NEW YORK--()--Citigroup Inc. today reported net income for the fourth quarter 2012 of $1.2 billion, or $0.38 per diluted share, on revenues of $18.2 billion. This compared to net income of $956 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, on revenues of $17.2 billion for the fourth quarter 2011.

CVA/DVA was a negative $485 million in the fourth quarter, mainly resulting from the improvement in Citigroup’s credit spreads, compared to negative $40 million in the prior year period. Fourth quarter 2012 results also included the previously announced $1.0 billion of repositioning charges ($653 million after-tax), compared to $428 million of repositioning charges ($275 million after-tax) in the prior year period. Excluding CVA/DVA, fourth quarter revenues were $18.7 billion, up 8% from the prior year period. Excluding CVA/DVA and repositioning charges, earnings were $0.69 per diluted share, up 68% from the prior year period, as higher revenues, lower core operating expenses and lower net credit losses were partially offset by higher legal and related expenses and a lower net loan loss reserve release.

Michael Corbat, Citigroup’s Chief Executive Officer, said, “Our bottom line earnings reflect an environment that remains challenging- with businesses working through issues like spread compression and regulatory changes- as well as the costs of putting legacy issues behind us. However, we did make progress on several fronts. At 8.7%, we reached the target for our year-end Basel III Tier 1 Common ratio. We continue to have a very liquid balance sheet and a high-quality credit portfolio in our core businesses. It will take some time to work through the challenges of the current environment but realizing our core earnings potential, as well as improving our returns on assets and tangible equity, are critical goals going forward.”

Citigroup full year 2012 net income was $7.5 billion on revenues of $70.2 billion, compared to net income of $11.1 billion on revenues of $78.4 billion for the full year 2011. Full year 2012 results included negative $2.3 billion in CVA/DVA, compared to positive $1.8 billion in the prior year. Citigroup’s full year 2012 results also included a loss of $4.6 billion ($2.9 billion after-tax) related to the sale of minority investments4, versus a gain of $199 million ($128 million after-tax) in the prior year. In addition to the fourth quarter 2012 repositioning charges of $1.0 billion, Citigroup recorded a $582 million tax benefit5 related to the resolution of certain tax audit items in the third quarter 2012. Excluding CVA/DVA and the impact of minority investments, Citigroup revenues were $77.1 billion in 2012, up slightly compared to $76.3 billion in the prior year. Excluding these items as well as the repositioning charges in the fourth quarters of 2012 and 2011 and the tax item in the third quarter of 2012, net income was $11.9 billion in 2012, up 18% compared to 2011, as higher revenues, lower core operating expenses and lower net credit losses were partially offset by higher legal and related expenses and a lower net loan loss reserve release in 2012 compared to 2011.

Citigroup revenues of $18.7 billion in the fourth quarter 2012, excluding CVA/DVA, increased 8% from the prior year period, driven by 9% growth in Citicorp revenues and a 2% decline in Citi Holdings revenues primarily resulting from the ongoing wind down of Citi Holdings assets.

Citicorp revenues(6) of $17.1 billion in the fourth quarter 2012 included $(510) million of CVA/DVA reported within Securities and Banking. Excluding CVA/DVA, Citicorp revenues were $17.6 billion, an increase of 9% from the prior year period with growth reported in each of the three operating businesses within Citicorp. Securities and Banking revenues grew 47% (excluding CVA/DVA), Global Consumer Banking (GCB) revenues grew 4% and Transaction Services revenues grew 1% from the prior year period.

Citi Holdings revenues of $1.1 billion in the fourth quarter 2012 included positive $25 million of CVA/DVA. Excluding CVA/DVA, Citi Holdings revenues were $1.0 billion, down 2% versus the prior year period. Local Consumer Lending drove the decline in Citi Holdings revenues from the prior year period, due to the ongoing reduction in assets. Most of the decline in Local Consumer Lending revenues was offset by higher revenues in the Special Asset Pool reflecting an improvement in asset marks. Total Citi Holdings assets of $156 billion declined $69 billion, or 31%, from the fourth quarter 2011. Citi Holdings assets at the end of the fourth quarter 2012 represented approximately 8% of total Citigroup assets.

Citigroup’s net income rose to $1.2 billion in the fourth quarter 2012 from $956 million in the prior year period. Excluding the impact of CVA/DVA and repositioning charges, Citigroup net income was $2.2 billion, 72% higher than the fourth quarter 2011. Operating expenses of $13.8 billion were 5% higher than the prior year period reflecting the higher repositioning charges and higher legal and related costs, including the previously announced $305 million charge in the fourth quarter 2012 related to the agreement in principle reached with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) and the Federal Reserve Board regarding the independent foreclosure review process. Citigroup’s cost of credit in the fourth quarter 2012 was $3.2 billion, an increase of 11% over the prior year period, reflecting a $1.4 billion decrease in net loan loss reserve releases offset by a $1.0 billion improvement in net credit losses. Citigroup’s provision for income taxes was a benefit of $206 million in the fourth quarter 2012, compared to an expense of $91 million in the prior year period.

Citigroup’s allowance for loan losses was $25.5 billion at year end, or 3.9% of total loans, compared to $30.1 billion, or 4.7% of total loans, in the prior year period. The $86 million net release of loan loss reserves in the quarter compared to a $1.5 billion release in the prior year period. Reserve releases in Citicorp of $137 million compared to $805 million in the fourth quarter 2011, predominantly reflecting lower releases in North America GCB, largely related to Citi-branded cards. Citi Holdings recorded a net loan loss reserve build of $51 million in the fourth quarter 2012, compared to a net reserve release of $663 million in the prior year period, as a significantly lower net reserve release of $49 million was more than offset by losses on loan sales of $100 million. Citigroup asset quality remained largely stable to improving in the fourth quarter 2012. Corporate non-accrual loans decreased 28% to $2.3 billion from the fourth quarter 2011, while consumer non-accrual loans grew 17% to $9.2 billion from the fourth quarter 2011, predominantly reflecting the third quarter 2012 OCC guidance regarding the treatment of mortgage loans where the borrower has gone through Chapter 7 bankruptcy which added $1.5 billion to consumer non-accrual loans. Consumer loans that were 90+ days delinquent, excluding the Special Asset Pool, decreased 17% versus the prior year period to $7.7 billion, or 1.9% of consumer loans.

Citigroup’s capital levels and book value per share increased during 2012. As of quarter end, book value per share was $61.57 and tangible book value per share7 was $51.19, 1% and 3% increases respectively versus the prior year period. Citigroup’s book value and tangible book value per share each declined 3% in the fourth quarter 2012 as compared to the third quarter 2012 due to the dilutive impact of the issuance of approximately 96 million shares of common stock during the quarter upon the automatic settlement of the T-DECS issued in December 2009, as previously announced. At quarter end, Citigroup’s Tier 1 Capital Ratio was 14.1%, its Basel I Tier 1 Common Ratio was 12.7%, and its Basel III Tier 1 Common Ratio was estimated at 8.7%.

Citicorp

Citicorp revenues of $17.1 billion in the fourth quarter 2012 increased by 6% from the prior year period. CVA/DVA, reported within Securities and Banking, was $(510) million in the fourth quarter 2012, compared to $(74) million in the prior year period. Excluding CVA/DVA, revenues were $17.6 billion, up 9% from the fourth quarter 2011 driven by 47% growth in Securities and Banking revenues to $4.8 billion, 4% growth in GCB revenues to $10.2 billion and 1% growth in Transaction Services revenues to $2.6 billion. Corporate/Other revenues declined $459 million from the prior year period to $(76) million, mainly driven by the absence of hedging gains in the prior year period and lower investment yields.

Citicorp net income decreased slightly from the prior year period to $2.3 billion, as revenue growth and lower net credit losses were offset by CVA/DVA, the higher repositioning costs and lower net loan loss reserve releases. Excluding CVA/DVA and the repositioning charges, Citicorp net income of $3.2 billion was up 24% versus the prior year period.

Citicorp operating expenses increased 8% from the prior year period to $12.2 billion, largely reflecting the repositioning charges ($951 million in the fourth quarter 2012 versus $368 million in the prior year period) and higher legal and related expenses.

Citicorp cost of credit of $2.0 billion in the fourth quarter 2012 increased 10% from the prior year period. The increase reflected lower loan loss reserve releases, which declined $668 million, partially offset by lower net credit losses, which declined 19% to $2.1 billion compared to the prior year period. The decline in reserve releases was largely in North America GCB and primarily related to Citi-branded cards. Citicorp’s consumer loans 90+ days delinquent declined 10% from the prior year period to $3.1 billion, and the 90+ days delinquency ratio decreased 14 basis points to 1.05% of loans.

Citicorp end of period loans grew 7% versus the prior year period to $540 billion, reflecting strong growth in corporate loans and Latin America consumer loans. Consumer loans grew 3% to $295 billion and corporate loans grew 11% to $244 billion, both versus the prior year period.

Global Consumer Banking

GCB revenues of $10.2 billion grew 4% from the prior year period, reflecting volume growth across most businesses, partially offset by ongoing spread compression. Revenues also benefited from higher U.S. mortgage revenues. Revenues in international GCB grew 4% to $4.9 billion on a constant dollar basis (excluding the impact of foreign exchange translation into U.S. dollars; the impact of FX on international GCB results was not material in the fourth quarter 2012)8 and grew 3% in North America GCB to $5.3 billion.

GCB net income rose 2% versus the prior year period (1% on a constant dollar basis) to $1.8 billion, reflecting growth in revenues and lower net credit losses, partially offset by lower loan loss reserve releases and higher operating expenses. Expenses of $5.9 billion rose 6% versus the prior year period driven by the higher repositioning charges ($366 million in the fourth quarter 2012 versus $65 million in the prior year period), as well as volume-related costs.

North America GCB revenues grew 3% to $5.3 billion driven by higher retail banking revenues that were partially offset by lower revenues from the cards businesses (Citi-branded cards and Citi retail services). Retail banking revenues grew 20% to $1.7 billion from the fourth quarter 2011, primarily reflecting higher mortgage revenues due to increased retail originations and wider margins. Citi-branded cards revenues declined 1% to $2.1 billion, and Citi retail services revenues declined 4% to $1.5 billion reflecting lower average loan balances as Citi-branded cards loans declined 4% and Citi retail services loans declined 3% versus the prior year period. The decline in Citi retail services revenues also reflected improving credit trends and the related impact on contractual partner payments.

North America GCB net income was $1.0 billion, 6% higher than the fourth quarter 2011. The growth in net income was largely driven by higher revenues and a $474 million decrease in net credit losses that were partially offset by a $569 million reduction in loan loss reserve releases versus the prior year period. Operating expenses in the fourth quarter were flat versus the prior year period at $2.7 billion as efficiency savings broadly offset higher repositioning charges ($100 in the fourth quarter 2012 versus $18 in the prior year period).

North America GCB credit quality continued to improve as net credit losses decreased $474 million, or 27%, to $1.3 billion compared to the prior year period. Net credit losses improved in Citi-branded cards (down 29% to $700 million), Citi retail services (down 25% to $514 million) and in retail banking (down 27% to $51 million) versus the prior year period. Delinquency rates improved in Citi-branded cards and Citi retail services versus the prior year period and ended 2012 at historically low levels. The reserve release in the fourth quarter 2012 was $215 million, $569 million lower than in the fourth quarter 2011.

International GCB revenues grew 4% to $4.9 billion on a constant dollar basis versus the fourth quarter 2011, with 7% growth in Latin America to $2.5 billion, an 11% increase in EMEA to $391 million and a 2% decline in Asia to $2.0 billion, which reflected the continued low interest rate environment and regulatory changes in the region.

International GCB net income decreased 2% from the prior year period to $760 million, and declined by 4% on a constant dollar basis. Operating expenses in the fourth quarter 2012 increased 11% to $3.2 billion predominantly reflecting the increase in repositioning charges ($266 million in fourth quarter 2012 versus $47 million in the prior year period), as well as volume-related costs.

International GCB credit quality remained fairly stable even as loan portfolios continued to grow. Net credit losses rose 10% to $755 million, primarily reflecting portfolio growth as well as certain specific commercial loan charge-offs in Latin America. Net credit losses increased 6 basis points versus the prior year period to 2.15% of average loans.

Securities and Banking

Securities and Banking revenues rose 34% from the prior year period to $4.3 billion. Excluding the impact of the $(510) million of CVA/DVA in the fourth quarter 2012 (compared to $(74) million in the prior year period), Securities and Banking revenues were $4.8 billion, 47% higher than the prior year period.

Investment Banking revenues of $996 million increased 56% from the prior year period. Debt underwriting revenues increased 62% to $632 million and equity underwriting revenues increased 78% to $160 million. Advisory revenues of $204 million were 28% higher than the prior year period. Overall, Citi gained wallet share during 2012 in most products and regions.

Equity Markets revenues of $455 million in the fourth quarter 2012 (excluding $(74) million of CVA/DVA) were 95% above the prior year period, driven by improved derivatives performance as well as the absence of proprietary trading losses in the prior year period.

Fixed Income revenues of $2.7 billion in the fourth quarter 2012 (excluding $(434) million of CVA/DVA) increased 58% from the prior year driven by significant improvement in credit and securitized products, as well as higher revenues in rates and currencies.

Lending revenues decreased 16% to $139 million from the prior year period, reflecting $258 million of mark-to-market losses on hedges related to accrual loans as credit spreads tightened during the fourth quarter 2012 (compared to a $174 million loss in the prior year period). Excluding the mark-to-market impact on hedges related to accrual loans, lending revenues rose 17% to $397 million(9) versus the prior year period reflecting higher loan balances and improved spreads.

Private Bank revenues increased 12% to $578 million (excluding $(2) million of CVA/DVA) from the prior year period, with growth across all regions.

Securities and Banking net income was $629 million in the fourth quarter 2012. Excluding CVA/DVA, net income rose to $945 million from $(118) million in the prior year period, primarily reflecting the increase in revenues and a decline in operating expenses, driven by efficiency savings. Fourth quarter 2012 operating expenses included $237 million in repositioning charges, compared to $215 million in the prior year period. Excluding repositioning charges, operating expenses declined 2% from the prior year period.

Transaction Services

Transaction Services revenues were $2.6 billion, up 1% from the prior year period which reflected 1% growth in Treasury and Trade Solutions (TTS) revenues to $2.0 billion, with Securities and Fund Services (SFS) revenues broadly flat at $656 million. TTS revenues increased as the growth in average assets, particularly trade loans, and deposits continued to be partially offset by ongoing spread compression. SFS revenues remained flat as spread compression was offset by fee revenue growth driven by higher volumes.

Transaction Services net income of $808 million increased 6% from the fourth quarter 2011, reflecting the 1% revenue increase and a lower tax rate, partially offset by a 4% increase in operating expenses. Fourth quarter 2012 operating expenses included $95 million in repositioning charges, compared to $54 million in the prior year period. Excluding repositioning charges, operating expenses grew 2% from the prior year period due to higher legal and related costs and episodic items.

Transaction Services average deposits and other customer liability balances grew 16% versus the prior year period to $428 billion. Assets under custody increased 10% from the fourth quarter 2011 to $13.2 trillion.

Citi Holdings

Citi Holdings revenues in the fourth quarter 2012 decreased 3% versus the prior year period to $1.1 billion. Revenues in the fourth quarter 2012 included CVA/DVA of $25 million ($34 million in the prior year period). Excluding CVA/DVA, Citi Holdings revenues declined 2% to $1.0 billion. Local Consumer Lending revenues of $1.0 billion declined 21% from the prior year period primarily due to the 21% decline in average assets. Special Asset Pool revenues were $(35) million (excluding CVA/DVA of $25 million) in the fourth quarter 2012, compared to $(268) million (excluding CVA/DVA of $34 million) in the prior year period, largely due to an improvement in asset marks. Brokerage and Asset Management revenues were $64 million, compared to $43 million in the prior year period reflecting improved private equity marks. As of the end of the fourth quarter 2012, total Citi Holdings assets were $156 billion, 31% below the prior year period, and represented approximately 8% of total Citigroup assets.

Citi Holdings net loss was $1.1 billion in the fourth quarter 2012 compared to a loss of $1.3 billion in the prior year period. Operating expenses decreased 13% to $1.6 billion reflecting the overall decline in assets. Operating expenses in the fourth quarter 2012 included the previously mentioned $305 million charge related to the independent foreclosure review process, as well as $77 million in repositioning charges, compared to $60 million in the prior year period.

Citi Holdings cost of credit increased 14% to $1.2 billion versus the prior year period driven by a net loan loss reserve build of $51 million in the fourth quarter 2012, compared to a net reserve release of $663 million in the prior year period, as a significantly lower net reserve release of $49 million was more than offset by losses on loan sales of $100 million. Net credit losses in Citi Holdings decreased by $540 million or 36% from the prior year period.

Citi Holdings allowance for credit losses was $10.8 billion at the end of the fourth quarter 2012, or 9.35% of loans, compared to $13.4 billion, or 9.54% of loans, in the prior year period. 90+ days delinquent loans in Local Consumer Lending decreased 21% to $4.6 billion, or 4.4% of loans.

1 Credit valuation adjustments (CVA) on derivatives (counterparty and own-credit), net of hedges, and debt valuation adjustments (DVA) on Citigroup’s fair value option debt. See Appendix A. Presentation of Citigroup’s results of operations, excluding the impact of CVA/DVA, are non-GAAP financial measures. Citigroup believes the presentation of its results of operations excluding the impact of CVA/DVA provides a more meaningful depiction of the underlying fundamentals of its businesses impacted by CVA/DVA. For a reconciliation of these measures to the reported results, see Appendix B.

2 As previously announced, Citigroup recorded a repositioning charge of $1.0 billion ($653 million after-tax) in the fourth quarter 2012. In the fourth quarter 2011, Citigroup reported a $428 million repositioning charge ($275 million after-tax). See Appendix C. Presentation of Citigroup’s results of operations, excluding the impact of repositioning charges in each of these respective quarters, are non-GAAP financial measures. Citigroup believes the presentation of its results of operations excluding the impact of repositioning charges in the fourth quarter 2011 and fourth quarter 2012, which were significantly impacted by repositioning charges (see Appendix C), provides a more meaningful depiction of the underlying fundamentals of its businesses. For a reconciliation of these measures to the reported results, see Appendix B.

3 Citigroup’s estimated Basel III Tier 1 Common Ratio and certain related components are non-GAAP financial measures. Citigroup believes this ratio and its components provide useful information to investors and others by measuring Citigroup’s progress against expected future regulatory capital standards. For the calculation of Citigroup’s estimated Basel III Tier 1 Common Ratio for the periods presented, see Appendix E. Citigroup’s estimated Basel III Tier 1 Common Ratio is based on its current interpretation, expectations and understanding of the respective proposed Basel III requirements and is necessarily subject to final regulatory clarity and rulemaking, model calibration and approvals and other implementation guidance in the U.S.

4 Minority investments refer to the impact of transactions related to Citigroup’s interests in Akbank T.A.S. (Akbank), the Morgan Stanley Smith Barney joint venture (MSSB JV), Housing Development Finance Corporation Ltd. (HDFC) and Shanghai Pudong Development Bank (SPDB) during 2011 and 2012. Third quarter 2012 included a non-cash charge to net income of $4.7 billion ($2.9 billion after-tax) relating to the MSSB JV, consisting of (i) a loss on Citigroup’s sale of a 14% interest in the MSSB JV to Morgan Stanley of $1.4 billion ($800 million after-tax), and (ii) an other-than-temporary impairment of the carrying value of Citigroup’s remaining 35% interest in the MSSB JV of $3.3 billion ($2.1 billion after-tax). These charges were recorded in Citi Holdings – Brokerage and Asset Management. Second quarter 2012 included a loss on the partial sale of Citi’s minority interest in Akbank of $424 million ($274 million after-tax), recorded in Corporate/Other. First quarter 2012 included gains on the sale of Citi’s remaining minority interest in HDFC and its minority interest in SPDB of $1.1 billion ($722 million after-tax) and $542 million ($349 million after-tax), respectively, as well as an impairment charge related to its minority interest in Akbank of $1.2 billion ($763 million after-tax), all recorded in Corporate/Other. Second quarter 2011 included a gain on the partial sale of Citi’s minority interest in HDFC of $199 million ($128 million after-tax), recorded in Corporate/Other. Presentation of Citigroup’s results of operations, excluding the impact of these minority investment transactions, are non-GAAP financial measures. Citigroup believes the presentation of its results of operations excluding the impact of these minority investment transactions provides a more meaningful depiction of the underlying fundamentals of its businesses. For a reconciliation of these measures to the reported results, see Appendix B.

5 Third quarter 2012 results included a $582 million tax benefit related to the resolution of certain tax audit items, recorded in Corporate/Other. Presentation of Citigroup’s results of operations, excluding the impact of this tax benefit, are non-GAAP financial measures. Citigroup believes the presentation of its results of operations excluding the impact of this tax benefit provides a more meaningful depiction of the underlying fundamentals of its businesses. For a reconciliation of these measures to the reported results, see Appendix B.

6 The results of operations for Citicorp include the results of operations of Corporate/Other for all periods presented.

7 Tangible book value per share is a non-GAAP financial measure. This metric is a capital adequacy metric used and relied upon by investors and industry analysts. For a reconciliation of this metric to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, see Appendix F.

8 See Appendix D.

9 Lending revenues exclude the impact of gains / losses on hedges related to accrual loans. Hedges on accrual loans reflect the mark-to-market on credit derivatives used to hedge the corporate loan portfolio. The fixed premium cost of these hedges is included (netted against) the core lending revenues to reflect the cost of the credit protection.
