CEO Commentary

“In the first quarter, we reported earnings per share of $0.99 and a return on tangible common equity of 16.6%. Our results benefitted from healthy trends in consumer and business activity. We saw very strong loan growth, which drove solid growth in net interest income. Our fee revenue growth was supported by improving business activity and new business wins. Notably, we continued to see good momentum in our payments businesses reflecting both continued cyclical recovery in pandemic impacted industries, particularly travel and entertainment sectors, as well as the benefit from previous investments. We continue to manage our operating expenses prudently, even as we invest for the future, and we continue to benefit from the progress we are making on initiatives aimed at advancing our digital offerings, expanding our payment services capabilities and enhancing our core technology. We continue to work on integration activities related to our planned acquisition of Union Bank and we remain confident the strategic and financial merits of this deal will meaningfully enhance shareholder value and the combination will benefit our customers, our communities and our employees for years to come. Our credit quality remains strong, and we continue to approach credit decisions with a through the cycle lens. In summary, the year is off to a good start, and I would like to thank our employees for their hard work and dedication to serving all our constituents.”

— Andy Cecere, Chairman, President and CEO, U.S. Bancorp

Net income attributable to U.S. Bancorp was $1,557 million for the first quarter of 2022, which was $723 million lower than the $2,280 million for the first quarter of 2021, and $116 million lower than the $1,673 million for the fourth quarter of 2021. Diluted earnings per common share were $0.99 in the first quarter of 2022, compared with $1.45 in the first quarter of 2021 and $1.07 in the fourth quarter of 2021.

The decrease in net income year-over-year was primarily due to a higher provision for credit losses. Pretax income before the provision for credit losses was essentially flat compared to a year ago. Net interest income increased 3.6 percent on a year-over-year taxable-equivalent basis due to higher loan and investment securities balances and favorable deposit and funding mix due in part to higher noninterest-bearing deposits, partially offset by lower loan yields and mix as well as lower loan fees driven by the impact of loan forgiveness related to the SBA Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) in the first quarter of 2021. The net interest margin declined from 2.50 percent in the first quarter of 2021 to 2.44 percent in the current quarter primarily due to changes in loan mix and lower loan spreads within fixed-rate portfolios from a year ago, partially offset by funding and yield curve favorability. Noninterest income increased 0.6 percent compared with a year ago primarily reflecting stronger payment services revenue, trust and investment management fees, deposit service charges and treasury management fees, mostly offset by lower commercial products revenue related to capital markets activities, mortgage banking revenue as refinancing activities decline, and other noninterest income. Noninterest expense increased 3.6 percent reflecting increases in compensation expense, professional services expense and marketing and business development expense. Provision for credit losses was higher due to reductions in the allowance for credit losses in the first quarter of 2021.

Net income decreased on a linked quarter basis due to higher provision for credit losses and seasonally lower noninterest income, partially offset by growth in net interest income and lower noninterest expense. Net interest income increased 1.6 percent on a taxable-equivalent basis primarily due to higher loan and investment portfolio balances as well as higher yields in the investment portfolio, partially offset by lower loan fees primarily driven by lower PPP loan forgiveness, loan mix, and two fewer days in the quarter. The net interest margin increased four basis points on a linked quarter basis reflecting the changing yield curve and lower cash balances, partially offset by the impact of loan mix. Noninterest income decreased 5.4 percent compared with the fourth quarter of 2021 driven by seasonally lower credit and debit card revenue, deposit service charges and mortgage banking revenue, partially offset by growth in trust and investment management fees. Noninterest expense decreased 0.9 percent on a linked quarter basis reflecting lower professional services expense, marketing and business development expense and technology and communications expense, partially offset by increases in employee benefits expense and other noninterest expense.

Net interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis in the first quarter of 2022 was $3,200 million, an increase of $111 million (3.6 percent) compared with the first quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily due to higher loan and investment securities balances and favorable deposit and funding mix due in part to higher noninterest-bearing deposits, partially offset by lower loan yields and mix as well as lower loan fees, driven by the impact of loan forgiveness related to PPP in the first quarter of 2021. Average earning assets were $32.1 billion (6.5 percent) higher than the first quarter of 2021, reflecting an increase of $29.2 billion (20.1 percent) in average investment securities and an increase of $19.0 billion (6.5 percent) in average total loans, while average interest-bearing deposits with banks decreased $11.9 billion (28.6 percent).

Net interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis increased $50 million (1.6 percent) on a linked quarter basis primarily due to higher loan and investment portfolio balances as well as higher yields in the investment portfolio, partially offset by lower loan fees primarily driven by lower PPP loan forgiveness, loan mix, and two fewer days in the quarter. Average earning assets were $7.3 billion (1.4 percent) higher on a linked quarter basis, reflecting increases of $14.0 billion (8.7 percent) in average investment securities and $10.2 billion (3.4 percent) in average loans, while average interest-bearing deposits with banks decreased $15.9 billion (34.8 percent).

The net interest margin in the first quarter of 2022 was 2.44 percent, compared with 2.50 percent in the first quarter of 2021 and 2.40 percent in the fourth quarter of 2021. The decrease in the net interest margin from the prior year was primarily due to the mix of loans and lower loan spreads within fixed-rate portfolios, partially offset by funding and yield curve favorability. The increase in interest margin on a linked quarter basis reflected the changing yield curve and lower cash balances, partially offset by the impact of loan mix. The increase in average investment securities year-over-year and on a linked quarter basis was due to purchases of mortgage-backed and U.S. Treasury securities, net of prepayments, sales and maturities.

Total loans		$312,966		$302,755		$293,989		3.4			6.5

Average total loans for the first quarter of 2022 were $19.0 billion (6.5 percent) higher than the first quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily due to growth in commercial loans (11.4 percent), residential mortgages (3.0 percent) and other retail loans (20.5 percent), partially offset by lower home equity and second mortgages (13.8 percent). The strong growth in other retail loans was driven by auto and recreational vehicle lending during 2021. The increase in commercial loans was due to higher utilization driven by working capital needs of corporate customers, slower pay-offs given higher volatility in the capital markets and core growth, partly offset by expected reductions related to the forgiveness of loans in the SBA Paycheck Protection Program. The increase in residential mortgages was driven by stronger on-balance sheet loan activities and slower refinance activity. In addition, credit card loans increased 7.9 percent on a year-over-year basis, adjusting for the impact of a card portfolio transferred to loans held-for-sale during the fourth quarter of 2021.

Average total loans were $10.2 billion (3.4 percent) higher than the fourth quarter of 2021 primarily due to higher commercial loans (8.4 percent) driven by continued strong new business and higher utilization, residential mortgages (2.1 percent) and other retail loans (2.4 percent). Adjusting for the impact of the card portfolio transferred to loans held-for sale in the fourth quarter of 2021, credit card loans were 0.5 percent higher on a linked quarter basis.

Average noninterest-bearing deposits increased $9.6 billion (8.1 percent) primarily within Corporate and Commercial Banking and Wealth Management and Investment Services. Average total savings deposits were $20.6 billion (7.3 percent) higher year-over-year driven by Consumer and Business Banking and Corporate and Commercial Banking, partially offset by a decrease in Wealth Management and Investment Services. Average time deposits were $2.4 billion (8.8 percent) lower than the prior year primarily within Consumer and Business Banking and Wealth Management and Investment Services, partially offset by an increase in Corporate and Commercial Banking. Changes in time deposits are primarily related to those deposits managed as an alternative to other funding sources, based largely on relative pricing and liquidity characteristics.

Average total deposits grew $4.3 billion (1.0 percent) from the fourth quarter of 2021. On a linked quarter basis, average noninterest-bearing deposits were lower by $8.0 billion (5.9 percent) with seasonal decreases across all business lines.

First quarter noninterest income of $2,396 million was $15 million (0.6 percent) higher than the first quarter of 2021 reflecting strong payment services revenue, growth in trust and investment management fees, and improving deposit service charges, and treasury management fees, mostly offset by lower commercial products revenue, mortgage banking revenue, and other noninterest income. Payment services revenue increased $79 million (10.1 percent) compared with the first quarter of 2021 as corporate payment products revenue increased $32 million (25.4 percent) primarily due to higher sales volume and merchant processing services revenue increased $45 million (14.2 percent) driven by higher sales volumes and merchant fees. Trust and investment management fees increased $56 million (12.6 percent) driven by business growth, favorable market conditions and activity related to the fourth quarter of 2021 acquisition of PFM Asset Management LLC (“PFM”), partially offset by higher fee waivers. Deposit service charges increased $16 million (9.9 percent) primarily due to higher customer spend activity, net of the impact of the elimination of certain consumer NSF fees in the first quarter of 2022. Treasury management fees increased $9 million (6.1 percent) primarily due to core growth given the continued recovery in the economy. Partially offsetting these increases, commercial products revenue decreased $14 million (5.0 percent) primarily due to lower corporate bond fees and trading revenue within the capital markets business. Mortgage banking revenue decreased $99 million (33.1 percent) compared with the first quarter of 2021 due to lower application volumes, given declining refinance activities, and lower related gain on sale margins, partially offset by the favorable net impact of the change in fair value of mortgage servicing rights, net of hedging activities, as well as higher performing loan sales. Other noninterest income decreased $32 million (16.8 percent) driven by the impact of prior year asset sales and lower retail leasing end-of-term residual gains in the first quarter of 2022.

Noninterest income was $138 million (5.4 percent) lower in the first quarter of 2022 compared with the fourth quarter of 2021 reflecting lower credit and debit card revenue, deposit service charges and mortgage banking revenue, partially offset by higher trust and investment management fees. Credit and debit card revenue decreased $44 million (11.5 percent) due to seasonally lower sales volume and rate as well as lower prepaid card processing fees. Deposit service charges decreased $16 million (8.3 percent) on a linked quarter basis primarily due to seasonally lower volumes and the impact of the elimination of certain consumer NSF fees in the first quarter of 2022 net of higher customer activity. Mortgage banking revenue decreased $98 million (32.9 percent) driven by lower application volume and related gain on sale margins as well as lower performing loan sales, partially offset by the favorable net impact of the change in fair value of mortgage servicing rights, net of hedging activities. Partially offsetting these decreases, trust and investment management fees increased $17 million (3.5 percent) driven by the PFM acquisition, partially offset by unfavorable market conditions and lower fees.

First quarter noninterest expense of $3,502 million was $123 million (3.6 percent) higher than the first quarter of 2021 reflecting increases in compensation expense, professional services expense and marketing and business development expense. Compensation expense increased $50 million (2.8 percent) compared with the first quarter of 2021 primarily due to merit and hiring to support business growth, partially offset by lower performance-based incentives. Professional services expense increased $16 million (16.3 percent) primarily due to an increase in business investment and related initiatives. Marketing and business development expense increased $32 million (66.7 percent) due to the timing of marketing campaigns as well as increased travel and entertainment.

Noninterest expense decreased $31 million (0.9 percent) on a linked quarter basis reflecting lower professional services expense, and marketing and business development expense, partially offset by a seasonal increase in employee benefits expense and higher other noninterest expense. Professional services expense decreased $46 million (28.8 percent) primarily due to timing of certain initiatives in the fourth quarter of 2021. Marketing and business development expense decreased $49 million (38.0 percent) due to the timing of marketing campaigns. Partially offsetting these decreases, employee benefits expense increased $24 million (6.5 percent) mainly driven by seasonally higher payroll taxes. Other noninterest expense increased $52 million (19.3 percent) primarily due to higher FDIC insurance costs as well as other accruals, mostly offset by seasonally lower costs related to tax-advantaged investments.

Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes for the first quarter of 2022 resulted in a tax rate of 21.4 percent on a taxable-equivalent basis (effective tax rate of 20.3 percent), compared with 21.7 percent on a taxable-equivalent basis (effective tax rate of 21.0 percent) in the first quarter of 2021, and a tax rate of 22.5 percent on a taxable-equivalent basis (effective tax rate of 21.5 percent) in the fourth quarter of 2021.

		U.S. Bancorp First Quarter 2022 Results

The Company’s provision for credit losses for the first quarter of 2022 was $112 million, compared with a benefit of $13 million in the fourth quarter of 2021 and a benefit of $827 million in the first quarter of 2021. During 2021, factors affecting economic conditions, including passing of additional government stimulus and widespread vaccine availability in the U.S., contributed to economic improvement and related reserve releases. The consumer portfolio performance continues to be supported by strong credit quality and asset values, while select commercial portfolios continue to recover from the effects of the pandemic. Economic uncertainty remains high associated with supply chain concerns, rising inflationary concerns, market volatility, rising oil prices from the Russia-Ukraine conflict and additional virus variants. In addition to these factors, expected loss estimates consider various factors including customer specific information impacting changes in risk ratings, projected delinquencies and potential effects of diminishing liquidity without the support of mortgage forbearance and direct federal stimulus.

Total net charge-offs in the first quarter of 2022 were $162 million, compared with $132 million in the fourth quarter of 2021 and $223 million in the first quarter of 2021. The net charge-off ratio was 0.21 percent in the first quarter of 2022, compared with 0.17 percent in the fourth quarter of 2021 and 0.31 percent in the first quarter of 2021. Net charge-offs increased $30 million (22.7 percent) compared with the fourth quarter of 2021 reflecting limited commercial credit losses in the prior period. Net charge-offs decreased $61 million (27.4 percent) compared with the first quarter of 2021 reflecting improvement across most loan categories. Improvements from the prior year reflect borrower liquidity and strong asset prices in the market supporting repayment and recovery of problem loans.

The allowance for credit losses was $6,105 million at March 31, 2022, compared with $6,155 million at December 31, 2021, and $6,960 million at March 31, 2021. The decrease on a linked quarter basis was driven by continued strong credit quality and collateral performance, partially offset by loan growth. The ratio of the allowance for credit losses to period-end loans was 1.91 percent at March 31, 2022, compared with 1.97 percent at December 31, 2021, and 2.36 percent at March 31, 2021. The ratio of the allowance for credit losses to nonperforming loans was 798 percent at March 31, 2022, compared with 738 percent at December 31, 2021, and 617 percent at March 31, 2021.

Nonperforming assets were $811 million at March 31, 2022, compared with $878 million at December 31, 2021, and $1,202 million at March 31, 2021. The ratio of nonperforming assets to loans and other real estate was 0.25 percent at March 31, 2022, compared with 0.28 percent at December 31, 2021, and 0.41 percent at March 31, 2021. The year-over-year decrease in nonperforming assets was primarily due to decreases in total commercial nonperforming loans, total commercial real estate nonperforming loans and residential mortgages, while the decrease on a linked quarter basis was primarily due to decreases in total commercial real estate nonperforming loans. Accruing loans 90 days or more past due were $450 million at March 31, 2022, compared with $472 million at December 31, 2021, and $476 million at March 31, 2021.

Total U.S. Bancorp shareholders’ equity was $51.2 billion at March 31, 2022, compared with $54.9 billion at December 31, 2021, and $51.7 billion at March 31, 2021. The Company suspended all common stock repurchases at the beginning of the third quarter of 2021, except for those done exclusively in connection with its stock-based compensation programs, due to its pending acquisition of MUFG Union Bank’s core regional banking franchise. The Company expects to operate at a CET1 capital ratio between our target ratio and 9.0 percent after closing of the acquisition. The Company does not expect to commence repurchasing its common stock until after the acquisition closes and the CET1 ratio approximates 9.0 percent.

All regulatory ratios continue to be in excess of “well-capitalized” requirements. The common equity tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets ratio using the Basel III standardized approach was 9.8 percent at March 31, 2022, compared with 10.0 percent at December 31, 2021, and 9.9 percent at March 31, 2021. The Company’s common equity tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets ratio, reflecting the full implementation of the current expected credit losses methodology was 9.5 percent at March 31, 2022, compared with 9.6 percent at December 31, 2021, and 9.5 percent at March 31, 2021.

Forward-looking Statements

“Safe Harbor” Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995:

This press release contains forward-looking statements about U.S. Bancorp. Statements that are not historical or current facts, including statements about beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements and are based on the information available to, and assumptions and estimates made by, management as of the date hereof. These forward-looking statements cover, among other things, anticipated future revenue and expenses and the future plans and prospects of U.S. Bancorp. Forward-looking statements often use words such as “anticipates,” “targets,” “expects,” “hopes,” “estimates,” “projects,” “forecasts,” “intends,” “plans,” “goals,” “believes,” “continue” and other similar expressions or future or conditional verbs such as “will,” “may,” “might,” “should,” “would” and “could.”

Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, including the following risks and uncertainties and the risks and uncertainties more fully discussed in the section entitled “Risk Factors” of Exhibit 13 to U.S. Bancorp’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated. The COVID-19 pandemic is adversely affecting U.S. Bancorp, its customers, counterparties, employees, and third-party service providers, and the ultimate extent of the impacts on its business, financial position, results of operations, liquidity, and prospects is uncertain. Continued deterioration in general business and economic conditions or turbulence in domestic or global financial markets could adversely affect U.S. Bancorp’s revenues and the values of its assets and liabilities, reduce the availability of funding to certain financial institutions, lead to a tightening of credit, and increase stock price volatility. In addition, changes to statutes, regulations, or regulatory policies or practices could affect U.S. Bancorp in substantial and unpredictable ways. U.S. Bancorp’s results could also be adversely affected by changes in interest rates; increases in unemployment rates; deterioration in the credit quality of its loan portfolios or in the value of the collateral securing those loans; deterioration in the value of its investment securities; legal and regulatory developments; litigation; increased competition from both banks and non-banks; civil unrest; the effects of climate change; changes in customer behavior and preferences; breaches in data security, including as a result of work-from-home arrangements; failures to safeguard personal information; the impacts of international hostilities or geopolitical events; effects of mergers and acquisitions and related integration; effects of critical accounting policies and judgments; and management’s ability to effectively manage credit risk, market risk, operational risk, compliance risk, strategic risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk and reputation risk. In addition, U.S. Bancorp’s proposed acquisition of MUFG Union Bank presents risks and uncertainties, including, among others: the risk that the cost savings, any revenue synergies and other anticipated benefits of the proposed acquisition may not be realized or may take longer than anticipated to be realized; the risk that U.S. Bancorp’s business could be disrupted as a result of the announcement and pendency of the proposed acquisition and diversion of management’s attention from ongoing business operations and opportunities; the possibility that the proposed

LOGO


		U.S. Bancorp First Quarter 2022 Results

acquisition, including the integration of MUFG Union Bank, may be more costly or difficult to complete than anticipated; delays in closing the proposed acquisition; and the failure of required governmental approvals to be obtained or any other closing conditions in the definitive purchase agreement to be satisfied.

For discussion of these and other risks that may cause actual results to differ from those described in forward-looking statements, refer to U.S. Bancorp’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the sections entitled “Corporate Risk Profile” and “Risk Factors” contained in Exhibit 13, and all subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission under Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In addition, factors other than these risks also could adversely affect U.S. Bancorp’s results, and the reader should not consider these risks to be a complete set of all potential risks or uncertainties. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date hereof, and U.S. Bancorp undertakes no obligation to update them in light of new information or future events.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to capital ratios defined by banking regulators, the Company considers various other measures when evaluating capital utilization and adequacy, including:

•

Tangible common equity to tangible assets

•

Tangible common equity to risk-weighted assets

•

Common equity tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets, reflecting the full implementation of the current expected credit losses methodology, and

•

Return on tangible common equity.

These capital measures are viewed by management as useful additional methods of evaluating the Company’s utilization of its capital held and the level of capital available to withstand unexpected negative market or economic conditions. Additionally, presentation of these measures allows investors, analysts and banking regulators to assess the Company’s capital position relative to other financial services companies. These capital measures are not defined in generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), or are not currently effective or defined in banking regulations. In addition, certain of these measures differ from currently effective capital ratios defined by banking regulations principally in that the currently effective ratios, which are subject to certain transitional provisions, temporarily exclude the impact of the 2020 adoption of accounting guidance related to impairment of financial instruments based on the current expected credit losses methodology. As a result, these capital measures disclosed by the Company may be considered non-GAAP financial measures. Management believes this information helps investors assess trends in the Company’s capital adequacy.

The Company also discloses net interest income and related ratios and analysis on a taxable-equivalent basis, which may also be considered non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes this presentation to be the preferred industry measurement of net interest income as it provides a relevant comparison of net interest income arising from taxable and tax-exempt sources. In addition, certain performance measures, including the efficiency ratio and net interest margin utilize net interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis.

There may be limits in the usefulness of these measures to investors. As a result, the Company encourages readers to consider the consolidated financial statements and other financial information contained in this press release in their entirety, and not to rely on any single financial measure. A table follows that shows the Company’s calculation of these non-GAAP financial measures.

Lines of Business

The Company’s major lines of business are Corporate and Commercial Banking, Consumer and Business Banking, Wealth Management and Investment Services, Payment Services, and Treasury and Corporate Support. These operating segments are components of the Company about which financial information is prepared and is evaluated regularly by management in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. Business line results are derived from the Company’s business unit profitability reporting systems by specifically attributing managed balance sheet assets, deposits and other liabilities and their related income or expense. Designations, assignments and allocations change from time to time as management systems are enhanced, methods of evaluating performance or product lines change or business segments are realigned to better respond to the Company’s diverse customer base. During 2022, certain organization and methodology changes were made and, accordingly, prior period results were restated and presented on a comparable basis.

(a) preliminary data

Corporate and Commercial Banking offers lending, equipment finance and small-ticket leasing, depository services, treasury management, capital markets services, international trade services and other financial services to middle market, large corporate, commercial real estate, financial institution, non-profit and public sector clients.

Corporate and Commercial Banking contributed $418 million of the Company’s net income in the first quarter of 2022, compared with $469 million in the first quarter of 2021. Total net revenue was $7 million (0.7 percent) lower due to a decrease of $23 million (8.6 percent) in total noninterest income, partially offset by an increase of $16 million (2.2 percent) in net interest income. Net interest income increased primarily due to higher loan and deposit balances, partially offset by the impact of loan mix and related yields as well as unfavorable changes in deposit rates. Total noninterest income decreased primarily due to lower corporate bond fees and trading revenue within the capital markets business, partially offset by stronger treasury management fees due to core growth driven by the economic recovery. Total noninterest expense increased $10 million (2.4 percent) compared with a year ago primarily due to an increase in net shared services expense driven by investment in infrastructure and technology development as well as higher compensation expense primarily due to merit and hiring to support business growth, partially offset by lower performance-based incentives related to capital markets activity. The provision for credit losses increased $51 million compared with the first quarter of 2021 primarily due to loan loss provisions supporting stronger growth in loan balances in the current year linked quarter, partially offset by improving portfolio credit quality in the current year.

(a) preliminary data

Consumer and Business Banking delivers products and services through banking offices, telephone servicing and sales, on-line services, direct mail, ATM processing and mobile devices. It encompasses community banking, metropolitan banking and indirect lending, as well as mortgage banking.

Consumer and Business Banking contributed $393 million of the Company’s net income in the first quarter of 2022, compared with $575 million in the first quarter of 2021. Total net revenue was lower by $96 million (4.6 percent) due to a decrease in total noninterest income of $108 million (19.0 percent), partially offset by higher net interest income of $12 million (0.8 percent). Net interest income reflected strong growth in interest-bearing deposit balances and favorable funding mix, partially offset by lower loan fees related to the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP). Total noninterest income decreased primarily due to lower mortgage banking revenue reflecting lower application volumes, given declining refinance activities, and lower related gain on sale margins, partially offset by the favorable net impact of the change in fair value of mortgage servicing rights, net of hedging activities, as well as higher performing loan sales. Additionally, other noninterest income decreased due to lower retail leasing end-of-term residual gains. Offsetting these decreases, deposit service charges increased driven by higher customer spend activity, net of the impact of the elimination of certain consumer NSF fees in the first quarter of 2022. Total noninterest expense increased $61 million (4.5 percent) primarily due to increases in net shared services expense due to investments in digital capabilities and higher compensation expense from merit and core business growth. The provision for credit losses increased $86 million due to higher loan loss provisions reflecting relatively stable ending balances and credit quality in the current quarter, compared with balance reductions and credit quality improvement in the prior year linked quarter.

(a) preliminary data

Wealth Management and Investment Services provides private banking, financial advisory services, investment management, retail brokerage services, insurance, trust, custody and fund servicing through four businesses: Wealth Management, Global Corporate Trust & Custody, U.S. Bancorp Asset Management and Fund Services.

Wealth Management and Investment Services contributed $206 million of the Company’s net income in the first quarter of 2022, compared with $225 million in the first quarter of 2021. Total net revenue increased $71 million (8.9 percent) year-over-year reflecting an increase of $6 million (2.2 percent) in net interest income and an increase of $65 million (12.2 percent) in total noninterest income. Net interest income increased slightly year-over-year primarily due to higher average noninterest-bearing deposits as well as higher average loan balances. Total noninterest income increased primarily due to core business growth in trust and investment management fees and investment products fees both driven by favorable market conditions as well as the impact of the PFM acquisition on trust and investment fees, partially offset by higher fee waivers related to money market funds. Total noninterest expense increased $93 million (18.8 percent) compared with the first quarter of 2021 reflecting the PFM acquisition, compensation expense as a result of merit and performance-based incentives, litigation settlements, fraud related losses and core business growth. The provision for credit losses increased $3 million (60.0 percent) due to increased loan loss provisions supporting stronger growth in ending loans and a modest shift in credit quality in the current period compared with the prior year quarter.

(a) preliminary data

Payment Services includes consumer and business credit cards, stored-value cards, debit cards, corporate, government and purchasing card services, consumer lines of credit and merchant processing.

Payment Services contributed $372 million of the Company’s net income in the first quarter of 2022, compared with $487 million in the first quarter of 2021. Total net revenue increased $66 million (4.7 percent) primarily due to higher total noninterest income of $73 million (9.3 percent), partially offset by lower net interest income of $7 million (1.1 percent). Net interest income decreased slightly primarily due to lower loan yields driven by declining customer revolve rates, mostly offset by higher loan balances due to investment in customer acquisition. Total noninterest income increased year-over-year mainly due to continued strengthening of consumer and business spending across most sectors as local jurisdictions reduce pandemic related restrictions and consumer behaviors normalize. As a result, there was strong growth in merchant processing services revenue driven by higher sales volume and higher merchant fees, partially offset by higher rebates. There was also solid growth in corporate payment products revenue driven by improving business spending across nearly all product groups. Strong sales also drove an increase in credit and debit card revenue, mostly offset by declining prepaid processing fees as the beneficial impact of government stimulus programs continues to dissipate. Total noninterest expense increased $49 million (6.1 percent) reflecting higher net shared services expense driven by investment in infrastructure and technology development in addition to higher compensation expense as a result of merit, performance-based incentives and core business growth. The provision for credit losses increased $171 million primarily due to ending loan balance growth and relatively stable credit quality in the current period compared with a reduction in loan balances and delinquencies in the prior year quarter.

(a) preliminary data

Treasury and Corporate Support includes the Company’s investment portfolios, funding, capital management, interest rate risk management, income taxes not allocated to the business lines, including most investments in tax-advantaged projects, and the residual aggregate of those expenses associated with corporate activities that are managed on a consolidated basis.

Treasury and Corporate Support contributed $168 million of the Company’s net income in the first quarter of 2022, compared with $524 million in the first quarter of 2021. Total net revenue was higher by $92 million (46.9 percent) due to an increase of $84 million in net interest income and an increase in total noninterest income of $8 million (3.5 percent). Net interest income increased primarily due to higher investment portfolio balances. The increase in total noninterest income was primarily due to the impact of COVID-related deposit service charges refunds in the first quarter of 2021. Total noninterest expense decreased $90 million (27.5 percent) primarily due to lower performance-based incentives and lower costs related to tax-advantaged investments, partially offset by higher costs of capital investments to support business growth and compensation expense as a result of merit. The provision for credit losses increased $628 million (89.0 percent) reflecting the residual impact of changes in the allowance for credit losses being impacted by the relatively stable economic conditions relative to the more substantial impact to the allowance for credit losses associated with improving economic conditions in the first quarter of 2021. Income taxes are assessed to each line of business at a managerial tax rate of 25.0 percent with the residual tax expense or benefit to arrive at the consolidated effective tax rate included in Treasury and Corporate Support.
