Exhibit 99.1 City National Corporation Reports Record Earnings of $57.7 Million, or $1.13 Per Share; Second-Quarter Revenue and Net Income Rise 11 Percent LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 20, 2005-- Conference Call: Today 2:00 p.m. PDT, 800.573.4842, Pass Code 55871547 City National Corporation (NYSE:CYN), parent company of wholly owned City National Bank, today reported second-quarter net income of $57.7 million, an increase of 11 percent from the same period last year and 4 percent from the first quarter of 2005. Earnings per share reached $1.13, up 10 percent from the second quarter of 2004 and 4 percent from the first quarter of this year. Year to date, City National has earned net income of $113.2 million, or $2.22 per share. HIGHLIGHTS -- Second-quarter revenue rose 11 percent over the second quarter of 2004. -- Average loans grew to $8.8 billion, up 9 percent from the second quarter of 2004. -- Credit quality was again strong. Nonaccrual loans fell to $22.2 million, a 47 percent decline from June 30, 2004. The company required no provision for credit losses, remaining adequately reserved at 1.66 percent of total loans. -- Average deposits for the second quarter reached $11.7 billion, up 5 percent from the same period last year. -- The second-quarter net interest margin was 4.73 percent, compared with 4.49 percent for the same period last year, and 4.75 percent for the first quarter of 2005. "City National performed well in the second quarter," said Chief Executive Officer Russell Goldsmith. "Double-digit revenue, income and EPS growth primarily reflect encouraging growth in loans and net interest income, excellent credit quality and further increases in our wealth management and other noninterest income. With rising interest rates, a solid California economy, a growing organization and our successful leadership transition in this quarter, City National is well-positioned to achieve its goals in 2005 and beyond."

ASSETS Total assets at June 30, 2005 reached $14.5 billion, up 7 percent from the second quarter of last year, primarily because of loan growth. Total assets grew 4 percent from the first quarter of 2005. REVENUE Second-quarter revenue (net interest income plus noninterest income) grew to $201 million, up 11 percent from the second quarter of 2004 and 2 percent from the first quarter of this year. NET INTEREST INCOME Fully taxable-equivalent net interest income reached $152.7 million, a 13 percent increase over the second quarter of 2004, and 2 percent higher than the first quarter of this year. Net interest income increased approximately $3 million from the first quarter of this year, even though City National's net interest margin declined 2 basis points. The margin narrowed primarily because average loans grew faster than average deposits and the yield on the company's securities portfolio fell 13 basis points. The bank's prime rate was 6.25 percent on June 30, up from 4.25 percent at the same time last year, and 5.75 percent on March 31, 2005. For the For the three three months months ended % ended % Dollars in millions June 30, Change March 31, Change 2005 2004 2005 - ----------------------- ---------- ---------- ------ ---------- ------ Average Loans $8,762.4 $8,053.9 9 $8,585.2 2 Average Securities 4,071.5 3,601.0 13 4,115.4 (1) Average Earning Assets 12,950.3 12,137.3 7 12,798.5 1 Average Deposits 11,678.5 11,121.5 5 11,572.4 1 Average Core Deposits 10,781.6 10,310.7 5 10,628.3 1 Fully Taxable- Equivalent Net Interest Income 152.7 135.6 13 149.9 2 Net Interest Margin 4.73 % 4.49 % 5 4.75 % (0) Second-quarter average loan balances increased 9 percent over the same period last year. Residential mortgage loans grew 16 percent, while commercial loans and commercial real estate mortgage loans each rose 6 percent. Real estate construction loans fell 5 percent, primarily as the result of accelerated repayments due to the fast pace of new home sales and early refinancing by income property developers taking advantage of low interest rates. Compared with the first quarter of this year, average loans increased in all categories except real estate construction. Year to date, the company's average loan balances increased 9 percent over the first six months of 2004. Total loan balances at June 30, 2005 were $300 million higher than they were at March 31, 2005, reflecting the growth of commercial lending and most real estate-related loan categories. City National's average deposits reached $11.7 billion in the second quarter, up 5 percent from the same period last year and 1 percent from the first quarter of 2005. Period-end deposits were 3 percent higher than they were at March 31 of this year. Year to date, the company's average deposits grew 7 percent over the first six months of 2004. As part of its long-standing asset-liability management strategy, the company uses "plain-vanilla" interest-rate swaps to hedge loans, deposits and borrowings. The notional value of these swaps was $1.4 billion at June 30, 2005, up $0.3 billion from the second quarter of last year but unchanged from the first quarter of this year. NONINTEREST INCOME Second-quarter 2005 noninterest income of $51.4 million was 6 percent higher than the second quarter of 2004, due primarily to higher trust and investment fees. Noninterest income was 26 percent of total revenue in the second quarter of 2005, unchanged from the second quarter of last year and the first quarter of this year. Wealth Management Trust and investment fees increased 18 percent over the second quarter of 2004, due primarily to an increase in balances under management or administration. Assets under direct management grew more than 18 percent from the same period last year, largely as the result of new business, a strong relative investment performance and higher market values. Increases in market values are reflected in fee income primarily on a trailing-quarter basis.

International service fees for the second quarter of 2005 grew 17 percent from the same period last year and 21 percent from the first quarter of this year. Behind this growth were sharp increases in the demand for foreign exchange and standby letters of credit. Other income was 15 percent higher in the second quarter of 2005 than it was for the same period one year ago. However, it fell 11 percent from the first quarter of 2005, reflecting a decline in the fees collected for participating mortgage loans and other loan-related services. In the second quarter of 2005, the company recorded $1 million in gains on the sale of assets and securities, compared with gains of $0.9 million for the second quarter of 2004 and $0.3 million in for the first quarter of this year. NONINTEREST EXPENSE Second-quarter noninterest expense amounted to $109 million, up 12 percent from the same period last year and 1 percent from the first quarter of 2005. Noninterest expense is up 13 percent year to date. Legal and professional fees increased $3.4 million, or 47 percent, from the second quarter of 2004 and 24 percent from the first quarter of this year. These increases reflect costs associated with the company's commitment to further strengthen compliance with the Bank Secrecy Act and the USA Patriot Act. Staffing expenses were 8 percent higher than they were one year ago, due to the addition of new sales, business development, regulatory compliance and risk management personnel. However, these expenses fell 4 percent from the first quarter of 2005. The company's second-quarter efficiency ratio was 53.39 percent, compared with 52.72 percent for the second quarter of 2004, and 54.10 percent for the first quarter of this year. CREDIT QUALITY For the eighth consecutive quarter, City National made no provision for credit losses. This decision reflected strong credit quality, management's ongoing assessment of the loan portfolio, loan growth and an improving economic environment. Net loan recoveries in the second quarter amounted to $1.2 million, compared with $0.04 million for the second quarter of 2004 and $0.20 million for the first quarter of this year. Nonaccrual loans at June 30, 2005 were $22.2 million, down 47 percent from June 30, 2004 and 26 percent from March 31, 2005. They now amount to 25 basis points of total loans. At June 30, 2005 the allowance for loan losses was $148 million or 1.66 percent of total loans. The reserve for unfunded credit commitments was $13.8 million. INCOME TAXES The company's effective tax rate for the second quarter was 37.3 percent, compared with 37.4 percent for all of 2004. As previously reported, the California Franchise Tax Board has taken the position that certain real estate investment trust and registered investment company tax deductions shall be disallowed under California law adopted in the fourth quarter of 2003. While management continues to believe that the tax benefits realized in previous years were appropriate, the company deemed it prudent to participate in the statutory Voluntary Compliance Initiative-Option 2, requiring payment of all California taxes and interest on the disputed 2000-through-2002 tax years, and permitting the company to claim a refund for these years while avoiding certain potential penalties. City National has elected to proceed with its claim for refund as allowed by law. The company's strategic and financial positions remain unchanged from the first quarter of this year. Its receivable related to the disputed taxes is $23.7 million, net of previously established reserves. CAPITAL LEVELS The company remains well-capitalized. Total risk-based capital and Tier 1 risk-based capital ratios at June 30, 2005 were 15.45 percent and 11.91 percent, compared with the minimum regulatory standards of 10 percent and 6 percent, respectively, for "well-capitalized" institutions. The company's Tier 1 leverage ratio at June 30, 2005 was 8.39 percent, well above the regulatory minimum ratio of 5 percent. At March 31, 2005 total risk-based capital, Tier 1 risk-based capital and the Tier 1 leverage ratios were 15.27 percent, 11.69 percent and 8.12 percent, respectively. Shareholders' equity to assets at June 30, 2005 was 9.68 percent, compared with 9.10 percent at the same time last year and 9.49 percent at March 31 of this year. The accumulated other comprehensive loss at June 30, 2005 was $12.9 million, compared with $38.4 million at the same time last year and $43.3 million at March 31, 2005. The average duration of total available-for-sale securities at June 30 was 3.1 years, compared with 3.8 years at the same time last year and 3.5 years at March 31, 2005.
