Park believes that an evaluation of its ongoing operations would be difficult if the disclosure of its operating results were limited to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ('GAAP') financial measures, which include special items, such as a charge related to storm damage, a non-cash tax charge, and reductions in uncertain tax positions. Accordingly, in addition to disclosing its operating results determined in accordance with GAAP, Park discloses non-GAAP measures, including Adjusted EBITDA, and operating results that exclude special items in order to assist its shareholders and other readers in assessing the Company's operating performance, since the Company's on-going, normal business operations do not include such special items. The detailed operating information presented below includes a reconciliation of the non-GAAP operating results before special items to earnings determined in accordance with GAAP and a reconciliation of GAAP pre-tax earnings to Adjusted EBITDA. Such non-GAAP financial measures are provided to supplement the results provided in accordance with GAAP.

PPI Remained Unchanged
Pre-market futures are climbing into the green this morning, following a cooler-than-expected wholesale inflation report and better-than-expected financial Q2 earnings numbers out before the bell today. After starting off roughly -0.1% across the board, we're currently up +160 points on the Dow, +13 points on the S&P 500 and +14 on the Nasdaq. The small-cap Russell 2000, which yesterday shed -2% in regular trading, is +15 points presently. PPI Data Lower than Expected: A Pull-Forward in Effect? This morning, the latest Producer Price Index (PPI) was released for the month of June. Following yesterday's Consumer Price Index (CPI) — the retail print on monthly inflation — today's PPI reflects the wholesale side. Headline PPI for June, month over month, reached 0.0% — lower than the +0.2% expected and 30 basis points (bps) below the upwardly revised +0.3% from the prior month. Subtracting volatile food and energy costs on the producers' side, core PPI was also 0.0%, as was the latest ex-food, energy and trade read: 0.0%. These are down from the upward revisions on both metrics of +0.4% and +0.1%, respectively. These are also the coolest inflation prints on PPI since April of this year — the month President Trump brought tariffs to bear. PPI year over year on headline came in at +2.3%, 30 bps below expectations and the lowest since +2.1% reported in September of last year. Core PPI year over year reached +2.6%, a notch below estimates and -40 bps from the May print of +3.0%. Year over year, ex-food, energy and trade, we see +2.5% — 20 bps under estimates and the slimmest wholesale inflation print since November of 2023. Coming as these numbers are within the static of a U.S. tariff policy with constantly moving goalposts, we can attribute some of this surprise to a likely pull-forward from the months prior. Lower wholesale inflation — especially when we saw warmer-than-expected retail inflation in the CPI numbers yesterday — quite likely means supplies had been sufficient in previous months to not be beholden to higher sticker prices in the month of June. To the extent this data funnels into Fed-preferred metrics on overall inflation, we still see these PPI numbers above optimal inflation levels of +2.0%. In fact, since the Great Reopening as the Covid pandemic dimmed four years ago, we've never gotten back down to +2.0% inflation. Then again, as we mentioned in this space yesterday, +2.0% inflation is a notion very likely on borrowed time; once Fed Chair Jerome Powell is replaced, we expect the overall narrative to change. Q2 Earnings Roundup: Financials and More After Tuesday kicked off Q2 earnings season for some of the biggest banks on Wall Street, today we see a continuation: Bank of America (BAC) posted a 3-cent beat to 89 cents per share (6 cents higher than the year-ago quarter) for a +3.5% earnings surprise. Revenues, however, missed estimates slightly, -0.5%. Better-than-expected loan revenue has helped prop the stock in early trading. Perhaps the best Q2 earnings report so far belongs to Goldman Sachs (GS), which posted a +15.7% earnings surprise this morning: $10.91 per share versus $9.43 expected (which itself was +9.4% higher than the year-ago quarter) on $14.58 billion in quarterly revenues, which easily surpassed the $13.5 billion estimate by +8%. This is a good sign for investment banking overall. But as shares have already climbed +22.7% year to date, this morning's gains are so far slim. Morgan Stanley (MS) also represented strongly for investment banking this morning, with earnings of $2.13 per share on $16.79 billion in revenues for the quarter outpacing the Zacks consensus by +10.36% and +5.5%, respectively. Yet shares are selling a bit ahead of the opening bell, -1.8%, after having doubled the finance sector year to date. Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) shares are up +2% on its impressive Q2 earnings beat this morning, with earnings of $2.77 per share outperforming projections for $2.66 (though still down from $2.82 per share reported in the year-ago quarter). Revenues of $23.7 billion are up nicely from the $22.80 billion expected. CEO Joaquin Doato says he sees a stronger 2H2025 ahead for the pharma/household goods giant.

BAC Q2 Earnings Beat on Robust Trading & NII Growth, Stock Rises
Bank of America 's BAC second-quarter 2025 earnings of 89 cents per share surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 86 cents. The bottom line compared favorably with earnings of 83 cents in the prior-year quarter. BAC shares gained 1.3% in early trading in response to the better-than-expected quarterly results. A full day's trading session will depict a clearer picture. Behind BAC's Headline Numbers Bank of America recorded an improvement in trading numbers for the 13th straight quarter. Sales and trading revenues, excluding net DVA, grew 14.9% year over year to $5.38 billion. Fixed-income trading fees increased 18.6%, while equity trading income rose 9.6%. We had projected sales and trading revenues (excluding net DVA) of $4.92 billion. This, along with higher net interest income (NII), was the major revenue growth driver for Bank of America. NII grew on a year-over-year basis as fixed-rate asset repricing, and deposit and loan growth were partially offset by the impacts of lower interest rates. However, the investment banking (IB) performance was subdued once again. IB fees (in the Global Banking division) of $767 million declined 8.1% year over year. Equity and debt underwriting income declined 13.3% and 4.7%, respectively. Advisory revenues were down 9.6%. Provisions and non-interest expenses increased in the quarter on a year-over-year basis. The company's net income applicable to common shareholders grew 3.7% from the prior-year quarter to $6.83 billion. Our estimate for the metric was $6.76 billion. BAC's Revenues Improve, Expenses Rise Net revenues were $26.46 billion, which missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $26.59 billion. However, the top line increased 4.3% from the prior-year quarter. NII (fully taxable-equivalent basis) grew 6.9% year over year to $14.82 billion. Our estimate for NII was $14.93 billion. Net interest yield expanded 1 basis point to 1.94%. We expected the metric to be 2.03%. Non-interest income increased 1% from the prior-year quarter to $11.79 billion. This was driven by higher total fees and commissions. We had projected non-interest income of $11.78 billion. Non-interest expenses were $17.18 billion, up 5.4% year over year. The rise was due to an increase in almost all cost components except for professional fees. Our estimate for non-interest expenses was $16.96 billion. The efficiency ratio was 64.93%, up from 64.26% in the year-ago quarter. A rise in the efficiency ratio indicates a deterioration in profitability. Bank of America's Credit Quality: A Mixed Bag Provision for credit losses was $1.59 billion, up 5.6% from the prior-year quarter. We estimated the metric to be $1.54 billion. Net charge-offs declined marginally year over year to $1.53 billion. As of June 30, 2025, non-performing loans and leases as a percentage of total loans were 0.52%, unchanged year over year. BAC's Capital Position Strong Book value per share as of June 30, 2025, was $37.13 compared with $34.39 a year ago. Tangible book value per share was $27.71, up from $25.37 a year ago. At the end of June 2025, the common equity tier 1 capital ratio (advanced approach) was 13%, compared with 13.5% as of June 30, 2024. BAC's Share Repurchase Update In the reported quarter, the company repurchased shares worth $5.3 billion. Our Take on Bank of America Bank of America's focus on digitizing and expanding operations, decent loan growth and relatively higher interest rates are likely to keep supporting growth. However, elevated expenses and a challenging operating backdrop pose major headwinds. Currently, BAC carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here. Performance & Earnings Release Date of BAC's Peers Solid trading and IB performance, and impressive growth in credit card and wholesale loans drove JPMorgan 's JPM second-quarter 2025 adjusted earnings of $4.96 per share. The bottom line handily surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $4.51. This excluded an income tax benefit of $774 million. Including the one-time gain, JPMorgan's earnings were $5.24 per share. Markets revenues exceeded management's expectations of growth in the mid to high-single-digit range. The metric jumped 15% year over year to $8.9 billion. JPMorgan's IB business performance was also far more robust than expected by management. Total IB fees (in the Commercial & Investment Bank segment) were up 7% from the prior-year quarter to $2.51 billion. Truist Financial Corporation TFC is slated to report quarterly results on July 18. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for Truist's second-quarter earnings has been revised downward over the past seven days. (Stay up-to-date with all quarterly releases: See Zacks Earnings Calendar.)
