Net income dropped 17% YoY to $9.7 billion, or $3.12 per share, due to a net credit reserve build of $808 million. The bottom line was also impacted by net investment securities losses of $959 million which led to a $0.24 drop in EPS. Both revenue and earnings beat market estimates.
Revenues in the Consumer & Community Banking segment increased 14% while in Corporate & Investment Bank, revenues dropped 4%. Commercial Banking revenues were up 21%, driven by higher deposit margins, while Asset & Wealth Management revenues grew 6%, helped by deposits and loans on higher margins and balances.
