Fifth Third Bancorp reported a net income of $128 million for the first quarter of 2026, translating to $0.15 per diluted share. This marks a decrease from $699 million, or $1.04 per diluted share, in the previous quarter and an increase from $478 million, or $0.71 per diluted share, in the same quarter last year. The quarter included two months of activity from the recently acquired Comerica, contributing to a 26% increase in net interest income to $1.939 billion compared to the prior quarter, driven by lower funding costs and improved loan growth. Noninterest income also rose by 10% from the previous quarter, totaling $895 million, reflecting ongoing business momentum and merger-related impacts.

Total average deposits increased by 24% compared to the prior quarter, reaching $209 billion, with period-end total deposits up 36% to $234 billion. The growth in deposits was largely attributed to the Comerica acquisition, which added $65.2 billion in deposits. However, noninterest expenses rose significantly, increasing 83% from the prior quarter to $2.395 billion, primarily due to merger-related costs. The provision for credit losses was $227 million, including an allowance established for Comerica, resulting in an ACL ratio of 1.79% at quarter-end.
