Capital One Reports Record Earnings For 2000
Falls Church, Va. (January 16, 2001) -- Capital One Financial Corporation (NYSE:
COF) today announced 30 percent earnings per share growth for the year 2000.
Earnings were $469.6 million, or $2.24 per share, in 2000 compared with earnings
of $363.1 million, or $1.72 per share, in 1999. For the fourth quarter of 2000,
earnings were $128.3 million, or $.61 per share, versus earnings of $97.9
million, or $.47 per share for the comparable period in the prior year.
"Capital One has posted a strong finish for 2000, delivering on our stated
goal of 30 percent earnings per share growth," said Richard D. Fairbank, Capital
One's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "We have targeted another year of 30
percent earnings growth and at least 20 percent return on equity in 2001."
During the fourth quarter, Capital One added 4.3 million net new accounts,
bringing total accounts to 33.8 million. Managed consumer loan balances
increased by a record $5.4 billion during the quarter to $29.5 billion. Total
managed revenue increased during the quarter at a 40 percent annualized rate,
compared with 40 percent in the third quarter of 2000 and 20 percent in the
fourth quarter of 1999. The managed net charge-off ratio was 3.98 percent for
the three months ended December 31, 2000. In addition, the Company added $70
million to the allowance for loan losses during the fourth quarter, increasing
the allowance to $527 million, or 3.49 percent of reported consumer loans, as of
December 31, 2000.
"Strong financial performance and robust growth in the fourth quarter have
been hallmarks of Capital One," said Nigel W. Morris, Capital One's President
and Chief Operating Officer. "We are firing on all cylinders, with loan growth
in all segments, 40 percent revenue growth, and more than four million net new
customers added".

Cost per account declined in the fourth quarter to $78 from $83 in the
third quarter of 2000 and $86 in the fourth quarter of 1999. Contributing to
the strong account and managed loan growth during the quarter was an increase in
marketing expense to a record $259 million compared to $233 million in the third
quarter of 2000 and $202 million in the comparable period of the prior year.
Online account originations and online account servicing for the full year
surpassed the company's previously stated goals of one million originations and
two million accounts serviced online.
The company cautioned that its current expectations for 2001 earnings and
return on equity are forward-looking statements and actual results could differ
materially from current expectations due to a number of factors, including:
competition in the credit card industry; the actual account and balance growth
achieved by the company; the company's ability to access the capital markets at
attractive rates and terms to fund its operations and future growth; and general
economic conditions affecting consumer income and spending, which may affect
consumer bankruptcies, defaults and charge-offs. A discussion of these and
other factors can be found in Capital One's annual and other reports filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission, including, but not limited to, Capital
One's report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999.
