Fifth Third Bancorp reported a net income of $530 million for Q4 2023, with diluted earnings per share of $0.72. The results reflect a decrease compared to the previous quarter and year-ago quarter, impacted by certain items including an FDIC special assessment. However, the company saw growth in average deposits and CET1 capital.
Average deposits increased 2% compared to the previous quarter and 5% compared to the year-ago quarter.
CET1 capital increased 49 bps sequentially to 10.29%, driven by strong earnings and balance sheet optimization.
Net charge-off ratio declined 9 bps compared to the prior quarter.
Opened 19 branches during the quarter, with 18 in high-growth Southeast markets, and generated consumer household growth of 3% compared to the prior year.
While the economic and regulatory environments remain uncertain, Fifth Third remains well positioned to navigate potential economic and regulatory outcomes, focusing on stability, profitability, and growth.
