NEWS RELEASE
Fax Release: THURSDAY, JANUARY 10, 1995
BANKERS TRUST REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER NET INCOME OF $101 MILLION OR $1.19
PRIMARY EARNINGS PER SHARE
New York, January 19, 1995 -- Bankers Trust New York Corporation earned
$101 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1994, or $1.19 primary
earnings per share. The earnings compare with $169 million, or $1.98
primary earnings per share, for the third quarter of 1994 and $279 million,
or $3.26 primary earnings per share, in the fourth quarter of 1993, which
included a record $449 million of trading revenue.
For the full year 1994, the Corporation's net income was $615 million, or
$7.17 primary earnings per share. For the year ended December 31, 1993 the
Corporation earned $1.070 billion before cumulative effects of accounting
changes, or $12.40 primary earnings per share.
"The year's results were affected by persistently difficult market
conditions, which had a negative effect on trading revenue, while revenue
increased from the firm's client-related businesses that provide financing,
advisory and transaction processing services," said Bankers Trust Chairman
Charles S. Sanford, Jr.
Revenue
Net interest revenue totaled $229 million, down $144 million, or 39%, from
the fourth quarter of 1993. Excluding the past-due interest received from
Argentina during the fourth quarter of
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 2
1993, net interest revenue decreased by $115 million, or 33%. Of this
decline, $137 million was from trading-related net interest revenue,
as shown below.
The Corporation views trading revenue and trading-related net interest
revenue in combination, as quantified below (in millions):
<TABLE>

Revenue Revenue Total
<S> <C> <C> <C>
Fourth Quarter 1994 $49 $50 $99
Fourth Quarter 1993 $449 $187 $636
</TABLE>
This combined total for the fourth quarter of 1994 was $99 million, a
$291 million decrease from the third quarter of 1994 and a decline of
$537 million from the record results achieved in the fourth quarter of
1993. Many of the Firm's proprietary trading businesses, principally fixed
income instruments, recorded lower revenue during the period, as market
conditions remained generally unsettled. In addition, trading results
declined significantly in the emerging markets of Asia and Latin America.
During the current quarter the volume of traditional risk management
products slowed.
Fiduciary and funds management revenue totaled $177 million for the fourth
quarter, down $8 million, or 4%, from the same period last year. Lower
revenue from performance-based funds management fees were offset in part by
continued growth in global private banking assets under management.
Fees and commissions of $216 million increased by $24 million, or 13%, from
the fourth quarter of 1993. Corporate finance fees of $132 million
increased by $24 million to their highest level in
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 3
five years, due to higher revenue from loan syndication fees, offset in
part by lower fees from securities underwriting and leasing syndication fees.
The Corporation's securities available for sale gains were $21 million,
compared with investment securities losses of $2 million in the prior
year's fourth quarter.
Other noninterest revenue totaled $161 million, up $116 million from the
prior year's quarter. This increase was due to an increase in net revenue
from equity investment transactions, higher insurance premium revenue and
gains from the revaluation of non-trading foreign currency investments,
versus a loss in the prior year.
Expenses
Total noninterest expenses of $709 million decreased by $107 million, or
13%, from the fourth quarter of 1993. Incentive compensation and employee
benefits expense decreased $99 million, or 38%, due primarily to lower
bonus expense reflecting the reduced earnings. Salaries expense increased
$29 million, or 16%, from the fourth quarter of 1993. The average number
of employees increased by 6% versus the same period, to 14,432.
All other expenses totaled $338 million for the quarter, down $37 million,
or 10%, from last year's fourth quarter. This decline was due to a
decrease in other real estate expense, primarily resulting from a gain on
the sale of a foreclosed property, as well as a lower level of
contributions expense. This was offset in part by an increase in the
provision for policyholder benefits.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 4
Asset Quality
During the fourth quarter of 1994, $423 million of leveraged derivative
contracts were reclassified as receivables in the loan account and placed
on a cash basis. Of this amount, $72 million was subsequently charged-off
to the allowance for credit losses. Approximately one half of the
remainder related to transactions with Proctor and Gamble. With these
transfers and charge-offs, the Corporation has taken action on those
leveraged derivative transactions that likely will not perform according to
the contract and has charged-off the balances deemed to be uncollectible.
The provision for credit losses for the quarter was $8 million, compared
with $23 million in the prior year's fourth quarter. Net charge-offs for
the quarter were $85 million, compared with $184 million a year ago.
Nonrefinancing country net charge-offs for the fourth quarter of 1994
totaled $87 million. As mentioned above, this amount included charge-offs
of $72 million related to leveraged derivative transactions.
Cash basis loans increased by $303 million, or 44%, to $996 million during
the fourth quarter. This increase was primarily attributable to the above-
mentioned reclassifications of various leveraged derivative transactions.
The allowance for credit losses at December 31, 1994, was $1.252 billion,
representing 126% of cash basis loans.
The allowance for credit losses is available for credit losses arising from
the Corporation's portfolio, which is comprised of loans, credit-related
commitments, derivatives and other financial instruments. Credit losses
include credit charge-offs and losses on sales and swaps of refinancing
country loans held in the portfolio.
<PAGE>
<PAGE> 5
In the opinion of management, the allowance, when taken as a whole, is
adequate to absorb reasonably estimated credit losses inherent in the
Corporation's portfolio, as defined above.
Effects of Accounting Changes
During the fourth quarter of 1994, the Corporation adopted FASB
Interpretation No. 41, "Offsettings of Amounts Related to Certain
Repurchase and Reverse Repurchase Agreements." The Interpretation allows
the netting, under certain circumstances, of certain repurchase and reverse
repurchase agreements. It was the Corporation's former policy to record
such transactions on a gross basis on the balance sheet. As the result of
this adoption, at December 31, 1994, the Corporation's consolidated total
assets and total liabilities each decreased by $500 million. On January 1,
1994, the Corporation adopted FASB Interpretation No. 39, "Offsetting of
Amounts Related to Certain Contracts." The Interpretation requires that
unrealized gains and losses on swaps, forwards, options and similar
contracts be recognized as assets and liabilities, except where such gains
and losses arise from contracts covered by qualifying master netting
agreements. It was the Corporation's former policy to record such
unrealized gains and losses on a net basis on the balance sheet. As the
result of this adoption, at December 31, 1994, the Corporation's
consolidated total assets and total liabilities each increased by
$12 billion. In the first quarter of 1993, the Corporation adopted
accounting standards for postretirement benefits other than pensions
(SFAS 106) and postemployment benefits (SFAS 112).
Capital
The Corporation estimates that its ratios of Tier 1 Capital and Total
Capital to risk-adjusted assets were approximately 9.00% and 14.70%,
respectively, at December 31, 1994. The Leverage Ratio was 5.25% at that
same date.
