<p class="has-drop-cap">Truist Financial Corporation (TFC) reported its <a href="https://ir.truist.com/earnings" target="_blank" aria-label="second-quarter 2024 financial results (opens in a new tab)" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" class="deco-link">second-quarter 2024 financial results</a>, showcasing a mixed performance. <br><br>The company recorded a net income available to common shareholders of $826 million, translating to $0.62 per diluted share. On an adjusted basis, net income stood at $1.2 billion or $0.91 per share. This quarter’s results were significantly influenced by a strategic balance sheet repositioning and the <a href="https://media.truist.com/2024-05-07-Truist-completes-sale-of-Truist-Insurance-Holdings-and-executes-strategic-balance-sheet-repositioning" target="_blank" aria-label="sale  (opens in a new tab)" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" class="deco-link">sale </a>of Truist Insurance Holdings (TIH).</p>
<p>Net interest income increased by 4.5% from the previous quarter, totaling $3.58 billion. This boost was attributed to higher rates on earning assets and the proceeds from the sale of TIH. <br><br>However, Truist’s noninterest income saw a sharp decline, primarily due to $6.7 billion in securities losses stemming from the balance sheet repositioning. Adjusted noninterest income remained flat compared to the prior quarter, with notable increases in mortgage banking income and other income, offset by declines in investment banking and trading income.</p>
<h3 id="truist-reports-1-63-billion-loss-in-second-quarter-adjusted-eps-beats-forecast">Truist Reports $1.63 Billion Loss in Second Quarter, Adjusted EPS Beats Forecast</h3>
<p>Truist’s actual performance fell short of market expectations. Analysts had projected an earnings per share (<a href="https://tokenist.com/investing/how-to-value-a-stock/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" class="deco-link">EPS</a>) of $0.65 and revenue of $4.78 billion for the quarter. <br><br>The reported EPS of $0.62 missed the mark slightly, while the total revenue of -$1.63 billion was a stark contrast to the anticipated figure, primarily due to the substantial securities losses. Despite the shortfall in headline numbers, adjusted metrics painted a more stable picture. <br><br>Adjusted diluted EPS was $0.91, slightly above the previous quarter’s $0.90, indicating a consistent underlying performance when excluding one-time items.</p>
<p>The company’s net interest margin (NIM) improved to 3.03%, up from 2.89% in the first quarter and 2.90% in the same quarter last year. This improvement was driven by higher yields on earning assets, despite a decrease in average earning assets by $2.4 billion. Noninterest expenses increased by 4.8% quarter-over-quarter, with adjusted noninterest expenses rising by 2.6%, reflecting higher personnel and professional fees.</p>

<h3 id="truist-announces-5-billion-buyback-program">Truist Announces $5 Billion Buyback Program</h3>
<p>Looking forward, Truist has provided a cautious yet optimistic outlook. The company has announced a <a href="https://tokenist.com/investing/what-is-a-stock-buyback/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" class="deco-link">share repurchase program</a> of up to $5 billion through 2026, with buybacks expected to commence in the third quarter of 2024.</p>
<p>The Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) ratio significantly improved to 11.6%, up from 10.1% in the previous quarter, bolstered by the sale of TIH.CEO Bill Rogers emphasized the company’s focus on core banking operations and expense management. <br><br>He noted that while loan demand remains muted, there has been an improvement in client engagement and a stabilization of deposits. The company’s asset quality metrics remain solid, with nonperforming assets stable and net charge-offs decreasing by six basis points to 0.58%. The liquidity coverage ratio stood at 110%, indicating robust liquidity levels.</p> <iframe src="https://tokenist.substack.com/embed" width="100%" height="320" style="border:1px solid #EEE; background:white;" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe>
