Northern Trust Corp
Investor Relations

Northern Trust is a financial services company that helps wealthy individuals, families, institutions, and pension funds manage money and handle complex investment administration. It provides wealth management, trust and estate services, banking, and institutional asset servicing for clients who need careful recordkeeping and long-term stewardship of assets. The company makes money mainly from fees for managing assets, administering funds, custody and fund accounting, and from banking and lending services tied to its client relationships. Its customers are people and organizations that need a trusted firm to hold assets, process transactions, calculate performance, report on holdings, and support investment operations. What sets Northern Trust apart is that it sits behind the scenes in the investment system: it is not trying to sell products to mass consumers, but to serve clients who need secure custody, specialized administration, and disciplined wealth oversight. That gives it a mix of fee-based businesses and relationship banking, with recurring income built around long-term client assets and ongoing service needs.

AI Summary
Q2 2026

Results: Northern Trust reported strong second quarter results, helped by a $525 million pretax gain from the Visa exchange offer and solid underlying growth across fees, NII and capital markets.

Growth: Excluding notable items, EPS rose 40% year over year, revenue rose 13%, and the company delivered over 700 basis points of operating leverage.

Outlook: Management raised full-year guidance for net interest income and total revenue, and now expects about 400 basis points of operating leverage for the year.

Wealth: Wealth management posted another solid quarter with trust fees up 10% and AUM up 14% year over year, though management said quarterly fee swings can be distorted by lags, taxes and alternative valuations.

Capital: The company returned $499 million to shareholders, raised the quarterly dividend by 10%, and said the Visa gain gives it flexibility to invest, buy back stock, or pursue inorganic opportunities.
