SECOND QUARTER 2025 NET INCOME OF $199 MILLION, $1.42 PER SHARE
Broad-based Loan Growth and Continued Strong Capitalization
Favorable Expense and Fee Income Trends Drove Higher Profitability
“Today we reported second quarter net income of $199 million, representing a 16% increase over the prior quarter,” said Curtis C. Farmer, Comerica Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Improved customer sentiment contributed to broad-based loan growth, offsetting modest deposit pressures and keeping net interest income flat to the first quarter and in line with guidance. Noninterest income growth drove higher revenue, and when coupled with lower noninterest expenses, contributed to an increase in PPNR(a). Credit quality remained a strength with migration in line with expectations and net charge-offs at the low end of our normal 20 to 40 basis points range. With a conservative approach to capital management, we produced an estimated CET1 capital ratio of 11.94%, even after higher loan growth, a compelling dividend and an increase in share repurchases.”

Second Quarter 2025 Compared to First Quarter 2025 Overview
Balance sheet items discussed in terms of average balances unless otherwise noted.
Loans increased $451 million to $50.7 billion.
•Increases of $139 million in Corporate Banking, $120 million in Wealth Management, $116 million in Environmental Services and smaller increases in other business lines, partially offset by a decline of $234 million in Equity Fund Services.
◦Period-end loans increased $1.3 billion to $51.2 billion, with growth in most lines of business, including increases of $252 million in general Middle Market, $218 million in Environmental Services and $154 million in both Equity Fund Services and Energy.
•Average yield on loans (including swaps) decreased 3 basis points to 6.10%, primarily reflecting a reduction in the benefit from Bloomberg Short-Term Bank Yield Index (BSBY) cessation.
Securities decreased $169 million to $14.8 billion, reflecting paydowns, partially offset by a decrease in average unrealized losses.
•Period-end unrealized losses on securities decreased $102 million to $2.4 billion.
Deposits decreased $653 million to $61.2 billion, with noninterest-bearing and interest-bearing deposits decreasing $373 million and $280 million, respectively.
•Noninterest-bearing deposits comprised 38% of total deposits, consistent with the prior quarter.
•Decreases of $195 million in Retail Banking, $135 million in Corporate Banking and smaller decreases in other business lines.
◦Period-end deposits decreased $1.5 billion to $60.0 billion, including decreases of $424 million in Retail Banking, $264 million in Technology and Life Sciences and $174 million in Entertainment, partially offset by a $168 million increase in Equity Fund Services.
▪Interest-bearing deposits decreased $1.0 billion, which included a $364 million decrease in brokered time deposits, while noninterest-bearing deposits decreased $459 million.
•The average cost of interest-bearing deposits increased 4 basis points to 2.69%, reflecting relationship-focused pricing.
Net interest income was stable at $575 million, while net interest margin decreased 2 basis points to 3.16%.
•Decrease in net interest margin driven by an increase in short-term borrowings to fund loan growth and the net impact of lower rates (including the impact of BSBY cessation), partially offset by a reduction in medium- and long-term debt as well as higher loan balances.
•Net interest income was positively impacted by one additional day in the quarter.
Provision for credit losses was $44 million.
•The allowance for credit losses was $735 million, or 1.44% as a percentage of total loans, which was consistent with prior quarter and reflected loan growth and continued economic uncertainty.
Noninterest income increased $20 million to $274 million.
•Increases of $11 million in capital markets income, $7 million in deferred compensation asset returns (mostly offset in noninterest expenses) and $5 million in fiduciary income.
Noninterest expenses decreased $23 million to $561 million.
•Decreases of $16 million in other noninterest expenses, $10 million in salaries and benefits expense (impacted by seasonal items) and $3 million in FDIC insurance expense, partially offset by increases of $3 million each in outside processing expense and advertising expense.
•Notable expense items in second quarter 2025 included a $13 million net benefit from settlements and dismissed litigation, $4 million in gains primarily on the sale of real estate and a $3 million interest recovery on a state tax matter.
Estimated common equity Tier 1 capital ratio* of 11.94%.
•Returned a total of $193 million to common shareholders through share repurchases and dividends.
◦Declared dividends of $93 million on common stock and repurchased $100 million of common stock (approximately 1.8 million shares) under the share repurchase program.

•Delivered a notice of redemption on June 10, 2025 notifying holders of the 4,000 outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock and corresponding depositary shares that all such shares would be redeemed, effective July 1, 2025, which resulted in a $400 million reclassification from shareholders' equity to other liabilities reflected in the consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2025.
◦Preferred stock impacts to net income attributable to common shares for the second quarter included $5 million in dividends and $6 million in costs pursuant to the notice of redemption.
•Common equity ratio of 8.80% and tangible common equity ratio* of 8.04%.

Second quarter 2025 net interest income remained stable from the prior quarter, and net interest margin decreased 2 basis points, compared to first quarter 2025.
•Interest income on loans increased $12 million and had no net impact on net interest margin, as the benefits of one additional day in the quarter and higher loan balances were partially offset by the net impact of lower rates and lower nonaccrual interest.
◦The benefit from BSBY cessation to net interest income decreased $5 million, while the benefit to net interest margin declined 3 basis points.
•Interest income on investment securities decreased $2 million due to a decline in securities balances with no impact to net interest margin.
•Interest income on short-term investments decreased $3 million, primarily reflecting a decrease in deposits with the Federal Reserve Bank with no impact to net interest margin.
•Interest expense on deposits increased $4 million and reduced net interest margin by 1 basis point, reflecting the impacts of higher pay rates on deposits and one additional day in the quarter, partially offset by lower average interest-bearing deposit balances.
•Interest expense on debt increased $3 million and reduced net interest margin by 1 basis point, driven by an increase in short-term borrowings to fund loan growth, partially offset by a decline in medium- and long-term debt.
The net impact of lower rates to second quarter 2025 net interest income was a decrease of $7 million compared to first quarter 2025, and the net impact of lower rates to second quarter 2025 net interest margin was a reduction of 4 basis points to net interest margin. One additional day in second quarter 2025 benefited net interest income by $6 million.
3
Credit Quality
“We believe our proven approach to credit and underwriting serves as a competitive advantage as evidenced by net charge-offs of 22 basis points, at the low end of our normal range," said Farmer. "Credit quality was relatively stable as customers remained responsive in managing persistent inflationary pressures and an evolving economic landscape. Our allowance for credit reserves was once again flat at 1.44% of total loans, as the level of overall uncertainty considered in our analysis remained similar to the first quarter. Provision expense increased with robust loan growth, and migration remained in line with expectations with an increase in criticized loans and lower nonperforming assets. We will continue to actively monitor our portfolio and feel we are well-positioned to support our customers as they navigate the dynamic environment.”

RECONCILIATIONS OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES AND REGULATORY RATIOS (unaudited)
Comerica Incorporated and Subsidiaries
Comerica believes non-GAAP measures are meaningful because they reflect adjustments commonly made by management, investors, regulators and analysts to evaluate the adequacy of common equity and performance trends. Pre-tax, pre-provision net revenue (PPNR) is a measure that Comerica uses to understand fundamental operating performance before credit-related and tax expenses. Common equity tier 1 capital ratio removes preferred stock from the Tier 1 capital ratio as defined by and calculated in conformity with bank regulations. Tangible common equity is used by Comerica to measure the quality of capital and the return relative to balance sheet risk. The tangible common equity ratio removes the effect of intangible assets from capital and total assets. Tangible common equity per share of common stock removes the effect of intangible assets from common shareholders' equity per share of common stock.
