“Our results and financial position reflect our conservative orientation toward growth, credit risk and capital management as we position Discover to weather the economic downturn,” said David Nelms, chief executive officer of Discover Financial Services. “As part of our capital management, we are seeking to participate in the Treasury’s Capital Purchase Program which will further support our consumer lending operations.”
1
Settlement of Antitrust Litigation
On October 27, 2008 Discover reached a $2.75 billion settlement of its antitrust lawsuit with Visa and MasterCard. Discover received an $863 million payment in November 2008, and expects to receive the remaining proceeds in equal $472 million installments over the four quarters of 2009. The proceeds will be reflected as revenue in Discover’s U.S. Card segment in the period earned.
At the time of the spin-off of the company, Morgan Stanley and Discover entered into an agreement governing the manner in which the antitrust case was to be pursued and settled and how proceeds of the litigation were to be shared. The company has notified Morgan Stanley that it breached the agreement and the amount of the dividend to Morgan Stanley, if any, is a matter of dispute.
Liquidity and Capital
The company continues to maintain liquidity and capital positions that it believes are appropriate for the current environment. Cash liquidity was $9.4 billion and tangible equity was $5.5 billion, or 11.0% of net managed receivables, at November 30, 2008. The company applied to the U.S. Treasury to participate in the Capital Purchase Program and to the Federal Reserve to become a bank holding company.
Segment Results (Managed Basis):
U.S. Card
Managed loans grew to $51 billion, up 6% from last year and 1% from last quarter as decreased consumer spending and balance transfer activity were offset by lower cardmember payments and growth in installment loans. Sales volume decreased 2% versus fourth quarter of 2007, and increased 2% on a full year basis.
Credit performance of the Card portfolio was consistent with Discover’s expectation as charge-offs rose, reflecting the deteriorating economic environment. The managed over 30 days delinquency rate of 4.56% was up 71 basis points from the third quarter of 2008, and 98 basis points from last year. The managed net charge-off rate increased to 5.48% for the fourth quarter of 2008, up 28 and 163 basis points, respectively, from last quarter and last year. The full year net charge-off rate was 5.01% up 118 basis points from last year. Based on current trends within the portfolio and in the economic environment, the company believes that the managed net charge-off rate in the first quarter of 2009 will exceed 6%.
2
Fourth Quarter
Pretax income was $646 million in the fourth quarter of 2008, including other income of $863 million related to proceeds from the antitrust settlement. Pretax income was $321 million for the fourth quarter of 2007.
Managed net interest income increased $162 million, or 18%, an improvement of 79 basis points over fourth quarter of 2007. Higher net interest income benefited from lower cost of funds, growth in loan balances and accretion of balance transfer fees previously included in loan fee revenue, partially offset by higher interest charge-offs.
Provision for loan losses increased $521 million, or 89%, due to higher net charge-offs and an increase in loan loss reserves in excess of charge-offs in the quarter. The reserve increase in excess of charge-offs of $415 million resulted from a higher reserve rate as well as higher on-balance sheet loans due to maturing securitizations.
Other income increased $630 million, reflecting the antitrust settlement partially offset by a reduction in the fair value of the interest-only strip receivable. The decline in the fair value of the interest-only strip receivable was due to no securitization gains in the fourth quarter as the company did not enter into new securitization transactions, along with higher anticipated charge-offs in the current environment.
Expenses decreased $54 million, or 9%, primarily attributable to lower compensation and marketing expense partially offset by increased professional fees. Compensation expense included a $39 million one-time benefit due to curtailment of the company’s pension plan. Marketing declined due to lower account acquisition and balance transfer volume as well as lower advertising costs.
Full Year
Pretax income was $1.6 billion in 2008, including other income of $863 million related to the antitrust settlement. Pretax income was $1.5 billion for 2007.
Managed net interest income increased $551 million, or 15%, an improvement of 79 basis points over 2007, reflecting an increase in interest income and a decrease in interest expense. Interest income benefited from growth in loan balances and the transfer of balance transfer fees to interest income, partially offset by higher interest charge-offs and lower investment income. Interest expense decreased reflecting a lower cost of funds, partially offset by higher borrowings to fund higher loan balances.
Provision for loan losses increased $1.2 billion, or 66%, due to higher net charge-offs and an increase in loan loss reserves in excess of charge-offs during the year. The reserve increase in excess of charge-offs of $615 million resulted from a higher reserve rate as well as higher on-balance sheet loans due to maturing securitizations.
3
Other income increased $673 million reflecting the antitrust settlement and higher discount and interchange revenue, partially offset by a write-down of the interest-only strip receivable and the transfer of balance transfer fees to interest income. Discount and interchange revenue benefited from growth in sales volume.
Expenses decreased $79 million, or 3%, primarily attributable to the pension curtailment benefit; lower account acquisition and promotional marketing activity; and a decrease in costs related to litigation.
Third-Party Payments
Fourth Quarter
The Third-Party Payments segment transaction volume was $34 billion, up 39% from last year, reflecting the addition of Diners Club International volume of $7 billion, as well as increased volumes on the PULSE and Discover networks.
Pretax income of $21 million was up $13 million from the fourth quarter of 2007. Diners Club International contributed $4 million to the segment’s pretax income. Revenue increased $24 million due to increased volumes and fee revenues, as well as a $15 million contribution from Diners Club International. Expenses increased $11 million due to the inclusion of Diners Club International.
Full Year
The Third-Party Payments segment transaction volume was a record $125 billion, up 36% from last year, reflecting the addition of Diners Club International volume of $13 billion, as well as increased volumes on the PULSE and Discover networks.
Pretax income of $81 million was up $44 million from 2007 including $11 million related to Diners Club International, which was acquired in June 2008. Revenue increased $61 million due to increased volumes and fee revenues as well as a $28 million contribution from Diners Club International. Expenses increased $17 million due to the inclusion of Diners Club International.
Discontinued Operations
Discontinued operations represent the company’s Goldfish business in the United Kingdom, which was sold to Barclays Bank PLC on March 31, 2008. In the fourth quarter of 2008, the company recognized a loss from discontinued operations, net of tax, of $12 million versus a loss of $266 million in the fourth quarter of 2007. The fourth quarter of 2007 included an impairment charge to write down goodwill and intangibles to fair value of $279 million, after-tax.

Dividend Declaration/Stock Repurchase Program
The company’s board declared a cash dividend of $.06 per share, payable on Jan. 22, 2009, to stockholders of record at the close of business on Jan. 2, 2009. No stock repurchases were conducted under the stock repurchase program during the fourth quarter.

1 Securitization Adjustments present the effect of loan securitization by recharacterizing as securitization income the portions of the following items that relate to the securitized loans: interest income, interest expense, provision for loan losses, discount and interchange revenue and loan fee revenues. |
Securitization income is reported in other income. |
The data is presented on both a "managed" loan basis and as reported under generally accepted accounting principles ("owned" loan basis). Managed loan data assume that the company's securitized loan receivables have not been sold and presents the results of securitized loan receivables in the same manner as the company's owned loans. The company operates its business and analyzes its financial performance on a managed basis. Accordingly, underwriting and servicing standards are comparable for both owned and securitized loans. The company believes that managed loan information is useful to investors because it provides information regarding the quality of loan origination and credit performance of the entire managed portfolio and allows investors to understand the related credit risks inherent in owned loans and retained interests in securitizations. Managed loan data is also relevant because the company services the securitized and owned loans, and the related accounts, in the same manner without regard to ownership of the loans. In addition, investors often request information on a managed basis which provides a more meaningful comparison to industry competitors. |
