For Q2 2026, total revenue reached $22.62 billion, representing a 9% year-over-year increase compared to $20.82 billion in Q2 2025. This top-line expansion was driven by a 5% increase in net interest income to $12.32 billion alongside a 13% expansion in noninterest income to $10.31 billion, fueled by higher investment banking, wealth advisory fees, and equity gains.

Total revenue net of interest expense reached $29.96 billion, driven by net interest income growth of 8% to $16.45 billion, offset by a contraction in noninterest income to $13.51 billion. Results were significantly weighed down by a $1.20 billion non-tax-deductible civil money penalty recorded within noninterest expense ($19.72 billion total) following regulatory settlements with the OCC, FinCEN, and OFAC concerning BSA/AML and sanctions compliance programs. Provision for credit losses fell slightly to $1.27 billion.
