million, or $1.13 per fully diluted common share, compared with
net income of $76 million, or $1.40 per fully diluted common
share, including $28 million in tax benefits, for the same period
in 1994. Excluding tax benefits, net income for the third
quarter 1994 was $48 million, or $.89 per fully diluted common
share.
Also today, Midlantic Corporation's Board of Directors
declared a regular quarterly dividend of $.32 per share on the
Corporation's common stock. The dividend is payable November 13,
1995 to shareholders of record at the close of business on
November 1, 1995.
Highlights of the third quarter 1995 included:
* REGULATORY APPROVALS HAVE BEEN RECEIVED BY PNC BANK CORP.
TO PROCEED WITH THE MERGER WITH MIDLANTIC CORPORATION.
The merger, which will create one of the largest U.S.
banking companies with assets of nearly $78 billion, is
currently expected to be completed by year-end 1995,
pending approval by shareholders of both companies.
* NET INTEREST MARGIN ON A FULLY TAX-EQUIVALENT BASIS
REMAINED STRONG AT 5.33 PERCENt for the third quarter
1995, compared with 5.36 percent for the second quarter
1995, and 4.99 percent for the third quarter 1994. Net
interest income for the third quarter 1995 was $162
million, compared with $160 million for the second quarter
1995 and $152 million for the third quarter 1994.
* TOTAL NONACCRUAL LOANS AND OTHER REAL ESTATE OWNED (OREO)
DECLINED $6 MILLION TO $181 MILLION, A 3 PERCENT DECLINE
FROM JUNE 30, 1995, and a $112 million, or 38 percent,
decline from September 30, 1994.
* RESERVE COVERAGE FOR NONACCRUAL LOANS INCREASED TO 271
PERCENT from 263 percent at June 30, 1995, and 168 percent
at September 30, 1994. The reserve for loan losses as a
percent of total period-end loans was 3.89 percent at
September 30, 1995.
Commenting on third quarter results, Garry J. Scheuring,
Midlantic Corporation chairman, president and chief executive
officer, stated, "Midlantic continued to achieve strong financial
results during the third quarter, highlighted by a 27 percent
increase in earnings over the past year, excluding tax benefits
realized in 1994. We are concentrating our energies on
completing the merger with PNC Bank Corp. and planning intensely
for a smooth integration of our two companies in order to provide
uninterrupted delivery of the highest quality service for our
customers."
For the nine months ended September 30, 1995, the
Corporation reported net income of $171 million, or $3.14 per
fully diluted common share, compared with net income of $194
million, or $3.57 per fully diluted common share, for the same
period in 1994. Excluding tax benefits and nonrecurring charges
or gains, net income for the first nine months of 1994 was $122
million, or $2.25 per fully diluted common share.

compared with $8.656 billion and $8.231 billion at June 30, 1995
and September 30, 1994, respectively. The 7 percent increase in
net interest income for the third quarter 1995 compared with
third quarter 1994 reflected growth in most major loan
categories.

third quarter 1995 was 5.33 percent, compared with 5.36 percent
for the second quarter 1995 and 4.99 percent for third quarter

levels of nonaccruing assets and growth in the loan portfolio.
Net interest income for the nine months ended September 30,
1995 was $478 million, compared with $434 million for the same
period in 1994. On a tax-equivalent basis, net interest margin
