HUNTINGTON BANCSHARES INCORPORATED REPORTS
2016
THIRD QUARTER EARNINGS
Completion of Transformational FirstMerit Acquisition Highlights Quarter
COLUMBUS, Ohio – Huntington Bancshares Incorporated (NASDAQ: HBAN; www.huntington.com) reported net income for the
2016 third quarter
of
$127 million
, a
$26 million
, or
17%
,
decrease
from the year-ago quarter, impacted by FirstMerit acquisition-related expenses. Earnings per common share for the
2016 third quarter
were
$0.11
, down $0.07, or 39%, from the year-ago quarter. FirstMerit acquisition-related expenses totaled $159 million pretax, or $0.11 per common share. Total revenue increased
24%
over the year-ago quarter.
“We are very excited about the third-quarter acquisition of FirstMerit, which has strengthened the return profile of the company,” said Steve Steinour, chairman, president and CEO. “We delivered solid core fundamental performance for the quarter. Acquisition-related expenses continue to be in line with our expectations and guidance. Auto and mortgage lending were among the significant drivers of organic loan growth during the quarter, complemented by acquisition-related growth. We are entering a new era for Huntington, as we introduce our customer-centric strategies and operating model to new geographies and improve our operating efficiency due to increased scale."
“Integration execution is proceeding on schedule as we move closer to operating as one expanded company with each passing day,” Steinour said. “We have completed workforce onboarding and initial training, and we are laser-focused on customer experience and retention. In addition, we remain confident we will complete the majority of system conversions during the first quarter of 2017, swiftly moving toward our target of realizing $255 million of annualized cost savings."
“We continue to implement revenue synergies that were not included in the original FirstMerit financial model," Steinour said. "For example, as we look forward to further deploying Huntington’s Small Business Administration lending expertise within our expanded customer base and geographies, we are again pleased to rank as the second-highest SBA 7(a) lender nationwide in terms of number of loans. Within our combined geography of Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Pennsylvania and West Virginia, Huntington was ranked first in number of SBA 7(a) loans and total dollars lent. We look forward to an even stronger SBA fiscal year in 2017 as we add lending capabilities in Chicago and Wisconsin.”
"Finally, Huntington is honored today to have been recognized in MONEY Magazine's Best Banks in America for 2016-2017, as the Best Regional Bank: Great Lakes," Steinour said. "We are humbled that MONEY has chosen to recognize our commitment to value, transparency, fairness, service and convenience for our customers, including Huntington as a Best Bank for four out of the past six years."

(1) Assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at estimated fair value on the acquisition date.
Immediately following completion of the acquisition, FirstMerit Bank was merged into The Huntington National Bank. In addition, the management and organization structure was updated to reflect the combined organization. On-boarding of former FirstMerit colleagues and their initial training is complete. Certain of Huntington's products and services are being introduced across the legacy FirstMerit customer base, and customer-facing colleagues are focused on both growing and retaining customers. Technology conversions have commenced and are scheduled to be substantially complete by the middle of the 2017 first quarter. The branch conversion and 102 branch consolidations are scheduled to be completed during the 2017 first quarter.
As part of the FirstMerit transaction, Huntington entered into an agreement to divest thirteen branches in the Canton, Ohio and Ashtabula, Ohio markets, including approximately $0.7 billion of total deposits and $0.1 billion of total loans and leases, to First Commonwealth Financial Corporation. This transaction is expected to close during the 2016 fourth quarter.

Note: 2016 third quarter results reflect inclusion of FirstMerit since August 16, 2016.
Fully-taxable equivalent (FTE) net interest income for the
2016 third quarter
increased
$132 million
, or
26%
, from the
2015 third quarter
. This reflected the benefit from the
$16.4 billion
, or
26%
,
increase
in average earning assets coupled with a 2 basis point improvement in the FTE net interest margin (NIM) to
3.18%
. Average earning asset growth included an
$11.7 billion
, or
24%
,
increase
in average loans and leases, impacted by the mid-quarter FirstMerit acquisition, and a
$4.4 billion
, or
32%
, increase in average securities, impacted by the mid-quarter FirstMerit acquisition. The NIM expansion reflected a 10 basis point increase in earning asset yields and a 2 basis point increase in the benefit from noninterest-bearing funds, partially offset by a 10 basis point increase in funding costs. The 2016 third quarter NIM included 11 basis points of purchase accounting favorable impact.
Compared to the
2016 second quarter
, FTE net interest income increased
$120 million
, or
23%
. Average earning assets increased
$11.8 billion
, or
17%
, sequentially, and the NIM increased 12 basis points. The increase in the NIM reflected an 11 basis point increase in earning asset yields and a 1 basis point decrease in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities.

See Page 8 of Quarterly Financial Supplement for additional detail.
Note: 2016 third quarter results reflect inclusion of FirstMerit since August 16, 2016.
Average earning assets for the
2016 third quarter
increased
$16.4 billion
, or
26%
, from the year-ago quarter. The increase was driven by:
5
|
•
|
$5.2 billion
, or
26%
,
increase
in average C&I loans and leases, impacted by the mid-quarter FirstMerit acquisition. This increase also reflects organic growth in equipment finance leases, automobile dealer floorplan lending, and corporate banking.
|
|
•
|
$4.4 billion
, or
32%
, increase in average securities, impacted by the mid-quarter FirstMerit acquisition, the reinvestment of cash flows and additional investment in Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) Level 1 qualifying securities, and a $0.8 billion increase in direct purchase municipal instruments in our Commercial Banking segment, offset by sales of certain securities following the closing of the FirstMerit acquisition.
|
|
•
|
$2.5 billion
, or
28%
,
increase
in average automobile loans, impacted by the mid-quarter FirstMerit acquisition. The 2016 third quarter represented the eleventh consecutive quarter of greater than $1.0 billion in automobile loan originations, while maintaining our underwriting consistency and discipline.
|
|
•
|
$1.1 billion
, or
20%
, increase in average commercial real estate (CRE) loans, impacted by the mid-quarter FirstMerit acquisition.
|
|
•
|
$1.0 billion
, or
16%
,
increase
in average residential mortgage loans, impacted by the mid-quarter FirstMerit acquisition as well as increased demand for residential mortgage loans across our footprint.
|
|
•
|
$0.9 billion
increase in RV and marine finance loans, reflecting the acquisition of the product offering in the FirstMerit transaction.
|
|
•
|
$0.7 billion
, or
9%
, increase in average home equity loans, impacted by the mid-quarter FirstMerit acquisition.
|
Compared to the
2016 second quarter
, average earning assets
increased
$11.8 billion
, or
17%
. On a reported basis, average loans and leases
increased
$8.8 billion
, or
17%
, primarily reflecting a
$3.6 billion
increase
in average C&I loans, a
$1.1 billion
increase
in average CRE loans, a
$1.3 billion
increase
in average automobile loans, a
$0.8 billion
increase
in home equity loans, and a
$0.8 billion
increase
in residential mortgage loans, as well as the addition of
$0.9 billion
in RV & marine finance loans. Average securities increased
$2.9 billion
, or
19%
. These increases primarily reflected the FirstMerit acquisition.
While not affecting quarterly average balances, approximately $2.6 billion of total loans and leases, comprised of $1.5 billion of automobile loans, $1.0 billion of predominantly non-relationship C&I loans and leases, and $0.1 billion of predominantly non-relationship CRE loans were moved to loans held-for-sale at the end of the 2016 third quarter as part of a continued balance sheet optimization strategy following the closing of the FirstMerit acquisition. As shown on Page 5 of the Quarterly Financial Supplement, total originated loans and leases were $51.8 billion at the end of the 2016 third quarter, a $0.7 billion decrease from the end of the prior quarter. This decrease reflects the previously mentioned movement of loans to loans held-for-sale partially offset by organic loan growth across all categories except other consumer loans.

Overall asset quality remains strong, with modest volatility, including the impact of the FirstMerit loan portfolio. The FirstMerit portfolio quality, composition, and geographic distribution was similar to the legacy Huntington portfolio. The only new loan classification is the RV/marine portfolio, which we are planning to continue offering. Nonaccrual loans and leases (NALs)
increased
$48 million
, or
13%
, from the year-ago quarter to
$404 million
, or
0.61%
of total loans and leases. The year-over-year increase was exclusively centered in the Commercial portfolio and was primarily associated with a small number of energy sector loan relationships which were added to NALs during the 2016 first quarter. Nonperforming assets (NPAs)
increased
$94 million
, or
25%
, from the year-ago quarter to
$475 million
, or
0.72%
of total loans and leases and net OREO. NALs
decreased
$56 million
, or
12%
, from the prior quarter, while NPAs
decreased
$14 million
, or
3%
, from the prior quarter. The linked-quarter decreases primarily resulted from significant pay-downs, offset by an increase in OREO balances from the FirstMerit acquisition. While the energy sector was a primary driver of the NAL activity over the last two quarters, the oil and gas exploration and production (E&P) portfolio continues to represent less than 1% of total loans outstanding at quarter end.
The provision for credit losses
increased
$41 million
, or
184%
, year-over-year to
$64 million
in the
2016 third quarter
. Net charge-offs (NCOs)
increased
$24 million
, or
148%
, to
$40 million
. NCOs represented an annualized
0.26%
of average loans and leases in the current quarter, up from
0.13%
in the prior quarter and
0.13%
in the year-ago quarter. The linked-quarter increase was centered in the C&I portfolio and normal seasonal changes in the consumer portfolios. The year-over-year change was a function of material commercial recoveries in the year ago quarter combined with higher automobile and other consumer losses based on portfolio growth. We continue to be pleased with the net charge-off performance within each portfolio and in total.
Commercial charge-offs were positively impacted by continued recoveries in the CRE portfolio and broader continued successful workout strategies, while consumer charge-offs remained within our expected range. Overall consumer credit metrics, led by the residential mortgage and home equity portfolios, continued to show an improving trend, while the commercial portfolios continued to experience some quarter-to-quarter volatility based on the absolute low level of problem loans.
The period-end allowance for credit losses (ACL) as a percentage of total loans and leases decreased to
1.06%
from
1.32%
a year ago, while the ACL as a percentage of period-end total NALs decreased to
174%
from
184%
. We believe the level of the ACL is appropriate given the improvement in the credit quality metrics and the current composition of the overall loan and lease portfolio. The decline in the coverage ratios is a function of the purchase accounting impact associated with FirstMerit.

The tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio was
7.14%
at
September 30, 2016
, down 75 basis points from a year ago. Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) risk-based capital ratio was
9.09%
at
September 30, 2016
, down from
9.72%
a year ago. The regulatory Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio was
10.40%
compared to
10.49%
at
September 30, 2015
. All capital ratios were impacted by the $1.3 billion of goodwill created and the issuance of
12
$2.8 billion of common stock as part of the FirstMerit acquisition, as well as to a lesser extent the repurchase of 2.5 million common shares during the 2015 fourth quarter under the repurchase authorization included in the 2015 CCAR capital plan. The regulatory Tier 1 risk-based and total risk-based capital ratios benefited from the issuance of $400 million and $200 million of Class D preferred equity during the 2016 first and second quarters, respectively, and the issuance of $100 million of Class C preferred equity during the 2016 third quarter in exchange for FirstMerit preferred equity in conjunction with the acquisition. The total risk-based capital ratio was impacted by the repurchase of $25 million of trust preferred securities during the 2016 third quarter.
Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes in the
2016 third quarter
was
$25 million
, compared to
$47 million
in the
2015 third quarter
. The effective tax rates for the
2016 third quarter
and
2015 third quarter
were
16.3%
and
23.5%
, respectively. The variance between the 2016 third quarter and 2015 third quarter provision for income taxes and effective tax rates relates primarily to the Significant Items.
At
September 30, 2016
, we had a net federal deferred tax asset of $172 million and a net state deferred tax asset of $43 million.
Expectations
“Our priority for the remainder of the year and for 2017 is the successful integration of FirstMerit,” Steinour said. “We anticipate improving U.S. economic conditions in the fourth quarter. Guidance from the Federal Reserve also makes an interest rate increase appear likely in the near term, which would be incrementally helpful to our bottom line. We will remain diligent in the execution of our strategies, sensibly balancing investment and risk to stay on course for long-term growth. Our balance sheet optimization strategy will help rebuild our capital ratios more quickly, providing greater flexibility in our capital planning for 2017.”
Excluding Significant Items, we expect total revenues for the full year 2016 to increase 16%-18%, while we expect noninterest expenses to increase 13%-15%. We expect to deliver positive operating leverage for the fourth consecutive year. We expect the effective tax rate for the full year 2016 to be in the 24%-25% range, excluding Significant Items which are taxed at an approximate 35% rate.
Overall, asset quality metrics are expected to remain near current levels, with moderate quarterly volatility. We anticipate NCOs for the full year 2016 will remain below our long-term normalized range of 35 to 55 basis points.

While there is no assurance that any list of risks and uncertainties or risk factors is complete, below are certain factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained or implied in the forward-looking statements: changes in general economic, political, or industry conditions; uncertainty in U.S. fiscal and monetary policy, including the interest rate policies of the Federal Reserve Board; volatility and disruptions in global capital and credit markets; movements in interest rates; competitive pressures on product pricing and services; success, impact, and timing of our business strategies, including market acceptance of any new products or
13
services implementing our “Fair Play” banking philosophy; the nature, extent, timing, and results of governmental actions, examinations, reviews, reforms, regulations, and interpretations, including those related to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the Basel III regulatory capital reforms, as well as those involving the OCC, Federal Reserve, FDIC, and CFPB; the possibility that the anticipated benefits of the merger with FirstMerit Corporation are not realized when expected or at all, including as a result of the impact of, or problems arising from, the integration of the two companies or as a result of the strength of the economy and competitive factors in the areas where we do business; diversion of management’s attention from ongoing business operations and opportunities; potential adverse reactions or changes to business or employee relationships, including those resulting from the completion of the merger with FirstMerit Corporation; our ability to complete the integration of FirstMerit Corporation successfully; and other factors that may affect our future results. Additional factors that could cause results to differ materially from those described above can be found in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 and our subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, including for the quarters ended March 31, 2016 and June 30, 2016, each of which is on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and available in the “Investor Relations” section of our website,

Basis of Presentation
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This document contains GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP financial measures where management believes it to be helpful in understanding Huntington’s results of operations or financial position. Where non-GAAP financial measures are used, the comparable GAAP financial measure, as well as the reconciliation to the comparable GAAP financial measure, can be found in this document, conference call slides, or the Form 8-K related to this document, all of which can be found on Huntington’s website at
www.huntington-ir.com
.
Annualized Data
Certain returns, yields, performance ratios, or quarterly growth rates are presented on an “annualized” basis. This is done for analytical and decision-making purposes to better discern underlying performance trends when compared to full-year or year-over-year amounts. For example, loan and deposit growth rates, as well as net charge-off percentages, are most often expressed in terms of an annual rate like 8%. As such, a 2% growth rate for a quarter would represent an annualized 8% growth rate.
Fully-Taxable Equivalent Interest Income and Net Interest Margin
Income from tax-exempt earning assets is increased by an amount equivalent to the taxes that would have been paid if this income had been taxable at statutory rates. This adjustment puts all earning assets, most notably tax-exempt municipal securities and certain lease assets, on a common basis that facilitates comparison of results to results of competitors.
Earnings per Share Equivalent Data
Significant income or expense items may be expressed on a per common share basis. This is done for analytical and decision-making purposes to better discern underlying trends in total corporate earnings per share performance excluding the impact of such items. Investors may also find this information helpful in their evaluation of the company’s financial performance against published earnings per share mean estimate amounts, which typically exclude the impact of Significant Items. Earnings per share equivalents are usually calculated by applying an effective tax rate to a pre-tax amount to derive an after-tax amount, which is divided by the average shares outstanding during the respective reporting period. Occasionally, when the item involves special tax treatment, the after-tax amount is disclosed separately, with this then being the amount used to calculate the earnings per share equivalent.
Rounding
Please note that columns of data in this document may not add due to rounding.
Significant Items
14
From time to time, revenue, expenses, or taxes are impacted by items judged by Management to be outside of ordinary banking activities and/or by items that, while they may be associated with ordinary banking activities, are so unusually large that their outsized impact is believed by Management at that time to be infrequent or short term in nature. We refer to such items as “Significant Items”. Most often, these Significant Items result from factors originating outside the company – e.g., regulatory actions/assessments, windfall gains, changes in accounting principles, one-time tax assessments/refunds, litigation actions, etc. In other cases they may result from Management decisions associated with significant corporate actions out of the ordinary course of business – e.g., merger/restructuring charges, recapitalization actions, goodwill impairment, etc.
Even though certain revenue and expense items are naturally subject to more volatility than others due to changes in market and economic environment conditions, as a general rule volatility alone does not define a Significant Item. For example, changes in the provision for credit losses, gains/losses from investment activities, asset valuation write-downs, etc., reflect ordinary banking activities and are, therefore, typically excluded from consideration as a Significant Item.
Management believes the disclosure of “Significant Items”, when appropriate, aids analysts/investors in better understanding corporate performance and trends so that they can ascertain which of such items, if any, they may wish to include/exclude from their analysis of the company’s performance - i.e., within the context of determining how that performance differed from their expectations, as well as how, if at all, to adjust their estimates of future performance accordingly. To this end, Management has adopted a practice of listing “Significant Items” in its external disclosure documents (e.g., earnings press releases, quarterly performance discussions, investor presentations, Forms 10-Q and 10-K).
“Significant Items” for any particular period are not intended to be a complete list of items that may materially impact current or future period performance. A number of items could materially impact these periods, including those described in Huntington’s 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K and other factors described from time to time in Huntington’s other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
