Revenues,
net of interest expense, and benefits, claims, and credit losses in the table above are disclosed on an owned basis (under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP)).
If this table were prepared on a managed basis, which includes certain effects of securitization activities, including receivables held for securitization and receivables sold with servicing retained,
there would be no impact to net income, but revenues, net of interest expense, and benefits, claims, and credit losses would each have been increased by $1.166 billion and $1.325 billion
in the 2005 and 2004 first quarters, respectively. Although a managed basis presentation is not in conformity with GAAP, management believes it provides a representation of performance and key
indicators of the credit card business that is consistent with the way management reviews operating performance and allocates resources. Furthermore, investors utilize information about the credit
quality of the entire managed portfolio as the results of both the held and securitized portfolios impact the overall performance of the Cards business.
See the discussion of the Cards business on page 17.

Discontinued
operations represents the operations described in the Company's January 31, 2005 announced agreement for the sale of Citigroup's Travelers Life & Annuity,
substantially all of Citigroup's international insurance business and Citigroup's Argentine pension business to Met Life, Inc. The transaction is subject to certain domestic and international
regulatory approvals, as well as other customary conditions to closing, and is expected to close during the 2005 third quarter. See Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

The
return on average common stockholders' equity is calculated using net income after deducting preferred stock dividends.

Risk
capital is defined as the amount of capital required to absorb potential unexpected economic losses resulting from extremely severe events over a one-year time
period. Return on risk capital is calculated as net income divided by average risk capital. Invested capital is defined as risk capital plus Goodwill and Intangible assets excluding Mortgage Servicing
Rights, which are a component of risk capital. Return on invested capital is calculated using income adjusted to exclude a net internal charge Citigroup levies on the goodwill and intangible assets of
each business offset by each business's share of the rebate of the goodwill and intangible asset charge. Return on risk capital and return on invested capital are non-GAAP performance
measures. Management uses return on risk capital to assess businesses' operating performance and to allocate Citigroup's balance sheet and risk capital capacity. Return on invested capital is used to
assess returns on potential acquisitions and divestitures and to compare long-term performance of businesses with differing proportions of organic and acquired growth. For a further
discussion on risk capital, see page 36.
