US Bancorp, the parent company of IBOS member US Bank, has reported a record net revenue of $5,920 million, net income of $1,908 million and diluted earnings per share of $1.15.
The net income attributable to US Bancorp was $1,908 million for Q3 2019, which was 5.1% higher than Q3 2018, and 4.8% higher than Q2 2019.
The increase in net income year-over-year was driven by total net revenue growth of 3.9% partially offset by noninterest expense growth of 3.3%. Net interest income increased 0.9% (0.8% on a taxable-equivalent basis), mainly a result of loan growth and higher yields on reinvestment of securities, partially offset by the yield curve and deposit and funding mix. Noninterest income increased 8.1% compared with a year ago, driven by growth in payment services revenue, commercial products revenue, mortgage banking revenue and other noninterest income, partially offset by a decline in deposit service charges. Noninterest expense increased 3.3% primarily due to higher personnel expense, in part due to higher fee revenue production in mortgage and capital market activities, and higher technology investment costs in support of business growth.
