Capital returned to shareholders $950 million Q2 2026 capital return consisting of $850 million of repurchases and $100 million of dividends
net interest margin financial
"Net interest margin increased 30 basis points to 15.08%"
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.
retailer share arrangements financial
"Retailer share arrangements increased $35 million, or 4%, to $1.0 billion"
Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio regulatory
"The estimated Common Equity Tier 1 ratio was 13.2% compared to 14.2%"
A bank’s common equity tier 1 (CET1) capital ratio measures the size of its strongest loss-absorbing capital—mainly common shares and retained earnings—relative to the bank’s assets after adjusting those assets for how risky they are (riskier loans count more). Think of it as the safety cushion compared with the weight of risky business; investors use it to judge a bank’s ability to survive losses, meet rules, and sustain dividends or growth.
allowance for credit losses financial
"The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of total period-end loan receivables was 10.09%"
Allowance for credit losses is a reserve set aside by a financial institution to cover potential losses from borrowers who may not repay their loans. It acts like a safety net, helping the institution prepare for loans that might turn sour. For investors, it signals how cautious the institution is about the quality of its loans and potential risks to its financial health.
tangible book value per share financial
"Tangible book value per share** increased 8% to $42.01"
Tangible book value per share is the company's total physical and financial assets minus its liabilities and intangible items (like goodwill and brand value), divided by the number of outstanding shares. It gives investors a conservative, per‑share estimate of what would remain if the business sold only its hard assets and paid its debts—useful for judging whether a stock is priced above or below its underlying, tangible worth, like valuing a property by its bricks and cash rather than its reputation.
payment rate financial
"Payment rate of 17.0% up approximately 70bps vs. 2Q'25"

Second Quarter 2026 Results and Key Metrics

STAMFORD, Conn - Synchrony Financial (NYSE: SYF) today announced second quarter 2026 net earnings of $885 million, or $2.59 per diluted share, compared to $967 million, or $2.50 per diluted share in the second quarter 2025.

CEO Commentary
“Synchrony's second quarter performance reflected clear momentum across our core business drivers,” said Brian Doubles, Synchrony’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “Customer engagement remained strong as new accounts continued to grow, average active accounts inflected back to growth, and higher spend per account across each of our five sales platforms drove all-time high purchase volume for our business.”

“Within our portfolio, spend was particularly strong for our value-oriented partners and for those with broad, diversified offerings. Meanwhile, out-of-partner discretionary spend on our consumer co-branded products grew by double-digits, which was in line with non-discretionary growth despite the impact of elevated fuel prices and driven by categories like entertainment, retail and electronics.”

“These results are a testament to the enduring demand for the products and services we finance and the strength of our differentiated business model. Looking ahead, we will maintain our credit discipline, execute across our strategic initiatives and continue investing in our long-term growth opportunities. This will further enhance Synchrony’s ability to deliver everyday value and utility for millions of consumers, while driving loyalty and sales for hundreds of thousands of small and mid-sized businesses and providers nationwide.”

CFO Commentary
“Synchrony delivered strong second quarter results, highlighted by record purchase volume, accelerated growth in ending loan receivables despite elevated payment behavior, and continued strength in credit,” said Brian Wenzel, Synchrony’s Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer.

“Our consistent credit discipline drove lower delinquency and Net charge-offs below our target range. While this prudent posture contributed to moderation in interest and fees, our continued reduction of funding costs supported solid Net interest income growth, and the improvement in program performance was shared through the RSA.”

“We are confident in our path forward as we execute on our strategic imperatives. We remain focused on enhancing our resilient foundation and generating strong profitability to drive intrinsic value over both the short- and long-term, while also returning significant capital to shareholders.”


Business Highlights
Added or renewed more than 15 partners in the quarter, including Suzuki Motor, Amerivet and Roto-Rooter.
Renewed relationship with Suzuki Motor, building on our 17-year partnership delivering secured installment financing solutions.

Financial Highlights
Interest and fees on loans increased $52 million, or 1% to $5.4 billion, primarily driven by growth in average loan receivables.
Net interest income increased $87 million, or 2%, to $4.6 billion, primarily driven by lower interest-bearing liabilities cost associated with lower benchmark rates, partially offset by lower liquidity portfolio and loan receivables yields.
Retailer share arrangements increased $35 million, or 4%, to $1.0 billion, reflecting program performance and higher purchase volume.
Provision for credit losses increased $55 million, or 5%, to $1.2 billion, primarily driven by a reserve release of $163 million versus a $265 million release in the prior year, partially offset by lower net charge-offs of $47 million.
Other income increased $19 million, or 16%, to $137 million, partially driven by a $30 million Visa B-2 share exchange gain partially offset by higher loyalty costs.
Other expense increased $86 million, or 7%, to $1.3 billion, primarily driven by higher operational losses and costs related to technology investments.
Net earnings decreased $82 million, or 8%, to $885 million.

Sales Platform Highlights

These results reflected improving purchase volume trends in the second quarter as compared to previous quarters, partially offset by the effects of higher payment rates.

Home & Auto purchase volume increased 6%, reflecting the performance of new programs.

Digital purchase volume increased 9%, primarily reflecting strong performance across partners with broad diversified offerings and highly engaged customer bases.

Diversified & Value purchase volume increased 12%, primarily reflecting the impact of partner expansion and higher gas sales.

Health & Wellness purchase volume increased 2%, primarily reflecting growth in Pet, partially offset by lower spend in Cosmetic.

(1) Amounts and ratios prior to June 30, 2026 have been recast to reflect the change in presentation of internal-use capitalized software on our Statements of Financial Position. See Statements of Financial Position for additional information.
(2) Tangible common equity ("TCE") is a non-GAAP measure. We believe TCE is a more meaningful measure of the net asset value of the Company to investors. For corresponding reconciliation of TCE to a GAAP financial measure, see Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures and Calculations of Regulatory Measures.
(3) Tangible book value per share is a non-GAAP measure, calculated based on Tangible common equity divided by common shares outstanding. For corresponding reconciliation of this measure to a GAAP financial measure, see Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures and Calculations of Regulatory Measures.
(4) Regulatory capital ratios at June 30, 2026 are preliminary and therefore subject to change.
(5) Total risk-based capital ratio is the ratio of total risk-based capital divided by risk-weighted assets.
(6) Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio is the ratio of Tier 1 capital divided by risk-weighted assets.
(7) Tier 1 leverage ratio is the ratio of Tier 1 capital divided by total average assets, after certain adjustments.

July 21, 2026 SECOND QUARTER 2026 FINANCIAL RESULTS Exhibit 99.3


 

2 Disclaimers Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements The following slides are part of a presentation by Synchrony Financial in connection with reporting quarterly financial results and should be read in conjunction with the earnings release and financial supplement included as exhibits to our Current Report on Form 8-K filed today and available on our website (www.investors.synchrony.com) and the SEC's website (www.sec.gov). All references to net earnings and net income are intended to have the same meaning. All comparisons are for the second quarter of 2026 compared to the second quarter of 2025, unless otherwise noted. This presentation contains certain forward-looking statements as defined in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which are subject to the "safe harbor" created by those sections. Forward-looking statements may be identified by words such as "expects," "intends," "anticipates," "plans," "believes," "seeks," "targets," "outlook," "estimates," "will," "should," "may," “aim,” “focus,” “goal,” “confident,” “trajectory,” "priorities," "designed," "consider," “opportunity” or words of similar meaning, but these words are not the exclusive means of identifying forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on management's current expectations and assumptions, and are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. As a result, actual results could differ materially from those indicated in these forward-looking statements.

Exhibit 99.4
Explanation of Non-GAAP Measures
The information provided in this Form 8-K and exhibits includes measures which are not prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP").
We present certain capital measures in this Form 8-K and exhibits. Our “Tier 1 Capital and Credit Loss Reserve Ratio” is not required by regulators to be disclosed, and therefore is considered a non-GAAP measure. We believe this ratio is a useful measure to investors as it provides a meaningful measure of what the Company’s total loss absorption capacity would be.
We also present measures we refer to as “return on tangible common equity” and “tangible book value per share” in this Form 8-K and exhibits. Tangible book value per share is calculated based on tangible common equity divided by common shares outstanding. Tangible common equity itself is not a measure presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe tangible common equity, and tangible book value per share, are more meaningful measures to investors of the net asset value of the Company.
The reconciliations of these capital and equity related non-GAAP measures to the applicable comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the detailed financial tables included in Exhibit 99.2.
