Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and other information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as well as with M&T's 2025 Annual Report. Information regarding the Company's business, its supervision and regulation and potential risks and uncertainties that may affect the Company's business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations are also included in the 2025 Annual Report.
In conjunction with the implementation of a new general ledger platform during the second quarter of 2026, the Company modified its methodology for calculating annualized taxable-equivalent rates for certain earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, including certain average deposit balances. Previously reported amounts have been adjusted to conform to the current presentation.

A summary of financial results for the Company is provided below.

__________________________________________________________________________________
*(a)*Net interest income data are presented on a taxable-equivalent basis which is a non-GAAP measure. The taxable-equivalent adjustment represents additional income taxes that would be due if all interest income were subject to income taxes. This adjustment, which is related to interest received on qualified municipal securities, industrial revenue financings and preferred equity securities, is based on the statutory federal income tax rate.
Effective January 1, 2026, the Company elected to prospectively measure its residential mortgage loan servicing right assets at fair value with changes in fair value reflected in mortgage banking revenues. As a result, amortization associated with residential mortgage loan servicing right assets previously recognized in other costs of operations is no longer recorded. Instead, beginning in 2026, fair value changes in the mortgage loan servicing right assets, inclusive of the realization of expected net servicing revenues over time, are included in mortgage banking revenues. On December 31, 2025, the Company began economically hedging the risk of fair value changes in these assets through the use of various interest rate and other derivative contracts, for which changes in fair value are also reflected in mortgage banking revenues. As a result of the Company's election on January 1, 2026 to prospectively measure residential mortgage loan servicing right assets at fair value, the Company recorded an increase in capitalized servicing assets included in accrued interest and other assets of $263 million and a corresponding after-tax increase to retained earnings of $197 million, representing an 8 basis-point increase to the CET1 capital ratio on the election date.
- 46 -
The increase in net income in the recent quarter as compared with the first quarter of 2026 resulted from the following:
-
Net interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis increased $41 million reflecting an additional calendar day in the recent quarter, higher interest income on nonaccrual loans and growth in average earning assets. The Company's net interest margin was unchanged.
-
The provision for credit losses decreased $20 million reflecting a decrease in the level of criticized loans in the recent quarter and a provision for unfunded credit commitments in the first quarter of 2026, partially offset by loan growth in the second quarter of 2026.
-
Noninterest income increased $51 million resulting from a higher distribution from M&T's investment in BLG in the recent quarter and increases in trust income and revenues from interest rate swap agreements entered into for commercial customers.
-
Noninterest expense declined $89 million reflecting seasonal salaries and employee benefits expense in the first quarter of 2026.
The increase in net income in the six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared with the same 2025 period reflected the following:
- Net interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis increased $138 million reflecting higher average earning assets and a 6 basis-point expansion of the net interest margin as reductions in deposit and borrowing costs o

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Refer to Part I, Item 2, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," under the captions "Liquidity Risk," "Market Risk and Interest Rate Sensitivity" and "Capital."
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon an evaluation carried out as of the end of the period covered by this report under the supervision and with the participation of M&T's management, including its Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of M&T’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act rule 13a-15(e)), René F. Jones, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, and Daryl N. Bible, Senior Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that M&T’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2026.
(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting. M&T regularly assesses and enhances its internal control over financial reporting. During the second quarter of 2026, the Company implemented a new general ledger platform which supports various operational, accounting and reporting activities. In conjunction therewith, certain of the Company's processes and internal controls over financial reporting have been appropriately modified to reflect changes in key business applications and financial processes resulting from this implementation. There were no other changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
