CEO commentary

U.S. Bancorp Chairman, President and CEO Andy Cecere said,  “Our financial performance this quarter demonstrates how our scale, differentiated business mix, and through-the-cycle approach to risk management converge to drive industry-leading returns to shareholders anchored by a strong balance sheet. Our first quarter diluted earnings per common share, as adjusted, totaled $1.16, revenues exceeded $7 billion for the first time in our Company’s history, and we delivered a reported return on tangible common equity of 22.0%. The strength and stability of our balance sheet is foundational to the Company, and our commitment to managing the business with a long-term view is unwavering. Our strong liquidity position is enhanced by a well-diversified deposit profile and access to ample alternative funding sources. Our common equity tier 1 capital ratio ended the quarter at our target level of 8.5%, and we expect that ratio to expand over the next several quarters as we realize the accretive benefit of recently-acquired Union Bank. The integration is proceeding as planned, and we continue to target conversion over the upcoming Memorial Day weekend. I’d like to thank our employees for their commitment to doing the right thing for customers and communities every day.”
