Key Points
- U.S. Bancorp (USB) reported diluted earnings per share of $0.97, excluding a one-time FDIC special assessment charge, resulting in $0.98 per share.
- Net interest income increased, supported by improved spread income and growth in fee-based businesses.
- Average total deposits increased by 2.2%, with continued growth in consumer deposits despite industry headwinds.
- The CET1 capital ratio increased by 30 basis points from the prior quarter and 120 basis points from last year, ending the quarter at 10.3%.
- Non-interest expense, as adjusted, decreased both on a linked-quarter and year-over-year basis, benefiting from cost synergies with Union Bank and prudent expense management.
- Non-performing assets increased by approximately 3.7% linked quarter, reflecting a slower pace of change.

- Average non-interest-bearing deposits decreased by 1.6% on a linked-quarter basis, indicating a continued emphasis on relationship-based deposit generation.
