BNY Mellon 4Q12 Quarterly Earnings Review
FOURTH QUARTER 2012 FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
(comparisons are unannualized 4Q12 vs. 4Q11 unless otherwise stated)
| • | | Earnings per common share was $0.53 in 4Q12 compared with $0.42 in 4Q11, which included restructuring charges related to our operational excellence initiatives of $0.06. |
| • | | Net income applicable to common shareholders was $622 million in 4Q12 compared with $505 million in 4Q11, which included after-tax restructuring charges related to efficiency initiatives of $67 million. |
| • | | Total revenue of $3.6 billion, up 2%. |
| • | | Fee and other revenue up 3%. |
| • | | Investment services fees increased 1% primarily due to higher asset servicing, clearing and treasury services revenue, partially offset by the impact of the sale of the Shareowner Services business in 4Q11 as well as lower Depositary Receipts and Corporate Trust revenue. Excluding the impact of the sale of the Shareowner Services business, investment services fees increased 3%. |
| • | | Investment management and performance fees increased 17%, or 15% excluding the Meriten acquisition (see page 7), driven by higher market values, net new business, lower fee waivers and higher performance fees. |
| • | | Foreign exchange revenue decreased 42% as a result of a sharp decline in volatility and a modest decline in volumes. |
| • | | Investment and other income decreased 21% primarily reflecting the pre-tax gain on the sale of the Shareowner Services business recorded in 4Q11 which was partially offset by the write-down on an equity investment also recorded in 4Q11. Additionally, 4Q12 includes higher net gains on loans held-for-sale retained from a previously divested bank subsidiary. |
| • | | Net securities gains were $50 million in 4Q12. |
| • | | Net interest revenue decreased 7% (flat including net securities gains) primarily driven by the elimination of interest on European Central Bank deposits, lower accretion and lower yields on the reinvestment of securities, partially offset by higher interest-earning assets driven by higher deposit levels. |
| • | | The provision for credit losses was a credit of $61 million, largely driven by a reduction in the allowance for credit losses related to the residential mortgage loan portfolio. |
| • | | Noninterest expense was flat on a GAAP basis, and increased 7% excluding amortization of intangible assets, M&I, litigation and restructuring charges and direct expenses related to the Shareowner Services business. |
| • | | The effective tax rate was 24.3% in 4Q12, which primarily reflects a benefit associated with the reorganization of certain foreign operations. |
• | | Assets under custody/administration and Assets under management |
| • | | AUC/A of $26.7 trillion, an increase of 9% reflecting higher market values and net new business. |
| • | | New AUC wins of $190 billion in 4Q12. |
| • | | AUM of a record $1.4 trillion, an increase of 10% driven by higher market values and net new business. |
| • | | Long-term inflows totaled $14 billion in 4Q12. |
| • | | Short-term outflows totaled $6 billion in 4Q12. |
| • | | Estimated Basel III Tier 1 common equity ratio – Non-GAAP 9.8%(a) |
| • | | Return on tangible common equity – Non-GAAP 19%. (a) |
| • | | Repurchased 49.8 million common shares for $1.1 billion in 2012. |
(a) | See “Supplemental information – Explanation of Non-GAAP financial measures” beginning on page 19 for GAAP to Non-GAAP reconciliations. |
Certain immaterial reclassifications have been made to prior periods to place them on a basis comparable with the current period presentation. Unless otherwise noted, the results for all periods in 2011 include the impact of Shareowner Services. Sequential growth rates are unannualized.

N/M – Not meaningful.
KEY POINTS
• | | Asset servicing fees were $945 million, an increase of 7% year-over-year and flat sequentially. The year-over-year increase primarily reflects net new business, improved market values and higher global collateral management revenue. Sequentially, net new business and higher global collateral management revenue were primarily offset by lower securities lending revenue driven by lower loan balances and spreads. |
• | | Issuer services fees excluding Shareowner Services were $215 million, a decrease of 12% year-over-year and 31% sequentially. The year-over-year decrease primarily resulted from lower Depositary Receipts revenue driven by lower volumes and lower Corporate Trust fees reflecting the continued net run-off of structured debt securitizations. The sequential decrease primarily resulted from a $107 million decrease in Depositary Receipts revenue, largely reflecting seasonality. |
• | | Clearing services fees were $294 million, an increase of 6% year-over-year and 2% sequentially. Both increases primarily reflect higher mutual fund fees driven by increases in positions and assets, higher cash management balances, and an increase in DARTS. The year-over-year increase also reflects the impact of higher clearance revenue. |
• | | Treasury services fees were $141 million, an increase of 5% year-over-year and 2% sequentially. Both increases primarily reflect higher volumes in cash management services and higher money market fees. |

• | | Investment management and performance fees were $853 million, an increase of 17% year-over-year and 9% sequentially. Both increases were impacted by the acquisition of the remaining 50% interest in the West LB Mellon Asset Management joint venture, subsequently renamed Meriten Investment Management (“Meriten”). Excluding the Meriten acquisition, investment management and performance fees increased 15% year-over-year and 8% sequentially driven by higher market values, net new business and higher performance fees. The year-over-year increase also reflects lower money market fee waivers. |

Foreign exchange and other trading revenue totaled $139 million compared with $228 million in 4Q11 and $182 million in 3Q12. In 4Q12, foreign exchange revenue totaled $106 million, a decrease of 42% year-over-year and 12% sequentially. Both decreases reflect a sharp decline in volatility and a modest decrease in volumes. Other trading revenue was $33 million in 4Q12 compared with $45 million in 4Q11 and $61 million in 3Q12. The decreases compared with both prior periods reflect lower fixed income trading revenue primarily driven by lower interest rate derivative trading revenue.

Investment and other income totaled $116 million compared with $146 million in 4Q11 and $124 million in 3Q12. The year-over-year decrease primarily reflects the pre-tax gain on the sale of the Shareowner Services business recorded in 4Q11 which was partially offset by the write-down on an equity investment also recorded in 4Q11. Additionally, 4Q12 includes higher net gains on loans held-for-sale retained from a previously divested bank subsidiary. Sequentially, the decrease primarily reflects lower seed capital gains and equity investment revenue, partially offset by higher leasing gains.
• | | Net securities gains were $50 million in 4Q12. |

KEY POINTS
• | | Net interest revenue totaled $725 million in 4Q12, a decrease of $55 million compared with 4Q11 and $24 million sequentially. The year-over-year decrease in net interest revenue was primarily driven by the elimination of interest on European Central Bank deposits, lower accretion and lower yields on the reinvestment of securities, partially offset by higher interest-earning assets driven by higher deposits levels. The decrease in net interest revenue compared with 3Q12 primarily reflects lower LIBOR rates, lower yields on the reinvestment of securities and lower accretion, partially offset by higher interest-earning assets driven by higher deposits levels. |
• | | The net interest margin (FTE) was 1.09% in 4Q12 compared with 1.27% in 4Q11 and 1.20% in 3Q12. The decreases in net interest margin (FTE) compared with both prior periods primarily reflect higher interest-earning assets driven by higher deposit levels, lower reinvestment yields, the elimination of interest on European Central Bank deposits and lower accretion. |
• | | The current low interest rate environment continues to negatively impact net interest revenue. It has driven significant improvement in the value of the investment securities portfolio while creating the opportunity for us to realize gains as we rebalance and manage the duration risk of the portfolio. Gains realized on these sales should be considered along with net interest revenue when evaluating our overall results. In 4Q12, combined net interest revenue and net securities gains totaled $775 million, compared with $777 million in the year-ago quarter and $771 million in the linked quarter. |

N/M – Not meaningful.
KEY POINTS
• | | Total noninterest expense increased 7% year-over-year and 4% sequentially excluding amortization of intangible assets, M&I, litigation and restructuring charges and direct expenses related to Shareowner Services (Non-GAAP). Both increases were primarily driven by revenue mix as the lower interest rate environment and tepid capital markets have driven a decline in our low variable cost businesses, such as Depositary Receipts, foreign exchange and other trading and net interest revenue. These revenue declines were offset by increases in investment management, asset servicing, clearing and treasury services fees, all of which come with higher variable costs. Additionally, higher software amortization expense, business development expense and the Meriten acquisition increased noninterest expense both year-over-year and sequentially. |
• | | The restructuring charge in 4Q12 includes severance charges and a lease restructuring related to our operational excellence initiatives, which were primarily offset by a gain on the sale of a property. The net restructuring charge totaled less than $1 million in 4Q12. |
• | | Noninterest expenses were $11,333 million in full-year 2012, an increase of $221 million compared with full-year 2011. The increase in noninterest expense was driven by revenue mix and the cost of generating certain tax credits. In addition, our operational excellence initiatives savings primarily offset the impact of headwinds related to compensation and other operating expenses. |

| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(b) | The estimated Basel III Tier 1 common equity ratios at Sept. 30, 2012 and Dec. 31, 2012 was based on the Notices of Proposed Rulemaking (“NPRs”) and final market risk rule initially released on June 7, 2012 and published in the Federal Register on Aug. 30, 2012. The estimated Basel III Tier 1 common equity ratio of 7.1% at Dec. 31, 2011 was based on prior Basel III guidance and the proposed market risk rule. |
(c) | See “Supplemental information – Explanation of Non-GAAP financial measures” beginning on page 19 for a calculation of these ratios. |
Our estimated Basel III Tier 1 common equity ratio – Non-GAAP was 9.8% at Dec. 31, 2012 compared to 9.3% at Sept. 30, 2012. The increase was primarily due to lower risk-weighted assets.

BNY Mellon 4Q12 Quarterly Earnings Review
INVESTMENT SECURITIES PORTFOLIO
At Dec. 31, 2012, the fair value of our investment securities portfolio totaled $100.7 billion. The unrealized pre-tax net gain on our total securities portfolio was $2.4 billion at Dec. 31, 2012 compared with $2.5 billion at Sept. 30, 2012. The decrease in the unrealized pre-tax gain was primarily driven by $50 million of net realized securities gains in 4Q12. During 4Q12, we received $195 million of paydowns and sold approximately $5 million of sub-investment grade securities.
The following table shows the distribution of our investment securities portfolio.

| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) | Loans of consolidated investment management funds are not part of BNY Mellon’s loan portfolio. Included in these loans are nonperforming loans of $174 million at Dec. 31, 2012, $153 million at Sept. 30, 2012 and $101 million at Dec. 31, 2011. These loans are recorded at fair value and therefore do not impact the provision for credit losses and allowance for loan losses, and accordingly are excluded from the nonperforming assets table above. |
Nonperforming assets decreased $92 million from Dec. 31, 2011 to $249 million at Dec. 31, 2012. The decrease primarily resulted from paydowns, sales, return to accrual status and charge-offs, partially offset by additions.

Allowance for lending-related commitments | | | 103 | | | | 117 | | | | 121 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
The provision for credit losses was a credit of $61 million in 4Q12. The credit was largely driven by a reduction in the allowance for credit losses related to the residential mortgage loan portfolio. Our residential mortgage loan portfolio has experienced better performance compared to aggregate industry historical losses. In 4Q12, we began using our actual loan loss experience rather than industry data to estimate the allowance for credit losses. The provision for credit losses was $23 million in 4Q11 and a credit of $5 million in 3Q12.

BNY Mellon 4Q12 Quarterly Earnings Review
INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT KEY POINTS
• | | Assets under management were a record $1.4 trillion at Dec. 31, 2012, an increase of 10% year-over-year and 2% sequentially. Both increases resulted from higher market values and net new business. |
| • | | 13th consecutive quarter of positive long-term flows. |
| • | | Net long-term inflows were $14 billion and short-term outflows were $6 billion in 4Q12. Long-term inflows benefited from fixed income and liability-driven investments. |
• | | Year-over-year, positive operating leverage of 700 basis points, 300 basis points excluding other fee revenue. |
• | | Total revenue was $988 million, an increase of 20% year-over-year and 7% sequentially. Both increases were driven by higher market values, net new business, higher performance fees and the impact of the Meriten acquisition. |
• | | Investment management fees were $801 million, an increase of 16% year-over-year and 3% sequentially. Both increases were impacted by the Meriten acquisition. Excluding the Meriten acquisition, investment management fees increased 14% year-over-year and 2% sequentially. Both increases were driven by higher market values and net new business. The year-over-year increase also reflects lower money market fee waivers. |
• | | Performance fees were $57 million in 4Q12 compared with $47 million in 4Q11 and $10 million in 3Q12. The increases primarily resulted from a higher level of fees generated on liability-driven investments. |
• | | Other revenue was $25 million in 4Q12 compared with a loss of $11 million in 4Q11 and revenue of $40 million in 3Q12. Results in 4Q11 reflect the write-down of an equity investment. The increase compared with 4Q11 also reflects seed capital gains. The decrease compared with 3Q12 primarily reflects lower seed capital gains. |
• | | Net interest revenue was unchanged year-over-year and increased 6% sequentially. Year-over-year, lower spreads were offset by higher average deposits and loans. The sequential increase primarily resulted from higher average loan and deposit levels. |
| • | | Average loans increased 18% year-over-year and 4% sequentially; average deposits increased 7% year-over-year and 11% sequentially. |
• | | Total noninterest expense (ex. amortization of intangible assets) increased 13% year-over-year and 11% sequentially. Both increases reflect revenue mix, the impact of the Meriten acquisition and seasonally higher business development costs which primarily resulted from higher marketing expenses. The year-over-year increase also includes higher distribution and servicing expense and higher staff expense. |
• | | 47% non-U.S. revenue in 4Q12 vs. 44% in 4Q11. |
• | | Newton Real Return Fund awarded Best Multi-Asset Fund by Feri EuroRating Services (November 2012). |
• | | Insight Investment UK Market Neutral Team awarded Investment Team of the Year by S&P Capital IQ Fund Research (October, 2012). |

BNY Mellon 4Q12 Quarterly Earnings Review
INVESTMENT SERVICES KEY POINTS
• | | Investment services fees totaled $1.6 billion, an increase of 3% year-over-year and a decrease of 5% sequentially. |
| • | | Asset servicing fees (global custody, broker-dealer services and alternative investment services) were $916 million in 4Q12 compared with $858 million in 4Q11 and $912 million in 3Q12. The year-over-year increase primarily reflects net new business, improved market values and higher global collateral management revenue. Sequentially, net new business and higher global collateral management revenue were primarily offset by lower securities lending revenue driven by lower loan balances and spreads. |
| • | | New business wins (AUC) of $190 billion in 4Q12. |
| • | | Issuer services fees (Corporate Trust and Depositary Receipts) were $213 million in 4Q12 compared with $245 million in 4Q11 and $310 million in 3Q12. The year-over-year decrease primarily resulted from lower Depositary Receipts revenue driven by lower volumes and lower Corporate Trust fees reflecting the continued net run-off of structured debt securitizations. The sequential decrease primarily resulted from a $107 million decrease in Depositary Receipts revenue, largely reflecting seasonality. |
| • | | Clearing services fees (Pershing) were $294 million in 4Q12 compared with $278 million in 4Q11 and $287 million in 3Q12. Both increases primarily reflect higher mutual fund fees driven by increases in positions and assets, higher cash management balances, and an increase in DARTS. The year-over-year increase also reflects the impact of higher clearance revenue. |
| • | | Treasury services fees were $140 million, an increase of 5% year-over-year and 4% sequentially. Both increases primarily reflect higher volumes in cash management services and higher money market fees. |
• | | Foreign exchange and other trading revenue was $128 million in 4Q12 compared with $196 million in 4Q11 and $158 million in 3Q12. Both decreases reflect a sharp decline in volatility and a modest decrease in volumes. |
• | | Net interest revenue was $585 million in 4Q12 compared with $634 million in 4Q11 and $608 million in 3Q12. Both decreases primarily reflect lower spreads on deposits and lower accretion. |
• | | Noninterest expense (excluding amortization of intangible assets) was $1.8 billion in 4Q12 compared with $1.7 billion in both 4Q11 and 3Q12. The year-over-year increase primarily reflects higher software amortization expense, and higher staff expense driven by revenue mix. The sequential increase primarily reflects higher litigation expense and software amortization expense, partially offset by lower incentive expense. |
• | | 34% non-U.S. revenue in 4Q12 vs. 35% in 4Q11. |

KEY POINTS
• | | Total fee and other revenue decreased $55 million compared with 4Q11 and increased $35 million compared with 3Q12. The year-over-year decrease reflects the impact of the sale of the Shareowner Services business, including the gain on the sale, partially offset by higher securities gains, as well as net gains on loans held-for-sale retained from a previously divested bank subsidiary. The sequential increase was driven by higher net securities gains. |
• | | The provision for credit losses was a credit of $61 million in 4Q12, largely driven by a reduction in the allowance for credit losses related to the residential mortgage loan portfolio. |
• | | Noninterest expense (excluding amortization of intangible assets and M&I and restructuring charges) decreased $20 million compared with 4Q11 and increased $7 million compared with 3Q12. The decrease compared with 4Q11 resulted from the sale of the Shareowner Services business, partially offset by higher staff expense. The increase compared with 3Q12 primarily reflects higher professional, legal and other purchased services and higher business development expense. |

BNY Mellon 4Q12 Quarterly Earnings Review
SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION – EXPLANATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
BNY Mellon has included in this Earnings Review certain Non-GAAP financial measures based upon tangible common shareholders’ equity. BNY Mellon believes that the ratio of Tier 1 common equity to risk-weighted assets and the ratio of tangible common shareholders’ equity to tangible assets of operations are measures of capital strength that provide additional useful information to investors, supplementing the Tier 1 and Total capital ratios which are utilized by regulatory authorities. The ratio of Basel I Tier 1 common equity to risk-weighted assets excludes preferred stock, as well as the trust preferred securities which will be phased out of Basel I Tier 1 regulatory capital beginning in 2013. Unlike the Basel I Tier 1 and Total capital ratios, the tangible common shareholders’ equity ratio fully incorporates those changes in investment securities valuations which are reflected in total shareholders’ equity. In addition, this ratio is expressed as a percentage of the actual book value of assets, as opposed to a percentage of a risk-based reduced value established in accordance with regulatory requirements, although BNY Mellon in its calculation has excluded certain assets which are given a zero percent risk-weighting for regulatory purposes. Further, BNY Mellon believes that the return on tangible common equity measure, which excludes goodwill and intangible assets net of deferred tax liabilities, is a useful additional measure for investors because it presents a measure of BNY Mellon’s performance in reference to those assets which are productive in generating income. BNY Mellon has presented its estimated Basel III Tier 1 common equity ratio on a basis that is representative of how it currently understands the Basel III rules. Management views the Basel III Tier 1 common equity ratio as a key measure in monitoring BNY Mellon’s capital position. The presentation of the Basel III Tier 1 common equity ratio allows investors to compare BNY Mellon’s Basel III Tier 1 common equity ratio with estimates presented by other companies. Additionally, BNY Mellon has provided a measure of tangible book value per share, which it believes provides additional useful information as to the level of such assets in relation to shares of common stock outstanding.
BNY Mellon has presented revenue measures which exclude the effect of noncontrolling interests related to consolidated investment management funds and other revenue related to the Shareowner Services business, which was sold on Dec. 31, 2011; and expense measures which exclude M&I expenses, litigation charges, restructuring charges, amortization of intangible assets and direct expenses related to the Shareowner Services business. Return on equity measures and operating margin measures, which exclude some or all of these items, are also presented. BNY Mellon believes that these measures are useful to investors because they permit a focus on period-to-period comparisons which relate to the ability of BNY Mellon to enhance revenues and limit expenses in circumstances where such matters are within BNY Mellon’s control. The excluded items in general relate to certain ongoing charges as a result of prior transactions or where we have incurred charges. M&I expenses primarily relate to the acquisitions of Global Investment Servicing on July 1, 2010 and BHF Asset Servicing GmbH on Aug. 2, 2010. M&I expenses generally continue for approximately three years after the transaction and can vary on a year-to-year basis depending on the stage of the integration. BNY Mellon believes that the exclusion of M&I expenses provides investors with a focus on BNY Mellon’s business as it would appear on a consolidated going-forward basis, after such M&I expenses have ceased. Future periods will not reflect such M&I expenses, and thus may be more easily compared to our current results if M&I expenses are excluded. Litigation charges represent accruals for loss contingencies that are both probable and reasonably estimable, but exclude standard business-related legal fees. Restructuring charges relate to our operational excellence initiatives and migrating positions to global delivery centers. Excluding these charges permits investors to view expenses on a basis consistent with how management views the business. BNY Mellon also presents revenue and noninterest expense excluding results relating to the Shareowner Services business so that an investor may compare those results with other periods, which do not include the Shareowner Services business.
The presentation of income (loss) from consolidated investment management funds, net of net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interest related to the consolidation of certain investment management funds permits investors to view revenue on a basis consistent with prior periods. BNY Mellon believes that these presentations, as a supplement to GAAP information, give investors a clearer picture of the results of its primary businesses.
In this Earnings Review, the net interest margin is presented on an FTE basis. We believe that this presentation provides comparability of amounts arising from both taxable and tax-exempt sources, and is consistent with industry practice.

Estimated Basel III Tier 1 common equity ratio – Non-GAAP | | | 7.1 | % | | | 9.3 | % | | | 9.8 | % |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) | The estimated Basel III Tier 1 common equity ratios at Sept. 30, 2012 and Dec. 31, 2012 were based on the NPRs and final market risk rule initially released on June 7, 2012 and published in the Federal Register on Aug. 30, 2012. The estimated Basel III Tier 1 common equity ratio at Sept. 30, 2011 was based on prior Basel III guidance and the proposed market risk rule. |
(c) | The NPRs and prior Basel III guidance do not add back to capital the adjustment to other comprehensive income that Basel I makes for pension liabilities and available-for-sale securities. Also, under the NPRs and prior Basel III guidance, pension assets recorded on the balance sheet and adjustments related to equity method investments are a deduction from capital. |
(d) | Primary differences between risk-weighted assets determined under Basel I compared with the NPRs and prior Basel III guidance include: the determination of credit risk under Basel I uses predetermined risk weights and asset classes and relies in part on the use of external credit ratings, while the NPRs use, in addition to the broader range of predetermined risk weights and asset classes, certain alternatives to external credit ratings. Securitization exposure receives a higher risk-weighting under the NPRs and prior Basel III guidance than Basel I; also, the NPRs and prior Basel III guidance includes additional adjustments for operational risk, market risk, counterparty credit risk and equity exposures. |
(e) | Calculated on an Advanced Approaches basis, as amended by Basel III. |
