142.4 million, down 2% from $144.6 million in the prior quarter. The prior quarter included $1.1 million of severance-related charges.

Equipment and software expense totaled $100.5 million, down $15.6 million, or 13%, from $116.1 million in the prior quarter. The prior quarter included write-offs of replaced or eliminated software totaling $9.5 million. Excluding the prior quarter write-offs, equipment and software expense in the current quarter decreased $6.1 million, or 6%, due to lower software amortization and computer depreciation expense.

Occupancy expense totaled $43.8 million, down $3.4 million, or 7%, from $47.2 million in the prior quarter. The prior quarter included $4.3 million of charges related to reductions in office space. Excluding the prior quarter charges, occupancy expense increased slightly in the current quarter.

Other operating expense totaled $69.4 million, up $7.2 million, or 12%, from $62.2 million in the prior quarter, primarily attributable to increased expense associated with account servicing activities.

Income tax expense in the current and prior quarter totaled $99.7 million and $88.8 million, respectively, each representing an effective tax rate of 32.8%.

STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Total stockholders’ equity averaged $8.3 billion, up 8% from the prior year third quarter’s average of $7.7 billion. The increase is primarily attributable to earnings and the issuance of preferred stock, partially offset by dividend declarations and the repurchase of common stock pursuant to the Corporation’s share buyback program. During the current quarter, the Corporation issued 16,000 shares of preferred stock for proceeds of $388.5 million, net of underwriting discounts, commissions and other issuance costs. During the three and nine

RECONCILIATION OF REPORTED NET INTEREST INCOME TO FULLY TAXABLE EQUIVALENT

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