KeyCorp (NYSE: KEY), which has a major presence in Central New York, earned net income from continuing operations of $196 million, or 21 cents per share, in the first quarter.
That’s up slightly from $195 million, or 20 cents a share, in the year-ago period. Key’s earnings per share also beat analysts’ expectations of 20 cents.
Key incurred $15 million, or one cent per share, of costs associated with a previously announced cost-cutting initiative, the company said.
“Our first quarter results highlight the strength of our business model and the progress we are making to ensure that Key is well-positioned for future growth,” CEO Beth E. Mooney said in a news release. “We continued to experience growth in average loans; however, our customers remained cautious regarding the overall strength of the economy and were somewhat restrained in their borrowing during the quarter following a very strong fourth quarter.”
Cleveland, Ohio–based KeyCorp is the parent company of KeyBank, which has more than 1,000 branches in 14 states.
