Bank America Earnings a Penny Below Estimates; Profit Off 27%

Bank of America (BAC:NYSE - news) posted fourth-quarter earnings Tuesday that missed analyst estimates by a penny as the Charlotte, N.C.-based bank struggled with higher loan
losses and lower capital markets revenues. As expected, profits dropped about 27%.

The bank posted earnings of $1.39 billion, or 85 cents a share, in line with its estimate at the time of its December warning when it said rising levels of bad loans would weigh on earnings. A consensus estimate from First Call/Thomson
Financial had pegged earnings at 86 cents a share.

In the same period last year, Bank of America earned $1.9 billion, or $1.10 a share, including a merger charge related to the acquisition of Nations Bank.

Bank of America's credit problems are among the most severe for banks this quarter. The bank said the provision for credit losses in the fourth quarter was $1.21 billion, compared with $350 million a year earlier.
