On December 9, 2025, M&T Bank Corporation posted a Fourth Quarter 2025 investor presentation to its Investor Relations website and furnished it as Exhibit 99.1 under Regulation FD (Item 7.01).

The filing states that the presentation may be used in conversations with investors and analysts, and that the information is not deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act. The presentation itself is the substance of the filing and is a Q4 2025 outlook and performance review.

It also expects average loans of $137 to $138 billionb, average deposits of $163 to $164 billion, and a CET1 capital ratio of 10.75% to 11.00%, with share repurchase flexibility. Year-to-date 3Q25 figures show a net interest margin of 3.66%, an efficiency ratio of 56.3%, a net operating return on tangible common equity of 15.07%, and a CET1 ratio of 10.99%. The presentation also highlights credit trends and a disclosure on Tricolor Holdings, LLC, a subprime auto lender that filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy on September 10, 2025.

The company states that neither Wilmington Trust nor M&T Bank has credit exposure to Tricolor, that Wilmington Trust served in custodian and trustee roles on certain Tricolor facilities, and that it is not possible at this time to estimate any potential liability. Criticized C&I and CRE loans declined $584 million quarter over quarter to $7.8 billionc at 3Q25.
