Full-year 2025 net income reached $833.2 million, up from $614.2 million in 2024, while adjusted net income excluding FDIC special assessment effects grew to $823.5 million from $646.1 million, reflecting stronger profitability, loan growth to $39.3 billion, and improved credit quality metrics such as lower non-performing loans and net charge-offs.
