Net income from core operations is a non-GAAP financial measure defined by the Company as net income of the Advanta Business Cards segment and the Venture Capital segment with the exception of venture capital valuation adjustments, net of tax. Third quarter 2003 consolidated net income includes a $0.05 per diluted share asset valuation charge associated with the Company's venture capital portfolio. "The execution of our strategy has delivered another quarter of solid results that were in line with our expectations," said Dennis Alter, Chairman and CEO. "We established new alliances that broaden our reach in the small business community and deepen our relationship with targeted, higher credit quality customers." Business Card results for the third quarter include a 66 basis point decline in net principal charge-offs on managed receivables to 8.27% on an annualized basis as compared to 8.93% for the quarter ended September 30, 2002. Over 30 day delinquencies on managed receivables declined 51 basis points to 6.15% and over 90 day delinquencies on managed receivables decreased 14 basis points to 2.85% as compared to third quarter 2002.

ADVANTA CORP. SUPPLEMENTAL NON-GAAP DISCLOSURE ADVANTA BUSINESS CARDS MANAGED INCOME STATEMENT (in thousands) In addition to evaluating the financial performance of the Advanta Business Cards segment under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), we evaluate Advanta Business Cards' performance on a managed basis. Our managed receivable portfolio is comprised of both owned and securitized business credit card receivables. We sell business credit card receivables through securitizations accounted for as sales under GAAP. We continue to own and service the accounts that generate the securitized receivables. Managed data presents performance as if the securitized receivables had not been sold. We believe that performance on a managed basis provides useful supplemental information because we retain interests in the securitized receivables and, therefore, we have a financial interest in and exposure to the performance of the securitized receivables. Revenue and credit data on the managed portfolio provides additional information useful in understanding the performance of the retained interests in securitizations. A reconciliation of these managed financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is included in this press release.

Management believes the analysis of net income from core operations provides useful supplemental information needed to make meaningful comparisons of our current results to prior and future periods. Venture capital valuation adjustments are excluded from results of core operations because of their volatility related to market conditions. Net income (loss) of the Other segment and results of discontinued operations are also excluded, if applicable, since they are not indicative of what is expected from our continuing businesses on a prospective basis.

Effective October 1, 2002, we continue to bill and recognize interest and fees on accounts when they become 90 days past due, and an additional allowance for receivable losses is established for the additional billings estimated to be uncollectible through a provision for interest and fee losses. The billing and recognition of interest and fees is still discontinued when the account is classified as fraudulent, bankrupt, deceased, hardship or credit counseling. Provisions for interest and fee losses are recorded as direct reductions to interest and fee income. (B) Managed statistics are non-GAAP financial measures and represent the sum of owned (GAAP) business credit card statistics and securitized business credit card statistics. We believe that performance on a managed basis provides useful supplemental information because we retain interests in the securitized receivables and, therefore, we have a financial interest in and exposure to the performance of the securitized receivables.
