  • Third-quarter 2012 earnings included pretax gains of $4.8 million related to investments.

"City National delivered another solid performance in the third quarter, and the company is well on the way to achieving its 20 th consecutive year of profitability," said President and CEO Russell Goldsmith.  "Net income, earnings per share, revenue, loans and deposits all continued to grow at double-digit rates, and for the first time assets exceeded $26 billion. New loan production reached a record level for the third quarter in a row.  Credit quality was sound, and expenses remained in check. At the same time, we continued to selectively invest in new people, products and technologies, new companies and capabilities.

"During the third quarter, strong organic growth, especially from new clients, drove income growth, along with the acquisitions of Rochdale Investment Management and First American Equipment Finance. City National also successfully launched its personal mobile banking in the quarter, and it will be followed by business mobile banking in the fourth quarter."

ASSETS

Total assets at September 30, 2012 grew to a record $26.3 billion, up 14 percent from the third quarter of 2011 and 6 percent from the second quarter of this year. The year-over-year increase largely reflects strong loan growth and an increase in the securities portfolio due to strong deposit growth.

REVENUE

Revenue for the third quarter of 2012 reached a record $317.2 million, up 18 percent from the year-ago period and up 9 percent from the second quarter of 2012. Revenue for the first nine months of this year was $884.8 million, up 7 percent from the same period of 2011.

NET INTEREST INCOME

Fully taxable-equivalent net interest income was $214.8 million in the third quarter of 2012, up 6 percent from the third quarter of 2011 but down 3 percent from the second quarter of this year. Fully taxable-equivalent net interest income for the first nine months of 2012 was $641.6 million, up 10 percent from $584.3 million in the year-ago period.

Average third-quarter deposits were $21.9 billion, up 11 percent from the year-ago period and up 5 percent from the second quarter of 2012. Average deposits for the first nine months of 2012 totaled $21.0 billion, up 11 percent from the same period of 2011. Period-end deposits grew to a record $22.5 billion, up 13 percent from September 30, 2011 and up 7 percent from June 30, 2012.

Average core deposits were $21.2 billion in the third quarter of 2012, up 12 percent from the same period of 2011 and up 5 percent from the second quarter of this year. Year-to-date 2012 average core deposits grew 12 percent from the year-ago period to $20.3 billion.

Third-quarter 2012 average noninterest-bearing deposits were up 32 percent from the same period of 2011 and up 8 percent from the second quarter of 2012. Average noninterest-bearing deposit balances in the first nine months of 2012 were up 31 percent from the same period last year.

Treasury Services deposit balances, which consist primarily of title, escrow and property management deposits, averaged $2.3 billion in the third quarter of 2012, up 21 percent from the same period of last year and up 7 percent from the second quarter of 2012. For the first nine months of 2012, Treasury Services deposit balances averaged $2.1 billion, up 22 percent from the same period of 2011.  The increases reflect an increase in residential refinance activity, as well as sales of existing homes during the quarter.

Third-quarter average loan and lease balances, excluding FDIC-covered loans, were $13.6 billion, up 15 percent from the third quarter of 2011 and up 4 percent from the second quarter of this year. Excluding leases obtained in the company's acquisition of First American Equipment Finance, third-quarter average loan and lease balances increased 13 percent from the year-ago period.

For the first nine months of 2012, City National's average loans and leases, excluding FDIC-covered loans, were $13.1 billion, up 13 percent from the year-ago period.  Excluding leases obtained in the company's acquisition of First American, year-to-date average loan and lease balances increased 12 percent from the year-ago period.

Third-quarter average commercial loans were up 24 percent from the year-ago period and 5 percent higher than the second quarter of 2012.  The year-over-year increase was primarily due to organic loan growth, as well as the acquisition of First American. Average balances for commercial real estate mortgages were up 27 percent from the third quarter of 2011, and they increased 7 percent from the second quarter of this year. Average balances for commercial real estate construction loans were down 24 percent from the third quarter of last year, and they declined 15 percent from the second quarter of 2012.

Average balances for single-family residential mortgage loans, nearly all of which are made to City National's private banking and entertainment industry clients, were up 4 percent from the year-ago period and 1 percent higher than the second quarter of 2012.

Average securities for the third quarter of 2012 totaled $8.6 billion, up 24 percent from the third quarter of 2011 and up 11 percent from the second quarter of this year, as period-end deposit growth outpaced loan growth. The average duration of total securities at September 30, 2012 was 2.8 compared to 2.1 at September 30, 2011 and 3.0 at the end of the second quarter of 2012.

City National's net interest margin in the third quarter of 2012 averaged 3.58 percent, compared with 3.91 percent in the second quarter of this year and 3.79 percent in the third quarter of 2011. The second-quarter net interest margin reflected the recovery of a previously charged-off loan, and the decline in the third quarter was due primarily to lower interest income related to covered loans that were repaid or charged off in the third quarter, lower loan yields, and continuing deposit growth. The company continued to invest a large share of its growing deposits in securities and other liquid assets. For the first nine months of 2012, City National's net interest margin averaged 3.74 percent, down from 3.82 percent in the previous year. 

Third-quarter net interest income included $22.2 million from FDIC-covered loans that were repaid or charged off during the quarter. This compares with $18.3 million in the third quarter of 2011 and $27.4 million in the second quarter of this year.

At September 30, 2012, City National's prime lending rate was 3.25 percent, unchanged from both September 30, 2011 and June 30, 2012.

COVERED ASSETS

Loans and other real estate owned (OREO) assets acquired in City National's FDIC‑assisted bank acquisitions totaled $1.2 billion at the end of the third quarter of 2012 compared to $1.7 billion at September 30, 2011 and $1.3 billion at June 30, 2012.

In the third quarter of 2012, the company recorded a $2.6 million non-cash net gain to reflect results of the quarterly update of cash-flow projections for the FDIC-covered loans. The gain reflects an $18.1 million provision for losses on covered loans and an offsetting $20.7 million of noninterest income related to City National's loss-sharing agreements with the FDIC.  In addition to the $2.6 million non-cash gain for the quarter, the company recognized $0.8 million of other covered assets expense. Income, net of expense, from FDIC-covered assets, excluding the base yield, totaled $1.8 million in the third quarter of 2012, down from $7.3 million in the second quarter of this year. (The base yield is the yield on covered assets, excluding income related to covered loans that are repaid or charged off.) The decrease from $7.3 million in the second quarter was due primarily to lower income from loans that were repaid or charged off.

City National will continue to update cash-flow projections for covered loans on a quarterly basis. Due to the uncertainty in the future performance of the covered loans, additional impairments may be recognized in the future.

OREO assets acquired by City National in four FDIC-assisted bank acquisitions and subject to loss-sharing agreements totaled $83.6 million at September 30, 2012, compared to $102.8 million in the third quarter of 2011 and $82.8 million at the end of the second quarter of this year.

NONINTEREST INCOME

Noninterest income was $107.3 million in the third quarter of 2012, up 54 percent from the year-ago quarter and 43 percent higher than the second quarter of 2012. The increases were due to City National's July 2, 2012 acquisition of Rochdale Investment Management, as well as higher FDIC loss-sharing income and distribution income from investments.

City National's noninterest income for the first nine months of 2012 was up 1 percent from the same period of 2011.

In the third quarter of 2012, noninterest income accounted for 34 percent of City National's total revenue compared to 26 percent in both the third quarter of 2011 and the second quarter of 2012.

Wealth Management

City National's assets under management totaled $38.0 billion as of September 30, 2012, up 13 percent from the year-earlier period and 18 percent higher than the second quarter of 2012.

Trust and investment fees were $43.5 million, up 23 percent from the third quarter of 2011 and 28 percent higher than the second quarter of 2012. Year-to-date 2012 trust and investment fee income was up 3 percent from the same period last year.  The increases in assets under management and trust and investment fees were due primarily to the Rochdale acquisition.

Brokerage and mutual fund fees totaled $9.1 million, up 78 percent from the year-earlier period and 71 percent higher than the second quarter of 2012. Brokerage and mutual fund fee income was $19.4 million in the first nine months of this year, up 24 percent from the same period of 2011. The increases in mutual fund fees were due primarily to slightly higher short-term interest rates. The increases in brokerage fees were due to both the acquisition of Rochdale and growth within City National Securities. Not including the Rochdale acquisition, brokerage and mutual fund fees grew 14 percent from the second quarter of 2012 and 5 percent year to date. 1

Other income was $27.7 million in the third quarter of 2012, up 105 percent from the year-earlier period and 59 percent higher than the second quarter of 2012. The increases largely reflect gains from investments and trading securities, lease income from First American Equipment Finance, and the growth of income from client swap transactions.  Other income in the first nine months of this year was $58.6 million, up 1 percent from the year-ago period.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE

City National's third-quarter 2012 noninterest expense amounted to $207.9 million, up 5 percent from the third quarter of last year and 7 percent from the second quarter of 2012. The increases were due largely to the acquisitions of Rochdale Investment Management and First American Equipment Finance. Noninterest expense for the first nine months of 2012 amounted to $603.1 million, down 1 percent from the same period of last year.

INCOME TAXES

City National's effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2012 was 32.6 percent, up from 27.7 percent in the year-earlier period but down from 33.1 percent in the second quarter of 2012.  For the first nine months of 2012, City National's effective tax rate was 32.5 percent, compared to 29.4 percent in the prior-year period. The increases from last year were due primarily to higher pretax income.

CAPITAL LEVELS

City National remains well-capitalized, ending the third quarter of 2012 with a Tier 1 common shareholders' equity ratio of 9.1 percent compared to 10.2 percent at September 30, 2011 and 9.6 percent at June 30, 2012. 1 The change from prior periods is a reflection of both asset growth and the acquisitions of Rochdale Investment Management and First American Equipment Finance.

2012 OUTLOOK

City National's management continues to anticipate net income growth in 2012, as loans and deposits continue to increase and credit quality remains stable. This outlook reflects management's expectations for modest economic growth and loan-loss provisions as well as low interest rates for the remainder of the year.

A number of factors, many of which are beyond the company's ability to control or predict, could cause future results to differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements.  These factors include: (1) changes in general economic, political, or industry conditions and the related credit and market conditions and the impact they have on the company and its customers, including changes in consumer spending, borrowing and savings habits; (2) the impact on financial markets and the economy of the level of U.S. and European debt; (3) the effects of and changes in trade and monetary and fiscal policies and laws, including the interest rate policies of the Federal Reserve Board; (4) continued delay in the pace of economic recovery and continued stagnant or decreasing employment levels; (5) the effect of the enactment of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 and the rules and regulations to be promulgated by supervisory and oversight agencies implementing the new legislation, taking into account that the precise timing, extent and nature of such rules and regulations and the impact on the company is uncertain; (6) the impact of revised capital requirements under Basel III; (7) significant changes in applicable laws and regulations, including those concerning taxes, banking and securities; (8) volatility in the municipal bond market; (9) changes in the level of nonperforming assets, charge-offs, other real estate owned and provision expense; (10) incorrect assumptions in the value of the loans acquired in FDIC-assisted acquisitions resulting in greater than anticipated losses in the acquired loan portfolios exceeding the losses covered by the loss-sharing agreements with the FDIC; (11) changes in inflation, interest rates, and market liquidity which may impact interest margins and impact funding sources; (12) adequacy of the company's enterprise risk management framework; (13) the company's ability to attract new employees and retain and motivate existing employees; (14) increased competition in the company's markets and our ability to increase market share and control expenses; (15) changes in the financial performance and/or condition of the company's borrowers, including adverse impact on loan utilization rates, delinquencies, defaults and customers' ability to meet certain credit obligations, changes in customers' suppliers, and other counterparties' performance and creditworthiness; (16) a substantial and permanent loss of either client accounts and/or assets under management at the company's investment advisory affiliates or its wealth management division; (17) soundness of other financial institutions which could adversely affect the company; (18) protracted labor disputes in the company's markets; (19) the impact of natural disasters, terrorist activities or international hostilities on the operations of our business or the value of collateral; (20) the effect of acquisitions and integration of acquired businesses and de novo branching efforts; (21) changes in accounting policies or procedures as may be required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or regulatory agencies; (22) the impact of cyber security attacks or other disruptions to the company's information systems and any resulting compromise of data or disruptions in service; and (23) the success of the company at managing the risks involved in the foregoing.

Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and the company does not undertake to update forward-looking statements to reflect circumstances or events that occur after the date the statements are made, or to update earnings guidance, including the factors that influence earnings.

(1) In accordance with applicable bank regulatory guidelines, the Company calculates risk-weighted assets by assigning assets and credit equivalent amounts of derivatives and off-balance sheet items to one of several broad risk categories according to the obligor, or, if relevant, the guarantor or the nature of the 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 added together for determining risk-weighted assets.                  
(2) The Tier 1 common shareholders' equity to risk-weighted assets ratio and tangible equity to tangible assets ratio are non-GAAP financial measures. See page 15 and 16 for notes on non-GAAP measures.

COMPUTATION OF BASIC AND DILUTED EARNINGS PER SHARE              
(unaudited)                  
                   
City National Corporation applies the two-class method of computing basic and diluted earnings per share ("EPS"). Under the two-class method, EPS is determined for each class of common stock and participating security according to dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings. The Company grants restricted stock and restricted stock units under a share-based compensation plan that qualify as participating securities. The computation of basic and diluted EPS is presented in the following table:

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES                  
(unaudited)                  
                   
(a) Tangible equity ratios                  
                   
Tangible equity to tangible assets is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents total equity less identifiable intangible assets and goodwill divided by total assets less identifiable intangible assets and goodwill. Management reviews this measure in evaluating the Company's capital levels and has included the ratio in response to market participants' interest in tangible equity as a measure of capital. A reconciliation of the GAAP to non-GAAP measure is set forth below:

(b) Tier 1 common shareholders' equity to risk-based assets                  
                   
The Tier 1 common shareholders' equity to risk-based assets ratio, also known as Tier 1 common ratio, is calculated by dividing (a) Tier 1 capital less non-common components including qualifying noncontrolling interest in subsidiaries and qualifying trust preferred securities by (b) risk-weighted assets. Tier 1 capital and risk-weighted assets are calculated in accordance with applicable bank regulatory guidelines. This ratio is a non-GAAP measure that is used by investors, analysts and bank regulatory agencies to assess the capital position of financial services companies. Management reviews this measure in evaluating the Company's capital levels and has included these ratios in response to market participants' interest in the Tier 1 common shareholders' equity to risk-based assets ratio.

(c) Brokerage and money market mutual fund fees, excluding Rochdale fees                  
                   
Brokerage and money market mutual fund fees for the third quarter of 2012 were $9.1 million, an increase of 71 percent from the second quarter of 2012. Brokerage and money market mutual fund fees for the first nine months of 2012 were $19.4 million, an increase of 24 percent from the same period in 2011. Both current periods included $3.0 million of fee income from the July 2, 2012 acquisition of Rochdale Investment Management. Excluding this amount, brokerage and money market mutual fund fees increased 14 percent during the third quarter of 2012 from the second quarter of 2012, and increased 5 percent for the first nine months of 2012 compared to the year-earlier period.
                   
Management believes this non-GAAP financial measure enhances the comparability of the financial results with prior periods as well as to highlight the effects of the Rochdale acquisition in the periods presented. The Company believes that investors may find it useful to see this non-GAAP financial measure to analyze the Company's underlying financial performance without the impact of the acquisition.
