Quarterly Report for Quarter Ending September 30, 2026 (Form 10-Q)

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and other information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as well as with M&T's 2025 Annual Report. Information regarding the Company's business, its supervision and regulation and potential risks and uncertainties that may affect the Company's business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations are also included in the 2025 Annual Report.
Financial Reporting Matters
As reported on M&T's Form 8-K dated September 28, 2026, effective for the third quarter of 2026 M&T made certain changes and reclassifications to other income categories presented in its Consolidated Statement of Income. Also effective for the third quarter of 2026, M&T began separately presenting loans held for sale from loans held for investment in its Consolidated Balance Sheet and its Average Balance Sheet and Annualized Taxable-equivalent Rates disclosures. Accordingly, annualized taxable-equivalent rates for each impacted loan category and certain loan-based credit quality ratios exclude loans held for sale. Additionally, as reported in M&T's Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, in conjunction with the implementation of a new general ledger platform during the second quarter of 2026, the Company modified its methodology for calculating annualized taxable-equivalent rates for certain earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, including certain average deposit balances. All periods presented herein reflect those changes.
Effective January 1, 2026, the Company elected to prospectively measure its residential mortgage loan servicing right assets at fair value with changes in fair value reflected in mortgage banking revenues. As a result, amortization associated with residential mortgage loan servicing right assets previously recognized in other costs of operations is no longer recorded. Instead, beginning in 2026, fair value changes in the residential mortgage loan servicing right assets, inclusive of the realization of expected net servicing revenues over time, are included in mortgage banking revenues. On December 31, 2025, the Company began economically hedging the risk of fair value changes in these assets through the use of various interest rate and other derivative contracts, for which changes in fair value are also reflected in mortgage banking revenues. As a result of the Company's election on January 1, 2026 to prospectively measure residential mortgage loan servicing right assets at fair value, the Company recorded an increase in capitalized servicing assets included in accrued interest and other assets of $263 million and a corresponding after-tax increase to retained earnings of $197 million, representing an 8 basis-point increase to the CET1 capital ratio on the election date.

__________________________________________________________________________________
(a)Net interest income data are presented on a taxable-equivalent basis which is a non-GAAP measure. The taxable-equivalent adjustment represents additional income taxes that would be due if all interest income were subject to income taxes. This adjustment, which is related to interest received on qualified municipal securities, industrial revenue financings and preferred equity securities, is based on the statutory federal income tax rate.
The decrease in net income in the recent quarter as compared with the second quarter of 2026 resulted from the following:
•Net interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis increased nominally reflecting an additional day, partially offset by lower interest income on nonaccrual loans. The Company's net interest margin declined 5 basis points from the second quarter of 2026 as the increase in rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities outpaced the growth in yields on earning assets.
•The provision for credit losses increased $15 million reflecting loan growth and a provision for unfunded credit commitments in the recent quarter.
•Noninterest income increased $3 million resulting from an increase in residential mortgage banking revenues, partially offset by a decrease in capital markets and advisory revenues and a lower distribution from M&T's investment in BLG in the recent quarter.
•Noninterest expense rose $44 million reflecting an increase in outside data processing and software costs and professional and other services expense each associated with enhancements and support of technology infrastructure and other enterprise initiatives as well as higher salaries and employee benefits expense.
The increase in net income in the nine months ended September 30, 2026 as compared with the same 2025 period reflected the following:
•Net interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis increased $170 million reflecting higher average earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. A 3 basis-point expansion of the Company's net interest margin reflects reductions in deposit and borrowing costs that outpaced a decline in yields received on earning assets and lower contribution from net interest-free funds.
•The provision for credit losses increased $15 million reflecting loan growth, partially offset by a lower provision for unfunded credit commitments.
- 51 -
•Noninterest income rose $126 million reflecting higher trust and investment services income, capital markets and advisory revenues and other revenues from operations. Distributions from M&T's investment in BLG included in other revenues from operations totaled $111 million in the first nine months of 2026 and $20 million in the comparable 2025 period. Other revenues from operations in the first three quarters of 2025 also included a $28 million distribution of an earnout payment related to the Company's 2023 sale of its CIT business, gains on the sales of an out-of-footprint loan portfolio of $15 million and a subsidiary that specialized in institutional services of $10 million, and a $12 million gain on the sale of equipment leases. Mortgage banking revenues in the first nine months of 2026 reflect a rise in residential mortgage loan sub-servicing income, partially offset by the impact of the Company's accounting election described herein.
•Noninterest expense increased $66 million reflecting a rise in salaries and employee benefits expense, outside data processing and software costs, and professional and other services expense, partially offset by lower other costs of operations. Other costs of operations in the first nine months of 2025 included amortization of residential mortgage loan servicing right assets of $75 million.
Under programs authorized by the Board of Directors, M&T repurchased 1.3 million shares of its common stock in the recent quarter at a total cost of $323 million, compared with 2.1 million shares at a total cost of $465 million in the second quarter of 2026. During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, M&T repurchased 8.9 million shares of its common stock at a total cost of $2.0 billion, compared with 11.6 million shares at a total cost of $2.2 billion during the first nine months of 2025. In July 2026, M&T issued 60,000 shares of Perpetual Fixed Rate Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series L, with a liquidation preference of $10,000 per share. On November 1, 2026, M&T redeemed all 50,000 outstanding shares of its Perpetual Fixed-to-Floating Rate Non-cumulative Preferred Stock, Series F, for $500 million.
Supplemental Reporting of Non-GAAP Results of Operations
M&T consistently provides supplemental reporting of its results on a "net operating" or "tangible" basis, from which M&T excludes the after-tax effect of amortization of core deposit and other intangible assets (and the related goodwill, core deposit intangible and other intangible asset balances, net of applicable deferred tax amounts) and gains (when realized) and expenses (when incurred) associated with merging acquired or to be acquired operations into the Company, since such items are considered by management to be "nonoperating" in nature. Although "net operating income" as defined by M&T is not a GAAP measure, M&T's management believes that this information helps investors understand the effect of acquisition activity in reported results.

The efficiency ratio measures the relationship of noninterest operating expenses, which exclude expenses M&T considers to be "nonoperating" in nature consisting of amortization of core deposit and other intangible assets and merger-related expenses, to revenues. The calculations of the Company's efficiency ratio, or noninterest operating expenses divided by the sum of taxable-equivalent net interest income and noninterest income (exclusive of gains and losses from bank investment securities), and reconciliations of GAAP amounts with corresponding non-GAAP amounts are presented in Table 2.

Taxable-equivalent Net Interest Income
Interest income earned on certain of the Company's assets is exempt from federal income tax. Taxable-equivalent net interest income is a non-GAAP measure that adjusts income earned on a tax-exempt asset to present it on an equivalent basis to interest income earned on a fully taxable asset. The Company's average balance sheets accompanied by the taxable-equivalent interest income and expense and the annualized average rate on the Company's earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities are presented as follows.

Taxable-equivalent net interest income can be impacted by changes in the composition of the Company's earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, as discussed herein, as well as changes in interest rates and spreads. The FOMC raised its federal funds target interest rate by 25 basis points in September 2026. The FOMC lowered its federal funds target interest rate by a total of 75 basis points in the last four months of 2025 and then maintained its target interest rate until that aforementioned increase.
Taxable-equivalent net interest income increased nominally in the recent quarter as compared with the second quarter of 2026 reflective of an additional day, lower interest income on nonaccrual loans and loan growth that was funded by interest-bearing deposits as the Company reduced its average short-term borrowings. The net interest margin declined to 3.65% reflecting an 8 basis-point increase in rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities resulting from the growth and mix of deposits and the FOMC action in September, partially offset by a 1 basis-point increase in yields received on earning assets and a 2 basis-point increase in the contribution of net interest-free funds.
Taxable-equivalent net interest income for the first nine months of 2026 increased $170 million as compared with the same 2025 period. That increase reflects higher earning assets and a 3 basis-point widening of the net interest margin to 3.68% driven by a 33 basis-point decrease in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities, partially offset by a 15 basis-point decline in each of the yields received on earning assets and the contribution from net interest-free funds. The aforementioned FOMC interest rate reductions in 2025 contributed to those changes. The yields received on earning assets in the first nine months of 2026 reflect a comparatively favorable impact from interest rate swap agreements entered into for interest rate risk purposes on yields received on commercial and industrial and commercial real estate loans. Partially offsetting the overall decline in yields received on earning assets was an increase in the yields received on investment securities from the deployment of liquidity into fixed rate investment securities throughout 2025 and the first nine months of 2026 that yielded higher rates than investment securities that matured or were sold.
Future changes in market interest rates or spreads, as well as changes in the composition of the Company's portfolios of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities that result in changes to spreads, could impact the Company's net interest income and net interest margin. Future changes in the levels of net interest-free funds and the interest rates used to value such funds could also impact the Company's net interest margin.
Interest rate swap agreements
Management assesses the potential impact of future changes in interest rates and spreads by projecting net interest income under several interest rate scenarios. In managing interest rate risk, the Company has utilized interest rate swap agreements to modify the repricing characteristics of certain portions of its earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Under the terms of those interest rate swap agreements, the Company generally received payments based on the outstanding notional amount at fixed rates and made payments at variable rates. Periodic settlement amounts arising from these agreements are reflected in either the yields received on earning assets or the rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities. The Company enters into forward-starting interest rate swap agreements predominantly to hedge interest rate exposures expected in future periods. The following table summarizes information about interest rate swap agreements entered into for interest rate risk management purposes at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

•Commercial real estate loans increased $1.6 billion primarily reflecting an increase in average permanent loans secured by multifamily and health services properties.
•Average residential real estate loans increased $367 million reflecting purchases in the second quarter of 2026 and the retention of originated residential mortgage loans.
•Average consumer loans increased $634 million reflecting higher average balances of recreational finance loans of $561 million and modest growth in average balances of home equity loans and lines of credit.
In the first nine months of 2026, average loans increased $5.6 billion from the corresponding 2025 period.
•Average commercial and industrial loans increased $3.9 billion reflecting growth that spanned most industry types.
•Average commercial real estate loans declined $1.1 billion reflecting various strategies the Company executed to reduce its relative concentration of such loans designated as criticized, partially offset by increased originations in 2026. Average commercial real estate construction loans decreased $1.5 billion, partially offset by an increase of $429 million in average permanent commercial real estate loans. The decline in average commercial real estate construction loans reflects the sale of $661 million of out-of-footprint residential builder and developer loans in June 2025.
•Average residential real estate loans increased $1.3 billion reflecting the retention of originated residential mortgage loans and purchases.
•Average consumer loans increased $1.5 billion primarily reflecting growth in average recreational finance loans of $1.2 billion and home equity loans and lines of credit of $243 million.

Investing activities
The Company's investment securities portfolio is primarily comprised of government-issued or guaranteed residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities and U.S. Treasury securities, but also includes municipal and other securities. When purchasing investment securities, the Company considers its liquidity position and its overall interest rate risk profile as well as the adequacy of expected returns relative to risks assumed, including prepayments. The Company may occasionally sell investment securities as a result of movements in interest rates and spreads, changes in liquidity needs, actual or anticipated prepayments, credit risk associated with a particular security, or as a result of restructuring its investment securities portfolio. The amounts of investment securities held by the Company are influenced by such factors as available yield in comparison with alternative investments, demand for loans, which generally yield more than investment securities, ongoing repayments, the levels of deposits, and management of liquidity and balance sheet size and resulting capital ratios.
In July 2026, the Company transferred $8.3 billion of residential mortgage-backed securities from the available-for-sale portfolio to the held-to-maturity portfolio with gross unrealized gains of $32 million and gross unrealized losses of $24 million at the time of transfer. Those transfers reflect the Company's ability and intent to hold the investment securities until maturity and reduce the impact of future fluctuations in their fair value on its capital position.

(a)Primarily government issued or guaranteed.
The investment securities portfolio averaged $38.6 billion in the third quarter of 2026, a modest decline from the second quarter of 2026. Investment securities averaged $38.4 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, an increase of $2.9 billion from the similar 2025 period. That increase reflects the Company's deployment of liquidity into predominantly fixed-rate mortgage-backed investment securities. In the first quarter of 2026 the Company sold $2.5 billion of U.S. Treasury securities, all of which had maturity dates in 2026. There were no significant sales of debt investment securities in the second or third quarters of 2026 or the first three quarters of 2025. The weighted-average current yield for total investment securities available for sale was 4.48% at September 30, 2026, compared with 4.73% at June 30, 2026 and 4.65% at September 30, 2025. The weighted-average duration of that portfolio was 3.6 years and 3.1 years at September 30, 2026 and June 30, 2026, respectively, compared with 2.5 years at September 30, 2025. The increase in the weighted-average duration from September 30, 2025 reflects the sale of U.S. Treasury securities near maturity and purchase of fixed-rate mortgage-backed investment securities with longer maturity dates and the impact of rising interest rates on fixed-rate mortgage-backed investment securities. The Company routinely adjusts its holdings of capital stock of the FHLB of New York and the FRB of New York based on amounts of outstanding borrowings and available lines of credit with those entities.
The Company regularly reviews its debt investment securities for declines in value below amortized cost that might be indicative of credit-related losses. There were no credit-related losses on debt investment securities recognized in each of the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025. Additional information about the investment securities portfolio is included in notes 3 and 13 of Notes to Financial Statements.
Other earning assets are comprised primarily of interest-bearing deposits at banks. Other earning assets averaged $14.2 billion and $15.1 billion during the three months ended September 30, 2026 and June 30, 2026, respectively, and $15.2 billion and $19.1 billion during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The amounts of other earning assets at those respective dates were primarily comprised of deposits held at the FRB of New York. The Company considers such deposits to be an immediate source of funds in its liquidity management processes. In general, the levels of those deposits often fluctuate due to changes in deposits of retail and commercial customers, trust-related deposits and brokered deposits, lending activities and additions to or maturities of investment securities or borrowings.

Funding activities - deposits
The most significant source of funding for the Company is core deposits from its customer base. The Company considers noninterest-bearing deposits, savings and interest-checking deposits and time deposits of $250,000 or less as core deposits. The Company's domestic banking network is its principal source of core deposits, which generally carry lower interest rates than wholesale funds of comparable maturities. Average core deposits represented 79% of average earning assets for each of the quarters ended September 30, 2026 and June 30, 2026 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared with 78% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The Company also utilizes brokered deposits as a component of its wholesale funding strategy. Depending on market conditions, including demand by customers and other investors, and the cost of funds available from alternative sources, the Company may change the amount or composition of brokered deposits in the future. The following table provides an analysis of changes in the components of average deposits.

__________________________________________________________________________________
(a)During the second quarter of 2026, certain savings and interest-checking deposit arrangements were redesignated as core deposits consistent with regulatory presentation. The resulting increase in average core deposits and decrease in average brokered deposits was $4.4 billion and $3.5 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and June 30, 2026, respectively, and was $2.7 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2026.
Total deposits averaged $166.8 billion in the recent quarter, up $3.3 billion from the second quarter of 2026. The increase reflects higher average core savings and interest-checking deposits of $2.4 billion and average brokered time deposits of $1.2 billion.
In the first nine months of 2026, total average deposits increased $2.5 billion from the first nine months of 2025. Average core deposits increased $5.3 billion reflecting growth in average savings and interest-checking deposits from commercial customers and the redesignation of certain deposit arrangements in the second quarter of 2026. Partially offsetting that increase was lower average noninterest-bearing deposits predominantly from commercial customers.

The Company uses borrowing capacity from banks, the FHLBs, the FRB of New York and others as sources of funding. Short-term borrowings represent arrangements that at the time they were entered into had a contractual maturity of one year or less. The levels of short-term borrowings in the third quarter of 2026 as compared with the second quarter of 2026, as well as for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 as compared with the similar 2025 period reflect the Company's management of liquidity.
The levels of long-term borrowings reflect the Company's strategies to maintain diversified wholesale funding sources and provide long-term funding stabilization. The following table provides a summary of the Company's issuances, maturities and redemptions of long-term borrowings in the recent quarter as well as for the nine months ended September 30, 2026.

Provision for Credit Losses
A provision for credit losses is recorded to adjust the level of the allowance to reflect expected credit losses that are based on economic forecasts as of each reporting date. A provision for credit losses of $135 million was recorded in the third quarter of 2026, compared with $120 million in the second quarter of 2026. A $5 million provision for unfunded credit commitments was recorded in the third quarter of 2026. There was no provision for unfunded credit commitments in the second quarter of 2026. The higher provision for credit losses in the third quarter of 2026 as compared with the second quarter of 2026 reflects loan growth. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $395 million and $380 million, respectively.

__________________________________________________________________________________
(a)Primarily residential real estate loans.
Nonaccrual loans at September 30, 2026 increased $90 million from June 30, 2026 reflecting a $47 million rise in commercial and industrial nonaccrual loans and a $41 million rise in commercial real estate nonaccrual loans. Nonaccrual loans declined $214 million from September 30, 2025, primarily driven by a $143 million reduction in commercial and industrial nonaccrual loans and an $89 million reduction in commercial real estate nonaccrual loans. Approximately 48% of nonaccrual commercial and industrial and commercial real estate loans were considered current with respect to their payment status at September 30, 2026.
Government-guaranteed loans designated as accruing loans past due 90 days or more included one-to-four family residential mortgage loans serviced by the Company that were repurchased to reduce associated servicing costs, including a requirement to advance principal and interest payments that had not been received from individual mortgagors. Despite the loans being purchased by the Company, the insurance or guarantee by the applicable government-related entity remains in force. The outstanding principal balances of the repurchased loans that are guaranteed by government-related entities included in accruing loans past due 90 days or more totaled $468 million at September 30, 2026, $489 million at June 30, 2026, $459 million at December 31, 2025 and $333 million at September 30, 2025. Accruing loans past due 90 days or more not guaranteed by government-related entities were loans considered to be with creditworthy borrowers that were in the process of collection or renewal. Additional information about past due and nonaccrual loans is included in note 4 of Notes to Financial Statements.
The Company utilizes a loan grading system to differentiate risk amongst its commercial and industrial loans and commercial real estate loans. Loans with a lower expectation of default are assigned one of ten possible "pass" loan grades while specific loans determined to have an elevated level of credit risk are designated as "criticized." A criticized loan may be designated as "nonaccrual" if the Company no longer expects to collect all amounts owed under the terms of the loan agreement or the loan is delinquent 90 days or more. Targeted reviews are periodically performed over segments of loan portfolios that may be experiencing heightened credit risk due to current or anticipated economic conditions. The intention of such reviews is to identify trends across such portfolios and inform portfolio risk limits and loss mitigation strategies. In the recent quarter, the Company continued to monitor commercial borrowers in certain industry sectors that may be affected by rising interest rates, higher energy and transportation costs and international trade policy changes, such as tariffs, including retail and wholesale trade, manufacturing, food service and packaging companies. The Company has considered the information gathered in such reviews in the assignment of loan grades.
- 64 -
The Company continues to monitor its commercial real estate loan portfolio. The primary source of repayment of these loans is typically tenant lease payments to the investor/borrower. Elevated vacancies impacting some property types have contributed to lower current and anticipated future debt service coverage ratios, which have and may continue to influence the ability of borrowers to make existing loan payments. Lower debt service coverage ratios, reduced commercial real estate values and potentially higher interest rates could also impact the ability of borrowers to refinance their obligations at loan maturity. The Company actively monitors interest rate-sensitive borrowers to reassess loan grades. The LTV ratio is one of many factors considered in assessing overall portfolio risks and loss mitigation strategies for the investor-owned commercial real estate portfolio. In determining the LTV ratio, the Company considers cross-collateralization of all exposures secured by the supporting collateral and the estimated value of such collateral. Subsequent to the origination of commercial real estate loans, updated appraisals are obtained in the normal course of business for renewals, extensions and modifications to commitment levels. As the quality of a loan deteriorates to the point of designating the loan as "criticized nonaccrual," the process of obtaining updated collateral valuation information is usually initiated, unless it is not considered warranted given factors such as the relative size of the loan or the age of the last valuation. In those cases where current appraisals may not yet be available, prior appraisals are utilized with adjustments, as deemed necessary, for estimates of subsequent declines in values as determined by line of business and/or loan workout personnel. Those adjustments are reviewed and assessed for reasonableness by the Company's credit risk personnel. Accordingly, for real estate collateral securing larger nonaccrual commercial and industrial loans and commercial real estate loans, estimated collateral values are generally based on current estimates of value.
The Company monitors its concentration of commercial real estate lending as a percent of its Tier 1 capital plus its allowable allowance for credit losses, consistent with a metric utilized to differentiate such concentrations amongst regulated financial institutions. This metric, as prescribed in supervisory guidance, excludes loans secured by commercial real estate considered to be owner-occupied, but includes certain other loans, such as loans to real estate investment trusts, that are classified as commercial and industrial loans. The Company's commercial real estate loan concentration approximated 137% of Tier 1 capital plus its allowable allowance for credit losses at September 30, 2026, compared with 134% at June 30, 2026, 124% at December 31, 2025 and 128% at September 30, 2025.
The accompanying tables summarize the outstanding balances, and associated criticized balances, of commercial and industrial loans by industry and commercial real estate loans by property type, respectively, at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

The $203 million reduction in commercial and industrial criticized loans from December 31, 2025 to September 30, 2026 reflects lower criticized loans to motor vehicle and recreational finance dealers, wholesale and health services industries, partially offset by higher criticized loans predominantly to borrowers in the retail and financial and insurance industries. The $958 million decline in commercial real estate criticized loans from December 31, 2025 to September 30, 2026 reflects a $485 million decline in construction and development loans designated as criticized and a $473 million decline in criticized permanent loans secured by most property types. At September 30, 2026, approximately 97% of criticized accrual loans and 48% of criticized nonaccrual loans were considered current with respect to their payment status.
For loans secured by residential real estate the Company's loss identification and estimation techniques make reference to loan performance and house price data in specific areas of the country where collateral securing those loans is located. For loans secured by residential real estate, including home equity loans and lines of credit, the excess of the loan balance over the net realizable value of the property collateralizing the loan is charged-off when the loan becomes 150 days delinquent. Information about the location of nonaccrual loans secured by residential real estate at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 is presented in the following table.

Factors that influence the Company's credit loss experience include overall economic conditions affecting businesses and consumers, generally, but also residential and commercial real estate valuations, in particular, given the size of the Company's real estate loan portfolios. Commercial real estate valuations can be highly subjective, as they are based upon many assumptions. Such valuations can be significantly affected over relatively short periods of time by changes in business climate, economic conditions, interest rates and, in many cases, the results of operations of businesses and other occupants of the real property. Similarly, residential real estate valuations can be impacted by housing trends, the availability of financing at reasonable interest rates and general economic conditions affecting consumers.
- 67 -
Consumer loans not secured by residential real estate are generally charged-off when the loans are 91 to 180 days past due, depending on whether the loan is collateralized and the status of repossession activities with respect to such collateral. The Company primarily originates recreational finance loans and automobile loans indirectly through dealerships across the U.S. At September 30, 2026, the percent of recreational finance loans and automobile loans with FICO scores of 700 or greater at origination date was 99% and 84%, respectively. A comparative summary of nonaccrual consumer loan balances and the respective percent of outstanding balances of each consumer loan product at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 is presented in the following table.

Allowance for loan losses
Management determines the allowance for loan losses under accounting guidance that requires estimating the amount of current expected credit losses over the remaining contractual term of the loan portfolio. A description of the methodologies used by the Company to estimate its allowance for loan losses can be found in note 4 of Notes to Financial Statements.
At the time of the Company's analysis regarding the determination of the allowance for loan losses as of September 30, 2026 uncertainties existed about the impact of inflationary pressures, rising interest rates and potential increases in unemployment on the discretionary income and purchasing power of consumers, which could impact their ability to service existing debt obligations; the volatile nature of global markets and international economic conditions that could impact the U.S. economy, including the effect of international trade policies and recent military conflicts on domestic businesses and consumers; uncertainty related to Federal Reserve positioning of monetary policy and the potential impacts on future economic growth; potential shifts in the labor market resulting from rapid development and deployment of generative and agentic artificial intelligence; downward pressures on commercial real estate values, including office properties, and the impacts on the ability of commercial borrowers to refinance maturing debt obligations at potentially higher interest rates; and the extent to which borrowers may be negatively affected by general economic conditions.
In establishing the allowance for loan losses, the Company estimates losses attributable to specific troubled credits identified through both normal and targeted credit review processes and also estimates losses for other loans with similar risk characteristics on a collective basis, generally through the use of statistically developed credit models, which are required to achieve a satisfactory independent validation by the Company's Model Risk Management Department, or other quantitative methodologies. In determining the allowance for loan losses, the Company may adjust forecasted loss estimates for inherent limitations or biases in the models as well as for other factors that may not be adequately considered in its quantitative methodologies including the impact of portfolio concentrations, imprecision in economic forecasts, geopolitical conditions and other risk factors that influence the loss estimation process. At each of September 30, 2026, June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company qualitatively adjusted credit loss estimates for inherent limitations in the ability to assess real-time changes in commercial borrower performance and for environmental influences affecting certain loan portfolios. Qualitative adjustments at September 30, 2026, June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, primarily related to portfolio exposures to certain commercial and industrial borrowers, commercial real estate loans and consumer loans, were generally similar. Such qualitative adjustments at March 31, 2026 were elevated reflective of the potential negative impact of global conflicts on economic forecasts utilized at that date.

Forward-looking estimates of certain macroeconomic variables are determined by the M&T Scenario Review Committee, which is comprised of senior management business leaders and economists. The weighted-average of macroeconomic assumptions utilized as of September 30, 2026, June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 are presented in the following table and were based on information available at or near the time the Company was preparing its estimate of expected credit losses as of those dates.

With respect to economic forecasts, the Company assessed the likelihood of alternative economic scenarios during the two-year reasonable and supportable forecast period. Generally, an increase in unemployment rate or a decrease in any of the rate of change in GDP, commercial real estate prices or home prices could have an adverse impact on expected credit losses and may result in an increase to the allowance for loan losses. Forward-looking economic forecasts are subject to inherent imprecision and future outcomes may differ materially from forecasted events. In consideration of such uncertainty, the alternative economic scenarios shown in the following table were considered to estimate the possible impact on modeled credit losses.

These examples are only a few of the numerous possible economic scenarios that could be utilized in assessing the sensitivity of expected credit losses. The estimated impacts on credit losses in such scenarios pertain only to modeled credit losses and do not include consideration of other factors the Company may evaluate when determining its allowance for loan losses. As a result, it is possible that the Company may, at another point in time, reach different conclusions regarding credit loss estimates. The Company's process for determining the allowance for loan losses undergoes quarterly and periodic evaluations by independent risk management personnel, which among many other considerations, evaluate the reasonableness of management's methodology and significant assumptions.

A comparative summary of the Company's allowance for loan losses by loan type and the reserve for unfunded credit commitments is presented in the following table.
ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES AND RESERVE FOR UNFUNDED CREDIT COMMITMENTS
(Dollars in millions) September 30, 2026 June 30, 2026 December 31, 2025
Allowance for loan losses:
Commercial and industrial $ 842 $ 832 $ 771

Allowance for loan losses as a percent of total nonaccrual loans (b) 168 180 169
Reserve for unfunded credit commitments (c) $ 93 $ 95 $ 80
__________________________________________________________________________________
(a)Included in the allowance for loan losses were reserves allocated as a percent of commercial real estate loans secured by office properties of 3.98% at September 30, 2026, 3.91% at June 30, 2026 and 4.65% at December 31, 2025.
(b)Given the Company's general position as a secured lender and its practice of charging off loan balances when collection is deemed doubtful, this ratio and changes in the ratio are generally not an indicative measure of the adequacy of the Company's allowance for loan losses, nor does management rely upon this ratio in assessing the adequacy of the Company's allowance for loan losses.
(c)Included in Accrued interest and other liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
Management has assessed that the allowance for loan losses at September 30, 2026 appropriately reflected expected credit losses in the portfolio as of that date. The lower ratio of the allowance for loan losses as a percent of total loans outstanding at September 30, 2026 and June 30, 2026 as compared with December 31, 2025 reflects lower levels of criticized commercial and industrial loans and commercial real estate loans, partially offset by loan growth. The level of the allowance reflects management's evaluation of the loan portfolio as of each respective date using the methodology and considering the factors as described herein. Should the various economic forecasts and credit factors considered by management in establishing the allowance for loan losses change and should management's assessment of losses in the loan portfolio also change, the level of the allowance as a percent of loans could increase or decrease in future periods.

Mortgage banking revenues
Mortgage banking revenues are comprised of both residential and commercial mortgage banking activities, which consist of realized gains and losses from sales of real estate loans and loan servicing rights, unrealized gains and losses on real estate loans held for sale and related commitments, real estate loan servicing fees, and other real estate loan related fees and income. The Company's involvement in commercial mortgage banking activities includes the origination, sales and servicing of loans under the multifamily loan programs of Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.

(b)The contractual servicing rights associated with residential mortgage loans sub-serviced by the Company were primarily held by affiliates of BLG. Information about the Company's relationship with BLG and its affiliates is included in note 16 of Notes to Financial Statements.
Effective January 1, 2026, the Company elected to prospectively measure its residential mortgage loan servicing right assets at fair value with changes in fair value reflected in mortgage banking revenues. As a result, fair value changes in the mortgage loan servicing right assets, inclusive of the realization of expected net servicing revenues over time, are included in mortgage banking revenues. On December 31, 2025, the Company began economically hedging the risk of fair value changes in these assets through the use of various interest rate and other derivative contracts, for which changes in fair value are also reflected in mortgage banking revenues.
- 72 -
In June 2026, the Company began sub-servicing $62.9 billion of additional residential mortgage loans with contractual servicing rights held by Bayview Financial. In March 2026, servicing functions for $30.1 billion of residential mortgage loans were returned to Bayview Financial as contractual holder of those servicing rights.
The higher residential mortgage banking revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 as compared with the three months ended June 30, 2026 and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, reflect increased sub-servicing revenues from the net addition of sub-serviced loans. Partially offsetting the increase in residential mortgage banking revenues in the first three quarters of 2026 as compared with the similar 2025 period was the impact of the Company's accounting election described herein.

The decline in gains on commercial mortgage loans originated for sale in the first nine months of 2026 as compared with the first nine months of 2025 reflects decreased volume of new commitments to originate commercial real estate loans for sale.
Service charges on deposit accounts
Service charges on deposit accounts for the first nine months of 2026 increased $15 million as compared with the first nine months of 2025 reflecting higher commercial service charges that resulted from pricing changes and increased customer usage of sweep products and higher consumer service charges.
Capital markets and advisory revenues
Capital markets and advisory revenues includes loan syndication fees, underwriting and advisory revenues along with fees related to interest rate swap agreements and foreign exchange contracts. The Company enters into interest rate swap agreements and foreign exchange contracts with customers who need such services and concomitantly enters into offsetting trading positions with third parties to minimize the risks involved with these types of transactions. Information about the notional amount of interest rate, foreign exchange and other non-hedging contracts entered into by the Company is included in note 11 of Notes to Financial Statements and herein under the heading "Market Risk and Interest Rate Sensitivity." As compared with the second quarter of 2026, capital markets and advisory revenues decreased $9 million reflecting a decline in loan syndication fees and lower revenues from interest rate swap transactions with commercial customers in the recent quarter. For the first nine months of 2026, capital markets and advisory revenues increased $20 million reflecting higher revenues from interest rate swap transactions with commercial customers.

(a)During 2017, the operating losses of BLG resulted in M&T reducing the carrying value of its investment in BLG to zero. Subsequently, M&T has received cash distributions from BLG each year that resulted in the recognition of income by M&T. M&T expects cash distributions from BLG in the future, but the timing and amount of those distributions are not within M&T's control. BLG is entitled to receive distributions from its affiliates that provide asset management and other services that are available for distribution to M&T. Information about the Company's relationship with BLG and its affiliates is included in note 16 of Notes to Financial Statements.
Other revenues from operations decreased $10 million in the third quarter of 2026 as compared with the second quarter of 2026 reflecting a lower distribution from M&T's investment in BLG.
Higher other revenues from operations in the first nine months of 2026 as compared with the first nine months of 2025 reflected $91 million of higher distributions received from M&T's investment in BLG in the first nine months of 2026, partially offset by a distribution of an earnout payment of $28 million related to the Company's 2023 sale of its CIT business, gains on the sales of an out-of-footprint residential builder and developer loan portfolio of $15 million, a $12 million gain on the sale of equipment leases and a $10 million gain on the sale of a subsidiary that specialized in institutional services all of which occurred in the first nine months of 2025.

Salaries and employee benefits
Salaries and employee benefits expense increased $6 million in the recent quarter as compared with the second quarter of 2026 reflecting an additional working day in the recent quarter, partially offset by lower payroll-related taxes.
Salaries and employee benefits expense increased $39 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2026 as compared with the year-earlier period reflecting higher salaries expense from annual merit and other increases, commissions and incentive compensation. Employee benefits expenses reflected a rise in medical benefits expense and payroll-related taxes, partially offset by lower severance expense. Lower staffing levels partially offset increases in salaries and employee benefits expense.
Nonpersonnel expenses
Nonpersonnel expenses of $561 million in the recent quarter increased from $523 million in the second quarter of 2026 reflecting higher outside data processing and software expense driven by higher software maintenance and enhancements to the Company's technology infrastructure and an increase in professional and other services expense related to such enhancements and other enterprise initiatives.
Nonpersonnel expenses aggregated $1.61 billion and $1.58 billion in the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, reflecting a rise in outside data processing and software costs of $59 million associated with enhancements to the Company's technology infrastructure, and higher professional and other services expense of $28 million related to such enhancements and higher legal and review costs. Partially offsetting those increases was lower other costs of operations of $62 million driven by amortization associated with residential mortgage loan servicing right assets of $75 million in the first nine months of 2025, partially offset by higher costs associated with the Company's supplemental executive retirement savings plan in the first nine months of 2026 reflecting market performance.
Income Taxes
The Company's effective income tax rate was 23.1% for each of the third and second quarters of 2026 and the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025. The Company's effective tax rate is affected by the level of income earned that is exempt from tax relative to the overall level of pre-tax income, the amount of income allocated to the various state and local jurisdictions where the Company operates, because tax rates differ among such jurisdictions, and the impact of any large discrete or infrequently occurring items. The Company's effective tax rate in future periods may also be affected by any change in income tax laws or regulations and interpretations of income tax regulations that differ from the Company's interpretations by any of the various tax authorities that may examine tax returns filed by M&T or any of its subsidiaries.
Liquidity Risk
As a financial intermediary, the Company is exposed to various risks, including liquidity and market risk. Liquidity refers to the Company's ability to ensure that sufficient cash flow and liquid assets are available to satisfy current and future obligations, including demands for loans and deposit withdrawals, funding operating costs and other corporate purposes. Liquidity risk arises whenever the cash flows associated with financial instruments included in assets and liabilities differ.
The most significant source of funding for the Company is core deposits, which are generated from a large base of consumer, corporate and institutional customers. That customer base has become more geographically diverse as a result of expansion of the Company's businesses over time. Nevertheless, the Company faces competition in offering products and services from a large array of financial market participants, including banks, thrifts, mutual funds, securities dealers and others. Core deposits totaled $156.5 billion at September 30, 2026, up from $153.3 billion at December 31, 2025. The higher level of core deposits at September 30, 2026 reflects an increase in savings and interest-checking deposits, inclusive of the redesignation of certain brokered deposit arrangements that totaled $4.0 billion at March 31, 2026 as core deposits consistent with regulatory presentation, partially offset by lower noninterest-bearing deposits.
- 75 -
The Company supplements funding provided through core deposits with various short-term and long-term wholesale borrowings, including overnight federal funds purchases, repurchase agreements, advances from the FHLBs, brokered deposits and longer-term borrowings. M&T Bank has access to additional funding sources through secured borrowings from the FHLB of New York and the FRB of New York. M&T Bank is also a counterparty to the FRB of New York standing repurchase agreement facility, which allows it to enter into overnight repurchase transactions using eligible investment securities. At September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, long-term borrowings aggregated $13.6 billion and $10.9 billion, respectively, and short-term borrowings aggregated $6.4 billion and $2.1 billion, respectively. The balances of short-term borrowings generally reflect the Company's wholesale funding strategy and liquidity considerations at each of those dates. Information about the Company's borrowings is included in note 5 of Notes to Financial Statements.
The Company's wholesale funding sources include the placement of brokered deposits. Such deposits were comprised of savings and interest-checking and time deposit accounts that totaled 5% of the Company's total deposit base at September 30, 2026, compared with 7% at December 31, 2025. The lower level of brokered deposits reflects the redesignation of certain savings and interest-checking deposit arrangements as core deposits consistent with regulatory presentation, partially offset by higher brokered time deposits. The Company actively adjusts its wholesale funding sources in consideration of the competitive landscape for customer deposits and maintenance of its liquidity profile.
Total uninsured deposits were estimated to be $78.1 billion at September 30, 2026 and $78.9 billion at December 31, 2025. Approximately $10.8 billion and $9.0 billion of those uninsured deposits were collateralized by the Company at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The Company maintains available liquidity sources, which at September 30, 2026 represented approximately 121% of uninsured deposits that were not collateralized by the Company.
In addition to deposits and borrowings, other sources of liquidity include maturities and repayments of investment securities, loans and other earning assets, as well as cash generated from operations, such as fees collected for services. The Company also has the ability to securitize or sell certain financial assets, including various loan types, to provide other liquidity alternatives. U.S. Treasury and government-issued or guaranteed mortgage-backed securities comprised 95% of the Company's debt securities portfolio at September 30, 2026. The weighted-average durations of debt investment securities available for sale and held to maturity at September 30, 2026 were 3.6 years and 4.5 years, respectively.
The Company's ability to obtain funding from these sources could be negatively impacted should the Company experience a substantial deterioration in its financial condition or its debt ratings or should the availability of funding become restricted due to a disruption in the financial markets. The Company attempts to quantify such risks by conducting scenario analyses that estimate the liquidity impact resulting from a debt ratings downgrade and other market events. Such impact is estimated by attempting to measure the effect on available unsecured lines of credit, available capacity from secured borrowing sources and securitizable assets. On May 12, 2026, Fitch upgraded its ratings of M&T Bank's long-term deposits from A+ to AA- and short-term deposits from F1 to F1+.
The Company enters into contractual obligations in the normal course of business that require future cash payments. Such obligations include, among others, payments related to deposits, borrowings, leases and other contractual commitments. Off-balance sheet commitments to customers may impact liquidity, including commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit, commercial letters of credit, financial guarantees and indemnification contracts and commitments to sell real estate loans. Because many of these commitments or contracts expire without being funded in whole or in part, the contract amounts are not necessarily indicative of future cash flows. Further discussion of these commitments is provided in note 14 of Notes to Financial Statements.
M&T's primary source of funds to pay for operating expenses, shareholder dividends and treasury stock repurchases has historically been the receipt of dividends from its bank subsidiaries, which are subject to various regulatory limitations. Dividends from any bank subsidiary to M&T are limited by the amount of earnings of the subsidiary in the current year and the two preceding years. For purposes of that test, at September 30, 2026 approximately $1.7 billion was available for payment of dividends to M&T from bank subsidiaries. M&T may also obtain funding through long-term borrowings and the repayment of advances to subsidiaries. Further information about the long-

term outstanding borrowings of M&T is provided in note 5 of Notes to Financial Statements. As a bank holding company, M&T is obligated to serve as a managerial and financial source of strength to its bank subsidiaries as described in Part I, Item 1, "Business" of M&T's 2025 Annual Report and may provide advances to those subsidiaries. As its ability to access the capital markets may be affected by market disruptions, M&T maintains sufficient resources at its parent company to satisfy projected cash outflows for an extended period without reliance on dividends from subsidiaries or external financing. As of September 30, 2026, M&T's parent company liquidity, inclusive of the projected repayment of notes receivable from bank subsidiaries, covered projected cash outflows for 27 months, including dividends on common and preferred stock, debt service and scheduled debt maturities.
The Company's Executive ALCO Committee closely monitors the Company's liquidity position on an ongoing basis for compliance with internal policies and regulatory expectations. As a Category IV institution, the Company adheres to enhanced liquidity standards which require the performance of internal liquidity stress testing. The stress testing is designed to ensure the Company has sufficient liquidity to withstand both institution-specific and market-wide stress scenarios. For each scenario, the Company applies liquidity stress which may include deposit run-off, increased draws on unfunded loan commitments, increased collateral need for margin calls, increased haircuts on investment security-based funding and reductions in unsecured and secured borrowing capacity. Stress scenarios are measured over various time frames ranging from overnight to twelve months. As required by regulation, the Company maintains a liquidity buffer comprised of cash and highly liquid unencumbered securities to cover a 30-day stress horizon. Liquidity stress events occurring over longer time horizons can be mitigated by the availability of secured funding sources at the FHLB of New York and FRB of New York. As described in Part I, Item 1, "Liquidity" of M&T's 2025 Annual Report, the Federal Reserve and other federal banking regulators established the LCR as a uniform measure to ensure banking organizations hold sufficient amounts of cash and unencumbered high-quality liquid assets to cover net cash outflows over a 30-day liquidity stress period. As a Category IV institution with less than a $50 billion balance of weighted short-term wholesale funding, M&T is not subject to the LCR. M&T, however, estimates that its LCR on September 30, 2026 was 107%, exceeding the regulatory minimum standards that would be applicable if it were a Category III institution subject to the Category III reduced LCR requirements.
The table that follows is a summary of the Company's available sources of liquidity as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
AVAILABLE LIQUIDITY SOURCES
(Dollars in millions) September 30, 2026 December 31, 2025
Deposits at the FRB of New York $ 14,247 $ 16,966
Unused secured borrowing facilities:
FRB of New York 26,974 25,443
FHLB of New York 13,461 18,302
Unencumbered investment securities (after estimated haircuts) 27,150 27,241
Total $ 81,832 $ 87,952
Management continuously evaluates the use and mix of its various available funding alternatives, including short-term borrowings, issuances of long-term debt, the placement of brokered deposits and the securitization of certain loan products. Management does not anticipate engaging in any activities, either currently or in the long term, for which adequate funding would not be available and would therefore result in a significant strain on liquidity at either M&T or its subsidiary banks. In accordance with liquidity regulations, the Company maintains a contingency funding plan to facilitate on-going liquidity management in times of liquidity stress. The plan outlines various funding options available during a liquidity stress event and establishes a clear escalation protocol to be followed within the Company's Enterprise Risk Framework. The plan sets forth funding strategies and procedures that management can quickly leverage to assist in decision-making and specifies roles and responsibilities for departments impacted by a potential liquidity stress event.

Market Risk and Interest Rate Sensitivity
Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in the market prices and/or interest rates of the Company's financial instruments. A primary market risk the Company is exposed to is interest rate risk. Interest rate risk arises from the Company's core banking activities of lending and deposit-taking, because assets and liabilities reprice at different times and by different amounts as interest rates change. As a result, net interest income earned by the Company is subject to the effects of changing interest rates. The Company measures interest rate risk by calculating the variability of net interest income in future periods under various interest rate scenarios using projected balances for earning assets, interest-bearing liabilities and derivatives used to hedge interest rate risk. Management's philosophy toward interest rate risk management is to limit the variability of net interest income.
The Company's Executive ALCO Committee monitors the sensitivity of the Company's net interest income to changes in interest rates with the aid of a computer model that forecasts net interest income under different interest rate scenarios. In modeling changing interest rates, the Company considers different yield curve shapes that contemplate both parallel (that is, when interest rates at each point of the yield curve change by the same magnitude) and non-parallel (that is, allowing interest rates at points on the yield curve to change by different amounts) shifts in the yield curve. The Company also contemplates instantaneous and gradual shifts in the yield curve over the scenario time horizon. In utilizing the model, market-implied forward interest rates over the subsequent twelve months are generally used to determine a base interest rate scenario for the net interest income simulation. That calculated base net interest income is then compared with the income calculated under the varying interest rate scenarios. The model considers the impact of ongoing lending and deposit-gathering activities, as well as interrelationships in the magnitude and timing of the repricing of financial instruments, including the effect of changing interest rates on expected prepayments and maturities.
Management has taken actions to mitigate exposure to interest rate risk through the use of on- and off-balance sheet financial instruments and intends to do so in the future. Possible actions include, but are not limited to, changes in the pricing of loan and deposit products, modifying the composition of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, and adding to, modifying or terminating existing interest rate swap agreements or other financial instruments used for interest rate risk management purposes. At September 30, 2026, the aggregate notional amount of interest rate swap agreements entered into for interest rate risk management purposes that were currently in effect was $22.8 billion. In addition, the Company has entered into $10.0 billion of forward-starting interest rate swap agreements designated for hedging purposes. Information about interest rate swap agreements entered into for interest rate risk management purposes is included herein under the heading "Taxable-equivalent Net Interest Income" and in note 11 of Notes to Financial Statements.
The accompanying table as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 displays the estimated impact on projected net interest income in the base scenarios described above resulting from changes in market interest rates. The scenarios presented in the table below assume a gradual and parallel change in interest rates across repricing categories during the first modeling year.

The Company utilized many assumptions to calculate the impact that changes in interest rates may have on net interest income. The more significant of those assumptions included the rate of prepayments of mortgage-related assets, cash flows from derivative and other financial instruments, loan and deposit volumes, mix and pricing, and deposit maturities. Variations in amounts presented since December 31, 2025 reflect changes in the composition of the Company's earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, as well as the level of market-implied forward interest rates and hedging actions taken by the Company. M&T's cumulative upward deposit pricing beta, which is the change in deposit pricing in response to a change in market interest rates, approximated 55% amidst a rising interest rate environment from the first quarter of 2022 through the second quarter of 2024. M&T's cumulative downward deposit pricing beta beginning in the third quarter of 2024 through the recent quarter, when the FOMC increased the target rate by 25 basis points in September, approximated 52%. The assumptions used in interest rate sensitivity modeling are inherently uncertain and, as a result, the Company cannot precisely predict the impact of changes in interest rates on net interest income. Actual results may differ significantly from those presented due to the timing, magnitude and frequency of changes in interest rates and changes in market conditions and interest rate differentials (spreads) between maturity/repricing categories, as well as any actions, such as those previously described, which management may take to counter such changes.
Management also uses an EVE model to supplement the modeling technique described above and provide a long-term interest rate risk metric. EVE is a point-in-time analysis of the economic sensitivity of existing assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet positions that incorporates all cash flows over their estimated remaining lives. The EVE reflects the present value of cash flows from existing assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet financial instruments, but does not incorporate any assumptions for future originations, renewals or issuances. Management measures the impact of changes in market values due to interest rates under a number of scenarios, including immediate shifts of the yield curve. The percentage impact to the EVE resulting from a 100 basis-point increase and a 100 basis-point decrease in market interest rates was -3.6% and 1.8%, respectively, at September 30, 2026, and -5.1% and 2.2%, respectively, at December 31, 2025. The reduced EVE sensitivity at September 30, 2026 reflects the incorporation of updated data into the EVE model and other refinements in the second quarter of 2026.
In addition to the effect of interest rates, changes in fair value of the Company's financial instruments can also result from a lack of trading activity for similar instruments in the financial markets. Information about the fair valuation of financial instruments is presented in note 13 of Notes to Financial Statements.
The Company enters into interest rate and foreign exchange contracts to meet the financial needs of customers that it includes in its consolidated financial statements as other non-hedging derivatives within other assets and other liabilities. Financial instruments utilized for such activities consist primarily of interest rate swap agreements and forward and futures contracts related to foreign currencies. The Company generally mitigates the interest rate and foreign currency risk associated with customer activities by entering into offsetting positions with third parties that are also included in other assets and other liabilities. The fair values of non-hedging derivative positions associated with interest rate contracts and foreign currency and other option and futures contracts are presented in note 11 of Notes to Financial Statements. As with any non-government guaranteed financial instrument, the Company is exposed to credit risk associated with counterparties to its non-hedging derivative activities. Although the notional amounts of these contracts are not recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheet, the unsettled fair values of such financial instruments are recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The fair values of such non-hedging derivative assets and liabilities recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheet were $384 million and $876 million, respectively, at September 30, 2026 and $190 million and $409 million, respectively, at December 31, 2025. The amounts recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheet associated with the Company's non-hedging derivative activities at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 predominantly reflect changes in values associated with interest rate swap agreements entered into with commercial customers and financial institutions that are not subject to periodic variation margin settlement payments. Given the Company's policies and positions, management believes that the potential loss exposure to the Company resulting from market risk associated with other non-hedging derivative activities was not material at September 30, 2026, however, as previously noted, the Company is exposed to credit risk associated with counterparties to such activities. Information about the Company's use of derivative financial instruments is included in note 11 of Notes to Financial Statements.

On March 30, 2026, M&T's Board of Directors authorized a program under which $5.0 billion of common shares may be repurchased. That authorization replaced and terminated the previous authorized share repurchase program effective as of the same date. M&T repurchased 1.3 million and 2.1 million shares of its common stock at a total cost of $323 million and $465 million during the third and second quarters of 2026, respectively. During the first nine months of 2026 and 2025, M&T repurchased 8.9 million and 11.6 million shares of its common stock at a total cost of $2.0 billion and $2.2 billion, respectively. Discretion as to the amount and timing of authorized share repurchases in a given period has been delegated, through the authorization of the Board of Directors, to management and can be influenced by capital and liquidity requirements, including funding of future loan growth and other balance sheet management activities, as well as market and economic conditions. On February 1, 2026, M&T redeemed all 40,000 outstanding shares of its Perpetual Fixed Rate Reset Non-cumulative Preferred Stock, Series G, for $400 million. In July 2026, M&T issued 60,000 shares of Perpetual Fixed Rate Non-cumulative Preferred Stock, Series L, with a liquidation preference of $10,000 per share. On November 1, 2026, M&T redeemed all 50,000 outstanding shares of its Perpetual Fixed-to-Floating Rate Non-cumulative Preferred Stock, Series F, for $500 million.

M&T and its subsidiary banks are required to comply with applicable Capital Rules which prescribe minimum capital ratios. Capital Rules require buffers in addition to these minimum risk-based capital ratios. M&T is subject to an SCB requirement that is determined through the Federal Reserve's supervisory stress tests and M&T's bank subsidiaries are subject to a 2.5% capital conservation buffer requirement. The buffer requirement must be composed entirely of CET1 capital. In June 2026, the Federal Reserve released the results of its most recent supervisory stress tests, which would imply a reduction of M&T's SCB to the 2.5% minimum. In February 2026, however, the Federal Reserve announced that the previous SCB requirements would continue in effect through 2027. Accordingly, M&T's SCB remains 2.7%. The regulatory capital ratios of the Company and its bank subsidiaries, M&T Bank and Wilmington Trust, N.A., as of September 30, 2026 are presented in the accompanying table.

As a result of the accounting election on January 1, 2026 to prospectively measure residential mortgage loan servicing right assets at fair value, the Company recorded an increase in capitalized servicing assets included in accrued interest and other assets of $263 million and a corresponding after-tax increase to retained earnings of $197 million, representing an 8 basis-point increase to the CET1 capital ratio on the election date.
Capital Rules generally require the deduction of goodwill and core deposit and other intangible assets, net of applicable deferred taxes, from the calculation of capital in the determination of the minimum capital ratios. As a result of previous business acquisitions, the Company recorded goodwill of $8.5 billion and core deposit and other intangible assets of $41 million at September 30, 2026. Goodwill, as required by GAAP, is not amortized, but rather is tested for impairment at least annually at the business reporting unit level. The Company completed its annual goodwill impairment test in the fourth quarter of 2025 and concluded the amount of goodwill was not impaired at the testing date. The Company has not identified events or circumstances that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a business reporting unit below its carrying amount at September 30, 2026. Should a business reporting unit with assigned goodwill experience declines in revenue, increased credit losses or expenses, or other adverse developments due to economic, regulatory, competition or other factors, that would be material to that reporting unit, an impairment of goodwill could occur in a future period that could be material to the Company's Consolidated

Balance Sheet and its Consolidated Statement of Income. Although a goodwill impairment charge would not have a significant impact on the Company's regulatory tangible capital ratios, it would reduce the capacity of its bank subsidiary, M&T Bank, to dividend earnings to M&T. As described herein under the heading "Liquidity Risk," M&T's parent company liquidity at September 30, 2026, inclusive of the projected repayment of notes receivables from bank subsidiaries, covered projected cash outflows for 27 months, including dividends on common and preferred stock, debt service and scheduled debt maturities.
The Company is subject to the comprehensive regulatory framework applicable to bank and financial holding companies and their subsidiaries, which includes examinations by a number of regulators. Regulation of financial institutions such as M&T and its subsidiaries is intended primarily for the protection of depositors, the Deposit Insurance Fund of the FDIC and the banking and financial system as a whole, and generally is not intended for the protection of shareholders, investors or creditors other than insured depositors. Changes in laws, regulations and regulatory policies applicable to the Company's operations can increase or decrease the cost of doing business, limit or expand permissible activities or affect the competitive environment in which the Company operates, all of which could have a material effect on the business, financial condition or results of operations of the Company and on M&T's ability to pay dividends. For additional information concerning this comprehensive regulatory framework, refer to Part I, Item 1, "Supervision and Regulation of the Company" of M&T's 2025 Annual Report.
As described in Part I, Item 1, "Capital Requirements" of M&T's 2025 Annual Report, in July 2023 the federal banking agencies issued a notice of proposed rulemaking to modify the regulatory capital requirements applicable to large banking organizations with total assets exceeding $100 billion, like the Company. In March 2026, the federal banking agencies issued a reproposal of those requirements. Under the reproposed requirements, the Company would have the option of calculating its RWA using either a standardized approach or an ERBA. The reproposal would also require the Company to include certain components of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in its calculation of capital over a five-year transition period. Management continues to evaluate the impact of the reproposed rules on the regulatory capital requirements of M&T and its subsidiary banks. The Company estimates that its CET1 capital ratio of 10.19% at June 30, 2026 would have increased approximately 90 basis points under the standardized approach and an additional 10 to 20 basis points under the ERBA, excluding the impact of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). At September 30, 2026, the inclusion of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) components related to investment securities available for sale and defined benefit plan liability adjustments would have decreased the Company's CET1 capital ratio by 29 basis points.

All Other
The "All Other" category reflects other activities of the Company that are not directly attributable to the reported segments. Reflected in this category are the difference between the provision for credit losses and the calculated provision allocated to the reportable segments; goodwill and core deposit and other intangible assets resulting from the acquisitions of financial institutions; merger-related gains and expenses related to acquisitions; the net impact of the Company's internal funds transfer pricing methodology; eliminations of transactions between reportable segments; certain non-recurring transactions; and the residual effects of unallocated support systems and general and administrative expenses. The Company's investment securities portfolio, certain brokered deposits and short-term and long-term borrowings are generally included in the "All Other" category. In its management of interest rate risk, the Company utilizes interest rate swap agreements to modify the repricing characteristics of certain portfolios of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The results of such activities are captured in the "All Other" category.

Critical Accounting Estimates and Recent Accounting Developments
A discussion of the Company's critical accounting estimates and significant accounting policies can be found in M&T's 2025 Annual Report. A summary of recent accounting developments is included in note 1 of Notes to Financial Statements, including the Company's election on January 1, 2026 to prospectively measure its residential mortgage loan servicing right assets at fair value, which the Company considers to be a critical accounting estimate. As residential mortgage loan servicing rights generally do not trade in an active market, the Company utilizes a model to estimate fair value which considers the present value of expected future cash flows associated with servicing rights using assumptions that market participants would consider in estimating future servicing income and expenses. Such assumptions include prepayment speeds, servicing costs, loan default rates and an appropriate discount rate representing an OAS over market implied forward SOFR. Significant assumptions and the resulting fair values are subject to independent review and challenge by the Company's Treasury Product Control Department through comparisons to available data including recent market activity, independent third-party valuations and industry trade information and surveys. The results of such independent review and challenge are reported to the Company's Executive ALCO Committee. Further information on the fair value of residential mortgage loan servicing right assets and the sensitivity of such value to changes in assumptions is included in note 13 of Notes to Financial Statements.
Forward-Looking Statements
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and other sections of this quarterly report contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and the rules and regulations of the SEC. Any statement that does not describe historical or current facts is a forward-looking statement, including statements based on current expectations, estimates and projections about the Company's business, and management's beliefs and assumptions.
Statements regarding the potential effects of events or factors specific to the Company and/or the financial industry as a whole, as well as national and global events generally, on the Company's business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations may constitute forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to the risk that the actual effects may differ, possibly materially, from what is reflected in those forward-looking statements due to factors and future developments that are uncertain, unpredictable and in many cases beyond the Company's control.
Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "target," "estimate," "continue," or "potential," by future conditional verbs such as "will," "would," "should," "could," or "may," or by variations of such words or by similar expressions. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions which are difficult to predict and may cause actual outcomes to differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted.
- 89 -
While there can be no assurance that any list of risks and uncertainties is complete, important factors that could cause actual outcomes and results to differ materially from those contemplated by forward-looking statements include the following, without limitation, as well as risks more fully discussed in Part I, Item 1A "Risk Factors" in the Company's 2025 Annual Report: economic conditions and growth rates, including inflation and market volatility; events, developments, and current conditions in the financial services industry, including trust, brokerage and investment management businesses; changes in interest rates, spreads on earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, and interest rate sensitivity; prepayment speeds, loan originations, loan concentrations by type and industry, credit losses and market values on loans, collateral securing loans, and other assets; sources of liquidity; levels of client deposits; ability to contain costs and expenses; changes in the Company's credit ratings; domestic or international political developments and other geopolitical events, including trade and tariff policies and international conflicts and hostilities; changes and trends in the securities markets; common shares outstanding and common stock price volatility; fair value of and number of stock-based compensation awards to be issued in future periods; the impact of changes in market values on trust-, brokerage-, and investment management-related revenues; federal, state or local legislation and/or regulations affecting the financial services industry, or M&T and its subsidiaries individually or collectively, including tax policy; regulatory supervision and oversight, including monetary policy and capital requirements; governmental and public policy changes; political conditions, either nationally or in the states in which M&T and its subsidiaries do business; the initiation and outcome of potential, pending and future litigation, investigations and governmental proceedings, including tax-related examinations and other matters; operational risk events, including loss resulting from fraud by employees or persons outside M&T and breaches in data and cybersecurity; changes in accounting policies or procedures as may be required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, regulatory agencies or legislation; increasing price, product and service competition by competitors, including new entrants; technological developments and changes; the ability to continue to introduce competitive new products and services on a timely, cost-effective basis; the mix of products and services; protection and validity of intellectual property rights; reliance on large customers; technological, implementation and cost/financial risks in large, multi-year contracts; continued availability of financing; financial resources in the amounts, at the times and on the terms required to support M&T and its subsidiaries' future businesses; and material differences in the actual financial results of merger, acquisition, divestment and investment activities compared with M&T's initial expectations, including the full realization of anticipated cost savings and revenue enhancements.
These are representative of the factors that could affect the outcome of the forward-looking statements. In addition, as noted, such statements could be affected by general industry and market conditions and growth rates, general economic and political conditions, either nationally or in the states in which the Company does business, and other factors.
The Company provides further detail regarding these risks and uncertainties in its 2025 Annual Report, including in the Risk Factors section of such report, as well as in other SEC filings. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and the Company assumes no duty and does not undertake to update forward-looking statements.
