“We believe the hard work and focus of our employees throughout 2016 have positioned us well for 2017 and beyond. With our long-term goals firmly in place, we are executing on the initiatives that we have outlined under Project North Star. Although we did not assume improving economic conditions to help us achieve our targets, we should continue to benefit from a more positive operating environment.

“Also, our confidence in our underlying businesses and our outlook has allowed us to increase our quarterly common stock dividend 8 percent to $0.14. Our capital and liquidity ratios remain strong and growing.

“Lastly, during the quarter we announced plans to invest $30 billion in community development, and also announced a newly-created corporate responsibility and reputation office.

Excluding the $16 million reduction for the card refunds, net interest income (FTE)* of $925 million was up 1 percent from the third quarter of 2016. Reported net interest income of $903 million and net interest income (FTE)* of $909 million both decreased $4 million from the third quarter of 2016, primarily driven by the aforementioned card refunds, partially offset by improved short-term market rates in the fourth quarter and higher investment securities balances.

The adjusted net interest margin* was 2.91 percent, up 3 bps from the prior quarter, excluding the aforementioned card refunds. The reported net interest margin was 2.84 percent and the net interest margin (FTE)* was 2.86 percent, both decreasing 2 bps from the previous quarter, primarily due to a 5 basis point impact from the aforementioned card refunds. This impact was partially offset by improved short-term market rates in the fourth quarter.

Compared to the fourth quarter of 2015, adjusted net interest income (FTE)* was up 2 percent, excluding the card refunds. Adjusted net interest margin (FTE)* was up 6 bps from the fourth quarter of 2015, excluding the card refunds. Reported net interest income and net interest income (FTE)*, increased by $4 million and $5 million, or 2 percent, respectively from the fourth quarter of 2015. The reported net interest margin and net interest margin (FTE)* increased by 1 bp year-over-year. The increase in net interest income was driven by the impact of higher investment securities balances and improved short-term market rates, partially offset by the previously-mentioned card refunds. The increase in the net interest margin was driven by improved short-term market rates, partially offset by the previously-mentioned card refunds.

Average securities and other short-term investments were $32.6 billion in the fourth quarter of 2016 compared to $31.7 billion in the previous quarter and $31.3 billion in the fourth quarter of 2015.

Average portfolio loan and lease balances decreased $547 million, or 1 percent, sequentially and decreased $630 million, or 1 percent, from the fourth quarter of 2015. The sequential and year-over-year decrease was driven by both declines in automobile loans related to the strategic decision to reduce auto loan originations to improve return on shareholders’ equity and deliberate exits from certain commercial and industrial (C&I) loans that did not meet risk-adjusted profitability targets. The sequential and year-over-year decreases were partially offset by increases in residential mortgage and commercial real estate loans. Period end portfolio loans and leases of $92.1 billion decreased $1.1 billion, or 1 percent, sequentially and $484 million, or 1 percent, from a year ago. The sequential decrease was primarily due to decreases in C&I and automobile loans, partially offset by an increase in residential mortgage loans. The year-over-year decline was primarily driven by decreases in automobile and home equity loans, partially offset by increases in residential mortgage and commercial construction loans.

Average commercial portfolio loan and lease balances decreased $498 million, or 1 percent, sequentially and were flat from the fourth quarter of 2015. Average C&I loans decreased $568 million, or 1 percent, from the prior quarter and decreased $606 million, or 1 percent, from the fourth quarter of 2015. Average commercial real estate loans increased $111 million, or 1 percent, from the prior quarter and increased $674 million, or 7 percent, from the fourth quarter of 2015. Within commercial real estate, growth was relatively balanced as average commercial mortgage balances increased $69 million and average commercial construction balances increased $42 million sequentially. Period end commercial line utilization of 34% decreased 95 bps from the third quarter of 2016 and decreased 88 bps from the fourth quarter of 2015.

6

Average consumer portfolio loan and lease balances were flat sequentially and decreased $780 million, or 2 percent, from the fourth quarter of 2015. This was primarily driven by average automobile loans which decreased 3 percent sequentially and 13 percent from a year ago. Average residential mortgage loans increased 3 percent sequentially and 10 percent from the previous year. Average home equity loans decreased 2 percent sequentially and 7 percent from the fourth quarter of 2015. Average credit card loans increased 1 percent sequentially and decreased 2 percent from the fourth quarter of 2015.

Average transaction deposits increased $2.2 billion, or 2 percent from the third quarter of 2016 and increased $1.3 billion, or 1 percent from the fourth quarter of 2015.

The year-over-year increase was primarily driven by higher consumer money market and consumer interest checking account balances, partially offset by lower savings and foreign office account balances.

The sequential decrease in average wholesale funding was primarily driven by a decline in long-term debt largely due to maturities early in the fourth quarter. The year-over-year decline reflected a decrease in federal funds purchased resulting from an increase in deposit balances.

Excluding the items in the table above, noninterest income of $608 million increased $12 million, or 2 percent, from the previous quarter and decreased $15 million, or 2 percent, from the fourth quarter of 2015. The sequential increase was primarily due to the $33 million annual payment received from Vantiv pursuant to the tax receivable agreement in the fourth quarter of 2016, partially offset by a decrease in corporate banking revenue. The year-over-year decrease was driven by a decline in mortgage banking net revenue.

Service charges on deposits of $141 million decreased 1 percent from the third quarter of 2016, and decreased 2 percent compared with the fourth quarter of 2015. The sequential decrease primarily reflected a 2 percent decrease in commercial service charges, as well as a 1 percent decrease in retail service charges. The decrease from the fourth quarter of 2015 was primarily due to a 5 percent decrease in retail service charges.

Corporate banking revenue of $101 million decreased 9 percent compared to the third quarter of 2016 and decreased 3 percent from the fourth quarter of 2015. The sequential comparison reflects decreases in institutional sales revenue and lease remarketing fees, partially offset by an increase in foreign exchange fees. The year-over-year decrease was primarily driven by lower lease remarketing fees and letter of credit fees, partially offset by higher foreign exchange fees and institutional sales revenue.

Mortgage banking net revenue was $65 million in the fourth quarter of 2016, down $1 million from the third quarter of 2016 and down $9 million from the fourth quarter of 2015. Originations of $2.7 billion in the current quarter decreased 5 percent sequentially and increased 54 percent from the same quarter last year. Fourth quarter 2016 originations resulted in $30 million of origination fees and gains on loan sales, compared with $61 million during the previous quarter and $37 million during the fourth quarter of 2015. Net mortgage servicing revenue (which consists of gross mortgage servicing fees, MSR amortization, and net valuation adjustments on MSRs andmark-to-market adjustments on free-standing derivatives used to economically hedge the MSR portfolio) was $35 million this quarter, $5 million in the third quarter of 2016, and $37 million in the fourth quarter of 2015. Gross mortgage servicing fees were $48 million this quarter, $49 million in the third quarter of 2016, and $53 million in the fourth quarter of 2015. MSR amortization was $35 million this quarter, $35 million in the third quarter of 2016, and $29 million in the fourth quarter of 2015. Net servicing asset valuation adjustments resulted in a positive $23 million impact in the fourth quarter of 2016, negative $9 million in the third quarter of 2016, and positive $13 million in the fourth quarter of 2015.

Wealth and asset management revenue of $100 million decreased 1 percent from the third quarter of 2016 and decreased 2 percent from the fourth quarter of 2015. The sequential decrease was primarily driven by lower personal asset management fees. Theyear-over-year decline was primarily driven by lower securities and brokerage fees, partially offset by an increase in institutional trust fees.

Card and processing revenue of $79 million in the fourth quarter of 2016 was flat sequentially and increased 3 percent from the fourth quarter of 2015. The year-over-year increase reflected higher spend volume and actively used cards.

Other noninterest income totaled $137 million in the fourth quarter of 2016, compared with $336 million in the previous quarter and $602 million in the fourth quarter of 2015. As previously described, the results included the adjustments in the table on page 9 with the exception of securities gains / (losses) in all comparable periods. Excluding these items, other noninterest income of $122 million increased approximately $26 million, or 27 percent, from the third quarter of 2016 and was flat from the fourth quarter of 2015. The sequential increase was primarily due to the $33 million annual payment received from Vantiv pursuant to the tax receivable agreement in the fourth quarter of 2016.

Net losses on investment securities were $3 million in the fourth quarter of 2016, compared with $4 million net gains in the previous quarter and a $1 million net gain in the fourth quarter of 2015.

Noninterest expense of $960 million declined $13 million, or 1 percent, compared with the third quarter of 2016 and was flat compared with the fourth quarter of 2015. The sequential decrease primarily reflected lower technology and communications expense, the change in provision for unfunded commitments, and seasonally lower marketing expense. The year-over-year decrease was primarily driven by lower card and processing expense, predominantly due to contract renegotiations as well as lower net occupancy expense, partially offset by increased compensation expense mainly as a result of personnel additions in risk and compliance and information technology.

Tax Rate

The effective tax rate was 22.6 percent in the fourth quarter of 2016 compared with 25.6 percent in the third quarter of 2016 and 30.7 percent in the fourth quarter of 2015. The tax rate in the fourth quarter of 2016 was impacted by a $6 million tax benefit associated with the early adoption of ASU2016-09, “Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting”, using the modified retrospective transition method. Additionally, the early adoption resulted in incremental tax expense of $1 million in the first quarter of 2016 and $5 million in the second quarter of 2016. The tax rate in the third quarter of 2016 was impacted by Vantiv-related gains, which were partially offset by an $8 million tax benefit in connection with certain commercial lease terminations.

Other

On November 21, 2016, Vantiv, Inc. conducted a secondary offering of 4.8 million shares of its Class A common stock on behalf of Fifth Third. Vantiv also concurrently repurchased 850,000 shares of Vantiv Class A common stock from Fifth Third. The 5.65 million shares sold by Fifth Third through these transactions were obtained through the net exercise of the entire remaining warrant position in Vantiv Holding, LLC and the exchange of those Vantiv Holding, LLC units for Class A shares of common stock in Vantiv, Inc. The warrant position gave Fifth Third the right to purchase approximately 7.8 million Class C units at a $15.98 strike price, which was settled through the net issuance of 5.65 million units. For more detail, see the8-K dated November 22, 2016.

Fifth Third Bank owns approximately 35 million units representing a 17.9 percent interest in Vantiv Holding, LLC, convertible into shares of Vantiv, Inc., a publicly traded firm. Based upon Vantiv’s closing price of $59.62 on December 31, 2016, our interest in Vantiv was valued at approximately $2.1 billion. Next month in our10-K, we will update our disclosure of the carrying value of our interest in Vantiv stock, which was $404 million as of September 30, 2016. The difference between the market value and the book value of Fifth Third’s interest in Vantiv’s shares is not recognized in Fifth Third’s equity or capital.

You should not place undue reliance on these statements, as they are subject to risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to the risk factors set forth in our most recent Annual Report on Form10-K as updated from time to time by our Quarterly Reports on Form10-Q. When considering these forward-looking statements, you should keep in mind these risks and uncertainties, as well as any cautionary statements we may make. Moreover, you should treat these statements as speaking only as of the date they are made and based only on information then actually known to us. There is a risk that additional information may become known during the company’s quarterly closing process or as a result of subsequent events that could affect the accuracy of the statements and financial information contained herein.

There are a number of important factors that could cause future results to differ materially from historical performance and these forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such a difference include, but are not limited to: (1) general economic or real estate market conditions, either nationally or in the states in which Fifth Third, one or more acquired entities and/or the combined company do business, weaken or are less favorable than expected; (2) deteriorating credit quality; (3) political developments, wars or other hostilities may disrupt or increase volatility in securities markets or other economic conditions; (4) changes in the interest rate environment reduce interest margins; (5) prepayment speeds, loan origination and sale volumes, charge-offs and loan loss provisions; (6) Fifth Third’s ability to maintain required capital levels and adequate sources of funding and liquidity; (7) maintaining capital requirements and adequate sources of funding and liquidity may limit Fifth Third’s operations and potential growth; (8) changes and trends in capital markets; (9) problems encountered by larger or similar financial institutions may adversely affect the banking industry and/or Fifth Third; (10) competitive pressures among depository institutions increase significantly; (11) effects of critical accounting policies and judgments; (12) changes in accounting policies or procedures as may be required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) or other regulatory agencies; (13) legislative or regulatory changes or actions, or significant litigation, adversely affect Fifth Third, one or more acquired entities and/or the combined company or the businesses in which Fifth Third, one or more acquired entities and/or the combined company are engaged, including the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act; (14) ability to maintain favorable ratings from rating agencies; (15) fluctuation of Fifth Third’s stock price; (16) ability to attract and retain key personnel; (17) ability to receive dividends from its subsidiaries; (18) potentially dilutive effect of future acquisitions on current shareholders’ ownership of Fifth Third; (19) effects of accounting or financial results of one or more acquired entities; (20) difficulties from Fifth Third’s investment in, relationship with, and nature of the operations of Vantiv, LLC; (21) loss of income from any sale or potential sale of businesses; (22) difficulties in separating the operations of any branches or other assets divested; (23) losses or adverse impacts on the carrying values of branches and long-lived assets in connection with their sales or anticipated sales; (24) inability to achieve expected benefits from branch consolidations and planned sales within desired timeframes, if at all; (25) ability to secure confidential information and deliver products and services through the use of computer systems and telecommunications networks; and (26) the impact of reputational risk created by these developments on such matters as business generation and retention, funding and liquidity.

You should refer to our periodic and current reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or “SEC,” for further information on other factors, which could cause actual results to be significantly different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.

In this release, we may sometimes providenon-GAAP financial information. Please note that althoughnon-GAAP financial measures provide useful insight to analysts, investors and regulators, they should not be considered in isolation or relied upon as a substitute for analysis using GAAP measures.

Use ofNon-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to GAAP measures, management considers variousNon-GAAP measures when evaluating the performance of the business, including : “net interest income on an FTE basis,” “net interest margin on an FTE basis,” “adjusted net interest margin,” “efficiency ratio,” “income before income taxes on an FTE basis,”“pre-provision net revenue,” “noninterest income excluding certain items,” “adjusted noninterest income,” “adjusted noninterest income excluding mortgage banking revenue,” “tangible net income available to common shareholders,” “average tangible common equity,” “tangible common equity,” “tangible equity,” “tangible book value per common share,” and “Common Equity Tier 1 under Basel III Final Rule (fullyphased-in),” and certain ratios derived from these measures.

The FTE basis adjusts for thetax-favored status of income from certain loans and securities held by the Bancorp that are not taxable for federal income tax purposes. The Bancorp believes this presentation to be the preferred industry measurement of net interest income as it provides a relevant comparison between taxable andnon-taxable amounts.

Pre-provision net revenue is defined as net interest income plus noninterest income minus noninterest expense. Management believes this measure is important because it provides a ready view ofpre-tax earnings before the impact of provision expense. Noninterest income excluding certain items is provided by management to assist the reader in identifying significant, unusual, or large transactions that impacted noninterest income.

Management considers various measures when evaluating capital utilization and adequacy, including the tangible equity and tangible common equity (including and excluding unrealized gains/losses), in addition to capital ratios defined by the U.S. banking agencies. These calculations are intended to complement the capital ratios defined by the U.S. banking agencies for both absolute and comparative purposes. These ratios are not formally defined by U.S. GAAP or codified in the federal banking regulations and, therefore, are considered to beNon-GAAP financial measures. Management believes that providing the tangible common equity ratio excluding unrealized gains/losses on certain assets and liabilities enables investors and others to assess the Bancorp’s use of equity without the effects of gains or losses some of which are uncertain and providing the tangible common equity ratio including unrealized gains/losses enables investors and others to assess the Bancorp’s use of equity if all unrealized gains or losses were to be monetized.

Management believes tangible book value per share and return on average tangible common equity are important measures for evaluating the performance of a business as it calculates the return available to common shareholders and book value of common stock without the impact of intangible assets and their related amortization. This is useful for evaluating the performance of a business consistently, whether acquired or developed internally, compared to other companies in the industry who present similar measures.

The Bancorp became subject to the Basel III Final Rule on January 1, 2015 which defined various regulatory capital ratios including the Common Equity Tier 1 (“CET1”) ratio. The CET1 capital ratio has transition provisions that will be phased out over time. CET1 capital ratio is presented on a fullyphased-in basis for comparative purposes with other organizations. The Bancorp considers the fullyphased-in CET1 ratio aNon-GAAP measure since it is not the CET1 ratio in effect for the periods presented. Since analysts and the U.S. banking agencies may assess the Bancorp’s capital adequacy using these ratios, management believes they are useful to provide investors the ability to assess its capital adequacy on the same basis.

Please note that althoughNon-GAAP financial measures provide useful insight, they should not be considered in isolation or relied upon as a substitute for analysis using GAAP measures.

Please see page 33 for Reg. G reconciliations of all historicalNon-GAAP measures used in this release to the most directly comparable GAAP measures. Management has provided forward-looking guidance on certainNon-GAAP measures in connection with its earnings presentation in order to facilitate comparability with the Bancorp’s historical performance and financial condition as reflected in theseNon-GAAP measures. Such forward-lookingNon-GAAP measures include return on tangible common equity; net interest margin (FTE); adjusted net interest margin; net interest income (FTE); adjusted noninterest income; adjusted noninterest income excluding mortgage banking net revenue; and noninterest income, excluding certain transactions and adjustments related to the Bancorp’s investment in Vantiv, Visa total return swap, and branch sales, closures and consolidations. Bancorp’s management does not estimate on a forward-looking basis the impact of items similar to those that it has excluded to generate theseNon-GAAP measures on a historical basis because the occurrence and amounts of items such as these are difficult to predict. As a result, the Bancorp has not provided reconciliations of its forward-lookingNon-GAAP measures.
