EX-99.1 3 EXHIBIT 99.1 [Letterhead - (News Release)] FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Tues., January 16, 1996 WELLS FARGO'S FOURTH QUARTER EARNINGS INCREASE 42 PERCENT FOURTH QUARTER PER SHARE EARNINGS INCREASE 59 PERCENT: $6.29 VS. $3.96 A YEAR AGO Wells Fargo & Co. (NYSE:WFC) today reported net income of $306 million for the fourth quarter 1995, compared with $215 million for the fourth quarter of 1994, an increase of 42 percent. Per share earnings for the fourth quarter of 1995 were $6.29, compared with $3.96 in the fourth quarter of 1994, an increase of 59 percent. The percentage increase in per share earnings was greater than the percentage increase in net income due to the Company's stock repurchase program. Earnings for the full year of 1995 were $1.032 billion, or $20.37 per share, compared with $841 million, or $14.78 per share, for 1994. The results for both fourth quarter and full year 1995 reflected a $163 million ($94 million after tax) gain resulting from the sale of the Company's joint venture interest in Wells Fargo Nikko Investment Advisors (WFNIA). Both periods also reflected zero loan loss provisions, compared with $30 million for the fourth quarter of 1994 and $200 million for the full year of 1994. Return on average assets (ROA) was 2.47 percent and return on average common equity (ROE) was 34.98 percent in the fourth quarter of 1995. In the year-ago period, ROA was 1.64 percent and ROE was 23.96 percent. ROA was 2.03 percent and ROE was 29.70 percent for the full year 1995, compared with 1.62 percent and 22.41 percent, respectively, in 1994. "We're pleased to see another quarter of revenue growth resulting from investment spending in some of our core businesses," said Chairman Paul Hazen. "This sustained growth enables us to enter the new year with confidence and optimism." -more- 2/WF Earnings Net interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis was $667 million in the fourth quarter of 1995, up slightly from $656 million a year ago. For the full year 1995, net interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis was $2.655 billion, compared with $2.610 billion for the prior year. The Company's net interest margin for the fourth quarter of 1995 was 6.08 percent, compared with 5.53 percent in the same quarter of 1994. The increase in the margin was substantially attributable to a change in the mix of earning assets. The net interest margin for the full year of 1995 was 5.80 percent, compared with 5.55 percent for 1994. Noninterest income (NII) in the fourth quarter of 1995 was $434 million, up 48 percent from $294 million in the same quarter of 1994. This increase was substantially due to a pretax gain of $163 million resulting from the sale of the Company's joint venture interest in WFNIA to Barclays PLC of the U.K. (Barclays). As part of the sale, Barclays also acquired the Company's MasterWorks division. A significant portion of the NII increase was offset by a $70 million accrual related to the disposition of operations. For the full year 1995, NII was $1.324 billion, compared with $1.200 billion for 1994. Noninterest expense (NIE) in the fourth quarter of 1995 was $563 million, down 2 percent from $577 million in the same quarter of 1994. The decrease reflected lower federal deposit insurance expense resulting from the new rate structure established by the FDIC in 1995. NIE totaled $2.201 billion in 1995, compared with $2.156 billion in 1994. Net charge-offs in the fourth quarter of 1995 totaled $78 million, or .90 percent of average loans (annualized). The largest category of net charge-offs was credit card loans ($66 million), partially reflecting a 28 percent increase in the credit card loan portfolio since the fourth quarter of 1994. For the fourth quarter of 1994, net charge-offs totaled $58 million, or .65 percent of average loans (annualized). The largest category of net charge-offs in that period was also credit card loans ($28 million). For the full year 1995, net charge-offs totaled $288 million, or .83 percent of average total loans. The largest category of net charge-offs was credit card loans ($195 million). Full year 1994 net charge-offs totaled $240 million, or .70 percent of average total loans. The largest category of net charge-offs in that period was also credit card loans ($120 million). At December 31, 1995, the allowance for loan losses equaled 5.04 percent of total loans, compared with 5.46 percent at September 30, 1995 and 5.73 percent at December 31, 1994. -more- 3/WF Earnings At December 31, 1995, total nonaccrual and restructured loans were $552 million, compared with $600 million at September 30, 1995 and $582 million at December 31, 1994. Foreclosed assets were $186 million at December 31, 1995, compared with $214 million at September 30, 1995 and $272 million at December 31, 1994. At December 31, 1995, the Company's preliminary risk-based capital ratios were 12.45 percent for total risk-based capital and 8.80 percent for Tier 1 risk-based capital, exceeding the minimum regulatory guidelines of 8 percent and 4 percent, respectively. At September 30, 1995, these risk-based capital ratios were 12.25 percent and 8.56 percent, respectively. At December 31, 1994, the Company's total risk-based capital ratio was 13.16 percent and the Tier 1 risk- based capital ratio was 9.09 percent. The leverage ratio at December 31, 1995 was 7.45 percent, compared with 6.93 percent at September 30, 1995 and 6.89 percent at December 31, 1994. The ratio of common equity to total assets at December 31, 1995 was 7.09 percent, compared with 6.78 percent at September 30, 1995 and 6.41 percent at December 31, 1994. In October 1995, the FASB agreed to a one-time opportunity for companies to reassess by year-end 1995 their classification of securities under FAS 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. As a result, the Company reclassified all of its held-to-maturity investment securities at cost portfolio to the available-for-sale investment securities at fair value portfolio. ### - 4 - Wells Earnings Wells Fargo & Company and Subsidiaries SUMMARY FINANCIAL DATA -- NEWS RELEASE
