FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

NORTHERN TRUST CORPORATION REPORTS FIRST QUARTER
NET INCOME OF $360.6 MILLION, EARNINGS PER DILUTED COMMON SHARE OF $1.55

Providing Support to Our Clients, Staff, and Communities
Strong Balance Sheet and Capital Strength to Meet Client and Community Needs
CHICAGO, APRIL 21, 2020 — Northern Trust Corporation today reported first quarter net income per diluted common share of $1.55, compared to $1.48 in the first quarter of 2019 and $1.70 in the fourth quarter of 2019. Net income was $360.6 million, compared to $347.1 million in the prior-year quarter and $371.1 million in the prior quarter.
“The ongoing pandemic has brought health and economic challenges on an unprecedented global scale,” said Michael O’Grady, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Our focus during this time has been on the safety of our staff, serving our clients, and supporting our communities. We have maintained mission critical services to our clients even as we transitioned the vast majority of our staff to a remote work environment. We have also continued our long-standing focus on supporting our communities, including facilitating loans through the Small Business Administration Paycheck Protection Program and providing philanthropic support to several nonprofit organizations around the world, beginning with those focused on immediate healthcare, food, and other humanitarian relief efforts.”
O’Grady added, “Our performance this quarter generated revenue growth of 7%, earnings per share growth of 5%, and a return on average common equity of 13.4%. Our results for the quarter reflected the momentum we carried coming into the year, with the quarter’s performance only partially impacted by the pandemic. Turbulent times such as these show the importance of a strong capital base and liquidity profile to continue to support the activities of our clients. We are grateful for the dedication, professionalism and commitment our employees around the world have displayed in coming together to serve our clients and communities.”

Q1 2020 vs. Q4 2019

Foreign exchange trading income increased primarily due to higher client volumes and increased market volatility.
Security commissions and trading income increased primarily due to higher revenue from interest rate swaps and core brokerage.
Other operating income increased primarily due to prior quarter charges related to the decision to sell substantially all of the lease portfolio, lower expenses for existing swap agreements related to Visa Inc. Class B common shares, and higher income related to a bank-owned life insurance program. This was partially offset by lower miscellaneous income and a market value adjustment for a seed capital investment. The lower miscellaneous income was primarily associated with a market value decline in the supplemental compensation plans, which also resulted in a related decrease in staff-related expenses in other operating expense.

Q1 2020 vs. Q1 2019

Foreign exchange trading income increased primarily due to higher client volumes and increased market volatility, partially offset by decreased foreign exchange swap activity in Treasury.
Security commissions and trading income increased primarily due to higher revenue from interest rate swaps and core brokerage.
Other operating income increased primarily due to higher income related to a bank-owned life insurance program implemented during the second quarter of 2019, lower expenses for existing swap agreements related to Visa Inc. Class B common shares, and non-trading related foreign exchange income, partially offset by a market value adjustment for a seed capital investment and lower miscellaneous income. The lower miscellaneous income was primarily associated with a market value decline in the supplemental compensation plans, which also resulted in a related decrease in staff-related expenses in other operating expense.

Q1 2020
The Corporation adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (ASU 2016-13) on January 1, 2020, which significantly changes the way impairment of financial instruments is recognized by requiring immediate recognition of estimated credit losses expected to occur over the remaining life of financial instruments. Upon adoption of ASU 2016-13, Northern Trust recorded a $13.7 million increase in the allowance for credit losses with a corresponding cumulative effect adjustment to decrease retained earnings $10.1 million, net of income taxes.
The provision in the current quarter was primarily due to an increase in the reserve evaluated on a collective basis driven by current and projected economic conditions resulting from the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and related market and economic impacts, with the largest increase in the commercial and institutional and commercial real estate portfolios.
Q4 2019
The credit provision in the prior quarter was primarily driven by an overall decrease in the inherent allowance related to changes in credit quality, partially offset by net charge-offs.
Q1 2019
The provision in the prior-year quarter was primarily driven by an increase in the specific reserve related to outstanding loans and standby letters of credit in the commercial and institutional portfolio, offset by a net recovery in the period.

Q1 2020 vs. Q4 2019

Compensation expense increased primarily driven by higher long term performance-based incentive compensation due to the vesting provisions associated with incentive grants to retirement-eligible employees in the current quarter and a one-time supplemental payment to certain employees in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, partially offset by lower cash-based incentive accruals.
Employee benefits increased primarily reflecting higher payroll taxes and retirement plan expenses, partially offset by lower medical costs.
Outside services expense decreased primarily due to lower consulting and legal services.
Equipment and software expense decreased slightly primarily reflecting lower software disposition charges, partially offset by higher depreciation and amortization.
Occupancy expense decreased primarily due to the renegotiation of a lease resulting in the reduction of a related asset retirement obligation.
Other operating expense decreased primarily driven by lower staff-related expenses and business promotion expenses due to seasonality and reduced business travel, partially offset by increased contributions to Northern Trust’s charitable foundation. The lower staff-related expense was primarily related to a market value decline in the supplemental compensation plans and resulted in a related decline in miscellaneous income reported in noninterest income.
Q1 2020 vs. Q1 2019

Compensation expense increased primarily reflecting higher salary expense, driven by staff growth and base pay adjustments, and a one-time supplemental payment to certain employees in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, partially offset by prior-year-quarter severance-related charges.
Employee benefits increased primarily due to higher retirement plan expenses and payroll taxes.
Outside services expense increased primarily reflecting increased third-party advisory fees and technical services costs.
Equipment and software expense increased primarily reflecting higher depreciation and amortization and software support costs.
Other operating expense decreased primarily due to lower staff-related expenses, partially offset by increased contributions to Northern Trust’s charitable foundation.

Q1 2020 vs. Q4 2019
The provision for income taxes decreased primarily due to lower U.S. taxes payable on the income of the Corporation’s non-U.S. branches and a change in the earnings mix in tax jurisdictions in which the Corporation operates, partially offset by research and development tax credits recorded in the prior quarter.
Q1 2020 vs. Q1 2019
The provision for income taxes decreased primarily due to a change in the earnings mix in tax jurisdictions in which the Corporation operates, an increase in the proportion of earnings derived from tax-exempt income, and additional benefits related to share-based compensation arrangements, partially offset by prior-year-quarter income tax benefits recorded as a result of the Corporation’s international organizational restructuring.

STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Average total stockholders’ equity increased $358.2 million, or 3%, to $10.8 billion from the prior-year quarter’s average of $10.4 billion. The increase was primarily attributable to earnings and accumulated other comprehensive income since the prior-year period, partially offset by the repurchase of common stock pursuant to the Corporation’s share repurchase program and dividend declarations.
During the current quarter, the Corporation used the proceeds from the issuance of the Series E Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred stock to fund the redemption of all outstanding shares of the Corporation’s Series C Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock at redemption price of $400.0 million, which was $11.5 million in excess of the net carrying value of the shares. The $11.5 million excess is included in preferred stock dividends in the determination of net income available to common shareholders.
During the current quarter, the Corporation declared cash dividends totaling $19.0 million to preferred stockholders and cash dividends totaling $148.6 million to common stockholders. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Corporation repurchased 3,240,738 shares of common stock prior to suspending its share repurchase program on March 16, 2020, including 496,862 shares withheld related to share-based compensation, at a total cost of $296.8 million ($91.59 average price per share).

CAPITAL RATIOS


The capital ratios of Northern Trust Corporation and its principal subsidiary, The Northern Trust Company, remained strong at March 31, 2020, exceeding the minimum requirements for classification as “well-capitalized” under applicable U.S. regulatory requirements.
During the current quarter, Northern Trust Corporation contributed $500 million of capital to its wholly-owned subsidiary, The Northern Trust Company. Other drivers contributing to the change in capital ratios from the prior period include the redemption of all outstanding shares of the Corporation’s Series C Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock and the increase in total assets and risk-weighted assets. The table below provides capital ratios, as well as the required minimum capital ratios, for Northern Trust Corporation and The Northern Trust Company determined by Basel III phased-in requirements.

RECONCILIATION TO FULLY TAXABLE EQUIVALENT



The following table presents a reconciliation of interest income, net interest income, net interest margin, and total revenue prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles to such measures on an FTE basis, which are non-generally accepted accounting financial measures. Net interest margin is calculated by dividing annualized net interest income by average interest-earning assets. Management believes this presentation provides a clearer indication of these financial measures for comparative purposes. When adjusted to an FTE basis, yields on taxable, nontaxable and partially taxable assets are comparable; however, the adjustment to an FTE basis has no impact on net income.
