Other than the Quarterly Financial Review tables beginning on page 14, commentary is on a fully taxable-equivalent (FTE) basis unless otherwise noted. Consistent with SEC guidance in Regulation S-K that contemplates the calculation of tax-exempt income on a taxable-equivalent basis, net interest income, net interest margin, net interest rate spread, total revenue and the efficiency ratio are provided on an FTE basis.

 

 

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

The first quarter reflected continued momentum across Fifth Third. We delivered strong loan and deposit growth, driven by new commercial relationships and continued household expansion. We closed the acquisition of Comerica on February 1st, and early financial benefits are already showing up, including strong net interest margin expansion and tangible book value per share growth.

Integration is progressing as we expected. We have integrated the combined management teams and are retaining key customer‑facing colleagues, supporting continuity for clients as we move forward as one organization. We are also seeing early revenue synergies across both commercial and consumer businesses.

Our focus is unchanged: stability, profitability, and growth, in that order. Disciplined execution will drive growth and deepen client relationships as we expand in our attractive footprint markets, while maintaining strong credit performance and delivering the expected financial synergies from Comerica. We are building a better and more resilient institution and remain committed to delivering consistent, long-term value for shareholders.

Fully taxable-equivalent (FTE) NII of $1.939 billion increased $406 million, or 26%, compared to the prior quarter. This improvement primarily reflects contributions from the Comerica acquisition, lower funding costs and disciplined balance sheet management. These benefits were partially offset by the impact of market rates on floating rate loans and lower day count. These same factors contributed to the 17 bps increase in NIM compared to the prior quarter. Purchase accounting accretion contributed approximately $38 million to net interest income in the quarter.

Compared to the year-ago quarter, NII increased $497 million, or 34%, and NIM increased 27 bps. This improvement was driven by the addition of Comerica earning assets and lower funding costs, partially offset by lower market rates impacting earning asset yields.

Noninterest income excluding certain items of $921 million increased $109 million, or 13%, compared to the prior quarter and increased $200 million, or 28%, from the year-ago quarter.

Comparisons to the prior and year-ago quarters were primarily driven by merger‑related impacts with additional incremental contributions from positive business momentum. Wealth and asset management revenue totaled $233 million, supported by seasonal tax‑related revenue and higher personal asset management revenue. Commercial payments revenue was $218 million, reflecting continued strength in core treasury services. Capital markets fees of $134 million were driven by client financial risk management revenue. Commercial banking revenue totaled $105 million, reflecting higher commercial lending‑related fees. Mortgage banking net revenue was $44 million, reflecting lower MSR net valuation adjustments.
