New York,  April 20, 1999 -- The Chase Manhattan  Corporation  (NYSE:CMB)  today
reported  operating  diluted earnings per share of $1.32 in the first quarter of
1999, compared to $1.17 per share in the first quarter of 1998. Reported diluted
earnings  per share were $1.32 in the 1999 first  quarter  and $.80 in the first
quarter of 1998.  Operating earnings and reported net income in the quarter were
each $1.17 billion  compared with $1.05 billion and $725 million,  respectively,
in the first quarter of 1998.


First Quarter 1999 Financial Highlights

- -        Operating revenues increased 10 percent to $5.4 billion.
- -        Operating EPS increased by 13 percent to $1.32.
- -        Shareholder value added (SVA) increased 17 percent to $501 million.
- -        Return on common equity was 21 percent.
- -        Chase repurchased  approximately  $885 million of common stock, on a
         net basis, in the quarter.  Even so, the estimated Tier 1 capital
         ratio rose to 8.4 percent.

"First  quarter  results  demonstrate  the power of  Chase's  balanced  business
portfolio,  as well  as the  significant  opportunities  for  profitable  growth
ahead," said Walter V.  Shipley,  chairman and chief  executive  officer.  "I am
confident  that we have the  right  team and the  right  strategies  in place to
translate the full potential of the franchise into  consistent,  long term value
for the shareholder."

Revenues in the 1999 first quarter were $2.59 billion, an eight percent increase from the prior year. Trading revenues and related net interest income rose 21 percent to $837 million, a new record, benefiting from strong performance in traditional products, including interest rate derivatives, and newer products, such as equity derivatives. Securities gains realized in the quarter were $156 million, compared to $83 million in the year-ago quarter. Investment banking fees were $317 million, 12 percent lower than in the same 1998 quarter, reflecting the overall market decline in leveraged financings offset in part by stronger fees in other areas. Chase continues to be the world's leading provider of corporate debt, ranking first in global loan syndications, while improving its market share in public debt underwriting. In the first quarter of 1999, Chase rose to second in investment grade underwriting, fourth in high yield bond underwriting and ninth in mergers and acquisitions advisory. Private equity-related investment gains in the 1999 first quarter were $325 million, 11 percent higher than in the first quarter of 1998, reflecting continued strength in the equity markets and a more favorable environment for IPOs, as well as the positive impact of maturing investments within the portfolio.

- -------------------------------------- --------------------------------------- GLOBAL SERVICES First Quarter - --------------------------------------- --------------- -------------- -------- Dollars, in millions 1999 O(U) 1Q98 % ---- --------- --- Operating Revenues $728 $58 9% Cash Operating Earnings 114 (5) (4%) Shareholder Value Added 23 (29) (56%) Cash Return on Common Equity 16% -- - --------------------------------------- --------------- -------------- -------- Cash operating earnings within Global Services declined four percent to $114 million. Operating revenues were $728 million, a nine percent increase over the prior year quarter, driven by acquisitions and growth in core custody products. Revenue growth was negatively affected by a decline in balance-related revenues, the revaluation and reallocation of investment portfolios from emerging to developed markets and by a reduction in structured financings. Expenses in the quarter grew in excess of revenues, reflecting ongoing investment spending and costs related to Year 2000. - --------------------------------------- --------------------------------------- NATIONAL CONSUMER SERVICES First Quarter - --------------------------------------- --------------- -------------- -------- Dollars, in millions 1999 O(U) 1Q98 % ---- --------- --- Operating Revenues $2,161 $230 12% Cash Operating Earnings 350 63 22% Shareholder Value Added 134 62 86% Cash Return on Common Equity 21% -- - --------------------------------------- --------------- -------------- -------- National Consumer Services' cash operating earnings rose 22 percent from the prior year quarter to $350 million. Operating revenues of $2.16 billion were 12 percent higher. Operating revenues from cardmember services rose to $1.0 billion, an eight percent increase from first quarter 1998 levels; cash operating earnings rose three percent. These results reflect increased purchase volume and pricing initiatives, partially offset by higher marketing costs. While credit costs increased from first quarter 1998, the credit card charge-off rate declined from fourth quarter 1998 levels. Home finance revenues increased 13 percent to $272 million in the 1999 first quarter. Higher origination volume and servicing balances were offset by a decline in mortgage portfolio net interest income, and higher expenses stemming from greater business volume and technology investment. Regional consumer banking revenues were $577 million, a seven percent increase over first quarter of 1998 levels. Results benefited from growth in managed funds and increased fee income, primarily related to continued strong performance of the Chase debit card. Cash operating earnings rose 25 percent. Revenues from diversified consumer services increased 41 percent, driven by strong growth in the auto finance business, with originations up 14 percent over the prior year quarter, and in Chase's insurance and investment businesses.

Additional Financial Information - - Total operating noninterest expenses were $2.94 billion in the first quarter of 1999, 12 percent above the same 1998 quarter, reflecting technology-related costs, incentive costs tied to higher market-sensitive revenues and a change in the long term compensation program of the Global Bank. - - On a managed basis, credit costs were $655 million in the first quarter of 1999 compared with $628 million in the first quarter of 1998. Nonperforming assets at March 31, 1999 were $1.67 billion compared with $1.61 billion at December 31, 1998, and $1.34 billion at March 31, 1998. Net commercial charge-offs in the first quarter of 1999 were $87 million, compared to $122 million in the fourth quarter of 1998 and $88 million in the first quarter of 1998. - - Total assets at March 31, 1999 were $361 billion compared with $366 billion at both March 31, and December 31, 1998. Estimated risk-weighted assets declined slightly to $288 billion from $289 billion at December 31, 1998. Risk-weighted assets at March 31, 1998 were $281 billion. While the company repurchased approximately $885 million, net, in common stock during the quarter, the estimated Tier 1 capital ratio increased to 8.4 percent from 8.3 percent at December 31, 1998 and 8.1 percent at March 31, 1998. Chase's target range for Tier 1 capital is 8 to 8.25 percent. - - Operating results (revenues, expenses and earnings) exclude the impact of credit card securitizations, restructuring costs and special items. Restructuring costs in the 1998 first quarter included a charge of $320 million (after tax) in connection with initiatives to streamline support functions and realign certain business units. There were no special items in the 1999 first quarter. Chase's news releases and quarterly financial results are available on the Internet at www.chase.com.
