Key Terms

purchase accounting accretion, non-GAAP financial measures, nonaccrual loans, net charge-offs, +1 more
5 terms
purchase accounting accretion financial
"excluding PAA (or purchase accounting accretion) are non-GAAP financial measures"
Purchase accounting accretion describes how an acquisition’s required accounting adjustments change a company’s reported earnings per share after the deal. When the purchase price is reallocated to the acquired assets and liabilities, certain items (like tax effects, depreciation or amortization) are recorded differently, and those changes can make reported earnings per share rise over time — showing whether the transaction boosts or dilutes per-share results. Investors use it like checking whether two merged household budgets will increase the amount left over each month after relabeling expenses.
non-GAAP financial measures financial
"excluding PAA (or purchase accounting accretion) are non-GAAP financial measures"
Non-GAAP financial measures are numbers companies use to show their financial performance that exclude certain expenses or income. They help investors see how the company might perform without one-time costs or other unusual items, giving a different perspective from official reports. However, since they can be adjusted, they don’t always tell the full story and should be looked at alongside standard financial figures.
nonaccrual loans financial
"Nonaccrual loans were $1.45 billion (0.96% of loans) at June 30, 2026"
Nonaccrual loans are loans a lender has stopped counting toward interest income because the borrower is overdue or unlikely to pay; the lender only records cash payments received and may set aside extra funds to cover potential losses. For investors, a rising number or amount of nonaccrual loans signals weaker credit quality, lower future interest revenue and larger potential write-downs — similar to pausing expected subscription income when many customers stop paying.
net charge-offs financial
"Net charge-offs were $108 million (0.29% of average loans) for the current quarter"
Net charge-offs are the amount of loans or credit a lender removes from its books as uncollectible after subtracting any money later recovered from previously written-off accounts. Think of it like a store writing off unpaid tabs but getting back a few dollars later — the net figure shows the real loss. Investors watch this to judge a lender’s loan quality, future profits and how much capital may be needed to cover bad debts.
net interest margin financial
"Net interest margin ("NIM") was 3.10% for the current quarter"
Net interest margin measures how much a bank earns from lending and investing compared with what it pays for funding, expressed as a percentage of its interest-earning assets. Think of it like a grocery store’s markup: it shows the gap between buying cost and selling price per dollar of goods — here, the cost is interest paid and the sale is interest received. Investors watch it because a higher margin usually means a bank is more profitable and better at managing interest rate and credit conditions.

RALEIGH, N.C., July 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- First Citizens BancShares, Inc. ("BancShares") (Nasdaq: FCNCA) reported earnings for the second quarter of 2026.

First Citizens BancShares

Chairman and CEO Frank B. Holding, Jr. said: "Solid return metrics during the second quarter continued to support our strong capital and liquidity positions, driven by balanced loan and deposit growth, resilient credit quality, and disciplined expense management.

We returned $600 million to our stockholders through share repurchases and further optimized our balance sheet by prepaying another $2.5 billion of the Purchase Money Note."

BMO BRANCH ACQUISITION

On October 16, 2025, First-Citizens Bank & Trust Company ("First Citizens Bank"), the wholly owned banking subsidiary of BancShares, announced that it had entered into an agreement to acquire 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, First Citizens Bank expects to assume approximately $5.3 billion in deposits and acquire approximately $700 million in loans. BancShares expects the transaction to be completed during the third quarter of 2026.

  • Net interest income was $1.66 billion for the current quarter, an increase of $35 million from the linked quarter. Net interest income, excluding PAA, was $1.61 billion, an increase of $26 million from the linked quarter.
    • Interest income on loans increased $47 million, mainly due to a higher yield, a higher average balance, and a $7 million increase in loan PAA.
    • Interest expense on borrowings decreased $18 million, mainly due to a decline in the average balance as we repaid an additional $2.5 billion of the Purchase Money Note.
    • Interest income on investment securities increased $17 million due to a higher yield and a higher average balance.
    • Interest expense on interest-bearing deposits increased $48 million due to a higher average balance and a higher rate paid.
  • Net interest margin ("NIM") was 3.10% for the current quarter, an increase of 1 basis point from the linked quarter. NIM, excluding PAA, was 3.01% in both the current and linked quarters.
    • The yield on average interest-earning assets was 5.34%, an increase of 4 basis points from the linked quarter, mainly due to higher yields on and average balances of loans and investment securities.
    • The rate paid on average interest-bearing liabilities was 2.95%, an increase of 2 basis points from the linked quarter, primarily due to increases in the average balance of and rate paid on interest-bearing deposits, partially offset by the impact of a lower average balance of borrowings.

NONINTEREST INCOME AND EXPENSE

  • Noninterest income was $776 million, compared to $692 million in the linked quarter, an increase of $84 million. Adjusted noninterest income was $586 million, an increase of $66 million from the linked quarter.
    • The increases in noninterest income and adjusted noninterest income were primarily due to the following:
      • Other noninterest income increased $50 million, mainly attributable to a $27 million increase in the fair value of derivatives and a $17 million gain on sale of tax credit investments.
      • Client investment fees increased $6 million due to higher volume and average balances.
      • Lending-related fees increased $4 million, largely due to line of credit fees.
      • Deposit fees and service charges increased $4 million, largely attributable to overdraft fees.
    • Additionally, the fair value adjustment on marketable equity securities increased $12 million compared to the linked quarter.
  • Noninterest expense was $1.55 billion, an increase of $15 million from the linked quarter. Adjusted noninterest expense was $1.35 billion, an increase of $16 million from the linked quarter. The increases in noninterest expense and adjusted noninterest expense were primarily due to the following:
    • Marketing expense increased $15 million, mostly due to marketing promotions for Direct Bank deposits.
    • Other noninterest expense increased $8 million, largely driven by the timing of charitable contributions.
    • Third-party processing fees and equipment expense increased $7 million and $5 million, respectively, as we continue to invest in our digital infrastructure, data center modernization, and client-facing capabilities.
    • The increases above were partially offset by declines in personnel cost and adjusted personnel cost of $25 million and $21 million, respectively, largely driven by lower incentive compensation and seasonal declines as employees reach annual benefit limits, partially offset by merit increases, one additional payroll day, and higher health insurance claims.
    • The remaining net increase in noninterest expense and adjusted noninterest expense was spread amongst various noninterest expense line items.

BALANCE SHEET SUMMARY

  • Loans and leases were $151.03 billion at June 30, 2026, an increase of $2.34 billion or 1.6% compared to $148.69 billion at March 31, 2026, primarily due to loan growth of $2.37 billion in the Commercial Bank segment, mainly concentrated in Global Fund Banking.
  • Total investment securities were $43.56 billion at June 30, 2026, an increase of $571 million since March 31, 2026. Purchases during the current quarter remained concentrated in available for sale U.S. treasury and agency mortgage-backed securities.
  • Deposits were $173.43 billion at June 30, 2026, an increase of $2.59 billion or 1.5% since March 31, 2026, primarily attributable to growth in Corporate deposits of $4.28 billion, which includes Direct Bank and brokered deposits. Deposit growth was partially offset by a decline of $1.50 billion in Commercial Bank segment deposits.
  • Noninterest-bearing deposits decreased by $1.13 billion (2.6% from the linked quarter) and represented 24.5% of total deposits as of June 30, 2026, compared to 25.5% at March 31, 2026. The cost of average total deposits was 2.07% for the current quarter, compared to 2.04% for the linked quarter.
  • Borrowings were $32.19 billion at June 30, 2026, a decrease of $1.77 billion compared to $33.96 billion at March 31, 2026, mainly due to a $2.50 billion prepayment of the Purchase Money Note, partially offset by the issuance of $750 million of senior notes during the current quarter.
  • The Purchase Money Note declined from $35.85 billion at September 30, 2025 to $28.42 billion at June 30, 2026.
  • Funding mix improved as deposits represented 84.3% of total funding at June 30, 2026 compared to 83.4% at March 31, 2026.
  • Interest-earning deposits at banks were $21.13 billion at June 30, 2026, a decrease of $2.06 billion compared to $23.19 billion at March 31, 2026, a function of the balance sheet trends discussed above.

PROVISION FOR CREDIT LOSSES AND CREDIT QUALITY

  • Benefit for credit losses was $10 million for the current quarter, compared to a provision for credit losses of $72 million for the linked quarter. The current quarter included a provision for loan and lease losses of $34 million that was more than offset by a benefit for off-balance sheet credit exposure of $44 million.
    • The provision for loan and lease losses for the current quarter was $34 million, compared to $103 million for the linked quarter. The $69 million decrease was mainly attributable to the impact of a $74 million reserve release in the current quarter compared to an $8 million reserve release in the linked quarter, partially offset by a decline of $3 million in net charge-offs.
      • The $74 million reserve release in the current quarter was largely driven by lower specific reserves, improvements in credit quality including updates to certain models used to estimate the allowance, changes in the macroeconomic scenarios, and growth concentrated in capital call lines which have a significantly lower loss rate relative to our other loan portfolios.
      • The $8 million reserve release in the linked quarter was driven by loan growth concentrated in capital call lines and changes in the macroeconomic scenarios, partially offset by higher reserves for individually evaluated loans.
    • The benefit for off-balance sheet credit exposure was $44 million, an increase of $12 million from $32 million for the linked quarter, primarily due to the same drivers discussed above for the provision for loan and lease losses.
  • Net charge-offs were $108 million (0.29% of average loans) for the current quarter, compared to $111 million (0.30% of average loans) for the linked quarter.
  • Nonaccrual loans were $1.45 billion (0.96% of loans) at June 30, 2026, compared to $1.43 billion (0.96% of loans) at March 31, 2026.
  • The allowance for loan and lease losses totaled $1.48 billion at June 30, 2026, compared to $1.56 billion at March 31, 2026. The allowance for loan and lease losses as a percentage of loans was 0.98% at June 30, 2026, compared to 1.05% at March 31, 2026.

CAPITAL AND LIQUIDITY

  • Capital ratios remained above regulatory requirements. The estimated total risk-based capital, Tier 1 risk-based capital, Common equity Tier 1 risk-based capital, and Tier 1 leverage ratios were 13.37%, 11.73%, 10.77%, and 9.22%, respectively, at June 30, 2026.
  • During the current quarter, we repurchased 298,907 shares of our Class A common stock for $600 million and paid a dividend of $2.10 per share on our Class A and Class B common stock. Shares repurchased during the current quarter represented 2.80% of Class A common shares and 2.56% of total Class A and Class B common shares outstanding at March 31, 2026.
    • From inception of the 2024 Share Repurchase Plan through June 30, 2026, we have repurchased 3,141,855 shares of our Class A common stock for $6.19 billion, representing 23.23% of Class A common shares and 21.62% of total Class A and Class B common shares outstanding as of June 30, 2024.

NON-GAAP MEASURES

Certain measures in this release, including those referenced as "adjusted" or "excluding PAA," are "non-GAAP," meaning they are numerical measures of BancShares' financial performance, financial position or cash flows that are not presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. ("GAAP") because they exclude or include amounts or are adjusted in some way so as to be different than the most direct comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in BancShares' statements of income, balance sheets or statements of cash flows and also are not codified in U.S. banking regulations currently applicable to BancShares. BancShares management believes that non-GAAP financial measures, when reviewed in conjunction with GAAP financial information, can provide transparency about or an alternative means of assessing its operating results, financial position or cash flows to its investors, analysts and management. These non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, and not superior to or a substitute for, GAAP measures. Each non-GAAP measure is reconciled to the most comparable GAAP measure in the non-GAAP reconciliation.
