Sallie Mae Reports Third-Quarter 2016 Financial Results
Private Education Loan Originations Increase 7 Percent From Year-Ago Quarter to $1.8
Billion
Private Education Loan Portfolio Grows 27 Percent From Year-Ago Quarter to $13.7 Billion
Net Interest Income Increases 27 Percent From Year-Ago Quarter to $223 Million
Diluted Earnings Per Share Up 33 Percent From Year-Ago Quarter to $0.12
Sallie Mae (NASDAQ: SLM), formally SLM Corporation, today released third-quarter 2016 financial results that include marked
growth in originations, portfolio size, net interest income, and diluted earnings per share. In the third-quarter 2016, the
company’s private education loan originations increased 7 percent to $1.8 billion, private education loan portfolio grew 27 percent
to $13.7 billion, and net interest income increased 27 percent to $223 million, as compared to the year-ago quarter. The company
earned $0.12 per diluted share in the quarter, up 33 percent from the same period last year.
“We continue to do what we do best, which is to help students and families make college happen, and we’re doing it better than
ever, with all indicators moving in the right direction,” said Raymond J. Quinlan, chairman and CEO. “Our investments in people and
platforms have improved not only customer satisfaction, but also operating efficiency. Among this quarter’s many positives, I
am partial to our consistent credit metrics because, ultimately, credit quality illustrates our customers’ success and their
ability to effectively manage their finances.”
For the third-quarter 2016, GAAP net income was $57 million, compared with $46 million in the year-ago quarter. GAAP net income
attributable to the company’s common stock was $52 million ($0.12 diluted earnings per share) in the third-quarter 2016, compared
with $41 million ($0.09 diluted earnings per share) in the year-ago quarter. The year-over-year increase was primarily
attributable to a $48-million increase in net interest income and a $13-million increase in total non-interest income, which were
offset by a $14-million increase in provisions for credit losses, a $6-million increase in total non-interest expenses, and a
$29-million increase in income tax expense.
Third-quarter 2016 results vs. third-quarter 2015 included:
- Private education loan originations of $1.8 billion, up 7 percent.
- Net interest income of $223 million, up 27 percent.
- Net interest margin of 5.58 percent, up 22 basis points.
- Average private education loans outstanding of $12.9 billion, up 30 percent.
- Average yield on the private education loan portfolio of 8.00 percent, up 13 basis points.
- Private education loan provision for loan losses of $41 million, up from $27 million.
- Loans in forbearance were 3.04 percent of private education loans in repayment and forbearance, down
from 3.09 percent.
- Delinquencies as a percentage of private education loans in repayment were 2.04 percent, up from 1.91
percent.
Core earnings for the third-quarter 2016 were $56 million, compared with $47 million in the year-ago quarter. Core earnings
attributable to the company’s common stock were $51 million ($0.12 diluted earnings per share) in the third-quarter 2016, compared
with $42 million ($0.10 diluted earnings per share) in the year-ago quarter. Third-quarter 2016 GAAP results included $1
million of pre-tax gains from derivative accounting treatment that are excluded from core earnings results, vs. pre-tax losses of
$1 million in the year-ago period.
Sallie Mae provides core earnings because it is one of several measures used to evaluate management performance and allocate
corporate resources. The difference between core earnings and GAAP net income is driven by mark-to-market unrealized gains and
losses on derivative contracts recognized in GAAP, but not in core earnings, results. Management believes its derivatives are
effective economic hedges, and, as such, they are a critical element of the company’s interest rate risk management strategy.
Total Non-Interest Expenses
Total non-interest expenses were $100 million in the third-quarter 2016, compared with $94 million in the year-ago quarter
(which included $1 million of reorganization expenses). Operating expenses grew 7 percent from the year-ago quarter while the
non-GAAP operating efficiency ratio decreased to 40.6 percent in the third-quarter 2016, from 50.3 percent in the year-ago quarter,
primarily due to the continued leveraging of our fixed infrastructure as our portfolio grows, combined with operational
efficiencies that we are realizing as a result of investments made in 2015.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax increased to $47 million in the third-quarter 2016 from $18 million in the year-ago quarter. The effective income tax
rate increased in the third-quarter 2016 to 45.5 percent from 28.2 percent in the year-ago quarter. The prior-year quarter included
a benefit resulting from a release of reserves for uncertain tax positions related to a favorable state tax ruling. The effective
tax rate in the current quarter was higher because of an additional $9 million recorded related to uncertain tax positions and due
to an increase in state taxes. The uncertain tax positions contributing to the increase in our effective tax rate had no impact on
earnings per share, as we recorded the matching offset in other income. Managing our uncertain tax positions will add
volatility to our reported effective tax rate, but should not impact our expected cash tax liability.
Capital
The regulatory capital ratios of the company’s Sallie Mae Bank subsidiary continue to exceed guidelines for institutions
considered “well capitalized.” At Sept. 30, 2016, Sallie Mae Bank’s regulatory capital ratios were as follows:

This press release contains “forward-looking statements” and information based on management’s current expectations as of the
date of this release. Statements that are not historical facts, including statements about the company’s beliefs, opinions or
expectations and statements that assume or are dependent upon future events, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking
statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors that may cause actual results to be materially
different from those reflected in such forward-looking statements. These factors include, among others, the risks and uncertainties
set forth in Item 1A “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended Dec. 31,
2015 (filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on Feb. 26, 2016) and subsequent filings with the SEC; increases in
financing costs; limits on liquidity; increases in costs associated with compliance with laws and regulations; changes in
accounting standards and the impact of related changes in significant accounting estimates; any adverse outcomes in any significant
litigation to which the company is a party; credit risk associated with the company’s exposure to third parties, including
counterparties to the company’s derivative transactions; and changes in the terms of education loans and the educational credit
marketplace (including changes resulting from new laws and the implementation of existing laws). The company could also be affected
by, among other things: changes in its funding costs and availability; reductions to its credit ratings; failures or breaches of
its operating systems or infrastructure, including those of third-party vendors; damage to its reputation; failures to successfully
implement cost-cutting and restructuring initiatives and adverse effects of such initiatives on the company's business; risks
associated with restructuring initiatives; changes in the demand for educational financing or in financing preferences of lenders,
educational institutions, students and their families; changes in law and regulations with respect to the student lending business
and financial institutions generally; changes in banking rules and regulations, including increased capital requirements; increased
competition from banks and other consumer lenders; the creditworthiness of its customers; changes in the general interest rate
environment, including the rate relationships among relevant money-market instruments and those of its earning assets versus its
funding arrangements; rates of prepayments on the loans made by the company and its subsidiaries; changes in general economic
conditions and the company's ability to successfully effectuate any acquisitions; and other strategic initiatives. The preparation
of the company’s consolidated financial statements also requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions, including
estimates and assumptions about future events. These estimates or assumptions may prove to be incorrect. All forward-looking
statements contained in this release are qualified by these cautionary statements and are made only as of the date of this release.
The company does not undertake any obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements to conform such statements to
actual results or changes in its expectations.
The company reports financial results on a GAAP basis and also provides certain “Core Earnings” performance measures. The
difference between the company’s “Core Earnings” and GAAP results for the periods presented were the unrealized, mark-to-market
gains/losses on derivative contracts (excluding current period accruals on the derivative instruments), net of tax. These are
recognized in GAAP, but not in “Core Earnings” results. The company provides “Core Earnings” measures because this is what
management uses when making management decisions regarding the company’s performance and the allocation of corporate resources. The
company’s “Core Earnings” are not defined terms within GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by
other companies.
For additional information, see “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — GAAP
Consolidated Earnings Summary -‘Core Earnings’ ” in the company’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2016 for a further
discussion and the “‘Core Earnings’ to GAAP Reconciliation” table in this press release for a complete reconciliation between GAAP
net income and “Core Earnings.”
The company reports a non-GAAP operating efficiency ratio. A GAAP-based operating efficiency ratio would compare total
non-interest expenses to net revenue (which consists of net interest income, before provisions for credit losses, plus non-interest
income). Our operating efficiency ratio is a non-GAAP measure because we adjust (a) the non-interest expense numerator by deducting
restructuring and other reorganization expenses, and (b) the net revenue denominator by deducting gains on sales of loans, net. We
believe doing so provides useful information to investors because it is a measure used by our management team to monitor our
effectiveness in managing operating expenses. Other companies may use similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures that are
calculated differently from the way we calculate our ratio. Accordingly, our non-GAAP operating efficiency ratio may not be
comparable to similar measures used by other companies.

______ |
(1) Derivative Accounting: “Core Earnings” exclude periodic unrealized gains and
losses caused by the mark-to-market valuations on derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment under GAAP, as
well as the periodic unrealized gains and losses that are a result of ineffectiveness recognized related to effective hedges
under GAAP. Under GAAP, for our derivatives held to maturity, the cumulative net unrealized gain or loss over the life of the
contract will equal $0. |
|
(2) “Core Earnings” tax rate is based on the effective tax rate at the Bank where the
derivative instruments are held. |
