CLEVELAND, January 23, 2020 - KeyCorp (NYSE: KEY) today announced net income from continuing operations attributable to Key common shareholders of $439 million, or $.45 per diluted common share for the fourth quarter of 2019, compared to $383 million, or $.38 per diluted common share, for the third quarter of 2019 and $459 million, or $.45 per diluted common share, for the fourth quarter of 2018. Key’s fourth quarter 2019 diluted earnings per share was $.48(a), excluding $.03 per diluted common share related to a previously disclosed fraud and a pension settlement charge. Key's results in the third quarter of 2019 and the fourth quarter of 2018 also included notable items; additional detail can be found on page 24 of this release.


"Key’s fourth quarter results marked a good finish to another strong year for our company. We achieved our seventh consecutive year of positive operating leverage, supported by solid balance sheet growth, continued momentum in our fee-based businesses and strong expense control. Across our company, we continued to add and expand client relationships, which drove growth in loans, deposits and fees.
 
Our ongoing focus on expense management and continuous improvement resulted in lower expenses for the year and a 140 basis point improvement in our cash efficiency ratio, excluding notable items. While we have continued to reduce costs, we remain committed to making strategic investments that will drive future growth and returns. Our recent investments in talent, products and capabilities, including our Laurel Road acquisition in April of last year, have exceeded our expectations, benefiting our top line growth, improving the client experience and driving efficiency.
 
Strong risk management and being disciplined with our capital have also remained top priorities. Credit quality trends remained solid this quarter, and we continue to be diligent in our credit underwriting. We have also returned capital to our shareholders throughout the year in the form of share repurchases and a 9% increase in our common stock dividend.
 
Our CEO transition continues to progress smoothly, and we remain very confident in the way we have positioned Key for the future. We fully expect to continue on the path to achieve our long-term targets and drive improved returns."

     - Beth Mooney, Chairman & CEO

TE = Taxable Equivalent
    
Taxable-equivalent net interest income was $987 million for the fourth quarter of 2019, compared to taxable-equivalent net interest income of $1.0 billion for the fourth quarter of 2018. The decrease in net interest income reflects a lower net interest margin, which was partially offset by an increase in earning asset balances. The net interest margin was impacted by a lag in deposit pricing as interest rates moved lower. Additionally, purchase accounting accretion declined $8 million.

Compared to the third quarter of 2019, taxable-equivalent net interest income increased by $7 million. The increase was driven by higher earning asset balances, partially offset by a slight decline in the net interest margin. The net interest margin reflected lower earning asset yields and the benefit of lower interest-bearing deposit costs.

Key’s noninterest income was $651 million for the fourth quarter of 2019, compared to $645 million for the year-ago quarter. The increase reflects higher operating lease income, as well as growth in corporate services income, driven by higher derivatives income. Investments made in Key's mortgage business continue to drive consumer mortgage income and mortgage servicing fees.

Compared to the third quarter of 2019, noninterest income increased by $1 million, due to growth in investment banking and debt placement fees, related to an increase in commercial mortgage income, as well as seasonally higher corporate-owned life insurance income. The increase was partially offset by lower other income.

Key’s noninterest expense was $980 million for the fourth quarter of 2019, compared to $1.0 billion in the year-ago quarter and $939 million in the prior quarter. The fourth quarter of 2019 included notable items of $22 million, which consist of a pension settlement charge and professional fees related to a previously disclosed fraud loss. The year-ago period included notable items of $41 million, which were efficiency-related expenses and a pension settlement charge, while no notable items were reported in the prior period.

Excluding notable items, noninterest expense decreased by $13 million from the year-ago period, reflecting the successful implementation of Key's expense initiatives, which drove personnel expenses lower. These expenses were partially offset by additional expenses from Laurel Road, which was acquired in April 2019.

Noninterest expense increased $41 million from the prior quarter. The increase was primarily driven by notable items in the quarter - a pension settlement charge of $18 million and professional fees related to a previously disclosed fraud loss of $4 million, as well as seasonally higher business and professional fees and an increase in incentive compensation, driven by higher stock-based compensation related to a quarterly increase in share price.

In the fourth quarter of 2019 and the third quarter of 2019, Key realized pre-tax losses related to a previously disclosed fraud incident of $16 million and $123 million, respectively. Excluding the fraud losses, Key’s provision for credit losses was $93 million for the fourth quarter of 2019, compared to $59 million for the fourth quarter of 2018 and $77 million for the third quarter of 2019.

Excluding the fraud loss, net loan charge-offs for the fourth quarter of 2019 totaled $83 million, or .35% of average total loans. These results compare to $60 million, or .27%, for the fourth quarter of 2018, and $73 million, or .31%, for the third quarter of 2019.

At December 31, 2019, Key’s nonperforming loans totaled $577 million, which represented .61% of period-end portfolio loans.

See below for further information on the Regulatory Capital Rules.

Key's capital position remained strong in the fourth quarter of 2019. As shown in the preceding table, at December 31, 2019, Key’s estimated Common Equity Tier 1 and Tier 1 risk-based capital ratios stood at 9.43% and 10.85%, respectively. Key's tangible common equity ratio was 8.64% at December 31, 2019.

As a “standardized approach” banking organization, Key’s mandatory compliance with the final Basel III capital framework for U.S. banking organizations (the “Regulatory Capital Rules”) began on January 1, 2015, subject to transitional provisions. Key’s estimated Common Equity Tier 1 ratio as calculated under the fully phased-in Regulatory Capital Rules was 9.35% at December 31, 2019. This estimate exceeds the fully phased-in required minimum Common Equity Tier 1 and Capital Conservation Buffer of 7.00%.

Consumer Bank Summary of Operations (4Q19 vs. 4Q18)

Net income attributable to Key of $166 million for the fourth quarter of 2019, compared to $177 million for the year-ago quarter
Taxable equivalent net interest income decreased by $12 million, or 2.0%, from the fourth quarter of 2018, with balance sheet growth offset by lower purchase accounting accretion and change in deposit mix
Average loans and leases increased $2.9 billion, or 9.3%. This was driven by Laurel Road along with strength in residential mortgage and indirect auto lending
Average deposits increased $3.1 billion, or 4.5%, from the fourth quarter of 2018. This was driven by growth in money market deposits, reflecting Key’s relationship strategy
Provision for credit losses increased $12 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2018, driven by balance sheet growth. Credit quality remained stable to the year-ago quarter
Noninterest income increased $8 million, or 3.5%, from the year ago quarter, driven by growth in consumer mortgage income
Noninterest expense decreased $2 million, or 0.4%, from the year ago quarter. The decline reflects the benefit of efficiency initiatives and strong expense discipline. The decline in expense was partially offset by expenses related to the acquisition of Laurel Road

GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations
(dollars in millions)
The table below presents certain non-GAAP financial measures related to “tangible common equity,” “return on average tangible common equity,” “Common Equity Tier 1,” “pre-provision net revenue," “cash efficiency ratio," "earnings per common share excluding notable items," "net loan charge-offs to average loans excluding notable items," and "provision for credit losses excluding notable items."

Notable items include certain revenue or expense items that may occur in a reporting period which management does not consider indicative of ongoing financial performance. Management believes it is useful to consider certain financial metrics with and without notable items, in order to enable a better understanding of company results, increase comparability of period-to-period results, and to evaluate and forecast those results.

The tangible common equity ratio and the return on average tangible common equity ratio have been a focus for some investors, and management believes these ratios may assist investors in analyzing Key’s capital position without regard to the effects of intangible assets and preferred stock. Traditionally, the banking regulators have assessed bank and bank holding company capital adequacy based on both the amount and the composition of capital, the calculation of which is prescribed in federal banking regulations. In October 2013, the federal banking regulators published the final Basel III capital framework for U.S. banking organizations (the “Regulatory Capital Rules”). The Regulatory Capital Rules require higher and better-quality capital and introduced a new capital measure, “Common Equity Tier 1,” a non-GAAP financial measure. The mandatory compliance date for Key as a “standardized approach” banking organization began on January 1, 2015, subject to transitional provisions.

The table also shows the computation for pre-provision net revenue, which is not formally defined by GAAP. Management believes that eliminating the effects of the provision for credit losses makes it easier to analyze the results by presenting them on a more comparable basis.

The cash efficiency ratio is a ratio of two non-GAAP performance measures. As such, there is no directly comparable GAAP performance measure. The cash efficiency ratio performance measure removes the impact of Key’s intangible asset amortization from the calculation. Management believes this ratio provide greater consistency and comparability between Key’s results and those of its peer banks. Additionally, this ratio is used by analysts and investors as they develop earnings forecasts and peer bank analysis.

Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied, and are not audited. Although these non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by investors to evaluate a company, they have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for analyses of results as reported under GAAP.

(a)
Results are from continuing operations. Interest excludes the interest associated with the liabilities referred to in (g) below, calculated using a matched funds transfer pricing methodology.
(b)
Interest income on tax-exempt securities and loans has been adjusted to a taxable-equivalent basis using the statutory federal income tax rate of 21% for the three months ended December 31, 2019, September 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018.
(c)
For purposes of these computations, nonaccrual loans are included in average loan balances.
(d)
Commercial and industrial average balances include $146 million, $144 million, and $132 million of assets from commercial credit cards for the three months ended December 31, 2019, September 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018, respectively.
(e)
Yield is calculated on the basis of amortized cost.
(f)
Rate calculation excludes basis adjustments related to fair value hedges.
(g)
A portion of long-term debt and the related interest expense is allocated to discontinued liabilities as a result of applying Key’s matched funds transfer pricing methodology to discontinued operations.
TE = Taxable Equivalent, GAAP = U.S. generally accepted accounting principles

These concessions are made to improve the collectability of the loan and generally take the form of a reduction of the interest rate, extension of the maturity date or reduction in the principal balance.
