Second Quarter 2024 Significant Items
In the second quarter of 2024, PNC participated in the Visa exchange program, allowing PNC to convert its Visa Class B-1 common
shares into approximately equal amounts of Visa Class B-2 common shares and Visa Class C common shares. This conversion event
resulted in a gain of $754 million related to the Visa Class C common shares received. PNC retained the Visa Class B-2 common
shares. The second quarter of 2024 also included Visa Class B-2 derivative fair value adjustments of negative $116 million and a $120
million expense related to a PNC Foundation contribution. During the second quarter, PNC also repositioned the investment securities
portfolio, selling low-yielding investment securities for net proceeds of $3.8 billion, resulting in a loss of $497 million. PNC
redeployed the full proceeds from the sale into higher-yielding investment securities. The combined impact of all of these significant
items on pre-tax noninterest income and pre-tax noninterest expense in the second quarter of 2024 was $141 million and $120 million,
respectively.
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q 1
Pending Acquisition of FirstBank Holding Company
On September 8, 2025, PNC announced a definitive agreement to acquire FirstBank Holding Company, including its banking subsidiary FirstBank, headquartered in Lakewood, CO for implied consideration of $4.1 billion. FirstBank operates 95 branches, with a leading position in Colorado and a substantial presence in Arizona. As of June 30, 2025, FirstBank had $26.8 billion in assets. The combination will more than triple PNC’s network in Colorado to 120 branches and increase PNC’s presence in Arizona to more than 70 branches. The transaction is expected to close in early 2026, subject to receipt of all required approvals and other customary closing conditions.

Income Statement Highlights
Net income of $1.8 billion, or $4.35 per diluted common share, for the third quarter of 2025 increased $179 million, or 11%, compared to $1.6 billion, or $3.85 per diluted common share, for the second quarter of 2025, due to higher noninterest and net interest income and a lower provision for credit losses, partially offset by increased noninterest expense.
-
For the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025:
-
Total revenue of $5.9 billion increased $254 million, or 4%.
-
Net interest income of $3.6 billion increased $93 million, or 3%, driven by the continued benefit of fixed rate asset repricing, loan growth and one additional day in the quarter.
-
Net interest margin decreased 1 basis point to 2.79%, driven by average commercial deposit growth of 5%.
-
Noninterest income of $2.3 billion increased $161 million, or 8%, primarily driven by higher capital markets and advisory fees. Other noninterest income in the third quarter of 2025 included negative $35 million of Visa derivative fair value adjustments, primarily related to litigation escrow funding, compared to positive $2 million in the second quarter of 2025.
-
Provision for credit losses of $167 million in the third quarter of 2025 was driven by a net decrease in the ACL, primarily due to an improved outlook for our commercial real estate portfolio and portfolio activity, including net loan charge-offs. The second quarter of 2025 included a provision for credit losses of $254 million.
-
Noninterest expense increased $78 million, or 2%, reflecting higher personnel costs as a result of increased business activity and increased equipment expenses due to continued investments in technology and branches, partially offset by lower other noninterest expense. Other noninterest expense in the third quarter of 2025 included a $48 million accrual release related to the FDIC’s special assessment.
Net income of $5.0 billion, or $11.72 per diluted common share, for the first nine months of 2025 increased $638 million, or 15%, compared to $4.3 billion, or $9.98 per diluted common share, for the same period in 2024 primarily due to higher net interest and noninterest income, partially offset by increased noninterest expense.
-
For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024:
-
Total revenue increased $1.0 billion, or 7%, to $17.0 billion.
-
Net interest income increased $703 million, or 7%, driven by lower funding costs, the continued benefit of fixed rate asset repricing and loan growth.
-
Net interest margin increased 19 basis points.
-
Noninterest income increased $337 million, or 6%, primarily due to higher capital markets and advisory fees, card and cash management revenue and asset management and brokerage income.
-
Provision for credit losses of $640 million for the first nine months of 2025 was driven by a net increase in the ACL due to changes in macroeconomic scenarios and portfolio activity, including loan growth and net loan charge-offs. The first nine months of 2024 included a provision for credit losses of $633 million.
-
Noninterest expense increased $213 million, or 2%, compared to the first nine months of 2024, reflecting higher personnel costs as a result of increased business activity and increased equipment expenses due to continued
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q 3
investments in technology and branches, partially offset by lower other noninterest expense. Other noninterest expense for the first nine months of 2024 included $120 million of significant items in the second quarter of 2024 and a $130 million expense in the first quarter of 2024 related to the FDIC’s special assessment.
For additional detail, see the Consolidated Income Statement Review section of this Financial Review.
Balance Sheet Highlights
Our balance sheet was well positioned at September 30, 2025. In comparison to December 31, 2024:
-
Total assets of $568.8 billion increased primarily due to higher loan balances, partially offset by lower balances held with the FRB.
-
Total loans of $326.6 billion increased $10.1 billion, or 3%.
-
Total commercial loans increased $11.2 billion, or 5%, to $227.4 billion, primarily due to growth in the commercial and industrial portfolio, reflecting new production and higher utilization of loan commitments, partially offset by lower commercial real estate loans.
-
Total consumer loans decreased $1.1 billion, or 1%, to $99.2 billion, primarily due to lower residential real estate loans as paydowns outpaced originations, partially offset by growth in the auto loan portfolio.
-
Investment securities increased $1.8 billion, or 1%, to $141.5 billion, due to increased net purchase activity, primarily of agency mortgage-backed securities and a decline in unrealized losses on the available-for-sale portfolio.
-
Interest-earning deposits with banks, primarily with the FRB, decreased $6.0 billion, or 15%, to $33.3 billion, primarily driven by higher loans and securities balances, partially offset by increased deposit balances.
-
Total deposits increased $6.0 billion, or 1%, as higher interest-bearing deposits were partially offset by lower noninterest-bearing deposits.
-
Borrowed funds increased $0.7 billion, or 1%, to $62.3 billion, primarily due to higher senior debt outstanding, partially offset by lower FHLB advances.
For additional detail, see the Consolidated Balance Sheet Review section of this Financial Review.
Credit Quality Highlights
The third quarter of 2025 reflected strong credit quality performance.
-
At September 30, 2025 compared to December 31, 2024:
-
Overall loan delinquencies of $1.2 billion decreased $149 million, or 11%, due to lower consumer and commercial loan delinquencies.
-
The ACL related to loans, which consists of the ALLL and the allowance for unfunded lending related commitments, totaled $5.3 billion at September 30, 2025, compared to $5.2 billion at December 31, 2024. The increase in reserves was driven primarily by changes in macroeconomic scenarios. ACL to total loans was 1.61% at September 30, 2025, compared to 1.64% at December 31, 2024.
-
Nonperforming assets of $2.3 billion decreased $58 million, or 2%, primarily driven by lower commercial real estate nonperforming loans.
-
Net loan charge-offs of $179 million, or 0.22% of average loans, in the third quarter of 2025 decreased $19 million compared to the second quarter of 2025, reflecting lower commercial real estate net loan charge-offs.
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 $53.2 billion at September 30, 2025 increased $4.6 billion compared to December 31, 2024, due to the benefit of net income and an improvement in AOCI, partially offset by common dividends paid and common share repurchases.
-
In the third quarter of 2025, PNC returned $1.0 billion of capital to shareholders, including $0.7 billion of dividends on common shares and $0.3 billion of common share repurchases.
-
On October 2, 2025, the PNC Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend on common stock of $1.70 per share to be paid on November 5, 2025 to shareholders of record at the close of business October 14, 2025.
-
Our CET1 ratio was 10.7% at September 30, 2025 and 10.5% at December 31, 2024.
PNC’s ability to take certain capital actions, including returning capital to shareholders, is subject to PNC meeting or exceeding an SCB established by the Federal Reserve Board in connection with the Federal Reserve Board’s CCAR process. Based on the results of the Federal Reserve's 2025 annual stress test, PNC’s SCB for the four-quarter period beginning October 1, 2025 is the regulatory

minimum of 2.5%. 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 2024 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, but slower economic growth in 2025 and 2026 than in 2024. The government shutdown will weaken growth, but the economy should regain that growth once the shutdown ends. Tariffs are a drag on consumer spending and business investment, while AI-related capex and wealth effects have been key supports to growth. Consumer spending growth is slowing to a pace more consistent with household income growth, and government’s contribution to economic growth will be smaller.
-
The baseline forecast anticipates real GDP growth slowing to below 2% in both 2025 and 2026, accompanied by a modest increase in the unemployment rate, which is expected to peak above 4.5% in mid-2026. Tariffs remain a risk to the outlook, and a reversal in sentiment around AI would be a drag. Additionally, a prolonged government shutdown has emerged as a downside risk.
-
The baseline forecast is for two consecutive federal funds rate cuts of 25 basis points each at the next two FOMC meetings, ending in late-January 2026 and resulting in a federal funds rate in the range of 3.25% to 3.50%. However, there are two-sided risks to this outlook: (1) if inflation re-accelerates or proves more persistent than expected, the Federal Reserve may cut less or (2) if growth falters or recession emerges, easing could be deeper and more prolonged.
Consistent with the forward guidance we provided on October 15, 2025, for the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to the third quarter of 2025, we expect:
-
Average loans to be stable to up 1%,
-
Net interest income to be up approximately 1.5%,
-
Fee income to be down approximately 3%,
-
Other noninterest income to be $150 million to $200 million,
-
Total revenue to be stable to down 1%,
-
Noninterest expense to be up 1% to 2%, and
-
Net loan charge-offs to be $200 million to $225 million.
Other noninterest income and total revenue guidance does not forecast net securities gains or losses or Visa activity.
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 2024 Form 10-K for other factors that could cause future events to differ, perhaps materially, from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements.
C****ONSOLIDATED I****NCOME S****TATEMENT R****EVIEW
Our Consolidated Income Statement is presented in Item 1 of this Report.
Net income of $1.8 billion, or $4.35 per diluted common share, for the third quarter of 2025 increased $179 million, or 11%, compared to $1.6 billion, or $3.85 per diluted common share, for the second quarter of 2025, due to higher noninterest and net interest income and a lower provision for credit losses, partially offset by increased noninterest expense. Net income of $5.0 billion, or $11.72 per diluted common share, for the first nine months of 2025 increased $638 million, or 15%, compared to $4.3 billion, or $9.98 per diluted common share, for the same period in 2024, primarily due to higher net interest and noninterest income, partially offset by increased noninterest expense.

(a)Interest income 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 35 Reconciliation of Taxable-Equivalent Net Interest Income (non-GAAP).
(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 34 Average Consolidated Balance Sheet and Net Interest Analysis for additional information.
Net interest income increased $93 million, or 3%, compared to the second quarter of 2025, driven by the continued benefit of fixed rate asset repricing, loan growth and one additional day in the quarter. Net interest income increased $703 million, or 7%, compared to the first nine months of 2024, driven by lower funding costs, the continued benefit of fixed rate asset repricing and loan growth. Net interest margin decreased 1 basis point compared to the second quarter of 2025 driven by average commercial deposit growth of 5%.
6 The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q
In the year-to-date comparison, net interest margin increased 19 basis points due to the benefit of lower funding costs and the continued repricing of fixed rate assets.
Average investment securities increased $2.5 billion, or 2%, compared to the second quarter of 2025, reflecting net purchase activity, primarily of agency residential mortgage-backed securities. Average investment securities increased $3.2 billion, or 2%, compared to the first nine months of 2024, driven by net purchase activity of U.S. Treasury and government agency securities and agency residential mortgage-backed securities. Average investment securities represented 28% of average interest-earning assets for both the third and second quarters of 2025, and 28% for the first nine months of 2025 compared to 27% for the first nine months of 2024.
Average loans increased $3.2 billion, or 1%, compared to the second quarter of 2025, and $1.8 billion, or 1%, compared to the first nine months of 2024. In both comparisons, the increase is primarily due to growth in commercial and industrial loans, partially offset by a decline in commercial real estate loans. Average loans represented 63% of average interest-earning assets for the third quarter of 2025, compared to 64% for the second quarter of 2025, and 63% for the first nine months of 2025 compared to 62% for the first nine months of 2024.
Average interest-earning deposits with banks increased $3.4 billion, or 11%, compared to the second quarter of 2025, primarily driven by commercial deposit growth. Compared to the first nine months of 2024, average interest-earning deposits with banks decreased $11.1 billion, or 25%, primarily due to lower borrowed funds outstanding.
Average interest-bearing deposits increased $9.2 billion, or 3%, compared to the second quarter of 2025, reflecting higher commercial deposits. Compared to the first nine months of 2024, average interest-bearing deposits increased $9.6 billion, or 3%, as higher commercial and consumer deposits were partially offset by lower brokered time deposits. In total, average interest-bearing deposits represented 84% of average interest-bearing liabilities for the third quarter of 2025, compared to 83% for the second quarter of 2025, and 84% for the first nine months of 2025 compared to 81% for the first nine months of 2024.
Average borrowed funds increased $1.0 billion, or 2%, compared to the second quarter of 2025, and included higher senior debt outstanding, partially offset by lower FHLB advances. Average borrowed funds decreased $11.0 billion, or 14%, in the year-to-date comparison, primarily driven by lower FHLB advances, partially offset by higher senior debt outstanding.

*-Not meaningful
Noninterest income as a percentage of total revenue was 38% for the third quarter of 2025 compared to 37% for the second quarter of 2025, and 37% for the first nine months of 2025 compared to 38% for the same period in 2024.
Asset management and brokerage fees increased compared to the second quarter of 2025 and the first nine months of 2024. In both comparisons, the increase was driven by higher average equity markets. PNC’s discretionary client assets under management of $228 billion at September 30, 2025 increased compared to $217 billion at June 30, 2025, and $214 billion at September 30, 2024. In both comparisons, the increase included the impact from higher spot equity markets and positive net flows.
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q 7
Capital markets and advisory fees increased compared to the second quarter of 2025, driven by an increase in merger and acquisition advisory activity, higher underwriting fees and increased loan syndication revenue. The increase in the year-to-date comparison was primarily due to increased trading revenue and higher merger and acquisition advisory activity.
Card and cash management revenue was stable compared to the second quarter of 2025. The increase compared to the first nine months of 2024 was primarily due to higher treasury management product revenue.
Lending and deposit services increased in both the quarterly and year-to-date comparisons, primarily due to increased customer activity. In the year-to-date comparison, the increase was also driven by growth in consumer checking accounts.
Residential and commercial mortgage increased compared to the second quarter of 2025, driven by higher mortgage servicing rights valuation, net of economic hedge, and increased residential mortgage production revenue. The decrease compared to the first nine months of 2024 was primarily due to lower residential mortgage revenue, partially offset by higher commercial mortgage revenue.
Other noninterest income decreased compared to the second quarter of 2025, reflecting negative Visa derivative adjustments, partially offset by higher private equity revenue. Visa derivative adjustments were negative $35 million in the third quarter of 2025, primarily related to litigation escrow funding, and positive $2 million in the second quarter of 2025. Compared to the first nine months of 2024, other noninterest income increased reflecting lower negative Visa derivative adjustments, partially offset by $141 million of significant items recognized in the second quarter of 2024. Visa derivative adjustments were negative $73 million for the first nine months of 2025 compared to negative $251 million for the same period in 2024.

Noninterest expense increased compared to the second quarter of 2025 and the first nine months of 2024. In both comparisons, the increase was driven by higher personnel costs as a result of increased business activity and higher equipment expenses reflecting continued investments in technology and branches, partially offset by lower other noninterest expense. Other noninterest expense in the third quarter of 2025 included a $48 million accrual release related to the FDIC’s special assessment. For the first nine months of 2024, other noninterest expense included $120 million of significant items in the second quarter of 2024 as well as a $130 million expense in the first quarter of 2024 related to the FDIC’s special assessment.
Effective Income Tax Rate
The effective income tax rate was 20.3% for the third quarter of 2025 compared to 18.8% for the second quarter of 2025, and 19.4% for the first nine months of 2025 compared to 18.9% for the same period in 2024.

Provision for credit losses of $167 million in the third quarter of 2025 was driven by a net decrease in the ACL, primarily due to an improved outlook for our commercial real estate portfolio and portfolio activity, including net loan charge-offs. Provision for credit losses of $640 million for the first nine months of 2025 was driven by a net increase in the ACL, primarily due to changes in macroeconomic scenarios and portfolio activity, including loan growth and net loan charge-offs.

-
Total assets increased primarily due to higher loan balances, partially offset by lower balances held with the FRB.
-
Total liabilities increased driven by higher deposit balances.

Consumer loans decreased primarily due to lower residential real estate loans as paydowns outpaced originations, partially offset by growth in the auto loan portfolio.
For additional information regarding our loan portfolio see the Credit Risk Management portion of the Risk Management section in this Financial Review and Note 3 Loans and Related Allowance for Credit Losses.
Investment Securities
Total investment securities of $141.5 billion at September 30, 2025 increased $1.8 billion, or 1%, compared to December 31, 2024, due to increased net purchase activity, primarily of agency mortgage-backed securities, and a decline in unrealized losses on the available-for-sale portfolio.
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.

(b)Amortized cost is presented net of the allowance for investment securities, which totaled $67 million at September 30, 2025 and primarily related to non-agency commercial mortgage-backed securities. The comparable amount at December 31, 2024 was $91 million.
(c)Collateralized primarily by multifamily housing, office buildings, retail properties, lodging properties and industrial properties.
(d)Collateralized primarily by consumer credit products, corporate debt and government guaranteed education loans.
(e)Includes state and municipal securities and corporate bonds.
(f)Includes available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities, which are recorded on our balance sheet at fair value and amortized cost, respectively.
10 The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q
Table 9 presents our investment securities portfolio by amortized cost and fair value. The difference between fair value and amortized cost at September 30, 2025 primarily reflected the impact of higher interest rates 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 2 Investment Securities for additional details regarding the allowance for investment securities.
The duration of investment securities was 3.4 years and 3.5 years at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. We estimate that at September 30, 2025 the effective duration of investment securities was 3.4 years for both an immediate 50 basis points parallel increase and decrease in interest rates. Comparable amounts at December 31, 2024 for the effective duration of investment securities were 3.4 years and 3.5 years, respectively.
Based on expected prepayment speeds, the weighted-average expected maturity of the investment securities portfolio was 5.0 years and 5.3 years at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

(a) Includes $7.3 billion of certain brokered time deposits accounted for under the fair value option at September 30, 2025.
Deposits are considered an attractive source of funding due to their stability and relatively low cost to fund. Compared to December 31, 2024, our funding source composition included higher deposit balances and borrowed funds outstanding. Funding costs decreased compared to the fourth quarter of 2024 as the growth in funding sources was more than offset by the impact of lower funding rates.
Total deposits increased compared to December 31, 2024 as higher interest-bearing deposits were partially offset by lower noninterest-bearing deposits. The increase in interest-bearing deposits was primarily due to higher commercial deposits. The decrease in noninterest-bearing deposits was primarily due to lower commercial balances. Our total brokered deposit balance of $8.1 billion at September 30, 2025 increased compared to $7.3 billion at December 31, 2024, and was significantly below both our internal and regulatory guidelines and limits.
Borrowed funds increased primarily due to higher senior debt outstanding, partially offset by lower FHLB advances.
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q 11
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 2024 Form 10-K for additional information regarding our liquidity and capital activities. See Note 7 Borrowed Funds in this Report and Note 9 Borrowed Funds in our 2024 Form 10-K for additional information related to our borrowings. 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 $59.0 billion at September 30, 2025 increased $4.6 billion, or 8%, compared to December 31, 2024, primarily due to the benefit of net income of $5.0 billion and an improvement in AOCI of $2.5 billion, partially offset by dividends paid of $2.2 billion and $0.8 billion of common share repurchases.
B****USINESS S****EGMENTS R****EVIEW
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 80 in Note 14 Segment Reporting for additional information.
Certain amounts included in this Business Segments Review differ from those amounts shown in Note 14, primarily due to the presentation in this Financial Review of business net interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis.
See Note 14 Segment Reporting for additional information on our business segments, including a description of each business.

Retail Banking earnings for the first nine months of 2025 decreased $176 million compared to the same period in 2024 as a result of lower noninterest income, higher noninterest expense and higher provision for credit losses, partially offset by an increase in net interest income.
Net interest income increased in the comparison primarily due to wider interest rate spreads on the value of deposits.
Noninterest income decreased in the comparison driven by a gain of $754 million from the Visa exchange program that occurred in the second quarter of 2024 and lower residential mortgage fees, partially offset by lower negative Visa derivative adjustments and increased business activity.
Provision for credit losses for the first nine months of 2025 was driven by a net decrease in the ACL, primarily due to updated macroeconomic scenarios and portfolio activity, including net loan charge-offs.
Noninterest expense increased in the comparison primarily due to technology investments and higher marketing spend.
Retail Banking average total loans decreased in the first nine months of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024. Average consumer loans decreased as growth in the automobile portfolio was more than offset by lower residential real estate, as a result of paydowns outpacing new volume, lower credit card loan balances, and continued declines in education loans from runoff in the government guaranteed portfolio. Average commercial loans were stable in the comparison.
Our focus on growing primary customer relationships is at the core of our deposit strategy in Retail, which is based on attracting and retaining stable, low-cost deposits as a key funding source for PNC. We have taken a disciplined approach to pricing, focused on retaining relationship-based balances and executing on targeted deposit growth and retention strategies aimed at more rate-sensitive customers. Our goal with regard to deposits is to optimize balances, economics and long-term customer growth. In the first nine months of 2025, average total deposits increased compared to the same period in 2024, driven by higher consumer time deposits.
Retail Banking continues to enhance the customer experience with refinements to product and service offerings that drive value for consumers and small businesses. As part of our strategic focus on growing customers and meeting their financial needs, we operate and continue to optimize a coast-to-coast network of retail branches, solution centers and ATMs, which are complemented by PNC’s
14 The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q
suite of digital capabilities. In 2024, PNC announced it would be investing approximately $1.5 billion, over the next five years, to open more than 200 new branches in key locations, including Atlanta, Austin, Charlotte, Dallas, Denver, Houston, Miami, Orlando, Phoenix, Raleigh, San Antonio, and Tampa, while completing renovations of 1,400 existing locations across the country during the same time period.

Corporate & Institutional Banking earnings in the first nine months of 2025 increased $568 million compared to the same period in 2024 driven by higher revenue and a lower provision for credit losses, partially offset by higher noninterest expense.
Net interest income increased in the comparison primarily due to wider interest rate spreads on the value of deposits and higher average deposit and loan balances, partially offset by narrower interest rate spreads on the value of loans.
Noninterest income increased in the comparison and reflected growth across all categories.
Provision for credit losses for the first nine months of 2025 was driven by a net increase in the ACL, primarily due to changes in macroeconomic scenarios and portfolio activity, including loan growth and net loan charge-offs.
Noninterest expense increased in the comparison primarily due to continued investments to support business growth and higher variable compensation associated with increased business activity.
Average total loans increased compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024:
- 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, partially offset by lower 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 largely due to 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 a higher average utilization of loan commitments and new production.
-
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 paydowns outpacing new production.
The deposit strategy of Corporate & Institutional Banking is to remain disciplined on pricing and focused on growing and retaining
16 The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q
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 nine months ended September 30, 2024, due to growth in interest-bearing deposits, partially offset by lower noninterest-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 other services, including treasury management, commercial mortgage banking activities and capital markets and advisory products and services, 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, and the remainder is 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, international payment 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 nine months of 2024, treasury management revenue increased due to wider interest rate spreads on the value of deposits, growth in average deposit balances and higher product revenue.
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 increased in the comparison primarily due to higher commercial mortgage loan servicing income and revenue from commercial mortgage loans held for sale.
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 largely driven by higher merger and acquisition advisory fees, asset-backed financing fees and underwriting fees.

18 The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q
The Asset Management Group consists of two primary businesses: PNC Private Bank and Institutional Asset Management.
The PNC Private Bank is focused on being a premier private bank in each of the markets it serves, seeking to deliver high quality banking, trust and investment management services to our emerging affluent, high net worth and ultra-high net worth clients through a broad array of products and services.
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, unions, municipalities and non-profits.
Asset Management Group earnings in the first nine months of 2025 increased $70 million compared to the same period in 2024, primarily driven by higher revenue, partially offset by higher noninterest expense.
Net interest income increased in the comparison primarily due to wider interest rate spreads on the value of deposits.
Noninterest income increased in the comparison driven by higher average equity markets and positive net flows.
Noninterest expense increased in the comparison due to continued investments to support business growth.
Average total loans and deposits were stable compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024.
Discretionary client assets under management increased in the comparison and included the impact from higher spot equity markets and positive net flows.

Credit Risk Management
Credit risk, including our credit risk management processes, is described in further detail in the Credit Risk Management section of our 2024 Form 10-K. The following provides additional information around our loan portfolio, which is our most significant concentration of credit risk.
Loan Portfolio Characteristics and Analysis
Table 15: Details of Loans
In billions
We use several credit quality indicators, as further detailed in Note 3 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 58% and 56% of our total loan portfolio at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, 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 $8.9 billion and $9.2 billion at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. These loans are categorized as commercial and industrial as the credit decisioning is based on the financial condition 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 $30.3 billion as of September 30, 2025 comprised $17.3 billion related to commercial mortgages on income-producing properties, $8.9 billion of intermediate-term financing loans and $4.1 billion of real estate construction project loans. At December 31, 2024, comparable amounts were $33.6 billion, $19.3 billion, $8.6 billion and $5.7 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
Given the fundamental change in office demand, real estate performance related to the office sector continues to be an area of focus. Our office portfolio remains geographically diversified. At September 30, 2025, outstanding loan balances in the office portfolio totaled $5.4 billion, or 1.7% of total loans, while additional unfunded loan commitments totaled $0.1 billion. Within this population, criticized loans totaled 34.9% and nonperforming loans totaled 11.0%. We have established reserves of 11.8% against office loans, which we believe reflect the expected credit losses in this portfolio.
The greatest stress in our office portfolio is observed in multi-tenant office loans, which represents 54.4% of the portfolio. Within the multi-tenant classification, criticized levels were 57.7% while nonperforming loans totaled 19.6% accounting for almost all of the nonperforming office population. For multi-tenant office loans that received appraisals after September 30, 2024, the weighted average LTV for those loans was 87.9% at September 30, 2025. Since October 1, 2024, PNC received updated appraisals for 68.3% of the outstanding balance in the multi-tenant office portfolio. Additionally, commercial real estate charge-offs since the beginning of 2025 have primarily been multi-tenant office loans. Given the higher level of stress, this segment has a proportionally higher reserve rate of 14.5%.
The office portfolio remains an elevated area of focus for portfolio management with internal risk ratings completed quarterly for each asset (except for medical office loans), accelerated reappraisal requirements and elevated approval levels for any credit action. Additionally, active management efforts include ongoing performance assessments as well as the review of available market pricing information, including property valuations. Portfolio updates are distributed to senior management weekly. For information on commercial real estate appraisal procedures, refer to Note 1 Accounting Policies in our 2024 Form 10-K.
Given the ongoing uncertainty in this area, we expect continued stress in the office sector, and a portion of this stress will bear itself out as we work through maturities that will approximate 38.7% through the twelve months ended September 30, 2026. Upon maturity, and where the balance is not paid in full, an extension may be granted because contractual extension terms are met; alternatively, an extension may be granted based on negotiated terms, and a portion of these extensions may involve the curtailment or charge off of principal.

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 $40.2 billion at September 30, 2025, with 46% located in California. Comparable amounts at December 31, 2024 were $41.7 billion and 46%, respectively.
Home Equity
Home equity loans of $25.9 billion as of September 30, 2025 were comprised of $22.0 billion of home equity lines of credit and $3.9 billion of closed-end home equity installment loans. At December 31, 2024, comparable amounts were $26.0 billion, $21.3 billion and $4.7 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

Automobile
As of September 30, 2025 total auto loans of $16.3 billion were comprised of $15.3 billion in the indirect auto portfolio and $1.0 billion in the direct auto portfolio. At December 31, 2024, comparable amounts were $15.4 billion, $14.4 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 799 and the weighted-average term of loan originations was 71 months for the twelve months ended September 30, 2025. Comparable amounts for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 were 793 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 September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
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 2024 Form 10-K for details on our nonaccrual policies.

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, loans accounted for under the fair value option and PCD loans. 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 (including tariffs), 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.

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 3 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 2024 Form 10-K for additional discussion of our ACL, including details of our methodologies. See also the Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments section of this Report for further discussion of the assumptions used in the determination of the ACL as of September 30, 2025.

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 2024 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 third quarter of 2025. 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 third quarter of 2025.
28 The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q
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 2024 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 $432.7 billion at September 30, 2025 from $426.7 billion at December 31, 2024, as higher interest-bearing deposits were partially offset by lower noninterest-bearing deposits. The increase in interest-bearing deposits was primarily due to higher commercial deposits. The decrease in noninterest-bearing deposits was primarily due to lower commercial balances. As of September 30, 2025, uninsured deposits represented approximately 45% 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 notes, 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 7 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:

| Issuances | 8.0 | ||||||||||
| Calls and maturities | (3.5) | ||||||||||
| Other | 1.1 | ||||||||||
| September 30 | $ | 42.2 |
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 September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024:

(c)Total borrowing capacity with the FRB was $73.6 billion at September 30, 2025 and $77.9 billion at December 31, 2024. PNC had no outstanding borrowings with the FRB at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q 29
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 September 30, 2025, PNC Bank’s remaining capacity to issue under the program was $31.5 billion.
The following table details PNC Bank note issuances during the third quarter of 2025:
Table 27: PNC Bank Notes Issued
| Issuance Date | Amount | Description of Issuance | ||||||
| July 21, 2025 | $300 million | $300 million of senior floating rate notes with a maturity date of July 21, 2028. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears at a floating rate per annum equal to Compounded SOFR (determined with respect to each quarterly interest period using SOFR Index as described in the pricing supplement), plus 0.730%, on January 21, April 21, July 21 and October 21 of each year, commencing on October 21, 2025 until the earlier of the optional redemption date or the maturity date. | ||||||
| July 21, 2025 | $1.0 billion | $1.0 billion of 4.429% senior fixed-to-floating rate notes with a maturity date of July 21, 2028. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears at a fixed rate of 4.429% per annum, on January 21 and July 21 of each year, commencing on January 21, 2026. Beginning on July 21, 2027, interest is payable quarterly in arrears at a floating rate per annum equal to Compounded SOFR (determined with respect to each quarterly interest period using the SOFR Index as described in the pricing supplement), plus 0.727%, on October 21, 2027, January 21, 2028, April 21, 2028 and at the maturity date. | ||||||
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 September 30, 2025, 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 September 30, 2025, available parent company liquidity totaled $29.8 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 $7.5 billion at September 30, 2025. See Note 19 Regulatory Matters in our 2024 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. 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 September 30, 2025, there were no issuances outstanding under this program.

Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears at a fixed rate of 5.373% per annum, on January 21 and July 21 of each year, commencing on January 21, 2026. Beginning on July 21, 2035 interest is payable quarterly in arrears at a floating rate per annum equal to Compounded SOFR (determined with respect to each quarterly interest period using the SOFR Index as described in the Prospectus Supplement), plus 1.417%, on October 21, 2035, January 21, 2036, April 21, 2036 and at the maturity date. | ||||||
Parent company senior and subordinated debt carrying value totaled $33.7 billion and $28.4 billion at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
Contractual Obligations and Commitments
We enter into various contractual arrangements in the normal course of business, certain of which require future payments on borrowed funds, time deposits, leases, pension and postretirement benefits and purchase obligations that could impact our liquidity and capital resources. See the Liquidity and Capital Management portion of the Risk Management section of our 2024 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 8 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 2024 Form 10-K.
The following table presents credit ratings and outlook for PNC as of September 30, 2025 and October 31, 2025:

Capital Management
Detailed information on our capital management processes and activities is included in the Supervision and Regulation section of Item 1 of our 2024 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.
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q 31
In the third quarter of 2025, PNC returned $1.0 billion of capital to shareholders, reflecting $0.7 billion of dividends on common shares and $0.3 billion of common share repurchases. Consistent with the SCB framework, which allows for capital return in amounts in excess of the SCB minimum levels, our Board of Directors has authorized a repurchase framework under the previously approved repurchase program of up to 100 million common shares, of which approximately 37% were still available for repurchase at September 30, 2025. Share repurchase activity in the fourth quarter of 2025 is expected to be generally consistent with our third quarter of 2025 share repurchase levels and approximate $300 million to $400 million. PNC may adjust share repurchase activity depending on market and economic conditions, as well as other factors. Based on the results of the Federal Reserve’s 2025 annual stress test, PNC’s SCB for the four-quarter period beginning October 1, 2025 is the regulatory minimum of 2.5%.
On October 2, 2025, the PNC Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend on common stock of $1.70 per share, to be paid on November 5, 2025 to shareholders of record at the close of business October 14, 2025.

(a)As permitted, PNC and PNC Bank have elected to exclude AOCI related to both available-for-sale securities and pension and other post-retirement plans from CET1 capital.
(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)All ratios are calculated using the regulatory capital methodology applicable to PNC and calculated based on the standardized approach.
(e)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 September 30, 2025, 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
32 The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q
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 September 30, 2025 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 Supervision and Regulation section of Item 1 Business, Item 1A Risk Factors and Note 19 Regulatory Matters in our 2024 Form 10-K.
Market Risk Management
See the Market Risk Management portion of the Risk Management section in our 2024 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.
NII sensitivity results for the third quarters of 2025 and 2024 follow:
Table 31: Net Interest Income Sensitivity Analysis
| Third Quarter 2025 | Third Quarter 2024 | |||||||||||||
| Net Interest Income Sensitivity Simulation (a) | ||||||||||||||
| Effect on NII in first year from shocked interest rate: | ||||||||||||||
| 200 basis point instantaneous increase | 1.8 | % | (0.5) | % | ||||||||||
| 200 basis point instantaneous decrease | (2.9) | % | (0.6) | % | ||||||||||
(a)The effect on NII in the first year from a 100 basis point instantaneous increase or decrease is approximately half of the disclosed results for the 200 basis point scenarios.
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. As of the third quarter 2025, the projected balance sheet composition by the end of year one is generally consistent with the spot composition at September 30, 2025.
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 37% through September 2025. 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 increase modestly 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
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q 33
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 $54.2 billion in active and forward starting receive fix / pay float swaps as of September 30, 2025, with a weighted average duration of 2.2 years and an average fixed rate of 3.71%. PNC utilizes receive fix / pay float swaps to hedge fixed rate debt and deposits, as well as pay fix / receive float swaps to hedge the investment securities portfolio. See Note 12 Financial Derivatives for additional information on how we use derivatives to hedge these financial instruments.
Compared to the third quarter of 2024, there have been no material changes to our NII sensitivity assumptions, including data sources that drive assumptions setting.
EVE sensitivity results for the third quarters of 2025 and 2024 follow:

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 September 30, 2025. 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.
In the first quarter of 2025, PNC introduced a new deposit runoff model for EVE. Relative to the legacy model, the new deposit model uses an improved functional form for capturing rate sensitivity and also takes into account more recent deposit behavioral data.
As a result of the introduction of the new deposit model, PNC's estimated balance sheet duration decreased, becoming more neutral. The model change results in our estimated EVE having more symmetrical exposure to +200 bps and -200 bps shocks, as compared to the prior model which resulted in our balance sheet facing greater exposure to a +200 bps rate shock and minimal exposure to a -200 bps rate shock.
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 2024 Form 10-K for more information on our models used to calculate VaR and our backtesting process.
Customer-related trading revenue was $159 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $75 million for the same period in 2024, 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
34 The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q
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.
A summary of our equity investments follows:

Tax Credit Investments
Included in our equity investments are direct tax credit investments and equity investments held by consolidated entities. These tax credit investment balances included unfunded commitments totaling $3.1 billion and $2.9 billion at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. These unfunded commitments are included in Other liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheet.
Note 4 Loan Sale and Servicing Activities and Variable Interest Entities in our 2024 Form 10-K has further information on tax credit investments.
Private Equity and Other
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 $2.5 billion and $2.3 billion at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. As of September 30, 2025, $2.3 billion was invested directly in a variety of companies, and $0.2 billion was invested indirectly through various private equity funds.
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. The Visa Class B-2 common shares, which are included in our other equity investments at cost, remain subject to the same restrictions that were imposed on the Visa Class B-1 common shares. Participation in the exchange required PNC to agree to a make-whole agreement that subjects PNC to the same indemnity obligations to Visa as prior to participation in the exchange program.
The Visa Class B-2 common shares that we own are transferable only under limited circumstances until either the resolution of the pending interchange litigation or Visa launches another exchange program allowing PNC to convert a portion of its Visa Class B-2 common shares into freely transferable Visa Class C common shares. At September 30, 2025, the estimated value of our total investment in the Visa Class B-2 common shares was approximately $0.9 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 2024 Form 10-K for additional information regarding our Visa agreements.
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 gains related to these investments were $3 million and $31 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024, 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 2024 Form 10-K and in Note 11 Fair Value and Note 12 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 F****INANCIAL I****NFORMATION
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.
R****ECENT R****EGULATORY D****EVELOPMENTS
Stress Testing Proposals
On October 24, 2025, the Federal Reserve issued two proposals to enhance the transparency of the stress testing framework. The first proposal seeks comments on the Federal Reserve's stress test models, scenario design framework and changes to the timing assumptions and certain reporting forms. Comments on this proposal are due January 22, 2026. The second proposal seeks comments on the scenarios for the 2026 supervisory stress test and comments are due December 1, 2025. These proposals are designed to provide more transparency and predictability for capital planning purposes.
Resolution and Recovery Planning
On October 27, 2025, the OCC issued a notice of proposed rulemaking to rescind its recovery planning guidelines that apply to large insured national banks, including PNC Bank. Comments on the proposal are due thirty days after publication in the Federal Register.
C****RITICAL A****CCOUNTING E****STIMATES AND J****UDGMENTS
Our consolidated financial statements are prepared by applying certain accounting policies. Note 1 Accounting Policies in our 2024 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 policies and judgments related to residential and commercial MSRs and Level 3 fair value measurements are described in Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments in our 2024 Form 10-K. 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 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.
38 The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q
- 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 2024 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 2024 Form 10-K.
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 September 30, 2025 consider, among other factors, ongoing inflationary pressures and the impacts of trade policy, including tariffs, on the U.S. economic outlook. Given these factors, growth is expected to slow from current levels in the coming quarters. While recession risks remain elevated, our most-likely expectation at September 30, 2025 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 September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024:
Table 36: Key Macroeconomic Variables in CECL Weighted-Average Scenarios
| Assumptions as of September 30, 2025 | |||||||||||
| 2025 | 2026 | 2027 | |||||||||
| U.S. real GDP (a) | 1.1% | 0.6% | 2.0% | ||||||||
| U.S. unemployment rate (b) | 4.5% | 5.2% | 4.8% | ||||||||
| Assumptions as of December 31, 2024 | |||||||||||
| 2025 | 2026 | 2027 | |||||||||
| U.S. real GDP (a) | 0.7% | 2.2% | 2.2% | ||||||||
| U.S. unemployment rate (b) | 4.8% | 4.7% | 4.4% |
(a)Represents year-over-year growth rates.
(b)Represents quarterly average rate at December 31, 2025, 2026 and 2027, respectively.
Real GDP growth is expected to end 2025 at 1.1% on a weighted average basis, up from the 0.7% assumed at December 31, 2024. Growth then slows in 2026, troughing at 0.3% in the third quarter of 2026 before increasing to 2.0% by the end of 2027. Unemployment is expected to increase moderately over the next year. The weighted-average unemployment rate will end 2025 at 4.5%, peaking at 5.2% in the fourth quarter of 2026, before improving to 4.8% by the end of 2027.
Qualitative Component
As further discussed in the Allowance for Credit Losses section of Note 1 Accounting Policies in our 2024 Form 10-K, we incorporate qualitative reserves in the ACL through detailed analysis to 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
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q 39
forecasting limitations, model imprecision, timing of available information, and/or emerging and ongoing credit risks. At September 30, 2025, 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, interest rate movements and housing affordability. Our most significant qualitative factors were related to tariffs and the office portfolio of the commercial real estate loan class.

As of September 30, 2025, we performed an evaluation under the supervision of and with the participation of our management, including the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures and of changes in our internal control over financial reporting.
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 September 30, 2025, and that there has been no change in PNC’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the third quarter of 2025 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
C****AUTIONARY S****TATEMENT R****EGARDING FORWARD-L****OOKING I****NFORMATION
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, but slower economic growth in 2025 and 2026 than in 2024. The government shutdown will weaken growth, but the economy should regain that growth once the shutdown ends. Tariffs are a drag on consumer spending and business investment, while AI-related capex and wealth effects have been key supports to growth. Consumer spending growth is slowing to a pace more consistent with household income growth, and government’s contribution to economic growth will be smaller.
− The baseline forecast anticipates real GDP growth slowing to below 2% in both 2025 and 2026, accompanied by a modest increase in the unemployment rate, which is expected to peak above 4.5% in mid-2026. Tariffs remain a risk to the outlook, and a reversal in sentiment around AI would be a drag. Additionally, a prolonged government shutdown has emerged as a downside risk.
–The baseline forecast is for two consecutive federal funds rate cuts of 25 basis points each at the next two FOMC meetings, ending in late-January 2026 and resulting in a federal funds rate in the range of 3.25% to 3.50%. However, there are two-sided risks to this outlook: (1) if inflation re-accelerates or proves more persistent than expected, the Federal Reserve may cut less or (2) if growth falters or recession emerges, easing could be deeper and more prolonged.

-
PNC’s ability to take certain capital actions, including returning capital to shareholders, is subject to PNC meeting or exceeding minimum capital levels, including a stress capital buffer established by the Federal Reserve Board in connection with the Federal Reserve Board’s CCAR process.
-
PNC’s regulatory capital ratios in the future will depend on, among other things, PNC’s financial performance, the scope and terms of final capital regulations then in effect and management actions affecting the composition of PNC’s balance sheet. In addition, PNC’s ability to determine, evaluate and forecast regulatory capital ratios, and to take actions (such as capital distributions) based on actual or forecasted capital ratios, will be dependent at least in part on the development, validation and regulatory review of related models and the reliability of and risks resulting from extensive use of such models.
-
Legal and regulatory developments could have an impact on our ability to operate our businesses, financial condition, results of operations, competitive position, reputation, or pursuit of attractive acquisition opportunities. Reputational impacts could affect matters such as business generation and retention, liquidity, funding and ability to attract and retain employees. These developments could include:
–Changes to laws and regulations, including changes affecting oversight of the financial services industry, changes in the enforcement and interpretation of such laws and regulations and changes in accounting and reporting standards.
–Unfavorable resolution of legal proceedings or other claims and regulatory and other governmental investigations or other inquiries resulting in monetary losses, costs, or alterations in our business practices and potentially causing reputational harm to PNC.
–Results of the regulatory examination and supervision process, including our failure to satisfy requirements of agreements with governmental agencies.
–Costs associated with obtaining rights in intellectual property claimed by others and of adequacy of our intellectual property protection in general.
-
Business and operating results are affected by our ability to identify and effectively manage risks inherent in our businesses, including, where appropriate, through effective use of systems and controls, third-party insurance, derivatives, and capital management techniques and to meet evolving regulatory capital and liquidity standards.
-
Our reputation and business and operating results may be affected by our ability to appropriately meet or address environmental, social or governance targets, goals, commitments or concerns that may arise.
-
We grow our business in part through acquisitions and new strategic initiatives. Risks and uncertainties include those presented by the nature of the business acquired and strategic initiative, including in some cases those associated with our entry into new businesses or new geographic or other markets and risks resulting from our inexperience in those new areas, as well as risks and uncertainties related to the acquisition transactions themselves, regulatory issues, the integration of the acquired businesses into PNC after closing or any failure to execute strategic or operational plans.
-
Competition can have an impact on customer acquisition, growth and retention and on credit spreads and product pricing, which can affect market share, deposits and revenues. Our ability to anticipate and respond to technological changes can also impact our ability to respond to customer needs and meet competitive demands.
-
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 2024 Form 10-K and subsequent Form 10-Qs 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.

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.
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. During the second quarter of 2025, certain segment prior period information was adjusted to conform with current period presentation. See Note 14 Segment Reporting for more information.
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 2024 Form 10-K. Reference is made to Note 1 Accounting Policies in our 2024 Form 10-K for a detailed description of significant accounting policies. These interim consolidated financial statements serve to update our 2024 Form 10-K and may not include all information and Notes necessary to constitute a complete set of financial statements.
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
See Note 1 Accounting Policies in our 2024 Form 10-K for recently adopted accounting standards. We did not adopt any new accounting standards during the first nine months of 2025.

(a) At September 30, 2025, the accrued interest associated with our held-to-maturity and available-for-sale portfolios totaled $207 million and $282 million, respectively. The comparable amounts at December 31, 2024 were $242 million and $328 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 September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
(c) Amortized cost is presented net of allowance of $62 million for securities available-for-sale, primarily related to non-agency commercial mortgage-backed securities, and $5 million for securities held-to-maturity at September 30, 2025. The comparable amounts at December 31, 2024 were $86 million and $5 million, respectively.
(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 $2.8 billion at September 30, 2025 related to securities transferred, which are offset in AOCI, net of tax. The comparable amount at December 31, 2024 was $3.4 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 September 30, 2025 included $438 million 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 September 30, 2024 was $952 million 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 September 30, 2025, the allowance for investment securities was $67 million and primarily related to non-agency commercial mortgage-backed securities in the available-for-sale portfolio. The comparable amount at December 31, 2024 was $91 million. See Note 1 Accounting Policies in our 2024 Form 10-K for a discussion of the methodologies used to determine the allowance for investment securities.
At September 30, 2025, AOCI included pre-tax losses of $255 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 38 presents the gross unrealized losses and fair value of securities available-for-sale that do not have an associated allowance for investment securities at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. 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
50 The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q
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 September 30, 2025, 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 | |||||||
| • Equipment lease financing | • Automobile | |||||||
| • Credit card | ||||||||
| • Education | ||||||||
| • Other consumer | ||||||||
See Note 1 Accounting Policies in our 2024 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 (including tariffs), 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.

(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 September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, 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 and education loans totaling $0.2 billion and $0.1 billion at September 30, 2025, respectively. Comparable amounts at December 31, 2024 were $0.3 billion and $0.1 billion, respectively.
(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 $1.0 billion at both September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
(f)Collateral dependent loans totaled $1.5 billion and $1.6 billion at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
At September 30, 2025, we pledged unpaid principal balances in the amounts of $46.1 billion of commercial and other loans to the FRB and $80.0 billion of residential real estate and other loans to the FHLB as collateral for the ability to borrow, if necessary. The comparable amounts at December 31, 2024 were $43.4 billion and $89.0 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,
54 The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q
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 2024 Form 10-K for additional information on our nonperforming loan and lease policies.
The following table presents our nonperforming assets as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024:

Loan Sale and Servicing Activities
As more fully described in Note 4 Loan Sale and Servicing Activities and Variable Interest Entities in our 2024 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 under certain conditions and loss share arrangements, 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 5 Goodwill and Mortgage Servicing Rights and Note 11 Fair Value for information on our servicing rights, including the carrying value of servicing assets.

Variable Interest Entities (VIEs)
As discussed in Note 4 Loan Sale and Servicing Activities and Variable Interest Entities included in our 2024 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 53 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 53. These loans are included as part of the credit quality disclosures that we make in Note 3 Loans and Related Allowance for Credit Losses.

Goodwill
See Note 5 Goodwill and Mortgage Servicing Rights in our 2024 Form 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 $3.6 billion at September 30, 2025 and $3.7 billion at December 31, 2024, and consisted of loan servicing contracts for commercial and residential mortgages measured at fair value.
We recognize gains (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 5 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 2024 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 September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 are shown in Tables 55 and 56. 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.
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q 69
A sensitivity analysis of the hypothetical effect on the fair value of MSRs to adverse changes in key assumptions is presented in Tables 55 and 56. 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:

(c)Includes $2.8 billion and $2.2 billion related to investments in qualified affordable housing projects at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
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.
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 97% of our net outstanding standby letters of credit were rated as Pass at September 30, 2025, 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 September 30, 2025 had terms ranging from less than one year to 11 years.
As of September 30, 2025, 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 September 30, 2025 and is included in Other liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheet.

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 2024 Form 10-K.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
Interest-bearing Deposits
In the first quarter of 2025, PNC elected to begin accounting for certain brokered time deposits, which are economically hedged with derivatives, under the fair value option. The election of the fair value option aligns the accounting for the brokered time deposits with the related hedges. Fair value is estimated by discounting contractual cash flows using current market rates for instruments with similar maturities. The portion of the change in fair value resulting from a change in the specified benchmark interest rate is recognized in the Consolidated Income Statement within Deposits interest expense. The remaining change in fair value is attributable to instrument-specific credit risk and is recognized in OCI. Brokered time deposits are classified as Level 2, as the estimates of current market rates used to determine fair value are based on dealer indications and benchmark interest rates that are considered observable.

(b)The difference in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in Other comprehensive income and changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in Other comprehensive income for securities available-for-sale held at the end of the reporting period were insignificant.
(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 were included in Interest income on the Consolidated Income Statement and the remaining net gains (losses) realized and unrealized were 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 were 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 69. 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 2024 Form 10-K.

Financial Instruments Accounted for under Fair Value Option
We elect the fair value option to account for certain financial instruments. For more information on these financial instruments for which the fair value option election has been made, refer to the Fair Value Measurement section of this Note 11. These financial instruments are initially measured at fair value. Gains and losses from initial measurement and any changes in fair value are subsequently recognized in earnings. For interest-bearing deposits, however, any changes in fair value attributable to instrument-specific credit risk are recognized in OCI.
Interest income related to changes in the fair values of these financial instruments is recorded on the Consolidated Income Statement in Other interest income, except for certain residential mortgage loans, for which income is also recorded in Loans interest income. Changes in the value on prepaid forward contracts included in Other assets is reported in Noninterest expense, and interest expense on the Other borrowed funds is reported in Borrowed funds interest expense. Fair value gains and losses recognized in earnings on interest-bearing deposits are reported in Deposits interest expense, consistent with the classification of contractual interest on these deposits.
We have excluded accrued interest from the fair value amounts reported in Table 70. We have excluded interest income and interest expense from the changes in fair value reported in Table 71.

N****OTE 12 F****INANCIAL D****ERIVATIVES
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 2024 Form 10-K.

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 debt 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 September 30, 2025, we expect to reclassify net derivative losses of $111 million pre-tax, or $85 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 September 30, 2025. As of September 30, 2025, the maximum length of time over which forecasted transactions are hedged is seven 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 $28 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $(68) million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and $(96) million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $(59) million for the same period in 2024.
Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments
Beginning in the first quarter of 2025, the other risk management portfolio includes derivatives that are used to economically hedge interest-rate risk associated with interest-bearing brokered time deposits accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis. Gains or losses on these derivatives are included in Deposits interest expense on our Consolidated Income Statement. For additional information on derivatives not designated as hedging instruments under GAAP, see Note 15 Financial Derivatives in our 2024 Form 10-K.

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 2024 Form 10-K.
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q 91
Table 77 shows the impact legally enforceable master netting agreements had on our derivative assets and derivative liabilities at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. 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.
Table 77 includes OTC derivatives not settled through an exchange (“OTC derivatives”) and OTC derivatives cleared through a central clearing house (“OTC cleared derivatives”). OTC derivatives represent contracts executed bilaterally with counterparties that are not settled through an organized exchange or directly cleared through a central clearing house. The majority of OTC derivatives are governed by the ISDA documentation or other legally enforceable master netting agreements. OTC cleared derivatives represent contracts executed bilaterally with counterparties in the OTC market that are novated to a central clearing house that then becomes our counterparty. OTC cleared derivative instruments are typically settled in cash each day based on the prior day value.

92 The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q
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 September 30, 2025, cash and debt securities (primarily agency mortgage-backed securities) totaling $1.7 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 $1.7 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.
Credit-Risk Contingent Features
Certain derivative agreements contain various credit-risk-related contingent provisions, such as those that require our debt to maintain a specified credit rating from one or more of the major credit rating agencies. If our debt ratings were to fall below such specified ratings, the counterparties to the derivative instruments could request immediate payment or demand immediate and ongoing full collateralization on derivative instruments in net liability positions. The following table presents the aggregate fair value of derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features, the associated collateral posted in the normal course of business and the maximum amount of collateral we would be required to post if the credit-risk-related contingent features underlying these agreements had been triggered on September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024:

N****OTE 13 L****EGAL P****ROCEEDINGS
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 13 as well as those matters disclosed in Note 20 Legal Proceedings in our 2024 Form 10-K and in Note 13 Legal Proceedings in our second quarter 2025 Form 10-Q (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 September 30, 2025, 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 2024 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.
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q 93
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. Visa Inc. et al*.*, No. 13 Civ. 4443 (AKH), trial previously scheduled for certain of the named plaintiffs for October 2025 was moved to April 2026. PNC is not named as a defendant in the cases.
USAA Patent Infringement Litigation
On June 12, 2025, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit reversed the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas and set aside the approximately $218 million verdict against PNC in the consolidated cases United Services Automobile Association v. PNC Bank N.A. (Case No. 2:20-cv-319) and United Services Automobile Association vs. PNC Bank N.A. (Case No. 2:21-cv-110). In addition, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit reversed the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas and set aside the $4.3 million verdict against PNC in the consolidated cases United Services Automobile Association v. PNC Bank N.A. (Case No. 2:21-cv-246) and United Services Automobile Association v. PNC Bank N.A. (Case No. 2:22-cv-193). In both instances, USAA sought rehearing of the Federal Circuit’s decision. On September 16, 2025, USAA’s rehearing requests were denied, and on September 23, 2025, the Federal Circuit’s mandates were issued to the District Court.
In the consolidated cases United Services Automobile Association v. PNC Bank, N.A. (Case No. 23-2124) and United Services Automobile Association v. PNC Bank, N.A. (Case No. 23-2125), USAA sought rehearing of the Federal Circuit’s decision to affirm the Patent Trial and Appeal Board’s invalidity findings. USAA’s request for rehearing was denied by the Federal Circuit on May 7, 2025, and the mandate issued on May 14, 2025. On August 5, 2025, USAA petitioned for a writ of certiorari to the United States Supreme Court (No. 25-149). On August 27, 2025, PNC filed its brief in opposition to USAA’s petition. On October 6, 2025, USAA’s petition for a writ of certiorari to the United States Supreme Court was denied.
Regulatory and Governmental Inquiries
We are the subject of investigations, audits, examinations and other forms of regulatory and governmental inquiry covering a broad
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.

N****OTE 14 S****EGMENT R****EPORTING
The following disclosures reflect the adoption of ASU 2023-07, see Note 1 Accounting Policies in our 2024 Form 10-K for additional information related to our adoption of this ASU.
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. Brokerage, investment management and cash management products and services 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, unions, municipalities and non-profits.
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.
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q 95
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 and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 are as follows:
