revenue and yields on a taxable-equivalent basis, calculated using the federal statutory tax rate of 21% and state taxes where applicable, with offsetting reductions to the Other category. Taxable-equivalent adjustments included in the interest income and yield computations for our commercial loans totaled approximately $80 million in 2025, $79 million in 2024 and $74 million in 2023, with corresponding reductions to the Other category.

(4)Interest income/expense in the Other category represents the impact of hedge accounting on our loan portfolios and the offsetting reduction of the taxable-equivalent adjustments of our commercial loans as described above.

(5)Includes amounts related to entities that provide capital to low-income and rural communities of $2.1 billion, $2.0 billion and $1.8 billion in 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Related interest expense was $31 million, $31 million and $32 million for 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Net interest income increased by $11.7 billion to $42.9 billion in 2025 compared to 2024 primarily driven by higher loan balances, including the impacts of the Transaction, and lower rates paid on deposits.

Net interest margin increased by 96 bps to 7.84% in 2025 compared to 2024 primarily driven by higher loan balances, including the impacts of the Transaction, and lower rates paid on deposits.

Our total company cumulative interest-bearing deposit beta increased to 23% as of December 31, 2025, from 11% as of December 31, 2024. We define cumulative deposit beta as the ratio of changes in the average rate paid on our average interest-bearing deposits to changes in the upper bound of the federal funds rate during the falling interest rate cycle.
