Citigroup (C)

POSITIVE EPS EXCLUDING THE $0.24 IMPACT OF RESETTING THE CONVERSION PRICE
OF CERTAIN PREFERRED SHARES

NET INCOME PRIMARILY DRIVEN BY IMPROVED PERFORMANCE IN INSTITUTIONAL
CLIENTS GROUP AND CONTINUED EXPENSE REDUCTIONS

New York, NY, April 17, 2009 — Citigroup Inc. (NYSE: C) today reported net income for the first quarter of 2009 of $1.6 billion and a loss per share of $0.18, based on 5,385 million shares outstanding.  Revenues of $24.8 billion were driven by strong results in the Institutional Clients Group, partially offset by net write-downs.  Results also include $7.3 billion in net credit losses and a $2.7 billion net loan loss reserve build.

The $0.18 loss per share reflected the reset in January 2009 of the conversion price of the $12.5 billion convertible preferred stock issued in a private offering in January 2008.  This did not have an impact on net income but resulted in a reduction to income available to common shareholders of $1.3 billion or $0.24 per share.  Without this reduction, earnings per share were positive.  The loss per share also reflected preferred stock dividends, which did not impact net income but reduced income available to common shareholders by $1.3 billion.
