Item 2. Management’s Discussion & Analysis of Financial Condition & Results of Operations
Introduction
This section reviews the financial condition and results of operations of KeyCorp and its subsidiaries for the quarterly periods ended June 30, 2017, and June 30, 2016. Some tables may include additional periods to comply with disclosure requirements or to illustrate trends in greater depth. When you read this discussion, you should also refer to the consolidated financial statements and related notes in this report. The page locations of specific sections and notes that we refer to are presented in the Table of Contents.
References to our “2016 Form 10-K” refer to our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, which has been filed with the SEC and is available on its website (www.sec.gov) and on our website (www.key.com/ir).
Terminology
Throughout this discussion, references to “Key,” “we,” “our,” “us,” and similar terms refer to the consolidated entity consisting of KeyCorp and its subsidiaries. “KeyCorp” refers solely to the parent holding company, and “KeyBank” refers to KeyCorp’s subsidiary bank, KeyBank National Association.
Throughout the following discussion, industry-specific terms are used as defined below:
| |
• | We use the phrase continuing operations in this document to mean all of our businesses other than the education lending business and Austin. The education lending business and Austin have been accounted for as discontinued operations since 2009. |
| |
• | Our exit loan portfolios are separate from our discontinued operations. These portfolios, which are in a run-off mode, stem from product lines we decided to cease because they no longer fit with our corporate strategy. These exit loan portfolios are included in Other Segments. |
| |
• | We engage in capital markets activities primarily through business conducted by our Key Corporate Bank segment. These activities encompass a variety of products and services. Among other things, we trade securities as a dealer, enter into derivative contracts (both to accommodate clients’ financing needs and to mitigate certain risks), and conduct transactions in foreign currencies (both to accommodate clients’ needs and to benefit from fluctuations in exchange rates). |
| |
• | For regulatory purposes, capital is divided into two classes. Federal regulations currently prescribe that at least one-half of a bank or BHC’s total risk-based capital must qualify as Tier 1 capital. Both total and Tier 1 capital serve as bases for several measures of capital adequacy, which is an important indicator of financial stability and condition. As described under the heading “Regulatory capital requirements – Capital planning and stress testing” in the section entitled “Supervision and Regulation” that begins on page 8 of our 2016 Form 10-K, the regulators are required to conduct a supervisory capital assessment of all BHCs with assets of at least $50 billion, including KeyCorp. As part of this capital adequacy review, banking regulators evaluate a component of Tier 1 capital, known as Common Equity Tier 1, under the Regulatory Capital Rules. The “Capital” section of this report under the heading “Capital adequacy” provides more information on total capital, Tier 1 capital, and the Regulatory Capital Rules, including Common Equity Tier 1, and describes how these measures are calculated. |
The acronyms and abbreviations identified below are used in the Management’s Discussion & Analysis of Financial Condition & Results of Operations as well as in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited). You may find it helpful to refer back to this page as you read this report.

(a) | In September 2009, we decided to discontinue the education lending business conducted through Key Education Resources, the education payment and financing unit of KeyBank. As a result of this decision, we have accounted for this business as a discontinued operation.

Economic Overview
GDP data suggests that the U.S. economy got off to a slow start in 2017, with 1.2% GDP growth in the first quarter of 2017 and 2.6% GDP growth in the second quarter of 2017. The initial estimate suggests growth in consumer spending bounced back to 2.8% in the second quarter of 2017 after slowing down to 1.9% in the first quarter of 2017. Gross private domestic investment, up 2.0%, also added to second quarter of 2017 growth after weighing on growth during the first quarter of 2017, down 1.2%. The IMF estimates that global growth is expected to rise from 3.1% in 2016 to 3.5% in 2017 and 3.6% in 2018, on expectations of more robust global demand, reduced deflationary pressures, and optimistic financial markets.
Oil prices have fallen since the beginning of the year to $45 per barrel, but are above the lows in early 2016 when prices dropped to $25 per barrel. Although inventories remain elevated from a historical standpoint, recent declines may help clear the way for stronger appreciation in 2017 and help support America’s energy industry. The stock market reached new records in the second quarter of 2017, with the S&P 500 equity index up 8.2% since the end of 2016. A general rally has occurred following the November elections, based on expectations for growth-friendly economic policies from the new U.S. presidential administration.
581,000 new jobs were added in the U.S. during the second quarter of 2017. This was up from the first quarter of 2017, which saw gains of 498,000. However, bad weather accelerated hiring at the beginning of the year and a late Easter depressed payrolls in March of 2017, when employment increased by only 50,000 jobs. The unemployment rate edged higher to 4.4% as more workers entered the labor force. Despite steady gains and a tight labor market, wage growth has failed to accelerate, with earnings for all workers increasing by only 2.5% over the past year. This suggests that even though the labor market has tightened, it may not yet actually be at full employment as speculated, estimated at 4.6%. Headline inflation was up by 1.6% year over year in June 2017, below the Federal Reserve’s target of 2.0%, although the Federal Reserve has stated that it believes that this weakness is likely transitory. Core inflation was also subdued year over year, at 1.7%.
Thanks to the solid economy and still low interest rates, the housing market generally benefited in the second quarter of 2017. New home sales growth was up 6.4% compared to the second quarter of 2016, while existing home sales were up 1.6%. Prices are also up, with average new home prices up 4.2% from year ago levels, and existing home prices up 4.9%. Single family housing starts also posted respectable gains in the second quarter of 2017, up 9.0%, from the second quarter of 2016, although multi-family construction was down 14.6%.
The Federal Reserve raised the target range for the federal funds rate by 25 basis points in June 2017, to 1% to 1.25%. This was widely expected and consistent with the central bank’s plan to gradually normalize interest rates. The Federal Reserve said that economic activity has been rising moderately so far this year, an upgrade from the May statement that noted it had slowed. The statement acknowledged that job growth has moderated but remains strong. The Federal Reserve sounded more upbeat on consumer spending and business investment. Risks to the economic outlook were again described as roughly balanced. The Federal Open Market Committee meeting minutes also suggested that a reduction of the Federal Reserve’s balance sheet will begin later this year. The 10-year U.S. Treasury yield stood at 2.2% at the end of the second quarter of 2017, which was 29 basis points below the prior quarter.
Long-term financial targets
Our long-term financial targets are as follows:
| |
• | Generate positive operating leverage and a cash efficiency ratio of less than 60%; |
| |
• | Maintain a moderate risk profile by targeting a net loan charge-offs to average loans ratio in the range of .40% to .60%; and |
| |
• | Achieve a return on tangible common equity ratio in the range of 13% to 15%. |

Strategic developments
Our actions and results during the first six months of 2017 supported our corporate strategy described in the “Introduction” section under the “Corporate strategy” heading on page 35 of our 2016 Form 10-K.
| |
• | We continued to generate positive operating leverage versus the prior year and our cash efficiency ratio improved to 59.3%, or 59.4%, excluding notable items. Revenue growth was driven by net interest income and fee-based businesses. We also achieved $400 million in annualized cost savings from First Niagara and remain on track to achieve $50 million in incremental savings by early 2018. |
| |
• | We made investments for growth across our franchise, including the acquisition of Key Merchant Services, LLC and the announced acquisition of HelloWallet. |
| |
• | Net loan charge-offs increased during the first six months of 2017 compared to the year-ago period due to loan growth over the past twelve months and credit quality migration in our commercial loan portfolio. Our net loan charge-offs were .29% of average loans for the first six months of 2017, below our targeted range. |
| |
• | Capital management remains a priority for 2017. As previously reported, share repurchases of up to $350 million were included in the 2016 capital plan, which was effective through the second quarter of 2017. We completed $94 million of Common Share repurchases, including $88 million of Common Share repurchases in the open market and $6 million of Common Share repurchases related to employee equity compensation programs in the second quarter of 2017 under this authorization. In April 2017, we submitted to the Federal Reserve and provided to the OCC our 2017 capital plan under the annual CCAR process. On June 28, 2017, the Federal Reserve announced that it did not object to our 2017 capital plan. Share repurchases of up to $800 million are included in the 2017 capital plan, which is effective from the third quarter of 2017 through the second quarter of 2018. |
| |
• | As previously reported, our 2016 capital plan proposed an increase in our quarterly common share dividend from $.085 to $.095 for the second quarter of 2017, which was approved by our Board in May 2017. In the fourth quarter of 2017, the Board plans to consider a potential increase in our quarterly common share dividend, up to $.105 per share, consistent with the 2017 capital plan. An additional potential increase in the quarterly common share dividend, up to $.12 per share, is expected to be considered by the Board for the second quarter of 2018. |

Supervision and regulation
The following discussion provides a summary of recent regulatory developments and should be read in conjunction with the disclosure included in our 2016 Form 10-K under the heading “Supervision and Regulation” in Item 1. Business and under the heading “II. Compliance Risk” in Item 1A. Risk Factors.
Regulatory capital requirement
In July 2013, the U.S. banking agencies adopted a final rule to implement the Basel III international capital framework (“Basel III”) with an effective date of January 1, 2015, and a multi-year transition period ending on December 31, 2018 (“Regulatory Capital Rules”). Consistent with Basel III, the Regulatory Capital Rules further restrict the type of instruments that may be recognized in Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital (including the phase out of trust preferred securities from tier 1 capital for BHCs above a certain asset threshold, like KeyCorp), establish a minimum Tier 1 Common Equity Capital ratio requirement of 4.5% and capital buffers to address procyclicality concerns and absorb losses during periods of financial stress, and refine several of the methodologies used for determining risk-weighted assets. The Regulatory Capital Rules provide additional requirements for large banking organizations with over $250 billion in total consolidated assets or $10 billion in foreign exposure, but those additional requirements do not apply to KeyCorp nor to KeyBank. Accordingly, for purposes of the Regulatory Capital Rules, KeyCorp and KeyBank are treated as “standardized approach” banking organizations.
The Basel III capital framework and the U.S. implementation of the Basel III capital framework are discussed in more detail in Item 1. Business of our 2016 Form 10-K under the heading “Supervision and Regulation - Regulatory capital requirements.”
Under the Regulatory Capital Rules, “standardized approach” banking organizations, like KeyCorp, are required to meet the minimum capital and leverage ratios set forth in Figure 3 below. At June 30, 2017, Key had an estimated Common Equity Tier 1 Capital Ratio of 9.82% under the fully phased-in Regulatory Capital Rules. Also at June 30, 2017, based on the fully phased-in Regulatory Capital Rules, Key estimates that its capital and leverage ratios, after adjustment for market risk, would be as set forth in Figure 3.
Figure 3. Pro Forma Ratios vs. Minimum Capital Ratios Calculated Under the Fully Phased-In Regulatory Capital Rules
|
| | | | | | | |
Ratios (including capital conservation buffer) | Key June 30, 2017 Pro forma | Minimum January 1, 2017 | Phase-in Period | Minimum January 1, 2019 |
Common Equity Tier 1 (a) | 9.82 | % | 4.5 | % | None | 4.5 | % |
Capital conservation buffer (b) | | — |
| 1/1/16-1/1/19 | 2.5 |
|
Common Equity Tier 1 + Capital conservation buffer | | 4.5 |
| 1/1/16-1/1/19 | 7.0 |
|
Tier 1 Capital | 10.52 | % | 6.0 | % | None | 6.0 |
|
Tier 1 Capital + Capital conservation buffer | | 6.0 |
| 1/1/16-1/1/19 | 8.5 |
|
Total Capital | 12.46 | % | 8.0 | % | None | 8.0 |
|
Total Capital + Capital conservation buffer | | 8.0 |
| 1/1/16-1/1/19 | 10.5 |
|
Leverage (c) | 9.81 | % | 4.0 | % | None | 4.0 |
|
| |
(a) | See Figure 6 entitled “GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations,” which presents the computation for estimated Common Equity Tier 1. The table reconciles the GAAP performance measure to the corresponding non-GAAP measure, which provides a basis for period-to-period comparisons. |
| |
(b) | Capital conservation buffer must consist of Common Equity Tier 1 capital. As a standardized approach banking organization, KeyCorp is not subject to the countercyclical capital buffer of up to 2.5% imposed upon an advanced approaches banking organization under the Regulatory Capital Rules. |
| |
(c) | As a standardized approach banking organization, KeyCorp is not subject to the 3% supplemental leverage ratio requirement, which becomes effective January 1, 2018. |
Revised prompt corrective action framework
The federal prompt corrective action (“PCA”) framework under the FDIA groups FDIC-insured depository institutions into one of five capital categories: “well capitalized,” “adequately capitalized,” “undercapitalized,” “significantly undercapitalized,” and “critically undercapitalized,” for purposes of determining whether a bank should be required to establish a capital restoration plan and become subject to limitations on the bank’s activities, capital actions, and payment of management fees.
In addition to implementing Basel III in the United States, the Regulatory Capital Rules also revised the capital category thresholds under the PCA framework for FDIC-insured depository institutions such as KeyBank. The revised PCA framework table in Figure 4 identifies the capital category thresholds for a “well capitalized” and an “adequately capitalized” institution under the Regulatory Capital Rules.
Figure 4. "Well Capitalized" and "Adequately Capitalized" Capital Category Ratios under Revised PCA Framework
|
| | | | | |
Prompt Corrective Action | | Capital Category | |
Ratio | | Well Capitalized (a) | | Adequately Capitalized | |
Common Equity Tier 1 Risk-Based | | 6.5 | % | 4.5 | % |
Tier 1 Risk-Based | | 8.0 | | 6.0 | |
Total Risk-Based | | 10.0 | | 8.0 | |
Tier 1 Leverage (b) | | 5.0 | | 4.0 | |
| |
(a) | A “well capitalized” institution also must not be subject to any written agreement, order, or directive to meet and maintain a specific capital level for any capital measure. |
| |
(b) | As a “standardized approach” banking organization, KeyBank is not subject to the 3% supplemental leverage ratio requirement, which becomes effective January 1, 2018. |
We believe that, as of June 30, 2017, KeyBank (consolidated) satisfied the risk-based and leverage capital requirements to be considered “well capitalized” for purposes of the revised PCA framework. However, investors should not regard this determination as a representation of the overall financial condition or prospects of KeyBank because the PCA framework is intended to serve a limited supervisory function. Moreover, it is important to note that the PCA framework does not apply to BHCs, like KeyCorp.
Capital planning and stress testing
On January 30, 2017, the Federal Reserve released a final rule to revise the capital plan and stress test rules as they apply to large, noncomplex BHCs and U.S. intermediaries of foreign banks. Under the final rule, a large noncomplex BHC is one with total consolidated assets of more than $50 billion but less than $250 billion, and nonbank assets of less than $75 billion (“covered BHCs”). This includes KeyCorp.
The final rule provides relief from the compliance requirements associated with the Federal Reserve’s capital plan and stress test rules. Specifically, the final rule relieves covered BHCs from the qualitative assessment portion of the Federal Reserve’s CCAR program and modifies the reporting requirements for these organizations by reducing the reporting requirements applicable to covered BHCs under the FR Y-14A and by raising the materiality thresholds for specific portfolio reporting requirements.
The final rule also limits the amount of capital a covered BHC is authorized to distribute in excess of the amount set forth in its capital plan without Federal Reserve approval (the “de minimis exception”), and establishes a one-quarter blackout period during which a BHC is not permitted to submit a notice to use the de minimis exception or seek prior approval to make a capital distribution in an amount that exceeds the de minimis exception level. If exigent circumstances arise during the blackout period that require a capital distribution, a covered BHC may resubmit its capital plan and request expedited review from the Federal Reserve; however, the Federal Reserve is not required to expedite the review process.
The final rule also requires covered BHCs to measure nonbank assets on a monthly basis and report the monthly average to the Federal Reserve on a quarterly basis beginning March 31, 2017.
The final rule became effective 30 days after publication in the Federal Register, and therefore, the relief provided under the final rule from the qualitative assessment portion of the CCAR program is effective for the 2017 CCAR cycle.
On June 9, 2017, the Federal Reserve released a proposal and request for comment on certain information collection activities conducted under the series FR Y-14 schedules and reports that are used in connection with the CCAR program. As they would pertain to Key, the proposed revisions to the FR Y-14A and FR Y-14Q generally consist of modifications to reported items and
instructions that would clarify the intended reporting of those items, and seek to further align reported items with the methodology, standards, and treatment in other regulatory reports or with the FR Y-14 schedules. In addition, the Federal Reserve has proposed to eliminate two schedules from the FR Y-14A to reduce the burden, but also to add a new sub-schedule to supplement the existing information collection around business plan change information. Other aspects of the proposal that do not pertain to Key would require the U.S. intermediate holding companies of foreign banks to apply the global market shock adjustment to certain reporting schedules under the FR Y-14A and FR Y-14Q.
The comment period for the proposed rule ends on August 8, 2017. If the proposal is adopted in final form, it is expected to have a neutral-to-low impact on Key’s reporting and compliance obligations.
Liquidity requirements
In October 2014, the federal banking agencies published a final rule to implement the Basel III liquidity coverage ratio (“Basel III LCR”) for U.S. banking organizations (the “Liquidity Coverage Rules”) that establishes a minimum LCR for certain internationally active bank and nonbank financial companies (excluding KeyCorp) and a modified version of the LCR (“Modified LCR”) for BHCs and other depository institution holding companies with over $50 billion in consolidated assets that are not internationally active (including KeyCorp). KeyBank will not be subject to the LCR or the Modified LCR under the Liquidity Coverage Rules unless the OCC affirmatively determines that application to KeyBank is appropriate in light of KeyBank’s asset size, level of complexity, risk profile, scope of operations, affiliation with foreign or domestic covered entities, or risk to the financial system.
Under the Liquidity Coverage Rules, KeyCorp must calculate a Modified LCR on a monthly basis, and was required to satisfy a minimum Modified LCR requirement of 100% by January 1, 2017. At June 30, 2017, Key’s estimated Modified LCR was above 100%. In the future, KeyCorp may change the composition of our investment portfolio, increase the size of the overall investment portfolio, and modify product offerings to enhance or optimize our liquidity position.
Net stable funding ratio
The federal banking agencies commenced the U.S. implementation of the Basel III net stable funding ratio (“NSFR”) in April and May 2016, with the release of a proposed rule to implement a NSFR requirement for certain internationally active banking organizations (excluding KeyCorp) and a modified version of the minimum NSFR requirement (“Modified NSFR”) for BHCs and other depository institution holding companies with over $50 billion in consolidated assets that are not internationally active (including KeyCorp), together with quarterly public disclosure requirements. The proposed rule would require banking organizations to satisfy a minimum NSFR requirement of 1.0 on an ongoing basis. However, banking organizations subject to the Modified NSFR (like KeyCorp) would be required to maintain a lower minimum amount of available stable funding, equal to 70% of the required stable funding under the NSFR. The proposed rule would be effective on January 1, 2018. The comment period for the NPR expired on August 5, 2016. If the proposed NSFR requirement is adopted as a final rule, then similar to actions taken in connection with the implementation of the Liquidity Coverage Rules, KeyCorp may adjust its balance sheet or modify product offerings to enhance its liquidity position.
Resolution and recovery planning
BHCs with at least $50 billion in total consolidated assets, like KeyCorp, are required to periodically submit to the Federal Reserve and FDIC a plan discussing how the company could be rapidly and efficiently resolved if the company failed or experienced material financial distress. Insured depository institutions with at least $50 billion in total consolidated assets, like KeyBank, are also required to submit a resolution plan to the FDIC. These plans are due annually. KeyCorp and KeyBank were not required to submit resolution plans for 2016 because the FDIC and Federal Reserve deferred such requirement until December 2017. By letter dated March 24, 2017, KeyCorp received guidance from the Federal Reserve and the FDIC regarding the information requirements for certain aspects of KeyCorp’s December 2017 resolution plan submission. That letter is publicly available on the Federal Reserve’s website, https://www.federalreserve.gov/newsevents/pressreleases/bcreg20170324a.htm.
The Federal Reserve and FDIC make available on their websites the public sections of resolution plans for the companies, including KeyCorp and KeyBank, that submitted plans. The public section of the resolution plans of KeyCorp and KeyBank is available at http://www.federalreserve.gov/bankinforeg/resolution-plans.htm and https://www.fdic.gov/regulations/reform/resplans/.
On September 28, 2016, the OCC released final guidelines that establish standards for recovery planning by certain large OCC-regulated institutions, including KeyBank. The guidelines require such institutions to establish a comprehensive framework for
evaluating the financial effects of severe stress events, and recovery actions an institution may pursue to remain a viable, going concern during a period of severe financial stress. Under the final guidelines, an institution’s recovery plan must include triggers to alert the institution of severe stress events, escalation procedures, recovery options, and a process for periodic review and approval by senior management and the board of directors. The recovery plan should be tailored to the complexity, scope of operations, and risk profile of the institution.
Because KeyBank had average total consolidated assets of greater than $100 billion but less than $750 billion as reported on KeyBank’s Consolidated Reports of Condition and Income for the four most recent consecutive quarters prior to January 1, 2017, it must be in compliance with the guidelines not later than January 1, 2018.
Deposit insurance and assessments
As required under the Dodd-Frank Act, in March 2015, the FDIC approved a final rule to impose a surcharge on the quarterly deposit insurance assessments of insured depository institutions having total consolidated assets of at least $10 billion (like KeyBank). The surcharge is 4.5 cents per $100 of the institution’s assessment base (after making certain adjustments). The final rule became effective on July 1, 2016. As of July 1, 2016, KeyBank must pay a surcharge to assist in bringing the reserve ratio to the statutory minimum of 1.35%. Surcharges will continue through the quarter that the DIF reserve ratio reaches or exceeds 1.35%, but not later than December 31, 2018. If the reserve ratio does not reach 1.35% by December 31, 2018 (provided it is at least 1.15%), the FDIC will impose a shortfall assessment on March 31, 2019, on insured depository institutions with total consolidated assets of $10 billion or more (like KeyBank).
In December 2016, the FDIC issued a final rule that imposes recordkeeping requirements on insured depository institutions with two million or more deposit accounts (including KeyBank) in order to facilitate rapid payment of insured deposits to customers if the institutions were to fail. The rule requires those insured depository institutions to: (i) maintain complete and accurate data on each depositor’s ownership interest by right and capacity for all of the institution’s deposit accounts; and (ii) develop the capability to calculate the insured and uninsured amounts for each deposit owner within 24 hours of failure. The FDIC will conduct periodic testing of compliance with these requirements, and institutions subject to the rule must submit to the FDIC a certification of compliance, signed by the KeyBank CEO, and deposit insurance coverage summary report on or before the mandatory compliance date and annually thereafter. The final rule became effective on April 1, 2017, with a mandatory compliance date of April 1, 2020.
Single counterparty credit limits
In March 2016, the Federal Reserve issued an NPR proposing to establish single counterparty credit limits for BHCs with total consolidated assets of $50 billion or more. This proposal would implement a provision in the Dodd-Frank Act and replaces proposals on this subject issued by the Federal Reserve in 2011 and 2012. Under the proposal, a covered BHC (including KeyCorp) would not be allowed to have an aggregate net credit exposure to any unaffiliated counterparty that exceeds 25% of the consolidated capital stock and surplus of the covered BHC. Globally, systemically important banks and certain other large BHCs (excluding KeyCorp) would be subject to stricter limits under the proposal. A covered BHC such as KeyCorp would be required to comply with the proposed limits and quarterly reporting to show such compliance starting two years after the effective date of a final rule. The comment period for the NPR expired on June 3, 2016.
ERISA fiduciary standard
In April 2016, the Department of Labor published final rules and amendments to certain prohibited transaction exemptions regarding which service providers would be regarded as fiduciaries under ERISA for making investment advice recommendations to: (i) certain retirement plan fiduciaries, participants, or beneficiaries; and (ii) owners or beneficiaries of individual retirement accounts and health savings accounts, among other retirement plans. The purpose of the rules is to place fiduciary obligations, rather than the lesser legal obligations that currently apply, on these service providers. Accordingly, the rules subject any financial institution making recommendations for either the purchase or sale of investments in or rollover of the respective retirement plan to certain fiduciary obligations under ERISA such as an impartial conduct standard and not selling certain investment products whose compensation may raise a conflict of interest for the advisor without entering into a contract providing certain disclosures and legal remedies to the customer. Under the Department of Labor’s original rules, the impartial standard requirement for financial institutions and their advisors was to become effective April 10, 2017. However, in response to a Presidential Order, the Department of Labor extended the effective date to June 9, 2017. The contract provisions must be in place by January 1, 2018. The Department of Labor will continue to review whether to modify, further delay, or rescind these rules in whole or in part.
Highlights of Our Performance
Financial performance
For the second quarter of 2017, we announced net income from continuing operations attributable to Key common shareholders of $393 million, or $.36 per common share. Our second quarter of 2017 results compare to net income from continuing operations attributable to Key common shareholders of $193 million, or $.23 per common share, for the second quarter of 2016. During the second quarter of 2017, our results included a number of notable items, including a gain related to our merchant services business, the finalization of purchase accounting, merger-related charges, and a charitable contribution. These notable items had a pre-tax net benefit of $43 million, or $.02 per common share, for the second quarter of 2017.
Second quarter 2017 net interest income included $100 million of purchase accounting accretion related to the acquisition of First Niagara, including $42 million related to the finalization of previous purchase accounting estimates.
Our taxable-equivalent net interest income was $987 million for the second quarter of 2017, and the net interest margin was 3.30%, compared to taxable-equivalent net interest income of $605 million and a net interest margin of 2.76% for the second quarter of 2016, reflecting the benefit from the First Niagara acquisition, including purchase accounting accretion, as well as higher earning asset yields and balances. For the full year of 2017, we expect net interest income to be in the range of $3.8 billion to $3.9 billion. Our outlook does not include any additional rate increases in 2017.
Our noninterest income was $653 million for the second quarter of 2017, compared to $473 million for the year-ago quarter. Growth was largely driven by the acquisition of First Niagara, as well as core business momentum and a $64 million one-time gain from acquiring the remaining ownership interest in a merchant services joint venture. Investment banking and debt placement fees grew $37 million, related to strong commercial mortgage banking, underwriting, and advisory fees. For the full year of 2017, we expect noninterest income to be in the range of $2.35 billion to $2.45 billion.
Our noninterest expense was $995 million for the second quarter of 2017, which included $44 million of merger-related charges. Merger-related charges for the quarter were made up of $31 million of personnel expense and $13 million of nonpersonnel expense, largely reflected in business services and professional fees and marketing expense. During the second quarter of 2016, we incurred $45 million of merger-related charges.
Excluding merger-related charges, noninterest expense was $245 million higher than the second quarter of last year. The increase from the prior year, reflected in both personnel and non-personnel expense, was primarily driven by the acquisition of First Niagara. Higher incentive compensation related to stronger capital markets performance also contributed to the year-over-year increase. For the full year of 2017, we expect noninterest expense excluding merger-related charges to be in the range of $3.7 billion to $3.8 billion.
Average loans were $86.5 billion for the second quarter of 2017, an increase of $25.4 billion compared to the second quarter of 2016, primarily reflecting the impact of the First Niagara acquisition as well as growth in commercial and industrial loans which was broad-based and spread across Key's commercial lines of business. During the second quarter of 2017, our Community Bank middle market segment lending grew 4% from the first quarter of 2016. We anticipate low-end of mid-single digit (4%-6%) loan growth from the fourth quarter of 2016, which translates to $87 billion to $88 billion for fiscal year 2017 average balances.
Average deposits totaled $102.8 billion for the second quarter of 2017, an increase of $28.9 billion compared to the year-ago quarter, primarily reflecting the acquisition of First Niagara and core retail and commercial deposit growth. Our consolidated loan-to-deposit ratio was 87.2% at June 30, 2017, compared to 85.3% at June 30, 2016. We anticipate average deposits to be in the range of $102.5 billion to $103 billion for the fiscal year 2017.
Our provision for credit losses was $66 million for the second quarter of 2017, compared to $52 million for the second quarter of 2016. Our allowance for loan and lease losses was $870 million, or 1.01% of total period-end loans, at June 30, 2017, compared to 1.38% at June 30, 2016. For the remainder of 2017, we expect the provision for credit losses to slightly exceed net loan charge-offs to provide for loan growth.
Net loan charge-offs for the second quarter of 2017 totaled $66 million, or .31% of average total loans, compared to $43 million, or .28%, for the second quarter of 2016. For the remainder of 2017, we expect net loan charge-offs to average loans to remain below our targeted range of 40 to 60 basis points.
At June 30, 2017, our nonperforming loans totaled $507 million, which represented .59% of period-end portfolio loans, compared to $619 million, or 1.00% of period-end portfolio loans, at June 30, 2016. Nonperforming assets at June 30, 2017, totaled $556 million and represented .64% of period-end portfolio loans and OREO and other nonperforming assets, compared to $637 million, or 1.03% of period-end portfolio loans and OREO and other nonperforming assets, at June 30, 2016.
Our capital ratios remain strong. Our tangible common equity and Tier 1 risk-based capital ratios at June 30, 2017, are 8.56% and 10.73%, respectively, compared to 9.95% and 11.41%, respectively, at June 30, 2016. In addition, our Common Equity Tier 1 ratio is 9.91% at June 30, 2017, compared to 11.10% at June 30, 2016. The decrease in our capital ratios was driven by the acquisition of First Niagara.
We continue to return capital to our shareholders by repurchasing Common Shares and through our quarterly common share dividend. In the second quarter of 2017, we completed $94 million of Common Share repurchases, including $88 million of common share repurchases in the open market and $6 million of Common Share repurchases related to employee equity compensation programs and paid a cash dividend of $.095 per Common Share, under our 2016 capital plan authorization.
Figure 5 shows our continuing and discontinued operating results for the current, past, and year-ago quarters. Our financial performance for each of the past five quarters is summarized in Figure 1.

(a) | In September 2009, we decided to discontinue the education lending business conducted through Key Education Resources, the education payment and financing unit of KeyBank. As a result of this decision, we have accounted for these business as a discontinued operation. For further discussion regarding the income (loss) from discontinued operations, see Note 12 (“Acquisition, Divestiture, and Discontinued Operations”). |

Figure 6 presents certain non-GAAP financial measures related to “tangible common equity,” “return on tangible common equity,” “Common Equity Tier 1,” “cash efficiency ratio,” certain financial measures excluding notable items, and “Common Equity Tier 1 under the Regulatory Capital Rules (estimates).”
Notable items include certain revenue or expense items that may occur in a reporting period which management does not consider indicative of ongoing financial performance. Management believes it is useful to consider certain financial metrics with and without merger-related charges and/or other notable items in order to enable a better understanding of Company results, increase comparability of period-to-period results, and to evaluate and forecast those results.
The tangible common equity ratio and the return on tangible common equity ratio have been a focus for some investors, and management believes that these ratios may assist investors in analyzing Key’s capital position without regard to the effects of intangible assets and preferred stock. Traditionally, the banking regulators have assessed bank and BHC capital adequacy based on both the amount and the composition of capital, the calculation of which is prescribed in federal banking regulations. The Federal Reserve focuses its assessment of capital adequacy on a component of Tier 1 capital known as Common Equity Tier 1. Because the Federal Reserve has long indicated that voting common shareholders’ equity (essentially Tier 1 risk-based capital less preferred stock and noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries) generally should be the dominant element in Tier 1 risk-based capital, this focus on Common Equity Tier 1 is consistent with existing capital adequacy categories. The Regulatory Capital Rules, described in more detail under the section “Supervision and Regulation” in Item 2 of this report, also make Common Equity Tier 1 a priority. The Regulatory Capital Rules change the regulatory capital standards that apply to BHCs by, among other changes, phasing out the treatment of trust preferred securities and cumulative preferred securities as Tier 1 eligible capital. Starting in 2016, our trust preferred securities are only included in Tier 2 capital. Since analysts and banking regulators may assess our capital adequacy using tangible common equity and Common Equity Tier 1, we believe it is useful to enable
investors to assess our capital adequacy on these same bases. Figure 6 reconciles the GAAP performance measures to the corresponding non-GAAP measures.
As disclosed in Note 2 (“Business Combination”) and Note 12 (“Acquisition, Divestiture, and Discontinued Operations”), KeyCorp completed its purchase of First Niagara on August 1, 2016. The definitive agreement and plan of merger to acquire First Niagara was originally announced on October 30, 2015. As a result of this transaction, we’ve recognized merger-related charges. Figure 6 shows the computation of pre provision net revenue excluding notable items and return on average assets from continuing operations excluding notable items. For the second quarter of 2017, merger-related charges are included in the total for “notable items,” the detail of which is provided in Figure 6. We believe that eliminating the effects of the notable items makes it easier to analyze our results by presenting them on a more comparable basis with our prior results.
The cash efficiency ratio is a ratio of two non-GAAP performance measures. Accordingly, there is no directly comparable GAAP performance measure. The cash efficiency ratio excludes the impact of our intangible asset amortization from the calculation. We also disclose the cash efficiency ratio excluding notable items. We believe these ratios provide greater consistency and comparability between our results and those of our peer banks. Additionally, these ratios are used by analysts and investors as they develop earnings forecasts and peer bank analysis.
Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied, and are not audited. Although these non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by investors to evaluate a company, they have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation, nor as a substitute for analyses of results as reported under GAAP.

Results of Operations
Net interest income
One of our principal sources of revenue is net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between interest income received on earning assets (such as loans and securities) and loan-related fee income, and interest expense paid on deposits and borrowings. There are several factors that affect net interest income, including:
| |
• | the volume, pricing, mix, and maturity of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities; |
| |
• | the volume and value of net free funds, such as noninterest-bearing deposits and equity capital; |
| |
• | the use of derivative instruments to manage interest rate risk; |
| |
• | interest rate fluctuations and competitive conditions within the marketplace; and |
To make it easier to compare both the results across several periods and the yields on various types of earning assets (some taxable, some not), we present net interest income in this discussion on a “taxable-equivalent basis” (i.e., as if all income were taxable and at the same rate). For example, $100 of tax-exempt income would be presented as $154, an amount that, if taxed at the statutory federal income tax rate of 35%, would yield $100.
Figure 7 shows the various components of our balance sheet that affect interest income and expense, and their respective yields or rates over the past five quarters. This figure also presents a reconciliation of TE net interest income to net interest income reported in accordance with GAAP for each of those quarters. The net interest margin, which is an indicator of the profitability of the earning assets portfolio less cost of funding, is calculated by dividing annualized TE net interest income by average earning assets.
Second quarter 2017 net interest income included $100 million of purchase accounting accretion related to the acquisition of First Niagara, including $42 million related to the finalization of previous purchase accounting estimates. First quarter 2017 results included $53 million of purchase accounting accretion.
TE net interest income was $987 million for the second quarter of 2017, and the net interest margin was 3.30%, compared to TE net interest income of $605 million and a net interest margin of 2.76% for the second quarter of 2016, reflecting benefit from the First Niagara acquisition, including purchase accounting accretion, as well as higher earning asset yields and balances.
Compared to the first quarter of 2017, TE net interest income increased by $58 million, and the net interest margin increased by 17 basis points. The increase in net interest income and the net interest margin reflects an increase in purchase accounting accretion and higher earning asset yields, partly offset by a decline in loan fees and higher interest-bearing deposit costs, largely the result of an increase in commercial deposit rates and growth in higher-yielding deposit products. Net interest income also benefited from one additional day in the second quarter of 2017.
For the six months ended June 30, 2017, TE net interest income was $1.9 billion and the net interest margin was 3.21%, compared to TE net interest income of $1.2 billion and a net interest margin of 2.83% for the prior year, reflecting the benefit from the First Niagara acquisition, growth in our core earning asset balances, and higher interest rates.
Average loans were $86.5 billion for the second quarter of 2017, an increase of $25.4 billion compared to the second quarter of 2016, primarily reflecting the impact of the First Niagara acquisition, as well as growth in commercial and industrial loans, which was broad-based and spread across our commercial lines of business. During the second quarter of 2017, Key finalized the fair value of the First Niagara acquired loan portfolio, adjusting the discount from $548 million to $603 million. At June 30, 2017, $345 million of the fair value discount remained.
Compared to the first quarter of 2017, average loans increased by $369 million. Commercial and industrial loans increased $664 million, with strength in middle market lending. Consumer loans decreased $110 million, mostly from continued declines in the home equity loan portfolio, largely the result of paydowns on home equity lines of credit.
Average deposits totaled $102.8 billion for the second quarter of 2017, an increase of $28.9 billion compared to the year-ago quarter, primarily reflecting the acquisition of First Niagara and core retail and commercial deposit growth.
Compared to the first quarter of 2017, average deposits increased by $701 million, driven by growth in certificates of deposits and NOW and money market deposit accounts, partly offset by a decline in escrow deposits. During the quarter, Key also experienced a shift in deposit mix from noninterest-bearing and low-cost interest-bearing deposits to higher-yielding deposit
products. On a period end basis, total deposits decreased $1.1 billion compared to the linked-quarter, largely the result of seasonal deposit growth that occurred in the first quarter of 2017.
