KeyCorp Reports Record Second Quarter 2021 Net Income Of $698 Million, Or $.72 Per Diluted Common Share

CLEVELAND, July 20, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- KeyCorp (NYSE: KEY) today announced net income from continuing operations attributable to Key common shareholders of $698 million, or $.72 per diluted common share for the second quarter of 2021. This compared to $591 million, or $.61 per diluted common share, for the first quarter of 2021 and $159 million, or $.16 per diluted common share, for the second quarter of 2020.

Our results this quarter reflect the success of our productive, client-centric team, strong risk management practices, and momentum from recent investments in both our teammates and digital capabilities.

We generated record second quarter revenue, driven by growth in both our commercial and consumer businesses, as we acquired and deepened relationships across our franchise. Our fee-based businesses reported another strong quarter, with noninterest income up 8% year-over-year. Our investment banking business generated record fees for the second quarter. Furthermore, our investment banking revenue in the second quarter represents the second-highest quarter in our history. With broad-based growth across our targeted industry verticals and continued investments in our teammates, our investment banking business has delivered a decade of consistent growth.

Credit quality remained strong this quarter, with lower nonperforming loans and net charge-offs as a percent of loans of 9 basis points. Our positive credit trends reflect our strong risk culture and disciplined underwriting practices. Our capital position also continues to be one of our strengths, with a Common Equity Tier 1 ratio of 9.9% at the end of the quarter. Earlier this month, our Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase authorization of up to $1.5 billion and will evaluate an increase to the common stock dividend in the fourth quarter 2021.

INCOME STATEMENT HIGHLIGHTS

Total revenue	$	1,773	$	1,750	$	1,717	1.3	%	3.3	%

TE = Taxable Equivalent

Taxable-equivalent net interest income was $1.0 billion for the second quarter of 2021, a decrease of $2 million from the second quarter of 2020. The decrease in net interest income reflects a decrease in the net interest margin, largely offset by higher earning asset balances. The net interest margin was impacted by lower interest rates and a change in balance sheet mix, including elevated levels of liquidity.

Compared to the first quarter of 2021, taxable-equivalent net interest income increased by $11 million, and the net interest margin decreased by 9 basis points. Both net interest income and the net interest margin were impacted by higher earning asset balances, including elevated levels of liquidity, lower interest-bearing deposit costs, and higher loan fees from the Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP") forgiveness, partially offset by lower earning asset yields. Net interest income also benefited from one additional day in the second quarter of 2021.

Other income	13		51		33		(74.5)		(60.6)
Total noninterest income	$	750	$	738	$	692	1.6	%	8.4	%

Compared to the second quarter of 2020, noninterest income increased by $58 million, primarily driven by a $61 million increase in investment banking and debt placement fees. Commercial mortgage servicing fees increased $32 million. Additionally, cards and payments income increased $22 million, reflecting broad-based growth across credit, debit, and merchant product categories. Partially offsetting these increases were consumer mortgage income and other income, which decreased $36 million and $20 million, respectively.

Compared to the first quarter of 2021, noninterest income increased by $12 million. The largest driver of the quarter-over-quarter increase was a $55 million increase in investment banking and debt placement fees, reflecting broad-based growth in all areas. Commercial mortgage servicing fees and service charges on deposit accounts both increased $10 million. Partially offsetting these increases were a $38 million decrease in other income, reflecting market-related valuation adjustments, and a $21 million decrease in consumer mortgage income.

Noninterest Expense

Personnel expense	$	623	$	624	$	572	(.2)	%	8.9	%

Total noninterest expense	$	1,076	$	1,071	$	1,013	.5	%	6.2	%

Key's noninterest expense was $1.1 billion for the second quarter of 2021, an increase of $63 million from the year-ago period. The increase is primarily related to higher personnel costs of $51 million, reflecting higher incentive and stock-based compensation, attributed to an increase in revenue and stock performance and an increase in employee benefits. Additionally, other drivers for the year-over-year increase include higher computer processing expense and marketing expense.

Compared to the first quarter of 2021, noninterest expense increased $5 million. Incentive and stock-based compensation increased $14 million, reflecting Key's strong investment banking performance, offset by a $15 million decrease in employee benefits.

Average loans were $100.8 billion for the second quarter of 2021, a decrease of $7.1 billion compared to the second quarter of 2020. Commercial loans decreased $9.5 billion, reflecting decreased utilization versus the year-ago period, partly offset by growth in PPP loans. Consumer loans increased $2.4 billion, reflecting strength from Laurel Road and Key's consumer mortgage business, partly offset by Key's exit from the indirect auto lending business.

Compared to the first quarter of 2021, average loans increased by $86 million. Commercial loans declined due to lower commercial utilization rates, partly offset by growth in PPP loans. Consumer loans continue to reflect strength from Key's consumer mortgage business, partly offset by Key's exit from the indirect auto lending business.

Compared to the first quarter of 2021, average deposits increased by $6.6 billion, primarily driven by broad-based commercial growth and higher consumer balances.

Key's provision for credit losses was a net benefit of $222 million, including a $244 million reserve release for the second quarter of 2021, compared to an expense of $482 million in the second quarter of 2020 and a net benefit of $93 million in the first quarter of 2021. The reserve release was largely driven by a continued improvement in the economic outlook.

Net loan charge-offs for the second quarter of 2021 totaled $22 million, or .09% of average total loans. These results compare to $96 million, or .36%, for the second quarter of 2020 and $114 million, or .46%, for the first quarter of 2021. Key's allowance for credit losses was $1.4 billion, or 1.36% of total period-end loans at June 30, 2021, compared to 1.80% at June 30, 2020, and 1.60% at March 31, 2021.

At June 30, 2021, Key's nonperforming loans totaled $694 million, which represented .69% of period-end portfolio loans. These results compare to .72% at June 30, 2020, and .72% at March 31, 2021. Nonperforming assets at June 30, 2021, totaled $738 million, and represented .73% of period-end portfolio loans and OREO and other nonperforming assets. These results compare to .89% at June 30, 2020, and .78% at March 31, 2021.

CAPITAL

Key's estimated risk-based capital ratios included in the following table continued to exceed all "well-capitalized" regulatory benchmarks at June 30, 2021.

Leverage ^(a)	8.7		8.9		8.8

(a)	June 30, 2021 ratio is estimated and reflects Key's election to adopt the CECL optional transition provision.
(b)	The table entitled "GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations" in the attached financial supplement presents the computations of certain financial measures related to "tangible common equity." The table reconciles the GAAP performance measures to the corresponding non-GAAP measures, which provides a basis for period-to-period comparisons.

Key's capital position remained strong in the second quarter of 2021. As shown in the preceding table, at June 30, 2021, Key's estimated Common Equity Tier 1 and Tier 1 risk-based capital ratios stood at 9.9% and 11.3%, respectively. Key's tangible common equity ratio was 7.4% at June 30, 2021.

Key has elected the CECL phase-in option provided by regulatory guidance which delays for two years the estimated impact of CECL on regulatory capital and phases it in over three years beginning in 2022. On a fully phased-in basis, Key's Common Equity Tier 1 ratio would be reduced by 20 basis points.

Reconciling items also includes intercompany eliminations and certain items that are not allocated to the business segments because they do not reflect their normal operations.

Consumer Bank Summary of Operations (2Q21 vs. 2Q20)

Net income attributable to Key of $259 million for the second quarter of 2021, compared to $98 million for the year-ago quarter
Taxable-equivalent net interest income increased by $11 million, or 1.9%, compared to the second quarter of 2020, driven by strong consumer mortgage balance sheet growth and fees related to PPP loans, partially offset by the lower interest rate environment
Average loans and leases increased $3.3 billion, or 8.8%, driven by growth in consumer mortgage and benefit from the PPP
Average deposits increased $9.2 billion, or 11.6%, from the second quarter of 2020, driven by retention of consumer stimulus payments and relationship growth
Provision for credit losses decreased $225 million, compared to the second quarter of 2020. The provision for credit losses was a net benefit and was driven by expected improvements in economic conditions and continued strength in client credit quality
Noninterest income increased $8 million, or 3.3%, from the year ago quarter, driven by higher trust and investment services income and client spend activity, partially offset by lower consumer mortgage income, due to lower gain on sale volume
Noninterest expense increased $32 million, or 5.8%, from the year ago quarter, driven by higher variable compensation and support expenses related to higher loan volumes

GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations

(dollars in millions)

The table below presents certain non-GAAP financial measures related to "tangible common equity," "return on average tangible common equity," "pre-provision net revenue," and "cash efficiency ratio."

The tangible common equity ratio and the return on average tangible common equity ratio have been a focus for some investors, and management believes these ratios may assist investors in analyzing Key's capital position without regard to the effects of intangible assets and preferred stock.

The table also shows the computation for pre-provision net revenue, which is not formally defined by GAAP. Management believes that eliminating the effects of the provision for credit losses makes it easier to analyze the results by presenting them on a more comparable basis.

The cash efficiency ratio is a ratio of two non-GAAP performance measures. As such, there is no directly comparable GAAP performance measure. The cash efficiency ratio performance measure removes the impact of Key's intangible asset amortization from the calculation. Management believes this ratio provide greater consistency and comparability between Key's results and those of its peer banks. Additionally, this ratio is used by analysts and investors as they develop earnings forecasts and peer bank analysis.

Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied, and are not audited. Although these non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by investors to evaluate a company, they have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for analyses of results as reported under GAAP.

(a)

Restructured loans (i.e., troubled debt restructuring) are those for which Key, for reasons related to a borrower's financial difficulties, grants a concession to the borrower that it would not otherwise consider. These concessions are made to improve the collectability of the loan and generally take the form of a reduction of the interest rate, extension of the maturity date or reduction in the principal balance.
