Outlook and guidance

• FY26 guidance remains unchanged: FTE NII ~$2.4B ±2%; noninterest income $515M-$525M; noninterest expense $1.435B-$1.455B.

• Guidance targets >15% YoY EPS growth, positive operating leverage and 6%-8% end-period loan growth; full-year results are expected to produce record EPS.

• FY26 net charge-off ratio guidance is 0.25%-0.30%; provision for credit losses $135M-$145M; GAAP/adjusted FTE tax rates 22%/24%.

• NII is expected near the lower end of its range, with 4Q NII dollars expected to rise from 3Q and margin potentially improving modestly; expense is expected near the lower end of guidance.

• Assumptions include no Fed rate actions in 4Q26, competitive deposit pricing and relatively stable funding mix; 4Q mid-single-digit loan growth would place FY growth near the lower end of its range.
