NEW YORK, April 20 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation ("BNY Mellon") (NYSE: BK) today reported first quarter income from continuing operations applicable to common shareholders of $601 million, or $0.49 per common share, compared with $363 million, or $0.31 per common share, in the first quarter of 2009 and $712 million, or $0.59 per common share, in the fourth quarter of 2009.
"The economic outlook is clearly improving as demonstrated by the performance of the equity and credit markets. Persistent low interest rates globally continue to be a challenge, but our focus on winning new business together with well-controlled expenses resulted in positive operating leverage," said Robert P. Kelly, chairman and chief executive officer of BNY Mellon.
"We continue to reinvest in our businesses, and during the quarter announced two important asset servicing acquisitions. Both are expected to be immediately accretive to earnings and close in the third quarter," added Mr. Kelly.
First Quarter Results - Unless otherwise noted, all comments begin with the results of the first quarter of 2010 and are compared to the first quarter of 2009, all information is reported on a continuing operations basis and sequential growth rates are unannualized.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
(a) Includes $6 million previously reported as asset and wealth
management fee revenue and $16 million previously reported as
investment income.
(b) Total revenue on a GAAP basis was $3,385 million in the first
quarter of 2010.
- Assets under custody and administration amounted to $22.4 trillion at March 31, 2010, an increase of 15% compared with the prior year and flat sequentially. The year-over-year increase reflects higher market values and new business. Assets under management, excluding securities lending assets, amounted to $1.1 trillion at March 31, 2010. This represents an increase of 25% compared with the prior year and a 1% sequential decrease. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to the acquisition of Insight Investment Management ("Insight") in the fourth quarter of 2009. The sequential decrease primarily reflects outflows of money market assets under management.
- Securities servicing fees, excluding securities lending fee revenue, totaled $1.171 billion, an increase of $35 million year-over-year and a decrease of $41 million sequentially. A year-over-year increase in asset servicing revenue was partially offset by lower issuer and clearing services revenue. Sequentially, higher clearing services revenue was offset by lower issuer services and asset servicing revenue. Comparisons to both prior periods were negatively impacted by lower money market distribution fees. The sequential decrease in issuer services revenue primarily reflects seasonality (depositary receipts) while the lower asset servicing revenue primarily reflects lower volumes and the impact of a stronger U.S. dollar. Securities lending fee revenue totaled $29 million in the first quarter of 2010 compared with $90 million in the prior year period and $29 million sequentially. The year-over-year decrease reflects narrower spreads and lower loan balances.
- Asset and wealth management fees totaled $696 million, an increase of 13% compared with the prior year period and a decrease of 5% sequentially. Asset and wealth management fees, excluding performance fees, increased 12% compared with the prior year period and 1% sequentially. Both increases reflect improved market values, the Insight acquisition and the impact of long-term flows, partially offset by a reduction in fees due to money market outflows and higher fee waivers.
- Foreign exchange and other trading activities totaled $263 million, a decrease of 14% compared with $307 million in the prior year period and an increase of 7% compared with $246 million in the fourth quarter of 2009. The decrease year-over-year primarily reflects lower foreign exchange revenue, driven by lower volatility, partially offset by increased volumes. The sequential increase primarily reflects higher fixed income trading revenue and lower mark to market adjustments on credit default swaps partially offset by lower foreign exchange revenue driven by lower volatility.
- Investment income and Other income totaled $145 million, increasing $147 million year-over-year and $64 million sequentially. Both increases reflect higher lease residual gains and positive foreign currency translations. The year-over-year increase also reflects the write-down of certain equity investments in the first quarter of 2009.
- Net interest revenue (FTE) totaled $770 million compared with $729 million sequentially. The increase reflects the higher yield related to the restructured investment securities portfolio and higher hedging gains, partially offset by lower spreads. The increased yield reflects a full quarter's accretion of the restructured investment securities portfolio. The net interest margin for the first quarter of 2010 was 1.89% compared with 1.77%, sequentially.
- Investment securities pre-tax net gains totaled $7 million compared to a pre-tax net loss of $295 million in the first quarter of 2009 and a $15 million pre-tax net gain in the fourth quarter of 2009.
The provision for credit losses decreased to $35 million in the first quarter of 2010 compared with $65 million in the fourth quarter of 2009. The decrease in the provision reflects improvements in our highest-risk asset classes. During the first quarter of 2010, the total allowance for credit losses increased $10 million and net charge-offs totaled $25 million. Nonperforming assets totaled $459 million, a decrease of $91 million, or 17%, compared with Dec. 31, 2009 primarily due to repayments and charge-offs.

excluding litigation
reserves, restructuring
charges, M&I expenses and

Non-GAAP $2,167 $2,284 $2,095 3% (5)%
------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Total noninterest expense (excluding increased litigation reserves relating to several existing matters, restructuring charges, M&I expenses and intangible amortization) increased 3% compared with the prior year period and decreased 5% sequentially, resulting in 600 basis points of positive operating leverage sequentially and 100 basis points year-over-year. The increase compared with the prior year period primarily reflects the impact of the Insight acquisition, as well as higher incentive expense, subcustodian and clearing expense and software expense. The sequential decrease principally reflects ongoing expense management, lower professional, legal, and other purchased services expense and seasonally lower business development expense, partially offset by the impact of the Insight acquisition.
The effective tax rate was 29.0% in the first quarter of 2010. Excluding the impact of the litigation reserves, restructuring charges and M&I expenses, the effective tax rate was approximately 30.8% (Non-GAAP) in the first quarter of 2010.
The unrealized net of tax losses on our investment securities portfolio improved to $189 million at March 31, 2010 from $705 million at Dec. 31, 2009, primarily due to improved credit spreads.

Adoption of new accounting standard
On Jan. 1, 2010, we adopted SFAS No. 167, "Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46 R" (Topic 810, Consolidations). At March 31, 2010, our balance sheet included $3.1 billion for the consolidation of certain asset management funds, seed capital investments and securitizations, including $394 million of Class A Notes of the Grantor Trust. The new statement increased our balance sheet by $2.7 billion, or approximately 1%, from year-end.
The consolidated asset management funds are disclosed separately on the balance sheet and the securitizations are included in available for sale securities. The income statement separately discloses the operations of consolidated asset management funds ($52 million) and the net income attributable to noncontrolling interests of consolidated asset management funds ($30 million). The net of these income statement line items ($22 million) was previously disclosed in the income statement as asset and wealth management revenue of $6 million and investment income of $16 million.
Investment securities portfolio
At March 31, 2010, the fair value of our investment securities portfolio totaled $55.5 billion. The unrealized pre-tax loss on our securities portfolio was $242 million at March 31, 2010 compared with $1.0 billion at Dec. 31, 2009 and $8.0 billion at March 31, 2009.

operations. Nonperforming assets at March 31, 2009 includes
discontinued operations of $130 million.
Nonperforming assets decreased $91 million compared with Dec. 31, 2009. The decrease primarily resulted from repayments and charge-offs.
Discontinued operations
In the second quarter of 2009, we adopted discontinued operations accounting for Mellon United National Bank ("MUNB") located in Florida. It was determined that this business no longer fit our strategic focus on our asset management and securities servicing businesses. On Jan. 15, 2010, we completed the sale of MUNB. This business was formerly included in the Other segment. In the first quarter of 2010, we recorded an after-tax loss on discontinued operations of $42 million primarily reflecting lower of cost or market write-downs on the retained loans.
Consolidated net income applicable to common shareholders, including discontinued operations
Net income applicable to common shareholders, including discontinued operations, totaled $559 million, or $0.46 per common share, in the first quarter of 2010 compared with $322 million, or $0.28 per common share, in the first quarter of 2009 and $593 million, or $0.49 per common share, in the fourth quarter of 2009.
Supplemental information – Explanation of Non-GAAP financial measures
BNY Mellon has included in this release certain Non-GAAP financial measures based upon tangible common shareholders' equity. BNY Mellon believes that the ratio of tangible common shareholders' equity to tangible total assets of operations is a measure of capital strength that adds additional useful information to investors supplementing the Tier 1 capital ratio which is utilized by regulatory authorities. Unlike the Tier 1 ratio, the tangible common shareholders' equity ratio fully incorporates those changes in investment securities valuations which are reflected in shareholders' equity. In addition, this ratio is expressed as a percentage of the actual book value of assets, as opposed to a percentage of a risk-based reduced value established in accordance with regulatory requirements, although BNY Mellon in its calculation has excluded certain assets which are given a zero percent risk-weighting for regulatory purposes. This ratio is also informative to investors in BNY Mellon's common stock because, unlike the Tier 1 capital ratio, it excludes preferred stock and trust preferred securities issued by BNY Mellon. Further, BNY Mellon believes that the return on tangible common equity measure, which excludes goodwill and intangible assets net of deferred tax liabilities, is a useful additional measure for investors because it presents a measure of BNY Mellon's performance in reference to those assets which are productive in generating income.
BNY Mellon has provided a measure of tangible book value per share, which it believes provides additional useful information as to the level of such assets in relation to shares of common stock outstanding. BNY Mellon has presented revenue measures which exclude the effect of net securities gains (losses) and noncontrolling interests related to consolidated asset management funds and expense measures which exclude litigation reserves, restructuring charges, M&I expenses and intangible amortization expenses; and measures which utilize net income excluding tax items such as discrete tax benefits related to a tax loss on mortgages. Return on equity measures and operating margin measures which exclude some or all of these items are also presented. BNY Mellon believes that these measures are useful to investors because they permit a focus on period to period comparisons which relate to the ability of BNY Mellon to enhance revenues and limit expenses in circumstances where such matters are within BNY Mellon's control. The excluded items in general relate to situations where accounting rules require certain ongoing charges as a result of prior transactions, or where valuation or other accounting/regulatory requirements require charges unrelated to operational initiatives. M&I expenses primarily relate to the merger with Mellon Financial Corporation in 2007. M&I expenses generally continue for approximately three years after the transaction, and can vary on a year-to-year basis depending on the stage of the integration. BNY Mellon believes that the exclusion of M&I expenses provides investors with a focus on BNY Mellon's business as it would appear on a consolidated going-forward basis, after such M&I expenses have ceased, typically after approximately three years. Future periods will not reflect such M&I expenses, and thus may be more easily compared to our current results if M&I expenses are excluded. With regards to the exclusion of net securities gains (losses), BNY Mellon's primary businesses are Asset and Wealth Management and Institutional Services. The management of these sectors is evaluated on the basis of the ability of these businesses to generate fee and net interest revenue and to control expenses, and not on the results of BNY Mellon's investment securities portfolio. Management of the investment securities portfolio is a shared service contained in the Other segment. The primary objective of the investment securities portfolio is to generate net interest revenue from the liquidity generated by BNY Mellon's processing businesses. BNY Mellon does not generally originate or trade the securities in the investment securities portfolio. With regards to higher yields related to the restructured investment securities portfolio, client deposits serve as the primary funds source for our investment securities portfolio and we typically allocate all interest revenue to the businesses generating the deposits. Accordingly, the higher yield related to the restructured investment securities portfolio has been included in the segment results. Restructuring charges relate to migrating positions to global growth centers and the elimination of certain positions. Excluding the discrete tax benefits related to a tax loss on mortgages permits investors to calculate the tax impact of BNY Mellon's primary businesses. The presentation of financial measures excluding litigation reserves in the first quarter of 2010 provides investors with the ability to view performance metrics on the basis that management views results. The presentation of income of consolidated asset management funds, net of noncontrolling interests related to the consolidation of certain asset management funds, permits investors to view revenue on a basis consistent with prior periods. BNY Mellon believes that these presentations, as a supplement to GAAP information, gives investors a clearer picture of the results of its primary businesses.
In this Earnings Release, certain amounts are presented on an FTE basis. We believe that this presentation provides comparability of amounts arising from both taxable and tax exempt sources, and is consistent with industry practice. The adjustment to an FTE basis has no impact on net income.
Each of these measures as described above is used by management to monitor financial performance, both on a company-wide and business segment basis.
