• Diluted EPS of $5.77, up 12% YOY
• Revenue net of interest expense
increased $360MM, or 4%
• Provision for loan losses grew by
$347MM, or 23%, due to loan growth
and seasoning

1% YOY, primarily due to the lack of
home loans expenses and lower look
back related anti-money laundering
remediation expenses, offset in part
by higher regulatory and compliance
staffing costs
• 2016 income tax expense includes
one-time items of $72MM related to
the favorable resolution of certain tax
matters

4Q16 Operating Expense Detail
12
• Employee compensation and
benefits up 6% YOY primarily due
to higher regulatory and
compliance staffing, as well as
higher average salaries
• Marketing and business
development expenses down 10%
YOY primarily due to lower deposit
and credit card marketing
• Professional fees down 11% YOY,
primarily due to look back related
anti-money laundering remediation
expenses in 4Q15
Note(s)
1. Defined as reported total operating expense divided by revenue net of interest expense
2. 4Q15 operating efficiency ratio adjusted for $37 million in look back related anti-money laundering remediation expenses. Management believes adjusted operating efficiency,
which is a non-GAAP measure, helps investors understand the effect of activities that are not expected to continue and provides investors with a useful metric to evaluate the
company’s ongoing operating performance; see appendix for a reconciliation
4Q16 Provision for Loan Losses and Credit Quality
13
• Reserve build of $143MM and
$77MM YOY increase in net charge-
offs are both due primarily to loan
growth
• Card net charge-off rate increased
29bps YOY to 2.47%
• Card 30+ day delinquency rate of
2.04% increased 32bps YOY
• Student loan net charge-off rate
excluding PCI loans of 1.42%, up
12bps YOY
• Personal loan net charge-off rate of
2.70%, up 42bps YOY
Note(s)
1. Excludes PCI loans which are accounted for on a pooled basis. Since a pool is accounted for as a single asset with a single composite interest rate and aggregate expectation
of cash flows, the past-due status of a pool, or that of the individual loans within a pool, is not meaningful. Because the Company is recognizing interest income on a pool of
loans, it is all considered to be performing

Capital Position

Note(s)
1. Common Equity Tier 1 Capital Ratio (Basel III Fully Phased-in) is calculated using Basel III Fully Phased-in Common Equity Tier 1 Capital, a non-GAAP measure. The
Company believes that the Common Equity Tier 1 Capital Ratio based on Fully Phased-in Basel III rules is an important complement to the existing capital ratios and for
comparability to other financial institutions. For the corresponding reconciliation of Common Equity Tier 1 Capital and risk weighted assets calculated under Fully Phased-in
Basel III rules to Common Equity Tier 1 Capital and risk weighted assets calculated under Basel III transition rules, see appendix
Capital Ratios
• Common Equity Tier 1 Capital Ratio (Basel
III fully phased-in) down 60bps sequentially
due to capital deployment and loan growth
• Repurchased $477MM, or 2%, of shares of
common stock

Expectations for the year ahead
• Disciplined approach to loan growth
• Operating expense growth driven by marketing investments across the business
• Payments volume expected to return to single digit growth
• Capital position allows for strong payout ratio and total yield
• Continue to generate strong returns on equity

Appendix
Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Data
Note(s)
1. Pre-tax, pre-provision income, which is derived by adding provision for loan losses to pre-tax income, is a non-GAAP financial measure which should be viewed in addition to, and
not as a substitute for, the Company's reported results. Management believes this information helps investors understand the effect of provision for loan losses on reported results
and provides an alternate presentation of the Company's performance
2. Adjusted operating efficiency, which is a non-GAAP measure, helps investors understand the effect of activities that are not expected to continue and provides investors with a
useful metric to evaluate the company’s ongoing operating performance
