SECOND QUARTER 2024 NET INCOME OF $206 MILLION, $1.49 PER SHARE
Period-End Loan Growth and Continued Strong Credit Quality
Successful Execution of Expense Management and Fee Income Initiatives

“Today we reported second quarter earnings per share of $1.49, an increase of $0.51 over first quarter results," said Curtis C. Farmer, Comerica Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "Our focus on responsible growth drove an inflection in loan balances through quarter-end. While deposits remained pressured by persistently high rates, we grew customer-related interest-bearing deposits and maintained a favorable mix of noninterest-bearing balances. Fee income and expenses both improved quarter-over-quarter as we strive to balance strategic investments with efficiency, working towards positive operating leverage. Our proven approach to credit continued to be a competitive strength, resulting in net charge-offs of 9 basis points, below historical averages. Conservative capital management remained a priority with an estimated CET1 ratio of 11.55%, well above our 10% target.”

2


Net interest income decreased $15 million to $533 million, and net interest margin increased 6 basis points to 2.86%.
Decrease in net interest income driven by a decline in deposits held at the FRB, lower loan volume and the net impact of higher short-term rates, partially offset by lower brokered time deposits and FHLB advances.
Improvement in net interest margin reflected a reduction in higher-cost funding sources, partially offset by lower deposits held at the FRB and the net impact of higher short-term rates.
Provision for credit losses decreased $14 million.
The allowance for credit losses decreased $11 million to $717 million, reflecting changes in portfolio composition as well as continued improvement in the economic outlook.
As a percentage of total loans, the allowance for credit losses was 1.38%, a decrease of 5 basis points.
Noninterest income increased $55 million to $291 million.
Driven by a $42 million increase in risk management hedging income, as well as increases of $7 million each in capital markets and fiduciary income and a $4 million increase in brokerage fees, partially offset by a $5 million decrease in deferred compensation asset returns (offset in noninterest expenses).

Credit Quality
“Credit quality remained strong with net charge-offs of 9 basis points, below historical averages,” said Farmer. “Despite ongoing inflationary pressures and elevated interest rates, we saw lower criticized loans and a modest decline in our allowance for credit losses to 1.38% of total loans. We continue to incrementally monitor select portfolios with higher relative pressure, but feel overall metrics and trends remain manageable. Our proven approach to credit, coupled with our intentional portfolio diversification, continues to deliver strong results and positions us well for the future.”

Should one or more of these risks materialize or should underlying beliefs or assumptions prove incorrect, Comerica's actual results could differ materially from those discussed. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include credit risks (changes in customer behavior; unfavorable developments concerning credit quality; and declines or other changes in the businesses or industries of Comerica's customers); market risks (changes in monetary and fiscal policies; fluctuations in interest rates and their impact on deposit pricing; and transitions away from the Bloomberg Short-Term Bank Yield Index towards new interest rate benchmarks); liquidity risks (Comerica's ability to maintain adequate sources of funding and liquidity; reductions in Comerica's credit rating; and the interdependence of financial service companies and their soundness); technology risks (cybersecurity risks and heightened legislative and regulatory focus on cybersecurity and data privacy); operational risks (operational, systems or infrastructure failures; reliance on other companies to provide certain key components of business infrastructure; the impact of legal and regulatory proceedings or determinations; losses due to fraud; and controls and procedures failures); compliance risks (changes in regulation or oversight, or changes in Comerica’s status with respect to existing regulations or oversight; the effects of stringent capital requirements; and the impacts of future legislative, administrative or judicial changes to tax regulations); strategic risks (damage to Comerica's reputation; Comerica's ability to utilize technology to efficiently and effectively develop, market and deliver new products and services; competitive product and pricing pressures among financial institutions within Comerica's markets; the implementation of Comerica's strategies and business initiatives; management's ability to maintain and expand customer relationships; management's ability to retain key officers and employees; and any future strategic acquisitions or divestitures); and other general risks (changes in general economic, political or industry conditions; negative effects from inflation; the effectiveness of methods of reducing risk exposures; the effects of catastrophic events, including pandemics; physical or transition risks related to climate change; changes in accounting standards; the critical nature of Comerica's accounting policies, processes and management estimates; the volatility of Comerica’s stock price; and that an investment in Comerica’s equity securities is not insured or guaranteed by the FDIC). Comerica cautions that the foregoing list of factors is not all-inclusive. For discussion of factors that may cause actual results to differ from expectations, please refer to our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. In particular, please refer to “Item 1A.

RECONCILIATIONS OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES AND REGULATORY RATIOS (unaudited)
Comerica Incorporated and Subsidiaries
Comerica believes non-GAAP measures are meaningful because they reflect adjustments commonly made by management, investors, regulators and analysts to evaluate the adequacy of common equity and performance trends. Comerica believes adjusted net income, earnings per share, ROA and ROE provide a greater understanding of ongoing operations and financial results by removing the impact of notable items from net income, net income available to common shareholders, average assets and average common shareholders’ equity. Notable items are meaningful because they provide greater detail of how certain events or initiatives affect Comerica’s results for a more informed understanding of those results. Tangible common equity is used by Comerica to measure the quality of capital and the return relative to balance sheet risk.

Direct Express Program update: Preliminary notification of non-selection • Summary: Comerica Bank is the exclusive issuer of the Direct Express debit card for approximately 4.5 million federal benefit recipients as of June 30, 2024. • Driving Financial Inclusion: Helping the U.S. Department of the Treasury, Bureau of the Fiscal Service (U.S. Treasury) provide recipients ready, safe access to their government benefits was the founding mission of the Direct Express Program. The prepaid card program is intended to deliver benefits more cost effectively and securely and to be an on- ramp to financial inclusion for millions of unbanked Americans, providing recipients the tools they need to participate fully in the economy. • Renewal History: In 2008, 2014 and again in 2020, Comerica Bank was selected by the U.S. Treasury as the Financial Agent for their Direct Express Debit MasterCard Program. Comerica Bank’s contract with the U.S. Treasury expires in early 2025. • Strong Customer Satisfaction: Since inception of the program, Comerica has achieved a 90% (or better) cardholder satisfaction rating. • Prioritizing Security: Since 2013, the U.S. Treasury has required all federal benefit recipients (with a few grandfathered exceptions) to receive their monthly benefits electronically, either by direct deposit or through the Direct Express debit card. With 100% of cardholders using EMV chip and PIN, it can be considered one of the most secure prepaid cards in the industry. Program Overview Financial Metrics Program Status • Balances: ~$3.3B in 2Q24 average deposit balances (large fluctuations throughout the quarter due to timing cause ending balances to vary). • Intra-month Patterns: Comerica Bank receives most of the deposit balances on the 1st and 3rd days of each month (subject to change based on weekends or holidays). • Peaks & Troughs: In June 2024, highest balance was $4.8B & lowest balance was $2.8B. • Income Statement: • $137MM FY23 & $29MM 2Q24 noninterest income (card fees) • $138MM FY23 & $29MM 2Q24 direct expenses primarily in outside processing fees, but also includes professional fees, operational losses, staff expenses & other fees • Re-Bid: We received a preliminary notification that Comerica Bank has not been selected to continue serving as the Financial Agent to support the program following contract expiration. • Transition Plan: If the preliminary non-selection of Comerica Bank remains the final disposition, we expect the formal transition plan for managing accounts & deposits to be agreed upon once contract negotiations are finalized with the new provider. We do not currently expect this transition to impact 2024 deposits, noninterest income or noninterest expenses. • Next Steps: We intend to continue to support our customers through the transition & prioritize efforts to drive deposits. 4.8 Stars1 1Apple App Store as of 7/11/24

Uninsured Deposits Comerica believes that the presentation of uninsured deposits adjusted for the impact of affiliate deposits provides enhanced clarity of uninsured deposits at risk. Total uninsured deposits as calculated per regulatory guidance and reported on schedule RC-O of Comerica Bank’s Call Report include affiliate deposits, which by definition have a different risk profile than other uninsured deposits. The amounts presented below remove affiliate deposits from the total uninsured deposits number.
