"Our relationship banking focus and our customers' strength in this uncertain national economy drove a 3 percent increase in average loans and a 4 percent increase in average deposits in 2013," said Ralph W. Babb Jr., chairman and chief executive officer. "2013 net income increased 9 percent, primarily as a result of tight expense control and strong credit quality, offsetting the headwinds of the continuing low rate environment.

"Average loans in the fourth quarter 2013 were stable, compared to the prior quarter, while growth trends throughout the quarter were positive, resulting in a broad-based, $1.3 billion increase in period-end loans. Earnings in the fourth quarter of 2013, compared to the prior quarter, reflected greater than expected purchase accounting accretion. This was offset by slightly lower fee income, following strong fee generation in the third quarter and the impact of slower economic activity, as well as additional costs related to regulatory compliance.

"Our solid capital position supports our growth and provides us the ability to return excess capital to our shareholders. We repurchased 7.4 million shares in 2013 under our share repurchase program; together with dividends we returned 73 percent of 2013 net income to shareholders. We recently filed our 2014-2015 capital plan with the Federal Reserve, which is expected to release its summary results in March 2014.

"In this low rate environment, our conservative, consistent approach to banking continues to serve us well, including our credit management, investment strategy, and capital position. We are pleased with our footprint, where there are many opportunities to leverage our relationship banking strategy by providing our customers with the products and services they desire."

Full-Year 2013 and Fourth Quarter Overview

Full-Year 2013 Compared to Full-Year 2012

    --  Net income of $569 million for 2013 increased $48 million, or 9 percent,
        compared to 2012.
    --  Average total loans increased $1.1 billion, or 3 percent, to $44.4
        billion, primarily reflecting an increase of $1.7 billion, or 7 percent,
        in commercial loans, partially offset by a decrease of $686 million, or
        6 percent, in combined commercial mortgage and real estate construction
        loans. The increase in commercial loans was primarily driven by
        increases in National Dealer Services, general Middle Market and Energy,
        partially offset by decreases in Mortgage Banker Finance and Corporate
        Banking.
    --  Average total deposits increased $2.2 billion, or 4 percent, to $51.7
        billion, reflecting increases of $1.4 billion, or 7 percent, in
        noninterest-bearing deposits and $803 million, or 3 percent, in
        interest-bearing deposits.
    --  Net interest income of $1.7 billion decreased by $56 million, or 3
        percent, primarily as a result of a decrease in yields and a decrease in
        accretion of the purchase discount on the acquired loan portfolio,
        partially offset by a decrease in funding costs. Loan yields decreased
        primarily as a result of shifts in the average loan portfolio mix and
        lower LIBOR rates, while yields on mortgage-backed securities declined
        primarily due to prepayments on higher-yielding securities and
        reinvestments at lower yields.
    --  Credit quality of the loan portfolio remained strong. The provision for
        credit losses declined $33 million to $46 million in 2013 compared to
        2012. Net credit-related charge-offs decreased $97 million to $73
        million.
    --  Noninterest income increased $8 million, or 1 percent, to $826 million
        in 2013. The increase reflected an increase of $13 million in
        customer-driven fee income, partially offset by a decrease of $5 million
        in noncustomer-driven categories.
    --  Noninterest expenses decreased $79 million, or 4 percent, to $1.7
        billion in 2013, primarily reflecting decreases of $35 million in merger
        and restructuring charges and $23 million in litigation-related
        expenses, as well as declines in several other categories of noninterest
        expenses, reflecting tight expense control.

Fourth Quarter 2013 Compared to Third Quarter 2013

    --  Average total loans remained stable at $44.1 billion, as increases in
        National Dealer Services and Technology and Life Sciences were offset by
        a decrease in Mortgage Banker Finance. Period-end total loans increased
        $1.3 billion, or 3 percent, to $45.5 billion, reflecting increases in
        almost all lines of business.
    --  Average total deposits increased $904 million, or 2 percent, to $52.8
        billion, reflecting increases in most lines of business and all primary
        markets. Period-end deposits increased $383 million, or 1 percent, to
        $53.3 billion, primarily reflecting an increase of $404 million in
        interest-bearing deposits.
    --  Net interest income increased $18 million, or 4 percent, to $430 million
        in the fourth quarter 2013, compared to $412 million in the third
        quarter 2013, primarily reflecting a $15 million increase in accretion
        on the acquired portfolio and a $5 million increase in interest
        collected from nonaccrual loans. The increase in accretion resulted from
        better than expected collections on the purchased credit-impaired
        portfolio due to improvements in the economic environment.
    --  The provision for credit losses was $9 million in the fourth quarter
        2013, compared to $8 million in the third quarter 2013, reflecting
        continued strong credit quality.
    --  Noninterest income decreased $10 million to $204 million in the fourth
        quarter 2013, reflecting decreases of $5 million in customer-driven fee
        income and $5 million in noncustomer-driven income.
    --  Noninterest expenses increased $12 million to $429 million in the fourth
        quarter 2013, primarily reflecting an increase of $7 million in salaries
        expense, of which $6 million was due to an increase in deferred
        compensation, and a $5 million increase in litigation-related expenses
        from a low third quarter amount.
    --  Capital remained solid at December 31, 2013, as evidenced by an
        estimated Tier 1 common capital ratio of 10.60 percent and a tangible
        common equity ratio of 10.11 percent.

    ------------------      ------                      ------                      ------
    --  Net interest income of $430 million in the fourth quarter 2013 increased
        $18 million compared to the third quarter 2013.
        --  Interest on loans increased $16 million, primarily reflecting an
            increase in the accretion of the purchase discount on the acquired
            loan portfolio ($15 million) and an increase in interest collected
            on nonaccrual loans ($5 million), partially offset by the impact of
            loan portfolio dynamics ($4 million), including a decline in LIBOR
            and other shifts in portfolio mix.
        --  Interest on mortgage-backed investment securities increased net
            interest income by $1 million, primarily as a result of improvement
            in yields due to slowing prepayment speeds.
        --  A decrease in funding costs increased net interest income by $1
            million, primarily reflecting lower deposit pricing and a shift in
            the deposit mix.
    --  The net interest margin of 2.86 percent increased 7 basis points
        compared to the third quarter 2013. The increase in net interest margin
        was primarily due to an increase in the accretion of the purchase
        discount on the acquired loan portfolio (+10 basis points), an increase
        in interest collected on nonaccrual loans (+3 basis points), the impact
        of yield improvements on mortgage-backed securities (+1 basis point) and
        lower funding costs (+1 basis point), partially offset by an increase in
        excess liquidity (-5 basis points) and lower loan yields (-3 basis
        points).
    --  Average earning assets increased $1.0 billion to $59.9 billion in the
        fourth quarter 2013, compared to the third quarter 2013, reflecting an
        increase of $1.1 billion in excess liquidity due to deposit growth.

Noninterest Income
Noninterest income decreased $10 million to $204 million for the fourth quarter 2013, compared to $214 million for the third quarter 2013. Customer-driven fee income decreased $5 million and noncustomer-driven income decreased $5 million. The decrease in customer-driven fee income reflected a $2 million decrease in letter of credit fees and small decreases in other categories of noninterest income, partially offset by a $2 million increase in fiduciary income. The decrease in noncustomer-driven income was primarily due to a $6 million decrease in warrant income and a $3 million decrease in income on bank-owned life insurance, partially offset by a $6 million increase in deferred compensation plan asset returns, which was offset by an increase in deferred compensation expense as described below.

Noninterest Expenses
Noninterest expenses of $429 million in the fourth quarter 2013 increased $12 million compared to the third quarter 2013. Excluding a $6 million increase in deferred compensation expense, noninterest expenses increased $6 million, primarily reflecting the impact of a $5 million favorable outcome in litigation in the third quarter. The $6 million increase in deferred compensation expense (included in salaries expense) was offset by the increase in deferred compensation asset returns in noninterest income. Incentive compensation remained unchanged from the elevated third quarter level as financial performance relative to peers continued to improve.

Credit Quality
"The provision for credit losses was $9 million in the fourth quarter 2013, compared to $8 million in the third quarter 2013, reflecting continued strong credit quality and an increase in loan commitments and outstandings," said Babb. "Net credit-related charge-offs decreased slightly and remain at a very low level."

The $540 million increase in total assets primarily reflected an increase of $1.3 billion in loans, partially offset by decreases of $437 million in excess liquidity and $181 million in investment securities available-for-sale.

There were approximately 182 million common shares outstanding at December 31, 2013. Combined with the dividend of $0.17 per share, share repurchases under the share repurchase program and dividends returned 71 percent of fourth quarter 2013 net income to shareholders.

Comerica's tangible common equity ratio was 10.11 percent at December 31, 2013, an increase of 24 basis points from September 30, 2013. The estimated Tier 1 common capital ratio decreased 12 basis points, to 10.60 percent at December 31, 2013, from September 30, 2013. The estimated Tier 1 common ratio under fully phased-in Basel III capital rules and excluding most elements of AOCI was 10.3 percent percent at December 31, 2013.

Full-Year 2014 Outlook
Management expectations for full-year 2014 compared to full-year 2013, assuming a continuation of the slow growing economy and low rate environment, are as follows:

    --  Average loan growth consistent with 2013, reflecting stabilization in
        Mortgage Banker Finance near average fourth quarter 2013 levels,
        improving trends in Commercial Real Estate and continued focus on
        pricing and structure discipline.
    --  Net interest income modestly lower, reflecting a decrease in purchase
        accounting accretion, to $10 million to $20 million, and the effect of a
        continued low rate environment, partially offset by loan growth.
    --  Provision for credit losses stable as a result of continued strong
        credit quality.
    --  Noninterest income stable, reflecting continued growth in
        customer-driven fee income.
    --  Noninterest expenses lower, reflecting a more than 50 percent reduction
        in pension expense. Increases in merit, healthcare and regulatory costs
        mostly offset by continued expense discipline.
    --  Income tax expense to approximate 28 percent of pre-tax income.

Comerica Incorporated is a financial services company headquartered in Dallas, Texas, and strategically aligned by three major business segments: The Business Bank, The Retail Bank and Wealth Management. Comerica focuses on relationships and helping people and businesses be successful. In addition to Texas, Comerica Bank locations can be found in Arizona, California, Florida and Michigan, with select businesses operating in several other states, as well as in Canada and Mexico.

This press release contains both financial measures based on accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) and non-GAAP based financial measures, which are used where management believes it to be helpful in understanding Comerica's results of operations or financial position. Where non-GAAP financial measures are used, the comparable GAAP financial measure, as well as a reconciliation to the comparable GAAP financial measure, can be found in this press release. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies.

Comerica cautions that the foregoing list of factors is not exclusive. For discussion of factors that may cause actual results to differ from expectations, please refer to our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. In particular, please refer to "Item 1A. Risk Factors" beginning on page 13 of Comerica's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 and on page 68 of the Corporation's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2013. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Comerica does not undertake to update forward-looking statements to reflect facts, circumstances, assumptions or events that occur after the date the forward-looking statements are made.

    (a)            Tier 1 capital and risk-weighted
                   assets as defined by regulation.

    (b)            December 31, 2013 Tier 1 capital
                   and risk-weighted assets are
                   estimated.

    (c)            Estimated ratios based on the
                   standardized approach in the
                   final rule for the U.S. adoption
                   of the Basel III regulatory
                   capital framework and excluding
                   most elements of AOCI.

The Tier 1 common capital ratio removes preferred stock and qualifying trust preferred securities from Tier 1 capital as defined by and calculated in conformity with bank regulations. The Basel III Tier 1 common capital ratio further adjusts Tier 1 common capital and risk-weighted assets to account for the final rule approved by U.S. banking regulators in July 2013 for the U.S. adoption of the Basel III regulatory capital framework. The final Basel III capital rules are effective January 1, 2015 for banking organizations subject to the standardized approach. The tangible common equity ratio removes preferred stock and the effect of intangible assets from capital and the effect of intangible assets from total assets. Tangible common equity per share of common stock removes the effect of intangible assets from common shareholders equity per share of common stock. Comerica believes these measurements are meaningful measures of capital adequacy used by investors, regulators, management and others to evaluate the adequacy of common equity and to compare against other companies in the industry.
