     - Announces Earnings Restatement
       * Retroactive application of deferral accounting for all loan and lease
         origination fees and costs
       * Reduces equity by $66 million

     - Adopts FIN 46
       * Consolidates $1.0 billion of securitized automobile loans

    COLUMBUS, Ohio, Oct. 15 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --

    2003 THIRD QUARTER EARNINGS
    Huntington Bancshares Incorporated (Nasdaq: HBAN)( http://www.huntington.com )
reported 2003 third quarter earnings of $90.9 million, or $0.39 per common
share, down $5.6 million, or 6%, from $96.5 million, or $0.42 per common
share, in the second quarter, but up $2.9 million, or 3%, from $88.0 million,
or $0.36 per common share, in the year-ago quarter.  The current quarter
results included a negative $13.3 million cumulative effect of change in
accounting principle as a result of adopting FASB Interpretation No. 46,
Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (FIN 46) effective July 1, 2003.
Before the cumulative effect, 2003 third quarter earnings were $104.2 million,
or $0.45 per common share, up $7.7 million, or 8%, from the second quarter,
and up $16.2 million, or 18%, from the year-ago quarter on the same basis.
All prior period results reflect the restatement announced today and discussed
below.
    "Huntington continues to make progress in several very important areas,
and we are quite pleased with some of the trends we are seeing," said Thomas
Hoaglin, chairman, president, and chief executive officer.  "Net interest
income increased as we continued to grow loans and leases and earning assets.
Average core deposits excluding retail CD's increased 5% again this quarter.
Importantly, this growth rate was maintained following a reduction in our
deposit pricing at the beginning of the quarter, which helped limit the
decline in the fully taxable equivalent net interest margin to only one basis
point."
    Hoaglin also noted the improving credit quality trends saying, "Net
charge-offs declined this quarter, while non-performing assets were
essentially unchanged.  Lower commercial net charge-offs were a significant
driver of this trend.  Our loan and lease loss reserve remained very strong as
evidenced by the increase in our coverage ratio on non-performing assets to
270% from 255% in the previous quarter."
    "While the tangible common equity to asset ratio declined to 6.78% in the
third quarter from 7.07% in the second quarter, the decline reflected the
consolidation of $1.0 billion of securitized automobile loans.  Our tangible
common equity ratio exceeds our revised long-term target of 6.50% to 6.75%,"
he concluded.

    Discussion of Results
    Third quarter results compared with sequential second quarter performance
reflected:

    -- $1.3 billion, or 7%, increase in average loans and leases from the
       second quarter.  Of this increase, $1.0 billion resulted from the
       FIN 46 consolidation.
    -- 5% growth in core deposits, excluding retail CDs.
    -- 13% decline in average operating lease assets.
    -- 3.46% net interest margin, down from 3.47%.
    -- $13.3 million after-tax, or $0.06 per share, negative cumulative effect
       of change in accounting principle (FIN 46).
    -- $17.8 million pretax ($11.6 million after-tax or $0.05 per share)
       mortgage servicing rights (MSR) impairment recovery, compared with
       $6.4 million pretax impairment in the second quarter.
    -- $4.1 million pretax ($2.7 million after-tax or $0.01 per share)
       securities losses compared with $6.9 million pretax gain in the second
       quarter.
    -- $13.1 million pretax gain on sale of four West Virginia offices
       ($8.5 million after-tax or $0.04 per share).
    -- 0.64% annualized net charge-offs, down from 0.85%.
    -- 0.65% non-performing assets ratio, down from 0.70%.
    -- 270% non-performing assets coverage ratio, up from 255%.
    -- 6.78% tangible common equity ratio, down from 7.07%.

    Fully taxable equivalent net interest income increased $18.5 million, or
9%, from the second quarter, primarily reflecting growth in average earning
assets, offset by a one basis point decline in the net interest margin.  The
fully taxable equivalent net interest margin decreased to 3.46% from 3.47% due
lower asset yields, though this impact was lessened by reduced deposit rates.
Average total earning assets increased $1.9 billion, or 8%, of which $1.0
billion related to the FIN 46 consolidation of automobile loans, $0.4 billion
related to higher investment securities, and $0.6 billion related to higher
average loans and leases and mortgages held for sale.  Excluding the
consolidation of automobile loans, average earning assets increased $0.9
billion, or 4%, from the second quarter.
    Compared with the year-ago quarter, fully taxable equivalent net interest
income increased $30.7 million, or 16%, reflecting a $4.9 billion, or 24%,
increase in average earning assets, partially offset by a 23 basis point, or
6%, decline in the fully taxable equivalent net interest margin to 3.46% from
3.69%.  Excluding the FIN 46 consolidation of automobile loans, average
earnings assets increased $3.9 billion, or 19%, from the year-ago quarter.
    Average loans and leases increased $1.3 billion, or 7%, from the second
quarter.  Of this increase, $1.0 billion resulted from the FIN 46
consolidation.  Excluding the impact of FIN 46, average loans and leases
increased $0.3 billion, or 1%. The slower growth rate in average loans and
leases in the third quarter was impacted by the sale of $569 million of
automobile loans late in the second quarter and a decline in large commercial
and industrial loans in the current quarter.  Reflecting the impact of the low
interest rate environment, average residential mortgages grew 10% and average
home equity loans and lines of credit increased 4%.  Average automobile loans
and leases increased 25%, with the FIN 46 consolidation accounting for
$1.0 billion, or 24 percentage points.  Excluding the impact of the FIN 46
consolidation, average automobile loans and leases were up 1%, impacted by the
automobile loans sold late in the second quarter.  Total average commercial
real estate loans increased 4%.  In contrast, average commercial loans
declined 4% reflecting declines in larger commercial credits, offset by
2% growth in small business loans.
    Compared with the year-ago quarter, average loans and leases increased
$3.3 billion, or 19%, including the impact of the FIN 46 consolidation of
$1.0 billion of automobile loans.  Average automobile loans and leases
increased $2.0 billion, or 61%, including the impact of adopting FIN 46.
Excluding the FIN 46 consolidation, average automobile loans and leases
increased $1.0 billion, or 30%.  This increase was driven by a $1.1 billion
increase in direct financing leases.  Excluding the consolidation of
securitized automobile loans, average automobile loans decreased $0.2 billion,
or 6%, reflecting the $1.1 billion of automobile loans sold in the 2003 first
half.  Average residential mortgages increased 40%, with average home equity
loans and lines up 14%.  Total average commercial real estate loans increased
12%, while average commercial loans declined 2%.
    Average investment securities increased $0.4 billion, or 10%, from the
second quarter reflecting the investment of proceeds from the second quarter
sale of automobile loans.  Average mortgages held for sale increased
$0.3 billion, or 49%, from the second quarter due to high loan originations
reflecting continued heavy refinancing activity.
    Total average core deposits in the third quarter increased $0.4 billion,
or 2%, from the second quarter including a $0.2 billion decline in retail
certificates of deposits (CDs).  Excluding retail CDs, average core deposits
increased 5%, reflecting 8% growth in interest bearing demand deposits and
6% growth in non-interest bearing demand deposits.  Compared with the year-ago
quarter, average core deposits increased 5% including a $0.9 billion decline
in retail CDs.  Average core deposits excluding retail CDs were up 14% from
the year-ago quarter.
    Non-interest income decreased $4.2 million, or 2%, from the second
quarter.  The primary drivers of the reduction were:

    -- No gain on sale of automobile loans in the third quarter compared with
       an $11.6 million gain on sale of automobile loans in the second
       quarter.
    -- $11.0 million, or 9%, decline in operating lease income.  Such declines
       are expected as the operating lease portfolio runs off.  All new
       automobile leases originated after April 2002 are direct financing
       leases, the income from which is reflected in net interest income.
    -- $11.0 million decline in investment securities gains, reflecting
       $4.1 million of securities losses in the current quarter compared to
       securities gains of $6.9 million in the second quarter. Investment
       securities are viewed as a natural balance sheet hedge against changes
       in MSR valuations with securities gains (losses) used to partially
       offset MSR losses (gains).
    -- $6.0 million, or 20%, decline in other income, reflecting the
       elimination of securitization income due to FIN 46 implementation,
       lower revenues on early automobile lease terminations, and lower
       trading gains.

    Partially offsetting these declines in non-interest income were:

    -- $13.1 million gain on sale of branch offices reflecting the previously
       announced sale of the four West Virginia branch offices, which closed
       in late July.
    -- $24.2 million increase in MSR valuation reflecting a $17.8 million MSR
       impairment recovery in the current quarter compared with $6.4 million
       of MSR impairment in the second quarter.

    The decline in interest rates through the second quarter resulted in a
temporary impairment of MSR valuations over the last year.  In contrast, the
increase in interest rates during the third quarter and the related
prospective slowdown in mortgage prepayments, resulted in a longer estimated
life of the MSR cash flows, and the resultant increased MSR valuation.
Mortgage banking income increased $23.0 million in the third quarter.
Excluding the MSR valuation change between quarters, mortgage banking income
decreased $1.2 million.  At September 30, 2003, MSRs as a percent of serviced
mortgages were 1.07%, up from 0.72% at June 30, 2003.

    Compared with the year-ago quarter, non-interest income declined
$25.8 million, or 9%, primarily reflecting the following:

    -- $42.5 million, or 27%, decline in operating lease income as this
       portfolio continues to run off.
    -- $24.6 million Merchant Services gain in the year-ago quarter.
    -- $5.2 million decline in investment securities gains, reflecting
       $4.1 million of securities losses in the current quarter compared to
       securities gains of $1.1 million in the year ago quarter.

    Partially offset by:

    -- $27.6 million increase in mortgage banking income, of which
       $24.4 million was due to an increase in MSR valuation, reflecting a
       $17.8 million recovery in the current quarter compared with a
       $6.6 million writedown in the year-ago quarter.
    -- $13.1 million gain on sale of the West Virginia banking offices in the
       current quarter.
    -- $4.6 million, or 12%, increase in services charges on deposit accounts.
    -- $3.2 million increase in mortgage banking income exclusive of MSR
       recovery/impairment.

    Non-interest expense increased $3.1 million, or 1%, from the second
quarter reflecting a $5.3 million release of restructuring reserves in the
second quarter.  Excluding this release of restructuring reserves, third
quarter non-interest expense decreased $2.2 million, or 1%.  Contributing to
this decline were the following:

    -- $9.8 million, or 10%, decline in operating lease expense, reflecting
       the continued run-off of that portfolio.
    -- $2.9 million, or 35%, decline in marketing expenses.

    Partially offset by:

    -- $7.9 million, or 8%, increase in personnel costs including current
       period recognition of $3.0 million in pension settlement expense, as
       well as higher medical and incentive accruals.
    -- $1.2 million, or 13%, increase in professional services.  The current
       quarter included $4.5 million of expenses associated with the
       Securities and Exchange Commission formal investigation, up from
       $0.8 million in the second quarter.

    Compared with the year-ago quarter, non-interest expense declined
$19.3 million, or 6%, primarily reflecting a $32.6 million, or 26%, decrease
in operating lease expense.  Partially offsetting the decrease was a
$12.5 million, or 12%, increase in personnel costs primarily reflecting higher
benefit expenses and sales commissions.
    Net charge-offs for the 2003 third quarter were $32.8 million, or an
annualized 0.64% of average loans and leases, down from $41.1 million, or
0.85%, in the second quarter and down from $33.8 million, or 0.78%, in the
year-ago quarter.  This primarily reflected lower commercial loan charge-offs,
which were an annualized 0.91% of related loans in the third quarter, down
from 1.89% in the second quarter.  This decline in commercial net charge-offs
reflected improving trends, compared with the second quarter, which included
the charge-off of a single commercial credit in the teleconferencing business.
In contrast, commercial real estate net charge-offs increased to an annualized
0.36% in the third quarter from 0.06% in the second quarter, primarily
reflecting the charge-off of a single credit.
    Total consumer net charge-offs were an annualized 0.61% in the third
quarter, up from 0.57% in the second quarter, primarily reflecting an increase
in automobile loan charge-offs.  Home equity charge-offs declined to an
annualized 0.39% from 0.44%, and residential charge-offs declined to
0.05% from 0.06%.  Net charge-offs on automobile loans were an annualized
1.20% in the third quarter, up from 1.06% in the second quarter, reflecting
the adverse impact of automobile loans sold in the first and second quarters.
These sold portfolios included a larger relative component of newer loans with
inherently lower net charge-off rates than the total portfolio.  Net
charge-offs on automobile leases decreased to an annualized 0.36% from
0.44% in the second quarter.
    Credit losses on operating lease assets, which are included in operating
lease expense, were $10.0 million, compared with $11.6 million in the second
quarter and $12.8 million in the year-ago quarter.  Recoveries on operating
lease assets, which are included in operating lease income, were $2.6 million,
$2.7 million, and $2.9 million for the same periods.  The ratio of credit
losses net of recoveries to operating lease assets was an annualized 1.90% in
the current quarter, 1.97% in the second quarter, and 1.53% in the year-ago
quarter.  The increase from a year ago reflects the declining balances in this
portfolio.  This portfolio will decrease over time since no new operating
lease assets have been generated after April 2002.  As a result, while the
absolute level of credit losses is expected to decline over time, the ratio of
credit losses expressed as a percent of a declining average operating lease
assets, is expected to increase.
    The over 90-day delinquent, but still accruing, loans as a percent of
total loans and leases was relatively unchanged at 0.31% at September 30,
2003.  The 30-day delinquency ratio decreased to 1.25% at September 30, 2003,
from 1.33% at the end of the second quarter, and was down significantly from
1.72% at the end of the year-ago quarter.  This reflected improvement in the
total consumer 30-day delinquency ratio to 1.72% at quarter end, down from
1.86% at the end of the second quarter and 2.00% a year earlier.  Total
commercial and commercial real estate 30-day delinquencies also declined to
0.67% at quarter end, down from 0.79% at June 30, 2003, and 1.45% a year ago.
    The provision for loan and lease losses in the third quarter was
$51.6 million, up $2.4 million, or 5%, from the second quarter due primarily
to $18.8 million of provision expense reflecting loan growth, offset by
$8.3 million of lower net charge-offs in the current period.  The September
30, 2003, allowance for loan and lease losses as a percent of period-end loans
and leases was 1.75%, down from 1.79% at June 30, 2003, reflecting the FIN 46
consolidation of $1.0 billion of automobile loans with a lower associated loan
loss reserve, and was down from 2.08% at the end of the year-ago quarter.
The allowance for loan and lease losses as a percent of non-performing assets
increased to 270% at September 30, 2003, from 255% at June 30, 2003, and was
well above the year-ago level of 173% due to the significant decline in
non-performing assets over this period.  Compared with the year-ago quarter,
loan and lease loss provision expense was down $2.7 million, or 5%.
    Non-performing assets at September 30, 2003 were $137.1 million and
represented 0.65% of period-end loans and leases and other real estate.  This
was up $3.4 million from $133.7 million, or 0.70%, of period-end loans and
leases and other real estate owned at June 30, 2003, and down $77.1 million,
or 36%, from the end of the year-ago quarter.  Non-performing assets continued
to be concentrated in the manufacturing and services sectors.
    At September 30, 2003, the tangible equity to assets ratio was 6.78%, down
from 7.07% at June 30, 2003, and down from 7.65% at September 30, 2002.  While
the decrease from the second quarter primarily reflected the FIN 46
consolidation of automobile loans, there was no change in the risk of loss
related to the consolidation.  The decrease from a year ago primarily
reflected share repurchase activity from July 1, 2002 through March 31, 2003.
No shares were repurchased during the 2003 second or third quarters.  The
existing share repurchase authorization had 3.9 million shares remaining as of
September 30, 2003.

    2003 Outlook
    "It has been our practice to provide earnings guidance when appropriate,"
said Hoaglin. "Going forward, we intend that any earnings guidance given will
only be on a GAAP, or reported, basis.  By providing earnings guidance on a
GAAP basis, investors will be able to decide independently what, if any,
adjustments they wish to make to this GAAP guidance in determining the
appropriate level of earnings for their stock price valuation analysis."
    In this regard, the company noted that earnings on a GAAP basis for the
first nine months of 2003 were $1.21 per share ($0.39 in the first quarter,
$0.42 in the second quarter, and $0.39 in the third quarter; quarterly amounts
do not add to the year to date total due to rounding).  The company expects
2003 fourth quarter earnings per share on a GAAP basis to be $0.37-$0.38 per
share.

    FIN 46 Adoption
    As previously announced on July 17, 2003, Huntington adopted FASB
Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (FIN 46)
effective July 1, 2003.  As a result, the company consolidated $1.0 billion of
securitized automobile loans on the balance sheet in the third quarter.  This
resulted in a negative $13.3 million after-tax, or $0.06 per share, cumulative
effect of change in accounting principle in third quarter results.
    The adoption also required the deconsolidation of two business trusts
which had been formed to issue trust preferred securities which qualified as
Tier 1 capital for regulatory capital purposes.  The related borrowings by the
parent company are now reported in the balance sheet under the caption
"Subordinated notes" and continue to qualify as Tier 1 capital.  There was no
cumulative effect on retained earnings or Huntington's capital ratios as a
result of this deconsolidation.

    EARNINGS RESTATEMENT

    Items Previously Announced
    On July 17, 2003, Huntington announced a series of voluntary actions
related to the previously announced SEC investigation, resulting in a $30
million cumulative reduction in retained earnings.  Included was a decision to
restate earnings to correct for errors related to the timing of origination
fees paid to automobile dealers, the deferral of commissions paid to originate
deposits, certain mortgage origination fee income, the recognition of pension
settlements, and liabilities related to the sale of an automobile debt
cancellation product.
    At the same time, the company announced the prospective application of
deferral accounting for all loan origination fees and costs beginning July 1,
2003, and noted that a review was being conducted to determine whether to
implement such deferral accounting on a retroactive basis.

    Items Announced Today
    Today the company announced the application of deferral accounting for all
loan origination fees and costs on a retroactive basis.  This voluntary
correction, plus the correction of two other errors, results in an incremental
$66 million cumulative reduction in retained earnings.  This reduction in
equity consists of three items:

    -- $55 million related to a decision to retroactively apply deferral
       accounting for loan origination fees and costs,
    -- $4 million to correct an amount included in the July 17, 2003
       announcement related to the automobile debt cancellation product, and
    -- $7 million to correct the timing of income recognition on a 1998
       sale-leaseback transaction.

    Two other timing errors, which had no cumulative effect on retained
earnings, were identified during an internal review of accounting procedures:
the recognition of a gain on an interest rate swap initiated in 1992 and sold
in 2000, and the recognition of income on Bank Owned Life Insurance in 2001
and 2002.
    The company will restate earnings to reflect these items and believes that
correcting these errors improves financial reporting accuracy and
transparency.

    Combined Impact on Retained Earnings
    The total effect of the announcements made on July 17th and today is a
cumulative $96 million reduction in equity.  Earnings in prior periods have
been restated to correct these errors with 80%, or $77 million, of the impact
reflected in the years 2000 and earlier.  In November the company will file an
amended 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A, as well as amended Quarterly
Reports on Form 10-Q/A for the first and second quarters of 2003.
    "Although the SEC investigation is ongoing, these announcements address
the accounting issues known to us related to the SEC investigation or issues
identified in our internal review of accounting procedures," said Hoaglin.
"We remain committed to cooperating fully with the SEC staff and to insuring
complete compliance with both the letter and spirit of proper accounting and
financial reporting transparency."

         errors relating to the timing of the recognition of accounting for
         loan origination fees and costs.  Additionally, these prior periods
         have been adjusted for other errors related to the timing of the
         recognition of certain other revenues and expenses.  The cumulative
         effect of these items reduced retained earnings by $66 million.  This
         amount, in addition to the cumulative effect that resulted from the
         correction of other timing errors that were reflected in the
         quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2003,
         totaled $96 million.  The company expects to file a restated annual
         report on Form 10-K/A, restated quarterly reports on Form 10-Q/A for
         the first two quarters of 2003, and its quarterly report on Form 10-Q
         for the period ended September 30, 2003 in November reflecting these
         restatements.

         Adoption of Financial Interpretation No. 46:

         On July 1, 2003, Huntington adopted FASB Interpretation No. 46,
         Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities ("FIN 46").  As a result
         of the adoption of this accounting standard, Huntington consolidated
         a securitization trust and related entities which held, collectively,
         $1 billion of indirect automobile loans and $960 million of
         liabilities.  Also in the implementation of FIN 46, Huntington
         deconsolidated two business trusts which had been formed to issue
         preferred securities which qualified as Tier 1 capital for
         determining Huntington's risk-based capital ratios.  The related
         borrowings by the parent company are now reported in the balance
         sheet under the caption "Subordinated notes" and continue to qualify
         as Tier 1 capital. See Note 18 to Huntington's 2002 Amended Annual
         Report for further information.  The cumulative effect on retained
         earnings of adopting FIN 46 was a charge, or reduction, of $13.3
         million, net of applicable taxes, and is reflected in Huntington's
         income statement for the third quarter
