Review of business segments

We have an internal information system that produces performance data along product and service lines for our three principal business segments: Securities Services, Market and Wealth Services and Investment and Wealth Management, and the Other segment.

Business segment accounting principles

Our business segment data has been determined on an internal management basis of accounting, rather than the generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) used for consolidated financial reporting. These measurement principles are designed so that reported results of the businesses will track their economic performance.

Our business segments are consistent with the structure used by the Chief Executive Officer, our Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), to make key operating decisions and assess performance. Our CODM evaluates the business segments’ operating performance primarily based on fee and other revenue, total revenue, income before income taxes and pre-tax operating margin. The significant expense information regularly provided to and reviewed by the CODM is total noninterest expense. The CODM considers this information when evaluating the performance of each business segment and in making decisions about allocating capital and other resources to each business segment.

For information on the accounting principles of our business segments, see Note 16 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. For information on the primary products and services in each line of business, the primary types of revenue by line of business and how our business segments are presented and analyzed, see Note 23 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2025 Annual Report.

Business segment results are subject to reclassification when organizational changes are made, or for refinements in revenue and expense allocation methodologies. Refinements are typically reflected on a prospective basis. There were no reclassifications or organizational changes in the third quarter of 2026. In the first quarter of 2026, we realigned clients in Managed Accounts Solutions from the Asset Servicing line of business in the Securities Services business segment to the Wealth Solutions line of business in the Market and Wealth Services business segment. Business segment results for the three and nine months ended Sept. 30, 2025 have been revised to reflect this change.

The results of our business segments may be influenced by client and other activities that vary by quarter. In the first quarter, staff expense typically increases, reflecting the vesting of long-term stock awards for retirement-eligible employees. The timing of our annual employee salary increases also impacts staff expense. The annual employee salary increases are effective in March. In the second quarter, Depositary Receipts revenue is typically higher due to an increased level of client dividend payments. In the third quarter, volume-related fees may decline due to reduced client activity. In the fourth quarter, we typically incur higher business development and marketing expenses. In our Investment and Wealth Management business segment, performance fees are typically higher in the fourth quarter, as that quarter represents the end of the measurement period for many of the performance fee-eligible relationships.

The results of our business segments may also be impacted by the translation of financial results denominated in foreign currencies into the U.S. dollar. We are primarily impacted by activities denominated in the British pound and the euro. On a consolidated basis and in our Securities Services and Market and Wealth Services business segments, we typically have more foreign currency-denominated expenses than revenues. However, our Investment and Wealth Management business segment typically has more foreign currency-denominated revenues than expenses. Overall, currency fluctuations impact the year-over-year growth rate in the Investment and Wealth Management business segment more than the Securities Services and Market and Wealth Services business segments. However, currency fluctuations, in isolation, are not expected to significantly impact net income on a consolidated basis.

Fee revenue in the Investment and Wealth Management business segment, and, to a lesser extent, in the Securities Services and Market and Wealth Services business segments, is impacted by global market fluctuations. At Sept. 30, 2026, we estimated that a 5% change in global equity markets, spread evenly throughout the year, would impact fee revenue by less than 1% and diluted earnings per common share by $0.05 to $0.08.

See Note 16 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the consolidating schedules, which show the contribution of our business segments to our overall profitability.

The Securities Services business segment consists of two distinct lines of business, Asset Servicing and Issuer Services, which provide business solutions across the transaction life cycle to our global asset owner and asset manager clients. We are one of the leading global investment services providers, with $45.9 trillion of AUC/A at Sept. 30, 2026. For

information on the drivers of the Securities Services fee revenue, see Note 9 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2025 Annual Report.

The Asset Servicing business provides a comprehensive suite of solutions. We are one of the largest global custody, fund administrator and front-to-back outsourcing service providers. We offer services for the safekeeping of assets in capital

BNY 13 markets globally as well as fund accounting services, exchange-traded funds servicing, transfer agency, trust and depository, front-to-back capabilities, data and analytics solutions and digital asset custody and administration services for our clients. We deliver foreign exchange, and securities lending and financing solutions, on both an agency and principal basis. Our agency securities lending program is one of the largest lenders of U.S. and non-U.S. securities, servicing a lendable asset pool of approximately $6.6 trillion in 36 markets. Our market-leading liquidity services portal enables cash investments for institutional clients and includes fund research and analytics.

AUC/A of $45.9 trillion increased 11% compared with Sept. 30, 2025, primarily reflecting higher market values, net client inflows and net new business, partially offset by the unfavorable impact of a stronger U.S. dollar.

Total revenue of $2.8 billion increased 15% compared with the third quarter of 2025. The drivers of total revenue by line of business are indicated below.

Asset Servicing revenue of $2.1 billion increased 12% compared with the third quarter of 2025,

primarily reflecting higher net interest income, client activity, net new business and market values.

Issuer Services revenue of $690 million increased 27% compared with the third quarter of 2025, primarily reflecting higher Corporate Trust revenue, including the impact of pass-through activity associated with our role as financial agent for Trump Accounts.

Market and regulatory trends are driving investable assets toward lower fee asset management products at reduced margins for our clients. These dynamics are also negatively impacting our investment services fees. However, at the same time, these trends are providing additional outsourcing opportunities as clients and other market participants seek to comply with regulations and reduce their operating costs.

Noninterest expense of $1.8 billion increased 10% compared with the third quarter of 2025, primarily reflecting higher revenue-related expenses and investments, partially offset by efficiency savings and lower severance expense.

Total revenue of $8.3 billion increased 16% compared with the first nine months of 2025. Asset Servicing revenue of $6.4 billion increased 16% compared with the first nine months of 2025, primarily reflecting higher net interest income, client activity, market values, foreign exchange revenue and the first quarter 2026 investment gains. Issuer Services revenue of $1.9 billion increased 15%, primarily reflecting higher Corporate Trust revenue, partially offset by the absence of a first quarter 2025 disposal gain.

Noninterest expense of $5.2 billion increased 8% compared with the first nine months of 2025, primarily reflecting higher revenue-related expenses and investments, partially offset by efficiency savings.
