Q - FIFTH THIRD BANCORP

Credit risk management utilizes a framework that encompasses consistent processes for identifying, assessing, managing, monitoring and reporting credit risk. These processes are supported by a credit risk governance structure that includes Board oversight, policies, risk limits and risk committees.

The objective of the Bancorp’s credit risk management strategy is to quantify and manage credit risk on an aggregate portfolio basis, as well as to limit the risk of loss resulting from the failure of a borrower or counterparty to honor its financial or contractual obligations to the Bancorp. The Bancorp’s credit risk management strategy is based on three core principles: conservatism, diversification and monitoring. The Bancorp believes that effective credit risk management begins with conservative lending practices which are described below. These practices include the use of intentional risk-based limits for single name exposures and counterparty selection criteria designed to reduce or eliminate exposure to borrowers who have higher than average default risk and defined weaknesses in financial performance. The Bancorp carefully designs and monitors underwriting, documentation and collection standards. The Bancorp’s credit risk management strategy also emphasizes diversification on a geographic, industry, product and customer level as well as ongoing portfolio monitoring and timely management reviews of large credit exposures and credits experiencing deterioration of credit quality. Credit officers with the authority to extend credit are delegated specific authority based on risk and exposure amount, the use of which is closely monitored. Underwriting activities are centrally managed, and Credit Risk Management manages the policy and the authority delegation process directly. The Credit Risk Review function provides independent and objective assessments of the quality of underwriting and documentation, the accuracy of risk ratings and the charge-off, nonaccrual and reserve analysis process. The Bancorp’s credit review process and overall assessment of the adequacy of the ACL is based on quarterly assessments of the estimated losses expected in the loan and lease portfolio. The Bancorp uses these assessments to maintain an adequate ACL and record any necessary charge-offs. Certain loans and leases with probable or observed credit weaknesses receive enhanced monitoring and undergo a periodic review. Refer to Note 6 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Bancorp’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 for further information on the Bancorp’s credit rating categories, which are derived from standard regulatory rating definitions. In addition, stress testing is performed on various commercial and consumer portfolios utilizing various models. For certain portfolios, such as real estate and leveraged lending, stress testing is performed at the individual loan level during credit underwriting.

In addition to the individual review of larger commercial loans that exhibit probable or observed credit weaknesses, the commercial credit review process includes the use of two risk rating systems. The first of these risk rating systems is based on regulatory guidance for credit risk rating systems. These ratings are used by the Bancorp to monitor and manage its credit risk. The Bancorp also separately maintains a dual risk rating system for credit approval and pricing, portfolio monitoring and capital allocation that includes a “through-the-cycle” rating philosophy for assessing a borrower’s creditworthiness. This “through-the-cycle” rating philosophy uses a grading scale that assigns ratings based on average default rates through an entire business cycle for borrowers with similar financial performance. The dual risk rating system includes thirteen categories for estimating probabilities of default and an additional eleven categories for estimating losses given an event of default. The probability of default and loss given default evaluations are not separated in the regulatory risk rating system.

The Bancorp utilizes internally developed models to estimate expected credit losses for portfolio loans and leases. For loans and leases that are collectively evaluated, the Bancorp utilizes these models to forecast expected credit losses over a reasonable and supportable forecast period based on the probability of a loan or lease defaulting, the expected balance at the estimated date of default and the expected loss percentage given a default. Refer to Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Bancorp’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 for additional information about the Bancorp’s processes for developing these models, for estimating credit losses for periods beyond the reasonable and supportable forecast period and for estimating credit losses for individually evaluated loans.

For the commercial portfolio segment, the estimated probabilities of default are primarily based on the probability of default ratings assigned under the dual risk rating system and historical observations of how those ratings migrate to a default over time in the context of macroeconomic conditions. For loans with available credit, the estimate of the expected balance at the time of default considers expected utilization rates, which are primarily based on macroeconomic conditions and the utilization history of similar borrowers under those economic conditions. The estimates for loss severity are primarily based on collateral type and coverage levels and the susceptibility of those characteristics to changes in macroeconomic conditions.

For collectively evaluated loans in the consumer and residential mortgage portfolio segments, the Bancorp’s expected credit loss models primarily utilize the borrower’s FICO score and delinquency history in combination with macroeconomic conditions when estimating the

probability of default. The estimates for loss severity are primarily based on collateral type and coverage levels and the susceptibility of those characteristics to changes in macroeconomic conditions. The expected balance at the estimated date of default is also especially impactful in the expected credit loss models for portfolio classes which generally have longer terms (such as residential mortgage loans and home equity) and portfolio classes containing a high concentration of loans with revolving privileges (such as home equity). The estimate of the expected balance at the time of default considers expected prepayment and utilization rates where applicable, which are primarily based on macroeconomic conditions and the utilization history of similar borrowers under those economic conditions. The Bancorp also utilizes various scoring systems, analytical tools and portfolio performance monitoring processes to assess the credit risk of the consumer and residential mortgage portfolios.

Commercial Portfolio

The Bancorp’s credit risk management strategy seeks to minimize concentrations of risk through diversification. The Bancorp has commercial loan concentration limits based on industry, lines of business within the commercial segment, geography and credit product type. The risk within the commercial loan and lease portfolio is managed and monitored through an underwriting process utilizing detailed origination policies, continuous loan level reviews, monitoring of industry concentration and product type limits and continuous portfolio risk management reporting.

The Bancorp is closely monitoring various economic factors and their impacts on commercial borrowers, including, but not limited to, the impact of escalating global tensions, the impact of policy changes of the new political administration, particularly trade policy, as well as inflation, interest rate changes, labor and supply chain issues, and volatility and changes in consumer discretionary spending patterns, including debt and default levels. The Bancorp maintains focus on disciplined client selection, adherence to underwriting policy and attention to concentrations.

The Bancorp provides loans to a variety of customers ranging from large multinational firms to middle market businesses, sole proprietors and high net worth individuals. The origination policies for commercial loans and leases outline the risks and underwriting requirements for individuals and businesses in various industries. Included in the policies are maturity and amortization terms, collateral and leverage requirements, cash flow coverage measures and hold limits. The Bancorp aligns credit and sales teams with specific industry and regional expertise to better monitor and manage different industry and geographic segments of the portfolio.

The following table provides detail on commercial loans and leases by industry classification (as defined by the North American Industry Classification System), by loan size and by state, illustrating the diversity and granularity of the Bancorp’s commercial loans and leases as of:

The origination policies for commercial real estate outline the risks and underwriting requirements for owner and nonowner-occupied and construction lending. Included in the policies are maturity and amortization terms, maximum LTVs, minimum debt service coverage ratios, construction loan monitoring procedures, appraisal requirements, pre-leasing requirements (as applicable), pro forma analysis requirements and interest rate sensitivity. The Bancorp requires a valuation of real estate collateral, which may include third-party appraisals, be performed at the time of origination and renewal in accordance with regulatory requirements and on an as-needed basis when market conditions justify. The Bancorp maintains an appraisal review department to order and review third-party appraisals in accordance with regulatory requirements.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)

Nonaccrual assets with relationships exceeding $1 million are reviewed quarterly to assess the appropriateness of the value ascribed in the assessment of charge-offs and specific reserves. Additionally, collateral values are also reviewed at least annually for all criticized assets.

The Bancorp assesses all real estate and non-real estate collateral securing a loan and considers all cross-collateralized loans in the calculation of the LTV ratio. The following tables provide detail on the most recent LTV ratios for commercial mortgage loans greater than $1 million, excluding commercial mortgage loans that are individually evaluated for an ACL and loans which do not have real estate as the primary collateral. The Bancorp does not typically aggregate the LTV ratios for commercial mortgage loans less than $1 million.

The Bancorp views nonowner-occupied commercial real estate as a higher credit risk product compared to some other commercial loan portfolios due to the higher volatility of the industry.

The following tables provide an analysis of nonowner-occupied commercial real estate loans, disaggregated by property location (excluding loans held for sale):

Net charge-offs on nonowner-occupied commercial real estate loans were immaterial for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.

Consumer Portfolio

The Bancorp’s consumer portfolio is materially comprised of six categories of loans: residential mortgage loans, home equity, indirect secured consumer loans, credit card, solar energy installation loans and other consumer loans. The Bancorp has identified certain credit characteristics within these six categories of loans which it believes represent a higher level of risk compared to the rest of the consumer loan portfolio. The Bancorp does not update LTVs for the consumer portfolio subsequent to origination except as part of the charge-off process for real estate secured loans. The Bancorp actively manages the consumer portfolio through concentration limits, which mitigate credit risk through limiting the exposure to lower FICO scores, higher LTVs, specific geographic concentration risks and additional risk elements.

The Bancorp continues to ensure that underwriting standards and guidelines adequately account for the broader economic conditions that the consumer portfolio faces in a high-rate environment and as rates begin to fall. Guidelines are designed to ensure that the various consumer products fall within the Bancorp’s risk appetite. These guidelines are monitored and adjusted as deemed appropriate in response to the prevailing economic conditions while remaining within the Bancorp’s risk appetite limits.

The payment structures for certain variable-rate products (such as residential mortgage loans, home equity and credit card) are susceptible to changes in benchmark interest rates. Increases in interest rates cause minimum payments on these products to increase, raising the potential for the environment to be disruptive to some borrowers. Potential future decreases in interest rates may lessen these risks moving forward. The impacts of these rate changes will take time to manifest and their significance will be dependent on the size and number of current and future rate cuts, as well as other economic factors impacting each customer. The Bancorp actively monitors the portion of its consumer portfolio that is susceptible to changes in minimum payments and continues to assess the impact on the overall risk appetite and soundness of the portfolio.

Residential mortgage portfolio

The Bancorp manages credit risk in the residential mortgage portfolio through underwriting guidelines that limit exposure to loan characteristics determined to increase credit risk. Additionally, the portfolio is governed by concentration limits that ensure product and channel diversification. The Bancorp may also package and sell loans in the portfolio.

The Bancorp does not originate residential mortgage loans that permit customers to make payments that are less than the accruing interest. The Bancorp originates both fixed-rate and ARM loans. Within the ARM portfolio, approximately $441 million of ARM loans will have rate resets during the next twelve months. Underlying characteristics of these borrowers include a weighted-average origination debt-to-income ratio of 35% and weighted-average origination LTV of 72%. Approximately 28% of these loans are expected to experience an increase in rate upon reset. For those borrowers, rates are expected to increase by an average of approximately 2.6%, resulting in an average increase in monthly payment amount of approximately 34%.

Certain residential mortgage products have characteristics that may increase the Bancorp’s credit loss rates in the event of a decline in housing values. These types of mortgage products offered by the Bancorp include loans with high LTVs, multiple loans secured by the same collateral that when combined result in an LTV greater than 80% and interest-only loans. The Bancorp has deemed residential mortgage loans with greater than 80% LTVs and no mortgage insurance as loans that represent a higher level of risk. Approximately 70% of these loans consist of loans originated through the Bancorp’s loan program for doctors.

Net charge-offs on residential mortgage loans with an LTV greater than 80% at origination and no mortgage insurance were immaterial for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.

Home equity portfolio

The Bancorp’s home equity portfolio of $4.5 billion is primarily comprised of home equity lines of credit. Beginning in the first quarter of 2013, the Bancorp’s newly originated home equity lines of credit have a 10-year interest-only draw period followed by a 20-year amortization period. The home equity line of credit previously offered by the Bancorp was a revolving facility with a 20-year term, minimum payments of interest-only and a balloon payment of principal at maturity. Approximately 17% of the outstanding balances of the Bancorp’s portfolio of home equity lines of credit have a balloon structure at maturity. Peak maturity years for the balloon home equity lines of credit are 2025 to 2028 and approximately $490 million of the balances mature before December 31, 2028.

Table of Contents

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)

The home equity portfolio is managed in two primary groups: loans outstanding with a combined LTV greater than 80% and those loans with an LTV of 80% or less, based upon appraisals at origination. For additional information on these loans, refer to Tables 37, 38 and 39. Of the total $4.5 billion of outstanding home equity loans:

•73% reside within the Bancorp’s Midwest footprint of Ohio, Michigan, Illinois, Indiana and Kentucky as of June 30, 2025;

•76% of non-delinquent borrowers made at least one payment greater than the minimum payment during the three months ended June 30, 2025; and

•The portfolio had a weighted-average refreshed FICO score of 749 at June 30, 2025.

The Bancorp actively manages lines of credit and makes adjustments in lending limits when it believes it is necessary based on FICO score deterioration and property devaluation. The Bancorp does not routinely obtain appraisals on performing loans to update LTVs after origination. However, the Bancorp monitors the local housing markets by reviewing various home price indices and incorporates the impact of the changing market conditions in its ongoing credit monitoring processes.

The following table provides an analysis of home equity portfolio loans outstanding disaggregated based upon refreshed FICO score as of:

The Bancorp believes that home equity portfolio loans with a greater than 80% LTV (including senior liens, if applicable) present a higher level of risk. The following table provides an analysis of the home equity portfolio loans outstanding in a senior and junior lien position by LTV at origination as of:

Net charge-offs on home equity loans with an LTV greater than 80% at origination were immaterial for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.

Indirect secured consumer portfolio

The indirect secured consumer portfolio is comprised of $14.6 billion of automobile loans and $3.0 billion of indirect recreational vehicle, marine, motorcycle and powersport loans as of June 30, 2025. All concentration and guideline changes are monitored monthly to ensure alignment with original credit performance and return projections.

The following table provides an analysis of indirect secured consumer portfolio loans outstanding disaggregated based upon FICO score at origination as of:

It is a common industry practice to advance on these types of loans an amount in excess of the collateral value due to the inclusion of negative equity trade-in, maintenance/warranty products, taxes, title and other fees paid at closing. The Bancorp monitors its exposure to these higher risk loans.

The following table provides an analysis of indirect secured consumer portfolio loans outstanding by LTV at origination as of:

At June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, $28 million and $24 million, respectively, of the Bancorp’s nonaccrual indirect secured consumer portfolio loans had an LTV greater than 100% at origination. Net charge-offs on indirect secured consumer loans with an LTV greater than 100% at origination were $5 million and $9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $14 million and $20 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Credit card portfolio

The credit card portfolio consists of predominantly prime accounts with 98% of balances existing within the Bancorp’s footprint at both June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. At both June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, 72% of the outstanding balances were originated through branch-based relationships with the remainder coming from direct mail campaigns and online acquisitions.

Given the variable nature of the credit card portfolio, interest rate increases impact this product and it is regularly monitored to ensure the portfolio remains within the Bancorp’s risk appetite. Recent rate cuts and potential future decreases in interest rates may lessen these risks moving forward.

Solar energy installation loans portfolio

The Bancorp originates point-of-sale solar energy installation loans through a network of approved installers. The Bancorp considers several factors when monitoring its solar energy installation loan portfolio, including concentrations by installer, concentrations by state and FICO distributions at origination. At both June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, loans originated through the Bancorp’s three largest approved installers represented approximately 23% of total balances outstanding in the solar energy installation loan portfolio.

Other consumer portfolio loans are comprised of secured and unsecured loans originated through the Bancorp’s branch network, point-of-sale home improvement loans originated through a network of contractors and installers, and other point-of-sale loans originated or purchased in connection with third-party companies. Loans originated in connection with one third-party point-of-sale company are impacted by certain credit loss protection coverage provided by that company. The Bancorp discontinued origination of new loans with this third-party company in September 2022.

The following table provides an analysis of other consumer portfolio loans outstanding by product type as of:

Analysis of Nonperforming Assets

Nonperforming assets include nonaccrual loans and leases for which ultimate collectability of the full amount of the principal and/or interest is uncertain and certain other assets, including OREO and other repossessed property. A summary of nonperforming assets is included in Table 46. For further information on the Bancorp’s policies related to accounting for delinquent and nonperforming loans and leases, refer to the Nonaccrual Loans and Leases section of Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Bancorp’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Nonperforming assets were $913 million at June 30, 2025 compared to $860 million at December 31, 2024. At June 30, 2025, $27 million of nonaccrual loans were held for sale, compared to $7 million at December 31, 2024.

Table of Contents

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)

Nonperforming portfolio assets as a percent of portfolio loans and leases and OREO were 0.72% and 0.71% at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. Nonaccrual loans and leases secured by real estate were 33% of nonaccrual loans and leases as of June 30, 2025 compared to 35% as of December 31, 2024.

Portfolio commercial nonaccrual loans and leases were $508 million at June 30, 2025, an increase of $52 million from December 31, 2024. Portfolio residential mortgage and consumer nonaccrual loans were $345 million at June 30, 2025, a decrease of $22 million from December 31, 2024. Refer to Table 47 for a rollforward of portfolio nonaccrual loans and leases.

OREO and other repossessed property was $33 million and $30 million at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The Bancorp recognized an immaterial amount of losses and $1 million of gains on the transfer, sale or write-down of OREO properties for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, compared to $1 million of losses for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2024.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, approximately $18 million and $38 million, respectively, of interest income would have been recognized if the nonaccrual portfolio loans and leases had been current in accordance with their contractual terms, compared to $18 million and $35 million for the same periods in the prior year. Although these values help demonstrate the costs of carrying nonaccrual credits, the Bancorp does not expect to recover the full amount of interest as nonaccrual loans and leases are generally carried below their principal balance.

(a)Includes $16 and $18 of nonaccrual government-insured commercial loans whose repayments are insured by the SBA as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

(b)Information for all periods presented excludes advances made pursuant to servicing agreements for GNMA mortgage pools whose repayments are insured by the FHA or guaranteed by the VA. These advances were $161 as of June 30, 2025 and $163 as of December 31, 2024. The Bancorp recognized losses of an immaterial amount for both the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 and $1 for both the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 due to claim denials and curtailments associated with these insured or guaranteed loans.

(c)Includes $19 and $12 of branch-related real estate no longer intended to be used for banking purposes as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

Analysis of Net Loan Charge-offs

Net charge-offs were 45 bps and 49 bps of average portfolio loans and leases for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and were 45 bps and 44 bps of average portfolio loans and leases for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Table 49 provides a summary of credit loss experience and net charge-offs as a percent of average portfolio loans and leases outstanding by loan category.

The ratio of commercial loan and lease net charge-offs as a percent of average portfolio commercial loans and leases decreased to 38 bps during the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to 45 bps during the same period in the prior year primarily due to a decrease in net charge-offs on commercial and industrial loans of $11 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The ratio of commercial loan and lease net charge-offs as a percent of average portfolio commercial loans and leases increased to 37 bps during the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to 32 bps during the same period in the prior year primarily due to increases in net charge-offs on commercial mortgage loans of $14 million and commercial and industrial loans of $6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

The ratio of consumer loan net charge-offs as a percent of average portfolio consumer loans decreased to 56 bps and 59 bps during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, compared to 57 bps and 62 bps during the same periods in the prior year as increases in net charge-offs on solar energy installation loans of $8 million and $14 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, were more than offset by increases in average consumer loan balances for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2025.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The allowance for credit losses is comprised of the ALLL and the reserve for unfunded commitments. The Bancorp maintains the ALLL to absorb the amount of credit losses that are expected to be incurred over the remaining contractual terms of the related loans and leases (as adjusted for prepayments). In addition to the ALLL, the Bancorp maintains a reserve for unfunded commitments recorded in other liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The provision for unfunded commitments is included in the provision for credit losses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

For more information about the Bancorp’s methodology for determining the ACL, refer to the Bancorp’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, including the Critical Accounting Policies section and Allowance for Credit Losses subsection of the Risk Management section of MD&A and Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

At both June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Bancorp used three forward-looking economic scenarios during the reasonable and supportable forecast period in its expected credit loss models to address the inherent imprecision in macroeconomic forecasting. Each of the three scenarios was developed by a third party that is subject to the Bancorp’s Third-Party Risk Management program including oversight by the Bancorp’s independent model risk management group. The scenarios included a most likely outcome (Baseline) and two less probable scenarios with one being more favorable than the Baseline and the other being less favorable. The more favorable alternative scenario (Upside) depicted a stronger near-term growth outlook while the less favorable outlook (Downside) depicted a moderate recession.

The Baseline scenario was developed such that the expectation is that the economy will perform better than the projection 50% of the time and worse than the projection 50% of the time. The Upside scenario was developed such that there is a 10% probability that the economy will perform better than the projection and a 90% probability that it will perform worse. The Downside scenario was developed such that there is a 90% probability that the economy will perform better than the projection and a 10% probability that it will perform worse.

June 30, 2025 ACL

The ACL as of June 30, 2025 increased $72 million from December 31, 2024, driven by deterioration in the economic forecasts used to calculate the ACL, an increase in specific reserves on individually evaluated commercial and industrial loans and higher period-end loan and lease balances. As of June 30, 2025, the Bancorp’s macroeconomic scenarios included estimates of the expected impacts of changes in economic conditions caused by forecasted interest rates and higher tariffs.

At June 30, 2025, the Bancorp assigned an 80% probability weighting to the Baseline scenario and 10% to each of the Upside and Downside scenarios. The Baseline scenario used in the June 30, 2025 ACL assumed that inflation rates peaked at around the same level, but at a later date when compared to the scenario used for the March 31, 2025 estimate. These changes reflect recent data and increased uncertainty that has arisen from changes in U.S. fiscal, tariff and immigration policies. This scenario assumed a peak rate of inflation of 3.7% in the second quarter of 2026, gradually returning to target in early 2027 and averaging 3.2% and 2.1% in 2026 and 2027, respectively. In response to fiscal tightening and high interest rates, this scenario also assumed that real GDP growth would be below trend in the near term but that the unemployment rate will remain steady. The Baseline scenario assumed an average annual real GDP growth rate of 1.5% for 2025, followed by 1.4% in 2026 and 1.8% in 2027. The Baseline scenario also assumed an average unemployment rate of 4.2% for 2025, followed by 4.7% for both 2026 and 2027. The Treasury rate environment is expected to be relatively stable with the 10-year yield remaining within a narrow projected range of 4.2% to 4.3% through 2027. Credit spreads are projected to expand from an average of 2.0% in 2025 and reach their peak level of 2.6% in late 2026. Lastly, the Baseline scenario assumed additional cuts to the target federal funds rate, with an average federal funds rate of 4.2% in 2025 that decreases to an average of 3.4% and 3.0% in 2026 and 2027, respectively.

The Upside scenario assumed that, on an average annual basis, the change in real GDP is 2.0% in 2025, 2.8% in 2026 and 2.2% in 2027. The Upside scenario also assumed an average unemployment rate of 3.9% in 2025, 3.7% in 2026 and 4.0% in 2027. In this scenario, 10-year Treasury yields are fairly stable, reaching a peak of 4.4% in the third quarter of 2026, while credit spreads are consistent with the Baseline scenario, peaking at 2.5% in mid-2026. In the Upside scenario, the forecast for federal funds rate cuts was generally consistent with the Baseline scenario.

The Downside scenario included significant worsening of economic conditions, causing the U.S. economy to fall into a recession in the third quarter of 2025. The Downside scenario assumed that real GDP declines from the second quarter of 2025 through the first quarter of 2026, with a cumulative decline of 2.6%, recovering to an average annualized GDP growth rate of 1.7% for the full year of 2027. The Downside scenario assumed an average unemployment rate of 5.4% in 2025, increasing to an average of 8.2% in 2026 and decreasing to an average of 7.5% in 2027. In this scenario, the 10-year Treasury yield increases to 4.8% in the fourth quarter of 2025, then drops to 3.5% by the end of 2026. Credit spreads also expand in this scenario, reaching a peak of 4.0% in the first quarter of 2026. In the Downside scenario, the forecast for the federal funds rate included steeper rate cuts than the Baseline scenario, with average target rates of 4.6% in 2025, followed by 2.8% and 1.0% in 2026 and 2027, respectively.

The Bancorp’s qualitative adjustments, as an overlay to the quantitative models, resulted in a net increase to the ACL as of June 30, 2025, however, these qualitative adjustments decreased from the qualitative factors used in the ACL as of March 31, 2025, primarily driven by a qualitative decrease in the ACL for the commercial portfolio segment. These qualitative adjustments primarily reflect the Bancorp’s

Table of Contents

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)

expectations that additional credit losses may be present in its portfolio loans and leases beyond what is predictable through the use of quantitative models. The qualitative adjustment for the commercial portfolio segment was primarily driven by additional allowances for certain nonowner-occupied commercial loans secured by real estate, particularly loans secured by office buildings, based on current challenges in the commercial real estate market that are not fully reflected in the Bancorp’s quantitative models. These challenges include, but are not limited to, an imbalance between supply and demand in the market for commercial real estate properties and pressures on borrowers and property valuations resulting from elevated interest rates. Specific to office properties, the Bancorp has also observed industry data indicating that the office sector of the commercial real estate market continues to lag behind others in terms of property values, driven in part by lessened demand as a result of the increased prevalence of remote work across many professions. These adjustments for certain nonowner-occupied commercial loans secured by real estate were partially offset in the second quarter of 2025 by a qualitative adjustment reducing the impact of economic factors associated with the commercial and industrial loan expected credit loss models.

The Bancorp’s quantitative credit loss models are sensitive to changes in economic forecast assumptions over the reasonable and supportable forecast period. Applying a 100% probability weighting to the Downside scenario rather than using the probability-weighted three scenario approach would result in an increase in the quantitative ACL of approximately $2.2 billion. This sensitivity calculation only reflects the impact of changing the probability weighting of the scenarios in the quantitative credit loss models and excludes any additional considerations associated with the qualitative component of the ACL that might be warranted if probability weights were adjusted.

The following table provides a rollforward of the Bancorp’s ACL:

(a)For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the Bancorp recorded $5 and $10, respectively, in both losses charged-off and recoveries of losses previously charged-off related to customer defaults on point-of-sale consumer loans for which the Bancorp obtained recoveries under third-party credit enhancements, compared to $7 and $15 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively.
