Acquisition of FirstBank Holding Company
On January 5, 2026, PNC acquired FirstBank Holding Company including its banking subsidiary, FirstBank, representing $4.2 billion of consideration in cash and PNC common stock to FirstBank Holding Company common shareholders and Series A preferred shareholders, and $0.1 billion of consideration to Series B preferred shareholders through the exchange of each share of Series B preferred stock into a newly created series of preferred stock of PNC, designated Series X. Conversion of FirstBank customers to PNC Bank is expected to occur mid-June 2026. Until conversion, FirstBank will remain a separate bank subsidiary of PNC.
Our results for the three months ended March 31, 2026 reflect the impact of FirstBank’s acquired business operations for the period since the acquisition closed on January 5, 2026. As of close and prior to purchase accounting adjustments, FirstBank had $26.4 billion of assets, $16.0 billion of loans and $23.1 billion of deposits.
For additional information on the acquisition of FirstBank, see Note 2 Acquisition Activity.

Income Statement Highlights
Net income of $1.8 billion, or $4.13 per diluted common share, for the first quarter of 2026 decreased $261 million, or 13%, compared to $2.0 billion, or $4.88 per diluted common share, for the fourth quarter of 2025, due to increased noninterest expense, lower noninterest income and higher provision for credit losses, partially offset by higher net interest income.
2 The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q
•For the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2025:
•Total revenue of $6.2 billion increased $94 million, or 2%.
•Net interest income of $4.0 billion increased $230 million, or 6%, reflecting the benefit of FirstBank, lower funding costs and commercial loan growth.
•Net interest margin increased 11 basis points to 2.95%, reflecting an 18 basis point decline in the rate paid on interest-bearing deposits.
•Noninterest income of $2.2 billion decreased $136 million, or 6%, primarily due to lower private equity revenue, a decline in mortgage servicing rights valuation, net of economic hedge, and lower capital markets and advisory fees.
•Provision for credit losses was $210 million in the first quarter of 2026 and reflected portfolio activity, including loan growth and the addition of FirstBank, as well as updates to macroeconomic factors. The fourth quarter of 2025 included a provision for credit losses of $139 million.
•Noninterest expense increased $165 million, or 5%, and included FirstBank operating and integration expenses, partially offset by seasonally lower marketing spend.
First quarter 2026 net income increased $273 million, or 18%, compared to $1.5 billion, or $3.51 per diluted common share, for the first quarter of 2025, primarily due to higher net interest and noninterest income, partially offset by increased noninterest expense.
•For the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025:
•Total revenue increased $713 million, or 13%.
•Net interest income increased $485 million, or 14%, reflecting the benefit of FirstBank, loan growth and lower funding costs.
•Net interest margin increased 17 basis points and included the continued benefit of fixed rate asset repricing.
•Noninterest income increased $228 million, or 12%, primarily due to higher capital markets and advisory fees.
•Provision for credit losses was $210 million for the first three months of 2026. The first three months of 2025 included a provision for credit losses of $219 million.
•Noninterest expense increased $381 million, or 11%, compared to the first three months of 2025, and included FirstBank operating and integration expenses, higher personnel costs as a result of increased business activity and higher equipment expenses reflecting continued investments in technology.
For additional detail, see the Consolidated Income Statement Review section of this Financial Review.
Balance Sheet Highlights
Our balance sheet was well positioned at March 31, 2026. In comparison to December 31, 2025:
•Total assets of $603.0 billion increased primarily due to higher loans and higher securities balances, including the impact of the FirstBank acquisition, partially offset by lower balances held with the FRB.
•Total loans of $360.9 billion increased $29.4 billion, or 9%.
•Total commercial loans increased $23.5 billion, or 10%, to $256.0 billion, due to growth in the commercial and industrial portfolio, reflecting new production and higher utilization of loan commitments as well as the addition of FirstBank loans.
•Total consumer loans increased $5.9 billion, or 6%, to $105.0 billion, driven by the benefit of acquired FirstBank residential mortgage loans.
•Investment securities increased $4.9 billion, or 4%, to $143.1 billion, primarily due to the acquisition of FirstBank investment securities and net purchase activity in both the available-for-sale and held-to-maturity portfolios.
•Interest-earning deposits with banks, primarily with the FRB, decreased $6.9 billion, or 21%, to $26.1 billion, as higher loan and security balances outpaced funding growth from deposits and borrowed funds.
•Total deposits increased $16.8 billion, or 4%, driven by higher interest-bearing and noninterest-bearing deposits, primarily due to the addition of FirstBank deposits, partially offset by lower brokered time deposits.
•Borrowed funds increased $9.6 billion, or 17%, to $66.7 billion, primarily due to higher FHLB advances.
For additional detail, see the Consolidated Balance Sheet Review section of this Financial Review.
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q 3
Credit Quality Highlights
In the first quarter of 2026, PNC maintained strong credit quality performance.
•At March 31, 2026 compared to December 31, 2025:
•Overall loan delinquencies of $1.6 billion increased $115 million, or 8%, due to the addition of FirstBank commercial and consumer loans.
•The ACL related to loans, which consists of the ALLL and the allowance for unfunded lending related commitments, totaled $5.5 billion at March 31, 2026, compared to $5.2 billion at December 31, 2025. The increase was driven by portfolio activity, including the addition of FirstBank loans. ACL to total loans was 1.52% at March 31, 2026, compared to 1.58% at December 31, 2025.
•Nonperforming assets of $2.4 billion were stable.
•Net loan charge-offs of $253 million, or 0.29% of average loans, in the first quarter of 2026 increased $91 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2025, and included $45 million of acquired net loan charge-offs related to purchase accounting treatment for certain FirstBank loans.
For additional detail see the Credit Risk Management portion of the Risk Management section of this Financial Review.
Capital and Liquidity Highlights
We maintained our strong capital and liquidity positions.
•Common shareholders’ equity of $57.8 billion at March 31, 2026, increased $2.9 billion, or 5%, compared to December 31, 2025, primarily due to common stock issuances related to the FirstBank acquisition.
•In the first quarter of 2026, PNC returned $1.4 billion of capital to shareholders, reflecting $0.7 billion of dividends on common shares and $0.7 billion of common share repurchases.
•On April 2, 2026, the PNC Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend on common stock of $1.70 per share paid on May 5, 2026 to shareholders of record at the close of business April 14, 2026.
•Our CET1 ratio was 10.1% at March 31, 2026 and 10.6% at December 31, 2025.
For additional information on our liquidity and capital actions as well as our capital ratios, see Capital Management in the Risk Management section in this Financial Review, the Recent Regulatory Developments section in this Financial Review and the Supervision and Regulation section in our 2025 Form 10-K.
Business Outlook
Statements regarding our business outlook are forward-looking within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. 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 and do not take into account potential legal and regulatory contingencies. These statements are based on our views that:
•PNC’s baseline forecast remains for continued expansion in 2026, but slower economic growth in 2026 than in 2025 and 2024. The baseline forecast anticipates real GDP growth slowing to around 1.7% in 2026, with continued modest job gains and the unemployment rate moving slightly higher, to around 4.6% at year’s end. CPI inflation will peak at around 3.5% in mid-2026, with core CPI inflation at around 2.6%. An extended conflict with Iran and higher energy prices are significant risks to the outlook, both for inflation and growth, and a reversal in sentiment around AI or a large decline in equity prices would be drags. Weaker labor force growth could lead to weaker long-run growth.
•Our baseline forecast is for the Federal Reserve to keep the federal funds rate unchanged throughout 2026 and into 2027, in a range between 3.50% and 3.75%. However, there are two-sided risks to this outlook: (1) if the conflict with Iran persists and inflation proves more persistent than expected the Federal Reserve may raise rates, or (2) if growth falters or recession emerges there could be a deep and prolonged easing in monetary policy.
Consistent with the forward guidance we provided on April 15, 2026, for the second quarter of 2026, compared to the first quarter of 2026, we expect:
•Average loans to be up 2% to 3%,
•Net interest income to be up approximately 3%,
•Fee income to be up approximately 2.5%,
•Other noninterest income to be $150 million to $200 million,
•Total revenue to be up approximately 3.5%,
•Noninterest expense excluding integration expense to be up approximately 2%, and
•Net loan charge-offs to be approximately $225 million.
4 The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q
Consistent with the forward guidance we provided on April 15, 2026, for the full year of 2026, compared to the full year of 2025, we expect:
•Average loans to be up approximately 11%,
•Net interest income to be up approximately 14.5%,
•Noninterest income to be up approximately 6%,
•Total revenue to be up approximately 11%,
•Noninterest expense excluding integration expense to be up approximately 7%, and
•Effective tax rate to be approximately 19.5%.
Other noninterest income, noninterest income and total revenue guidance does not forecast net securities gains or losses, or Visa activity. Additionally, noninterest expense excluding integration expense does not include our expectation for non-recurring merger and integration costs. We expect to incur integration costs of $150 million and $325 million for the second quarter of 2026 and full year of 2026, respectively.
We are unable to provide a meaningful or accurate reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP measures, without unreasonable effort, to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing and amounts necessary for the reconciliation, when such amounts are subject to events that cannot be reasonably predicted, as noted in our Cautionary Statement. Accordingly, we cannot address the probable significance of unavailable information.
See the Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information section in this Financial Review and Item 1A Risk Factors included in our 2025 Form 10-K for other factors that could cause future events to differ, perhaps materially, from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements.
CONSOLIDATED INCOME STATEMENT REVIEW
Our Consolidated Income Statement is presented in Item 1 of this Report.
Net income of $1.8 billion, or $4.13 per diluted common share, for the first quarter of 2026 decreased $261 million, or 13%, compared to $2.0 billion, or $4.88 per diluted common share, for the fourth quarter of 2025, due to increased noninterest expense, lower noninterest income and higher provision for credit losses, partially offset by higher net interest income. Net income increased $273 million, or 18%, compared to $1.5 billion, or $3.51 per diluted common share, for the same period in 2025, primarily due to higher net interest and noninterest income, partially offset by increased noninterest expense.

(a)Interest income is calculated as taxable-equivalent interest income. To provide more meaningful comparisons of interest income and yields for all interest-earning assets, as well as net interest margins, we use interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis in calculating average yields and net interest margins 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 on the Consolidated Income Statement. For more information, see Table 36 Reconciliation of Taxable-Equivalent Net Interest Income (non-GAAP).
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q 5
(b)Interest income from Interest-earning deposits with banks primarily includes interest earned on our balances held with the FRB and is reported as Other interest income on our Consolidated Income Statement.
Changes in net interest income and margin result from the interaction of the volume and composition of interest-earning assets and related yields, interest-bearing liabilities and related rates paid and noninterest-bearing sources of funding. See Table 35 Average Consolidated Balance Sheet and Net Interest Analysis for additional information.
Net interest income increased $230 million, or 6%, for the first quarter of 2026 compared to the fourth quarter of 2025, reflecting the benefit of FirstBank, lower funding costs and commercial loan growth. Net interest income increased $485 million, or 14%, for the first three months of 2026 compared to the same period in 2025 and reflected the benefit of FirstBank, loan growth and lower funding costs. Net interest margin increased 11 basis points compared to the fourth quarter of 2025, reflecting an 18 basis point decline in the rate paid on interest-bearing deposits. Compared to the first three months of 2025, net interest margin increased 17 basis points and included the continued benefit of fixed rate asset repricing.
Average investment securities increased $2.3 billion, or 2%, compared to both the fourth and first quarters of 2025. In both comparisons, the increase primarily reflected higher residential mortgage-backed securities, partially offset by a decline in U.S. Treasury securities. Average investment securities represented 27% of average interest-earning assets for both the first quarter of 2026 and the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to 28% for the first three months of 2025.
Average loans increased $23.0 billion, or 7%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2025, and $34.3 billion, or 11%, compared to the first three months of 2025. In both comparisons, the increase is primarily due to growth in commercial and industrial loans, driven by strong new production and increased utilization, as well as the addition of FirstBank loans. Average loans represented 65% of average interest-earning assets for the first quarter of 2026, compared to 63% for both the fourth and first quarters of 2025.
Average interest-earning deposits with banks increased $0.6 billion, or 2%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2025 and decreased $2.0 billion, or 6%, compared to the first quarter of 2025. The decrease compared to the first three months of 2025 reflected higher loans and securities balances and lower borrowed funds, partially offset by increased deposits.
Average interest-bearing deposits increased $14.6 billion, or 4%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2025, and $31.0 billion, or 9%, compared to the first quarter of 2025. Both comparisons reflected the addition of FirstBank deposits, partially offset by lower brokered time deposits. In total, average interest-bearing deposits represented 85% of average interest-bearing liabilities for both the first quarter of 2026 and the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to 84% for the first three months of 2025.
Average borrowed funds increased $2.6 billion, or 4%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2025, and reflected an increase in FHLB advances. Average borrowed funds decreased $1.6 billion, or 3%, compared to the first three months of 2025, primarily due to lower FHLB advances, partially offset by higher senior debt outstanding.
Further details regarding average loans and deposits are included in the Business Segments Review section of this Financial Review.

Noninterest income as a percentage of total revenue was 36% for the first quarter of 2026 compared to 39% for the fourth quarter of 2025 and 36% for the first three months of 2025.
Asset management and brokerage fees increased compared to the fourth and first quarters of 2025. In both comparisons, the increase was a result of higher average equity markets and increased client activity. PNC’s discretionary client assets under management of $230 billion at March 31, 2026 decreased $4.0 billion compared to $234 billion at December 31, 2025, driven by decreases in spot

equity markets. PNC’s discretionary client assets under management at March 31, 2026 increased $20.0 billion from $210 billion at March 31, 2025 and included the impact from higher spot equity markets and positive net flows.
Capital markets and advisory fees decreased compared to the fourth quarter of 2025 as both higher underwriting and trading revenue were more than offset by lower merger and acquisition advisory fees. The increase compared to the first quarter of 2025 was primarily due to higher merger and acquisition advisory activity and increased trading revenue.
Card and cash management revenue increased compared to the fourth and first quarters of 2025 and included higher treasury management product revenue.
Lending and deposit services decreased compared to the fourth quarter of 2025 and included seasonally lower customer activity and the addition of FirstBank. Compared to the first three months of 2025, the increase reflected the addition of FirstBank customer activity.
Residential and commercial mortgage decreased compared to the fourth quarter of 2025 due to a $31 million decline in mortgage servicing rights valuation, net of economic hedge, driven by rate volatility. The decrease compared to the first three months of 2025 was primarily due to lower commercial mortgage revenue.
Other noninterest income decreased compared to both the fourth and first quarters of 2025. The decrease in both comparisons reflected lower private equity revenue, partially offset by net securities gains and lower negative Visa derivative adjustments. Visa derivative adjustments for the first quarter of 2026 were negative $32 million compared to negative $41 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 and negative $40 million for the first quarter of 2025.

Noninterest expense increased compared to the fourth and first quarters of 2025. In both comparisons, the increase included FirstBank operating and integration expenses. In comparison to the fourth quarter of 2025, the increase was partially offset by seasonally lower marketing spend. Compared to the first quarter of 2025, the increase was also driven by higher personnel costs as a result of increased business activity and higher equipment expenses reflecting continued investments in technology.
Effective Income Tax Rate
The effective income tax rate was 19.0% for the first quarter of 2026 compared to 12.7% for the fourth quarter of 2025 and 18.8% for the first three months of 2025. The fourth quarter of 2025 included the favorable resolution of several tax matters.

Our balance sheet was well positioned at March 31, 2026. In comparison to December 31, 2025:
•Total assets increased primarily due to higher loans and higher securities balances, including the impact of the FirstBank acquisition, partially offset by lower balances held with the FRB.
•Total liabilities increased reflecting higher deposits driven by the acquisition of FirstBank and higher borrowed funds.
•Total equity increased primarily due to stock issuances related to the FirstBank acquisition and net income, partially offset by dividends paid, common share repurchases and lower AOCI.

Consumer loans increased driven by the benefit of acquired FirstBank residential mortgage loans.
For additional information regarding our loan portfolio see the Credit Risk Management portion of the Risk Management section in this Financial Review and Note 4 Loans and Related Allowance for Credit Losses.
Investment Securities
Investment securities of $143.1 billion at March 31, 2026 increased $4.9 billion, or 4%, compared to December 31, 2025, primarily due to the acquisition of FirstBank investment securities and net purchase activity in both the available-for-sale and held-to-maturity portfolios.
The level and composition of the investment securities portfolio fluctuates over time based on many factors, including market conditions, loan and deposit growth and balance sheet management activities. We manage our investment securities portfolio to optimize returns, while providing a reliable source of liquidity for our banking and other activities, considering the LCR, NSFR and other internal and external guidelines and constraints.

(f)Includes available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities, which are recorded on our balance sheet at fair value and amortized cost, respectively.
Table 9 presents our investment securities portfolio by amortized cost and fair value. The difference between fair value and amortized cost at March 31, 2026 primarily reflected the impact of interest rate changes on the valuation of fixed-rate securities. We continually monitor the credit risk in our portfolio and maintain the allowance for investment securities at an appropriate level to absorb expected credit losses on our investment securities portfolio for the remaining contractual term of the securities adjusted for expected prepayments. See Note 3 Investment Securities for additional details regarding the allowance for investment securities.
The duration of investment securities was 3.6 years and 3.5 years at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. We estimate that at March 31, 2026 the effective duration of investment securities was 3.6 years for an immediate 50 basis points parallel increase in interest rates and 3.5 years for an immediate 50 basis points parallel decrease in interest rates. Comparable amounts at December 31, 2025 for the effective duration of investment securities were 3.5 years and 3.4 years, respectively.
Based on expected prepayment speeds, the weighted-average expected maturity of the investment securities portfolio was 5.2 years at both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

Deposits are considered an attractive source of funding due to their stability and relatively low cost to fund. Compared to December 31, 2025, our funding source composition included higher deposit balances and borrowed funds outstanding. Funding costs decreased compared to the fourth quarter of 2025 as growth in funding sources was more than offset by the impact of lower funding rates.
Total deposits increased compared to December 31, 2025 driven by higher interest-bearing and noninterest-bearing deposits, primarily due to the addition of FirstBank deposits. The increase in interest-bearing deposits was partially offset by a decline in brokered time deposits. Our total brokered deposit balance was $1.9 billion at March 31, 2026 compared to $5.1 billion at December 31, 2025, and was significantly below both our internal and regulatory guidelines and limits.
Borrowed funds increased primarily due to higher FHLB advances.

The level and composition of borrowed funds fluctuates over time based on many factors, including market conditions, capital considerations, and funding needs, which are primarily driven by changes in loan, deposit and investment securities balances. While our largest source of liquidity on a consolidated basis is the customer deposit base generated by our banking businesses, we also manage our borrowed funds to provide a reliable source of liquidity for our banking and other activities, considering our LCR and NSFR requirements and other internal and external guidelines and constraints. See the Liquidity and Capital Management portion of the Risk Management section and the Recent Regulatory Developments section in this Financial Review and the Supervision and Regulation section and Note 19 Regulatory Matters of our 2025 Form 10-K for additional information regarding our liquidity and capital activities.

See the Average Consolidated Balance Sheet and Net Interest Analysis section of this Financial Review for additional information on volume and related funding cost changes.
Shareholders’ Equity
Total shareholders’ equity of $63.6 billion at March 31, 2026 increased $3.0 billion, or 5%, compared to December 31, 2025, due to stock issuances related to the FirstBank acquisition of $3.0 billion and net income of $1.8 billion, partially offset by dividends paid of $0.8 billion, common share repurchases of $0.7 billion and a decline in AOCI of $0.4 billion.
BUSINESS SEGMENTS REVIEW
We have three reportable business segments: Retail Banking, Corporate & Institutional Banking and the Asset Management Group. Our reportable business segments are defined by the nature of products and services, types of customers, methods used to distribute products or provide services and similar financial performance.
Total business segment financial results differ from our consolidated reporting due to the remaining corporate operations, or other activities, that do not meet the criteria for disclosure as a separate reportable business. These other activities include residual activities such as asset and liability management activities including net securities gains or losses, ACL for investment securities, certain trading activities, certain runoff consumer loan portfolios, private equity investments, intercompany eliminations, corporate overhead net of allocations, tax adjustments that are not allocated to business segments, exited businesses and the residual impact from FTP operations. See Table 86 in Note 15 Segment Reporting for additional information.
Certain amounts included in this Business Segments Review differ from those amounts shown in Note 15, primarily due to the presentation in this Financial Review of business net interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis.
See Note 15 Segment Reporting for additional information on our business segments, including a description of each business.

Retail Banking
Retail Banking’s core strategy is to build lifelong, primary relationships by creating a sense of financial well-being and ease for our clients. Over time, we seek to deepen those relationships by meeting the broad range of our clients’ financial needs across savings, liquidity, lending, payments, investment and retirement solutions. We work to deliver these solutions in the most seamless and efficient way possible, meeting our customers where they are—whether in a branch, through digital channels, at an ATM or through our phone-based customer contact centers—while continuously optimizing the cost to sell and service. We believe that, over time, we can grow our customer base, enhance the breadth and depth of our client relationships and improve our efficiency through differentiated products and leading digital channels.

Corporate & Institutional Banking earnings in the first three months of 2026 increased $156 million compared to the same period in 2025 driven by higher revenue, partially offset by higher noninterest expense and a higher provision for credit losses.
Net interest income increased in the comparison primarily due to higher average loan and deposit balances as well as wider interest rate spreads on the value of deposits, partially offset by narrower interest rate spreads on the value of loans.
Noninterest income increased in the comparison primarily due to broad-based growth across the capital markets and advisory businesses and higher treasury management product revenue.
Provision for credit losses for the first three months of 2026 reflected portfolio activity, including loan growth, and updates to macroeconomic factors.
Noninterest expense increased in the comparison reflecting higher variable compensation associated with increased business activity.
Average loans increased compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025:
•Corporate Banking provides lending, equipment finance, treasury management and capital markets products and services to
mid-sized and large corporations, and government and not-for-profit entities. Average loans for this business increased reflecting new production and higher average utilization of loan commitments.
•Real Estate provides banking, financing, servicing and technology solutions for commercial real estate clients across the country. Average loans for this business declined reflecting lower average utilization of loan commitments and paydowns outpacing new production.
•Business Credit provides asset-based lending and equipment financing solutions. The loan and lease portfolio is mainly secured by business assets. Average loans for this business increased reflecting new production and a higher average utilization of loan commitments.
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q 15
•Commercial Banking provides lending, treasury management and capital markets products and services to smaller corporations and businesses. Average loans for this business declined driven by lower average utilization of loan commitments and paydowns outpacing new production.
The deposit strategy of Corporate & Institutional Banking is to remain disciplined on pricing and focused on growing and retaining relationship-based balances over time, executing on customer and segment-specific deposit growth strategies and continuing to provide funding and liquidity to PNC. Average total deposits increased compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, due to growth in interest-bearing deposits. We continue to actively monitor the interest rate environment and make adjustments to our deposit strategy in response to evolving market conditions, bank funding needs and client relationship dynamics.
Product Revenue
In addition to credit and deposit products for commercial customers, Corporate & Institutional Banking offers treasury management capabilities, capital markets and advisory products and services, and commercial mortgage banking activities, for customers of all business segments. On a consolidated basis, the revenue from these other services is included in net interest income and noninterest income, as appropriate. From a business perspective, the majority of the revenue and expense related to these services is reflected in the Corporate & Institutional Banking segment results, with the remainder reflected in the results of other businesses where the customer relationships exist. The Other Information section in Table 13 includes the consolidated revenue to PNC for treasury management and commercial mortgage banking services. A discussion of the consolidated revenue from these services follows.
The Treasury Management business provides corporations with cash and investment management services, receivables and disbursement management services, funds transfer services, and access to online/mobile information management and reporting services. Treasury management revenue is reported in noninterest income and net interest income. Noninterest income includes treasury management product revenue less earnings credits provided to customers on compensating deposit balances used to pay for products and services. Net interest income includes funding credit from all treasury management customer deposit balances. Compared to the first three months of 2025, treasury management revenue increased due to growth in average deposit balances, higher product revenue and wider interest rate spreads on the value of deposits.
Commercial mortgage banking activities include revenue derived from commercial mortgage servicing (both net interest income and
noninterest income), revenue derived from commercial mortgage loans held for sale and hedges related to those activities. Total
revenue from commercial mortgage banking activities decreased in the comparison primarily due to lower revenue from commercial mortgage loans held for sale and a lower benefit from commercial mortgage servicing rights valuation, net of hedge, partially offset by higher commercial mortgage loan servicing income.
Capital markets and advisory includes services and activities primarily related to merger and acquisition advisory, equity capital markets advisory, asset-backed financing, loan syndication, securities underwriting and customer-related trading. The increase in capital markets and advisory fees in the comparison was broad-based across products and services.

Loan Portfolio Characteristics and Analysis
Table 15: Details of Loans
In billions

We use several credit quality indicators, as further detailed in Note 4 Loans and Related Allowance for Credit Losses, to monitor and measure our exposure to credit risk within our loan portfolio. The following provides additional information about the significant loan classes that comprise our Commercial and Consumer portfolio segments.
Commercial
Commercial and Industrial
Commercial and industrial loans comprised 61% and 59% of our total loan portfolio at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The majority of our commercial and industrial loans are secured by collateral that provides a secondary source of repayment should a borrower experience cash generation difficulties. Examples of this collateral include short-term assets, such as accounts receivable, inventory and securities, and long-lived assets, such as equipment, owner-occupied real estate and other business assets.
We actively manage our commercial and industrial loans to assess any changes (both positive and negative) in the level of credit risk at both the borrower and portfolio level. To evaluate the level of credit risk, we assign internal risk ratings reflecting our estimates of the borrower’s PD and LGD for each related credit facility. This two-dimensional credit risk rating methodology provides granularity in the risk monitoring process and is updated on an ongoing basis through our credit risk management processes. In addition to monitoring the level of credit risk, we monitor different sources of concentration risk, including industry concentrations that may exist in our portfolio. Our commercial and industrial portfolio is well-diversified across industries as shown in the following table (based on the North American Industry Classification System).

(a) Represents loans to customers in the real estate and construction industries.
Owner-occupied commercial real estate loans totaled $10.3 billion and $9.0 billion at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. These loans are categorized as commercial and industrial loans as the credit decisioning for servicing these loans is based on the financial conditions of the owner, not the ability of the collateral to generate income. Owner-occupied commercial real estate loans are well-diversified across industries.
Commercial Real Estate
Commercial real estate loans of $34.8 billion as of March 31, 2026 comprised $21.9 billion related to commercial mortgages on income-producing properties, $8.3 billion of intermediate-term financing loans and $4.6 billion of real estate construction project loans. At December 31, 2025, comparable amounts were $29.6 billion, $17.4 billion, $8.2 billion and $4.0 billion, respectively. Commercial real estate primarily consists of an investment in land and/or buildings held to generate income, which serves as the primary source for the repayment of the loan. However, the disposition of the assigned collateral serves as a secondary source of repayment for the loan should the borrower experience cash generation difficulties.
We monitor credit risk associated with our commercial real estate loans similar to commercial and industrial loans by analyzing PD and LGD. Additionally, risks associated with commercial real estate loans tend to be correlated to the loan structure, collateral location and quality, project progress and business environment. These attributes are also monitored and utilized in assessing credit risk. The portfolio is geographically diverse due to the nature of our business involving clients throughout the U.S.

Commercial Real Estate: Office Portfolio
Real estate performance related to the office sector continues to be an area of focus. At March 31, 2026, our outstanding loan balances in the office portfolio totaled $5.5 billion, or 1.5% of total loans, while additional unfunded loan commitments totaled $0.4 billion. Within this population, criticized loans totaled 30.1% and nonperforming loans totaled 8.8%. We have established reserves of 8.9% against office loans, which we believe reflect the expected credit losses in this portfolio. Our office portfolio remains geographically diversified.
Consumer
Residential Real Estate
Residential real estate loans primarily consist of residential mortgage loans.
We obtain loan attributes at origination, including FICO scores and LTVs, and we update these and other credit metrics at least quarterly. We track borrower performance monthly. We also segment the mortgage portfolio into pools based on product type (e.g., nonconforming or conforming). This information is used for internal reporting and risk management. As part of our overall risk analysis and monitoring, we also segment the portfolio based upon loan delinquency, nonperforming status, modification and bankruptcy status, FICO scores, LTV and geographic concentrations.

We originate residential mortgage loans nationwide through our national mortgage business as well as within our branch network. Residential mortgage loans underwritten to agency standards, including conforming loan amount limits, are typically sold with servicing retained by us. We also originate nonconforming residential mortgage loans that do not meet agency standards, which we retain on our balance sheet. Our portfolio of originated nonconforming residential mortgage loans totaled $45.3 billion at March 31, 2026, with 39% located in California. Comparable amounts at December 31, 2025 were $39.5 billion and 46%, respectively.
Home Equity
Home equity loans of $26.2 billion as of March 31, 2026 were comprised of $22.4 billion of home equity lines of credit and $3.8 billion of closed-end home equity installment loans. At December 31, 2025, comparable amounts were $25.9 billion, $22.1 billion and $3.8 billion, respectively. Home equity lines of credit are a variable interest rate product with fixed rate conversion options available to certain borrowers.
Similar to residential real estate loans, we obtain loan attributes at origination, including FICO scores and LTVs, and we update these and other credit metrics at least quarterly. Borrower performance of this portfolio is tracked on a monthly basis. We also segment the population into pools based on product type (e.g., first lien product and second lien product) and track the historical performance of any related mortgage loans regardless of whether we hold such liens. This information is used for internal reporting and risk management. As part of our overall risk analysis and monitoring, we also segment the portfolio based upon loan delinquency, nonperforming status, modification and bankruptcy status, FICO scores, LTV, lien position and geographic concentration.
The credit performance of the majority of the home equity portfolio where we hold the first lien position is superior to the portion of the portfolio where we hold the second lien position but do not hold the first lien. Lien position information is generally determined at the time of origination and monitored on an ongoing basis for risk management purposes. We use a third-party service provider to obtain updated loan information, including lien and collateral data that is aggregated from public and private sources.

Automobile
At March 31, 2026, total auto loans of $16.3 billion were comprised of $15.4 billion in the indirect auto portfolio and $0.9 billion in the direct auto portfolio. At December 31, 2025, comparable amounts were $16.6 billion, $15.6 billion and $1.0 billion, respectively. The indirect auto portfolio consists of loans originated primarily through independent franchised dealers. This business is strategically aligned with our core retail banking business. For the total auto loan portfolio, weighted-average loan origination FICO score, calculated using the auto enhanced FICO scale, was 800 and the weighted-average term of loan originations was 72 months for the twelve months ended March 31, 2026. Comparable amounts for the twelve months ended December 31, 2025 were 799 and 71 months, respectively.
We offer both new and used auto financing to customers through our various channels. The portfolio balance was composed of 43% new vehicle loans and 57% used vehicle loans at both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
The auto loan portfolio’s performance is measured monthly, including both updated collateral values and FICO scores that are obtained at least quarterly. For internal reporting and risk management, we analyze the portfolio by product channel and product type and regularly evaluate default and delinquency experience. As part of our overall risk analysis and monitoring, we segment the portfolio by geography, channel, collateral attributes and credit metrics which include FICO score, LTV and term.
Nonperforming Assets and Loan Delinquencies
Nonperforming Assets
Nonperforming assets include nonperforming loans and leases, OREO, foreclosed and other assets. Nonperforming loans are those loans accounted for at amortized cost whose credit quality has deteriorated to the extent full collection of contractual principal and interest is not probable. Loans held for sale, certain government insured or guaranteed loans and loans accounted for under the fair value option are excluded from nonperforming loans. See Note 1 Accounting Policies in our 2025 Form 10-K for details on our nonaccrual policies.

As of March 31, 2026, approximately 96% of total nonperforming loans were secured by collateral.
Loan Delinquencies
We regularly monitor the level of loan delinquencies and believe these levels are a key indicator of credit quality in our loan portfolio. Measurement of delinquency status is based on the contractual terms of each loan. Loans that are 30 days or more past due are considered delinquent. Loan delinquencies include government insured or guaranteed loans, and loans accounted for under the fair value option. Amounts exclude loans held for sale.
We manage credit risk based on the risk profile of the borrower, repayment sources, underlying collateral, and other support given current events, economic conditions and expectations. We refine our practices to address operating environment changes such as inflation levels, industry specific risks, interest rate levels, the level of consumer savings and deposit balances, and structural and secular changes such as those that arose from the pandemic. We offer loan modifications and collection programs to assist our customers and mitigate losses.

Accruing loans past due 90 days or more continue to accrue interest because they are (i) well secured by collateral and are in the process of collection, (ii) managed in homogeneous portfolios with specified charge-off timeframes adhering to regulatory guidelines, or (iii) certain government insured or guaranteed loans. As such, they are excluded from nonperforming loans.
Loan Modifications
We may provide relief to our customers experiencing financial hardships through a variety of solutions. Commercial loan and lease modifications are based on each individual borrower’s situation, while consumer loan modifications are evaluated under our hardship relief programs. For additional information on our commercial real estate, office-related modification offerings, see the Commercial Real Estate portion of the Credit Risk Management section of this Financial Review.
See Note 4 Loans and Related Allowance for Credit Losses for additional information on loan modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty.
Allowance for Credit Losses
Our determination of the ACL is based on historical loss and performance experience, current economic conditions, the reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions and other relevant factors, including current borrower and/or transaction characteristics and assessments of the remaining estimated contractual term as of the balance sheet date. We maintain the ACL at an appropriate level for expected losses on our existing investment securities, loans, equipment finance leases, other financial assets and unfunded lending related commitments.
See Note 1 Accounting Policies and the Credit Risk Management section in our 2025 Form 10-K for additional discussion of our ACL, including details of our methodologies.

Liquidity and Capital Management
Our liquidity risk framework and related monitoring measures and tools, including internal liquidity stress testing as well as compliance with internal and regulatory limits and guidelines, are described in further detail in the Liquidity and Capital Management section of our 2025 Form 10-K.
One of the ways we monitor our liquidity is by reference to the LCR, a regulatory minimum liquidity requirement designed to ensure that covered banking organizations maintain an adequate level of liquidity to meet net liquidity needs over the course of a hypothetical 30-day stress scenario. PNC and PNC Bank calculate the LCR daily and are required to maintain a regulatory minimum of 100%. The LCR for PNC and PNC Bank exceeded the regulatory minimum requirement throughout the first quarter of 2026. Fluctuations in our LCR result from changes to the components of the calculation, including high-quality liquid assets and net cash outflows, as a result of ongoing business activity.
The NSFR is designed to measure the stability of the maturity structure of assets and liabilities of banking organizations over a one-year time horizon. PNC and PNC Bank calculate the NSFR daily and are required to maintain a regulatory minimum of 100%. The NSFR for PNC and PNC Bank exceeded the regulatory minimum requirement throughout the first quarter of 2026.

We provide additional information regarding regulatory liquidity requirements and their potential impact on us in the Supervision and Regulation section of Item 1 Business and Item 1A Risk Factors of our 2025 Form 10-K.
Sources of Liquidity
Our largest source of liquidity on a consolidated basis is the customer deposit base generated by our banking businesses. These deposits provide relatively stable and low-cost funding. Total deposits increased to $457.6 billion at March 31, 2026 from $440.9 billion at December 31, 2025 driven by higher interest-bearing and noninterest-bearing deposits, primarily due to the addition of FirstBank deposits. The increase in interest-bearing deposits was partially offset by lower brokered time deposits. As of March 31, 2026, uninsured deposits represented approximately 44% of our total deposit base, which is estimated based on the regulatory instructions in the Consolidated Reports of Condition and Income - FFIEC 031. The majority of our uninsured deposits are related to commercial operating and relationship accounts, which we define as commercial deposit customers who utilize two or more PNC products. See the Funding Sources section in the Consolidated Balance Sheet Review and the Business Segments Review of this Financial Review for additional information on our deposits and related strategies.
We may also obtain liquidity through various forms of funding, such as senior debt, subordinated debt, FHLB advances, securities sold under repurchase agreements, commercial paper and other short-term borrowings. See the Funding Sources section in the Consolidated Balance Sheet Review of this Financial Review and Note 8 Borrowed Funds included in this Report for additional information related to our borrowings.
Total senior and subordinated debt, on a consolidated basis, increased due to the following activity:

| January 1 | $ | 41.7 | ||||||
| Issuances | 4.1 | |||||||
| Calls and maturities | (3.0) | |||||||
| Other | (0.3) | |||||||
| March 31 | $ | 42.5 | ||||||
Additionally, PNC maintains access to contingent funding sources that include unused borrowing capacity and certain liquid assets. PNC has a contingency funding plan designed to ensure that liquidity sources are sufficient to meet ongoing obligations and commitments, particularly in the event of liquidity stress. This plan is designed to examine and quantify the organization’s liquidity under various internal liquidity stress scenarios and is periodically tested to assess the plan’s reliability. Additionally, the plan provides the strategies for addressing liquidity needs and responsive actions we would consider during liquidity stress events, which could include the issuance of incremental debt, preferred stock, or additional deposit actions, including the issuance of brokered time deposits. The plan also addresses the governance, frequency of reporting and the responsibilities of key departments in the event of liquidity stress.
PNC defines our primary contingent liquidity sources as cash held at the FRB, investment securities and unused borrowing capacity at the FHLB and FRB. The following table summarizes our primary contingent liquidity sources at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

Bank Liquidity
In addition to our primary contingent liquidity sources, under PNC Bank’s 2014 bank note program, as amended, PNC Bank may from time to time offer up to $40.0 billion aggregate principal amount outstanding at any one time of its unsecured senior and subordinated notes with maturity dates more than nine months (in the case of senior notes) and five years or more (in the case of subordinated notes) from their date of issue. At March 31, 2026, PNC Bank’s remaining capacity to issue under the program was $33.7 billion.
The following table details PNC Bank note redemptions during the first quarter of 2026.
Table 27: PNC Bank Notes Redeemed
| Redemption Date | Amount | Description of Redemption | ||||||
| January 15, 2026 | $500 million | All outstanding senior floating rate notes with an original scheduled maturity date of January 15, 2027. The redemption price was equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date of January 15, 2026. | ||||||
| January 15, 2026 | $1.25 billion | All outstanding 4.775% senior fixed-to-floating rate notes with an original scheduled maturity date of January 15, 2027.

See Note 17 Subsequent Events for details on the announcement of the May 13, 2026 redemption of all outstanding 4.543% senior fixed-to-floating rate notes with an original maturity date of May 13, 2027.
Under PNC Bank’s 2013 commercial paper program, PNC Bank has the ability to offer up to $10.0 billion of its commercial paper to provide additional liquidity. At March 31, 2026, there were no issuances outstanding under this program.
Additionally, PNC Bank may also access funding from the parent company through deposits placed at the bank or issuing intercompany unsecured notes.
Parent Company Liquidity
In addition to managing liquidity risk at the bank level, we manage the parent company’s liquidity. The parent company’s contractual obligations consist primarily of debt service related to parent company borrowings and funding non-bank affiliates. Additionally, the parent company maintains liquidity to fund discretionary activities such as paying dividends to our shareholders, share repurchases and acquisitions.
At March 31, 2026, available parent company liquidity totaled $28.9 billion. Parent company liquidity is held in intercompany cash and investments. For investments with longer durations, the related maturities are aligned with scheduled cash needs, such as the maturity of parent company debt obligations.
The principal source of parent company liquidity is the dividends or other capital distributions it receives from PNC Bank, which may be impacted by the following:
•Bank-level capital needs,
•Laws, regulations and the results of supervisory activities,
•Corporate policies,
•Contractual restrictions, and
•Other factors.
There are statutory and regulatory limitations on the ability of a national bank to pay dividends or make other capital distributions or to extend credit to the parent company or its non-bank subsidiaries. The amount available for dividend payments by PNC Bank to the parent company without prior regulatory approval was $5.4 billion at March 31, 2026. See Note 19 Regulatory Matters in our 2025 Form 10-K for further discussion of these limitations.
In addition to dividends from PNC Bank, other sources of parent company liquidity include cash and investments, as well as dividends and loan repayments from other subsidiaries and dividends or distributions from equity investments. We can also generate liquidity for the parent company and PNC’s non-bank subsidiaries through the issuance of debt and equity securities, including certain capital instruments, in public or private markets and commercial paper, and through other borrowings. Under the parent company’s 2014 commercial paper program, the parent company has the ability to offer up to $5.0 billion of commercial paper to provide additional liquidity. At March 31, 2026, there were no issuances outstanding under this program.

Parent company senior and subordinated debt carrying value totaled $36.3 billion and $33.7 billion at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
Contractual Obligations and Commitments
We enter into various contractual arrangements in the normal course of business, certain of which require future payments that could impact our liquidity and capital resources. See the Liquidity and Capital Management portion of the Risk Management section of our 2025 Form 10-K for more information on these future cash outflows. Additionally, in the normal course of business, we have various commitments outstanding, certain of which are not included on our Consolidated Balance Sheet. We provide information on our commitments in Note 9 Commitments.
Credit Ratings
PNC’s credit ratings affect the cost and availability of short and long-term funding, collateral requirements for certain derivative instruments and the ability to offer certain products.
In general, rating agencies base their ratings on many quantitative and qualitative factors, including capital adequacy, liquidity, asset quality, business mix, level and quality of earnings, and the current legislative and regulatory environment, including implied government support. A decrease, or potential decrease, in credit ratings could impact access to the capital markets and/or increase the cost of debt, and thereby adversely affect liquidity and financial condition. For additional information on the potential impacts from a downgrade to our credit ratings, see Item 1A Risk Factors in our 2025 Form 10-K.

Capital Management
Detailed information on our capital management processes and activities is included in the Supervision and Regulation section of Item 1 of our 2025 Form 10-K.
We manage our funding and capital positions by making adjustments to our balance sheet size and composition, issuing or redeeming debt, issuing equity or other capital instruments, executing treasury stock transactions and capital redemptions or repurchases, and managing dividend policies and retaining earnings.
In the first quarter of 2026, PNC returned $1.4 billion of capital to shareholders, reflecting $0.7 billion of dividends on common shares and $0.7 billion of common share repurchases. The SCB framework permits capital return in amounts in excess of SCB minimum levels. Consistent with this framework, PNC had approximately 32% of the 100 million common shares still available for repurchase at March 31, 2026 under the repurchase program previously approved by our Board of Directors. Share repurchase activity in the second quarter of 2026 is expected to approximate $600 million to $700 million. PNC may adjust share repurchase activity depending on market and economic conditions, as well as other factors. PNC's SCB beginning October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2027 is the regulatory minimum of 2.5%.
On April 2, 2026, the PNC Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend on common stock of $1.70 per share paid on May 5, 2026 to shareholders of record at the close of business April 14, 2026.

(b)Basel III standardized approach risk-weighted assets are based on the Basel III standardized approach rules and include credit and market risk-weighted assets.
(c)The supplementary leverage ratio is calculated based on tier 1 capital divided by supplementary leverage exposure, which takes into account the quarterly average of both on balance sheet assets as well as certain off-balance sheet items, including loan commitments and potential future exposure under derivative contracts.
(d)The leverage ratio is calculated based on tier 1 capital divided by average quarterly adjusted total assets.
PNC’s regulatory risk-based capital ratios 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, nonaccruals, FDMs, past due exposures and equity exposures are generally subject to higher risk weights than other types of exposures.
At March 31, 2026, PNC and PNC Bank were considered “well capitalized” based on applicable U.S. regulatory capital ratio requirements. To qualify as “well capitalized,” PNC must have Basel III capital ratios of at least 6% for tier 1 risk-based capital and 10% for total risk-based capital, and PNC Bank must have Basel III capital ratios of at least 6.5% for common equity tier 1 risk-based capital, 8% for tier 1 risk-based capital, 10% for total risk-based capital and a leverage ratio of at least 5%.
Federal banking regulators have stated that they expect the largest U.S. BHCs, including PNC, to have a level of regulatory capital well in excess of the regulatory minimum and have required the largest U.S. BHCs, including PNC, to have a capital buffer sufficient to withstand losses and allow them to meet the credit needs of their customers through estimated stress scenarios. We seek to manage our capital consistent with these regulatory principles, and we believe that our March 31, 2026 capital levels were aligned with them.
We provide additional information regarding regulatory capital requirements and some of their potential impacts, including the proposed rules to adjust the Basel III framework, in the Recent Regulatory Developments section in this Financial Review and the Supervision and Regulation section of Item 1 Business, Item 1A Risk Factors and Note 19 Regulatory Matters in our 2025 Form 10-K .

Market Risk Management
See the Market Risk Management portion of the Risk Management section in our 2025 Form 10-K for additional discussion regarding market risk.
Market Risk Management – Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk results primarily from our traditional banking activities of gathering deposits and extending loans. Many factors, including economic and financial conditions, movements in interest rates and consumer preferences, affect the difference between the interest that we earn on assets, the interest that we pay on liabilities and the level of our noninterest-bearing funding sources. Due to the repricing term mismatches and embedded options inherent in certain of these products, changes in market interest rates not only affect expected near-term earnings, but also the economic values of these assets and liabilities.
Our Asset and Liability Management group centrally manages interest rate risk as prescribed in our market risk-related risk management policies, which are approved by management’s ALCO and the Risk Committee of the Board of Directors.
PNC utilizes sensitivities of NII and EVE to a set of interest rate scenarios to identify and measure its short-term and long-term structural interest rate risks.
The following table includes NII sensitivity results as of March 31, 2026 and 2025.
Table 32: Net Interest Income Sensitivity Analysis
| March 31, 2026 | March 31, 2025 | |||||||||||||
| Net Interest Income Sensitivity Simulation (a) | ||||||||||||||
| Effect on NII in first year from shocked interest rate: | ||||||||||||||
| 200 basis point instantaneous increase | — | % | — | % | ||||||||||
| 200 basis point instantaneous decrease | (1.4) | % | (1.2) | % | ||||||||||
(a)The effect on NII in the first year from a 100 basis point increase is approximately equal to the disclosed results for the 200 basis point scenario. The impact of a 100 basis point decrease is approximately one third of the disclosed results for the 200 basis point scenario.
When forecasting NII, we make certain key assumptions that can materially impact the resulting sensitivities, including the following:
Future Balance Sheet Composition: Our balance sheet composition is dynamic and based on our forecasted expectations. The projected balance sheet composition by the end of year one is generally consistent with the spot composition at March 31, 2026.
Balance Sheet Forecast: Our balance sheet forecast is based on various assumptions that include key interest rate risk aspects such as loan and deposit growth, as well as mix, and is consistent with our guidance.
Deposit Betas: Deposit pricing changes are primarily driven by changes in the Federal Funds rate. PNC’s cumulative deposit beta was 46% through March 2026. We define the cumulative deposit beta as the change in deposit rate paid on total interest-bearing deposits divided by the change in the upper level of the average stated Federal Funds rate range since August 2024, the start of the current easing rate cycle. For rate sensitivity purposes, PNC assumes the cumulative deposit beta will decrease slightly from the current level. For interest rate risk modeling, PNC uses dynamic beta models to adjust assumed repricing sensitivity depending on market rate levels as well as other factors. The dynamic beta assumptions reflect historical experience as well as future expectations, and are periodically updated to reflect the current view of future expectations. Actual deposit rates paid may differ from modeled projections due to variables such as competition for deposits and customer behavior.
Asset Prepayments: PNC includes prepayment assumptions for both loan and investment portfolios. Mortgage and home equity portfolios utilize an industry standard model to drive estimated prepayments that increase in lower rate environments. Commercial and other consumer loan portfolios assume static constant prepayment rates that are consistent across rate scenarios, as those portfolios historically do not exhibit significantly different prepayment behaviors based upon the level of market rates.
Impact of Derivatives: As part of our risk management strategy, PNC uses interest rate derivatives, some of which are forward starting, to hedge floating rate commercial loans. PNC had $79.3 billion in active and forward starting receive fix / pay float swaps used to hedge floating rate commercial loans as of March 31, 2026, with a weighted average duration of 2.3 years and an average fixed rate of 3.63%. Additionally, PNC utilizes receive fix / pay float swaps to hedge fixed rate debt, as well as pay fix / receive float swaps to hedge the investment securities portfolio. See Note 13 Financial Derivatives for additional information on how we use derivatives to hedge these financial instruments.

The following table includes EVE sensitivity results as of March 31, 2026 and 2025.

EVE measures the present value of all projected future cash flows associated with a point-in-time balance sheet and does not include projected new volume. EVE sensitivity to interest rate changes is a complementary metric to NII sensitivity analysis and represents an estimation of long-term interest rate risk. PNC calculates its EVE sensitivity by measuring the changes in the economic value of assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet instruments in response to an instantaneous +/-200 bps parallel shift in interest rates. Similar to the NII sensitivity analysis, we incorporate dynamic deposit repricing and loan prepayment assumptions. Directionally, higher deposit beta assumptions result in increasing liability sensitivity whereas lower deposit betas increase asset sensitivity. Conceptually similar, higher loan prepayment assumptions cause an increase in asset sensitivity and lower prepayments result in an increase in liability sensitivity. These behavioral modeling assumptions are largely consistent between the EVE and NII sensitivity analyses, and also share the same starting balance sheet position as of March 31, 2026. Deposit attrition is also a significant contributor to EVE sensitivity. Deposit attrition is projected based on a dynamic model developed using long-term historical deposit behavior in addition to management assumptions. PNC performs various sensitivity analyses to understand the impact of faster and slower deposit attrition, loan prepayments and deposit betas on our risk metrics, with the results reported to ALCO.
Compared to the first quarter of 2025, there have been no material changes to our NII sensitivity and EVE sensitivity assumptions, including data sources that drive assumptions setting.
Market Risk Management – Customer-Related Trading Risk
We engage in fixed income securities, derivatives and foreign exchange transactions to support our customers’ investing and hedging activities. These transactions, related hedges and the credit and funding valuation adjustment related to our customer derivatives portfolio are marked-to-market daily and reported as customer-related trading activities. We do not engage in proprietary trading of these products.
We use VaR as the primary means to measure and monitor market risk in customer-related trading activities. VaR is used to estimate the probability of portfolio losses based on the statistical analysis of historical market risk factors. A diversified VaR reflects empirical
correlations across different asset classes. VaR is computed with positions and market risk factors updated daily to ensure each portfolio is operating within its acceptable limits. See the Market Risk Management – Customer-Related Trading Risk section of our 2025 Form 10-K for more information on our models used to calculate VaR and our backtesting process.
Customer-related trading revenue was $91 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $34 million for the same period in 2025, and is recorded in Capital markets and advisory noninterest income and Other interest income on our Consolidated Income Statement. The increase was primarily due to higher derivative customer-related trading revenue.
Market Risk Management – Equity And Other Investment Risk
Equity investment risk is the risk of potential losses associated with investing in both private and public equity markets. In addition to extending credit, taking deposits, underwriting securities and trading financial instruments, we make and manage direct investments in a variety of transactions, including management buyouts, recapitalizations and growth financings in a variety of industries. We also have investments in affiliated and non-affiliated funds that make similar investments in private equity, consistent with regulatory limitations. The economic and/or book value of these investments and other assets are directly affected by changes in market factors.
Various PNC business units manage our equity and other investment activities. Our businesses are responsible for making investment decisions within the approved policy limits and associated guidelines.

The largest component of our other equity investments is our private equity portfolio. The private equity portfolio is an illiquid portfolio consisting of mezzanine and equity investments that vary by industry, stage and type of investment. Private equity investments carried at estimated fair value totaled $2.7 billion and $2.8 billion at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. As of March 31, 2026, $2.4 billion was invested directly in a variety of companies, and $0.3 billion was invested indirectly through various private equity funds. Changes in fair value of private equity investments are recognized in Other noninterest income.
PNC owns Visa Class B-2 common shares which were previously converted from Visa Class B-1 common shares as a result of the
Visa exchange program in 2024 and are included in our other equity investments at cost. The Visa Class B-2 common shares are transferable only under limited circumstances, either the resolution of the pending interchange litigation or through the launch of another exchange program by Visa, which will allow PNC to convert a portion of its Visa Class B-2 common shares into freely transferable Visa Class C common shares as described in Note 17 Subsequent Events. At March 31, 2026, the estimated value of our total investment in the Visa Class B-2 common shares was approximately $0.8 billion, while our cost basis was insignificant. The estimated value does not represent fair value of the Visa Class B-2 common shares given the shares’ limited transferability and the lack of observable transactions in the marketplace. See Note 14 Fair Value and Note 20 Legal Proceedings in our 2025 Form 10-K for additional information regarding our Visa agreements. See Note 17 Subsequent Events for additional details on Visa’s recently announced exchange offer for Visa Class B-2 common stock.
We also have certain other equity investments, the majority of which represent investments in affiliated and non-affiliated funds with both traditional and alternative investment strategies. Net losses related to these investments were $1 million and $4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025, respectively.
Financial Derivatives
Financial derivatives involve, to varying degrees, market and credit risk. Derivatives represent contracts between parties that usually require little or no initial net investment and result in one party delivering cash or another type of asset to the other party based on a notional and an underlying as specified in the contract. Therefore, cash requirements and exposure to credit risk are significantly less than the notional amount on these instruments.
We use a variety of financial derivatives as part of the overall asset and liability risk management process to help manage exposure to market (primarily interest rate) and credit risk inherent in our business activities. We also enter into derivatives with customers to facilitate their risk management activities.
Further information on our financial derivatives is presented in Note 1 Accounting Policies, Note 14 Fair Value and Note 15 Financial Derivatives in our 2025 Form 10-K and in Note 12 Fair Value and Note 13 Financial Derivatives in this Report.
Not all elements of market and credit risk are addressed through the use of financial derivatives, and such instruments may be ineffective for their intended purposes due to unanticipated market changes, among other reasons.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION
PNC reports certain financial measures that are not in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures are provided as supplemental information to the financial measures in this Report that are calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. While we believe that these non-GAAP measures are useful tools for the purpose of evaluating certain financial results, they should not be considered superior to and are not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related GAAP financial measures presented in this Report.

(a)The interest income earned on certain interest-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.
RECENT REGULATORY DEVELOPMENTS
Basel Capital Proposals
On March 19, 2026, the federal banking agencies issued proposals to enhance and modernize Basel III capital rules and to adopt the final components of the Basel III international capital standards. The agencies first issued a so-called Basel III Endgame proposal in July of 2023, which would have significantly revised and increased the capital requirements for large banking organizations, including PNC and PNC Bank. The agencies did not finalize that proposal given negative feedback from the public. The new 2026 proposals are designed to adopt the final Basel III international standards and to streamline and enhance the risk-sensitivity of the capital rules. The first proposal would revise the capital requirements for the largest firms, Category I and II, and require them to calculate their risk-based capital ratios using an expanded risk‑based approach. Other firms, including PNC, are allowed to opt in to use this approach. Under this approach, firms would be subject to a stricter definition of regulatory capital and required to include most of the elements of AOCI in CET1 capital. Firms would not be required to deduct mortgage servicing assets from regulatory capital. Under the expanded risk-based approach, the risk-weighted assets would comprise credit risk, operational risk, and, if applicable, market risk and credit valuation adjustment requirements. The second proposal would revise the standardized approach in the current Basel III capital rules, which would apply to all firms (except for Category I and II firms), unless they opt in to use the expanded risk-based approach. Category III and IV firms would be required to include most of the elements of AOCI in CET1 capital, subject to a five-year transition period. Similar to the first proposal, firms would not be required to deduct mortgage servicing assets from regulatory capital. Under the standardized approach, the risk-weighted assets would comprise credit risk, and, if applicable, market risk and credit valuation adjustment requirements. The proposal would also revise certain definitions in the current capital rules and introduce greater granularity for certain asset classes, including retail and residential mortgage exposures. The comment period on both proposals is open until June 18, 2026.
Resolution and Recovery Planning
On April 1, 2026, as part of the agency’s ongoing effort to identify and eliminate unnecessary regulatory burden, the OCC published a final rule that rescinds its recovery planning guidelines that apply to large insured national banks, including PNC Bank. The final rule is effective May 1, 2026.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS
Our consolidated financial statements are prepared by applying certain accounting policies. Note 1 Accounting Policies in our 2025 Form 10-K describes the most significant accounting policies that we use. Certain of these policies require us to make estimates or economic assumptions that may vary under different assumptions or conditions, and such variations may significantly affect our reported results and financial position for the period or in future periods. The following details the critical estimates and judgments around the ACL:
Allowance for Credit Losses
We maintain the ACL at levels that we believe to be appropriate as of the balance sheet date to absorb expected credit losses on our existing investment securities, loans, equipment finance leases, other financial assets and unfunded lending related commitments, for the remaining estimated contractual term of the assets or exposures, taking into consideration expected prepayments and estimated recoveries. Our determination of the ACL is based on historical loss and performance experience, as well as current borrower and
38 The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q
transaction characteristics including collateral type and quality, current economic conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions and other relevant factors. We use methods sensitive to changes in economic conditions to interpret these factors and to estimate expected credit losses. We evaluate and, when appropriate, enhance the quality of our data and models and other methods used to estimate the ACL on an ongoing basis. The major drivers of ACL estimates include, but are not limited to:
•Current economic conditions: Our forecast of expected losses depends on economic conditions as of the estimation date. As current economic conditions evolve, forecasted losses could be materially affected.
•Scenario weights and design: Our loss estimates are sensitive to the shape, direction and rate of change of macroeconomic forecasts and thus vary significantly between upside and downside scenarios. Changes to the probability weights assigned to these scenarios and the timing of peak business cycles reflected by the scenarios could materially affect our loss estimates.
•Current borrower quality: Our forecast of expected losses depends on current borrower and transaction characteristics, including credit metrics and collateral type/quality. As borrower quality evolves, forecasted losses could be materially affected.
•Portfolio composition: Changes to portfolio volume and mix could materially affect our estimates, as CECL reserves
would be recognized upon origination or acquisition and derecognized upon paydown, maturity or sale.
We also incorporate qualitative factors in the ACL that reflect our best estimate of expected losses that may not be adequately represented in our quantitative methods or economic assumptions, as discussed below and in the Allowance for Credit Losses section of Note 1 Accounting Policies in our 2025 Form 10-K.
For all assets and unfunded lending related commitments within the scope of the CECL standard, the applicable ACL is composed of one or a combination of the following components: (i) collectively assessed or pooled reserves, (ii) individually assessed reserves and
(iii) qualitative (judgmental) reserves. Through this approach, we believe the reserve levels appropriately reflect the expected credit losses in the portfolio as of the balance sheet date.
Our methodologies and key assumptions are further discussed in Note 1 Accounting Policies in our 2025 Form 10-K. See also Note 1 Accounting Policies in this Report for information on our adoption of ASU 2025-08 - Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Purchased Loans, including how we determined the allowance for PSLs.
Reasonable and Supportable Economic Forecast
Pursuant to the CECL standard, we are required to consider reasonable and supportable forecasts in estimating expected credit losses. For this purpose, we have established a framework that includes a three-year forecast period and the use of four economic scenarios with associated probability weights, which in combination create a forecast of expected economic outcomes. Credit losses estimated in our reasonable and supportable forecast period are sensitive to the shape and severity of the scenarios used and weights assigned to them.
To forecast the distribution of economic outcomes over the reasonable and supportable forecast period, we generate four economic forecast scenarios using a combination of quantitative macroeconomic models, other measures of economic activity and forward-looking expert judgment. Each scenario is then given an associated probability (weight) to represent our current expectation within that distribution over the forecast period. This process is informed by current economic conditions, expected business cycle evolution and the expert judgment of PNC’s RAC. This approach seeks to provide a reasonable representation of the forecast of expected economic outcomes and is used to estimate expected credit losses across a variety of loans, securities and other financial assets. Each quarter, the scenarios and their respective weights are presented to RAC for approval.
The scenarios used for the period ended March 31, 2026 consider, among other factors, ongoing geopolitical conflicts, higher energy prices and the impacts of trade and fiscal policy, including tariffs, on the U.S. economic outlook. Given these factors, growth is expected to remain steady with current levels in the coming quarters. While recession risks remain elevated, our most likely expectation is that the U.S. economy avoids a recession. We believe the economic scenarios effectively reflect the distribution of potential economic outcomes.
We used a number of economic variables in our scenarios, with two of the most significant drivers being real GDP and the U.S. unemployment rate. The following table presents a comparison of these two economic variables based on the weighted-average scenario forecasts used in determining our ACL at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

Real GDP growth is expected to end 2026 at 1.2% on a weighted average basis, up from the 0.5% assumed at December 31, 2025. Growth continues through 2027, reaching 1.6% in the fourth quarter of 2027 before increasing to 2.0% in 2028. Unemployment is expected to increase slightly over the next year. The weighted-average unemployment rate will end 2026 at 4.8%, peaking at 5.1% in mid-2027, before improving to 4.6% by the end of 2028.
Qualitative Component
As discussed in the Allowance for Credit Losses section of Note 1 Accounting Policies in our 2025 Form 10-K, we incorporate qualitative reserves in the ACL that reflect our best estimate of expected losses that may not be adequately represented in our quantitative methods or economic assumptions. Qualitative factors may include, but are not limited to, inherent forecasting limitations, model imprecision, timing of available information, and/or emerging and ongoing credit risks. At March 31, 2026, the qualitative framework considers PNC’s view of the current state of the economy, which continues to reflect uncertainty due to the fundamental change in office demand, tariff and trade driven pressures and stress on consumers. Our most significant qualitative factor was related to the office portfolio of the commercial real estate loan class.

Based on that evaluation, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) were effective as of March 31, 2026, and that there has been no change in PNC’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the first quarter of 2026 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
As permitted by SEC guidance that an assessment of internal controls over financial reporting of a recently acquired business may be excluded from management’s evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures for up to a year from the date of acquisition, we have excluded FirstBank from management’s reporting on internal control over financial reporting for the quarter ended March 31, 2026. We will continue to evaluate the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting as we complete the integration of FirstBank with that of PNC and PNC Bank and will make changes to our internal control framework, as necessary. The acquisition of FirstBank contributed $29.1 billion of assets, or 5% of our total assets, at March 31, 2026 and $266 million of revenue, or 4% of our total revenue, for the three months ended March 31, 2026.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
We make statements in this Report, 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 in 2026, but slower economic growth in 2026 than in 2025 and 2024. The baseline forecast anticipates real GDP growth slowing to around 1.7% in 2026, with continued modest job gains and the unemployment rate moving slightly higher, to around 4.6% at year’s end. CPI inflation will peak at around 3.5% in mid-2026, with core CPI inflation at around 2.6%. An extended conflict with Iran and higher energy prices are significant risks to the outlook, both for inflation and growth, and a reversal in sentiment around AI or a large decline in equity prices would be drags. Weaker labor force growth could lead to weaker long-run growth.
–Our baseline forecast is for the Federal Reserve to keep the federal funds rate unchanged throughout 2026 and into 2027, in a range between 3.50% and 3.75%. However, there are two-sided risks to this outlook: (1) if the conflict with Iran persists and inflation proves more persistent than expected the Federal Reserve may raise rates, or (2) if growth falters or recession emerges there could be a deep and prolonged easing in monetary policy.
•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 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.
42 The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q
–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.
•Business and operating results can also be affected by widespread manmade, natural and other disasters (including severe weather events), health emergencies, dislocations, geopolitical instabilities or events, terrorist activities, system failures or disruptions, security breaches, cyberattacks, international hostilities, or other extraordinary events beyond PNC’s control through impacts on the economy and financial markets generally or on us or our counterparties, customers or third-party vendors and service providers specifically.
We provide greater detail regarding these as well as other factors in our 2025 Form 10-K and elsewhere in this Report, including in the Risk Factors and Risk Management sections and the Legal Proceedings and Commitments Notes in these reports. Our forward-looking statements may also be subject to other risks and uncertainties, including those discussed elsewhere in this Report or in our other filings with the SEC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
THE PNC FINANCIAL SERVICES GROUP, INC.
Unaudited
See page 93 for a glossary of certain terms and acronyms used in this Report.
BUSINESS
PNC is one of the largest diversified financial services companies in the U.S. and is headquartered in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
NOTE 1 A CCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Financial Statement Presentation
Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the parent company and its subsidiaries, most of which are wholly-owned, certain partnership interests and VIEs.
On January 5, 2026, we acquired FirstBank Holding Company, including its banking subsidiary, FirstBank. Our results for the three months ended March 31, 2026 reflect FirstBank’s acquired business operations for the period since the acquisition closed on January 5, 2026 and our balance sheet at March 31, 2026 includes FirstBank balances. See Note 2 Acquisition Activity for additional information on this acquisition.
We prepared these consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP. We have eliminated intercompany accounts and transactions. We have also reclassified certain prior-year amounts to conform to the current period presentation, which did not have a
material impact on our consolidated financial condition or results of operations.
In our opinion, the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all normal, recurring adjustments needed to state fairly our results for the interim periods. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year or any other interim period.
We have also considered the impact of subsequent events on these consolidated financial statements through the date of issuance of the consolidated financials.
When preparing these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements, we have assumed that you have read the audited consolidated financial statements included in our 2025 Form 10-K. Reference is made to Note 1 Accounting Policies in our 2025 Form 10-K for a detailed description of significant accounting policies. These interim consolidated financial statements serve to update our 2025 Form 10-K and may not include all information and Notes necessary to constitute a complete set of financial statements.
Loans
Effective January 1, 2026, PNC updated its defined loan classes (classes of financing receivables) as follows: (i) equipment lease financing loans were reclassified to the commercial and industrial loan class based on similarities in the manner in which credit risk is monitored and assessed within these portfolios, as well as materiality considerations, and (ii) education loans were reclassified to the other consumer loan class based on materiality considerations. All impacted disclosures have been updated accordingly, and prior periods have been adjusted to conform with the current presentation.
Allowance for Credit Losses
Purchased Seasoned Loans
On January 1, 2026, we adopted ASU 2025-08 - Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Purchased Loans, which expanded the population of acquired financial assets subject to the gross-up approach. Purchased seasoned loans, or PSLs, are acquired loans that, at acquisition, have not experienced a more-than-insignificant credit deterioration since origination and are deemed seasoned. A loan is seasoned if it was purchased more than 90 days after origination and PNC was not involved in the origination of the loan. All loans (excluding credit cards) that are acquired without credit deterioration through a business combination are deemed seasoned.
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q 49
The allowance for PSLs is determined at the time of acquisition, as the estimated expected credit loss of the outstanding balance or par value, based on the methodologies described in our 2025 Form 10-K for loans. In accordance with CECL, the allowance recognized at acquisition is added to the acquisition date purchase price to determine the asset’s amortized cost basis.
Use of Estimates
We prepared these consolidated financial statements using financial information available at the time of preparation, which requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. Our most significant estimates pertain to the ACL and our fair value measurements. Actual results may differ from the estimates, and the differences may be material to the consolidated financial statements.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
| Accounting Standards Update | Description | Financial Statement Impact | ||||||
Purchased Loans - ASU 2025-08 Issued November 2025 | • Required effective date of January 1, 2027; early adoption is permitted. • Expands the population of acquired financial assets subject to the gross-up approach, which requires recognition of an ACL for the estimate of credit losses at the acquisition date. • Clarifies that loans (excluding credit cards) acquired without credit deterioration and deemed “seasoned” are purchased seasoned loans and accounted for using the gross-up approach at acquisition. • Requires entities to evaluate whether loans acquired in an asset acquisition (or initially recognized through the consolidation of a VIE) are deemed “seasoned”. A loan is seasoned if it was purchased at least 90 days after origination and the acquirer was not involved in the origination of the loan. All loans that are acquired without credit deterioration through a business combination are deemed “seasoned”. • Requires a prospective transition approach; the ASU is applied to loans that are acquired on or after the initial application date. | • We adopted this ASU on January 1, 2026. • Adoption of this ASU resulted in more acquired loans using the gross-up approach, primarily through our acquisition of FirstBank; under the gross-up approach, a reserve is established through an increase to the loan’s amortized cost basis, thus avoiding the need to provide for a reserve on these acquired loans through Provision for credit losses. See Note 2 Acquisition Activity for more information on our acquisition of FirstBank. Otherwise, this ASU did not materially impact our Consolidated Income Statement, Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, Consolidated Balance Sheet, Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity or Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. | ||||||
NOTE 2 A CQUISITION ACTIVITY
Acquisition of FirstBank Holding Company
On January 5, 2026, PNC acquired FirstBank Holding Company including its banking subsidiary, FirstBank, representing $4.2 billion of consideration in cash and PNC common stock to FirstBank Holding Company common shareholders and Series A preferred shareholders, and $0.1 billion of consideration to Series B preferred shareholders through the exchange of each share of Series B preferred stock into a newly created series of preferred stock of PNC, designated Series X. This acquisition accelerates our expansion in Colorado and Arizona.
PNC has accounted for this transaction as a business combination. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities from FirstBank were recorded at fair value as of the acquisition date. The determination of fair value requires management to make estimates about discount rates, future expected cash flows, market conditions and other future events that are highly subjective in nature and subject to change. Fair value estimates related to the assets and liabilities from FirstBank are subject to adjustment for up to one year after the closing date of the acquisition as additional information becomes available. Valuations subject to adjustment include, but are not limited to, loans, certain deposits, certain other assets and the core deposit intangibles.
PNC incurred $98 million in costs for the three months ended March 31, 2026, in connection with the transaction. These costs are primarily comprised of legal, advisory and personnel related costs.

(a) Amount includes $29 million of deferred restricted stock compensation and $13 million withheld to satisfy certain tax obligations.
Preliminary goodwill of $2.3 billion recorded in connection with the transaction resulted from the reputation, operating model and expertise of FirstBank. The amount of goodwill recorded reflected the increased market share and related synergies that resulted from the acquisition and represents the excess purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net assets from FirstBank. The goodwill was allocated to our Retail Banking segment and is not deductible for income tax purposes. See Note 6 Goodwill and Mortgage Servicing Rights for additional information on our goodwill.
The following table includes the fair value and unpaid principal balance of the loans from the FirstBank acquisition.

The following is a description of the methods used to determine the fair values of significant assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the acquisition.
Cash and Due from Banks and Interest-earning Deposits with Banks
The carrying amount of these assets is a reasonable estimate of fair value based on the short-term nature of these assets.
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q 51
Investment Securities
Investment securities were classified either in the held-to-maturity portfolio or the available-for-sale portfolio based on management’s intent, and in the case of held-to-maturity, the ability to hold the securities to maturity. Fair values for investment securities were determined using third-party pricing services, dealer quotes, or subsequent sale prices and were subject to price validation testing independent of the risk-taking function. See Note 14 Fair Value in our 2025 Form 10-K for more information on the valuation methodologies used to determine fair values for investment securities.
Loans
Fair value for loans is based on a discounted cash flow methodology that considered credit loss and prepayment expectations, market interest rates and other market factors, such as liquidity, from the perspective of a market participant. Loan cash flows were generated on an individual loan basis. The PD, LGD, exposure at default and prepayment assumptions are the key factors driving credit losses which are embedded into the estimated cash flows.
Core Deposit Intangible
This intangible asset represents the value of certain client deposit relationships. The fair value was estimated utilizing the cost method. Appropriate consideration was given to deposit costs including servicing costs, client retention and alternative funding source costs at the time of acquisition. The discount rate used was derived taking into account the estimated cost of equity, risk-free return rate and risk premium for the market and specific risk related to the asset’s cash flows. The core deposit intangible is being amortized over 10 years using an accelerated depreciation methodology.
Deposits
The fair values for time deposits were estimated by discounting contractual cash flows using current market rates for instruments with similar maturities. For deposits with no defined maturity, carrying values approximate fair values.
Purchased Loan Activity
Under CECL, PNC is required to determine whether purchased loans held for investment have experienced more-than-insignificant deterioration in credit quality since origination. PNC considers a variety of factors in connection with the identification of more-than-insignificant deterioration in credit quality, or PCD, including but not limited to nonperforming status, delinquency, risk ratings, FDM classification, and other qualitative factors that indicate deterioration in credit quality since origination. PNC established the initial ACL for PCD loans through an adjustment to FirstBank loan balances and the related purchase accounting mark. The non-credit discount is accreted through Interest income using the effective interest rate method over the contractual life of the loan. In accordance with GAAP, there was no carryover of the ACL that had been previously recorded by FirstBank. The following table presents PCD loans as of January 5, 2026.

(a) At March 31, 2026, the accrued interest associated with our held-to-maturity and available-for-sale portfolios totaled $212 million and $266 million, respectively. The comparable amounts at December 31, 2025 were $219 million and $348 million, respectively. These amounts are included in Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
(b) Credit ratings represent a primary credit quality indicator used to monitor and manage credit risk. Of our total securities portfolio, 97 % were rated AAA/AA at both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
(c) Amortized cost is presented net of allowance of $61 million for securities available-for-sale, primarily related to non-agency commercial mortgage-backed securities, and $5 million for securities held-to-maturity at both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
(d) Held-to-maturity securities transferred from available-for-sale are included in held-to-maturity at fair value at the time of the transfer. The amortized cost of held-to-maturity securities included net unrealized losses of $2.5 billion at March 31, 2026 related to securities transferred, which are offset in AOCI, net of tax. The comparable amount at December 31, 2025 was $2.7 billion.
The fair value of investment securities is impacted by interest rates, credit spreads, market volatility and liquidity conditions. Securities available-for-sale are carried at fair value with net unrealized gains and losses included in Total shareholders’ equity as AOCI, unless credit-related. Net unrealized gains and losses are determined by taking the difference between the fair value of a security and its amortized cost, net of any allowance. Securities held-to-maturity are carried at amortized cost, net of any allowance. Investment securities at March 31, 2026 included $1.3 billion of net unsettled purchases that represent non-cash investing activity, and accordingly, are not reflected on the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. The comparable amount at March 31, 2025 was $0.3 billion of net unsettled purchases.
We maintain the allowance for investment securities at levels that we believe to be appropriate as of the balance sheet date to absorb expected credit losses on our portfolio. At both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the allowance for investment securities was $66 million and primarily related to non-agency commercial mortgage-backed securities in the available-for-sale portfolio. See Note 1 Accounting Policies in our 2025 Form 10-K for a discussion of the methodologies used to determine the allowance for investment securities.
At March 31, 2026, AOCI included pre-tax losses of $225 million from derivatives that hedged the purchase of investment securities classified as held-to-maturity. The losses will be accreted to interest income as an adjustment of yield on the securities.
Table 43 presents the gross unrealized losses and fair value of securities available-for-sale that do not have an associated allowance for investment securities at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. These securities are segregated between investments that had been in a continuous unrealized loss position for less than twelve months and twelve months or more, based on the point in time that the fair

value declined below the amortized cost basis. All securities included in the table have been evaluated to determine if a credit loss exists. As part of that assessment, as of March 31, 2026, we concluded that we do not intend to sell and believe we will not be required to sell these securities prior to recovery of the amortized cost basis.

Loan Portfolio
Our loan portfolio consists of two portfolio segments – Commercial and Consumer. Each of these segments comprises multiple loan classes. Classes are characterized by similarities in risk attributes and the manner in which we monitor and assess credit risk.
| Commercial | Consumer | |||||||
• Commercial and industrial | • Residential real estate | |||||||
• Commercial real estate | • Home equity | |||||||
| • Automobile | ||||||||
| • Credit card | ||||||||
| • Other consumer | ||||||||
See Note 1 Accounting Policies for additional information on our loan classes. See Note 1 Accounting Policies in our 2025 Form 10-K for additional information on our loan related policies.
Credit Quality
We closely monitor economic conditions and loan performance trends to manage and evaluate our exposure to credit risk within the loan portfolio based on our defined loan classes. In doing so, we use several credit quality indicators, including, but not limited to, trends in delinquency rates, nonperforming status, analyses of PD and LGD ratings, updated credit scores and originated and updated LTV ratios.
We manage credit risk based on the risk profile of the borrower, repayment sources, underlying collateral and other support given current events, economic conditions and expectations. We refine our practices to address operating environment changes such as inflation levels, industry specific risks, interest rate levels, the level of consumer savings and deposit balances, and structural and secular changes such as those that arose from the pandemic. We offer loan modifications and collection programs to assist our customers and mitigate losses.

Table 47 presents the composition and delinquency status of our loan portfolio at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. Loan delinquencies include government insured or guaranteed loans and loans accounted for under the fair value option.

(a)Amounts in table represent loans held for investment and do not include any associated ALLL.
(b)The accrued interest associated with our loan portfolio totaled $1.4 billion and $1.3 billion at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. These amounts are included in Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
(c)Past due loan amounts include government insured or guaranteed residential real estate loans totaling $0.3 billion at both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
(d)Consumer loans accounted for under the fair value option for which we do not expect to collect substantially all principal and interest are subject to nonaccrual accounting and classification upon meeting any of our nonaccrual policy criteria. Given that these loans are not accounted for at amortized cost, they have been excluded from the nonperforming loan population.
(e)Includes unearned income, unamortized deferred fees and costs on originated loans and premiums or discounts on purchased loans totaling $1.7 billion and $1.1 billion at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
(f)Collateral dependent loans totaled $1.5 billion at both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
At March 31, 2026, we pledged unpaid principal balances in the amounts of $58.2 billion of commercial and consumer loans to the FRB and $89.4 billion of secured real estate and other loans to the FHLB as collateral for the ability to borrow, if necessary. The comparable amounts at December 31, 2025 were $55.0 billion and $80.6 billion, respectively.
Nonperforming Assets
Nonperforming assets include nonperforming loans and leases, OREO, foreclosed and other assets. Nonperforming loans are those loans accounted for at amortized cost whose credit quality has deteriorated to the extent that full collection of contractual principal and interest is not probable. Interest income is generally not recognized on these loans. Loans accounted for under the fair value option are reported as performing loans; however, when nonaccrual criteria is met, interest income is not recognized on these loans. Additionally, certain government insured or guaranteed loans for which we expect to collect substantially all principal and interest are not reported as nonperforming loans and continue to accrue interest. See Note 1 Accounting Policies in our 2025 Form 10-K for additional information on our nonperforming loan and lease policies.

We generally consider FDMs to have subsequently defaulted when they become 60 days past due after the most recent date the loan was modified. Commercial loans that were both (i) classified as FDMs, and (ii) subsequently defaulted during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 were $23 million and $44 million, respectively.

Credit card and unsecured lines of credit programs both offer short-term and fully-amortized repayment plans, impacting terms and interest rates. Home equity programs offer a fixed payment plan, establishing a modified monthly payment based primarily on the borrower’s financial situation and the current market environment.
(f)Loans in our Payment Delay category are reported as past due in accordance with their contractual terms. Once contractually modified, these loans are reported as past due in accordance with their restructured terms.
We generally consider FDMs to have subsequently defaulted when they become 60 days past due after the most recent date the loan
was modified. Consumer loans that were both (i) classified as FDMs, and (ii) subsequently defaulted during the three months ended March, 31 2026 and 2025 were $20 million and $27 million, respectively.

NOTE 5 LOAN SALE AND SERVICING ACTIVITIES AND VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES
Loan Sale and Servicing Activities
As more fully described in Note 4 Loan Sale and Servicing Activities and Variable Interest Entities in our 2025 Form 10-K, we have transferred residential and commercial mortgage loans in securitization or sales transactions in which we have continuing involvement. Our continuing involvement in the FNMA, FHLMC and GNMA securitizations, non-agency securitizations, and loan sale transactions generally consists of servicing, repurchasing previously transferred loans or loss share arrangements under certain conditions, and, in limited circumstances, holding of mortgage-backed securities issued by the securitization SPEs.
We earn servicing and other ancillary fees for our role as servicer and, depending on the contractual terms of the servicing arrangement, we can be terminated as servicer with or without cause. At the consummation date of each type of loan transfer where we retain the servicing, we recognize a servicing right at fair value. See Note 6 Goodwill and Mortgage Servicing Rights and Note 12 Fair Value for further discussion of our servicing rights.

(b)Serviced delinquent loans are 90 days or more past due or are in process of foreclosure.
(c)Net charge-offs for Residential mortgages represent credit losses less recoveries distributed and as reported to investors during the period. Net charge-offs for Commercial mortgages represent credit losses less recoveries distributed and as reported by the trustee for commercial mortgage-backed securitizations. Realized losses for agency securitizations are not reflected as we do not manage the underlying real estate upon foreclosure and, as such, do not have access to loss information.
Variable Interest Entities (VIEs)
As discussed in Note 4 Loan Sale and Servicing Activities and Variable Interest Entities included in our 2025 Form 10-K, we are involved with various entities in the normal course of business that are deemed to be VIEs.
The following table provides a summary of non-consolidated VIEs with which we have significant continuing involvement but are not the primary beneficiary. We have excluded certain transactions with non-consolidated VIEs from the balances presented in Table 59 where we have determined that our continuing involvement is insignificant. We do not consider our continuing involvement to be significant when it relates to a VIE where we only invest in securities issued by the VIE and were not involved in the design of the VIE or where no transfers have occurred between us and the VIE. In addition, where we only have lending arrangements in the normal course of business with entities that could be VIEs, we have excluded these transactions with non-consolidated entities from the balances presented in Table 59. These loans are included as part of the asset quality disclosures that we make in Note 4 Loans and Related Allowance for Credit Losses.

NOTE 6 G OODWILL AND MORTGAGE SERVICING RIGHTS
Goodwill
Goodwill increased $2.3 billion during the three months ended March 31, 2026 as a result of the acquisition of FirstBank, and was allocated to our Retail segment. See Note 2 Acquisition Activity for additional information on the acquisition. See also Note 5 Goodwill and Mortgage Servicing Rights in our Form 2025 10-K for more information regarding our goodwill.
Mortgage Servicing Rights
We recognize the right to service mortgage loans for others as an intangible asset when the benefits of servicing are expected to be more than adequate compensation to a servicer for performing the servicing. MSRs are recognized either when purchased or when originated loans are sold with servicing retained. MSRs totaled $3.8 billion at March 31, 2026 and $3.7 billion at December 31, 2025, and consisted of loan servicing contracts for commercial and residential mortgages measured at fair value.
We recognize gains or losses on changes in the fair value of MSRs. MSRs are subject to changes in value from actual or expected prepayment of the underlying loans and defaults, as well as market driven changes in interest rates. We manage this risk by economically hedging the fair value of MSRs with securities, derivative instruments and resale agreements, which are expected to increase (or decrease) in value when the value of MSRs decreases (or increases).
See the Sensitivity Analysis section of this Note 6 for more detail on our fair value measurement of MSRs. See Note 5 Goodwill and Mortgage Servicing Rights and Note 14 Fair Value in our 2025 Form 10-K for more detail on our fair value measurement and our accounting of MSRs.

(a)Represents decrease in MSR value due to passage of time, which includes the impact from regularly scheduled loan principal payments, prepayments and loans that were paid off during the period.
(b)Includes MSR value changes resulting from changes in interest rates and other market-driven conditions.
Sensitivity Analysis
The fair value of commercial and residential MSRs and significant inputs to the valuation models as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 are shown in Tables 61 and 62. The expected and actual rates of mortgage loan prepayments are significant factors driving the fair value. Management uses both internal proprietary models and a third-party model to estimate future commercial mortgage loan prepayments and a third-party model to estimate future residential mortgage loan prepayments. These models have been refined based on current market conditions and management judgment. Future interest rates are another important factor in the valuation of MSRs. Management utilizes market implied forward interest rates to estimate the future direction of mortgage and discount rates. The forward rates utilized are derived from the current yield curve for U.S. dollar interest rate swaps and are consistent with pricing of capital markets instruments. Changes in the shape and slope of the forward curve in future periods may result in volatility in the fair value estimate.
A sensitivity analysis of the hypothetical effect on the fair value of MSRs to adverse changes in key assumptions is presented in Tables 61 and 62. These sensitivities do not include the impact of the related hedging activities. Changes in fair value generally cannot be extrapolated because the relationship of the change in the assumption to the change in fair value may not be linear. Also, the effect of a variation in a particular assumption on the fair value of the MSRs is calculated independently without changing any other assumption. Changes in one factor may result in changes in another (e.g., changes in mortgage interest rates, which drive changes in prepayment rate estimates, could result in changes in the interest rate spread), which could either magnify or counteract the sensitivities.
The following tables set forth the fair value of commercial and residential MSRs and the sensitivity analysis of the hypothetical effect on the fair value of MSRs to immediate adverse changes of 10% and 20% in those assumptions.

(a)Net outstanding standby letters of credit that support remarketing programs were $3.4 billion and $3.2 billion at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
(b)We enter into standby bond purchase agreements to support municipal bond obligations.
(c)Includes $2.7 billion and $3.0 billion related to investments that qualify for PAM at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. For additional information on PAM, refer to Note 1 Accounting Policies in our 2025 Form 10-K.
Commitments to Extend Credit
Commitments to extend credit, or net unfunded loan commitments, represent arrangements to lend funds or provide liquidity subject to specified contractual conditions. These commitments generally have fixed expiration dates, may require payment of a fee and generally contain termination clauses in the event the customer’s credit quality deteriorates.
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q 71
Net Outstanding Standby Letters of Credit
We issue standby letters of credit and share in the risk of standby letters of credit issued by other financial institutions, in each case to support obligations of our customers to third parties, such as insurance requirements and the facilitation of transactions involving capital markets product execution. Approximately 98 % of our net outstanding standby letters of credit were rated as Pass at March 31, 2026, with the remainder rated as Criticized. An internal credit rating of Pass indicates the expected risk of loss is currently low, while a rating of Criticized indicates a higher degree of risk.
If the customer fails to meet its financial or performance obligation to the third party under the terms of the contract or there is a need to support a remarketing program, then upon a draw by a beneficiary, subject to the terms of the letter of credit, we would be obligated to make payment to them. The standby letters of credit outstanding on March 31, 2026 had terms ranging from less than one year to 11 years.
As of March 31, 2026, assets of $1.1 billion secured certain specifically identified standby letters of credit. In addition, a portion of the remaining standby letters of credit issued on behalf of specific customers is secured by collateral or guarantees that secure the customers’ other obligations to us. The carrying amount of the liability for our obligations related to standby letters of credit and participations in standby letters of credit was $0.2 billion at March 31, 2026 and is primarily included in Other liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheet.

NOTE 12 F AIR VALUE
Fair Value Measurement
We measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or the price that would be paid to transfer a liability on the measurement date and is determined using an exit price in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. The fair value hierarchy established by GAAP requires us to maximize the use of observable inputs when measuring fair value. For more information regarding the fair value hierarchy, see Note 14 Fair Value in our 2025 Form 10-K. Additionally, for more information regarding the fair value of assets and liabilities from our FirstBank acquisition, see Note 2 Acquisition Activity.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
For more information on the valuation methodologies used to measure assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis, see Note 14 Fair Value in our 2025 Form 10-K. The following table summarizes our assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, including instruments for which we have elected the fair value option.

(c)The amount of the total gains or losses for the period included in earnings that is attributable to the change in unrealized gains or losses related to those assets and liabilities held at the end of the reporting period.
(d)Residential mortgage loan transfers out of Level 3 are primarily driven by residential mortgage loans transferring to OREO as well as reclassification of mortgage loans held for sale to held for investment.
(e)Net gains (losses) realized and unrealized included in earnings related to Level 3 assets and liabilities included amortization and accretion. The amortization and accretion amounts are included in Interest income on the Consolidated Income Statement and the remaining net gains (losses) realized and unrealized are included in Noninterest income on the Consolidated Income Statement.
(f)Net unrealized gains (losses) related to assets and liabilities held at the end of the reporting period are included in Noninterest income on the Consolidated Income Statement.
An instrument’s categorization within the hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Changes from one quarter to the next related to the observability of inputs to a fair value measurement may result in a reclassification (transfer) of assets or liabilities between hierarchy levels.

Financial Assets Accounted for at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
We may be required to measure certain financial assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These adjustments to fair value usually result from the application of lower of amortized cost or fair value accounting or write-downs of individual assets due to impairment and are included in Table 75. For more information regarding the valuation methodologies of our financial assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, see Note 14 Fair Value in our 2025 Form 10-K.

NOTE 13 F INANCIAL DERIVATIVES
We use a variety of financial derivatives to both mitigate exposure to market (primarily interest rate) and credit risks inherent in our business activities, as well as to facilitate customer risk management activities. We manage these risks as part of our overall asset and liability management process and through our credit policies and procedures. Derivatives represent contracts between parties that usually require little or no initial net investment and result in one party delivering cash or another type of asset to the other party based on a notional amount and an underlying as specified in the contract.
Derivative transactions are often measured in terms of notional amount, but this amount is generally not exchanged and it is not recorded on the balance sheet. The notional amount is the basis to which the underlying is applied to determine required payments under the derivative contract. The underlying is a referenced interest rate, security price, credit spread or other index. Residential and commercial real estate loan commitments associated with loans to be sold also qualify as derivative instruments.
For more information regarding derivatives, see Note 1 Accounting Policies and Note 15 Financial Derivatives in our 2025 Form 10-K.

The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q 83
Derivatives Designated as Hedging Instruments
Certain derivatives used to manage interest rate and foreign exchange risk as part of our asset and liability risk management activities are designated as accounting hedges. Derivatives hedging the risks associated with changes in the fair value of assets or liabilities are considered fair value hedges, derivatives hedging the variability of expected future cash flows are considered cash flow hedges and derivatives hedging a net investment in a foreign subsidiary are considered net investment hedges. Designating derivatives as accounting hedges allows for gains and losses on those derivatives to be recognized in the same period and in the same income statement line item as the earnings impact of the hedged items.
Fair Value Hedges
We enter into receive-fixed, pay-variable interest rate swaps to hedge changes in the fair value of outstanding fixed-rate funding caused by fluctuations in market interest rates. We also enter into pay-fixed, receive-variable interest rate swaps and zero-coupon swaps to hedge changes in the fair value of fixed rate and zero-coupon investment securities caused by fluctuations in market interest rates. Gains and losses on the interest rate swaps designated in these hedge relationships, along with the offsetting gains and losses on the hedged items attributable to the hedged risk, are recognized in current earnings within the same income statement line item.
Cash Flow Hedges
We enter into receive-fixed, pay-variable interest rate swaps and interest rate caps and floors to modify the interest rate characteristics of designated commercial loans from variable to fixed in order to reduce the impact of changes in future cash flows due to market interest rate changes. We also periodically enter into forward purchase and sale contracts to hedge the variability of the consideration that will be paid or received related to the purchase or sale of investment securities. The forecasted purchase or sale is consummated upon gross settlement of the forward contract itself. For these cash flow hedges, gains and losses on the hedging instruments are recorded in AOCI and are then reclassified into earnings in the same period the hedged cash flows affect earnings and within the same income statement line as the hedged cash flows.
In the 12 months that follow March 31, 2026, we expect to reclassify net derivative losses of $71 million pre-tax, or $55 million after-tax, from AOCI to interest income for these cash flow hedge strategies. This reclassified amount could differ from amounts actually recognized due to changes in interest rates, hedge de-designations and the addition of other hedges subsequent to March 31, 2026. As of March 31, 2026, the maximum length of time over which forecasted transactions are hedged is ten years .

Net Investment Hedges
We enter into foreign currency forward contracts to hedge non-U.S. dollar net investments in foreign subsidiaries against adverse changes in foreign exchange rates. We assess whether the hedging relationship is highly effective in achieving offsetting changes in the value of the hedge and hedged item by qualitatively verifying that the critical terms of the hedge and hedged item match at the inception of the hedging relationship and on an ongoing basis. Net investment hedge derivatives are classified as foreign exchange contracts. There were no components of derivative gains or losses excluded from the assessment of the hedge effectiveness for the periods presented. Net gains (losses) on net investment hedge derivatives recognized in OCI were $27 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to $(41 ) million for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Offsetting and Counterparty Credit Risk
We generally utilize a net presentation on the Consolidated Balance Sheet for those derivative financial instruments entered into with counterparties under legally enforceable master netting agreements. The master netting agreements reduce credit risk by permitting the closeout netting of all outstanding derivative instruments under the master netting agreement with the same counterparty upon the occurrence of an event of default. The master netting agreement also may require the exchange of cash or marketable securities to collateralize either party’s net position. For additional information on derivative offsetting and counterparty credit risk, see Note 15 Financial Derivatives in our 2025 Form 10-K.
Table 83 shows the impact legally enforceable master netting agreements had on our derivative assets and derivative liabilities at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The table includes cash collateral held or pledged under legally enforceable master netting agreements. The table also includes the fair value of any securities collateral held or pledged under legally enforceable master netting agreements. Cash and securities collateral amounts are included in the table only to the extent of the related net derivative fair values.

In addition to using master netting agreements and other collateral agreements to reduce credit risk associated with derivative instruments, we also seek to manage credit risk by evaluating credit ratings of counterparties and by using internal credit analysis, limits and monitoring procedures.
At March 31, 2026, cash and debt securities (primarily agency mortgage-backed securities) totaling $2.0 billion were pledged to us under master netting agreements and other collateral agreements to collateralize net derivative assets due from counterparties and to meet initial margin requirements, and we pledged cash and debt securities (primarily agency mortgage-backed securities) totaling $2.1 billion under these agreements to collateralize net derivative liabilities owed to counterparties and to meet initial margin requirements. These totals may differ from the amounts presented in the preceding offsetting table because these totals may include collateral exchanged under an agreement that does not qualify as a master netting agreement or because the total amount of collateral pledged exceeds the net derivative fair values with the counterparty as of the balance sheet date due to timing or other factors, such as initial margin. To the extent not netted against the derivative fair values under a master netting agreement, the receivable for cash pledged is included in Other assets and the obligation for cash held is included in Other liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheet. Securities pledged to us by counterparties are not recognized on our balance sheet. Likewise, securities we have pledged to counterparties remain on our balance sheet.

NOTE 14 L EGAL PROCEEDINGS
We establish accruals for legal proceedings, including litigation and regulatory and governmental investigations and inquiries, when information related to the loss contingencies represented by those matters indicates both that a loss is probable and that the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. Any such accruals are adjusted thereafter as appropriate to reflect changed circumstances. When we are able to do so, we also determine estimates of reasonably possible losses or ranges of reasonably possible losses, whether in excess of any related accrued liability or where there is no accrued liability, for disclosed legal proceedings (“Disclosed Matters,” which are those matters disclosed in this Note 14 as well as those matters disclosed in Note 20 Legal Proceedings in our 2025 Form 10-K (such prior disclosure referred to as “Prior Disclosure”)). For Disclosed Matters where we are able to estimate such possible losses or ranges of possible losses, as of March 31, 2026, we estimate that it is reasonably possible that we could incur losses in excess of related accrued liabilities, if any, in an aggregate amount less than $300 million. The estimates included in this amount are based on our analysis of currently available information and are subject to significant judgment and a variety of assumptions and uncertainties. As new information is obtained we may change our estimates. Due to the inherent subjectivity of the assessments and unpredictability of outcomes of legal proceedings, any amounts accrued or included in this aggregate amount may not represent the ultimate loss to us from the legal proceedings in question. Thus, our exposure and ultimate losses may be higher, and possibly significantly so, than the amounts accrued or this aggregate amount.
As a result of the types of factors described in Note 20 Legal Proceedings in our 2025 Form 10-K, we are unable, at this time, to estimate the losses that are reasonably possible to be incurred or ranges of such losses with respect to some of the Disclosed Matters, and the aggregate estimated amount provided above does not include an estimate for every Disclosed Matter. Therefore, as the estimated aggregate amount disclosed above does not include all of the Disclosed Matters, the amount disclosed above does not represent our maximum reasonably possible loss exposure for all of the Disclosed Matters. The estimated aggregate amount also does not reflect any of our exposure to matters not so disclosed, as discussed below under “Other.”
We include in some of the descriptions of individual Disclosed Matters certain quantitative information related to the plaintiff’s claim against us as alleged in the plaintiff’s pleadings or other public filings or otherwise publicly available information. While information of this type may provide insight into the potential magnitude of a matter, it does not necessarily represent our estimate of reasonably possible loss or our judgment as to any currently appropriate accrual.
Some of our exposure in Disclosed Matters may be offset by applicable insurance coverage. We do not consider the possible availability of insurance coverage in determining the amounts of any accruals (although we would record the amount of related insurance recoveries that are deemed probable up to the amount of the accrual) or in determining any estimates of possible losses or ranges of possible losses.
Interchange Litigation
In two of the opt-out cases in the Southern District of New York, Target Corporation et al., v. Visa Inc., et al., No. 13 Civ. 3477 (AKH) and 7-Eleven Inc. et al., v.

Certain other merchants’ claims are pending in other actions. PNC is not named as a defendant in the cases.

Regulatory and Governmental Inquiries
We are the subject of investigations, audits, examinations and other forms of regulatory and governmental inquiry covering a broad
88 The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q
range of issues in our consumer, mortgage, brokerage, securities and other financial services businesses, as well as other aspects of our operations. In some cases, these inquiries are part of reviews of specified activities at multiple industry participants; in others, they are directed at PNC individually. From time to time, these inquiries have involved and may in the future involve or lead to regulatory enforcement actions and other administrative proceedings. These inquiries have also led to and may in the future lead to civil or criminal judicial proceedings. Some of these inquiries result in remedies including fines, penalties, restitution, or alterations in our business practices, and in additional expenses and collateral costs and other consequences. Such remedies and other consequences typically have not been material to us from a financial standpoint but could be in the future. Even if not financially material, they may result in significant reputational harm or other adverse consequences. Our practice is to cooperate fully with regulatory and governmental investigations, audits and other inquiries.
Other
In addition to the proceedings or other matters described in Prior Disclosure, PNC and persons to whom we may have indemnification obligations, in the normal course of business, are subject to various other pending and threatened legal proceedings in which claims for monetary damages and other relief are asserted. We do not anticipate, at the present time, that the ultimate aggregate liability, if any, arising out of such other legal proceedings will have a material adverse effect on our financial position. However, we cannot now determine whether or not any claims asserted against us or others to whom we may have indemnification obligations, whether in the proceedings or other matters described above or otherwise, will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations in any future reporting period, which will depend on, among other things, the amount of the loss resulting from the claim and the amount of income otherwise reported for the reporting period.
NOTE 15 S EGMENT REPORTING
We have three reportable business segments: Retail Banking, Corporate & Institutional Banking and the Asset Management Group. Our reportable business segments are defined by the nature of products and services, types of customers, methods used to distribute products or provide services and similar financial performance. Results of our reportable business segments are regularly reviewed by the CODM, our Chief Executive Officer. Specifically, the CODM reviews actual and forecasted quarterly financial reporting results, including net income, to assess performance and allocate resources accordingly. However, the CODM may use other metrics on an ad hoc basis as warranted.
The following describes the products and services of each business segment:
Retail Banking provides deposit, lending, brokerage, insurance services, investment management and cash management products and services to consumer and small business customers who are serviced through our coast-to-coast branch network, digital channels, ATMs, or through our phone-based customer contact centers. Deposit products include checking, savings and money market accounts and time deposits. Lending products include residential mortgages, home equity loans and lines of credit, auto loans, credit cards, education loans and personal and small business loans and lines of credit. The residential mortgage loans are directly originated within our branch network and nationwide, and are typically underwritten to agency and/or third-party standards, and either sold, servicing retained or held on our balance sheet. PNC Wealth Management offers brokerage, investment management and cash management products and services which include managed, education, retirement and trust accounts.
Corporate & Institutional Banking provides lending, treasury management, capital markets and advisory products and services to mid-sized and large corporations and government and not-for-profit entities. Lending products include secured and unsecured loans, letters of credit and equipment leases. The Treasury Management business provides corporations with cash and investment management services, receivables and disbursement management services, funds transfer services and access to online/mobile information management and reporting services. Capital markets and advisory includes services and activities primarily related to merger and acquisitions advisory, equity capital markets advisory, asset-backed financing, loan syndication, securities underwriting and customer-related trading. We also provide commercial loan servicing and technology solutions for the commercial real estate finance industry. Products and services are provided nationally.
Asset Management Group provides private banking for high net worth and ultra high net worth clients and institutional asset management. The Asset Management Group is composed of two operating units:
•PNC Private Bank provides products and services to emerging affluent, high net worth and ultra high net worth individuals and their families including investment and retirement planning, customized investment management, credit and cash management solutions, trust management and administration. In addition, multi-generational family planning services are also provided to ultra high net worth individuals and their families, which include estate, financial, tax, fiduciary and customized performance reporting.
•Institutional Asset Management provides outsourced chief investment officer, custody, cash and fixed income client solutions and retirement plan fiduciary investment services to institutional clients, including corporations, healthcare systems, insurance companies, municipalities and non-profits.
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q 89
Basis of Presentation
Results of individual businesses are presented based on our internal management reporting practices. There is no comprehensive, authoritative body of guidance for management accounting equivalent to GAAP; therefore, the financial results of our individual businesses are not necessarily comparable with similar information for any other company. We periodically refine our internal methodologies as management reporting practices are enhanced. To the extent significant and practicable, retrospective application of new methodologies is made to prior period reportable business segment results and disclosures to create comparability with the current period.
Funds Transfer Pricing
Net interest income in business segment results reflects our internal FTP methodology, which is designed to consider interest rate and liquidity risks. Under our methodology, assets receive a funding charge while liabilities and capital receive a funding credit based on market interest rates, product characteristics and other factors.
Our FTP framework considers the application of funding curves and methodologies consistently across the balance sheet. A residual gain or loss from FTP operations is not allocated to our reportable business segments. This residual gain or loss is reviewed by management quarterly, in accordance with the interagency guidance of the FDIC, Federal Reserve and OCC.
Segment Allocations
Financial results are presented, to the extent practicable, as if each business operated on a standalone basis, and includes expense allocations for corporate overhead services used by the business segments.
Certain costs are not allocated to our reportable business segments because they (i) are transitory or highly irregular in nature, (ii) exist solely to support corporate activities unrelated to business segment operations, or (iii) reflect residual costs for an exited business.
We have allocated the ALLL and the allowance for unfunded lending related commitments based on the loan exposures within each business segment’s portfolio.
Results of our reportable business segments for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 are as follows:

NOTE 16 F EE-BASED REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

The exchange period is set to close on or about May 8, 2026. PNC intends to fully participate in the exchange.

CORPORATE INFORMATION
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc.
Internet Information
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc.’s financial reports and information about its products and services are available on the internet at www.pnc.com. We provide information for investors on our corporate website under “About – Investor Relations.” We use our account with X, @pncnews, as an additional way of disseminating to the public information that may be relevant to investors.
We generally post the following under “About – Investor Relations” shortly before or promptly following its first use or release: financially-related press releases, including earnings releases and supplemental financial information, various SEC filings, including annual, quarterly and current reports and proxy statements, presentation materials associated with earnings and other investor conference calls or events, and access to live and recorded audio from earnings and other investor conference calls or events. In some cases, we may post the presentation materials for other investor conference calls or events several days prior to the call or event. For earnings and other conference calls or events, we generally include in our posted materials a cautionary statement regarding forward-looking and non-GAAP financial information and we provide GAAP reconciliations when we include non-GAAP financial information. Such GAAP reconciliations may be in materials for the applicable presentation, in materials for prior presentations or in our annual, quarterly or current reports.
When warranted, we will also use our website to expedite public access to time-critical information regarding PNC instead of using a press release or a filing with the SEC for first disclosure of the information. In some circumstances, the information may be relevant to investors but directed at customers, in which case it may be accessed directly through the home page rather than “About – Investor Relations.”
We are required to provide additional public disclosure regarding estimated income, losses and pro forma regulatory capital ratios under supervisory and PNC-developed hypothetical severely adverse economic scenarios, as well as information concerning our capital stress testing processes, pursuant to the stress testing regulations adopted by the Federal Reserve and the OCC. We are also required to make certain additional regulatory capital-related public disclosures about our capital structure, risk exposures, risk assessment processes, risk-weighted assets and overall capital adequacy, including market risk-related disclosures, under the regulatory capital rules adopted by the Federal banking agencies. Similarly, the Federal Reserve’s rules require quantitative and qualitative disclosures about our LCR and NSFR. Under these regulations, we may satisfy these requirements through postings on our website, and, subject to limited exceptions, we have done so and expect to continue to do so without also providing disclosure of this information through filings with the SEC.
Other information posted on our corporate website that may not be available in our filings with the SEC includes information relating to our corporate governance and annual communications from our chairman to shareholders.
Where we have included internet addresses in this Report, such as our internet address and the internet address of the SEC, we have included those internet addresses as inactive textual references only. Except as specifically incorporated by reference into this Report, information on those websites is not part hereof.

Dividend Policy
Holders of PNC common stock are entitled to receive dividends when declared by our Board of Directors out of funds legally available for this purpose.

have been paid or declared and set apart for payment. The Board of Directors currently intends to continue the policy of paying quarterly cash dividends.

The amount of our dividend is also currently subject to the results of the supervisory assessment of capital adequacy and capital planning processes undertaken by the Federal Reserve as part of the CCAR process, which includes setting PNC’s SCB, as described in the Capital Management portion of the Risk Management section of this Report and in the Supervision and Regulation section in Item 1 of our 2025 Form 10-K.
