Summary
Citigroup Inc.'s 2012 Form 10-K filing reveals a company in the midst of a significant transformation, continuing to simplify its business model and focus on its core Citicorp franchise while winding down Citi Holdings. The company reported a net income of $7.5 billion and diluted EPS of $2.44 for 2012. Despite facing a challenging operating environment, including spread compression and elevated legal and related costs, Citicorp's core businesses showed momentum, with revenues increasing by 5%. The wind-down of Citi Holdings continued, with assets declining by 31% year-over-year, though the segment still incurred a net loss of $6.6 billion. Key financial developments include a negative impact from credit valuation adjustments (CVA) and debt valuation adjustments (DVA) of $2.3 billion pretax, and a significant net loss of $2.9 billion after-tax related to the sale of minority investments, primarily the Morgan Stanley Smith Barney (MSSB) joint venture. Excluding these items, net income increased by 18% compared to 2011. Capital ratios remained strong, with Tier 1 Common and Tier 1 Capital ratios at 12.7% and 14.1%, respectively, at year-end 2012. The company is actively managing its expenses, which decreased 1% year-over-year, and focusing on operational efficiency to drive improved returns.
