HOUSEHOLD REPORTS QUARTERLY AND FULL YEAR RECORDS:
FOURTH QUARTER NET INCOME UP 19%, EPS UP 21%;
FULL YEAR INCOME AND EPS UP 23%
PROSPECT HEIGHTS, IL, January 25, 1996 -- Household International (NYSE:
HI) today reported that net income increased 19 percent to $132.3 million for
the fourth quarter of 1995, compared with $111.0 million for the 1994 fourth
quarter. Fully diluted earnings per share rose 21 percent to $1.29, compared
with $1.07 a year earlier. Fourth quarter records were set for both net
income and earnings per share.
Household said full-year net income and earnings per share also
increased to record levels. Full year net income of $453.2 million and
earnings per share of $4.30 were both 23 percent higher than 1994.
William F. Aldinger, chief executive officer and president of Household,
said "We finished the year with a strong quarter, which benefited from
seasonal growth and higher fee income from our credit card business. Our core
receivables were 19 percent higher than a year ago. The focus on our core
products helped improve our net interest margin by 21 basis points in the
quarter and 30 basis points over the prior year quarter. Our efficiency ratio
improved to 50 percent in the fourth quarter and helped drive our record
performance."
Mr. Aldinger continued, "We made significant progress in 1995 in
focusing on our higher return businesses and improving our efficiency. Return
on owned assets improved to 1.34 percent in 1995, a 24 percent increase over
1994's ratio of 1.08 percent and was 1.78 percent during the last quarter of
the year. Return on shareholders' equity increased to 17.4 percent for 1995
from 16 percent for 1994. We expect continuing improvement in our business
in 1996 as a result of the full effect of actions taken this year."
Mr. Aldinger concluded, "We saw increases in our delinquency and
chargeoff ratios during the fourth quarter due to a slowing economy and the
changing mix of our portfolio to more unsecured loans. Losses due to personal
bankruptcies increased in the quarter in the Visa/MasterCard portfolio. The
increases were expected and consistent with our outlook for 1996."
During the fourth quarter the company sold the bulk of its individual
life and annuity products lines of Alexander Hamilton, its life insurance
subsidiary. Assets sold, principally investment securities, totaled $6.1
billion. Household retained its credit life insurance business. During the
fourth quarter, the company also sold its owned and serviced first mortgage
portfolios and deposits of its Canadian Trust operations. This sale will
allow the Canadian operation to focus on its higher return consumer finance
operation and follows the sale of the company's domestic traditional first
mortgage business earlier in 1995. Owned first mortgages sold in the fourth
quarter totaled $825 million. The combination of gains on sale and lost
operating income from the businesses sold did not significantly impact income
in the quarter.
The company said its managed core portfolio of credit cards, home equity
loans and other unsecured consumer loans were up 31 percent, on an annualized
basis, in the seasonally strong fourth quarter. In the fourth quarter, the
company acquired two credit card portfolios totalling $570 million in
receivables. Compared to the prior year, credit card loans were up 22
percent, other unsecured loans increased 24 percent and home equity loans
increased 11 percent.
The company's managed net interest margin was 6.69 percent versus 6.39
percent a year ago and 6.48 percent for the third quarter this year. The
sequential increase was primarily due to product mix changes.
Operating expenses totaled $368 million in the quarter, compared with
$464 million in the year-ago quarter and $404 million in the third quarter of
1995. The 21 percent year-over-year decrease was driven by the sales of<PAGE>
<PAGE> 2
certain businesses and workforce reductions in the core businesses. The
number of employees at December 31 was down 16 percent from a year ago.
Due to the company's focus on improving efficiency and seasonally
stronger revenues in the fourth quarter, the company's efficiency ratio
improved to 49.8 percent, compared to 53.2 percent in the third quarter. In
the year-ago quarter the efficiency ratio was 58.6 percent. For the year, the
efficiency ratio was 53.9 percent, better than the company's previously stated
1995 goal of 55 percent.
Due to the insignificance and liquidating nature of the remaining
individual life insurance business, the company stopped reporting separate
life insurance results. Also, in the fourth quarter, the company reclassified
other secured products from consumer receivables to commercial loans. These
loans represent liquidating portfolios of smaller income property loans that
are now being managed as part of the company's liquidating commercial
business. All prior total credit quality ratios have been restated to reflect
this reclassification. Reported individual product line statistics and total
consumer credit quality trends are unimpacted by this change.
At year-end, two-months-and-over consumer delinquency was 3.46 percent
of managed consumer receivables, compared with 3.26 percent in the third
quarter and 3.11 percent a year ago. Over half of the 20 basis point
increase over the prior quarter related to higher first mortgage delinquency
due to the effect of selling the Canadian first mortgage portfolio, which had
lower delinquency. In addition, shifting the domestic portfolio to a third
party servicer resulted in temporarily higher delinquency on the transferred
portfolio. The remaining increase was in merchant participation and unsecured
loans, while Visa/MasterCard delinquency declined slightly. The increase in
total delinquency was consistent with the company's expectations. The ratio
of reserves to managed receivables equaled 3.22 percent at year-end, up from
2.87 percent at September 30, 1995 and 2.67 percent a year ago. Total
reserves to total nonperforming loans were 111 percent, compared with 105
percent at the end of the third quarter, and 104 percent a year ago. At
year-end, the company's shareholders' equity as a percent of managed assets
equaled 6.74 percent, up from 5.39 percent a year earlier.
Annualized consumer net chargeoffs as a percent of average managed
consumer receivables were 3.28 percent for the quarter, up from 2.97 percent
in the prior quarter and 2.70 percent a year ago. The primary factors
contributing to the 31 basis point increase over the prior quarter were higher
personal bankruptcies in the Visa/MasterCard portfolio (12 bps), the change in
portfolio mix away from traditional first mortgage products including the sale
of the Canadian portfolio (9 bps) and lower recoveries of previously charged
off merchant participation accounts (6 bps). The full-year consumer chargeoff
ratio increased from 2.84 percent in 1994 to 2.95 percent in 1995. The
increases for the full year and fourth quarter were within expectations and
consistent with the company's outlook for 1996.
Household International, through its subsidiaries, is a major provider

MANAGED BASIS INCOME STATEMENT - CONSOLIDATED
Securitizations and sales of consumer receivables are an important source of liquidity and capital management for the
company. The Company continues to service the securitized receivables after such receivables are sold, and retains
a limited recourse obligation. Securitizations impact the classification of revenues and expenses in the income
statement. Net interest margin, non-interest income such as interchange fee income and provision for credit losses
related to receivables sold are reported net in securitization and servicing fee income.
To aid in analysis, the following table shows the pro forma impact on income statement classifications assuming the
receceivables securitized and sold were instead held in portfolio. This pro forma analysis does not adjust the
results to reflect the differences between the company's accounting policies for receivables held in portfolio and
receivables sold and serviced with limited recourse. Accordingly, net income on a pro forma managed basis equals
net income on a historical owned basis.

CREDIT QUALITY/CREDIT LOSS RESERVES
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
In the fourth quarter, the company reclassified other secured products from consumer receivables to commercial loans.
These loans represent liquidating portfolios of smaller income property loans that are now being managed as part of
the company's liquidating commercial business. All prior total credit quality ratios have been restated to reflect
this reclassification. Reported individual product line statistics and total consumer credit quality trends are
unimpacted by this change.
