For Immediate Release
NATIONAL CITY REPORTS 10 PERCENT INCREASE IN
THIRD QUARTER EARNINGS PER SHARE
CLEVELAND, Ohio--October 15, 1999--National City Corporation (NYSE:
NCC) today reported record third quarter earnings per diluted share of $.57, an
increase of 9.6% compared to $.52 in the third quarter of 1998. Net income was
$356.5 million, versus $344.4 million a year ago. Returns on average common
equity and average assets were 23.8% and 1.71%, respectively, compared to 19.0%
and 1.69%, respectively, for the same period last year. The efficiency ratio
improved to 54.9% from 60.1% in last year's third quarter.
For the first nine months of 1999, excluding nonrecurring items,
diluted earnings per share increased 12.9% to $1.66, compared to $1.47 in 1998.
On the same basis, net income increased 8.8% to $1,059.3 million, versus $973.3
million for the same period last year. Excluding nonrecurring items, returns on
average common equity and average assets were 22.5% and 1.69%, respectively,
compared to 19.1% and 1.65%, respectively, for the same period last year.

On August 31, 1999, the Corporation acquired First Franklin Financial
Companies, an industry leader in nonagency residential mortgage loan
originations. The initial effect of First Franklin, accounted for as a purchase
and included in the results of operations beginning in September, reduced
reported earnings by $.01 per diluted share.
Commenting on the financial results for the third quarter and first
nine months of 1999, David A. Daberko, Chairman and CEO stated, "The
Corporation's financial performance was characterized by well-controlled
expenses, sound credit quality, continued strength in consumer lending, and a
stable net interest margin. While performance in most business lines is
generally on plan, several key initiatives have held down overall revenues. We
divested unprofitable business lines at National Processing, deliberately pared
back our real estate exposure, and managed our capital aggressively. Revenue
growth continues to be our #1 challenge and priority. We believe the strategies
and capabilities built upon this year, including initiatives such as the
purchase of First Franklin, position us to strengthen core revenues going
forward."
Included in the nine-month results were several non-recurring items
which, while having no impact on the third quarter and only a nominal per share
impact in the first nine months of 1999, did affect a number of reported income
and expense line items.
Reported securities gains in the first nine months of 1999 included a
pre-tax gain of $32.1 million from the sale of National City's holdings in
Concord EFS, Inc. (NASDAQ: CEFT). Noninterest expense included $37.8 million in
pre-tax charges pursuant to a plan to improve the cost-efficiency of branch
office facilities, along with certain unrelated executive contract obligations.
Other noninterest income included gains on the sales of National City's
interests in Electronic Payment Services, Inc. and Stored Value Systems, Inc.,
and losses on the disposition of certain business lines at National Processing,
Inc. (NYSE: NAP), National City's 88%-owned

item processing subsidiary. The combination of these items produced a pre-tax
benefit of $37.1 million, and increased reported net income for the first nine
months of 1999 by $2.7 million, or $.01 per diluted share.
The results for the first nine months of 1998 included pre-tax charges
of $274.7 million incurred in connection with the acquisitions of First of
America Bank Corporation and Fort Wayne National Corporation. The effect of
these nonrecurring charges was to reduce net income by $193.9 million, or $.29
per diluted share.
Net interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis for the third quarter
of 1999 was $757.7 million, an $11.9 million increase from $745.8 million for
the same period in 1998. The year-over-year increase represents a higher level
of earning assets reduced somewhat by a lower net interest margin. The lower
margin primarily reflects the cost of funding the Corporation's share repurchase
program. Average loans, excluding real estate, were up 8.7% to $42.5 billion in
the third quarter of 1999 compared to $39.1 billion in last year's third
quarter. Growth was driven by a 9.2% increase in commercial loans and an 8.2%
increase in consumer installment and revolving loans. Commercial and consumer
loan growth was partially offset by a managed reduction in lower-yielding
assets, principally residential real estate loans.
On a linked-quarter basis, a richer earning-asset mix, offset by higher
interest costs associated with share repurchases and a shift in funding
composition, led to net interest income and margin remaining relatively
unchanged for the third quarter of 1999. Commercial leasing and home equity loan
originations for the third quarter were among the strongest ever and drove a
19.3% annualized increase in these outstandings. Residential loans of $356
million were also acquired as part of the First Franklin acquisition. The
positive effect of these items on the third

quarter's net interest income was partially offset by the sale of $566 million
of student loans and a seasonal decline in commercial floorplan lending.
Fees and other income for the third quarter of 1999 were $528.6
million. Excluding the effect of the divested businesses, fees and other income
increased 2.1% from $517.8 million in the third quarter of 1998, and were up
1.7% from $520.0 million in the second quarter of this year, representing an
annualized growth rate of 6.6%. Solid contributions from trust and investment
management fees and service charges on deposit accounts benefited the
year-over-year quarterly comparison of noninterest income. Service charges on
deposit accounts for the third quarter of 1999 also increased over 1999's second
quarter due to improved deposit fee management. Mortgage banking revenues were
strong through most of 1999, although higher interest rates in the third quarter
slowed mortgage refinancing and originations. National City's residential loan
servicing portfolio grew 35.7% to $44.4 billion at the end of the 1999 third
quarter, up from $32.7 billion in 1998.
For the first nine months of 1999, excluding the effect of the divested
businesses and nonrecurring items, fees and other income grew 5.0% to $1,563.6
million, from $1,488.6 million for the same period last year with growth
experienced in item processing revenue, service charges on deposit accounts,
trust and investment management fees, and mortgage banking revenue.
In the third quarter of 1999, pre-tax securities gains totaled $20.3
million, or $.02 per share, after-tax, compared to $64.4 million, or $.06 per
share, after-tax, in the third quarter of 1998. For the first nine months of
1999, pre-tax securities gains, excluding nonrecurring items, totaled $69.2
million, or $.07 per share, after-tax, compared to $85.2 million, or $.08 per
share, after-tax, for the same period in 1998.

Noninterest expense, excluding nonrecurring items, declined 9.8%, or
$76.5 million to $705.9 million in the 1999 third quarter from $782.4 million in
the third quarter of 1998. Compared to the second quarter of 1999, noninterest
expense, excluding the nonrecurring items, was down 7.5% on an annualized basis.
Noninterest expense, excluding nonrecurring items, for the first nine months of
1999 declined by $66.3 million, or 3.0% over the same period last year. Reduced
incentive compensation, merger integration savings, and lower expenses from the
disposition of the National Processing business lines in the second quarter of
1999 contributed to the declines. Partially offsetting these reductions were
increased expenses in 1999 resulting from growth in fee-based businesses,
information technology initiatives, and the purchase acquisition of First
Franklin Financial Companies, whose costs were not in the previous quarter's
base.
Credit quality continued to be excellent with low levels of
nonperforming loans, delinquencies and net charge-offs. Nonperforming assets at
September 30, 1999 were $260.0 million, or .45% of total loans and real estate
owned, up from $249.5 million at June 30, 1999 and down from $271.9 million at
March 31, 1999. Real estate mortgage loans, which historically have had annual
loss ratios of less than .06%, comprise nearly 60% of nonperforming assets at
September 30, 1999. For the third quarter of 1999, net charge-offs totaled $55.0
million, or .38% of average loans, versus $59.9 million, or .42% of average
loans in the second quarter of 1999, and $68.0 million, or .48% in the first
quarter of 1999. The allowance for loan losses was $970.7 million, or 1.67% of
loans at quarter-end 1999.
Total assets were $85.1 billion at September 30, 1999, and total
stockholders' equity was $5.9 billion. Equity as a percentage of assets was
6.95% at September 30, 1999, compared to 8.75% a year ago, reflecting the effect
of share repurchases. Since September 30, 1998, 51.9 million common shares were
repurchased at a total cost of $1.8 billion.

significant risks and uncertainties including changes in general economic and
financial market conditions and the Corporation's ability to execute its
