- Net income of $5.8 billion, or $1.48 per diluted common share, included:
- $349 million, or $0.09 per share, of discrete tax benefits related to the resolution of prior period tax matters
- The sale of ~$2 billion of private equity investments, which had a minimal impact to net income, but resulted in an increase of ~14 bps to our Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) ratio3
- Revenue of $20.9 billion, up 7%
- Net interest income of $13.1 billion, up 8%
- Noninterest income of $7.8 billion, up 4%
- Noninterest expense of $13.1 billion, down 8%
- Pre-taxpre-provision profit4 of $7.7 billion, up 47%
- Effective income tax rate of 12.3% included $349 million of discrete tax benefits
- Average loans of $943.2 billion
- Average deposits of $1.3 trillion, down 5%
- Provision for credit losses5 of $1.2 billion
- Total net loan charge-offs of $850 million, up $451 million, with net loan charge-offs of 0.36% of average loans (annualized)
- Allowance for credit losses for loans of $15.1 billion, up $1.8 billion
- CET1 capital of $136.2 billion3
- CET1 ratio of 11.0% under the Standardized Approach and 12.0% under the Advanced Approach3
- Liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) of 123%6
Comparisons in the bullet points are for 3Q23 versus 3Q22, unless otherwise noted.
- Tangible common equity and return on average tangible common equity (ROTCE) are non-GAAP financial measures. For additional information, including a corresponding reconciliation to GAAP financial measures, see the "Tangible Common Equity" table on page 17.
- The efficiency ratio is noninterest expense divided by total revenue.
- The Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) ratio calculated under the Standardized Approach is our binding CET1 ratio. See page 18 for additional information regarding CET1 capital and ratios. CET1 is a preliminary estimate.
- Pre-taxpre-provision profit (PTPP) is total revenue less noninterest expense. Management believes that PTPP is a useful financial measure because it enables investors and others to assess the Company's ability to generate capital to cover credit losses through a credit cycle.
- Includes provision for credit losses for loans, debt securities, and other financial assets.
- Liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) represents average high-quality liquid assets divided by average projected net cash outflows, as each is defined under the LCR rule. LCR is a preliminary estimate.
- Represents total loss absorbing capacity (TLAC) divided by risk-weighted assets (RWAs), which is our binding TLAC ratio, determined by using the greater of RWAs under the Standardized and Advanced Approaches. TLAC is a preliminary estimate.

- CET1 ratio up ~70 bps from 3Q22 and up ~30 bps from 2Q23, which included:
- A decline in accumulated other comprehensive income driven by higher interest rates and wider mortgage-backed securities spreads, which resulted in declines in the CET1 ratio of 8 bps from 3Q22 and 16 bps from 2Q23
- A ~14 bps increase resulting from the 3Q23 sale of certain private equity investments and the resulting removal of the related goodwill and other intangible assets on investments in consolidated portfolio companies
