Signature Bank Portfolio Acquisition
On October 2, 2023, PNC acquired a portfolio of capital commitments facilities from Signature Bridge Bank, N.A. through an agreement with the FDIC as receiver of the former Signature Bank, New York. The acquired portfolio represented approximately $16.0 billion in total commitments, including approximately $9.0 billion of funded loans, at the time of acquisition.
Workforce Reduction
During the fourth quarter of 2023, PNC implemented a workforce reduction that is expected to reduce 2024 personnel expense by approximately $325 million, on a pre-tax basis. PNC incurred expenses of $150 million in the fourth quarter of 2023 in connection with this workforce reduction.

FDIC Special Assessment
In November 2023, the FDIC approved a final rule to implement a special assessment to recover the loss to the Deposit Insurance Fund associated with protecting uninsured depositors following the closures of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank. In the first quarter of 2024, PNC incurred an additional pre-tax expense of $130 million related to the increase in the FDIC’s expected losses. PNC incurred a pre-tax expense of $515 million during the fourth quarter of 2023.

Income Statement Highlights
Net income of $1.3 billion, or $3.10 per diluted common share, for the first quarter of 2024 increased $461 million, or 52%, compared to $0.9 billion, or $1.85 per diluted common share, for the fourth quarter of 2023, due to lower noninterest expense and a lower provision for credit losses, partially offset by lower net interest and noninterest income.
•For the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2023:
•Total revenue decreased $216 million, or 4%, to $5.1 billion.
•Net interest income of $3.3 billion decreased $139 million, or 4%, primarily due to increased funding costs, lower loan balances and one fewer day in the quarter.
•Net interest margin declined 9 basis points to 2.57%, primarily as a result of higher funding costs.
•Noninterest income decreased $77 million, or 4%, primarily due to lower capital markets and advisory activity and seasonal declines in card and cash management fees. The first quarter also included negative Visa Class B-1 derivative fair value adjustments of $7 million. Visa Class B-1 derivative fair value adjustments were negative $100 million in the fourth quarter of 2023.
•Provision for credit losses of $155 million in the first quarter of 2024 reflected portfolio activity and improved macroeconomic factors. The fourth quarter of 2023 included a provision for credit losses of $232 million.
•Noninterest expense decreased $740 million, or 18%, to $3.3 billion, driven by lower or stable expenses across all categories, reflecting a continued focus on expense management. The first quarter of 2024 included an additional pre-tax expense of $130 million related to the increase in the FDIC’s expected losses. The fourth quarter of 2023 included $515 million pertaining to the FDIC special assessment as well as $150 million of workforce reduction charges.
Net income decreased $350 million, or 21%, compared to $1.7 billion, or $3.98 per diluted common share, for the first quarter of 2023 driven by lower net interest and noninterest income, partially offset by a lower provision for credit losses.
•For the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023:
•Total revenue decreased $458 million, or 8%, to $5.1 billion.
•Net interest income decreased $321 million, or 9%, as the benefit of higher interest-earning asset yields was more than offset by increased funding costs.
•Net interest margin decreased 27 basis points, primarily as a result of higher funding costs.
•Noninterest income decreased $137 million, or 7%, and included a decline in private equity revenue and residential and commercial mortgage revenue, partially offset by growth in card and cash management and asset management and brokerage fees. Visa Class B-1 derivative fair value adjustments were negative $45 million in the first quarter of 2023.
•Provision for credit losses of $155 million for the first three months of 2024 reflected portfolio activity and improved macroeconomic factors. The first three months of 2023 included a provision for credit losses of $235 million.
•Noninterest expense was stable compared to the first three months of 2023. The first quarter of 2024 included an additional pre-tax expense of $130 million related to the increase in the FDIC’s expected losses.
For additional detail, see the Consolidated Income Statement Review section of this Financial Review.

Balance Sheet Highlights
Our balance sheet was strong and well positioned at March 31, 2024. In comparison to December 31, 2023:
•Total assets of $566.2 billion increased modestly primarily due to higher balances held with the Federal Reserve Bank, partially offset by lower securities and loan balances.
•Total loans decreased $1.7 billion, or 1%, to $319.8 billion.
•Total commercial loans decreased $0.7 billion, to $218.8 billion, driven by paydowns outpacing new production and lower utilization of loan commitments.
•Total consumer loans declined $1.0 billion to $100.9 billion, as paydowns outpaced new originations and draws on existing accounts.
•Investment securities decreased $2.1 billion, or 2%, to $130.5 billion, primarily due to prepayments and maturities outpacing purchases.
•Interest-earning deposits with banks, primarily with the Federal Reserve Bank, increased $9.8 billion, or 22%, to $53.6 billion, primarily due to an increase in deposits and a decrease in securities and loans balances.
•Total deposits increased $4.2 billion, to $425.6 billion, reflecting higher commercial and consumer deposits. Noninterest-bearing deposit balances decreased driven by a decline in commercial noninterest-bearing balances. Interest-bearing deposits increased reflecting higher commercial and consumer interest-bearing balances.
•Borrowed funds were largely stable at $72.7 billion, as parent company senior debt issuances were offset by lower FHLB borrowings.
For additional detail, see the Consolidated Balance Sheet Review section of this Financial Review.
Credit Quality Highlights
The first quarter of 2024 reflected stable credit quality performance.
•At March 31, 2024 compared to December 31, 2023:
•Overall loan delinquencies of $1.3 billion decreased $109 million, or 8%, driven by lower consumer and commercial loan delinquencies.
•The ACL related to loans, which consists of the ALLL and the allowance for unfunded lending related commitments, totaled $5.4 billion and $5.5 billion at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, this reserve was driven by improved macroeconomic factors as well as portfolio activity. ACL to total loans was 1.68% and 1.70% at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
•Nonperforming assets increased $199 million, or 9%, to $2.4 billion, primarily due to higher commercial real estate nonperforming loans.
•Net charge-offs of $243 million, or 0.30% of average loans, in the first quarter of 2024 increased $43 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2023 primarily due to higher commercial net loan charge-offs.
For additional detail see the Credit Risk Management portion of the Risk Management section of this Financial Review.
Capital and Liquidity Highlights
We maintained our strong capital and liquidity positions.
•Common shareholders’ equity of $45.1 billion at March 31, 2024, increased $0.2 billion, compared to December 31, 2023 due to the benefit of net income, partially offset by common dividends paid, a decline in AOCI and common share repurchases.
•In the first quarter of 2024, PNC returned $0.8 billion of capital to shareholders, reflecting more than $0.6 billion of dividends on common shares and more than $0.1 billion of common share repurchases, representing 0.9 million shares.
•Consistent with the SCB framework, which allows for capital return in amounts in excess of the SCB minimum levels, our Board of Directors has authorized a repurchase framework under the previously approved repurchase program of up to 100 million common shares, of which approximately 44% were still available for repurchase at March 31, 2024. In light of the Federal banking agencies proposed rules to adjust the Basel III capital framework, second quarter 2024 share repurchase activity is expected to approximate recent quarterly average share repurchase levels. PNC continues to evaluate the potential impact of the proposed rules and may adjust share repurchase activity depending on market and economic conditions, as well as other factors. PNC’s SCB for the four-quarter period beginning October 1, 2023 is the regulatory minimum of 2.5%.
•On April 3, 2024, the PNC Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend on common stock of $1.55 per share to be paid on May 6, 2024 to shareholders of record at the close of business April 15, 2024.
•Our CET1 ratio increased to 10.1% at March 31, 2024 from 9.9% at December 31, 2023.
•PNC elected a five-year transition provision effective March 31, 2020 to delay through December 31, 2021 the full impact of the CECL standard on regulatory capital, followed by a three-year transition period. Effective for the first quarter of 2022, PNC is now in the three-year transition period, and the full impact of the CECL standard is being
4 The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q
phased-in to regulatory capital through December 31, 2024. The fully implemented ratios reflect the full impact of CECL and exclude the benefits of this transition provision. The estimated CET1 fully implemented ratio was 10.0% at March 31, 2024 compared to 9.8% at December 31, 2023.
See the Liquidity and Capital Management portion of the Risk Management section of this Financial Review for more detail on our liquidity and capital actions as well as our capital ratios.
PNC’s ability to take certain capital actions, including returning capital to shareholders, is subject to PNC meeting or exceeding an SCB established by the Federal Reserve Board in connection with the Federal Reserve Board’s CCAR process. For additional information, see Capital Management in the Risk Management section in this Financial Review and the Supervision and Regulation section in our 2023 Form 10-K.
Business Outlook
Statements regarding our business outlook are forward-looking within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Our forward-looking financial statements are subject to the risk that economic and financial market conditions will be substantially different than those we are currently expecting. These statements are based on our views that:
•PNC’s baseline forecast is for slower economic growth in 2024 as consumer spending growth slows and higher interest rates remain a drag on the economy. The ongoing strength of the labor market will continue to support consumer spending. The FOMC is indicating that it will start to cut the federal funds rate later this year, with rate cuts supporting economic growth toward the end of 2024.
•Real GDP growth this year will be close to its trend of 2% and the unemployment rate will increase modestly to just above 4% by the end of 2024. Inflation will continue to slow as wage pressures abate, moving back to the Federal Reserve’s 2% long-term objective by the end of 2025.
•PNC expects the federal funds rate to remain unchanged between 5.25% and 5.50% through at least the first half of 2024, with federal funds rate cuts starting in the third quarter as inflationary pressures ease further. PNC expects two federal funds rate cuts in 2024, with the rate ending this year in a range between 4.75% and 5.00%.
For the second quarter of 2024, compared to the first quarter of 2024, we expect:
•Average loans to be stable,
•Net interest income to be down approximately 1%,
•Fee income to be up 1% to 2%,
•Other noninterest income to be $150 million to $200 million,
•Revenue to be stable,
•Core noninterest expense to be up 2% to 4%, and
•Net loan charge-offs to be $225 million to $275 million.
For the full year 2024, compared to the full year of 2023, we expect:
•Average loans to be up approximately 1%,
•Net interest income to be down 4% to 5%,
•Noninterest income to be up 4% to 6%,
•Revenue to be stable to down 2%,
•Core noninterest expense to be stable, and
•The effective tax rate to be approximately 18.5%.
Core noninterest expense guidance excludes an additional pre-tax expense of $130 million related to the increase in the FDIC’s expected losses in the first quarter of 2024, and $515 million pertaining to the FDIC special assessment as well as $150 million of workforce reduction charges incurred in the fourth quarter of 2023. See the Statistical Information (Unaudited) – Reconciliation of Core Noninterest Expense (non-GAAP) section of this Report. Other noninterest income, noninterest income and revenue guidance excludes net securities gains and Visa activity.
We are unable to provide a meaningful or accurate reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP measures, without unreasonable effort, to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing and amounts necessary for the reconciliation when such amounts are subject to events that cannot be reasonably predicted, as noted in our Cautionary Statement. Accordingly, we cannot address the probable significance of unavailable information.
See the Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information section in this Financial Review and Item 1A Risk Factors included in our 2023 Form 10-K for other factors that could cause future events to differ, perhaps materially, from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements.

CONSOLIDATED INCOME STATEMENT REVIEW
Our Consolidated Income Statement is presented in Item 1 of this Report.
Net income of $1.3 billion, or $3.10 per diluted common share, for the first quarter of 2024 increased $461 million, or 52%, compared to $0.9 billion, or $1.85 per diluted common share, for the fourth quarter of 2023, due to lower noninterest expense and a lower provision for credit losses, partially offset by lower net interest and noninterest income. Net income decreased $350 million, or 21%, compared to $1.7 billion, or $3.98 per diluted common share for the same period in 2023, driven by lower net interest and noninterest income, partially offset by a lower provision for credit losses.

(a)Interest income calculated as taxable-equivalent interest income. To provide more meaningful comparisons of interest income and yields for all interest-earning assets, as well as net interest margins, we use interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis in calculating average yields and net interest margins by increasing the interest income earned on tax-exempt assets to make it fully equivalent to interest income earned on taxable investments. This adjustment is not permitted under GAAP on the Consolidated Income Statement. For more information, see Reconciliation of Taxable-Equivalent Net Interest Income (non-GAAP) in the Statistical Information (Unaudited) section in Item 1 of this Report.
(b)Interest income from Interest-earning deposits with banks primarily includes interest earned on our balances held with the Federal Reserve Bank and is reported as Other interest income on our Consolidated Income Statement.
Changes in net interest income and margin result from the interaction of the volume and composition of interest-earning assets and related yields, interest-bearing liabilities and related rates paid, and noninterest-bearing sources of funding. See the Statistical Information (Unaudited) – Average Consolidated Balance Sheet And Net Interest Analysis section of this Report for additional information.
Net interest income decreased $139 million, or 4%, for the first quarter of 2024 compared to the fourth quarter of 2023, primarily due to increased funding costs, lower loan balances and one fewer day in the quarter. Net interest income decreased $321 million, or 9%, for the first three months of 2024 compared to the same period in 2023, as the benefit of higher interest-earning asset yields was more than offset by increased funding costs. Net interest margin declined 9 basis points compared to the fourth quarter of 2023 and 27 basis points compared to the first quarter of 2023, primarily as a result of higher funding costs.
Average investment securities of $135.4 billion in the first quarter of 2024 declined $2.0 billion, or 1%, and $8.0 billion, or 6%, from the fourth quarter of 2023 and the first quarter of 2023, respectively. In both comparisons, limited purchase activity was more than offset by portfolio paydowns and maturities. Average investment securities represented 26% of average interest-earning assets for the first quarter of 2024 compared to 27% for the fourth quarter of 2023, and 28% for the first quarter of 2023.
Average loans for the first quarter of 2024 decreased $4.0 billion, compared to the fourth quarter of 2023, due to lower commercial and consumer loans. Compared to the first quarter of 2023, average loans decreased $4.9 billion, or 2%, primarily due to lower commercial loans. Average loans represented 63% of average interest-earning assets for both the first quarter of 2024 and the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to 64% for the first quarter of 2023.
6 The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q
Average interest-earning deposits with banks for the first quarter of 2024 increased $5.6 billion, or 13%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2023 driven by lower loan balances and higher borrowed funds, partially offset by lower deposits. Compared to the first quarter of 2023, average interest-earning deposits with banks increased $14.2 billion, or 42%, primarily due to higher borrowed funds and lower securities and loan balances, partially offset by lower deposits.
Average interest-bearing deposits increased $1.9 billion and $6.2 billion, compared to the fourth quarter of 2023 and the first quarter of 2023, respectively. The increase in both comparisons reflected the impact of the higher interest rate environment. In total, average interest-bearing deposits represented 81% of average interest-bearing liabilities for both the first quarter of 2024 and the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to 83% for the first quarter of 2023.
Average borrowed funds of $75.6 billion in the first quarter of 2024 increased $2.7, billion, or 4%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2023 and $12.6 billion, or 20%, compared to the first quarter of 2023. In both comparisons, the increase was driven primarily by parent company senior debt issuances.

Noninterest income as a percentage of total revenue was 37% for both the first quarter of 2024 and the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to 36% for the first quarter of 2023.
Asset management and brokerage fees increased compared to the fourth quarter of 2023 and the first quarter of 2023, primarily driven by the impact of higher average equity markets. PNC’s discretionary client assets under management increased $6 billion and $18 billion compared to December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023, respectively. In both comparisons, the increase was primarily driven by higher spot equity markets.
Capital markets and advisory fees declined compared to the fourth quarter of 2023, driven by lower merger and acquisition advisory activity, partially offset by higher underwriting fees. The decrease compared to the first quarter of 2023 was primarily due to lower trading revenue, partially offset by higher underwriting fees.
Card and cash management revenue decreased compared to the fourth quarter of 2023, as seasonally lower consumer transaction volumes were partially offset by higher treasury management fees. The increase compared to the first three months of 2023 was primarily due to higher treasury management product revenue.
Lending and deposit services decreased compared to the fourth quarter of 2023, reflecting the reduction of certain checking product fees. Lending and deposit services were stable compared to the first quarter of 2023.
Residential and commercial mortgage decreased compared to the fourth quarter of 2023, and included lower residential mortgage activity. The decrease compared to the first quarter of 2023 was driven by lower revenue from commercial mortgage loans held for sale.
Other noninterest income decreased compared to the fourth quarter of 2023, and included lower gains on sales. The decrease compared to the first quarter of 2023 was primarily driven by a decline in private equity revenue. In both comparisons, the decrease was offset by lower negative Visa Class B-1 derivative fair value adjustments. Visa Class B-1 fair value adjustments were negative $7 million for the first quarter of 2024 compared to negative $100 million for the fourth quarter of 2023 and negative $45 million for the first quarter of 2023.

Noninterest expense decreased compared to the fourth quarter of 2023, driven by lower or stable expenses across all categories, reflecting a continued focus on expense management. Noninterest expense was stable compared to the first three months of 2023. The first quarter of 2024 included an additional pre-tax expense of $130 million related to the increase in the FDIC’s expected losses. The fourth quarter of 2023 included $515 million pertaining to the FDIC special assessment as well as $150 million of workforce reduction charges.
Effective Income Tax Rate
The effective income tax rate was 18.8% in the first quarter of 2024, 16.3% in the fourth quarter of 2023 and 17.2% in the first quarter of 2023. The effective income tax rate in the fourth quarter of 2023 reflected certain tax credit benefits.

Our balance sheet was strong and well positioned at March 31, 2024. In comparison to December 31, 2023:
•Total assets increased modestly due to higher balances held with the Federal Reserve Bank, partially offset by lower securities and loan balances.
•Total liabilities increased modestly primarily due to higher deposits.
•Total equity increased due to the benefit of net income, partially offset by dividends paid, a decline in AOCI and common share repurchases.
The ACL related to loans totaled $5.4 billion and $5.5 billion at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, this reserve was driven by improved macroeconomic factors as well as portfolio activity.

Investment Securities
Investment securities of $130.5 billion at March 31, 2024 decreased $2.1 billion, or 2%, compared to December 31, 2023, primarily due to prepayments and maturities outpacing purchases.
The level and composition of the investment securities portfolio fluctuates over time based on many factors, including market conditions, loan and deposit growth and balance sheet management activities. We manage our investment securities portfolio to optimize returns, while providing a reliable source of liquidity for our banking and other activities, considering the LCR, NSFR and other internal and external guidelines and constraints.

(a)Of our total securities portfolio, 97% were rated AAA/AA at both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
(b)Amortized cost is presented net of the allowance for investment securities, which totaled $93 million at March 31, 2024 and primarily related to non-agency commercial mortgage-backed securities. The comparable amount at December 31, 2023 was $92 million.
(c)Collateralized primarily by multifamily housing, office buildings, retail properties, lodging properties and industrial properties.
(d)Collateralized primarily by consumer credit products, corporate debt and government guaranteed education loans.
(e)Includes state and municipal securities and corporate bonds.
(f)Includes available for sale and held to maturity securities, which are recorded on our balance sheet at fair value and amortized cost, respectively.
Table 9 presents our investment securities portfolio by amortized cost and fair value. The relationship of fair value to amortized cost at March 31, 2024 was comparable to December 31, 2023 and primarily reflected the impact of higher interest rates on the valuation of fixed-rate securities. We continually monitor the credit risk in our portfolio and maintain the allowance for investment securities at an appropriate level to absorb expected credit losses on our investment securities portfolio for the remaining contractual term of the securities adjusted for expected prepayments. See Note 2 Investment Securities for additional details regarding the allowance for investment securities.

The duration of investment securities was 4.1 years and 4.2 years at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. We estimate that at March 31, 2024 the effective duration of investment securities was 4.0 years for an immediate 50 basis points parallel increase in interest rates and 4.1 years for an immediate 50 basis points parallel decrease in interest rates. Comparable amounts at December 31, 2023 for the effective duration of investment securities were 4.1 years and 4.2 years, respectively.

Deposits are considered an attractive source of funding due to their stability and relatively low cost to fund. Compared to December 31, 2023, our funding source composition included higher deposit balances and relatively stable borrowed funds.
Total deposits increased reflecting higher commercial and consumer deposits. Noninterest-bearing deposit balances decreased driven by a decline in commercial noninterest-bearing balances. Interest-bearing deposits increased reflecting higher commercial and consumer interest-bearing balances. This shift in deposit composition, as well as higher deposit rates, contributed to an increase in funding costs compared to the fourth quarter of 2023. Our total brokered deposit balances of $10.6 billion at March 31, 2024 decreased compared to $11.0 billion at December 31, 2023, and were significantly below both our internal and regulatory guidelines and limits.
Borrowed funds were largely stable as parent company senior debt issuances were offset by lower FHLB borrowings.
The level and composition of borrowed funds fluctuates over time based on many factors, including market conditions, capital considerations, and funding needs, which are primarily driven by changes in loan, deposit and investment securities balances. While our largest source of liquidity on a consolidated basis is the customer deposit base generated by our banking businesses, we also manage our borrowed funds to provide a reliable source of liquidity for our banking and other activities, considering our LCR and NSFR requirements and other internal and external guidelines and constraints. See the Liquidity and Capital Management portion of the Risk Management section in this Financial Review for additional information regarding our liquidity and capital activities. See Note 7 Borrowed Funds in this Report and Note 9 Borrowed Funds in our 2023 Form 10-K for additional information related to our

borrowings. See Average Consolidated Balance Sheet and Net Interest Analysis in the Statistical Information section of this Report for additional information on volume and related funding cost changes.
Shareholders’ Equity
Total shareholders’ equity was $51.3 billion at March 31, 2024, an increase of $0.2 billion compared to December 31, 2023, as increases related to net income of $1.3 billion were partially offset by dividends paid of $0.7 billion, a decline in AOCI of $0.3 billion and more than $0.1 billion of common share repurchases.
BUSINESS SEGMENTS REVIEW
We have three reportable business segments:
•Retail Banking
•Corporate & Institutional Banking
•Asset Management Group
Total business segment financial results differ from total consolidated net income. The impact of these differences is reflected in Other, as shown in Table 77 in Note 14 Segment Reporting. Other includes residual activities that do not meet the criteria for disclosure as a separate reportable business, such as asset and liability management activities including net securities gains or losses, ACL for investment securities, certain trading activities, certain runoff consumer loan portfolios, private equity investments, intercompany eliminations, corporate overhead net of allocations, tax adjustments that are not allocated to business segments, exited businesses and the residual impact from funds transfer pricing operations.
Certain amounts included in this Business Segments Review differ from those amounts shown in Note 14, primarily due to the presentation in this Financial Review of business net interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis.
See Note 14 Segment Reporting for additional information on our business segments, including a description of each business.

Retail Banking earnings for the first three months of 2024 increased $0.4 billion compared to the same period in 2023 primarily due to higher revenue and a lower provision for credit losses, as well as lower noninterest expense.
Net interest income increased in the comparison primarily due to wider interest rate spreads on the value of deposits, partially offset by declines in average deposit balances.
Noninterest income increased in the comparison, reflecting lower negative Visa Class B-1 derivative fair value adjustments, partially offset by lower card and cash management fees.
Provision for credit losses reflected the impact of portfolio activity and improved macroeconomic factors.
Noninterest expense decreased in the comparison, and included lower personnel expense.
Retail Banking average total loans remained stable in the first three months of 2024 compared to the same period in 2023. Average consumer loans decreased driven by lower residential real estate as a result of paydowns outpacing new volume, as well as continued declines in education loans from runoff in the government guaranteed portfolio. Average commercial loans increased due to growth in automobile dealer segment balances.
Our focus on growing primary customer relationships is at the core of our deposit strategy in Retail, which is based on attracting and retaining stable, low-cost deposits as a key funding source for PNC. We have taken a disciplined approach to pricing, focused on retaining relationship-based balances and executing on targeted deposit growth and retention strategies aimed at more rate-sensitive customers. Our goal with regard to deposits is to optimize balances, economics and long-term customer growth. In the first three months of 2024, average total deposits decreased compared to the same period in 2023, reflecting the impact of quantitative tightening by the Federal Reserve and competitive pricing dynamics.
Retail Banking continues to enhance the customer experience with refinements to product and service offerings that drive value for consumers and small businesses.
As part of our strategic focus on growing customers and meeting their financial needs, we operate and continue to optimize a coast-to-coast network of retail branches and ATMs, which are complemented by PNC’s suite of digital capabilities. In February 2024, PNC announced it would be investing nearly $1.0 billion, through 2028, to open more than 100 new branches in key locations, including Austin, Dallas, Denver, Houston, Miami, and San Antonio, and to renovate more than 1,200 existing locations across the country to enhance the customer experience.

(f)Represents balances related to capitalized servicing.
(g)As the result of a business realignment within C&IB during the second quarter of 2023, certain loans were reclassified from Other to Corporate Banking in the prior period to conform to the current period presentation.
Corporate & Institutional Banking earnings in the first three months of 2024 increased $62 million compared to the same period in 2023 driven by higher net interest income and a decline in noninterest expense, partially offset by a higher provision for credit losses.
Net interest income increased in the comparison primarily due to wider interest rate spreads on the value of deposits, partially offset by narrower interest rate spreads on the value of loans and lower average loan and deposit balances.
Noninterest income remained stable, as higher treasury management product revenue was largely offset by lower commercial mortgage banking activities.
Provision for credit losses reflected portfolio activity and improved macroeconomic factors.
Noninterest expense decreased in the comparison, reflecting a continued focus on expense management.
Average loans decreased compared with the three months ended March 31, 2023:
•Corporate Banking provides lending, equipment finance, treasury management and capital markets products and services to
mid-sized and large corporations, and government and not-for-profit entities. Average loans for this business decreased driven by lower average utilization of loan commitments and paydowns outpacing new production, partially offset by the acquisition of capital commitment facilities from Signature Bridge Bank in the fourth quarter of 2023.
•Real Estate provides banking, financing and servicing solutions for commercial real estate clients across the country. Average loans for this business declined largely due to paydowns outpacing new production, partially offset by a higher average utilization of loan commitments.
•Business Credit provides asset-based lending and equipment financing solutions. The loan and lease portfolio is mainly secured by business assets. Average loans for this business declined primarily driven by a lower average utilization of loan commitments.
•Commercial Banking provides lending, treasury management and capital markets related products and services to smaller corporations and businesses. Average loans for this business declined primarily driven by paydowns outpacing new production and a lower average utilization of loan commitments.
The deposit strategy of Corporate & Institutional Banking is to remain disciplined on pricing and focused on growing and retaining relationship-based balances over time, executing on customer and segment-specific deposit growth strategies and continuing to provide funding and liquidity to PNC. Average total deposits decreased compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023, reflecting the impact of quantitative tightening by the Federal Reserve and competitive pricing dynamics. We continue to actively monitor the interest rate environment and make adjustments to our deposit strategy in response to evolving market conditions, bank funding needs and client relationship dynamics.
Product Revenue
In addition to credit and deposit products for commercial customers, Corporate & Institutional Banking offers other services, including treasury management, capital markets and advisory products and services and commercial mortgage banking activities, for customers of all business segments. On a consolidated basis, the revenue from these other services is included in net interest income and noninterest income, as appropriate. From a business perspective, the majority of the revenue and expense related to these services is reflected in the Corporate & Institutional Banking segment results, and the remainder is reflected in the results of other businesses where the customer relationships exist. The Other Information section in Table 13 includes the consolidated revenue to PNC for treasury management and commercial mortgage banking services. A discussion of the consolidated revenue from these services follows.
The Treasury Management business provides corporations with cash and investment management services, receivables and disbursement management services, funds transfer services and access to online/mobile information management and reporting services. Treasury management revenue is reported in noninterest income and net interest income. Noninterest income includes treasury management product revenue less earnings credits provided to customers on compensating deposit balances used to pay for products and services. Net interest income includes funding credit from all treasury management customer deposit balances. Compared to the first three months of 2023, treasury management revenue increased due to wider interest rate spreads on the value of deposits and higher product revenue.
16 The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q
Commercial mortgage banking activities include revenue derived from commercial mortgage servicing (both net interest income and
noninterest income), revenue derived from commercial mortgage loans held for sale and hedges related to those activities. Total
revenue from commercial mortgage banking activities increased in the comparison primarily due to higher commercial mortgage
servicing income, partially offset by lower revenue from commercial mortgage loans held for sale.
Capital markets and advisory includes services and activities primarily related to merger and acquisition advisory, equity capital markets advisory, asset-backed financing, loan syndication, securities underwriting and customer-related trading. The increase in capital markets and advisory fees in the comparison was mostly driven by higher underwriting fees and merger and acquisition advisory fees, partially offset by lower customer-related trading revenue for derivatives.

The Asset Management Group consists of two primary businesses: PNC Private Bank and Institutional Asset Management.
The PNC Private Bank is focused on being a premier private bank in each of the markets it serves. This business seeks to deliver high quality banking, trust and investment management services to our emerging affluent, high net worth and ultra-high net worth clients through a broad array of products and services.
Institutional Asset Management provides outsourced chief investment officer, custody, cash and fixed income client solutions, and retirement plan fiduciary investment services to institutional clients, including corporations, healthcare systems, insurance companies, municipalities and non-profits.
18 The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q
Asset Management Group earnings in the first three months of 2024 increased $45 million compared to the same period in 2023, primarily driven by higher net interest income, a decline in noninterest expense and a provision recapture.
Net interest income increased in the comparison primarily due to wider interest rate spreads on the value of deposits and an increase in average loan and deposit balances, partially offset by narrower interest rate spreads on the value of loans.
Noninterest income was stable as increases in noninterest income from advances in the average equity markets were offset by the impact of client activity.
Noninterest expense decreased in the comparison, reflecting a continued focus on expense management.
Average loans increased compared with the three months ended March 31, 2023, primarily driven by growth in residential mortgage loans.
Average deposits increased in the comparison reflecting growth in CD and deposit sweep balances, partially offset by the impact of quantitative tightening by the Federal Reserve and redeployment of funds to assets under management.
Discretionary client assets under management increased in comparison to the prior year, primarily due to higher equity markets as of March 31, 2024.
RISK MANAGEMENT
The Risk Management section included in Item 7 of our 2023 Form 10-K describes our enterprise risk management framework, including risk culture, enterprise strategy, risk governance and oversight framework, risk identification, risk assessments, risk controls and monitoring, and risk aggregation and reporting. Additionally, our 2023 Form 10-K provides an analysis of the firm’s Capital Management and our key areas of risk, which include, but are not limited to, Credit, Market, Liquidity and Operational (including Compliance and Information Security).
Credit Risk Management
Credit risk, including our credit risk management processes, is described in further detail in the Credit Risk Management section of our 2023 Form 10-K. The following provides additional information around our loan portfolio, which is our most significant concentration of credit risk.
Loan Portfolio Characteristics and Analysis
Table 15: Details of Loans
In billions
We use several credit quality indicators, as further detailed in Note 3 Loans and Related Allowance for Credit Losses, to monitor and measure our exposure to credit risk within our loan portfolio. The following provides additional information about the significant loan classes that comprise our Commercial and Consumer portfolio segments.
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q 19
Commercial
Commercial and Industrial
Commercial and industrial loans comprised 55% of our total loan portfolio at both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The majority of our commercial and industrial loans are secured by collateral that provides a secondary source of repayment should a borrower experience cash generation difficulties. Examples of this collateral include short-term assets, such as accounts receivable, inventory and securities, and long-lived assets, such as equipment, owner-occupied real estate and other business assets.
We actively manage our commercial and industrial loans to assess any changes (both positive and negative) in the level of credit risk at both the borrower and portfolio level. To evaluate the level of credit risk, we assign internal risk ratings reflecting our estimates of the borrower’s PD and LGD for each related credit facility. This two-dimensional credit risk rating methodology provides granularity in the risk monitoring process and is updated on an ongoing basis through our credit risk management processes. In addition to monitoring the level of credit risk, we also monitor concentrations of credit risk pertaining to both specific industries and geographies that may exist in our portfolio. Our commercial and industrial portfolio is well-diversified across industries as shown in the following table (based on the North American Industry Classification System).

(a) Represents loans to customers in the real estate and construction industries.
Owner occupied commercial real estate loans totaled $9.5 billion at March 31, 2024 and are included in commercial and industrial loans as the credit decisioning for servicing these loans is based on the financial conditions of the owner; not the ability of the collateral to generate income. Owner occupied commercial real estate loans are well-diversified across industries. The comparable amount of owner occupied commercial real estate loans at December 31, 2023 was $9.6 billion.
Commercial Real Estate
Commercial real estate loans comprised $20.8 billion related to commercial mortgages on income-producing properties, $8.5 billion of intermediate-term financing loans, and $6.3 billion of real estate construction project loans as of March 31, 2024. Comparable amounts as of December 31, 2023 were $21.0 billion, $8.0 billion, and $6.4 billion, respectively. Commercial real estate primarily consists of an investment in land and/or buildings held to generate income, that income serves as the primary source for the repayment of the loan. However, for all commercial real estate assets, the disposition of the assigned collateral serves as a secondary source of repayment for the loan should the borrower experience cash generation difficulties.
We monitor credit risk associated with our commercial real estate loans similar to commercial and industrial loans by analyzing PD and LGD. Additionally, risks associated with commercial real estate loans tend to be correlated to the loan structure, collateral location and quality, project progress and business environment. These attributes are also monitored and utilized in assessing credit risk. The portfolio is geographically diverse due to the nature of our business involving clients throughout the U.S.

(a) Presented in descending order based on loan balances at March 31, 2024.
Commercial Real Estate: Office Portfolio
Given the foundational change in office demand driven by the acceptance of remote work, real estate performance related to the office sector continues to be an area of uncertainty. At March 31, 2024, our outstanding loan balances in the office portfolio totaled $7.8 billion, or 2.4% of total loans, while additional unfunded loan commitments totaled $0.3 billion. Also, the portfolio is well diversified geographically across our coast-to-coast franchise. Within the office portfolio at March 31, 2024, criticized loans totaled 26.4% and nonperforming loans totaled 10.5%, while delinquencies were zero. As measured at origination, the weighted average LTV for the office portfolio was 58%; however, updated appraisals have increased the weighted average LTV to 69% as of March 31, 2024. While LTV is one consideration, our risk assessment considers a number of factors in assessing the changing conditions affecting the portfolio. As of March 31, 2024, we have established reserves of 9.7% against office loans.
The greatest stress in our office portfolio is observed in multi-tenant office loans, which represents 57% of the portfolio at March 31, 2024. Within the multi-tenant classification, criticized levels were 45.1% while nonperforming loans totaled 18.1%, accounting for almost all of the nonperforming office population. The weighted average LTV for multi-tenant is 75% at March 31, 2024. Additionally, commercial real estate charge-offs since the beginning of 2023 have primarily been multi-tenant office loans. Given the higher level of stress, this segment has a proportionally higher reserve rate of 14.4%. The remaining 43% of the office portfolio is primarily comprised of single-tenant, medical and government tenant properties. This subset of the portfolio is performing considerably better, with approximately 1% of the book in the criticized and nonperforming loan categories. As of March 31, 2024, the weighted average LTV of this book is 59%.
Portfolio management efforts have escalated for the office portfolio, with internal risk ratings completed for each asset quarterly, accelerated reappraisal requirements and elevated approval levels for any credit action. Refreshed appraisals have updated valuations on nearly all of the criticized office exposure since the beginning of 2023. Additionally, active management efforts include ongoing performance assessments as well as the review of property, lending and capital markets. Portfolio updates are distributed to senior management weekly.
Given the ongoing change in this area, we expect additional stress in the office sector, and a portion of this stress will bear itself out as we work through maturities that will approximate 42% over the next twelve months. Upon maturity, and where the balance is not paid in full, an extension may be granted because contractual extension terms are met; alternatively, an extension may be granted based on
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q 21
negotiated terms, and a portion of these extensions may involve the curtailment or charge off of principal. We continue to actively manage the portfolio, and we believe reserve levels adequately reflect the expected credit losses in the portfolio.
Commercial Real Estate: Multifamily Portfolio
As of March 31, 2024, our outstanding loan balances in the multifamily portfolio totaled $16.1 billion, or 5.0% of total loans, while additional unfunded loan commitments totaled $3.8 billion. Although inflationary pressures and higher interest rates have impacted internal risk assessments and regulatory classification in this portfolio, we have not seen a notable change in loan performance at this time with regards to nonperformance, delinquency or charge-offs. We continue to closely monitor our exposure in this sector.
Consumer
Residential Real Estate
Residential real estate loans primarily consisted of residential mortgage loans at both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
We obtain loan attributes at origination, including FICO scores and LTVs, and we update these and other credit metrics at least quarterly. We track borrower performance monthly. We also segment the mortgage portfolio into pools based on product type (e.g., nonconforming or conforming). This information is used for internal reporting and risk management. As part of our overall risk analysis and monitoring, we also segment the portfolio based upon loan delinquency, nonperforming status, modification and bankruptcy status, FICO scores, LTV and geographic concentrations.

We originate residential mortgage loans nationwide through our national mortgage business as well as within our branch network. Residential mortgage loans underwritten to agency standards, including conforming loan amount limits, are typically sold with servicing retained by us. We also originate nonconforming residential mortgage loans that do not meet agency standards, which we retain on our balance sheet. Our portfolio of originated nonconforming residential mortgage loans totaled $42.4 billion at March 31, 2024, with 46% located in California. Comparable amounts at December 31, 2023 were $42.4 billion and 45%, respectively.
Home Equity
Home equity loans comprised $20.6 billion of home equity lines of credit and $5.3 billion of closed-end home equity installment loans at March 31, 2024. Comparable amounts were $20.6 billion and $5.6 billion as of December 31, 2023, respectively. Home equity lines of credit are a variable interest rate product with fixed rate conversion options available to certain borrowers.
Similar to residential real estate loans, we track borrower performance of this portfolio on a monthly basis. We also segment the population into pools based on product type (e.g., home equity loans, legacy brokered home equity loans, home equity lines of credit or legacy brokered home equity lines of credit) and track the historical performance of any related mortgage loans regardless of
22 The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q
whether we hold such liens. This information is used for internal reporting and risk management. As part of our overall risk analysis and monitoring, we also segment the portfolio based upon loan delinquency, nonperforming status, modification and bankruptcy status, FICO scores, LTV, lien position and geographic concentration.
The credit performance of the majority of the home equity portfolio where we hold the first lien position is superior to the portion of the portfolio where we hold the second lien position but do not hold the first lien. Lien position information is generally determined at the time of origination and monitored on an ongoing basis for risk management purposes. We use a third-party service provider to obtain updated loan information, including lien and collateral data that is aggregated from public and private sources.

Auto loans comprised $13.8 billion in the indirect auto portfolio and $1.0 billion in the direct auto portfolio as of March 31, 2024. Comparable amounts as of December 31, 2023 were $13.8 billion and $1.1 billion, respectively. The indirect auto portfolio consists of loans originated primarily through independent franchised dealers, including dealers located in our newer markets. This business is strategically aligned with our core retail banking business.

We continue to focus on borrowers with strong credit profiles as evidenced by the weighted-average loan origination FICO scores noted in Table 20. We offer both new and used auto financing to customers through our various channels. At March 31, 2024, the portfolio balance was composed of 43% new vehicle loans and 57% used vehicle loans. Comparable amounts at December 31, 2023 were 45% and 55%, respectively.
The auto loan portfolio’s performance is measured monthly, including both updated collateral values and FICO scores that are obtained at least quarterly. For internal reporting and risk management, we analyze the portfolio by product channel and product type and regularly evaluate default and delinquency experience. As part of our overall risk analysis and monitoring, we segment the portfolio by geography, channel, collateral attributes and credit metrics which include FICO score, LTV and term.
Nonperforming Assets and Loan Delinquencies
Nonperforming Assets
Nonperforming assets include nonperforming loans and leases, OREO and foreclosed assets. Nonperforming loans are those loans accounted for at amortized cost whose credit quality has deteriorated to the extent full collection of contractual principal and interest is not probable. Loans held for sale, certain government insured or guaranteed loans and loans accounted for under the fair value option are excluded from nonperforming loans. See Note 1 Accounting Policies in our 2023 Form 10-K for details on our nonaccrual policies.

Loan Delinquencies
We regularly monitor the level of loan delinquencies and believe these levels are a key indicator of credit quality in our loan portfolio. Measurement of delinquency status is based on the contractual terms of each loan. Loans that are 30 days or more past due are considered delinquent. Loan delinquencies include government insured or guaranteed loans, loans accounted for under the fair value option and PCD loans. Amounts exclude loans held for sale.
We manage credit risk based on the risk profile of the borrower, repayment sources, underlying collateral, and other support given current events, economic conditions and expectations. We refine our practices to meet the changing environment, such as inflation levels, industry specific risks, interest rate levels, the level of consumer savings and deposit balances, and structural and secular changes fostered by the pandemic. To mitigate losses and enhance customer support, we offer loan modifications and collection programs to assist our customers.
The following table presents a summary of accruing loans past due by delinquency status:

(a)Past due loan amounts include government insured or guaranteed loans of $0.4 billion at both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
Accruing loans past due 90 days or more continue to accrue interest because they are (i) well secured by collateral and are in the process of collection, (ii) managed in homogeneous portfolios with specified charge-off timeframes adhering to regulatory guidelines, or (iii) certain government insured or guaranteed loans. As such, they are excluded from nonperforming loans.
Loan Modifications
We provide relief to our customers experiencing financial hardships through a variety of solutions. Commercial loan and lease modifications are based on each individual borrower’s situation, while consumer loan modifications are evaluated under our hardship relief programs.
See Note 3 Loans and Related Allowance for Credit Losses for additional information on loan modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty.
Allowance for Credit Losses
Our determination of the ACL is based on historical loss and performance experience, current economic conditions, the reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions and other relevant factors, including current borrower and/or transaction characteristics and assessments of the remaining estimated contractual term as of the balance sheet date. We maintain the ACL at an appropriate level for expected losses on our existing investment securities, loans, equipment finance leases, other financial assets and unfunded lending related commitments.
See Note 1 Accounting Policies and the Credit Risk Management section in our 2023 Form 10-K for additional discussion of our ACL, including details of our methodologies. See also the Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments section of this Report for further discussion of the assumptions used in the determination of the ACL as of March 31, 2024.

Liquidity and Capital Management
Our liquidity risk framework and related monitoring measures and tools, including internal liquidity stress testing as well as compliance with internal and regulatory limits and guidelines, are described in further detail in the Liquidity and Capital Management section of our 2023 Form 10-K.
One of the ways we monitor our liquidity is by reference to the LCR, a regulatory minimum liquidity requirement designed to ensure that covered banking organizations maintain an adequate level of liquidity to meet net liquidity needs over the course of a hypothetical 30-day stress scenario. PNC and PNC Bank calculate the LCR daily and are required to maintain a regulatory minimum of 100%. The LCR for both PNC and PNC Bank exceeded the regulatory minimum requirement throughout the first quarter of 2024. Fluctuations in our average LCR result from changes to the components of the calculation, including high-quality liquid assets and net cash outflows, as a result of ongoing business activity.
The NSFR is designed to measure the stability of the maturity structure of assets and liabilities of banking organizations over a one-year time horizon. PNC and PNC Bank calculate the NSFR daily and are required to maintain a regulatory minimum of 100%. The NSFR for both PNC and PNC Bank exceeded the regulatory minimum requirement throughout the first quarter of 2024.
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q 27
We provide additional information regarding regulatory liquidity requirements and their potential impact on us in the Supervision and Regulation section of Item 1 Business and Item 1A Risk Factors of our 2023 Form 10-K.
Sources of Liquidity
Our largest source of liquidity on a consolidated basis is the customer deposit base generated by our banking businesses. These deposits provide relatively stable and low-cost funding. Total deposits increased to $425.6 billion at March 31, 2024 from $421.4 billion at December 31, 2023. Noninterest-bearing deposit balances decreased driven by a decline in commercial noninterest-bearing balances. Interest-bearing deposits increased reflecting higher commercial and consumer interest-bearing balances. As of March 31, 2024, uninsured deposits represented approximately 43% of our total deposit base, which is estimated based on the regulatory instructions in the Consolidated Reports of Condition and Income - FFIEC 031. The majority of our uninsured deposits are related to commercial operating and relationship accounts, which we define as commercial deposit customers who utilize two or more PNC products. See the Funding Sources portion of the Consolidated Balance Sheet Review and Business Segments Review sections of this Financial Review for additional information on our deposits and related strategies.
We may also obtain liquidity through various forms of funding, including long-term debt (senior notes, subordinated debt and FHLB borrowings) and short-term borrowings (securities sold under repurchase agreements, commercial paper and other short-term borrowings). See the Funding Sources section of the Consolidated Balance Sheet Review in this Financial Review and Note 7 Borrowed Funds in this Report for additional information related to our borrowings.
Total senior and subordinated debt, on a consolidated basis, increased due to the following activity:

Other | (0.4) | | | |
| | | |
March 31 | $ | 32.7 | | | |
Additionally, certain liquid assets and unused borrowing capacity from a number of sources are also available to manage our liquidity position. PNC has a contingency funding plan designed to ensure that liquidity sources are sufficient to meet ongoing obligations and commitments, particularly in the event of liquidity stress. This plan is designed to examine and quantify the organization’s liquidity under various internal liquidity stress scenarios and is periodically tested to assess the plan’s reliability. Additionally, the plan provides the strategies for addressing liquidity needs and responsive actions we would consider during liquidity stress events, which could include the issuance of incremental debt, preferred stock, or additional deposit actions, including the issuance of brokered CDs. The plan also addresses the governance, frequency of reporting and the responsibilities of key departments in the event of liquidity stress.
PNC defines our primary contingent liquidity sources as cash held at the Federal Reserve Bank, investment securities and unused borrowing capacity at the FHLB and Federal Reserve Bank. The following table summarizes our primary contingent liquidity sources at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023:
Table 27: Primary Contingent Liquidity Sources

(a)Represents the fair value of investment securities that can be used for pledging or to secure other sources of funding.
(b)At March 31, 2024, total FHLB borrowing capacity was $74.4 billion and total FHLB borrowings were $37.0 billion. Comparable amounts at December 31, 2023 were $73.4 billion and $38.0 billion, respectively.
(c)Total borrowing capacity with the Federal Reserve Bank was $83.9 billion at March 31, 2024 and $47.2 billion at December 31, 2023. PNC had no outstanding borrowings with the Federal Reserve Bank at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
As part of PNC’s contingency planning, we prepositioned a portion of our available held to maturity investment securities at the Federal Reserve Bank’s Discount Window during the first quarter of 2024, supporting our resilience and operational readiness.

Bank Liquidity
In addition to our primary contingent liquidity sources, under PNC Bank’s 2014 bank note program, as amended, PNC Bank may from time to time offer up to $40.0 billion aggregate principal amount outstanding at any one time of its unsecured senior and subordinated notes with maturity dates more than nine months (in the case of senior notes) and five years or more (in the case of subordinated notes) from their date of issue. At March 31, 2024, PNC Bank’s remaining capacity to issue under the program was $33.3 billion.
Under PNC Bank’s 2013 commercial paper program, PNC Bank has the ability to offer up to $10.0 billion of its commercial paper to provide additional liquidity. At March 31, 2024, there were no issuances outstanding under this program.
Additionally, PNC Bank may also access funding from the parent company through deposits placed at the bank or issuing intercompany senior unsecured notes.
Parent Company Liquidity
In addition to managing liquidity risk at the bank level, we manage the parent company’s liquidity. The parent company’s contractual obligations consist primarily of debt service related to parent company borrowings and funding non-bank affiliates. Additionally, the parent company maintains liquidity to fund discretionary activities such as paying dividends to our shareholders, share repurchases and acquisitions.
At March 31, 2024, available parent company liquidity totaled $21.7 billion. Parent company liquidity is held in intercompany cash and investments. For investments with longer durations, the related maturities are aligned with scheduled cash needs, such as the maturity of parent company debt obligations.
The principal source of parent company liquidity is the dividends or other capital distributions it receives from PNC Bank, which may be impacted by the following:
•Bank-level capital needs,
•Laws, regulations and the results of supervisory activities,
•Corporate policies,
•Contractual restrictions, and
•Other factors.
There are statutory and regulatory limitations on the ability of a national bank to pay dividends or make other capital distributions or to extend credit to the parent company or its non-bank subsidiaries. The amount available for dividend payments by PNC Bank to the parent company without prior regulatory approval was $5.7 billion at March 31, 2024. See Note 19 Regulatory Matters in our 2023 Form 10-K for further discussion of these limitations.
In addition to dividends from PNC Bank, other sources of parent company liquidity include cash and investments, as well as dividends and loan repayments from other subsidiaries and dividends or distributions from equity investments. We can also generate liquidity for the parent company and PNC’s non-bank subsidiaries through the issuance of debt and equity securities, including certain capital instruments, in public or private markets and commercial paper. Under the parent company’s 2014 commercial paper program, the parent company has the ability to offer up to $5.0 billion of commercial paper to provide additional liquidity. At March 31, 2024, there were no issuances outstanding under this program.
The following table details parent company note issuances in the first quarter of 2024:
Table 28: Parent Company Notes Issued
| | | | | | | | |
Issuance Date | Amount | Description of Issuance |
January 22, 2024 | $1.0 billion | $1.0 billion of senior fixed-to-floating notes with a maturity date of January 21, 2028. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears at a fixed rate of 5.300% per annum, on January 21 and July 21 of each year, beginning on July 21, 2024. Beginning on January 21, 2027, interest is payable quarterly in arrears at a floating rate per annum equal to Compounded SOFR (determined with respect to each quarterly interest period using the SOFR Index as described in the Prospectus Supplement), plus 1.342%, on April 21, 2027, July 21, 2027, October 21, 2027 and at the maturity date. |
January 22, 2024 | $1.5 billion | $1.5 billion of senior fixed-to-floating notes with a maturity date of January 22, 2035.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments
We have contractual obligations representing required future payments on borrowed funds, time deposits, leases, pension and postretirement benefits and purchase obligations. See the Liquidity and Capital Management portion of the Risk Management section of our 2023 Form 10-K for more information on these future cash outflows. Additionally, in the normal course of business, we have various commitments outstanding, certain of which are not included on our Consolidated Balance Sheet. We provide information on our commitments in Note 8 Commitments.
Credit Ratings
PNC’s credit ratings affect the cost and availability of short and long-term funding, collateral requirements for certain derivative instruments and the ability to offer certain products.
In general, rating agencies base their ratings on many quantitative and qualitative factors, including capital adequacy, liquidity, asset quality, business mix, level and quality of earnings, and the current legislative and regulatory environment, including implied government support. A decrease, or potential decrease, in credit ratings could impact access to the capital markets and/or increase the cost of debt, and thereby adversely affect liquidity and financial condition. For additional information on the potential impacts from a downgrade to our credit ratings, see Item 1A Risk Factors in our 2023 Form 10-K.

Capital Management
Detailed information on our capital management processes and activities is included in the Supervision and Regulation section of Item 1 of our 2023 Form 10-K.
We manage our funding and capital positions by making adjustments to our balance sheet size and composition, issuing or redeeming debt, issuing equity or other capital instruments, executing treasury stock transactions and capital redemptions or repurchases, and managing dividend policies and retaining earnings.
In the first quarter of 2024, PNC returned $0.8 billion of capital to shareholders, reflecting more than $0.6 billion of dividends on common shares and more than $0.1 billion of common share repurchases, representing 0.9 million shares. Consistent with the SCB framework, which allows for capital return in amounts in excess of the SCB minimum levels, our Board of Directors has authorized a repurchase framework under the previously approved repurchase program of up to 100 million common shares, of which approximately 44% were still available for repurchase at March 31, 2024. In light of the Federal banking agencies proposed rules to adjust the Basel III capital framework, second quarter of 2024 share repurchase activity is expected to approximate the recent quarterly average share repurchase levels. PNC continues to evaluate the potential impact of the proposed rules and may adjust share repurchase activity depending on market and economic conditions, as well as other factors. PNC’s SCB for the four-quarter period beginning October 1, 2023 is the regulatory minimum of 2.5%.
On April 3, 2024 the PNC Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend on common stock of $1.55 per share to be paid on May 6, 2024 to shareholders of record at the close of business April 15, 2024.

(a)The ratios are calculated to reflect PNC’s election to adopt the CECL five-year transition provisions. Effective for the first quarter 2022, PNC is now in the three-year transition period and the full impact of the CECL standard is being phased-in to regulatory capital through December 31, 2024.
(b)The ratios are calculated to reflect the full impact of CECL and exclude the benefits of the optional five-year transition.
(c)As permitted, PNC and PNC Bank have elected to exclude AOCI related to both available for sale securities and pension and other post-retirement plans from CET1 capital.
(d)Basel III standardized approach risk-weighted assets are based on the Basel III standardized approach rules and include credit and market risk-weighted assets.
(e)The Supplementary leverage ratio is calculated based on Tier 1 capital divided by Supplementary leverage exposure, which takes into account the quarterly average of both on balance sheet assets as well as certain off-balance sheet items, including loan commitments and potential future exposure under derivative contracts.
(f)All ratios are calculated using the regulatory capital methodology applicable to PNC and calculated based on the standardized approach.
(g)Leverage ratio is calculated based on Tier 1 capital divided by Average quarterly adjusted total assets.
PNC’s regulatory risk-based capital ratios are calculated using the standardized approach for determining risk-weighted assets. Under the standardized approach for determining credit risk-weighted assets, exposures are generally assigned a pre-defined risk weight. Exposures to high volatility commercial real estate, nonaccruals, FDMs, past due exposures and equity exposures are generally subject to higher risk weights than other types of exposures.
The regulatory agencies have adopted a rule permitting certain banks, including PNC, to delay the estimated impact on regulatory capital stemming from implementing CECL. CECL’s estimated impact on CET1 capital, as defined by the rule, is the change in retained earnings at adoption plus or minus 25% of the change in CECL ACL at the balance sheet date, excluding the allowance for PCD loans, compared to CECL ACL at adoption. Effective for the first quarter of 2022, PNC is now in the three-year transition period, and the full impact of the CECL standard is being phased-in to regulatory capital through December 31, 2024. See additional discussion of this rule in the Supervision and Regulation section of Item 1 Business and Item 1A Risk Factors of our 2023 Form 10-K.
At March 31, 2024, PNC and PNC Bank were considered “well capitalized” based on applicable U.S. regulatory capital ratio requirements. To qualify as “well capitalized,” PNC must have Basel III capital ratios of at least 6% for Tier 1 risk-based capital and 10% for Total risk-based capital, and PNC Bank must have Basel III capital ratios of at least 6.5% for Common equity Tier 1 risk-based capital, 8% for Tier 1 risk-based capital, 10% for Total risk-based capital and a Leverage ratio of at least 5%.
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q 31
Federal banking regulators have stated that they expect the largest U.S. BHCs, including PNC, to have a level of regulatory capital well in excess of the regulatory minimum and have required the largest U.S. BHCs, including PNC, to have a capital buffer sufficient to withstand losses and allow them to meet the credit needs of their customers through estimated stress scenarios. We seek to manage our capital consistent with these regulatory principles, and we believe that our March 31, 2024 capital levels were aligned with them.
We provide additional information regarding regulatory capital requirements and some of their potential impacts, including the proposed rules to adjust the Basel III framework, in the Supervision and Regulation section of Item 1 Business, Item 1A Risk Factors and Note 19 Regulatory Matters in our 2023 Form 10-K.
Market Risk Management
See the Market Risk Management portion of the Risk Management section in our 2023 Form 10-K for additional discussion regarding market risk.
Market Risk Management – Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk results primarily from our traditional banking activities of gathering deposits and extending loans. Many factors, including economic and financial conditions, movements in interest rates and consumer preferences, affect the difference between the interest that we earn on assets and the interest that we pay on liabilities and the level of our noninterest-bearing funding sources. Due to the repricing term mismatches and embedded options inherent in certain of these products, changes in market interest rates not only affect expected near-term earnings, but also the economic values of these assets and liabilities.
Our Asset and Liability Management group centrally manages interest rate risk as prescribed in our market risk-related risk management policies, which are approved by management’s ALCO and the Risk Committee of the Board of Directors.
PNC utilizes sensitivities of NII and EVE to a set of interest rate scenarios to identify and measure its short-term and long-term structural interest rate risks.
NII Sensitivity results for the first quarters of 2024 and 2023 follow:
Table 31: Net Interest Income Sensitivity Analysis | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| First Quarter 2024 | | First Quarter 2023 | |

(a) The effect on NII in the first year from a 100 basis point instantaneous increase or decrease is not materially different from the 200 basis point scenarios as disclosed above.
When forecasting net interest income, we make certain key assumptions that can materially impact the resulting sensitivities, including the following:
Future Balance Sheet Composition: Our balance sheet composition is dynamic and based on our forecasted expectations. As of the first quarter of 2024, the projected balance sheet composition by the end of year one is generally consistent with the spot composition as of the first quarter of 2024.
Deposit Betas: Deposit pricing changes are primarily driven by changes in the Federal Funds rate, with the relationship between deposit rates and Federal Funds rate defined as deposit beta. We define cumulative deposit beta as the change in deposit rate paid on interest-bearing non-maturity deposits divided by the change in the upper level of the stated Federal Funds rate range since the first quarter of 2022, the start of the current rising rate cycle. As of March 31, 2024 PNC’s cumulative deposit beta was 45%, an increase from 35% at March 31, 2023. For interest rate risk modeling, PNC uses dynamic beta models to adjust assumed repricing sensitivity depending on market rate levels as well as other factors. The dynamic beta assumptions reflect historical experience and future expectations. Our scenario assumes that deposit betas increased slightly from current levels. Actual deposit rates paid may differ from modeled projections due to variables such as competition for deposits and customer behavior.
Asset Prepayments: PNC includes prepayment assumptions for both loan and investment portfolios. Mortgage and home equity portfolios utilize an industry standard model to drive estimated prepayments that increase in lower rate environments. Commercial and consumer loan portfolios assume static constant prepayment rates that are consistent across rate scenarios, as those portfolios historically do not exhibit significantly different prepayment behaviors based upon the level of market rates.
Impact of Derivatives: PNC uses interest rate derivatives to hedge floating rate commercial loans. PNC had $36.5 billion in receive fix / pay float swaps as of March 31, 2024, with a weighted average duration of 2.0 years and an average fixed rate of 2.30%. As of March 31, 2024 PNC also had collars in place, reflecting $12.5 billion of caps and $12.5 billion of floors, that are used to hedge these
32 The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q
commercial loans. Additionally, PNC utilizes receive fix / pay float swaps as a means of hedging fixed rate debt. See Note 12 Financial Derivatives in this report for additional information on how we use derivatives to hedge commercial loans and fixed rate debt.
EVE sensitivity results for the first quarter of 2024 and 2023 follow:
Table 32: Economic Value of Equity Sensitivity Analysis
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| First Quarter 2024 | First Quarter 2023 | |
Economic Value of Equity Sensitivity Simulation | | | |
200 basis point instantaneous increase | (5.7) | % | (4.3) | % | |
200 basis point instantaneous decrease | (1.6) | % | (4.9) | % | |
EVE measures the present value of all projected future cash flows associated with a point-in-time balance sheet and does not include projected new volume. EVE sensitivity to interest rate changes is a complementary metric to NII sensitivity analysis and represents an estimation of long-term interest rate risk. PNC calculates its EVE sensitivity by measuring the changes in the economic value of assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet instruments in response to an instantaneous +/-200 bps parallel shift in interest rates. Similar to the NII sensitivity analysis, we incorporate dynamic deposit repricing and loan prepayment assumptions. These methodologies are largely consistent between the EVE and NII sensitivity analyses. Additionally, deposit attrition is a significant contributor to EVE sensitivity. Deposit attrition is projected based on a dynamic model developed using long-term historical deposit behavior in addition to management assumptions including accelerated attrition for pandemic related excess deposits. PNC performs various sensitivity analyses to understand the impact of faster and slower deposit attrition on our risk metrics, with the results reported to ALCO.
Compared to the first quarter of 2023, there have been no material changes to our NII sensitivity and EVE sensitivity assumptions, including data sources that drive assumptions setting.
Market Risk Management – Customer-Related Trading Risk
We engage in fixed income securities, derivatives and foreign exchange transactions to support our customers’ investing and hedging activities. These transactions, related hedges and the credit valuation adjustment related to our customer derivatives portfolio are marked-to-market daily and reported as customer-related trading activities. We do not engage in proprietary trading of these products.
We use VaR as the primary means to measure and monitor market risk in customer-related trading activities. VaR is used to estimate the probability of portfolio losses based on the statistical analysis of historical market risk factors. VaR is calculated for each of the portfolios that comprise our customer-related trading activities of which the majority are covered positions as defined by the Market Risk Rule. VaR is computed with positions and market risk factors updated daily to ensure each portfolio is operating within its acceptable limits. See the Market Risk Management – Customer-Related Trading Risk section of our 2023 Form 10-K for more information on our models used to calculate VaR and our backtesting process.
Customer-related trading revenue was $16 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to $84 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease was primarily due to lower derivative client sales revenues, partially offset by securities underwriting client revenues.
Market Risk Management – Equity And Other Investment Risk
Equity investment risk is the risk of potential losses associated with investing in both private and public equity markets. In addition to extending credit, taking deposits, underwriting securities and trading financial instruments, we make and manage direct investments in a variety of transactions, including management buyouts, recapitalizations and growth financings in a variety of industries. We also have investments in affiliated and non-affiliated funds that make similar investments in private equity, consistent with regulatory limitations. The economic and/or book value of these investments and other assets are directly affected by changes in market factors.
Various PNC business units manage our equity and other investment activities. Our businesses are responsible for making investment decisions within the approved policy limits and associated guidelines.
A summary of our equity investments follows:
Table 33: Equity Investments Summary

Tax Credit Investments
Included in our equity investments are direct tax credit investments and equity investments held by consolidated entities. These tax credit investment balances included unfunded commitments totaling $2.2 billion and $2.5 billion at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. These unfunded commitments are included in Other liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheet.
Note 4 Loan Sale and Servicing Activities and Variable Interest Entities in our 2023 Form 10-K has further information on tax credit investments.
Private Equity and Other
The largest component of our other equity investments is our private equity portfolio. The private equity portfolio is an illiquid portfolio consisting of mezzanine and equity investments that vary by industry, stage and type of investment. Private equity investments carried at estimated fair value totaled $2.2 billion at both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. As of March 31, 2024, $2.0 billion was invested directly in a variety of companies and $0.2 billion was invested indirectly through various private equity funds.
Included in our other equity investments are Visa Class B-1 common shares, which are recorded at cost. Visa Class B-1 common shares that we own are transferable only under limited circumstances until they can be converted into shares of the publicly-traded Class A common shares, which cannot happen until the resolution of the pending interchange litigation, subject to the exchange offer described in Note 16 Subsequent Events. Based upon the March 31, 2024 per share closing price of $279.08 for a Visa Class A common share, the estimated value of our total investment in the Class B-1 common shares was approximately $1.6 billion at the current conversion rate of Visa B-1 shares to Visa A shares, while our cost basis was insignificant. The estimated value does not represent fair value of the Visa B-1 common shares given the shares’ limited transferability and the lack of observable transactions in the marketplace. See Note 14 Fair Value and Note 20 Legal Proceedings in our 2023 Form 10-K and Note 13 Legal Proceedings in this Report for additional information regarding our Visa agreements. See Note 16 Subsequent Events for additional details on Visa’s recently announced exchange offer for Visa Class B-1 common stock.
We also have certain other equity investments, the majority of which represent investments in affiliated and non-affiliated funds with both traditional and alternative investment strategies. Net gains (losses) related to these investments were $(6) million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and $21 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023.
Financial Derivatives
We use a variety of financial derivatives as part of the overall asset and liability risk management process to help manage exposure to market (primarily interest rate) and credit risk inherent in our business activities. We also enter into derivatives with customers to facilitate their risk management activities.
Financial derivatives involve, to varying degrees, market and credit risk. Derivatives represent contracts between parties that usually require little or no initial net investment and result in one party delivering cash or another type of asset to the other party based on a notional and an underlying as specified in the contract. Therefore, cash requirements and exposure to credit risk are significantly less than the notional amount on these instruments.
Further information on our financial derivatives is presented in Note 1 Accounting Policies, Note 14 Fair Value and Note 15 Financial Derivatives in our 2023 Form 10-K and in Note 11 Fair Value and Note 12 Financial Derivatives in this Report.
Not all elements of market and credit risk are addressed through the use of financial derivatives, and such instruments may be ineffective for their intended purposes due to unanticipated market changes, among other reasons.
RECENT REGULATORY DEVELOPMENTS
Federal agencies and states, including the federal agencies responsible for the Federal Acquisition Regulations, California, and most recently in March 2024, the SEC, have separately proposed or finalized rules that would require certain companies or government contractors, such as PNC or PNC Bank, to disclose significant amounts of climate-related information. This information includes qualitative and quantitative disclosures of material climate-related risks and their impact, governance and management, targets and goals, and greenhouse gas emissions. The greenhouse gas emissions disclosures include the company’s direct emissions from owned or controlled sources (Scope 1) and indirect emissions from the company’s consumption of energy purchased from third parties (Scope 2), and in the case of the Federal Acquisition Regulations proposal for a “major contractor” and California laws, disclosures related to indirect emissions from upstream and downstream activities in the company’s value chain (Scope 3). If and when all the rules are finalized, PNC and PNC Bank may face potentially differing standards from the agencies or California. Numerous lawsuits have challenged the SEC and California rules, and on April 4, 2024, the SEC voluntarily stayed implementation of its final rules pending resolution of the lawsuits challenging the SEC rules.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS
Our consolidated financial statements are prepared by applying certain accounting policies. Note 1 Accounting Policies in our 2023 Form 10-K describes the most significant accounting policies that we use. Certain of these policies require us to make estimates or economic assumptions that may vary under different assumptions or conditions, and such variations may significantly affect our reported results and financial position for the period or in future periods. The policies and judgments related to residential and commercial MSRs and Level 3 fair value measurements are described in Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments in our 2023 Form 10-K. The following details the critical estimates and judgments around the ACL.
Allowance for Credit Losses
We maintain the ACL at levels that we believe to be appropriate as of the balance sheet date to absorb expected credit losses on our existing investment securities, loans, equipment finance leases, other financial assets and unfunded lending related commitments, for the remaining estimated contractual term of the assets or exposures, taking into consideration expected prepayments and estimated recoveries. Our determination of the ACL is based on historical loss and performance experience, as well as current borrower and transaction characteristics including collateral type and quality, current economic conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions and other relevant factors. We use methods sensitive to changes in economic conditions to interpret these factors and to estimate expected credit losses. We evaluate and, when appropriate, enhance the quality of our data and models and other methods used to estimate the ACL on an ongoing basis. We incorporate qualitative factors in the ACL that reflect our best estimate of expected losses that may not be adequately represented in our quantitative methods or economic assumptions. The major drivers of ACL estimates include, but are not limited to:
•Current economic conditions: Our forecast of expected losses depends on economic conditions as of the estimation date. As current economic conditions evolve, forecasted losses could be materially affected.
•Scenario weights and design: Our loss estimates are sensitive to the shape, direction and rate of change of macroeconomic forecasts and thus vary significantly between upside and downside scenarios. Changes to the probability weights assigned to these scenarios and the timing of peak business cycles reflected by the scenarios could materially affect our loss estimates.
•Current borrower quality: Our forecast of expected losses depends on current borrower and transaction characteristics, including credit metrics and collateral type/quality. As borrower quality evolves, forecasted losses could be materially affected.
•Portfolio composition: Changes to portfolio volume and mix could materially affect our estimates, as CECL reserves
would be recognized upon origination or acquisition and derecognized upon paydown, maturity or sale.
For all assets and unfunded lending related commitments within the scope of the CECL standard, the applicable ACL is composed of one or a combination of the following components: (i) collectively assessed or pooled reserves, (ii) individually assessed reserves, and
(iii) qualitative (judgmental) reserves. Our methodologies and key assumptions for each of these components are discussed in Note 1
Accounting Policies in our 2023 Form 10-K.
Reasonable and Supportable Economic Forecast
Pursuant to the CECL standard, we are required to consider reasonable and supportable forecasts in estimating expected credit losses. For this purpose, we have established a framework that includes a three-year forecast period and the use of four economic scenarios with associated probability weights, which in combination create a forecast of expected economic outcomes. Credit losses estimated in our reasonable and supportable forecast period are sensitive to the shape and severity of the scenarios used and weights assigned to them.
To forecast the distribution of economic outcomes over the reasonable and supportable forecast period, we generate four economic forecast scenarios using a combination of quantitative macroeconomic models, other measures of economic activity and forward-looking expert judgment. Each scenario is then given an associated probability (weight) to represent our current expectation within that distribution over the forecast period. This process is informed by current economic conditions, expected business cycle evolution and the expert judgment of PNC’s RAC. This approach seeks to provide a reasonable representation of the forecast of expected economic outcomes and is used to estimate expected credit losses across a variety of loans, securities and other financial assets. Each quarter, the scenarios and their respective weights are presented to RAC for approval.
The scenarios used for the period ended March 31, 2024 consider, among other factors, ongoing inflationary pressures and the corresponding tightness of monetary policy and credit availability. While recession risks remain elevated, our most-likely expectation at March 31, 2024 is that the U.S. economy narrowly avoids a recession in 2024.
We used a number of economic variables in our scenarios, with two of the most significant drivers being real GDP and the U.S. unemployment rate. The following table presents a comparison of these two economic variables based on the weighted-average scenario forecasts used in determining our ACL at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q 35
Table 34: Key Macroeconomic Variables in CECL Weighted-Average Scenarios
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| Assumptions as of March 31, 2024 |
| 2024 | 2025 | 2026 |
U.S. real GDP (a) | 0.8% | 1.7% | 2.1% |
U.S. unemployment rate (b) | 4.6% | 4.8% | 4.3% |
| Assumptions as of December 31, 2023 |
| 2024 | 2025 | 2026 |
U.S. real GDP (a) | 0.1% | 1.5% | 2.0% |
U.S. unemployment rate (b) | 4.5% | 4.6% | 4.2% |
(a)Represents year-over-year growth (loss) rates.
(b)Represents quarterly average rate at December 31, 2024, 2025 and 2026, respectively.
Real GDP growth is expected to end 2024 at 0.8% on a weighted average basis, up from the 0.1% assumed at December 31, 2023, primarily due to stronger expected economic activity in 2024 than what was expected at the end of 2023. Growth then rises to 1.7% in 2025, before growing to 2.1% in 2026. The weighted-average unemployment rate is expected to end 2024 at 4.6%, up slightly from the 4.5% assumed at December 31, 2023. During the second half of 2025, the weighted-average unemployment increases to a peak of 5.0% before gradually improving to 4.8% by the fourth quarter of 2025. Further improvement is then expected in 2026 with the rate reaching 4.3% by the fourth quarter of 2026.
The current state of the economy continues to reflect uncertainty due to the foundational change in office demand from the acceptance of remote work, combined with inflationary pressures, interest rate movements, and declining consumer savings and deposit balances. As such, for both our commercial and consumer loan portfolios, PNC identified and performed significant analyses around segments impacted by such uncertainties to ensure our reserves are adequate, given our current macroeconomic expectations.
We believe the economic scenarios effectively reflect the distribution of potential economic outcomes. Additionally, through in-depth and granular analysis we have addressed reserve requirements for the specific populations most affected in the current environment. Through this approach, we believe the reserve levels appropriately reflect the expected credit losses in the portfolio as of the balance sheet date.

during the first quarter of 2024 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
We make statements in this Report, and we may from time to time make other statements, regarding our outlook for financial performance, such as earnings, revenues, expenses, tax rates, capital and liquidity levels and ratios, asset levels, asset quality, financial position, and other matters regarding or affecting us and our future business and operations, including our sustainability strategy, that are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as “believe,” “plan,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “see,” “look,” “intend,” “outlook,” “project,” “forecast,” “estimate,” “goal,” “will,” “should” and other similar words and expressions.
Forward-looking statements are necessarily subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties, which change over time. Future events or circumstances may change our outlook and may also affect the nature of the assumptions, risks and uncertainties to which our forward-looking statements are subject. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date made. We do not assume any duty and do not undertake any obligation to update forward-looking statements. Actual results or future events could differ, possibly materially, from those anticipated in forward-looking statements, as well as from historical performance. As a result, we caution against placing undue reliance on any forward-looking statements.
Our forward-looking statements are subject to the following principal risks and uncertainties.
•Our businesses, financial results and balance sheet values are affected by business and economic conditions, including:
–Changes in interest rates and valuations in debt, equity and other financial markets,
–Disruptions in the U.S. and global financial markets,
–Actions by the Federal Reserve Board, U.S. Treasury and other government agencies, including those that impact money supply, market interest rates and inflation,
–Changes in customer behavior due to changing business and economic conditions or legislative or regulatory initiatives,
–Changes in customers’, suppliers’ and other counterparties’ performance and creditworthiness,
–Impacts of sanctions, tariffs and other trade policies of the U.S. and its global trading partners,
–Impacts of changes in federal, state and local governmental policy, including on the regulatory landscape, capital markets, taxes, infrastructure spending and social programs,
–Our ability to attract, recruit and retain skilled employees, and
–Commodity price volatility.
•Our forward-looking financial statements are subject to the risk that economic and financial market conditions will be substantially different than those we are currently expecting. These statements are based on our views that:
–PNC’s baseline forecast is for slower economic growth in 2024 as consumer spending growth slows and higher interest rates remain a drag on the economy. The ongoing strength of the labor market will continue to support consumer spending. The FOMC is indicating that it will start to cut the federal funds rate later this year, with rate cuts supporting economic growth toward the end of 2024.
–Real GDP growth this year will be close to its trend of 2% and the unemployment rate will increase modestly to just above 4% by the end of 2024. Inflation will continue to slow as wage pressures abate, moving back to the Federal Reserve’s 2% long-term objective by the end of 2025.
–PNC expects the federal funds rate to remain unchanged between 5.25% and 5.50% through at least the first half of 2024, with federal funds rate cuts starting in the third quarter as inflationary pressures ease further. PNC expects two federal funds rate cuts in 2024, with the rate ending this year in a range between 4.75% and 5.00%.
•PNC’s ability to take certain capital actions, including returning capital to shareholders, is subject to PNC meeting or exceeding minimum capital levels, including a stress capital buffer established by the Federal Reserve Board in connection with the Federal Reserve Board’s CCAR process.
•PNC’s regulatory capital ratios in the future will depend on, among other things, PNC’s financial performance, the scope and terms of final capital regulations then in effect and management actions affecting the composition of PNC’s balance sheet. In addition, PNC’s ability to determine, evaluate and forecast regulatory capital ratios, and to take actions (such as capital distributions) based on actual or forecasted capital ratios, will be dependent at least in part on the development, validation and regulatory review of related models and the reliability of and risks resulting from extensive use of such models.
•Legal and regulatory developments could have an impact on our ability to operate our businesses, financial condition, results of operations, competitive position, reputation, or pursuit of attractive acquisition opportunities. Reputational impacts could affect matters such as business generation and retention, liquidity, funding and ability to attract and retain employees. These developments could include:
–Changes to laws and regulations, including changes affecting oversight of the financial services industry, changes in the enforcement and interpretation of such laws and regulations and changes in accounting and reporting standards.
38 The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q
–Unfavorable resolution of legal proceedings or other claims and regulatory and other governmental investigations or other inquiries resulting in monetary losses, costs, or alterations in our business practices and potentially causing reputational harm to PNC.
–Results of the regulatory examination and supervision process, including our failure to satisfy requirements of agreements with governmental agencies.
–Costs associated with obtaining rights in intellectual property claimed by others and of adequacy of our intellectual property protection in general.
•Business and operating results are affected by our ability to identify and effectively manage risks inherent in our businesses, including, where appropriate, through effective use of systems and controls, third-party insurance, derivatives, and capital management techniques and to meet evolving regulatory capital and liquidity standards.
•Our reputation and business and operating results may be affected by our ability to appropriately meet or address environmental, social or governance targets, goals, commitments or concerns that may arise.
•We grow our business in part through acquisitions and new strategic initiatives. Risks and uncertainties include those presented by the nature of the business acquired or strategic initiative, including in some cases those associated with our entry into new businesses or new geographic or other markets and risks resulting from our inexperience in those new areas, as well as risks and uncertainties related to the acquisition transactions themselves, regulatory issues, the integration of the acquired businesses into PNC after closing or any failure to execute strategic or operational plans.
•Competition can have an impact on customer acquisition, growth and retention and on credit spreads and product pricing, which can affect market share, deposits and revenues. Our ability to anticipate and respond to technological changes can also impact our ability to respond to customer needs and meet competitive demands.
•Business and operating results can also be affected by widespread manmade, natural and other disasters (including severe weather events), health emergencies, dislocations, geopolitical instabilities or events, terrorist activities, system failures or disruptions, security breaches, cyberattacks, international hostilities, or other extraordinary events beyond PNC’s control through impacts on the economy and financial markets generally or on us or our counterparties, customers or third-party vendors and service providers specifically.
We provide greater detail regarding these as well as other factors in our 2023 Form 10-K and elsewhere in this Report, including in the Risk Factors and Risk Management sections and the Legal Proceedings and Commitments Notes of the Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements in these reports. Our forward-looking statements may also be subject to other risks and uncertainties, including those discussed elsewhere in this Report or in our other filings with the SEC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
THE PNC FINANCIAL SERVICES GROUP, INC.
Unaudited
See page 90 for a glossary of certain terms and acronyms used in this Report.
BUSINESS
PNC is one of the largest diversified financial services companies in the U.S. and is headquartered in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
We have businesses engaged in retail banking, including residential mortgage, corporate and institutional banking and asset management, providing many of our products and services nationally. Our retail branch network is located coast-to-coast. We also have strategic international offices in four countries outside the U.S.
NOTE 1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Financial Statement Presentation
Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the parent company and its subsidiaries, most of which are wholly-owned, certain partnership interests and VIEs.
We prepared these consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP. We have eliminated intercompany accounts and transactions. We have also reclassified certain prior-year amounts to conform to the current period presentation, which did not have a
material impact on our consolidated financial condition or results of operations.
In our opinion, the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all normal, recurring adjustments needed to state fairly our results for the interim periods. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year or any other interim period.
We have also considered the impact of subsequent events on these consolidated financial statements.
When preparing these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements, we have assumed that you have read the audited consolidated financial statements included in our 2023 Form 10-K. Reference is made to Note 1 Accounting Policies in our 2023 Form 10-K for a detailed description of significant accounting policies. These interim consolidated financial statements serve to update our 2023 Form 10-K and may not include all information and Notes necessary to constitute a complete set of financial statements. There have been no significant changes to our accounting policies as disclosed in our 2023 Form 10-K.
Use of Estimates
We prepared these consolidated financial statements using financial information available at the time of preparation, which requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. Our most significant estimates pertain to the ACL and our fair value measurements. Actual results may differ from the estimates and the differences may be material to the consolidated financial statements.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
See Note 1 Accounting Policies in our 2023 Form 10-K for recently adopted accounting standards. We did not adopt any new accounting standards during the first quarter of 2024 that impacted our financial statements.

(a) At March 31, 2024, the accrued interest associated with our held to maturity and available for sale portfolios totaled $244 million and $140 million, respectively. The comparable amounts at December 31, 2023 were $281 million and $144 million, respectively. These amounts are included in Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
(b) Credit ratings represent a primary credit quality indicator used to monitor and manage credit risk. Of our total securities portfolio, 97% were rated AAA/AA at both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
(c) Amortized cost is presented net of allowance of $87 million for securities available for sale, primarily related to non-agency commercial mortgage-backed securities, and $6 million for securities held to maturity at March 31, 2024. The comparable amounts at December 31, 2023 were $86 million and $6 million, respectively.
(d) Held to maturity securities transferred from available for sale are included in held to maturity at fair value at the time of the transfer. The amortized cost of held to maturity securities included net unrealized losses of $4.0 billion at March 31, 2024 related to securities transferred, which are offset in AOCI, net of tax. The comparable amount at December 31, 2023 was $4.2 billion.
The fair value of investment securities is impacted by interest rates, credit spreads, market volatility and liquidity conditions. Securities available for sale are carried at fair value with net unrealized gains and losses included in Total shareholders’ equity as AOCI, unless credit-related. Net unrealized gains and losses are determined by taking the difference between the fair value of a security and its amortized cost, net of any allowance. Securities held to maturity are carried at amortized cost, net of any allowance. Investment securities at March 31, 2024 included $262 million of net unsettled purchases that represent non-cash investing activity, and accordingly, are not reflected on the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. The comparable amount for March 31, 2023 was $30 million of net unsettled sales.
We maintain the allowance for investment securities at levels that we believe to be appropriate as of the balance sheet date to absorb expected credit losses on our portfolio. At March 31, 2024, the allowance for investment securities was $93 million and primarily related to non-agency commercial mortgage-backed securities in the available for sale portfolio. The comparable amount at December 31, 2023 was $92 million. See Note 1 Accounting Policies in our 2023 Form 10-K for a discussion of the methodologies used to determine the allowance for investment securities.
At March 31, 2024, AOCI included pretax losses of $289 million from derivatives that hedged the purchase of investment securities classified as held to maturity. The losses will be accreted to interest income as an adjustment of yield on the securities.
Table 36 presents the gross unrealized losses and fair value of securities available for sale that do not have an associated allowance for investment securities at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. These securities are segregated between investments that had been in a continuous unrealized loss position for less than twelve months and twelve months or more, based on the point in time that the fair

value declined below the amortized cost basis. All securities included in the table have been evaluated to determine if a credit loss exists. As part of that assessment, as of March 31, 2024, we concluded that we do not intend to sell and believe we will not be required to sell these securities prior to recovery of the amortized cost basis.

NOTE 3 LOANS AND RELATED ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES
Loan Portfolio
Our loan portfolio consists of two portfolio segments – Commercial and Consumer. Each of these segments comprises multiple loan classes. Classes are characterized by similarities in risk attributes and the manner in which we monitor and assess credit risk.
| | | | | | | | |
Commercial | | Consumer |
|
• Commercial and industrial | | • Residential real estate |
• Commercial real estate | | • Home equity |
• Equipment lease financing | | • Automobile |
| | • Credit card |
| | • Education |
| | • Other consumer |
| | |
See Note 1 Accounting Policies in our 2023 Form 10-K for additional information on our loan related policies.
Credit Quality
We closely monitor economic conditions and loan performance trends to manage and evaluate our exposure to credit risk within the loan portfolio based on our defined loan classes. In doing so, we use several credit quality indicators, including, but not limited to, trends in delinquency rates, nonperforming status, analyses of PD and LGD ratings, updated credit scores and originated and updated LTV ratios.
We manage credit risk based on the risk profile of the borrower, repayment sources, underlying collateral and other support given current events, economic conditions and expectations. We refine our practices to meet the changing environment such as inflation levels, industry specific risks, interest rate levels, the level of consumer savings and deposit balances, and structural and secular changes fostered by the pandemic. To mitigate losses and enhance customer support, we offer loan modifications and collection programs to assist our customers.
Table 39 presents the composition and delinquency status of our loan portfolio at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. Loan delinquencies include government insured or guaranteed loans and loans accounted for under the fair value option.

(d)Consumer loans accounted for under the fair value option for which we do not expect to collect substantially all principal and interest are subject to nonaccrual accounting and classification upon meeting any of our nonaccrual policy criteria. Given that these loans are not accounted for at amortized cost, they have been excluded from the nonperforming loan population.
(e)Includes unearned income, unamortized deferred fees and costs on originated loans and premiums or discounts on purchased loans totaling $0.9 billion and $1.0 billion at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
(f)Collateral dependent loans totaled $1.4 billion at both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
At March 31, 2024, we pledged $50.8 billion of commercial and other loans to the Federal Reserve Bank and $90.9 billion of residential real estate and other loans to the FHLB as collateral for the ability to borrow, if necessary. The comparable amounts at December 31, 2023 were $51.3 billion and $89.5 billion, respectively. Amounts pledged reflect the unpaid principal balances.
Nonperforming Assets
Nonperforming assets include nonperforming loans and leases, OREO and foreclosed assets. Nonperforming loans are those loans accounted for at amortized cost whose credit quality has deteriorated to the extent that full collection of contractual principal and interest is not probable. Interest income is not recognized on these loans. Loans accounted for under the fair value option are reported as performing loans; however, when nonaccrual criteria is met, interest income is not recognized on these loans. Additionally, certain government insured or guaranteed loans for which we expect to collect substantially all principal and interest are not reported as nonperforming loans and continue to accrue interest. See Note 1 Accounting Policies in our 2023 Form 10-K for additional information on our nonperforming loan and lease policies.

Repayment plans are excluded from Table 45. The terms of these programs, which are offered for certain consumer products, are as follows:
•Credit card and unsecured lines of credit
•Short-term programs are granted for periods of 6 and 12 months. These programs are structurally similar such that the interest rate is reduced to a standard rate of 4.99% and the minimum payment percentage is adjusted to 1.90% of the outstanding balance. At the end of the 6 or 12 months, the borrower is returned to the original contractual interest rate and minimum payment amount specified in the original lending agreement.
•Fully-amortized repayment plans are also granted, the most common of which being a 60 month program. In this program, we convert the borrower’s drawn and unpaid balances into a fully-amortized repayment plan consisting of an interest rate of 4.99% and an adjusted minimum payment percentage of 1.90% of the outstanding balance. This fully-amortized program is designed in a manner that allows the drawn and unpaid amounts to be recaptured at the end of the 60 months.
•Home equity loans and lines of credit
•Fixed payment plan programs establish a modified monthly payment that is informed by the borrower’s financial situation and the current market environment at the time of modification, among other factors. As such, we may change the borrower’s interest rate, modify the term of the loan, and/or defer payment to arrive at the modified monthly payment. Each of the aforementioned terms may increase or decrease, and may vary from loan to loan, based on the individual loan and borrower characteristics.

We generally consider FDMs to have subsequently defaulted when they become 60 days past due after the most recent date the loan was modified. At March 31, 2024, loans that both (i) subsequently defaulted during the three months ended and (ii) were classified as FDMs during the twelve months preceding the default date were $49 million. Subsequently defaulted loans were not material during the three months ended March 31, 2023.
Allowance for Credit Losses
We maintain the ACL related to loans at levels that we believe to be appropriate to absorb expected credit losses in the portfolios as of the balance sheet date. See Note 1 Accounting Policies in our 2023 Form 10-K for a discussion of the methodologies used to determine this allowance. A rollforward of the ACL related to loans follows:

NOTE 4 LOAN SALE AND SERVICING ACTIVITIES AND VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES
Loan Sale and Servicing Activities
As more fully described in Note 4 Loan Sale and Servicing Activities and Variable Interest Entities in our 2023 Form 10-K, we have transferred residential and commercial mortgage loans in securitization or sales transactions in which we have continuing involvement. Our continuing involvement in the FNMA, FHLMC and GNMA securitizations, Non-agency securitizations and loan sale transactions generally consists of servicing, repurchasing previously transferred loans under certain conditions and loss share arrangements, and, in limited circumstances, holding of mortgage-backed securities issued by the securitization SPEs.
We earn servicing and other ancillary fees for our role as servicer and, depending on the contractual terms of the servicing arrangement, we can be terminated as servicer with or without cause. At the consummation date of each type of loan transfer where we retain the servicing, we recognize a servicing right at fair value. See Note 8 Commitments and Note 11 Fair Value for information on our servicing rights, including the carrying value of servicing assets.

(d)Includes contractually specified servicing fees, late charges and ancillary fees.
(e)Represents cash flows on securities where we transferred to and/or service loans for a securitization SPE and we hold securities issued by that SPE. The carrying values of such securities held were $19.8 billion, $20.4 billion and $21.6 billion in residential mortgage-backed securities at March 31, 2024, December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023, respectively. The carrying values of commercial mortgage-backed securities were $0.7 billion at each March 31, 2024, December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023.
Table 50 presents information about the principal balances of transferred loans that we service and are not recorded on our Consolidated Balance Sheet. We would only experience a loss on these transferred loans if we were required to repurchase a loan, where the repurchase price exceeded the loan’s fair value, due to a breach in representations and warranties or a loss sharing arrangement associated with our continuing involvement with these loans. The estimate of losses related to breaches in representations and warranties was insignificant at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Net charge-offs for commercial mortgages represent credit losses less recoveries distributed and as reported by the trustee for commercial mortgage-backed securitizations. Realized losses for Agency securitizations are not reflected as we do not manage the underlying real estate upon foreclosure and, as such, do not have access to loss information.
Variable Interest Entities (VIEs)
As discussed in Note 4 Loan Sale and Servicing Activities and Variable Interest Entities included in our 2023 Form 10-K, we are involved with various entities in the normal course of business that are deemed to be VIEs.
The following table provides a summary of non-consolidated VIEs with which we have significant continuing involvement but are not the primary beneficiary. We have excluded certain transactions with non-consolidated VIEs from the balances presented in Table 51 where we have determined that our continuing involvement is insignificant. We do not consider our continuing involvement to be significant when it relates to a VIE where we only invest in securities issued by the VIE and were not involved in the design of the VIE or where no transfers have occurred between us and the VIE. In addition, where we only have lending arrangements in the normal course of business with entities that could be VIEs, we have excluded these transactions with non-consolidated entities from the
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q 61
balances presented in Table 51. These loans are included as part of the credit quality disclosures that we make in Note 3 Loans and Related Allowance for Credit Losses.

NOTE 5 GOODWILL AND MORTGAGE SERVICING RIGHTS
Goodwill
See Note 5 Goodwill and Mortgage Servicing Rights in our 2023 Form 10-K for more information regarding our goodwill.
Mortgage Servicing Rights
We recognize the right to service mortgage loans for others as an intangible asset when the benefits of servicing are expected to be more than adequate compensation to a servicer for performing the servicing. MSRs are recognized either when purchased or when originated loans are sold with servicing retained. MSRs totaled $3.8 billion at March 31, 2024 and $3.7 billion at December 31, 2023, and consisted of loan servicing contracts for commercial and residential mortgages which are measured at fair value.
We recognize gains (losses) on changes in the fair value of MSRs. MSRs are subject to changes in value from actual or expected prepayment of the underlying loans and defaults, as well as market driven changes in interest rates. We manage this risk by economically hedging the fair value of MSRs with securities, derivative instruments and resale agreements, which are expected to increase (or decrease) in value when the value of MSRs decreases (or increases).
See the Sensitivity Analysis section of this Note 5 for more detail on our fair value measurement of MSRs. See Note 5 Goodwill and Mortgage Servicing Rights and Note 14 Fair Value in our 2023 Form 10-K for more detail on our fair value measurement and our accounting of MSRs.

Sensitivity Analysis
The fair value of commercial and residential MSRs and significant inputs to the valuation models as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 are shown in Tables 53 and 54. The expected and actual rates of mortgage loan prepayments are significant factors driving the fair value. Management uses both internal proprietary models and a third-party model to estimate future commercial mortgage loan prepayments and a third-party model to estimate future residential mortgage loan prepayments. These models have been refined based on current market conditions and management judgment. Future interest rates are another important factor in the valuation of MSRs. Management utilizes market implied forward interest rates to estimate the future direction of mortgage and discount rates. The forward rates utilized are derived from the current yield curve for U.S. dollar interest rate swaps and are consistent with pricing of capital markets instruments. Changes in the shape and slope of the forward curve in future periods may result in volatility in the fair value estimate.
A sensitivity analysis of the hypothetical effect on the fair value of MSRs to adverse changes in key assumptions is presented in Tables 53 and 54. These sensitivities do not include the impact of the related hedging activities. Changes in fair value generally cannot be extrapolated because the relationship of the change in the assumption to the change in fair value may not be linear. Also, the effect of a variation in a particular assumption on the fair value of the MSRs is calculated independently without changing any other assumption. Changes in one factor may result in changes in another (e.g., changes in mortgage interest rates, which drive changes in prepayment rate estimates, could result in changes in the interest rate spread), which could either magnify or counteract the sensitivities.
The following tables set forth the fair value of commercial and residential MSRs and the sensitivity analysis of the hypothetical effect on the fair value of MSRs to immediate adverse changes of 10% and 20% in those assumptions:

These commitments generally have fixed expiration dates, may require payment of a fee and generally contain termination clauses in the event the customer’s credit quality deteriorates.
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q 65
Net Outstanding Standby Letters of Credit
We issue standby letters of credit and share in the risk of standby letters of credit issued by other financial institutions, in each case to support obligations of our customers to third parties, such as insurance requirements and the facilitation of transactions involving capital markets product execution. Approximately 97% of our net outstanding standby letters of credit were rated as Pass at March 31, 2024, with the remainder rated as Criticized. An internal credit rating of Pass indicates the expected risk of loss is currently low, while a rating of Criticized indicates a higher degree of risk.
If the customer fails to meet its financial or performance obligation to the third party under the terms of the contract or there is a need to support a remarketing program, then upon a draw by a beneficiary, subject to the terms of the letter of credit, we would be obligated to make payment to them. The standby letters of credit outstanding on March 31, 2024 had terms ranging from less than one year to seven years.
As of March 31, 2024, assets of $1.1 billion secured certain specifically identified standby letters of credit. In addition, a portion of the remaining standby letters of credit issued on behalf of specific customers is secured by collateral or guarantees that secure the customers’ other obligations to us. The carrying amount of the liability for our obligations related to standby letters of credit and participations in standby letters of credit was $0.2 billion at March 31, 2024 and is included in Other liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheet.

NOTE 11 FAIR VALUE
Fair Value Measurement
We measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or the price that would be paid to transfer a liability on the measurement date and is determined using an exit price in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. The fair value hierarchy established by GAAP requires us to maximize the use of observable inputs when measuring fair value. For more information regarding the fair value hierarchy, see Note 14 Fair Value in our 2023 Form 10-K.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
For more information on the valuation methodologies used to measure assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis, see Note 14 Fair Value in our 2023 Form 10-K. The following table summarizes our assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, including instruments for which we have elected the fair value option.

Financial Assets Accounted for at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
We may be required to measure certain financial assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These adjustments to fair value usually result from the application of lower of amortized cost or fair value accounting or write-downs of individual assets due to impairment and are included in Table 67. For more information regarding the valuation methodologies of our financial assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, see Note 14 Fair Value in our 2023 Form 10-K.

NOTE 12 FINANCIAL DERIVATIVES
We use a variety of financial derivatives to both mitigate exposure to market (primarily interest rate) and credit risks inherent in our business activities, as well as to facilitate customer risk management activities. We manage these risks as part of our overall asset and liability management process and through our credit policies and procedures. Derivatives represent contracts between parties that usually require little or no initial net investment and result in one party delivering cash or another type of asset to the other party based on a notional amount and an underlying as specified in the contract.
Derivative transactions are often measured in terms of notional amount, but this amount is generally not exchanged and it is not recorded on the balance sheet. The notional amount is the basis to which the underlying is applied to determine required payments under the derivative contract. The underlying is a referenced interest rate, security price, credit spread or other index. Residential and commercial real estate loan commitments associated with loans to be sold also qualify as derivative instruments.
For more information regarding derivatives, see Note 1 Accounting Policies and Note 15 Financial Derivatives in our 2023 Form 10-K.

Derivatives Designated As Hedging Instruments
Certain derivatives used to manage interest rate and foreign exchange risk as part of our asset and liability risk management activities are designated as accounting hedges. Derivatives hedging the risks associated with changes in the fair value of assets or liabilities are considered fair value hedges, derivatives hedging the variability of expected future cash flows are considered cash flow hedges and derivatives hedging a net investment in a foreign subsidiary are considered net investment hedges. Designating derivatives as accounting hedges allows for gains and losses on those derivatives to be recognized in the same period and in the same income statement line item as the earnings impact of the hedged items.
Fair Value Hedges
We enter into receive-fixed, pay-variable interest rate swaps to hedge changes in the fair value of outstanding fixed-rate debt caused by fluctuations in market interest rates. We also enter into pay-fixed, receive-variable interest rate swaps and zero-coupon swaps to hedge changes in the fair value of fixed rate and zero-coupon investment securities caused by fluctuations in market interest rates. Gains and losses on the interest rate swaps designated in these hedge relationships, along with the offsetting gains and losses on the hedged items attributable to the hedged risk, are recognized in current earnings within the same income statement line item.
Cash Flow Hedges
We enter into receive-fixed, pay-variable interest rate swaps and interest rate caps and floors to modify the interest rate characteristics of designated commercial loans from variable to fixed in order to reduce the impact of changes in future cash flows due to market interest rate changes. We also periodically enter into forward purchase and sale contracts to hedge the variability of the consideration that will be paid or received related to the purchase or sale of investment securities. The forecasted purchase or sale is consummated upon gross settlement of the forward contract itself. For these cash flow hedges, gains and losses on the hedging instruments are recorded in AOCI and are then reclassified into earnings in the same period the hedged cash flows affect earnings and within the same income statement line as the hedged cash flows.
In the 12 months that follow March 31, 2024, we expect to reclassify net derivative losses of $1.2 billion pretax, or $0.9 billion after-tax, from AOCI to interest income for these cash flow hedge strategies. This reclassified amount could differ from amounts actually recognized due to changes in interest rates, hedge de-designations and the addition of other hedges subsequent to March 31, 2024. As of March 31, 2024, the maximum length of time over which forecasted transactions are hedged is ten years.

(b)Carrying value shown represents amortized cost.
Net Investment Hedges
We enter into foreign currency forward contracts to hedge non-U.S. dollar net investments in foreign subsidiaries against adverse changes in foreign exchange rates. We assess whether the hedging relationship is highly effective in achieving offsetting changes in the value of the hedge and hedged item by qualitatively verifying that the critical terms of the hedge and hedged item match at the inception of the hedging relationship and on an ongoing basis. Net investment hedge derivatives are classified as foreign exchange contracts. There were no components of derivative gains or losses excluded from the assessment of the hedge effectiveness for the periods presented.

Offsetting and Counterparty Credit Risk
We generally utilize a net presentation on the Consolidated Balance Sheet for those derivative financial instruments entered into with counterparties under legally enforceable master netting agreements. The master netting agreements reduce credit risk by permitting the closeout netting of all outstanding derivative instruments under the master netting agreement with the same counterparty upon the occurrence of an event of default. The master netting agreement also may require the exchange of cash or marketable securities to collateralize either party’s net position. For additional information on derivative offsetting and counterparty credit risk, see Note 15 Financial Derivatives in our 2023 Form 10-K.
Table 75 shows the impact legally enforceable master netting agreements had on our derivative assets and derivative liabilities at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The table includes cash collateral held or pledged under legally enforceable master netting agreements. The table also includes the fair value of any securities collateral held or pledged under legally enforceable master netting agreements. Cash and securities collateral amounts are included in the table only to the extent of the related net derivative fair values.
Table 75 includes OTC derivatives not settled through an exchange (“OTC derivatives”) and OTC derivatives cleared through a central clearing house (“OTC cleared derivatives”). OTC derivatives represent contracts executed bilaterally with counterparties that are not settled through an organized exchange or directly cleared through a central clearing house. The majority of OTC derivatives are governed by the ISDA documentation or other legally enforceable master netting agreements. OTC cleared derivatives represent contracts executed bilaterally with counterparties in the OTC market that are novated to a central clearing house that then becomes our counterparty. OTC cleared derivative instruments are typically settled in cash each day based on the prior day value.

In addition to using master netting agreements and other collateral agreements to reduce credit risk associated with derivative instruments, we also seek to manage credit risk by evaluating credit ratings of counterparties and by using internal credit analysis, limits and monitoring procedures.
At March 31, 2024, cash and debt securities (primarily agency mortgage-backed securities) totaling $2.7 billion were pledged to us under master netting agreements and other collateral agreements to collateralize net derivative assets due from counterparties and to meet initial margin requirements, and we pledged cash and debt securities (primarily agency mortgage-backed securities) totaling $2.3 billion under these agreements to collateralize net derivative liabilities owed to counterparties and to meet initial margin requirements. These totals may differ from the amounts presented in the preceding offsetting table because these totals may include collateral exchanged under an agreement that does not qualify as a master netting agreement or because the total amount of collateral pledged exceeds the net derivative fair values with the counterparty as of the balance sheet date due to timing or other factors, such as initial margin. To the extent not netted against the derivative fair values under a master netting agreement, the receivable for cash pledged is included in Other assets and the obligation for cash held is included in Other liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheet. Securities pledged to us by counterparties are not recognized on our balance sheet. Likewise, securities we have pledged to counterparties remain on our balance sheet.
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q 81
Credit-Risk Contingent Features
Certain derivative agreements contain various credit-risk-related contingent provisions, such as those that require our debt to maintain a specified credit rating from one or more of the major credit rating agencies. If our debt ratings were to fall below such specified ratings, the counterparties to the derivative instruments could request immediate payment or demand immediate and ongoing full collateralization on derivative instruments in net liability positions. The following table presents the aggregate fair value of derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features, the associated collateral posted in the normal course of business and the maximum amount of collateral we would be required to post if the credit-risk-related contingent features underlying these agreements had been triggered on March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

NOTE 13 LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We establish accruals for legal proceedings, including litigation and regulatory and governmental investigations and inquiries, when information related to the loss contingencies represented by those matters indicates both that a loss is probable and that the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. Any such accruals are adjusted thereafter as appropriate to reflect changed circumstances. When we are able to do so, we also determine estimates of reasonably possible losses or ranges of reasonably possible losses, whether in excess of any related accrued liability or where there is no accrued liability, for disclosed legal proceedings (“Disclosed Matters,” which are those matters disclosed in this Note 13 as well as those matters disclosed in Note 20 Legal Proceedings in our 2023 Form 10-K (such prior disclosure referred to as “Prior Disclosure”)). For Disclosed Matters where we are able to estimate such possible losses or ranges of possible losses, as of March 31, 2024, we estimate that it is reasonably possible that we could incur losses in excess of related accrued liabilities, if any, in an aggregate amount less than $300 million. The estimates included in this amount are based on our analysis of currently available information and are subject to significant judgment and a variety of assumptions and uncertainties. As new information is obtained we may change our estimates. Due to the inherent subjectivity of the assessments and unpredictability of outcomes of legal proceedings, any amounts accrued or included in this aggregate amount may not represent the ultimate loss to us from the legal proceedings in question. Thus, our exposure and ultimate losses may be higher, and possibly significantly so, than the amounts accrued or this aggregate amount.
As a result of the types of factors described in Note 20 Legal Proceedings in our 2023 Form 10-K, we are unable, at this time, to estimate the losses that are reasonably possible to be incurred or ranges of such losses with respect to some of the Disclosed Matters, and the aggregate estimated amount provided above does not include an estimate for every Disclosed Matter. Therefore, as the estimated aggregate amount disclosed above does not include all of the Disclosed Matters, the amount disclosed above does not represent our maximum reasonably possible loss exposure for all of the Disclosed Matters. The estimated aggregate amount also does not reflect any of our exposure to matters not so disclosed, as discussed below under “Other.”
We include in some of the descriptions of individual Disclosed Matters certain quantitative information related to the plaintiff’s claim against us as alleged in the plaintiff’s pleadings or other public filings or otherwise publicly available information. While information of this type may provide insight into the potential magnitude of a matter, it does not necessarily represent our estimate of reasonably possible loss or our judgment as to any currently appropriate accrual.
Some of our exposure in Disclosed Matters may be offset by applicable insurance coverage. We do not consider the possible availability of insurance coverage in determining the amounts of any accruals (although we would record the amount of related insurance recoveries that are deemed probable up to the amount of the accrual) or in determining any estimates of possible losses or ranges of possible losses.
Interchange Litigation
In March 2024, the parties to the class action seeking equitable relief in the proceedings in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York under the caption In re Payment Card Interchange Fee and Merchant-Discount Antitrust Litigation (Master File No. 1:05-md-1720-MKB-JAM) entered into an agreement for certain rule and rate changes to resolve the matter. The settlement must be preliminarily approved by the district court prior to issuance of notice to the class and proceedings to consider final approval.

Regulatory and Governmental Inquiries
We are the subject of investigations, audits, examinations and other forms of regulatory and governmental inquiry covering a broad
range of issues in our consumer, mortgage, brokerage, securities and other financial services businesses, as well as other aspects of our operations. In some cases, these inquiries are part of reviews of specified activities at multiple industry participants; in others, they are directed at PNC individually. From time to time, these inquiries have involved and may in the future involve or lead to regulatory enforcement actions and other administrative proceedings. These inquiries have also led to and may in the future lead to civil or criminal judicial proceedings. Some of these inquiries result in remedies including fines, penalties, restitution, or alterations in our business practices, and in additional expenses and collateral costs and other consequences. Such remedies and other consequences typically have not been material to us from a financial standpoint, but could be in the future. Even if not financially material, they may result in significant reputational harm or other adverse consequences. Our practice is to cooperate fully with regulatory and governmental investigations, audits and other inquiries.
Other
In addition to the proceedings or other matters described in Prior Disclosure, PNC and persons to whom we may have indemnification obligations, in the normal course of business, are subject to various other pending and threatened legal proceedings in which claims for monetary damages and other relief are asserted. We do not anticipate, at the present time, that the ultimate aggregate liability, if any, arising out of such other legal proceedings will have a material adverse effect on our financial position. However, we cannot now determine whether or not any claims asserted against us or others to whom we may have indemnification obligations, whether in the proceedings or other matters described above or otherwise, will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations in any future reporting period, which will depend on, among other things, the amount of the loss resulting from the claim and the amount of income otherwise reported for the reporting period.
NOTE 14 SEGMENT REPORTING
We have three reportable business segments: Retail Banking, Corporate & Institutional Banking and Asset Management Group:
Retail Banking provides deposit, lending, brokerage, insurance services, investment management and cash management products and services to consumer and small business customers who are serviced through our coast-to-coast branch network, digital channels, ATMs, or through our phone-based customer contact centers. Deposit products include checking, savings and money market accounts and time deposits. Lending products include residential mortgages, home equity loans and lines of credit, auto loans, credit cards, education loans and personal and small business loans and lines of credit. The residential mortgage loans are directly originated within our branch network and nationwide, and are typically underwritten to agency and/or third-party standards, and either sold, servicing retained or held on our balance sheet. Brokerage, investment management and cash management products and services include managed, education, retirement and trust accounts.
Corporate & Institutional Banking provides lending, treasury management, capital markets and advisory products and services to mid-sized and large corporations and government and not-for-profit entities. Lending products include secured and unsecured loans, letters of credit and equipment leases. The Treasury Management business provides corporations with cash and investment management services, receivables and disbursement management services, funds transfer services and access to online/mobile information management and reporting services. Capital markets and advisory includes services and activities primarily related to merger and acquisitions advisory, equity capital markets advisory, asset-backed financing, loan syndication, securities underwriting and customer-related trading. We also provide commercial loan servicing and technology solutions for the commercial real estate finance industry. Products and services are provided nationally.
Asset Management Group provides private banking for high net worth and ultra high net worth clients and institutional asset management. The Asset Management group is composed of two operating units:
•PNC Private Bank provides products and services to emerging affluent, high net worth and ultra high net worth individuals and their families including investment and retirement planning, customized investment management, credit and cash management solutions, trust management and administration. In addition, multi-generational family planning services are also provided to ultra high net worth individuals and their families, which include estate, financial, tax, fiduciary and customized performance reporting through PNC Private Bank Hawthorn.
•Institutional Asset Management provides outsourced chief investment officer, custody, cash and fixed income client solutions and retirement plan fiduciary investment services to institutional clients including corporations, healthcare systems, insurance companies, unions, municipalities and non-profits.
The remaining corporate operations are reflected in Other:
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q 83
Other includes residual activities that do not meet the criteria for disclosure as a separate reportable business, such as asset and liability management activities including net securities gains or losses, ACL for investment securities, certain trading activities, certain runoff consumer loan portfolios, private equity investments, intercompany eliminations, corporate overhead net of allocations, tax adjustments that are not allocated to business segments, exited businesses and the residual impact from funds transfer pricing operations. The decline in Other earnings for the first three months of 2024 compared to the same period in 2023 was driven by the residual impacts from funds transfer pricing due to the rising interest rate environment, along with the costs for the FDIC special assessment.
Basis of Presentation
Results of individual businesses are presented based on our internal management reporting practices. There is no comprehensive, authoritative body of guidance for management accounting equivalent to GAAP; therefore, the financial results of our individual businesses are not necessarily comparable with similar information for any other company. We periodically refine our internal methodologies as management reporting practices are enhanced. To the extent significant and practicable, retrospective application of new methodologies is made to prior period reportable business segment results and disclosures to create comparability with the current period.
Funds Transfer Pricing
Net interest income in business segment results reflects our internal funds transfer pricing methodology, which is designed to consider interest rate and liquidity risks. Under our methodology, assets receive a funding charge while liabilities and capital receive a funding credit based on market interest rates, product characteristics and other factors.
Our transfer pricing framework considers the application of funding curves and methodologies consistently across the balance sheet. A residual gain or loss from funds transfer pricing operations is retained within Other. This residual gain or loss is reviewed by management quarterly, in accordance with the interagency guidance of the FDIC, Federal Reserve and OCC.
Segment Allocations
Financial results are presented, to the extent practicable, as if each business operated on a standalone basis, and includes expense allocations for corporate overhead services used by the business segments.
Certain costs are retained within Other. These costs are not allocated to our business segments because they (i) are transitory or highly irregular in nature, (ii) exist solely to support corporate activities unrelated to business segment operations, or (iii) reflect residual costs for an exited business. During the first quarter of 2024, Other noninterest expense for the Other category included an additional expense related to the increase in the FDIC’s expected losses. This cost was not allocated to our business segments due to its irregular nature.
We have allocated the ALLL and the allowance for unfunded lending related commitments based on the loan exposures within each business segment’s portfolio.

NOTE 15 FEE-BASED REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS
As more fully described in Note 23 Fee-based Revenue from Contracts with Customers in our 2023 Form 10-K, a subset of our noninterest income relates to certain fee-based revenue within the scope of ASC Topic 606 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).
Fee-based revenue within the scope of Topic 606 is recognized within our three reportable business segments: Retail Banking, Corporate & Institutional Banking and Asset Management Group. Interest income, income from lease contracts, fair value gains from financial instruments (including derivatives), income from mortgage servicing rights and guarantee products, letter of credit fees, non-refundable fees associated with acquiring or originating a loan and gains from the sale of financial assets are outside of the scope of Topic 606.
Table 78 presents the noninterest income recognized within the scope of Topic 606 for each of our three reportable business segments’ principal products and services, along with the relationship to the noninterest income revenue streams shown on our Consolidated Income Statement. For a description of the fee-based revenue and how it is recognized for each segment’s principal products and services, see Note 23 Fee-based Revenue from Contracts with Customers in our 2023 Form 10-K.

NOTE 16 SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On April 8, 2024, Visa launched the first of its previously announced exchange offers allowing holders of the currently restricted outstanding shares of Visa Class B-1 common stock to exchange all or a portion of such shares for equal parts of Visa Class B-2 common stock and Visa Class C common stock, and cash in lieu of any fractional shares. The exchange period is set to close on or about May 3, 2024. Following the closing of this initial exchange offer, and acceptance by Visa of PNC’s request to fully participate in the exchange program, PNC would be able to liquidate 50 percent of its holdings in Visa during the second and third quarters of 2024 by transferring newly held Visa Class C common stock in certain transactions where such stock would convert into publicly traded Visa Class A common stock, which could then be sold in market transactions, subject to certain timing restrictions. The Visa Class B-2 common stock PNC receives in the initial exchange offer would remain subject to the same restrictions currently imposed on the Visa Class B-1 common stock. Participation in the exchange requires PNC to agree to a make-whole agreement that subjects PNC to the same indemnity obligations to Visa as are currently present. PNC has tendered its Class B-1 common stock to fully participate in the exchange program.

(a)Nonaccrual loans are included in loans, net of unearned income. The impact of financial derivatives used in interest rate risk management is included in the interest income/expense and average yields/rates of the related assets and liabilities. Basis adjustments related to hedged items are included in noninterest-earning assets and noninterest-bearing liabilities. Average balances of securities are based on amortized historical cost (excluding adjustments to fair value, which are included in other assets). Average balances for certain loans and borrowed funds accounted for at fair value are included in noninterest-earning assets and noninterest-bearing liabilities, with changes in fair value recorded in Noninterest income.
(b)Loan fees for the three months ended March 31, 2024, December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023 were $47 million, $46 million and $46 million, respectively.
(c)Interest income calculated as taxable-equivalent interest income. To provide more meaningful comparisons of interest income and yields for all interest-earning assets, as well as net interest margins, we use interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis in calculating average yields and net interest margin by increasing the interest income earned on tax-exempt assets to make it fully equivalent to interest income earned on taxable investments. This adjustment is not permitted under GAAP. See Reconciliation of Taxable-Equivalent Net Interest Income in this Statistical Information section for more information.

(a)The interest income earned on certain interest-earning assets is completely or partially exempt from federal income tax. As such, these tax-exempt instruments typically yield lower returns than taxable investments. To provide more meaningful comparisons of net interest income, we use interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis by increasing the interest income earned on tax-exempt assets to make it fully equivalent to interest income earned on taxable investments. This adjustment is not permitted under GAAP.

(a)Core noninterest expense is a non-GAAP measure calculated based on Noninterest expense less costs related to the FDIC’s special assessment and the workforce reduction that were incurred outside of our core business operations. We believe this non-GAAP measure to be a useful tool for comparison of operating expenses incurred during the normal course of business.

(a)Includes PNC common stock purchased in connection with our various employee benefit plans generally related to forfeitures of unvested restricted stock awards and shares used to cover employee payroll tax withholding requirements. See Note 16 Employee Benefit Plans and Note 17 Stock Based Compensation Plans in our 2023 Form 10-K, which include additional information regarding our employee benefit and equity compensation plans that use PNC common stock.
(b)Consistent with the SCB framework, which allows for capital return in amounts in excess of the SCB minimum levels, our Board of Directors has authorized a repurchase framework under the previously approved repurchase program of up to 100 million common shares, of which approximately 44% were still available for repurchase at March 31, 2024. In light of the Federal banking agencies proposed rules to adjust the Basel III capital framework, second quarter of 2024 share repurchase activity is expected to approximate the recent quarterly average share repurchase levels. PNC continues to evaluate the potential impact of the proposed rules and may adjust share repurchase activity depending on market and economic conditions, as well as other factors. PNC’s SCB for the four-quarter period beginning October 1, 2023 is the regulatory minimum of 2.5%.

CORPORATE INFORMATION
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc.
Internet Information
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc.’s financial reports and information about its products and services are available on the internet at www.pnc.com. We provide information for investors on our corporate website under “About Us – Investor Relations.” We use our account with X, formerly known as Twitter, @pncnews, as an additional way of disseminating to the public information that may be relevant to investors.
We generally post the following under “About Us – Investor Relations” shortly before or promptly following its first use or release: financially-related press releases, including earnings releases and supplemental financial information, various SEC filings, including annual, quarterly and current reports and proxy statements, presentation materials associated with earnings and other investor conference calls or events, and access to live and recorded audio from earnings and other investor conference calls or events. In some cases, we may post the presentation materials for other investor conference calls or events several days prior to the call or event. For earnings and other conference calls or events, we generally include in our posted materials a cautionary statement regarding forward-looking and non-GAAP financial information and we provide GAAP reconciliations when we include non-GAAP financial information. Such GAAP reconciliations may be in materials for the applicable presentation, in materials for prior presentations or in our annual, quarterly or current reports.
When warranted, we will also use our website to expedite public access to time-critical information regarding PNC instead of using a press release or a filing with the SEC for first disclosure of the information. In some circumstances, the information may be relevant to investors but directed at customers, in which case it may be accessed directly through the home page rather than “About Us – Investor Relations.”
We are required to provide additional public disclosure regarding estimated income, losses and pro forma regulatory capital ratios under supervisory and PNC-developed hypothetical severely adverse economic scenarios, as well as information concerning our capital stress testing processes, pursuant to the stress testing regulations adopted by the Federal Reserve and the OCC. We are also required to make certain additional regulatory capital-related public disclosures about our capital structure, risk exposures, risk assessment processes, risk-weighted assets and overall capital adequacy, including market risk-related disclosures, under the
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. – Form 10-Q 93
regulatory capital rules adopted by the Federal banking agencies. Similarly, the Federal Reserve’s rules require quantitative and qualitative disclosures about our LCR and NSFR. Under these regulations, we may satisfy these requirements through postings on our website, and we have done so and expect to continue to do so without also providing disclosure of this information through filings with the SEC.
Other information posted on our corporate website that may not be available in our filings with the SEC includes information relating to our corporate governance and annual communications from our chairman to shareholders.
Where we have included internet addresses in this Report, such as our internet address and the internet address of the SEC, we have included those internet addresses as inactive textual references only. Except as specifically incorporated by reference into this Report, information on those websites is not part hereof.

Dividend Policy
Holders of PNC common stock are entitled to receive dividends when declared by our Board of Directors out of funds legally available for this purpose. Our Board of Directors may not pay or set apart dividends on the common stock until dividends for all past dividend periods on any series of outstanding preferred stock and certain outstanding capital securities issued by the parent company
have been paid or declared and set apart for payment. The Board of Directors currently intends to continue the policy of paying quarterly cash dividends. The amount of any future dividends will depend on economic and market conditions, our financial condition and operating results, and other factors, including contractual restrictions and applicable government regulations and policies (such as those relating to the ability of bank and non-bank subsidiaries to pay dividends to the parent company and regulatory capital limitations). The amount of our dividend is also currently subject to the results of the supervisory assessment of capital adequacy and capital planning processes undertaken by the Federal Reserve as part of the CCAR process, which includes setting PNC’s SCB, as described in the Capital Management portion of the Risk Management section of this Financial Review and in the Supervision and Regulation section in Item 1 of our 2023 Form 10-K.
