greater understanding of the Bancorp's capital structure and
financial condition. See the Regulation G Non-GAAP Reconciliation
table for a reconciliation of these ratios to U.S. GAAP.

(c) Under the banking agencies' Basel III Final Rule, assets and
credit equivalent amounts of off-balance sheet exposures are
calculated according to the standardized approach for risk-weighted
assets. The resulting values are added together resulting in the
Bancorp's total risk-weighted assets used in the calculation of the
tier I risk-based capital and common equity tier 1 ratios beginning
January 1, 2015. Current period regulatory capital ratios are
estimated.

“Our results this quarter were solid despite the impact of expected
first quarter seasonality and challenging market conditions, and reflect
the strength of our franchise in generating strong shareholder returns
resulting from our strategic decisions to build and invest in our
businesses. We are very focused on growing businesses that will operate
profitably in all environments by deepening our relationships with
customers and managing our risk exposures to achieve optimal returns for
our shareholders. Our quarterly results include the significant value
that we have achieved in our Vantiv investment and the gain on the sale
of our TDR loans, which is another step toward reducing future sources
of potential volatility,” said Kevin Kabat, CEO of Fifth Third Bancorp.
“First quarter net income of $382 million, which reflected record
investment advisory revenue and solid mortgage banking revenue growth,
produced an ROA of 1.12% and ROE of 10.3%. These results included the
impact of the NII decline associated with the changes in our deposit
advance product in the quarter.
“Our loan growth, especially in the C&I category, was weaker at the end
of last year which impacted the starting balances early in the quarter,
but we were encouraged by better activity in February and March. Average
loans increased 2 percent compared with the year ago quarter with
continued strength in C&I lending, which was up 3 percent, and growth in
commercial real estate and bankcard loans of 4 percent each.
“Credit results were very good, resulting in net charge-offs of 41 bps
for the quarter, with commercial loan net charge-offs of 29 bps and
consumer loan net charge-offs of 59 bps. Total delinquencies also
continued to be at very low levels and were highlighted by total
non-performing assets, which were down 11 percent compared with last
quarter.
“Average core deposits were up 2 percent sequentially, with 6 percent
growth in interest checking, and were up 7 percent year over year, with
demand deposit growth of 10 percent.
“During the quarter, we received a non-objection from the Federal
Reserve for our 2015 CCAR plan. That plan demonstrates the strength of
Fifth Third’s current capital levels and our resiliency under stress
conditions. We are pleased to be able to continue the measured return of
capital to shareholders under our 2015 CCAR plan.”

Net interest income of $852 million on a fully taxable equivalent basis
decreased $36 million from the fourth quarter, as expected, primarily
driven by a $21 million negative impact of the previously announced
changes to the Bancorp’s deposit advance product that were effective
January 1, 2015. Additionally, net interest income was negatively
impacted by $13 million due to fewer days in the quarter. Otherwise, the
effects of lower deposit costs and increased investment securities
balances generally offset the negative effect of loan repricing during
the quarter.
The net interest margin was 2.86 percent, a decrease of 10 bps from the
previous quarter primarily driven by a 7 basis point impact due to the
changes to the deposit advance product, 3 basis point impact of loan
repricing and 2 basis point impact of higher cash balances as we
continue to experience strong deposit flows. Day count benefitted the
net interest margin by 3 basis points in the quarter.
Compared with the first quarter of 2014, net interest income decreased
$46 million and the net interest margin decreased 36 bps. The decline in
net interest income was driven by the effect of the aforementioned
changes to the deposit advance product as well as continued loan
repricing. Otherwise, the impact of higher investment securities
balances and loan balances generally offset the impact of higher
interest expense resulting from increased long-term debt balances. The
decline in the net interest margin was primarily driven by the impact of
loan repricing.
Securities
Average securities and other short-term investments were $29.0 billion
in the first quarter of 2015 compared with $27.6 billion in the previous
quarter and $22.9 billion in the first quarter of 2014. Average
securities of $23.2 billion increased $733 million from the prior
quarter reflecting purchases of securities. Other short-term investments
average balances of $5.9 billion increased $701 million sequentially. On
an end of period basis, securities balances of $27.0 billion increased
$4.0 billion driven by purchases of securities towards the end of the
quarter and other short-term investments decreased $3.0 billion
reflecting lower cash balances held at the Federal Reserve.

Average loan and lease balances (excluding loans held-for-sale)
decreased $533 million, or 1 percent, sequentially and increased $978
million, or 1 percent, from the first quarter of 2014. The sequential
decrease in average loans and leases was primarily driven by declines in
residential mortgage due to the transfer of certain residential mortgage
loans classified as troubled debt restructurings to held-for-sale at the
end of the fourth quarter of 2014, which reduced average loans by $694
million. The increase from the prior year was driven by increased
commercial and industrial (C&I) balances. Period end loans and leases
(excluding loans held-for-sale) of $91.2 billion increased $1.2 billion
sequentially, and increased $1.5 billion, or 2 percent, from a year ago
primarily driven by increases in C&I loans.
Average commercial portfolio loan and lease balances increased $313
million, or 1 percent, sequentially and increased $1.5 billion, or 3
percent, from the first quarter of 2014. Average C&I loans increased
$149 million from the prior quarter and increased $1.0 billion from the
first quarter of 2014. Within commercial real estate, average commercial
mortgage balances continued to decline and average commercial
construction balances increased for the ninth consecutive quarter. In
total, average commercial real estate balances increased $49 million
sequentially and $341 million from the prior year. Commercial line
usage, on an end of period basis, was 32 percent of committed lines in
the first quarter of 2015 compared with 32 percent in the fourth quarter
of 2014 and 30 percent in the first quarter of 2014.
Average consumer portfolio loan and lease balances decreased $846
million, or 2 percent, sequentially and decreased $520 million, or 1
percent, year-over-year. Average residential mortgage loans decreased 5
percent sequentially and 2 percent from a year ago driven by loans
transferred to held for sale at the end of the fourth quarter. Average
auto loans declined 1 percent on a sequential and year-over-year basis.
Average home equity loans declined 2 percent sequentially and 4 percent
from the first quarter of 2014. Average credit card loans were flat
sequentially and increased 4 percent from the first quarter of 2014.
Average loans held-for-sale balances of $1.2 billion increased $611
million sequentially primarily due to the transfer of certain
residential mortgage loans classified as troubled debt restructurings to
held-for-sale in the fourth quarter of 2014 and increased $443 million
compared with the first quarter of 2014. Period end loans held-for-sale
of $724 million decreased $537 million from the previous quarter due to
$568 million of residential mortgage loans subsequently sold in the
first quarter and decreased $56 million from the first quarter of 2014.

Average core deposits increased $1.8 billion sequentially and increased
$6.7 billion, or 7 percent, from the first quarter of 2014. Average
transaction deposits increased $1.8 billion from the fourth quarter of
2014 primarily driven by higher interest checking, money market account,
and demand deposit balances, partially offset by lower foreign office
balances. Year-over-year transaction deposits increased $6.3 billion, or
7 percent, driven by higher money market account, demand deposit, and
interest checking balances, partially offset by lower savings and
foreign office balances. Other time deposits increased 2 percent
sequentially and 11 percent compared with the first quarter of 2014.
Average commercial transaction deposits increased 1 percent sequentially
and 8 percent from the previous year. Sequential performance reflected
higher interest checking balances partially offset by lower foreign
office balances. Year-over-year growth reflected higher demand deposit,
interest checking, and money market account balances as customers are
holding higher balances partially offset by lower foreign office
balances.
Average consumer transaction deposits increased 2 percent sequentially
and increased 6 percent from the first quarter of 2014. The sequential
performance reflected higher money market account, interest checking,
and demand deposit balances partially offset by lower savings balances.
Year-over-year growth was driven by increased money market account and
demand deposit balances partially offset by lower savings and interest
checking balances.

Average wholesale funding of $18.9 billion decreased $590 million, or 3
percent, sequentially and increased $661 million, or 4 percent, compared
with the first quarter of 2014. The sequential decrease was driven by a
decrease in long-term debt due to $500 million of bank-level
subordinated debt that matured during the quarter as well as a decrease
in certificates $100,000 and over, partially offset by an increase in
other short-term borrowings. The year-over-year increase in average
wholesale funding reflected an increase in long-term debt due to
issuances during 2014, partially offset by a decrease in certificates
$100,000 and over, federal funds purchased, and other short-term
borrowings.

Noninterest income of $660 million increased $7 million sequentially and
$96 million compared with prior year results. These comparisons reflect
the impacts described below.
For the quarters ending March 31, 2015, December 31, 2014, and March 31,
2014, the impacts of Vantiv warrant valuation adjustments were a
positive $70 million, positive $56 million, and negative $36 million,
respectively. Quarterly results also included the impact of valuation
adjustments of the Visa total return swap of negative $17 million,
negative $19 million, and positive $1 million in the first quarter of
2015, the fourth quarter of 2014, and the first quarter of 2014,
respectively. First quarter 2015 also included a $37 million gain on the
sale of held-for-sale residential mortgage loans classified as troubled
debt restructurings. Excluding these items and net securities gains in
all periods, noninterest income of $566 million decreased $46 million,
or 8 percent, from the previous quarter and decreased $26 million, or 4
percent, from the first quarter of 2014. The sequential decrease was
primarily due to the $23 million annual payment recognized from Vantiv
pursuant to the tax receivable agreement in the fourth quarter of 2014
and a decrease in corporate banking revenue, partially offset by
increased mortgage banking revenue. The year-over-year decline was
primarily due to lower mortgage banking net revenue and corporate
banking revenue.
Service charges on deposits of $135 million, which were seasonally low
in the first quarter, decreased 5 percent from the fourth quarter and
increased 2 percent compared with the same quarter last year. The
sequential decline was due to a 9 percent decrease in retail service
charges due to lower overdraft occurrences as well as a 2 percent
decrease in commercial service charges.
Corporate banking revenue of $92 million decreased $28 million from the
fourth quarter of 2014 and $12 million from the first quarter of 2013.
The sequential decrease was primarily due to a $21 million decline in
syndication fees as a result of decreased activity in the market in the
current quarter and compared with strong fourth quarter results, as well
as a decline in business lending fees. The year-over-year decrease was
driven by lower syndication fees, institutional sales revenue, and lease
remarketing fees, partially offset by an increase in foreign exchange
fees.
Mortgage banking net revenue was $86 million in the first quarter of
2015, up 40 percent from the fourth quarter of 2014 and down 21 percent
from the first quarter of 2014. First quarter 2015 originations were
$1.8 billion, compared with $1.7 billion in the previous quarter and
$1.7 billion in the first quarter of 2014. First quarter 2015
originations resulted in gains of $44 million on mortgages sold,
compared with gains of $36 million during the previous quarter and $41
million during the first quarter of 2014. The sequential and
year-over-year increases were primarily driven by higher gain on sale
margins due to increased refinance activity during the quarter given the
low rate environment and slightly higher production. Mortgage servicing
fees were $59 million this quarter, $60 million in the fourth quarter of
2014, and $62 million in the first quarter of 2014. Mortgage banking net
revenue is also affected by net servicing asset valuation adjustments,
which include mortgage servicing rights (MSR) amortization and MSR
valuation adjustments (including mark-to-market adjustments on
free-standing derivatives used to economically hedge the MSR portfolio).
These net servicing asset valuation adjustments were negative $17
million in the first quarter of 2015 (reflecting MSR amortization of $34
million and MSR valuation adjustments of positive $17 million); negative
$34 million in the fourth quarter of 2014 (MSR amortization of $32
million and MSR valuation adjustments of negative $2 million); and
positive $6 million in the first quarter of 2014 (MSR amortization of
$22 million and MSR valuation adjustments of positive $28 million). The
mortgage servicing asset, net of the valuation reserve, was $788 million
at quarter end on a servicing portfolio of $64 billion.
Investment advisory revenue of $108 million increased 7 percent from the
fourth quarter and increased 6 percent year-over-year. The sequential
increase was attributable to higher tax-related private client services
revenue, which is seasonally stronger in the first quarter, as well as
an increase in securities and brokerage fees due to a continued shift
from transaction-based fees to recurring revenue streams. The
year-over-year increase reflected an increase in personal asset
management fees due to market-related growth and an increase in
securities and brokerage fees.
Card and processing revenue of $71 million in the first quarter of 2015
decreased 6 percent sequentially and increased 5 percent from the first
quarter of 2014. The sequential decrease reflected lower transaction
volumes compared with seasonally strong fourth quarter volumes. The
year-over-year increase reflects an increase in the number of actively
used cards and an increase in customer spend volume.
Other noninterest income totaled $164 million in the first quarter of
2015, compared with $150 million in the previous quarter and $41 million
in the first quarter of 2014. As previously described, the results
included the impact of Vantiv warrant valuation adjustments, the gain on
sale of troubled debt restructurings, and charges related to the
valuation of the Visa total return swap. Excluding these items, other
noninterest income of $74 million decreased approximately $39 million,
or 35 percent, from the fourth quarter of 2014 and decreased
approximately $2 million, or 3 percent, from the first quarter of 2014.
The sequential decrease was primarily due to payments recognized from
Vantiv pursuant to the tax receivable agreement of $23 million in the
fourth quarter of 2014 as well as normal seasonality in Vantiv’s
business as reflected in our equity method of earnings.
Net gains on investment securities were $4 million in the first quarter
of 2015, compared with $4 million in the previous quarter and $7 million
in the first quarter of 2014.

Noninterest expense of $923 million increased 1 percent compared with
the fourth quarter of 2014 and decreased 3 percent compared with the
first quarter of 2014.
First quarter 2015 expenses included $2 million in charges to litigation
reserves, compared with a $3 million reversal of litigation reserves in
the fourth quarter of 2014 and $51 million in charges to litigation
reserves in the first quarter of 2014. Excluding these items,
noninterest expense of $921 million was flat sequentially and increased
$22 million, or 2 percent, year-over-year. The sequential comparison was
affected by a seasonal increase in FICA and unemployment tax expense
recorded in employee benefits, partially offset by lower credit-related
costs and the year-over-year increase reflected higher incentive-based
compensation expense and increased credit-related costs.
Credit costs related to problem assets recorded as noninterest expense
totaled $14 million in the first quarter of 2015, compared with $33
million in the fourth quarter of 2014, and $9 million in the first
quarter of 2014. Credit-related expenses included provision for mortgage
repurchases that was an immaterial amount in the first quarter of 2015
and the fourth quarter of 2014 and $3 million in the first quarter of
2014. (Realized mortgage repurchase losses were $3 million in the first
quarter of 2015, compared with $2 million in the fourth quarter of 2014,
and $10 million in the first quarter of 2014.) Provision for unfunded
commitments was a benefit of $4 million in the current quarter, compared
with an expense of $1 million last quarter and a benefit of $9 million a
year ago. Derivative valuation adjustments related to customer credit
risk were positive $2 million for the current quarter, negative $10
million in the fourth quarter, and positive $2 million for the year ago
quarter. OREO expense was $7 million, compared with $4 million last
quarter and $5 million a year ago. Other problem asset-related expenses
were $13 million in the first quarter, compared with $17 million in the
previous quarter, and $13 million in the same period last year.

Net charge-offs were $91 million, or 41 bps of average loans on an
annualized basis, in the first quarter of 2015 compared with net
charge-offs of $191 million, or 83 bps, in the fourth quarter of 2014
and $168 million, or 76 bps, in the first quarter of 2014. For
comparison purposes, the fourth quarter of 2014 net charge-offs included
$87 million (38 bps) related to the transfer of certain residential
mortgage loans classified as troubled debt restructurings to
held-for-sale and the first quarter of 2014 included three large credits
that together resulted in combined charge-offs of $60 million (27 bps).
Commercial net charge-offs were $39 million, or 29 bps, and were down
$16 million sequentially. C&I net charge-offs of $38 million decreased
$6 million from the previous quarter and commercial real estate net
charge-offs decreased $9 million from the previous quarter.
Consumer net charge-offs were $52 million, or 59 bps, down $84 million
sequentially. Excluding consumer net charge-offs of $87 million related
to the transfer of certain residential mortgage loans classified as
troubled debt restructurings to held-for-sale in the fourth quarter of
2014, consumer net charge-offs were up $3 million sequentially. Net
charge-offs on residential mortgage loans in the portfolio were $6
million, down $88 million from the previous quarter primarily reflecting
the impact of the charge-offs in the fourth quarter of 2014 mentioned
above. Home equity net charge-offs were $14 million, up $3 million from
the fourth quarter of 2014, and net charge-offs in the auto portfolio of
$8 million were up $1 million compared with the prior quarter. Net
charge-offs on consumer credit card loans were $21 million, up $1
million from the fourth quarter. Net charge-offs on other consumer loans
were $3 million, down $1 million compared with the previous quarter.

Provision for loan and lease losses totaled $69 million in the first
quarter of 2015 and decreased $30 million from the fourth quarter of
2014 and was flat from the first quarter of 2014. The decrease from the
prior quarter was driven by the $23 million impact in the fourth quarter
of 2014 related to the transfer of certain residential mortgage loans
classified as troubled debt restructurings to held-for-sale. The
allowance for loan and lease losses declined $22 million sequentially
reflecting the portfolio’s overall risk profile and charges to the
allowance. The allowance represented 1.42 percent of total loans and
leases outstanding as of quarter end, compared with 1.47 percent last
quarter, and represented 247 percent of nonperforming loans and leases,
and 188 percent of nonperforming assets.

These ratios have been included herein to facilitate a greater
understanding of the Bancorp's capital structure and financial
condition. See the Regulation G Non-GAAP Reconciliation table for a
reconciliation of these ratios to U.S. GAAP.
|
|
(b)
|
Under the banking agencies Basel III Final Rule, assets and
credit equivalent amounts of off-balance sheet exposures are
calculated based upon the standardized approach for risk-weighted
assets. The resulting values are added together resulting in the
Bancorp's total risk-weighted assets.
|
|
(c)
|
Current period regulatory capital ratios are estimated.
|
|
(d)
|
These capital ratios were calculated under the Supervisory
Agencies general risk-based capital rules (Basel I) which was in
effect prior to January 1, 2015.
|
Capital ratios remained strong during the quarter, reflecting growth in
retained earnings, the payment of preferred dividends, and share
repurchase activity. The common equity Tier 1 ratio was 9.62 percent,
the tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio* was 8.41 percent
(excluding unrealized gains/losses), and 8.78 percent (including
unrealized gains/losses). The Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio was 10.74
percent, the total risk-based capital ratio was 14.16 percent, and the
Leverage ratio was 9.61 percent.
The Basel III Final Rule was effective for the Fifth Third on January 1,
2015, subject to phase-in periods for certain of its components and
other provisions. Transition provisions apply to the minimum regulatory
capital ratios; regulatory capital adjustments and deductions; and
non-qualifying capital instruments. Transition provisions for the
regulatory capital adjustments and deductions will change the amount
deducted from capital each calendar year until the transition period
ends. As of March 31, 2015, Fifth Third’s regulatory capital adjustments
and deductions were primarily impacted by the transition provision
related to the deduction of intangible assets other than goodwill and
mortgage servicing assets. Also, Fifth Third will make a one-time
permanent election to not include AOCI in common equity Tier 1 capital
in the March 31, 2015 regulatory filings.
Book value per share at March 31, 2015 was $17.85 and tangible book
value per share* was $14.87, compared with the December 31, 2014 book
value per share of $17.35 and tangible book value per share of $14.40.
As previously announced, Fifth Third entered into a share repurchase
agreement with a counterparty on January 22, 2015, whereby Fifth Third
would purchase approximately $180 million of its outstanding common
stock. This transaction reduced Fifth Third’s first quarter share count
by 8.54 million shares on January 27, 2015. Settlement of the forward
contract related to this agreement is expected to occur on or before
April 23, 2015. In addition, the settlement of the forward contract
related to the October 20, 2014 $180 million share repurchase agreement
occurred on January 5, 2015. An additional 0.79 million shares were
repurchased upon completion of the agreement. In total, the incremental
impact to the average diluted share count in the first quarter of 2015
was approximately 8.97 million shares due to share repurchase
transactions in the first quarter of 2015 and the fourth quarter of 2014.
On March 11, 2015, Fifth Third announced that the FRB did not object to
Fifth Third’s 2015 CCAR capital plan, which included the potential
increase in the quarterly common stock dividend to $0.14 per share in
2016 and the potential repurchase of common shares during the CCAR
period in an amount up to $765 million. In addition, the capital plan
incorporated Fifth Third’s potential repurchases of common shares in the
amount of any after-tax gains from the sale of Vantiv, Inc. (“Vantiv”)
stock. These capital plans were intended to maintain common equity
capital levels in the current range during the CCAR period. Any such
actions would be based on environmental and market conditions, earnings
results, our capital position, and other factors, as well as approval by
the Fifth Third Board of Directors, at the time.

99.1 of 8-k filing dated 4/21/15.
Tax Rate
The effective tax rate was 25.9 percent this quarter compared with 25.9
percent in the fourth quarter of 2014 and 27.3 percent in the first
quarter of 2014.
Other
Fifth Third Bank owns 43 million units representing a 22.8 percent
interest in Vantiv Holding, LLC, convertible into shares of Vantiv,
Inc., a publicly traded firm (NYSE: VNTV). Based upon Vantiv’s closing
price of $37.70 on March 31, 2015, our interest in Vantiv was valued at
approximately $1.6 billion. Next month in our 10-Q, we will update our
disclosure of the carrying value of our interest in Vantiv stock, which
was $394 million as of December 31, 2014. The difference between the
market value and the book value of Fifth Third’s interest in Vantiv’s
shares is not recognized in Fifth Third’s equity or capital.
Additionally, Fifth Third has a warrant to purchase additional shares in
Vantiv which is carried as a derivative asset at a fair value of $485
million as of March 31, 2015.

include, but are not limited to: (1) general economic conditions and

nationally or in the states in which Fifth Third, one or more acquired
entities and/or the combined company do business, are less favorable
than expected; (2) deteriorating credit quality; (3) political
developments, wars or other hostilities may disrupt or increase
volatility in securities markets or other economic conditions;
(4) changes in the interest rate environment reduce interest margins;
(5) prepayment speeds, loan origination and sale volumes, charge-offs
and loan loss provisions; (6) Fifth Third’s ability to maintain required
capital levels and adequate sources of funding and liquidity;
(7) maintaining capital requirements and adequate sources of funding and
liquidity may limit Fifth Third’s operations and potential growth;
(8) changes and trends in capital markets; (9) problems encountered by
larger or similar financial institutions may adversely affect the
banking industry and/or Fifth Third; (10) competitive pressures among
depository institutions increase significantly; (11) effects of critical

Board (FASB) or other regulatory agencies; (13) legislative or
regulatory changes or actions, or significant litigation, adversely
affect Fifth Third, one or more acquired entities and/or the combined
company or the businesses in which Fifth Third, one or more acquired
entities and/or the combined company are engaged, including the
Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act; (14) ability
to maintain favorable ratings from rating agencies; (15) fluctuation of
Fifth Third’s stock price; (16) ability to attract and retain key
personnel; (17) ability to receive dividends from its subsidiaries;
(18) potentially dilutive effect of future acquisitions on current
shareholders’ ownership of Fifth Third; (19) effects of accounting or
financial results of one or more acquired entities; (20) difficulties
from Fifth Third’s investment in, relationship with, and nature of the
operations of Vantiv, LLC; (21) loss of income from any sale or
potential sale of businesses that could have an adverse effect on Fifth
Third’s earnings and future growth; (22) ability to secure confidential
information and deliver products and services through the use of
computer systems and telecommunications networks; and (23) the impact of
reputational risk created by these developments on such matters as
business generation and retention, funding and liquidity.
You should refer to our periodic and current reports filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission, or “SEC,” for further information on
other factors, which could cause actual results to be significantly
different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking
