This Financial Review should be read in conjunction with The PNC Financial
Services Group, Inc. and subsidiaries' ("Corporation" or "PNC") Consolidated
Financial Statements and Statistical Information included herein. For
information regarding business risks, see the Risk Management and Risk Factors
sections in this Financial Review. Also, see the Forward-Looking Statements
section in this Financial Review for other factors that could cause actual
results to differ materially from forward-looking statements or historical
performance.
OVERVIEW
THE PNC FINANCIAL SERVICES GROUP, INC.
The Corporation is one of the largest diversified financial services companies
in the United States, operating community banking, corporate banking, real
estate finance, asset-based lending, wealth management, asset management and
global fund services businesses. The Corporation provides certain products and
services nationally and others in PNC's primary geographic markets in
Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Ohio and Kentucky. The Corporation also
provides certain products and services internationally.
Financial services organizations today are challenged to demonstrate that
they can generate sustainable and consistent earnings growth in an increasingly
competitive and volatile environment. PNC has responded to these challenges by
aggressively pursuing strategies designed to achieve more consistent results.
These strategies include repositioning leverage-based businesses and improving
the earnings stream by building a diverse group of higher-valuation businesses.
Increasing contributions from growth businesses, including asset management and
processing and the fee-based segments within PNC's banking franchise, have
strengthened the Corporation's revenue and earnings mix. In addition, the
Corporation seeks to enhance consolidated value by leveraging technology,
information, branding, marketing and financial resources across all businesses.
As a result of these strategies, PNC's financial characteristics have
changed significantly over the past five years. Noninterest income grew 23%
annualized during this time period while net interest income decreased by
approximately $300 million and total assets declined by $3.4 billion.
Noninterest income to total revenue increased from 36% in 1996 to 59% in 2000.
The loan to deposit ratio improved from 113% to 106% as a result of exiting
lower-return lending businesses, while growing the deposit franchise. Over this
period, return on average common shareholders' equity improved from 17% to 22%.
As part of this transition, the Corporation implemented a number of
initiatives designed to improve the risk/return characteristics of its lending
businesses. These included the sale of the credit card business and exiting or
downsizing certain non-strategic lending businesses.
On October 2, 2000, PNC announced that it reached a definitive agreement to
sell its residential mortgage banking business. The capital made available by
the sale will be redeployed in a number of ways, which may include repurchasing
common stock, continuing to reduce balance sheet leverage, reducing debt and
making targeted investments in higher-growth businesses. The amount of capital
available for redeployment and the income statement impact of the sale will
depend on fair market values and other factors, and will not be determined until
final settlement. The transaction closed on January 31, 2001.
PNC also expanded its fee-based services by acquiring Investor Services
Group ("ISG") in December 1999. The combination of ISG with PFPC, the
Corporation's global fund services subsidiary, created one of the nation's
leading full-service processors for pooled investment products.
Other strategic acquisitions during 2000 included Automated Business
Development Corp. ("ABD"), the leading provider of blue sky compliance services
to the mutual fund industry, Univest Financial Group LLC ("Univest"), a
privately held provider of technology and data management services to the
commercial real estate finance industry, and the origination and servicing
business of U.B. Vehicle Leasing Inc.
SUMMARY FINANCIAL RESULTS
Consolidated net income for 2000 was $1.279 billion or $4.31 per diluted share,
a 10% increase compared with core earnings per diluted share for 1999. Return on
average common shareholders' equity was 21.63% and return on average assets was
1.68% for 2000 compared with core returns of 21.24% and 1.60%, respectively, a
year ago. Cash earnings per diluted share, which exclude goodwill amortization,
were $4.70 for 2000, a 12% increase compared with core cash earnings per diluted
share a year ago. Core earnings for the prior year exclude one-time gains that
were partially offset by the cost of certain strategic initiatives. Reported
earnings for 1999 were $1.264 billion or $4.15 per diluted share.
The residential mortgage banking business is reflected in discontinued
operations throughout the Corporation's consolidated financial statements.
Accordingly, the earnings and net assets of the residential mortgage banking
business are shown separately on one line in the income statement and balance
sheet, respectively, for all periods presented.

The remainder of the discussion and information in this Financial Review
reflects continuing operations, unless otherwise noted.
Earnings from continuing operations for 2000 of $1.214 billion or $4.09
per diluted share increased 10% compared with core earnings per diluted share
for 1999.
Taxable-equivalent net interest income was $2.182 billion for 2000, a $184
million decrease compared with 1999. The net interest margin was 3.64% for 2000
compared with 3.86% for 1999. The decreases were primarily due to funding costs
related to the ISG acquisition, changes in balance sheet composition and a
higher interest rate environment in 2000.
The provision for credit losses was $136 million for 2000 and net
charge-offs were $135 million or .27% of average loans. The provision for credit
losses was $163 million and net charge-offs were $161 million or .31% of average
loans in 1999. The decreases were primarily due to the sale of the credit card
business in the first quarter of 1999, partially offset by higher commercial net
charge-offs in 2000.
Noninterest income of $2.891 billion for 2000 increased 28% compared with
1999, excluding non-core items from the prior year, and represented 57% of total
revenue. The increase was primarily driven by strong growth in certain fee-based
businesses, the impact of the ISG acquisition and higher equity management
income. Excluding ISG, noninterest income increased 13% compared with the prior
year.
Noninterest expense was $3.071 billion and the efficiency ratio was 57% in
2000 compared with $2.703 billion and 55%, respectively, in 1999, excluding
non-core items. The increases were primarily due to the ISG acquisition.
Excluding ISG, noninterest expense increased 2% compared with the prior year.
Total assets were $69.8 billion at December 31, 2000 compared with $69.3
billion at December 31, 1999. Average earning assets were $59.9 billion for 2000
compared with $61.3 billion for 1999. Average earning assets declined primarily
due to a decrease in loans that resulted from the downsizing and exiting of
certain non-strategic lending businesses.
Shareholders' equity totaled $6.7 billion at December 31, 2000. The
regulatory capital ratios were 8.03% for leverage, 8.60% for tier I risk-based
and 12.57% for total risk-based capital. During 2000, PNC repurchased 6.7
million shares of common stock.
The ratio of nonperforming assets to total loans, loans held for sale and
foreclosed assets was .71% at December 31, 2000 compared with .61% at December
31, 1999. Nonperforming assets were $372 million at December 31, 2000 compared
with $325 million at December 31, 1999. The increase was primarily due to higher
commercial nonperforming loans partially offset by lower commercial real estate
and residential mortgage nonperforming loans.
The allowance for credit losses was $675 million and represented 1.33% of
total loans and 209% of nonaccrual loans at December 31, 2000. The comparable
ratios were 1.36% and 232%, respectively, at December 31, 1999.
REVIEW OF BUSINESSES
PNC operates seven major businesses engaged in community banking, corporate
banking, real estate finance, asset-based lending, wealth management, asset
management and global fund services: Community Banking, Corporate Banking, PNC
Real Estate Finance, PNC Business Credit, PNC Advisors, BlackRock and PFPC.
Business results are presented based on PNC's management accounting
practices and the Corporation's management structure. There is no comprehensive,
authoritative body of guidance for management accounting equivalent to generally
accepted accounting principles; therefore, PNC's business results are not
necessarily comparable with similar information for any other financial services
institution. Financial results are presented, to the extent practicable, as if
each business operated on a stand-alone basis.
35 |
The presentation of business results was changed to reflect the
Corporation's operating structure during 2000. Middle market and equipment
leasing activities (previously included in Community Banking) are reported in
Corporate Banking. In addition, PNC Real Estate Finance and PNC Business Credit
are reported separately within PNC Secured Finance. Regional real estate lending
activities (previously included in Community Banking) are reported in PNC Real
Estate Finance. Business financial results for 2000 and 1999 are presented
consistent with this structure.
The management accounting process uses various balance sheet and income
statement assignments and transfers to measure performance of the businesses.
Methodologies change from time to time as management accounting practices are
enhanced and businesses change. Securities or borrowings and related net
interest income are assigned based on the net asset or liability position of
each business. Capital is assigned based on management's assessment of inherent
risks and equity levels at independent companies providing similar products and
services. The allowance for credit losses is allocated to the businesses based
on management's assessment of risk inherent in the loan portfolios. Support
areas not directly aligned with the businesses are allocated primarily based on
the utilization of services.
Total business financial results differ from consolidated results from
continuing operations primarily due to differences between management accounting
practices and generally accepted accounting principles, divested and exited
businesses, equity management activities, minority interests, residual asset and
liability management activities, eliminations and unassigned items, the impact
of which is reflected in the "Other" category. The results of the residential
mortgage banking business, previously PNC Mortgage, are included in results from
discontinued operations.

Community Banking provides deposit, branch-based brokerage, electronic banking
and credit products and services to retail customers as well as credit, treasury
management and capital markets products and services to small businesses
primarily within PNC's geographic region.
Community Banking's strategic focus is on driving sustainable revenue
growth while aggressively managing the revenue/expense relationship. Community
Banking utilizes knowledge-based marketing capabilities to analyze customer
demographic information, transaction patterns and delivery preferences to
develop customized banking packages focused on improving customer satisfaction
and profitability.
Community Banking has also invested heavily in building a sales culture and
infrastructure while improving efficiency. Capital investments have been
strategically directed towards the expansion of multi-channel distribution,
consistent with customer preferences, as well as the delivery of relevant
customer information to all distribution channels.
Community Banking contributed 46% of total business earnings for 2000
compared with 48% for 1999. Earnings increased $47 million or 9% to $590 million
for 2000 and the noninterest income to total revenue and efficiency ratios
improved. Excluding the impact of downsizing the indirect automobile lending
portfolio and the sale of certain branches in the third quarter of 1999,
earnings increased 11% in the comparison.
Total revenue was $2.033 billion for 2000 compared with $1.968 billion for
1999. The increase was primarily due to a $69 million or 13% increase in
noninterest income that was driven by higher consumer transaction volume.
The provision for credit losses for 2000 decreased $16 million or 26%
compared with the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to lower net
charge-offs related to the downsizing of the indirect automobile lending
portfolio.
Consumer loans declined in the comparison primarily due to the continued
downsizing of the indirect automobile lending portfolio and the decision to sell
education loans in repayment, which are included in loans held for sale. There
was a shift from noninterest-bearing demand deposits to interest-bearing demand
deposits due to strategies designed to increase customer satisfaction and
retention. Money market deposits increased $1.3 billion or 14% primarily due to
successful consumer marketing initiatives.

Corporate Banking provides credit, equipment leasing, treasury management and
capital markets products and services to large and mid-sized corporations,
institutions and government entities primarily within PNC's geographic region.
The strategic focus for Corporate Banking is to emphasize higher-margin
noncredit products and services, especially treasury management and capital
markets. Lending activities are focused primarily within PNC's geographic region
with consideration given to risk/return characteristics and are a complement to
sales of noncredit products and services. Loans are syndicated to meet the
credit needs of larger borrowers and to reduce and diversify credit exposure.
Approximately 40% of the total loan portfolio at December 31, 2000 was the
result of syndications.
Corporate Banking made the decision to exit certain non-strategic lending
businesses during 1999. These activities are excluded from business results in
both periods presented. Management continues to evaluate opportunities to reduce
lending exposure and improve the risk/return characteristics of this business,
including the downsizing of certain specialized industry portfolios.
Corporate Banking contributed 19% of total business earnings for 2000
compared with 21% for 1999. Earnings of $244 million for 2000 were comparable
with earnings of $246 million for 1999.
Total revenue of $839 million for 2000 increased $94 million or 13%
compared with the prior year. Average loans and credit-related revenue increased
in the period-to-period comparison primarily driven by loans to middle market
and large corporate customers that utilize higher-margin noncredit products and
services and the expansion of equipment leasing. Noncredit revenue includes
noninterest income and the benefit of compensating balances received in lieu of
fees. Noncredit revenue increased $60 million or 16% compared with 1999
primarily driven by increases in treasury management and capital markets fees
and income associated with equity investments. Noncredit revenue comprised 52%
of total revenue for 2000 compared with 50% last year, reflecting the emphasis
on sales of fee-based products.
The provision for credit losses was $79 million for 2000 compared with $16
million for 1999. The higher provision reflected an increase in net charge-offs
associated with the impact of a slowing economy primarily on the specialized
industry portfolios. The provision for credit losses for 2001 could increase
further if the economy continues to deteriorate or asset quality otherwise
declines. See Credit Risk in the Risk Management section of this Financial
Review for additional information regarding credit risk.
The increase in noninterest expense in the period-to-period comparison was
associated with growth in noncredit products and services.
Treasury management and capital markets products offered through Corporate
Banking are sold by several businesses across the Corporation and related
profitability is included in the results of those businesses. Consolidated
revenue from treasury management was $341 million for 2000, an 11% increase
compared with 1999. Consolidated revenue from capital markets was $133 million
for 2000, a 21% increase compared with 1999.

PNC Real Estate Finance provides credit, capital markets, treasury management,
commercial mortgage loan servicing and other products and services to
developers, owners and investors in commercial real estate. PNC's commercial
real estate financial services platform includes Midland Loan Services, Inc.
("Midland"), one of the largest national servicers of commercial mortgage loans,
and Columbia Housing Partners, LP, a national syndicator of affordable housing
equity, among other businesses.
On October 27, 2000, Midland acquired Univest, a privately held provider of
technology and data management services to the commercial real estate finance
industry. The combined company created one of the nation's leading providers of
Web-enabled loan servicing and asset administration solutions for commercial
real estate portfolio lenders, financial institutions and commercial
mortgage-backed securities.
Over the past three years, PNC Real Estate Finance has been strategically
shifting to a more balanced and valuable revenue stream by focusing on real
estate processing businesses, including commercial loan servicing. During 2000,
48% of total revenue was generated by fee-based activities.
PNC Real Estate Finance made the decision to exit the cyclical mortgage
warehouse lending business and certain non-strategic commercial real estate
portfolios at the end of 1999. These activities are excluded from business
results in both periods presented. Management continues to evaluate
opportunities to reduce lending exposure and improve the risk/return
characteristics of this business.
PNC Real Estate Finance contributed 6% of total business earnings for both
2000 and 1999. Earnings increased $8 million or 11% in the year-to-year
comparison primarily due to growth in commercial mortgage servicing and the
affordable housing business. Average loans decreased 6% reflecting management's
strategy to reduce balance sheet leverage.
Total revenue was $220 million for 2000 compared with $212 million in the
prior year. Increases in treasury management and commercial mortgage servicing
fees were partially offset by lower commercial mortgage-backed securitization
gains.
The provision for credit losses positively impacted earnings in 2000 and
1999 due to net recoveries in both years. Management does not expect to be in a
net recovery position in 2001. See Credit Risk in the Risk Management section of
this Financial Review for additional information regarding credit risk.
Noninterest expense was $139 million and the efficiency ratio was 51% for
2000 compared with $126 million and 47%, respectively, in 1999. The increases
were primarily due to non-cash losses on affordable housing equity investments
and investments in technology to support the loan servicing platform. The
increase in non-cash losses on low income housing investments was more than
offset by related income tax credits.

PNC Business Credit provides asset-based lending, capital markets and treasury
management products and services to middle market customers on a national basis.
PNC Business Credit's lending services include loans secured by accounts
receivable, inventory, machinery and equipment, and other collateral, and its
customers include manufacturing, wholesale, distribution, retailing and service
industry companies.

offices in 13 states. PNC Business Credit continues to emphasize risk management
practices. In addition, a centralized back office is intended to provide
consistency to the control environment as well as cost efficiencies.
PNC Business Credit contributed 4% of total business earnings for 2000
compared with 3% for 1999. Earnings increased $20 million or 69% in the
year-to-year comparison to $49 million for 2000.
Revenue was $119 million for 2000, a $37 million or 45% increase compared
with 1999 primarily due to the impact of higher average loans associated with
business expansion.
Noninterest expense was $30 million and the efficiency ratio improved to
24% for 2000 compared with $25 million and 28%, respectively, in 1999. The
efficiency ratio improved in the comparison primarily due to economies of scale.
The return on assigned capital improved to 32% for 2000 due to strong revenue
growth and improved efficiency.
Management expects the provision for credit losses to increase in 2001
commensurate with a larger loan portfolio. See Credit Risk in the Risk
Management section of this Financial Review for additional information regarding
credit risk.

PNC Advisors provides a full range of tailored investment products and services
to affluent individuals and families including full-service brokerage through
J.J.B. Hilliard, W.L. Lyons, Inc. ("Hilliard Lyons") and investment advisory
services to the ultra-affluent through Hawthorn. PNC Advisors also serves as
investment manager and trustee for employee benefit plans and charitable and
endowment assets.
PNC Advisors strives to be the "financial advisor of choice" in the growing
high-net-worth market, providing a full range of high-quality, customized and
predominantly fee-based investment products and services. PNC Advisors continues
to expand Hilliard Lyons throughout the Corporation's geographic region, which
includes some of the nation's wealthiest metropolitan areas.
PNC Advisors contributed 14% of total business earnings for 2000 compared
with 13% for 1999. Earnings of $173 million for 2000 increased $26 million or
18% compared with last year.
Revenue increased $54 million or 7% in the year-to-year comparison despite
the impact of weak equity market conditions. The increase was primarily driven
by growth in brokerage revenue, resulting from the continued expansion of
Hilliard Lyons' distribution network and strong investment management sales.
Noninterest expense increased 3% in the year-to-year comparison primarily due to
effective expense management initiatives that resulted in improved operating
efficiency.

Personal assets under management decreased primarily due to the equity component
of customers' portfolios. The weak equity market in 2000 reduced assets under
management by approximately $3 billion. This decline was partially offset by new
customers' assets added during the year as a result of strong investment sales
activity.
Brokerage assets administered by PNC Advisors were $28 billion at December

technological resources on targeted Web-based initiatives and exploring
strategic alliances.
On December 1, 1999, PFPC acquired ISG, one of the nation's leading
providers of back-office services to mutual funds and retirement plans. The
acquisition added key related businesses, including retirement plan servicing,
to PFPC's expanding operations. The integration of ISG into PFPC continues as
planned and the acquisition was accretive to PNC's earnings in the fourth
quarter of 2000. During 2001, PFPC will continue to execute its ISG integration
strategy.
On May 31, 2000, PFPC completed the acquisition of ABD, the leading
provider of blue sky compliance services to the mutual fund industry.
PFPC contributed 4% of total business earnings for both 2000 and 1999.
Earnings increased $2 million in the year-to-year comparison primarily due to
the impact of the ISG acquisition. Excluding ISG, earnings increased 21% in the
period-to-period comparison. Cash earnings, which exclude goodwill amortization,
increased 81% to $87 million for 2000, including ISG.
Revenue of $690 million for 2000 increased $426 million compared with 1999.
The acquisition of ISG accounted for $406 million of the increase in revenue.
Excluding ISG, revenue increased 22% primarily driven by new and existing client
growth. Operating expense increased in the period-to-period comparison and
performance ratios were impacted as a result of the ISG acquisition. Excluding
ISG, noninterest expense increased 21% commensurate with fee-based revenue
growth.

NET INTEREST INCOME
Changes in net interest income and margin result from the interaction between
the volume and composition of earning assets, related yields and associated
funding costs. Accordingly, portfolio size, composition and yields earned and
funding costs can have a significant impact on net interest income and margin.
Taxable-equivalent net interest income was $2.182 billion for 2000, a $184
million decrease compared with 1999. The net interest margin was 3.64% for 2000
compared with 3.86% for 1999. The decreases were primarily due to funding costs
related to the ISG acquisition, changes in balance sheet composition and a
higher interest rate environment in 2000.

As a result of the sale of the credit card business and exiting or
downsizing certain non-strategic lending businesses, average loans decreased
$2.8 billion and represented 84% of average earning assets for 2000 compared
with 86% for the prior year. Average loans held for sale increased $1.1 billion
in the year-to-year comparison, reflecting the decisions to exit certain
non-strategic lending businesses and to sell student loans in repayment.
Funding cost is affected by the volume and composition of funding sources
as well as related rates paid thereon. Average deposits comprised 66% and 65% of
total sources of funds for 2000 and 1999, respectively, with the remainder
primarily comprised of wholesale funding obtained at prevailing market rates.
Average demand and money market deposits increased $1.8 billion or 11% to
$18.7 billion for 2000, primarily reflecting the impact of strategic marketing
initiatives to grow more valuable transaction accounts, while other time
deposits decreased in the period-to-period comparison. Average borrowed funds
for 2000 decreased $1.7 billion compared with 1999 as lower bank notes and
Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings more than offset increases in federal funds
purchased, subordinated debt and other borrowed funds. The overall decrease in
average borrowed funds was primarily due to the combined impact of deposit
growth and a stable level of total assets.
PROVISION FOR CREDIT LOSSES
The provision for credit losses was $136 million for 2000 compared with $163
million for 1999. Net charge-offs were $135 million or .27% of average loans for
2000 compared with $161 million or .31%, respectively, for 1999. The decreases
were primarily due to the sale of the credit card business in the first quarter
of 1999, partially offset by higher commercial net charge-offs in 2000. PNC's
provision for credit losses fully covered net charge-offs in both years. See
Credit Risk in the Risk Management section of this Financial Review for
additional information regarding credit risk.
NONINTEREST INCOME
Noninterest income was $2.891 billion for 2000 and represented 57% of total
revenue. On a comparable basis, noninterest income increased $640 million or 28%
compared with full year 1999, excluding the non-core items that are detailed in
the 1999 Versus 1998 section of this Financial Review. The increase was
primarily driven by growth in certain fee-based businesses, the benefit of the
ISG acquisition and higher equity management income. Excluding ISG, noninterest
income increased 13% compared with the prior year.
Asset management fees of $809 million for 2000 increased $128 million or
19% primarily driven by new business. Assets under management were $253 billion
at December 31, 2000, a 19% increase compared with December 31, 1999. Fund
servicing fees were $654 million for 2000, a $403 million increase compared with
the prior year primarily driven by the ISG acquisition. Excluding ISG, fund
servicing fees increased 22% mainly due to existing and new client growth.
Brokerage fees of $249 million for 2000 increased $30 million or 14%
reflecting the continued expansion of Hilliard Lyons' distribution network.
Consumer services revenue of $209 million for 2000 increased 7% compared with
the prior year, excluding credit card fees. The increase was primarily due to
higher consumer transaction volume.
Corporate services revenue of $342 million for 2000 increased 7% compared
with the prior year, excluding the impact of valuation adjustments in 1999. The
increase was primarily driven by higher treasury management and commercial
mortgage servicing fees that were partially offset by a lower level of
commercial mortgage-backed securitization gains.
Equity management income was $133 million for 2000 compared with $100
million in the prior year. Equity investments are carried at estimated fair
value and, accordingly, revenue related to these investments may be affected by
market volatility. While equity management income was strong in the first half
of 2000, weak capital markets caused the second half to be near break even.
Net securities gains were $20 million for 2000 compared with $22 million
for 1999. The net securities gains in 1999 included a $41 million gain from the
sale of Concord EFS, Inc. ("Concord") stock that was partially offset by a $28
million write-down of an equity investment.
Sale of subsidiary stock of $64 million in 1999 reflected the gain from the
BlackRock IPO.
Other noninterest income of $269 million for 2000 increased $24 million or
10% compared with the prior year excluding non-core items, primarily due to
growth in customer derivative and foreign exchange activity.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE
Noninterest expense was $3.071 billion for 2000 compared with $2.703 billion for
1999, excluding non-core items that are detailed in the 1999 Versus 1998 section
of this Financial Review. The efficiency ratio was 57% for 2000 compared with
55% for the prior year, also excluding non-core items. The increases were
primarily related to the ISG acquisition. Excluding ISG, noninterest expense
increased 2% compared with the prior year. Average full-time equivalent
employees totaled approximately 24,900 and 22,700 for 2000 and 1999,
respectively. The increase was primarily due to the ISG acquisition, partially
offset by the impact of efficiency initiatives in traditional banking businesses
and the sale of the credit card business in the first quarter of 1999.
CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEET REVIEW
LOANS
Loans were $50.6 billion at December 31, 2000, a $928 million increase from
year-end 1999 as increases in residential mortgage loans and lease financing
were partially offset by lower consumer, commercial and commercial real estate
loans.

Loans held for sale were $1.7 billion at December 31, 2000 compared with $3.5
billion at December 31, 1999. The decrease was primarily due to dispositions of
loans designated for exit. Total outstandings and exposure designated for exit
during 1999 totaled $3.7 billion and $10.5 billion, respectively. At December
31, 2000, total outstandings associated with this initiative were $1.0 billion
of which $286 million were classified as loans held for sale, with the remainder
included in loans. Total exposure relating to this initiative was $2.7 billion

RISK FACTORS
The Corporation is subject to a number of risk factors, including among others,
those described below and in the Risk Management and Forward-Looking Statements
sections of this Financial Review. These factors and others could impact the
Corporation's business, financial condition and results of operations.
BUSINESS AND ECONOMIC CONDITIONS
The Corporation's business and results of operations are sensitive to general
business and economic conditions in the United States. These conditions include
the level and movement of interest rates, inflation, monetary supply,
fluctuations in both debt and equity capital markets, and the strength of the
U.S. economy, in general, and the regional economies in which the Corporation
conducts business. An economic downturn or higher interest rates could decrease
the demand for loans and other products and services offered by the Corporation,
increase usage of unfunded commitments or increase the number of customers and
counterparties who become delinquent, file for protection under bankruptcy laws
or default on their loans or other obligations to the Corporation. An increase
in the number of delinquencies, bankruptcies or defaults could result in a
higher level of net charge-offs that could result in a higher provision for
credit losses. Changes in interest rates could affect the value of certain
on-balance-sheet and off-balance-sheet financial instruments of the Corporation.
Higher interest rates would also increase the Corporation's cost to borrow funds
and may increase the rate paid on deposits. Also, changes in equity markets
could affect the value of equity investments and the net asset value of assets
under management and administration. A decline in the equity markets could
negatively affect noninterest revenues.
MONETARY AND OTHER POLICIES
The financial services industry is subject to various monetary and other
policies and regulations of the United States government and its agencies, which
include the Federal Reserve Board, the Office of the Comptroller of Currency,
the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and state regulators. The Corporation
is particularly affected by the policies of the Federal Reserve Board, which
regulates the supply of money and credit in the United States. The Federal
Reserve Board's policies influence the rates of interest that PNC charges on
loans and pays on interest-bearing deposits and can also affect the value of
on-balance-sheet and off-balance-sheet financial instruments. Those policies
also determine, to a significant extent, the cost to the Corporation of funds.
COMPETITION
The Corporation operates in a highly competitive environment, both in terms of
the products and services offered and the geographic markets in which PNC
conducts business. This environment could become even more competitive in the
future. The Corporation competes with local, regional and national banks,
thrifts, credit unions and non-bank financial institutions, such as investment
banking firms, investment advisory firms, brokerage firms, investment companies,
venture capital firms, mutual fund complexes and insurance companies, as well as
other entities that offer financial services, and through alternative delivery
channels such as the World Wide Web. Technological advances and new legislation,
among other changes, have lowered barriers to entry and have made it possible
for non-bank institutions to offer products and services that traditionally have
been provided by banks. Many of the Corporation's competitors benefit from fewer
regulatory constraints and lower cost structures, allowing for more competitive
pricing of products and services.
The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act ("the Act"), which was enacted on November 12,
1999, permits affiliations among banks, securities firms and insurance
companies. The Act significantly changes the competitive environment in which
the Corporation conducts business. This environment could result in a loss of
customers and related revenue.
DISINTERMEDIATION
Disintermediation is the process of eliminating the role of the intermediary in
completing a transaction. For the financial services industry, this means
eliminating or significantly reducing the role of banks and other depository
institutions in completing transactions that have traditionally involved banks.
Disintermediation could result in, among others, the loss of customer deposits
and decreases in transactions that generate fee income.
| 48
ASSET MANAGEMENT PERFORMANCE
Asset management revenue is primarily based on a percentage of the value of
assets under management and performance fees expressed as a percentage of the
returns realized on assets under management. A decline in the prices of debt and
equity instruments, among other things, could cause asset management revenue to
decline.
Investment performance is an important factor for the level of assets under
management. Poor investment performance could impair revenue and growth as
existing clients might withdraw funds in favor of better performing products.
Also, performance fees could be lower or nonexistent. Additionally, the ability
to attract funds from existing and new clients might diminish.
FUND SERVICING
Fund servicing fees are primarily based on the market value of the assets and
the number of shareholder accounts administered by the Corporation for its
clients. A rise in interest rates or a decline in the debt and equity markets
could influence an investor's decision whether to invest or maintain an
investment in a mutual fund. As a result, fluctuations may occur in assets that
the Corporation has under administration. A significant investor migration from
mutual fund investments could have a negative impact on the Corporation's
revenues by reducing the assets and the number of shareholder accounts it
administers. There has been and continues to be merger, acquisition and
consolidation activity in the financial services industry. Mergers or
consolidations of financial institutions in the future could reduce the number
of existing or potential fund servicing clients.
ACQUISITIONS
The Corporation expands its business from time to time by acquiring other
financial services companies. Factors pertaining to acquisitions that could
adversely affect the Corporation's business and earnings include, among others:
o anticipated cost savings or potential revenue enhancements that may not be
fully realized or realized within the expected time frame;
o customer loss or revenue loss following an acquisition that may be greater
than expected; and
o costs or difficulties related to the integration of businesses that may be
greater than expected.
RISK MANAGEMENT
In the normal course of business, the Corporation assumes various types of risk,
which include, among others, credit risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk,
and risk associated with trading activities and financial derivatives. PNC has
risk management processes designed to provide for risk identification,
measurement and monitoring.
CREDIT RISK
Credit risk represents the possibility that a borrower or counterparty may not
perform in accordance with contractual terms. Credit risk is inherent in the
financial services business and results from extending credit to customers,
purchasing securities and entering into off-balance-sheet financial derivative
transactions. The Corporation seeks to manage credit risk through, among other
things, diversification, limiting exposure to any single industry or customer,
requiring collateral, selling participations to third parties, and purchasing
credit-related derivatives.

The amount of nonperforming loans that were current as to principal and
interest was $67 million at December 31, 2000 and $42 million at December 31,
1999. There were no troubled debt restructured loans outstanding as of either
period end.
The increase in nonaccrual loans during 2000 was primarily in specialized
industry segments. A sustained or further weakening of the economy, among other
things, could result in an increase in the number of delinquencies, bankruptcies
or defaults, which could result in a higher level of nonperforming assets, net
charge-offs and provision for credit losses in future periods. See the
Forward-Looking Statements section of this Financial Review for additional
factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from
forward-looking statements or historical performance.

Loans not included in nonaccrual or past due categories, but where information
about possible credit problems causes management to be uncertain about the
borrower's ability to comply with existing repayment terms over the next six
months totaled $182 million at December 31, 2000.
ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES
In determining the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses, the Corporation
makes specific allocations to impaired loans and to pools of watchlist and
nonwatchlist loans for various credit risk factors. Allocations to loan pools
are developed by business segment and risk rating and are based on historical
loss trends and management's judgment concerning those trends and other relevant
factors. Those factors may include, among other things, actual versus estimated
losses, regional and national economic conditions, business segment and
portfolio concentrations, industry competition and consolidation, and the impact
of government regulations. Consumer and residential mortgage loan allocations
are made at a total portfolio level based on historical loss experience adjusted
for portfolio activity and economic conditions.
While PNC's pool reserve methodologies strive to reflect all risk factors,
there continues to be a certain element of risk associated with, but not limited
to, potential estimation or judgmental errors. Unallocated reserves are designed
to provide coverage for such risks. While allocations are made to specific loans
and pools of loans, the total reserve is available for all credit losses.
Senior management's Reserve Adequacy Committee provides oversight for the
allowance evaluation process, including quarterly evaluations and methodology
and estimation changes. The results of the evaluations are reported to the
Credit Committee of the Board of Directors.
The provision for credit losses for 2000 and the evaluation of the
allowance for credit losses as of December 31, 2000 reflected changes in loan
portfolio composition and changes in asset quality. The unallocated portion of
the allowance for credit losses represented 20% of the total allowance and .26%
of total loans at December 31, 2000 compared with 20% and .27%, respectively, at
December 31, 1999.

=================================================================================
INTEREST RATE RISK
Interest rate risk arises primarily through the Corporation's traditional
business activities of extending loans and accepting deposits. Many factors,
including economic and financial conditions, movements in interest rates and
consumer preferences affect the spread between interest earned on assets and
interest paid on liabilities. In managing interest rate risk, the Corporation
seeks to minimize its reliance on a particular interest rate scenario as a
source of earnings while maximizing net interest income and net interest margin.
To further these objectives, the Corporation uses securities purchases and
sales, short-term and long-term funding, financial derivatives and other capital
markets instruments.
Interest rate risk is centrally managed by Asset and Liability Management.
The Corporation actively measures and monitors components of interest rate risk
including term structure or repricing risk, yield curve or nonparallel rate
shift risk, basis risk and options risk. The Corporation measures and manages
both the short-term and long-term effects of changing interest rates. An income
simulation model is designed to measure the sensitivity of net interest income
to changing interest rates over the next twenty-four month period. An economic
value of equity model is designed to measure the sensitivity of the value of
existing on-balance-sheet and off-balance-sheet positions to changing interest
rates.
The income simulation model is the primary tool used to measure the
direction and magnitude of changes in net interest income resulting from changes
in interest rates. Forecasting net interest income and its sensitivity to
changes in interest rates requires that the Corporation make assumptions about
the volume and characteristics of new business and the behavior of existing
positions. These business assumptions are based on the Corporation's experience,
business plans and published industry experience. Key assumptions employed in
the model include prepayment speeds on mortgage-related assets and consumer
loans, loan volumes and pricing, deposit volumes and pricing, the expected life
and repricing characteristics of nonmaturity loans and deposits, and
management's financial and capital plans.
Because these assumptions are inherently uncertain, the model cannot
precisely estimate net interest income or precisely predict the effect of higher
or lower interest rates on net interest income. Actual results will differ from
simulated results due to the timing, magnitude and frequency of interest rate
changes, the difference between actual experience and the assumed volume and
characteristics of new business and behavior of existing positions, and changes
in market conditions and management strategies, among other factors.
The Corporation's interest rate risk management policies provide that net
interest income should not decrease by more than 3% if interest rates gradually
increase or decrease from current rates by 100 basis points over a twelve-month
period. At December 31, 2000, if interest rates were to gradually increase by
100 basis points over the next twelve months, the model indicated that net
interest income would decrease by .3%. If interest rates were to gradually
decrease by 100 basis points over the next twelve months, the model indicated
that net interest income would increase by .4%.
51 |
The Corporation models additional interest rate scenarios covering a wider
range of rate movements to identify yield curve, term structure and basis risk
exposures. These scenarios are developed based on historical rate relationships
or management's expectations regarding the future direction and level of
interest rates. Depending on market conditions and other factors, these
scenarios may be modeled more or less frequently. Such analyses are used to
identify inherent risk and develop appropriate strategies.
An economic value of equity model is used by the Corporation to value all
current on-balance-sheet and off-balance-sheet positions under a range of
instantaneous interest rate changes. The resulting change in the value of equity
is the measure of overall long-term interest rate risk inherent in the
Corporation's existing on-balance-sheet and off-balance-sheet positions. The
Corporation uses the economic value of equity model to complement the net
interest income simulation modeling process.
The Corporation's risk management policies provide that the change in
economic value of equity should not decline by more than 1.5% of the book value
of assets for a 200 basis point instantaneous increase or decrease in interest
rates. Based on the results of the economic value of equity model at December
31, 2000, if interest rates were to instantaneously increase by 200 basis
points, the model indicated that the economic value of existing on-balance-sheet
and off-balance-sheet positions would decline by .8% of assets. If interest
rates were to instantaneously decrease by 200 basis points, the model indicated
that the economic value of existing on-balance-sheet and off-balance-sheet
positions would decrease by .1% of assets.
LIQUIDITY RISK
Liquidity represents the Corporation's ability to obtain cost-effective funding
to meet the needs of customers as well as the Corporation's financial
obligations. Liquidity is centrally managed by Asset and Liability Management,
with oversight provided by the Corporate Asset and Liability Committee and the
Finance Committee of the Board of Directors.
Access to capital markets funding sources is a key factor affecting
liquidity management. Access to such markets is in part based on the
Corporation's credit ratings, which are influenced by a number of factors
including capital ratios, credit quality and earnings. Additional factors that
impact liquidity include the maturity structure of existing assets, liabilities,
and off-balance-sheet positions, the level of liquid securities and loans
available for sale, and the Corporation's ability to securitize and sell various
types of loans.
Liquidity can also be provided through the sale of liquid assets, which
consist of short-term investments, loans held for sale and securities available
for sale. At December 31, 2000, such assets totaled $8.7 billion, with $3.8
billion pledged as collateral for borrowings, trust and other commitments.
Liquidity can also be obtained through secured advances from the Federal Home
Loan Bank, of which PNC Bank, N.A., PNC's largest bank subsidiary, is a member.
These borrowings are generally secured by residential mortgages and
mortgage-backed securities. At December 31, 2000, approximately $7.3 billion of
residential mortgages were available as collateral for borrowings from the
Federal Home Loan Bank. Funding can also be obtained through alternative forms
of borrowing, including federal funds purchased, repurchase agreements and
short-term and long-term debt issuances.
Liquidity for the parent company and subsidiaries is also generated through
the issuance of securities in public or private markets and lines of credit. At
December 31, 2000, the Corporation had unused capacity under effective shelf
registration statements of approximately $1.4 billion of debt and equity
securities and $400 million of trust preferred capital securities. In addition,
the Corporation had an unused line of credit of $500 million.
The principal source of parent company revenue and cash flow is dividends
from subsidiary banks. PNC Bancorp, Inc. is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
parent company and is the holding company for all bank subsidiaries. There are
legal limitations on the ability of bank subsidiaries to pay dividends and make
other distributions to PNC Bancorp, Inc. and in turn to the parent company.
Without regulatory approval, the amount available for dividend payments to PNC
Bancorp, Inc. by all bank subsidiaries was $634 million at December 31, 2000.
Dividends may also be impacted by capital needs, regulatory requirements,
corporate policies, contractual restrictions and other factors.
Management believes the Corporation has sufficient liquidity to meet
current obligations to borrowers, depositors, debt holders and others. The
impact of replacing maturing liabilities is reflected in the income simulation
model in the overall asset and liability management process.

TRADING ACTIVITIES
Most of PNC's trading activities are designed to provide capital markets
services to customers and not to position the Corporation's portfolio for gains
from market movements. PNC participates in derivatives and foreign exchange
trading as well as "market making" in equity securities as an accommodation to
customers. PNC also engages in trading activities as part of risk management
strategies.
Risk associated with trading, capital markets and foreign exchange
activities is managed using a value-at-risk approach that combines interest rate
risk, foreign exchange rate risk, spread risk and volatility risk. Using this
approach, exposure is measured as the potential loss due to a two standard
deviation, one-day move in interest rates. The combined period-end value-at-risk
of all trading operations using this measurement was estimated as less than $500
thousand at December 31, 2000.
FINANCIAL DERIVATIVES
The Corporation uses a variety of off-balance-sheet financial derivatives as
part of the overall risk management process to manage the interest rate, market
and credit risk inherent in the Corporation's business activities. Interest rate
swaps and purchased interest rate caps and floors are the primary instruments
used for interest rate risk management. Interest rate swaps are agreements to
exchange fixed and floating interest rate payments calculated on a notional
principal amount. The floating rate is based on a money market index, primarily
short-term LIBOR. Purchased interest rate caps and floors are agreements where,
for a fee, the counterparty agrees to pay the Corporation the amount, if any, by
which a specified market interest rate exceeds or is less than a defined rate
applied to a notional amount, respectively.
Forward contracts provide for the delivery of financial instruments at a
specified future date and at a specified price or yield. Such contracts are
primarily used to manage risk positions associated with certain student lending
activities.
Credit-related derivatives provide, for a fee, an assumption of a portion
of the credit risk associated with the underlying financial instruments. Such
contracts are primarily used to mitigate credit risk and lower the required
regulatory capital associated with commercial lending activities.
Financial derivatives involve, to varying degrees, interest rate, market
and credit risk in excess of the amount on the balance sheet, but less than the
notional amount of the contract. For interest rate swaps, caps and floors, only
periodic cash payments and, with respect to caps and floors, premiums, are
exchanged. Therefore, cash requirements and exposure to credit risk are
significantly less than the notional value.
Not all elements of interest rate, market and credit risk are addressed
through the use of financial derivatives, and such instruments may be
ineffective for their intended purposes due to unanticipated market
characteristics among other reasons.
During 2000, financial derivatives used in interest rate risk management
decreased net interest income by $57 million compared with a $43 million
increase in the prior year.
The following table sets forth changes in the notional value of
off-balance-sheet financial derivatives used for risk management during 2000.

1999 VERSUS 1998
CONSOLIDATED INCOME STATEMENT REVIEW
OVERVIEW
Earnings for 1999 were $1.202 billion or $3.94 per diluted share and included
one-time gains that were partially offset by the cost of certain strategic
initiatives. Cash earnings per diluted share were $4.21 for 1999, a 14% increase
compared with 1998.
Core earnings, which exclude one-time gains and the cost of certain
strategic initiatives, were $1.137 billion or $3.72 per diluted share, a 7%
increase compared with 1998. On a core basis, return on average common
shareholders' equity was 20.12% and return on average assets was 1.66% compared
with 20.14% and 1.55%, respectively, in the prior year. Core cash earnings per
diluted share were $4.00 for 1999, an 8% increase compared with 1998.
The following table summarizes one-time gains and the cost of certain
strategic initiatives and reconciles reported to core earnings for 1999.

Core earnings ................................ $1,729 $1,137
==============================================================================
NET INTEREST INCOME
Taxable-equivalent net interest income was $2.366 billion for 1999, a $148
million decrease compared with 1998. The net interest margin was 3.86% for 1999
compared with 3.99% in the prior year. These declines were primarily due to the
sale of the credit card business in the first quarter of 1999. Excluding the
credit card business, net interest income for 1999 increased $107 million or 5%
and the net interest margin widened nine basis points compared with the prior
year. The increases were primarily due to higher commercial and other loans that
resulted from strong growth in middle market lending and the strategic expansion
of secured and equipment lease financing.
PROVISION FOR CREDIT LOSSES
The provision for credit losses was $163 million in 1999 compared with $225
million in 1998. Net charge-offs were $161 million or .31% of average loans for
1999 compared with $447 million or .80%, respectively, in 1998. The decreases
were primarily due to the sale of the credit card business in the first quarter
of 1999. Excluding credit cards, net charge-offs were .20% of average loans for
1999 compared with .32% in 1998.
NONINTEREST INCOME
Noninterest income was $2.450 billion for 1999 and represented 51% of total
revenue compared with $2.086 billion and 45%, respectively, in 1998. The
increases were primarily due to strong growth in fee-based businesses.
Asset management fees of $681 million for 1999 increased $143 million or
26% compared with 1998, excluding performance fees associated with BAI, a pooled
investment fund that was liquidated in 1999, and revenue from the corporate
trust business that was sold in 1998. Assets under management increased to
approximately $213 billion at December 31, 1999 compared with $174 billion at
December 31, 1998.
Mutual fund servicing fees of $251 million for 1999 increased $69 million
or 38% compared with 1998 of which $30 million was attributable to the one-month
impact of the ISG acquisition. The remaining increase was primarily due to new
and existing client growth as well as market appreciation.
Service charges on deposits of $207 million were consistent with the prior
year. Brokerage income of $219 million in 1999 increased $128 million compared
with 1998 primarily due to the acquisition of Hilliard Lyons. Consumer services
revenue of $218 million for 1999 decreased $67 million compared with 1998
primarily due to the sale of the credit card business in the first quarter of
1999.
| 56
The decrease in corporate services revenue primarily reflected the impact
of $188 million of valuation adjustments in 1999 associated with the exit of
certain non-strategic lending businesses. Excluding valuation adjustments in
both years, corporate services revenue was $321 million and $275 million for
1999 and 1998, respectively, a 17% increase primarily due to growth in
commercial mortgage banking, capital markets and treasury management fees.
Equity management income was $100 million for 1999 and $96 million for
1998. Both years benefited from strong equity market conditions. Net securities
gains for 1999 were $22 million and included a $41 million gain from the sale of
Concord stock that was partially offset by a $28 million write-down of an equity
investment. Sale of subsidiary stock of $64 million in 1999 reflected the gain
from the BlackRock IPO.
Other noninterest income included a $193 million gain from the sale of the
credit card business in the first quarter of 1999. Also included in other
noninterest income was a $97 million gain from the sale of an equity interest in
Electronic Payment Services, Inc. ("EPS"), $27 million of gains from the sale of
retail branches and $7 million of valuation adjustments. During 1998, other
noninterest income included a $97 million gain from the sale of the corporate
trust business, $86 million of branch gains and a $21 million loss from the sale
of a credit card portfolio. Excluding these items, other noninterest income
increased $65 million in the comparison primarily due to the Hilliard Lyons
acquisition.
NONINTEREST EXPENSE
Noninterest expense was $2.843 billion for 1999 compared with $2.698 billion in
1998. The increase was primarily to support revenue growth in fee-based
businesses. On a comparable basis, noninterest expense increased $81 million or
3% excluding $98 million of costs related to efficiency initiatives
(compensation - $22 million, net occupancy - $35 million, equipment - $38
million and other - $3 million), a $30 million contribution to the PNC
Foundation and $12 million of expense associated with the buyout of PNC's mall
ATM marketing representative from 1999. For 1998, $55 million of costs related
to consumer banking initiatives and $21 million of merger and acquisition
integration costs were excluded from the comparison. The efficiency ratio was
55% for 1999 and 1998 reflecting a continued focus on improving returns in
traditional businesses. Average full-time equivalent employees were relatively
consistent in the year-to-year comparison and totaled approximately 22,700 and
23,000 in 1999 and 1998, respectively.
CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEET REVIEW
LOANS
Loans were $49.7 billion at December 31, 1999, an $8.0 billion decrease from
year-end 1998 primarily due to the impact of strategies designed to reduce
balance sheet leverage in lower-return businesses.
SECURITIES AVAILABLE FOR SALE
Securities available for sale increased $1.5 billion from December 31, 1998, to
$6.0 billion at December 31, 1999. The expected weighted-average life of
securities available for sale increased to 4 years and 7 months at December 31,
1999, compared with 2 years and 8 months at year-end 1998.
FUNDING SOURCES
Total funding sources were $60.0 billion at December 31, 1999, a decrease of
$2.1 billion compared with December 31, 1998 primarily resulting from reduced
wholesale funding related to the credit card business that was sold in the first
quarter of 1999.
Total demand, savings and money market deposits decreased approximately
$190 million in the year-to-year comparison as increases in money market
deposits were more than offset by decreases in time deposits, primarily due to
decreases in higher-rate certificates of deposit.
ASSET QUALITY
The ratio of nonperforming assets to total loans, loans held for sale and
foreclosed assets was .61% at December 31, 1999 and .55% at December 31, 1998.
Nonperforming assets were $325 million at December 31, 1999 compared with $319
million at December 31, 1998. The allowance for credit losses was $674 million
and represented 232% of nonaccrual loans and 1.36% of total loans at December
31, 1999. The comparable ratios were 263% and 1.31%, respectively, at December
31, 1998.
CAPITAL
Shareholders' equity totaled $5.9 billion and $6.0 billion at December 31, 1999
and 1998, respectively, and the leverage ratio was 6.61% and 7.28% in the
comparison. Tier I and total risk-based capital ratios were 7.05% and 11.08%,
respectively, at December 31, 1999, compared with 7.80% and 11.16%,
respectively, at December 31, 1998, computed on a basis including discontinued
operations.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This report and other documents filed by the Corporation with the SEC include
forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act with respect to future financial or business performance,
conditions, strategies, expectations and goals. In addition, the Corporation may
also include forward-looking statements in other written or oral statements.
Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words or phrases such as
"believe," "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "estimate," "position," "target,"
"mission," "assume," "achievable," "potential," "strategy," "goal," "objective,"
"plan," "aspiration," "outlook," "outcome," "continue," "remain," "maintain,"
"strive," "trend" and variations of such words and similar expressions, or
future or conditional verbs such as "will," "would," "should," "could," "may" or
similar expressions.
The Corporation cautions that forward-looking statements are subject to
numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties, which change over time. Actual
results could differ materially from those anticipated in forward-looking
statements and future results could differ materially from historical
performance. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made
and the Corporation assumes no duty to update forward-looking statements.
In addition to these factors and those mentioned elsewhere in this report,
the following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ
materially from forward-looking statements or historical performance: decisions
the Corporation makes with respect to the redeployment of available capital;
changes in asset quality and credit risk; economic conditions; changes in
financial and capital markets; the inability to sustain revenue and earnings
growth; changes in interest rates; inflation; changes in values of assets under
management and assets serviced; relative investment performance of assets under
management; customer acceptance of PNC products and services; customer
borrowing, repayment, investment, and deposit practices; customer
disintermediation; valuation of debt and equity investments; the inability to
successfully manage risks inherent in the Corporation's business; the
introduction, withdrawal, success and timing of business initiatives and
strategies; the extent and cost of any share repurchases; decisions the
Corporation makes with respect to further reduction of balance sheet leverage
and potential investments in PNC businesses; competitive conditions; the
inability to realize cost savings or revenue enhancements, implement integration
plans and other consequences associated with mergers, acquisitions,
restructurings and divestitures; and the impact, extent and timing of
technological changes, capital management activities, and actions of the Federal
Reserve Board and legislative and regulatory actions and reforms. Further, an
increase in the number of customer or counterparty delinquencies, bankruptcies,
or defaults could result in, among other things, a higher loan loss provision
and reduced profitability.
Some of the above factors are described in more detail in the Risk Factors
section of this Financial Review and factors relating to credit risk, interest
rate risk, liquidity risk, trading activities and financial derivatives are
discussed in the Risk Management section of this Financial Review. Other factors
are described elsewhere in this report.

internal audit staff, which reports to the Audit Committee of the Board of
Directors. The Audit Committee, composed solely of independent directors,
provides oversight to management's conduct of the financial reporting process.
There are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any system of
internal control, including the possibility of human error and circumvention or
overriding of controls. Accordingly, even effective internal control can provide
only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation.
Further, because of changes in conditions, the effectiveness of internal control
may vary over time.
Management assessed The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc.'s internal
control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2000. This assessment was
based on criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting
described in "Internal Control-Integrated Framework" issued by the Committee of
Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment,
management believes that The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. maintained an
effective internal control system over financial reporting as of December 31,
2000.

REPORT OF ERNST & YOUNG LLP, INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
Shareholders and Board of Directors
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of The PNC Financial
Services Group, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the
related consolidated statements of income, shareholders' equity, and cash flows
for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2000. These
financial statements are the responsibility of The PNC Financial Services Group,
Inc.'s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform
the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An
audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of The PNC
Financial Services Group, Inc. and subsidiaries at December 31, 2000 and 1999,
and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each
of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2000, in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc.
BUSINESS
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. ("Corporation" or "PNC") is one of the
largest diversified financial services companies in the United States, operating
community banking, corporate banking, real estate finance, asset-based lending,
wealth management, asset management and global fund services businesses. The
Corporation provides certain products and services nationally and others in
PNC's primary geographic markets in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Ohio and
Kentucky. The Corporation also provides certain products and services
internationally. PNC is subject to intense competition from other financial
services companies and is subject to regulation by certain federal and state
agencies and undergoes periodic examinations by those authorities.
NOTE 1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PNC and its
subsidiaries, most of which are wholly owned. Such statements have been prepared
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been
eliminated. Certain prior-period amounts have been reclassified to conform with
the current period presentation. These classifications did not impact the
Corporation's financial condition or results of operations.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. Actual
results will differ from such estimates and the differences may be material to
the consolidated financial statements.
The Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements reflect the residential mortgage banking business, which was sold on
January 31, 2001, as discontinued operations, unless otherwise noted.
LOANS HELD FOR SALE
Loans are designated as held for sale when the Corporation has a positive intent
to sell them. Loans are transferred at the lower of cost or market to the loans
held for sale category. Upon the transfer, related write-downs on loans
classified as nonaccrual are charged against the allowance for credit losses and
for all other loans write-downs are charged to noninterest income. Such loans
are carried at the lower of cost or aggregate market value and related valuation
adjustments subsequent to transfer are included in noninterest income.
SECURITIES
Securities purchased with the intention of recognizing short-term profits are
placed in the trading account, carried at market value and classified as
short-term investments. Gains and losses on trading securities are included in
noninterest income. Securities not classified as trading are designated as
securities available for sale and carried at fair value with unrealized gains
and losses, net of income taxes, reflected in accumulated other comprehensive
income or loss. Gains and losses realized on the sale of securities available
for sale are computed on a specific security basis and included in noninterest
income.
LOANS
Loans are stated at the principal amounts outstanding, net of unearned income.
Interest income with respect to loans is accrued on the principal amount
outstanding, except for lease financing income which is recognized over its
respective terms using methods which approximate the level yield method.
Significant loan fees are deferred and accreted to interest income over the
respective lives of the loans.
LOAN SECURITIZATIONS AND RETAINED INTERESTS
The Corporation sells mortgage and other loans through secondary market
securitizations. In certain cases, the Corporation will retain interest-only
strips, servicing rights and cash reserve accounts, all of which are associated
with the securitized asset. Any gain or loss recognized on the sale of the loans
depends in part on the previous carrying amount, allocated between the loans
sold and the retained interests, based on their relative fair market values at
the date of transfer. The Corporation generally estimates fair value based on
the present value of future expected cash flows using assumptions as to discount
rates, prepayment speeds, credit losses and servicing costs, if applicable.
| 64
Servicing rights are maintained at the lower of carrying value or fair
market value and are amortized in proportion to estimated net servicing income.
Retained interests in loan securitizations are carried at fair market value and,
if included in securities available for sale, adjusted to fair market value
through accumulated other comprehensive income or loss. Fair market value
adjustments for all other retained interests are recorded in noninterest income.
For servicing rights retained, the Corporation generally receives a fee for
servicing the securitized loans.
NONPERFORMING ASSETS
Nonperforming assets are comprised of nonaccrual loans, troubled debt
restructurings, nonaccrual loans held for sale and foreclosed assets. Generally,
loans other than consumer are classified as nonaccrual when it is determined
that the collection of interest or principal is doubtful or when a default of
interest or principal has existed for 90 days or more, unless the loans are well
secured and in the process of collection. When interest accrual is discontinued,
accrued but uncollected interest credited to income in the current year is
reversed and unpaid interest accrued in the prior year, if any, is charged
against the allowance for credit losses. Consumer loans are generally charged
off when payments are past due 120 days.
A loan is categorized as a troubled debt restructuring in the year of
restructuring if a concession is granted to the borrower due to a deterioration
in the financial condition of the borrower.
Nonperforming loans are generally not returned to performing status until
the obligation is brought current and has performed in accordance with the
contractual terms for a reasonable period of time and collection of the
contractual principal and interest is no longer doubtful.
Loans held for sale, which are carried at lower of cost or aggregate market
value, are considered nonaccrual when it is determined that the collection of
interest or principal is doubtful or when a default of interest or principal has
existed for 90 days or more, unless the loans are well secured and in the
process of collection. Nonaccrual loans held for sale are reported as other
nonperforming assets.
Foreclosed assets are comprised of property acquired through a foreclosure
proceeding or acceptance of a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure. These assets are
recorded on the date acquired at the lower of the related loan balance or market
value of the collateral less estimated disposition costs. Market values are
estimated primarily based on appraisals. Subsequently, foreclosed assets are
valued at the lower of the amount recorded at acquisition date or the current
market value less estimated disposition costs. Gains or losses realized from
disposition of such property are reflected in noninterest expense.
Impaired loans consist of nonaccrual commercial and commercial real estate
loans and troubled debt restructurings. Interest collected on these loans is
recognized on the cash basis or cost recovery method.
ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES
The allowance for credit losses is established through provisions charged
against income. Loans deemed to be uncollectible are charged against the
allowance and recoveries of previously charged-off loans are credited to the
allowance.
The allowance is maintained at a level believed by management to be
sufficient to absorb estimated probable credit losses. Management's
determination of the adequacy of the allowance is based on periodic evaluations
of the credit portfolio and other relevant factors. This evaluation is
inherently subjective as it requires material estimates, including, among
others, the amounts and timing of expected future cash flows on impaired loans,
estimated losses on consumer loans and residential mortgages, and general
amounts for historical loss experience, economic conditions, uncertainties in
estimating losses and inherent risks in the various credit portfolios, all of
which may be susceptible to significant change.
In determining the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses, the
Corporation makes specific allocations to impaired loans and to pools of
watchlist and nonwatchlist loans for various credit risk factors. Allocations to
loan pools are developed by business segment and risk rating and are based on
historical loss trends and management's judgment concerning those trends and
other relevant factors. These factors may include, among others, actual versus
estimated losses, regional and national economic conditions, business segment
portfolio concentrations, industry competition and consolidation, and the impact
of government regulations. Consumer and residential mortgage loan allocations
are made at a total portfolio level based on historical loss experience adjusted
for portfolio activity and economic conditions.
While PNC's pool reserve methodologies strive to reflect all risk factors,
there continues to be a certain element of risk associated with, but not limited
to, potential estimation or judgmental errors. Unallocated reserves are designed
to provide coverage for such risks. While allocations are made to specific loans
and pools of loans, the total reserve is available for all credit losses.
65 |
EQUITY MANAGEMENT ASSETS
Equity management assets are included in other assets. These investments are
carried at estimated fair value with changes in fair value recognized in
noninterest income.
GOODWILL AND OTHER AMORTIZABLE ASSETS
Goodwill is amortized to expense on a straight-line basis over periods ranging
from 15 to 25 years. Other amortizable assets are amortized to expense using
accelerated or straight-line methods over their respective estimated useful
lives. On a periodic basis, management reviews goodwill and other amortizable
assets and evaluates events or changes in circumstances that may indicate
impairment in the carrying amount of such assets. In such instances, impairment,
if any, is measured on a discounted future cash flow basis.
DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION
For financial reporting purposes, premises and equipment are depreciated
principally using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives
ranging from one to 39 years. Accelerated methods are used for federal income
tax purposes. Leasehold improvements are amortized over their estimated useful
lives or the respective lease terms, whichever is shorter.
REPURCHASE AND RESALE AGREEMENTS
Repurchase and resale agreements are treated as collateralized financing
transactions and are carried at the amounts that the securities will be
subsequently reacquired or resold, including accrued interest, as specified in
the respective agreements. The Corporation's policy is to take possession of
securities purchased under agreements to resell. The market value of securities
to be repurchased and resold is monitored, and additional collateral may be
obtained where considered appropriate to protect against credit exposure.
TREASURY STOCK
The Corporation records common stock purchased for treasury at cost. At the date
of subsequent reissue, the treasury stock account is reduced by the cost of such
stock on the first-in, first-out basis.
FINANCIAL DERIVATIVES
The Corporation uses off-balance-sheet financial derivatives as part of the
overall asset and liability management process, for commercial mortgage banking
risk management and to manage credit risk. Substantially all such instruments
are used to manage risk related to changes in interest rates. Financial
derivatives primarily consist of interest rate swaps, purchased interest rate
caps and floors, forward contracts and credit default swaps.
Interest rate swaps are agreements with a counterparty to exchange periodic
interest payments calculated on a notional principal amount. Purchased interest
rate caps and floors are agreements where, for a fee, the counterparty agrees to
pay the Corporation the amount, if any, by which a specified market interest
rate is higher or lower than a defined rate applied to a notional amount.
Interest rate swaps, caps and floors that modify the interest rate
characteristics (such as from fixed to variable, variable to fixed, or one
variable index to another) of designated interest-bearing assets or liabilities
are accounted for under the accrual method. The net amount payable or receivable
from the derivative contract is accrued as an adjustment to interest income or
interest expense of the designated instrument. Premiums on contracts are
deferred and amortized over the life of the agreement as an adjustment to
interest income or interest expense of the designated instruments. Unamortized
premiums are included in other assets.
Changes in the fair value of financial derivatives accounted for under the
accrual method are not reflected in results of operations. Realized gains and
losses, except losses on terminated interest rate caps and floors, are deferred
as an adjustment to the carrying amount of the designated instruments and
amortized over the shorter of the remaining original life of the agreements or
the designated instruments. Losses on terminated interest rate caps and floors
are recognized immediately in results of operations. If the designated
instruments are disposed, the fair value of the associated derivative contracts
and any unamortized deferred gains or losses are included in the determination
of gain or loss on the disposition of such instruments. Contracts not qualifying
for accrual accounting are marked to market with gains or losses included in
noninterest income.
Forward contracts provide for the delivery of financial instruments at a
specified future date and at a specified price or yield. The Corporation uses
forward contracts primarily to manage risk associated with its student lending
activities. Realized gains and losses on mandatory and optional delivery forward
commitments are recorded in noninterest income in the period settlement occurs.
Unrealized gains or losses are considered in the lower of cost or market
valuation of loans held for sale.

Credit-related derivatives are entered into to mitigate credit risk and
lower the required regulatory capital associated with commercial lending
activities. If the credit-related derivative qualifies for hedge accounting
treatment, the premium paid to enter the credit-related derivative is recorded
in other assets and is deferred and amortized to noninterest expense over the
life of the agreement. Changes in the fair value of credit-related derivatives
qualifying for hedge accounting treatment are not reflected in the Corporation's
financial position and have no impact on results of operations.
If the credit-related derivative does not qualify for hedge accounting
treatment or if the Corporation is the seller of credit protection, the
credit-related derivative is marked to market with gains or losses included in
noninterest income.
To accommodate customer needs, PNC also enters into financial derivative
transactions primarily consisting of interest rate swaps, caps, floors and
foreign exchange contracts. Interest rate risk exposure from customer positions
is managed through transactions with other dealers. These positions are recorded
at estimated fair value and changes in value are included in noninterest income.
Additionally, the Corporation enters into other derivative transactions for
risk management purposes that do not qualify for accrual accounting. These
transactions are recorded at estimated fair value and changes in value are
included in noninterest income.
INCOME TAXES
Income taxes are accounted for under the liability method. Deferred tax assets
and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting
and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax
rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to
reverse.
STOCK OPTIONS
For stock options granted at exercise prices not less than the fair market value
of common stock on the date of grant, no compensation expense is recognized.
EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE
Basic earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net income adjusted
for preferred stock dividends declared by the weighted-average number of shares
of common stock outstanding.
Diluted earnings per common share is based on net income adjusted for
dividends declared on nonconvertible preferred stock. The weighted-average
number of shares of common stock outstanding is increased by the assumed
conversion of outstanding convertible preferred stock and debentures from the
beginning of the year or date of issuance, if later, and the number of shares of
common stock that would be issued assuming the exercise of stock options and the
issuance of incentive shares. Such adjustments to net income and the
weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding are made only when
such adjustments are expected to dilute earnings per common share.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities," as amended by SFAS No. 137 and No. 138,
which is required to be adopted effective January 1, 2001. The statement will
require the Corporation to recognize all derivatives on the balance sheet at
fair value. Derivatives that are not designated as hedges must be adjusted to
their fair value through earnings. If the derivative is designated as a hedge,
depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in its fair value either will be
offset against the changes in fair value or expected future cash flows of the
hedged assets, liabilities or firm commitments through earnings or recognized in
accumulated other comprehensive income until the hedged items are recognized in
earnings. The ineffective portion of a derivative's change in fair value will be
immediately recognized in earnings.
The Corporation adopted the new statement effective January 1, 2001. As a
result, the Corporation recognized an after-tax loss from the cumulative effect
of a change in accounting principle of $5 million, to be reported in the
consolidated statement of income for the quarter ended March 31, 2001, and an
after-tax increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss of $4 million. The
impact of the adoption of this standard related to the residential mortgage
banking business that was sold will be reflected in the results of discontinued
operations in the first quarter of 2001.
67 |
SFAS No. 140, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets
and Extinguishments of Liabilities" (a replacement of SFAS No. 125) was issued
in September 2000 and replaces SFAS No. 125. Although SFAS No. 140 has changed
many of the rules regarding securitizations, it continues to require an entity
to recognize the financial and servicing assets it controls and the liabilities
it has incurred and to derecognize financial assets when control has been
surrendered in accordance with the criteria provided in the standard. As
required, the Corporation will apply the new rules prospectively to transactions
beginning in the second quarter of 2001. Based on current circumstances,
management believes that the application of the new rules will not have a
material impact on the Corporation's financial position or results of
operations. SFAS No. 140 requires certain disclosures pertaining to
securitization transactions effective for fiscal years ending after December 15,
2000. These disclosures are included in Note 12.
NOTE 2 DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
On October 2, 2000, PNC announced that it reached a definitive agreement to sell
its residential mortgage banking business. The capital made available by the
sale will be redeployed in a number of ways, which may include repurchasing
common stock, continuing to reduce balance sheet leverage, reducing debt and
making targeted investments in higher-growth businesses. The amount of capital
available for redeployment and the income statement impact of the sale will
depend on fair market values and other factors, and will not be determined until
final settlement. The transaction closed on January 31, 2001.
Earnings for the residential mortgage banking business for the years ended
December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998 were $65 million, $62 million and $35 million,
respectively, and are reflected in discontinued operations throughout the
Corporation's financial statements. Earnings and net assets of the residential
mortgage banking business are shown separately on one line in the income
statement and balance sheet, respectively, for all periods presented.

NOTE 3 SALE OF SUBSIDIARY STOCK
PNC recognizes as income the gain from the sale of stock by its subsidiaries.
The gain is the difference between PNC's basis in the stock and the proceeds per
share received. PNC provides applicable taxes on the gain.
In October 1999, BlackRock, Inc. ("BlackRock"), a majority-owned investment
management subsidiary of the Corporation, issued nine million shares of class A
common stock at $14.00 per share in an initial public offering ("IPO"). Prior to
the IPO, PNC and BlackRock's management owned approximately 82% and 18%,
respectively, of BlackRock's outstanding common stock. Proceeds from the sale
were approximately $115 million and resulted in PNC recording a pretax gain in
the amount of $64 million or $59 million after tax. As of December 31, 2000, PNC
owned approximately 70% of BlackRock.

NOTE 5 TRADING ACTIVITIES
Most of PNC's trading activities are designed to provide capital markets
services to customers and not to position the Corporation's portfolio for gains
from market movements. PNC participates in derivatives and foreign exchange
trading as well as "market making" in equity securities as an accommodation to
customers. PNC also engages in trading activities as part of risk management
strategies.
Net trading income in 2000, 1999 and 1998 totaled $91 million, $73 million

The expected weighted-average life of securities available for sale was 4 years
and 5 months at December 31, 2000 compared with 4 years and 7 months at year-end
1999 and 2 years and 8 months at year-end 1998.
At December 31, 2000, the securities available for sale balance included a
net unrealized loss of $54 million that represented the difference between fair
value and amortized cost. The comparable amounts at December 31, 1999 and 1998
were net unrealized losses of $184 million and $28 million, respectively. Net
unrealized gains and losses in the securities available for sale portfolio are
included in accumulated other comprehensive income or loss, net of tax.
Net securities gains, associated with the disposition of securities
available for sale, were $20 million in 2000, $22 million in 1999 and $16
million in 1998. Reflected in the 1999 net securities gains was a $41 million
gain from the sale of Concord EFS, Inc. ("Concord") stock that was partially
offset by a $28 million write-down of an equity investment. Net securities gains
of $9 million in 2000 and $3 million in 1999 related to commercial mortgage
banking activities were included in corporate services revenue.

Loan outstandings and related unfunded commitments are concentrated in PNC's
primary geographic markets. At December 31, 2000, no specific industry
concentration exceeded 6.5% of total outstandings and unfunded commitments.

============================================================
(a) Excludes unfunded commitments related to loans designated for exit.
Commitments to extend credit represent arrangements to lend funds subject to
specified contractual conditions. Commercial commitments are reported net of
participations, assignments and syndications, primarily to financial
institutions, totaling $7.2 billion at December 31, 2000 and 1999. Commitments
generally have fixed expiration dates, may require payment of a fee, and contain
termination clauses in the event the customer's credit quality deteriorates.
Based on the Corporation's historical experience, most commitments expire
unfunded, and therefore cash requirements are substantially less than the total
commitment.
Net outstanding letters of credit totaled $4.0 billion and $4.6 billion at
December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively, and consisted primarily of standby
letters of credit that commit the Corporation to make payments on behalf of
customers if certain specified future events occur. Such instruments are
typically issued to support industrial revenue bonds, commercial paper, and
bid-or-performance related contracts. At year-end 2000, the largest industry
concentration within standby letters of credit was for educational services,
which accounted for approximately 8% of the total. Maturities for standby
letters of credit ranged from 2001 to 2011.
Unfunded commitments and letters of credit related to loans designated for
exit in 1999 were $1.7 billion at December 31, 2000 and $4.8 billion at December
31, 1999.
At December 31, 2000, $8.0 billion of loans were pledged to secure
borrowings and for other purposes.
Certain directors and executive officers of the Corporation and its
subsidiaries, as well as certain affiliated companies of these directors and
officers, were customers of and had loans with subsidiary banks in the ordinary
course of business. All such loans were on substantially the same terms,
including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for
comparable transactions with other customers and did not involve more than a
normal risk of collectibility. The aggregate dollar amounts of these loans were
$29 million and $27 million at December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. During
2000, new loans of $16 million were funded and repayments totaled $14
million.

$76 million and $60 million. The average balance of impaired loans was $277
million in 2000, $243 million in 1999, and $223 million in 1998. There was no
interest income recognized on impaired loans in 2000 and 1999. Interest income
recognized on impaired loans in 1998 was $1 million.
NOTE 10 PREMISES, EQUIPMENT AND LEASEHOLD IMPROVEMENTS
Premises, equipment and leasehold improvements, stated at cost less accumulated

improvements totaled $149 million in 2000, $204 million in 1999 and $149 million
in 1998.
Certain facilities and equipment are leased under agreements expiring at
various dates through the year 2071. Substantially all such leases are accounted
for as operating leases. Rental expense on such leases amounted to $148 million
in 2000, $132 million in 1999 and $101 million in 1998.
At December 31, 2000 and 1999, required minimum annual rentals due on
noncancelable leases having terms in excess of one year aggregated $684 million
and $749 million, respectively. Minimum annual rentals for each of the years
2001 through 2005 are $106 million, $97 million, $89 million, $77 million and
$66 million, respectively.
During 1999, PNC made the decision to sell various branches and office
buildings. Buildings that were designated for sale, but not sold during 1999 are
classified as held for sale. Initial write-downs were recorded in noninterest
expense and generally reflected the difference between book value and appraised
value less selling costs. Write-downs totaled $35 million and subsequent net
gains from disposals totaled $8 million in 1999.
NOTE 11 GOODWILL AND OTHER AMORTIZABLE ASSETS

NOTE 12 SECURITIZATIONS
During 2000, the Corporation securitized commercial mortgage loans totaling $865
million and recorded a pretax gain of $13 million. The Corporation retained
servicing rights in the securitized loans, all of which were sold and removed
from the balance sheet as a part of the securitization, and recorded servicing
rights of $7 million. The servicing rights were valued based on expected future
cash flows considering a 10% discount rate and an 8% prepayment rate on
mortgages with a weighted-average life of 10 years. Cash received from
securitization trusts totaled $877 million.
| 72
The Corporation also retained interest-only strips related to residential
mortgage loans and student loans totaling $16 million and $46 million,
respectively, at December 31, 2000. The loans associated with these retained
interests were sold and removed from the Corporation's balance sheet at
securitization.
NOTE 13 DEPOSITS
The aggregate amount of time deposits with a denomination greater than $100,000
was $5.8 billion and $6.8 billion at December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

The Series F preferred stock is nonconvertible and nonvoting, except in
limited circumstances. Noncumulative dividends are payable quarterly through
September 30, 2001, at a rate of 6.05% and, thereafter, indexed to certain
market indices at rates not less than 6.55% or greater than 12.55%. The Series F
preferred stock is redeemable until September 29, 2001, in the event of certain
amendments to the Internal Revenue Code, at a declining redemption price from
$51.50 to $50.50 per share. After September 29, 2001, the Series F preferred
stock may be redeemed at $50 per share.
During 2000, the Board of Directors adopted a shareholders rights plan
providing for issuance of share purchase rights. If a person or group becomes
beneficial owner of 10% or more of PNC's common stock, all holders of the
rights, other than such person or group, may purchase PNC common stock or
equivalent preferred stock at half of market value.
The Corporation has a dividend reinvestment and stock purchase plan.
Holders of preferred stock and common stock may participate in the plan, which
provides that additional shares of common stock may be purchased at market value
with reinvested dividends and voluntary cash payments. Common shares purchased
pursuant to this plan were: 649,334 shares in 2000, 567,266 shares in 1999 and
596,179 shares in 1998.
At December 31, 2000, the Corporation had reserved approximately 10.9
million common shares to be issued in connection with certain stock plans and
the conversion of certain debt and equity securities.
NOTE 17 REGULATORY MATTERS
The Corporation is subject to the regulations of certain federal and state
agencies and undergoes periodic examinations by such regulatory authorities.
Neither the Corporation nor any of its subsidiaries is subject to written
regulatory agreements.
Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt
corrective action, the Corporation must meet specific capital guidelines that
involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities and certain
off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices.
Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and
possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken,
could have a direct material effect on PNC's financial condition and results of
operations. The Corporation's capital amounts and classification are also
subject to qualitative judgments by regulatory agencies about components, risk
weightings and other factors.
The following table sets forth regulatory capital ratios for PNC and its
only significant bank subsidiary, PNC Bank, N.A.:

(a) Includes discontinued operations
The access to and cost of funding new business initiatives including
acquisitions, the ability to pay dividends, deposit insurance costs, and the
level and nature of regulatory oversight depend, in large part, on a financial
institution's capital strength. The minimum regulatory capital ratios are 4% for
Tier I risk-based, 8% for total risk-based and 3% for leverage. However,
regulators may require higher capital levels when particular circumstances
warrant. To qualify as well capitalized, regulators require banks to maintain
capital ratios of at least 6% for Tier I risk-based, 10% for total risk-based
and 5% for leverage. At December 31, 2000, the Corporation and each bank
subsidiary met the well capitalized capital ratio requirements.
Dividends that may be paid by subsidiary banks to the parent company are
subject to certain legal limitations and also may be impacted by capital needs,
regulatory requirements, corporate policies, contractual restrictions and other
factors. Without regulatory approval, the amount available for payment of
dividends by all subsidiary banks was $634 million at December 31, 2000.
Under federal law, bank subsidiaries generally may not extend credit to the
parent company or its nonbank subsidiaries on terms and under circumstances that
are not substantially the same as comparable extensions of credit to
nonaffiliates. No extension of credit may be made to the parent company or a
nonbank subsidiary which is in excess of 10% of the capital stock and surplus of
such bank subsidiary or in excess of 20% of the capital and surplus of such bank
subsidiary as to aggregate extensions of credit to the parent company and its
subsidiaries. In certain circumstances, federal regulatory authorities may
impose more
| 74
restrictive limitations. Such extensions of credit, with limited exceptions,
must be fully collateralized. The maximum amount available under statutory
limitations for transfer from subsidiary banks to the parent company in the form
of loans and dividends approximated 18% of consolidated net assets at December
31, 2000.
Federal Reserve Board regulations require depository institutions to
maintain cash reserves with the Federal Reserve Bank. During 2000, subsidiary
banks maintained reserves which averaged $113 million.

============================================================================
The Corporation uses a variety of off-balance-sheet financial derivatives as
part of the overall risk management process and to manage interest rate, market
and credit risk inherent in the Corporation's business activities. Financial
derivatives involve, to varying degrees, interest rate and credit risk in excess
of the amount recognized on the balance sheet but less than the notional amount
of the contract. For interest rate swaps and purchased interest rate caps and
floors, only periodic cash payments and, with respect to such caps and floors,
premiums are exchanged. Therefore, cash requirements and exposure to credit risk
are significantly less than the notional value. The Corporation manages these
risks as part of its asset and liability management process and through credit
policies and procedures. The Corporation seeks to minimize the credit risk by
entering into transactions with only a select number of high-quality
institutions, establishing credit limits, requiring bilateral-netting
agreements, and, in certain instances, segregated collateral.
The Corporation uses interest rate swaps and purchased caps and floors to
modify the interest rate characteristics of designated interest-bearing assets
or liabilities from fixed to variable, variable to fixed, or one variable index
to another. At December 31, 2000, $7.0 billion of interest rate swaps, caps and
floors were designated to loans. At December 31, 2000, $135 million of financial
derivatives were designated to securities available for sale. During 2000,
derivative contracts modified the average effective yield on interest-earning
assets from 7.93% to 7.85%. At December 31, 2000, $3.5 billion of interest rate
swaps were designated to interest-bearing liabilities. During 2000, derivative
contracts had no impact on the average rate on interest-bearing liabilities of
5.01%.
PNC also uses interest rate swaps to manage interest rate risk associated
with its commercial mortgage banking activities.
Forward contracts are used to manage risk positions associated with student
lending activities. Substantially all forward contracts mature within 90 days of
origination. Forward contracts are traded in over-the-counter markets and do not
have standardized terms. In the event the counterparty is unable to meet its
contractual obligations, the Corporation may be exposed to selling or purchasing
student loans at prevailing market prices. Unrealized gains or losses are
considered in the lower of cost or market valuation of loans held for sale.
Credit default swaps are used to mitigate credit risk and lower the
required regulatory capital associated with commercial lending activities.
At December 31, 2000 and 1999, the Corporation's exposure to credit losses
with respect to financial derivatives was not material.

NOTE 19 EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
PENSION AND POSTRETIREMENT PLANS
The Corporation has a noncontributory, qualified defined benefit pension plan
covering most employees. Retirement benefits are derived from a cash balance
formula based upon compensation levels, age and length of service. Pension
contributions are based on an actuarially determined amount necessary to fund
total benefits payable to plan participants.
The Corporation also maintains nonqualified supplemental retirement plans
for certain employees. All retirement benefits provided under these plans are
unfunded and any payments to plan participants are made by the Corporation. The
Corporation also provides certain health care and life insurance benefits for
retired employees ("postretirement benefits") through various plans.
A reconciliation of the changes in the benefit obligation for qualified and
nonqualified pension plans and postretirement benefit plans as well as the
change in plan assets for the qualified pension plan is as follows:

The accumulated benefit obligation for these plans was $53 million and $68
million at December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively.
Plan assets primarily consist of listed common stocks, U.S. government and
agency securities and collective funds. Plan assets are managed by BlackRock and
do not include common stock of the Corporation.
The health care cost trend rate declines until it stabilizes at 5.00%

INCENTIVE SAVINGS PLAN
The Corporation sponsors an incentive savings plan that covers substantially all
employees. Under this plan, employee contributions up to 6% of biweekly
compensation, as defined by the plan are matched, subject to Internal Revenue
Code limitations. Contributions to the plan are matched primarily by shares of
PNC common stock held by the Corporation's employee stock ownership plan
("ESOP").
The Corporation makes annual contributions to the ESOP that are at least
equal to the debt service requirements on the ESOP's borrowings less dividends
received by the ESOP. All dividends received by the ESOP are used to pay debt
service. Dividends used for debt service totaled $9 million in 2000, 1999 and
1998. To satisfy additional debt service requirements, PNC contributed $9
million in 1999 and $7 million in 1998.
As the ESOP's borrowings are repaid, shares are allocated to employees who
made contributions during the year based on the proportion of annual debt
service to total debt service. The Corporation includes all ESOP shares as
common shares outstanding in the earnings per share computation. Components of
ESOP shares are:

- ------------------------------------------------------------
Total ......................... 4,498 5,028
============================================================
77 |
Compensation expense related to the portion of contributions matched with ESOP
shares is determined based on the number of ESOP shares allocated. Compensation
expense related to these plans was $30 million, $17 million and $4 million for
2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively.
NOTE 20 STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS
The Corporation has a senior executive long-term incentive award plan
("Incentive Plan") that provides for the granting of incentive stock options,
nonqualified options, stock appreciation rights, performance units and incentive
shares. In any given year, the number of shares of common stock available for
grant under the Incentive Plan may range from 1.5% to 3% of total issued shares
of common stock determined at the end of the preceding calendar year.
STOCK OPTIONS
Options are granted at exercise prices not less than the market value of common
stock on the date of grant. Options granted in 2000 and 1999 become exercisable
in installments after the grant date. Options granted prior to 1999 are mainly
exercisable twelve months after the grant date. Payment of the option price may
be in cash or shares of common stock at market value on the exercise date. A
summary of stock option activity follows:

At December 31, 2000, the weighted-average remaining contractual life of
outstanding options was 7 years and 7 months and options for 5,834,898 shares of
common stock were exercisable at a weighted-average price of $45.96 per share.
The grant-date fair value of options granted in 2000 was $9.86 per option.
Options for 82,000 shares of common stock were granted in 1999 with an exercise
price in excess of the market value on the date of grant. There were no options
granted in excess of market value in 2000. Shares of common stock available for
the granting of options under the Incentive Plan and the predecessor plans were
10,584,683 at December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998.
INCENTIVE SHARE AWARDS
In 1998, incentive share awards potentially representing 362,250 shares of
common stock were granted to certain senior executives pursuant to the Incentive
Plan. Issuance of restricted shares pursuant to these incentive awards is
subject to the market price of PNC's common stock equaling or exceeding
specified levels for defined periods. The restricted period ends two years after
the issue date. During the restricted period, the recipient receives dividends
and can vote the shares. If the recipient leaves the Corporation before the end
of the restricted period, the shares will be forfeited. At December 31, 2000,
the incentive share awards granted in 1998 had not met the specified levels
required for issuance of restricted stock. In 2000, incentive share awards
potentially representing 606,000 shares of common stock were granted to certain
senior executives pursuant to the Incentive Plan. Of this amount, the grant of
105,000 shares is subject to shareholder approval. One-half of any shares of
restricted stock issued pursuant to these awards will vest after 3 years and
one-half vest after year 4. Shares awarded, if any, under this grant will be
offset on a share-for-share basis by any shares received by the executive from
the 1998 grant. There were 66,000 incentive shares forfeited in 2000, no
forfeitures in 1999 and 12,000 incentive shares forfeited in 1998. In addition,
245,000 shares of restricted stock were granted to senior executives with a
3-year vesting period of which the grant of 60,000 shares is subject to
shareholder approval. Compensation expense recognized for incentive share awards
was $8 million, $12 million and $15 million in 2000, 1999 and 1998,
respectively.
EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN
The Corporation's employee stock purchase plan ("ESPP") has approximately 3.0
million shares available for issuance. Persons who have been continuously
employed for at least one year are eligible to participate. Participants
purchase the Corporation's common stock at 85% of the lesser of fair market
value on the first or last day of each offering period. No charge to earnings is
recorded with respect to the ESPP. Shares issued pursuant to the ESPP were as
follows:

For purposes of computing pro forma results, PNC estimated the fair value of
stock options and ESPP shares using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.
The model requires the use of numerous assumptions, many of which are
highly subjective in nature. Therefore, the pro forma results are estimates of
results of operations as if compensation expense had been recognized for all
stock-based compensation plans and are not indicative of the impact on future
periods. The following assumptions were used in the option pricing model for
purposes of estimating pro forma results. The dividend yield represents average
yields over the previous three-year period. Volatility is measured using the
fluctuation in quarter-end closing stock prices over a five-year period.

NOTE 22 SEGMENT REPORTING
PNC operates seven major businesses engaged in community banking, corporate
banking, real estate finance, asset-based lending, wealth management, asset
management and global fund services: Community Banking, Corporate Banking, PNC
Real Estate Finance, PNC Business Credit, PNC Advisors, BlackRock and PFPC.
Business results are presented based on PNC's management accounting
practices and the Corporation's management structure. There is no comprehensive,
authoritative body of guidance for management accounting equivalent to generally
accepted accounting principles; therefore, PNC's business results are not
necessarily comparable with similar information for any other financial services
institution. Financial results are presented, to the extent practicable, as if
each business operated on a stand-alone basis.
The presentation of business results was changed to reflect the
Corporation's operating structure during 2000. Middle market and equipment
leasing activities (previously included in Community Banking) are reported in
Corporate Banking. In addition, PNC Real Estate Finance and PNC Business Credit
are reported separately within PNC Secured Finance. Regional real estate lending
activities (previously included in Community Banking) are reported in PNC Real
Estate Finance. Business financial results for 2000, 1999 and 1998 are presented
consistent with this structure.
The management accounting process uses various balance sheet and income
statement assignments and transfers to measure performance of the businesses.
Methodologies change from time to time as management accounting practices are
enhanced and businesses change. Securities or borrowings and related net
interest income are assigned based on the net asset or liability position of
each business. Capital is assigned based on management's assessment of inherent
risks and equity levels at independent companies providing similar products and
services. The allowance for credit losses is allocated to the businesses based
on management's assessment of risk inherent in the loan portfolios. Support
areas not directly aligned with the businesses are allocated primarily based on
the utilization of services.
Total business financial results differ from consolidated results from
continuing operations primarily due to differences between management accounting
practices and generally accepted accounting principles, divested and exited
businesses, equity management activities, minority interests, residual asset and
liability management activities, eliminations and unassigned items, the impact
of which is reflected in the "Other" category.

Real and personal property, lease financing, loan customer relationships,
deposit customer intangibles, retail branch networks, fee-based businesses, such
as asset management and brokerage, trademarks and brand names are excluded from
the amounts set forth in the previous table. Accordingly, the aggregate fair
value amounts presented do not represent the underlying value of the
Corporation.
Fair value is defined as the estimated amount at which a financial
instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties,
or other than in a forced or liquidation sale. However, it is not management's
intention to immediately dispose of a significant portion of such financial
instruments, and unrealized gains or losses should not be interpreted as a
forecast of future earnings and cash flows. The derived fair values are
subjective in nature, involve uncertainties and significant judgment and,
therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could
significantly impact the derived fair value estimates.
The following methods and assumptions were used in estimating fair value
amounts for financial instruments.
GENERAL
For short-term financial instruments realizable in three months or less, the
carrying amount reported in the consolidated balance sheet approximates fair
value. Unless otherwise stated, the rates used in discounted cash flow analyses
are based on market yield curves.
CASH AND SHORT-TERM ASSETS
The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheet for cash and
short-term investments approximate fair values primarily due to their short-term
nature. For purposes of this disclosure only, short-term assets include due from
banks, interest-earning deposits with banks, federal funds sold and resale
agreements, trading securities, customer's acceptance liability and accrued
interest receivable.
SECURITIES AVAILABLE FOR SALE
The fair value of securities available for sale is based on quoted market
prices, where available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair value
is estimated using the quoted market prices of comparable instruments.
NET LOANS AND LOANS HELD FOR SALE
Fair values are estimated based on the discounted value of expected net cash
flows incorporating assumptions about prepayment rates, credit losses and
servicing fees and costs. For revolving home equity loans, this fair value does
not include any amount for new loans or the related fees that will be generated
from the existing customer relationships. In the case of nonaccrual loans,
scheduled cash flows exclude interest payments. The carrying value of loans held
for sale approximates fair value.
COMMERCIAL MORTGAGE SERVICING RIGHTS
The fair value of commercial mortgage servicing rights is estimated based on the
present value of future cash flows.
DEPOSITS
The carrying amounts of noninterest-bearing demand and interest-bearing money
market and savings deposits approximate fair values. For time deposits, which
include foreign deposits, fair values are estimated based on the discounted
value of expected net cash flows taking into account current interest rates.
BORROWED FUNDS
The carrying amounts of federal funds purchased, commercial paper, acceptances
outstanding and accrued interest payable are considered to be their fair value
because of their short-term nature. For all other borrowed funds, fair values
are estimated based on the discounted value of expected net cash flows taking
into account current interest rates.
UNFUNDED LOAN COMMITMENTS AND LETTERS OF CREDIT
Fair values for commitments to extend credit and letters of credit are estimated
based on the amount of deferred fees and the creditworthiness of the
counterparties.
FINANCIAL AND OTHER DERIVATIVES
The fair value of derivatives is estimated based on the discounted value of the
expected net cash flows. These fair values represent the estimated amounts the
Corporation would receive or pay to terminate the contracts, taking into account
current interest rates.
NOTE 27 UNUSED LINE OF CREDIT
At December 31, 2000, the Corporation maintained a line of credit in the amount
of $500 million, none of which was drawn. This line is available for general
corporate purposes and expires in 2003.
