$7.29B. Gunjan Kedia, CEO, U.S. Bancorp: "In the first quarter, we delivered diluted earnings per share of
$1.18, up 15% year-over-year, and a return on tangible common equity of 17%. Strong revenue growth drove 440 basis points of positive operating leverage, as ongoing investments for growth and continued cost savings drove 260 basis points of year-over-year improvement in our efficiency ratio. Net interest income growth of 4.1% compared with the prior year was supported by robust loan growth in priority areas, including commercial and credit card, and record consumer deposits.
Fee revenue increased 6.9% year-over-year, reflecting improved payments performance and continued momentum across capital markets and investment services businesses. Credit quality and capital levels remain healthy and strong. These results demonstrate continued execution within our medium-term financial target ranges and strong momentum across the franchise. Recently announced partnerships with nationally recognized brands such as Amazon and the NFL reinforce the scale, relevance, and growth potential of our diversified business model. With disciplined risk management and consistent execution, we are positioned to deliver sustainable returns and long-term value. On behalf of my U.S. Bank colleagues, I thank our clients and shareholders for their continued trust and support."
