Capital One Reports Second Quarter Earnings per Share Increase Of 34% Over Year Ago Period

MCLEAN, Va., Jul 16, 2003 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- Capital One Financial Corporation (NYSE: COF) today announced that its second quarter of 2003 earnings per share increased by 34 percent over the same period in the prior year. This increase in earnings was driven primarily by the improved profitability of its auto and international businesses.

Earnings for the second quarter of 2003 were $286.8 million, or $1.23 per share (fully diluted) compared with earnings of $213.1 million, or $0.92 per share, for the second quarter of 2002. Earnings in the first quarter of 2003 were $309.1 million, or $1.35 per share.

The managed charge-off rate declined to 6.32 percent in the second quarter of 2003, from 6.47 percent in the previous quarter. The managed delinquency rate declined to 4.95 percent from 4.97 percent at the end of the previous quarter.

"We continue to expect that we will report earnings per share of at least $4.55 for 2003, as we increase our marketing and Allowance for Loan Losses to support the more robust portfolio growth we expect in the second half," said Richard D. Fairbank, Capital One's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "We are pleased that charge-offs declined in the quarter, as predicted, to 6.32 percent and we expect additional improvement in the second half of the year."

The company continues to shift its portfolio mix to higher quality loans. As a consequence, Capital One's managed revenue margin declined to 14.85 percent in the second quarter of 2003 from 15.70 percent in the previous quarter. The managed risk-adjusted margin declined to 9.23 percent from 9.77 percent in the previous quarter. The company expects that the revenue margin will drift lower as it continues to shift its mix to higher quality loans.

Capital One's managed loan balance increased by $1.5 billion to $60.7 billion at the end of the second quarter. Also, during the second quarter, as part of its ongoing program of auto-loan sales, the company sold $1.3 billion in auto loans, recording a gain of $35.0 million. The company expects to continue to sell auto loans in the second half of the year, yet hold a higher proportion of auto loan growth on its balance sheet. The company's accounts declined by 638 thousand to 45.8 million at the end of the second quarter.

"We continue to expect managed loan growth of 15 to 20 percent in 2003," said David R. Lawson, Capital One's Chief Financial Officer. "Our diversified efforts in auto finance and international will be an increasing contributor to the earnings growth of Capital One this year."

Marketing expenses for the second quarter of 2003 increased $28.9 million to $270.6 million from $241.7 million in the first quarter. Marketing expenses were $320.4 million in the comparable period of the prior year. Other non-interest expenses (excluding marketing) for the second quarter of 2003 were $880.0 million versus $931.2 million for the first quarter and $833.2 million in the comparable period of the prior year. Annualized operating cost per account decreased to $76.35 for the second quarter of 2003 from $79.43 in the prior quarter.

The company generates earnings from its managed loan portfolio which includes both on-balance sheet loans and off-balance sheet loans. For this reason the company believes the managed financial measures to be useful to stakeholders. In compliance with Regulation G of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the company is providing a numerical reconciliation of managed financial measures to comparable measures calculated on a reported basis using generally accepted accounting principles. Please see the schedule entitled "Reconciliation to GAAP Financial Measures" attached to this release for more information.

The company cautioned that its current expectations for 2003 earnings, charge-off rates, margins, marketing expense, Allowance for Loan Losses, and future loan growth are forward-looking statements and actual results could differ materially from current expectations due to a number of factors, including: competition in the credit card industry; the actual account and balance growth achieved by the company; the company's ability to access the capital markets at attractive rates and terms to fund its operations and future growth; and general economic conditions affecting consumer income and spending, which may affect consumer bankruptcies, defaults and charge-offs.

A discussion of these and other factors can be found in Capital One's annual and other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including, but not limited to, Capital One's report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2003.

                  Reconciliation to GAAP Financial Measures
                   For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2003
                      (dollars in thousands)(unaudited)

The Company's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") are referred to as its "reported" financial statements. Loans included in securitization transactions which qualified as sales under GAAP have been removed from the Company's "reported" balance sheet. However, interest income, interchange, fees and recoveries generated from the securitized loan portfolio net of charge-offs in excess of the interest paid to investors of asset-backed securitizations are recognized as non-interest income on the "reported" income statement.

The Company's "managed" consolidated financial statements add back the effects of securitization transactions qualifying as sales under GAAP. The Company generates earnings from its "managed" loan portfolio which includes both the on-balance sheet loans and off-balance sheet loans. The Company's "managed" income statement takes the components of the non-interest income generated from the securitized portfolio and distributes the revenue to appropriate income statement line items from which it originated. For this reason the Company believes the "managed" consolidated financial statements and related managed metrics to be useful to stakeholders.
