SECOND QUARTER 2022 NET INCOME OF $261 MILLION, $1.92 PER SHARE
Earnings Per Share Increased 40% Over First Quarter 2022
Strong Revenue Growth, Solid Expense Control and Excellent Credit Quality
Benefits from Higher Interest Rates, Strong Loan Growth and Liquidity Deployment
ROE of 17% and Efficiency Ratio of 58%
"Our second quarter earnings per share increased 40% over the first quarter and revenue grew 18%,” said Curt C. Farmer, Comerica Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “These results reflect the rising rate environment, including prudent actions taken to lock in higher rates. In addition, loan growth in the second quarter was one of the highest in our history, with increases in nearly every business line. Credit quality was excellent and fee income increased 10%. Higher revenue, combined with careful expense management as we continue to invest in our colleagues and platforms, resulted in a significant improvement in our efficiency ratio to 58%. Overall, it was a strong quarter with a return on equity of 17%. While there is a great deal of economic uncertainty, we feel positive about the path we are on."

Credit Quality
"Credit quality remained excellent in the second quarter with no net charge-offs and declines in criticized and nonaccrual loans,” said Farmer. “Strong credit metrics, loan growth and economic uncertainty resulted in a relatively stable allowance for credit losses at 1.18% of loans and a provision of only $10 million. The allowance to nonaccrual loans remained strong at 2.3 times. Overall, our customers have been able to manage through the challenging environment, while performing well and maintaining strong balance sheets."

RECONCILIATIONS OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES AND REGULATORY RATIOS (unaudited)
Comerica Incorporated and Subsidiaries |  |  |  |

Comerica believes non-GAAP measures are meaningful because they reflect adjustments commonly made by management, investors, regulators and analysts to evaluate the adequacy of common equity and our performance trends. Tangible common equity is used by Comerica to measure the quality of capital and the return relative to balance sheet risk.
Common equity tier 1 capital ratio removes preferred stock from the Tier 1 capital ratio as defined by and calculated in conformity with bank regulations. The tangible common equity ratio removes the effect of intangible assets from capital and total assets. Tangible common equity per share of common stock removes the effect of intangible assets from common shareholders' equity per share of common stock. Comerica believes that the presentation of tangible common equity adjusted for the impact of accumulated other comprehensive loss provides a greater understanding of ongoing operations and enhances comparability with prior periods.
