FINANCIAL INFORMATION
ITEM 1. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. In the opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated financial
statements include all adjustments (which consist of only normal,
recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the consolidated
financial position as of September 30, 1996 and 1995, and the
results of operations for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 1996 and 1995 and cash flows for the nine months
ended September 30, 1996 and 1995. In accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles for interim financial information,
these statements do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for
complete annual financial statements. Financial information as of
December 31, 1995 has been derived from the audited consolidated
financial statements of the Registrant. The results of operations
and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 and
1995 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected
for the full year. For further information, refer to the
consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto for the
year ended December 31, 1995, included in the Registrant's Annual
Report on Form 10-K.
2. The Registrant adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of," effective January 1,
1996. This statement requires that long-lived assets and certain
identifiable intangibles be reviewed for impairment whenever events
or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of
these assets may not be recoverable. The adoption of SFAS No. 121
did not have a material effect on the Consolidated Financial
Statements.
3. The Registrant adopted SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation," effective January 1, 1996. This statement
encourages, but does not require, adoption of a fair-value-based
accounting method for employee stock-based compensation
arrangements. Management has elected to disclose in the 1996
annual Consolidated Financial Statements pro forma net income and
net income per share as if the fair-value-based method had been
applied in measuring compensation cost.
4. SFAS No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial
Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities" was issued in June,
1996 and provides accounting and reporting standards for transfers
and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of
liabilities. SFAS No. 125 applies to transactions occurring after
December 31, 1996. Management has not yet quantified the effect of
this new standard on the Consolidated Financial Statements.
ITEM 1. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
5. Residential mortgage loans held for sale, which are valued at the
lower of aggregate cost or market value, were $10,216,000,
$22,954,000 and $24,659,000 at September 30, 1996, December 31,
1995 and September 30, 1995, respectively.
6. In the first nine months of 1996, the Registrant paid $515,216,000
in interest and $80,500,000 in Federal income taxes. In the first
nine months of 1995, the Registrant paid $411,120,000 in interest
and $52,000,000 in Federal income taxes. In the first nine months
of 1996 and 1995, respectively, the Registrant had noncash
investing activities consisting of the securitization of
$639,600,000 and $553,149,000 of residential mortgage loans.
7. On March 15, 1996, the Registrant acquired Kentucky Enterprise
Bancorp, Inc., with assets of $276 million in a stock-for-stock
exchange accounted for as a pooling of interests. The Consolidated
Financial Statements for prior periods have not been restated due
to immateriality.
8. On January 19, 1996, the Registrant purchased the deposits and
fixed assets of the 28 offices of 1st Nationwide Bank in the
Cleveland, Ohio area for $136 million. On February 23, 1996, the
Registrant purchased the deposits, loans and fixed assets of First
Chicago NBD Corporation's 25 office Columbus and Dayton, Ohio
operations.
9. During the second quarter of 1996, the Registrant redeemed its
4 1/4% Convertible Subordinated Notes due 1998 by issuing
3.4 million common shares. As a result, $143.3 million was added
to Stockholders' Equity.
10. Certain prior year's data has been reclassified to conform to
current presentation.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following is management's discussion and analysis of certain
significant factors which have affected the Registrant's financial
condition and results of operations during the periods included in the
consolidated financial statements which are a part of this filing.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Third quarter 1996 results include a one-time, pre-tax charge of $16.6
million ($10.8 million, or $.10 per share after tax), mandated by recent
federal legislation to recapitalize the Savings Association Insurance
Fund (SAIF). The Registrant's net income was $79,055,000 for the third
quarter, up 5.1%, and $241,444,000 for the first nine months of 1996, up
15.1%, compared to the same periods in 1995. Net income per share for
the third quarter was $.75, unchanged from 1995's $.75 and $2.34 for the
first nine months, up 9.9% over 1995's $2.13. The SAIF charge applies
to approximately $2.7 billion of thrift deposits acquired by the
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
Registrant over the years. In exchange for the charge this quarter, the
Registrant expects ongoing deposit insurance premiums will be reduced by
approximately $6.1 million annually.
Excluding the impact of the one-time charge, return on average equity
was 17.5% and return on average assets was 1.79% for the third quarter
of 1996.
The Registrant's net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis
for the third quarter of 1996 was $186.6 million, a 23% increase over
the $151.2 million for the same period of 1995. This increase resulted
from a 20% increase in average interest-earning assets and an increase
of 12 basis points in the net interest margin.
Commercial loans and leases were up 15.8%, led by commercial leases, up
31.2%. Installment loan and consumer lease originations totalled $735
million this quarter and $2.3 billion for the nine months ended,
compared to $595 million and $1.6 billion, respectively, for the same
periods last year. Residential mortgage loan volume remained strong,
with approximately $368 million originated in the third quarter and $1.2
billion for the nine months ended, compared to $330 million and $643
million, respectively, for the same periods in 1995. The Registrant
sold or securitized nearly $150 million of mortgage loans during the
quarter and over $1 billion during the first nine months of 1996. The
Registrant also securitized and sold an additional $413 million of auto
loans during the third quarter, which brings the total auto loans
securitized during the nine months ended to over $820 million.
Excluding the effect of sales and securitizations during the past twelve
months, consumer loan outstandings have increased 39.4%.
The provision for credit losses was $16.4 million in the third quarter
of 1996 and $10.7 million in the third quarter of 1995. Net chargeoffs
for the third quarter were .46% of average loans and leases, compared
with .28% reported for the third quarter of 1995. Nonperforming assets
as a percentage of total loans, leases and other real estate owned were
.38% at September 30, 1996 and .24% at September 30, 1995. Although net
chargeoffs have risen in 1996, the total net chargeoff ratio remains
below the Registrant's historical 10-year average of .48% and the
reserve for credit losses is in excess of three and one-half times
nonperforming assets.
Total other operating income, excluding securities gains, increased to
$95.3 million for the third quarter of 1996, a 25% increase over the
third quarter of 1995. Trust income and data processing income
increased 18.4% and 16.2%, respectively, over the same period in 1995,
while other service charges and fees increased 38.7% for the quarter,
due largely to growth in cardholder fees, consumer loan fees and
mortgage banking income.
The overhead ratio (operating expenses-excluding the SAIF assessment-
divided by the sum of taxable equivalent net interest income and other
operating income) for the quarter improved to 42.9%, compared to 44.1%
last quarter and 43% for the third quarter of 1995. Excluding the
SAIF assessment, total operating expenses this quarter increased less
than one percent over last quarter as management continues to scrutinize
expenses and integrate acquisitions. Excluding the one-time charge,
total operating expenses increased 21.6% over the same period of 1995.
Salaries, wages, incentives and employee benefits increased 16.1%. The
number of full-time equivalent employees (FTEs) increased 10.2% (or 605)
over the same period in 1995 to 6,525 at September 30, 1996.
Approximately one-half of the increase in FTEs is directly due to
acquisitions. Equipment and net occupancy expenses increased 25.8% over
1995 due to the net addition of 33 locations, primarily from
acquisitions, and upgrades of equipment to support growth and processing
technology. Other operating expenses before the assessment increased
27.5% over 1995, due in large part to increases in expenses resulting
from strong volume in all of our businesses, data processing and the
amortization of intangibles.
MATERIAL CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION
The material changes that have occurred in the Registrant's financial
condition during 1996 are as follows ($000's):
Sept. 30, Dec. 31,
1996 1995 $ +/- % +/-
--------- ----------- ------- ----
Securities Available for Sale $ 6,098,576 4,151,178 1,947,398 46.9
Loans and Leases 12,393,286 11,690,643 702,643 6.0
Other Assets 492,546 236,014 256,532 108.7
Core Deposits 12,981,581 10,724,414 2,257,167 21.0
CDs > $100,000, incl. Foreign 1,595,107 1,761,366 (166,259) (9.4)
Federal Funds Borrowed 710,376 553,041 157,335 28.4
Short-Term Bank Notes 874,993 450,000 424,993 94.4
Convertible Subordinated Notes -- 143,400 (143,400)(100.0)
The growth in securities available for sale was due primarily to the
liquidity provided by core deposit acquisitions, which added a total of
$2 billion in deposits. Loan and lease origination volume was strong,
offset by securitizations and sales of $1.9 billion in residential
mortgage and auto loans. Loan and lease volume was funded primarily
through short-term borrowings including federal funds borrowed and
short-term bank notes, which were also used to replace maturing foreign
office deposits. Acquisitions also contributed over $199 million in
intangibles (other assets). The decrease in Convertible Subordinated
Notes is due to the conversion as previously discussed.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The maintenance of an adequate level of liquidity is necessary to ensure
that sufficient funds are available to meet customers' loan demand and
deposit withdrawals. The banking subsidiaries' liquidity sources
consist of short-term marketable securities, maturing loans and federal
funds loaned and selected securitizable loan assets. Liquidity has also
been obtained through liabilities such as customer-related core
deposits, funds borrowed, certificates of deposit and public funds
deposits. At September 30, 1996, stockholders' equity was $2.031
billion, compared to $1.645 billion at September 30, 1995, an increase
of $386 million, or 23.5%. Stockholders' equity as a percentage of
total assets as of September 30, 1996 was 10.1%. The Federal Reserve
Board has adopted risk-based capital guidelines which assign risk
weightings to assets and off-balance sheet items and also define and
set minimum capital requirements (risk-based capital ratios). The
guidelines also define "well capitalized" ratios of Tier 1, total
capital and leverage as 6%, 10% and 5%, respectively. The Registrant
exceeded these "well capitalized" ratios at September 30, 1996 and
1995. At September 30, 1996, the Registrant had a Tier 1 risk-based
capital ratio of 11.2%, a total risk-based capital ratio of 14% and a
leverage ratio of 9%. At September 30, 1995, the Registrant had a Tier
1 risk-based capital ratio of 11%, total risk-based capital ratio of
14.4% and a leverage ratio of 9.5%.
