STATE STREET REPORTS SECOND-QUARTER 2016 GAAP-BASIS EPS OF $1.47

ON LOWER EXPENSES COMPARED TO THE SECOND QUARTER OF 2015

Second-quarter 2016 operating-basisEPS was $1.46

on lower operating-basis expenses compared to the second quarter of 2015

As previously disclosed, authorized to purchase up to $1.4 billion

of common stock through June 30, 2017 and, subject to board approval, intends to

increase quarterly common stock dividend to $0.38 per share

Boston, MA ...July 27, 2016

In announcing today's financial results, Joseph L. Hooley, State Street's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer said, "We are pleased with our strong second-quarter results, which reflect strong fee revenue growth compared to the first quarter, driven by growth in our core asset servicing and asset management fees. Demand remains robust across our global client base as demonstrated by new servicing commitments of approximately $750 billion, including our appointment by Deka Bank and Allianz Global Investors to provide a range of investment services for $583 billion in assets. Our focus on expenses generated a decrease in expenses compared to the second quarter of 2015. These results also reflect our success to date in implementing our multi-year digital transformation program, State Street Beacon, which is delivering savings and efficiencies, as well as new product innovations for our clients.”

Hooley added, “Although it is still early days following the Brexit vote, we view the diverse and complex $30 trillion European investment market as a significant opportunity that we are well positioned for, given the scope and footprint of our European operations. Therefore, our long-term outlook for our European operations has not been materially impacted by the referendum, other than the impact of anticipated persistence of lower market interest rates.”

Hooley continued, "We completed our acquisition of GE Asset Management. This transaction is a key step in our plan to invest in higher growth and return businesses. It is also an important part of SSGA’s continued evolution as a premier provider of solutions to clients.”

Hooley concluded, "We continue to prioritize returning capital to our shareholders. During the second quarter of 2016, we purchased a total of $390 million of our common stock under our prior common stock purchase program announced in March 2015. Earlier this month, our Board of Directors approved a $1.4 billion common stock purchase program following the Federal Reserve's review of our capital plan under its 2016 Comprehensive Capital Analysis and Review (CCAR) process. Our 2016 capital plan also includes an increase of approximately 12% in our quarterly common stock dividend to $0.38 per share starting in the third quarter of 2016."

2Q16 Highlights:


•	Expense Management: Reflecting a focus on prudent expense management, 2Q16 GAAP-Basis expenses decreased compared to 2Q15.


•	Currency impact: Compared to the second quarter of 2015, the strengthening of the U.S. dollar reduced our fee revenue outside of the U.S. by approximately $10 million, but a similar benefit to expenses offset the currency impact on our bottom line.


•	New business^(a): New asset servicing mandates during the second quarter of 2016 totaled$750 billion. In our asset management business, we experienced net outflows of $35 billion during the second quarter of 2016.

•

Capital^(b): Our common equity tier 1 ratios as of June 30, 2016 were 12.0% and 12.0%, calculated under the advanced approaches and standardized approach, respectively, in conformity with the Basel III final rule. On a fully phased-in basis, our estimated pro forma Basel III common equity tier 1 ratios as of June 30, 2016 were 11.6% and 11.5%, calculated under the advanced approaches and standardized approach, respectively, in conformity with the Basel III final rule.


•	Return of capital to shareholders^(c): We purchased approximately $390 million of our common stock at an average price of $59.66 per share in the second quarter of 2016. In addition, we declared a quarterly common stock dividend of $0.34 per share in the second quarter of 2016.

^(a)New business in assets to be serviced is reflected in our assets under custody and administration after we begin servicing the assets, and new business in assets to be managed is reflected in our assets under management after we begin managing the assets. As such, only a portion of new asset servicing and asset management mandates is reflected in our assets under custody and administration and assets under management, as of June 30, 2016. Distribution fees from the SPDR^®Gold Exchange-Traded Fund, or ETF, are recorded in brokerage and other fee revenue and not in management fee revenue.

^(b)Estimated pro forma fully phased-in Basel III common equity tier 1 ratios calculated under the Basel III advanced approaches and standardized approach (in each case, fully phased in as of January 1, 2019, as per Basel III phase-in requirements for capital) are preliminary estimates. Refer to the “Capital” section of this news release for important information about the Basel III final rule, our calculations of our common equity tier 1 ratios thereunder, factors that could influence State Street's calculations of its common equity tier 1 ratios and other information about our capital ratios. Unless otherwise specified, all capital ratios referenced in this news release refer to State Street Corporation and not State Street Bank and Trust Company. Refer to the addendum included with this news release for a further description of these ratios.

^(c)Stock purchases may be made using various types of mechanisms, including open market purchases or transactions off market, and may be made under Rule 10b5-1 trading programs. The timing of stock purchases, types of transactions and number of shares purchased will depend on several factors, including, market conditions and our capital position, our financial performance and investment opportunities. The common stock purchase program does not have specific price targets and may be suspended at any time. Our common stock and other stock dividends, including the declaration, timing and amount thereof, remain subject to consideration and approval by our Board of Directors at the relevant times.

Second quarter 2016 GAAP-basis results included the following notable items:


•	On April 1, 2016, we sold the WM/Reuters branded foreign exchange benchmark business

to Thomson Reuters resulting in a pre-tax gain of approximately $53 million.


•	A net pre-tax charge of approximately $58 million that reflects an increase in our previously established reserve related to our review of amounts we invoiced clients for certain expenses, including a $43 million reduction to total revenue and $15 million within total expense.

Operating-Basis (Non-GAAP) Financial Measures:

In addition to presenting State Street's financial results in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, management also presents results on a non-GAAP, or operating-basis, as it believes this presentation supports meaningful analysis and comparisons of trends with respect to State Street's normal ongoing business operations from period to period, as well as additional information (such as capital ratios calculated under regulatory standards scheduled to be effective in the future) that management uses in evaluating State Street’s business and activities. Non-GAAP information is not a substitute for, and is not superior to, information presented on a GAAP-basis. Summary results presented on a GAAP-basis, descriptions of our non-GAAP, or operating-basis, financial measures, and reconciliations of operating-basis information to GAAP-basis information are provided in the addendum included with this news release.

The rate of decline in operating-basis expenses exceeded the rate of decline in operating-basis fee revenues during the second quarter of 2016 relative to the second quarter of 2015, representing positive fee operating leverage of approximately 80 basis points.

We currently expect State Street Beacon, our multi-year transformation program^(a) to deliver at least $140 million in estimated annual pre-tax fiscal savings in 2016 including targeted staff reductions announced in October 2015.

^(a)Estimated pre-tax expense savings relate only to State Street Beacon, our multi-year transformation program, and are based on projected improvement from our full-year 2015 operating-basis expenses, all else equal. The full effect of the savings generated each year will be felt the following year. Actual expenses may increase or decrease in the future due to other factors.

⁽²⁾ Operating-basis net interest revenue excludes discount accretion on former conduit securities and is presented on a fully taxable-equivalent basis. The Company expects to record aggregate pre-tax conduit-related accretion of approximately $204 million in interest revenue through the remaining lives of the former conduit securities. This expectation is based on numerous assumptions, including holding the securities to maturity, anticipated prepayment speeds and credit quality.

The following highlights primary drivers of changes in our revenue for the noted periods, indicating (where relevant) differences between our GAAP-basis and operating-basis results.

Servicing fees increased from the first quarter of 2016, primarily due to net new business and higher global equity markets. Compared to the second quarter of 2015, servicing fees decreased, primarily due to lower global equity markets. On a GAAP-basis, the second quarter of 2016 reflects a $48 million reduction in servicing fees related to our previously disclosed expense billing matter.

Management fees increased from the first quarter of 2016 primarily due to higher global equity markets and favorable net new business mix. Compared to the second quarter of 2015 management fees decreased, primarily due to lower international equity markets. On a GAAP-basis, the second quarter of 2016 reflects an increase in management fees of $5 million related to our previously disclosed expense billing matter.

Foreign exchange trading revenue increased slightly from the first quarter of 2016. Compared to the second quarter of 2015, foreign exchange trading revenue decreased, primarily due to lower client-related volumes.

Brokerage and other fees decreased from the first quarter of 2016, primarily due to lower revenue related to the exit of the WM/Reuters branded foreign exchange benchmark business. Compared to the second quarter of 2015, brokerage and other fees decreased, primarily due to lower transition management revenue, partially offset by higher fees associated with the GLD ETF.

Securities finance revenue increased from the first quarter of 2016, primarily due to seasonality. Compared to the second quarter of 2015, securities finance revenue increased slightly.

Processing fees and other revenue increased compared to the first quarter of 2016, primarily due to higher equity earnings from joint ventures and favorable valuation adjustments. Compared to the second quarter of 2015, processing fees and other revenue increased, primarily due to favorable valuation adjustments and higher revenue associated with bank owned life insurance. On a GAAP-basis, the increase for both periods also reflects the gain on the sale of the WM/Reuters branded foreign exchange benchmark business to Thomson Reuters in the second quarter of 2016.

Net interest revenue increased from the first quarter of 2016, primarily due to disciplined liability pricing, higher interest earning assets, and income associated with a small number of discrete security prepayments. Compared to the second quarter of 2015, net interest revenue decreased, primarily due to our success in reducing the size of the balance sheet in 2015, partially offset by the impact of higher short-term interest rates and disciplined liability pricing. On a GAAP-basis, the decrease compared to the second quarter of 2015 also is partially a result of lower discount accretion associated with the former conduit securities. Net interest margin, calculated based on operating-basis net interest revenue, changed to 111 basis points in the second quarter of 2016 from 112 and 96 basis points in the first quarter of 2016 and the second quarter of 2015, respectively.

The following highlights primary drivers of changes in our expenses for the noted periods, indicating (where relevant) differences between our GAAP-basis and operating-basis results.

Compensation and employee benefits expenses decreased from the first quarter of 2016, due to costs recorded in the first quarter of 2016 associated with the seasonal deferred incentive compensation expense for retirement eligible employees and payroll taxes, partially offset by an annual merit increase. Compared to the second quarter of 2015, compensation and employee benefits expenses increased, primarily due to increased costs to support regulatory initiatives and new business, mostly offset by State Street Beacon savings.

Information systems and communications expenses decreased from the first quarter of 2016. Compared to the second quarter of 2015, information systems and communications increased, primarily due to investments associated with supporting business, including project Beacon, and regulatory initiatives.

Other expenses increased from the first quarter of 2016 on a GAAP-basis, primarily due to interest expense associated with the expense billing matter. Compared to the second quarter of 2015, other expenses decreased on a GAAP-basis, primarily due to a legal provision recorded in the second quarter of 2015, lower professional services, securities processing costs, and travel expenses.

On an operating-basis, other expenses were flat compared to the first quarter of 2016. Compared to the second quarter of 2015, other expenses decreased, primarily due to lower professional services, securities processing costs, and travel expenses.

Income Taxes for our second quarter of 2016 GAAP-basis effective tax rate was 12.9% compared to 14.4% in the first quarter of 2016 and 11.3% in the second quarter of 2015. Our operating-basis effective tax rates for the second quarter of 2016 was 27.0% compared to 29.1% in the first quarter of 2016 and 29.6% in the second quarter of 2015.

Capital

The following table presents our regulatory capital ratios as of June 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016.

Forward-Looking Statements

This news release contains forward-looking statements as defined by United States securities laws, including statements relating to our goals and expectations regarding our business, financial and capital condition, results of operations, investment portfolio performance and strategies, the financial and market outlook, dividend and stock purchase programs, governmental and regulatory initiatives and developments, and the business environment. Forward-looking statements are often, but not always, identified by such forward-looking terminology as “outlook,” “expect,” "priority," “objective,” “intend,” “plan,” “forecast,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “seek,” “may,”

“will,” “trend,” “target,” “strategy” and “goal,” or similar statements or variations of such terms. These statements are not guarantees of future performance, are inherently uncertain, are based on current assumptions that are difficult to predict and involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed in those statements, and those statements should not be relied upon as representing our expectations or beliefs as of any date subsequent to July 27, 2016.

Important factors that may affect future results and outcomes include, but are not limited to:

•

the structure and details of the U.K.'s exit from the European Union, or "Brexit", following the recent referendum by British voters are not certain, remain subject to negotiations between the U.K. and the European Union and will be determined over the coming years; such structure and details are likely to have significant effects on financial markets and business activities, and the regulatory environment, particularly in the U.K and Europe, some or all of which effects could have a material effect on our or our clients or counterparties businesses, operations, investment activities or financial results.


•	the financial strength and continuing viability of the counterparties with which we or our clients do business and to which we have investment, credit or financial exposure, including, for example, the direct and indirect effects on counterparties of the sovereign-debt risks in the U.S., Europe and other regions;


•	increases in the volatility of, or declines in the level of, our net interest revenue, changes in the composition or valuation of the assets recorded in our consolidated statement of condition (and our ability to measure the fair value of investment securities) and the possibility that we may change the manner in which we fund those assets;


•	the liquidity of the U.S. and international securities markets, particularly the markets for fixed-income securities and inter-bank credits, and the liquidity requirements of our clients;


•	the level and volatility of interest rates, the valuation of the U.S. dollar relative to other currencies in which we record revenue or accrue expenses and the performance and volatility of securities, credit, currency and other markets in the U.S. and internationally;


•	the credit quality, credit-agency ratings and fair values of the securities in our investment securities portfolio, a deterioration or downgrade of which could lead to other-than-temporary impairment of the respective securities and the recognition of an impairment loss in our consolidated statement of income;


•	our ability to attract deposits and other low-cost, short-term funding, our ability to manage levels of such deposits and the relative portion of our deposits that are determined to be operational under regulatory guidelines and our ability to deploy deposits in a profitable manner consistent with our liquidity requirements and risk profile;

•

the manner and timing with which the Federal Reserve and other U.S. and foreign regulators implement changes to the regulatory framework applicable to our operations, including implementation of the Dodd-Frank Act, the Basel III final rule and European legislation (such as the Alternative Investment Fund Managers Directive, Undertakings for Collective Investment in Transferable Securities Directives and Markets in Financial Instruments Directive II); among other consequences, these regulatory changes impact the levels of regulatory capital we must maintain, acceptable levels of credit exposure to third parties, margin requirements applicable to derivatives, and restrictions on banking and financial activities. In addition, our regulatory posture and related expenses have been and will continue to be affected by changes in regulatory expectations for global systemically important financial institutions applicable to, among other things, risk management, liquidity

and capital planning and compliance programs, and changes in governmental enforcement approaches to perceived failures to comply with regulatory or legal obligations;

•

we may not successfully implement our plans to address the deficiencies jointly identified by the Federal Reserve and the FDIC in April 2016 with respect to our 2015 resolution plan, or those plans may not be considered to be sufficient by the Federal Reserve and the FDIC, due to a number of factors, including, but not limited to challenges we may experience in interpreting and addressing regulatory expectations, failure to implement remediation in a timely manner, the complexities of development of a comprehensive plan to resolve a global custodial bank and related costs and dependencies. If we fail to meet regulatory expectations to the satisfaction of the Federal Reserve and the FDIC in our resolution plan submission due on October 1, 2016 or in any future submission, we could be subject to more stringent capital, leverage or liquidity requirements, or restrictions on our growth, activities or operations;

•

adverse changes in the regulatory ratios that we are required or will be required to meet, whether arising under the Dodd-Frank Act or the Basel III final rule, or due to changes in regulatory positions, practices or regulations in jurisdictions in which we engage in banking activities, including changes in internal or external data, formulae, models, assumptions or other advanced systems used in the calculation of our capital ratios that cause changes in those ratios as they are measured from period to period;

•

increasing requirements to obtain the prior approval of the Federal Reserve or our other U.S. and non-U.S. regulators for the use, allocation or distribution of our capital or other specific capital actions or programs, including acquisitions, dividends and stock purchases, without which our growth plans, distributions to shareholders, share repurchase programs or other capital initiatives may be restricted;

•

changes in law or regulation, or the enforcement of law or regulation, that may adversely affect our business activities or those of our clients or our counterparties, and the products or services that we sell, including additional or increased taxes or assessments thereon, capital adequacy requirements, margin requirements and changes that expose us to risks related to the adequacy of our controls or compliance programs;


•	financial market disruptions or economic recession, whether in the U.S., Europe, Asia or other regions;

•

our ability to develop and execute State Street Beacon, our multi-year transformation program to create cost efficiencies and to fully digitize our business to support the development of new solutions and capabilities for our clients, any failure of which, in whole or in part, may among other things, reduce our competitive position, diminish the cost-effectiveness of our systems and processes or provide an insufficient return on our associated investment;


•	our ability to promote a strong culture of risk management, operating controls, compliance oversight and governance that meet our expectations and those of our clients and our regulators;


•	the results of our review of our billing practices, including additional amounts we may be required to reimburse clients, as well as potential consequences of such review, including damage to our client relationships and adverse actions by governmental authorities;


•	the results of, and costs associated with, governmental or regulatory inquiries and investigations, litigation and similar claims, disputes, or civil or criminal proceedings;


•	the potential for losses arising from our investments in sponsored investment funds;


•	the possibility that our clients will incur substantial losses in investment pools for which we act as agent, and the possibility of significant reductions in the liquidity or valuation of assets underlying those pools;


•	our ability to anticipate and manage the level and timing of redemptions and withdrawals from our collateral pools and other collective investment products;


•	the credit agency ratings of our debt and depositary obligations and investor and client perceptions of our financial strength;


•	adverse publicity, whether specific to State Street or regarding other industry participants or industry-wide factors, or other reputational harm;


•	our ability to control operational risks, data security breach risks and outsourcing risks, our ability to protect our intellectual property rights, the possibility of errors in the quantitative models we use to manage our business and the possibility that our controls will prove insufficient, fail or be circumvented;

•

our ability to expand our use of technology to enhance the efficiency, accuracy and reliability of our operations and our dependencies on information technology and our ability to control related risks, including cyber-crime and other threats to our information technology infrastructure and systems and their effective operation both independently and with external systems, and complexities and costs of protecting the security of our systems and data;


•	our ability to grow revenue, manage expenses, attract and retain highly skilled people and raise the capital necessary to achieve our business goals and comply with regulatory requirements and expectations;


•	changes or potential changes to the competitive environment, including changes due to regulatory and technological changes, the effects of industry consolidation and perceptions of State Street as a suitable service provider or counterparty;


•	changes or potential changes in the amount of compensation we receive from clients for our services, and the mix of services provided by us that clients choose;


•	our ability to complete acquisitions, joint ventures and divestitures, including the ability to obtain regulatory approvals, the ability to arrange financing as required and the ability to satisfy closing conditions;

•

the risks that our acquired businesses and joint ventures will not achieve their anticipated financial and operational benefits or will not be integrated successfully, or that the integration will take longer than anticipated, that expected synergies will not be achieved or unexpected negative synergies or liabilities will be experienced, that client and deposit retention goals will not be met, that other regulatory or operational challenges will be experienced, and that disruptions from the transaction will harm our relationships with our clients, our employees or regulators;


•	our ability to recognize emerging needs of our clients and to develop products that are responsive to such trends and profitable to us, the performance of and demand for the products and services we offer, and the potential for new products and services to impose additional costs on us and expose us to increased operational risk;


•	changes in accounting standards and practices; and


•	changes in tax legislation and in the interpretation of existing tax laws by U.S. and non-U.S. tax authorities that affect the amount of taxes due.

Other important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by any forward-looking statements are set forth in our 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K and our subsequent SEC filings.
