First Horizon's 2024 Capital Stress Test Shows Strong Resilience With CET1 Ratio At 9.5%, 500 BPS Above Regulatory Minimum; Reflects Diversified Loan Portfolio And Strong Risk Culture

Comerica Incorporated (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/cma#NYSE">CMA</a>) reported second-quarter 2024 adjusted earnings per share of $1.53, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.19. However, the bottom line plunged 25.4% from the prior-year quarter.
Results benefited from increased loan demand and a strong capital position. Nil provisions recorded in the quarter were another supporting factor. However, a decline in net interest and fee income, along with increased expenses, was a major headwind. Probably due to these negative aspects, shares of the company lost more than 12% following the earnings release.
Net income attributable to common shareholders was $200 million, down 24.8% from the year-ago quarter.
<h3>Revenues Decline, Expenses Rise</h3>
Total quarterly revenues were $824 million, down 10.8% year over year. However, the top line surpassed the consensus estimate of $812.8 million.
Quarterly net interest income (NII) fell 14.2% on a year-over-year basis to $533 million. The net interest margin contracted 9 basis points year over year to 2.86%.
Total non-interest income was $291 million, down 4% on a year-over-year basis. The decrease was primarily due to a decline in card fees, fiduciary income, and other non-interest income.
Non-interest expenses totaled $555 million, up 3.7% year over year. An increase in salaries and benefits expenses, as well as FDIC insurance expenses, majorly led to the rise.
The efficiency ratio was 67.77% compared with the prior-year quarter&#39;s 57.50%. A rise in this ratio indicates lower profitability.
As of Jun 30, 2024, Total loans increased 2% on a sequential basis to $51.9 billion. However, total deposits decreased 1.8% from the previous quarter to $62.5 billion.
<h3>Credit Quality: Mixed Bag</h3>
The company did not record any provision for credit loss in the reported quarter compared with the year-ago quarter&#39;s provision for credit loss of $33 million.
The allowance for credit losses was $717 million, down 1.5% from the year-ago quarter.
Total non-performing assets increased 21.5% year over to $226 million.
Further, the allowance for credit losses to total loans ratio was 1.38% as of Jun 30, 2024, up from 1.31% as of Jun 30, 2023. Also, the company recorded net charge-offs of $11 million for the quarter under review.
<h3>Capital Position Improves</h3>
Total capital ratio was 14.02%, up from 12.79% reported in the year-ago quarter. The Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio was 11.55%, up from 10.31% in the prior-year quarter.
Further, as of Jun 30, 2024, CMA&#39;s tangible common equity ratio was 6.49%, up from 5.06% in the prior-year quarter.
<h3>Our Viewpoint</h3>
The company&#39;s solid capital position will aid capital distribution activities in the upcoming period, boosting investors&#39; confidence in the stock. Also, an increase in loan balance and nil provisions is likely to support its financials. However, steadily mounting operating expenses and lower revenues remain a major concern.
