- ---------------------            V.P., Investor Relations  Dir., Media Relations
October 14, 1999                 (703) 205-1039            (703) 289-6809


                Capital One Reports Record Third Quarter Earnings

Falls  Church,  Va.,  (October 14, 1999) --- Capital One  Financial  Corporation
(NYSE: COF) today announced record third quarter 1999 earnings of $95.4 million,
or $.45 per share,  versus earnings of $70.0 million, or $.33 per share, for the
comparable  period in the prior year,  a 36 percent  increase.  All earnings per
share amounts  reflect the Company's  three-for-one  stock split  distributed on
June 1, 1999.

     "We're  extremely  proud of another  record quarter that  demonstrates  the
outstanding earnings power of our  Information-Based  Strategy," said Richard D.
Fairbank,  Capital  One's  Chairman and Chief  Executive  Officer.  "This is the
second-largest  quarter of account growth in our history and it puts us over the
20 million customer mark."

     During the third  quarter of 1999,  the  Company  added 1.6 million net new
accounts,  bringing  total  accounts to 20.8  million.  Third  quarter  revenue,
defined as managed net interest  income and  non-interest  income,  increased to
$999 million versus $927 million in the second quarter of 1999, and $705 million
for the  comparable  period in the prior year.  For the quarter,  Capital  One's
managed consumer loan balances increased by $657 million to $18.5 billion.

     The managed net interest  margin was 11.18  percent in the third quarter of
1999, an increase from 10.89  percent in the second  quarter of 1999,  and 10.15
percent in the  comparable  period of the prior year.  The increased  margin and
higher  non-interest  income contributed to the increase in risk adjusted margin
to 16.09  percent,  compared to 15.50 percent for the second quarter of 1999 and
11.68 percent for the comparable period of the prior year.

     The managed delinquency rate (30+ days) increased to 5.06 percent as of
September 30, 1999,  compared with 4.72 percent as of June 30, 1999. The managed
net  charge-off  rate  increased to 3.88  percent for the third  quarter of 1999
compared with 3.73 percent in the second quarter of 1999.

     "Our extraordinary growth is fueled by our robust investment in marketing,"
said Nigel W. Morris,  Capital  One's  President  and Chief  Operating  Officer.
"Thanks to our  surgically  targeted  marketing  approach  and our  conservative
approach to lending,  we  continue to reap the  benefits of the best  charge-off
rate in the industry."

     Marketing  investment  decreased  slightly in the third  quarter of 1999 to
$175 million versus $178 million in the second quarter of 1999, and $126 million
in the  comparable  period  of  the  prior  year.  Other  non-interest  expenses
(excluding  marketing)  for the third  quarter of 1999 were $456 million  versus
$430 million for the second  quarter of 1999, and $257 million in the comparable
period of the prior  year.  Operating  expenses  continue  to reflect  increased
investment in staff levels associated with the Company's growing account base.

     The  allowance  for loan  losses  increased  $40  million  during the third
quarter of 1999 to $306 million or 3.69 percent of on-balance sheet  receivables
as of September 30, 1999,  compared to 3.58 percent as of June 30, 1999. Capital
ratios  remained  strong as of September  30, 1999 at 13.50  percent of reported
assets and 7.12 percent of managed assets.

     Headquartered in Falls Church, Virginia,  Capital One Financial Corporation
(www.CapitalOne.com) is a holding company whose principal subsidiaries,  Capital
One Bank and Capital One, F.S.B., offer consumer lending products. Capital One's
subsidiaries  collectively  had 20.8  million  customers  and $18.5  billion  in
managed loans  outstanding  as of September 30, 1999,  and are among the largest
providers of MasterCard  and Visa credit cards in the world.  Capital One trades
on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "COF" and is included in the S&P
500 Index.  Earlier this year, Capital One ranked #41 in Fortune's list of "Best
Places to Work" and #15 best performer in Business Week's rating of the S&P 500.
