Current report
Second Quarter 2026 Financial Performance
Current report
Noninterest income benefited from $252 million of pre-tax net gains, which contributed approximately $1.31 per diluted share (after-tax) and resulted in reported diluted EPS of $3.05. These gains included a $215 million gain from the sale of Visa Class B-1 shares and $37 million of net unrealized gains from Small Business Investment Company (“SBIC”) investments.
Current report
In the prior year quarter, noninterest income included $9 million of net unrealized gains from SBIC investments, which contributed approximately $0.05 per diluted share (after-tax) and resulted in reported diluted EPS of $1.63. These favorable items were partially offset by higher noninterest expense. The efficiency ratio remained stable at 62.2%, unchanged from the prior year quarter, and improved from 65.0% in the preceding quarter.
Current report
◦Average interest-bearing liabilities declined $2.1 billion, or 4%, compared with the prior year period. This decline was primarily attributable to a $2.7 billion reduction in average borrowed funds, largely reflecting lower short-term borrowings. The decrease was partially offset by an increase in average long-term debt, resulting from senior note issuances over the past year, as well as a $571 million increase in average interest-bearing deposits.
Current report
•Noncustomer-related noninterest income increased $252 million, primarily driven by the aforementioned notable gains.
Current report
•Total deposits increased $2.8 billion, or 4%, compared with the prior year quarter, primarily driven by a $2.0 billion increase in interest-bearing deposits, largely reflecting the impact of focused deposit growth initiatives. Customer deposits, excluding brokered deposits, totaled $72.7 billion, compared with $69.9 billion.
Current report
On July 31, 2026, we completed our previously disclosed acquisition of Basis Multifamily Finance I, LLC, the agency lending platform and subsidiary of Basis Investment Group. The acquisition includes the platform’s experienced team, capabilities, and associated mortgage servicing rights. This transaction expands our product suite through participation in the Fannie Mae DUS® program and the Freddie Mac Optigo® Conventional and Small Balance Loan programs, enhancing our ability to meet the financing needs of multifamily owners, operators, and developers nationwide, and further strengthens our commercial real estate and capital markets businesses.
Current report
Net interest income accounted for 60% of net revenue (defined as the sum of net interest income and noninterest income) in the second quarter of 2026, compared with 77% in the second quarter of 2025. The decline primarily reflects the impact of previously noted pre-tax net gains.
Current report
Yields on Interest-earning Assets
Current report
Average interest-bearing liabilities decreased $2.1 billion, or 4%, from the prior year quarter, reflecting lower average borrowed funds, partially offset by increases in average long-term debt and interest-bearing deposits.
Current report
Effective in the first quarter of 2026, we changed our accounting policy to present qualifying derivative assets and liabilities, along with the associated rights to reclaim or obligations to return cash collateral, on a net basis for all eligible arrangements rather than on a gross basis. The average balance of other short-term borrowings is presented net of derivative cash collateral received of $429 million and $327 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, while the related interest expense is recorded on a gross basis. As a result, the calculated yield on this line item increased by approximately 66 bps and 47 bps for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively. There was no impact on average balances from such netting for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025.
Current report
2 Derivative netting increased the calculated yield by approximately 66 bps for the three months ended June 30, 2026; there was no comparable impact in 2025. See discussion above for more information.
Current report
2 Derivative netting increased the calculated yield by approximately 47 bps for the six months ended June 30, 2026; there was no comparable impact in 2025. See discussion above for more information.
Current report
Noncustomer-related noninterest income increased $252 million, compared with the prior year period, primarily driven by a $215 million gain on the sale of Class B-1 shares of Visa, Inc., as well as $44 million in unrealized gains within the SBIC investment portfolio. In the prior year period, we recognized an $11 million unrealized gain related to the successful completion of the initial public offering of one of our SBIC investments.
Current report
Technology, telecom, and information processing expense increased $7 million, driven by higher application software, licensing, and maintenance costs. Credit-related expense rose $4 million, primarily due to increased loan-related legal costs, while occupancy and equipment expense increased $4 million, mainly reflecting higher rental and building maintenance costs. Other noninterest expense increased $2 million, largely due to a higher success fee accrual associated with SBIC investments and higher legal reserves in the prior year quarter, partially offset by reductions in other miscellaneous expenses.
Current report
These increases were partially offset by a $13 million decline in deposit insurance and regulatory expense, driven by a $6 million decrease from an updated estimate of the FDIC special assessment, as well as higher FDIC assessment costs in the prior year quarter associated with the level of classified loans.
Current report
Total deposits increased $1.0 billion, or 1%, from December 31, 2025, reflecting growth in both interest-bearing and noninterest-bearing deposits. Growth in interest-bearing deposits was driven by focused deposit-gathering initiatives, while noninterest-bearing demand deposits increased due to continued growth in more granular depositor balances.
Current report
NDFI loan balances increased during the first six months of 2026, primarily due to a second-quarter reclassification of approximately $366 million of commercial loans to the NDFI category based on industry and purpose.
Current report
Subsequent to quarter-end, on July 31, 2026, we completed our previously disclosed acquisition of Basis Multifamily Finance I, LLC, including its team, capabilities, and related mortgage servicing rights. The acquisition expands our multifamily lending capabilities and strengthens our commercial real estate and capital markets businesses. For more information, see “Executive Summary” and the Subsequent Events section in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Current report
Total shareholders’ equity increased $501 million, or 7%, to $7.7 billion at June 30, 2026, compared with $7.2 billion at December 31, 2025. The increase reflected a $124 million decline in common stock and additional paid-in capital, primarily due to common share repurchases.
Current report
1 Excluding $252 million of pre-tax net gains ($199 million after tax), return on average common equity and return on average tangible common equity for the three months ended June 30, 2026 would have been approximately 14.0%, and 16.6%, respectively.
Current report
1 Excluding $252 million of pre-tax net gains ($199 million after tax), return on average tangible common equity for the three months ended June 30, 2026 would have been approximately 16.6%.
Current report
1 Excluding the $15 million charitable contribution, adjusted noninterest expense for the year ended December 31, 2025 would have been $2.11 billion, resulting in an efficiency ratio of 62.2%.

First Quarter 2026 Financial Performance
Previous report
◦Average interest-bearing liabilities declined $2.7 billion, or 5%, largely due to decreases in average interest-bearing deposits and average borrowed funds, partially offset by an increase in average long-term debt, driven by recent issuances of senior notes.
Previous report
•Noncustomer-related noninterest income increased $2 million, or 15%, mainly due to valuation adjustments on servicing rights and gains on the sale of fixed assets, partially offset by lower securities gains.
Previous report
•Total deposits increased $1.2 billion, or 2%. Noninterest-bearing demand deposits increased primarily reflecting the migration of a consumer interest-bearing product into a new noninterest-bearing offering. This increase was partially offset by a decline in interest-bearing deposits, largely driven by a reduction in brokered deposits. Customer deposits, excluding brokered deposits, totaled $73.1 billion, compared with $70.9 billion.
Previous report
During the first quarter of 2026, we entered into an agreement to acquire the agency lending business of Basis Multifamily Finance I, LLC, a subsidiary of Basis Investment Group, subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals. This acquisition will expand our ability to deliver permanent financing solutions to multifamily housing clients through our enhanced capabilities as an originator, underwriter, and servicer of government-sponsored agency loans, including the Fannie Mae DUS® program and the Freddie Mac Optigo® Conventional and Small Balance Loan programs. The transaction is expected to strengthen our capital markets franchise and further enhance our ability to serve commercial real estate clients across the Western United States and other key markets.
Previous report
Net interest income accounted for 78% of our net revenue (the sum of net interest income and noninterest income) in both the first quarters of 2026 and 2025. It increased $38 million, or 6%, during the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared with the same prior year period. This increase was further supported by an improved mix of average interest-earning assets, driven by growth in higher-yielding loans and a reduction in lower-yielding investment securities and money market investments. As a result, the net interest margin increased to 3.27%, compared with 3.10%.
Previous report
Average interest-bearing liabilities decreased $2.7 billion, or 5%, from the prior year quarter, as declines in average interest-bearing deposits and average borrowed funds were partially offset by an increase in average long-term debt.

Previous report
Our municipal loans and securities are primarily concentrated within our geographic footprint.

Previous wording
Our financial performance in the first quarter of 2026 demonstrated strong year-over-year growth in net earnings applicable to common shareholders, diluted earnings per share (“EPS”), and adjusted pre-provision net revenue (“PPNR”). Diluted EPS increased to $1.56 from $1.13 in the first quarter of 2025, driven by higher net interest income and noninterest income, along with a lower provision for credit losses. These favorable factors were partially offset by higher noninterest expense. The efficiency ratio improved to 65.0% from 66.6% in the prior year quarter, reflecting positive operating leverage. The efficiency ratio was 62.3% in the prior quarter, primarily due to higher seasonal compensation costs.
Current wording
Our financial performance in the second quarter of 2026 reflected meaningful year-over-year improvement in net earnings applicable to common shareholders, diluted earnings per share (“EPS”), and adjusted pre-provision net revenue (“PPNR”). Diluted EPS increased to $3.05 from $1.63 in the second quarter of 2025, primarily driven by continued growth in noninterest income, including two notable gains, as well as higher net interest income.

Current wording
•Customer-related noninterest income increased $18 million, or 11%, reflecting broad-based growth across multiple revenue streams. This increase was largely due to higher capital markets fees and income, as well as growth in loan-related fees and income and commercial account fees.
Previous wording
•Noninterest expense increased $24 million, or 4%, primarily due to higher incentive compensation accruals reflecting improved profitability, as well as increased base salaries and employee benefits costs. Additional increases in professional and legal services and in technology, telecom, and information processing expenses were partially offset by a decline in deposit insurance and regulatory expense.
Current wording
•Noninterest expense increased $24 million, or 5%, primarily due to higher professional and legal services expense, increased salary and employee benefit costs reflecting higher incentive compensation, and increased technology, telecom, and information processing expenses. Additional increases in credit-related and occupancy and equipment costs were partially offset by a decline in deposit insurance and regulatory expense, reflecting a lower Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) special assessment estimate and higher prior-year costs.
Previous wording
•Total loans and leases increased $1.4 billion, or 2%, primarily driven by growth in the commercial and industrial loan portfolio and the consumer home equity credit line (“HECL”) portfolio.

Current wording
•Total borrowed funds decreased $3.6 billion, or 53%, compared with the prior year quarter, primarily reflecting a $4.6 billion reduction in short-term borrowings, driven by a decrease in short-term Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) advances. This decline was partially offset by increases in federal funds purchased, security repurchase agreements, and $1.0 billion of senior notes issued over the past year.
Previous wording
1 Includes interest income recoveries of $1 million and $4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, and 2025, respectively.
Current wording

Previous wording
•Net interest income increased $38 million, or 6%, compared with the prior year period, largely reflecting lower funding costs. This increase was further supported by an improved mix of average interest-earning assets, driven by growth in higher-yielding loans and a reduction in lower-yielding investment securities and money market investments. As a result, the net interest margin increased to 3.27%, up from 3.10%. The net interest margin declined from 3.31% in the prior quarter, mainly due to lower earning asset yields and a decrease in average demand deposits.
Current wording
Net interest income increased $29 million, or 4%, compared with the prior year period, primarily driven by lower funding costs. This growth was further supported by an improved mix of average interest-earning assets, reflecting growth in higher-yielding loans and a reduction in lower-yielding investment securities. As a result, the net interest margin increased to 3.27%, up from 3.17% in the prior year period, and was unchanged from the previous quarter.
Previous wording
The yield on average interest-earning assets, net of hedging activity, declined 18 basis points (“bps”) in the first quarter of 2026, compared with the prior year period, reflecting lower interest rates. The net yield on average loans and leases decreased 22 bps, while the net yield on average investment securities declined 12 bps. Additionally, the yield on average money market investments decreased 72 bps, as the short-term nature of these assets resulted in quicker repricing in the declining interest rate environment.
Current wording
The yield on average interest-earning assets, net of hedging activity, declined 21 basis points (“bps”) in the second quarter of 2026, compared with the prior year period, reflecting the impact of lower interest rates. The net yield on average loans and leases decreased 25 bps, while the net yield on average investment securities declined 12 bps. Additionally, the yield on average money market investments decreased 65 bps, as the short-term nature of these assets resulted in quicker repricing in the declining interest rate environment.
Previous wording
Yields on Interest-earning Assets and Rates Paid on Interest-bearing Liabilities
Current wording
Rates Paid on Interest-bearing Liabilities
Previous wording
The total cost of deposits decreased 28 bps, and the rate paid on total deposits and interest-bearing liabilities decreased 33 bps during the first quarter of 2026, compared with the prior year period, reflecting the lower interest rate environment. The rates paid on interest-bearing deposits and total borrowed funds decreased 35 bps and 26 bps, respectively.
Current wording
The total cost of deposits declined 20 bps, while the average rate paid on total deposits and interest-bearing liabilities decreased 28 bps during the second quarter of 2026, compared with the prior year period, reflecting the lower interest rate environment. Rates paid on interest-bearing deposits declined 27 bps, while rates paid on total borrowed funds increased 13 bps.
Previous wording
◦Average interest-earning assets increased $399 million, or less than 1%, primarily due to an increase in average loans and leases. This increase was partially offset by declines in average investment securities and average money market investments.
Current wording
Average interest-earning assets increased $788 million, or 1%, compared with the prior year period. This was driven by a $1.4 billion increase in average loans and leases, partially offset by a $708 million decline in average investment securities.
Previous wording
Average loans and leases increased $1.5 billion, or 3%, to $61.1 billion, primarily due to growth in average commercial and consumer loans.
Current wording
Average loans and leases increased $1.4 billion, or 2%, to $61.9 billion, primarily due to growth in average commercial loans.
Previous wording
Average investment securities decreased $666 million, or 4%, to $18.0 billion, largely due to principal reductions, net of reinvestments. The continued paydown of lower-yielding securities—consistent with the portfolio runoff that began in 2023—has improved the overall asset mix and contributed to a higher net interest margin.
Current wording
Average investment securities decreased $708 million, or 4%, to $17.7 billion, primarily due to principal reductions, net of reinvestments. The ongoing runoff of lower-yielding securities improved the earning asset mix and was a meaningful contributor to year-over-year net interest margin expansion.
Previous wording
Average deposits increased $540 million, or 1%, to $75.5 billion. Average noninterest-bearing deposits increased $2.0 billion, or 8%, primarily reflecting the migration of a consumer interest-bearing product into a new noninterest-bearing offering. As a result, noninterest-bearing deposits accounted for 35% of total deposits during the quarter, compared with 32% in the same prior year period. This increase was partially offset by a $1.4 billion, or 3%, decline in average interest-bearing deposits, largely driven by lower brokered deposits and the aforementioned product migration.
Current wording
Average deposits increased $2.0 billion, or 3%, to $76.2 billion. Average noninterest-bearing deposits grew $1.4 billion, or 6%, primarily reflecting the migration of a consumer interest-bearing product into a new noninterest-bearing offering. As a result, noninterest-bearing deposits represented 34% of total deposits during the quarter, compared with 33% in the same prior year period. Average interest-bearing deposits increased $571 million, or 1%, largely driven by focused deposit growth initiatives.
Previous wording
Average borrowed funds decreased $1.3 billion, or 19%, to $5.4 billion. This decline was primarily driven by a $2.1 billion, or 36%, reduction in average short-term borrowings, partially offset by a $798 million, or 84%, increase in average long-term debt. The increase in long-term debt reflected the issuance of $500 million of 4.48% Fixed-to-Floating Senior Notes in February 2026 and $500 million of 4.70% Fixed-to-Floating Senior Notes in August 2025.
Current wording
Average borrowed funds decreased $2.7 billion, or 35%, to $5.1 billion, primarily due to a $3.7 billion, or 54%, reduction in average short-term borrowings. This decrease was partially offset by a $991 million, or 103%, increase in average long-term debt, reflecting the issuance of $500 million of 4.48% Fixed-to-Floating Senior Notes in February 2026 and $500 million of 4.70% Fixed-to-Floating Senior Notes in August 2025.
Previous wording
The ACL was $713 million at March 31, 2026, compared with $743 million at March 31, 2025. The year-over-year decrease in the ACL primarily reflects lower reserves associated with CRE portfolio-specific risks and changes in loan portfolio composition, partially offset by more adverse economic forecasts and increased lending activity. The ratio of ACL to total loans and leases was 1.16% at March 31, 2026, compared with 1.24% at March 31, 2025.
Current wording
The ACL was $707 million at June 30, 2026, compared with $732 million at June 30, 2025. The year-over-year decrease in the ACL primarily reflects changes in loan portfolio composition and lower reserves associated with commercial real estate (“CRE”) portfolio-specific risks, partially offset by more adverse economic forecasts and increased lending activity. The ratio of ACL to total loans and leases was 1.13% at June 30, 2026, compared with 1.20% at June 30, 2025.
Previous wording
Our ACL estimate is derived using econometric loss models that incorporate multiple economic scenarios, including optimistic, baseline, and stressed conditions. These scenarios are weighted to determine the overall credit loss estimate, and management may adjust the weightings based on its assessment of current economic conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The schedule above summarizes the key drivers of the year-over-year change in the ACL, reflecting the combined effect of economic forecasts, credit quality trends and portfolio-specific risks, and portfolio composition.

Previous wording
The second bar reflects the impact of changes in economic forecasts and current economic conditions, incorporating management’s judgment in determining the scenario weightings for the current period. These changes resulted in a $91 million increase in the ACL compared with the prior year, primarily driven by the increased weighting assigned to more adverse economic scenarios.
Current wording
The second bar reflects the impact of changes in economic forecasts and current economic conditions, incorporating management’s judgment in determining the scenario weightings for the current period. These changes resulted in a $30 million increase in the ACL compared with the prior year, primarily driven by the increased weighting assigned to more adverse economic scenarios.
Previous wording
The third bar captures changes in credit quality factors, including risk grade migration, portfolio-specific risks, and specific reserves on loans. Collectively, these factors contributed to a $59 million decrease in the ACL, largely driven by reduced CRE portfolio-specific risks.
Current wording
The third bar captures changes in credit quality factors, including risk grade migration, portfolio-specific risks, and specific reserves on loans. Collectively, these factors contributed to a $20 million decrease in the ACL, largely driven by reduced CRE portfolio-specific risks.
Previous wording
The fourth bar represents the effect of changes in the composition of the loan portfolio, including shifts in loan balances and mix, the aging of the portfolio, and other qualitative risk factors. These changes resulted in a $62 million decrease in the ACL, primarily driven by changes in the loan portfolio mix, partially offset by $1.4 billion in period-end loan growth.
Current wording
The fourth bar represents the effect of changes in the composition of the loan portfolio, including shifts in loan balances and mix, the aging of the portfolio, and other qualitative risk factors. These changes resulted in a $35 million decrease in the ACL, largely driven by changes in the loan portfolio mix, partially offset by $1.7 billion in period-end loan growth.
Previous wording
The provision for credit losses, which includes both the provision for loan and lease losses and the provision for unfunded lending commitments, was negative $7 million in the first quarter of 2026, compared with positive $18 million in the first quarter of 2025. The provision for securities losses was less than $1 million during both the first quarters of 2026 and 2025.
Current wording
The provision for credit losses, which includes both the provision for loan and lease losses and the provision for unfunded lending commitments, was $3 million in the second quarter of 2026, compared with negative $1 million in the second quarter of 2025. The provision for securities losses was less than $1 million during both the second quarters of 2026 and 2025.
Previous wording
Noninterest income accounted for 22% of total net revenue (the sum of net interest income and noninterest income) in both the first quarters of 2026 and 2025. In the first quarter of 2026, noninterest income increased $16 million, or 9%, relative to the same prior year period.
Current wording
Noninterest income accounted for 40% of total net revenue (defined as the sum of net interest income and noninterest income) in the second quarter of 2026, compared with 23% in the second quarter of 2025. Noninterest income increased $270 million, or 142%, from the prior year period, primarily driven by the previously discussed pre-tax net gains.
Previous wording
Customer-related noninterest income increased $14 million, or 9%, compared with the prior year period, reflecting broad-based growth across multiple revenue streams. The increase was primarily driven by a $6 million increase in loan-related fees and income, largely attributable to higher residential mortgage loan sales activity. Retail and business banking fees increased $3 million, primarily due to an increase in overdraft fee income, while commercial account fees increased $3 million, mainly driven by higher account analysis fees.
Current wording
Customer-related noninterest income increased $18 million, or 11%, compared with the prior year period, reflecting broad-based growth across nearly all revenue streams. Capital markets fees and income increased $8 million, largely attributable to higher real estate capital markets activity and increased investment banking advisory fees. Loan-related fees and income increased $3 million, supported by higher residential mortgage loan sales activity, while the $3 million increase in commercial account fees was mainly due to growth in account analysis fees.
Previous wording
Noninterest expense increased $24 million, or 4%, compared with the prior year quarter. Salaries and employee benefits expense increased $19 million, primarily due to higher incentive compensation accruals reflecting improved profitability, as well as increased base salaries and employee benefits costs. Professional and legal services expense increased $7 million, largely reflecting higher outsourced services. Technology, telecom, and information processing expense increased $4 million, mainly due to higher application software, licensing, and maintenance costs. These increases were partially offset by a $7 million decrease in deposit insurance and regulatory expense, primarily due to higher Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) assessments related to increased classified loans in the prior year quarter.
Current wording
Noninterest expense increased $24 million, or 5%, compared with the prior year quarter. Professional and legal services expense increased $9 million, primarily reflecting higher outsourced services and technology consulting costs. Salaries and employee benefits expense increased $8 million, largely due to higher incentive compensation accruals aligned with improved profitability, as well as increased employee benefits costs.
Previous wording
Adjusted noninterest expense increased $25 million, or 5%, primarily due to the same factors previously discussed. The efficiency ratio improved to 65.0% from 66.6% in the prior year quarter, as adjusted taxable-equivalent revenue rose 7.4% and adjusted operating expenses increased 4.7%, resulting in positive operating leverage of 2.7%. For more information regarding non-GAAP financial measures, see page 37.
Current wording
Adjusted noninterest expense increased $25 million, or 5%, primarily due to the same factors discussed above. The efficiency ratio remained stable at 62.2%, consistent with the prior year quarter, and improved from 65.0% in the preceding quarter. For more information regarding non-GAAP financial measures, see page 39.
Previous wording
Total technology spend increased $12 million, or 10%, compared with the same prior year quarter. The increase was primarily due to higher technology-related expense, driven by increased professional and outsourced services, as well as higher technology, telecom, and information processing expense, largely reflecting previously noted increases in application software, licensing, and maintenance costs. In addition, technology spend increased due to higher capitalized technology investments supporting ongoing lending and customer-focused technology initiatives.
Current wording
Total technology spend increased $6 million, or 5%, compared with the prior year quarter. The increase was primarily due to higher technology, telecom, and information processing expenses, reflecting previously noted increases in application software, licensing, and maintenance costs, as well as higher technology-related expense associated with expanded professional and outsourced technology services. These increases were partially offset by a decline in capitalized technology investments, primarily due to higher investment levels in the prior year.
Previous wording
The effective tax rate was 20.7% and 28.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The year-over-year decrease was primarily attributable to new Utah state tax legislation enacted in the first quarter of 2025 related to our investment securities and trading assets, which required a revaluation of our net deferred tax asset (“DTA”)and resulted in additional tax expense in the prior year quarter.
Current wording
The effective tax rate was 22.3% and 21.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and 21.8% and 24.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The year-over-year decrease in the six-month rate was primarily due to Utah tax legislation enacted in the first quarter of 2025, which required remeasurement of the net deferred tax asset (“DTA”) and resulted in additional tax expense in the prior year period.
Previous wording
Investment securities are classified as either available-for-sale (“AFS”) or held-to-maturity (“HTM”), and are primarily used to provide balance sheet liquidity. The portfolio largely consists of securities that can be readily converted to cash or used to generate liquidity through secured borrowing agreements, without the need to sell the securities. Our investment securities portfolio also helps to balance the inherent interest rate mismatch between loans and deposits, thereby helping to preserve the economic value of shareholders’ equity. The estimated deposit duration at March 31, 2026 was assumed to be longer than the loan duration (including swaps). At March 31, 2026, the estimated duration of the investment securities portfolio, which measures price sensitivity to interest rate changes, was 3.7 years, compared with 3.8 years at December 31, 2025, primarily due to revised prepayment assumptions on certain securities.

The duration, which measures price sensitivity to changes in interest rates, declined modestly during the period, primarily reflecting the natural aging of the portfolio.
Previous wording
The amortized cost of total investment securities decreased $149 million, or 1%, from December 31, 2025, primarily due to principal reductions, net of reinvestments. At both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, approximately 6% of the portfolio consisted of floating-rate instruments. At March 31, 2026, we maintained active pay-fixed interest rate swaps with an aggregate notional amount of $4.6 billion that are designated as fair value hedges of fixed-rate AFS securities and effectively convert the fixed interest income on the hedged portion of the securities to a floating rate.
