DWD SECOND QUARTER EARNINGS: $238.8 MILLION;
SIX-MONTH EARNINGS A RECORD $484.6 MILLION
NEW YORK, July 18 -- Dean Witter, Discover & Co. today reported second quarter
net income of $238.8 million, compared to $237.5 million for the second quarter
of 1995. Earnings per share were $1.39 on a fully diluted basis, a 3 percent
increase from $1.35 in the second quarter of last year. Net operating revenues
were $1.54 billion, an 8 percent advance over last year's second quarter $1.42
billion. Return on equity was 18.6 percent for the last twelve months.
Securities earnings climbed 40 percent to a record $135.4 million from
$96.9 million a year ago. It was Securities seventh consecutive quarter of
record earnings and an 11 percent increase from the first quarter of this year.
Securities net operating revenues of $858.9 million were also a quarterly
record. Credit Services earnings declined 26 percent to $103.4 million from
$140.6 million in last year's second quarter, largely as a result of increased
credit card write-offs.

"We're pleased with the strong, across-the-board growth in revenues, but
we're not pleased that our earnings increased only slightly," said Philip J.
Purcell, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "Quite clearly, the industry-
wide trend of rising credit card write-offs cut into our overall earnings. But
we continued to benefit from our balance -- we had great earnings growth in our
Securities business.
"As credit card delinquencies and bankruptcies have increased nationwide
over the last six months, " Purcell said, "we have taken steps designed to
offset these increased costs. We have significantly increased our collection
efforts, imposed new over-limit and higher late fees, and are considering
further price increases later this year. To improve credit quality for the
longer term, we have raised credit quality standards for new accounts and have
selectively reduced credit limits. We believe the actions that we've taken,
while having some impact in the year's first half, should have an increasing
effect as the year goes on. "
Net income for the first six months of 1996 reached a record $484.6
million, a 5 percent increase from $459.6 million for the first half of 1995.
Earnings per share increased 6 percent to $2.79 from $2.63 for the first half of
1995. Six month net operating revenues increased 11 percent to $3.09 billion.
SECURITIES
Record quarterly revenues in Securities were the result of continuing
strong growth in almost every part of this business:
. Commission revenues increased by 23 percent over last year's second quarter
to $303.8 million on higher equity, mutual fund and insurance product sales.
. Asset management and administration fees increased 14 percent to $285.8
million. Assets under management and administration rose to a record $84.6
billion, up $11.3 billion or 15 percent over the end of last year's second
quarter and up $5.1 billion for the first six months of the year.

<PAGE>
. The number of account executives rose by almost 110 during the quarter, to
reach a record 8,823 - an increase of more than 750 over last year's second
quarter end.
. Total client assets rose by $5.7 billion during the second quarter to an
all-time high of $234.2 billion. The 327,000 new accounts opened year-to-
date represent the highest six month total in Dean Witter's history.
Securities return on equity was 39 percent for the trailing twelve months.
Securities net operating revenues for the quarter increased 13 percent over the
second quarter of last year to a record $858.9 million, while operating expenses
increased by only 6 percent to $633.9 million. The quarter's profit margin
increased to a record 15.8 percent.
Dean Witter Securities did exceptionally well in the fourth annual Wall
Street Journal Research Analyst Survey, with 24 analysts achieving all-star
status. Dean Witter ranked second among all securities firms.
CREDIT SERVICES
Expanding Credit Services revenues were also driven by strong across-the-board
business growth:
. Managed loans increased by $5.3 billion to $32.4 billion, up 20 percent over a
year ago.
. Merchant and cardmember fees were $419.5 million, on a managed loan basis, up
40 percent from last year's second quarter. The increase was due to higher
transaction volume and to first quarter pricing actions.
. General purpose credit card accounts reached 37.7 million at quarter end, up
4.2 million or 13 percent, over a year ago.
-more-
<PAGE>
. The NOVUS Network of merchant establishments, serving the Discover, Private
Issue and BRAVO Cards, enrolled more than 125,000 locations during the
quarter - and now has enrolled more than 200,000 during the first six months
of the year.
Net interest income of $716.1 million rose 18 percent over the second quarter
of 1995 driven by loan growth of 20 percent.
Net operating revenues increased 3 percent to $682.8 million from the second
quarter of 1995 despite an 89 percent increase in the provision for loan losses.
The increase in the provision was primarily the result of higher write-offs.
Operating expenses increased 18 percent from the second quarter of last year to
$519.7 million.
"We continued to do a good job in growing our Credit Services business in
terms of receivables, new accounts and merchant locations. It continued to be a
very profitable business," said Purcell. "Our immediate challenge is to deal
with write-offs and to make sure our annual profits continue to grow."
