NEW YORK – July 28, 2015 – CIT Group Inc. (NYSE: CIT) today reported net income of $115 million, $0.66 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2015, compared to net income of $247 million, $1.29 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2014. Net income for the six month period ended June 30, 2015 was $219 million, $1.24 per diluted share, compared to $364 million, $1.88 per diluted share, for the period ended June 30, 2014.

“I am very pleased that we received regulatory approval for our acquisition of OneWest, which is on track to close next week,” said John A.

Summary of Second Quarter Financial Results from Continuing Operations

All references in this section relate to continuing operations and therefore do not include any of the assets or results of operations of the discontinued operation, which were sold in the second quarter of 2014.

Income from continuing operations of $115 million, net of a $38 million tax provision, reflects a stable Net Finance Margin (NFM) and lower provision for credit losses. Net income includes $4 million of charges related to portfolios that we are exiting.

Total assets from continuing operations1 at June 30, 2015 were $46.7 billion, compared to $46.4 billion at March 31, 2015, and $44.2 billion at June 30, 2014. Financing and leasing assets in North American Commercial Finance (NACF) and Transportation & International Finance (TIF) were $35.6 billion, up slightly from March 31, 2015 and up $1.5 billion (4%) from a year ago reflecting the acquisition of Direct Capital in August 2014, which was partially offset by $0.7 billion of asset sales. Non-Strategic Portfolios further declined to approximately $295 million, reflecting portfolio run-off and asset sales. Total loans of $19.6 billion increased $0.2 billion from March 31, 2015 and by over $1 billion from a year ago. Operating lease equipment of $15.1 billion rose by $0.2 billion from March 31, 2015 and $0.3 billion from a year ago. Cash and securities totaled $7.9 billion, down $0.2 billion from March 31, 2015 and up $0.6 billion from June 30, 2014.

Net finance revenue2 was $343 million, compared to $361 million in the year-ago quarter and $337 million in the prior quarter. Average earning assets were $34.1 billion in the current quarter, up from $33.2 billion in the year-ago quarter and from $33.8 billion in the prior quarter. Net finance revenue as a percentage of average earning assets (“net finance margin”) was 4.02%, compared to 4.35% in the year-ago quarter and 4.00% in the prior quarter. The decline from the year-ago quarter reflected pressure on yields, the lack of interest recoveries and the absence of benefits from accelerated debt redemptions.

Other income of $64 million decreased from $94 million in the year-ago quarter and from $86 million in the prior quarter. The current quarter includes a $9 million tax-related charge, (that was fully offset with a benefit to the tax provision) and a $6 million negative mark-to-market on the TRS derivative. The year-ago quarter benefited from an $11 million positive mark on the TRS derivative and $9 million of counterparty receivable accretion.

Operating expenses were $235 million, compared to $225 million in the year-ago quarter and $242 million in the prior quarter. Restructuring costs were minimal in the current and prior quarter. The increase from the year-ago quarter reflects higher compensation costs, primarily related to the addition of Direct Capital, as well as costs related to the pending acquisition of OneWest. The sequential quarter decline reflects lower compensation costs. Headcount at June 30, 2015 was essentially unchanged from the prior quarter of 3,360 and up from 3,170 a year ago, driven by Direct Capital.

The provision for income taxes was $38 million compared to cash taxes of $4 million. The effective tax rate was approximately 25% in the current quarter, including a $9 million benefit from a favorable resolution of an uncertain tax position, compared to 8% in the year-ago quarter and 30% in the prior quarter. Income tax expense in the year-ago quarter was $18 million and $44 million in the prior quarter.

 

Credit and Allowance for Loan Losses

Credit metrics remain at or near cycle lows. Non-accrual loans increased to $198 million, or 1.01% of finance receivables, at June 30, 2015 from $184 million (0.94%) at March 31, 2015 and $190 million (1.02%) at June 30, 2014. The increase was primarily in International Finance.

The provision for credit losses was $18 million, compared to $10 million in the year-ago quarter and $35 million in the prior quarter. The decline from the prior quarter is primarily due to a decrease in the non-specific reserve. Net charge-offs were $23 million, or 0.48% as a percentage of average finance receivables, versus $21 million (0.45%) in the year-ago quarter and $21 million (0.43%) in the prior quarter. Charge-offs in the quarter were impacted by one energy-related account in NACF whereas the prior quarter mostly reflected transfers of assets to held for sale. Recoveries of $11 million were higher than the $8 million recorded in the year-ago quarter and $6 million in the prior quarter.

The allowance for loan losses was $351 million (1.79% of finance receivables) at June 30, 2015, compared to $357 million (1.83%) at March 31, 2015 and $341 million (1.83%) at June 30, 2014. Specific reserves were $18 million at June 30, 2015, compared to $15 million at March 31, 2015 and $22 million at June 30, 2014.

 

Capital and Funding

Our estimated Common Equity Tier 1 and Total Capital ratios at June 30, 2015 were 14.4% and 15.1%3, as calculated under the fully phased-in Regulatory Capital Rules, compared to 14.1% and 14.8% at March 31, 2015, respectively. At June 30, 2014, Tier 1 and Total Capital ratios reported under the previously effective capital rules were 16.0% and 16.7%, respectively. The change from the year-ago quarter primarily reflects an increase in risk-weighted assets due to higher transportation order book commitments and asset growth and, to a lesser extent, a decline in regulatory capital resulting from goodwill and intangibles recorded with the Direct Capital acquisition. The impact of the change in Regulatory Capital Rules at January 1, 2015 was minimal. Preliminary fully phased-in risk-weighted assets totaled $55.7 billion at June 30, 2015, compared to $56.3 billion in the prior quarter and from $51.0 billion at June 30, 2014.

Book value per share grew to $50.91 at June 30, 2015 from $50.26 at March 31, 2015 and $46.42 at June 30, 2014. Tangible book value per share4 increased to $47.51 at June 30, 2015 from $46.89 at March


3 Preliminary ratios are based on a preliminary fully phased-in Basel III estimate.

4 Tangible book value and tangible book value per share are non-GAAP measures. See “Non-GAAP Measurements” at the end of this press release and page 18 for reconciliation of non-GAAP to GAAP financial information.

31, 2015 and $44.16 at June 30, 2014. The increases in book value and tangible book value per share primarily reflected our net income, including the partial reversals of the valuation allowance in the second half of 2014, and continued net benefit from share repurchases.

Cash and investment securities totaled $7.5 billion at June 30, 2015, and were comprised of $5.5 billion of cash, $0.7 billion of reverse repurchase securities, $0.8 billion of short-term investments and $0.5 billion of debt securities available for sale, compared to $7.7 billion at March 31, 2015 and $6.8 billion at June 30, 2014. Cash and investment securities at June 30, 2015 consisted of $2.6 billion related to the bank holding company and $3.4 billion at CIT Bank (excluding $0.1 billion of restricted cash), with the remainder comprised of cash at operating subsidiaries and other restricted balances of approximately $1.5 billion. CIT had approximately $1.4 billion of unused and committed liquidity under a $1.5 billion revolving credit facility at June 30, 2015.

Deposits grew to $17.3 billion from $16.8 billion at March 31, 2015, and $13.9 billion at June 30, 2014, as we surpassed $10 billion of online deposits during the quarter. At June 30, 2015, deposits represented approximately 51% of CIT’s funding, with unsecured and secured borrowings comprising 32% and 17% of the funding mix, respectively, reflecting the ongoing shift from unsecured borrowings to deposit funding. The weighted average coupon rate on outstanding deposits and long-term borrowings in continuing operations was 3.04% at June 30, 2015, unchanged from March 31, 2015 and down from 3.20% at June 30, 2014.

During the quarter, we returned over $87 million in capital to our shareholders including $26 million in dividends and $61 million from repurchases of 1.3 million common shares at an average price of $45.87 per share.

In July 2015, the Board approved a $0.15 cash dividend payable on August 28, 2015 to common shareholders of record as of August 14, 2015 and we repurchased an additional 0.7 million shares under a 10b 5-1 repurchase plan for an aggregate purchase price of $30 million. Approximately $109 million of the authorized repurchase capacity remained at July 24, 2015.

 

Segment Highlights

Transportation & International Finance

Pre-tax earnings were $157 million, up from $148 million in the year-ago quarter and unchanged from the prior quarter. The increase from the year-ago quarter primarily reflected higher gains on asset sales and a lower provision for credit losses. The second quarter results reflects lower provision for credit losses and operating expenses offset by reduced gains on asset sales, as compared to the prior quarter.

Financing and leasing assets at June 30, 2015 were $19.3 billion, up from $18.8 billion at March 31, 2015 and $18.4 billion at June 30, 2014. The annual increase reflects growth in all transportation divisions, partially offset by a reduction in International Finance. Assets held for sale totaled $0.7 billion and largely

consists of the U.K. equipment finance portfolio and certain commercial aircraft. New business volume for the quarter was $0.8 billion and consisted of $0.4 billion of operating lease equipment, including the delivery of three new aircraft and approximately 1,900 new railcars, and the funding of $0.4 billion of finance receivables, the majority of which was in Maritime Finance.

Net finance revenue was $218 million, compared to $222 million in the year-ago quarter and $215 million in the prior quarter, reflecting asset growth offset by yield compression. Net finance margin was 4.57%, down from 4.91% in the year-ago quarter, as lower yields in Aerospace reflecting lower utilization and lease re-pricings, were partially offset by slightly higher yields in Rail. NFM was unchanged from the prior quarter as lower funding costs offset yield compression. Gross yields in Aerospace decreased to 11.2% from 11.4% in the prior quarter, while gross yields in Rail of 14.8% were unchanged sequentially.

Other income was $17 million, up from $10 million in the year-ago quarter and down from $34 million in the prior quarter, driven by variation in gains on asset sales, predominantly in commercial aircraft.

Non-accrual loans of $58 million (1.55% of finance receivables) increased from $39 million (1.10%) at March 31, 2015 and from $41 million (1.26%) a year ago, primarily in International Finance. There was a slight net benefit in provision for credit losses compared to provisions of $8 million in the year-ago quarter and $11 million in the prior quarter, with the current quarter provision reflecting recoveries in China and minimal losses elsewhere. Net charge-offs reflected a $3 million net recovery this quarter (0.29% of finance receivables) compared to net charge-offs of $13 million (1.48%) in the year-ago quarter and $2 million (0.17%) in the prior quarter. Net charge-offs in the year-ago quarter include $9 million related to assets transferred to held for sale.

Operating expenses were $78 million, up from $76 million a year ago and down from $82 million in the prior quarter reflecting lower employee costs.

Utilization was essentially unchanged from the prior quarter in air and rail, with over 97% of aircraft and 98% of rail equipment leased or under a commitment at quarter-end. During the quarter, we ordered approximately 1,400 freight rail cars delivering through 2017. All of our aircraft scheduled for delivery in the next 12 months and approximately 60% of the total railcar order-book have lease commitments.

North American Commercial Finance

Pre-tax earnings were $47 million, compared to $93 million in the year-ago quarter and $36 million in the prior quarter. The decrease from the year-ago quarter reflects higher credit costs and operating expenses, lower interest recoveries, and the impact of portfolio re-pricing. The increase from the prior quarter reflects lower credit costs, higher capital market fees, and higher net finance revenue.

Financing and leasing assets were $16.3 billion, up slightly from March 31, 2015, and up $650 million (4%) from June 30, 2014. The increase from the year-ago quarter primarily reflects the acquisition of Direct Capital and growth in Real Estate Finance. New lending and leasing volume was $1.6 billion, slightly higher

 
6

than the year-ago quarter and up from $1.4 billion in the prior quarter. Factored volume declined 7% and 10% from year-ago and prior quarter levels, respectively.

Net finance revenue of $133 million decreased from $146 million in the year-ago quarter reflecting lower levels of loan prepayments and interest recoveries. Net finance revenue increased from $128 million in the prior quarter due to both slightly higher average earning assets and yields, notably in Equipment Finance. Net finance margin was 3.60% compared to 4.13% in the year-ago quarter and 3.52% in the prior quarter. The changes in net finance margin from the comparable periods reflect the items affecting the net finance revenues cited above. Other income of $69 million was essentially unchanged from the year-ago quarter and up from $66 million in the prior quarter, reflecting higher capital markets fees and higher gains partially offset by lower factoring commissions. Operating expenses were $135 million, up from $120 million in the year-ago quarter, primarily reflecting the acquisition of Direct Capital, and were unchanged from the prior quarter.

Non-accrual loans of $111 million (0.70% of finance receivables) declined from $116 million (0.73%) at March 31, 2015, and from $132 million (0.86%) a year ago. Provision for credit losses of $19 million was up from $3 million in the year-ago quarter and down from $24 million in the prior quarter. The current quarter includes a charge-off on one energy-related account partially offset by a decrease in non-specific reserves. Net charge-offs were $26 million (0.66% of average finance receivables), compared to $9 million (0.23%) in the year-ago quarter and $19 million (0.49%) in the prior quarter. Net charge-offs include $1 million related to assets moved to held for sale in the current quarter compared to $3 million in the year-ago quarter and $11 million in the prior quarter.

Non-Strategic Portfolios

Pre-tax losses were $10 million, unchanged from the year-ago quarter and improved from $13 million in the prior quarter. The sequential trend reflected higher gains on sale of equipment partially offset by higher impairment charges on held-for-sale portfolios.

Financing and leasing assets were unchanged at $0.3 billion at June 30, 2015, compared to March 31, 2015, and were down from $0.7 billion a year-ago, which reflects sales of international portfolios and portfolio run-off.

In the fourth quarter of 2014, we signed separate definitive agreements to sell equipment leasing platforms in Mexico (approximately $0.2 billion in assets at June 30, 2015), and Brazil (approximately $0.1 billion in assets at June 30, 2015). We received regulatory approval for the sale of Mexico, and expect to close the transaction in the 2015 third quarter. Brazil is expected to close in the second half of 2015, subject to regulatory approval.

Corporate and Other

Certain items are not allocated to operating segments and are included in Corporate and Other, including interest expense, primarily related to corporate liquidity costs, mark-to-market on certain derivatives, restructuring charges, certain legal costs and other operating expenses. Other income included a $6 million negative mark-to-market on the TRS derivative and the previously mentioned $9 million tax-related charge.

 

CIT Bank

Total assets were $21.9 billion at June 30, 2015, up from $21.5 billion at March 31, 2015, reflecting new business volumes, and $18.3 billion at June 30, 2014 reflecting, in part, the acquisition of Direct Capital. CIT Bank funded $2 billion of new business volume in the current quarter. Loans totaled $15.7 billion, up from $15.1 billion at March 31, 2015 and $13.4 billion at June 30, 2014. Operating lease equipment was $2.2 billion, primarily railcars and some aircraft, up from $2.0 billion in the prior quarter and $1.8 billion at June 30, 2014. Cash and debt securities available for sale totaled $3.5 billion at June 30, 2015 was comprised of $3.0 billion of cash and approximately $0.5 billion of debt securities, down from $3.8 billion at March 31, 2015, and up from $2.8 billion at June 30, 2014.

Preliminary estimated Common Equity Tier 1 and Total Capital ratios were 12.5% and 13.8% at June 30, 2015, and 12.9% and 14.1% at March 31, 2015, respectively, as calculated under the fully phased-in Regulatory Capital Rules. Tier 1 and Total Capital ratios, which were reported under the previously effective capital rules, were 15.2% and 16.5% at June 30, 2014. The change from a year-ago quarter primarily reflects an increase in risk weighted assets. The impact of the changes in regulatory capital rules at January 1, 2015 was minimal.

Deposits at June 30, 2015 were $17.3 billion, up from $16.8 billion at March 31, 2015 and $13.9 billion at June 30, 2014, and we surpassed $10 billion of online deposits. The weighted average rate on outstanding deposits was 1.69%, compared to 1.66% at March 31, 2015 and 1.57% at June 30, 2014.
