Summary

JPMorgan Chase & Co. reported a net income of $8.3 billion, or $2.63 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2022. Total net revenue decreased by 5% year-over-year to $30.7 billion, primarily driven by a 13% decline in noninterest revenue, which was impacted by lower investment banking fees and losses in Credit Adjustments & Other within the Corporate & Investment Bank (CIB). Conversely, net interest income rose 8% to $13.9 billion, benefiting from balance sheet growth and higher interest rates. The firm saw a significant increase in the provision for credit losses to $1.5 billion, a reversal from the prior year's net benefit of $4.2 billion. This was largely due to a $902 million addition to the allowance for credit losses, reflecting an increased weighting of adverse economic scenarios given inflation, monetary policy shifts, and geopolitical risks, including the war in Ukraine. Despite lower revenues, the firm maintained strong capital ratios, with a CET1 capital ratio of 11.9%. The Consumer & Community Banking segment demonstrated resilience with a 23% return on equity, driven by strong deposit growth and card sales volume.
