From Bill Demchak, PNC Chairman and Chief Executive Officer:
"We delivered another great quarter with better than expected financial results and steady client growth across all our business lines. Fee income grew 9% and expenses were well-controlled which contributed to another quarter of positive operating leverage. Credit performed well and we continued to build on our strong capital levels. The planned acquisition of FirstBank positions us for accelerated expansion in Colorado and Arizona as we continue to strategically grow our national franchise."

Pending Acquisition of FirstBank

• On September 8, 2025, PNC announced a definitive agreement to acquire FirstBank Holding Company, including its banking subsidiary FirstBank, headquartered in Lakewood, CO for implied consideration of $4.1 billion. FirstBank operates 95 branches, with a leading position in Colorado and a substantial presence in Arizona. As of June 30, 2025, FirstBank had $26.8 billion in assets. The combination will more than triple PNC's network in Colorado to 120 branches and increase PNC's presence in Arizona to more than 70 branches. The transaction is expected to close in early 2026, subject to receipt of all required approvals and other customary closing conditions.

Total revenue for the third quarter of 2025 increased $254 million compared to the second quarter of 2025 and $483 million compared to the third quarter of 2024. In each comparison the increase was driven by growth in both noninterest income and net interest income.

Net interest income of $3.6 billion increased $93 million from the second quarter of 2025, driven by the continued benefit of fixed rate asset repricing, loan growth and one additional day in the quarter. Compared to the third quarter of 2024, net interest income increased $238 million due to lower funding costs, the benefit of fixed rate asset repricing and loan growth.

Net interest margin was 2.79% in the third quarter of 2025, decreasing 1 basis point from the second quarter of 2025 driven by average commercial deposit growth of 5%.

Noninterest income for the third quarter of 2025 increased $161 million, or 8%, compared with the second quarter of 2025 driven by strong fee income growth. Asset management and brokerage fees increased $13 million driven by higher average equity markets. Capital markets and advisory revenue increased $111 million primarily due to an increase in merger and acquisition advisory activity, higher underwriting fees, and increased loan syndication revenue. Lending and deposit services increased $18 million primarily due to increased customer activity. Residential and commercial mortgage revenue increased $33 million driven by higher mortgage servicing rights valuation, net of economic hedge, and increased residential mortgage production revenue. Other noninterest income decreased $14 million reflecting negative Visa derivative adjustments, partially offset by higher private equity revenue. Visa derivative adjustments were negative $35 million in the third quarter of 2025 and positive $2 million in the second quarter of 2025.

Noninterest income for the third quarter of 2025 increased $245 million, or 12%, from the third quarter of 2024, driven by higher other noninterest income and broad-based fee income growth.

Average commercial loans increased $3.4 billion, driven by growth in the commercial and industrial portfolio of $4.3 billion partially offset by a decline in commercial real estate loans of $1.0 billion. Average consumer loans were stable as growth, primarily in the auto and credit card loan portfolio, was offset by lower residential mortgage loans.

In comparison to the third quarter of 2024, average loans increased $6.3 billion. Average commercial loans increased $7.8 billion primarily due to strong growth in commercial and industrial loans, partially offset by lower commercial real estate loans. Average consumer loans decreased $1.4 billion primarily due to lower residential mortgage loans, partially offset by growth in the auto loan portfolio.

Loans at September 30, 2025 increased $0.3 billion and $5.2 billion from June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024, respectively. In both comparisons, the increase was due to growth in commercial and industrial loans, partially offset by lower commercial real estate loans.

In both comparisons, the increase reflected net purchase activity, primarily of agency residential mortgage-backed securities.

The duration of the investment securities portfolio was 3.4 years as of September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025 and 3.3 years as of September 30, 2024. Net unrealized losses on available-for-sale securities were $2.1 billion at September 30, 2025, $2.6 billion at June 30, 2025 and $2.3 billion at September 30, 2024.

Average Federal Reserve Bank balances for the third quarter of 2025 were $34.2 billion, increasing $3.4 billion from the second quarter of 2025 and decreasing $10.7 billion from the third quarter of 2024. In comparison to the second quarter of 2025, the increase was driven by deposit growth. Compared to the third quarter of 2024, the decline reflected lower borrowed funds outstanding.

Third quarter 2025 average deposits of $431.8 billion increased $8.9 billion compared to the second quarter of 2025 driven by commercial deposit growth.

*September 30, 2025 ratio is estimated. September 30, 2024 ratio reflects PNC's election to adopt the optional five-year CECL transition provision.

PNC maintained a strong capital position. Common shareholders' equity at September 30, 2025 increased $1.3 billion from June 30, 2025 due to net income and an improvement in accumulated other comprehensive income, partially offset by dividends paid and share repurchases.

As a Category III institution, PNC has elected to exclude accumulated other comprehensive income related to both available-for-sale securities and pension and other post-retirement plans from CET1 capital. Accumulated other comprehensive income of negative $4.1 billion at September 30, 2025 improved from negative $4.7 billion at June 30, 2025 and negative $5.1 billion at September 30, 2024. In both comparisons, the change reflected the favorable impact of interest rate movements on securities and swaps and the continued accretion of unrealized losses.

In the third quarter of 2025, PNC returned $1.0 billion of capital to shareholders, reflecting $0.7 billion of dividends on common shares and $0.3 billion of common share repurchases. Consistent with the Stress Capital Buffer (SCB) framework, which allows for capital return in amounts in excess of the SCB minimum levels, our board of directors has authorized a repurchase framework under the previously approved repurchase program of up to 100 million common shares, of which approximately 37% were still available for repurchase at September 30, 2025.

Share repurchase activity in the fourth quarter of 2025 is expected to be generally consistent with our third quarter of 2025 share repurchase levels and approximate $300 million to $400 million. PNC may adjust share repurchase activity depending on market and economic conditions, as well as other factors.

PNC's SCB for the four-quarter period beginning October 1, 2025 is the regulatory minimum of 2.5%. On October 2, 2025, the PNC board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend on common stock of $1.70 per share to be paid on November 5, 2025 to shareholders of record at the close of business October 14, 2025.

At September 30, 2025, PNC was considered "well capitalized" based on applicable U.S. regulatory capital ratio requirements. For additional information regarding PNC's Basel III capital ratios, see Capital Ratios in the Consolidated Financial Highlights.

Provision for credit losses was $167 million in the third quarter of 2025, $254 million in the second quarter of 2025 and $243 million in the third quarter of 2024.

Net loan charge-offs were $179 million in the third quarter of 2025, decreasing $19 million compared to the second quarter of 2025 and $107 million compared to the third quarter of 2024. In both comparisons, the decline reflected lower commercial real estate net loan charge-offs.

The allowance for credit losses was $5.3 billion at September 30, 2025, June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024. The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of total loans was 1.61% at September 30, 2025, 1.62% at June 30, 2025 and 1.65% at September 30, 2024.

Delinquencies at September 30, 2025 were $1.2 billion, decreasing $70 million from June 30, 2025, due to lower commercial and consumer loan delinquencies. Compared to September 30, 2024, delinquencies decreased $42 million reflecting lower consumer loan delinquencies.

Nonperforming loans were $2.1 billion at September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025, and $2.6 billion at September 30, 2024. Compared to September 30, 2024, the improvement was primarily driven by lower commercial real estate nonperforming loans.

(c)	Net interest margin is the total yield on interest-earning assets minus the total rate on interest-bearing liabilities and includes the benefit from use of noninterest-bearing sources. To provide more meaningful comparisons of net interest margins, we use net interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis in calculating average yields used in the calculation of net interest margin by increasing the interest income earned on tax-exempt assets to make it fully equivalent to interest income earned on taxable investments. This adjustment is not permitted under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the Consolidated Income Statement. The taxable-equivalent adjustments to net interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2025, June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024 were $30 million, $28 million and $33 million, respectively. The taxable-equivalent adjustments to net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024 were $86 million and $101 million, respectively.
(d)	Calculated as noninterest expense divided by total revenue.

CAPITAL RATIOS

PNC's regulatory risk-based capital ratios in 2025 are calculated using the standardized approach for determining risk-weighted assets. Under the standardized approach for determining credit risk-weighted assets, exposures are generally assigned a pre-defined risk weight. Exposures to high volatility commercial real estate, past due exposures and equity exposures are generally subject to higher risk weights than other types of exposures.

PNC elected a five-year transition provision effective March 31, 2020 to delay until December 31, 2021 the full impact of the CECL standard on regulatory capital, followed by a three-year transition period. Effective for the first quarter of 2022, PNC entered a three-year transition period, and the full impact of the CECL standard was phased-in to regulatory capital through December 31, 2024. Beginning in the first quarter of 2025, CECL is fully reflected in regulatory capital. See the table below for the June 30, 2025, September 30, 2024 and estimated September 30, 2025 ratios.

Our Basel III capital ratios may be impacted by changes to the regulatory capital rules and additional regulatory guidance or analysis.

Other income	198		212		69
Total noninterest income	$ 2,267		$ 2,106		$ 2,022

Fee income is a non-GAAP measure and is comprised of noninterest income in the following categories: asset management and brokerage, capital markets and advisory, card and cash management, lending and deposit services, and residential and commercial mortgage. We believe this non-GAAP measure serves as a useful tool for comparison of noninterest income related to fees.

Pretax Pre-Provision Earnings (non-GAAP)	Three months ended

Provision for credit losses	167		254		243
Pretax pre-provision earnings (non-GAAP)	$ 2,454		$ 2,278		$ 2,105

Pretax pre-provision earnings is a non-GAAP measure and is based on adjusting income before income taxes and noncontrolling interests to exclude provision for credit losses. We believe that pretax, pre-provision earnings is a useful tool to help evaluate the ability to provide for credit costs through operations and provides an additional basis to compare results between periods by isolating the impact of provision for credit losses, which can vary significantly between periods.

Tangible book value per common share (non-GAAP)	$ 107.84		$ 103.96		$ 96.98

Tangible book value per common share is a non-GAAP measure and is calculated based on tangible common shareholders' equity divided by period-end common shares outstanding. We believe this non-GAAP measure serves as a useful tool to help evaluate the strength and discipline of a company's capital management strategies and as an additional, conservative measure of total company value.

Taxable-Equivalent Net Interest Income (non-GAAP)	Three months ended
	September 30		June 30		September 30
Dollars in millions	2025		2025		2024
Net interest income	$ 3,648		$ 3,555		$ 3,410
Taxable-equivalent adjustments	30		28		33
Net interest income (Fully Taxable-Equivalent - FTE) (non-GAAP)	$ 3,678		$ 3,583		$ 3,443

The interest income earned on certain earning assets is completely or partially exempt from federal income tax. As such, these tax-exempt instruments typically yield lower returns than taxable investments. To provide more meaningful comparisons of net interest income, we use interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis by increasing the interest income earned on tax-exempt assets to make it fully equivalent to interest income earned on taxable investments. This adjustment is not permitted under GAAP. Taxable-equivalent net interest income is only used for calculating net interest margin. Net interest income shown elsewhere in this presentation is GAAP net interest income.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information

We make statements in this news release and related conference call, and we may from time to time make other statements, regarding our outlook for financial performance, such as earnings, revenues, expenses, tax rates, capital and liquidity levels and ratios, asset levels, asset quality, financial position, and other matters regarding or affecting us and our future business and operations, including our sustainability strategy, that are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as "believe," "plan," "expect," "anticipate," "see," "look," "intend," "outlook," "project," "forecast," "estimate," "goal," "will," "should" and other similar words and expressions.

Forward-looking statements are necessarily subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties, which change over time. Future events or circumstances may change our outlook and may also affect the nature of the assumptions, risks and uncertainties to which our forward-looking statements are subject. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date made. We do not assume any duty and do not undertake any obligation to update forward-looking statements. Actual results or future events could differ, possibly materially, from those anticipated in forward-looking statements, as well as from historical performance. As a result, we caution against placing undue reliance on any forward-looking statements.

Our forward-looking statements are subject to the following principal risks and uncertainties.

• Our businesses, financial results and balance sheet values are affected by business and economic conditions, including:
  • Changes in interest rates and valuations in debt, equity and other financial markets,
  • Disruptions in the U.S. and global financial markets,
  • Actions by the Federal Reserve Board, U.S. Treasury and other government agencies, including those that impact money supply, market interest rates and inflation,
  • Changes in customer behavior due to changing business and economic conditions or legislative or regulatory initiatives,
  • Changes in customers', suppliers' and other counterparties' performance and creditworthiness,
  • Impacts of sanctions, tariffs and other trade policies of the U.S. and its global trading partners,
  • Impacts of changes in federal, state and local governmental policy, including on the regulatory landscape, capital markets, taxes, infrastructure spending and social programs,
  • Our ability to attract, recruit and retain skilled employees, and
  • Commodity price volatility.
• Our forward-looking financial statements are subject to the risk that economic and financial market conditions will be substantially different than those we are currently expecting. These statements are based on our views that:
  • PNC's baseline forecast remains for continued expansion, but slower economic growth in 2025 and 2026 than in 2024. The government shutdown will weaken growth, but the economy should regain that growth once the shutdown ends. Tariffs are a drag on consumer spending and business investment, while AI-related capex and wealth effects have been key supports to growth. Consumer spending growth is slowing to a pace more consistent with household income growth, and government's contribution to economic growth will be smaller.
  • The baseline forecast anticipates Real GDP growth slowing to below 2% in both 2025 and 2026, accompanied by a modest increase in the unemployment rate, which is expected to peak above 4.5% in mid-2026. Tariffs remain a risk to the outlook, and a reversal in sentiment around AI would be a drag. Additionally, a prolonged government shutdown has emerged as a downside risk.
  • The baseline forecast is for three consecutive federal funds rate cuts of 25 basis points each at the next three Federal Open Market Committee meetings, ending in late-January 2026 and resulting in a federal funds rate in the range of 3.25% to 3.50%. However, there are two-sided risks to this outlook: (1) if inflation re-accelerates or proves more persistent than expected, the Federal Reserve may cut less or (2) if growth falters or recession emerges, easing could be deeper and more prolonged.
• PNC's ability to take certain capital actions, including returning capital to shareholders, is subject to PNC meeting or exceeding minimum capital levels, including a stress capital buffer established by the Federal Reserve Board in connection with the Federal Reserve Board's Comprehensive Capital Analysis and Review (CCAR) process.
• PNC's regulatory capital ratios in the future will depend on, among other things, PNC's financial performance, the scope and terms of final capital regulations then in effect and management actions affecting the composition of PNC's balance sheet. In addition, PNC's ability to determine, evaluate and forecast regulatory capital ratios, and to take actions (such as capital distributions) based on actual or forecasted capital ratios, will be dependent at least in part on the development, validation and regulatory review of related models and the reliability of and risks resulting from extensive use of such models.
• Legal and regulatory developments could have an impact on our ability to operate our businesses, financial condition, results of operations, competitive position, reputation, or pursuit of attractive acquisition opportunities. Reputational impacts could affect matters such as business generation and retention, liquidity, funding, and ability to attract and retain employees. These developments could include:
• • Changes to laws and regulations, including changes affecting oversight of the financial services industry, changes in the enforcement and interpretation of such laws and regulations, and changes in accounting and reporting standards.
  • Unfavorable resolution of legal proceedings or other claims and regulatory and other governmental investigations or other inquiries resulting in monetary losses, costs, or alterations in our business practices, and potentially causing reputational harm to PNC.
  • Results of the regulatory examination and supervision process, including our failure to satisfy requirements of agreements with governmental agencies.
  • Costs associated with obtaining rights in intellectual property claimed by others and of adequacy of our intellectual property protection in general.
• Business and operating results are affected by our ability to identify and effectively manage risks inherent in our businesses, including, where appropriate, through effective use of systems and controls, third-party insurance, derivatives, and capital management techniques, and to meet evolving regulatory capital and liquidity standards.
• Our reputation and business and operating results may be affected by our ability to appropriately meet or address environmental, social or governance targets, goals, commitments or concerns that may arise.
• We grow our business in part through acquisitions and new strategic initiatives. Risks and uncertainties include those presented by the nature of the business acquired and strategic initiative, including in some cases those associated with our entry into new businesses or new geographic or other markets and risks resulting from our inexperience in those new areas, as well as risks and uncertainties related to the acquisition transactions themselves, regulatory issues, the integration of the acquired businesses into PNC after closing or any failure to execute strategic or operational plans.
• Competition can have an impact on customer acquisition, growth and retention and on credit spreads and product pricing, which can affect market share, deposits and revenues. Our ability to anticipate and respond to technological changes can also impact our ability to respond to customer needs and meet competitive demands.
