FIRST QUARTER 2014 FINANCIAL RESULTS

Loans

Average loans of $16.2 billion increased $416 million, or 3% from the fourth quarter, and have increased $716 million on average or 5%, from the year ago quarter.  Record total commercial average loan growth of $420 million from the fourth quarter was attributed to increased line utilization, more origination activity, and fewer loan payoffs.  Commercial and business lending average balances grew $249 million, or 4% on a linked-quarter basis.   Commercial real estate lending average balances grew by $171 million, or 5% from the fourth quarter.  Total average consumer loans were essentially flat compared to the prior quarter as the growth in residential mortgage average balances of $70 million was entirely offset by continued, but slower, run off in home equity and installment loan average balances of $73 million during the quarter.

Deposits

As anticipated, first quarter average deposits of $17.0 billion declined $891 million, or 5% compared to the fourth quarter and have declined $156 million, or 1%, from the year ago quarter.  As part of the Company's previously announced funding strategy to reduce collateralized municipal deposits and replace them with lower cost, longer term FHLB borrowings, average money market balances declined $576 million or 7% from the fourth quarter.  Seasonal outflows led average checking balances to decline $243 million or 3% from the fourth quarter.  Average time deposits continued to decline during the quarter, and have declined $335 million or 17% from the year ago quarter.

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin

First quarter net interest income of $165 million was down $2 million from the fourth quarter.  However, net interest income, net of interest recoveries, actually increased $1 million from the fourth quarter.  In addition, the first quarter had approximately $2 million less interest income due to the day count difference between the quarters.

First quarter net interest margin was 3.12%, a decrease of 11 basis points from the 3.23% reported in the fourth quarter.   Asset yields declined 14 basis points from the fourth quarter. The first quarter had $4 million less in interest recoveries compared to the fourth quarter which accounted for approximately 7 basis points of the decline, with the remainder coming from continued loan yield compression.  Liability cost management actions reduced total funding costs to 31 basis points, and total interest-bearing deposit costs to 19 basis points, for the first quarter.

Noninterest Income and Expense

Noninterest income for the first quarter was $74 million, down $2 million or 3% from the fourth quarter and down $8 million or 10% from the year ago quarter.  The decrease from the year ago quarter was driven by an $11 million decline in net mortgage banking income as refinancing activity has drastically slowed.    Mortgage banking income decreased $2 million from the prior quarter related to a decline in the gain on sales of mortgage loans.  First quarter asset gains and losses declined $2 million from the prior quarter, primarily related to fourth quarter real estate gains.  Core fee-based revenue was relatively flat compared to the prior quarter, as increases in insurance and brokerage commissions were offset by declines in service charges, trust service fees and other non-deposit fees.   

Total noninterest expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 was $168 million, down $12 million from the fourth quarter.  With the decline in expenses, the efficiency ratio improved to 69% for the first quarter.  Personnel expense declined $4 million from the fourth quarter as the Company continues to reduce full time equivalent employees.  Business development and advertising expenses declined by $3 million from the previous quarter, primarily related to increased brand advertising during the fourth quarter.  Legal and professional fees declined $2 million from the prior quarter related to lower consultant expenses.  

Taxes

First quarter income taxes of $21 million were up $7 million from the prior quarter reflecting the recognition of a $6 million tax benefit in the fourth quarter related to a settlement of a tax issue and the expiration of various statutes of limitations.  The effective tax rate for the first quarter was 31%.

Credit

The Company reported another quarter of improving credit quality with nonaccrual loans down 4%, to $178 million compared to the fourth quarter, and down 21% from a year ago.  The ratio of nonaccrual loans to total loans now stands at 1.08%.

Net charge offs of $5 million for the first quarter were flat from the fourth quarter. 

The first quarter provision for credit losses was $5 million, compared to $2 million in the fourth quarter.  The Company's allowance for loan losses was $268 million, representing an allowance equal to 1.63% of loans and a coverage ratio of 151% of nonaccrual loans at March 31, 2014.

Capital Ratios

The Company's capital position remains very strong, with a Tier 1 common equity ratio of 11.20% at March 31, 2014.  The Company's capital ratios continue to be well in excess of both current and proposed "well-capitalized" regulatory benchmarks.

(1) Tier 1 common equity, a non-GAAP financial measure, is used by banking regulators, investors and analysts to assess and compare the quality and composition of our capital with the capital of other financial services companies. Management uses Tier 1 common equity, along with other capital measures, to assess and monitor our capital position.  Tier 1 common equity (period end and average) is Tier 1 capital excluding qualifying perpetual preferred stock and qualifying trust preferred securities.

(2) Efficiency ratio is defined by the Federal Reserve guidance as noninterest expense divided by the sum of net interest income plus noninterest income, excluding investment securities gains / losses, net.  Efficiency ratio, fully taxable equivalent, is noninterest expense, excluding other intangible amortization, divided by the sum of taxable equivalent net interest income plus noninterest income, excluding investment securities gains / losses, net and asset gains / losses, net.  This efficiency ratio is presented on a taxable equivalent basis, which adjusts net interest income for the tax-favored status of certain loans and investment securities.  Management believes this measure to be the preferred industry measurement of net interest income as it enhances the comparability of net interest income arising from taxable and tax-exempt sources and it excludes certain specific revenue items (such as investment securities gains / losses, net and asset gains / losses, net).

(3) Ratio is based upon basic earnings per common share.

(4) Total revenue, a non-GAAP financial measure, is the sum of taxable equivalent net interest income, core fee-based revenues, and other noninterest income categories, as presented on Page 2 in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Page 6 in the Net Interest Income Analysis.

(5) Core fee-based revenue, a non-GAAP financial measure, is the sum of trust service fees, service charges on deposit accounts, card-based and other nondeposit fees, insurance commissions, and brokerage and annuity commissions, as presented on Page 2 in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

(6) March 31, 2014 data is estimated.

(7) The Federal Reserve establishes capital adequacy requirements, including well-capitalized standards for the Corporation.  The OCC establishes similar capital adequacy requirements and standards for the Bank.  Regulatory capital primarily consists of Tier 1 risk-based capital and Tier 2 risk-based capital.  The sum of Tier 1 risk-based capital and Tier 2 risk-based capital equals our total risk-based capital.  Risk-based capital guidelines require a minimum level of capital as a percentage of risk-weighted assets.  Risk-weighted assets consist of total assets plus certain off-balance sheet and market items, subject to adjustment for predefined credit risk factors.

(8) Tangible equity, tangible common equity and tangible assets exclude goodwill and other intangible assets, which is a non-GAAP financial measure.  These financial measures have been included as they are considered to be critical metrics with which to analyze and evaluate financial condition and capital strength.
