Loan Modifications for Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulties
As part of BancShares’ ongoing credit risk management practices, BancShares attempts to work with borrowers when necessary to extend or modify loan terms to better align with the borrowers’ current ability to repay. BancShares’ modifications granted to debtors experiencing financial difficulties typically take the form of term extensions, interest rate reductions, payment delays, principal forgiveness, or a combination thereof. Modifications are made in accordance with internal policies and guidelines to conform to regulatory guidance.

The following tables present the amortized cost of loan modifications made to debtors experiencing financial difficulty, disaggregated by class and type of loan modification. The tables also provide financial effects by type of such loan modifications for the respective loan class. Loan modifications for principal forgiveness round to less than $ 1  million for all loan classes in all periods presented and are not presented in the following tables.

Note: The financial effects of loan modifications for certain loan classes reported in the tables above were not reported in the preceding tables as the total amortized cost of loans modified during the period for such loan classes rounded to less than $ 1  million.

Borrowers experiencing financial difficulties are typically identified in our credit risk management process before loan modifications occur. An assessment of whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty is reassessed or performed on the date of a modification. Since the effect of most modifications made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty is already included in the ALLL because of the measurement methodologies used to estimate the ALLL, a change to the ALLL is generally not recorded upon modification. Upon BancShares’ determination that a modified loan (or portion of a loan) has subsequently been deemed uncollectible, the loan (or a portion of the loan) is charged off.

At September 30, 2025, there were $ 113  million of loans modified in the twelve months ended September 30, 2025, which defaulted subsequent to modification.

(1) The draw period ended on March 27, 2025, therefore there is no available borrowing capacity at September 30, 2025. Loans remain pledged as collateral for the Purchase Money Note.

As a member of the FHLB, FCB can access financing based on an evaluation of its creditworthiness, statement of financial position, size and eligibility of collateral. FCB may at any time grant a security interest in, sell, convey or otherwise dispose of any of the assets used for collateral, provided that FCB is in compliance with the collateral maintenance requirement immediately following such disposition. There were no outstanding advances from the FHLB at September 30, 2025 or December 31, 2024.

Under borrowing arrangements with the FRB, BancShares has access to the FRB Discount Window on a secured basis. There were no outstanding borrowings with the FRB Discount Window at September 30, 2025 or December 31, 2024.

In connection with the SVBB Acquisition, FCB and the FDIC entered into financing agreements, including the five-year Purchase Money Note, and the Advance Facility Agreement, which allowed for advances through March 27, 2025. There were no amounts outstanding at the end of the draw period of the facility on March 27, 2025. Refer to Note 2—Business Combinations for further discussion of these agreements and Note 9—Borrowings for the outstanding carrying value of the Purchase Money Note.

NOTE 5 — ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN AND LEASE LOSSES

The ALLL is reported as a separate line item on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, while the reserve for off-balance sheet credit exposure is included in other liabilities. The provision or benefit for credit losses related to (i) loans and leases (ii) off-balance sheet credit exposure, and (iii) investment securities available for sale, if any, is reported in the Consolidated Statements of Income as provision or benefit for credit losses.

The ALLL activity for loans and leases is summarized in the following table:

The decrease of $ 20  million in the ALLL at September 30, 2025 compared to June 30, 2025 primarily reflects improvements in the economic outlook and other changes, including the elimination of reserves related to Hurricane Helene, partially offset by higher specific reserves for individually evaluated loans, and growth in global fund banking loans which have a lower loss rate relative to our other portfolios. Also, during the three months ended September 30, 2025, we updated our PD, LGD, and exposure at default methodology for certain portfolios which contributed to changes in the ALLL compared to prior periods.

The decrease of $ 24  million in the ALLL at September 30, 2025 compared to December 31, 2024 was also mainly due to the changes discussed above.

The following table presents the components of the provision for credit losses:

NOTE 6 — LEASES

Lessee
BancShares’ leases primarily include administrative offices and bank locations. Substantially all of our operating lease liabilities relate to United States real estate leases. Our finance lease liabilities relate to equipment leases, including the lease of certain ATMs. Our real estate leases have remaining lease terms of up to 32 years. Our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease, and our operating leases have renewal terms that can extend from 1 to 25 years. The options are included in the lease term when it is determined that it is reasonably certain the option will be exercised.

The following table presents supplemental balance sheet information and remaining weighted average lease terms and discount rates:

As of September 30, 2025, there were no leases that have not yet commenced that would have a material impact on BancShares’ consolidated financial statements.

The following table presents components of lease cost:

Sublease income Occupancy expense ( 1 ) ( 1 ) ( 4 ) ( 4 )
Net lease cost (1)
$ 25   $ 25   $ 74   $ 75  

(1) Includes short-term lease cost.

Operating lease cost is recognized as a single lease cost on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

For finance leases, the right of use (“ROU”) asset is amortized straight-line over the lease term as equipment expense and interest on the lease liability is recognized separately.

Variable lease cost includes common area maintenance, property taxes, utilities, and other operating expenses related to leased premises recognized in the period in which the expense was incurred. Certain of our lease agreements also include rental payments adjusted periodically for inflation. While lease liabilities are not remeasured because of these changes, these adjustments are treated as variable lease costs and recognized in the period in which the expense is incurred.

Sublease income results from leasing excess building space that BancShares is no longer utilizing under operating leases, which have remaining lease terms of up to 11 years.

The following table presents supplemental cash flow information related to leases:

Lessor
BancShares leases equipment to commercial end-users under operating lease and finance lease arrangements. The majority of operating lease equipment is long-lived rail equipment, which is typically leased several times over its life. We also lease technology and office equipment, and large and small industrial, medical, and transportation equipment under both operating leases and finance leases.

Our Rail operating leases typically do not include purchase options. Many of our finance leases, and other equipment operating leases, offer the lessee the option to purchase the equipment at fair market value or for a nominal fixed purchase option. Many of the leases that do not have a nominal purchase option include renewal provisions resulting in some leases continuing beyond the initial contractual term. Our leases typically do not include early termination options. Continued rent payments are due if leased equipment is not returned at the end of the lease.

The table that follows presents lease income related to BancShares’ operating and finance leases:

NOTE 7 — GOODWILL AND CORE DEPOSIT INTANGIBLES

Goodwill
BancShares had goodwill of $ 346 million at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. There was no goodwill impairment during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 or 2024. Goodwill relates to the General Bank reporting segment.

Core Deposit Intangibles
Core deposit intangibles represent the estimated fair value of core deposits and other customer relationships acquired. Core deposit intangibles are being amortized over their estimated useful lives. The following tables summarize the activity for core deposit intangibles:

NOTE 8 — VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

Unconsolidated VIEs
Unconsolidated VIEs include limited partnership interests and joint ventures where BancShares’ involvement is limited to an investor interest and BancShares does not have the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance or obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. 

The table below provides a summary of the assets and liabilities included on the Consolidated Balance Sheets associated with unconsolidated VIEs. The table also presents our maximum exposure to loss which consists of outstanding book basis and unfunded commitments for future investments, and represents potential losses that would be incurred under hypothetical circumstances, such that the value of BancShares’ interests and any associated collateral declines to zero and assuming no recovery. BancShares believes the possibility is remote under this hypothetical scenario; accordingly, this disclosure is not an indication of expected loss.

We have investments in qualified affordable housing projects, primarily to support our Community Reinvestment Act (“CRA”) initiatives and obtain tax credits. These investments are accounted for using the PAM and provide tax benefits in the form of tax deductions from operating losses and tax credits. Under the PAM, the initial cost of the investment is amortized in proportion to the tax credits and other tax benefits received, and the net investment performance is recognized on the Consolidated Statements of Income as a component of income tax expense.

Changes in income taxes payable are reported in the net change in other liabilities as an adjustment to reconcile net income to net cash provided by operating activities.

NOTE 9 — BORROWINGS

Short-term Borrowings

Securities Sold under Agreements to Repurchase
BancShares held $ 423 million and $ 367 million at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, of securities sold under agreements to repurchase that have overnight contractual maturities and are collateralized by government agency securities. The weighted average interest rate for securities sold under agreements to repurchase was 0.47 % and 0.59 % at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

BancShares utilizes securities sold under agreements to repurchase to facilitate the needs for collateralization of commercial customers and secure wholesale funding needs. Repurchase agreements are transactions whereby BancShares offers to sell to a counterparty an undivided interest in an eligible security at an agreed upon purchase price, and which obligates BancShares to repurchase the security at an agreed upon date, repurchase price and interest rate. These agreements are recorded at the amount of cash received in connection with the transactions and are reflected as securities sold under customer repurchase agreements.

BancShares monitors collateral levels on a continuous basis and maintains records of each transaction specifically describing the applicable security and the counterparty’s fractional interest in that security, and segregates the security from general assets in accordance with regulations governing custodial holdings of securities. The primary risk with repurchase agreements is market risk associated with the investments securing the transactions, as additional collateral may be required based on fair value changes of the underlying investments. Securities pledged as collateral under repurchase agreements are maintained with safekeeping agents. The carrying value of investment securities pledged as collateral under repurchase agreements was $ 500 million and $ 435 million at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

NOTE 10 — DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Our derivatives designated as hedging instruments include interest rate swap contracts utilized to manage our interest rate exposure for items on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. This includes floating-rate loan portfolio cash flow hedges and fair value hedges of our fixed-rate borrowings and deposits.

Our derivatives not designated as hedging instruments mainly include interest rate and foreign exchange contracts that our customers utilized for their risk management needs. We typically manage our exposure to these customer derivatives by entering into offsetting or “back-to-back” interest rate and foreign exchange contracts with third-party dealers.

Derivative instruments that are cleared through certain central counterparty clearing houses are settled-to-market and reported net of collateral positions.
Refer to Note 11—Fair Value for further information on derivatives.

BancShares believes its ISDA agreements meet the definition of a master netting arrangement or similar agreement for purposes of the above disclosure.
(2)     In conjunction with the ISDA agreements described above, BancShares has entered into collateral arrangements with its counterparties, which provide for the exchange of cash depending on the change in the market valuation of the derivative contracts outstanding. Such collateral is available to be applied in settlement of the net balances upon an event of default of one of the counterparties. Collateral pledged or received is included in other assets or deposits, respectively.

NOTE 11 — FAIR VALUE

Fair Value Hierarchy
BancShares measures certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels.

Assets and liabilities are recorded at fair value according to a fair value hierarchy comprised of three levels. The levels are based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. The level within the fair value hierarchy for an asset or liability is based on the lowest level of input significant to the fair value measurement with Level 1 inputs considered highest and Level 3 inputs considered lowest. A brief description of each input level follows:
• Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
• Level 2 inputs are quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active and inputs other than quoted prices observable for the assets or liabilities and market corroborated inputs.
• Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. These unobservable inputs and assumptions reflect the estimates market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

The methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows:

Investment securities available for sale . The fair value of U.S. Treasury, government agency, mortgage-backed securities, municipal bonds, and a portion of the corporate bonds are generally estimated using a third-party pricing service. To obtain an understanding of the processes and methodologies used, management reviews correspondence from the third-party pricing service. Management also performs a price variance analysis process to corroborate the reasonableness of prices. The third-party provider evaluates securities based on comparable investments with trades and market data and will utilize pricing models which use a variety of inputs, such as benchmark yields, reported trades, issuer spreads, benchmark securities, bids and offers as needed. These securities are generally classified as Level 2. The remaining corporate bonds held are generally measured at fair value based on indicative bids from broker-dealers using inputs that are not directly observable. These securities are classified as Level 3.

Marketable equity securities. Equity securities are measured at fair value using observable closing prices. The valuation also considers the amount of market activity by examining trade volume. Equity securities are classified as Level 1 if they are traded in an active market and as Level 2 if the observable closing price is from a less than active market.

Loans and Loans held for sale. Certain residential real estate loans originated for sale to investors are carried at fair value based on quoted market prices for similar types of loans, which are considered Level 2 inputs. In instances when loans are not sold and subsequently transferred to portfolio, accounting at fair value is continued.

Derivative Assets and Liabilities. Derivatives were valued using models that incorporate inputs depending on the type of derivative. Other than the fair value of equity warrants and credit derivatives, which were estimated using Level 3 inputs, most derivative instruments were valued using Level 2 inputs based on observed pricing for similar assets and liabilities and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market. Refer to Note 10—Derivative Financial Instruments for notional amounts and fair values.

(1) Originated loans held for sale include loans held for sale and loans originated for sale but transferred to portfolio and held for investment.

BancShares has elected the fair value option for residential mortgage loans originated for sale. This election reduces certain timing differences in the Consolidated Statements of Income and better aligns with the management of the portfolio from a business perspective. The changes in fair value that were recorded as a component of other noninterest income were insignificant for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. Interest earned on originated loans held for sale is recorded within interest income on loans and leases in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

No originated loans held for sale were 90 or more days past due or on nonaccrual status as of September 30, 2025 or December 31, 2024.

Assets Measured at Estimated Fair Value on a Non-recurring Basis
Certain assets or liabilities are required to be measured at estimated fair value on a non-recurring basis subsequent to initial recognition. Generally, these adjustments are the result of lower of cost or fair value (“LOCOM”) or other impairment accounting. The following table presents carrying value of assets measured at estimated fair value on a non-recurring basis for which gains and losses have been recorded in the periods. The gains and losses reflect amounts recorded for the respective periods, regardless of whether the asset is still held at period end.

Certain other assets are adjusted to their fair value on a non-recurring basis, including certain loans, OREO, and goodwill, which are periodically tested for impairment. Most loans held for investment, deposits, and borrowings are not reported at fair value.

The methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis are as follows:

Assets held for sale - loans. Loans held for investment subsequently transferred to held for sale are carried at the LOCOM. When available, the fair values for the transferred loans are based on quoted prices from the purchase commitments for the individual loans being transferred and are considered Level 1 inputs. The fair value of Level 2 assets was primarily estimated based on prices of recent trades of similar assets. For other loans held for sale, the fair value of Level 3 assets was primarily measured under the income approach using the discounted cash flow model based on Level 3 inputs including discount rate or the price of committed trades. Gains and losses are recorded in noninterest income.

Loans - collateral dependent loans. The population of Level 3 loans measured at fair value that are experiencing financial difficulty and measured on a non-recurring basis includes collateral-dependent loans evaluated individually. Collateral values are determined using appraisals or other third-party value estimates of the subject property discounted based on estimated selling costs, and adjustments for other external factors that may impact the marketability of the collateral. Gains and losses generally reflect the required net provision and charge-offs specific to the loans included in the population for the respective periods and are recorded in the provision for credit losses.

Other real estate owned. OREO is carried at LOCOM. OREO asset valuations are determined by using appraisals or other third-party value estimates of the subject property with discounts, generally between 7 % and 10 %, applied for estimated selling costs and other external factors that may impact the marketability of the property. At September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the weighted average discount applied was 9.66 % and 9.45 %, respectively. Changes to the value of the assets between scheduled valuation dates are monitored through continued communication with brokers and monthly reviews by the asset manager assigned to each asset. If there are any significant changes in the market or the subject property, valuations are adjusted or new appraisals are ordered to ensure the reported values reflect the most current information.

The methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments not discussed elsewhere are as follows:

Interest-earning Deposits at Banks. The carrying value of interest-earning deposits at banks approximates its fair value due to its short-term nature and is classified on the fair value hierarchy as Level 1. The balances at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 included $ 212  million and $ 211  million, respectively, as a required minimum deposit under the Purchase Money Note.

Net loans. The carrying value of net loans is net of the ALLL. Loans are generally valued by discounting expected cash flows using market inputs with adjustments based on cohort level assumptions for certain loan types as well as internally developed estimates at a business segment level. Due to the significance of the unobservable market inputs and assumptions, as well as the absence of a liquid secondary market for most loans, these loans are classified as Level 3. Certain loans are measured based on observable market prices sourced from external data providers and classified as Level 2. Nonaccrual loans are written down and reported at their estimated recovery value, which approximates their fair value, and classified as Level 3.

Securities Purchased Under Agreements to Resell. The fair value of securities purchased under agreements to resell equal the carrying value due to the short term nature, generally overnight, and therefore present an insignificant risk of change in fair value due to changes in market interest rate, and classified as Level 2.

Investment securities held to maturity. BancShares’ portfolio of debt securities held to maturity consists of mortgage-backed securities issued by government agencies and government sponsored entities, U.S. Treasury notes, unsecured bonds issued by government agencies and government sponsored entities, and securities issued by the Supranational Entities & Multilateral Development Banks. We primarily use prices obtained from pricing services to determine the fair value of securities, which are Level 2 inputs.

FHLB stock. The carrying amount of FHLB stock is a reasonable estimate of fair value, as these securities are not readily marketable and are evaluated for impairment based on the ultimate recoverability of the par value. BancShares considers positive and negative evidence, including the profitability and asset quality of the issuer, dividend payment history and recent redemption experience, when determining the ultimate recoverability of the par value. BancShares investment in FHLB stock is ultimately recoverable at par. The inputs used in the fair value measurement for the FHLB stock are considered Level 2 inputs.

Mortgage servicing rights. The fair value of mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) is determined using a pooling methodology. Similar loans are pooled together and a model which relies on discount rates, estimates of prepayment rates and the weighted average cost to service the loans is used to determine the fair value. The inputs used in the fair value measurement for MSRs are considered Level 3 inputs.

Deposits. The estimated fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, such as demand deposit accounts, money market accounts, and savings accounts was the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of time deposits was estimated based on a discounted cash flow technique using Level 2 inputs appropriate to the contractual maturity.

Credit balances of factoring clients. The impact of the time value of money from the unobservable discount rate for credit balances of factoring clients is inconsequential due to the short term nature of these balances, therefore, the fair value approximated carrying value, and the credit balances are classified as Level 3.

Short-term borrowed funds. The fair value of short-term borrowed funds, which includes repurchase agreements, approximates carrying value and are classified as Level 2.

Long-term borrowings. For certain long-term senior and subordinated unsecured borrowings, the fair values are sourced from a third-party pricing service. The fair values of other long-term borrowings are determined by discounting future cash flows using current interest rates for similar financial instruments. The inputs used in the fair value measurement for FHLB borrowings, senior and subordinated debentures, and other borrowings are classified as Level 2.

For all other financial assets and financial liabilities, the carrying value is a reasonable estimate of the fair value as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The carrying value and fair value for these assets and liabilities are equivalent because they are relatively short-term in nature and there is no interest rate or credit risk that would cause the fair value to differ from the carrying value. Cash and due from banks is classified as Level 1. Accrued interest receivable and accrued interest payable are classified as Level 2.

NOTE 15 — INCOME TAXES

BancShares’ global effective income tax rates (“ETRs”) were 24.4 % and 26.8 % for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and 24.7 % and 27.3 % for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease in the ETR for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to 2024 was primarily due to an increase in tax credits and a reduction in the state and local income tax rate.

The quarterly income tax expense is based on a projection of BancShares’ annual ETR. This annual ETR is applied to the year-to-date consolidated pretax income to determine the interim provision for income taxes before discrete items. The ETR each period is also impacted by a number of factors, including the relative mix of domestic and international earnings, effects of changes in enacted tax laws, adjustments to the valuation allowances, and discrete items. The currently forecasted ETR may vary from the actual year-end 2025 ETR due to the changes in these factors.

On July 4, 2025, President Trump signed into law H.R. 1, referred to as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”). The OBBBA contains several provisions that impact corporate taxation. The enactment of the OBBBA did not have a material impact on the tax rate or results of operations.

Uncertain Tax Benefits
BancShares’ recognizes tax benefits when it is more likely than not that the position will prevail, based solely on the technical merits under the tax law of the relevant jurisdiction. BancShares will recognize the tax benefit if the position meets this recognition threshold determined based on the largest amount of the benefit that is more than likely to be realized.

Deferred Tax Assets and Valuation Adjustments
BancShares’ ability to recognize deferred tax assets (“DTAs”) is evaluated on a quarterly basis to determine if there are any significant events that would affect our ability to utilize existing DTAs. If events are identified that affect our ability to utilize our DTAs, adjustments to the valuation allowance adjustments may be required.

NOTE 17 — SEGMENT INFORMATION

Effective January 1, 2025, we made changes to the composition of our reportable segments as further discussed in Note 1—Significant Accounting Policies and Basis of Presentation, and the segment disclosures below for 2024 were recast to conform with those segment composition changes.

BancShares’ segments include the General Bank, the Commercial Bank, SVB Commercial, and Rail. All other financial information not included in the segments is reported in the Corporate section of the segment disclosures. We do not aggregate multiple operating segments into a reportable segment. Therefore, each of our operating segments are reportable segments.

Under our segment expense allocation methodology, allocated expenses increase noninterest expense of the applicable segment(s), with an offsetting decrease to Corporate noninterest expense. “All other noninterest expense” in the segment reporting tables below includes the effect of allocated expenses, resulting in a reduction to expense (or “Contra Expense”) for Corporate.

General Bank
The General Bank segment delivers products and services to consumer and small business clients through our extensive network of branches, various digital channels and a dedicated Private Bank. We offer a full suite of deposit products, loans (primarily residential mortgages and business and commercial loans), cash management, private banking and wealth management, payment services, and treasury services. We offer conforming and jumbo residential mortgage loans throughout the United States that are primarily originated through branches and retail referrals, employee referrals, internet leads, direct marketing and a correspondent lending channel, as well as through our private banking service. Private banking and wealth management offers a customized suite of products and services to individuals and institutional clients, as well as private equity and venture capital professionals and executive leaders of the innovation companies they support, and premium wine clients. The General Bank segment offers brokerage, investment advisory, private stock loans, other secured and unsecured lending products and vineyard development loans, as well as planning-based financial strategies, family office, financial planning, tax planning and trust services. The General Bank segment also includes a community association bank channel that supports deposit, cash management and lending to homeowner associations and property management companies.

Revenue is primarily generated from interest earned on loans. Noninterest income is primarily generated from fees for banking and advisory services, including lending-related fees, most of BancShares’ income related to deposit fees and service charges, cardholder services, along with essentially all of the wealth management services income. We primarily originate loans by utilizing our branch network and industry referrals, as well as direct digital marketing efforts. We derive our SBA loans through a network of SBA originators. We periodically purchase loans on a whole-loan basis. We also invest in community development that supports the construction of affordable housing in our communities in line with our CRA initiatives.

51

Commercial Bank
The Commercial Bank segment provides a range of lending, leasing, capital markets, asset management, and other financial and advisory services, primarily tailored to commercial and middle market companies in a wide range of industries, including energy, healthcare, technology media and telecommunications, asset-backed lending, capital finance, maritime, aerospace and defense, and sponsor finance. Loans offered are primarily senior secured loans collateralized by accounts receivable, inventory, machinery and equipment, transportation equipment, and/or intangibles, and are often used for working capital, plant expansion, acquisitions, or recapitalizations. These loans include revolving lines of credit and term loans and, depending on the nature of the collateral, may be referred to as collateral-backed loans, asset-based loans or cash flow loans. We provide senior secured loans to developers and other commercial real estate (“CRE”) professionals. Additionally, we provide business loans and leases, including both capital and operating leases, through a highly automated credit approval, documentation and funding process.

We provide factoring, receivable management and secured financing to businesses that operate in several industries. These include apparel, textile, furniture, home furnishings, and consumer electronics. Factoring entails the assumption of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable arising from the sale of goods from our factoring clients to their customers that have been factored (i.e., sold or assigned to the factor). Our factoring clients, which are generally manufacturers or importers of goods, are the counterparties on factoring, financing or receivables purchasing agreements to sell trade receivables to us. Our factoring clients’ customers, which are generally retailers, are the account debtors and obligors on trade accounts receivable that have been factored.

Revenue is primarily generated from interest and fees on loans. Noninterest income is mostly generated from rental income on operating lease equipment, lending-related fees, including most of BancShares’ capital market fees, and other revenue from banking services. Rental income is generally influenced by the size of the operating lease portfolio. Noninterest income also includes all of the commissions earned on factoring-related activities. We derive most of our commercial lending business through direct marketing to borrowers, lessees, manufacturers, vendors, and distributors. We also utilize referrals as a source for commercial lending business. We may periodically buy participations or syndications of loans and lines of credit and purchase loans on a whole-loan basis.

Rental income and depreciation expense on operating lease equipment is related to small and large ticket equipment we own and lease to others. Operating lease equipment is subject to depreciation expense over the useful life of the small and large ticket equipment, which is generally 3 - 10 years.

SVB Commercial
The SVB Commercial segment offers products and services to commercial clients and investors across stages, sectors and regions in the innovation ecosystem, as well as private equity and venture capital firms. The SVB Commercial segment provides solutions to the financial needs of commercial clients. Loan products consist of capital call lines of credit, investor dependent loans, and commercial and industrial loans made primarily to technology, life science and healthcare companies.

Revenue is primarily generated from interest earned on loans. Noninterest income is mostly generated from fees, including essentially all of client investment fees and most of the international fees, and other revenue from lending-related activities and banking services.

Deposit products include business and analysis checking accounts, money market accounts, multi-currency accounts, bank accounts, sweep accounts, and positive pay services. Services are provided through online and mobile banking platforms as well as branch locations.

52

Rail
The Rail segment offers customized leasing and financing solutions on a fleet of railcars and locomotives to railroads and shippers throughout North America. Railcar types include covered hopper cars used to ship grain and agricultural products, plastic pellets, sand, and cement; tank cars for energy products and chemicals; gondolas for coal, steel coil and mill service products; open-top hopper cars for coal and aggregates; boxcars for paper and auto parts; and centerbeams and flat cars for lumber. Revenue is generated primarily from rental income on operating lease equipment, which is included in noninterest income, and to a lesser extent, gains on sale of leasing equipment. Rental income is generally influenced by the size of the operating lease portfolio, utilization of the railcars, re-pricing of equipment renewed upon lease maturities, and pricing on new leases. Re-pricing refers to the rental rate in the renewed equipment contract compared to the prior contract.

Operating lease equipment is subject to depreciation expense over the useful life of the rail equipment, which is generally longer in duration, 40 - 50 years. The Rail segment leases railcars, primarily pursuant to full-service lease contracts under which we, as lessor, are responsible for railcar maintenance and repair. Maintenance and other operating lease expenses relate to equipment ownership and leasing costs associated with the railcar portfolio and tend to be variable due to timing and the number of railcars coming on or off lease as well as asset condition.

Corporate
All other financial information not included in the segments is reported in Corporate. Corporate contains BancShares’ centralized treasury function, which manages the investment security portfolio, interest-earning deposits at banks and corporate/wholesale funding (e.g., borrowings, Direct Bank deposits and brokered deposits). Corporate deposits are primarily comprised of Direct Bank deposits.

Corporate includes interest income on investment securities and interest-earning deposits at banks; interest expense for borrowings, Direct Bank deposits, and brokered deposits; as well as funds transfer pricing allocations. Noninterest income includes gains or losses on sales of investment securities, fair value adjustments on marketable equity securities, and income from bank owned life insurance. Personnel cost in Corporate includes the personnel costs not allocated to the operating segments. Corporate includes acquisition-related expenses and certain items related to accounting for business combinations, such as gains on acquisitions, Day 2 Provision for Credit Losses and discount accretion income for certain acquired loans. Corporate also includes the offsetting impacts of Allocated Expenses as discussed above.

NOTE 18 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Commitments
To meet the financing needs of its customers, BancShares and its subsidiaries have financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk. These financial instruments involve elements of credit, interest rate or liquidity risk and include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit.

The accompanying table summarizes credit-related commitments and other purchase and funding commitments:

dollars in millions September 30, 2025 December 31, 2024
Financing Commitments
Financing assets (excluding leases) $ 51,935   $ 53,250  
Letters of Credit
Standby letters of credit 2,478   2,188  
Other letters of credit 158   103  
Deferred Purchase Agreements 1,870   1,802  
Purchase and Funding Commitments (1)
232   178  

(1)     BancShares’ purchase and funding commitments relate to the equipment leasing businesses’ commitments to fund Rail’s railcar manufacturer purchase and upgrade commitments.

Financing Commitments
Commitments to extend credit are legally binding agreements to lend to customers. These commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of fees. Established credit standards control the credit risk exposure associated with these commitments. In some cases, BancShares requires collateral be pledged to secure the commitment, including cash deposits, securities and other assets.

Financing commitments, referred to as net unfunded loan commitments or lines of credit, primarily reflect BancShares’ agreements to lend to its customers, subject to the customers’ compliance with contractual obligations. At September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, substantially all undrawn financing commitments were senior facilities. Financing commitments also include $ 340  million and $ 79  million at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, related to off-balance sheet commitments to fund equity investments. Commitments to fund equity investments are contingent on events that have yet to occur and may be subject to change.

As financing commitments may not be fully drawn, may expire unused, may be reduced or canceled at the customer’s request, and may require the customer to be in compliance with certain conditions, commitment amounts do not necessarily reflect actual future cash flow requirements.

The table above excludes uncommitted revolving credit facilities extended by Commercial Services to its clients for working capital purposes. In connection with these facilities, Commercial Services has the sole discretion throughout the duration of these facilities to determine the amount of credit that may be made available to its clients at any time and whether to honor any specific advance requests made by its clients under these credit facilities.

Letters of Credit
Standby letters of credit are commitments to pay the beneficiary thereof if drawn upon by the beneficiary upon satisfaction of the terms of the letter of credit. Those commitments are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements. To mitigate its risk, BancShares’ credit policies govern the issuance of standby letters of credit. The credit risk related to the issuance of these letters of credit is essentially the same as in extending loans to clients and, therefore, these letters of credit are collateralized when necessary. These financial instruments generate fees and involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of amounts recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Deferred Purchase Agreements
A deferred purchase agreement (“DPA”) is provided in conjunction with factoring, whereby a client is provided with credit protection for trade receivables without purchasing the receivables. The trade receivables terms generally require payment in 90 days or less. If the client’s customer is unable to pay an undisputed receivable solely as the result of credit risk, BancShares is then required to purchase the receivable from the client, less any borrowings for such client based on such defaulted receivable. The outstanding amount in the table above, less $ 241 million and $ 166 million at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, of borrowings for such clients, is the maximum amount that BancShares would be required to pay under all DPAs. This maximum amount would only occur if all receivables subject to DPAs default in the manner described above, thereby requiring BancShares to purchase all such receivables from the DPA clients.
56

The table above includes $ 1.83 billion and $ 1.74 billion of DPA exposures at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, related to receivables on which BancShares has assumed the credit risk. The table also includes $ 37 million and $ 59 million available under DPA credit line agreements provided at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The DPA credit line agreements specify a contractually committed amount of DPA credit protection and are cancellable by us only after a notice period, which is typically 90 days or less.

Litigation and Other Contingencies
The Parent Company and certain of its subsidiaries have been named as a defendant in legal actions arising from its normal business activities in which damages in various amounts are claimed. BancShares is also exposed to litigation risk relating to the prior business activities of banks from which assets were acquired and liabilities assumed.

BancShares is involved, and from time to time in the future may be involved, in a number of pending and threatened judicial, regulatory, and arbitration proceedings as well as proceedings, investigations, examinations and other actions brought or considered by governmental and self-regulatory agencies. These matters arise in connection with the ordinary conduct of BancShares’ business. At any given time, BancShares may also be in the process of responding to subpoenas, requests for documents, data and testimony relating to such matters and engaging in discussions to resolve the matters (all of the foregoing collectively being referred to as “Litigation”). While most Litigation relates to individual claims, BancShares may be subject to putative class action claims and similar broader claims and indemnification obligations.

In light of the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of Litigation matters and indemnification obligations, particularly when such matters are in their early stages or where the claimants seek indeterminate damages, BancShares cannot state with confidence what the eventual outcome of the pending Litigation will be, what the timing of the ultimate resolution of these matters will be, or what the eventual loss, fines, or penalties related to each pending matter will be, if any. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, BancShares’ establishes reserves for Litigation when those matters present loss contingencies as to which it is both probable that a loss will occur and the amount of such loss can reasonably be estimated. Based on currently available information, BancShares does not believe that the outcome of Litigation that is currently pending will have a material impact on BancShares’ consolidated financial statements. The actual results of resolving such matters may be substantially higher than the amounts reserved.

For certain Litigation matters in which BancShares is involved, BancShares is able to estimate a range of reasonably possible losses in excess of established reserves and insurance. For other matters for which a loss is probable or reasonably possible, such an estimate cannot be determined. For litigation and other matters where losses are reasonably possible and estimable, management currently estimates an aggregate range of reasonably possible losses to be up to approximately $ 20 million in excess of any established reserves and any insurance we reasonably believe we will collect related to those matters. This estimate represents reasonably possible losses (in excess of established reserves and insurance) over the life of such Litigation, which may span a currently indeterminable number of years, and is based on information currently available as of September 30, 2025. The Litigation matters underlying the estimated range will change from time to time, and actual results may vary significantly from this estimate.

Those Litigation matters for which an estimate is not reasonably possible or as to which a loss does not appear to be reasonably possible, based on current information, are not included within this estimated range and, therefore, this estimated range does not represent BancShares’ maximum loss exposure.

The foregoing statements about BancShares’ Litigation are based on BancShares’ judgments, assumptions, and estimates and are necessarily subjective and uncertain. In the event of unexpected future developments, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of these cases, matters, and proceedings, if unfavorable, may be material to BancShares’ consolidated financial position in a particular period.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Management’s discussion and analysis (“MD&A”) of earnings and related financial data is presented to assist in understanding the financial condition and results of operations of First Citizens BancShares, Inc. (the “Parent Company” and, when including all of its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, “we,” “us,” “our,” or “BancShares”) and its banking subsidiary, First-Citizens Bank & Trust Company (“FCB”). Unless otherwise noted, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” and “BancShares” in this section refer to the consolidated financial position and consolidated results of operations for BancShares.

This MD&A is expected to provide our investors with a view of our financial condition and results of operations from our management’s perspective. This MD&A should be read in conjunction with the unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes presented within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Form 10-Q”), along with our consolidated financial statements and related MD&A of financial condition and results of operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the “2024 Form 10-K”). Throughout this MD&A, references to a specific “Note” refer to Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1. Financial Statements.

Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Although certain amounts for prior years have been reclassified to conform with financial statement presentations for 2025, the reclassifications had no effect on stockholders’ equity or net income as previously reported. Refer to Note 1—Significant Accounting Policies and Basis of Presentation.

Management uses certain financial measures that are not presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) in its analysis of the financial condition and results of operations of BancShares. Refer to the "Non-GAAP Financial Measurements" section of this MD&A for a reconciliation of these financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures in accordance with GAAP.

Recent Events

Branch Acquisition
On October 16, 2025, FCB announced that it had entered into an agreement to consummate the acquisition of 138 branches from BMO Bank N.A. (“BMO Bank”) located throughout the Midwest, Great Plains and West regions of the U.S. (the “BMO Branch Acquisition”). In connection with the BMO Branch Acquisition, FCB expects to assume approximately $5.7 billion in deposit liabilities and acquire approximately $1.1 billion in loans. We expect the transaction to close in mid-2026, subject to customary closing terms and conditions and regulatory approvals.

Debt Transactions
On September 5, 2025, the Parent Company issued and sold $600 million aggregate principal amount of its 5.600% Fixed Rate Reset Subordinated Notes due in 2035 in a public offering (the “Current Quarter Debt Issuance”). On March 12, 2025, the Parent Company issued and sold $500 million aggregate principal amount of its 5.231% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Senior Notes due in 2031 and $750 million aggregate principal amount of its 6.254% Fixed-to-Fixed Rate Subordinated Notes due in 2040 in a public offering (together with the Current Quarter Debt Issuance, the “2025 Debt Issuances”).

On June 15, 2025, the Parent Company executed a callable feature and redeemed all $350 million aggregate principal amount of its 3.375% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes due in 2030 (the “Linked Quarter Debt Redemption”).

Share Repurchase Programs
On July 25, 2025, BancShares announced that the Board of Directors (the “Board”) authorized a new share repurchase program (the “2025 SRP”), which allows BancShares to repurchase shares of its Class A common stock in an aggregate amount up to $4.0 billion through December 31, 2026. Repurchases under the 2025 SRP commenced in September 2025 upon the completion of the $3.5 billion share repurchase program announced in July 2024 (the “2024 SRP”). The total capacity remaining under the 2025 SRP was $3.7 billion as of September 30, 2025 and $3.4 billion as of October 31, 2025.

During the third quarter of 2025, we repurchased 457,350 shares of our Class A common stock for approximately $900 million. Shares repurchased during the third quarter of 2025 represented 3.79% of Class A common shares and 3.50% of total Class A and Class B common shares outstanding at June 30, 2025. From inception of the 2024 SRP through September 30, 2025, we have repurchased 1,913,633 shares of our Class A common stock for approximately $3.79 billion, representing 14.15% of Class A common shares and 13.17% of total Class A and Class B common shares outstanding as of June 30, 2024. Subsequent to September 30, 2025, BancShares purchased an additional 183,077 shares of Class A common stock through October 31, 2025 under the 2025 SRP.

Refer to Part II, Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds for additional information regarding monthly repurchase activity during the third quarter of 2025.

2025 Loan Class Changes
During the second quarter of 2025, the loan classes which were reported in the Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”) portfolio in the 2024 Form 10-K were recast to the Commercial portfolio (the “2025 Loan Class Changes”) as further discussed in Note 1—Significant Accounting Policies and Basis of Presentation. Loan and lease and allowance for loan and lease losses (“ALLL”) disclosures for all periods presented in this Form 10-Q were recast to reflect the 2025 Loan Class Changes.

Loan disclosures in the “Results by Segment” section of this MD&A were not recast as a result of the 2025 Loan Class Changes because the composition of reportable segments is separate and distinct from the identification of loan classes.

Termination of the Shared-Loss Agreement with the FDIC
On April 7, 2025, FCB and the FDIC entered into an agreement (the “Shared-Loss Termination Agreement”) to terminate the Shared-Loss Agreement (as defined in Note 2—Business Combinations). As a result of entering into the Shared-Loss Termination Agreement, all rights and obligations of the parties under the Shared-Loss Agreement terminated as of the date of the Shared-Loss Termination Agreement, including FCB’s reporting covenants and obligations related to FDIC Loss Sharing and FCB reimbursement (each as defined in Note 2—Business Combinations in our 2024 Form 10-K). The decision to enter into the Shared-Loss Termination Agreement was motivated, in part, by FCB’s determination that the likelihood of reaching the $5 billion loss threshold during the five-year period covered by the Shared-Loss Agreement was remote. Additionally, the Shared-Loss Termination Agreement eliminated the reporting responsibilities associated with the Shared-Loss Agreement. There was no impact to our consolidated balance sheets or statements of income resulting from the Shared-Loss Termination Agreement because there was no loss indemnification asset or true-up liability associated with the Shared-Loss Agreement, primarily based on evaluation of historical loss experience and the credit quality of the Covered Assets (as defined in Note 2—Business Combinations in our 2024 Form 10-K).

The risk-based capital ratio impacts resulting from the Shared-Loss Termination Agreement are discussed in the “Capital” section of this MD&A.

Changes to the Composition of Reportable Segments
We updated our segment reporting during the first quarter of 2025 as further discussed in Note 1—Significant Accounting Policies and Basis of Presentation. We transferred certain components from the SVB Commercial and General Bank segments to the Commercial Bank segment and modified our segment expense allocation methodology. Segment disclosures for 2024 periods included in this Form 10-Q were recast to reflect the segment reporting updates. Refer to Note 17—Segment Information for descriptions of segment products and services and the “Results by Segment” section of this MD&A.

Recent Economic, Industry and Regulatory Developments
Entering 2025, the Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) had reduced the benchmark federal funds rate to a range between 4.25% - 4.50% and maintained this level until its September meeting. During its September meeting, the FOMC reduced the benchmark federal funds rate by a quarter-point, to a range between 4.00% - 4.25%. On October 29, the FOMC again lowered the benchmark federal funds rate by a quarter-point, to a range between 3.75% - 4.00%.

The Trump administration has imposed, modified and paused tariffs multiple times since the beginning of 2025. Actual and threatened changes to U.S. trade policies have resulted in some countries enacting retaliatory measures. The imposition of increased tariffs and trade restrictions has contributed to uncertainty and volatility in the global financial markets. The current tariff environment is dynamic, and we are closely monitoring both the impact and potential impact of such measures on our business, our customers and on overall economic conditions in the United States.

On July 4, 2025, President Trump signed into law H.R. 1, referred to as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”). The OBBBA contains several provisions that impact corporate taxation. The enactment of the OBBBA did not have a material impact on the tax rate or results of operations.

Financial Performance Summary

The following tables in this MD&A include financial data for the three months ended September 30, 2025 (the “current quarter”), June 30, 2025 (the “linked quarter”) and September 30, 2024 (the “Prior Year Quarter”), along with the nine months ended September 30, 2025 (“current YTD”), and the nine months ended September 30, 2024 (“prior YTD”). In accordance with Item 303(c) of Regulation S-K, we focus our discussion of quarterly results of operations on changes compared to the linked quarter for the narrative discussion and analysis as we believe this provides investors and other users of our data with the most relevant information.

We focus the discussion of our financial position by comparing balances as of September 30, 2025 to December 31, 2024, however the tables also provide the linked quarter balances.

Financial highlights are summarized below. Further details are discussed in the “Results of Operations” and “Balance Sheet Analysis” sections of this MD&A.

Third Quarter Income Statement Highlights
• Net income for the current quarter was $568 million , a decrease of $7 million or 1% from $575 million for the linked quarter. Net income available to common stockholders for the current quarter was $554 million, a decrease of $7 million or 1% from $561 million for the linked quarter. Earnings per basic and diluted common share for the current quarter was $43.08, an increase from $42.36 for the linked quarter. The decrease in net income available to common stockholders was due to higher provision for credit losses, partially offset by increases in net interest income (“NII”) and noninterest income, and lower noninterest expense as further discussed below.
• NII for the current quarter was $1.73 billion, an increase of $39 million or 2% from $1.70 billion for the linked quarter, largely due to increases in interest income on loans, investment securities and interest-earning deposits at banks, partially offset by an increase in interest expense on interest-bearing deposits. PAA for the current quarter was $61 million, a decrease of $5 million from $66 million for the linked quarter.
• NIM was 3.26% in both the current quarter and linked quarter as the decrease in yield on average interest-earning assets was offset by the decrease in rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities. NIM, excluding PAA (1) was 3.15% for the current quarter, an increase of 1 basis point (“bp”) over the linked quarter.
• Noninterest income for the current quarter was $699 million , an increase of $21 million or 3% from $678 million for the linked quarter, largely due to an increase in other noninterest income of $9 million, mainly attributable to gains on the sale of other assets, as well as an increase of $6 million in client investment fees.
• Noninterest expense for the current quarter was $1.49 billion, a decrease of $9 million or 1% from $1.50 billion for the linked quarter , mainly due to decreases in other noninterest expense of $20 million and acquisition-related expenses of $10 million, partially offset by increases in maintenance and other operating lease expenses of $12 million, personnel cost of $7 million, and equipment expense of $6 million. The decrease of $20 million in other noninterest expense was mainly due to the linked quarter including $15 million resulting from a vendor dispute and an increase in litigation reserves.
• Provision for credit losses for the current quarter was $191 million, an increase of $76 million from $115 million for the linked quarter . The current quarter provision for credit losses included a provision for loan and lease losses of $214 million, partially offset by a benefit for off-balance sheet credit exposure of $23 million.
◦ The provision for loan and lease losses for the current quarter was $214 million compared to $111 million for the linked quarter. The $103 million increase in the provision for loan and lease losses was mainly attributable to an increase in net charge-offs of $115 million, as well as the impact of a $20 million reserve release in the current quarter, compared to an $8 million reserve release in the linked quarter.
▪ The $115 million increase in net charge-offs was mainly due to an $82 million charge-off on a single supply chain finance client in the Commercial Bank segment. Changes in the ALLL are discussed in the “Provision for Credit Losses” section of this MD&A.
◦ The benefit for off-balance sheet credit exposure for the current quarter was $23 million compared to a provision for the linked quarter of $4 million, resulting in a decrease in provision of $27 million, largely due to lower available balances.
• Return on average assets for the current quarter was 0.98%, a decrease of 3 bps from 1.01% for the linked quarter due to the items discussed above .

(1) NIM, excluding PAA is a non-GAAP measure. Refer to the “NII, NIM, and Interest and Fees on Loans, Excluding PAA” discussion in the “Non-GAAP Financial Measurements” section of this MD&A for further discussion.

Year-to-Date Income Statement Highlights
• Net income for the current YTD was $1.63 billion, a decrease of $451 million or 22% from $2.08 billion for the prior YTD. Net income available to common stockholders for the current YTD was $1.58 billion, a decrease of 22% from $2.03 billion for the prior YTD. Earnings per diluted common share for the current YTD was $119.70, a decrease from $140.26 for the prior YTD. The decrease in net income available to common stockholders was due to lower NII, higher noninterest expense and higher provision for credit losses, partially offset by lower income tax expense and higher noninterest income as further discussed below.
• NII for the current YTD was $5.09 billion, a decrease of $342 million or 6% from $5.43 billion for the prior YTD. NIM for the current YTD was 3.26%, a decrease of 36 bps from 3.62% for the prior YTD. The decreases in NII and NIM were mainly due to lower yields on loans and interest-earning deposits at banks, a mix shift from interest-earning deposits at banks to investment securities, a higher average balance of interest-bearing deposits, and a higher average balance and rate paid for borrowings, partially offset by a decline in the rate paid on interest-bearing deposits and a higher average balance of loans.
◦ PAA for the current YTD was $202 million, a decrease of $197 million from $399 million for the prior YTD. NIM, excluding PAA, (1) for the current YTD was 3.13%, a decrease of 22 bps from 3.35% for the prior YTD.
• Noninterest income for the current YTD was $2.01 billion, an increase of $96 million from $1.92 billion for the prior YTD, mostly due to increases in rental income on operating lease equipment of $39 million, lending-related fees of $13 million, international fees of $13 million, and wealth management services of $11 million, other noninterest income of $9 million and a favorable change of $7 million in the fair value of marketable equity securities.
• Noninterest expense for the current YTD was $4.48 billion, an increase of $266 million or 6% from $4.22 billion for the prior YTD, mostly due to increases in personnel cost of $168 million, marketing expense of $45 million, equipment expense of $36 million, other noninterest expense of $30 million and third-party processing fees of $20 million, partially offset by a decrease in acquisition-related expenses of $40 million.
• Provision for credit losses for the current YTD was $460 million, an increase of $184 million from $276 million for the prior YTD. The current YTD provision for credit losses included a provision for loan and lease losses of $473 million, partially offset by a benefit for off-balance sheet credit exposure of $13 million.
◦ The provision for loan and lease losses for the current YTD was $473 million, an increase of $162 million from $311 million for the prior YTD, mainly attributable to an increase in net charge-offs of $117 million, which included a charge-off of $82 million for a single client as discussed above, and a $45 million decline in the ALLL reserve release for the current YTD. Changes in the ALLL are discussed in the “Provision for Credit Losses” section of this MD&A.
◦ The benefit for off-balance sheet credit exposure for the current YTD was $13 million, compared to $35 million for the prior YTD. The decrease in the benefit of $22 million was mostly due to trends in the volume of unfunded commitments, partially offset by a modest shift in our weighting from the downside to baseline economic scenario in the linked quarter as further discussed in the “ALLL Methodology” section of this MD&A.
• Income tax expense for the current YTD was $534 million, a decrease of $245 million from $779 million for the prior YTD, primarily due to lower income before income taxes and a lower effective income tax rate (“ETR”).
• Return on average assets for the current YTD was 0.95% compared to 1.27% for the prior YTD due to the decrease in net income explained above .

(1) NIM, excluding PAA is a non-GAAP measure. Refer to the “NII, NIM, and Interest and Fees on Loans, Excluding PAA” discussion in the “Non-GAAP Financial Measurements” section of this MD&A for further discussion.

Balance Sheet Highlights
• Loans and leases at September 30, 2025 were $144.76 billion, an increase of $4.54 billion or 3% from $140.22 billion at December 31, 2024. Loan growth of $3.26 billion in the SVB Commercial segment was concentrated in Global Fund Banking, partially offset by a decline in Tech and Healthcare. Loan growth in the Commercial Bank segment of $943 million was mainly in our industry verticals, primarily TMT and Healthcare, as well as Equipment Finance and Working Capital Solutions, which includes our factoring business. Loan growth of $338 million in the General Bank segment was primarily in Wealth.
• Investment securities at September 30, 2025 were $45.12 billion, an increase of $1.03 billion or 2% from $44.09 billion at December 31, 2024, as the purchase of short duration available for sale U.S. treasury and agency mortgage-backed securities were partially offset by maturities and paydowns.
• Deposits at September 30, 2025 were $163.19 billion, an increase of $7.96 billion or 5% from $155.23 billion at December 31, 2024. As shown in Table 3 below, the increase from December 31, 2024 was mainly attributable to deposit growth in Corporate of $3.49 billion (which primarily includes the Direct Bank), the SVB Commercial segment of $3.37 billion, and the General Bank segment of $1.64 billion, partially offset by a decline of $524 million in the Commercial Bank segment. Noninterest-bearing deposits grew by $4.12 billion or 10.7% compared to December 31, 2024 and represented 26.2% of total deposits as of September 30, 2025, compared to 24.9% at December 31, 2024.
• Borrowings at September 30, 2025 were $38.68 billion, an increase of $1.62 billion or 4% from $37.05 billion at December 31, 2024, primarily due to the 2025 Debt Issuances with aggregate principal amounts totaling $1.85 billion, partially offset by the $350 million Linked Quarter Debt Redemption.
• The ALLL at September 30, 2025 was $1.65 billion, a decrease of $24 million from $1.68 billion at December 31, 2024, as discussed above in the “Year-to-Date Income Statement Highlights.” The ALLL as a percentage of loans was 1.14% at September 30, 2025, a decrease of 6 bps from 1.20% at December 31, 2024.
• At September 30, 2025, BancShares remained well capitalized with a total risk-based capital ratio of 14.05%, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 12.15%, a common equity Tier 1 (“CET1”) ratio of 11.65% and a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 9.34%.

Funding, Liquidity and Capital Overview

Deposit Composition and Trends
We fund our business primarily through deposits. Deposits represented approximately 81% of total funding at September 30, 2025. The following table summarizes the composition, average size and uninsured percentages of our deposits:

Table 2
Select Deposit Data

Deposits as of September 30, 2025
Ending Balance (in millions) Average Size (in thousands) Uninsured %
General Bank segment $ 74,596  $ 37 36  %
Commercial Bank segment 2,978  624 82
SVB Commercial segment 39,891  562 68
Corporate and Rail segment (1)
45,725  59 8
Total $ 163,190  57 37

(1) The average size is reflective of the Direct Bank deposits and excludes brokered deposits and rail.

The General Bank segment mainly includes deposits in our Branch Network, which deploys a relationship-based approach to deposit gathering. The Commercial Bank segment includes deposits of commercial customers, and the SVB Commercial segment includes deposits related to its commercial customer base. Deposits in Corporate mainly included $45.15 billion in our Direct Bank, with the remainder including brokered and other deposits.

As displayed in the table above, the average size of deposits varies across our business segments. The uninsured percentage is the percentage of uninsured deposits to total deposits at period end for the respective segments and Corporate. Total uninsured deposits were approximately $59.75 billion or 37% of total deposits at September 30, 2025 and $59.51 billion or 38% at December 31, 2024.

Deposit trends for the segments and Corporate at September 30, 2025 compared to December 31, 2024 are discussed below:
• Corporate deposit growth of $3.49 billion was mainly in the Direct Bank, which consists primarily of savings accounts.
• SVB Commercial segment deposits increased $3.37 billion, despite the strategic decision to move $2.4 billion in select cash sweep deposits to off-balance sheet client funds during the first quarter of 2025. Deposit growth was mainly in noninterest-bearing deposits.
• General Bank segment deposit growth of $1.64 billion was primarily in the Branch Network, largely in money market and noninterest-bearing deposits.
• Commercial Bank segment deposit decline of $524 million was mostly in noninterest-bearing deposits.

Refer to the “Results by Segment” for a discussion of deposits at September 30, 2025 compared to June 30, 2025.

Liquidity Position
We strive to maintain a strong liquidity position and our risk appetite for liquidity is low. At September 30, 2025, we had $61.92 billion in high-quality liquid assets consisting of $23.92 billion in cash and interest-earning deposits at banks (primarily held at the Federal Reserve Bank (“FRB”)) and $38.01 billion in high-quality liquid securities (“HQLS”). HQLS are mainly comprised of U.S. agency mortgage-backed and U.S. Treasury investment securities. Additionally, we have unused borrowing capacity with the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) and FRB of $18.02 billion and $13.33 billion, respectively.

In connection with the SVBB Acquisition (as defined and described in Note 2—Business Combinations), FCB and the FDIC, as lender and as collateral agent, entered into the Advance Facility Agreement (as defined and described in Note 2—Business Combinations). The draw period under the Advance Facility Agreement ended March 27, 2025, as of which date, FCB had no outstanding amounts under the facility. Subsequently, we increased our borrowing capacity under agreements with the FRB through expansion of the eligible loan population to targeted loans historically not pledged to the FRB. Refer to the “Liquidity Risk” section of this MD&A for further discussion.

Also in connection with the SVBB Acquisition, FCB issued a five-year, 3.50% fixed rate Purchase Money Note (as defined in Note 2—Business Combinations), which had a carrying value of $35.85 billion at September 30, 2025. While scheduled principal payments are not required until maturity in March 2028, FCB may voluntarily prepay principal without a premium or penalty. We will continue to monitor the interest rate environment and assess whether any voluntary prepayments are prudent considering the fixed rate of 3.50%. Potential sources that could fund voluntary prepayments or the amount due at maturity include excess liquidity (primarily comprised of interest-earning deposits at banks and proceeds from maturities and paydowns of investment securities), FHLB advances, deposit growth, and issuance of unsecured debt or other borrowings. At the time of voluntary prepayment or maturity, the interest rates for the potential interest-bearing sources of repayment could be higher than the 3.50% rate.

Investment Securities Duration
At September 30, 2025, our investment securities portfolio primarily consisted of debt securities available for sale and held to maturity as summarized below. We manage debt security market risk by monitoring the average duration of our investment securities portfolio. The duration of our investment securities was approximately 2.5 years at September 30, 2025. The investment securities available for sale portfolio had an average duration of 2.1 years and the held to maturity portfolio had an average duration of 4.2 years. Refer to the “Interest-earning Assets—Investment Securities” section of this MD&A and Note 3—Investment Securities for further information.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin

NII is affected by changes in interest rates and changes in the amount and composition of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Interest income and expense and the respective yields and rates include amortization of premiums, accretion of discounts, and impacts from hedging activities.

The following tables present the average balances of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities with the associated yields and rates, interest income and expense, and changes therein due to changes in volume and yields or rates. Changes in interest income and expense due to changes in (i) volume (average balances of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities) and (ii) yields or rates are based on the following:
• The change in NII due to volume is calculated as the change in average balance multiplied by the yield or rate from the prior period.
• The change in NII due to yield or rate is calculated as the change in yield or rate multiplied by the average balance from the prior period.
• The change in NII due to changes in both volume and yield or rate (i.e., portfolio mix) is calculated as the change in rate multiplied by the change in volume. This component is allocated between the changes due to volume and yield or rate based on the ratio each component bears to the absolute dollar amounts of their total.
• Tax equivalent NII was not materially different from NII, therefore we present NII in our analysis.

NII and NIM (Current Quarter Compared to Linked Quarter)
The table above quantifies the increases or decreases for the current quarter compared to the linked quarter for NII and NIM, as well as average balances of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, and the respective yields earned and rates paid. The main reasons for the increases and decreases are explained below:

• NII for the current quarter was $1.73 billion, an increase of $39 million or 2%, from $1.70 billion for the linked quarter. NII, excluding PAA, (1) was $1.67 billion for the current quarter, an increase of $44 million from $1.63 billion, for the linked quarter. The main reasons for the increases in NII and NII, excluding PAA, (1) are explained below:
◦ Interest and fees on loans for the current quarter was $2.30 billion, an increase of $30 million or 1%, from $2.27 billion for the linked quarter. The increase was mainly due to a higher day count and a higher average balance, partially offset by a modest decline in yield.
▪ Interest and fees on loans, excluding loan PAA, (1) were $2.23 billion for the current quarter, an increase of $34 million, from $2.20 billion for the linked quarter .
▪ Loan PAA was $71 million for the current quarter, a decrease of $4 million, from $75 million for the linked quarter .
◦ Interest income on investment securities (including securities purchased under agreements to resell) for the current quarter was $433 million, an increase of $14 million or 4%, from $419 million for the linked quarter, due to increases in the average balance, yield and day count.
◦ Interest income on interest-earning deposits at banks for the current quarter was $265 million, an increase of $9 million or 4%, from $256 million for the linked quarter, due to a higher average balance and a higher day count, partially offset by a slight decline in yield.
◦ Interest expense on borrowings for the current quarter was $353 million, a decrease of $3 million or 1%, from $356 million for the linked quarter, due to a modest decline in the average balance and rate paid as the Linked Quarter Debt Redemption impacted the average balance and rate for the entire current quarter, partially offset by the Current Quarter Debt Issuance. We expect interest expense on borrowings to increase in the fourth quarter of 2025 as the Current Quarter Debt Issuance will impact the average balance and rate for the entire quarter. Refer to the “Recent Events” section of this MD&A for further discussion.
◦ Interest expense on interest-bearing deposits for the current quarter was $911 million, an increase of $17 million, from $894 million for the linked quarter, as the impacts of a higher average balance and a higher day count were partially offset by a lower rate paid.
• NIM was 3.26% in both the current quarter and linked quarter as the decrease in yield on average interest-earning assets was offset by the decrease in rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities. NIM, excluding PAA, (1) was 3.15% for the current quarter, an increase of 1 bps, from 3.14% for the linked quarter .
◦ The yield on average interest-earning assets for the current quarter was 5.64%, a decrease of 3 bps, from 5.67% for the linked quarter, mainly due to a lower loan yield and a decline in loan PAA.
◦ The rate paid on average interest-bearing liabilities for the current quarter was 3.16%, a decrease of 3 bps, from 3.19% for the linked quarter, primarily due to a lower rate paid on interest-bearing deposits, partially offset by the impact of a higher average balance of interest-bearing deposits.

Refer to the “Financial Performance Summary—Balance Sheet Highlights,” “Interest-earning Assets,” and “Interest-bearing Liabilities” sections of this MD&A for discussions of balance sheet trends that impact average interest-earning assets, average interest-bearing liabilities, and the related yields earned and rates paid.

NII and NIM (Current YTD Compared to Prior YTD)
The table above quantifies the increases or decreases for the current YTD compared to the prior YTD for NII and NIM, as well as average balances of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, and the respective yields earned and rates paid. The main reasons for the increases and decreases are explained below:

• NII for the current YTD was $5.09 billion, a decrease of $342 million or 6%, from $5.43 billion for the prior YTD. NII, excluding PAA, (1) was $4.89 billion for the current YTD, a decrease of $145 million, from $5.04 billion for the prior YTD. The main reasons for the decreases in NII and NII, excluding PAA, (1) are explained below:
◦ Interest income on interest-earning deposits at banks for the current YTD was $766 million, a decrease of $410 million or 35%, from $1.18 billion for the prior YTD, due to a lower average balance and a decline in the federal funds rate.
◦ Interest and fees on loans for the current YTD was $6.81 billion, a decrease of $400 million or 6%, from $7.21 billion for the prior YTD, mainly due to a lower yield and lower loan PAA, partially offset by the impact of a higher average balance.
• Interest and fees on loans, excluding loan PAA, (1) was $6.58 billion for the current YTD, a decrease of $215 million, from $6.79 billion for the prior YTD .
• Loan PAA was $230 million in the current YTD, a decrease of $185 million, from $415 million for the prior YTD.
◦ Interest expense on borrowings for the current YTD was $1.05 billion, an increase of $37 million or 4%, from $1.01 billion for the prior YTD, primarily due to a higher rate paid and a higher average, reflecting the 2025 Debt Issuances.
◦ Interest income on investment securities (including securities purchased under agreements to resell) for the current YTD was $1.27 billion, an increase of $296 million or 31%, from $970 million for the prior YTD, mainly due to a higher average balance and a higher yield.
◦ Interest expense on interest-bearing deposits for the current YTD was $2.70 billion, a decrease of $209 million or 7%, from $2.91 billion for the prior YTD, as a lower rate paid was partially offset by the impact of a higher average balance.
• NIM for the current YTD was 3.26%, a decrease of 36 bps, from 3.62% for the prior YTD. The decline in NIM was mainly due to the impacts of lower yields on loans and interest-earning deposits at banks, a mix shift from interest-earning deposits at banks to investment securities, a higher average balance of interest-bearing deposits, lower PAA, and a higher average balance and rate paid on borrowings, partially offset by the impacts of a decline in the rate paid on interest-bearing deposits and a higher average balance of loans. NIM, excluding PAA, (1) was 3.13% for the current YTD, a decrease of 22 bps, from 3.35% for the prior YTD.
◦ The yield on average interest-earning assets for the current YTD was 5.66%, a decrease of 56 bps, from 6.22% for the prior YTD, mainly due to a decline in yield on loans and interest-earning deposits at banks, as well as lower loan PAA, partially offset by a higher yield on investment securities.
◦ The rate paid on average interest-bearing liabilities for the current YTD was 3.19%, a decrease of 34 bps, from 3.53% for the prior YTD, primarily due to a lower rate paid on interest-bearing deposits, partially offset by the impacts of a higher average balance of interest-bearing deposits, and a higher average balance and rate paid for borrowings as a result of the 2025 Debt Issuances.

Provision for credit losses $ 191  $ 115  $ 117  $ 76  66  % $ 460  $ 276  $ 184  67  %

The provision for credit losses for the current quarter was $191 million, an increase of $76 million, from $115 million for the linked quarter . The current quarter provision for credit losses included a provision for loan and lease losses of $214 million, partially offset by a benefit for off-balance sheet credit exposure of $23 million.
• The provision for loan and lease losses for the current quarter was $214 million, an increase of $103 million, from $111 million for the linked quarter, mainly attributable to an increase in net charge-offs of $115 million, as well as the impact of a $20 million reserve release in the current quarter, compared to a $8 million reserve release in the linked quarter.
◦ The $115 million increase in net charge-offs was mainly due to an $82 million charge-off on a single supply chain finance client in the Commercial Bank segment.
◦ The decrease of $20 million in the ALLL at September 30, 2025, compared to June 30, 2025, primarily reflected improvements in the economic outlook and other changes, including the elimination of reserves related to Hurricane Helene, partially offset by higher specific reserves for individually evaluated loans, and growth in global fund banking loans which have a lower loss rate relative to our other portfolios.
• The benefit for off-balance sheet credit exposure for the current quarter was $23 million compared to a provision for the linked quarter of $4 million, resulting in a decrease in provision of $27 million, largely due to lower available balances.

The provision for credit losses for the current YTD was $460 million, an increase of $184 million, from $276 million for the prior YTD. The current YTD provision for credit losses included a provision for loan and lease losses of $473 million, partially offset by a benefit for off-balance sheet credit exposure of $13 million.
• The provision for loan and lease losses for the current YTD was $473 million, an increase of $162 million, from $311 million for the prior YTD, mainly attributable to an increase in net charge-offs of $117 million, which included a charge-off of $82 million for a single client as discussed above, and a decline in the ALLL reserve release in the current YTD of $45 million as a result of a $24 million reserve release in the current YTD compared to a $69 million reserve release in the prior YTD.
◦ The decrease of $24 million in the ALLL at September 30, 2025, compared to December 31, 2024, reflected the changes discussed above in the linked quarter comparison, and a modest shift in our weighting from the downside to baseline economic scenario in the linked quarter as further discussed in the “ALLL Methodology” section of this MD&A, partially offset by the impact of loan growth.
• The benefit for off-balance sheet credit exposure for the current YTD was $13 million, a decrease of $22 million, compared to $35 million for the prior YTD. The lower benefit of $22 million was mostly due to trends in the volume of unfunded commitments, partially offset by a modest shift in our weighting from the downside to baseline economic scenario in the linked quarter as further discussed in the “ALLL Methodology” section of this MD&A.

The ALLL and net charge-offs are further discussed in the “Risk Management—Credit Risk” section of this MD&A and in Note 5—Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses.

Noninterest income for the current quarter was $699 million, an increase of $21 million or 3%, from $678 million for the linked quarter, primarily due to the following:
• The favorable change of $11 million in the fair value of marketable equity securities was due to higher market prices for the underlying securities.
• The increase in other noninterest income of $9 million was mainly attributable to gains on the sale of other assets.
• The increase of $6 million in client investment fees was mostly due to a higher average balance of client funds.
• The decrease of $5 million in gain on sale of leasing equipment was primarily the result of lower rail equipment sale margin, due to the railcar types sold.

Noninterest income for the current YTD was $2.01 billion, an increase of $96 million or 5%, from $1.92 billion for the prior YTD as further discussed below:
• The increase in rental income on operating lease equipment of $39 million was mainly the result of growth in the railcar portfolio.
• The increase in lending-related fees of $13 million was mostly in syndication fees.
• The increase in international fees of $13 million reflected higher volumes and commissions on foreign currency exchange transactions.
• The increase in wealth management services of $11 million was due to growth in assets under management.
• The increase in other noninterest income of $9 million was largely due a higher favorable change in the fair value of non-marketable equity securities and customer derivative positions, partially offset by a write-down of a held for sale asset in the current YTD.
• The favorable change of $7 million in the fair value of marketable equity securities was due to higher market prices for the underlying securities.

Noninterest expense for the current quarter was $1.49 billion, a decrease of $9 million or 1%, from $1.50 billion for the linked quarter as further discussed below:
• The decrease in other noninterest expense of $20 million was mainly due to the linked quarter including accruals for $15 million resulting from a vendor dispute and an increase in litigation reserves.
• The decrease in acquisition-related expenses of $10 million is summarized in Table 13 below.
• The increase in maintenance and other operating lease expenses of $12 million is discussed in the “Results by Segment—Rail” section of this MD&A.
• The increase in personnel cost of $7 million was due to an additional payroll day and net staff additions partially offset by a decline in temporary contractor costs.
• The increase in equipment expense of $6 million was mainly due to higher software-related costs.

Noninterest expense for the current YTD was $4.48 billion, an increase of $266 million or 6%, from $4.22 billion for the prior YTD as further discussed below:
• The increase in personnel cost of $168 million was mainly due to net staff additions, annual merit increases, and promotions.
• The increase in marketing expense of $45 million was primarily due to marketing for Direct Bank deposits.
• The increase in equipment expense of $36 million was mostly due to higher software-related costs, including accelerated depreciation.
• The increase in other noninterest expense of $30 million was largely due to the linked quarter accruals of $15 million discussed above.
• The increase of $20 million in third-party processing fees was due to higher transaction volume and additional services.
• The increase of $16 million in maintenance and other operating lease expenses are discussed in the “Results by Segment—Rail” section of this MD&A.
• The decrease in acquisition-related expenses of $40 million is summarized in Table 13 below.
• The decrease of $10 million in professional fees was due to lower consulting services and legal fees.

Effective income tax rate 24.4  % 24.1  % 26.8  % 24.7  % 27.3  %

The ETR was 24.4% for the current quarter compared to 24.1% for the linked quarter. The modestly higher ETR for the current quarter was mostly due to the revaluation of the deferred tax liability as a result of a change in state law enacted in the linked quarter. The ETR was 24.7% for the current YTD compared to 27.3% for the prior YTD. The decrease for the current YTD ETR compared to the prior YTD was primarily due to increased tax credits and a reduction in the state and local income tax rate.

The ETR is impacted by a number of factors, including the relative mix of domestic and international earnings, effects of changes in enacted tax laws, adjustments to valuation allowances, and discrete items. The ETR in future periods may vary from the current quarter ETR due to changes in these factors.

BancShares monitors and evaluates the potential impact of current events on the estimates used to establish income tax expense and income tax liabilities. On a periodic basis, we evaluate our income tax positions based on current tax law and positions taken by various tax auditors within the jurisdictions where BancShares is required to file income tax returns, as well as potential or pending audits or assessments by tax auditors. Refer to Note 15—Income Taxes for additional information.

Refer to the “Executive Overview—Recent Events” for a brief discussion on tax reform legislation enacted on July 4, 2025.

RESULTS BY SEGMENT

We made changes to the composition of our reportable segments during the first quarter of 2025 as further discussed in Note 1—Significant Accounting Policies and Basis of Presentation and briefly summarized in the “Recent Events” section earlier in this MD&A. Segment disclosures for 2024 periods included in this Form 10-Q were recast to reflect the changes.

BancShares’ segments include the General Bank, the Commercial Bank, SVB Commercial, and Rail. All other financial information not included in the segments is reported in the Corporate section of the segment disclosures. Under our segment expense allocation methodology, allocated expenses increase noninterest expense of the applicable segment(s), with an offsetting decrease to Corporate noninterest expense. “All other noninterest expense” in the segment reporting tables below includes the effect of allocated expenses, resulting in a reduction to expense (or “Contra Expense”) for Corporate.

Refer to Note 17—Segment Information for descriptions of segment products and services.

General Bank segment net income for the current quarter increased $26 million compared to the linked quarter, primarily due to higher NII and lower provision for credit losses .
• The $22 million increase in NII was largely due to a lower rate paid on interest-bearing deposits, along with a higher loan yield, and the impact of loan growth.
• The $12 million decrease in provision for credit losses reflected a reserve release, largely in residential mortgage and credit card loans.

General Bank segment loans were $65.23 billion at September 30, 2025, an increase of $238 million compared to $64.99 billion at June 30, 2025, as growth was spread amongst various portfolios.

General Bank segment deposits were $74.60 billion at September 30, 2025, an increase of $1.10 billion compared to $73.50 billion at June 30, 2025, as growth was primarily concentrated in our Branch Network and Wealth. Deposit growth was in money market and noninterest-bearing checking, partially offset by lower time deposits.
