FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
TRUSTCO ANNOUNCES THIRD QUARTER RESULTS
Schenectady, New York - October 15, 1996
Today, TrustCo reported record net income for the third quarter and year to date
1996. For the third quarter, net income increased 13% from $6.6 million in 1995
to $7.5 million for 1996. On a per share basis, this resulted in a 14% increase,
from $0.36 in 1995 to $0.41 in 1996. Likewise, the year to date results through
September 30, 1996 reflect a 13% increase in net income for 1996 over the
comparable period in 1995. Net income for the nine-month period was $21.1
million, or $1.16 per share in 1996 compared to $18.6 million, or $1.03 per
share in 1995. Per share information is presented excluding the effect of the
15% stock split declared in August 1996.
Commenting on the 1996 results was Robert A. McCormick, President and Chief
Executive Officer of TrustCo Bank Corp NY. He stated, "The third quarter results
are a record for TrustCo, and we anticipate that 1996 will be another
record-breaking year. We achieved a return on shareholders' equity of 18.9%
through September 30, 1996, and we are confident that we will reach a 19% return
on shareholders' equity for the full year 1996.
The fundamentals that have served TrustCo so well in the past continue to guide
us into the future. These fundamental beliefs can be summarized as: strong asset
quality; focus on expense control; development of core customer relationships as
compared to transaction- oriented accounts; and return on shareholders' equity
as the principal measurement of the Company's success."

These TrustCo fundamentals were evident in the following results:
- -> Nonperforming loans have decreased from $16.7 million at September 30,
1995 to $11.4 million at September 30, 1996. Likewise, the allowance for
loan losses, as a percentage of the loan portfolio, increased to 4.16% at
September 30, 1996 compared to 3.94% at year end 1995 and 3.86% at
September 30, 1995.
- -> One measure of how well a banking enterprise controls its operating cost
is the so-called efficiency ratio. While most banks strive to achieve a
60% efficiency ratio, TrustCo has consistently outperformed this industry
goal by achieving an efficiency ratio of 39.6% for 1996.
- -> The principal sources for funding TrustCo's operations are through retail
deposits and the Trustco Short-Term Investment Account, which accepts
funds through the Company's Trust Department. Total funding sources for
the nine months of 1996 have averaged $2.03 billion, an increase of 9%
over the 1995 average balance of $1.87 billion. In addition, core deposit
customers have increased the average balance of demand deposit and savings
account deposits by $14.0 million and $56.4 million, respectively for the
year 1996 compared to 1995, and
- -> The return on average shareholders' equity for the third quarter of 1996
was 19.6% compared to 18.4% for the comparable period in 1995. Likewise,
the return on average shareholders' equity for the nine months of 1996 was
18.9% compared to 17.6% for 1995.
Mr. McCormick noted, "Though we are pleased with the third quarter and the
entire year of 1996 results to date, we are even more proud of TrustCo's long
history of superior results in these areas. As TrustCo has grown and prospered
so have our shareholders. At an annualized rate of $1.10 per share, the TrustCo
common stock dividend payout ratio so far this year is 69.3%. It is wonderful to
know that over the last 10 years, the total return to our shareholders was in
excess of 21% annually."
Also during 1996, TrustCo recorded an increase in the total loan portfolio, from
$1.18 billion on average during 1995 to $1.23 billion for 1996. The increase in
average loans was principally in the real estate loan area which increased by
$61.1 million, or 7% for the nine months of 1996, compared to the same time
period in 1995. McCormick noted, "In light of the slowdown in the home loan
market in our region, we were especially pleased with the growth in our real
estate

portfolio. Our growth in real estate loans is the result of our superior loan
pricing and service, tied together with the fact that we hold all of our
mortgage loans for our portfolio and do not sell them into the secondary
market."
TrustCo is a $2.2 billion bank holding company and through its subsidiary bank,
Trustco Bank, National Association, operates 48 bank offices in Albany,
Columbia, Greene, Rensselaer, Saratoga, Schenectady, Warren, and Washington
counties. In addition, the bank operates a full service Trust Department with
