From Bill Demchak, PNC Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer:

"In the third quarter PNC delivered solid financial results reflecting revenue growth and strong credit quality performance. While average loans increased due to the full quarter benefit of BBVA USA, period-end loans decreased modestly due to Paycheck Protection Program loan forgiveness activity. Importantly, we have completed the conversion of BBVA USA, providing all existing and new PNC customers with access to our coast-to-coast franchise. With the significant expansion of our footprint and the continued execution of our strategic priorities, we see substantial opportunities to leverage our best-in-class products and services, and deliver enhanced shareholder value for years to come."

PNC maintained a strong capital position. Common shareholders’ equity at September 30, 2021 increased $0.2 billion from June 30, 2021 as third quarter net income was substantially offset by dividends, share repurchases and lower accumulated other comprehensive income reflecting the impact of higher rates on net unrealized securities gains.

In the third quarter of 2021, PNC returned $0.9 billion of capital to shareholders through $0.5 billion of dividends on common shares and $0.4 billion of common share repurchases representing 2.1 million shares. Repurchases were made under the share repurchase programs of up to $2.9 billion for the four-quarter period beginning in the third quarter of 2021.

On October 1, 2021, the PNC board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend on common stock of $1.25 per share payable on November 5, 2021.

For information regarding PNC's Basel III capital ratios, see Capital Ratios in the Consolidated Financial Highlights. PNC elected a five-year transition provision effective March 31, 2020 to delay for two years the full impact of the Current Expected Credit Losses (CECL) standard on regulatory capital, followed by a three-year transition period.

The third quarter of 2021 included a provision recapture of $203 million, reflecting continued improvements in credit quality and changes in portfolio composition. The second quarter included a provision for credit losses of $302 million, primarily driven by the establishment of an initial provision for credit losses related to the BBVA USA acquisition.

Net loan charge-offs were $81 million in the third quarter of 2021, decreasing $225 million and $74 million from the second quarter of 2021 and third quarter of 2020, respectively. The second quarter of 2021 included net loan charge-offs of $248 million primarily related to the purchase

accounting treatment for certain loans that were previously charged-off by BBVA USA. For the third quarter of 2021, commercial and consumer net loan charge-offs were $21 million and $60 million, respectively.

The allowance for credit losses was $6.0 billion at September 30, 2021 and $6.4 billion at both June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020. The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of total loans was 2.07% at September 30, 2021, 2.16% at June 30, 2021 and 2.58% at September 30, 2020.

Nonperforming loans at September 30, 2021 of $2.5 billion decreased $251 million compared to June 30, 2021, primarily due to lower nonperforming loans in the commercial real estate and commercial and industrial portfolios. Nonperforming loans increased $443 million compared to September 30, 2020, primarily due to nonperforming loans acquired in the BBVA USA acquisition.

Overall delinquencies at September 30, 2021 of $1.4 billion, increased $106 million compared to June 30, 2021 and $158 million compared to September 30, 2020. In both comparisons, the increase was largely due to commercial loans past due 30 to 59 days primarily reflecting operational delays. Under the CARES Act credit reporting rules and guidance from regulatory agencies, certain loans modified due to pandemic-related hardships were considered current during their modification period and not reported as past due.

(a)Net interest margin is the total yield on interest-earning assets minus the total rate on interest-bearing liabilities and includes the benefit from use of noninterest-bearing sources. To provide more meaningful comparisons of net interest margins, we use net interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis in calculating average yields used in the calculation of net interest margin by increasing the interest income earned on tax-exempt assets to make it fully equivalent to interest income earned on taxable investments. This adjustment is not permitted under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the Consolidated Income Statement. The taxable-equivalent adjustments to net interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2021, June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020 were $22 million, $15 million and $17 million, respectively. The taxable equivalent adjustments to net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020 were $52 million and $58 million, respectively.

(b)Calculated as noninterest expense divided by total revenue.

(c)Our business information is presented based on our internal management reporting practices. Net interest income in business segment results reflect PNC's internal funds transfer pricing methodology. Assets receive a funding charge and liabilities and capital receive a funding credit based on a transfer pricing methodology that incorporates product repricing characteristics, tenor and other factors.

(d)Includes earnings and gains or losses related to residual activities that do not meet the criteria for disclosure as a separate reportable business. We provide additional information on these activities in our Form 10-K and Form 10-Q filings with the SEC.

CAPITAL RATIOS

As of January 1, 2020, the 2019 Tailoring Rules became effective for PNC. The most significant changes involve PNC's election to exclude specific accumulated other comprehensive income items from common equity Tier 1 capital and higher thresholds used to calculate common equity Tier 1 capital deductions. Effective January 1, 2020, PNC must deduct from common equity Tier 1 capital investments in unconsolidated financial institutions, mortgage servicing rights and deferred tax assets (in each case, net of associated deferred tax liabilities) to the extent such items individually exceed 25% of the institution's adjusted common equity Tier 1 capital.

PNC's regulatory risk-based capital ratios in 2021 are calculated using the standardized approach for determining risk-weighted assets. Under the standardized approach for determining credit risk-weighted assets, exposures are generally assigned a pre-defined risk weight. Exposures to high volatility commercial real estate, past due exposures and equity exposures are generally subject to higher risk weights than other types of exposures.

During 2020, regulators adopted a final rule permitting banks that have adopted the CECL standard to delay for two years CECL's full impact on regulatory capital, relative to the incurred loss methodology's impact on regulatory capital, followed by a three year transition period. PNC elected to adopt this optional five-year transition provision effective as of March 31, 2020. See the table below for the June 30, 2021, September 30, 2020 and estimated September 30, 2021 ratios. For the full impact of PNC's adoption of CECL, which excludes the benefits of the five-year transition provision, see the September 30, 2021 and June 30, 2021 (Fully Implemented) estimates presented in the table below.

Our Basel III capital ratios may be impacted by changes to the regulatory capital rules and additional regulatory guidance or analysis.

NON-GAAP MEASURES

Pretax Pre-Provision Earnings (non-GAAP) Pretax Pre-Provision Earnings Excluding Integration Costs (non-GAAP)
	September 30		June 30		September 30
Dollars in millions	2021		2021		2020
Income from continuing operations before income taxes and noncontrolling interests	$	1,813	$	1,315	$	1,698
Provision for (recapture of) credit losses (a)	(203)		302		52
Pretax pre-provision earnings (non-GAAP)	$	1,610	$	1,617	$	1,750
Integration costs	243		111		NA
Pretax pre-provision earnings excluding integration costs (non-GAAP)	$	1,853	$	1,728	NA

(a)Provision for (recapture of) credit losses for the three months ended June 30, 2021 includes a $1.0 billion initial provision for credit losses related to BBVA USA.

Pretax pre-provision earnings is a non-GAAP measure and is based on adjusting income from continuing operations before income taxes and noncontrolling interests to exclude provision for (recapture of) credit losses. We believe that pretax, pre-provision earnings is a useful tool to help evaluate the ability to provide for credit costs through operations and provides an additional basis to compare results between periods by isolating the impact of provision for (recapture of) credit losses, which can vary significantly between periods.

Pretax pre-provision earnings excluding integration costs is a non-GAAP measure and is based on adjusting pretax pre-provision earnings to exclude integration costs during the period. We believe that pretax, pre-provision earnings excluding integration costs is a useful tool in understanding PNC's results by providing greater comparability between periods, as well as demonstrating the effect of significant items.

Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Common Share Excluding Integration Costs (non-GAAP)
	September 30		Per Common Share		June 30		Per Common Share
Dollars in millions, except per share data	2021				2021
Net income attributable to diluted common shareholders	$	1,408	$	3.30	$	1,037	$	2.43
Integration costs after tax (a)	192		0.45		88		0.21
Adjusted net income attributable to diluted common shareholders excluding integration costs (non-GAAP)	$	1,600	$	3.75	$	1,125	$	2.64
Average diluted common shares outstanding (in millions)	426				427

(a)Statutory tax rate of 21% used to calculate impacts.

The adjusted diluted earnings per common share excluding integration costs is a non-GAAP measure and excludes the integration costs related to the BBVA USA acquisition. It is calculated based on adjusting net income attributable to diluted common shareholders by removing post-tax integration costs in the period. This non-GAAP measure was updated from the Q2 2021 earnings release to only adjust for integration costs to provide for a better quarter-over-quarter comparison as Q2 2021 included a significant initial provision for credit losses for BBVA USA that will not be taken in future quarters. We believe this non-GAAP measure serves as a useful tool in understanding PNC's results by providing greater comparability between periods, as well as demonstrating the effect of significant items.

Tangible Book Value per Common Share (non-GAAP)
	September 30		June 30		September 30
Dollars in millions, except per share data	2021		2021		2020
Book value per common share	$	121.16	$	120.25	$	117.44
Tangible book value per common share
Common shareholders' equity	$	51,250	$	51,107	$	49,760
Goodwill and other intangible assets	(11,419)		(11,515)		(9,396)
Deferred tax liabilities on goodwill and other intangible assets	277		284		187
Tangible common shareholders' equity	$	40,108	$	39,876	$	40,551
Period-end common shares outstanding (in millions)	423		425		424
Tangible book value per common share (non-GAAP)	$	94.82	$	93.83	$	95.71

Tangible book value per common share is a non-GAAP measure and is calculated based on tangible common shareholders' equity divided by period-end common shares outstanding. We believe this non-GAAP measure serves as a useful tool to help evaluate the strength and discipline of a company's capital management strategies and as an additional, conservative measure of total company value.

Taxable-Equivalent Net Interest Income (non-GAAP)
	September 30		June 30		September 30
Dollars in millions	2021		2021		2020
Net interest income	$	2,856	$	2,581	$	2,484
Taxable-equivalent adjustments	22		15		17
Net interest income (Fully Taxable-Equivalent - FTE)	$	2,878	$	2,596	$	2,501

The interest income earned on certain earning assets is completely or partially exempt from federal income tax. As such, these tax-exempt instruments typically yield lower returns than taxable investments. To provide more meaningful comparisons of net interest income, we use interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis by increasing the interest income earned on tax-exempt assets to make it fully equivalent to interest income earned on taxable investments. This adjustment is not permitted under GAAP. Taxable equivalent net interest income is only used for calculating net interest margin and net interest income shown elsewhere in this presentation is GAAP net interest income.

Efficiency Ratio Excluding Integration Costs (non-GAAP)
	September 30			June 30
Dollars in millions	2021			2021
Noninterest expense	$	3,587		$	3,050
Integration expense	(235)			(101)
Noninterest expense excluding integration expense (non-GAAP)	$	3,352		$	2,949
Total revenue	$	5,197		$	4,667
Integration costs - contra revenue	(8)			(10)
Total revenue excluding integration costs - contra revenue (non-GAAP)	$	5,205		$	4,677
Efficiency ratio (a)	69		%	65		%
Efficiency ratio excluding integration costs (non-GAAP) (b)	64		%	63		%

(a)Calculated as noninterest expense divided by total revenue.

(b)Calculated as noninterest expense excluding integration expense divided by total revenue excluding integration costs - contra revenue.

The efficiency ratio excluding integration costs is a non-GAAP measure and excludes the integration costs related to the BBVA USA acquisition. It is calculated based on adjusting the efficiency ratio calculation by excluding integration costs during the period from noninterest expense and total revenue. We believe that this non-GAAP measure is a useful tool for the purpose of evaluating PNC's results. The exclusion of integration costs increases comparability across periods, demonstrates the impact of significant items and provides a useful measure for determining PNC's revenue and expenses that are core to our business operations and expected to recur over time.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information

We make statements in this news release and related conference call, and we may from time to time make other statements, regarding our outlook for financial performance, such as earnings, revenues, expenses, tax rates, capital and liquidity levels and ratios, asset levels, asset quality, financial position, and other matters regarding or affecting us and our future business and operations that are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as “believe,” “plan,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “see,” “look,” “intend,” “outlook,” “project,” “forecast,” “estimate,” “goal,” “will,” “should” and other similar words and expressions.

Forward-looking statements are necessarily subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties, which change over time. Future events or circumstances may change our outlook and may also affect the nature of the assumptions, risks and uncertainties to which our forward-looking statements are subject. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date made. We do not assume any duty and do not undertake any obligation to update forward-looking statements. Actual results or future events could differ, possibly materially, from those anticipated in forward-looking statements, as well as from historical performance. As a result, we caution against placing undue reliance on any forward-looking statements.

Our forward-looking statements are subject to the following principal risks and uncertainties.

▪Our businesses, financial results and balance sheet values are affected by business and economic conditions, including:

–Changes in interest rates and valuations in debt, equity and other financial markets,

–Disruptions in the U.S. and global financial markets,

–Actions by the Federal Reserve Board, U.S. Treasury and other government agencies, including those that impact money supply, market interest rates and inflation,

–Changes in customer behavior due to changing business and economic conditions or legislative or regulatory initiatives,

–Changes in customers’, suppliers’ and other counterparties’ performance and creditworthiness,

–Impacts of tariffs and other trade policies of the U.S. and its global trading partners,

–The length and extent of the economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic,

–The impact of the results of the 2020 U.S. elections, including on the regulatory landscape, capital markets, tax policy, infrastructure spending and social programs, and

–Commodity price volatility.

▪Our forward-looking financial statements are subject to the risk that economic and financial market conditions will be substantially different than those we are currently expecting and do not take into account potential legal and regulatory contingencies. These statements are based on our view that:

–The U.S. economy is in an economic recovery, following a very severe but very short economic contraction in the first half of 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic and public health measures to contain it.

–With the passage of the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 and continued vaccine distribution, economic growth picked up in the first half of 2021, and real GDP returned to its pre-pandemic level in the second quarter of 2021. The Delta variant and supply chain difficulties have been drags on growth in the second half of 2021, although the economy continues to expand. Growth will pick up at the end of 2021 as the impact of the Delta variant fades and supply chains normalize and will remain solid into 2022. Employment in September 2021 was still down by almost 5 million from before the pandemic; PNC expects employment to return to its pre-pandemic level in mid-2022.

–Compared to the spring of 2020 (when prices were falling), inflation accelerated in mid-2021 due to strong demand in specific segments and supply chain disruptions. Inflation has started to slow on a month-over-month basis but will remain elevated in the near term.

–PNC expects the Federal Open Market Committee to keep the fed funds rate in its current range of 0.00 to 0.25 percent until mid-2023.

▪PNC’s ability to take certain capital actions, including returning capital to shareholders, is subject to PNC meeting or exceeding a stress capital buffer established by the Federal Reserve Board in connection with the Federal Reserve Board’s Comprehensive Capital Analysis and Review (CCAR) process.

▪PNC’s regulatory capital ratios in the future will depend on, among other things, the company’s financial performance, the scope and terms of final capital regulations then in effect and management actions affecting the composition of PNC’s balance sheet. In addition, PNC’s ability to determine, evaluate and forecast regulatory capital ratios, and to take actions (such as capital distributions) based on actual or forecasted capital ratios, will be dependent at least in part on the development, validation and regulatory review of related models.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information (Continued)

▪Legal and regulatory developments could have an impact on our ability to operate our businesses, financial condition, results of operations, competitive position, reputation, or pursuit of attractive acquisition opportunities. Reputational impacts could affect matters such as business generation and retention, liquidity, funding, and ability to attract and retain management. These developments could include:

–Changes to laws and regulations, including changes affecting oversight of the financial services industry, consumer protection, bank capital and liquidity standards, pension, bankruptcy and other industry aspects, and changes in accounting policies and principles.

–Unfavorable resolution of legal proceedings or other claims and regulatory and other governmental investigations or other inquiries. These matters may result in monetary judgments or settlements or other remedies, including fines, penalties, restitution or alterations in our business practices, and in additional expenses and collateral costs, and may cause reputational harm to PNC.

–Results of the regulatory examination and supervision process, including our failure to satisfy requirements of agreements with governmental agencies.

–Impact on business and operating results of any costs associated with obtaining rights in intellectual property claimed by others and of adequacy of our intellectual property protection in general.

▪Business and operating results are affected by our ability to identify and effectively manage risks inherent in our businesses, including, where appropriate, through effective use of systems and controls, third-party insurance, derivatives, and capital management techniques, and to meet evolving regulatory capital and liquidity standards.

▪Our acquisition of BBVA USA Bancshares, Inc. presents us with risks and uncertainties related to the integration of the acquired business into PNC including:

–The business of BBVA USA Bancshares, Inc., including its U.S. banking subsidiary, BBVA USA, going forward may not perform as we currently project or in a manner consistent with historical performance. As a result, the anticipated benefits, including estimated cost savings, of the transaction may be significantly more difficult or take longer to achieve than expected or may not be achieved in their entirety as a result of unexpected factors or events, including those that are outside of our control.

–The integration of BBVA USA Bancshares, Inc., including its U.S. banking subsidiary, BBVA USA, with that of PNC and PNC Bank may be more difficult to achieve than anticipated or have unanticipated adverse results relating to BBVA USA Bancshares, Inc., including its U.S. banking subsidiary, BBVA USA, or our existing businesses. Our ability to integrate BBVA USA Bancshares, Inc., including its U.S. banking subsidiary, BBVA USA, successfully may be adversely affected by the fact that this transaction results in us entering several geographic markets where we did not previously have any meaningful presence.

▪In addition to the BBVA USA Bancshares, Inc. transaction, we grow our business in part through acquisitions and new strategic initiatives. Risks and uncertainties include those presented by the nature of the business acquired and strategic initiative, including in some cases those associated with our entry into new businesses or new geographic or other markets and risks resulting from our inexperience in those new areas, as well as risks and uncertainties related to the acquisition transactions themselves, regulatory issues, and the integration of the acquired businesses into PNC after closing.

▪Competition can have an impact on customer acquisition, growth and retention and on credit spreads and product pricing, which can affect market share, deposits and revenues. Our ability to anticipate and respond to technological changes can also impact our ability to respond to customer needs and meet competitive demands.

▪Business and operating results can also be affected by widespread natural and other disasters, pandemics, dislocations, terrorist activities, system failures, security breaches, cyberattacks or international hostilities through impacts on the economy and financial markets generally or on us or our counterparties specifically.

We provide greater detail regarding these as well as other factors in our 2020 Form 10-K and in our subsequent Form 10-Qs, including in the Risk Factors and Risk Management sections and the Legal Proceedings and Commitments Notes of the Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements in those reports, and in our other subsequent SEC filings. Our forward-looking statements may also be subject to other risks and uncertainties, including those we may discuss elsewhere in this news release or in our SEC filings, accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov and on our corporate website at www.pnc.com/secfilings. We have included these web addresses as inactive textual references only. Information on these websites is not part of this document.
