BB&T reports second quarter results
Adjusted diluted EPS totals $0.69 per share
WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. -- BB&T Corporation (NYSE: BBT) today reported quarterly earnings for the second quarter of 2015. Net income available to common shareholders was $454 million, compared to $424 million earned in the second quarter of 2014, an increase of 7.1%. Earnings per diluted common share totaled $0.62 for the quarter, compared to $0.58 for the second quarter of last year, an increase of 6.9%. Net income available to common shareholders was affected by $25 million in pre-tax merger-related charges ($16 million after-tax), or $0.02 per diluted share, and a $34 million after-tax loss on the sale of American Coastal, or $0.05 per diluted share.
“We are pleased to report solid results for the quarter, led by improved loan growth and strong credit quality,” said Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Kelly S. King. “We completed several strategic transactions during the second quarter and reached an important milestone with the recent approval of the Susquehanna merger.
“Revenues were $2.4 billion, up $31 million, or 1.3% compared with the second quarter of 2014. These results were driven by continued strength in our fee-based businesses.
“We successfully completed our acquisition of The Bank of Kentucky,” said King. “This strategic transaction added $1.6 billion in deposits and boosted us to the No. 2 marketplace ranking in Kentucky, and we look forward to expanding on this solid base with our diverse product offerings and strong customer focus.
| - 1 - |
“We were very pleased to receive regulatory approval to acquire Susquehanna Bancshares, which we expect to close on August 1. This transaction is very important strategically and will drive improved growth and efficiency in coming quarters.
“We reported an income tax benefit of $107 million as a result of a decision by the U.S. Court of Appeals related to previously disallowed deductions in connection with a financing transaction. We also extinguished nearly $1 billion of higher cost FHLB borrowings resulting in a $172 million pre-tax loss, or $107 million after-tax. The debt extinguishment will modestly benefit our net interest margin going forward.
“We also completed the sale of American Coastal and the related purchase of additional ownership in AmRisc,” said King. “The sale resulted in an after-tax loss of $34 million due to the allocation of goodwill upon disposal. These transactions eliminate our exposure to future underwriting losses and significantly increase our share of a historically strong fee-based business.”

Second Quarter 2015 compared to First Quarter 2015
Consolidated net income available to common shareholders for the second quarter of 2015 was $454 million, a decrease of $34 million compared to the first quarter of 2015. On a diluted per common share basis, earnings for the second quarter were $0.62, compared to $0.67 earned in the prior quarter. BB&T’s results of operations for the second quarter produced an annualized return on average assets of 1.06%, an annualized return on average risk-weighted assets of 1.32% and an annualized return on average common shareholders’ equity of 8.20%, compared to prior quarter ratios of 1.18%, 1.48% and 9.05%, respectively. BB&T’s return on average tangible common shareholders’ equity was 12.76% for the second quarter of 2015, compared to 14.00% for the prior quarter.
During May 2015, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit rendered its decision on BB&T’s appeal of a prior ruling that disallowed foreign tax credits and other deductions claimed by a subsidiary in connection with a financing transaction. As a result of this decision, a portion of the earlier ruling was overturned and BB&T recognized net tax benefits of $107 million during the second quarter of 2015. Other aspects of the earlier ruling, which were adverse to BB&T, were affirmed by the Court of Appeals.
Results for the second quarter of 2015 included a loss on early extinguishment of higher cost FHLB advances of $172 million, or $107 million after-tax. The terminated advances totaled approximately $931 million and had a weighted average interest rate of 4.84% and a weighted average remaining life of approximately 6.6 years.
| - 4 - |
Effective May 31, 2015, BB&T completed the sale of American Coastal, which resulted in a pre-tax loss on sale of $26 million primarily due to the allocation of $49 million of goodwill. As a result of the goodwill being non-deductible for income tax purposes, the sale generated income tax expense of $8 million, resulting in a net after-tax loss of $34 million, or $0.05 per share.
Total revenues were $2.4 billion for the second quarter of 2015, an increase of $23 million compared to the prior quarter, which reflects an increase in noninterest income of $22 million and an increase in taxable-equivalent net interest income of $1 million.
The change in taxable-equivalent net interest income includes a $3 million decrease in interest income, driven by lower yields on new loans, and a $4 million decrease in interest expense. The net interest margin was 3.27% for the second quarter, a decrease of six basis points compared to the prior quarter. Average earning assets increased $2.1 billion, or 5.1% annualized, while average interest-bearing liabilities were down slightly to $116.1 billion. The annualized yield on the total loan portfolio for the second quarter was 4.18%, a five basis point decrease compared to the prior quarter, which primarily reflects lower yields on new loans and the continued runoff of higher yielding loans acquired from the FDIC. The annualized fully taxable-equivalent yield on the average securities portfolio for the second quarter was 2.41%, down six basis points compared to the prior quarter.
The average annualized cost of interest-bearing deposits was 0.24%, down one basis point compared to the prior quarter. The average annualized rate paid on long-term debt was 2.14%, a decrease of four basis points compared to the prior quarter, which primarily reflects the impact of the previously described extinguishment of FHLB advances.
The $22 million increase in noninterest income was primarily driven by higher mortgage banking income, FDIC loss share income and investment banking and brokerage fees and commissions, which increased $20 million, $15 million and $14 million, respectively. These increases were partially offset by a $25 million decline in other income primarily due to the $26 million pre-tax loss on the sale of American Coastal and $18 million in lower insurance income.
Excluding loans acquired from the FDIC, the provision for credit losses was $97 million and net charge-offs were $98 million for the second quarter, compared to $105 million and $100 million, respectively, for the prior quarter.
Noninterest expense was $1.7 billion for the second quarter, up $231 million compared to the prior quarter. This increase was driven by the previously discussed $172 million loss on early extinguishment of debt and a $34 million increase in personnel expense. The increase in personnel expense was primarily due to increased production-related incentives due to volume, annual raises, seasonal increases in fringe benefits and approximately 500 additional full-time equivalent employees, which largely resulted from the acquisitions.
The provision for income taxes was $80 million for the second quarter, compared to $241 million for the prior quarter. This produced an effective tax rate for the second quarter of 13.8%, compared to 30.6% for the prior quarter. The decrease is primarily attributable to the previously discussed $107 million tax benefit.

Second Quarter 2015 compared to Second Quarter 2014
Consolidated net income available to common shareholders for the second quarter of 2015 was $454 million, an increase of $30 million compared to the same quarter of 2014. On a diluted per common share basis, earnings for the second quarter of 2015 were $0.62, compared to $0.58 for the earlier quarter. BB&T’s results of operations for the second quarter of 2015 produced an annualized return on average assets of 1.06%, an annualized return on average risk-weighted assets of 1.32% and an annualized return on average common shareholders’ equity of 8.20%, compared to earlier quarter ratios of 1.04%, 1.38% and 8.04%, respectively. BB&T’s return on average tangible common shareholders’ equity was 12.76% for the second quarter of 2015, compared to 12.77% for the earlier quarter.
While the second quarter of 2015 included the tax benefit, loss on extinguishment of debt and loss on sale of American Coastal that, in the aggregate, totaled $34 million after-tax, or $0.05 per diluted share, the earlier quarter’s results were negatively impacted by after-tax adjustments totaling $88 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, that were recorded in connection with the identification of potential exposures related to residential mortgage loans originated by BB&T and insured by the Federal Housing Administration (“FHA”) and an adjustment to a previously recorded income tax reserve.
Total revenues were $2.4 billion for the second quarter of 2015, up $31 million compared to the earlier quarter as a $61 million increase in noninterest income was partially offset by a $30 million decrease in taxable-equivalent net interest income.
The change in taxable-equivalent net interest income includes a $47 million decrease in interest income, driven by lower yields on new loans and the continued run-off of loans acquired from the FDIC, and a $17 million decrease in interest expense. Net interest margin was 3.27%, compared to 3.43% for the earlier quarter. Average earning assets increased $4.3 billion, or 2.7%, while average interest-bearing liabilities decreased $2.1 billion, or 1.8%. The annualized yield on the total loan portfolio for the second quarter was 4.18%, a decrease of 27 basis points compared to the earlier quarter, which primarily reflects lower yields on new loans and continued runoff of higher yielding loans acquired from the FDIC. The annualized fully taxable-equivalent yield on the average securities portfolio for the second quarter was 2.41%, two basis points lower than the earlier period.
The average annualized cost of interest-bearing deposits was 0.24%, a decline of two basis points compared to the earlier quarter. The average annualized rate paid on long-term debt was 2.14%, a decrease of 24 basis points compared to the earlier quarter. This decrease was the result of lower rates on new issues during the last twelve months and early extinguishments of higher cost FHLB advances.
| - 6 - |
The $61 million increase in noninterest income was primarily driven by higher mortgage banking income, FDIC loss share income and investment banking and brokerage fees and commissions, which increased $44 million, $24 million and $16 million, respectively. These increases were partially offset by a $34 million decline in other income primarily due to the $26 million pre-tax loss on the sale of American Coastal.
Excluding loans acquired from the FDIC, the provision for credit losses was $97 million, compared to $83 million in the earlier quarter, primarily due to a reserve release in the earlier quarter. Net charge-offs for the second quarter of 2015, excluding loans acquired from the FDIC, totaled $98 million, down $19 million compared to the earlier quarter.
Noninterest expense was $1.7 billion for the second quarter of 2015, an increase of $119 million compared to the earlier quarter. This increase was driven by the $172 million loss on early extinguishment of debt and a $55 million increase in personnel expense, partially offset by a $77 million decrease in other expense and a $43 million decrease in loan-related expense that was primarily due to a charge related to FHA-insured mortgage loans in the earlier quarter.
The provision for income taxes was $80 million for the second quarter of 2015, compared to $216 million for the earlier quarter. This produced an effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2015 of 13.8%, compared to 31.2% for the earlier quarter. The current quarter included the tax benefit of $107 million discussed above and the earlier quarter included a $14 million tax provision related to the IRS’s change in stance related to an income tax position that was under examination.

Second Quarter 2015 compared to First Quarter 2015
Noninterest income was $1.0 billion for the second quarter, up $22 million compared to the prior quarter. This increase was driven by higher mortgage banking income, FDIC loss share income and investment banking and brokerage fees and commissions, partially offset by lower other income and insurance income. Mortgage banking income was $20 million higher than the prior quarter, primarily reflecting higher net mortgage servicing rights income and higher commercial mortgage fee income due to increased volumes. FDIC loss share income was $15 million better primarily due to the loss share offsets on securities duration adjustments and lower negative accretion related to loans. Investment banking and brokerage fees and commissions were up $14 million, driven by increased capital markets activity. Other income was down $25 million primarily due to the sale of American Coastal, which generated a pre-tax loss of $26 million, and a $12 million reduction in income from private equity investments, which was partially offset by improvement in several other categories of other income. Insurance income declined $18 million with approximately $11 million of the reduction due to the sale of American Coastal.
Second Quarter 2015 compared to Second Quarter 2014
Noninterest income for the second quarter of 2015 increased $61 million, or 6.4%, compared to the earlier quarter. This increase was primarily driven by $44 million of higher mortgage banking income, which reflects higher net mortgage servicing rights income, higher gains on sales of loans and improvement in commercial mortgage fee income due to higher loan volume. In addition, FDIC loss share income was better $24 million primarily due to lower negative accretion related to loans, and investment banking and brokerage fees and commissions was $16 million higher primarily due to increased capital markets activity and investment commissions. Operating lease income increased $10 million primarily due to higher volumes. These increases were partially offset by a $34 million decrease in other income, which was primarily driven by the loss on sale of American Coastal.

Second Quarter 2015 compared to First Quarter 2015
Noninterest expense was $1.7 billion for the second quarter, up $231 million compared to the prior quarter. As previously discussed, the current quarter included a loss on early extinguishment of debt totaling $172 million.
Personnel expense was up $34 million, reflecting $22 million in higher incentives that were largely the result of increased production. In addition, salary expense increased $18 million, primarily due to annual raises effective on April 1 and approximately 500 more full-time equivalent employees, which was largely the result of acquisitions. Equity-based compensation was up $12 million due to accelerated expense recognition as a result of retirement eligibility provisions. These increases were partially offset by a $13 million improvement in payroll taxes as a result of a seasonally high first quarter due to annual limit resets.
Merger-related and restructuring charges were $12 million higher than the prior quarter primarily due to activity related to The Bank of Kentucky and Susquehanna Bancshares as well as the AmRisc/American Coastal transactions. Professional services increased $11 million due to higher legal fees and other project related professional services.
Second Quarter 2015 compared to Second Quarter 2014
Noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2015 was $119 million higher than the same period of 2014. The increase was primarily driven by the loss on early extinguishment of debt, higher personnel expense and higher merger-related and restructuring charges. The increase in personnel expense of $55 million reflects a $19 million increase in qualified pension plan expense that was driven by higher amortization of net actuarial losses and higher service cost. Personnel expense was also higher due to a $14 million increase in production-related incentives due to strong performance at fee income-generating businesses and a $12 million increase in employee health costs. The annual raises effective April 1 were largely offset by approximately 1,000 fewer full-time equivalent employees. Other expense and loan-related expense decreased $77 million and $43 million, respectively, primarily due to charges recognized in the earlier period related to FHA-insured loan originations.

Average loans held for investment for the second quarter of 2015 were $120.0 billion, up $1.2 billion compared to the first quarter of 2015. The increase in average loans held for investment was primarily due to an increase of $1.1 billion in commercial and industrial average loans, a $383 million increase in average other lending subsidiaries loans and a $258 million increase in average direct retail lending loans. These increases were partially offset by a $565 million decline in average residential mortgage loans and continued run-off of loans acquired from the FDIC. The acquisition of The Bank of Kentucky, which added $1.2 billion of loans, contributed approximately $146 million in average loans for the quarter.
Average commercial and industrial loans increased an annualized 10.6%, which reflects growth from large corporate clients and increased mortgage warehouse lending. Average other lending subsidiaries loans were up an annualized 13.6% primarily due to seasonal activity. Average direct retail lending loans were up an annualized 12.6% primarily due to an increase in home equity line balances.
The decrease of $565 million, or 7.4% annualized, in the residential mortgage portfolio reflects the continued strategy to sell all conforming residential mortgage loan production.

Average deposits for the second quarter were $131.9 billion, an increase of $2.3 billion or 7.2% annualized compared to the prior quarter. The change in average deposits reflects improved mix, with noninterest-bearing deposits up $1.8 billion, or 18.2% annualized, while interest-bearing balances were up $536 million, or 2.4% annualized. The first quarter acquisition of 41 branches in Texas had an estimated $387 million favorable impact on average noninterest-bearing deposits and a $1.3 billion impact on average interest-bearing deposits, while the second quarter acquisition of The Bank of Kentucky had an estimated $190 million favorable impact on average deposits.
Noninterest-bearing deposits represented 31.5% of total average deposits for the second quarter, compared to 30.6% for the prior quarter and 28.3% a year ago.
The growth in average noninterest-bearing deposits includes an increase in average commercial accounts totaling $1.6 billion and an increase in average consumer accounts totaling $503 million, partially offset by a decrease in average public funds accounts totaling $369 million.
Excluding the Texas branch acquisition and The Bank of Kentucky acquisition, average noninterest bearing deposits increased $1.4 billion, average money market and savings increased $1.4 billion and average time deposits declined $2.4 billion.
The cost of interest-bearing deposits was 0.24% for the second quarter, down one basis point compared to the prior quarter.

Second Quarter 2015 compared to First Quarter 2015
Community Banking
Community Banking serves individual and business clients by offering a variety of loan and deposit products and other financial services. The segment is primarily responsible for acquiring and maintaining client relationships.
| - 11 - |
Community Banking net income was $234 million for the second quarter of 2015, an increase of $24 million compared to the prior quarter. Segment net interest income increased $26 million, primarily driven by deposit growth coupled with higher funding spreads on deposits, partially offset by lower interest rates on new loans. Noninterest income increased $20 million, primarily due to higher service charges on deposits, bankcard and merchant services fees, and checkcard fees. Noninterest expense increased $14 million driven by higher salary, equity-based compensation and employee benefit expense. The increase in noninterest expense was partially attributable to the acquisitions during the current and prior quarters. Average loans grew $309 million, or 2.5% on an annualized basis, while average transaction account deposits grew $1.9 billion, or 13.8% on an annualized basis.
Residential Mortgage Banking
Residential Mortgage Banking retains and services mortgage loans originated by BB&T as well as those purchased from various correspondent originators. Mortgage loan products include fixed and adjustable-rate government guaranteed and conventional loans for the purpose of constructing, purchasing or refinancing residential properties. Substantially all of the properties are owner-occupied.
Residential Mortgage Banking net income was $72 million for the second quarter of 2015, an increase of $8 million compared to the prior quarter. Segment net interest income increased $7 million, primarily the result of higher average loans held for sale balances and higher credit spreads on new loans held for investment, partially offset by lower average loans held for investment balances. Noninterest income increased $17 million driven by an increase in net mortgage servicing rights income. The allocated provision for credit losses was $3 million in the second quarter of 2015, compared to a benefit of $12 million in the prior quarter, primarily due to stabilization in the improvement in loss severity trends.
Dealer Financial Services
Dealer Financial Services primarily originates loans to consumers for the purchase of automobiles. These loans are originated on an indirect basis through approved franchised and independent automobile dealers throughout BB&T’s market area through BB&T Dealer Finance, and on a national basis through Regional Acceptance Corporation. Dealer Financial Services also originates loans for the purchase of recreational and marine vehicles and, in conjunction with the Community Bank, provides financing and servicing to dealers for their inventories.
Dealer Financial Services net income was $49 million for the second quarter of 2015, an increase of $4 million compared to the prior quarter. Segment net interest income increased $3 million, primarily driven by growth in the Regional Acceptance loan portfolio. The allocated provision for credit losses decreased $13 million, primarily due to seasonally lower net charge-offs in the Regional Acceptance loan portfolio. Dealer Financial Services’ average loans increased by $62 million, or 1.8%, on an annualized basis.
| - 12 - |
Specialized Lending
Specialized Lending consists of businesses that provide specialty finance alternatives to commercial and consumer clients including: commercial finance, mortgage warehouse lending, tax-exempt financing for local governments and special-purpose districts, equipment leasing, full-service commercial mortgage banking, commercial and retail insurance premium finance, and dealer-based financing of equipment for consumers and small businesses.
Specialized Lending net income was $70 million for the second quarter of 2015, an increase of $13 million compared to the prior quarter. Segment net interest income increased $6 million driven by strong growth in mortgage warehouse loans, small ticket consumer loans and commercial mortgage loans, partially offset by lower interest rates on new loans. Noninterest income increased $10 million driven by higher commercial mortgage income, higher gains on finance leases and higher operating lease income. The allocated provision for credit losses decreased $12 million primarily due to higher prior period charge-offs and revisions to loss estimates in the commercial finance loan portfolio. Specialized Lending grew average loans by $1.1 billion, or 26.0% on an annualized basis.
Insurance Services
BB&T’s insurance agency / brokerage network is the fifth largest in the United States and sixth largest in the world. Insurance Services provides property and casualty, life and health insurance to business and individual clients. It also provides small business and corporate products, such as workers compensation and professional liability, as well as surety coverage and title insurance.
During the second quarter of 2015, BB&T completed its sale of American Coastal Insurance Company and increased its partnership interest in AmRisc, LP, a managing general underwriter for commercial property risks. The sale of American Coastal Insurance Company eliminates BB&T's exposure to potential underwriting losses in the future.
Insurance Services net income was $53 million in the second quarter of 2015, a decrease of $19 million compared to the prior quarter. Insurance Service’s noninterest income decreased $17 million, which primarily reflects a seasonal decrease in employee benefits insurance commissions and lower direct commercial property and casualty insurance premiums due to the sale of American Coastal, partially offset by a seasonal increase in commercial property and casualty insurance business and higher performance-based insurance commissions. Noninterest expense increased $8 million driven by higher salary and incentive expense and merger-related charges.
| - 13 - |
Financial Services
Financial Services provides personal trust administration, estate planning, investment counseling, wealth management, asset management, employee benefits services, corporate banking and corporate trust services to individuals, corporations, institutions, foundations and government entities. In addition, Financial Services offers clients investment alternatives, including discount brokerage services, equities, fixed-rate and variable-rate annuities, mutual funds and governmental and municipal bonds through BB&T Investment Services, Inc. The segment also includes BB&T Securities, a full-service brokerage and investment banking firm, the Corporate Banking Division, which originates and services large corporate relationships, syndicated lending relationships and client derivatives, and BB&T Capital Partners, which manages the company’s SBIC private equity investments.
Financial Services net income was $68 million in the second quarter of 2015, an increase of $2 million compared to the prior quarter. Segment net interest income increased $6 million driven by Corporate Banking loan and deposit growth and higher interest rates on new loans. Noninterest income increased $10 million primarily due to higher capital market activity. Noninterest expense increased $15 million compared to the prior quarter, driven by higher incentive expense and operating charge-offs.
Financial Services generated significant loan growth with Corporate Banking’s average loan balances increasing $465 million, or an annualized 17.2%, over the prior quarter, while BB&T Wealth’s average loan balances increased $100 million, or 29.8% on an annualized basis. Corporate Banking’s average deposits grew $755 million, or 37.5% on an annualized basis.
Other, Treasury & Corporate
Net income in Other, Treasury & Corporate can vary due to the changing needs of the Corporation, including the size of the investment portfolio, the need for wholesale funding and income received from derivatives used to hedge the balance sheet.
In the second quarter of 2015, Other, Treasury & Corporate generated a net loss of $45 million, compared to net income of $33 million in the prior quarter. Segment net interest income decreased $46 million driven by the continued run-off of loans acquired from the FDIC, duration adjustments on securities acquired from the FDIC, lower deposit funding spreads and lower credit spreads on other earning assets. Noninterest income decreased $18 million, primarily due to the loss on the previously discussed sale of American Coastal. The allocated provision for credit losses increased $11 million primarily due to a reserve release in the loan portfolio acquired from the FDIC in the prior quarter. Noninterest expense increased $179 million driven by the previously discussed $172 million loss on early extinguishment of FLHB advances in the current quarter.
| - 14 - |
Second Quarter 2015 compared to Second Quarter 2014
Community Banking
Community Banking net income was $234 million for the second quarter of 2015, an increase of $15 million compared to the earlier quarter. Segment net interest income increased $8 million, primarily driven by deposit growth and commercial real estate and direct retail loan growth, partially offset by lower funding spreads on deposits and lower interest rates on new commercial loans. Noninterest income decreased $10 million, primarily due to lower service charges on deposits, letter of credit fees and commercial loan fees. Intersegment referral fee income increased $10 million driven by higher loan referrals to the Residential Mortgage Banking segment. The allocated provision for credit losses decreased $24 million as the result of lower commercial and direct retail net charge-offs.
Residential Mortgage Banking
Residential Mortgage Banking net income was $72 million for the second quarter of 2015, compared to a net loss of $21 million in the earlier quarter. Segment net interest income decreased $9 million, primarily the result of lower average loan balances due to the current strategy of selling substantially all conforming mortgage loan production and lower interest rates on new loans. Noninterest income increased $33 million driven by an increase in net mortgage servicing rights income and an increase in gains on mortgage loan production and sales driven by higher mortgage loan originations and margins. The improvement in gain on sale margins was the result of improved pricing and a higher mix of retail saleable production. Noninterest expense decreased $130 million compared to the prior quarter, which primarily reflects the impact of prior year adjustments totaling $118 million relating to FHA-insured loan exposures.
Dealer Financial Services
Dealer Financial Services net income was $49 million for the second quarter of 2015, a decrease of $14 million compared to the earlier quarter. Segment net interest income increased $10 million, primarily driven by growth in the Regional Acceptance loan portfolio and the inclusion of dealer floor plan loans in the segment in the current quarter, partially offset by lower interest rates on new loans. The allocated provision for credit losses increased $17 million, primarily due to higher net charge-offs and higher expectations of loss severity related to the nonprime automobile loan portfolio. Noninterest expense increased $13 million driven by higher personnel, professional services and other expenses. Adjusted for the inclusion of dealer floor plan loans, Dealer Financial Services grew average loans by $850 million, or 6.6% compared to the earlier quarter.
| - 15 - |
Specialized Lending
Specialized Lending net income was $70 million for the second quarter of 2015, an increase of $10 million compared to the earlier quarter. Segment net interest income increased $2 million driven by strong growth in mortgage warehouse loans, small ticket consumer loans and commercial mortgage loans, partially offset by lower interest rates on new loans. Noninterest income increased $23 million driven by higher commercial mortgage and operating lease income. The allocated provision for credit losses decreased $6 million primarily due to an improvement in credit trends in the commercial finance loan portfolio. Noninterest expense increased $15 million, primarily due to higher personnel expense, depreciation of property under operating leases and loan processing expense. Specialized Lending grew average loans $1.8 billion or 11.5% compared to the earlier quarter, led by Mortgage Warehouse Lending with $725 million or 64.4% loan growth and Grandbridge with $284 million or 64.8% loan growth.
Insurance Services
Insurance Services net income was $53 million in the second quarter of 2015, a decrease of $4 million compared to the earlier quarter. Insurance Service’s noninterest income increased $1 million, which primarily reflects higher new and renewal commercial property and casualty insurance business and higher performance-based commissions, partially offset by lower direct commercial property and casualty insurance premiums due to the previously discussed sale of American Coastal. Noninterest expense increased $2 million driven by higher employee insurance and pension expense and merger-related charges, partially offset by lower incentives and operating charge-offs and a reduction in certain actuarially determined loss reserves.
Financial Services
Financial Services net income was $68 million in the second quarter of 2015, an increase of $1 million compared to the earlier quarter. Segment net interest income increased $18 million driven by Corporate Banking and BB&T Wealth loan and deposit growth, partially offset by lower interest rates on new loans and lower funding spreads on deposits. Noninterest income increased $20 million due to higher capital market fees, investment commissions and brokerage fees and commercial loan fees. The allocated provision for credit losses increased $20 million as the result of portfolio mix and risk expectations related to the oil and energy sector. Noninterest expense increased $15 million compared to the earlier quarter, primarily driven by higher incentive and employee benefit expense.
| - 16 - |
Other, Treasury & Corporate
In the second quarter of 2015, Other, Treasury & Corporate generated a net loss of $45 million, compared to net income of $32 million in the earlier quarter. Segment net interest income decreased $58 million driven by lower acquired from FDIC loan balances and credit spreads, duration adjustments on securities acquired from the FDIC, and lower funding spreads on interest-bearing deposits. Noninterest income decreased $6 million, primarily due to the loss on the previously mentioned sale of American Coastal, partially offset by better FDIC loss share income. The allocated provision for credit losses was $5 million in the second quarter of 2015, compared to a benefit of $7 million in the earlier quarter, which primarily reflects changes in provision expense related to loans acquired from the FDIC and a provision benefit in the commercial finance loan portfolio shared by other segments. Noninterest expense increased $203 million, primarily due to the previously mentioned $172 million loss on early extinguishment of FLHB advances in the current quarter and higher personnel expense and merger-related charges. Intersegment referral fee expenses decreased $12 million driven by higher loan referrals to the Residential Mortgage Banking segment shared by other segments. Allocated corporate expense decreased by $19 million compared to the earlier quarter.

Loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing totaled $361 million at June 30, 2015, a decrease of $31 million compared to the prior quarter. This decline is primarily attributable to a $30 million decrease in delinquent loans acquired from the FDIC as those balances continue to run-off.

This news release contains financial information and performance measures determined by methods other than in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). BB&T’s management uses these “non-GAAP” measures in their analysis of the Corporation’s performance and the efficiency of its operations. Management believes that these non-GAAP measures provide a greater understanding of ongoing operations and enhance comparability of results with prior periods as well as demonstrating the effects of significant gains and charges in the current period. The company believes that a meaningful analysis of its financial performance requires an understanding of the factors underlying that performance. BB&T’s management believes that investors may use these non-GAAP financial measures to analyze financial performance without the impact of unusual items that may obscure trends in the company’s underlying performance. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. Below is a listing of the types of non-GAAP measures used in this news release:
| · | Tangible common equity and related ratios are non-GAAP measures. The return on average risk-weighted assets is a non-GAAP measure. BB&T's management uses these measures to assess the quality of capital and believes that investors may find them useful in their analysis of the Corporation. |
| · | The ratio of loans greater than 90 days and still accruing interest as a percentage of loans held for investment has been adjusted to remove the impact of loans that are or were covered by FDIC loss sharing agreements. Management believes that their inclusion may result in distortion of these ratios such that they might not be comparable to other periods presented or to other portfolios that were not impacted by purchase accounting. |
| · | Fee income and efficiency ratios are non-GAAP in that they exclude securities gains (losses), foreclosed property expense, amortization of intangible assets, merger-related and restructuring charges, the impact of FDIC loss share accounting and other selected items. BB&T’s management uses these measures in their analysis of the Corporation’s performance. BB&T’s management believes these measures provide a greater understanding of ongoing operations and enhance comparability of results with prior periods, as well as demonstrating the effects of significant gains and charges. |
| · | Return on average tangible common shareholders’ equity is a non-GAAP measure that calculates the return on average common shareholders’ equity without the impact of intangible assets and their related amortization. This measure is useful for evaluating the performance of a business consistently, whether acquired or developed internally. |
| · | Core net interest margin is a non-GAAP measure that adjusts net interest margin to exclude the impact of interest income and funding costs associated with loans and securities acquired in the Colonial acquisition. BB&T’s management believes that the exclusion of the generally higher yielding assets acquired in the Colonial acquisition from the calculation of net interest margin provides investors with useful information related to the relative performance of the remainder of BB&T’s earning assets. |
A reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure is included in BB&T’s Second Quarter 2015 Quarterly Performance Summary, which is available on BB&T’s website at www.bbt.com.

Such statements are subject to factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from anticipated results. Such factors include, but are not limited to, the following: general economic or business conditions, either nationally or regionally, may be less favorable than expected, resulting in, amo ng other things, a deterioration in credit quality and/or a reduced demand for credit, insurance or other services; disruptions to the credit and financial markets, either nationally or globally, including the impact of a downgrade of U.S. g ove rnment obligations by one of the credit ratings agencies and the adverse effects of recessionary conditions in Europe; changes in the interest rate environment and cash flow reassessments may reduce NIM and/or the volumes and values of loans ma de or held as well as the value of other financial assets held; competitive pressures among depository and other financial institutions may increase significantly; legislative, regulatory or accounting changes, including changes resulting from the adoption and implementation of the Dodd - Fran k Act may adversely affect the businesses in which BB&T is engaged; local, state or federal taxing authorities may take tax positions that are adverse to BB&T; a reduction may occur in BB&T’s credit ratings; adverse changes may occur in the securities markets; competitors of BB&T may have greater financial resources and develop products that enable them to compete more successfully t han BB&T and may be subject to different regulatory standards than BB&T; natural or other disasters could have an adverse effect on BB&T in that such events could materially disrupt BB&T’s operation s o r the ability or willingness of BB&T’s customers to access the financial services BB&T offers; costs or difficulties related to the integration of the businesses of BB&T and its merger partners may be greater than expect ed; expected cost savings or revenue growth associated with completed mergers and acquisitions may not be fully realized or reali zed within the expected time frames; significant litigation could have a material adverse effect on BB&T; deposit attrition, customer loss and/or revenue loss following completed mergers and acquisitions may be greater than expecte d ; cyber - security risks, including “denial of service,” “hacking” and “identity theft,” could adversely affect our business and fin ancial performance, or our reputation; and, failure to implement part or all of the Company’s new ERP system could result in impairment charges that adversely impact BB& T’s financial condition and results of operations and could result in significant additional costs to BB&T f ailure to execute on the Company’s strategic or operational plans, including the ability to successfully complete and/or inte gra te mergers and acquisitions, could adversely impact BB&T’s financial condition and results of operations. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward - looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this r eport. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed in or implied by any forward - looking statement. Except to the extent required by applicable law or regulation, BB&T undertakes no obligation to revise or update publicly any forwar d - l ooking statements for any reason. Non - GAAP Information This presentation contains financial information and performance measures determined by methods other than in accordance with ac counting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). BB&T’s management uses these “non - GAAP” measures in their analysis of the Corporation’s performance and the efficiency of its operations. Management believes that these non - GAAP measures provide a greater understanding of ongoing operations and enhance comparability of results with prior periods as well as demonstrating the effects of significant gains and charges in the current period. The c omp any believes that a meaningful analysis of its financial performance requires an understanding of the factors underlying that performance. BB&T’s management believes that investors may use these non - GAAP financial measures to analyze financial performanc e without the impact of unusual items that may obscure trends in the company’s underlying performance. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they nece ssa rily comparable to non - GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. Below is a listing of the types of non - GAAP measures used in this presentation: Tangible common equity and related ratios are non - GAAP measures. The return on average risk - weighted assets is a non - GAAP measure . BB&T's management uses these measures to assess the quality of capital and believes that investors may find them useful in their analysis of the Corporation . The ratio of loans greater than 90 days and still accruing interest as a percentage of loans held for investment has been adj ust ed to remove the impact of loans that are or were covered by FDIC loss sharing agreements. Management believes that their inclusion may result in distortion of these ratios such that they might not be comparable to o the r periods presented or to other portfolios that were not impacted by purchase accounting. Fee income and efficiency ratios are non - GAAP in that they exclude securities gains (losses), foreclosed property expense, amortizat ion of intangible assets, merger - related and restructuring charges, the impact of FDIC loss share accounting and other selected items. BB&T’s management uses these measures in their analysis of the Corporation’s perfo rma nce. BB&T’s management believes these measures provide a greater understanding of ongoing operations and enhance comparability of results with prior periods, as well as demonstrating the effects of significa nt gains and charges. Return on average tangible common shareholders’ equity is a non - GAAP measure that calculates the return on average common shareholders’ equity without the impact of intangible assets and their related amortization . This measure is useful for evaluating the performance of a business consistently, whether acquired or developed internally. Core net interest margin is a non - GAAP measure that adjusts net interest margin to exclude the impact of interest income and fun ding costs associated with loans and securities acquired in the Colonial acquisition. BB&T’s management believes that the exclusion of the generally higher yielding assets acquired in the Colonial acquisition from the cal culation of net interest margin provides investors with useful information related to the relative performance of the remainder of BB&T’s earning assets . The adjusted ratio of net charge - offs to average loans is a non - GAAP measure that adjusts net charge - offs to exclude the impact of net charge - offs associated with certain loan sales during the quarter ended September 30, 2014. BB&T’s management believes this adjustment increases comparability of period - to - period results and believes that investors may f ind it useful in their analysis of the Corporation. The effective tax rate for the quarter ended June 30, 2015 has been adjusted to exclude the impact of certain adjustments. B B&T ’s management believes this adjustment increases comparability of period - to - period results and uses this measure to assess performance and believes investors may find it useful in their analysis of the Corporation. A reconciliation of these non - GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure is included in BB&T’s Second Quarter 2015 Quarterly Performance Summary, which is available on BB&T’s website at www.bbt.com.

Risk - weighted assets are determined based on regulatory capital requirements in effect for the period presented. The ratio for periods prior to 2015 is the Tier 1 common equity ratio, which was based on the definition used for the SCAP assessment. This ratio was a non - GA AP measure. BB&T's management used this measure to assess the quality of capital and believes that investors found the measure useful in their analysis of the Corporation. This capital measure was not necessarily comparable to similar capital measures that may be presented by other companies. Management believes this measure was fairly comparable to Common Equity Tier 1 capital, which is required under Basel III . 2 Under Transitional Approach Common Equity Tier 1 1 Basel I Basel III 2
