ZIONZions Bancorporation, National Association
Zions Bancorporation reported third-quarter 2026 net earnings of $262 million and diluted EPS of $1.78, up from $221 million and $1.48 in the prior-year period. Net interest income rose 2% to $684 million as lower funding costs offset a decline in investment securities yields. The provision for credit losses was an $8 million benefit compared to a $49 million expense last year, driven by improved credit quality with net charge-offs of just $3 million. Customer deposits grew 5% to $74.5 billion, while total loans increased 4% to $62.5 billion. The estimated CET1 capital ratio stood at 11.8%. Zions Bancorporation is a financial services company operating principally through seven bank divisions in 11 Western states.
