PNC Financial: Hold Rating Amid Balanced Risk-Reward Profile and Net Interest Income UncertaintiesWe expect a modestly positive investor response given the better results and in-line 2025 revenue, NII, and expense guidance. We note the 2025 full year revenue guide of up 6% YoY (~$22.85bn), in-line with Street consensus and 2025 expense guide of up 1% YoY (~$13.65bn) vs. VA consensus of $13.6bn, implying an in-line PPNR versus consensus. of key quarterly trends: The PPNR beat was driven by: 1) 3% higher core fee income on better capital markets and lending and deposit services; and 2) 2% higher NII on ~5bps higher NIM. 3. Core expense came in largely in-line with the Street estimates despite the better revenue trends. PNC’s Standardized CET1 ratio increased 20bps above consensus.
