Net interest income of $1.6 billion decreased 3%, reflecting the impact of a lower day count (-$29 million) and slightly lower interest-earning assets (-$14 million). The company continues to dynamically hedge its interest rate position, contributing to a stable NIM in spite of intensifying deposit dynamics.
•Net interest margin of 3.30% was stable, as higher earning-asset yields and the benefits of lower cash balances were offset by higher funding costs.
First quarter 2023 | vs. | first quarter 2022 |
Net interest income of $1.6 billion increased 43%, reflecting higher net interest margin and 20% growth in average interest-earning assets, including the impact of the HSBC and ISBC transactions.
•Net interest margin of 3.30% increased 55 basis points, reflecting higher interest-earning-asset yields given higher market interest rates and interest-earning asset growth, partially offset by increased funding costs.

First quarter 2023 | vs. | fourth quarter 2022 |
Underlying noninterest expense of $1.2 billion was up 2.8% reflecting higher salaries and employee benefits given seasonal increases in payroll taxes and 401k costs. Other operating expense increased primarily reflecting higher FDIC insurance cost as a result of the industry-wide 2 basis point surcharge effective January 1, 2023. Other categories remain broadly stable reflecting strong expense discipline and the benefit of efficiency initiatives.
The effective tax rate was 23.0%, up modestly from 21.2% due to adoption of a new accounting standard for investments in tax credits and higher disallowed FDIC premiums.
First quarter 2023 | vs. | first quarter 2022 |
Underlying noninterest expense of $1.2 billion, increased 16%, or 6%, excluding the HSBC and ISBC transactions, largely reflecting higher FDIC insurance and fraud losses, partially offset by the benefit of efficiency initiatives.
The effective tax rate of 23.0% was up modestly from 21.7% in first quarter 2022.

First quarter 2023 | vs. | fourth quarter 2022 |
Period-end interest-earning assets of $198.4 billion decreased $3.6 billion, or 2%, driven by $2.4 billion decrease in cash held in interest-bearing deposits, as well as a $2.0 billion decrease in total loans and leases. The decrease in loans and leases reflects a $1.3 billion decrease in commercial given balance sheet optimization actions and lower line utilization as companies are reducing inventories in anticipation of a softer economic environment. Results also reflect a $660 million decrease in retail, given planned run off in auto, partially offset by growth in home equity and mortgage. Excluding the planned auto run off, period-end total loans are down 0.8% and retail loans are up 0.2%.
Average interest-earning assets of $202.6 billion decreased $2.0 billion driven by a $1.0 billion decrease in cash held in interest-bearing deposits, a $607 million decrease in total loans and leases and a $530 million decrease in loans held for sale. The decrease in loans and leases reflects a $460 million decrease in retail given planned run off in auto, partially offset by growth in home equity and mortgage. Excluding the planned auto run off, average total loans are up slightly and retail loans are up 0.5%.
The average effective duration of the securities portfolio was 5.8 years compared with 5.8 years at December 31, 2022 and 5.3 years at March 31, 2022.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliations
Non-GAAP Financial Measures:
This document contains non-GAAP financial measures denoted as Underlying results and excluding HSBC and ISBC. Underlying results for any given reporting period exclude certain items that may occur in that period which Management does not consider indicative of the Company’s on-going financial performance. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors because they are used by our Management to evaluate our operating performance and make day-to-day operating decisions. In addition, we believe our Underlying results in any given reporting period reflect our on-going financial performance in that period and, accordingly, are useful to consider in addition to our GAAP financial results. We further believe the presentation of Underlying results increases comparability of period-to-period results. See the following pages for reconciliations of our non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
Other companies may use similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures that are calculated differently from the way we calculate such measures. Accordingly, our non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by such companies. We caution investors not to place undue reliance on such non-GAAP financial measures, but to consider them with the most directly comparable GAAP measures. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our results reported under GAAP.

While there is no assurance that any list of risks and uncertainties or risk factors is complete, important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include the following, without limitation:
•Negative economic, business and political conditions, including as a result of the interest rate environment, supply chain disruptions, inflationary pressures and labor shortages, that adversely affect the general economy, housing prices, the job market, consumer confidence and spending habits;
•The rate of growth in the economy and employment levels, as well as general business and economic conditions, and changes in the competitive environment;
•Our ability to implement our business strategy, including the cost savings and efficiency components, and achieve our financial performance goals, including the anticipated benefits of the HSBC and Investors transactions;
•The effects of geopolitical instability, including as a result of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the imposition of sanctions on Russia and other actions in response, on economic and market conditions, inflationary pressures and the interest rate environment, commodity price and foreign exchange rate volatility, and heightened cybersecurity risks;
•Our ability to meet heightened supervisory requirements and expectations;
•Liabilities and business restrictions resulting from litigation and regulatory investigations;
•Our capital and liquidity requirements under regulatory capital standards and our ability to generate capital internally or raise capital on favorable terms;
•The effect of changes in interest rates on our net interest income, net interest margin and our mortgage originations, mortgage servicing rights and mortgages held for sale;
•Changes in interest rates and market liquidity, as well as the magnitude of such changes, which may reduce interest margins, impact funding sources and affect the ability to originate and distribute financial products in the primary and secondary markets;
•The effect of changes in the level of checking or savings account deposits on our funding costs and net interest margin;
•Financial services reform and other current, pending or future legislation or regulation that could have a negative effect on our revenue and businesses;
•Environmental risks, such as physical or transitional risks associated with climate change and social and governance risks, that could adversely affect our reputation, operations, business, and customers.
•A failure in or breach of our operational or security systems or infrastructure, or those of our third party vendors or other service providers, including as a result of cyber-attacks; and
•Management’s ability to identify and manage these and other risks.
In addition to the above factors, we also caution that the actual amounts and timing of any future common stock dividends or share repurchases will be subject to various factors, including our capital position, financial performance, capital impacts of strategic initiatives, market conditions, receipt of required regulatory approvals and other regulatory considerations, as well as any other factors that our Board of Directors deems relevant in making such a determination. Therefore, there can be no assurance that we will repurchase shares from or pay any dividends to holders of our common stock, or as to the amount of any such repurchases or dividends.
More information about factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements can be found in the “Risk Factors” section in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
