MANAGEMENT'S ANALYSIS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and other portions of this Financial Supplement
contain various forward-looking statements. Please refer to our 1999 Second
Quarter Report on Form 10-Q for a discussion of various factors that could cause
our actual results to differ materially from those expressed in such
forward-looking statements.
EARNINGS HIGHLIGHTS
First Union's operating earnings in the first six months of 1999 were
$1.8 billion, or $1.90 per share, compared with $1.7 billion in the first six
months of 1998, or $1.75 per share. Operating earnings exclude merger-related
and restructuring charges. Excluding previously announced nonrecurring gains of
20 cents per share related to the sale of First Union's interest in Electronic
Payment Services, Inc., and the sale of net assets associated with our factoring
business, operating earnings in the first six months of 1999 were $1.70 per
share. After merger-related and restructuring charges, net income in the first
six months of 1999 was $1.6 billion, or $1.63 per share, compared with $1.0
billion, or $1.07 per share, in the first six months of 1998.
Second quarter 1999 operating earnings were $873 million compared with
operating earnings of $883 million in the second quarter of 1998. Operating
earnings per share were 90 cents in the second quarter of 1999, including an 8
cents per share after-tax gain on the sale of our factoring business. Operating
earnings per share of 90 cents compare with 92 cents in the second quarter of
1998. The second quarter of 1999 included no merger-related and restructuring
charges. These charges in the second quarter of 1998 amounted to $634 million
after-tax.
Operating earnings in the first half of 1999 represent a return on
average stockholders' equity of 22.75 percent and a return on average assets of
1.65 percent.
Key factors in the first half of 1999 compared with the first half of
1998 include:
o A 28 percent increase in fee and other income to $3.6 billion,
excluding portfolio securities transactions. Growth was led by strong
results in Capital Markets and Capital Management businesses. Capital
Markets fee and other income was $846 million in the first half of 1999
compared with $662 million in the first half of 1998. The increase was
led primarily by strong results in investment banking and trading.
Capital Management fee and other income increased to $1.0 billion in
the first half of 1999 from $877 million in the first half of 1998, led
by retail brokerage services, trust and CAP account sales. The Capital
Management Group had $164 billion in assets under management, including
$75 billion in First Union-advised mutual funds, at June 30, 1999.
Total assets under management at June 30, 1998, were $139 billion,
including $64 billion in mutual funds.
o A modest increase in average loan balances and in noninterest bearing
deposit balances. Period-end loan balances declined modestly, largely
reflecting sales and securitization activity. In the second quarter of
1999, we securitized and retained as securities available for sale $6.7
billion in prime equity lines to facilitate funding flexibility.
o Expenses remained on target to limit full year 1999 expense growth to
our goal of approximately 3 percent excluding merger-related and
restructuring charges and the impact of the EVEREN Capital Corporation
acquisition. First half 1999 noninterest expense was $4.56 billion
compared with $4.65 billion in the first half of 1998, reflecting the
impact of staff reductions that were part of a restructuring plan
announced in March 1999. Excluding merger-related and restructuring
charges, first half 1999 noninterest expense was $4.2 billion, up 14
percent from $3.7 billion in the first half of 1998. The first half of
1999 included expenses related to The Money Store Inc., which we
acquired on June 30, 1998, in a purchase accounting acquisition.
Accordingly, noninterest expense related to The Money Store is
reflected in our results beginning June 30, 1998. Adjusting for this
acquisition, expense growth in the first half of 1999 was 5 percent.
o Continued strength in credit quality. Nonperforming assets as a
percentage of net loans and foreclosed properties were 0.70 percent at
June 30, 1999, compared with 0.66 percent at June 30, 1998. Annualized
net charge-offs were 0.51 percent of average net loans, compared with
0.43 percent in the first six months of 1998.
In addition to The Money Store, the first six months of 1999 also
reflected the full impact of the purchase accounting acquisition of Bowles
Hollowell Conner & Co., also completed in the second quarter of 1998.

OUTLOOK
For several years we have stated our goal of creating a new kind of
financial services company - one that operates about 50 percent like a
traditional bank and 50 percent like a securities business. Since 1994 we have
focused our efforts on building the knowledge-based businesses of capital
markets and capital management, which we will begin to view as one focused
business called First Union Securities in the fourth quarter of 1999. Since 1996
we have been transforming the processes and delivery channels in our General
Bank (consisting primarily of consumer and commercial products) through
commercial reengineering, implementation of our Future Bank initiative and the
expansion of e-commerce offerings. We believe a new and flexible business model
of this type is required to meet the changing demands of both individual and
corporate customers. Our General Bank currently provides more than half of our
profitability, although it is a slower-growth business than our securities
business.
While we are in the transition phase to this new business model, we
expect to make substantial continued investments in our securities business, in
our electronic delivery platform of the Future Bank, in the Internet and in
First Union Direct call centers, and in other areas. We believe these
investments are essential to our long-term growth and to our ability to attract,
serve and retain our customers.
The transformation to the new business model has resulted in significant
changes to allow our customers many choices in how and where they do business
with us. In some cases, this aggressive effort has resulted in lapses in
customer service as we have simultaneously transformed our branch delivery
system to the new business model while undertaking the integration of
CoreStates Financial Corp, a pooling of interests merger, which was consummated
in April 1998. We believe that through extensive employee training efforts, the
addition of staff at high volume locations and specific plans to maintain higher
sales and service staffing levels, we have taken the appropriate actions to
achieve improved financial performance in our retail branch network. This
outlook is based on encouraging trends in the performance measurements we use
for evaluating service quality, new product sales volumes and the economic
contribution of new product sales. While the transformation to the new business
model poses some short-term risk to earnings, we believe that the failure to
replace the traditional bank model poses greater long-term risks.
The high-growth securities businesses in which we have invested have
resulted in a growing proportion of our revenue coming from fee-producing
businesses. In the first six months of 1999, 50 percent of our net
tax-equivalent revenue came from fee and other income, excluding portfolio
securities transactions, compared with 43 percent in the first six months of
1998.
At the same time that we are investing to increase revenues over the long
term, we are implementing a more disciplined approach to expense management by
reducing our cost structure and by streamlining operations. We announced a
restructuring plan in March 1999 designed to produce pre-tax cost savings of
approximately $400 million for 1999. Operating expenses (excluding
merger-related and restructuring charges, the anticipated effect of EVEREN and
adjusting for The Money Store) for the year are estimated to be approximately
$8.2 billion, or 3 percent higher than in 1998.
Following a strategic review and analysis, we announced in May 1999 that
we estimate 1999 earnings will be in the range of $3.3 billion to $3.4 billion,
or $3.40 to $3.50 per share. This outlook excludes nonrecurring gains and
merger-related and restructuring charges. The earnings outlook was revised from
an earlier goal of approximately $4.00 per share largely because of the impact
of the significant transformation under way in our business model. In addition,
in 1998, we had several substantial noncore earnings items that amounted to
approximately 50 cents more per share than is anticipated for 1999.
The IMPACT OF YEAR 2000 section provides information about First Union's
initiatives related to Year 2000 readiness and to expenses associated with these
initiatives. The ACCOUNTING AND REGULATORY MATTERS section provides more
information about legislative, accounting and regulatory matters that have
recently been adopted or proposed.
MERGER AND CONSOLIDATION ACTIVITY
In April 1999, we signed a definitive agreement to acquire EVEREN Capital
Corporation, a full-service brokerage and asset management firm based in
Chicago, Illinois. This transaction will provide First Union with a nationwide
brokerage platform and augment our equity research, trading, underwriting and
distribution capabilities. The acquisition, which will be accounted for as a
purchase, is an all-stock transaction providing for each share of EVEREN common
stock to be exchanged for approximately $31.00 in First Union common stock,
based on the
3
average price of First Union common stock for a ten-day period prior to
consummation, which values the acquisition for accounting purposes at $1.1
billion. This excludes the present value of an employee retention pool of
approximately $87 million, in restricted shares of First Union common stock,
which will be issued over a three-year period to certain EVEREN employees,
primarily brokers. We are currently evaluating various strategies for the
integration of EVEREN, and those decisions will affect the amount of goodwill
recorded at consummation as well as the amount of merger and integration charges
to be incurred. We estimate that we will incur approximately $60 million in
merger and integration charges, principally in the last two quarters of 1999,
consisting primarily of expenses related to systems conversions and integration.
As of June 30, 1999, we had repurchased in the open market 11 million of the
shares to be issued in this transaction and expect to repurchase the remaining
13 million. This repurchase is in addition to our previously announced 50
million share repurchase programs. The LIQUIDITY AND FUNDING
SOURCES-STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY section provides further information related to our
buyback programs. The transaction is expected to close at the end of the third
quarter or at the beginning of the fourth quarter of 1999, subject to EVEREN
stockholder and regulatory approvals and other conditions of closing.
We continue to evaluate acquisition opportunities that we believe would
provide access to customers and markets that complement our long-term goals.
Acquisition opportunities are evaluated as a part of our ongoing capital
allocation decision-making process. Decisions to pursue acquisitions will be
measured in conjunction with financial performance guidelines adopted in 1997
and other financial and strategic objectives. Acquisition discussions and in
some cases negotiations may take place from time to time, and future
acquisitions involving cash, debt or equity securities may be expected.
BUSINESS SEGMENTS
BUSINESS FOCUS
First Union's operations are divided into five business segments
encompassing more than 50 distinct product and service units. These segments
include Capital Markets Products, Capital Management Products, Consumer
Products, Commercial Products and Treasury/Nonbank. Additional information can
be found in Table 3.
We have developed an internal performance reporting model to measure the
results of operations of these five business segments. Because of the complexity
of the corporation, we have used various estimates and allocation methodologies
in the preparation of the Business Segments financial information. We
continually evaluate our allocation methodologies as we refine our approach to
measuring segment results of operations. In the first six months of 1999, we
made significant refinements to certain allocation methodologies and the prior
period information has been restated to reflect these refinements. These
refinements include the allocation of certain nonearning assets and liabilities
and the related funding cost from Treasury/Nonbank to the other business
segments; elimination of the tax-equivalization of net interest income such that
the tax effect is now included in income tax expense; and adjustments to certain
capital attribution formulas. Generally, these methodology refinements reduced
net income in Capital Markets Products, Capital Management Products, Consumer
Products and Commercial Products.
As mentioned in the OUTLOOK section, we will begin to view the activities
of our Capital Markets and Capital Management businesses as one focused business
called First Union Securities, but we will also continue to report the
activities as separate business segments. This transformation is a key
ingredient of our new business model that we are in the process of developing as
the future design of our business in order to better serve our existing and
future customers.
CAPITAL MARKETS PRODUCTS
Our Capital Markets Group provides corporate and institutional clients
with a complete selection of investment banking products and services. These
products and services are fully integrated with our wholesale delivery strategy,
and they are a natural extension of our Commercial Products strategy. Our large
banking franchise provides a strong platform for the delivery of Capital Markets
products and services to meet client needs.
Our relationship coverage begins in our East Coast banking markets, and
it extends nationwide through specialized industry expertise in such areas as
communications and technology; health care; insurance; utilities; textiles and
home furnishings; retail and specialty finance; oil and gas; financial
institutions; real estate; and other specializations. In addition, our
International unit continues to develop and utilize strong correspondent banking
4
relationships overseas. The primary focus of the International unit is to meet
the trade finance and foreign exchange needs of our domestic customers and
correspondent financial institutions around the world, and to provide commercial
banking and capital markets products to financial institutions and corporate
clients overseas.
Capital Markets has five business units: (1) Investment Banking, which
includes loan syndication, investment grade and high yield debt, equity sales,
research and underwriting, fixed income sales and trading, municipal sales
and trading and underwriting, fixed income and equity derivatives, foreign
exchange, merger and acquisition advisory services and Capital Partners (our
merchant banking unit); (2) Real Estate Finance, primarily commercial real
estate finance, structured product servicing and affordable housing;
(3) Traditional Banking, which encompasses corporate lending activities;
(4) Commercial Leasing and Rail, which includes operating, finance and leveraged
leasing, and the nation's second largest general purpose railcar leasing
operation; and (5) International.
Capital Markets' net income was $510 million in the first six months of
1999 compared with $379 million in the first six months of 1998, and $240
million in the second quarter of 1999 compared with $197 million in the second
quarter of 1998. Net interest income increased 33 percent to $663 million in the
first six months of 1999, with average loans up 15 percent. Fee and other income
increased 13 percent to $631 million, excluding trading account profits, in the
first six months of 1999 compared with the first six months of 1998. This
increase reflected strength in investment banking, which includes M&A advisory
fees, venture capital, and third party asset securitizations. Fee and other
income declined in the second quarter of 1999 compared with the first quarter of
1999 as a result of lower venture capital gains and trading account profits. For
the six-month comparison, trading account profits increased from $104 million in
1998 to $215 million in 1999, due to strong results in fixed income and equity
derivatives, foreign exchange and commercial mortgage-backed securities. Trading
activities are undertaken primarily to satisfy the investment and risk
management needs of our customers and secondarily to enhance our earnings
through profitable trading for the corporation's own account. Market making and
position taking activities across a wide array of financial instruments add to
our ability to optimally serve our customers. Trading account assets were $12.2
billion at June 30, 1999, compared with $9.8 billion at December 31, 1998.
Noninterest expense was $661 million in the first six months of 1999 compared
with $566 million in the first six months of 1998 and $311 million in the second
quarter of 1999, essentially unchanged compared with the second quarter of 1998.
The increase was attributable to higher levels of incentives in the first
quarter of 1999.
Average net loans were $36 billion in the first six months of 1999 and
$31 billion in the first six months of 1998. Loan growth between the two periods
was generated primarily in the Specialized Industries unit, and it was related
to new relationships and to the realignment of certain corporate customer
relationships from the Commercial Products segment.
Capital Markets will continue to expand its relationship banking efforts,
including increased industry segment coverage and an expanded international
presence. Because our international strategy is to support the trade finance
needs of our domestic customers and correspondent financial institutions around
the world rather than to lend to sovereign nations or foreign companies, we have
limited credit exposure to emerging markets. Our exposure to emerging markets at
June 30, 1999, had an average maturity of approximately 100 days and amounted to
1.2 percent of total assets.
CAPITAL MANAGEMENT PRODUCTS
We have created a growing asset management business within our Capital
Management Group, with products that provide the link between traditional
banking and investing for retail and institutional customers. We had $164
billion in assets under management and $661 billion in assets under care at June
30, 1999. Assets under management include First Union-advised mutual funds of
$75 billion, with the remaining $89 billion in assets related to trust and
institutional accounts. These products and services are distributed through
three key channels: First Union Brokerage Services, the Wheat First Union retail
brokerage division of First Union Capital Markets Corp. and our retail
full-service financial centers throughout our 12-state and Washington, D.C.,
marketplace.
The Capital Management Group produced net income of $242 million in the
first six months of 1999 compared with $196 million in the first six months of
1998, and $125 million in the second quarter of 1999 compared with $104 million
in the second quarter of 1998. Net interest income amounted to $241 million in
the first six months of 1999 compared with $203 million in the first six months
of 1998. Capital Management businesses and products primarily generate fee
income. Fee and other income in the first six months of 1999 increased 16
percent to $1.0 billion from $877 million in the first six months of 1998,
driven by retail brokerage services, trust
5
and CAP account sales. Noninterest expense in the first six months of 1999 was
$872 million compared with $759 million in the first six months of 1998, and
$439 million in the second quarter of 1999 compared with $380 million in the
second quarter of 1998. Increases in both periods reflected higher personnel
costs, primarily incentives associated with revenue growth.
First Union's trust business encompasses personal trust, corporate trust
and benefit services/institutional trust services. Personal trust fees
contributed more than half of trust fees in the first half of 1999 and the first
half of 1998, and increased 10 percent year over year. New business sales set a
quarterly record of $21 million in the second quarter of 1999, up 59 percent
from the second quarter of 1998.
Assets in the First Union-advised Evergreen/Mentor mutual funds reached a
record at June 30, 1999, of $75 billion compared with $64 billion at June 30,
1998. These funds are distributed through third party broker/dealers and through
internal bank financial centers, retail brokerage offices and trust services.
The Private Client Banking Group provides high net worth retail clients
with a single point of access to First Union's investment products, mortgages,
personal loans, trusts, financial planning, brokerage services and other
products and services. In the first six months of 1999, the Private Client
Banking Group had $3.6 billion of average net loans compared with $3.4 billion
in the first six months of 1998, and $3.1 billion of average deposits in the
first six months of 1999 compared with $2.6 billion in the first six months of
1998.
The CAP Account is an asset management product that enables our customers
to manage their securities trading and banking activities in a single,
consolidated account. Income related to the CAP Account is therefore reflected
in several of the Capital Management Group's lines of business, including Mutual
Funds and Retail Brokerage Services. CAP Account amounts in Table 3 reflect CAP
Account fees and the spread attributed to the on-balance sheet deposits. CAP
Account assets increased to $48 billion by June 30, 1999, compared with $38
billion at year-end 1998, and the number of CAP accounts hit a milestone with
more than 500,000. We are seeing increased investment activity through this
product, and as an example, the number of brokerage trades increased 87 percent
in the first six months of 1999 compared with the first six months of 1998.
In addition, Retail Brokerage Services includes insurance products sold
through the First Union Insurance Group. Insurance annuity sales increased 56
percent from the first six months of 1998.
We anticipate increased growth in all of the Capital Management business
lines as we introduce products and services throughout our multistate network
and as we enhance relationships with new and existing customers.
CONSUMER PRODUCTS
The Consumer Products segment encompasses our primary deposit-taking
operation, providing an attractive source of funding for secured and unsecured
consumer loans, first and second residential mortgages, installment loans,
credit cards, direct auto loans and leases, and student loans. First Union's
mortgage origination and servicing and home equity offices across the nation are
included in Consumer Products through our operating subsidiaries, First Union
Mortgage Corporation (FUMC), First Union Home Equity Bank (FUHEB) and The Money
Store, Inc. Retail Branch Products encompasses residential first mortgage
lending, auto finance, the ATM group, electronic and traditional consumer loan
and deposit products. Card Products reflects the $2.1 billion owned credit card
portfolio; the credit card fee and other income also reflects fee income
generated from securitized credit card receivables. In addition, our traditional
deposit and lending products are sold alongside nontraditional financial
products, making our retail banking branches major distribution points for
mutual funds, insurance and small business loans. The sales results pertaining
to nontraditional products are found in either our Capital Management Products
segment or our Commercial Products segment data. State-of-the-art technology,
including centralized customer information centers, electronic and Internet
banking capabilities, supports this approach.
Consumer Products generated $523 million in net income in the first six
months of 1999 compared with $516 million in the first six months of 1998, and
$270 million in the second quarter of 1999, down from $286 million in the second
quarter of 1998. Net income was positively affected by the contribution from The
Money Store and gains from loan sales and securitizations, principally in the
first quarter of 1999, while it was negatively affected by a lower level of
deposits resulting from branch divestitures, primarily late in the third quarter
of 1998. Net interest income was $1.8 billion in the first six months of 1999
and in the first six months of 1998. Fee and other income was $1.1 billion in
the first six months of 1999 compared with $799 million in the first six months
of 1998, with the increase primarily
6
attributable to gains from the securitization of credit card, Small Business
Administration (SBA) and student loans, and the sale of first mortgages.
Residential mortgage income declined compared with the second quarter of 1998,
largely reflecting a lower level of mortgage securitizations and a significant
decline in refinancing activity. Noninterest expense was $1.8 billion in the
first six months of 1999 compared with $1.5 billion in the first six months of
1998, and $900 million in the second quarter of 1999 compared with $772 million
in the second quarter of 1998, with the increase largely related to the addition
of The Money Store.
Average consumer loans in the first six months of 1999 were $55 billion
compared with $58 billion in the first six months of 1998. In addition to the
impact from loans sold in connection with CoreStates-related branch
divestitures, the decrease in the consumer loan portfolio reflects the sale or
securitization of certain loans. In the second quarter of 1999 we also
securitized and retained as securities available for sale $6.7 billion in prime
equity lines to facilitate funding flexibility. The SECURITIES AVAILABLE FOR
SALE and the ASSET SECURITIZATIONS sections provide further information,
including a discussion of our business strategy for funding consumer loans.
Information related to our total managed portfolio of consumer loans is in Table
5.
In connection with the first quarter 1999 restructuring plan, we have
ceased indirect auto lending and auto leasing activity. We are currently
evaluating alternative strategies for the existing indirect lease portfolio. The
net book value of the portfolio at June 30, 1999, was $5.1 billion. The value of
this portfolio is subject to a combination of market and economic factors over
the life of the portfolio including consumers' appetite for new cars, new car
pricing and incentives, and the supply of used cards. These and other factors
can significantly affect the realization of the portfolio over its life. Exiting
this business will not affect our direct auto lending business. We will continue
to originate direct auto loans through various delivery channels. The
corporation's restructuring charge in the first six months of 1999 included $17
million related to exiting this business.
Average consumer deposits were $73 billion in the first six months of
1999 and $80 billion in the first six months of 1998, largely reflecting the
divestiture of $3.4 billion of deposits primarily in late 1998, $2.2 billion of
which related to the CoreStates merger, and the movement of deposits into
Capital Management investment products.
COMMERCIAL PRODUCTS
Our wholesale delivery strategy is to provide a comprehensive array of
financial solutions, including traditioanl commercial lending and cash
management products, primarily focused on corporate customers (annual sales
greater than $50 million); commercial customers (annual sales of $10 million to
$50 million); and small-business customers (annual sales up to $10 million). We
have an integrated relationship approach that leverages the capabilities of
Capital Markets to provide complex financing solutions, risk management products
and international services, and the capabilities of Capital Management to
provide property and casualty insurance, pension plans and 401(k) plans.
Commercial Products generated net income of $276 million in the first six
months of 1999 compared with $293 million in the first six months of 1998, and
$132 million in the second quarter of 1999 compared with $150 million in the
second quarter of 1998. Net interest income was $816 million in the first six
months of 1999 compared with $864 million in the first six months of 1998. Fee
and other income increased 6 percent to $272 million in the first six months of
1999, led by cash management activity. Noninterest expense was $617 million in
the first six months of 1999 and $616 million in the first six months of 1998,
and $308 million in the second quarters of both 1999 and 1998.
Average commercial loans in the first six months of 1999 declined to $34
billion from $37 billion in the first six months of 1998 due to reduced loan
originations and renewals, as well as to the transfer of corporate customer
relationships to Capital Markets. Average small business loans in the Small
Business Banking Division increased 15 percent to $2.9 billion in the
first six months of 1999 compared with the first six months of 1998.
In Table 3, Commercial Products includes the lending activities of our
Small Business Banking Division and excludes insurance, investment and
retirement services, and commercial deposit services for small business
customers.
TREASURY/NONBANK SEGMENT
The Treasury/Nonbank segment includes management of our securities
portfolios, our overall funding requirements and our asset and liability
management functions. The Treasury/Nonbank segment contains the goodwill asset
and the associated funding cost; certain expenses that are not allocated to the
business segments, including goodwill amortization; and corporate charges. The
SECURITIES AVAILABLE FOR SALE, INVESTMENT SECURITIES, LIQUIDITY AND FUNDING
SOURCES and MARKET RISK MANAGEMENT sections provide information about our
securities portfolios, funding sources and asset and liability management
functions.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
NET INTEREST MARGIN
Tax-equivalent net interest income of $3.7 billion in the first six
months of 1999 was virtually unchanged when compared with the first six months
of 1998.
The net interest margin, which is the difference between the
tax-equivalent yield on earning assets and the rate paid on funds to support
those assets, was 3.81 percent in the first six months of 1999 compared with
3.94 percent in the first six months of 1998. The net interest margin narrowed
from the first six months of 1998 because of a narrowing of loan and deposit
spreads as a result of competitive factors and the interest rate environment.
The margin also was negatively affected by the securitization of higher yielding
credit card balances. Deposit divestitures in late 1998 related to the
CoreStates merger also contributed to a declining margin as lower cost deposit
funding was replaced with higher cost borrowings. Changes in the composition of
our earning asset mix and a lower interest rate environment resulted in a
decrease in the average rate on earning assets from 7.89 percent in the first
six months of 1998 to 7.51 percent in the first six months of 1999. Our average
rate paid on liabilities decreased from 4.58 percent to 4.28 percent over this
same period due to the lower interest rate environment offset somewhat by the
change in funding mix. It should be noted that we focus on net income and
economic contribution when evaluating corporate strategies and that we place
less importance on the net interest margin impact of such decisions.
We use securities and off-balance sheet transactions to manage interest
rate sensitivity. More information on these transactions is included in the
MARKET RISK MANAGEMENT section.
FEE AND OTHER INCOME
We are continually developing products to meet the challenges of
increasing competition, changing customer demands and demographic shifts. We
have pursued strategic investments to build high-growth lines of business to
increase fee income. For example, we have significantly broadened our product
lines, particularly in Capital Markets and in Capital Management, to provide
additional sources of fee income that complement our long-standing banking
products and services. These investments were reflected in a 28 percent increase
in fee and other income, excluding portfolio securities transactions, to $3.6
billion in the first six months of 1999 from $2.8 billion in the first six
months of 1998.
Fee and other income from Capital Markets and Capital Management
activities amounted to more than one-half of fee and other income in the first
six months of 1999. Capital Markets fee and other income increased 28 percent to
$846 million in the first six months of 1999 from the first six months of 1998,
led by strong results in investment banking and trading activities. Capital
Management fee and other income increased 16 percent to $1.0 billion in the
first six months of 1999 from the first six months of 1998, primarily related to
strong growth in retail brokerage services, trust and CAP account sales. These
activities are discussed further in the BUSINESS SEGMENTS section.
7
In addition, strong results in residential mortgage, securitization
activity and an increase in sundry income contributed to the increase in fee and
other income. Residential mortgage income in the first six months of 1999
included $126 million of gains from the securitization and sale of $4.2 billion
of residential mortgage loans. Securitization income increased by $185 million
primarily resulting from the securitization and sale of credit card receivables,
SBA loans and student loans in the first six months of 1999.
Sundry income increased by $155 million in the first six months of 1999
compared with the first six months of 1998. Sundry income in the first six
months of 1999 included a gain of $109 million on the sale of net assets
associated with our factoring business, and a net gain of $177 million from the
acquisition by Concord EFS, Inc. (Concord), of Electronic Payment Services,
Inc., in which First Union held a 20 percent interest and the subsequent sale of
the Concord shares. In the first six months of 1998, sundry income included
branch sales gains of $84 million. There were no branch sales in the first six
months of 1999.
In the first quarter of 1999, portfolio-related net securities gains
included a $19 million impairment loss on retained interests in certain home
equity securitizations, particularly home improvement loans. This write-down was
the result of the impact of revised loss assumptions on the valuation of the
retained interests. More information related to interest-only and residual
certificates is included in the SECURITIES AVAILABLE FOR SALE section.
8
NONINTEREST EXPENSE
Noninterest expense was $4.56 billion in the first six months of 1999 and
$4.65 billion in the first six months of 1998. Noninterest expense in the first
six months of 1999 included expenses related to The Money Store, which was a
purchase accounting acquisition. In addition, the first six months of 1999
included $398 million of merger-related and restructuring charges compared with
$983 million in the first six months of 1998. In 1999 this included net
merger-related expenses of $51 million related to CoreStates and a $347 million
restructuring charge related to the restructuring plan we announced in March
1999. Over the past several years, the corporation has experienced rapid growth
through numerous acquisitions. These acquisitions have enabled the corporation
to expand into both new business markets and new geographic regions. In the
first quarter of 1999, it became apparent that the corporation was not realizing
the full benefit of operational efficiencies envisioned in these combinations.
As a result, management evaluated all facets of its operations, including such
areas as current and projected staffing levels, locations of bank and sales
branches, and office space requirements, including the impact that staff
reductions would have on these requirements. A primary objective of the
restructuring was to reduce operating expenses in our non-core businesses and
non-revenue producing functions. Based on this evaluation, in March 1999, we
announced a restructuring plan that included reengineering numerous processes
and functions throughout the corporation, closing or consolidating branches,
service centers and corporate office space, as well as exiting the indirect auto
finance business.
As a result of the restructuring plan, the corporation displaced
employees and recorded charges for the resulting employee termination benefits
to be paid. In addition, the corporation recorded occupancy-related charges that
included write-downs to fair value (less cost to sell) of owned premises that
were held for disposition as a result of the plan, and cancellation payments or
the present values of the remaining lease obligations for leased premises, or
portions thereof, that were associated with lease abandonments or
restructurings. Other assets, primarily computer hardware and software, the
value of which was considered to be impaired since they no longer would be used
as a result of the branch and operation center closings or the reduction in
workforce, were also written down to fair value (less cost to sell). Contract
cancellation costs that represented the cost to buy out the remaining term or
the present value of the remaining payments on contracts that provided no future
benefit to the corporation as a result of the restructuring were also recorded.
Employee termination benefits of $196 million included severance
payments, which may be paid in a lump sum or over a defined period, and related
benefits and outplacement services for 5,635 employees terminated in connection
with the restructuring. Substantially all of the employees were individually
notified of their termination on or before March 31, 1999. Of the terminated
employees, approximately 40 percent were from corporate staff units, 40 percent
were from the Consumer Products segment and 10 percent were from the branch
network. The remaining 10 percent were from non-critical areas within our
Capital Management Products and Capital Markets Products segments. By June 30,
1999, approximately 4,800, or 85 percent, of the terminated employees had left
the employment of the corporation. We anticipate that the remaining terminated
employees will leave by September 30, 1999. Through June 30, 1999, $66 million
in employee benefit costs have been paid, leaving $130 million for future
payments.
Included in occupancy charges of $54 million, was $24 million related to
the write-down of owned property as well as leasehold improvements and furniture
and equipment. These write-downs resulted from excess space due to the reduction
in the workforce and from the closing of branches. The amount of the write-down
represents the difference between the carrying value of the property at the time
that it was expected to be taken out of service and the estimated net proceeds
expected to be received upon disposal. The fair value was estimated using
customary appraisal techniques such as evaluating the real estate market
conditions in the region and the comparing of market values to comparable
properties. The remaining $30 million in occupancy charges represents the
present value of future lease obligations or lease cancellation penalties in
connection with the closure of approximately 104 branches and sales offices as
well as certain other corporate space.
Asset impairments, which were the direct result of the reduction in the
workforce and certain other restructuring activities, amounted to $69 million.
They consisted primarily of computer hardware write-offs of $64 million. Since
these assets could not be used elsewhere in the corporation, management intends
to dispose of the assets in a manner that will produce the highest economic
value to the corporation. Depreciation was discontinued at the time the asset
was determined to be held for disposal. At June 30, 1999, the carrying value of
the remaining assets held for disposal was $9 million. Substantially all such
assets will be taken out of service by September 30, 1999.
9
Also included in the restructuring charge was $25 million related to
contract cancellations, $14 million of which related to the planned exit of our
indirect auto leasing business. The plan called for immediately discontinuing
the origination of indirect auto leases and the disposition of the existing
portfolio by either attrition or sale. Substantially all of the $14 million
charge relates to our obligation pursuant to a pre-existing contract under which
we transferred certain lease receivables to a securitization trust. This
obligation represents the amount we will be required to pay in lieu of
delivering lease receivables into the trust, and it is a direct result of
exiting the indirect auto leasing business. The remaining $11 million charge
represents costs to write-down impaired assets to fair value less costs of
disposal and obligations to cancel other contracts.
The restructuring charge of $347 million, as well as the merger-related
expenses of $51 million recorded in 1999, were reflected in noninterest expense
within the Treasury/Nonbank segment. If we were to allocate the restructuring
charge to the various segments impacted, using our established segment
allocation methodologies, $197 million and $57 million of the charges would have
been allocated to the Consumer Products and Commercial Products segments,
respectively. The remainder of the charges would have been allocated to the
Treasury/Nonbank segment and to our other business segments.
The restructuring plan is expected to produce pre-tax cost savings of
approximately $400 million in 1999, as compared to our original projected
expense levels. These savings are expected to be achieved through reduced
personnel expenses of $198 million as a result of the reduction in the
workforce, lower depreciation expense of $19 million as a result of asset
dispositions, and lower expenses of $7 million related to the cancellation of
leases and contracts. The remainder of the cost savings is expected to be
achieved through personnel costs that will not be incurred because planned
hirings were discontinued and through other operating expenses related to the
reductions in staffing levels (e.g., lower training and travel costs) as well as
through efficiencies gained from reengineering of associated processes and
functions.
In connection with the acquisition of CoreStates, the corporation
recorded a $754 million restructuring charge. From the date of the acquisition
through June 30, 1999, $609 million has been charged against the initial accrual
representing payment of employee termination benefits, costs to close duplicate
or excess facilities, write-off of computer hardware and software no longer in
use, and contract cancellation costs. Based on revised estimates, $46 million of
the employee termination benefits accrual and $8 million of the investment
banking accrual has been reversed by a credit to the restructuring charge in the
income statement, $30 million of which was reversed in 1998 and $24 million of
which was reversed in the first quarter of 1999. Employee termination benefits
were less than original estimates as a result of several factors, including
voluntary resignations, and the termination of a higher proportion of employees
with less years of service. The remaining accrual of $91 million represents
employee termination benefits to be paid over future periods, at the election of
the employees (3,665 employees received or are receiving termination benefits)
as well as the remaining payments due on property leases and service contracts
cancelled in connection with the restructuring. These accruals will continue to
be assessed on a quarterly basis.
In November 1997 the corporation recorded a $252 million restructuring
charge related to the acquisition of Signet Banking Corporation, of which $65
million remains in the restructuring accrual. Approximately two-thirds of the
remaining accrual represents amounts due to key executives of Signet who were
terminated as a result of the acquisition and whose employment contracts called
for termination benefits to be paid over a specified period. These accruals will
continue to be assessed on a quarterly basis.
Included in Table 2 is an other restructuring accrual at June 30, 1999,
of $18 million. This relates primarily to the acquisition of Wheat First Butcher
Singer, and it represents remaining payments due to terminated employees and
contract cancellations.
Table 2 summarizes information about the merger-related and restructuring
charges.
We will continue to make significant investments in high-growth
businesses such as Capital Markets, Capital Management, the retail delivery
network and the Internet delivery channel. As a result, we do not expect the
restructuring plan to adversely affect revenue growth. In addition to The Money
Store and to the merger-related and restructuring charges, expenses in the first
six months of 1999 reflected higher personnel costs, primarily incentives
associated with revenue growth in Capital Markets and in Capital Management
Group, and continued spending related to our Future Bank retail model. The
operating overhead efficiency ratio before merger-related and restructuring
charges was 56.69 percent in the first six months of 1999 and 55.76 percent in
the first six months of 1998.
10
Amortization of other intangible assets predominantly represents the
amortization of goodwill and deposit base premium related to purchase accounting
acquisitions. These intangibles are amortized over periods ranging from six to
25 years. The increase in amortization expense in the first six months of 1999
from the first six months of 1998 was attributable to goodwill recorded in
connection with the June 30, 1998, purchase accounting acquisition of The Money
Store. We had $4.9 billion in other intangible assets at June 30, 1999, and $5.0
billion at December 31, 1998.
The IMPACT OF YEAR 2000 section provides information about our Year 2000
readiness and associated expenses.
CREDIT RISK MANAGEMENT
LOANS
The loan portfolio, which represents our largest asset class, is a
significant source of interest income and fee income. Elements of the loan
portfolio are subject to differing levels of credit and interest rate risk. Our
lending strategy stresses quality growth and portfolio diversification by
product, geography and industry. A common credit underwriting structure is in
place throughout the corporation.
The commercial loan portfolio includes general commercial loans, both
secured and unsecured, and commercial real estate loans. Commercial loans are
typically either working capital loans, which are used to finance the inventory,
receivables and other working capital needs of commercial borrowers, or term
loans, which are generally used to finance fixed assets or acquisitions.
Commercial real estate loans are typically used to finance the construction or
purchase of commercial real estate.
Our commercial lenders focus principally on middle-market companies.
Consistent with our longtime standard, we generally look for two repayment
sources for commercial real estate loans: cash flows from the project and other
resources of the borrower.
Consumer lending through our full-service bank branches is managed using
an automated underwriting system that combines statistical predictors of risk
and industry standards for acceptable levels of customer debt capacity and
collateral valuation. These guidelines are continually monitored for overall
effectiveness and for compliance with fair lending practices.
Net loans at June 30, 1999, were $134 billion compared with $135 billion
at December 31, 1998. The loan portfolio at June 30, 1999, was composed of 57
percent in commercial loans and 43 percent in consumer loans. In 1998 turmoil in
the global financial markets effectively closed down several capital markets
financing alternatives and customers turned to more traditional lending
products. As the global financial markets stabilized, our customers again sought
alternative financing, and as a result, in the first quarter of 1999, loans
declined from year-end 1998. In the second quarter of 1999, there was an
increase in loan originations, which was partially offset by the securitization
of certain consumer loans.
At June 30, 1999, unused loan commitments related to commercial and
consumer loans were $92 billion and $34 billion, respectively. Commercial and
standby letters of credit were $12 billion at June 30, 1999. At June 30, 1999,
loan participations sold to other lenders amounted to $2 billion.
Average net loans were $135 billion in the first six months of 1999 and
$132 billion in the first six months of 1998. The increase was due to growth in
home equity loan and commercial loan balances, which more than offset reductions
in mortgage loans and credit card balances. The average rate earned on loans was
8.08 percent in the first six months of 1999 compared with 8.57 percent in the
first six months of 1998.
The ASSET QUALITY section provides information about geographic exposure
in the loan portfolio.
COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE LOANS
Commercial real estate loans amounted to 8 percent of the total portfolio
at June 30, 1999, and at December 31, 1998. This portfolio included commercial
real estate mortgage loans of $8 billion at June 30, 1999, and $9 billion at
December 31, 1998. The decline reflects amortization and payoffs resulting from
customers obtaining term financing.
11
ASSET SECURITIZATIONS
In an asset securitization transaction that meets the applicable criteria
to be accounted for as a sale, loans are securitized and sold, a gain is
recognized at the time of the sale, and for transactions in which First Union
retains an interest in the cash flows of the assets sold, an interest-only or
residual certificate ("residual interest") is recorded. For student loans, SBA
loans, credit card receivables and certain other consumer loans, asset
securitization is our primary funding strategy. Residential mortgage loans may
be either securitized and sold as they are originated or retained on-balance
sheet, based on an analysis of various factors at the time of origination or
purchase. In 1998 asset securitizations were the primary funding strategy for
certain types of home equity loans. In the first six months of 1999, we
reevaluated our business strategy for funding subprime home equity loan products
and decided to pursue other strategies that are not accounted for as sales, and
accordingly, do not result in gain recognition or a residual interest.
Table 6 summarizes the activity in the balance sheet amounts for the
interest-only and residual certificates, the related valuation assumptions and
the related collateral data.
ASSET QUALITY
NONPERFORMING ASSETS
At June 30, 1999, nonperforming assets were $940 million, or 0.70 percent
of net loans and foreclosed properties, compared with $950 million, or 0.71
percent, at March 31, 1999, and $844 million, or 0.62 percent, at December 31,
1998.
Loans or properties of less than $5 million each made up 76 percent, or
$716 million, of nonperforming assets at June 30, 1999. Of the rest, nine loans
or properties each between $5 million and $10 million accounted for $64 million;
and eight loans or properties each over $10 million accounted for $160 million.
Thirty-five percent of nonperforming assets were collateralized primarily by
real estate at June 30, 1999, and 42 percent at December 31, 1998.
Nonperforming loans reduce interest income because the contribution from
these loans is eliminated or sharply reduced. In the first six months of 1999,
$59 million in gross interest income would have been recorded if all nonaccrual
and restructured loans had been performing in accordance with their original
terms and if they had been outstanding throughout the entire period (or since
origination if held for part of the period). The amount of interest income
recorded on these assets in the first six months of 1999 was $14 million.
PAST DUE LOANS
Accruing loans 90 days past due were $333 million at June 30, 1999,
compared with $344 million at March 31, 1999, and $385 million at December 31,
1998. Of the past dues at June 30, 1999, $99 million were commercial loans or
commercial real estate loans and $234 million were consumer loans.
NET CHARGE-OFFS
Net charge-offs amounted to $344 million in the first six months of 1999
and $285 million in the first six months of 1998. Net charge-offs were 0.51
percent of average net loans in the first six months of 1999 compared with 0.43
percent in the first six months of 1998. The increase in part largely reflected
charge-offs of a portion of two corporate credits. These borrowers experienced
credit quality deterioration attributed to the third quarter 1998 financial
markets disruption.
We carefully monitor trends in both the commercial and consumer loan
portfolios for signs of credit weakness. Additionally, we continually evaluate
our credit policies in light of changing economic trends, and where necessary we
take steps we believe are appropriate.
PROVISION AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
The loan loss provision was $344 million in the first six months of 1999
compared with $285 million in the first six months of 1998. The allowance for
loan losses was $1.8 billion at June 30, 1999, and at December 31, 1998. The
allowance as a percentage of loans was essentially unchanged at June 30, 1999,
compared with year-end 1998. At
12
June 30, 1999, the overall portfolio credit quality remained stable compared
with December 31, 1998, and we consider the allowance for loan losses adequate
to cover probable credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio.
Our methodology for determining the allowance for loan losses establishes
both an allocated and unallocated component. The allocated portion of the
allowance represents the allowance needed for specific loans and specific
portfolios. The allocated portion of the allowance for commercial loans is based
principally on current loan grades, historical loan loss rates, borrowers'
creditworthiness, as well as analyses of other factors that might affect the
portfolio. We analyze all loans in excess of $1 million that are being monitored
as potential credit problems to determine whether supplemental, specific
reserves are necessary given borrowers' collateral values and cash flows. The
allocated portion of the allowance for consumer loans is based principally on
delinquencies and historical and projected loss rates. The unallocated portion
of our allowance for loan losses represents the results of other analyses, which
are intended to ensure the allowance is adequate for other probable losses
inherent in our portfolio. These analyses include consideration of changes in
credit risk resulting from the changing underwriting criteria, including
acquired loan portfolios, changes in the types and mix of loans originated,
industry concentrations and evaluations, allowance levels relative to selected,
overall credit criteria and other loss-predictive economic indicators.
Impaired loans, which are included in nonaccrual loans, amounted to $486
million at June 30, 1999, compared with $424 million at December 31, 1998.
Included in the allowance for loan losses at June 30, 1999, was $92 million
related to $442 million of impaired loans. The remaining impaired loans were
recorded at or below fair value. In the first six months of 1999, the average
recorded investment in impaired loans was $476 million, and $11 million of
interest income was recognized on impaired loans. This income was recognized
using the cash-basis method of accounting.
GEOGRAPHIC EXPOSURE
The loan portfolio in the East Coast region of the United States is
spread primarily across 106 metropolitan areas with diverse economies. Our
largest markets are: Atlanta, Georgia; Charlotte, North Carolina; Miami and
Jacksonville, Florida; Newark, New Jersey; New York, New York; Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania; and Washington, D.C. Substantially all of the collateral related
to our $11 billion commercial real estate portfolio at June 30, 1999, was
located in our East Coast banking region.
LIQUIDITY AND FUNDING SOURCES
Liquidity planning and management are necessary to ensure we maintain the
ability to fund operations cost-effectively and to meet current and future
obligations such as loan commitments and deposit outflows. In this process we
focus on both assets and liabilities and on the manner in which they combine to
provide adequate liquidity to meet the corporation's needs.
Funding sources primarily include customer-based core deposits but also
include purchased funds and cash flows from operations. First Union is one of
the nation's largest core deposit-funded banking institutions. Our large deposit
base, which is spread across the economically strong South Atlantic region and
high per-capita income Middle Atlantic region, creates considerable funding
diversity and stability.
Asset liquidity is maintained through maturity management and through our
ability to liquidate assets, primarily securities available for sale. Another
significant source of asset liquidity is the ability to securitize assets such
as credit card receivables and auto, student and mortgage loans. Other
off-balance sheet sources of liquidity exist as well.
CORE DEPOSITS
Core deposits include savings, negotiable order of withdrawal (NOW),
money market, noninterest-bearing and other consumer time deposits. Core
deposits were $122 billion at June 30, 1999, compared with $131 billion at
December 31, 1998. The decline since year-end 1998 primarily reflects a seasonal
dip in demand deposit accounts as well as the movement of time deposits into
alternative investment products.
In response to growing customer demand for investment products as
alternatives to deposit products, we began offering mutual funds, annuities and
other investment products in 1994. Although this reduces our deposit base,
we do retain valuable customer relationships that might otherwise be lost
to other financial services companies. We estimate that in the past 12 months,
core deposits of approximately $4.5 billion have moved into those alternative
customer investment products.
13
The portion of core deposits in higher-rate, other consumer time deposits
was 27 percent at June 30, 1999, and at December 31, 1998. Other consumer time
and other noncore deposits usually pay higher rates than savings and transaction
accounts, but they generally are not available for immediate withdrawal. They
are also less expensive to process.
Average core deposit balances were $124 billion in the first six months
of 1999 and $125 billion in the first six months of 1998. In 1998 we divested
$3.7 billion of deposits, including $2.2 billion in the third quarter of 1998.
These were primarily regulatory-required divestitures in connection with
acquisitions.
In the first six months of 1999 and 1998, average noninterest-bearing
deposits were 26 percent and 24 percent, respectively, of average core deposits.
The first six months of 1999 average balances in savings and NOW and
noninterest-bearing deposits were higher when compared with the first six months
of 1998, while money market and other consumer time deposits were lower.
Deposits can be affected by numerous factors, including branch closings and
consolidations, seasonal factors and the rates being offered compared to other
investment opportunities. The NET INTEREST INCOME SUMMARIES section provides
additional information about average core deposits.
PURCHASED FUNDS
Purchased funds at June 30, 1999, were $51 billion compared with $53
billion at year-end 1998. The decrease occurred primarily because of our
strategy to reduce the balance of low-yielding assets on our balance sheet. We
reduced low-yielding assets by shrinking our short-term investment portfolio,
altering hedging strategies and modifying certain trading strategies. These
actions were taken to maximize our capacity to repurchase our common stock in
the first six months of 1999. Average purchased funds in the first six months of
1999 were $50 billion compared with $53 billion in the first six months of 1998.
Purchased funds are acquired through national market sources, and they include
relatively short-term funding sources such as federal funds, securities sold
under repurchase agreements, eurodollar time deposits, short-term bank notes and
commercial paper, and longer-term funding sources such as term bank notes,
Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings and corporate notes. Purchased funds are also
acquired through our large branch network by issuing $100,000 and over
certificates of deposit and receipt of public funds and treasury deposits.
CASH FLOWS
Cash flows from operations are a significant source of liquidity. Net
cash provided from operations results from net income adjusted for noncash
accounting items, primarily the provision for loan losses and depreciation. This
cash was available in the first six months of 1999 to increase earning assets,
to make discretionary investments and to reduce borrowings.
LONG-TERM DEBT
Long-term debt amounted to $30 billion at June 30, 1999, and $23 billion
at year-end 1998. The level of long-term debt was increased to take advantage of
favorable market conditions and to provide a funding alternative to purchased
funds.
At June 30, 1999, and at December 31, 1998, long-term debt included $1.7
billion of trust capital securities. Subsidiary trusts issued these capital
securities and used the proceeds to purchase junior subordinated debentures from
the corporation. These capital securities are considered tier 1 capital for
regulatory purposes.
Under a shelf registration statement filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission, we currently have $1.5 billion of senior or subordinated
debt securities, common stock or preferred stock available for issuance. The
sale of any additional debt or equity securities will depend on future market
conditions, funding needs and other factors. In June 1999 we issued $400 million
of 6 5/8 percent senior notes due in 2004.
Our principal banking subsidiary, First Union National Bank, has
available a global note program for the issuance of up to $20 billion of senior
and subordinated notes. Under the program, $13 billion of the notes had been
issued at June 30, 1999. In June 1999 First Union National Bank established a
new global note program for the issuance of up to $25 billion of senior and
subordinated notes. At June 30, 1999, no notes had been issued under this
program. The sale of any additional notes will depend on future market
conditions, funding needs and other factors.
14
In the last six months of 1999, long-term debt of $6.5 billion will
mature. Funds for the payment of long-term debt will come from operations or, if
necessary, additional borrowings.
CREDIT LINES
We have $350 million in committed back-up lines of credit, $175 million
of which expires in June 2000 and the remaining $175 million of which expires in
July 2002. These credit facilities contain covenants that require First Union to
maintain a minimum level of tangible net worth, restrict double leverage ratios
and require capital levels at subsidiary banks to meet regulatory standards.
First Union has not used these lines of credit.
STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
The management of capital in a regulated banking environment requires a
balance between maximizing leverage and return on equity to stockholders while
maintaining sufficient capital levels and related ratios to satisfy regulatory
requirements. We have historically generated attractive returns on equity to
stockholders while maintaining sufficient regulatory capital ratios.
Stockholders' equity was $16 billion at June 30, 1999, and $17 billion at
December 31, 1998. Common shares outstanding amounted to 956 million at June 30,
1999, compared with 982 million at December 31, 1998. In connection with a 50
million share buyback program announced in November 1998, we repurchased 10
million shares at a cost of $617 million by year-end 1998, and we repurchased an
additional 37 million shares at a cost of $1.9 billion in the first six months
of 1999. In addition, in the second quarter of 1999, our Board of Directors
authorized an additional 50 million share buyback program, which has not been
utilized. In the first six months of 1998, we repurchased 40 million shares of
common stock at a cost of $2.4 billion.
In February 1999, the Board authorized the use of forward equity sales
transactions ("equity forwards") in connection with our buyback program. The use
of equity forwards is intended to provide us with the ability to purchase the
shares under the buyback programs in the market and then issue shares in private
transactions to the counterparty in the amounts necessary to maintain targeted
capital ratios. In March 1999, we entered into two equity forwards involving 10
million shares and 4 million shares each.
Under the terms of the equity forwards, First Union issued shares of
common stock to an investment banking firm (the "counterparty") at a specified
price which approximated market value. Simultaneously, we entered into a forward
contract with the same counterparty to repurchase the shares at the same price
plus a premium (the "forward price").
From the dates the shares were issued to the counterparty in March 1999,
until such time as First Union repurchases the shares under the forward
contract, the counterparty has all of the legal rights attendant to ownership of
the underlying shares, including the right to vote the shares and the right to
sell or pledge the shares at their discretion. They will receive all dividends
to which stockholders of record during the time covered by the term of the
equity forwards are entitled. For purposes of First Union's earnings per share
calculation, the shares are considered outstanding until repurchased. The equity
forwards have been accounted for as equity transactions.
Under the terms of the equity forwards, First Union has the sole option
of determining the method of settlement when the equity forwards mature from
among the following options: gross physical settlement, net share settlement and
net cash settlement. Net share settlement and net cash settlement could result
in the sale of all underlying shares (and in certain circumstances additional
shares) to third parties by the counterparty in public or private sales.
The 10-million share and 4-million share equity forwards mature in
October 1999 and January 2000, respectively. The equity forwards can be extended
by mutual consent of the parties. If the contracts are extended, the premium
continues until the equity forward is settled. First Union can elect to
terminate the equity forwards, in whole or in part, before their maturity by
giving adequate notice to the counterparty and by paying a termination fee. In
such circumstances, First Union retains the ability to select the settlement
method from among the three methods outlined above.
15
We also have repurchased 11 million shares at a cost of $471 million (a
total of approximately 24 million shares are expected to be repurchased) related
to the EVEREN acquisition and which are incremental to the 50 million repurchase
programs.
We paid $901 million in dividends to common stockholders in the first six
months of 1999 compared with $693 million in the first six months of 1998. This
represented an operating dividend payout ratio of 49.47 percent in the first six
months of 1999.
At June 30, 1999, stockholders' equity was reduced by $349 million in
accumulated other comprehensive income, net, substantially all of which was
related to net unrealized losses on debt and equity securities.
SUBSIDIARY DIVIDENDS
First Union National Bank is the largest source of parent company
dividends. Capital requirements established by regulators limit dividends that
this subsidiary and certain other of our subsidiaries can pay. Banking
regulators generally limit a bank's dividends in two principal ways: first,
dividends cannot exceed the bank's undivided profits, less statutory bad debt in
excess of a bank's allowance for loan losses; and second, in any year dividends
cannot exceed a bank's net profits for that year, plus its retained earnings
from the preceding two years, less any required transfers to surplus. Under
these and other limitations, which include an internal requirement to maintain
all deposit-taking banks at the well-capitalized level, our subsidiaries had
$1.1 billion available for dividends at June 30, 1999, without prior regulatory
approval. Our subsidiaries paid $1.4 billion in dividends to the parent company
in the first six months of 1999. In addition, the consolidation of our principal
bank in our northern region with our North Carolina-based bank resulted in a
reduction of its capital of $600 million, which was paid to the parent company.
REGULATORY CAPITAL
Federal banking regulations require that bank holding companies and their
subsidiary banks maintain minimum levels of capital. These banking regulations
measure capital using three formulas including tier 1 capital, total capital and
leverage capital. The minimum level for the ratio of total capital to
risk-weighted assets, including certain off-balance sheet financial instruments,
is currently 8 percent. At June 30, 1999, the tier 1 and total capital ratios
were 6.65 percent and 10.68 percent, respectively, compared with 6.94 percent
and 11.12 percent at December 31, 1998.
In addition, the minimum leverage ratio of tier 1 capital to adjusted
average quarterly assets is 3 percent for bank holding companies that meet
specified criteria, including having the highest regulatory rating. All other
bank holding companies are generally required to maintain a leverage ratio of 4
percent. Our leverage ratio at June 30, 1999, was 5.95 percent, and at December
31, 1998, it was 6.02 percent.
The regulatory agencies also have adopted regulations establishing
capital tiers for banks. Banks in the highest capital tier, or well capitalized,
must have a leverage ratio of 5 percent, a tier 1 capital ratio of 6 percent and
a total capital ratio of 10 percent. At June 30, 1999, our deposit-taking
subsidiary banks met the capital and leverage ratio requirements for well
capitalized banks. First Union Home Equity Bank, N.A., First Union Trust
Company, N.A., and First Union Direct Bank, N.A., are not deposit-taking banks.
MARKET RISK MANAGEMENT
INTEREST RATE RISK METHODOLOGY
Managing interest rate risk is fundamental to banking. The inherent
maturity and repricing characteristics of our day-to-day lending and deposit
activities create a naturally asset-sensitive structure. By using a combination
of on- and off-balance sheet financial instruments, we manage the sensitivity of
earnings to changes in interest rates within our established policy guidelines.
The Credit/Market Risk Committee of the corporation's Board of Directors
reviews overall interest rate risk management activity. The Funds Management
Committee of the corporation oversees the interest rate risk management process
and approves policy guidelines. Balance sheet management and finance personnel
monitor the day-to-day exposure to changes in interest rates in response to loan
and deposit flows. They make adjustments within established policy guidelines.
16
Our methodology for measuring exposure to interest rate risk for policy
measurement is intended to ensure we include a sufficiently broad range of rate
scenarios and a pattern of rate movements that we believe to be reasonably
possible. Our methodology measures the impact that 200 basis point rate changes
would have on earnings per share over the subsequent 12 months.
We use two separate measures that each include three standard scenarios
in analyzing interest rate sensitivity for policy measurement. Each of these
measures compares our forecasted earnings per share in both a "high rate" and
"low rate" scenario to a base-line scenario. One base-line scenario is our
estimated most likely path for future short-term interest rates over the next 24
months. Another base-line scenario holds short-term rates flat at their current
level over our forecast horizon. The "high rate" and "low rate" scenarios assume
gradual 200 basis point increases or decreases in the federal funds rate from
the beginning point of each base-line scenario over the following 12-month
period. Our policy limit for the maximum negative impact on earnings per share
resulting from "high rate" or "low rate" scenarios is 5 percent. The policy
limit applies to both the "most likely rate" scenario and the "flat rate"
scenario. The policy measurement period is 12 months in length, beginning with
the first month of the forecast.
EARNINGS SENSITIVITY
Our July 1999 estimate for future short-term interest rates (our "most
likely rate" scenario) projects the federal funds rate will increase from the
current rate of 5.00 percent to 5.25 percent by September 1999, remain constant
through August 2000 and then decrease to 5.00 percent and stay at that level
through June 2001. Our "flat rate" scenario holds the federal funds rate
constant at 5.00 percent through June 2001.
Based on the July 1999 outlook, if interest rates were to follow our
"high rate" scenario (i.e., a 200 basis point increase in short-term rates from
our "flat rate" scenario), the model indicates that earnings during the policy
measurement period would be negatively affected by 3.4 percent. Our model
indicates that earnings would benefit by 2.8 percent in our "low rate" scenario
(i.e., a 200 basis point decline in short-term rates from our "flat rate"
scenario). Compared to our "most likely rate" scenario, earnings would decrease
3.7 percent over the policy measurement period if rates rise gradually by 200
basis points, and earnings would increase by 2.8 percent if rates fall gradually
by 200 basis points.
In addition to the standard scenarios used to analyze rate sensitivity
over the policy measurement period, we regularly analyze the potential impact of
other remote, more extreme interest rate scenarios. These alternate "what if"
scenarios may include interest rate paths both higher, lower and more volatile
than those used for policy measurement. We also perform our analysis for time
periods that reach beyond the 12-month policy period. For example, based on our
July 1999 outlook, if interest rates in calendar year 2000 were 200 basis points
lower than our "most likely rate" scenario, earnings would increase by 7.1
percent. If rates were 200 basis points higher than our "most likely rate"
scenario in 2000, those earnings would be negatively affected by 7.2 percent.
While our interest rate sensitivity modeling assumes that management
takes no action, we regularly assess the viability of strategies to reduce
unacceptable risks to earnings, and we implement such strategies when we believe
those actions are prudent. As new monthly outlooks become available, management
will continue to formulate strategies aimed at protecting earnings from the
potential negative effects of changes in interest rates.
UNREALIZED GAINS (LOSSES) IN CERTAIN FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Beginning this quarter, we have included Table 14, which is designed to
summarize unrealized gains and losses in the securities available for sale,
investment securities and off-balance sheet derivative portfolios. Changes in
the market value of the instruments in these three portfolios, and corresponding
unrealized gains and losses, are primarily the result of changes in market
interest rates. These three portfolios are the primary means we use to manage
overall interest rate risk while enhancing corporate earnings. Changes in the
market value of these portfolios offset changes in market value and future
interest income or expense related to other balance sheet items, such as loans,
deposits and borrowings.
At June 30, 1999, the combined market value in these portfolios as
described in Table 14 was a net unrealized loss of $293 million. The increase or
decrease in the value of these portfolios has very little impact on current
earnings.
17
SECURITIES AVAILABLE FOR SALE
The securities available for sale portfolio consists primarily of U.S.
Treasury, U.S. Government agency, municipal and asset-backed securities, which
includes interest-only and residual certificates. At June 30, 1999, we had
securities available for sale with a market value of $46 billion compared with
$37 billion at year-end 1998.
On January 1, 1999, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 134 (see the ACCOUNTING AND REGULATORY MATTERS section). In
adopting this Standard, we classified all interest-only and residual
certificates ("residual interests"), which resulted from our securitization
transactions accounted for as sales, as securities available for sale.
Purchased residual interests are also classified as securities available for
sale. The fair value of the residual interests at June 30, 1999, was $1.5
billion. If at any time the estimated fair value of an individual residual
interest indicates that the yield is below a risk-free rate of return, a loss is
recognized in earnings for the amount by which the fair value exceeds the
carrying value; otherwise valuation changes are reflected through other
comprehensive income.
We use complex modeling techniques to estimate the fair value of residual
interests. These modeling techniques estimate the amount and timing of cash
flows over the estimated life of the residual interests using assumptions for
discount rates, collateral prepayment, delinquency and loss trends, and
servicing effectiveness. The determination of the appropriate assumptions to be
used in the valuation model is subjective, and minor changes in assumptions can
have a significant impact on the fair value of a residual interest and the
timing of recognition in earnings of an impairment loss.
Securities available for sale transactions resulted in net realized gains
of $24 million in the first six months of 1999 compared with $48 million in the
first six months of 1998. Activity in this portfolio is undertaken primarily to
manage liquidity and interest rate risk and to take advantage of market
conditions that create more economically attractive returns on these
investments.
The average rate earned on securities available for sale was 6.61 percent
in the first six months of 1999 and 6.64 percent in the first six months of
1998. The average maturity of the portfolio was 7.41 years at June 30, 1999.
INVESTMENT SECURITIES
The investment securities portfolio consists primarily of U.S. Government
agency, corporate, municipal and mortgage-backed securities, and collateralized
mortgage obligations. Our investment securities amounted to $1.9 billion at June
30, 1999, and $2.0 billion at December 31, 1998.
The average rate earned on investment securities was 8.17 percent in the
first six months of 1999 and 7.73 percent in the first six months of 1998. The
average maturity of the portfolio was 5.46 years at June 30, 1999.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET DERIVATIVES
FOR INTEREST RATE RISK MANAGEMENT
As part of our overall interest rate risk management strategy, we use
off-balance sheet derivatives as a cost- and capital-efficient way to modify the
repricing or maturity characteristics of on-balance sheet assets and
liabilities. Our off-balance sheet derivative transactions used for interest
rate risk management include various interest rate swap, futures and option
structures with indices that relate to the pricing of specific financial
instruments of the corporation. We believe we have appropriately controlled the
risk so that derivatives used for interest rate risk management will not have
any significant unintended effect on corporate earnings. As a matter of practice
we do not use highly leveraged derivative instruments for interest rate risk
management. The impact of derivative products on our earnings and rate
sensitivity is fully incorporated in the earnings simulation model in the same
manner as on-balance sheet instruments.
The fair value of off-balance sheet derivative financial instruments
used to manage our interest rate sensitivity was $379 million at June 30, 1999,
compared with $1.1 billion at December 31, 1998.
The carrying amount of financial instruments used for interest rate risk
management includes amounts for deferred gains and losses related to terminated
positions, which at June 30, 1999, were not significant.
18
Although off-balance sheet derivative financial instruments do not expose
the corporation to credit risk equal to the notional amount, we are exposed to
credit risk equal to the extent of the fair value gain in an off-balance sheet
derivative financial instrument if the counterparty fails to perform. We
minimize the credit risk in these instruments by dealing only with high-quality
counterparties. Each transaction is specifically approved for applicable credit
exposure. As of June 30 , 1999, the total mark-to-market related credit risk for
derivative transactions in excess of counterparty thresholds was $573 million.
The fair value of collateral held exceeded the total mark-to-market related
credit risk in excess of counterparty thresholds as of such date. For nondealer
transactions the need for collateral is evaluated on an individual transaction
basis, and it is primarily dependent on the financial strength of the
counterparty.
TRADING RISK MANAGEMENT
Trading activities are undertaken primarily to satisfy the investment and
risk management needs of our customers and secondarily to enhance our earnings
through profitable trading for the corporation's own account. We trade a variety
of debt securities and foreign exchange, as well as financial and foreign
currency derivatives, in order to provide customized solutions for the risk
management challenges faced by our customers. We maintain diversified trading
positions in both the fixed income and foreign exchange markets. Risk is
controlled through the imposition of value-at-risk (VAR) limits and an active,
independent monitoring process.
We use the VAR methodology for measuring the market risk of the
corporation's trading positions. This statistical methodology uses recent market
volatility to estimate the maximum daily trading loss that the corporation would
expect to incur, on average, 97.5 percent of the time. The model also measures
the effect of the interrelationships among the various trading instruments to
determine how much risk is eliminated by offsetting positions. The VAR analysis
is supplemented by stress testing on a daily basis. The analysis captures all
financial assets and liabilities that are considered trading positions
(including loan trading activities), foreign exchange and financial and foreign
currency derivative instruments. The calculation uses historical data from the
most recent 252 business days. The total VAR amount at June 30, 1999, was $12
million, compared to $19 million at December 31, 1998, substantially all of
which related to interest rate risk.
IMPACT OF YEAR 2000
In February 1996, First Union initiated a Year 2000 project to address
the issues associated with its computer systems and business functions through
the turn of the century. The project, which is under the overall direction of
the chief technology officer, consists of a project team representing all areas
within First Union. The progress of the work related to Year 2000 compliance is
reported to a Year 2000 steering committee on a monthly basis and to the Audit
Committee of the Board of Directors on a monthly basis. The bank regulatory
agencies established June 30, 1999, as a date by which certain key Year 2000
activities were required to be completed. We satisfied these requirements at
June 30, 1999. This Year 2000 information is designated as Year 2000 Readiness
Disclosures related to the Year 2000 Information and Readiness Disclosure Act.
We have assessed the Year 2000 risk of information technology systems,
non-information technology systems and business relationships as: Mission
Critical - those areas where lack of compliance could cause major operational
risk to First Union; High Risk - those areas where lack of compliance could
affect First Union, but would not cause the failure of core operations; Medium
Risk - those areas where lack of compliance would not have a major impact to our
customers; or Low Risk - those areas that do not affect customers and that could
be delayed or otherwise processed on an exception basis.
The Planning and Assessment phase, which includes the identification of
potential points of failure requiring focused Year 2000 efforts, was
substantially completed in 1998.
INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY SYSTEMS
Information technology systems include proprietary and vendor-supported
business applications. The most significant phases of the Year 2000 project
related to information technology systems are analysis and remediation,
remediation testing, and certification. Analysis and remediation includes the
modification of program code to address date-related issues. Remediation testing
includes limited integration testing and unit testing in various test
environments to validate remediation. In this phase, applications are tested for
Year 2000 compliance to verify that the application executes correctly with Year
2000 changes included. We consider information technology systems to be Year
2000 compliant when the analysis and remediation and remediation testing phases
of the Year 2000 project have been completed.
19
As of June 30, 1999, we had completed the analysis and remediation and
remediation testing phases on all major business applications that are rated
Mission Critical and High Risk, with the exception of one vendor-supported
application where the Year 2000-related effort is being completed in conjunction
with our conversion to this application, both of which are expected to be
completed by August 31, 1999. The analysis and remediation and remediation
testing phases on all major business applications that are rated Medium Risk or
Low Risk are substantially complete.
The analysis and remediation and remediation testing phases on EVEREN's
major business applications are expected to be completed by the date of
consummation of this acquisition, which is currently expected to occur at the
end of the third quarter or at the beginning of the fourth quarter of 1999.
With respect to personal computers, we have identified which versions of
software and which models of hardware the manufacturers have identified as Year
2000 compliant, and we continually reassess manufacturers' representations. As
of June 30, 1999, substantially all of the personal computer hardware and
software at all First Union locations had been certified as Year 2000 compliant.
The certification phase includes integrated processing of future dates
and addresses all frequencies of processing and all major computing platforms.
Every effort has been made to emulate a production environment, including
applications, system software, hardware and critical internal and external
interfaces. Certification also includes user acceptance testing and testing with
customers and other key counterparties.
The certification phase began in late 1998. Testing for all significant
cycles will be completed by September 30, 1999. In addition, during the fourth
quarter of 1999, a final certification test will take place in conjunction with
a strict change control process to ensure that information technology systems
remain Year 2000 compliant.
NON-INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY SYSTEMS
First Union's Year 2000 project encompasses embedded technology in
non-information technology areas, including facilities and related building
services, such as utilities, security systems, general business equipment and
non-computer office equipment. As of June 30, 1999, there were approximately 70
facilities and the related building services that have been identified as
Mission Critical or High Risk. At June 30, 1999, testing of these Mission
Critical and High Risk facilities and the related building services was 70
percent complete. Other Year 2000 priorities have delayed completion of all the
facilities; however, substantially all of them will be completed by August 31,
1999.
BUSINESS RELATIONSHIPS
We have requested warranties from our vendors certifying that their
products will be Year 2000 compliant. In addition, we have identified and are
separately monitoring on an ongoing basis those vendors who are not compliant,
who have not responded to our requests or who have not adequately demonstrated
that they can make their products Year 2000 compliant.
First Union is evaluating the Year 2000 readiness of its borrowers and
the resulting effect on the credit quality of our loan portfolio. We have
developed a Year 2000 credit risk policy, which requires that a risk assessment
be performed on all new and existing borrowers, subject to certain criteria. All
borrowers covered by the policy have been assigned a Year 2000 risk rating,
which is periodically reevaluated as new information becomes available.
External customer testing began in January 1999, and it will continue
throughout 1999. This testing will verify the Year 2000 readiness of
transmissions, file exchanges, and input and output transaction capabilities
between First Union and participating customers and third party agencies.
Testing with third parties is occurring based on published schedules by each
third party, and First Union is participating in all third party mandatory
testing dates. Wire transfer testing with the Federal Reserve, CHIPS and SWIFT
has been successfully completed. All ATM networks have been tested and
certified.
20
POTENTIAL DISRUPTIONS
While First Union is making every effort to prepare for potential Year
2000 disruptions, there can be no guarantee that unforeseen internal or external
Year 2000 failures or disruptions that could have operational or financial
impact will not occur. We anticipate that the most reasonably likely worst case
scenario that we could face would include third party Year 2000 disruption.
First Union has taken action to anticipate and react to potential Year
2000 disruptions. This includes the development of business continuity plans and
contingency plans. These plans support the process to ensure that First Union
can continue operations in the event that information technology systems,
non-information technology systems or business relationships are not Year 2000
compliant. As of June 30, 1999, all business continuity plans were complete and
tested. In addition, these plans will continue to evolve with changes in the
business.
In support of First Union's transition into Year 2000, a network of
control centers will be utilized to handle problem management and reporting. A
main control center will be established that will serve as the primary contact
point for bank management and outside agencies, and it will include onsite
representation from Year 2000 management, Corporate Crisis Management and
Internal Audit. Tools and procedures are being developed to support these
efforts, and they are planned to be in place by September 30, 1999. Contingency
plans are being developed for all control centers and their critical components.
A mock test for all control centers, tools and procedures will be performed in
November 1999 with a final readiness review taking place in December 1999.
Control centers will be open and operational from late December 1999 through
early January 2000.
LIQUIDITY
The Federal Reserve has acknowledged that the flow of funds into and out
of insured depository institutions may be more volatile at year-end 1999 as a
result of Year 2000-related concerns. In response, the Federal Reserve has
established a Century Date Change Special Liquidity vehicle to enable depository
institutions to confidently commit to supplying credit to other financial
institutions and businesses through the end of this year. We have planned our
need for funding based on the assumption that some customers will withdraw funds
from demand accounts in preparation for Year 2000, demand for currency will be
higher than normal, demand for credit may be higher than normal, and certain
wholesale funding markets may be less liquid than normal. We have prepared for
the possibility that these could occur by systematically extending the maturity
of term deposits and borrowings beyond the fourth quarter of 1999, by improving
the liquidity of our asset portfolio, and by arranging for backup credit
facilities where necessary.
COST
First Union currently estimates the cost for the Year 2000 project will
amount to $60 million to $65 million pretax. This amount includes only the costs
associated with the core Year 2000 project office team, incremental personnel
and contractors hired specifically to participate in the Year 2000 project and
direct expenses incurred on the project. The cost associated with the
redeployment of personnel to the Year 2000 projects, which is excluded from the
costs included herein, is expected to be significantly less than the incremental
cost. In the first six months of 1999, $20 million was incurred on the Year 2000
project, and as of June 30, 1999, $46 million has been incurred since project
inception.
ACCOUNTING AND REGULATORY MATTERS
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 134, ACCOUNTING FOR
MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES RETAINED AFTER THE SECURITIZATION OF MORTGAGE LOANS
HELD FOR SALE BY A MORTGAGE BANKING ENTERPRISE, conforms the accounting for
securities retained after the securitization of mortgage loans with the
accounting for securities retained after the securitization of other types of
assets. Under this Standard, retained interests resulting from the
securitization of mortgage loans held for sale are classified either in
securities available for sale or in trading account assets based on intent. The
corporation adopted this Standard on January 1, 1999, and as a result, we
reclassified all interest-only and residual certificates to securities available
for sale.
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, ACCOUNTING FOR
DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES, as amended by Standards No. 137,
establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivatives and hedging
activities. This Standard requires that all derivatives be recognized as assets
or liabilities in the balance sheet and that such instruments be measured at
fair value through adjustments to either other comprehensive
21
income or current earnings or both, depending on the purpose for which the
derivative is held. This Standard significantly changes the accounting for
hedge-related derivatives. For the corporation, the Standard is effective
January 1, 2001. The corporation is in the process of assessing the impact of
this Standard.
Legislation has been enacted providing that deposits and certain claims
for administrative expenses and employee compensation against an insured
depository institution are afforded a priority over other general unsecured
claims against such an institution, including federal funds and letters of
credit, in the liquidation or other resolution of such an institution by any
receiver.
Both houses of the U.S. Congress have passed separate bills providing for
financial modernization legislation. Such legislation would generally permit
common ownership by bank holding companies of commercial banks, investment
banks, insurance companies and similar financial firms, and would permit those
organizations to engage in certain businesses that bank holding companies are
currently prohibited from undertaking. The two versions of financial services
legislation are currently the subject of a House and Senate compromise
committee, and it is uncertain whether final financial modernization legislation
will ultimately be passed by both houses of the U.S. Congress, whether such
legislation will become law and what the impact of such legislation would be to
First Union. Given the uncertainty of the proposal process, we cannot assess the
impact of any such proposals on our financial condition or results of
operations. Various other legislative and accounting proposals concerning the
banking industry are pending in Congress and with the Financial Accounting
Standards Board, respectively.

market value of $1.5 billion; gross unrealized gains and losses of $49 million
and $85 million, respectively; and an amortized cost of $1.6 billion.
Included in "U.S. Government agencies" and "Sundry" are $849 million of
securities denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. These
securities had a weighted average maturity of 5.15 years and a weighted average
yield of 5.96 percent. For comparative purposes, the weighted average U.S.
dollar equivalent yield of these securities was 7.97 percent based on a weighted
average funding cost differential of (2.01) percent.

prepayment penalties. Average maturity excludes equity securities and money
market funds.
Yields related to securities exempt from federal and state income taxes are
stated on a fully tax-equivalent basis. They are reduced by the nondeductible
portion of interest expense, assuming a federal tax rate of 35 percent and
applicable state tax rates.

cost which approximates market value of $19 million, and commitments to sell
securities at a cost of $3 million and a market value of $15 million.

months ended June 30, 1999, were $65 million and $41 million, respectively, and
