Ron O'Hanley, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer: "Our second quarter results again reflect the strength of our business model and the dedication and talent of our employees. Amid a very challenging operating environment, we achieved growth in servicing fees year-on-year, strong business wins, and continuing demand for Charles River Development solutions and our State Street Alpha front-to-back asset servicing platform. With volatility still heightened, foreign exchange trading services revenue also increased year-on-year. We provided comprehensive support to clients, employees, and communities while also realizing operational efficiencies and reducing expenses." O'Hanley added: "Although the shape of the economic recovery remains uncertain, we remain focused on being an essential partner to our clients and a high performing organization. Our capital position remains strong, as evidenced by the Federal Reserve's most recent stress test, and we are confident in our ability to continue to operate effectively, help stabilize the financial markets as needed, and support our clients with our balance sheet. As we continue to navigate this extraordinarily challenging time, we are creating a strong foundation for future growth and are well positioned to return capital to shareholders." |

2Q20 HIGHLIGHTS
(all comparisons are to 2Q19, unless otherwise noted)
AUC/A and AUM
•Investment Servicing AUC/A as of quarter-end increased 2% to $33.5 trillion, primarily due to higher period-end market levels and client flows, partially offset by a previously announced client transition.
•Investment Management AUM as of quarter-end increased 5% to $3.1 trillion, primarily due to net inflows from cash and ETFs and higher period-end equity market levels, partially offset by institutional net outflows.
New business
•Investment Servicing mandates announced in 2Q20 totaled $162 billion, with quarter-end servicing assets remaining to be installed in future periods of $1.0 trillion.
•Investment Management net inflows in 2Q20 of $23 billion were driven by cash and ETF inflows, partially offset by institutional outflows.
•Charles River Development (CRD) 2Q20 new bookings of $3 million with strong front-to-back State Street AlphaSM pipeline.
Revenue
•Fee revenue increased 5%, largely due to stronger CRD revenues, including a significant client implementation and several client renewals, elevated FX volume and volatility, and improving servicing fees, partially offset by a decline in securities finance revenue and lower average international equity markets.
•Net interest income (NII) decreased (9)%, primarily due to the impact of lower market rates, partially offset by stronger deposit balances and our participation in the Money Market Mutual Fund Liquidity Facility (MMLF) program.
◦Compared to 1Q20, NII decreased (16)%, largely driven by the impact of lower market rates and the absence of 1Q20 episodic market-related benefits, partially offset by our participation in the MMLF program.
Provision for credit losses
•Total provision for credit losses, calculated under the Current Expected Credit Loss (CECL) accounting standard, increased $47 million primarily due to the impact of COVID-19 driven changes in State Street's economic outlook and ratings migrations as of quarter-end.
Expenses
•Total expenses were down (3)%, reflecting ongoing expense management initiatives. Quarter-end headcount was down (1)% year-on-year. Progress in driving increased productivity and cost efficiency enabled controlled investments to support our operations, client needs, and technology innovation.

Servicing fees were up 2% compared to 2Q19, primarily driven by higher client activity and net new business, partially offset by moderating pricing headwinds. Servicing fees were down (1)% compared to 1Q20, largely due to lower average market levels, partially offset by higher client activity.
Management fees decreased (4)% compared to 2Q19, mainly due to institutional net outflows, partially offset by net inflows to cash and ETFs, particularly in SPDR® Portfolio and Sector ETFs. Management fees decreased (5)% compared to 1Q20, mainly due to lower average equity market levels and institutional net outflows, partially offset by net inflows from cash and ETF.

The effective tax rate in 2Q20 was 13.6% compared to 18.1% in 2Q19 and 18.1% in 1Q20. Compared to both periods, the effective tax rate decreased primarily due to the use of foreign tax credits.

The following table presents preliminary estimates of regulatory capital ratios for State Street Corporation.
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
June 30, 2020 | | 2Q20 | 1Q20 | 2Q19 |
Basel III Standardized Estimated: | | | | |
Common Equity Tier 1 ratio | | 12.3 | % | 10.7 | % | 11.5 | % |
Tier 1 capital ratio | | 14.6 | | 12.9 | | 14.9 | |
Total capital ratio | | 15.7 | | 14.1 | | 15.5 | |
| | | | |
Basel III Advanced Approaches: | | | | |
Common Equity Tier 1 ratio | | 12.7 | | 11.1 | | 12.3 | |
Tier 1 capital ratio | | 15.1 | | 13.4 | | 15.9 | |
Total capital ratio | | 16.0 | | 14.5 | | 16.6 | |
| | | | |
Tier 1 leverage ratio | | 6.1 | | 6.1 | | 7.6 | |
Supplementary leverage ratio(1) | | 8.3 | | 5.4 | | 6.7 | |
| | | | |
Liquidity coverage ratio | | 109 | % | 109 | % | 111 | % |
(1) Under the Section 402 central bank deposits rule changes that came into effect on April 1, 2020, 1Q20 SLR would have been 7.1%.
Standardized capital ratios were binding for the period. Standardized CET1 ratio increased compared to 1Q20, primarily due to higher retained earnings and lower risk-weighted assets as period-end market volatility abated. Tier 1 Leverage ratio was flat quarter-on-quarter while the SLR increased compared to 1Q20, primarily reflecting the impact of regulatory rule changes.
Preliminary average liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) for State Street Corporation of approximately 109%, which is in line with prior periods.

IN THIS NEWS RELEASE:
•Expenses and other measures are sometimes presented excluding notable items. This is a non-GAAP presentation. See the Addendum to this News Release for an explanation and reconciliations of our non-GAAP measures.
•Prior to the adoption of ASU 2016-13, the provision for unfunded commitments was recorded within other expenses in the consolidated statement of income. Upon adoption of ASU 2016-13 in 1Q20, the entire provision for credit losses is recorded within provision for credit losses in the consolidated statement of income. For purposes of this presentation on a like-for-like basis, the provision for credit losses includes $4 million for 2Q19 for unfunded commitments included within other expenses. See Allowance for credit losses within the Addendum to this News Release.
•CRD annual contract value bookings, as presented in this News Release, represent signed annual recurring revenue contract value excluding bookings with affiliates, including SSGA. CRD revenue derived from affiliate agreements is eliminated in consolidation for financial reporting purposes.
•For 2Q20, on a consolidated basis, CRD revenue contributed $138 million, including $134 million in Software and processing fees and $4 million in FX trading services.
•Revenue and pre-tax income reflects the application of ASC 606. Revenue recognition under ASC 606 results in the acceleration of a significant portion of revenues for on-premise software agreements when a client goes live or renews their contract with us. The amount of revenue recognized in any given quarter will be driven in large part by client activity, including agreements that renew or are installed in that quarter.
•New asset servicing mandates, including announced front-to-back investment servicing clients, may be subject to completion of definitive agreements, approval of applicable boards and shareholders and customary regulatory approvals. New asset servicing mandates and servicing assets remaining to be installed in future periods exclude new business which has been contracted, but for which the client has not yet provided permission to publicly disclose and is not yet installed. These excluded assets, which from time to time may be significant, will be included in new asset servicing mandates and reflected in servicing assets remaining to be installed in the period in which the client provides its permission. Servicing mandates and servicing assets remaining to be installed in future periods are presented on a gross basis and therefore also do not include the impact of clients who have notified us during the period of their intent to terminate or reduce their relationship with State Street, which from time to time may be significant.
•New business in assets to be serviced is reflected in our AUC/A after we begin servicing the assets, and new business in assets to be managed is reflected in our AUM after we begin managing the assets. As such, only a portion of any new asset servicing and asset management mandates may be reflected in our AUC/A and AUM as of any particular date specified. Generally, our servicing fee revenues are affected by several factors, including changes in market valuations, client activity and asset flows, net new business and the manner in which we price our services. We provide a range of services to our clients, including core custody services, accounting, reporting and administration and middle office services, and the nature and mix of services provided affects our servicing fees. The basis for fees will differ across regions and clients. The industry in which we operate has historically faced pricing pressure, and our servicing fee revenues are also affected by such pressures today. Consequently, no assumption should be drawn as to future revenue run rate from announced servicing wins or new servicing business yet to be installed, as the amount of revenue associated with AUC/A can vary materially. Management fees generally are affected by our level of AUM and differ based upon the nature, type and investment strategy of the investment product. Management fee revenue is more sensitive to market valuations than servicing fee revenue, as a higher proportion of the underlying services provided, and the associated management fees earned, are dependent on equity and fixed-income security valuations. Additional factors, such as the relative mix of assets managed, may have a significant effect on our management fee revenue. While certain management fees are directly determined by the values of AUM and the investment strategies employed, management fees may reflect other factors, including performance fee arrangements, as well as our relationship pricing for clients.
•State Street’s common stock and other stock dividends, including the declaration, timing and amount, remain subject to consideration and approval by State Street’s Board of Directors at the relevant times.
•Process re-engineering and automation savings, as presented in this News Release, can include high-cost location workforce reductions, reducing manual/bespoke activities, reducing redundant activities, streamlining operational centers and moves to common platforms/retiring legacy applications. Resource discipline benefits, as presented in this News Release, can include reducing senior management headcount, rigorous performance management, vendor management and optimization of real estate.
•Distribution fees from the SPDR® Gold ETF and the SPDR® Long Dollar Gold Trust ETF are recorded in brokerage and other fee revenue and not in management fee revenue.
•Unless otherwise noted, all capital ratios referenced on this News Release and elsewhere in this presentation refer to State Street Corporation, or State Street, and not State Street Bank and Trust Company, or State Street Bank. The lower of capital ratios calculated under the Basel III advanced approaches and under the Basel III standardized approach are applied in the assessment of our capital adequacy for regulatory purposes. Standardized ratios were binding for 2Q20. Refer to the Addendum included with this News Release for additional information.

For purposes of this presentation, provision for credit losses includes $4 million for 2Q19 for unfunded commitments included within other expenses. See Allowance for credit losses within the Addendum to this News Release.
◦The allowance for credit losses on unfunded commitments is included within Other liabilities in the Consolidated Statement of Condition.

This News Release (and the conference call referenced herein) contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of United States securities laws, including statements about our goals and expectations regarding our business, financial and capital condition, results of operations, strategies, the financial and market outlook, dividend and stock purchase programs, governmental and regulatory initiatives and developments, expense reduction programs, new client business, and the business environment. Forward-looking statements are often, but not always, identified by such forward-looking terminology as “outlook,” “guidance,” “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 time subsequent to the time this News Release is first issued.
Important factors that may affect future results and outcomes include, but are not limited to:
•the financial strength of the counterparties with which we or our clients do business and to which we have investment, credit or financial exposures or to which our clients have such exposures as a result of our acting as agent, including as an asset manager or securities lending agent;
•the significant risks and uncertainties for our business, results of operations and financial condition, as well as our regulatory capital and liquidity ratios and other regulatory requirements in the United States and internationally caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, which will depend on several factors, including the scope and duration of the pandemic, its influence on financial markets, the effectiveness of our work from home arrangements and staffing levels in operational facilities, the impact of market participants on which we rely and actions taken by governmental authorities and other third parties in response to the pandemic;
•increases in the volatility of, or declines in the level of, our NII, 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 changes in 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; the liquidity of the assets on our balance sheet and changes or volatility in the sources of such funding, particularly the deposits of our clients; and demands upon our liquidity, including the liquidity demands and requirements of our clients;
•the level, volatility and uncertainty of interest rates; the expected discontinuation of Interbank Offered Rates (IBORs) including LIBOR; the valuation of the U.S. dollar relative to other currencies in which we record revenue or accrue expenses; the performance and volatility of securities, credit, currency and other markets in the U.S. and internationally; and the impact of monetary and fiscal policy in the U.S. and internationally on prevailing rates of interest and currency exchange rates in the markets in which we provide services to our clients;

•our ability to attract deposits and other low-cost, short-term funding; our ability to manage the level and pricing 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 needs, regulatory requirements and risk profile;
•the manner and timing with which the Federal Reserve and other U.S. and non-U.S. regulators implement or reevaluate the regulatory framework applicable to our operations (as well as changes to that framework), including implementation or modification of the Dodd-Frank Act and related stress testing and resolution planning requirements, implementation of international standards applicable to financial institutions, such as those proposed by the Basel Committee and European legislation (such as UCITS V, the Money Market Fund Regulation and MiFID II / MiFIR); among other consequences, these regulatory changes impact the levels of regulatory capital, long-term debt and liquidity we must maintain, acceptable levels of credit exposure to third parties, margin requirements applicable to derivatives, restrictions on banking and financial activities and the manner in which we structure and implement our global operations and servicing relationships. In addition, our regulatory posture and related expenses have been and will continue to be affected by heightened standards and changes in regulatory expectations for global systemically important financial institutions applicable to, among other things, risk management, liquidity and capital planning, resolution planning and compliance programs, as well as changes in governmental enforcement approaches to perceived failures to comply with regulatory or legal obligations;

•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;
•the large institutional clients on which we focus are often able to exert considerable market influence and have diverse investment activities, and this, combined with strong competitive market forces, subjects us to significant pressure to reduce the fees we charge, to potentially significant changes in our AUC/A or our AUM in the event of the acquisition or loss of a client, in whole or in part, and to potentially significant changes in our revenue in the event a client re-balances or changes its investment approach, re-directs assets to lower- or higher-fee asset classes or changes the mix of products or services that it receives from us;

•our ability to integrate Charles River Development's front office software solutions with our middle and back office capabilities to develop a front-to-middle-to-back office platform that is competitive, generates revenues in line with our expectations and meets our clients' requirements;
•our ability to recognize evolving 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;
