Bank of America BAC Q2 2026 earnings

“The team delivered one of our strongest quarters to date, with earnings per share up 34% year-over-year. Every business segment reported double digit net income growth and strong returns on equity. Revenue increased 15% from last year as we deepened relationships with existing clients and welcomed new ones. Against a healthy economic backdrop, resilient consumers and businesses are turning to Bank of America to spend, borrow and invest. It was also an exceptional quarter for our markets-facing businesses, with investment banking fees up 50% year-over-year. Near-term, pipelines remain strong, and commercial borrowing has picked up. Disciplined expense management, coupled with investments for growth, helped drive 6.6% operating leverage and a roughly 360 basis point improvement in our efficiency ratio from a year ago. Going forward, we remain focused on what we do best, delivering for clients at every stage of their financial lives.”
