7. Earnings Quality and Accounting Issues
Income and Expense Recognition
• Income
- Interest income: revenue earned on interest-earnings asset like
loans and investment securities
- Non-interest income :fees and commissions from continuing
operations other than issuing loans
• Expense
- Interest expense: expense paid on interest-bearing liabilities,
principally deposits and borrowings
- Noninterest expense: salaries and employee benefits, occupancy
cost and FDIC insurance
8. Earnings Quality and Accounting Issues
• Provision for Loan Losses
- reflect management’s judgment of probable credit losses
inherent in the portfolio, and will adversely affect the bank’s income
- Regions and PNC earnings growth is driven by the huge decrease in provisions
for loan losses rather than core business operations growth
9. Earnings Quality and Accounting Issues
• Discontinued Operations:
- Regions bank agreed to sell its non-banking subsidiary Morgan
Keegan to Raymond James Financial, resulting in a non-cash goodwill
impairment recorded in the loss from discontinued operations in 2011,
while there was no major disposition for PNC in 2011
- One-time charge and should be eliminated
