(b) 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.

(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.

“Core fourth quarter results were in line with our expectations,” said
Greg D. Carmichael, President and CEO of Fifth Third Bancorp. “Our fee
businesses produced stable results despite lower levels of capital
markets activity, and our expenses were up less than one percent
relative to the third quarter, excluding the contribution we made to our
Foundation in support of our communities. We were also pleased with the
low charge-off levels at 34 basis points. We view the Fed’s December
rate move as a positive first step towards a normalized environment but
there is uncertainty around the extent and timing of the future rate
decisions.
“Additionally during the quarter, we have taken important steps towards
reducing our direct ownership stake in Vantiv in the best interest of
our shareholders while reducing a significant amount of volatility
associated with our warrant position. Vantiv continues to perform well
and we were happy to participate in their success. In this quarter we
executed on all three pieces of our financial interests, namely the TRA,
warrants, and direct ownership in a well-planned manner to maximize the
returns to our shareholders. After these transactions, we continue to
hold a significant ownership stake in the company which we believe will
result in healthy returns for our shareholders.
“We view 2016 as an important transition year tactically and
strategically to position our company to achieve operating leverage in a
sustainable manner regardless of the rate environment going forward. In
2015 we took significant steps in that direction and we will continue
our efforts in 2016. We are working simultaneously on long-term revenue
growth as well as expense efficiencies to achieve our goal. We have
taken actions to reduce our run-rate expenses and those savings will
partially fund the strategic investments and expenses related to our
risk and compliance infrastructure which we expect will peak in 2016.
Our strategic decisions will continue to result in the re-allocation of
our resources to improve profitability with reduced volatility. We are
committed to achieving the industry leading level of operational results
that our constituents have historically seen from us when it comes to
service, efficiency, growth, and returns.”

Net interest income decreased $2 million to $904 million on a fully
taxable equivalent basis from the third quarter, primarily driven by the
full quarter impact of $2.4 billion of wholesale debt issuances in the
third quarter, the $750 million auto securitization completed in
November, and commercial loan yield compression, partially offset by
residential mortgage loan growth.
The net interest margin was 2.85 percent, a decrease of 4 bps from the
previous quarter, primarily driven by the impact of debt issuances and
the auto securitization above, slower prepayments reducing net discount
accretion on the investment portfolio, and an increased short-term cash
position during the quarter.
Compared with the fourth quarter of 2014, net interest income increased
$16 million and the net interest margin decreased 11 bps. The increase
in net interest income was driven by the impact of higher investment
securities balances, partially offset by a $22 million decline due to
the changes to the Bancorp’s deposit advance product that were effective
January 1, 2015. The decline in the net interest margin from the prior
year was primarily driven by a 7 basis point impact due to the changes
to the deposit advance product and loan repricing.
Securities
Average securities and other short-term investments were $31.3 billion
in the fourth quarter of 2015 compared with $30.1 billion in the
previous quarter and $27.6 billion in the fourth quarter of 2014. Other
short-term investments average balances of $2.3 billion increased $454
million sequentially reflecting higher cash balances held at the Federal
Reserve.

Average loan and lease balances (excluding loans held-for-sale)
increased $221 million sequentially and increased $2.6 billion, or 3
percent, from the fourth quarter of 2014. The year-over-year increase in
average loans and leases was driven by increased commercial and
industrial (C&I) and commercial construction balances. Period end loans
and leases (excluding loans held-for-sale) of $92.6 billion decreased
$992 million, or 1 percent, sequentially and increased $2.5 billion, or
3 percent, from a year ago.
Average commercial portfolio loan and lease balances increased $183
million sequentially and increased $2.9 billion, or 5 percent, from the
fourth quarter of 2014. Average C&I loans were flat from the prior
quarter and increased $1.9 billion, or 5 percent, from the fourth
quarter of 2014. Within commercial real estate, average commercial
mortgage balances were flat and average commercial construction balances
increased $176 million. Commercial line usage, on an end of period
basis, decreased 77 bps from the third quarter of 2015 and 49 bps from
the fourth quarter of 2014.
Average consumer portfolio loan and lease balances increased $38 million
sequentially and decreased $347 million from the fourth quarter of 2014.
Average residential mortgage loans increased 3 percent sequentially and
4 percent from a year ago. Average auto loans decreased 2 sequentially
and 3 percent from the previous year. Average home equity loans declined
1 percent sequentially and 6 percent from the fourth quarter of 2014.
Average credit card loans decreased 3 percent sequentially and 5 percent
from the fourth quarter of 2014.
Period end loans held-for-sale balances of $903 million decreased $91
million sequentially. Period end loans held-for-sale balances decreased
$358 million compared with the prior year due to the impact of the
transfer of certain residential mortgage loans classified as troubled
debt restructurings to held-for-sale in the fourth quarter of 2014.

Average core deposits increased $1.0 billion, or 1 percent, sequentially
and increased $3.4 billion, or 4 percent, from the fourth quarter of
2014. Average transaction deposits increased $1.0 billion, or 1 percent,
from the third quarter of 2015 and increased $3.3 billion, or 4 percent
from the fourth quarter of 2014. Sequential performance was primarily
driven by higher demand deposit and money market account balances,
partially offset by lower interest checking and savings account
balances. Year-over-year growth reflected higher demand and money market
account balances, partially offset by lower savings, foreign office, and
interest checking account balances. Other time deposits were flat
sequentially and increased 3 percent compared with the fourth quarter of
2014.
Average commercial transaction deposits increased 2 percent sequentially
and increased 5 percent from the previous year. Sequential performance
was primarily driven by seasonally higher demand deposit and money
market account balances, partially offset by lower interest checking
account balances. Year-over-year growth reflected higher demand deposit
and money market account balances, partially offset by lower foreign
office and interest checking account balances.
Average consumer transaction deposits were flat sequentially and
increased 2 percent from the fourth quarter of 2014. The sequential
performance reflected higher interest checking account balances,
partially offset by lower savings account balances. Year-over-year
growth was driven by increased money market account, interest checking,
and demand deposit account balances, partially offset by lower savings
account balances.

Average wholesale funding of $21.9 billion increased $223 million, or 1
percent, sequentially, and increased $2.4 billion, or 13 percent,
compared with the fourth quarter of 2014. The sequential increase was
primarily driven by the full quarter’s impact of the issuance of $1.1
billion of 5-year holding company debt and $1.3 billion of 3-year
bank-level debt in the third quarter of 2015, a $750 million auto
securitization completed in November, and an increase in certificates
$100,000 and over. The year-over-year increase in average wholesale
funding reflected an increase in federal funds purchased, an increase in
long-term debt due to issuances in 2015, as well as an increase in
certificates $100,000 and over.

Excluding the items in the table above, noninterest income of $623
million increased $32 million, or 5 percent, from the previous quarter
and increased $11 million, or 2 percent, from the fourth quarter of
2014. The sequential growth was primarily due to an annual payment from
Vantiv pursuant to the tax receivable agreement of $31 million
recognized in the fourth quarter of 2015. Year-over-year growth was
driven by growth in mortgage banking revenue and the annual payment from
Vantiv pursuant to the tax receivable agreement recognized in both
quarters, partially offset by a decrease in corporate banking revenue.
Service charges on deposits of $144 million decreased 1 percent from the
third quarter of 2015 and increased 1 percent compared with the same
quarter last year. The sequential decrease was due to a 3 percent
decrease in retail service charges. The increase from the fourth quarter
of 2014 was due to a 3 percent increase in commercial service charges.
Corporate banking revenue of $104 million was flat compared to the third
quarter of 2015 and decreased $16 million from the fourth quarter of
2014. The sequential comparison reflects higher lease remarketing fees,
partially offset by a decrease in institutional sales revenue. The
year-over-year decrease was driven by lower loan syndications revenue,
foreign exchange fees, and business lending fees, partially offset by
higher lease remarketing and institutional sales revenue.
Mortgage banking net revenue was $74 million in the fourth quarter of
2015, up $3 million from the third quarter of 2015 and up $13 million
from the fourth quarter of 2014. Fourth quarter 2015 originations were
$1.8 billion, compared with $2.3 billion in the previous quarter and
$1.7 billion in the fourth quarter of 2014. Fourth quarter 2015
originations resulted in gains of $37 million on mortgages sold,
compared with gains of $46 million during the previous quarter and $36
million during the fourth quarter of 2014. Mortgage servicing fees were
$53 million this quarter, $54 million in the third quarter of 2015, and
$60 million in the fourth 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 $16 million in the
fourth quarter of 2015 (reflecting MSR amortization of $29 million and
MSR valuation adjustments of positive $13 million); negative $29 million
in the third quarter of 2015 (MSR amortization of $37 million and MSR
valuation adjustments of positive $8 million); and negative $34 million
in the fourth quarter of 2014 (MSR amortization of $32 million and MSR
valuation adjustments of negative $2 million). The mortgage servicing
asset, net of the valuation reserve, was $785 million at quarter end on
a servicing portfolio of $59 billion.
Investment advisory revenue of $102 million decreased 1 percent from the
third quarter of 2015 and increased 2 percent year-over-year. The
increase from the prior year was primarily driven by an increase in
private client services revenue.
Card and processing revenue of $77 million in the fourth quarter of 2015
was flat sequentially and increased 1 percent from the fourth quarter of
2014.
Other noninterest income totaled $602 million in the fourth quarter of
2015, compared with $213 million in the previous quarter and $150
million in the fourth quarter of 2014. As previously described, the
results included the adjustments in the table above with the exception
of securities gains in all comparable periods. Excluding these items,
other noninterest income of $122 million increased approximately $31
million, or 34 percent, from the third quarter of 2015 and increased
approximately $9 million, or 8 percent, from the fourth quarter of 2014.
The sequential and year-over-year increases were primarily due to
payments from Vantiv pursuant to the tax receivable agreement of $31
million recognized in the fourth quarter of 2015 and $23 million
recognized in the fourth quarter of 2014.
Net gains on investment securities were $1 million in the fourth quarter
of 2015, compared with an immaterial gain in the previous quarter and $4
million in the fourth quarter of 2014.

Noninterest expense of $963 million increased 2 percent compared with
the third quarter of 2015 and increased 5 percent compared with the
fourth quarter of 2014. The sequential increase was primarily due to a
$10 million contribution to the Fifth Third Foundation and higher net
occupancy expense. The year-over-year increase reflected a $10 million
contribution to Fifth Third Foundation, higher compensation expense, net
occupancy expense, and technology and communications expense, partially
offset by lower employee benefits expense.

Bancorp has historically excluded government guaranteed loans
classified in OREO from its nonperforming asset disclosures. Upon
the prospective adoption on January 1, 2015 of ASU 2014-14

Foreclosure,” government guaranteed loans meeting certain criteria
were reclassified to other receivables rather than OREO upon
foreclosure.

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 were strong during the quarter. The common equity Tier 1
ratio was 9.83 percent, the tangible common equity to tangible assets
ratio* was 8.59 percent (excluding unrealized gains/losses), and 8.71
percent (including unrealized gains/losses). The Tier 1 risk-based
capital ratio was 10.93 percent, the total risk-based capital ratio was
14.13 percent, and the Leverage ratio was 9.54 percent.
Book value per share at December 31, 2015 was $18.48 and tangible book
value per share* was $15.39, compared with the September 30, 2015 book
value per share of $18.22 and tangible book value per share* of $15.18.
Fifth Third entered into or completed multiple share repurchases during
the quarter. Below is a summary of those share repurchases.
-
On October 23, 2015, Fifth Third settled the forward contract related
to the September 9, 2015 $150 million share repurchase agreement. An
additional 1.45 million shares were repurchased in connection with the
completion of this agreement.
-
On December 14, 2015, Fifth Third entered into a share repurchase
agreement whereby Fifth Third would purchase approximately $215
million of its outstanding stock, which reduced the fourth quarter
share count by 9.25 million shares.
-
On January 14, 2016, Fifth Third settled the forward contract related
to the December 14, 2015 $215 million share repurchase agreement. An
additional 1.78 million shares were repurchased in connection with the
completion of this agreement.
In total, common shares outstanding decreased by approximately 10
million shares in the fourth quarter of 2015 from the third quarter of
2015.
* Non-GAAP measure; see Reg. G reconciliation on page 34 in Exhibit
99.1 of 8-k filing dated 1/21/16.
Tax Rate
The effective tax rate was 30.7 percent in the fourth quarter of 2015
compared with 26.0 percent in the third quarter of 2015 and 25.9 percent
in the fourth quarter of 2014. The sequential and year-over-year
increase was primarily driven by the impact of Vantiv-related
transactions during the quarter.
Other
On October 23, 2015, Fifth Third Bancorp entered into an agreement with
Vantiv, Inc. (NYSE: VNTV) under which a portion of its Tax Receivable
Agreement (“TRA”) with Vantiv was terminated and settled in full for
consideration of a cash payment in the amount of $48.9 million from
Vantiv. Under the agreement, Fifth Third Bancorp sold certain TRA cash
flows it expected to receive from 2017 to 2030, totaling an estimated
$140 million. This sale did not impact the TRA payment recognized in the
fourth quarter of 2015 and does not impact the TRA payment expected to
be recognized in the fourth quarter of 2016. For more detail see the 8-K
dated October 28, 2015.
On December 2, 2015, Vantiv, Inc. conducted a secondary offering of 13.4
million shares of its Class A Common Stock on behalf of Fifth Third. The
offering was the culmination of a three-step process that included 1)
the partial cancellation of the warrant held by Fifth Third to purchase
additional ownership in Vantiv Holding, LLC for a $200 million cash
payment; 2) the net exercise of a portion of the remaining warrant for
5.4 million Class C units; and 3) the exchange of these 5.4 million
Class C units and 8 million Class B units for the 13.4 million shares of
Vantiv, Inc. Class A Common Stock included in the secondary offering.
During the fourth quarter, Fifth Third recognized a pre-tax gain of $420
million related to the ownership interests included in these
transactions. For more detail see the press release dated December 3,
2015.
Fifth Third Bank owns approximately 35 million units representing an
18.3 percent interest in Vantiv Holding, LLC, convertible into shares of
Vantiv, Inc., a publicly traded firm. Based upon Vantiv’s closing price
of $47.42 on December 31, 2015, our interest in Vantiv was valued at
approximately $1.7 billion. Next month in our 10-K, we will update our
disclosure of the carrying value of our interest in Vantiv stock, which
was $422 million as of September 30, 2015. 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 remaining warrant to purchase
approximately 7.8 million additional shares in Vantiv which is carried
as a derivative asset at a fair value of $262 million as of December 31,
2015.
