Insights

Financial Analyst

KeyCorp's report indicates a notable year-over-year decline in net interest income by 19.9%, primarily due to higher interest rates leading to increased cost of deposits and borrowings. This reflects a challenging environment for maintaining margins in a rising interest rate landscape. The increase in Common Equity Tier 1 ratio to 10.3% suggests a strong capital position, signaling a potential buffer against credit losses and downturns, which is reassuring for stakeholders concerned about financial stability.

Credit Analyst

Analyzing the credit quality, KeyCorp's net loan charge-offs increased year-over-year, which may cause some investor concern regarding asset quality. However, the charge-off rates remain low and the nonperforming loan ratio is at 0.60%, which is relatively healthy. The provision for credit losses of $101 million compared to $139 million in the previous year suggests management expects a stable or improving credit environment. This conservative approach to provisioning underscores a keen awareness of potential credit risks on the horizon.

Investment Banking Analyst

The investment banking and debt placement fees are up 17.2% year-over-year, which highlights KeyCorp's strength in its fee-based businesses, particularly in a challenging interest rate environment. The bank's strategic focus on diversifying revenue streams through its investment banking division appears to be paying off, mitigating some of the impacts from the net interest margin compression. This diversification is a strategic move that can potentially lead to more stable revenue generation, an aspect that can be attractive to long-term investors focused on sustainability of earnings.

CLEVELAND, April 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- KeyCorp (NYSE: KEY) today announced net income from continuing operations attributable to Key common shareholders of $183 million, or $.20 per diluted common share, for the first quarter of 2024. Net income from continuing operations attributable to Key common shareholders was $30 million, or $.03 per diluted common share, for the fourth quarter of 2023 and $275 million, or $.30 per diluted common share, for the first quarter of 2023. Included in the first quarter of 2024 are $22 million, or $.02 per diluted common share, after-tax, of charges related to the FDIC special assessment^(a). Included in the fourth quarter of 2023 are $209 million, or $.22 per diluted common share, after-tax, of charges related to the FDIC special assessment, efficiency related expenses, and a pension settlement charge^(a).

Comments from Chairman and CEO, Chris Gorman

"We are off to a solid start in 2024. Investment Banking posted its best first quarter in our history, net interest income was within the range of guidance that we provided in January, and expenses remained well controlled. Customer deposits were up 2% year-over-year, while relationship households and commercial clients grew 2.5% and 6%, respectively. Net charge-offs and nonperforming loans remained low and below their historical averages.

Our Common Equity Tier 1 ratio rose to 10.3%, bringing our organic capital build to approximately 120 basis points over the past twelve months. Tangible common equity measures were steady to improved, despite the first quarter's increase in interest rates, reflecting the work we have done over the past year to improve our asset liability positioning.

We continued to invest and make progress in our fee-based businesses where we have a differentiated value proposition. Last month, we announced a strategic partnership that will help us accelerate growth in our commercial platform, another example of how we are delivering best-in-class execution services for our clients while concurrently managing risk.

Key is back to playing offense. I remain excited for our future and believe our strong foundation positions us to deliver sound, profitable growth moving forward."

TE = Taxable Equivalent

Taxable-equivalent net interest income was $886 million for the first quarter of 2024 and the net interest margin was 2.02%. Compared to the first quarter of 2023, net interest income decreased by $220 million, and the net interest margin decreased by 45 basis points. While both net interest income and the net interest margin benefited from the reinvestment of proceeds from maturing interest rate swaps, investments, and U.S. Treasury securities into higher-yielding cash and swaps, the decline in net interest income and the net interest margin reflects the higher interest rate environment and Key's balance sheet optimization efforts, which resulted in planned reductions in loan balances. The higher interest rate environment drove earning asset yields higher, but were outpaced by the higher cost of deposits and borrowings. Additionally, the balance sheet experienced a shift in funding mix from noninterest-bearing deposits to higher-cost deposits and borrowings. 

Compared to the fourth quarter of 2023, taxable-equivalent net interest income decreased by $42 million, and the net interest margin decreased by five basis points. Net interest income and the net interest margin benefited from the reinvestment of proceeds from maturing interest rate swaps and U.S. Treasury securities into higher-yielding cash, investments, and swaps. The decline in net interest income and the net interest margin was driven by higher deposit costs, an unfavorable funding mix, and lower loan balances. Additionally, net interest income fell in part because of one less day to earn interest.

N/M = Not Meaningful

Compared to the first quarter of 2023, noninterest income increased by $39 million. The increase was driven by investment banking and debt placement fees, up $25 million, related to strong commercial mortgage and debt capital markets activity. Additionally, commercial mortgage servicing fees increased $10 million.

Compared to the fourth quarter of 2023, noninterest income increased by $37 million. The increase was driven by investment banking and debt placement fees, up $34 million, reflective of increased merger and acquisition advisory fees, syndication fees, and debt and equity capital markets activity. Commercial mortgage servicing fees increased $8 million, which was partly offset by a $7 million decline in cards and payments income.

Compared to the first quarter of 2023, noninterest expense decreased $33 million, reflective of lower personnel expense, which decreased $27 million this quarter, due to lower headcount from efficiency related actions taken last year. In the first quarter of 2024, other expense included $29 million from the FDIC special assessment. See the Selected Items Impact on Earnings table on page 24 for more information.

Compared to the fourth quarter of 2023, noninterest expense decreased by $229 million. The decline was driven by selected items that impacted earnings in the fourth quarter, which included the FDIC special assessment, efficiency related expenses, and a pension settlement charge in the fourth quarter, which collectively totaled $275 million. The decline was partly offset by a $29 million charge related to the FDIC special assessment in the first quarter of 2024, as well as an increase in employee benefits. See the Selected Items Impact on Earnings table on page 24 for more information.

(a)	Commercial and industrial average loan balances include $211 million, $210 million, and $178 million of assets from commercial credit cards at March 31, 2024, December 31, 2023, and March 31, 2023, respectively.

Average loans were $111.0 billion for the first quarter of 2024, a decrease of $8.8 billion compared to the first quarter of 2023, reflective of Key's planned balance sheet optimization efforts. The decline in average loans was mostly driven by lower commercial and industrial loans, as well as a decline in commercial mortgage real estate loans. Additionally, average consumer loans decreased by $2.2 billion, reflective of broad-based declines across all consumer loan categories.

Compared to the fourth quarter of 2023, average loans decreased by $2.9 billion. Average commercial loans declined by $2.2 billion, primarily driven by a decrease in commercial and industrial loans. Additionally, average consumer loans declined $750 million, driven by declines across all consumer loan categories.

Average deposits totaled $142.9 billion for the first quarter of 2024, a decrease of $527 million compared to the year-ago quarter. The decrease was driven by continued changing client behavior reflective of higher interest rates, as well as a decline in wholesale deposit balances.

Compared to the fourth quarter of 2023, average deposits decreased by $2.2 billion. The decline was driven by normal seasonal deposit outflows and a decrease in wholesale deposit balances.

N/A = Not Applicable

Key's provision for credit losses was $101 million, compared to $139 million in the first quarter of 2023 and $102 million in the fourth quarter of 2023. The decline from the year-ago period reflects a more stable economic outlook and the impact of balance sheet optimization efforts, partly offset by portfolio migration.

Net loan charge-offs for the first quarter of 2024 totaled $81 million, or 0.29% of average total loans. These results compare to $45 million, or 0.15%, for the first quarter of 2023 and $76 million, or 0.26%, for the fourth quarter of 2023. Key's allowance for credit losses was $1.8 billion, or 1.66% of total period-end loans at March 31, 2024, compared to 1.38% at March 31, 2023, and 1.60% at December 31, 2023.

At March 31, 2024, Key's nonperforming loans totaled $658 million, which represented 0.60% of period-end portfolio loans. These results compare to 0.35% at March 31, 2023, and 0.51% at December 31, 2023. Nonperforming assets at March 31, 2024, totaled $674 million, and represented 0.61% of period-end portfolio loans and OREO and other nonperforming assets. These results compare to 0.37% at March 31, 2023, and 0.52% at December 31, 2023.

CAPITAL

Key's estimated risk-based capital ratios, included in the following table, continued to exceed all "well-capitalized" regulatory benchmarks at March 31, 2024.

Total risk-based capital (a)	14.5	14.1	12.8
Tangible common equity to tangible assets (b)	5.0	5.1	4.6
Leverage (a)	9.1	9.0	8.8

(a)	March 31, 2024 ratio is estimated and reflects Key's election to adopt the CECL optional transition provision.
(b)	The table entitled "GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations" in the attached financial supplement presents the computations of certain financial measures related to "tangible common equity." The table reconciles the GAAP performance measures to the corresponding non-GAAP measures, which provides a basis for period-to-period comparisons.

Key's regulatory capital position remained strong in the first quarter of 2024. As shown in the preceding table, at March 31, 2024, Key's estimated Common Equity Tier 1 and Tier 1 risk-based capital ratios stood at 10.3% and 12.0%, respectively. Key's tangible common equity ratio was 5.0% at March 31, 2024.

Key elected the CECL phase-in option provided by regulatory guidance which delayed for two years the estimated impact of CECL on regulatory capital and phases it in over three years beginning in 2022. Effective for the first quarter 2022, Key is now in the three-year transition period. On a fully phased-in basis, Key's Common Equity Tier 1 ratio would be reduced by four basis points.

Commercial Bank Summary of Operations (1Q24 vs. 1Q23)

• Key's Commercial Bank recorded net income attributable to Key of $200 million for the first quarter of 2024 compared to $255 million for the year-ago quarter
• Taxable-equivalent net interest income decreased by $87 million, or 18.2%, compared to the first quarter of 2023, primarily reflecting higher interest-bearing deposit costs and a shift in funding mix to higher-cost deposits, as well as Key's balance sheet optimization efforts
• Average loan and lease balances decreased $6.2 billion, or 8.1%, compared to the first quarter of 2023, driven by a decline in commercial and industrial loans
• Average deposit balances increased $3.9 billion compared to the first quarter of 2023, driven by our focus on growing deposits across our commercial businesses
• Provision for credit losses increased $22 million compared to the first quarter of 2023, driven by a more stable economic outlook and the impact of balance sheet optimization efforts, partly offset by portfolio migration
• Noninterest income increased $34 million from the year-ago quarter, primarily driven by an increase in investment banking and debt placement fees and commercial mortgage servicing fees
• Noninterest expense remained unchanged compared to the first quarter of 2023

Basis of Presentation

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This document contains GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP financial measures where management believes it to be helpful in understanding Key's results of operations or financial position. Where non-GAAP financial measures are used, the comparable GAAP financial measure, as well as the reconciliation to the comparable GAAP financial measure, can be found in this document, the financial supplement, or conference call slides related to this document, all of which can be found on Key's website (www.key.com/ir).

Annualized Data
Certain returns, yields, performance ratios, or quarterly growth rates are presented on an "annualized" basis. This is done for analytical and decision-making purposes to better discern underlying performance trends when compared to full-year or year-over-year amounts.

Taxable Equivalent
Income from tax-exempt earning assets is increased by an amount equivalent to the taxes that would have been paid if this income had been taxable at the federal statutory rate. This adjustment puts all earning assets, most notably tax-exempt municipal securities, and certain lease assets, on a common basis that facilitates comparison of results to results of peers.

Earnings Per Share Equivalent
Certain income or expense items may be expressed on a per common share basis. This is done for analytical and decision-making purposes to better discern underlying trends in total consolidated earnings per share performance excluding the impact of such items. When the impact of certain income or expense items is disclosed separately, the after-tax amount is computed using the marginal tax rate, with this then being the amount used to calculate the earnings per share equivalent.

GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations
(Dollars in millions)

The table below presents certain non-GAAP financial measures related to "tangible common equity," "return on average tangible common equity," "pre-provision net revenue," and "cash efficiency ratio."

The tangible common equity ratio and the return on average tangible common equity ratio have been a focus for some investors, and management believes these ratios may assist investors in analyzing Key's capital position without regard to the effects of intangible assets and preferred stock.

The table also shows the computation for pre-provision net revenue, which is not formally defined by GAAP. Management believes that eliminating the effects of the provision for credit losses makes it easier to analyze the results by presenting them on a more comparable basis.

The cash efficiency ratio is a ratio of two non-GAAP performance measures. As such, there is no directly comparable GAAP performance measure. The cash efficiency ratio performance measure removes the impact of Key's intangible asset amortization from the calculation. Management believes this ratio provides greater consistency and comparability between Key's results and those of its peer banks. Additionally, this ratio is used by analysts and investors as they develop earnings forecasts and peer bank analysis.

Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied, and are not audited. Although these non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by investors to evaluate a company, they have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for analyses of results as reported under GAAP.
