- ---------------------           V.P., Investor Relations   Dir., Media Relations
July 15, 1999                   (703) 205-1039             (703) 205-1180

               CAPITAL ONE REPORTS RECORD SECOND QUARTER EARNINGS

FALLS CHURCH, Va., (July 15, 1999) --- Capital One Financial  Corporation (NYSE:
COF) today  announced  record second quarter 1999 earnings of $87.5 million,  or
$.41 per share,  versus  earnings of $82.4 million,  or $.39 per share,  for the
first quarter of 1999 and $66.9 million,  or $.32 per share,  for the comparable
period in the prior year.  All earnings per share amounts  reflect the Company's
three-for-one stock split distributed on June 1, 1999.

         "Capital One is extremely  pleased to report record quarterly  earnings
once  again.  And we've  added more than one  million  customers  for the fourth
consecutive quarter," said Richard D. Fairbank, Capital One's Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer.  "This robust growth enables us to continue delivering strong
returns while investing in the future."

         The managed net charge-off rate decreased significantly to 3.73 percent
for the second quarter of 1999 versus 3.93 percent for the first quarter of 1999
and 5.91  percent  for the  comparable  period in the prior  year.  The  managed
delinquency  rate (30+ days)  increased  to 4.72  percent  as of June 30,  1999,
compared with 4.56 percent as of March 31, 1999.

         "For the seventh consecutive  quarter, our charge-off rate has declined
and continues to be the lowest among  industry  leaders,"  said Nigel W. Morris,
Capital One's President and Chief Operating Officer.  "We continue to be pleased
by our strong credit  performance and revenue  growth,  which have increased our
margins to record levels."

         The managed  net  interest  margin  increased  to 10.89  percent in the
second  quarter of 1999 versus  10.59  percent in the first  quarter of 1999 and
9.84 percent for the comparable  period in the prior year. The increased margin,
higher  non-interest  income and the aforementioned  decrease in net charge-offs
each  contributed  to the  increase in risk  adjusted  margin to 15.50  percent,
compared to 14.42  percent for the first  quarter of 1999 and 10.83  percent for
the comparable period of the prior year.

         During the second  quarter of 1999,  the Company  added 1.2 million net
new  accounts,  bringing  total  accounts to 19.2 million.  Second  quarter 1999
revenue, defined as managed net interest income and non-interest income, rose to
$927 million  versus $873 million in the first  quarter of 1999 and $653 million
for the  comparable  period in the prior year.  For the quarter,  Capital  One's
managed consumer loan balances increased by $416 million to $17.9 billion.

         Marketing  expense  for the second  quarter  of 1999 was a record  $178
million compared to $176 million in the first quarter of 1999 and $86 million in
the comparable period of the prior year. Other non-interest  expenses (excluding
marketing)  for the second quarter of 1999 were $430 million versus $374 million
for the first quarter of 1999 and $246 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 and investment in the
Internet.

         The  allowance  for loan losses  increased  by $15  million  during the
second  quarter of 1999 to $266  million or 3.58  percent  of  on-balance  sheet
receivables as of June 30, 1999,  compared to 3.46 percent as of March 31, 1999.
Capital ratios  remained strong as of June 30, 1999 at 14.19 percent of reported
assets and 7.15 percent of managed assets.

         The Company also announced that it will begin  reporting on America One
as a  separate  business  segment.  For  the  first  six  months  of  1999,  the
telecommunications  business  produced  an  operating  loss  (net  revenue  less
marketing and direct  expenses) of $57 million on gross revenues of $67 million.
"These  results  are  consistent  with  expectations  and  reflect  our  upfront
marketing  investment in this rapidly growing business," said Mr. Fairbank.  "In
response to aggressive competitive pricing, America One is significantly slowing
its  investment  in certain core  wireless  market  segments and, over time will
increase its  investment in market  segments that are generally not being served
by major wireless competitors."

     Headquartered in Falls Church, Virginia,  Capital One Financial Corporation
(www.CapitalOne.com) is a holding company whose principal subsidiaries,  Capital
