LAUNCHED “VALUE FOR SPEND” EXPENSE INITIATIVE
CHICAGO, OCTOBER 18, 2017 — Northern Trust Corporation today reported third quarter net income per diluted common share of $1.20, compared to $1.08 in the third quarter of 2016 and $1.12 in the second quarter of 2017. Net income was $298.4 million, compared to $257.6 million in the prior-year quarter and $267.9 million in the prior quarter. Return on average common equity was 12.2%.
“Our third quarter results continued to demonstrate our ability to drive top-line growth with revenue increasing 11% compared to one year ago. Assets under custody/administration and assets under management ended the quarter up 14% and 19%, respectively, compared to a year ago, reflecting higher markets and our continued success in winning new business. On October 2, 2017, we announced the closing of our acquisition of UBS Asset Management’s fund administration units in Luxembourg and Switzerland, further underpinning our growth strategy in Continental Europe. With our Value For Spend initiative, we plan to reduce our expense run-rate by approximately $250 million by 2020,” said Frederick H. Waddell, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

Q3 2017 vs. Q2 2017

Compensation expense in the current quarter included severance and related charges of $6.0 million. The prior quarter included severance and related charges of $19.5 million. Excluding these charges, compensation expense decreased slightly from the prior quarter due to lower long-term performance based incentive expense, partially offset by higher cash-based incentive accruals and higher salaries due to staff growth.
Employee benefits expense in the current quarter included severance and related charges of $0.6 million. The prior quarter included severance and related charges of $2.5 million. Excluding the severance and related charges, employee benefits increased slightly from the prior quarter primarily due to increases in medical costs, partially offset by lower payroll taxes.
Expense for outside services in the current quarter included outplacement charges associated with severance activity of $0.4 million. The prior quarter included outplacement charges associated with severance activity of $0.8 million. Excluding these charges, expense for outside services increased compared to the prior quarter, primarily due to higher sub-custodian expenses, consulting services, and sub-advisor costs.
Equipment and software expense decreased compared to the prior quarter, primarily reflecting decreased software amortization and disposition charges, partially offset by increased software support and rental costs.
Other operating expense increased compared to the prior quarter, primarily driven by the timing of the Northern Trust-sponsored golf tournament, partially offset by lower charges associated with account servicing activities.
Q3 2017 vs. Q3 2016

Compensation expense in the current quarter included severance and related charges of $6.0 million. Excluding these charges, compensation expense increased primarily related to base pay adjustments, staff growth, and higher cash-based incentive accruals.
Employee benefits expense in the current quarter included severance and related charges of $0.6 million. Excluding the severance and related charges, employee benefits expense increased slightly from the prior-year quarter primarily due to increases in payroll taxes and retirement plan expenses, partially offset by lower medical costs.

THIRD QUARTER 2017 RESULTS (continued)


Expense for outside services in the current quarter included outplacement charges associated with severance activity of $0.4 million. Excluding these charges, expense for outside services increased compared to the prior-year quarter, primarily due to higher consulting services, sub-custodian expenses, market data, and sub-advisor costs.
Equipment and software expense increased compared to the prior-year quarter, primarily reflecting increased software amortization, computer maintenance and rental costs, and software support costs.
Occupancy expense increased compared to the prior-year quarter, primarily due to accelerated depreciation expense related to a previously announced facility exit.
Other operating expense in the prior-year quarter included a $3.5 million charge in connection with the settlement of the remaining securities lending litigation. Excluding this charge, other operating expense increased compared to the prior-year quarter, primarily driven by the timing of the Northern Trust-sponsored golf tournament.
VALUE FOR SPEND
Northern Trust has launched a focused expense management initiative entitled “Value for Spend.” Through this company-wide initiative, Northern Trust intends to reduce the expense run-rate through improved organizational alignment, process optimization and strategic sourcing. Northern Trust expects to realize $250 million in expense run-rate savings by 2020.

The decrease in the provision for income taxes was primarily related to Federal and State research tax credits of $17.6 million recognized in the current quarter due to the completion of a recent study of the Corporation’s technology spend between 2013 and 2016, partially offset by an increase of $4.3 million related to an increase in the Illinois state deferred income tax reserve resulting from an increase in the Illinois income tax rate, and an increase in income before income taxes compared to the prior quarter.

STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

Total stockholders’ equity averaged $10.0 billion, up $809.6 million, or 9% from the prior-year quarter’s average of $9.2 billion. The increase was primarily attributable to earnings and the issuance of preferred stock, partially offset by the repurchase of common stock pursuant to the Corporation’s share repurchase program and dividend declarations. During the third quarter 2016, the Corporation issued and sold 500,000 depositary shares, each representing a 1/100th ownership interest in a share of Series D Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock for proceeds of $493.5 million, net of underwriting discounts, commissions and other issuance costs. During the current quarter, the Corporation declared cash dividends totaling $17.3 million to preferred stockholders and cash dividends totaling $97.3 million to common stockholders. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Corporation repurchased 1,411,696 shares of common stock, including 43,871 shares withheld related to share-based compensation, at a total cost of $124.8 million ($88.43 average price per share) and 3,983,690 shares of common stock, including 459,082 shares withheld related to share-based compensation, at a total cost of $352.5 million ($88.50 average price per share), respectively.

RECONCILIATION TO FULLY TAXABLE EQUIVALENT



The following table presents a reconciliation of interest income, net interest income, net interest margin, and total revenue prepared in accordance generally accepted accounting principles to such measures on an FTE basis, which are non-generally accepted accounting financial measures. Management believes this presentation provides a clearer indication of these financial measures 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.
