CHICAGO, APRIL 25, 2023 — Northern Trust Corporation today reported first quarter net income per diluted common share of $1.51, compared to $0.71 in the fourth quarter of 2022 and $1.77 in the first quarter of 2022.

MICHAEL O’GRADY, CHAIRMAN AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER:
“The recent disruptions in the banking sector reinforce the importance of Northern Trust’s 130 year track record of strength and stability. New and existing clients have consistently turned to us for their liquidity needs during periods of market stress, and the first quarter of 2023 was no exception.”

“Our results for the quarter reflect year-over-year revenue growth of 2% and a return on common equity of 12.4%. Expense growth moderated compared to the previous quarter as we balanced spending discipline against investments to drive future growth. As we look ahead, we remain well-positioned to support our clients’ needs while successfully navigating the ever-shifting macroeconomic environment.”

Q1 2022
The provision in the prior-year quarter was primarily due to an increase in the reserve evaluated on an individual basis for two commercial borrowers, partially offset by a slight decrease in the reserve evaluated on a collective basis. The decrease in the collective basis reserve was primarily due to continued improvements in credit quality mainly within the commercial real estate portfolio, partially offset by increases in the reserve driven by projected economic conditions at the time.

RECONCILIATION TO FULLY TAXABLE EQUIVALENT
The following table presents a reconciliation of interest income, net interest income, net interest margin, and total revenue prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles to such measures on an FTE basis, which are non-generally accepted accounting financial measures. Net interest margin is calculated by dividing annualized net interest income by average interest-earning assets. Management believes this presentation provides a clearer indication of these financial measures for comparative purposes. When adjusted to an FTE basis, yields on taxable, nontaxable and partially taxable assets are comparable; however, the adjustment to an FTE basis has no impact on net income.

The following table presents a reconciliation of interest income, net interest income, net interest margin and total revenue prepared in accordance with GAAP to such measures on a fully taxable equivalent (FTE) basis, which are non-GAAP financial measures. Management believes this presentation provides a clearer indication of these financial measures for comparative purposes. The adjustment to an FTE basis has no impact on net income.

INTEREST RATE TRENDS (FTE(1) Basis)
PERIOD AVERAGES
Net Interest Income (FTE Adjusted), a non-GAAP financial measure, includes adjustments to a fully taxable equivalent basis for loans and securities. A reconciliation of net interest income, net interest margin, and net interest spread on a GAAP basis to net interest income, net interest margin, and net interest spread on an FTE basis, respectively, (each of which is a non-GAAP financial measure) is provided on pages 11 and 12. Net interest margin is calculated by dividing annualized net interest income by average interest-earning assets. Net interest spread is calculated as the difference between the interest rate earned (annualized interest income divided by average interest-earning assets) and the interest rate incurred (annualized interest expense divided by average interest-related funds).

RECONCILIATION TO FULLY TAXABLE EQUIVALENT
($ in Millions)
Northern Trust presents certain financial measures on a fully taxable equivalent (FTE) basis, which is a non-generally accepted accounting principle (GAAP). Management believes an FTE presentation provides a clearer indication of these financial measures for comparative purposes.

Net interest income (FTE) – Non-GAAP and net interest margin (FTE) – Non-GAAP and other FTE measures include the tax equivalent adjustments on tax-exempt income, consistent with industry practice. The adjustments are based on the federal income tax rate, where the rate is adjusted for applicable state income taxes, net of related federal tax benefit. When adjusted to an FTE basis, yields on taxable, nontaxable, and partially taxable assets are comparable; however, the adjustment to an FTE basis has no impact on net income. Below is a reconciliation of the financial measures presented on an FTE basis.
