Achieves Positive Operating Leverage Compared to Both the First
Quarter of 2013 and the Second Quarter of 2012
BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
In announcing today's financial results, Joseph L. Hooley, State
Street's chairman, president and chief executive officer, said, “We
reported a strong second quarter with revenue growth driven by new
business and improved equity markets. Seasonal factors and increased
market volatility benefited our securities finance and foreign exchange
businesses. The second-quarter results also reflected our continued
success in realizing the expected benefits from our Business Operations
and Information Technology Transformation program and ongoing expense
management. Importantly, we achieved positive operating leverage
compared to both the first quarter of 2013 and the second quarter of
2012.
We remain focused on returning capital to our shareholders. During the
second quarter of 2013, we purchased approximately $560 million of our
common stock and have approximately $1.5 billion remaining on our March
2013 common stock purchase program authorizing the purchase of up to
$2.1 billion of our common stock through March 31, 2014."
Second-Quarter 2013 GAAP Results
- Earnings per common share (EPS) of $1.24 increased from $0.98
in both the first quarter of 2013 and the second quarter of 2012. EPS
in the first quarter of 2013 reflected the effects of $118 million of
equity incentive compensation expense, or $0.19 per share, for
retirement-eligible employees and payroll taxes.
- Net income available to common shareholders of $571 million
increased from $455 million in the first quarter of 2013 and increased
from $480 million in the second quarter of 2012.
- Revenue of $2.56 billion increased from $2.44 billion in the
first quarter of 2013 and increased from $2.42 billion in the second
quarter of 2012.
- Net interest revenue of $596 million increased from $576
million in the first quarter of 2013 and decreased from $672 million
in the second quarter of 2012.
- Expenses of $1.80 billion decreased from $1.83 billion in the
first quarter of 2013 and increased from $1.77 billion in the second
quarter of 2012.
- Return on average common shareholders' equity (ROE) of 11.3%
increased from 9.1% in the first quarter of 2013 and increased from
10.0% in the second quarter of 2012.
Second-Quarter 2013 Operating-Basis (Non-GAAP) Results(1)
- EPS of $1.24 increased 29% from $0.96 in the first quarter of
2013 and increased 23% from $1.01 in the second quarter of 2012. EPS
in the first quarter of 2013 reflected the effects of $118 million of
equity incentive compensation expense, or $0.19 per share, for
retirement-eligible employees and payroll taxes.
- Net income available to common shareholders of $571 million
increased from $443 million in the first quarter of 2013 and increased
from $494 million in the second quarter of 2012.
- Revenue of $2.58 billion increased from $2.47 billion in the
first quarter of 2013 and increased from $2.46 billion in the second
quarter of 2012.
- Net interest revenue on an operating basis was $582 million in
the second quarter of 2013, an increase from $577 million in the first
quarter of 2013, and a decrease from $629 million in the second
quarter of 2012. Net interest revenue on an operating basis excluded
discount accretion of $47 million, $31 million, and $74 million for
the quarters ended June 30, 2013, March 31, 2013, and June 30, 2012,
respectively.
- Expenses of $1.75 billion decreased from $1.81 billion in the
first quarter of 2013 and increased from $1.73 billion in the second
quarter of 2012.
- ROE of 11.3% increased from 8.9% in the first quarter of 2013
and from 10.3% in the second quarter of 2012.
Second-Quarter 2013 Operating-Basis (Non-GAAP) Highlights(1)
- Achieved positive operating leverage(2) of
771 basis points and 347 basis points compared to the first quarter of
2013 and the second quarter of 2012, respectively. Excluding the
effect of expenses related to equity incentive compensation for
retirement-eligible employees and payroll taxes recorded in the first
quarter of 2013, we achieved positive operating leverage of 97 basis
points compared to the first quarter of 2013.
- New business during the quarter totaled $201 billion in asset
servicing mandates and, excluding the SPDR® Gold ETF, $11
billion in net new assets to be managed at SSgA.(3)
- Business Operations and Information Technology Transformation
program(4) is on track to achieve total
incremental estimated pre-tax expense savings in 2013 of approximately
$220 million.
- Capital(5) Estimated pro forma Basel III tier
1 common ratio as of June 30, 2013 was 10.0% (standardized approach)
and 10.9% (advanced approach), each calculated in conformity with the
July 2013 final rule approved by the Federal Reserve. Under the final
rule, we expect to manage to the lower of these two Basel III tier 1
common ratios.
- Capital distribution remains a priority with purchases of
approximately $560 million of our common stock at an average price of
$65.73 per share; in addition, we declared a previously announced
quarterly common stock dividend of $0.26 per share.
(1) Operating basis is a non-GAAP presentation. For an
explanation of operating-basis information and related reconciliations,
refer to the addendum included with this news release.
(2) Operating leverage is defined as the rate of growth of
total revenue less the rate of growth of total expenses, each as
determined on an operating basis. Calculations of operating leverage
comparing the second quarter of 2013 to each of the first quarter of
2013 and the second quarter of 2012 are presented in the addendum
included with this news release. The comparisons to the first quarter of
2013 both include and exclude the effect of equity incentive
compensation expense for retirement-eligible employees and payroll taxes
recorded in the first quarter of 2013.
(3) Only a portion of such new mandates are reflected in our
assets under custody and administration and our assets under management
as of June 30, 2013. Distribution fees from the SPDR® Gold
Exchange-Traded Fund, or ETF, are recorded in brokerage and other fee
revenue and not in management fee revenue.
(4) Estimated pre-tax expense savings relate only to the
Business Operations and Information Technology Transformation program
and are based on projected improvement from total 2010 operating-basis
expenses. Actual total expenses of the Company have increased since
2010, and may increase or decrease in the future, due to other factors.
(5) Estimated pro forma Basel III tier 1 common ratios are
preliminary, reflect tier 1 common equity calculated under the July 2013
final rule as applicable on its January 1, 2014 effective date and are
based on State Street's present interpretations, expectations and
understanding of the final rule. Refer to the “Capital” section of this
news release for important information about the July 2013 final rule,
State Street's calculation of its tier 1 common ratio thereunder and
factors that could influence State Street's calculation of its tier 1
common ratio. Unless otherwise specified, all capital ratios referenced
in this news release refer to State Street Corporation and not State
Street Bank and Trust Company. Refer to the addendum included with this
news release for a further description of these ratios, and for
reconciliations applicable to State Street's tier 1 common ratio.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures

with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), management
also presents results on a non-GAAP, or operating basis, in order to
highlight comparable financial trends with respect to State Street's
business operations from period to period. Summary results presented on
a GAAP basis, descriptions of our non-GAAP, or operating-basis financial
measures, and reconciliations of operating-basis information to
GAAP-basis information are provided in the addendum included with this
news release.
The table below provides a summary of selected financial information and
key ratios for the indicated periods, presented on an operating
(non-GAAP) basis where noted. Amounts are presented in millions of

of our operating-basis financial information.
(2) Processing fees and other revenue for the second quarter
of 2013, first quarter of 2013 and second quarter of 2012, presented in
the table, included tax-equivalent adjustments of $34 million, $34
million and $33 million, respectively, related to tax credits generated
by tax-advantaged investments. GAAP-basis processing fees and other
revenue for these periods was $66 million, $60 million and $48 million,
respectively. The amount previously reported for the second quarter of
2012 has been adjusted for comparative purposes.
(3) Net interest revenue for the second quarter of 2013,
first quarter of 2013 and second quarter of 2012, presented in the
table, included tax-equivalent adjustments of $33 million, $32 million
and $31 million, respectively, and excluded conduit-related discount
accretion of $47 million, $31 million and $74 million, respectively.
GAAP-basis net interest revenue for these periods was $596 million, $576
million and $672 million, respectively. The Company expects to record
aggregate pre-tax conduit-related accretion of approximately $620
million in interest revenue from July 1, 2013 through the remaining
lives of the former conduit securities. This expectation is based on
numerous assumptions, including holding the securities to maturity,
anticipated pre-payment speeds, credit quality and sales.
Servicing fees increased 2.2% to $1.2 billion in the second
quarter of 2013 from the first quarter of 2013, due to net new business
and stronger global equity markets. Compared to the second quarter of
2012, servicing fees increased 10.6%, primarily due to stronger global
equity markets, net new business, and the acquired Goldman Sachs
Administration Services business.
Management fees increased 5.3% to $277 million in the second
quarter of 2013 from $263 million in the first quarter of 2013, and
increased 12.6% from $246 million in the second quarter of 2012. The
increases in both comparisons reflect stronger global equity markets and
net new business.
Trading services revenue, which includes foreign-exchange trading
revenue and brokerage and other fees, was $296 million in the second
quarter of 2013, up 5.3% from the first quarter of 2013 due to strength
in foreign-exchange partially offset by a decrease in distribution fees
associated with the SPDR® Gold ETF. Compared to the second
quarter of 2012, trading services revenue rose 16.1% due to an increase
in foreign-exchange trading. Foreign-exchange revenue increased
17.1% from the first quarter of 2013 and increased 32.6% from the second
quarter of 2012, with both increases due to higher volumes and
volatilities. Brokerage and other fees decreased 7.4% to $125
million from the first quarter of 2013, primarily due to a decrease in
distribution fees associated with the SPDR® Gold ETF.
Securities finance revenue was $131 million in the second quarter
of 2013, an increase of 67.9% from the first quarter of 2013 primarily
due to seasonality. Securities finance revenue decreased 8.4% from the
second quarter of 2012 primarily due to lower spreads.
Processing fees and other revenue in the second quarter of 2013
increased 6.4% and 23.5% from the first quarter of 2013 and the second
quarter of 2012, respectively. The increases in both comparisons include
a $20 million gain from the sale of an investment from one of the
company's joint ventures recorded in the second quarter of 2013.
Operating-basis net interest revenue of $582 million in the
second quarter of 2013 increased 0.9% from $577 million in the first
quarter of 2013 primarily due to $7 million in additional interest
revenue associated with a commercial real estate loan pay-down.
Operating-basis net interest revenue in the second quarter of 2013
decreased 7.5% from $629 million in the second quarter of 2012 due to
lower yields on earning assets partially offset by lower liability costs.
Net interest margin, including balances held at the Federal
Reserve and other central banks, remained unchanged from the first
quarter of 2013 at 131 basis points. Compared to the second quarter of
2012, net interest margin decreased from 154 basis points, due to lower
yields on earning assets and higher central bank balances.

(1) Compensation and employee benefits expenses in the first
quarter of 2013 included $118 million related to equity incentive
compensation for retirement-eligible employees and payroll taxes.
(2) Refer to the addendum included with this news release for
explanations of our non-GAAP financial measures and for reconciliations
of our operating-basis financial information.
Compensation and employee benefits expenses decreased 11.4% in
the second quarter of 2013 from the first quarter of 2013, primarily due
to the effect of the $118 million of equity incentive compensation
expense for retirement-eligible employees and payroll taxes recorded in
the first quarter of 2013. Compared to the second quarter of 2012,
compensation and employee benefits expenses decreased 2.7%, primarily
due to savings associated with the execution of the Business Operations
and Information Technology Transformation program, partially offset by
expenses associated with new business and acquisitions.
Information systems and communications expenses were $235 million
in the second quarter of 2013, down 0.8% from the first quarter of 2013.
Compared to the second quarter of 2012, information systems and
communications expenses increased 13.0%, primarily related to the
planned transition of certain functions to service providers as part of
the Business Operations and Information Technology Transformation
program, as well as costs to support new business.
Transaction processing services expenses increased 3.3% to $186
million in the second quarter of 2013 from $180 million in the first
quarter of 2013. Compared to the second quarter of 2012, transaction
processing services increased 8.1%. The increases in both comparisons
reflected higher equity market values and higher transaction volumes in
the asset servicing business.
Other expenses increased 23.4% to $301 million in the second
quarter of 2013 from $244 million in the first quarter of 2013 primarily
due to higher professional services fees, sales promotion and legal
costs. Compared to the second quarter of 2012, other expenses increased
3.4%.
Income Taxes
The effective tax rate on second-quarter 2013 GAAP-basis earnings
was 24.0%, compared to 23.8% in the first quarter of 2013 and down from
24.9% in the second quarter of 2012. The effective tax rate on
second-quarter 2013 operating-basis earnings was 23.9%, compared to
23.6% in the first quarter of 2013 and down from 24.7% in the second
quarter of 2012. Our effective tax rate on operating-basis earnings for
the full-year 2013 is expected to be approximately 22% to 24%.

of these ratios, and for reconciliations applicable to State Street's

(2) On July 2, 2013, the Federal Reserve approved a rule
intended to finalize its implementation of the Basel III framework in
the U.S. The final rule consolidates, with revisions, three separate
Notices of Proposed Rulemaking, or NPRs, originally issued by the
Federal Reserve in June 2012. State Street's transition period with
respect to the final rules has not yet commenced. Under the final rule,
State Street expects to manage to the lower of its tier 1 common ratio
calculated under the Basel III standardized approach, referred to as the
standardized approach, and under the Basel III advanced approach,
referred to as the advanced approach. These calculations differ from
those in conformity with the June 2012 NPRs.
The estimated pro forma Basel III tier 1 common ratio presented in the
table above as of June 30, 2013 is a preliminary estimate by State
Street, calculated pursuant to the standardized approach in accordance
with the July 2013 final rule. State Street has also preliminarily
estimated, at 10.9%, its June 30, 2013 pro forma Basel III tier 1 common
ratio calculated pursuant to the advanced approach in accordance with
the July 2013 final rule. The ratio calculated under the standardized
approach is lower than the ratio calculated under the advanced approach
and is therefore presented in the table above. Each of these
calculations is preliminary, reflects tier 1 common equity calculated
under the final rule as applicable on its January 1, 2014 effective date
and is based on State Street's present interpretations, expectations and
understanding of the final rule. The estimated pro forma Basel III tier
1 common ratios presented in the table above as of March 31, 2013 and
June 30, 2012 are estimates by State Street, calculated pursuant to the
advanced approach in accordance with the June 2012 NPRs. Each of these
calculations is based on State Street's present interpretations and
understanding of the June 2012 NPRs.
The estimated pro forma Basel III tier 1 common ratio as of June 30,
2013, calculated pursuant to the advanced approach in conformity with
the July 2013 final rule, reflects calculations and determinations with
respect to State Street's capital and related matters as of June 30,
2013, based on State Street and external data, quantitative formulae,
statistical models, historical correlations and assumptions,
collectively referred to as “advanced systems,” in effect and used by
State Street's advanced systems for those purposes as of July 19, 2013.
Significant components of these advanced systems involve the exercise of
judgment by State Street and its regulators, and its advanced systems
may not accurately represent or calculate the scenarios, circumstances,
outputs or other results for which they are designed or intended. Due to
the influence of changes in these advanced systems, whether resulting
from changes in data inputs, regulation or regulatory supervision or
interpretation, State Street-specific or market activities or
experiences or other updates or factors, State Street expects that its
advanced systems and its capital ratios calculated in conformity with
the Basel III framework will change and may be volatile over time, and
that those latter changes or volatility could be material as calculated
and measured from period to period. Refer to the addendum included with
this news release for information concerning the specified capital
ratios and for reconciliations of State Street's estimated pro forma
Basel III tier 1 common ratios to the tier 1 common ratio calculated
using currently applicable regulatory requirements under Basel I rules.
The following table presents the primary elements of the transition, as
described in note (2) to the preceding table, from State Street's March
31, 2013 presentation of its estimated pro forma Basel III tier 1 common
ratio, calculated in conformity with the June 2012 NPRs (advanced
approach), to the estimated pro forma Basel III tier 1 common ratio as
of June 30, 2013, calculated in conformity with the July 2013 Basel III
final rule (advanced approach):

Common Stock Dividend and Share Purchase Program
The Company purchased approximately 8.5 million shares of its common
stock at a total cost of approximately $560 million and an average price
of $65.73 per share in the second quarter of 2013 and also declared a
quarterly common stock dividend of $0.26 per share.
Additional Information
All earnings per share amounts represent fully diluted earnings per
common share. Return on average common shareholders' equity is
determined by dividing annualized net income available to common equity
by average common shareholders' equity for the period. Operating-basis
return on average common equity utilizes annualized operating-basis net
income available to common equity in the calculation.

United States securities laws, including statements relating to our
goals and expectations regarding our business, financial and capital
condition, results of operations, investment portfolio performance and
strategies, the financial and market outlook, governmental and

Forward-looking statements are often, but not always, identified by such
forward-looking terminology as "plan," "expect," "look," "believe,"
"anticipate," "estimate," "seek," "may," "will," "trend," "target,"
"strategy" and "goal," or similar statements or variations of such
terms. These statements are not guarantees of future performance, are
inherently uncertain, are based on current assumptions that are
difficult to predict and involve a number of risks and uncertainties.
Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what
is expressed in those statements, and those statements should not be
relied upon as representing our expectations or beliefs as of any date
subsequent to July 19, 2013.
Important factors that may affect future results and outcomes include,
but are not limited to:
-
the financial strength and continuing viability of the counterparties
with which we or our clients do business and to which we have
investment, credit or financial exposure, including, for example, the
direct and indirect effects on counterparties of the current
sovereign-debt risks in Europe and other regions;
-
financial market disruptions or economic recession, whether in the
U.S., Europe, Asia or other regions;
-
increases in the volatility of, or declines in the level of, our net
interest revenue, changes in the composition of the assets recorded in
our consolidated statement of condition (and our ability to measure
the fair value of investment securities) and the possibility that we
may change the manner in which we fund those assets;
-
the liquidity of the U.S. and international securities markets,
particularly the markets for fixed- income securities and inter-bank
credits, and the liquidity requirements of our clients;
-
the level and volatility of interest rates and the performance and
volatility of securities, credit, currency and other markets in the
U.S. and internationally;
-
the credit quality, credit-agency ratings and fair values of the
securities in our investment securities portfolio, a deterioration or
downgrade of which could lead to other-than-temporary impairment of
the respective securities and the recognition of an impairment loss in
our consolidated statement of income;
-
our ability to attract deposits and other low-cost, short-term
funding, and our ability to deploy deposits in a profitable manner
consistent with our liquidity requirements and risk profile;
-
the manner and timing with which the Federal Reserve and other U.S.
and foreign regulators implement the Dodd-Frank Act, the Basel II and
Basel III capital and liquidity standards, and European legislation
with respect to the levels of regulatory capital we must maintain, our
credit exposure to third parties, margin requirements applicable to
derivatives, banking and financial activities and other regulatory
initiatives in the U.S. and internationally, including regulatory
developments that result in changes to our structure or operating
model, increased costs or other changes to how we provide services;
-
adverse changes in the regulatory capital ratios that we are required
to meet, whether arising under the Dodd-Frank Act, the Basel II or
Basel III capital and liquidity standards or due to changes in
regulatory positions, practices or regulations in jurisdictions in
which we engage in banking activities, including changes in internal
or external data, formulae, models, assumptions or other advanced
systems used in calculating our capital ratios that cause changes in
those ratios as they are measured from period to period;
-
increasing requirements to obtain the prior approval of the Federal
Reserve or our other regulators for the use, allocation or
distribution of our capital or other specific capital actions or
programs, including acquisitions, dividends and equity purchases,
without which our growth plans, distributions to shareholders, equity
purchase programs or other capital initiatives may be restricted;
-
changes in law or regulation that may adversely affect our business
activities or those of our clients or our counterparties, and the
products or services that we sell, including additional or increased
taxes or assessments thereon, capital adequacy requirements, margin
requirements and changes that expose us to risks related to the
adequacy of our controls or compliance programs;
-
our ability to promote a strong culture of risk management, operating
controls, compliance oversight and governance that meet our
expectations or those of our clients and our regulators;
-
the credit agency ratings of our debt and depository obligations and
investor and client perceptions of our financial strength;
-
delays or difficulties in the execution of our previously announced
Business Operations and Information Technology Transformation program,
which could lead to changes in our estimates of the charges, expenses
or savings associated with the planned program and may cause
volatility of our earnings;
-
the results of, and costs associated with, government investigations,
litigation, and similar claims, disputes, or proceedings;
-
the possibility that our clients will incur substantial losses in
investment pools for which we act as agent, and the possibility of
significant reductions in the valuation of assets underlying those
pools;
-
adverse publicity or other reputational harm;
-
dependencies on information technology, complexities and costs of
protecting the security of our systems and difficulties with
protecting our intellectual property rights;
-
our ability to grow revenue, control expenses, attract and retain
highly skilled people and raise the capital necessary to achieve our
business goals and comply with regulatory requirements;
-
potential changes to the competitive environment, including changes
due to regulatory and technological changes, the effects of industry
consolidation, and perceptions of State Street as a suitable service
provider or counterparty;
-
potential changes in how and in what amounts clients compensate us for
our services, and the mix of services provided by us that clients
choose;
-
the ability to complete acquisitions, joint ventures and divestitures,
including the ability to obtain regulatory approvals, the ability to
arrange financing as required and the ability to satisfy closing
conditions;
-
the risks that acquired businesses and joint ventures will not achieve
their anticipated financial and operational benefits or will not be
integrated successfully, or that the integration will take longer than
anticipated, that expected synergies will not be achieved or
unexpected disynergies will be experienced, that client and deposit
retention goals will not be met, that other regulatory or operational
challenges will be experienced and that disruptions from the
transaction will harm our relationships with our clients, our
employees or regulators;
-
our ability to recognize emerging needs of our clients and to develop
products that are responsive to such trends and profitable to us, the
performance of and demand for the products and services we offer, and
the potential for new products and services to impose additional costs
on us and expose us to increased operational risk;
-
our ability to anticipate and manage the level and timing of
redemptions and withdrawals from our collateral pools and other
collective investment products;
-
our ability to control operating risks, data security breach risks,
information technology systems risks and outsourcing risks, and our
ability to protect our intellectual property rights, the possibility
of errors in the quantitative models we use to manage our business and
the possibility that our controls will prove insufficient, fail or be
circumvented;
-
changes in accounting standards and practices; and
-
changes in tax legislation and in the interpretation of existing tax
laws by U.S. and non-U.S. tax authorities that affect the amount of
taxes due.
Other important factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those indicated by any forward-looking statements are
set forth in our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K and our subsequent SEC
filings. We encourage investors to read these filings, particularly the
sections on risk factors, for additional information with respect to any
forward-looking statements and prior to making any investment decision.
The forward-looking statements contained in this news release speak only
as of the date hereof, July 19, 2013, and we do not undertake efforts to
