Capital One Reports Record Third Quarter Earnings
FALLS CHURCH, Va., Oct. 13 /PRNewswire/ -- Capital One Financial Corporation (NYSE: COF) today announced record third quarter 1998 earnings of $70.0 million, or $1.00 per share, versus earnings of $66.9 million, or $.96 per share, for the second quarter of 1998 and $49.3 million, or $.73 per share, for the comparable period in the prior year. Earnings per share amounts are reported on a diluted basis.
"This is the strongest quarter in our history: record earnings, record growth in accounts and outstandings, record improvement in credit quality, and record investment in marketing to build our future," said Richard D. Fairbank, Capital One's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "We are on track for 40 percent earnings growth in 1998."
Revenue, defined as managed net interest income and non-interest income,
increased to $705 million in the third quarter of 1998 versus $653 million in the second quarter of 1998, and $549 million for the comparable period in the prior year. For the quarter, Capital One's managed consumer loan balances increased by a record $1.4 billion to $16.3 billion. The Company also added a record 1.3 million net new accounts, bringing total accounts to 14.9 million.
The managed net interest margin was 10.15 percent in the third quarter of 1998, an increase from 9.84 percent in the second quarter of 1998, and 9.05 percent in the comparable period of the prior year. The higher margin from the previous quarter primarily reflects further growth in our customized lending products. Non-interest income increased to $265 million compared to $253 million in the second quarter of 1998, and $219 million over the comparable period in the prior year. This growth continues to reflect increased fees, including annual membership, interchange, overlimit and other fees.
The managed delinquency rate (30+ days) decreased to 4.90 percent as of September 30, 1998, compared with 5.14 percent as of June 30, 1998. The managed net charge-off rate decreased to 5.03 percent for the third quarter of 1998 compared with 5.91 percent in the second quarter of 1998.
"Our credit performance has been outstanding: flat or falling delinquency rates for six consecutive quarters," said Nigel W. Morris, Capital One's President and Chief Operating Officer. "Our successful Information-Based Strategy has led to innovative new products, expanding margins, and new opportunities. At the same time, we continue to maintain our long-time conservative approach to credit."
Marketing investment increased in the third quarter of 1998 to a record $126 million versus $86 million in the second quarter of 1998, and $61 million in the comparable period of the prior year. Other non-interest expenses (excluding marketing and performance-based stock options) for the third quarter of 1998 were $251 million versus $222 million for the second quarter of 1998, and $157 million in the comparable period of the prior year. Operating expenses continue to reflect increased investment in staff levels associated with our growing account base and the impact of expansion into new markets and businesses.
The allowance for loan losses was increased to $231 million or 4.08 percent of on-balance sheet receivables as of September 30, 1998, compared to 4.14 percent as of June 30, 1998. Capital ratios remained strong as of September 30, 1998 at 14.77 percent of reported assets and 6.60 percent of managed assets.
