First Citizens BancShares Inc (Delaware)
Investor Relations

First Citizens BancShares is a bank holding company that runs First-Citizens Bank and Trust and related financial businesses. It takes in deposits, makes loans, and offers everyday banking products such as checking and savings accounts, business banking, mortgages, equipment loans, and other credit services. Its main customers are consumers, small and mid-sized businesses, and commercial borrowers that need a lender with local service and a broad set of banking products. The company makes most of its money from the spread between what it earns on loans and investments and what it pays out on deposits, along with fees from banking services. It also earns income from treasury management, wealth-related services, and other client banking activities. Like other banks, it depends on trust, underwriting discipline, and deposit relationships rather than on selling a physical product. What makes First Citizens different is its role as a relationship-focused regional bank with a mix of personal, business, and specialty lending. It serves customers who want a bank that can handle both day-to-day accounts and larger credit needs, including commercial finance and other niche lending areas. That gives it a place in the banking system as both a traditional deposit bank and a lender for more specialized financing needs.

AI Summary
Q1 2026

Results: First Citizens reported adjusted EPS of $44.86 and net income of $560 million. Lower rates pressured net interest income, but strong deposit growth, lower expenses, and solid credit performance helped offset some of the impact.

Deposits: Period-end deposits grew 5.7% sequentially, led by Tech & Healthcare, Global Fund Banking, the General Bank, and the Direct Bank. Management also used $1.8 billion of broker deposits to support funding and reduce pressure on margins.

Capital: The company returned $900 million to shareholders in the quarter and said it has repurchased over 20% of common shares outstanding since its 2025 plan began. It also lowered its CET1 target range to 10% to 10.5%.

Outlook: Full-year guidance was only modestly changed overall, but noninterest income was raised and net charge-off guidance was lowered. At the same time, management said repurchase pace should slow as it approaches the new capital target.

Credit: Credit quality remained manageable, though nonaccrual loans ticked up. Management said the increase was isolated to a few credits and not a sign of broader stress, while also giving more detail on the private credit and software exposures.

Strategy: The bank announced a broader commercial solutions push, including expansion in payments, international banking, and digital assets, plus a united brand structure planned for the fourth quarter.
