Appendix II
 
 
 
 
 
(Preliminary)
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

All Information in the preceding tables is presented on a basis prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), unless otherwise indicated.  Certain reclassifications of prior period amounts have been made to conform to the current period presentation.  None of the prior period financial information was materially misstated.

(A)
 
Represents net income, less (i) earnings allocated to participating share awards of $2 million, $11 million, $11 million, $10 million, $6 million, $9 million, $17 million and $11 million in Q4'17, Q3'17, Q2'17, Q1'17, Q4'16, Q3'16, Q2'16 and Q1'16, respectively, and full year of $21 million and $43 million for the years ending December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively; and (ii) dividends on preferred shares of $20 million, $21 million, $19 million, $21 million, $19 million, $21 million, $19 million and $21 million in Q4'17, Q3'17, Q2'17, Q1'17, Q4'16, Q3'16, Q2'16 and Q1'16, respectively, and full year of $81 million and $80 million for the years ending December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
(B)
 
This calculation is generally designed to reflect pricing at merchants accepting general-purpose American Express cards.  It represents the percentage of billed business (generated from both proprietary and GNS Card Member spending) retained by the Company from merchants it acquires, or for merchants acquired by a third party on its behalf, net of amounts retained by such third party.  Effective January 1, 2018, the Company also began including billings volumes related to certain business-to-business products in the calculation of the average discount rate to reflect our expanding business to business product offerings.  Prior periods have been conformed to the current period presentation.
(C)
 
See Appendix I for calculations of net interest yield on average Card Member loans, a non-GAAP measure, and net interest income divided by average Card Member loans, a GAAP measure, and the Company's rationale for presenting net interest yield on average Card Member loans.
(D)
 
Includes reclassification of certain business development expenses from Other expenses to Marketing and business development that are not directly attributable to the adoption of the new revenue recognition guidance.  Total reclassification was $144 million and $6 million for 2017 and 2016 respectively.  Prior periods have been conformed to the current period presentation.
(E)
 
Primarily represents interest expense attributable to maintaining our corporate liquidity pool and funding Card Member receivables.
(F)
 
Primarily represents interest income attributable to Other loans, interest-bearing deposits and our Travelers Cheque and other stored-value investment portfolio.
(G)
 
Adjusted net interest income, a non-GAAP measure that represents net interest income attributable to our Card Member loans and loans Held For Sale (which includes, on a GAAP basis, interest that is deemed uncollectible), excluding the impact of interest expense and interest income not attributable to our Card Member loans. The Company believes adjusted net interest income is useful to investors because it is a component of net interest yield on average Card Member loans, which provides a measure of profitability of our Card Member loan portfolio.
(H)
 
Net interest income divided by average Card Member loans, computed on an annualized basis, a GAAP measure, includes elements of total interest income and total interest expense that are not attributable to the Card Member loan portfolio, and thus is not representative of net interest yield on average Card Member loans.
(I)
 
Net interest yield on average Card Member loans, a non-GAAP measure that is computed by dividing adjusted net interest income by average loans, computed on an annualized basis.  Reserves and net write-offs related to uncollectible interest are recorded through provisions for losses and are thus not included in the net interest yield calculation.  The Company believes net interest yield on average Card Member loans is useful to investors because it provides a measure of profitability of the Company's Card Member loan portfolio.
