Key Changes
-
high
Share repurchases totaled $13.2B (251.9M shares) in the first half of 2026, up 35% from $9.8B (226.3M shares) in the first half of 2025, reflecting stronger capital generation.
-
high
Quarterly common dividend increased 14% to $0.32/share (declared July 2026) vs. 8% increase to $0.28/share (declared July 2025), reflecting stronger earnings and capital position.
-
high
Net interest yield on a fully taxable-equivalent basis rose 14 basis points to 2.08% in Q2 2026 from 1.94% in Q2 2025, driven by Global Markets activity, deposit and loan growth, and fixed-asset repricing, partially offset by lower interest rates.
Summary
Bank of America delivered strong Q2 2026 results, with net income rising 27% year-over-year to $9.1 billion ($1.21 diluted EPS) from $7.1 billion ($0.89) in Q2 2025.
The improvement was broad-based: net interest income grew $1.3 billion to $16.0 billion (yield up 14 basis points to 2.08%), noninterest income surged $2.8 billion to $15.6 billion, and the provision for credit losses declined $226 million to $1.4 billion.
The bank returned $13.2 billion to shareholders through buybacks in the first half of 2026 (up 35% from $9.8 billion in H1 2025) and raised the quarterly dividend 14% to $0.32 per share. The effective tax rate increased to 21.5% from 7.4% in the prior-year quarter, reflecting lower renewable energy tax credits and lower discrete tax benefits relative to pretax earnings. Total assets grew to $3.5 trillion, up $87.5 billion from December 2025, driven by Global Markets activity (repo, receivables) and commercial loan growth. The provision decline suggests improving credit quality, but any deterioration in consumer or commercial credit metrics would be an early warning. The higher tax rate is a structural headwind as renewable energy credits phase out, compressing net income growth relative to pretax earnings.

Climate risk is divided into two major categories, both of which span the seven key risk types discussed in Managing Risk on page 20: (1) Physical Risk: risks related to the physical impacts of climate change, driven by extreme weather events such as hurricanes and floods, as well as chronic longer-term shifts such as rising average global temperatures and sea levels, and (2) Transition Risk: risks related to the transition to a low-carbon economy, which may entail extensive policy, legal, technology and market changes. Physical risks of climate change, such as more frequent and severe extreme weather events, can increase the Corporation’s risks, including credit risk by diminishing borrowers’ repayment capacity or collateral values, and operational risk by negatively impacting the Corporation’s facilities, employees, or third parties. Transition risks of climate change may amplify credit risks through the financial impacts of changes in policy, technology or the market on the Corporation or our counterparties. Unanticipated market changes can lead to sudden price adjustments and give rise to heightened market risk. Our approach to managing climate risk is consistent with our risk management governance structure, from senior management to our Board and its committees, including the ERC and the Corporate Governance Committee (CGC) of the Board, which regularly discuss climate-related topics. The ERC oversees climate risk as set forth in our Risk Framework and Risk Appetite Statement. The CGC is responsible for overseeing the Corporation’s environmental sustainability-related activities and practices, and regularly reviews the Corporation’s related initiatives and policies. Our Climate Risk Council consists of leaders across risk, Front Line Unit (FLU) and control functions, and meets routinely to discuss our approach to managing climate-related risks. The Corporation has a Climate and Environmental Risk Management function that is responsible for overseeing climate risk management. They are responsible for establishing the Climate Risk Framework (described below) and governance structure, and providing an independent assessment of enterprise-wide climate risks. Based on the Corporation’s Risk Framework, we created our internal Climate Risk Framework, which addresses various global climate-related laws, rules, regulations and guidance. The framework describes how the Corporation identifies, measures, monitors and controls climate risk by enhancing existing risk management processes, includes examples of how climate risk manifests across the seven risk types, and details the roles and responsibilities for climate risk management across our three lines of defense (i.e., FLUs, Global Risk Management and Corporate Audit). For more information on our governance framework, see the Managing Risk section in the MD&A of the Corporation’s 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K. For more information on climate risk, see Item 1A. Risk Factors of the Corporation’s 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K. For more information on climate- and sustainability-related matters and their importance in supporting our customers and clients, see the Corporation’s website, including its 2024 Sustainability at Bank of America document. The contents of the Corporation’s website, including the 2024 Sustainability at Bank of America document, are not incorporated by reference into this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or the Corporation’s 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The Q2 2025 filing included a standalone Climate Risk section describing physical and transition risks, governance (ERC, CGC, Climate Risk Council), and the Climate Risk Framework. The Q2 2026 filing does not include this section. Climate risk is an ongoing condition; its removal from the MD&A is a material disclosure change, not a lifecycle removal. The filing does not explain the omission or state that climate risk is no longer material.

On July 4, 2025, the U.S. government enacted Public Law 119-21 (budget reconciliation legislation), which contains a number of tax-related as well as other legislative provisions. The tax changes include the eventual phase out of certain renewable energy tax credit programs and changes in U.S. taxation of non-U.S. income. The changes to the renewable energy programs do not impact the tax credits applicable to the Corporation’s existing renewable energy equity investments. See Note 6 – Securitizations and Other Variable Interest Entities for more information on these investments. The Corporation continues to evaluate the various tax-related provisions but does not expect them to have a significant impact on its results of operations. On June 28, 2025, the Group of Seven Countries reached an agreement that would exempt U.S. corporations from certain parts of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development Pillar II – Minimum Tax Framework (OECD Pillar II), which is not expected to have a significant impact on the Corporation’s results of operations. Further discussion and facilitation are expected among countries adopting OECD Pillar II.
The Q2 2025 filing disclosed July 2025 enactment of Public Law 119-21 (renewable energy tax credit phase-out, non-U.S. income tax changes) and June 2025 G7 agreement on OECD Pillar II exemption for U.S. corporations. The Q2 2026 filing does not repeat this disclosure. These were one-time legislative updates; their absence from the current filing is a lifecycle removal (the events are no longer current news), not a material change.

On June 27, 2025, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Federal Reserve) announced the results of the 2025 Comprehensive Capital Analysis and Review (CCAR) supervisory stress tests. Based on the results, under the current regulatory framework, our stress capital buffer (SCB) is expected to be 2.5 percent, and our Common equity tier 1 (CET1) minimum requirement is expected to be 10.0 percent, effective October 1, 2025. This requirement and its effective date may differ slightly if the Federal Reserve’s recent notice of proposed rulemaking (NPR) on SCB is finalized and applied to 2025 supervisory stress tests.
The Q2 2025 filing disclosed June 2025 CCAR results (SCB 2.5%, CET1 minimum 10.0%, effective Oct 2025). The Q2 2026 filing does not repeat this disclosure. CCAR results are announced annually; the absence of the 2025 results from the 2026 filing is a lifecycle removal (the 2025 results are no longer current news), not a material change. The 2026 CCAR results would be disclosed in the Q2 2026 filing if they had been announced by the filing date.

We completed our annual goodwill impairment test as of June 30, 2025 using a quantitative assessment for the Consumer Banking reporting unit and a qualitative assessment for the remaining six reporting units. The quantitative assessment was performed for Consumer Banking because the Corporation combined its Consumer Lending and Deposits reporting units into a single reporting unit to correspond with the change in reporting structure that occurred in the Consumer Banking segment in the first quarter of 2025. For the quantitative assessment, we compared the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value, as measured by allocated equity. The fair value was estimated based on the ... combination of an income approach (which utilizes the present value of cash flows to estimate fair value) and a market multiplier approach (which utilizes observable market prices and metrics of peer companies to estimate fair value). The cash flows used in the income approach were based on the Corporation’s three-year internal forecasts along with long-term terminal growth values, which were discounted at 10.50 percent. The discount rate was derived from a capital asset pricing model that incorporates the risk and uncertainty in the cash flow forecasts, the financial markets and industries similar to the reporting units. The market multiplier approach utilized various market multiples, primarily pricing multiples, from comparable publicly-traded companies in industries similar to the reporting unit. In addition, a control premium was factored in based upon observed comparable premiums paid for change-in-control transactions for financial institutions. For the qualitative assessment, we used various factors, including macroeconomic conditions and outlook, industry and market pricing multiples, financial performance and other relevant reporting unit considerations, to support that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting units is less than the reporting units’ carrying value. Based on our assessments, we have concluded that none of our reporting units are at risk of impairment, as each of the reporting units’ fair values are substantially in excess of their carrying values.

We completed our annual goodwill impairment test as of June 30, 2026 using a qualitative assessment. In performing the assessment, we considered various factors, including macroeconomic conditions and outlook, industry and market considerations, financial performance and other relevant reporting unit-specific factors. Based on this evaluation, we concluded that it was not more likely than not that the fair value of any reporting unit was less than its carrying value. Accordingly, no reporting unit was considered at risk of impairment, and no further testing was required.
The 2026 test used a qualitative assessment for all reporting units, whereas the 2025 test used a quantitative assessment for Consumer Banking (due to a Q1 2025 reporting-unit combination) and qualitative for the remaining six. The 2026 filing does not disclose the detailed quantitative methodology (income approach, market multiplier, 10.50% discount rate, control premium) that was described in 2025. Both years concluded no impairment risk. The shift to all-qualitative reflects management's judgment that the Consumer Banking combination is now seasoned and no quantitative test is required.

Current Accounting Developments
The heading changed from "Complex Accounting Estimates" (Q2 2025) to "Current Accounting Developments" (Q2 2026). The Q2 2026 section discusses a new accounting standard (internal-use software costs, effective Dec 2027) not yet adopted. The Q2 2025 section under "Complex Accounting Estimates" discussed goodwill impairment testing. This is a structural reorganization of disclosure topics, not a change in the underlying accounting or estimates.
