From Tim Spence, Fifth Third Chairman, CEO and President:

Fifth Third delivered strong operating results in the fourth quarter and for the full year. In 2025, we produced record NII, generated profitable relationship growth and diligently managed our expenses, generating 230 bps of positive operating leverage. Our strong profitability allowed us to return $1.6 billion of capital to our shareholders while maintaining strong capital ratios and increasing tangible book value per share 21% compared to last year.

Our consistent investment and focus on growth priorities continue to drive strong results. In 2025, we opened 50 branches in our high-growth Southeast markets and grew consumer households by 2.5%. We generated record quarterly revenue in our Wealth & Asset Management business, and assets under management increased 16% year-over-year to $80 billion.

Years of disciplined execution on strategic initiatives have positioned us to deliver sustained profitability as we integrate Comerica. With shareholder and regulatory approvals secured, we expect the transaction to close on February 1, 2026. We remain confident in our ability to achieve the expected financial synergies from the pending acquisition, and the result will be a Fifth Third that is better and not just bigger.

Fully taxable-equivalent (FTE) NII of $1.533 billion increased $8 million, or 1%, compared to the prior quarter. This improvement primarily reflects deposit and wholesale funding management actions decreasing the cost of interest-bearing liabilities, partially offset by lower loan yields due to the impact of market rates on floating rate loans. These same factors, coupled with higher average other short-term investments (including interest-bearing cash), contributed to the flat NIM in the quarter.

Compared to the year-ago quarter, NII increased $90 million, or 6%, and NIM increased 16 bps. This improvement was due to the benefits from proactive deposit and wholesale funding management decreasing interest-bearing liabilities costs by 40 bps and the benefit of fixed-rate asset repricing, which combined more than offset the 16 bps decrease in interest-earning asset yields.

Noninterest income excluding certain items of $812 million increased $23 million, or 3%, compared to the prior quarter and increased $21 million, or 3%, from the year-ago quarter.

Wealth and asset management revenue increased $4 million, or 2% sequentially, due to an increase in personal asset management revenue. Commercial payments revenue increased $10 million, or 6%, driven by commercial card and Newline revenue. Capital markets fees were up $6 million, or 5%, reflecting seasonal strength in M&A advisory revenue and loan syndications. Commercial banking revenue increased $15 million, or 17%, driven by higher lease syndication and remarketing.

Compared to the year-ago quarter, wealth and asset management revenue increased $22 million, or 13%, with 16% year-over-year AUM growth driving increases in personal asset management revenue and brokerage fees. Commercial payments revenue increased $12 million, or 8%, led by managed services, Newline revenue, and commercial card fees, partially offset by higher earnings credits. Capital markets fees decreased $2 million, or 2%, driven by lower loan syndications revenue, partially offset by higher M&A advisory revenue. Commercial banking revenue decreased $7 million, or 6%, primarily reflecting lower operating lease and other commercial banking revenue.

Total average portfolio loans and leases of $123 billion and average commercial portfolio loans and leases of $75 billion remained stable compared to the prior quarter. Average consumer portfolio loans of $49 billion increased 1%, driven by continued growth in home equity and indirect secured consumer loans.

Compared to the year-ago quarter, total average portfolio loans and leases increased 5%. Average commercial portfolio loans and leases increased 4%, reflecting increases in C&I loans, commercial mortgage loans, and commercial leases. Average consumer portfolio loans increased 6%, primarily due to increases in indirect secured consumer, home equity, and solar energy installation loans.

Average securities (taxable and tax-exempt; amortized cost) of $53 billion in the current quarter decreased 4% compared to the prior quarter and 7% compared to the year-ago quarter.

Period-end commercial portfolio loans and leases of $74 billion decreased 1% compared to the prior quarter as the highest quarterly commercial loan production in over three years was more than offset by the decrease in line utilization. Compared to the year-ago quarter, period-end commercial portfolio loans and leases remained stable.

Period-end consumer portfolio loans of $49 billion increased 1% compared to the prior quarter, primarily reflecting increases in home equity and indirect secured consumer loans. Compared to the year-ago quarter, period-end consumer portfolio loans increased 6% driven by increases in indirect secured consumer and home equity loans.

Total period-end securities (taxable and tax-exempt; amortized cost) of $52 billion in the current quarter decreased 1% compared to the prior quarter and decreased 8% compared to the year-ago quarter. Period-end other short-term investments of approximately $19 billion increased 10% compared to the prior and year-ago quarters.

Total average deposits of $168 billion increased 2% compared to the prior quarter, primarily driven by growth in interest checking, money market and demand deposits, partially offset by declines in CDs $250,000 or less. The growth in demand deposits reflects our strategic focus on enhancing the deposit mix and represents the third consecutive quarter of demand deposit growth. Period-end total deposits of $172 billion increased 3%.

Compared to the year-ago quarter, total average deposits increased 1%, mainly due to increases in money market and demand deposits, partially offset by decreases in savings and interest checking deposits. Period-end total deposits increased 3%.

The period-end portfolio loan-to-core deposit ratio was 72% in the current quarter, compared to 75% in the prior quarter and 73% in the year-ago quarter.

Average wholesale funding of $19 billion decreased 14% compared to the prior quarter, driven by a reduction in FHLB advances and long-term debt. The 7% decrease in average wholesale funding compared to the year-ago quarter was primarily attributable to a decrease in long-term debt and CDs over $250,000, inclusive of brokered deposits, partially offset by an increase in FHLB advances.
