6 We make statements in this presentation, and we may from time to time make other statements, regarding our outlook or expectations for earnings, revenues, expenses and/or other matters regarding or affecting PNC that are forward-looking
statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as believe, expect, anticipate, intend, outlook, estimate, forecast, project and other similar words and expressions. Forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties, which change over time. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. We do not assume any duty and do not undertake to update our forward-looking statements. Because forward-looking statements are subject to assumptions and uncertainties, actual results or future events could differ, possibly materially, from those that we anticipated in our forward-looking statements, and future results could differ materially from our historical performance. Our forward-looking statements are subject to the following principal risks and uncertainties. We
provide greater detail regarding some of these factors in our Form 10- K
for the year ended December 31, 2005 and in our 2006 Form 10-Qs, including in the Risk Factors and Risk Management sections of those reports. Our forward- looking statements may also be subject to other risks and uncertainties, including those that we may discuss elsewhere in this presentation or in our
filings with the SEC, accessible on the SECs website at www.sec.gov and on or through our corporate website at www.pnc.com under About PNC Investor Relations Financial Information. Our business and operating results are affected by business and economic conditions
generally or specifically in the principal markets in which we do business. We are affected by changes in our customers financial performance, as well as changes in customer preferences and behavior,
including as a result of changing economic conditions. The value of our assets and liabilities as well as our overall financial performance
are affected by changes in interest rates or in valuations in the debt and equity markets. Actions by the Federal Reserve and other government agencies,
including those that impact money supply and market interest rates, can affect our activities and financial results. Competition can have an impact on customer acquisition, growth and retention, as well
as on our credit spreads and product pricing, which can affect market share, deposits and revenues. Our ability to implement our One PNC initiative, as well as other business initiatives
and strategies we may pursue, could affect our financial performance over
the next several years. Our ability to grow successfully through acquisitions is impacted by a number of risks
and uncertainties related both to the acquisition transactions themselves
and to the integration of the acquired businesses into PNC after closing. These uncertainties are present in transactions such as our pending acquisition of Mercantile Bankshares Corporation. Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information |
7 Legal and regulatory developments could have an impact on our ability to operate our
businesses or our financial condition or results of operations or our
competitive position or reputation. Reputational impacts, in turn, could affect matters such as business generation and retention, our ability to attract and retain management, liquidity and funding. These legal and regulatory
developments could include: (a) the unfavorable resolution of legal proceedings or regulatory and other governmental inquiries; (b) increased litigation risk from recent regulatory and other governmental
developments; (c) the results of the regulatory examination process,
our failure to satisfy the requirements of agreements with governmental agencies, and regulators future use of supervisory and enforcement tools; (d) legislative and regulatory
reforms, including changes to laws and regulations involving tax, pension,
and the protection of confidential customer information; and (e) changes in accounting policies and principles. Our business and operating results are affected by our ability to identify and
effectively manage risks inherent in our businesses, including, where appropriate, through the effective use of third-party insurance and capital
management techniques. Our ability to anticipate and respond to technological changes can have an impact on
our ability to respond to customer needs and to meet competitive
demands. The adequacy of our intellectual property protection, and the extent of any costs
associated with obtaining rights in intellectual property claimed by others, can impact our business and operating results. Our business and operating results can be affected by widespread natural disasters, terrorist activities or international hostilities, either as a
result of the impact on the economy and financial and capital markets
generally or on us or on our customers, suppliers or other counterparties specifically. Also, risks and uncertainties that could affect the results anticipated in
forward-looking statements or from historical performance relating to our interest in BlackRock, Inc. are discussed in more detail in BlackRocks 2005 Form
10-K, including in the Risk Factors section, and in BlackRocks other filings with the SEC, accessible on the SECs website and on or through
BlackRocks website at www.blackrock.com. In addition, our pending
acquisition of Mercantile Bankshares presents us with a number of risks and uncertainties related both to the acquisition transaction itself and to the integration of the acquired businesses into PNC after closing.
These risks and uncertainties include the following: Completion of the transaction is dependent on, among other things, receipt of
regulatory and Mercantile shareholder approvals, the timing of which cannot
be predicted with precision at this point and which may not be received at all. The impact of the completion of the transaction on PNCs financial statements will be affected by the timing of the transaction. The transaction may be more expensive to complete than anticipated, including as a
result of unexpected factors or events. Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information (continued) |
8 The integration of Mercantiles business and operations with those of PNC, which
will include conversion of Mercantiles different systems and procedures, may take longer than anticipated, may be more costly than anticipated, and may have unanticipated adverse results relating to Mercantiles or PNCs existing businesses. The anticipated benefits, including anticipated strategic gains and anticipated cost
savings and other synergies of the transaction, may be significantly harder or take longer to be realized than anticipated or may not be achieved in their entirety, including as a result of unexpected factors or events, and attrition in key client, partner and other relationships relating to the transaction
may be greater than expected. The anticipated benefits to PNC are dependent in part on Mercantiles business
performance in the future, and there can be no assurance as to actual future results, which could be impacted by various factors, including the risks and
uncertainties generally related to PNCs and Mercantiles performance (with respect to Mercantile, see Mercantiles SEC reports, accessible on the
SECs website) or due to factors related to the acquisition of Mercantile and the process of integrating it into PNC. In addition to the pending Mercantile Bankshares transaction, we grow our business from time to time by acquiring other financial services companies. Acquisitions in general present us with risks other than those presented by the nature of the business acquired. In particular, acquisitions may be substantially more expensive to complete (including as a result of costs incurred in connection with the integration of
the acquired company) and the anticipated benefits (including anticipated cost savings and strategic gains) may be significantly harder or take longer to achieve than expected. In some cases, acquisitions involve our entry into new businesses or new geographic or other markets, and these situations also present risks resulting from our inexperience in these new areas. As a regulated financial institution, our pursuit of attractive acquisition opportunities could be negatively impacted due to
regulatory delays or other regulatory issues. Regulatory and/or legal issues related to the pre-acquisition operations of an acquired business may cause
reputational harm to PNC following the acquisition and integration of the acquired business into ours and may result in additional future costs and expenses arising as a result of those issues. Any annualized, proforma, estimated, third party or consensus numbers in this
presentation are used for illustrative or comparative purposes only and may not reflect actual results. Any consensus earnings estimates are calculated based on the earnings projections made by analysts who cover that company. The analysts opinions, estimates or forecasts (and therefore the consensus earnings estimates) are theirs alone, are not those of PNC or its management, and may not reflect PNCs, Mercantiles or other companys actual or anticipated
results. Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information (continued) |
