Earnings Release

KeyCorp Reports First Quarter 2019 Net Income Of $386 Million, Or $.38 Per Common Share

CLEVELAND, April 18, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- KeyCorp (NYSE: KEY) today announced net income from continuing operations attributable to Key common shareholders of $386 million, or $.38 per common share for the first quarter of 2019, compared to $459 million, or $.45 per common share, for the fourth quarter of 2018 and $402 million, or $.38 per common share, for the first quarter of 2018. Key's first quarter of 2019 results included a net impact of $.02 per common share relating to efficiency initiative expenses. Notable items resulting in a net impact of $.03 per common share were reported in the fourth quarter of 2018, and no notable items were reported in the first quarter of 2018.

"Our results this quarter reflect solid underlying trends in our core businesses, strong expense management and continued strength in credit quality. Revenue benefitted from continued balance sheet growth, including an 8% increase in commercial and industrial loans from the same period last year, and a 5% increase in average deposits. Fee income this quarter declined, primarily due to lower capital markets income, driven by both seasonality and the timing in closing certain transactions. We continued to execute against our continuous improvement plans across the company, driving a meaningful reduction in our expenses, down 7%, excluding notable items, from the year-ago period. Importantly, we remain confident in reaching our targeted cash efficiency ratio of 54% to 56% in the second half of 2019.

We have also continued to use our strong capital position to support organic growth and return capital to our shareholders. This morning, we announced our capital plans, beginning in third quarter of 2019. These plans include a 9% increase in our common share dividend, from $.17 to $.185, in the third quarter of this year, subject to approval of our Board of Directors. We plan to repurchase up to $1 billion in common shares over the same period.

Additionally, we completed our acquisition of Laurel Road Bank's digital business earlier this month. Laurel Road's platform enhances our digital capabilities and aligns well with our relationship strategy, to build broad-based relationships with targeted clients and prospects. We are excited to have found a firm that so clearly matches our business and cultural approach to serving clients."

TE = Taxable Equivalent

Taxable-equivalent net interest income was $985 million for the first quarter of 2019, compared to taxable-equivalent net interest income of $952 million for the first quarter of 2018. The increase in net interest income reflects the benefit from higher interest rates and higher earning asset balances, partially offset by a decline in purchase accounting accretion and lower loan fees. First quarter 2019 net interest income included $22 million of purchase accounting accretion, a decline of $11 million from the first quarter of 2018.

Compared to the fourth quarter of 2018, taxable-equivalent net interest income decreased by $23 million. The decline was driven by two fewer days in the first quarter of 2019 and a decline in loan fees.

Total noninterest income	$	536	$	645	$	601	(16.9)	%	(10.8)	%

Key's noninterest income was $536 million for the first quarter of 2019, compared to $601 million for the year-ago quarter. The decline was largely due to lower investment banking and debt placement fees of $33 million, reflecting market disruption from the government shutdown early in the quarter, as well as the timing of closing certain transactions. Trust and investment services income declined, primarily related to the sale of Key Insurance and Benefits Services in May of 2018, which contributed $15 million in the first quarter of 2018. Partially offsetting these declines were increases in cards and payments income and operating lease income and other leasing gains.

Compared to the fourth quarter of 2018, noninterest income decreased by $109 million, largely due to expected seasonality, as well as the timing of closing certain transactions. Both of these factors primarily impacted investment banking and debt placement fees, which declined $76 million from the prior quarter. Other income decreased $23 million, primarily related to market-related gains in the prior period, compared to market-related losses in the current quarter. Seasonal factors drove declines in corporate-owned life insurance and cards and payments income. Partially offsetting these declines was an increase of $9 million in operating lease income and other leasing gains.

Noninterest Expense

Personnel expense	$	563	$	576	$	594	(2.3)	%	(5.2)	%
Nonpersonnel expense	400		436		412		(8.3)		(2.9)
Total noninterest expense	$	963	$	1,012	$	1,006	(4.8)	%	(4.3)	%

Key's noninterest expense was $963 million for the first quarter of 2019, compared to $1.0 billion in the year-ago quarter. The decline was largely the result of Key's efficiency initiative efforts across the franchise. Personnel expense declined $31 million compared to the year-ago period, driven by lower salaries expense, incentive compensation, and employee benefits costs, and was partially offset by higher severance expense related to efficiency initiative actions taken during the quarter. Nonpersonnel expense declined, largely related to lower FDIC assessment expense, which reflected the elimination of the FDIC quarterly surcharge.

Compared to the fourth quarter of 2018, noninterest expense decreased by $49 million. Lower personnel expense reflected declines in salaries expense and incentive compensation, partially offset by a seasonal increase in employee benefits expense. Lower nonpersonnel expense was driven by a $13 million decline in other expense, as well as lower operating lease expense and seasonally lower marketing costs. Both reporting periods included notable items impacting noninterest expense. The fourth quarter of 2018 included efficiency initiative expenses of $24 million and a $17 million pension settlement charge (reported in other expense), while notable items for the first quarter of 2019 included $26 million of efficiency initiative expenses.

Total loans	$	89,649	$	89,288	$	86,927	.4	%	3.1	%


(a)	Commercial and industrial average loan balances include $133 million, $132 million, and $120 million of assets from commercial credit cards at March 31, 2019, December 31, 2018, and March 31, 2018, respectively.

Average loans were $89.6 billion for the first quarter of 2019, an increase of $2.7 billion compared to the first quarter of 2018, reflecting broad-based growth in commercial and industrial loans and growth in indirect auto lending, partially offset by continued paydowns in home equity lines of credit.

Compared to the fourth quarter of 2018, average loans increased by $361 million, driven by growth in commercial and industrial loans, partly offset by declines in commercial mortgage and construction loans. Consumer loans were relatively stable from the prior quarter, as growth in auto lending offset the decline in home equity lines of credit.

N/A = Not Applicable

Average deposits totaled $107.6 billion for the first quarter of 2019, an increase of $5 billion compared to the year-ago quarter, reflecting growth in higher-yielding deposit products, as well as strength in Key's retail banking franchise and growth from commercial relationships.

Compared to the fourth quarter of 2018, average deposits decreased by $376 million, primarily driven by short-term and seasonal deposit outflows, which more than offset growth from the penetration of existing retail and commercial relationships.

N/A = Not Applicable

Key's provision for credit losses was $62 million for the first quarter of 2019, compared to $61 million for the first quarter of 2018 and $59 million for the fourth quarter of 2018. Key's allowance for loan and lease losses was $883 million, or .98% of total period-end loans at March 31, 2019, compared to 1.00% at March 31, 2018, and .99% at December 31, 2018.

Net loan charge-offs for the first quarter of 2019 totaled $64 million, or .29% of average total loans. These results compare to $54 million, or .25%, for the first quarter of 2018, and $60 million, or .27%, for the fourth quarter of 2018.

At March 31, 2019, Key's nonperforming loans totaled $548 million, which represented .61% of period-end portfolio loans. These results compare to .61% at March 31, 2018, and .61% at December 31, 2018. Nonperforming assets at March 31, 2019, totaled $597 million, and represented .66% of period-end portfolio loans and OREO and other nonperforming assets. These results compare to .65% at March 31, 2018, and .64% at December 31, 2018.

CAPITAL

Key's estimated risk-based capital ratios included in the following table continued to exceed all "well-capitalized" regulatory benchmarks at March 31, 2019.

(a)	3/31/2019 ratio is estimated.
(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. See below for further information on the Regulatory Capital Rules.

Key's capital position remained strong in the first quarter of 2019. As shown in the preceding table, at March 31, 2019, Key's estimated Common Equity Tier 1 and Tier 1 risk-based capital ratios stood at 9.84% and 10.97%, respectively. Key's tangible common equity ratio was 8.43% at March 31, 2019.

As a "standardized approach" banking organization, Key's mandatory compliance with the final Basel III capital framework for U.S. banking organizations (the "Regulatory Capital Rules") began on January 1, 2015, subject to transitional provisions. Key's estimated Common Equity Tier 1 ratio as calculated under the fully phased-in Regulatory Capital Rules was 9.75% at March 31, 2019. This estimate exceeds the fully phased-in required minimum Common Equity Tier 1 and Capital Conservation Buffer of 7.00%.

Consistent with Key's 2018 Capital Plan, during the first quarter of 2019, Key declared a dividend of $.17 per common share and completed $199 million of common share repurchases. Key's remaining share repurchase authorization consistent with the 2018 Capital Plan (which continues through the second quarter of 2019) is $206 million.

Key also announced 2019 planned capital actions (3Q19-2Q20). Plans include a common share repurchase program of up to $1 billion, as well as a 9% increase in the common share dividend, from $.17 to $.185 per common share, in the third quarter of 2019, subject to Board approval.

LINE OF BUSINESS RESULTS

In early 2019, Key underwent a company-wide organizational change, resulting in the realignment of its businesses into Consumer and Commercial segments (which were historically reported as Key Community Bank and Key Corporate Bank segments). The business realignment has now been reflected in segment reporting as of the first quarter of 2019, and prior periods presented have been restated to conform to this realignment. The Consumer Bank includes Key's Retail, Home Lending, Business Banking, and Private Banking businesses and primarily serves clients in Key's 15-state branch footprint. The Commercial Bank includes footprint-based middle market clients (previously reported in Key Community Bank), Real Estate Capital, Institutional Bank and Key Equipment Finance business. These businesses primarily focus on serving the needs of middle market clients in Key's geographies, as well as seven industry sectors: consumer, energy, healthcare, industrial, public sector, real estate, and technology. For more information, a detailed discussion of the business segments will be included in Key's forthcoming First Quarter 2019 Form 10-Q.

The following table shows the contribution made by each major business segment to Key's taxable-equivalent revenue from continuing operations and income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to Key for the periods presented. For more detailed financial information pertaining to each business segment, see the tables at the end of this release.

Consumer Bank Summary of Operations (1Q19 vs. 1Q18)

Net income of $164 million for the first quarter of 2019 is an increase of $33 million, or 25.2%, from the year-ago quarter
Taxable-equivalent net interest income increased by $41 million, or 7.4%, from the first quarter of 2018. The increase in net interest income was primarily driven by strong growth in deposits
Average loans and leases decreased $244 million, or 0.8%. This is largely driven by a $854 million, or 7.3%, decline in home equity balances, which is in line with industry trends. This decline in home equity balances was partially offset by growth in indirect auto loans
Average deposits increased $3.9 billion, or 5.7%, driven by growth in money market and certificates of deposit, reflecting strength in Key's relationship strategy
Net loan charge-offs decreased $1 million, or 2.9%, from the first quarter of 2018, as overall credit quality remained stable
Noninterest income decreased $15 million, or 6.6%, from the year-ago quarter driven by lower service charges on deposit accounts
Noninterest expense decreased $29 million, or 5.0%, from the year-ago quarter demonstrating strong expense management and the elimination of the FDIC quarterly surcharge

Commercial Bank Summary of Operations (1Q19 vs. 1Q18)

Net income attributable to Key of $253 million for the first quarter of 2019, compared to $276 million for the year-ago quarter
Taxable-equivalent net interest income decreased by $6 million, or 1.5%, compared to the first quarter of 2018, driven by lower purchase accounting accretion and loan spread compression
Average loan and lease balances increased $3.1 billion, or 5.7%, compared to the first quarter of 2018 driven by broad-based growth in commercial and industrial loans
Average deposit balances increased $1.6 billion, or 5.0%, compared to the first quarter of 2018, driven by growth in core deposits
Noninterest income decreased $25 million, or 7.7%, from the prior year. The decline was largely due to lower investment banking and debt placement fees and corporate services income, which reflected less favorable market conditions. This decrease was partially offset by higher core business growth
Provision for credit losses decreased $13 million compared to the first quarter of 2018, as credit quality remained stable
Noninterest expense decreased by $14 million, or 3.7%, from the first quarter of 2019. The decline reflects the benefit of efficiency initiatives, strong expense discipline, and the elimination of the FDIC quarterly surcharge

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," "Common Equity Tier 1," "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. Traditionally, the banking regulators have assessed bank and bank holding company capital adequacy based on both the amount and the composition of capital, the calculation of which is prescribed in federal banking regulations. In October 2013, the federal banking regulators published the final Basel III capital framework for U.S. banking organizations (the "Regulatory Capital Rules"). The Regulatory Capital Rules require higher and better-quality capital and introduced a new capital measure, "Common Equity Tier 1," a non-GAAP financial measure. The mandatory compliance date for Key as a "standardized approach" banking organization began on January 1, 2015, subject to transitional provisions.

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.
