Wells Fargo & Company (NYSE:WFC) reported record net income of $5.6 billion, or $0.99 per diluted common share, for third quarter 2013, up from $4.9 billion, or $0.88 per share, for third quarter 2012, and up from $5.5 billion, or $0.98 per share, for second quarter 2013. For the first nine months of 2013, net income was a record $16.3 billion, or $2.89 per share, compared with $13.8 billion, or $2.45 per share, for the same period in 2012.

“Wells Fargo continued to demonstrate strong and consistent financial performance in the third quarter,” said Chairman and CEO John Stumpf. “As our economy continues to transition to higher interest rates, our diversified business model and strong risk discipline contributed to record earnings per share along with continued strength in return on assets, return on equity and capital. The improvement in the housing market has been beneficial to our customers and significantly contributed to our broad-based credit improvement in the quarter. We also deepened relationships, resulting in increases in cross-sell across the Company. As we look forward, we remain well positioned to meet the needs of our customers and to perform for our shareholders.”

Chief Financial Officer Tim Sloan said, “This was a solid quarter for Wells Fargo. As expected, mortgage banking revenue was lower in the quarter as the recent increases in interest rates reduced refinance volume, but this impact was partially offset by improved credit and lower expenses. Year-over-year, we had strong loan growth, double-digit increases in noninterest income across many of our businesses and continued to build capital and return more to shareholders through dividends and share buybacks.”

Revenue

Revenue was $20.5 billion, compared with $21.4 billion in second quarter 2013. With net interest income stable, revenue declined primarily from lower mortgage banking revenue and trust and investment fees, partially offset by higher market sensitive revenue5 and other income. Businesses generating year-over-year double-digit revenue growth included credit card, personal credit management, retail sales finance and retirement services.

5     Consists of net gains from trading activities, net gains (losses) on debt securities available for sale and net gains from equity investments.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income remained strong in third quarter 2013 at $10.7 billion, essentially unchanged from second quarter 2013. Net interest income benefitted from available-for-sale (AFS) securities portfolio purchases, which consisted largely of agency mortgage-backed securities (MBS), lower funding costs, organic growth in commercial and consumer loans, commercial real estate loan acquisitions, and one additional business day in the quarter. These benefits were offset by lower interest income from mortgages held for sale and reduced income from variable sources, such as purchased credit-impaired (PCI) loan resolutions and periodic dividends.

The Company’s net interest margin declined 8 basis points from the prior quarter to 3.38 percent. Deposit and long-term debt growth and a decline in mortgages held for sale caused cash and short term investments to increase despite growth in other earning asset categories including loans and AFS securities. Although deposit growth has little impact on net interest income, it is dilutive to net interest margin and customer driven deposit growth accounted for 3 basis points of compression. Liquidity-related issuances in the quarter, both term deposits and long-term debt, diluted the margin by approximately 3 basis points. Separately, the net impact of balance sheet repricing and growth also diluted the net interest margin by 1 basis point, while lower income from variable sources, including PCI loan resolutions and periodic dividends, led to another 1 basis point of compression.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income was $9.7 billion, compared with $10.6 billion in second quarter 2013, driven primarily by lower mortgage refinance volume and reduced gain on sale margins. Trust and investment fees declined in the quarter due to reduced investment banking revenue and seasonally lower retail brokerage commissions. These declines were partially offset by increases in debt and equity gains, mortgage banking servicing income and trading revenue.

Mortgage banking noninterest income was $1.6 billion, down from $2.8 billion in second quarter 2013. During the third quarter, residential mortgage originations were $80 billion, down from $112 billion in second quarter 2013. The Company provided $28 million for mortgage loan repurchase losses, compared with $65 million in second quarter 2013 (included in net gains from mortgage loan origination/sales activities). As previously announced, the Company reached an agreement with the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac) on September 27, 2013, that resolved substantially all repurchase liabilities related to loans sold to Freddie Mac prior to January 1, 2009. The agreement was covered through mortgage loan repurchase accruals established in prior periods. Net mortgage servicing rights (MSRs) results were $26 million, compared with $68 million in second quarter 2013.

The Company had net unrealized securities gains of $5.8 billion at September 30, 2013, up from $5.1 billion at June 30, 2013.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense declined $153 million from the prior quarter to $12.1 billion, as higher mortgage-related severance expense and deferred compensation costs (offset in revenue) were more than offset by lower incentive compensation (including mortgage-related), reduced litigation accruals and seasonally lower crop insurance commissions. The efficiency ratio was 59.1 percent in third quarter 2013, compared with 57.3 percent in second quarter 2013. The Company expects to operate within its targeted efficiency ratio range of 55 to 59 percent in fourth quarter 2013.

Income Taxes

The Company’s effective tax rate was 31.9 percent and 33.4 percent for third quarter 2013 and 2012, respectively. The lower effective tax rate in third quarter 2013 reflected a net reduction in the reserve for uncertain tax positions primarily due to settlements with tax authorities regarding certain cross border transactions.

Loans

Total loans were $812.3 billion at September 30, 2013, up $10.4 billion from June 30, 2013. Third quarter loan growth included $5.2 billion of CRE portfolio acquisitions consisting of $4.0 billion of U.K. CRE loans classified within foreign loans and $1.2 billion within commercial real estate mortgage. Growth in the commercial and industrial, real estate 1-4 family first mortgage, credit card, and auto portfolios more than offset the reduction in the non-strategic/liquidating portfolios. Total average loans were $804.8 billion, up $4.5 billion from the prior quarter. The asset-backed finance, corporate banking, credit card, equipment finance, government and institutional banking, mortgage portfolios, personal credit management, retail brokerage, and retail sales finance portfolios all experienced year-over-year double-digit growth.

Deposits

Total average deposits were $1.0 trillion, up 8 percent from a year ago and up 6 percent (annualized) from second quarter 2013. Average core deposits were $940.3 billion, up 5 percent from a year ago and up 2 percent (annualized) from second quarter 2013. Average core checking and savings deposits were $892.9 billion, up 7 percent from a year ago and up 4 percent (annualized) from second quarter 2013. Average mortgage escrow deposits decreased to $34.7 billion, compared with $40.0 billion a year ago and $39.6 billion in second quarter 2013. Average core checking and savings deposits were 95 percent of average core deposits. The average deposit cost for third quarter 2013 improved to 12 basis points, compared with 14 basis points in the prior quarter and 18 basis points a year ago. Average core deposits were 117 percent of average loans, unchanged from second quarter 2013.

Capital

Capital remained strong in the third quarter, with Tier 1 common equity of $120.3 billion under Basel I, or 10.64 percent of risk-weighted assets, compared with 9.92 percent in third quarter 2012 and 10.71 percent in second quarter 2013. Under Basel III capital rules, the Tier 1 common equity ratio was an estimated 9.54 percent.6 In third quarter 2013, the Company purchased 50.9 million shares of its common stock and an additional estimated 9.8 million shares through a forward repurchase transaction expected to settle in fourth quarter 2013. The Company also paid a quarterly common stock dividend of $0.30 per share, up from $0.22 a year ago.

Credit Quality

“Credit performance continued to be very strong in the third quarter. Loss levels improved from the second quarter and were at historically low levels,” said Chief Risk Officer Mike Loughlin. “Credit losses were $975 million in third quarter 2013, compared with $2.4 billion in third quarter 2012, representing a 59 percent year-over-year improvement. The quarterly loss rate fell to 0.48 percent with commercial losses of only 2 basis points and consumer losses of 0.86 percent. The consumer loss levels continued to benefit from the improvement in the residential real estate market, with home prices and market fundamentals improving faster and in more markets than forecasted. Nonperforming assets declined by $360 million, or 7 percent (annualized) from last quarter. We released $900 million from the allowance for credit losses in the third quarter, reflecting improvement in home prices and credit performance. Given these favorable conditions, we continue to expect future reserve releases absent a significant deterioration in the economic environment.”

Net Loan Charge-offs

Net loan charge-offs improved to $975 million in third quarter 2013, or 48 basis points of average loans, compared with $1.2 billion in second quarter 2013, or 58 basis points of average loans.

Nonperforming Assets

Nonperforming assets decreased by $360 million in the quarter to $20.7 billion, from $21.1 billion in second quarter 2013. Nonaccrual loans decreased to $16.9 billion from $17.9 billion in second quarter 2013. Foreclosed assets were $3.8 billion, up from $3.1 billion in second quarter 2013, reflecting an increase in foreclosed assets insured by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) or guaranteed by the Veterans Administration (VA). This increase was primarily driven by enhancements to loan modification programs, slowing foreclosures in prior quarters.

Loans 90 Days or More Past Due and Still Accruing

Loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing (excluding government insured/guaranteed) totaled $1.1 billion at September 30, 2013, compared with $1.2 billion at June 30, 2013. Loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing with repayments insured by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) or predominantly guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) for mortgages and the U.S. Department of Education for student loans under the Federal Family Education Loan Program were $21.1 billion at September 30, 2013, up slightly from $21.0 billion at June 30, 2013.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The allowance for credit losses, including the allowance for unfunded commitments, totaled $15.6 billion at September 30, 2013, down from $16.6 billion at June 30, 2013. The allowance coverage to total loans was 1.93 percent, compared with 2.07 percent in second quarter 2013. The allowance covered 4.0 times annualized third quarter net charge-offs, compared with 3.6 times in the prior quarter. The allowance coverage to nonaccrual loans was 93 percent at both September 30, 2013 and June 30, 2013. “We believe the allowance was appropriate for losses inherent in the loan portfolio at September 30, 2013,” said Loughlin.

Community Banking reported net income of $3.3 billion, up $96 million, or 3 percent, from second quarter 2013. Revenue of $12.2 billion decreased $698 million, or 5 percent, from the prior quarter primarily due to lower mortgage banking revenue, partially offset by higher gains on equity investments and higher deferred compensation plan investment gains (offset in employee benefits expense). Noninterest expense decreased $153 million, or 2 percent, from the prior quarter largely due to lower operating losses and mortgage volume-related expenses, partially offset by higher deferred compensation expense (offset in revenue). The provision for credit losses decreased $523 million from the prior quarter as net charge-offs declined $201 million and portfolio credit performance improved, particularly in residential real estate.

Net income was up $601 million, or 22 percent, from third quarter 2012. Revenue decreased $866 million, or 7 percent, from a year ago due to lower mortgage banking revenue, partially offset by higher net interest income, growth in deposit service charges, higher trust and investment fees, higher debit, credit and merchant card volumes, and higher gains on equity investments. Noninterest expense declined $342 million, or 5 percent, from a year ago largely driven by the elimination of costs related to the OCC’s Independent Foreclosure Review programs, lower operating losses, and lower FDIC deposit insurance assessments. The provision for credit losses decreased $1.4 billion from a year ago as net-charge offs declined $1.3 billion and portfolio credit performance improved, particularly in residential real estate portfolios.

Wholesale Banking reported net income of $2.0 billion, down $31 million, or 2 percent, from second quarter 2013. Revenue of $5.9 billion decreased $264 million, or 4 percent, from prior quarter on lower sales and trading and investment banking results as well as seasonally lower crop insurance fees. Noninterest expense decreased $99 million, or 3 percent, from prior quarter primarily from lower variable personnel expense and seasonal crop insurance commissions.

Net income was down $20 million, or 1 percent, from third quarter 2012. Revenue decreased $78 million, or 1 percent, from a year ago as business growth and strong loan and deposit growth was more than offset by lower sales and trading, PCI resolution income and other income. Noninterest expense increased $176 million, or 6 percent, from a year ago due to higher personnel expenses and support costs. The provision for credit losses decreased $87 million from a year ago due to a $117 million reduction in credit losses. The third quarter 2013 provision included an $80 million reserve release, compared with $110 million a year ago.

  • Five percent average loan growth in third quarter 2013 compared with third quarter 2012. The growth came from nearly all portfolios, including asset-backed finance, capital finance, commercial banking, commercial real estate, corporate banking, equipment finance and government and institutional banking
  • Added $5.2 billion of loans from U.S. and U.K. CRE acquisitions
  • Investment Banking year-to-date 2013 revenue from commercial and corporate customers increased 33 percent from year-to-date 2012 due to attractive capital markets conditions and continued momentum in cross selling
  • Cross-sell of 7.0 products per relationship up from 6.9 in prior quarter
  • Third quarter 2013 treasury management revenue up 10 percent from third quarter 2012
  • Third quarter assets under management up $21 billion from prior quarter to $475 billion, reflecting net client inflows and increased market valuation

Wealth, Brokerage and Retirement reported net income of $450 million, up $16 million, or 4 percent, from second quarter 2013. Revenue of $3.3 billion increased $46 million, or 1 percent, from the prior quarter. Excluding higher gains on deferred compensation plan investments (offset in compensation expense), revenue was in line with prior quarter as increased net interest income was mostly offset by lower brokerage transaction revenue. Noninterest expense increased $77 million, or 3 percent, from prior quarter. Apart from higher deferred compensation expense (offset in trading income), noninterest expense increased $17 million, or 1 percent, due to higher non-personnel expenses, partially offset by a decrease in broker commissions. The provision for credit losses decreased $57 million from second quarter 2013. The provision in third and second quarter 2013 included a $38 million and $5 million reserve release, respectively.

Net income was up $112 million, or 33 percent, from third quarter 2012. Revenue increased $274 million, or 9 percent, from a year ago driven by strong growth in asset-based fees and higher net interest income, partly offset by decreased brokerage transaction revenue. Noninterest expense increased $162 million, or 7 percent, from a year ago largely due to higher personnel expenses, including an increase in broker commissions. The provision for credit losses decreased $68 million from a year ago; the provision in third quarter 2012 included a $10 million reserve release.

Retail Brokerage

  • Client assets of $1.3 trillion, up 8 percent from prior year

Forward-Looking Statements

This document contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. In addition, we may make forward-looking statements in our other documents filed or furnished with the SEC, and our management may make forward-looking statements orally to analysts, investors, representatives of the media and others. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “seeks,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “target,” “projects,” “outlook,” “forecast,” “will,” “may,” “could,” “should,” “can” and similar references to future periods. In particular, forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements we make about: (i) the future operating or financial performance of the Company, including our outlook for future growth; (ii) our noninterest expense and efficiency ratio; (iii) future credit quality and performance, including our expectations regarding future loan losses and allowance releases; (iv) the appropriateness of the allowance for credit losses; (v) our expectations regarding net interest income and net interest margin; (vi) loan growth or the reduction or mitigation of risk in our loan portfolios; (vii) future capital levels and our estimated Tier 1 common equity ratio under Basel III capital standards; (viii) the performance of our mortgage business and any related exposures; (ix) the expected outcome and impact of legal, regulatory and legislative developments, as well as our expectations regarding compliance therewith; (x) future common stock dividends, common share repurchases and other uses of capital; (xi) our targeted range for return on assets and return on equity; (xii) the outcome of contingencies, such as legal proceedings; and (xiii) the Company’s plans, objectives and strategies.

Forward-looking statements are not based on historical facts but instead represent our current expectations and assumptions regarding our business, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Our actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. We caution you, therefore, against relying on any of these forward-looking statements. They are neither statements of historical fact nor guarantees or assurances of future performance. While there is no assurance that any list of risks and uncertainties or risk factors is complete, important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include the following, without limitation:

  • current and future economic and market conditions, including the effects of declines in housing prices, high unemployment rates, U.S. fiscal debt, budget and tax matters, the sovereign debt crisis and economic difficulties in Europe, and the overall slowdown in global economic growth;
  • our capital and liquidity requirements (including under regulatory capital standards, such as the Basel III capital standards) and our ability to generate capital internally or raise capital on favorable terms;
  • financial services reform and other current, pending or future legislation or regulation that could have a negative effect on our revenue and businesses, including the Dodd-Frank Act and other legislation and regulation relating to bank products and services;
  • the extent of our success in our loan modification efforts, as well as the effects of regulatory requirements or guidance regarding loan modifications;
  • the amount of mortgage loan repurchase demands that we receive and our ability to satisfy any such demands without having to repurchase loans related thereto or otherwise indemnify or reimburse third parties, and the credit quality of or losses on such repurchased mortgage loans;
  • negative effects relating to our mortgage servicing and foreclosure practices, including our obligations under the settlement with the Department of Justice and other federal and state government entities, as well as changes in industry standards or practices, regulatory or judicial requirements, penalties or fines, increased servicing and other costs or obligations, including loan modification requirements, or delays or moratoriums on foreclosures;
  • our ability to realize our efficiency ratio target as part of our expense management initiatives, including as a result of business and economic cyclicality, seasonality, changes in our business composition and operating environment, growth in our businesses and/or acquisitions, and unexpected expenses relating to, among other things, litigation and regulatory matters;
  • the effect of the current low interest rate environment or changes in interest rates on our net interest income, net interest margin and our mortgage originations, mortgage servicing rights and mortgages held for sale;
  • a recurrence of significant turbulence or disruption in the capital or financial markets, which could result in, among other things, reduced investor demand for mortgage loans, a reduction in the availability of funding or increased funding costs, and declines in asset values and/or recognition of other-than-temporary impairment on securities held in our available-for-sale portfolio;
  • the effect of a fall in stock market prices on our investment banking business and our fee income from our brokerage, asset and wealth management businesses;
  • reputational damage from negative publicity, protests, fines, penalties and other negative consequences from regulatory violations and legal actions;
  • a failure in or breach of our operational or security systems or infrastructure, or those of our third party vendors or other service providers, including as a result of cyber attacks;
  • the effect of changes in the level of checking or savings account deposits on our funding costs and net interest margin;
  • fiscal and monetary policies of the Federal Reserve Board; and
  • the other risk factors and uncertainties described under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

In addition to the above factors, we also caution that the amount and timing of any future common stock dividends or repurchases will depend on the earnings, cash requirements and financial condition of the Company, market conditions, capital requirements (including under Basel capital standards), common stock issuance requirements, applicable law and regulations (including federal securities laws and federal banking regulations), and other factors deemed relevant by the Company’s Board of Directors, and may be subject to regulatory approval or conditions.

For more information about factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations, refer to our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the discussion under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and available on its website at www.sec.gov.

Any forward-looking statement made by us speaks only as of the date on which it is made. Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required by law.

(4) Consistent with regulatory reporting requirements, foreclosed real estate securing government insured/guaranteed loans is classified as nonperforming. Both principal and interest for government insured/guaranteed loans secured by the foreclosed real estate are collectible because the loans are predominantly insured by the FHA or guaranteed by the VA. Increase in balance at September 30, 2013, reflects the impact of enhancements to loan modification programs, slowing foreclosures in prior quarters.

PURCHASED CREDIT-IMPAIRED (PCI) LOANS
       
Loans purchased with evidence of credit deterioration since origination and for which it is probable that all contractually required payments will not be collected are considered to be credit impaired. PCI loans predominantly represent loans acquired from Wachovia that were deemed to be credit impaired. Evidence of credit quality deterioration as of the purchase date may include statistics such as past due and nonaccrual status, recent borrower credit scores and recent LTV percentages. PCI loans are initially measured at fair value, which includes estimated future credit losses expected to be incurred over the life of the loan. Accordingly, the associated allowance for credit losses related to these loans is not carried over at the acquisition date.

 

Under the accounting guidance for PCI loans, the excess of cash flows expected to be collected over the estimated fair value is referred to as the accretable yield and is recognized in interest income over the remaining life of the loan, or pool of loans, in situations where there is a reasonable expectation about the timing and amount of cash flows expected to be collected. Accordingly, such loans are not classified as nonaccrual and they are considered to be accruing because their interest income relates to the accretable yield recognized under accounting for PCI loans and not to contractual interest payments. The difference between the contractually required payments and the cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition, considering the impact of prepayments, is referred to as the nonaccretable difference.

 

Subsequent to acquisition, we regularly evaluate our estimates of cash flows expected to be collected. These evaluations, performed quarterly, require the continued usage of key assumptions and estimates, similar to the initial estimate of fair value. If we have probable decreases in the expected cash flows (other than due to decreases in interest rate indices and changes in prepayment assumptions), we charge the provision for credit losses, resulting in an increase to the allowance for loan losses. If we have probable and significant increases in the expected cash flows subsequent to establishing an additional allowance, we first reverse any previously established allowance and then increase interest income over the remaining life of the loan, or pool of loans.

 

As a result of PCI loan accounting, certain credit-related ratios cannot be used to compare a portfolio that includes PCI loans against one that does not, or to compare ratios across quarters or years. The ratios particularly affected include the allowance for loan losses and allowance for credit losses as percentages of loans, of nonaccrual loans and of nonperforming assets; nonaccrual loans and nonperforming assets as a percentage of total loans; and net charge-offs as a percentage of loans.

CHANGES IN NONACCRETABLE DIFFERENCE FOR PCI LOANS
 
The difference between the contractually required payments and the cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition, considering the impact of prepayments, is referred to as the nonaccretable difference. A nonaccretable difference is established in purchase accounting for PCI loans to absorb losses expected at that time on those loans. Amounts absorbed by the nonaccretable difference do not affect the income statement or the allowance for credit losses. Substantially all our commercial and industrial, CRE and foreign PCI loans are accounted for as individual loans. Conversely, Pick-a-Pay and other consumer PCI loans have been aggregated into several pools based on common risk characteristics. Each pool is accounted for as a single asset with a single composite interest rate and an aggregate expectation of cash flows. Resolutions of loans may include sales to third parties, receipt of payments in settlement with the borrower, or foreclosure of the collateral. Our policy is to remove an individual loan from a pool based on comparing the amount received from its resolution with its contractual amount. Any difference between these amounts is absorbed by the nonaccretable difference. This removal method assumes that the amount received from resolution approximates pool performance expectations. The accretable yield percentage is unaffected by the resolution and any changes in the effective yield for the remaining loans in the pool are addressed by our quarterly cash flow evaluation process for each pool. For loans that are resolved by payment in full, there is no release of the nonaccretable difference for the pool because there is no difference between the amount received at resolution and the contractual amount of the loan. Modified PCI loans are not removed from a pool even if those loans would otherwise be deemed troubled debt restructurings (TDRs). Modified PCI loans that are accounted for individually are considered TDRs, and removed from PCI accounting, if there has been a concession granted in excess of the original nonaccretable difference. The following table provides an analysis of changes in the nonaccretable difference.

(1) Release of the nonaccretable difference for settlement with borrower, on individually accounted PCI loans, increases interest income in the period of settlement. Pick-a-Pay and Other consumer PCI loans do not reflect nonaccretable difference releases for settlements with borrowers due to pool accounting for those loans, which assumes that the amount received approximates the pool performance expectations.
(2) Release of the nonaccretable difference as a result of sales to third parties increases noninterest income in the period of the sale.
(3) Reclassification of nonaccretable difference to accretable yield for loans with increased cash flow estimates will result in increased interest income as a prospective yield adjustment over the remaining life of the loan or pool of loans.
(4) Write-downs to net realizable value of PCI loans are absorbed by the nonaccretable difference when severe delinquency (normally 180 days) or other indications of severe borrower financial stress exist that indicate there will be a loss of contractually due amounts upon final resolution of the loan. Also includes foreign exchange adjustments related to underlying principal for which the nonaccretable difference was established.

CHANGES IN ACCRETABLE YIELD RELATED TO PCI LOANS
 
The excess of cash flows expected to be collected over the carrying value of PCI loans is referred to as the accretable yield and is accreted into interest income over the estimated lives of the PCI loans using the effective yield method. The accretable yield is affected by:
 

• Changes in interest rate indices for variable rate PCI loans – Expected future cash flows are based on the variable rates in effect at the time of the quarterly assessment of expected cash flows;

• Changes in prepayment assumptions – Prepayments affect the estimated life of PCI loans which may change the amount of interest income, and possibly principal, expected to be collected; and

• Changes in the expected principal and interest payments over the estimated life – Updates to changes in expected cash flows are driven by the credit outlook and actions taken with borrowers. Changes in expected future cash flows from loan modifications are included in the regular evaluations of cash flows expected to be collected.

 
The change in the accretable yield related to PCI loans is presented in the following table.

CHANGES IN ALLOWANCE FOR PCI LOAN LOSSES
 
When it is estimated that the expected cash flows have decreased subsequent to acquisition for a PCI loan or pool of loans, an allowance is established and a provision for additional loss is recorded as a charge to income. The following table summarizes the changes in allowance for PCI loan losses.

(1) The individual states shown in this table represent the top five states based on the total net carrying value of the Pick-a-Pay loans at the beginning of 2013.
(2) Adjusted unpaid principal balance includes write-downs taken on loans where severe delinquency (normally 180 days) or other indications of severe borrower financial stress exist that indicate there will be a loss of contractually due amounts upon final resolution of the loan.
(3) The current LTV ratio is calculated as the adjusted unpaid principal balance divided by the collateral value. Collateral values are generally determined using automated valuation models (AVM) and are updated quarterly. AVMs are computer-based tools used to estimate market values of homes based on processing large volumes of market data including market comparables and price trends for local market areas.
(4) Carrying value, which does not reflect the allowance for loan losses, includes remaining purchase accounting adjustments, which, for PCI loans may include the nonaccretable difference and the accretable yield and, for all other loans, an adjustment to mark the loans to a market yield at date of merger less any subsequent charge-offs.
(5) The ratio of carrying value to current value is calculated as the carrying value divided by the collateral value.

(1) Tier 1 common equity is a non-generally accepted accounting principle (GAAP) financial measure that is used by investors, analysts and bank regulatory agencies to assess the capital position of financial services companies. Management reviews Tier 1 common equity along with other measures of capital as part of its financial analyses and has included this non-GAAP financial information, and the corresponding reconciliation to total equity, because of current interest in such information on the part of market participants.
(2) Under the regulatory guidelines for risk-based capital, on-balance sheet assets and credit equivalent amounts of derivatives and off-balance sheet items are assigned to one of several broad risk categories according to the obligor, or, if relevant, the guarantor or the nature of any collateral. The aggregate dollar amount in each risk category is then multiplied by the risk weight associated with that category. The resulting weighted values from each of the risk categories are aggregated for determining total risk-weighted assets. The Company’s September 30, 2013, risk-weighted assets (RWA) and resulting Tier 1 common equity to total RWA are preliminary and reflect total estimated on-balance sheet and total estimated derivative and off-balance sheet RWA of $908.7 billion and $222.3 billion, respectively.

(1) Tier 1 common equity is a non-generally accepted accounting principle (GAAP) financial measure that is used by investors, analysts and bank regulatory agencies to assess the capital position of financial services companies. Management reviews Tier 1 common equity along with other measures of capital as part of its financial analyses and has included this non-GAAP financial information, and the corresponding reconciliation to total equity, because of current interest in such information on the part of market participants.
(2) The Basel III Tier 1 common equity and risk-weighted assets are estimated based on management’s interpretation of the Basel III capital rules adopted July 2, 2013, by the Federal Reserve Board. The rules establish a new comprehensive capital framework for U.S. banking organizations that implement the Basel III capital framework and certain provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act.
(3) Adjustments from Basel I to Basel III represent reconciling adjustments, primarily certain components of cumulative other comprehensive income deducted for Basel I purposes, to derive Tier 1 common equity under Basel III.
(4) Threshold deductions, as defined under Basel III, include individual and aggregate limitations, as a percentage of Tier 1 common equity, with respect to MSRs (net of related deferred tax liability, which approximates the MSR book value times the applicable statutory tax rates), deferred tax assets and investments in unconsolidated financial companies.
(5) Volatility in interest rates can have a significant impact on the valuation of cumulative other comprehensive income and MSRs and therefore, may impact adjustments from Basel I to Basel III, and MSRs subject to threshold deductions, as defined under Basel III, in future reporting periods.
(6) The final Basel III capital rules provide for two capital frameworks: the “standardized” approach intended to replace Basel I, and the “advanced” approach applicable to certain institutions as originally defined under Basel II. Under the final rules, we will be subject to the lower of our Tier 1 common equity ratio calculated under the standardized approach and under the advanced approach in the assessment of our capital adequacy. Accordingly, the estimate of RWA reflects management’s interpretation of RWA determined under the advanced approach because management expects RWA to be higher using the advanced approach compared with the standardized approach. Basel III capital rules adopted by the Federal Reserve Board incorporate different classification of assets, with certain risk weights based on a borrower’s credit rating or Wells Fargo’s own models, along with adjustments to address a combination of credit/counterparty, operational and market risks, and other Basel III elements.

(1) The management accounting process measures the performance of the operating segments based on our management structure and is not necessarily comparable with other similar information for other financial services companies. We define our operating segments by product type and customer segment. In first quarter 2012, we modified internal funds transfer rates and the allocation of funding.

(2) Includes Wachovia integration expenses, through completion in first quarter 2012, and the elimination of items that are included in both Community Banking and Wealth, Brokerage and Retirement, largely representing services and products for wealth management customers provided in Community Banking stores.

(3) Net interest income is the difference between interest earned on assets and the cost of liabilities to fund those assets. Interest earned includes actual interest earned on segment assets and, if the segment has excess liabilities, interest credits for providing funding to other segments. The cost of liabilities includes interest expense on segment liabilities and, if the segment does not have enough liabilities to fund its assets, a funding charge based on the cost of excess liabilities from another segment.

(4) Represents segment net income (loss) for Community Banking; Wholesale Banking; and Wealth, Brokerage and Retirement segments and Wells Fargo net income for the consolidated company.

(1) Includes repurchase demands of 1,247 and $225 million, 942 and $190 million, 674 and $147 million, 661 and $132 million, and 534 and $111 million, for September 30, June 30 and March 31, 2013, and December 31, and September 30, 2012, respectively, received from investors on mortgage servicing rights acquired from other originators. We generally have the right of recourse against the seller and may be able to recover losses related to such repurchase demands subject to counterparty risk associated with the seller. The number of repurchase demands from GSEs that are from mortgage loans originated in 2006 through 2008 totaled 79% at September 30, 2013.

(2) As part of our representations and warranties in our loan sales contracts, we typically represent to GSEs and private investors that certain loans have mortgage insurance to the extent there are loans that have loan to value ratios in excess of 80% that require mortgage insurance. To the extent the mortgage insurance is rescinded by the mortgage insurer due to a claim of breach of a contractual representation or warranty, the lack of insurance may result in a repurchase demand from an investor. Similar to repurchase demands, we evaluate mortgage insurance rescission notices for validity and appeal for reinstatement if the rescission was not based on a contractual breach. When investor demands are received due to lack of mortgage insurance, they are reported as unresolved repurchase demands based on the applicable investor category for the loan (GSE or private). Over the last year, approximately 10% of our repurchase demands from GSEs had mortgage insurance rescission as one of the reasons for the repurchase demand. Of all the mortgage insurance rescission notices received in 2012, approximately 75% have resulted in repurchase demands through September 2013. Not all mortgage insurance rescissions received in 2012 have been completed through the appeals process with the mortgage insurer and, upon successful appeal, we work with the investor to rescind the repurchase demand.

(3) While the original loan balances related to these demands are presented above, the establishment of the repurchase liability is based on a combination of factors, such as our appeals success rates, reimbursement by correspondent and other third party originators, and projected loss severity, which is driven by the difference between the current loan balance and the estimated collateral value less costs to sell the property.
