FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


             BANK ONE CORPORATION ANNOUNCES THIRD QUARTER RESULTS

CHICAGO, OCTOBER 22, 1998  BANK ONE CORPORATION (NYSE: ONE) today announced the
third quarter earnings for its two predecessor companies, BANC ONE CORPORATION
and First Chicago NBD Corporation.  BANK ONE was created on October 2, 1998, by
the combination of the two predecessor companies.

On a combined basis, BANK ONE CORPORATION results for the third quarter were net
income of $1.054 billion, or $0.89 per diluted share.  Compared with results for
the year-ago quarter, net income and per diluted share were up 24 percent and 27
percent, respectively.  On a combined basis, third quarter return on common
equity was 20.7 percent.  Combined nine month net income was $2.882 billion, or
$2.42 per diluted share, with a 19.9 percent return on common equity.

"The financial results of these two great companies demonstrate our commitment
to disciplined risk management and a focus on improving operating efficiency,"
stated Verne G. Istock, Chairman of the Board.  "The benefit of our diversified
earnings streams was evidenced in that the recent disruptions in the capital
markets did not have a major impact on overall results."

"This quarter's results reflected continued momentum in a number of our key
businesses," said John B. McCoy, President and Chief Executive Officer.  "With
our excellent progress integrating these two companies, we remain very
encouraged about our prospects for producing the superior long-term returns
investors expect."

BANC ONE's net income for the third quarter was $648 million, or $0.91 per
diluted share, up 39 percent and 40 percent, respectively, from the 1997 third
quarter.  Return on common equity was 21.8 percent, up from 17.5 percent in the
year-ago period.  For the nine months, net income was $1.683 billion, or $2.36
per diluted share, up from $924 million and $1.30 per diluted share,
respectively.

First Chicago NBD's net income was $405 million for the third quarter, or $1.38
per diluted share, up 5 percent and 10 percent, respectively, from the year-ago
quarter.  Return on common equity was 19.0 percent, essentially unchanged from
the 1997 third quarter.  For the 

                                       1
<PAGE>
 
nine months, net income was $1.196 billion, or $4.06 per diluted share, up 5
percent and 12 percent, respectively, from the same year-ago period.

BANK ONE CORPORATION is headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, and is the nation's
fifth largest bank holding company with assets of more than $235 billion. BANK
ONE is a major commercial bank nationally and the leading business bank in the
Midwest and Arizona.  Additional businesses include the nation's largest credit
card company, the leading retail bank in eight states, the third-largest bank
mutual fund company, and a presence in selected international markets.

The 1998 third quarter results that follow are for BANC ONE and First Chicago
NBD separately.


                                    BANC ONE

1998 Third Quarter Highlights

 .  Earnings per share grew 31 percent from last year, excluding $69 million in
   branch sale gains in the current quarter.

 .  Managed net interest income was up 8 percent and net interest margin expanded
   to 6.59 percent.

 .  Credit quality continued to improve with the managed net charge-off ratio
   declining from second quarter levels.

 .  Credit card spreads were wider and losses lower, offsetting the impact of
   slower balance growth.

 .  The managed efficiency ratio improved to 51 percent from 53 percent during
   the quarter.

The third quarter's results included a $69 million ($0.06 per share) pre-tax
gain on branch sales.  Excluding this gain, earnings per diluted share were
$0.85 for the third quarter, up 31 percent from $0.65 in the 1997 third quarter.

Portions of the following discussion are on a managed basis in order to better
describe underlying operating trends.  Managed information has been adjusted to
include credit card loans that have been securitized and removed from the
balance sheet.  The net revenue on securitized credit card loans are
reclassified from noninterest income to net interest income and provision for
loan losses as if the securitization had not occurred.

Net Interest Income and Margin

Managed net interest income on a tax equivalent basis in the third quarter was
$2.284 billion, up $165 million, or 8 percent, from 1997's third quarter.
Improvements in the yield on credit card loans and the mix of earning assets
were the primary drivers of the net interest income growth.  The third quarter's
managed net interest income rose $78 million, or 14 percent on 

                                       2
<PAGE>
 
an annualized basis, from the second quarter of this year, also related to the
higher yield on credit card loans and the improved earning asset mix.

The managed net interest margin was 6.59 percent in the 1998 third quarter, up
from 6.21 percent in the year-ago quarter and 6.34 percent in the second
quarter.  The yield on earning assets increased to 10.87 percent in the third
quarter from 10.52 percent in 1997's third quarter and 10.60 percent in the
second quarter while the cost of interest bearing liabilities remained stable.

Excluding the continued planned run-off in selected residential and commercial
real estate portfolios, and adjusting for the impact of portfolio sales and
purchases, average managed targeted loans increased 10 percent from the year-ago
quarter.  Consumer and credit card loans increased 14 percent and 10 percent,
respectively, and commercial loans increased 6 percent.  Compared with the
second quarter, average managed targeted loans increased at an 8 percent
annualized rate, led by a 14 percent annualized rate in consumer loans and 10
percent annualized rate in credit cards.  At the end of the third quarter a $4.9
billion credit card portfolio was acquired from Chevy Chase Bank FSB that will
significantly increase average managed credit card balances in the 1998 fourth
quarter.  The third quarter also represented another significant new credit card
account generation period as some 2.2 million new accounts were opened, up from
2.0 million in the 1998 second quarter. While growth of credit card loans has
slowed in recent quarters, this has been more than offset by wider spreads and a
decline in the net charge-off ratio.  At quarter-end, managed credit cards loans
totaled $48.0 billion with 47.5 million cardmembers.

Average deposits were $81.6 billion in the third quarter.  Excluding the effect
of branch sales during the year that included deposits of $3.2 billion, deposits
were up 2 percent from the year-ago period.

Noninterest Income

Managed noninterest income was $931 million in the third quarter and included
pre-tax gains on branch sales of $69 million, primarily related to divestitures
required in the First Commerce acquisition.  In 1997's third quarter, managed
noninterest income was $860 million.  Other managed noninterest income increased
slightly, reflecting the impact of market conditions on market driven revenues,
specifically venture capital and brokerage activity.

Noninterest income was $1.330 billion, up 9 percent from the year-ago quarter on
a reported basis, excluding the current quarter's gains on branch sales.  This
increase primarily reflected stronger credit card fee income including $61
million of gains on $3.4 billion of net new securitizations during the current
quarter.

Noninterest Expense

For the third quarter, noninterest expense was $1.634 billion, up 1 percent from
the year-ago quarter. Third quarter expenses increased at less than a 2 percent
annualized rate from the 

                                       3
<PAGE>
 
second quarter excluding $182 million of one-time costs related to the First
Commerce acquisition.

The managed efficiency ratio improved again to 50.9 percent for the third
quarter, from 52.6 percent in the prior quarter and 54.5 percent in the year-ago
quarter.

Provision for Credit Losses and Credit Quality

The managed provision for credit losses was $646 million in the third quarter,
compared with $633 million in 1997's third quarter and $664 million in the
second quarter.  The year over year increase was primarily attributable to
growth in loans.  The decrease in the provision from the second quarter was
driven by improvements in credit quality, particularly the credit card business.

Managed net charge-offs were $646 million, or 2.13 percent of average loans for
the third quarter, compared with $646 million, or 2.22 percent, in 1997's third
quarter and down from $706 million, or 2.36 percent, in this year's second
quarter.  The managed credit card net charge-off ratio declined to 5.16 percent
for the third quarter from 5.75 percent a year ago and 5.84 percent in the
second quarter.  The 90-day delinquency ratio for managed credit card
receivables was 2.07 percent at quarter-end, up slightly from 2.02 percent in
1997's third quarter, but down from 2.18 percent at the end of the second
quarter.

The September 30, 1998 allowance for credit losses was 1.60 percent of loans and
254 percent of nonperforming loans.  Nonperforming assets at quarter end totaled
$633 million and represented 0.75 percent of loans and other real estate owned.

Capital

Capital ratios remained strong.  At September 30, 1998, total common equity to
assets was 10.0 percent, up from 9.3 percent at June 30, 1998, with the tangible
common equity to net assets ratio increasing to 8.7 percent from 8.4 percent.
Tier 1 and total risk-based capital ratios were 9.2 percent and 13.6 percent,
respectively, at September 30, 1998.


                               FIRST CHICAGO NBD

1998 Third Quarter Highlights

 .  Growth in fee-based income for the quarter was 23 percent from the year-ago
   quarter on a managed basis, reflecting strong results from credit card, cash
   management and consumer banking activities.

 .  The managed net interest margin improved to 4.02 percent for the quarter from
   3.95 percent for the second quarter with stabilized pricing in the large
   corporate banking business a major factor.

 .  Operating expense for the third quarter was $906 million.  Excluding the
   impact of a full quarter's expenses for the regional brokerage firm, Roney
   and Company, as well as a one-

                                       4
<PAGE>
 
   time reserve for a specific legal matter, this represented a 5 percent
   increase from the year-ago quarter. The managed efficiency ratio was 50.7
   percent.

 .  Volatility in the financial markets held market-driven revenue to $3 million
   for the quarter, compared with $68 million for the year-ago quarter.

 .  The provision for credit losses on a managed basis was $297 million, down
   from $340 million in the year-ago quarter and $359 million in the second
   quarter. The managed credit card charge-off ratio in the third quarter was
   5.98 percent, down from both 6.80 percent in the year-ago quarter and 6.94
   percent in the second quarter.

Net Interest Income and Margin

Managed net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis was $1.096 billion for the
third quarter, down only 1 percent from a year ago and up 13 percent on an
annualized basis from the second quarter.  Average managed loans grew to $77.7
billion, up 4 percent from the year-ago quarter.  Average managed credit card
receivables were $17.0 billion for the quarter, down slightly from both a year
ago and the prior quarter.

Net interest margin on a managed basis was 4.02 percent for the quarter,
compared with 4.29 percent for the year-ago period, and up from 3.95 percent in
the second quarter.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income on a managed basis was $691 million for the third quarter, up
4 percent from a year ago.

Reflecting the volatility in recent months of financial market conditions,
market-driven revenue for the quarter was $3 million, compared with $68 million
in the year-ago quarter.  Trading activities were essentially break even for the
quarter, compared with profits of $32 million a year ago.  The current quarter
included an unfavorable valuation adjustment in equity securities of $18 million
reflecting the recent downward movement in the equity market.  This compared
with equity securities gains of $28 million in the year-ago period.  Investment
securities gains totaled $21 million, up from $8 million a year ago and $6
million in the second quarter.

Managed credit card fee revenue was $257 million, up 30 percent from $198
million in the year-ago period and up substantially from the second quarter,
partially reflecting repricing.  Fiduciary and investment management fees were
$110 million for the third quarter, up 8 percent from the year-ago quarter.
Service charges and commissions were $290 million for the quarter, a 23 percent
increase from $235 million for the year-ago quarter.

Noninterest Expense

Total operating expense for the third quarter was $906 million, up 9 percent
from the year-ago quarter, but down from $911 million in the prior quarter.
Contributing to the increase from last year were technology-related investments
and credit card marketing expenses.  Excluding Roney and the previously
mentioned legal matter, operating expenses increased 5 percent 

                                       5

<PAGE>
 
from the year-ago period. Second quarter expenses included higher variable costs
and incentive compensation related to fee-generating activities, primarily in
the market-driven area.

The managed operating efficiency ratio for the third quarter was 50.7 percent,
reflecting continued expense discipline.  The reported operating efficiency
ratio was 54.6 percent.

Provision for Credit Losses and Credit Quality

The provision for credit losses on a managed basis was $297 million for the
third quarter, down from $340 million in the year-ago quarter and $359 million
in the second quarter, reflecting declines in managed net charge-offs.  Tighter
credit management policies and improved collection efforts resulted in improved
credit card loss performance.

Total managed net charge-offs for the third quarter totaled $297 million, down
from $340 million a year ago and $359 million in the second quarter.  Managed
credit card net charge-offs declined to $254 million in the quarter from $292
million in the second quarter.  The managed net charge-off ratio for credit
cards was 5.98 percent in the third quarter, down from 6.80 percent in the year-
ago quarter and 6.94 percent in the second quarter.  The 90-day delinquency
ratio for managed credit card receivables was 1.44 percent at quarter-end,
versus 1.80 percent one year ago and 1.46 percent at the end of the second
quarter.

The allowance for credit losses was $1.4 billion at September 30, 1998, and
represented 2.01 percent of period-end loans and 428 percent of nonperforming
loans.  Nonperforming assets were $344 million at September 30, 1998,
representing 0.49 percent of loans and other real estate owned.

Capital

At September 30, 1998, total common equity to assets was 7.2 percent, up from
6.8 percent at June 30, 1998, with the tangible common equity to net assets
ratio increasing to 6.8 percent from 6.4 percent.  Tier 1 and total risk-based
capital ratios were 8.0 percent and 11.3 percent, respectively, at September 30,
1998.
