Summary
Summary of the 10-Q filed August 6, 2024. Cited figures are marked; the original filing is the authoritative source.
Fifth Third Bancorp (FITB) reported a slight decrease in net income available to common shareholders for the second quarter of 2024 compared to the same period in the prior year, driven by lower net interest income on an FTE basis.
This was primarily attributed to higher funding costs and deposit migration into higher-yielding products, although this was partially offset by increased yields on loans and securities. The provision for credit losses significantly decreased year-over-year, reflecting an improvement in the economic forecast and lower period-end loan balances. Noninterest income saw a decline, mainly due to lower leasing business revenue and mortgage banking net revenue, partially offset by growth in wealth and asset management revenue.
Noninterest expense remained relatively flat year-over-year. The company also announced settlements with the CFPB totaling $20 milliona related to consumer sales incentives and auto lending practices.
Capital ratios remain strong, exceeding regulatory requirements. Subsequent to quarter-end, FITB entered into another accelerated share repurchase agreement for $200 millionb.

Frequently Asked Questions
What impacted Fifth Third Bancorp's net interest income in the second quarter of 2024?
Net interest income on an FTE basis decreased by 5% to $1.39 billion in Q2 2024 compared to $1.46 billion in Q2 2023. This decrease was primarily driven by higher funding costs due to increases in market interest rates and deposit balance migration into higher-yielding products. These factors were partially offset by increases in yields on average loans and leases and average taxable securities.
What are the key outcomes of the CFPB settlements?
Fifth Third Bancorp agreed to resolve litigation with the CFPB concerning consumer sales incentives and auto lending practices. The settlements involve a $15 million civil penalty related to consumer sales incentives and maintaining existing policies, along with a $5 million civil penalty related to collateral protection insurance on certain auto loans. The company also agreed to provide remediation plans for certain customers in both instances.
How did the Bancorp's capital position change in the second quarter?
Fifth Third Bancorp maintained strong capital ratios. As of June 30, 2024, the CET1 capital ratio was 10.62%, the Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio was 11.93%, the Total risk-based capital ratio was 13.95%, and the Leverage ratio was 9.07%. These ratios exceed regulatory minimums and the Bancorp's stress capital buffer requirement.

What was the trend in noninterest income and expense for the quarter?
Noninterest income decreased by 4% to $695 million in Q2 2024 compared to $726 million in Q2 2023.
