Financial Highlights
Taxable-equivalent net interest income increased $15 million in the recent quarter as compared with the first quarter of 2025 reflecting an additional day of earnings, favorable asset repricing and a lower negative impact from interest rate swap agreements used for hedging purposes, partially offset by $20 million of lower taxable-equivalent interest income resulting from an alignment of amortization periods for certain municipal bonds obtained from the acquisition of People's United Financial, Inc.
Average loans in the recent quarter reflect higher average balances of consumer and residential real estate loans, partially offset by a decrease in the average balance of commercial real estate loans.
Average deposits increased in the recent quarter as compared with the first quarter of 2025, reflecting higher average savings and interest-checking deposits.
The increase in noninterest income reflects a rise in residential mortgage banking revenues and trust income as well as gains on the sales of an out-of-footprint loan portfolio of $15 million and a subsidiary that specialized in institutional services of $10 million.
The decline in noninterest expense was primarily attributed to lower salaries and employee benefits expense, reflecting seasonal expense recorded in the first quarter of 2025.
Reflecting improved asset quality the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans declined 2 basis points to 1.61% at June 30, 2025.
M&T repurchased 6,073,957 shares of its common stock during the recent quarter for a total cost of $1.1 billion, compared with 3,415,303 shares for a total cost of $662 million in the first quarter of 2025. Reflecting repurchases, M&T's CET1 capital ratio declined to an estimated 10.98% at June 30, 2025, representing a 52 basis-point decrease from 11.50% at March 31, 2025.
Chief Financial Officer Commentary
"M&T's consistent profitability has supported a significant return of capital to shareholders while maintaining resiliency entering the second half of the year. We are thrilled with a reduction of M&T's stress capital buffer and we remain committed to prudent risk management for the benefit of all of our stakeholders. Our teams continue to work with customers each and every day to provide solutions for their financial success.

A reconciliation of non-GAAP measures is included in the tables that accompany this release.
M&T consistently provides supplemental reporting of its results on a "net operating" or "tangible" basis, from which M&T excludes the after-tax effect of amortization of core deposit and other intangible assets (and the related goodwill and core deposit and other intangible asset balances, net of applicable deferred tax amounts) and expenses associated with merging acquired operations into M&T (when incurred), since such items are considered by management to be "nonoperating" in nature.

The provision for credit losses was $125 million in the second quarter of 2025 as compared with $130 million in the immediately preceding quarter and $150 million in the second quarter of 2024. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of loans outstanding decreased from 1.63% at March 31, 2025 to 1.61% at June 30, 2025 reflecting lower levels of criticized commercial real estate loans.

The No. 1 Cost Threatening Your Retirement Savings

Insurance costs have skyrocketed since the pandemic — and show few signs of slowing down. That makes it hard to plan for costs in retirement, as the goalposts keep moving. For You: Trending Now: Keep an eye on these three insurance costs in particular as you plan your retirement nest egg. Supplemental Medicare Coverage Yes, retirees become eligible for Medicare coverage at 65. However, it doesn't cover everything. 'The average American spends nearly $200,000 on healthcare expenses during their golden years,' noted Whitney Stidom, vice president of consumer enablement at eHealth Insurance. In fact, a 2025 study by the Employee Benefit Research Institute found that some couples need up to $428,000 to have a 90% chance of covering their healthcare costs in retirement. A new survey from eHealth found 76% of people underestimate (or don't know) the average cost of healthcare in retirement. 'Enrolling in Medicare Advantage is often affordable, and will limit maximum out-of-pocket costs for the year,' said Stidom. 'Plus, most Advantage plans come with prescription drug coverage. Some Medicare Advantage plans come with special benefits like discounted gym memberships, coverage for over-the-counter drugs and more.' To help prepare in advance for unpredictable healthcare and supplemental Medicare coverage costs, consider opening a health savings account (HSA). They offer the best tax benefits of any tax-advantaged account, as you can deduct the contributions, they compound tax-free, and you pay no taxes on withdrawals. I'm a Financial Expert: Long-Term Care Insurance Medicare doesn't cover long-term care — but it gets expensive, and fast. The '2025 Trends in Retirement Planning' study by the Journal of Financial Planning found that 40.7% of retirees carry long-term care insurance, and 44.9% pay for a rider on other insurance products. Unlike working people, retirees can't increase their income to offset rising costs. When insurance rates go up, retirees have to cut spending elsewhere to stay afloat — which can quickly downgrade their quality of life. Homeowners Insurance The last few years have not been kind to homeowners insurance clients. 'Currently the average homeowner is paying $2,802 for home insurance,' explained Susan Meyer, insurance analyst at The Zebra. 'In 2024, the average was $1,602 for the same coverage — a 74% increase in only a year.' Granted, most homeowners aren't actually paying 74% more for their policies after just one year. Many have downgraded coverage or increased their deductible just to afford policies at the new rates. Homeowners insurance may play a larger role in where Americans choose to retire in the coming years. Already, three of the four states with the oldest populations (Maine, West Virginia, Vermont and Florida) have below-average homeowners insurance premiums. Meyer noted that the exception, Florida, has an average premium of $3,333 given the high frequency of storm damage. Similarly, climate scientist Max Dugan-Knight at Deep Sky Research pointed to fire-prone areas in California, Oregon and Texas where private insurers have stopped issuing coverage altogether. 'State-backed FAIR plans and federal flood insurance program end up billing taxpayers rather than addressing the root problem that some homes are uninsurable,' he said. 'That forces all taxpayers to subsidize the few who live in the highest risk areas.' As you plan your retirement, consider factoring in insurance risk. Some higher-risk areas may become impractical to insure in the years to come.

Industry-Wide Tariffs Loom Over the Healthcare Sector. Here Are 2 Stocks That Can Weather the Storm.

Key Points President Trump's tariffs could erode healthcare companies' profits, but some may perform well regardless. Eli Lilly and Novartis have taken steps to mitigate the potential impact. Both drugmakers are innovative, deliver strong financial results, and have excellent dividends. 10 stocks we like better than Eli Lilly › President Donald Trump's trade policies have caused tumult on Wall Street. The president has pushed for aggressive tariffs on imported goods in an attempt to bring manufacturing jobs back to the country. Although there were hopes that certain sectors would be spared -- including healthcare -- it turns out that won't be the case. Higher duties on imports could increase companies' costs, which would squeeze their margins and bottom lines, and meaningfully hurt their stock performance. However, even with this threat, there are still some healthcare companies worth investing in, including Eli Lilly (NYSE: LLY) and Novartis (NYSE: NVS). 1. Eli Lilly Eli Lilly has been expanding its U.S.-based manufacturing capacity for years, but it has recently accelerated this effort. The pharmaceutical leader has now invested, or committed to invest, $50 billion to build or update manufacturing sites in the country since 2020, about half of which it announced during the first quarter. According to management, once it completes its ongoing projects, it will be able to manufacture 100% of medicines aimed at U.S. patients within the country while also increasing its exports. In other words, the drugmaker will be mostly insulated from the impact of Trump's tariffs. And there are other reasons to invest in Eli Lilly. Here are three: First, the company has demonstrated remarkable innovation in its core areas of diabetes and obesity in recent years. Its newer launches, Mounjaro and Zepbound, are already generating billions and allowing it to grow its revenue and earnings at a good rate. In the first quarter, its top line rose 45% year over year to $12.7 billion. Net income was $2.8 billion, 23% higher than the year-ago period. Results like these should be the norm in the next five years at least. Second, the company has an extensive pipeline. Lilly recently reported positive phase 3 results for an oral GLP-1 candidate, orforglipron. This was an important win for the company since its current GLP-1 medicines are administered subcutaneously, so orforglipron could attract some patients who want a more convenient option. And there are many other exciting candidates, even beyond diabetes and obesity care. Third, the company is an excellent dividend stock, despite its unimpressive forward yield of 0.8%. It has increased its payout by 102.7% in the past five years. But whether you seek growth or income, Eli Lilly is a top stock to buy now and hold for a long time, despite the threat of tariffs. 2. Novartis Novartis is following a similar blueprint to mitigate the impact of tariffs. The company announced it would invest $23 billion in the next five years to improve its U.S.-based manufacturing footprint. Although its results may suffer somewhat from the impact of tariffs in the meantime, the company should eventually be able to handle them, assuming the tariffs continue. It's another excellent healthcare stock to consider in this environment, particularly given its strong financial results and promising prospects. In the first quarter, net sales increased by 12% to $13.2 billion year over year. Net income was $4.5 billion, 22% higher than the year-ago period. Some might point out that Novartis is losing U.S. patent exclusivity for its heart failure medicine Entresto this year. In the first quarter, it was still its top-selling drug, generating $2.3 billion in sales, 20% higher than the prior-year quarter. This will be a significant loss, but management has prepared for it. Newer medicines should eventually replace Entresto, including Fabhalta, which treats paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (a rare blood disease), and cancer drugs Scemblix and Pluvicto. All of them first earned approval in the U.S. between 2021 and 2023. In the first quarter, Pluvicto, the best-selling of the trio, generated revenue of $371 million, a 20% year-over-year increase. Furthermore, Novartis' deep pipeline will lead to even more launches. The company currently has over 100 ongoing programs. Lastly, Novartis is also a strong income stock. The drugmaker has increased its dividend for 28 consecutive years and currently offers a forward yield of 3.3%, significantly higher than the S&P 500's average yield of 1.3%. It should deliver solid returns for patient investors, despite an upcoming major patent cliff and potential impacts from tariffs. Should you invest $1,000 in Eli Lilly right now?
