FULL-YEAR 2024 NET INCOME OF $698 MILLION, $5.02 PER SHARE
FOURTH QUARTER 2024 NET INCOME OF $170 MILLION, $1.22 PER SHARE
Enhanced Liquidity Through Lower Wholesale Funding and Favorable Customer Deposit Trends
Strong Credit Quality and Capital Position with Resumption of Share Repurchases
“In 2024, we took steps to further enhance our strong foundation as we improved our capital and liquidity positions while demonstrating credit and expense discipline,” said Curtis C. Farmer, Comerica Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Although loan demand remained muted throughout the year, our deliberate deposit focus drove improved customer balances, enabling a meaningful reduction in wholesale funding and benefiting net interest income. Successful execution of our expense calibration efforts demonstrated our commitment to driving efficiency while creating capacity for strategic and risk management investments, and credit quality remained strong with net charge-offs of 10 bps. Despite ongoing volatility in the rate curve, we grew our book value and resumed returning capital to shareholders through share repurchases.”
“In the fourth quarter, we continued to see favorable deposit trends with higher customer balances while strategically managing deposit pricing. As expected, loans were pressured by paydowns in Commercial Real Estate, but we saw promising signals across other businesses that support our outlook for growth in 2025. Although some uncertainty remains, we believe customer sentiment is generally more optimistic about the future of the economy and plans for increased investment in their businesses. Net charge-offs for the quarter remained low, and with a conservative approach to capital management, we produced an estimated CET1 of 11.89%, still well above our 10% strategic target.”

(b)The cessation of the Bloomberg Short-Term Bank Yield Index (BSBY) announced in November 2023 resulted in the de-designation of certain interest rate swaps requiring reclassification of amounts recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) into earnings. All impacted swaps were re-designated as of April 1, 2024; therefore, settlement of interest payments for months after re-designation were recorded as net interest income.

Amounts shown in parentheses below represent the impacts to net interest income and net interest margin, respectively, with impacts of hedging program and BSBY cessation included with rate.
•Interest income on loans decreased $3 million and net interest margin remained stable, driven by the net impact of lower rates (-$4 million, -3 basis points) and lower loan balances (-$5 million, -1 basis point), partially offset by higher nonaccrual interest (+$6 million, +4 basis points).
◦BSBY cessation positively impacted net interest income and net interest margin by $16 million and 9 basis points for fourth quarter 2024, compared to a negative impact of $9 million and 5 basis points for third quarter 2024.
•Interest income on investment securities increased $1 million and improved net interest margin by 2 basis points due to higher rates (+$3 million, +2 basis points), partially offset by a decline in securities balances (-$2 million).
•Interest income on short-term investments decreased $13 million and reduced net interest margin by 6 basis points, primarily reflecting a decrease of $231 million in deposits with the Federal Reserve Bank (-$3 million, -1 basis point) and lower short-term rates (-$10 million, -5 basis points).
•Interest expense on deposits decreased $44 million and improved net interest margin by 23 basis points, reflecting lower pay rates on deposits (+$29 million, +15 basis points) and lower average interest-bearing deposit balances (+$15 million, +8 basis points, which included decreased brokered time deposits).
•Interest expense on debt decreased $12 million and improved net interest margin by 7 basis points, driven by lower rates (+$11 million, +6 basis points) and a decline of $151 million in medium- and long-term debt (+$1 million, +1 basis point).
The net impact of lower rates to fourth quarter 2024 net interest income was an increase of $29 million compared to third quarter 2024 and the net impact of lower rates to fourth quarter 2024 net interest margin was an increase of 15 basis points compared to third quarter 2024.
Credit Quality
“Credit quality remained strong with low net charge-offs of 13 basis points," said Farmer. "Persistent inflation and elevated rates continued to pressure customer profitability and drove expected normalization in both criticized and nonperforming loans. This modest migration was expected and already factored into our reserves, and as a result, our allowance for credit losses remained relatively flat at 1.44% of total loans. We continue to feel that our highly regarded approach to credit positions us well to support our customers and navigate future migration.”

Comerica is one of the 25 largest U.S. commercial bank financial holding companies and focuses on building relationships and helping people and businesses be successful. Comerica provides over 380 banking centers across the country with locations in Arizona, California, Florida, Michigan and Texas. Founded 175 years ago in Detroit, Michigan, Comerica continues to expand into new regions, including its Southeast Market, based in North Carolina, and Mountain West Market in Colorado. Comerica has offices in 17 states and services 14 of the 15 largest U.S. metropolitan areas, as well as Canada and Mexico.
This press release contains (and Comerica’s related upcoming conference call and live webcast will discuss) both financial measures based on accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) and non-GAAP based financial measures, which are used where management believes it to be helpful in understanding Comerica's results of operations or financial position. Where non-GAAP financial measures are used, the comparable GAAP financial measure, as well as a reconciliation to the comparable GAAP financial measure, can be found in this press release or in the investor relations portions of Comerica’s website, www.comerica.com. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies.

Any statements in this press release that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Words such as achieve, anticipate, aspire, assume, believe, can, confident, continue, could, designed, enhances, estimate, expect, feel, forecast, forward, future, goal, grow, initiative, intend, look forward, maintain, may, might, mission, model, objective, opportunity, outcome, on track, outlook, plan, position, potential, project, propose, remain, seek, should, strategy, strive, target, trend, until, well-positioned, will, would or similar expressions, as they relate to Comerica or its management, or to economic, market or other environmental conditions, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are predicated on the beliefs and assumptions of Comerica's management based on information known to Comerica's management as of the date of this press release and do not purport to speak as of any other date. Forward-looking statements may include descriptions of plans and objectives of Comerica's management for future or past operations, products or services, and forecasts of Comerica's revenue, earnings or other measures of economic performance, including statements of profitability, business segments and subsidiaries as well as estimates of credit trends and global stability. Such statements reflect the view of Comerica's management as of this date with respect to future events and are subject to risks and uncertainties. Should one or more of these risks materialize or should underlying beliefs or assumptions prove incorrect, Comerica's actual results could differ materially from those discussed. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include credit risks (changes in customer behavior; unfavorable developments concerning credit quality; and declines or other changes in the businesses or industries of Comerica's customers); market risks (changes in monetary and fiscal policies and fluctuations in interest rates and their impact on deposit pricing); liquidity risks (Comerica's ability to maintain adequate sources of funding and liquidity; reductions in Comerica's credit rating; and the interdependence of financial service companies and their soundness); technology risks (cybersecurity risks and heightened legislative and regulatory focus on cybersecurity and data privacy); operational risks (operational, systems or infrastructure failures; reliance on other companies to provide certain key components of business infrastructure; the impact of legal and regulatory proceedings or determinations; losses due to fraud; and controls and procedures failures); compliance risks (changes in regulation or oversight, or changes in Comerica’s status with respect to existing regulations or oversight; the effects of stringent capital requirements; and the impacts of future legislative, administrative or judicial changes to tax regulations); strategic risks (damage to Comerica's reputation; Comerica's ability to utilize technology to efficiently and effectively develop, market and deliver new products and services; competitive product and pricing pressures among financial institutions within Comerica's markets; the implementation of Comerica's strategies and business initiatives; management's ability to maintain and expand customer relationships; management's ability to retain key officers and employees; and any future strategic acquisitions or divestitures); and other general risks (changes in general economic, political or industry conditions; negative effects from inflation; the effectiveness of methods of reducing risk exposures; the effects of catastrophic events; physical or transition risks related to climate change; changes in accounting standards; the critical nature of Comerica's accounting policies, processes and management estimates; the volatility of Comerica’s stock price; and that an investment in Comerica’s equity securities is not insured or guaranteed by the FDIC). Comerica cautions that the foregoing list of factors is not all-inclusive. For discussion of factors that may cause actual results to differ from expectations, please refer to Comerica’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. In particular, please refer to “Item 1A. Risk Factors” beginning on page 14 of Comerica's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Comerica does not undertake to update forward-looking statements to reflect facts, circumstances, assumptions or events that occur after the date the forward-looking statements are made. For any forward-looking statements made in this press release or in any documents, Comerica claims the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

RECONCILIATIONS OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES AND REGULATORY RATIOS (unaudited) |
Comerica Incorporated and Subsidiaries | | | | |
| | | | | |
Comerica believes non-GAAP measures are meaningful because they reflect adjustments commonly made by management, investors, regulators and analysts to evaluate the adequacy of common equity and performance trends. Comerica believes adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per share, adjusted ROA and adjusted ROE provide a greater understanding of ongoing operations and financial results by removing the impact of notable items from net income, net income available to common shareholders, average assets and average common shareholders’ equity. Notable items are meaningful because they provide greater detail of how certain events or initiatives affect Comerica’s results for a more informed understanding of those results. Tangible common equity is used by Comerica to measure the quality of capital and the return relative to balance sheet risk.

(a)Securities repositioning relates to losses incurred on the sale of $827 million of Treasury securities that were replaced with higher-yielding Treasury securities with a duration of 1.9 years.
(b)The cessation of BSBY announced in November 2023 resulted in the de-designation of certain interest rate swaps requiring reclassification of amounts recognized in AOCI into earnings. Settlement of interest payments and changes in fair value for each impacted swap were recorded as risk management hedging losses until the swap was re-designated. All impacted swaps were re-designated as of April 1, 2024; therefore, settlement of interest payments for months after re-designation were recorded as net interest income.
(c)Additional FDIC insurance accrual adjustments resulting from the FDIC Board of Directors’ November 2023 approval of a special assessment to recover the loss to the Deposit Insurance Fund following the failures of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank.
(d)Related to certain initiatives to transform the retail banking delivery model, align corporate facilities and optimize technology platforms, as well as calibrate expenses to enhance earnings power while creating capacity for strategic and risk management initiatives.
