McDONALD & COMPANY INVESTMENTS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) September 25, 1998 NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION ------------------------------ The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of McDonald & Company Investments, Inc. and its subsidiaries, collectively referred to as the "Company". All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal and recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial condition and results of operations for the periods presented have been included. NOTE B - LONG-TERM BORROWINGS ----------------------------- McDonald & Company Securities, Inc. ("McDonald Securities") has outstanding $20,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of 8.24% Subordinated Notes due January 15, 2002. McDonald Securities is required to prepay principal amounts of $5,000,000 on January 15 in each year beginning in 1998. The notes are subordinated in right of payment to all senior indebtedness of McDonald Securities. The principal amount of the notes has been approved by the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. for inclusion in the regulatory capital of McDonald Securities. NOTE C - NET INCOME PER SHARE ----------------------------- In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 128, Earnings per Share "Statement 128", which was required to be adopted on December 15, 1997. Under Statement 128, the Company is required to change the method used to compute earnings per share and to restate all prior periods presented. The impact of Statement 128 on the calculation of earnings per share was not material. Net income per share is based on the average number of shares outstanding during the periods. On July 30, 1997, the Company declared a 100% stock dividend, which was distributed on September 15, 1997, to stockholders of record on August 25, 1997. Share and per share information have been restated to reflect the effect of the stock dividend as if it had occurred at the beginning of the fiscal six months ended September 26, 1997. NOTE D - CONTINGENCIES ---------------------- As is the case with many firms in the securities industry, McDonald Securities is a defendant or co-defendant in a number of lawsuits alleging damages, which are ordinary and routine litigation, incidental to the securities and investment banking business. The Company is contesting the allegations of the complaints in these cases and believes that there are meritorious defenses in each of these lawsuits. Some of the proceedings relate to public underwritings of securities in which McDonald Securities participated as a member of the underwriting syndicate. The Company is also aware of litigation against certain underwriters of offerings in which McDonald Securities was a participant, but where McDonald Securities is not now a defendant. In these latter cases, it is possible that McDonald Securities may be called upon to contribute to settlements or judgments. NOTE E - MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS --------------------------------- On June 15, 1998, the Company entered into an agreement and plan of merger with KeyCorp pursuant to which the Company will be acquired by KeyCorp. The closing of the merger of the Company with and into KeyCorp will occur after the close of trading on Friday, October 23, 1998. At the closing, each outstanding share of the Company's common stock will be converted into the right to receive 1.06 KeyCorp common shares. The merger has been approved by the Company's Board of Directors and stockholders. On September 4, 1998, the Company completed the acquisition of Essex Capital Markets, Inc. (Essex) for a purchase price of $12,700,000. The financial operations of Essex are not material to the Company. (6)

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND --------------------------------------------------------------- RESULTS OF OPERATIONS --------------------- BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT -------------------- McDonald & Company Investments, Inc. (the "Company") operates a full-service regional investment banking, investment advisory and brokerage business through its principal subsidiary, McDonald & Company Securities, Inc. ("McDonald Securities"). The Company is involved in the origination, underwriting, distribution, trading and brokerage of fixed income and equity securities, and provides investment advisory services. The profitability of the Company is sensitive to many factors, including the level of securities trading volume and the volatility and general level of market prices. Many of its activities have high operating costs that do not decrease with reduced levels of activity. Sustained periods of reduced volume, or loss of clients, could have adverse effects upon profitability. On June 15, 1998, the Company entered into an agreement and plan of merger with KeyCorp pursuant to which the Company will be acquired by KeyCorp. The closing of the merger of the Company with and into KeyCorp will occur after the close of trading on Friday, October 23, 1998. At the closing, each outstanding share of the Company's common stock will be converted into the right to receive 1.06 KeyCorp common shares. Each holder of Company common stock who would otherwise be entitled to a fractional interest in a KeyCorp common share will receive cash in lieu thereof. Holders of record of shares of Company common stock immediately prior to the closing will receive transmittal materials after the closing for use in exchanging their certificates that formerly represented shares of Company common stock. Harris Trust Company of New York will act as exchange agent for exchange of the Company common stock converted in the merger. Additional information regarding the merger can be found in the definitive Proxy Statement-Prospectus filed by KeyCorp as part of its Registration Statement on Form S-4 on August 12, 1998, and Proxy Statement Supplement filed by the Company on September 3, 1998, as well as in press releases filed as exhibits 99.1 to the following Forms 8-K filed by the Company: (1) Form 8-K dated June 15, 1998; (2) Form 8-K/A dated June 16, 1998; (3) Form 8-K dated September 15, 1998; and (4) Form 8-K dated October 21, 1998. On September 4, 1998, the Company completed the acquisition of Essex Capital Markets, Inc., "Essex" a privately held, regional investment firm with five offices. Essex has 55 brokers and will operate as a division of the Company. The Company has formulated a comprehensive strategic plan that is periodically reviewed and revised. The plan emphasizes the Company's historical roots as a regional brokerage and investment banking firm. The Company has focused on the Ohio, Michigan and Indiana markets by increasing the number of sales representatives covering individual investors, as well as increasing investment banking activities in this region. The Company's institutional equity and institutional fixed income divisions cover accounts throughout the United States and internationally. The Company is evaluating Year 2000 compliance issues, including exposure related to vendors, software, and other systems to determine whether internal and external concerns are addressed. The Company has established a committee to oversee this evaluation and implementation, which is led by the Senior Managing Director Information Technologies and Operations. Since the Company does not have a significant amount of internal programming, the majority of the exposure and costs related to the Year 2000 problem is through vendors. Most of the costs will be in the form of higher prices for goods and services from vendors. The Company is not able to determine the extent of these costs presently. Management believes that the Company has taken all reasonable precautions to ensure a smooth transition. However, the Company's brokerage business is highly dependent on outside service providers and there can be no guarantee that Year 2000 problems will not be encountered, some of which could potentially have a material adverse effect on the Company's business activities and, accordingly, its results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND --------------------------------------------------------------- RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued) --------------------------------- LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES ------------------------------- The majority of the Company's assets are highly liquid and short-term in nature. Cash and liquid assets, principally receivables from customers, receivables from brokers and dealers, securities purchased under agreements to resell, and securities owned represented approximately 86% of the Company's assets at September 25, 1998. These assets are financed by a number of sources, including payables to customers and brokers, short-term borrowings, securities loaned, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, long-term borrowings, and equity capital. At September 25, 1998, McDonald Securities had outstanding $20,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of 8.24% Subordinated Notes due January 15, 2002. McDonald Securities is required to pay principal amounts of $5,000,000 on January 15 in each year beginning in 1998. The notes are subordinated in right of payment to all senior indebtedness and general creditors of McDonald Securities. In addition to providing additional long-term financing, the notes have been approved by the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. for inclusion in McDonald Securities' regulatory capital. Changes in the levels of securities owned and in customer and broker receivables directly affect the Company's financing arrangements. The Company has available lines of credit of $315,000,000, of which $269,113,000 was unused at September 25, 1998. Management believes that funds from operations, available lines of credit, and long-term borrowings provide sufficient resources to meet present and anticipated financial needs. Certain minimum amounts of capital must be maintained by McDonald Securities to satisfy the regulatory requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. The regulatory requirements represent Uniform Net Capital Rules designed to measure the general financial integrity and liquidity of registered broker/dealers and to provide minimum acceptable net capital levels to meet continuing commitments to customers. Net capital, as defined, changes from day to day. At September 25, 1998, McDonald Securities was in compliance with the Uniform Net Capital Rules and had net capital of $81,129,000, which was $66,199,000 in excess of the minimum required. FISCAL THREE AND SIX MONTH PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 25, 1998 AND SEPTEMBER 26, ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1997 ---- Total revenues for the fiscal quarter ended September 25, 1998 were $89,975,000, an increase of $16,405,000, or 23%, from revenues of $73,570,000 for the fiscal quarter ended September 26, 1997. For the fiscal six months ended September 25, 1998, total revenues were $168,967,000 compared to $138,132,000 for the first six months of fiscal 1998, an increase of $30,835,000, or 22%. Net income for the fiscal quarter ended September 25, 1998 was $6,992,000, or $.37 per share, compared with net income of $6,907,000, or $.38 per share, for the fiscal quarter ended September 26, 1997, which represents an increase in net income of 1%. For the fiscal six months ended September 25, 1998, net income was $13,322,000, or $.71 per share, compared to $12,528,000, or $.69 per share for the fiscal six months ended September 26, 1997, an increase of $794,000, or 6%. The average number of basic shares outstanding was 18,663,000 and 18,587,000 for the fiscal three and six months ended September 25, 1998, respectively, compared to 18,197,000 and 18,138,000 for the fiscal three and six months ended September 26, 1997, respectively. On July 30, 1997, the Company declared a 100% stock dividend, which was distributed on September 15, 1997, to stockholders of record on August 25, 1997. For the fiscal three and six months ended September 26, 1997, share and per share information have been restated to reflect the effect of the stock dividend as if it had occurred at the beginning of the periods.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND --------------------------------------------------------------- RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued) FISCAL THREE AND SIX MONTH PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 25, 1998 AND SEPTEMBER 26, ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1997 (cont.) ------------ Revenues from underwriting and investment banking increased $11,571,000, or 63%, for the quarter and increased $18,843,000, or 65%, for the six months ended September 25, 1998 when compared to the same periods in the prior fiscal year. Revenues from corporate underwriting and investment banking increased $11,666,000, or 66%, for the second quarter and increased $18,954,000, or 69%, for the six month period. The increase for the quarter is due primarily to increased revenues from private placements of $7,464,000, or 1,723%, and merger and other fees of $7,950,000, or 153%. The increase for the six month period is due primarily to an increase in private placement fees of $8,513,000, or 4,092%, and merger and other fees of $13,298,000, or 172%. However, revenues from public offerings of equity and debt securities decreased $4,688,000, or 46%, for the three months and $5,457,000, or 34%, for the six months. The decreases in revenues from public offerings was due to adverse market conditions for such issuances. Revenues from underwriting and investment banking activities are highly dependent on general market conditions for such business activities. Market conditions for underwriting and investment banking services can be affected by political and economic events both in the United States and abroad. To the extent future events are unpredictable, uncertainty will be a factor in the level of McDonald Securities' business activity. Also, competitive pressure from other investment banking firms can and will have an effect on the success of McDonald Securities in obtaining such business and on the prices that can be charged for investment banking and underwriting services. The Management of McDonald Securities believes it can compete effectively in this segment of its business activities. Revenues from principal transactions decreased $3,890,000, or 28%, for the second quarter of fiscal 1999 and decreased $8,296,000, or 27%, for the fiscal six months when compared to the same periods in the prior fiscal year. Revenues from principal transactions in equity securities decreased $3,460,000, or 58%, and $6,388,000, or 47%, for the fiscal three and six month periods, reflecting the decline in equity markets. Revenues from trading taxable fixed income securities decreased $788,000, or 14%, and $2,060,000, or 17%, for the fiscal three and six month periods, reflecting an adverse market for taxable fixed income products. These declines were partially offset by an increase in revenues from trading municipal bonds of $358,000, or 17%, for the quarter and $152,000, or 3%, for the six month period. Commissions revenue increased $3,074,000, or 12%, in the current quarter and $8,103,000, or 17%, in the first six months when compared to the same periods in fiscal 1998. Commission revenue from transactions in equity securities increased $2,046,000, or 13%, and $4,927,000, or 17%, for the quarter and six month period, respectively, primarily due to the growth in the Company's sales force and the continued high levels of transactions. Commission revenues from non-proprietary mutual funds increased $432,000, or 8%, and $2,087,000, or 20%, for the quarter and six month period, respectively. Commission revenue from proprietary mutual funds increased $331,000, or 16%, and $784,000, or 20%, for the three and six month periods. The increase in commission revenue for both non-proprietary and proprietary mutual funds is due to the continued popularity of mutual fund investments with individual investors. Commission revenue from annuity and life insurance products increased $265,000, or 14%, for the quarter and $305,000, or 9%, for the six months primarily due to increased marketing efforts for the sale of these products. Revenues from investment management fees include advisory fees from the Company's mutual funds and money market funds and investment management fees earned related to individually managed accounts. Revenues from investment management fees increased $2,580,000, or 31%, and $5,896,000, or 37%, for the fiscal quarter and six month periods ended September 25, 1998 when compared to the same periods in the prior fiscal year. Of these amounts, revenues from advisory fees related to individually managed accounts represented $2,229,000, or 86%, and $4,941,000, or 84%, respectively, of the total increase for the fiscal three and six month period. Other income decreased $945,000, or 54%, and $873,000, or 24%, for the fiscal three and six month periods, respectively, ended September 25, 1998. The decrease is a result of decreased income from proprietary investments. (9)

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND --------------------------------------------------------------- RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued) --------------------------------- FISCAL THREE AND SIX MONTH PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 25, 1998 AND SEPTEMBER 26, ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1997 (cont.) ------------ Interest and dividend income increased $4,015,000, or 68%, and $7,162,000, or 62%, for the fiscal three and six month periods ended September 25, 1998, respectively, when compared to the same periods in the prior fiscal year. The increase was due primarily to a higher level of customer margin loans and an increase in net inventory levels in the current periods when compared to the same periods in the prior fiscal year. Operating expenses (total expenses before interest) increased $13,361,000, or 22%, and $25,067,000, or 22%, for the three and six month periods ended September 25, 1998, respectively, when compared to the same periods in the prior fiscal year. Employee compensation and benefits increased $11,077,000, or 26%, for the second quarter and $19,643,000, or 25%, for the first six months. Commission and other sales compensation expense increased $2,198,000, or 10%, for the quarter, and $6,970,000, or 16%, for the first six months, primarily because of increased revenues from commissions and changes in the business mix which affect sales compensation. Other clerical and administrative expenses increased $3,334,000, or 27%, for the quarter and $5,827,000, or 24%, for the six month period. The increase in other clerical and administrative expenses represents compensation and employee benefit costs related to an increase in the professional and support staff in the current periods when compared to the same periods in the prior fiscal year. The remaining increase in employee compensation and benefits of $5,545,000, or 72%, for the second quarter and $6,846,000, or 53%, for the first six months represents increases in incentive compensation expense. The increases in incentive compensation expenses are due to increases in revenues from underwriting and investment banking, with corresponding higher incentive compensation levels. All other operating expenses increased $2,284,000, or 13%, for the quarter and $5,424,000, or 16%, for the first six months when compared to the same periods in the prior fiscal year. Communications expense decreased $90,000, or 2%, for the quarter and increased $770,000, or 10%, for the first six months of the current fiscal year. Occupancy and equipment costs increased $853,000, or 16%, for the quarter and $1,839,000, or 18%, for the first six months. These increases were due primarily to increases in depreciation expense related to computer equipment of $612,000, or 125%, for the quarter and $967,000, or 96%, for the six month period. The increases in technology expenses reflect the expansion of the business and the continued costs of providing better technology. Promotion and development expenses increased $458,000, or 17%, for the quarter and $988,000, or 19%, for the first six months. Floor brokerage and clearance expenses increased $114,000, or 15%, for the quarter and $224,000, or 16%, for the first six months. Taxes, other than income taxes, increased $261,000, or 12%, for the quarter and $479,000, or 11%, for the first six months. Other operating expenses increased $688,000, or 29%, for the quarter and $1,124,000, or 25%, for the first six months. The increases in operating expenses, including communications, occupancy and equipment, promotion and development, and other, reflect primarily the continued expansion of the Company's business. Interest expense increased $2,189,000, or 85%, and $4,094,000, or 82%, for the fiscal three and six month periods in the current fiscal year when compared to the same periods in the prior fiscal year. The increase in interest expense is due to higher levels of short-term borrowings which increased primarily as a result of higher customer margin loans and a higher level of securities owned. Income before income taxes in the fiscal quarter and fiscal six months ended September 25, 1998 was $11,442,000, and $21,182,000, respectively, resulting in pre-tax return on revenues of 12.7% and 12.5%, respectively. For the fiscal quarter and six months ended September 26, 1997, income before income taxes was $10,587,0000 and $19,508,000, respectively, resulting in pre-tax return on revenues of 14.4% and 14.1%, respectively.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. Legal Proceedings ----------------- As is the case with many firms in the securities industry, McDonald Securities is a defendant or co-defendant in a number of lawsuits alleging damages, which are ordinary and routine litigation, incidental to the securities and investment banking business. The Company is contesting the allegations of the complaints in these cases and believes that there are meritorious defenses in each of these lawsuits. Some of the proceedings relate to public underwritings of securities in which McDonald Securities participated as a member of the underwriting syndicate. The Company is also aware of litigation against certain underwriters of offerings in which McDonald Securities was a participant, but where McDonald Securities is not now a defendant. In these latter cases, it is possible that McDonald Securities may be called upon to contribute to settlements or judgments. In view of the number and diversity of claims against the Company and the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of litigation and other claims, the Company cannot state with certainty what the eventual outcome of pending litigation or other claims will be. The Company provides for costs relating to these matters when a loss is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The effect of the outcome of these matters on the Company's future results of operations cannot be predicted because any such effect depends on future results of operations and the amount and timing of the resolution of such matters. While it is not possible to predict with certainty, management believes that the ultimate resolution of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, liquidity, or results of operations of the Company. Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders --------------------------------------------------- The Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the Company was held on July 29, 1998.
