State Street Corporation Announces Additional Capital Action with Full Redemption of Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock Series “E”


State Street Corporation (NYSE:STT) today announced that it will redeem all of its outstanding shares of non-cumulative perpetual preferred stock Series E (represented by depositary shares, each representing a 1/4000th interest in a share of Series E preferred stock)(the “Redemption”) on December 15, 2019 (the “Redemption Date”), for cash at a redemption price of $100,000 per share (equivalent to $25.00 per depositary share) plus all dividends that have been declared but not paid up to but not including the Redemption Date.

The Redemption is in addition to State Street’s original capital plan, submitted as part of the 2019 Comprehensive Capital Analysis and Review (CCAR) cycle and previously announced on June 27, 2019, and has received approval from the Federal Reserve.

“We are pleased that State Street is able to continue to optimize its capital structure through the full redemption of approximately $750 million of preferred stock.” said Ron O’Hanley, President and Chief Executive Officer. “The balance sheet repositioning work that we undertook last year, coupled with our strong capital position, has enabled us to further optimize our capital mix, benefitting our shareholders.”

“This initial action on our capital stack is the result of active balance sheet management under existing capital rules. We will continue to review potential changes to leverage ratio rules in order to further optimize our mix of capital,” added Eric Aboaf, Chief Financial Officer.

State Street also announced that a cash dividend of $1,500.00 per share of Series E preferred stock (or approximately $0.3750 per depositary share) has been declared for the period from September 16, 2019, the last dividend payment date, up to but not including the Redemption Date, resulting in a total redemption price of $101,500 per share of Series E preferred stock (or approximately $25.3750 per depositary share). From and after the Redemption Date, no shares of Series E preferred stock will be deemed outstanding and the only remaining rights of holders of the Series E preferred stock will be to receive payment of such redemption price. Because the Redemption Date is not a business day, payment of such redemption price will be made on December 16, 2019. There are currently 7,500 shares of Series E preferred stock outstanding, represented by 30,000,000 depositary shares.
