BOOK VALUE PER SHARE OF $70.85 TANGIBLE BOOK VALUE PER SHARE OF $60.408

Citigroup Inc. today reported a net loss for the fourth quarter 2017 of $18.3 billion, or $7.15 per diluted share, on revenues of $17.3 billion. This compared to net income of $3.6 billion, or $1.14 per diluted share, on revenues of $17.0 billion for the fourth quarter 2016.

The net loss of $18.3 billion, or $7.15 per share, included an estimated one-time, non-cash charge of $22 billion, or $8.43 per share, recorded in the tax line within Corporate / Other, related to the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (Tax Reform)7. This charge is comprised of $19 billion related to the re-measurement of Citi’s deferred tax assets (DTA) arising from a lower U.S. corporate tax rate and shift to a territorial tax regime, and $3 billion related to the deemed repatriation of unremitted earnings of foreign subsidiaries. Excluding the impact of Tax Reform, net income of $3.7 billion increased 4% from the prior year period. Earnings per share increased 12% to $1.28, driven by the higher net income and a 7% reduction in average diluted shares outstanding. These results include a combined net benefit of roughly $0.08 per share, recorded in Corporate / Other, related to discrete items that resulted in a lower-than-expected tax rate, as well as a one-time loss in discontinued operations.

Citi CEO Michael Corbat said, “While our fourth quarter results reflected the impact of a significant non-cash charge due to tax reform, the impact on our regulatory capital was much less significant. Tax reform does not change our capital return goals as we remain committed to returning at least $60 billion of capital in the current and next two CCAR cycles, subject to regulatory approval. Tax reform not only leads to higher net income and increased returns, but also serves to strengthen our capital generation capabilities going forward.

“We closed this important year with strong operating earnings of $3.7 billion in the fourth quarter, or $1.28 per share. We grew loans across both our Consumer and Institutional franchises and we continue to see good progress across those products and geographies where we have been investing.

“On an operating basis for the full year, we earned $15.8 billion in net income, which was nearly $1 billion more than 2016. And our earnings per share were $5.33, up 13% from 2016. We also made solid progress towards the targets we introduced during Investor Day in July. Revenue growth and strong expense management brought us to a full year Efficiency Ratio of 57.7%, an improvement of over 150 basis points from 2016. And our Return on Tangible Common Equity including and excluding DTA increased to 8.1% and 9.6%, respectively,” Mr. Corbat concluded.

For the full year 2017, Citigroup reported a net loss of $6.2 billion on revenues of $71.4 billion, compared to net income of $14.9 billion on revenues of $69.9 billion for the full year 2016. Excluding the impact of Tax Reform, Citigroup net income of $15.8 billion increased 6% compared to the prior year.

Throughout the remainder of this press release, Citigroup and Corporate / Other’s net income and Citigroup’s effective tax rate are presented on a reported and adjusted basis, excluding the impact of Tax Reform. For additional information on this adjustment as well as other non-GAAP financial measures used in this release, see the Appendices and Footnotes to this release. Percentage comparisons are calculated for the fourth quarter 2017 versus the fourth quarter 2016, unless otherwise specified.

Citigroup

Citigroup revenues of $17.3 billion in the fourth quarter 2017 increased 1%, driven by 2% aggregate growth in Global Consumer Banking (GCB) and Institutional Clients Group (ICG), partially offset by a 13% decrease in Corporate / Other, primarily due to the continued wind-down of legacy assets.

Citigroup’s operating expenses remained largely unchanged at $10.1 billion in the fourth quarter 2017, as higher volume-related expenses and ongoing investments were offset by efficiency savings and the wind-down of legacy assets.

Citigroup’s cost of credit in the fourth quarter 2017 was $2.1 billion, a 16% increase, driven by an increase in net credit losses of $184 million, primarily due to volume growth and seasoning in cards and an episodic charge-off in ICG, as well as a higher loan loss reserve build.

Citigroup’s net loss of $18.3 billion in the fourth quarter 2017, compared to net income of $3.6 billion in the prior year period, primarily reflected the impact of Tax Reform. Excluding the impact of Tax Reform, Citigroup’s net income increased to $3.7 billion, as the higher revenues and the lower tax rate more than offset the higher cost of credit and the one-time loss in discontinued operations. Including the impact of Tax Reform, Citigroup’s effective tax rate in the fourth quarter 2017 was not meaningful. Excluding the impact of Tax Reform, Citigroup’s effective tax rate in the fourth quarter 2017 was 24.9% compared to 29.6% in the fourth quarter 2016.

Citigroup’s allowance for loan losses was $12.4 billion at quarter end, or 1.87% of total loans, compared to $12.1 billion, or 1.94% of total loans, at the end of the prior year period. Total non-accrual assets declined 17% from the prior year period to $4.8 billion. Consumer non-accrual loans declined 15% to $2.7 billion and corporate non-accrual loans decreased 20% to $1.9 billion.

Citigroup’s end of period loans were $667 billion as of quarter end, up 7% from the prior year period. Excluding the impact of foreign exchange translation9, Citigroup’s end of period loans grew 5%, as 7% aggregate growth in ICG and GCB was partially offset by the continued wind down of legacy assets in Corporate / Other.

Citigroup’s end of period deposits were $960 billion as of quarter end, up 3%. In constant dollars, Citigroup deposits were up 1%, as a 2% increase in ICG was slightly offset by a decline in Corporate / Other, and GCB remained largely unchanged.

Citigroup’s book value per share was $70.85 and tangible book value per share was $60.40, each at quarter end, representing 5% and 6% decreases, respectively, primarily reflecting the estimated impact of Tax Reform. At quarter end, Citigroup’s Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) Capital ratio was 12.3%, down from 13.0% sequentially, driven primarily by the return of capital to common shareholders and the impact of Tax Reform (a reduction of approximately $6 billion of CET1 Capital or 40 bps to the CET1 Capital ratio). Citigroup’s Supplementary Leverage Ratio for the fourth quarter 2017 was 6.7%, down from 7.1% sequentially, driven by a decrease in Tier 1 Capital as well as an increase in Total Leverage Exposure. During the fourth quarter 2017, Citigroup repurchased 74 million common shares and returned a total of $6.3 billion to common shareholders in the form of common share repurchases and dividends.

Citi retail services revenues of $1.6 billion increased 2%, primarily reflecting continued loan growth. Citi-branded cards revenues of $2.2 billion increased 1%, as growth in interest-earning balances slightly outpaced the continued run-off of non-core portfolios as well as the higher cost to fund growth in transactor and promotional balances, given higher interest rates.

North America GCB net income was $842 million, up 4%, as the higher revenues and a lower tax rate were partially offset by higher cost of credit. Operating expenses remained largely unchanged at $2.5 billion, as higher volume-related expenses and investments were offset by efficiency savings.

North America GCB cost of credit increased 10% to $1.3 billion. Net credit losses of $1.2 billion increased 7%, reflecting volume growth and seasoning.

Corporate / Other

Corporate / Other revenues of $746 million decreased 13% from the prior year period, driven by the wind-down of legacy assets. As of the end of the fourth quarter 2017, Corporate / Other assets were $75 billion, 27% below the prior year period, primarily reflecting the continued wind-down of legacy assets.

Corporate / Other’s net loss of $21.8 billion, compared to a net loss of $20 million in the prior year period, primarily reflected the impact of Tax Reform. On an adjusted basis, Corporate / Other net income increased to $163 million, compared to a net loss of $20 million, driven primarily by episodic tax items which, combined with lower expenses, more than offset the lower revenues and the one-time loss in discontinued operations. Corporate / Other operating expenses declined 24% to $857 million, reflecting the wind-down of legacy assets and lower legal expenses.

______________________________

1 Citigroup’s total expenses divided by total revenues.

2 Preliminary. Citigroup’s adjusted ROE is a non-GAAP financial measure and excludes the estimated impact of Tax Reform from net income and average common equity. Citigroup’s reported ROE for the fourth quarter of 2017 was (36.3)% and therefore not meaningful. For the components of the calculation, see Appendix A. For additional information, see Footnote 7.

3 Preliminary. Citigroup’s adjusted return on average tangible common equity (RoTCE) and adjusted RoTCE excluding deferred tax assets (DTAs) are non-GAAP financial measures and exclude the estimated impact of Tax Reform from net income and average tangible common equity (TCE). RoTCE represents annualized net income available to common shareholders as a percentage of average TCE. The amount that is excluded from adjusted average TCE represents the average net DTAs excluded for purposes of calculating Citigroup’s Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) Capital under full implementation of the U.S Basel III rules. For the components of the calculation, see Appendix A. For additional information, see Footnote 7.

4 Preliminary. Citigroup’s CET1 Capital ratio, which reflects full implementation of the U.S. Basel III rules, is a non-GAAP financial measure. For the composition of Citigroup’s CET1 Capital and ratio, see Appendix C.

5 Preliminary. Citigroup's Supplementary Leverage Ratio (SLR), which reflects full implementation of the U.S. Basel III rules, is a non-GAAP financial measure. For the composition of Citigroup’s SLR, see Appendix D.

6 Citigroup’s adjusted payout ratio, a non-GAAP financial measure, is the sum of common dividends and common share repurchases divided by net income available to common shareholders excluding the estimated impact of Tax Reform. For the components of the calculation, see Appendix A. For additional information, see Footnote 7.

7 Preliminary. Represents the estimated fourth quarter 2017 and full year 2017 impact of the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (Tax Reform), which was signed into law on December 22, 2017. The final impact of Tax Reform may differ from these estimates, due to, among other things, changes in interpretations and assumptions made by Citigroup, additional guidance that may be issued by the U.S. Department of the Treasury, and actions that Citigroup may take. For the components of the calculation, see Appendix A.

8 Preliminary. Citigroup’s tangible book value per share is a non-GAAP financial measure. For a reconciliation of this measure to reported results, see Appendix E.

9 Results of operations excluding the impact of foreign exchange translation (constant dollar basis) are non-GAAP financial measures. For a reconciliation of these measures to reported results, see Appendix B.

10 Credit derivatives are used to economically hedge a portion of the corporate loan portfolio that includes both accrual loans and loans at fair value. Gains / (losses) on loan hedges includes the mark-to-market on the credit derivatives and the mark-to-market on the loans in the portfolio that are at fair value. The fixed premium costs of these hedges are netted against the corporate lending revenues to reflect the cost of credit protection. Citigroup’s results of operations excluding the impact of gains / (losses) on loan hedges are non-GAAP financial measures.
