NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1: Securities
The Corporation adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 115,
"Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" at
January 1, 1994, which requires that debt and equity securities held:
(i) to maturity be classified as such and reported at amortized cost;
(ii) for current resale be classified as trading securities and reported at
fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included in current earnings;
and (iii) for any other purpose be classified as securities available for
sale and reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded
from current earnings and reported as a separate component of stockholders'
equity. The adoption of Statement 115 had no impact on net income.
The following table summarizes the effect of this standard on
stockholders' equity:

Note 2: Off-Balance Sheet Risk and Carrying Amounts and Fair Value of
Financial Instruments
Information related to off-balance sheet risk as of March 31, 1994 is included
in Table 20 through 22 of the Corporation's First Quarter Financial
Supplement on pages T-18 through T-21.
At March 31, 1994, the net fair value of the Corporation's recorded net
financial assets subject to valuation in accordance with Financial
Accounting Standard No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial
Instruments", decreased 11 percent from year-end 1993 as a result of a
decline in the net financial assets subject to such valuation and 10
percent as a result of an increase in interest rates from year-end 1993, which
reduced the fair value of the Corporation's securities and loan portfolios.
Information related to off-balance sheet risk and the impact of changes
in interest rates should be read in conjunction with the "Interest
Rate Risk Management" section of the Corporation's First Quarter Financial
Supplement.

MANAGEMENT'S ANALYSIS OF OPERATIONS
EARNINGS HIGHLIGHTS
First Union reported earnings applicable to common stockholders of
$217 million in the first quarter of 1994, a 12 percent increase
from $193 million in the first quarter of 1993. Net income per
common share increased 9 percent, to $1.27 from $1.17 in the first
quarter of 1993.
Key factors in First Union's first quarter 1994 earnings
performance, in addition to increased efficiencies resulting from
the consolidation of five significant acquisitions in 1993,
included:
(diamond) Continued growth in net interest income;
(diamond) Continued improvement in credit quality; and
(diamond) A decline in noninterest expense from the fourth quarter
of 1993.
First quarter 1993 results do not include the purchase accounting
acquisitions of Georgia Federal Bank and First American Metro
Corp. completed in June 1993.
Domestic banking operations, including trust operations, located
in North and South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Maryland,
Tennessee, Virginia and Washington, D.C., and mortgage banking
operations are our principal sources of revenues. Foreign banking
operations are immaterial.
The Net Interest Income section provides information about lost
interest income related to nonaccrual and restructured loans and
the Asset Quality section includes further information about the
loan loss provision.
Outlook
This strong first quarter reflects First Union's ability to
improve performance in a rising interest rate environment. Our
focus is on providing the best service and a complete array of
financial products for our customers, while improving our
productivity and credit quality.
We will continue to identify opportunities that will enhance
operating results. This strategy includes making selective
investments in such areas as capital markets, capital management
and card products to further our financial goals.
While net loans were essentially flat at the end of the first
quarter of 1994 compared with the fourth quarter of 1993,
principally due to acquisition-related runoff, a smaller balance
in mortgages held for sale and seasonal declines, the outlook for
loans through the rest of the year is good. During 1994, mortgage
origination should benefit from the implementation of a new bank
branch sales program with a broader array of mortgage products and
the installation of an enhanced loan application system to speed
the mortgage lending process. Implementation of this new program
began in January of 1994.
The first quarter of 1994 included the five major 1993
acquisitions (South Carolina Federal, DFSoutheastern, Dominion
Bancshares, Georgia Federal and First
2
American), which were fully
assimilated into First Union's one common operating system.
During the second quarter of this year, First Union expects to
complete two pooling of interests acquisitions -- that of American
Bancshares Inc. on May 31, 1994, and Lieber & Co. on June 30,
1994.
American Bancshares Inc., the parent corporation of American
Commercial Savings Bank Inc., SSB, had assets of $216 million at
March 31, 1994, and is based in Monroe, North Carolina. In this
acquisition, we expect to issue approximately 518,000 shares of
First Union common stock. Assuming a First Union common stock
price of $42 per share and the issuance of 518,000 shares of First
Union common stock, the transaction value would be approximately
$22 million.
Lieber is an investment management firm that is adviser to the
Evergreen Funds, a $3.5 billion family of mutual funds at March
31, 1994, with headquarters in Purchase, New York. In this
acquisition, we expect to issue approximately 3.1 million shares
of First Union common stock. Assuming a First Union common stock
price of $42 per share and the issuance of 3.1 million shares of
First Union common stock, the transaction value would be
approximately $130 million.
During the third quarter this year, First Union expects to
complete the acquisition, announced on January 17, 1994, of
BancFlorida Financial Corporation, the parent company of
BancFlorida, a Federal Savings Bank, which had assets of $1.5
billion at March 31, 1994, and is based in Naples, Florida. This
acquisition is expected to be accounted for as a purchase.
Assuming a First Union common stock price of $42 per share prior
to closing, First Union would issue approximately 4 million shares
and the transaction value would be approximately $168 million. In
connection with this acquisition, in March and April 1994, we
repurchased 2 million shares of First Union common stock in the
open market at a cost of $83 million. The board of directors has
authorized the repurchase from time to time of up to 15 million
additional shares of common stock for various corporate purposes,
including an additional number of shares which, together with the
2 million shares previously repurchased, are estimated to
approximately equal the number of shares of First Union common
stock expected to be issued upon consummation of the acquisition
of BancFlorida. Such repurchases will not commence until at least
after the special meeting of BancFlorida stockholders to be
held on June 10, 1994. More information on the stock purchase is
included in the Stockholders' Equity section.
Consummation of all three acquisitions is subject to certain
stockholder and regulatory approvals, and other conditions of
closing.
We expect these acquisitions to have a minor impact on 1994
earnings and to be positive to earnings within 12 months of
consummation.
We continue to be alert to opportunities to enhance stockholder
value, especially in view of legislation introduced in the U.S.
Congress and legislative actions in several Southeastern states
that, under certain conditions, would permit the corporation to
acquire banking organizations throughout the nation. We are
evaluating acquisition opportunities, and teams of experienced
bankers from all areas of the corporation frequently conduct due
diligence activities in connection with possible acquisitions.
3
As a result, acquisition discussions and in some cases
negotiations frequently take place, and future acquisitions
involving cash, debt or equity securities may be expected.
Acquisitions typically involve the payment of a premium over book
and market values. Some dilution of First Union's book value and
net income per common share may occur in connection with any
future acquisitions.
The Accounting and Regulatory Matters section provides information
about various other legislative, accounting and regulatory matters
that have recently been adopted or proposed.
NET INTEREST INCOME
Tax-equivalent net interest income, the largest contributor to
earnings, was $750 million in the first quarter of 1994, compared
with $696 million in the first quarter of 1993.
Nonperforming loans reduced interest income because the
contribution from these loans is eliminated or sharply reduced. In
the first quarter of 1994, $17 million in gross interest income
would have been recorded if all nonaccrual and restructured loans
had been current in accordance with their original terms and had
been outstanding throughout the period or since origination, if
held for part of the period. The amount of interest income related
to these assets and included in income in the first quarter of
1994 was $2 million. However, a $120 million reduction in
nonperforming assets from the fourth quarter of 1993 helped in
contributing to interest income in the first quarter of 1994.
Net Interest Margin
The net interest margin, which is the difference between the tax-
equivalent yield on earning assets and the rate paid on funds to
support those assets, was 4.79 percent in the first quarter of
1994, compared with 5.00 percent in the first quarter of 1993 and
4.61 percent in the fourth quarter of 1993. The margin decline
since the first quarter of 1993 primarily resulted from the
addition of acquired banks and thrifts with lower margins; the
addition of short-term securities, which contribute to net
interest income although they reduce the margin; and the impact of
refinancing activity. The margin increase since the fourth quarter
of 1993 reflects a larger spread between loan yields and deposits
costs, and reduced refinancing activity, which had a positive
effect on mortgage-related securities. Our goal is to continue
increasing net interest income.
The average rate earned on earning assets was 7.59 percent in the
first quarter of 1994, compared with 8.10 percent in the first
quarter of 1993. The average rate paid on interest-bearing
liabilities was 3.29 percent in the first quarter of 1994 and 3.55
percent in the first quarter of 1993.
We use securities and off-balance sheet transactions to manage
interest rate sensitivity. More information on these transactions
is included in the Interest Rate Risk Management section.

NONINTEREST INCOME
Developing new sources of fee income has been one of our key long-
term strategies for dealing with increased competition from
nonbanking companies and other changes taking place in the
financial services industry.
Noninterest income was $281 million in the first quarter of 1994,
compared with $271 million in the first quarter of 1993 and $324
million in the fourth quarter of 1993. A decrease in trading
account profits, service charges on deposit accounts, and
mortgage banking revenues contributed to the decline from the
fourth quarter of 1993. The first quarter of 1994 included gains
on assets held for sale of $17 million compared with $30 million
in the fourth quarter of 1993.
Trading Activities
Trading activities are undertaken primarily to satisfy customers'
risk management and investment needs. Additionally, trading is
done for the corporation's own account. All trading activities
are conducted within risk limits established by the corporation's
Funds Management Committee.
At March 31, 1994, trading account assets were $821 million
compared with $652 million at year-end 1993. These assets are
carried at market value.
NONINTEREST EXPENSE
Noninterest expense was $640 million in the first quarter of 1994,
compared with $578 million in the first quarter of 1993 and $688
million in the fourth quarter of 1993. The decline in expenses
from the fourth quarter of 1993 reflects the assimilation of five
1993 acquisitions into First Union's one common operating system
and other acquisition-related declines in expenses, and a decline
in credit-related costs. Costs related to environmental matters
were not material.
SECURITIES AVAILABLE FOR SALE
Securities available for sale are used as a part of the
corporation's interest rate risk management strategy and may be
sold in response to changes in interest rates, changes in
prepayment risk, the need to increase regulatory capital ratios
and other factors. In accordance with the adoption of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, we began accounting for
debt and equity securities on a market value basis as of January
1, 1994.
At March 31, 1994, we had $12.7 billion in securities available
for sale, compared with a market value of $11.9 billion at
December 31, 1993. The market value of securities available for
sale was $66 million below amortized costs at the end of the first
quarter of 1994. As a result a $42 million after-tax unrealized
loss has been recorded as a reduction of stockholders' equity.
Table 7 provides information related to unrealized gains and
losses and realized gains and losses.
The average rate earned on securities available for sale in the
first quarter of 1994 was 5.23 percent, compared with 5.16 percent
in the first quarter of 1993. The average maturity of the
portfolio was 2.66 years at March 31, 1994. Portfolio activity in
the first quarter of 1994 included the addition of short-term
Treasuries.

The Accounting And Regulatory Matters section provides information
related to the accounting for debt and equity securities.
INVESTMENT SECURITIES
First Union's investment securities amounted to $2.5 billion at
March 31, 1994, compared with $2.7 billion at year-end 1993.
The average rate earned on investment securities in the first
quarter of 1994 was 9.04 percent, compared with 7.51 percent in
the first quarter of 1993. The average maturity of the portfolio
was 4.46 years at March 31, 1994. First quarter 1994 yields and
maturities reflect the reclassification of securities to the
available for sale portfolio at year-end 1993 to better support
our current interest rate risk management strategy.
The Accounting And Regulatory Matters section provides information
related to the accounting for debt and equity securities.
LOANS
Our lending strategy stresses quality growth, diversified by
product, geography and industry. A common credit underwriting
structure is in place throughout the company, and a special real
estate credit group reviews large commercial real estate loans
before approval. Consistent with our long-time standard, we
generally look for two repayment sources for commercial real
estate loans: cash flows from both the project itself and the
borrower.
Our commercial lenders focus principally on middle-market
companies. A majority of our commercial loans range from $50,000
to $10 million. We offer a broad range of financial products and
services to meet our customers' needs, including access to sources
of capital and creative financing solutions for our corporate and
commercial customers.
Our consumer lenders emphasize credit judgments that focus on a
customer's debt obligations, ability and willingness to repay, and
general economic trends.
Net loans at March 31, 1994 were $46.7 billion, compared with
$46.9 billion at December 31, 1993. Loans remained essentially
flat since year-end 1993 due to the anticipated runoff of acquired
loans and lower balances of mortgages held for sale. Commercial
and consumer loan growth was strong in Florida and South Carolina,
flat in North Carolina and Virginia, and down in Georgia, which
reflected the acquisition-related runoff.
The loan portfolio at March 31, 1994, was composed of 47 percent
in commercial loans and 53 percent in consumer loans. The
portfolio mix has not changed significantly from year-end 1993.
Unused loan commitments related to commercial and consumer loans
were $11.3 billion and $7.0 billion, respectively. Commercial and
standby letters of credit were $1.5 billion.
6
At March 31, 1994, loan participations sold to other lenders
amounted to $1.3 billion and were recorded as a reduction of gross
loans.
The average rate earned on loans in the first quarter of 1994 was
8.29 percent, compared with 8.80 percent in the first quarter of
1993. The average prime rate in the first quarter of 1994 was 6.02
percent, compared with 6.00 percent in the first quarter of 1993.
The Asset Quality section provides information about geographic
exposure in the loan portfolio and a loss-sharing arrangement with
the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) covering the
Southeast Banks commercial and consumer loan portfolios acquired
from the FDIC in 1991.
Commercial Real Estate Loans
Commercial real estate loans amounted to 16 percent of the total
portfolio at March 31, 1994, and at December 31, 1993. This
portfolio included commercial real estate mortgage loans of $5.8
billion at March 31, 1994, and at December 31, 1993. The Asset
Quality section provides information related to geographic
exposure.
Highly Leveraged Transactions
An HLT loan generally is defined as a loan amounting to more than
$20 million involving a buyout, acquisition or recapitalization of
an existing business, in which the loan substantially increases a
company's leverage ratio. At March 31, 1994, outstanding HLT loans
amounted to $700 million, compared with $786 million at December
31, 1993.
ASSET QUALITY
The following portion of the asset quality discussion is divided
into two sections to reflect the loss-sharing arrangement between
First Union and the FDIC in connection with the September 1991
Southeast Banks transaction.
The first section relates to First Union's nonperforming assets,
past due loans, net charge-offs and loan loss allowance, excluding
those related to acquired Southeast Banks nonperforming assets.
The acquired First American segregated assets discussed separately
in previous reporting periods are no longer material for
disclosure purposes and are included in the other assets caption
in the balance sheet.
The second section relates solely to the same categories mentioned
above segregated for the acquired Southeast Banks loan portfolio.
Certain ratios related to First Union's nonperforming assets and
net charge-offs have been favorably affected because Southeast
Banks segregated assets portfolios have not been included in the
determination of these ratios.
Under the terms of the loss-sharing arrangement, the FDIC
reimburses First Union for 85 percent of any losses associated
with the acquired Southeast Banks commercial and consumer loan
portfolio, except revolving consumer credit, for which
reimbursement declines five percent per year to 65 percent in
1996.
7
<PAGE>
The FDIC also provides virtually cost-free funding for the
acquired Southeast Banks nonperforming assets. This was initially
accomplished through five-year revolving notes issued by First
Union. Since the first quarter of 1992, in accordance with the
FDIC assistance agreements, the FDIC has been paying a market rate
of interest on the amount of additions to Southeast Banks
segregated assets.
First Union Nonperforming Assets
Nonperforming assets at March 31, 1994, declined 13 percent to
$796 million, or 1.70 percent of net loans and foreclosed
properties, compared with $916 million, or 1.95 percent, at
December 31, 1993.
The Quarterly Nonperforming Assets By Business Unit table
provides additional information about nonperforming assets.

Loans or properties of less than $5 million each
made up 82 percent, or $655 million, of
nonperforming assets at March 31, 1994. Of the rest:
(diamond) 8 loans or properties between $5 million and
$10 million each accounted for $53 million; and
(diamond) 6 loans or properties over $10 million each accounted
for $88 million.
Seventy-six percent of nonperforming assets were collateralized by
real estate at March 31, 1994, compared with 71 percent at year-
end 1993.
First Union Past Due Loans
In addition to these nonperforming assets, at March 31, 1994,
accruing loans 90 days past due were $80 million, compared with
$71 million at December 31, 1993. Of these, $22 million were
related to commercial and commercial real estate loans, compared
with $20 million at December 31, 1993.
First Union Net Charge-offs
Annualized net charge-offs as a percentage of average net loans
were .27 percent in the first quarter of 1994, compared with .61
percent in the first quarter of 1993. Table 10 provides
information on net charge-offs by category.
8
First Union Provision And Allowance For Loan Losses
The loan loss provision was $25 million in the first quarter of
1994, compared with $60 million in the first quarter of 1993. The
decrease in the loan loss provision was based primarily upon
current economic conditions, lower levels of nonperforming assets,
the maturity of the nonperforming assets portfolio, and current
and projected lower levels of charge-offs.
In addition, we establish reserves based upon various other
factors, including the results of quantitative analyses of the
quality of commercial loans and commercial real estate loans.
Reserves for commercial and commercial real estate loans are based
principally on loan grades, historical loss rates, borrowers'
creditworthiness, underlying cash flows from the project itself
and from borrowers, and analysis of other less quantifiable
factors that might influence the portfolio. Reserves for consumer
loans are based principally on delinquencies and historical loss
rates. We analyze all loans in excess of $500,000 that are being
monitored as potential credit problems to determine whether
supplemental, specific reserves are necessary.
For several quarters, the loan loss allowance as a percentage of
net loans has declined and the allowance coverage of nonaccrual
and restructured loans and nonperforming assets has increased, as
indicated in Table 10. In the first quarter of 1994, this was
primarily the result of growth in loans and a $472 million decline
in nonperforming assets from March 31, 1993. These percentages
exclude the acquired Southeast Banks segregated assets. The
Southeast Banks Segregated Assets section provides information
related to a separate $31 million allowance for losses on
segregated assets.
Southeast Banks Segregated Assets
At March 31, 1994, acquired Southeast Banks segregated assets
amounted to $338 million, or $307 million net of the $31 million
allowance referred to above, compared with $380 million, or $347
million net of a $33 million allowance, at December 31, 1993. This
segregated asset portfolio includes nonaccrual loans and
foreclosed properties, net of the allowance for segregated assets
as indicated in Table 12.
Southeast Banks Past Due Loans
Accruing loans 90 days past due included in the acquired Southeast
Banks performing loan portfolio decreased 17 percent from $28
million at December 31, 1993, to $24 million at March 31, 1994.
These loans are subject to the terms of the FDIC loss-sharing
agreement.
Southeast Banks Net Charge-offs
Net charge-offs of $2 million, representing First Union's
approximately 15 percent share of the losses on acquired Southeast
Banks loans, were deducted from the allowance for segregated
assets in the first quarter of 1994, compared with $3 million in
the fourth quarter of 1993.
Geographic Exposure
The loan portfolio in the South Atlantic region of the United
States is spread primarily across 58 metropolitan statistical
areas with diverse economies. Washington, D.C.; Charlotte, North
Carolina; Atlanta, Georgia; and Miami, Jacksonville, West Palm
Beach and Tampa, Florida, are our largest markets, but no
9
individual metropolitan market contains more than 8 percent of the
commercial loan portfolio.
Substantially all of the $7.3 billion commercial real estate
portfolio at March 31, 1994, was located in our banking region,
which includes North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida,
Virginia, Maryland, Tennessee and Washington, D.C.
CORE DEPOSITS
Core deposits were $50.0 billion at March 31, 1994, compared with
$50.9 billion at December 31, 1993. Core deposits include savings,
negotiated order of withdrawal (NOW), money market and
noninterest-bearing accounts, and other consumer time deposits.
Average noninterest-bearing deposits were 20 percent of average
core deposits in the first quarter of 1994, compared with 19
percent in the first quarter of 1993. The Net Interest Income
Summaries provide additional information about average core
deposits.
The portion of core deposits in higher-rate, other consumer time
deposits was 33 percent at March 31, 1994, and at year-end 1993.
As market rates have declined, some customers have shifted their
other consumer time deposits either into other deposit products or
other investments. We expect declines in other consumer time
deposit balances as long as rates stay at their current levels.
Other consumer time and other noncore deposits usually pay higher
rates than savings and transaction accounts, but they generally
are not available for immediate withdrawal and are less expensive
to process.
PURCHASED FUNDS
Purchased funds at March 31, 1994, were $12.1 billion, compared
with $10.1 billion at year-end 1993. We purchase funds primarily
to fund short-term investments that have attractive yields.
Primarily, we fund these investments with federal funds,
securities sold under repurchase agreements, and eurodollar time
deposits.
Average purchased funds in the first quarter of 1994 were $10.9
billion, an increase of 20 percent from the first quarter of 1993.
LONG-TERM DEBT
Long-term debt was 60 percent of total stockholders' equity at
March 31, 1994, compared with 59 percent at December 31, 1993.
During the first quarter of 1994, we issued $150 million of 15-
year, 6.375 percent subordinated debt. Proceeds from this debt
issue were designated for general corporate purposes.
Under a shelf registration statement filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission, we currently have available for issuance $650
million of senior or
10
subordinated debt securities. The sale of any
additional debt securities will depend on future market
conditions, funding needs and other factors.
Debt Obligations
We have a $300 million committed back-up line of credit that
expires in June 1994, which we are negotiating to replace. The
current credit facility contains financial covenants that require
First Union to maintain a minimum level of tangible net worth,
restrict double leverage ratios and require capital levels at
subsidiary banks to meet regulatory standards. We expect the new
credit facility also will contain financial covenants. First Union
is currently in compliance with these requirements and has not
used this line of credit.
In 1994, $57 million of long-term debt will mature. Maturing in
1995 is $211 million, and in 1996, $541 million, which includes
notes payable to the FDIC of $225 million at March 31, 1994. We
expect the notes payable to the FDIC will decrease over the
remaining period ending in September 1996 through cash flows
generated by the acquired loans, the sale of the Southeast Banks
segregated assets and FDIC reimbursements.
The Asset Quality section provides additional information related
to the funding of the segregated assets.
STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
At March 31, 1994, common stockholders' equity was $5.03 billion,
a two percent increase from $4.92 billion at December 31, 1993.
Total stockholders' equity was $5.28 billion, compared with $5.21
billion at year-end 1993. The increase in equity since year-end
1993 was primarily the result of retained earnings and capital
raised through the dividend reinvestment and employee stock option
and purchase plans, net of a $42 million unrealized loss related
to debt and equity securities and $46 million paid for the
purchase in the open market of 1.1 million shares of common stock
and cancellation of such shares. In April 1994 we repurchased and
cancelled an additional 897,000 common stock at a cost of $37
million.
Series 1990 preferred stock cash dividends of 7.25 percent per
annum were paid for the quarter ended March 31, 1994. We paid $74
million in dividends to preferred and common stockholders in the
first quarter of 1994.
Subsidiary Dividends
Our banking subsidiaries are the largest source of parent company
dividends. Capital requirements established by regulators limit
dividends that these and certain other of our subsidiaries can
pay. The Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) generally limits a
national bank's dividends in two principal ways: first, dividends
cannot exceed the bank's undivided profits, less statutory bad
debt in excess of a bank's allowance for loan losses; and second,
in any year dividends may not exceed a bank's net profits
for that year, plus its retained earnings from the preceding two
years, less any required transfers to surplus.
Under these and other limitations, our subsidiaries had $452
million available for dividends at March 31, 1994. Our
subsidiaries paid $25 million in dividends to the corporation
during the first quarter of 1994.
11
Risk-Based Capital
The minimum requirement for the ratio of total capital to risk-
weighted assets (including certain off-balance-sheet activities,
such as standby letters of credit and interest rate swaps) is
currently 8 percent. At least half of the total capital is to be
composed of common equity, retained earnings and a limited amount
of qualifying preferred stock, less certain intangible assets
(tier 1 capital). The rest may consist of a limited amount of
subordinated debt, nonqualifying preferred stock and a limited
amount of the loan loss allowance (together with tier 1 capital,
total capital).
At March 31, 1994, the corporation's tier 1 and total capital
ratios were 9.36 percent and 15.15 percent, respectively.
In addition, the Federal Reserve Board has established minimum
leverage ratio requirements for bank holding companies. These
requirements provide for a minimum leverage ratio of tier 1
capital to adjusted average quarterly assets equal to 3 percent
for bank holding companies that meet specified criteria, including
having the highest regulatory rating. All other bank holding
companies will generally be required to maintain a leverage ratio
from at least 4 to 5 percent. The corporation's leverage ratio at
March 31, 1994, was 6.57 percent.
The requirements also provide that bank holding companies
experiencing internal growth or making acquisitions will be
expected to maintain strong capital positions substantially above
the minimum supervisory levels without significant reliance on
intangible assets. The Federal Reserve Board also has indicated it
will continue to consider a tangible tier 1 leverage ratio
(deducting all intangibles) in evaluating proposals for expansion
or new activity. The Federal Reserve Board has not advised us of
any specific minimum leverage ratio applicable to us.
Each subsidiary bank is subject to similar capital requirements
adopted by the OCC. Each subsidiary bank listed in Table 18 had a
leverage ratio in excess of 5.58 percent at March 31, 1994. None
of our subsidiary banks has been advised of any specific minimum
capital ratios applicable to it.
The regulatory agencies also have adopted regulations establishing
capital tiers for banks. Banks in the highest capital tier, or
"well capitalized," must have a leverage ratio of 5 percent, a
tier 1 capital ratio of 6 percent and a total capital ratio of 10
percent.
At March 31, 1994, the subsidiary national banks listed in Table
18 met the capital and leverage ratio requirements for well
capitalized banks. We expect to maintain these banks' ratios at
the required levels by the retention of earnings and, if
necessary, the issuance of additional capital.
Failure to meet certain capital ratio or leverage ratio
requirements could subject a bank to a variety of enforcement
remedies, including termination of deposit insurance by the FDIC.
The Accounting and Regulatory Matters section provides more
information about proposed changes in risk-based capital
standards.

INTEREST RATE RISK MANAGEMENT
Managing interest rate risk is fundamental to banking. Banking
institutions manage the inherently different maturity and
repricing characteristics of the lending and deposit-taking lines
of business to achieve a desired interest rate sensitivity
position and to limit exposure to interest rate risk. Our inherent
maturity and repricing characteristics of lending and deposit
activities create a naturally asset-sensitive structure. By using
a combination of on- and off-balance sheet financial instruments
we manage interest rate sensitivity within our established policy
guidelines.
The Financial Management Committee of the corporation's board of
directors reviews the corporation's overall interest rate risk
management activity. The Funds Management Committee, which
includes the chief executive officer, president, and senior
executives from our Capital Markets Group, credit and finance
areas, oversees the interest rate risk management process and
approves policy guidelines. Funds Management personnel monitor the
day-to-day exposure to changes in interest rates in response to
loan and deposit flows and make adjustments within established
policy guidelines.
We believe that interest rate risk is best measured by the amount
of earnings per share at risk given specified changes in interest
rates. We have been modeling interest rate sensitivity since the
early 1970s. The model captures all earning assets, interest-
bearing liabilities and all off-balance sheet financial
instruments and combines the various factors affecting rate
sensitivity into an earnings outlook that incorporates our view of
the short-term interest rate environment most likely over the next
24 months. The Funds Management Committee reviews and continuously
updates the underlying assumptions included in the earnings
simulation model.
Our interest rate sensitivity analysis is based on multiple
interest rate scenarios, projected changes in balance sheet
categories and other relevant assumptions. Changes in management's
outlook and other market factors may cause actual results to
differ from our current simulated outlook.
We believe our earnings simulation model is a more relevant
depiction of interest rate risk than traditional gap tables
because it captures multiple effects excluded in less
sophisticated presentations, and it includes significant variables
that we identify as being affected by interest rates. For example
our model captures rate of change differentials, such as federal
funds rates versus savings account rates; maturity effects, such
as calls on securities; and rate barrier effects, such as caps and
floors on loans. It also captures changing balance sheet levels,
such as loans and investment securities; and floating rate loans
that may be tied or related to prime, LIBOR, CD rates, treasury
notes, federal funds or other rate indices, which do not
necessarily move identically as short-term rates change. In
addition it captures leads and lags that occur in long-term rates
as short-term rates move away from current levels; and the effects
of prepayment volatility on various fixed rate assets such as
residential mortgages, mortgage-backed securities and consumer
loans. These and certain other effects are evaluated in developing
the multiple scenarios from which sensitivity of earnings to
changes in interest rates is determined.
13
We determine sensitivity of earnings to changes in interest rates
by assessing the impact on net income in multiple rising and
falling interest rate scenarios. The model is updated at least
monthly and more often if desired.
We use three scenarios in analyzing interest rate sensitivity. The
base line scenario is our estimated most likely path for future
short-term interest rates for the next 24 months. The base line
scenario assumes rising federal funds rates over the next 24
months. The "high rate" and "low rate" scenarios assume 100 basis
point shifts from the base line scenario in the federal funds rate
by the fourth succeeding month and remain 100 basis points higher
or lower through the twenty-fourth month. Additionally, other
scenarios are reviewed monthly to examine the effects of different
interest rate movements.
We determine interest rate sensitivity by the change in earnings
per share between the three scenarios over a 12-month policy
measurement period. The earnings per share as calculated by the
earnings simulation model under the base line scenario becomes the
standard. The measurement of interest rate sensitivity is the
percentage change in earnings per share calculated by the model
under high rate versus base-line and under low rate versus base-
line. The policy measurement period begins with the fourth month
forward and ends with the fifteenth month (i.e., the twelve-month
period.) The scenarios do not include the adjustments that
management would make as rate expectations change.
Our policy limit for the maximum negative impact on earnings per
share resulting from either the high rate or low rate scenario is
5 percent. Based upon the April 1994 outlook, if interest rates
were to rise to follow the high rate scenario, which means a full
100 basis point increase over the base line (already a rising rate
scenario), then earnings during the policy measurement period
would be negatively affected by 2.9 percent (assuming management
took no actions.)
Off-Balance Sheet Derivatives For Interest Rate Risk Management
As part of our overall interest rate risk management strategy, for
many years we have used off-balance sheet derivatives as a cost-
and capital-efficient way to modify the repricing or maturity
characteristics of on-balance sheet assets and liabilities. Our
off-balance sheet derivative transactions used for interest rate
sensitivity management include swaps, futures and options with
indices that directly relate to the pricing of specific core
assets and liabilities of the corporation. We believe there is
minimal risk that the derivatives used for rate sensitivity
management will have any significant unintended effect on
corporate earnings.
As a result of interest rate fluctuations, derivatives will from
time to time develop unrealized appreciation or depreciation
in market values as compared with their cost. If the derivatives
are directly linked to specific assets and liabilities of the
organization, then there will generally be offsetting unrealized
appreciation and depreciation on the corporate balance sheet.
Our asset sensitivity arises naturally primarily because the
repricing characteristics of the large core deposit base have a
positive effect on earnings in a rising rate environment and a
negative effect on earnings in a falling rate environment. We use
the traditional investment portfolio as well as off-balance sheet
derivative instruments to neutralize this natural asset
sensitivity of the corporation. This is accomplished primarily by
holding fixed rate debt instruments in the securities
14
portfolio or
by adding off-balance sheet "asset proxies." These "asset proxies"
consist of interest rate swaps that convert floating rate assets
(primarily variable rate loans) into fixed rate assets. The
combination of securities and interest rate swaps enables us to
achieve a desired level of interest rate sensitivity.
Another common application of derivatives in managing the
corporation's interest rate risk is the use of interest rate swaps
to convert fixed rate debt into floating rate debt. This is
accomplished by entering into interest rate swap contracts to
receive a fixed rate of interest to the contractual maturity of
the debt issued and pay a variable rate, usually six-month LIBOR.
These "liability swaps" leave rate sensitivity unchanged, whereas
the fixed-rate debt issuance alone would have increased asset
sensitivity or reduced liability sensitivity. The combination of
the "liability swaps" and debt produces the desired LIBOR-based
floating rate funding regardless of changes in interest rates.
As interest rates move higher, the market value of both categories
of interest rate swaps will decline. In the example of swaps used
as "asset proxies," the market value decline will be somewhat
offset by a gain in value of the corporation's core deposits. For
"liability swaps," the market value decline would be closely
offset by appreciation in the market value of the fixed rate debt
on the balance sheet to which the swaps are directly linked.
The important consideration is not the shifting of unrealized
appreciation or depreciation between and among on- and off-balance
sheet instruments, but the prudent management of interest rate
sensitivity so the corporate earnings are not at risk as interest
rates move up or down.
The notional amount of off-balance sheet derivative financial
instruments used to manage our interest rate risk sensitivity
amounted to $42.6 billion at March 31, 1994, compared to $48.8
billion at December 31, 1993. The related fair value of the off-
balance sheet derivative financial instruments was $18 million at
March 31, 1994, and $369 million at December 31, 1993. The
increased contribution to net interest income in a higher
interest rate environment from on-balance sheet assets and
liabilities is expected to substantially offset the potential
negative impact on net interest income reflected by the decline
in market value of these instruments.
Although off-balance sheet derivative financial instruments do not
expose the corporation to credit risk equal to the notional
amount, we are exposed to credit risk equal to the extent of the
fair value gain in an off-balance sheet derivative financial
instrument if the counterparty fails to perform. We minimize the
credit risk in these instruments by dealing only with high quality
counterparties. Each transaction is specifically approved for
applicable credit exposure.
In addition, our policy is to require all caps, floors, swaps and
swaptions be governed by an International Swap Dealers Association
Master Agreement and be subject to bilateral collateral
arrangements.
Collateral for these transactions is delivered by either party
when the credit risk associated with a particular transaction, or
group of transactions to the extent netting exists, exceeds
acceptable thresholds of credit risk. Thresholds are determined
based on the strength of the individual counterparty and are
bilateral. As of March 31, 1994, the total credit risk in excess
of thresholds was $124 million.
15
The fair value of collateral held was 96 percent of the total
credit risk in excess of thresholds.
LIQUIDITY
We manage liquidity -- the ability to raise funds primarily
through deposits, purchased funds or the issuance of debt or
capital -- through the selection of the asset mix and the
maturity mix of liabilities.
As part of this process, we continually evaluate funding needs and
alternatives. For example, for some time we have focused efforts
in our large branch network toward raising more deposits. This
reduces dependency on national market sources to help meet funding
requirements. In addition, acquired bank and savings bank deposits
have enhanced overall liquidity.
We use these deposits and other funding sources to fund loans and
investments, meet deposit withdrawals and maintain reserve
requirements.
Net cash provided from operations primarily results from net
income adjusted for the following noncash accounting items: the
provisions for loan losses and foreclosed properties; and
depreciation and amortization. These items amounted to $106
million in the first quarter of 1994, compared with $152 million
in the first quarter of 1993. This cash was available to increase
earning assets, to reduce borrowings by $32 million and to pay
dividends of $74 million.
Several off-balance sheet assets could be used to increase
liquidity and provide additional financial flexibility. These
include a mortgage servicing portfolio with an estimated fair
value of $255 million over book value at March 31, 1994.
ACCOUNTING AND REGULATORY MATTERS
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) has issued
Standard No. 112, "Employers' Accounting for Postemployment
Benefits", which requires accrual of a liability for all types of
benefits paid to former or inactive employees after employment but
before retirement. The company adopted this accounting standard
beginning January 1, 1994. Benefits subject to this accounting
pronouncement include salary continuation, supplemental
unemployment benefits, severance benefits, disability-related
benefits (including workers' compensation), job training and
counseling, and continuation of such benefits as health care and
life insurance coverage. The cumulative effect of initially
applying this new accounting standard in 1994 will be
approximately $14 million. The recurring reduction of income
before income taxes is expected to be immaterial.
The FASB also has issued Standard No. 114, "Accounting by
Creditors for Impairment of a Loan", which requires that all
creditors value all specifically reviewed loans for which it is
probable that the creditor will be unable to collect all amounts
due according to the terms of the loan agreement at the present
value of expected cash flows, market price of the loan, if
available, or value of the underlying collateral. Expected cash
flows are required to be discounted at the loan's effective
interest rate. We estimate the initial application of this
accounting standard will not require an increase to the existing
allowance for loan losses. The
16
periodic effect on net income has not been fully determined.
This Standard is required for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1994. The FASB has issued an exposure draft,
"Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan--Income
Recognition", that would amend FASB Statement No. 114 to
allow a creditor to use existing methods for recognizing interest
income on an impaired loan and by requiring additional disclosures
about how a creditor recognizes interest income related to
impaired loans. This proposed Statement would be effective upon
issuance.
The FASB also issued Standard No. 115, "Accounting for Certain
Investments in Debt and Equity Securities", that requires that
debt and equity securities held: (i) to maturity be classified as
such and reported at amortized cost; (ii) for current resale be
classified as trading securities and reported at fair value, with
unrealized gains and losses included in current earnings; and
(iii) for any other purpose be classified as securities available
for sale and reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and
losses excluded from current earnings and reported as a separate
component of stockholders' equity. It is required for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 1993. The effect of the foregoing
would be to cause fluctuations in stockholders' equity based on
changes in values of debt and equity securities. More information
related to the adoption of this Standard is included in the
Securities Available For Sale section.
The FASB has issued an exposure draft, "Accounting for Stock-based
Compensation", that proposes that the fair value of an award of
equity instruments to employees be recognized as additional equity
at the date the award is granted. Amounts attributable to future
service would be recognized as an asset and amortized to personnel
expense over the period of employee service. If the award is for
past services, personnel expense would be charged in the period in
which the award is granted. Pro forma disclosure of the effects on
net income and income per share for awards granted after December
31, 1993, would be required. The actual fair value adjustments to
net income would be effective for awards granted after December
31, 1996. The effect of the provisions of this proposed accounting
standard on net income and total stockholders' equity would depend
upon the nature of stock-based compensation, if any, awarded by
the corporation in future years.
The FASB has also issued an exposure draft, "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets", that proposes accounting for the
impairment of long-lived assets, identifiable intangibles and
goodwill related to those assets. It would require the carrying
amount of impaired assets be reduced to fair value. An entity
would estimate the future cash flows expected to result from the
use of an asset and its eventual disposition. If the sum of the
expected future net cash flows (undiscounted and without interest
charges) is less that the carrying amount of the asset, an
impairment loss would be recognized. Measurement of an impairment
loss for long-lived assets and identifiable intangibles that an
entity expects to hold and use would be based on the fair value of
the asset. Long-lived assets and identifiable intangibles to be
disposed of would be reported at the lower of cost or fair value
less cost to sell, except for certain assets, which in accordance
with current accounting pronouncements, will continue to be
reported at the lower of cost or net realizable value. This
proposed statement also would require a rate-regulated enterprise
to recognize an impairment for the amount of costs excluded when a
regulator excludes all or part of a cost from the enterprise's
rate base. This proposed
17
statement would be effective for financial statements issued for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1994.
The FASB has also issued an exposure draft, "Disclosure about
Derivative Financial Instruments and Fair Value of Financial
Instruments". This proposed statement would require improved
disclosures about derivative financial instruments -- futures,
forward, swap or option contracts, or other financial instruments
with similar characteristics. It would also amend existing
requirements of FASB Statement No.105, Disclosure of Information
about Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk and
Financial Instruments with Concentration of Credit Risk, and FASB
Statement No.107, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial
Instruments. It would require that a distinction be made between
financial instruments held or issued for the purposes of trading
or other than trading. For derivative financial instruments held
or issued for trading, this proposed Statement would require
disclosure of average, maximum and minimum aggregate fair values
and of net trading gains or losses. For derivative financial
instruments held or issued for purposes other than trading, it
would require disclosure about those purposes, about how the
instruments are reported in financial statements, and, if the
purpose is hedging anticipated transactions, about the anticipated
transactions, the amounts of hedging gains and losses deferred,
and the transactions or other events that result in recognition of
the deferred gains or losses in income. The proposed Statement
would encourage, but not require, quantitative information about
interest rate or other market risks of derivative financial
instruments, and also of other assets and liabilities, that is
consistent with the way the entity manages or adjusts risks and
that is useful for comparing the results of applying the entity's
strategies to its objectives for holding or issuing the derivative
financial instruments. The proposed Statement would be effective
for financial statements issued for fiscal years ending after
December 15, 1995.
The Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of
1989 (FIRREA), among other provisions, imposes liability on a bank
insured by the FDIC for certain obligations to the FDIC incurred
in connection with other insured banks under common control.
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act also
requires a revision of risk-based capital standards. The new
standards are required to incorporate interest rate risk,
concentration of credit risk and the risks of nontraditional
activities and to reflect the actual performance and expected risk
of loss of multifamily mortgages.The Risk-Based Capital section
provides more information on risk assessment classifications.
Legislation has been enacted providing that deposits and certain
claims for administrative expenses and employee compensation
against an insured depository institution would be afforded a
priority over other general unsecured claims against such an
institution, including federal funds and letters of credit, in the
"liquidation or other resolution" of such an institution by any
receiver.
Various other legislative proposals concerning the banking
industry are pending in Congress. Given the uncertainty of the
legislative process, we cannot assess the impact of any such
legislation on our financial condition or results of operations.

Included in "Other" at March 31, 1994, are $ 1,357,553,000 of securities
that are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. The currency
exchange rates were hedged to minimize the exposure to currency revaluation
risks. At March 31, 1994, these securities had a weighted average maturity of
3.07 years and a weighted average yield of 7.41 percent. The weighted average
U.S. equivalent yield of these securities was 5.13 percent based on a weighted
average interest differential of (2.28) percent due to the hedging of the
foreign currency exchange rates.
Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities because
borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call
or prepayment penalties. The aging of mortgage-backed securities is based on
their weighted average maturities at March 31, 1994. Average maturity in years
excludes preferred and common stocks and money market funds.
Weighted average yields are based on amortized cost. Yields related to
securities exempt from both federal and state income taxes, federal income taxes
only or state income taxes only are stated on a fully tax-equivalent basis.
They are reduced by the nondeductible portion of interest expense, assuming a
federal tax rate of 35 percent; a North Carolina state tax rate of 7.8275
percent, a Georgia and Tennessee state tax rate of 6 percent; a South Carolina
state tax rate of 4.5 percent; a Florida state tax rate of 5.5 percent; a
Maryland state tax rate of 7 percent; and a Washington, D.C. tax rate of 10.25
percent, respectively.
Securities available for sale at March 31, 1994, do not include commitments
to purchase $77,828,000 of additional securities that at March 31, 1994 had a
market value of $77,818,000 . Securities available for sale at March 31, 1994,
include the carrying value of $478,522,000 of securities which have been sold
for future settlement. Gains and losses from sales are accounted for on a trade
date basis. Gross gains and losses realized on the sale of debt securities in
1994, were $12,028,000 and $11,500,000, respectively, and on sundry securities
gross gains realized were $3,772,000 .

*Loans are stated net of unearned income. Since savings, NOW and money
market accounts theoretically can be repriced at any time, all such balances
have been included in 1-90 days. If these amounts were spread based upon
expected repricing characteristics, or if they were treated as nonsensitive, as
many in the industry do, the cumulative gap ratio would be significantly
reduced. Accordingly, this interest rate gap table has inherent limitations
on its ability to accurately portray interest rate sensitivity, and
therefore, it is only provided in conjunction with common banking industry
practice.

(1) Converts floating rate assets to fixed rate. Adds to liability sensitivity. Similar characteristics to a fixed income
security. Includes $3.6 billion of indexed amortizing swaps of which $1.5 billion to mature in 1994 if 3 month LIBOR remains below 7
percent and $2.1 billion to mature within five years.
(2) Enables Corporation to, in effect, extend maturities by locking in yields for future periods; $2.0 billion effective December
1994 and $200 million effective March 1995.
(3) Includes $800 million of interest rate floors, of which $400 million were purchased and offset by $400 million sold, locking
in gains to be amortized over the remaining life of the contracts.
(4) Converts fixed rate long-term debt to floating rate by matching maturity of the swap to the debt issue. Maintains neutral
rate sensitivity.
(5) Miscellaneous option-based products for liability management purposes include $285 million of written and purchased options
on swaps, $325 million eurodollar caps and $150 million eurodollar floors.
(6) Simultaneous purchase and sale of caps ($2.5 billion each) to protect against a narrowing in the spread between prime and
federal funds. Protection occurs with prime rate greater than 6 percent and federal funds rate greater than 3.25 percent.
(7) Swap to hedge against a narrowing in the spread between the prime rate and federal funds; pay rate equals the average prime
rate less 233 basis points versus receiving the federal funds rate. Subsequent to March 31, 1994, the forward prime/federal funds
swap was terminated resulting in a loss of $219,000. The loss will be deferred and amortized over the remaining life of the
contract.
(8) Swap to hedge against a narrowing in the spread between the prime rate and 3 month LIBOR; pay rate equals the average prime
rate less 212 basis points versus receiving 3 month LIBOR. Subsequent to March 31, 1994, the forward prime/LIBOR swap was
terminated resulting in a gain of $1.1 million. The gain will be deferred and amortized over the remaining life of the contract.

LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN
Our earnings in the first quarter of 1994 were $217 million, a 12
percent increase from $193 million in the first quarter of 1993
and 14 percent from $190 million in the fourth quarter of 1993.
Net income per common share increased to $1.27 from $1.17 in the
first quarter of 1993 and $1.12 in the fourth quarter of 1993.
This strong first quarter reflects our ability to improve performance
in a rising interest rate environment. Our focus is on providing the best
service and a complete array of financial products for our customers,
while improving our productivity and credit quality. We will continue to
make selective investments in such areas as capital markets, capital
management and card products to further our financial goals.
Key factors in First Union's first quarter 1994 earnings performance
since the fourth quarter of 1993 included continued growth in net interest
income; improvement in credit quality, including a $120 million
reduction in nonperforming assets since year-end, lower charge-offs and a
lower loan loss provision; and a $48 million decline in noninterest expense.
Tax-equivalent net interest income increased to $750 million from
$696 million in the first quarter of 1993 and $733 million in the fourth
quarter of 1993.
Nonperforming assets declined to $796 million, or 1.70 percent of
net loans and foreclosed properties, at March 31, 1994, compared with
$1.268 billion, or 3.07 percent, at the end of the first quarter a year ago,
and $916 million, or 1.95 percent, at December 31, 1993.
Net loans at March 31, 1994, were $46.7 billion, compared with
$40.9 billion at the end of first quarter of 1993 and $46.9 billion at year-
end 1993. Since year-end, commercial and consumer loan growth has
been partially offset by the planned runoff of acquired loans and lower
balances of mortgages held for sale.
Deposits were $52.1 billion at March 31, 1994, compared with $47.9
billion at the end of the first quarter a year ago and $53.7 billion at year-
end 1993. Total stockholders' equity was $5.28 billion at March 31, 1994,
compared with $4.66 billion at March 31, 1993 and $5.21 billion at year-end.
Results for the first quarter of 1993 do not include the purchase
accounting acquisitions of Georgia Federal Bank and First American
Metro Corp. in June 1993.
At March 31, 1994, First Union had assets of $72.2 billion and
operated 1,308 banking offices in Florida, North Carolina, Georgia, Virginia,
South Carolina, Tennessee, Maryland and Washington, D.C., and 206
nonbanking offices in 39 states.
Thank you for your interest in First Union.
Sincerely,
(Signature of Edward E. Crutchfield Jr.)
Edward E. Crutchfield Jr., Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
