Strong Revenue Momentum combined with Positive Operating Leverage Integration on track
NEW YORK, October 18, 2007 — The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation (NYSE: BK) reported third quarter income from continuing operations of $642 million and diluted earnings per share of 56 cents which compares to 41 cents a year ago and 62 cents sequentially. The merger of The Bank of New York Company, Inc. with Mellon Financial Corporation was completed July 1, 2007.
-- Adjusting for the impact of merger and integration expense ($218
million pre-tax), diluted earnings per share for the third quarter of
2007 was 67 cents, which compares to 50 cents a year ago and 66 cents
sequentially.
-- Adjusting for the impact of merger and integration expenses ($218
million pre-tax) and intangible amortization expense ($131 million pre-
tax), diluted earnings per share for the third quarter of 2007 was 74
cents, which compares to 51 cents a year ago and 69 cents sequentially.
Income from continuing operations was $448 million in the second quarter of 2007, and $298 million in the third quarter of 2006.
"We are off to a tremendous start as a new company," said Robert P. Kelly, chief executive officer of The Bank of New York Mellon. "During a volatile market environment, we delivered strong double-digit increases in revenue and profit reflecting a combination of impressive organic growth and the positive impact of market volatility on our securities servicing businesses. While the asset management environment during the quarter was challenging, we capitalized on our strength in money market funds and won a landmark mandate in China. Our pipelines are in great shape, credit quality remains strong, we launched our new brand and the integration is proceeding well."
The results for the third quarter of 2007 include the net pre-tax benefit of $27 million from a settlement received for early termination of a contract that occurred in 2005 associated with the clearing business, as well as the pre-tax write-offs of the value of the remaining interest in a hedge fund manager that was sold in 2006 ($32 million) and internally developed software ($6 million). In addition, the impact of the merger in the third quarter on the state marginal tax rate required a recalculation of the yield on the leverage lease portfolio. The effect was a $22 million reduction in net interest revenue, together with a $45 million tax benefit recorded as a reduction to taxes. The net impact of these items increased earnings per share by approximately 1 cent.
Third Quarter Highlights of The Bank of New York Mellon (Unless otherwise noted, all comments begin with the results of the third quarter of 2007. This is followed by commentary that compares the current period to pro forma combined results of the third quarter of 2006 unless otherwise noted. The appendix to this release provides the pro forma combined results, without purchase accounting adjustments and assumes that the merger had occurred at the beginning of the third quarter of 2006. Please refer to the Quarterly Earnings Summary Report for detailed business sector information.)
-- Total revenue (FTE) reached a record level of $3.614 billion,
consisting of 81% fee and other revenue and 19% net interest revenue.
On a pro forma combined basis, the growth was 24%, driven by higher fee
revenue of 21% and net interest revenue of 40%.
-- Assets under management, excluding securities lending assets, amounted
to $1.106 trillion. On a pro forma combined basis, this represents an
increase of 19% compared to the prior year and 2% (unannualized)
sequentially. Net asset flows totaled $29 billion for the third
quarter of 2007. Assets under custody and administration amounted to
$20.8 trillion. On a pro forma combined basis, this represents an
increase of 22% compared to the prior year and 2% (unannualized)
sequentially.
-- Asset and wealth management fees totaled $854 million. On a pro forma
combined basis, this represents an increase of 25%, reflecting net new
business and higher equity market levels. Sequential revenue increased
1% (unannualized), in line with market levels. The impact of market
volatility on certain alternative, quantitative and fixed income
strategies was offset by strong net inflows into money market funds.
-- Performance fees were a negative $3 million. On a pro forma combined
basis, performance fees were $59 million in the third quarter of 2006
and $63 million in the second quarter of 2007. The significant decline
from both periods principally reflects the impact of market volatility
during the third quarter on certain alternative and quantitative
strategies as well as weaker relative performance compared to the third
quarter of 2006.
-- Asset servicing fees totaled $720 million. On a pro forma combined
basis, the increase was 25% reflecting a record level of securities
lending revenue and increased client activity related to market
volatility and net new business. Securities lending fee revenue was
$108 million compared to $66 million in the prior year and $97 million
sequentially. Wider spreads driven by market volatility and a decrease
in interest rates offset the typical seasonal sequential decline in
securities lending fee revenue.
-- Issuer services fees were $436 million. On a pro forma combined basis,
the increase was 79% and if adjusted for the Acquired Corporate Trust
Business the increase was approximately 15%. The sequential increase
was 5% (unannualized), reflecting a strong quarter in both depositary
receipts and global products within Corporate Trust.
-- Clearing and execution services fees totaled $304 million. On a pro
forma combined basis, these fees increased 3% compared with the third
quarter of 2006 and increased 7% (unannualized) compared with the
second quarter of 2007. Excluding the impact of the contribution of
certain businesses to ConvergEx in October of 2006, clearing and
execution services fees rose approximately 25% vs. 3Q06, driven by
strong growth in trading activity in a normally slow quarter along with
continued growth in money market and mutual fund positions.
-- Foreign exchange and other trading fees totaled $238 million. This
compares to $137 million in the prior year and $176 million
sequentially, on a pro forma combined basis. The increases compared to
both prior periods reflect higher client volumes, as well as a
significant increase in currency volatility and a higher valuation of
the credit derivatives portfolio.
-- Investment income was $22 million. On a pro forma combined basis, this
compares to $54 million in the prior year and $77 million sequentially.
The decline compared to prior periods principally reflects the lower
market value of seed capital investments due to the market environment.
-- Net interest revenue (FTE) totaled $674 million with a net interest
margin of 2.02%. This compares to a pro forma combined net interest
revenue of $481 million in the third quarter of 2006 and $592 million
in the second quarter of 2007.
The increase from both prior periods reflects a higher level of average
interest-earning assets driven principally by the growth in client
deposits. The net margin increased 22 basis points compared to the
prior year and 7 basis points sequentially, principally reflecting the
benefit of wider spreads on investment securities. Sequentially, the
margin benefited from the impact of market volatility on short-term
spreads as well as higher deposit levels, lower bond premium
amortization due to slowing prepayments, partially offset by the
negative impact of the required recalculation of the yield on the
leverage lease portfolio under FAS 13 ($22 million).
-- Total noninterest expense was $2.706 billion. This compares to a pro
forma combined noninterest expense of $2.146 billion in the third
quarter of 2006 and $2.642 billion in the second quarter of 2007.
Excluding merger and integration expense ($218 million) and intangible
amortization ($131 million), noninterest expense on a pro forma
combined basis increased 16% compared to the third quarter of 2006 and
declined 3% (unannualized) sequentially. The results reflect $79
million in expense synergies ($62 million net of open positions
eliminated) associated with the merger (detailed in the Quarterly
Earnings Summary Report).
On a pro forma combined basis, excluding merger and integration
expense, intangible amortization expense and the non-operating items in
the third quarter of 2007 detailed on page 1 and the second quarter of
2007 detailed on page 11, we generated 1,100 bps of positive operating
leverage compared to the prior year and 400 bps sequentially.
-- There was no provision for credit losses in the third quarter of 2007,
compared to a credit of $4 million in the third quarter of 2006 and a
credit of $15 million in the second quarter of 2007.
-- Pre-tax margin (FTE) was 25% in the third quarter of 2007. Excluding
merger and integration expenses, intangible amortization expense and
the non-operating items detailed on page 1, the pre-tax margin (FTE)
was 36%. This compares to 30% in the third quarter of 2006 and 34%
sequentially, on a pro forma combined basis excluding merger and
integration expense, intangible amortization and the non-operating
items in the second quarter of 2007 detailed on page 11.
The following comparisons are to legacy The Bank of New York only.
-- The effective tax rate was 28.2% compared with 29.4% in the third
quarter of 2006 and 31.9% in the second quarter of 2007. The lower
effective tax rate vs. the prior year reflects the impact of the
recalculation of the yield on the leverage lease portfolio under FAS
13. Excluding this adjustment, the effective tax rate was 32.4%.
-- Total assets at Sept. 30, 2007 were $184 billion, an increase of $58
billion from June 30, 2007, reflecting the merger with Mellon.
-- Return on tangible common equity was 46% for the third quarter of 2007,
or 53% excluding merger and integration expense, intangible
amortization expense and the non-operating items detailed on page 1.
-- The adjusted tangible shareholders' equity ratio was 5.31% at Sept. 30,
2007 compared to 4.53% at June 30, 2007.
-- Average diluted shares of 1.141 billion increased by approximately 418
million shares from the second quarter of 2007, reflecting the merger.
On Oct. 9, 2007, The Bank of New York Mellon declared a quarterly common stock dividend of 24 cents per share. This cash dividend is payable on Nov. 2, 2007, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on Oct. 24, 2007.

Revision of Prior Period Financial Statements
Our Company's fourth quarter 2006 acquisition of the Acquired Corporate Trust Business and sale of our Retail Business to JPMorgan Chase included a "Like Kind Exchange" (the "LKE") of finite lived intangible assets, principally core deposit intangibles, under Internal Revenue Code section ("Section") 1031. The LKE deferred taxes of $164 million were treated as a liability acquired in the business combination with an offsetting increase to goodwill.
We reviewed the transaction and now believe that $164 million of deferred tax expense should have been recognized on the gain related to the Retail Business intangibles included in the LKE with JPMorgan Chase. Accordingly, we have corrected the fourth quarter 2006 financial statements with a non-cash charge to discontinued operations - income taxes and a reduction in goodwill of $164 million. This revision does not impact income from continuing operations or our tangible common equity.
As shown in the financial information included in this release, we have revised our prior years' financial statements to reflect these taxes in discontinued operations. Because the revision was not material to any prior year financial statements, the revisions to prior periods will be presented in future filings, pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, "Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements." Financial statements for the year ended Dec. 31, 2006 will be revised in the Dec. 31, 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The table below presents the effect of the correction on our previously reported consolidated statements of income for the fiscal year ended Dec. 31, 2006 and for the three-month period ended Dec. 31, 2006.

Cautionary Statement
The information presented in this Earnings Release, may contain forward- looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements, which may be expressed in a variety of ways, including the use of future or present tense language, relate to, among other things, statements with respect to future financial goals, the merger of The Bank of New York and Mellon, including expectations with respect to the merged companies, integration and operations after the merger, achievement of milestones, future growth and prospects. These statements and other forward- looking statements contained in other public disclosures of The Bank of New York Mellon (the Company) which make reference to the cautionary factors described in this Earnings Release, are based upon current beliefs and expectations and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties (some of which are beyond the Company's control). The following risks, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in the forward-looking statements: the businesses of The Bank of New York and Mellon may not be integrated successfully or the integration may be more difficult, time-consuming or costly than expected; the combined company may not realize, to the extent or at the time it expects, revenue synergies and cost savings from the transaction; revenue following the transaction may be lower than expected as a result of losses of customers or other reasons; deposit attrition, operating costs, customer loss and business disruption following the transaction, including, without limitation, difficulties in maintaining relationships with employees, may be greater than expected; market volatility; operational risk; changes in political and economic conditions; equity, fixed-income and foreign exchange market fluctuations; geographic sources of income; the price of oil; and levels of tax-free income. Additional factors that could cause the Company's results to differ materially from those described in the forward- looking statements can be found in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and The Bank of New York Company, Inc.'s and Mellon Financial Corporation's historical reports (such as Annual Reports on Form 10- K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. All forward-looking statements in this Earnings Release speak only as of Oct. 18, 2007, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after that date or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
