How this balance works

Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.

It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.

Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

cet1 capital ratio regulatory

"Common equity Tier 1 ("CET1") capital ratio"

The CET1 capital ratio measures a bank’s core equity (common shares and retained earnings) as a share of its assets after those assets are adjusted for how risky they are. It shows how big a financial cushion the bank has to absorb losses without needing outside help, so investors use it like a fuel gauge: higher ratios mean more protection against bad loans or market shocks and lower chances of forced capital raises or regulatory action.

non-gaap financial

"Non-GAAP Measures"

Non-GAAP refers to financial measures that companies use to show their earnings or performance without including certain expenses or income that are often added back to give a different picture. It matters because it can make a company's results look better or more favorable, but it may also hide important costs, so investors need to look at both GAAP (official rules) and non-GAAP numbers to get a full understanding.

View in glossary

net interest margin financial

"Net interest margin | | 3.65 %"

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.

net charge-offs financial

"Net charge-offs as % of average loans (annualized)"

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.

nonaccrual loans financial

"Nonaccrual loans as % of loans outstanding"

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.

Financial Highlights

• Taxable-equivalent net interest income increased nominally in the recent quarter as compared with the second quarter of 2026 reflecting an additional day, partially offset by lower interest income on nonaccrual loans.
• Average loans grew $2.6 billion in the recent quarter reflecting higher average commercial real estate loan balances of $1.6 billion, consumer loan balances of $634 million and residential real estate loan balances of $367 million.
• Higher noninterest income in the recent quarter reflects an increase in residential mortgage banking revenues, partially offset by a decrease in capital markets and advisory revenues and a lower distribution from M&T's investment in Bayview Lending Group LLC ("BLG").
• Noninterest expense reflects increases in outside data processing and software costs and professional and other services expense as well as higher personnel costs from an additional working day in the recent quarter.
• The allowance for loan losses as a percent of total loans declined 2 basis points to 1.51% at September 30, 2026.
• In the recent quarter, M&T repurchased 1.3 million shares of its common stock at a total cost of $323 million. M&T's CET1 capital ratio is estimated to be 10.16% at September 30, 2026.

Financial Reporting Matters

As reported on M&T's Form 8-K dated September 28, 2026, effective for the third quarter of 2026 M&T made certain changes and reclassifications to Other income categories presented in its Consolidated Statement of Income. Also effective for the third quarter of 2026, M&T began separately presenting loans held for sale from loans held for investment in its Consolidated Balance Sheet and its Average Balance Sheet and Annualized Taxable-equivalent Rates disclosures. Accordingly, annualized taxable-equivalent rates for each impacted loan category and certain loan-based credit quality ratios exclude loans held for sale. Additionally, as reported in M&T's Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, in conjunction with the implementation of a new general ledger platform during the second quarter of 2026, the Company modified its methodology for calculating annualized taxable-equivalent rates for certain earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, including certain average deposit balances. All periods presented herein reflect those changes.

M&T consistently provides supplemental reporting of its results on a "net operating" or "tangible" basis, from which M&T excludes the after-tax effect of amortization of core deposit and other intangible assets (and the related goodwill and core deposit and other intangible asset balances, net of applicable deferred tax amounts) and expenses associated with merging acquired operations into M&T (when incurred), since such items are considered by management to be "nonoperating" in nature.

Taxable-equivalent net interest income in the recent quarter rose nominally from the second quarter of 2026 reflecting an additional day, lower interest income on nonaccrual loans and loan growth funded by interest-bearing deposits as the Company reduced its average short-term borrowings. Taxable-equivalent net interest income increased $32 million, or 2%, as compared with the year-earlier third quarter reflecting lower rates paid on average interest-bearing deposits and growth in average loans and investment securities, partially offset by lower yields received on loans.

Average interest-bearing liabilities in the recent quarter rose $1.9 billion from the second quarter of 2026 reflecting growth in average interest-bearing deposits of $3.5 billion and higher average long-term borrowings resulting from asset securitizations and issuances of senior and subordinated notes. Those increases were partially offset by a $2.9 billion decline in average short-term borrowings from the FHLB of New York.

Average interest-bearing liabilities increased $8.1 billion from the third quarter of 2025 reflecting growth in average interest-bearing deposits of $4.5 billion, higher average short-term borrowings from the FHLB of New York of $1.9 billion and an increase in average long-term borrowings of $1.2 billion resulting from asset securitizations and issuances of subordinated notes, partially offset by net maturities of senior notes.

The provision for credit losses was $135 million in the third quarter of 2026 as compared with $120 million in the second quarter of 2026 and $125 million in the third quarter of 2025. The allowance for loan losses as a percent of loans outstanding was 1.51% at September 30, 2026 and 1.53% at June 30, 2026, each improved from 1.59% at September 30, 2025, reflecting lower levels of criticized loans.

Nonaccrual loans were $1.3 billion at September 30, 2026 and $1.2 billion at June 30, 2026, compared with $1.5 billion at September 30, 2025. The lower level of nonaccrual loans at September 30, 2026 and June 30, 2026 as compared with September 30, 2025 reflects a decrease in commercial and industrial and commercial real estate nonaccrual loans.

Effective January 1, 2026, the Company elected to prospectively measure its residential mortgage loan servicing right assets at fair value with changes in fair value reflected in mortgage banking revenues. As a result, amortization associated with residential mortgage loan servicing right assets previously recognized in other costs of operations before 2026 is no longer recorded. Instead, beginning in 2026 fair value changes in residential mortgage loan servicing right assets, inclusive of the realization of expected net servicing revenues over time, are included in mortgage banking revenues. On December 31, 2025, the Company began economically hedging the risk of fair value changes in these assets through the use of various interest rate derivative contracts, for which changes in fair value are also reflected in mortgage banking revenues.

Noninterest income in the third quarter of 2026 increased $3 million from 2026's second quarter.

• Trust and investment services income declined $5 million reflecting seasonal tax services fees earned by the wealth management business in the second quarter of 2026.
• Mortgage banking revenues increased $25 million reflecting a rise in residential mortgage loan sub-servicing income. In June 2026, the Company began sub-servicing $62.9 billion of additional residential mortgage loans.
• Capital markets and advisory revenues decreased $9 million reflecting a decline in loan syndication fees and lower revenues from interest rate swap transactions with commercial customers.
• Other revenues from operations decreased $10 million reflecting a lower distribution from M&T's investment in BLG in the recent quarter.

Noninterest income declined $9 million, or 1%, as compared with the third quarter of 2025.

• Trust and investment services income rose $13 million reflecting higher corporate trust revenues from the Company's institutional services business and an increase in personal trust and investment services revenues from its wealth management businesses.
• Mortgage banking revenues increased $5 million reflecting a rise in residential mortgage loan sub-servicing income, partially offset by the impact of the Company's fair value accounting election described above and lower gains on commercial mortgage loans originated for sale.

____________________
(1)	Capital ratios at September 30, 2026 are estimated.

M&T's capital ratios remained well above the minimum set forth by regulatory requirements. Cash dividends declared on M&T's common and preferred stock totaled $217 million and $42 million, respectively, for the quarter ended September 30, 2026. M&T's current stress capital buffer is 2.7%.

Reflecting rising interest rates, accumulated other comprehensive income declined $588 million in the recent quarter. In July 2026, the Company transferred $8.3 billion of residential mortgage-backed securities from the available-for-sale portfolio to the held-to-maturity portfolio with net unrealized gains of $8 million. Unrealized losses on those transferred securities at September 30, 2026 were $222 million ($165 million net of tax).

M&T repurchased shares of its common stock at a cost of $323 million during the recent quarter, compared with $465 million and $409 million in the second quarter of 2026 and the third quarter of 2025, respectively.

The CET1 capital ratio for M&T was estimated at 10.16% as of September 30, 2026. M&T's total risk-weighted assets at September 30, 2026 are estimated to be $170.6 billion. Reflecting loan growth and share repurchase activity in the recent quarter and the impact of unrealized losses on investment securities available for sale included in accumulated other comprehensive income at September 30, 2026, M&T's tangible common equity to tangible asset ratio at September 30, 2026 declined 22 basis points from June 30, 2026 and 94 basis points from September 30, 2025.

While not subject to the liquidity coverage ratio ("LCR") requirements, M&T estimates that its LCR on September 30, 2026 was 107%, exceeding the regulatory minimum standards that would be applicable if it were a Category III institution subject to the Category III reduced LCR requirements.

Forward-Looking Statements

This news release and related conference call may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and the rules and regulations of the SEC. Any statement that does not describe historical or current facts is a forward-looking statement, including statements based on current expectations, estimates and projections about M&T's business, and management's beliefs and assumptions.

Statements regarding the potential effects of events or factors specific to M&T and/or the financial industry as a whole, as well as national and global events generally, on M&T's business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations may constitute forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to the risk that the actual effects may differ, possibly materially, from what is reflected in those forward-looking statements due to factors and future developments that are uncertain, unpredictable and in many cases beyond M&T's control.

Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "target," "estimate," "continue," or "potential," by future conditional verbs such as "will," "would," "should," "could," or "may," or by variations of such words or by similar expressions. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions which are difficult to predict and may cause actual outcomes to differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted.

While there can be no assurance that any list of risks and uncertainties is complete, important factors that could cause actual outcomes and results to differ materially from those contemplated by forward-looking statements include the following, without limitation: economic conditions and growth rates, including inflation and market volatility; events, developments and current conditions in the financial services industry, including trust, brokerage and investment management businesses; changes in interest rates, spreads on earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, and interest rate sensitivity; prepayment speeds, loan originations, loan concentrations by type and industry, credit losses and market values on loans, collateral securing loans, and other assets; sources of liquidity; levels of client deposits; ability to contain costs and expenses; changes in M&T's credit ratings; domestic or international political developments and other geopolitical events, including trade and tariff policies and international conflicts and hostilities; changes and trends in the securities markets; common shares outstanding and common stock price volatility; fair value of and number of stock-based compensation awards to be issued in future periods; the impact of changes in market values on trust-, brokerage-, and investment management-related revenues; federal, state or local legislation and/or regulations affecting the financial services industry, or M&T and its subsidiaries individually or collectively, including tax policy; regulatory supervision and oversight, including monetary policy and capital requirements; governmental and public policy changes; political conditions, either nationally or in the states in which M&T and its subsidiaries do business; the initiation and outcome of potential, pending and future litigation, investigations and governmental proceedings, including tax-related examinations and other matters; operational risk events, including loss resulting from fraud by employees or persons outside M&T and breaches in data and cybersecurity; changes in accounting policies or procedures as may be required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, regulatory agencies or legislation; increasing price, product and service competition by competitors, including new entrants; technological developments and changes; the ability to continue to introduce competitive new products and services on a timely, cost-effective basis; the mix of products and services; protection and validity of intellectual property rights; reliance on large customers; technological, implementation and cost/financial risks in large, multi-year contracts; continued availability of financing; financial resources in the amounts, at the times and on the terms required to support M&T and its subsidiaries' future businesses; and material differences in the actual financial results of merger, acquisition, divestment and investment activities compared with M&T's initial expectations, including the full realization of anticipated cost savings and revenue enhancements.

These are representative of the factors that could affect the outcome of the forward-looking statements. In addition, as noted, such statements could be affected by general industry and market conditions and growth rates, general economic and political conditions, either nationally or in the states in which M&T and its subsidiaries do business, and other factors.

M&T provides further detail regarding these risks and uncertainties in its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, including in the Risk Factors section of such report, as well as in other SEC filings. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and M&T assumes no duty and does not undertake to update forward-looking statements.
