Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, regarding the financial condition, results of operations, business plans and the future performance of Truist. Words such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “forecasts,” “intends,” “plans,” “projects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “would,” “could,” and other similar expressions are intended to identify these forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements are not based on historical facts but instead represent management’s expectations and assumptions regarding Truist’s business, the economy, and other future conditions. Such statements involve inherent uncertainties, risks, and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. As such, Truist’s actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by forward-looking statements. While there can be no assurance that any list of risks and uncertainties or risk factors is complete, important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by forward-looking statements include the following, without limitation, as well as the risks and uncertainties more fully discussed in Part I, Item 1A-Risk Factors in Truist’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020:

risks and uncertainties relating to the Merger of heritage BB&T and heritage SunTrust, including the ability to successfully integrate the companies or to realize the anticipated benefits of the Merger;
expenses relating to the Merger and integration of heritage BB&T and heritage SunTrust;
deposit attrition, client loss or revenue loss following completed mergers or acquisitions may be greater than anticipated;
the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted the global economy and adversely impacted Truist’s financial condition and results of operations, including through increased expenses, reduced fee income and net interest margin, and increases in the allowance for credit losses; the resurgence of the pandemic in recent months could reintroduce or prolong these negative impacts and also adversely affect Truist’s capital and liquidity position or cost of capital, impair the ability of borrowers to repay outstanding loans, cause an outflow of deposits, and impair goodwill or other assets;
Truist is subject to credit risk by lending or committing to lend money, and may have more credit risk and higher credit losses to the extent that loans are concentrated by loan type, industry segment, borrower type or location of the borrower or collateral;
changes in the interest rate environment, including the replacement of LIBOR as an interest rate benchmark and potentially negative interest rates, which could adversely affect Truist’s revenue and expenses, the value of assets and obligations, and the availability and cost of capital, cash flows, and liquidity;
inability to access short-term funding or liquidity, loss of client deposits or changes in Truist’s credit ratings, which could increase the cost of funding or limit access to capital markets;
risk management oversight functions may not identify or address risks adequately, and management may not be able to effectively manage credit risk;
risks resulting from the extensive use of models in Truist’s business, which may impact decisions made by management and regulators;
failure to execute on strategic or operational plans, including the ability to successfully complete or integrate mergers and acquisitions;
increased competition, including from (i) new or existing competitors that could have greater financial resources or be subject to different regulatory standards, and (ii) products and services offered by non-bank financial technology companies, may reduce Truist’s client base, cause Truist to lower prices for its products and services in order to maintain market share or otherwise adversely impact Truist’s businesses or results of operations;
failure to maintain or enhance Truist’s competitive position with respect to new products, services and technology, whether it fails to anticipate client expectations or because its technological developments fail to perform as desired or do not achieve market acceptance or regulatory approval or for other reasons, may cause Truist to lose market share or incur additional expense;
negative public opinion, which could damage Truist’s reputation;
increased scrutiny regarding Truist’s consumer sales practices, training practices, incentive compensation design, and governance;
regulatory matters, litigation or other legal actions, which may result in, among other things, costs, fines, penalties, restrictions on Truist’s business activities, reputational harm, negative publicity, or other adverse consequences;
evolving legislative, accounting and regulatory standards, including with respect to capital and liquidity requirements, and results of regulatory examinations may adversely affect Truist’s financial condition and results of operations;
the monetary and fiscal policies of the federal government and its agencies could have a material adverse effect on profitability;
accounting policies and processes require management to make estimates about matters that are uncertain, including the potential write down to goodwill if there is an elongated period of decline in market value for Truist’s stock and adverse economic conditions are sustained over a period of time;
general economic or business conditions, either globally, nationally or regionally, may be less favorable than expected, and instability in global geopolitical matters or volatility in financial markets could result in, among other things, slower deposit or asset growth, a deterioration in credit quality, or a reduced demand for credit, insurance, or other services;
risks related to originating and selling mortgages, including repurchase and indemnity demands from purchasers related to representations and warranties on loans sold, which could result in an increase in the amount of losses for loan repurchases;
risks relating to Truist’s role as a loan servicer, including an increase in the scope or costs of the services Truist is required to perform, without any corresponding increase in servicing fees or a breach of Truist’s obligations as servicer;
Truist’s success depends on hiring and retaining key personnel, and if these individuals leave or change roles without effective replacements, Truist’s operations and integration activities could be adversely impacted, which could be exacerbated as Truist continues to integrate the management teams of heritage BB&T and heritage SunTrust;
fraud or misconduct by internal or external parties, which Truist may not be able to prevent, detect, or mitigate;
security risks, including denial of service attacks, hacking, social engineering attacks targeting Truist’s teammates and clients, malware intrusion, data corruption attempts, system breaches, cyber attacks, identity theft, ransomware attacks, and physical security risks, such as natural disasters, environmental conditions, and intentional acts of destruction, could result in the disclosure of confidential information, adversely affect Truist’s business or reputation or create significant legal or financial exposure; and
widespread outages of operational, communication, or other systems, whether internal or provided by third parties, natural or other disasters (including acts of terrorism and pandemics), and the effects of climate change, including physical risks, such as more frequent and intense weather events, and risks related to the transition to a lower carbon economy, such as regulatory or technological changes or shifts in market dynamics or consumer preferences, could have an adverse effect on Truist’s financial condition and results of operations, lead to material disruption of Truist’s operations or the ability or willingness of clients to access Truist’s products and services.

Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made. Except to the extent required by applicable law or regulation, Truist undertakes no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements.

NOTE 1. Basis of Presentation

General

See the Glossary of Defined Terms at the beginning of this Report for terms used herein. These consolidated financial statements and notes are presented in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q, and, therefore, do not include all information and notes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flow activity required in accordance with GAAP. In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the consolidated financial position and consolidated results of operations have been made. The year-end consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited annual financial statements but does not contain all of the footnote disclosures from the annual financial statements. The information contained in the financial statements and notes included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 should be referred to in connection with these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements. There were no significant changes to the Company’s accounting policies from those disclosed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 that could have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts reported in prior periods’ consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change include the determination of the ACL; determination of fair value for financial instruments; valuation of MSRs; goodwill, intangible assets and other purchase accounting related adjustments; benefit plan obligations and expenses; and tax assets, liabilities, and expense.

Changes in Accounting Principles and Effects of New Accounting Pronouncements

On July 1, 2021, Truist acquired Constellation Affiliated Partners, which resulted in approximately $ 543 million of goodwill and $ 418 million of identifiable intangible assets in the IH segment. Fair value estimates related to the acquired assets and liabilities are subject to adjustment during the one-year measurement period following the closing of the acquisition. The intangible assets are being amortized on an accelerated basis over a term of 15.0 years based upon the estimated economic benefits received. Goodwill of $ 456 million and identifiable intangible assets of $ 277 million are deductible for tax purposes.

On August 10, 2021, Truist announced it will acquire Service Finance, LLC for $ 2.0 billion in cash consideration, which is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2021.

NOTE 3. Securities Financing Activities

Securities purchased under resale agreements are primarily collateralized by U.S. government or agency securities and are carried at the amounts at which the securities will be subsequently sold, plus accrued interest. Securities borrowed are primarily collateralized by corporate securities. The Company borrows securities and purchases securities under agreements to resell as part of its securities financing activities. On the acquisition date of these securities, the Company and the related counterparty agree on the amount of collateral required to secure the principal amount loaned under these arrangements. The Company monitors collateral values daily and calls for additional collateral to be provided as warranted under the respective agreements. At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the total market value of collateral held was $ 1.9 billion and $ 1.7 billion, of which $ 188 million and $ 27 million was repledged, respectively. The following table presents securities borrowed or purchased under resale agreements:
(Dollars in millions) Sep 30, 2021 Dec 31, 2020
Securities purchased under resale agreements $ 1,302 $ 1,158
Securities borrowed 617 587
Total securities borrowed or purchased under resale agreements $ 1,919 $ 1,745

For securities sold under agreements to repurchase, the Company would be obligated to provide additional collateral in the event of a significant decline in fair value of the collateral pledged. This risk is managed by monitoring the liquidity and credit quality of the collateral, as well as the maturity profile of the transactions. Refer to “Note 14. Commitments and Contingencies” for additional information related to pledged securities. The following table presents the Company’s related activity, by collateral type and remaining contractual maturity:

Certain securities issued by FNMA and FHLMC exceeded 10% of shareholders’ equity at September 30, 2021. The FNMA investments had total amortized cost and fair value of $ 42.1 billion and $ 41.7 billion, respectively. The FHLMC investments had total amortized cost and fair value of $ 44.8 billion and $ 44.2 billion, respectively.

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of the securities portfolio by contractual maturity are shown in the following table. The expected life of MBS may be shorter than the contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to prepay their obligations with or without penalties.

At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, no ACL was established for AFS securities. Substantially all of the unrealized losses on the securities portfolio were the result of changes in market interest rates compared to the date the securities were acquired rather than the credit quality of the issuers or underlying loans.

NOTE 5. Loans and ACL

The following tables present loans and leases HFI by aging category. Government guaranteed loans are not placed on nonaccrual status regardless of delinquency because collection of principal and interest is reasonably assured. The past due status of loans that received a deferral under the CARES Act is generally frozen during the deferral period. In certain limited circumstances, accommodation programs result in the delinquency status being reset to current.

The commercial ALLL decreased $ 312 million and $ 857 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. The decreases for both the three and nine month periods are due to an improving economic outlook and lower loan balances.

The consumer ALLL decreased $ 94 million and $ 271 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. The decrease for the three-month period reflects an improving economic outlook slightly offset by loan growth primarily in the residential mortgage portfolio. The decrease for the nine-month period reflects an improving economic outlook and lower loan balances primarily in the residential mortgage and home equity and direct portfolios.

The RUFC decreased $ 39 million and $ 88 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. The decreases reflect an improving economic outlook.

The quantitative models have been designed to estimate losses using macro-economic forecasts over a reasonable and supportable forecast period of two years, followed by a reversion to long-term historical loss conditions over a one-year period. These macro-economic forecasts include a number of key economic variables utilized in loss forecasting that include, but are not limited to, unemployment trends, US real GDP, corporate credit spreads, rental rates, property values, the primary 30-year mortgage rate, home price indices, and used car prices.

The primary economic forecast incorporates a third-party baseline forecast that is adjusted to reflect Truist’s interest rate outlook. Management also considers optimistic and pessimistic third-party macro-economic forecasts in order to capture uncertainty in the economic environment. These forecasts, along with the primary economic forecast, are weighted 40% baseline, 30% optimistic and 30% pessimistic in the September 30, 2021 ACL. The primary economic forecast shaping the ACL estimate at September 30, 2021 included GDP growth in the high single digits through 2021, then slowing to the low single digits in 2022, and an improving unemployment rate to the mid single digits through the end of 2021 followed by continued improvement through the remainder of the reasonable and supportable period.

Quantitative models have certain limitations with respect to estimating expected losses, particularly in times of rapidly changing macro-economic conditions and forecasts. As a result, management believes that the qualitative component of the ACL, which incorporates management’s expert judgment related to expected future credit losses, will continue to be an important component of the ACL for the foreseeable future. The September 30, 2021 ACL estimate includes adjustments to address risks not captured by the loss forecasting models including imprecision in future economic forecasts, uncertainty around the return of consumer and business confidence once stimulus ceases, and the impact of government relief programs and client accommodations on expected losses.

NOTE 6. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

The Company performed a qualitative assessment of current events and circumstances, including macroeconomic and market factors, industry and banking sector events, Truist specific performance indicators, and a comparison of management’s forecast and assumptions to those used in its October 1, 2020 quantitative impairment test, concluding that it was not more-likely-than-not that the fair value of one or more of its reporting units is below its respective carrying amount as of September 30, 2021, and therefore no triggering event occurred that required a quantitative goodwill impairment test. See “Note 1. Basis of Presentation” and “Note 7. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” in Truist’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 for additional information.

The sensitivity calculations above are hypothetical and should not be considered to be predictive of future performance. As indicated, changes in fair value based on adverse changes in assumptions generally cannot be extrapolated because the relationship of the change in assumption to the change in fair value may not be linear. Also, in the above table, the effect of an adverse variation in one assumption on the fair value of the MSRs is calculated without changing any other assumption; while in reality, changes in one factor may result in changes in another, which may magnify or counteract the effect of the change. See “Note 15. Fair Value Disclosures” for additional information on the valuation techniques used.

NOTE 12. Income Taxes

For the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the provision for income taxes was $ 423 million and $ 255 million, respectively, representing effective tax rates of 19.9 % and 18.3 %, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the provision for income taxes was $1.2 billion and $ 670 million, respectively, representing effective tax rates of 19.7 % and 17.5 %, respectively. The higher effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 was primarily due to higher pre-tax income without a corresponding increase in beneficial tax items. The Company calculated the provision for income taxes by applying the estimated annual effective tax rate to year-to-date pre-tax income and adjusting for discrete items that occurred during the period.

NOTE 13. Benefit Plans

The components of net periodic (benefit) cost for defined benefit pension plans are summarized in the following table:

Truist makes contributions to the qualified pension plans in amounts between the minimum required for funding and the maximum deductible for federal income tax purposes. Discretionary contributions totaling $ 403 million were made to the Truist pension plan during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. There are no required contributions for the remainder of 2021.

NOTE 14. Commitments and Contingencies

Truist utilizes a variety of financial instruments to meet the financing needs of clients and to mitigate exposure to risks. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, letters of credit and financial guarantees and derivatives. Truist also has commitments to fund certain affordable housing investments and contingent liabilities related to certain sold loans.

Tax Credit and Certain Equity Investments

The Company invests in certain affordable housing projects throughout its market area as a means of supporting local communities. Truist receives tax credits related to these investments, for which the Company typically acts as a limited partner and therefore does not exert control over the operating or financial policies of the partnerships.

Total Return Swaps

The Company facilitates matched book TRS transactions on behalf of clients, whereby a VIE purchases reference assets identified by a client and the Company enters into a TRS with the VIE, with a mirror-image TRS facing the client. The Company provides senior financing to the VIE in the form of demand notes to fund the purchase of the reference assets. Reference assets are typically fixed income instruments primarily composed of syndicated bank loans. The TRS contracts pass through interest and other cash flows on the reference assets to the third party clients, along with exposing those clients to decreases in value on the assets and providing them with the rights to appreciation on the assets. The terms of the TRS contracts require the third parties to post initial margin collateral, as well as ongoing margin as the fair values of the underlying reference assets change.

The Company concluded that the associated VIEs should be consolidated because the Company has (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses and the right to receive benefits, that could potentially be significant. At September 30, 2021, the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet reflected $ 1.6 billion of assets and $ 133 million of other liabilities of the VIEs. At December 31, 2020, the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet reflected $ 1.3 billion of assets and $ 41 million of other liabilities of the VIEs. VIE assets include trading loans and bonds totaling $ 1.5 billion and $ 1.3 billion at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The activities of the VIEs are restricted to buying and selling the reference assets and the risks/benefits of any such assets owned by the VIEs are passed to the third party clients via the TRS contracts. For additional information on TRS contracts and the related VIEs, see “Note 16. Derivative Financial Instruments.”

Pledged Assets

Certain assets were pledged to secure municipal deposits, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, certain derivative agreements, and borrowings or borrowing capacity, as well as for other purposes as required or permitted by law. Assets pledged to the FHLB and FRB are subject to applicable asset discounts when determining borrowing capacity. The Company obtains secured financing and letters of credit from the FRB and FHLB. The Company’s letters of credit from the FHLB can be used to secure various client deposits, including public fund relationships. Excluding assets related to employee benefit plans, the majority of the agreements governing the pledged assets do not permit the other party to sell or repledge the collateral. The following table provides the total carrying amount of pledged assets by asset type:
(Dollars in millions) Sep 30, 2021 Dec 31, 2020

Litigation and Regulatory Matters

Truist and/or its subsidiaries are routinely parties to numerous legal proceedings, including private, civil litigation, and regulatory investigations, arising from the ordinary conduct of its regular business activities. The matters range from individual actions involving a single plaintiff to class action lawsuits with multiple class members and can involve claims for substantial amounts. Investigations involve both formal and informal proceedings, by both governmental agencies and self-regulatory organizations. These legal proceedings are at varying stages of adjudication, arbitration, or investigation and may consist of a variety of claims, including common law tort and contract claims, as well as statutory antitrust, securities, and consumer protection claims. The ultimate resolution of any proceeding is uncertain and inherently difficult to predict. It is possible that the ultimate resolution of these matters, if unfavorable, may be material to the consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations, or consolidated cash flows of Truist.

Truist establishes accruals for legal matters when potential losses associated with the actions become probable and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. There is no assurance that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not significantly exceed the amounts that Truist has accrued. Accruals for legal matters are based on management’s best judgment after consultation with counsel and others.

The Company estimates reasonably possible losses, in excess of amounts accrued, of up to approximately $ 200 million as of September 30, 2021. This estimate is based upon currently available information and involves considerable judgment, given that claims often include significant legal uncertainties, damages alleged by plaintiffs are often unspecified or overstated, discovery may not have started or may not be complete and material facts may be disputed or unsubstantiated, among other factors. In addition, the matters underlying this estimate will change from time to time and actual losses may vary significantly from this estimate. As a result, the Company does not believe that an estimate of reasonably possible losses can be made for certain matters. Such matters are not reflected in the estimate provided herein.

The following is a description of a certain legal proceeding in which Truist is involved:

Bickerstaff v. SunTrust Bank

This class action case was filed in the Fulton County State Court on July 12, 2010, and an amended complaint was filed on August 9, 2010. Plaintiff asserts that all overdraft fees charged to his account which related to debit card and ATM transactions are actually interest charges and therefore subject to the usury laws of Georgia. Plaintiff has brought claims for violations of civil and criminal usury laws, conversion, and money had and received. On October 6, 2017, the trial court granted plaintiff’s motion for class certification and defined the class as “Every Georgia citizen who had or has one or more accounts with SunTrust Bank and who, from July 12, 2006, to October 6, 2017 (i) had at least one overdraft of $500.00 or less resulting from an ATM or debit card transaction (the “Transaction”); (ii) paid any Overdraft Fees as a result of the Transaction; and (iii) did not receive a refund of those Fees,” and the granting of a certified class was affirmed on appeal. On April 8, 2020, the Company filed a motion seeking to narrow the scope of this class, and on May 29, 2020, it filed a renewed motion to compel arbitration of the claims of some of the class members. On February 9, 2021, the trial court denied both motions as premature but held that the issues could be raised again after the conclusion of discovery, which is currently underway. The Company believes that the claims are without merit.

NOTE 15. Fair Value Disclosures

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

Accounting standards define fair value as the price that would be received on the measurement date to sell an asset or the price paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market available to the entity in an orderly transaction between market participants, with a three level measurement hierarchy:

Level 1: Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets
Level 2: Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable in active markets
Level 3: Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs are unobservable

During 2020, Truist sold non-agency MBS previously categorized as Level 3 that represented ownership interests in various tranches of Re-REMIC trusts. Additionally during 2020, as a result of a change in control of the funds’ manager, the Company deconsolidated certain SBIC funds for which it had previously concluded that it was the primary beneficiary.

LHFS with valuation adjustments in the table above consisted primarily of residential mortgages and commercial loans that were valued using market prices and measured at the lower of cost or market. LHFS as of December 31, 2020 includes the small ticket loan and lease portfolio that was sold during the first quarter of 2021. The table above excludes $ 79 million and $ 125 million of LHFS carried at cost at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, that did not require a valuation adjustment during the period. The remainder of LHFS is carried at fair value. The Company held $ 76 million in nonperforming LHFS at September 30, 2021 and $ 5 million of nonperforming LHFS at December 31, 2020. LHFS that were 90 days or more past due and still accruing interest were not material at September 30, 2021.

Loans and leases consists of larger commercial loans and leases that do not share similar risk characteristics. These loans and leases are collateral dependent and may be subject to liquidity adjustments. Refer to “Note 1. Basis of Presentation” in Truist’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 for additional discussion of individually evaluated loans and leases.

Other includes foreclosed real estate, other foreclosed property, ROU assets, premises and equipment, and OREO, and consists primarily of residential homes, commercial properties, vacant lots, and automobiles. ROU assets are measured based on the fair value of the assets, which considers the potential for sublease income. The remaining assets are measured at the lower of cost or fair value, less costs to sell.

Financial Instruments Not Recorded at Fair Value

For financial instruments not recorded at fair value, estimates of fair value are based on relevant market data and information about the instruments. Values obtained relate to trading without regard to any premium or discount that may result from concentrations of ownership, possible tax ramifications, estimated transaction costs that may result from bulk sales or the relationship between various instruments.

An active market does not exist for certain financial instruments. Fair value estimates for these instruments are based on current economic conditions and interest rate risk characteristics, loss experience and other factors. Many of these estimates involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and cannot be determined with precision. Therefore, the fair value estimates in many instances cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets. In addition, changes in assumptions could significantly affect these fair value estimates. Financial assets and liabilities not recorded at fair value are summarized below:
September 30, 2021 December 31, 2020
(Dollars in millions) Fair Value Hierarchy Carrying Amount Fair Value Carrying Amount Fair Value
Financial assets:
Loans and leases HFI, net of ALLL Level 3 $ 280,820 $ 281,198 $ 293,899 $ 295,461

Long-term debt Level 2 37,837 38,491 39,597 40,864

The carrying value of the RUFC, which approximates the fair value of unfunded commitments, was $ 276 million and $ 364 million at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

Credit Derivative Instruments

As part of the Company’s corporate investment banking business, the Company enters into contracts that are, in form or substance, written guarantees; specifically, risk participations, TRS, and credit default swaps. The Company accounts for these contracts as derivatives.

Truist has entered into risk participation agreements to share the credit exposure with other financial institutions on client-related interest rate derivative contracts. Under these agreements, the Company has guaranteed payment to a dealer counterparty in the event the counterparty experiences a loss on the derivative due to a failure to pay by the counterparty’s client. The Company manages its payment risk on its risk participations by monitoring the creditworthiness of the underlying client through the normal credit review process that the Company would have performed had it entered into a derivative directly with the obligors. At September 30, 2021, the remaining terms on these risk participations ranged from less than one year to 10 years. The potential future exposure represents the Company’s maximum estimated exposure to written risk participations, as measured by projecting a maximum value of the guaranteed derivative instruments based on scenario simulations and assuming 100% default by all obligors on the maximum value.

The Company has also entered into TRS contracts on loans. To mitigate its credit risk, the Company typically receives initial margin from the counterparty upon entering into the TRS and variation margin if the fair value of the underlying reference assets deteriorates. For additional information on the Company’s TRS contracts, see “Note 14. Commitments and Contingencies.”

The Company enters into credit default swaps to hedge credit risk associated with certain loans and leases. The Company accounts for these contracts as derivatives, and accordingly, recognizes these contracts at fair value.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

MD&A is intended to assist readers in their analysis of the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements and supplemental financial information. It should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements, the accompanying Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q, other information contained in this document, as well as with Truist’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Regulatory Considerations

The regulatory framework applicable to banking organizations is intended primarily for the protection of depositors and the stability of the financial system, rather than for the protection of shareholders and creditors. Truist is subject to banking laws and regulations, and various other laws and regulations, which affect the operations and management of Truist and its ability to make distributions to shareholders. Truist and its subsidiaries are also subject to supervision and examination by multiple regulators. The descriptions below summarize updates since the filing of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 to state and federal laws to which Truist is subject. These descriptions do not summarize all possible or proposed changes in current laws or regulations, and are not intended to be a substitute for the related statues or regulatory provisions. Refer to Truist’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 for additional disclosures.

Supplementary Leverage Ratio

The temporary exclusion of U.S. Treasury securities and deposits at the FRB from the calculation of the supplementary leverage ratio expired as scheduled on March 31, 2021. This temporary relief previously benefited the Company’s supplementary leverage ratio by approximately 20 basis points. The FRB also announced plans to invite public comment on several potential supplementary leverage ratio modifications to ensure that the supplementary leverage ratio remains effective in an environment of higher reserves, though such proposal had not been published as of the date of this report.

Stress Capital Buffer

The FRB assigned Truist an SCB of 2.5%, which is effective from October 1, 2021 to September 30, 2022, at which point a revised SCB will be calculated and provided to Truist.

The FRB has lifted the restrictions on capital distributions for large banking organizations, including Truist, that had been in place due to the uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Going forward, Truist is subject to the normal restrictions on capital distributions under the SCB framework and applicable law.

Security-Based Swap Dealer Registration

In November 2021, Truist Bank conditionally registered with the SEC as a security-based swap dealer. As a result, Truist Bank’s security-based swaps business is now subject to requirements that are similar to the CFTC rules applicable to swap dealers, including trade reporting, business conduct standards, recordkeeping, margin, and potentially mandatory clearing and exchange trading requirements.

Resolution Plans

The FDIC issued a policy statement in June 2021 announcing that it will resume requiring bank level resolution plans for large banks, including Truist Bank, and bank-level resolution plans will have more streamlined content requirements. Truist Bank will be required to submit a bank-level resolution plan every three years. During the third quarter, Truist Bank was informed by the FDIC that its next resolution plan will be due on or before December 1, 2022. The FDIC also clarified the content requirements of the next resolution plan Truist Bank is required to submit.

Truist submitted its inaugural resolution plan to the FRB and FDIC in September 2021, which is currently under review.

Lifting of Consent Order

In June 2021, the FDIC terminated the consent order between SunTrust Bank and the FRB relating to certain identified legacy compliance issues. Truist Bank, as successor to SunTrust Bank, committed to comply with the obligations in the order in connection with the FDIC’s and FRB’s approval of the Merger.

Truist Financial Corporation 39


Executive Overview

Truist had solid financial performance in the third quarter of 2021 that was driven by strong fee income from a diverse business mix - including wealth, insurance brokerage, investment banking, and positive trends in a number of other businesses given improving economic conditions. Improving economic conditions also led to strong credit performance and a benefit from the provision for credit losses. The Company achieved a significant milestone in early October with the successful migration of approximately 7 million clients (primarily heritage BB&T) to the new Truist technology ecosystem. In addition, Truist completed the retail mortgage origination conversion and accelerated the roll-out of the new Truist digital app during the third quarter of 2021. Truist continues to reaffirm its commitment to achieving $1.6 billion in net cost saves on a run rate basis by the fourth quarter of 2022. Truist also continues to closely monitor the COVID-19 pandemic and its effects on stakeholders and the financial markets and is actively supporting teammates, clients, and communities.

Integration Efforts

Major milestones during 2021 include:

Completed the Wealth brokerage and trust transitions.
Completed the mortgage systems transition, enabling clients to get the best of both heritage SunTrust and heritage BB&T to meet their homeownership needs.
Continued to activate the Integrated Relationship Management approach. Truist’s Integrated Relationship Management approach is designed to deepen client relationships and bring the full breadth and depth of Truist’s products and services to meet clients’ financial needs.
Introduced the new Truist digital app; migrated approximately 7 million clients to the new Truist digital banking experience, with nearly half of clients beginning to use the app
Converted heritage BB&T retail and commercial clients to the new Truist technology ecosystem, the most significant milestone to date.

Supporting Clients

Truist continues to work closely with clients as they navigate through the continuing challenges from the COVID-19 pandemic. Truist supported clients by being the sixth largest amongst commercial banks in the second round of PPP funding, assisting clients with the forgiveness process, and continuing to support clients as they transition from payment relief programs. Truist originated approximately $17 billion of PPP loans. As of September 30, 2021, Truist had $3.5 billion of PPP loans outstanding.

Supporting Teammates

Truist offered a voluntary separation and retirement program to eligible teammates in June 2021. Nearly 2,000 teammates elected to participate in the voluntary program designed to provide tenured teammates flexibility on how they want to manage their career. Approximately 50% of those that elected to participate had separation dates of September 30, 2021. While Truist is hiring in some areas and rightsizing in others through natural attrition, planned staffing reductions, and the voluntary separation and retirement program, Truist is actively supporting all teammates affected by reductions with opportunities and tools for internal placement, severance payments, and outplacement assistance and coaching. The Company recognized $189 million of merger-related and restructuring charges in 2021 related to the voluntary separation and retirement program.

Truist has made progress towards the commitment to increase racially and ethnically diverse teammates among senior leadership roles to more than 15% by 2023 with current progress at 14.2% as of September 30, 2021. For early career program hiring in 2021, 54% of seats at Truist were filled by candidates from various diverse backgrounds. Truist teammates have received $24 million through Truist Momentum, a workplace financial wellness program that educates, equips, and inspires teammates to manage their money based on what matters most to them.

Supporting Communities

Truist continued to fulfill its purpose in meaningful ways in the community in the third quarter through a number of unique and creative initiatives. Truist expanded its partnership with EVERFI bringing literacy tools to elementary schools across the nation. Truist showed leadership as the first top-10 bank to join BlackRock’s philanthropic Emergency Savings Initiative. Truist Community Capital provided over $300 million in equity in the third quarter to support communities through investments in affordable housing, access to healthy foods and education, and investments in job creation and small businesses. Truist continued to make solid progress towards the Company’s $60 billion Community Benefits Plan, ending August 2021 at 112% of the annual target. In July, Truist also released its second annual Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental, Social and Governance report to outline its advancements and commitments with regard to diversity, equity, and inclusion; environmental sustainability and climate change; governance; community involvement; and financial inclusion.

Financial Results

Net income available to common shareholders for the third quarter of 2021 totaled $1.6 billion, up 51%, compared with the third quarter of last year. On a diluted per common share basis, earnings for the third quarter of 2021 were $1.20, an increase of $0.41 compared to the third quarter of 2020. Truist’s results of operations for the third quarter of 2021 produced an annualized return on average assets of 1.28% and an annualized return on average common shareholders’ equity of 10.2% compared to prior year returns of 0.91% and 6.9%, respectively. Results for the third quarter of 2021 included merger-related and restructuring charges of $172 million ($132 million after-tax), incremental operating expenses related to the Merger of $191 million ($147 million after-tax), and a one-time professional fee expense of $30 million ($23 million after-tax). Results for the third quarter of 2020 included $236 million ($181 million after-tax) of merger-related and restructuring charges, $152 million ($115 million after-tax) of incremental operating expenses related to the Merger, securities gains of $104 million ($80 million after-tax), and a charitable contribution of $50 million ($38 million after-tax).

Truist’s revenue for the third quarter of 2021 was $5.6 billion. On a TE basis, revenue was also $5.6 billion for the third quarter of 2021, an increase of $25 million, or 0.4%, compared to the same period in 2020. Excluding securities gains of $104 million from the third quarter of 2020, adjusted taxable equivalent revenues increased $129 million, or 2.3%, compared to the earlier quarter.

TE net interest income for the third quarter of 2021 was down $130 million, or 3.8%, compared to the earlier quarter due to lower purchase accounting accretion, lower rates on earning assets, and a decrease in loans. These decreases were partially offset by growth in the securities portfolio, lower funding costs, higher fees on PPP loans, and fewer interest deferrals on COVID-19 loan accommodations. Average earning assets increased $26.4 billion, or 6.1%, compared to the earlier quarter. The increase in average earning assets reflects a $66.4 billion, or 83%, increase in average securities, while average total loans and leases decreased $25.4 billion, or 8.0%, and average other earning assets decreased $16.5 billion, or 46%. The growth in average earning assets is a result of an increase in investment securities driven by strong deposit growth resulting from fiscal and monetary stimulus. Average deposits increased $30.5 billion, or 8.2%, compared to the earlier quarter, while average long-term debt and short-term borrowings decreased $3.6 billion, or 8.8%, and $849 million, or 14%, respectively.

Net interest margin was 2.81%, down 29 basis points compared to the same period in 2020. The yield on the total loan portfolio for the third quarter of 2021 was 3.90%, down 14 basis points compared to the earlier quarter, reflecting the impact of lower purchase accounting accretion and a lower rate environment. The yield on the average securities portfolio was 1.50%, down 47 basis points compared to the earlier quarter primarily due to lower yields on new purchases.

The provision for credit losses was a benefit of $324 million, compared to a cost of $421 million for the same period in 2020. The earlier quarter reflected significant uncertainty related to the economic impacts resulting from the pandemic, whereas the current quarter includes a reserve release due to the improving economic outlook. Net charge-offs for the third quarter of 2021 totaled $135 million compared to $326 million in the earlier quarter. The third quarter of 2020 included $97 million of charge-offs related to the implementation of CECL, which required a gross up of loan carrying values in connection with the establishment of an allowance on PCD loans. The net charge-off ratio for the current quarter of 0.19% was down 23 basis points compared to the third quarter 2020, due primarily to the additional losses on PCD loans taken in the earlier quarter and lower actual net losses in the commercial portfolio.

Truist Financial Corporation 41


Noninterest income for the third quarter of 2021 increased $155 million, or 7.0%, compared to the same period in 2020. Noninterest income for the third quarter of 2020 included $104 million of securities gains on available-for-sale securities. Excluding securities gains, noninterest income increased $259 million, or 12%, compared to the earlier quarter. Insurance income increased $127 million due to acquisitions, as well as organic growth. Investment banking and trading income increased $57 million due to strong merger and acquisition activity and loan syndications. Wealth management income increased $32 million due to higher valuations of assets under management. Residential mortgage banking income decreased $42 million primarily due to lower production related revenues as a result of lower gain on sale margins and volumes, partially offset by higher servicing income due to increases in the valuation of mortgage servicing rights and lower prepayment rates. Additionally, there were increases in service charges on deposit accounts, other income, and card and payment related fees due to improved economic activity.

Noninterest expense for the third quarter of 2021 was up $40 million, or 1.1%, compared to the same period in 2020. Merger-related and restructuring charges decreased $64 million primarily due to facilities impairments in the earlier quarter, while incremental operating expenses related to the Merger increased $39 million, primarily reflected in professional fees and outside processing. The current quarter also includes a $30 million professional fee to develop an ongoing program to identify, prioritize, and roadmap teammate generated revenue growth and expense savings opportunities beyond the Merger. The earlier quarter included $50 million for charitable contributions to the Truist Charitable Fund (other expense). Excluding the aforementioned items and changes in amortization of intangibles, adjusted noninterest expense was up $110 million, or 3.5%, compared to the earlier quarter. Additionally, increases in personnel expense of $129 million were partially offset by a decline in net occupancy expense of $46 million and other expense of $72 million.

The provision for income taxes was $423 million for the third quarter of 2021, compared to $255 million for the same period in 2020. This produced an effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2021 of 19.9%, compared to 18.3% for the earlier quarter. The higher effective tax rate is primarily due to higher pre-tax income in the current quarter without a corresponding increase in beneficial tax items.

Truist’s total assets at September 30, 2021 were $529.9 billion, an increase of $20.7 billion, or 4.1%, compared to December 31, 2020. The increase in total assets was primarily a result of strong deposit growth, the deployment of which led to an increase in AFS securities of $30.3 billion, which was partially offset by a $15.1 billion decline in total loans and leases.

Total deposits at September 30, 2021 were $405.9 billion, an increase of $24.8 billion, or 6.5%, compared to December 31, 2020. Deposit growth was strong during the first nine months of 2021 resulting from fiscal and monetary stimulus, partially offset by the maturity of higher-cost personal accounts.

Asset quality remains excellent, reflecting Truist’s prudent risk culture, diverse portfolio, improving economic conditions, and the ongoing effects of government stimulus. As of September 30, 2021, nonperforming assets were 0.23% of total assets, down four basis points from December 31, 2020. The allowance for loan and lease loss coverage ratio was 4.35x nonperforming loans and leases held for investment, compared to 4.39x at December 31, 2020.

Truist maintained strong capital and liquidity. As of September 30, 2021, the CET1 ratio was 10.1% and the average LCR was 114%. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, Truist completed $1.1 billion of share repurchases and redeemed $1.4 billion of preferred stock. Additionally, the Company had $5.8 billion of senior long term debt maturities and redemptions, partially offset by $4.5 billion of issuances. Truist increased the common dividend 7% during the third quarter to $0.48 per share, resulting in dividend and total payout ratios for the third quarter of 2021 of 40%. In October 2021, Truist declared common dividends of $0.48 per share for the fourth quarter of 2021.

Truist continues to target a CET1 ratio of approximately 9.75% over the near-term. As previously communicated, the Company expects to be able to, with appropriate approvals from its Board of Directors, deploy approximately $4 billion to $5 billion of capital (either in the form of share repurchases or acquisitions) between 3Q21 and 3Q22. During the third quarter of 2021, Truist completed the acquisition of Constellation Affiliated Partners and announced the acquisition of Service Finance, LLC, reducing the amount of capital deployment available for acquisitions or share repurchases to approximately $1 billion to $2 billion through 3Q22. Truist resumed repurchasing shares and expects to consume approximately $500 million of this capacity via share repurchases in the fourth quarter of 2021 reflecting the Company’s strong capital position, and the reduced integration risk with successful migration of heritage BB&T retail and commercial clients to the Truist ecosystem.

Analysis of Results of Operations

Net Interest Income and NIM

Third Quarter 2021 compared to Third Quarter 2020

Net interest income for the third quarter of 2021 was down $130 million, or 3.8%, compared to the earlier quarter due to lower purchase accounting accretion, lower rates on earning assets, and a decrease in loans. These decreases were partially offset by growth in the securities portfolio, lower funding costs, higher fees on Payroll Protection Program loans, and fewer interest deferrals on COVID-19 loan accommodations. Average earning assets increased $26.4 billion, or 6.1%, compared to the earlier quarter. The increase in average earning assets reflects a $66.4 billion, or 83%, increase in average securities, while average total loans and leases decreased $25.4 billion, or 8.0%, and average other earning assets decreased $16.5 billion, or 46%. The growth in average earning assets is a result of an increase in investment securities driven by strong deposit growth resulting from fiscal and monetary stimulus. Average deposits increased $30.5 billion, or 8.2%, compared to the earlier quarter, while average long-term debt and short-term borrowings decreased $3.6 billion, or 8.8%, and $849 million, or 14%, respectively.

Net interest margin was 2.81%, down 29 basis points compared to the earlier quarter. The yield on the total loan portfolio for the third quarter of 2021 was 3.90%, down 14 basis points compared to the earlier quarter, reflecting the impact of lower purchase accounting accretion and a lower rate environment. The yield on the average securities portfolio was 1.50%, down 47 basis points compared to the earlier quarter primarily due to lower yields on new purchases.

The average cost of total deposits was 0.03%, down seven basis points compared to the earlier quarter. The average rate on short-term borrowings was 0.68%, down 17 basis points compared to the earlier quarter. The average rate on long-term debt was 1.61%, up 13 basis points compared to the earlier quarter. The lower rates on deposits and short-term borrowings reflect the lower rate environment. The higher rates on long-term debt was due to the runoff of lower rate FHLB advances.

Nine Months of 2021 compared to Nine Months of 2020

Net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was down $710 million, or 6.7%, compared to the prior period due to lower purchase accounting accretion, lower rates on earning assets, and a decrease in loans. These decreases were partially offset by growth in the securities portfolio, lower funding costs, higher fees on Payroll Protection Program loans, and fewer interest deferrals on COVID-19 loan accommodations. Average earning assets increased $21.8 billion, or 5.0%, compared to the prior period. The increase in average earning assets reflects a $57.9 billion, or 75%, increase in average securities, while average total loans and leases decreased $22.4 billion, or 7.1%, and average other earning assets decreased $14.3 billion, or 42%. The growth in average earning assets is a result of an increase in investment securities driven by strong deposit growth resulting from fiscal and monetary stimulus. Average deposits increased $34.9 billion, or 9.7%, compared to the prior period, while average long-term debt and short-term borrowings decreased $10.3 billion, or 22%, and $5.3 billion, or 46%, respectively.

Net interest margin was 2.90% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, down 36 basis points compared to the prior period. The yield on the total loan portfolio for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was 4.00%, down 39 basis points compared to the prior period, reflecting the impact of lower purchase accounting accretion and the lower rate environment. The yield on the average securities portfolio was 1.48% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, down 83 basis points compared to the prior period primarily due to lower yields on new purchases and premium amortization.

The average cost of total deposits was 0.04% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, down 23 basis points compared to the prior period. The average rate on short-term borrowings was 0.84% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, down 62 basis points compared to the prior period. The average rate on long-term debt was 1.59% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, down 19 basis points compared to the prior period. The lower rates on interest-bearing liabilities reflect the lower rate environment.

As of September 30, 2021, the remaining unamortized fair value marks on the loan and lease portfolio, deposits, and long-term debt were $1.5 billion, $9 million, and $157 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2020, the remaining unamortized fair value marks on the loan and lease portfolio, deposits and long-term debt were $2.4 billion, $19 million, and $216 million, respectively.

The remaining unamortized fair value mark on loans and leases consists of $807 million for consumer loans and leases, and $733 million for commercial loans and leases. These amounts will be recognized over the remaining contractual lives of the underlying instruments or as paydowns occur.

The major components of net interest income and the related annualized yields as well as the variances between the periods caused by changes in interest rates versus changes in volumes are summarized below.

Provision for Credit Losses

Third Quarter 2021 compared to Third Quarter 2020

The provision for credit losses was a benefit of $324 million, compared to a cost of $421 million for the earlier quarter. The earlier quarter reflected significant uncertainty related to the economic impacts resulting from the pandemic, whereas the current quarter includes a reserve release due to the improving economic outlook. Net charge-offs for the third quarter of 2021 totaled $135 million compared to $326 million in the earlier quarter. The third quarter of 2020 included $97 million of charge-offs related to the implementation of CECL, which required a gross up of loan carrying values in connection with the establishment of an allowance on PCD loans. The net charge-off ratio for the current quarter of 0.19% was down 23 basis points compared to the third quarter 2020, due primarily to the additional losses on PCD loans taken in the earlier quarter and lower actual net losses in the commercial portfolio.

Nine Months of 2021 compared to Nine Months of 2020

The provision for credit losses was a benefit of $710 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to a cost of $2.2 billion for the prior period. The prior period included significant uncertainty related to the economic impacts resulting from the pandemic, whereas the current period includes reserve releases due to the improving economic outlook. Net charge-offs for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 totaled $515 million compared to $914 million in the earlier period. The 2020 period included the previously mentioned $97 million of charge-offs related to the implementation of CECL. The net charge-off ratio for the current year of 0.24% was down 15 basis points compared to the prior period, primarily driven by lower losses across all portfolios, partially driven by additional losses on PCD loans taken in 2020, combined with higher recoveries.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income is a significant contributor to Truist’s financial results. Management focuses on diversifying its sources of revenue to reduce Truist’s reliance on traditional spread-based interest income, as certain fee-based activities are a relatively stable revenue source during periods of changing interest rates.

Third Quarter 2021 compared to Third Quarter 2020

Noninterest income for the third quarter of 2021 increased $155 million, or 7.0%, compared to the earlier quarter. Noninterest income for the third quarter of 2020 included $104 million of securities gains on available-for-sale securities. Excluding securities gains, noninterest income increased $259 million, or 12%, compared to the earlier quarter. Insurance income increased $127 million due to acquisitions, as well as organic growth. Investment banking and trading income increased $57 million due to strong merger and acquisition activity and loan syndications. Wealth management income increased $32 million due to higher valuations of assets under management. Service charges on deposit accounts and card and payment related fees increased $29 million and $25 million, respectively, due to increased economic activity. Residential mortgage banking income decreased $42 million primarily due to lower production related revenues as a result of lower gain on sale margins and volumes, partially offset by higher servicing income due to increases in the valuation of mortgage servicing rights and lower prepayment rates. Other income increased $29 million primarily due to investment income (primarily valuation gains) from the Company’s SBIC investments.

Nine Months of 2021 compared to Nine Months of 2020

Noninterest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 increased $373 million, or 5.7%, compared to the prior period. Other income for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 includes a $37 million gain from the divestiture of certain businesses, whereas noninterest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 included $402 million of securities gains on available-for-sale securities. Excluding securities gains and the divestiture gain, noninterest income increased $738 million, or 12%, compared to the prior period. Investment banking and trading income increased $322 million due to strong investment banking income from loan syndications and merger and acquisition fees, as well as the impact from CVA recoveries in the current period compared to losses in the earlier period. Insurance income increased $313 million due to acquisitions, as well as organic growth. Other income increased $197 million primarily due to higher valuations of $96 million for assets held for certain post-retirement benefits, which is largely offset by higher benefits expense included in personnel expense. In addition, other income increased $94 million related to increased investment income (primarily valuations gains) from the Company’s SBIC and Truist Ventures investments. Commercial real-estate related income increased $111 million primarily due to client-related structured real estate transactions. Wealth management increased $97 million due to higher valuations of assets under management. Card and payment related fees and service charges on deposits increased $92 million and $33 million, respectively, due to increased economic activity. Lending related fees increased $58 million due to gains from the sale of finance leases and noninterest loan fees due to higher unused line fees. Residential mortgage banking income decreased $411 million primarily due to lower production related revenues as a result of lower gain on sale margins and volumes, partially offset by higher servicing income due to an increase in the valuation of mortgage servicing rights. Operating lease income decreased $41 million due to declines in the lease portfolio.

Third Quarter 2021 compared to Third Quarter 2020

Noninterest expense for the third quarter of 2021 was up $40 million, or 1.1%, compared to the earlier quarter. Merger-related and restructuring charges decreased $64 million primarily due to facilities impairments in the earlier quarter, while incremental operating expenses related to the Merger increased $39 million, primarily reflected in professional fees and outside processing. The current quarter also includes a $30 million professional fee to develop an ongoing program to identify, prioritize, and roadmap teammate generated revenue growth and expense savings opportunities beyond the Merger. The earlier quarter included $50 million for charitable contributions to the Truist Charitable Fund (other expense). Excluding the aforementioned items and changes in amortization of intangibles, adjusted noninterest expense was up $110 million, or 3.5%, compared to the earlier quarter. Personnel expense increased $129 million primarily due to higher incentive expenses due to variable compensation from higher revenues and improved overall performance relative to targets, higher medical insurance claims, and personnel cost related to acquired companies, partially offset by lower equity based compensation. Additionally, net occupancy expense decreased $46 million primarily due to branch and property consolidations. Other expense also includes a decrease of $42 million for non-service-related pension cost components.

Truist Financial Corporation 47


Nine Months of 2021 compared to Nine Months of 2020

Noninterest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was up $352 million, or 3.2%, compared to the earlier period. Merger-related and restructuring charges increased $58 million and other incremental operating expenses related to the Merger increased $201 million. The current period also includes $200 million for charitable contributions to the Truist Foundation and the Truist Charitable Fund, $36 million of expense associated with an acceleration of loss recognition related to certain terminated cash flow hedges, the previously mentioned $30 million professional fee expense and a small gain on the early extinguishment of debt, whereas the earlier period included a $235 million loss on the early extinguishment of debt and a $50 million charitable contribution. Excluding the aforementioned items and changes in amortization of intangibles, noninterest expense increased $197 million, or 2.1%, compared to the earlier period. Personnel expense increased $498 million primarily driven by higher incentive expenses due to variable compensation from higher revenues and improved overall performance relative to targets, higher other employee benefits due to the previously mentioned increase in noninterest income, higher medical insurance claims, and personnel cost related to acquired companies. These increases in personnel expense were partially offset by lower salaries due to fewer FTEs. Software expense increased $60 million due to higher spending on certain projects. Other expense includes decreases of $125 million for non-service-related pension cost components. There was also a decrease of $119 million from net occupancy expense primarily due to branch and property consolidations and a decrease in operating lease depreciation of $60 million due to valuation adjustments taken in the prior year.

Third Quarter 2021 compared to Third Quarter 2020

Consumer Banking and Wealth

CB&W net income was $872 million for the third quarter of 2021, an increase of $54 million compared to the earlier quarter. Segment net interest income decreased $155 million primarily due to a decline in the funding credit provided on deposits, lower purchase accounting accretion, and a decline in average loans. The allocated provision for credit losses decreased $186 million which reflects the impact of an allowance release during the current quarter and an allowance build during the earlier quarter. The earlier quarter reflected significant uncertainty related to the economic impacts resulting from the pandemic, whereas the current quarter includes a reserve release due to the improving economic outlook. Noninterest income increased $35 million due to increases in wealth management income due to favorable market conditions in the current quarter, card and related fee income, and service charges on deposits, partially offset by lower residential mortgage income driven by lower gain on sale margins and volumes. Noninterest expense was stable compared to earlier quarter.

CB&W average loans held for investment decreased $6.8 billion, or 4.9%, for the third quarter of 2021 compared to the earlier quarter, primarily driven by lower residential mortgage and home equity lending, partially offset by increased indirect auto lending. Average total deposits increased $23 billion, or 10.4%, for the third quarter of 2021 compared to the earlier quarter primarily due to the impact of fiscal and monetary stimulus.

Corporate and Commercial Banking

C&CB net income was $1.1 billion for the third quarter of 2021, an increase of $489 million compared to the earlier quarter. Segment net interest income decreased $110 million primarily due to reduced funding credit on deposits, lower purchase accounting accretion, and a decline in average loans, partially offset by higher spreads on loans. The allocated provision for credit losses decreased $575 million primarily reflecting an allowance release in the current quarter, whereas the earlier quarter included an allowance build. The earlier quarter reflected significant uncertainty related to the economic impacts resulting from the pandemic, whereas the current quarter includes a reserve release due to the improving economic outlook. Noninterest income increased $145 million driven by investment banking income, commercial real estate income, and higher investment income (primarily valuation gains) from SBIC investments. Noninterest expense decreased $25 million primarily due to lower operating losses, operating lease depreciation, and lower allocated corporate expenses in the current quarter, partially offset by higher restructuring charges in the current quarter.

C&CB average loans held for investment decreased $17.6 billion, or 10.5%, for the third quarter of 2021 compared to the earlier quarter, primarily due to PPP loan forgiveness and lower line utilization in commercial loans, commercial real estate, and dealer floor plan. Average total deposits increased $8.8 billion, or 6.2%, for the third quarter of 2021 compared to the earlier quarter, primarily due to the impact of fiscal and monetary stimulus.

Insurance Holdings

IH net income was $105 million for the third quarter of 2021, an increase of $28 million compared to the earlier quarter. Noninterest income increased $128 million primarily due to acquisitions and higher property and casualty insurance production from strong organic growth. Noninterest expense increased $91 million primarily due to higher performance-based incentives and amortization of intangibles related to acquisitions.

Other, Treasury & Corporate

OT&C generated a net loss of $348 million in the third quarter of 2021, compared to a net loss of $340 million in the earlier quarter. Segment net interest income increased $135 million primarily due to lower net funding credits on liabilities to other segments and higher earnings in the securities portfolio from purchases to utilize excess liquidity. The allocated provision for credit losses increased $15 million which primarily reflects a smaller release in the reserve for unfunded commitments in the current quarter compared to the earlier quarter. Noninterest income decreased $153 million primarily due to a gain on sale of securities in the earlier quarter. Noninterest expense decreased $22 million primarily due to lower merger related charges in the current quarter and charitable contributions to the Truist Foundation and the Truist Charitable Fund in the earlier quarter, partially offset by higher incentive expense driven by executive incentive compensation and higher accruals reflecting the job regrading project in the fourth quarter 2020.

Nine Months of 2021 compared to Nine Months of 2020

Consumer Banking and Wealth

CB&W net income was $2.5 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, an increase of $306 million compared to the same period of the prior year. Segment net interest income decreased $325 million primarily due to reduced funding credit on deposits, lower purchase accounting accretion, and a decline in average loans. The allocated provision for credit losses decreased $796 million primarily due to an allowance release that was primarily driven by an improving economic outlook and lower net charge offs in the auto, home equity, card, and mortgage portfolios as well as lower loan balances. Noninterest income decreased $197 million, due to lower residential mortgage income driven by lower gain on sale margins and volumes, partially offset by increased revenues in wealth management and card and payment related activities resulting from improving economic conditions as well as gains from the divestiture of certain businesses. Noninterest expense decreased $120 million primarily due to lower salary expense, pension costs, amortization of intangibles, and occupancy expenses, partially offset by increased incentives tied to performance and related benefits expense in the current year.

CB&W average loans and leases decreased $7.6 billion, or 5.4%, at September 30, 2021, compared to the same period of the prior year, primarily due to lower residential mortgage loans and home equity lending, partially offset by increased mortgage warehouse and indirect auto lending. Average total deposits were up $25.7 billion, or 12%, at September 30, 2021, compared to the same period of the prior year, primarily due to the impact of fiscal and monetary stimulus.

Corporate and Commercial Banking

C&CB net income was $3.2 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, an increase of $1.8 billion compared to the same period of the prior year. Segment net interest income decreased $283 million primarily due to reduced funding credit on deposits, lower purchase accounting accretion, and a decline in average loans. The allocated provision for credit losses decreased $1.9 billion which reflects an allowance release driven by an improving economic outlook, lower net charge offs primarily in the commercial and industrial portfolio as well as lower loan balances. Noninterest income increased $570 million due to strong investment banking and trading income, commercial real-estate related income, increased lending related fees, income from strategic investments, and increased service charges on deposits. Noninterest expense decreased $174 million primarily due to lower operating lease depreciation, lower allocated corporate expenses, a reduction in LIHTC liability mark accretion, and reduced salary and equity based compensation expense, partially offset by higher incentives tied to performance and increased professional fees and outside processing expense.

C&CB average loans and leases decreased $14 billion, or 8.3%, at September 30, 2021, compared to the same period of the prior year, primarily due to lower line utilization in commercial loans, commercial real estate, and dealer floor plan. Average total deposits were up $12.5 billion, or 9.3%, at September 30, 2021, compared to the same period of the prior year, primarily due to the impact of fiscal and monetary stimulus.

Insurance Holdings

IH net income was $392 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, an increase of $84 million compared to the same period of the prior year. Noninterest income increased $304 million primarily due to higher property and casualty insurance production as well as acquisitions. Noninterest expense increased $198 million primarily due to commissions on higher production in the current year.

Other, Treasury and Corporate

OT&C generated a net loss of $1.3 billion in the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to a net loss of $758 million in the same period of the prior year. Segment net interest income decreased $84 million primarily due to lower net funding credits to other segments due to lower market rates partially offset by lower interest expense on borrowings. The allocated provision for credit losses decreased $124 million which primarily reflects changes in the reserve for unfunded commitments as well as an allowance release in the current year resulting from the improving economic outlook. Noninterest income decreased $304 million primarily due to a gain on the sale of non-agency MBS in the same period of the prior year, partially offset by income from assets held for certain post-employment benefits. Noninterest expense increased $448 million primarily due to charitable contributions to the Truist Foundation and the Truist Charitable Fund, as well as higher incremental operating expenses related to the Merger and higher restructuring charges in the current year, partially offset by the loss on early extinguishment of long-term debt in the same period of the prior year.

Analysis of Financial Condition

Investment Activities

The securities portfolio totaled $151.0 billion at September 30, 2021, compared to $120.8 billion at December 31, 2020. The increase was due primarily to increases in U.S. Treasury securities and MBS resulting from strong deposit growth resulting from fiscal and monetary stimulus.

As of September 30, 2021, approximately 2.9% of the securities portfolio was variable rate, excluding the impact of swaps, compared to 1.9% as of December 31, 2020. The effective duration of the securities portfolio was 5.6 years at September 30, 2021, compared to 4.0 years at December 31, 2020.

U.S. Treasury, GSE, and Agency MBS represents 98% of the total securities portfolio as of September 30, 2021 and more than 99% at December 31, 2020.

Total average loans and leases HFI $ 286,159 $ 288,575 $ 294,650 $ 302,860 $ 310,444

Average loans and leases held for investment for the third quarter of 2021 were $286.2 billion, down $2.4 billion, or 0.8%, compared to the second quarter of 2021.

Average commercial loans decreased $4.8 billion, or 2.8%, as $1.5 billion of average growth within the core commercial and industrial portfolio was more than offset by a $4.0 billion decrease in average Paycheck Protection Program loans (commercial and industrial), a $1.1 billion decrease in average dealer floor plan loans (commercial and industrial), a $796 million decrease in average CRE loans, and a $390 million decrease in average commercial construction loans. Approximately $600 million of senior care facility loans were transferred primarily from CRE to commercial and industrial at the beginning of August, which impacted the variances noted above.

Average consumer loans increased $2.3 billion, or 2.0%, primarily due to a $1.8 billion increase in residential mortgages due to increased capacity, lower prepayments, and the decision to balance sheet certain production from the correspondent channel, a $386 million increase in indirect auto loans primarily due to solid growth in the prime automobile segment, and a $315 million increase in other indirect loans primarily due to growth in recreational and power sports lending. Residential home equity and direct loans were up slightly due to solid growth from LightStream more than offsetting the decline in home equity lines of credit.

Nonperforming assets totaled $1.2 billion at September 30, 2021, up $12 million compared to June 30, 2021. Nonperforming loans and leases represented 0.40% of total loans and leases, up one basis point compared to June 30, 2021.

Performing TDRs were down $26 million compared to the prior quarter primarily due to declines in the residential mortgage and CRE portfolios.

Loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing totaled $1.9 billion at September 30, 2021, down $196 million compared to the prior quarter. The ratio of loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing as a percentage of loans and leases was 0.66% at September 30, 2021, down six basis points from the prior quarter. The decline in loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing was primarily in residential mortgages and student loans. Excluding government guaranteed loans, the ratio of loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing as a percentage of loans and leases was 0.03% at September 30, 2021, down one basis point from June 30, 2021.

Loans 30-89 days past due and still accruing of $1.8 billion at September 30, 2021 were stable compared to the prior quarter.

Problem loans include NPLs and loans that are 90 days or more past due and still accruing as disclosed in Table 10. In addition, for the commercial portfolio segment, loans that are rated special mention or substandard performing are closely monitored by management as potential problem loans. Refer to “Note 5. Loans and ACL” for additional disclosures related to these potential problem loans.

TDRs occur when a borrower is experiencing, or is expected to experience, financial difficulties in the near term and a concession has been granted to the borrower. As a result, Truist works with borrowers to prevent further difficulties and to improve the likelihood of recovery on a loan. To facilitate this process, a concessionary modification that would not otherwise be considered may be granted, resulting in classification of the loan as a TDR. In accordance with the CARES Act, Truist implemented loan modification programs in response to the COVID-19 pandemic in order to provide borrowers with flexibility with respect to repayment terms. Payment relief assistance provided by Truist includes forbearance, deferrals, extension, and re-aging programs, along with certain other modification strategies. The Company adopted certain provisions of the CARES Act and other regulatory guidance that provide relief from the requirement to apply TDR accounting to (1) certain modifications of federally backed mortgages upon request from the borrower, and (2) certain modifications of other non-federally backed mortgages for borrowers impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic that were less than 30 days past due at December 31, 2019. Refer to “Note 1. Basis of Presentation” in Truist’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 for the policies related to TDRs and COVID-19 loan modifications.

TDRs identified by SunTrust prior to the Merger date are not included in Truist’s TDR disclosure because all such loans were recorded at fair value and a new accounting basis was established as of the Merger date.

Truist monitors the performance of its home equity loans and lines secured by second liens similarly to other consumer loans and utilizes assumptions specific to these loans in determining the necessary ALLL. Truist also receives notification when the first lien holder, whether Truist or another financial institution, has initiated foreclosure proceedings against the borrower. When notified that the first lien is in the process of foreclosure, Truist obtains valuations to determine if any additional charge-offs or reserves are warranted. These valuations are updated at least annually thereafter.

Truist has limited ability to monitor the delinquency status of the first lien, unless the first lien is held or serviced by Truist. Truist estimates second lien loans where the first lien is delinquent based on historical experience; the increased risk of loss on these credits is reflected in the ALLL. As of September 30, 2021, Truist held or serviced the first lien on 30% of its second lien positions.

Total average deposits $ 402,728 $ 396,255 $ 383,185 $ 375,266 $ 372,211

Average deposits for the third quarter of 2021 were $402.7 billion, an increase of $6.5 billion, or 1.6%, compared to the prior quarter. Average noninterest bearing deposits grew 2.8% compared to the prior quarter and represented 35.2% of total deposits for the third quarter of 2021, compared to 34.8% for the prior quarter. Average interest checking and money market and savings grew 1.6% and 1.5%, respectively, compared to the prior quarter.

Average time deposits decreased 6.1% primarily due to the maturity of higher-cost personal accounts.

Borrowings

At September 30, 2021, short-term borrowings totaled $5.2 billion, a decrease of $866 million compared to December 31, 2020, due primarily to a decrease of $2.6 billion in short-term FHLB advances, partially offset by an increase of $1.4 billion in securities sold under agreements to repurchase.

Average short-term borrowings were $5.4 billion or 1.2% of total funding for the third quarter of 2021, as compared to $6.2 billion or 1.5% for the prior year. Average short-term borrowings decreased as a percentage of funding sources due to strong deposit growth. Long-term debt provides funding and, to a lesser extent, regulatory capital, and primarily consists of senior and subordinated notes issued by Truist and Truist Bank. Long-term debt totaled $37.8 billion at September 30, 2021, a decrease of $1.8 billion compared to December 31, 2020. During 2021, the Company had $5.8 billion of senior long term debt maturities and redemptions, partially offset by $2.3 billion of issuances of fixed rate senior notes with an interest rate of 1.27% to 1.89% maturing between 2027 to 2029 and issuances of $2.3 billion in variable rate senior notes maturing between 2024 and 2025. FHLB advances represented 2.3% of total outstanding long-term debt at September 30, 2021, compared to 2.2% at December 31, 2020. The average cost of long-term debt was 1.59% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, down 19 basis points compared to the same period in 2020.

Shareholders’ Equity

Total shareholders’ equity was $68.9 billion at September 30, 2021, a decrease of $2.0 billion from December 31, 2020. This decrease includes a decrease of $2.3 billion in AOCI, redemptions of $1.4 billion in preferred stock for Series F, G, and H, $2.1 billion in dividends, and $1.1 billion in repurchases of common stock, partially offset by $4.8 billion in net income. Truist’s book value per common share at September 30, 2021 was $46.62, compared to $46.52 at December 31, 2020.

Refer to “Note 10. Shareholders’ Equity” for additional disclosures related to preferred stock redemptions.

Risk Management

Truist maintains a comprehensive risk management framework supported by people, processes, and systems to identify, measure, monitor, manage, and report significant risks arising from its exposures and business activities. Effective risk management involves optimizing risk and return while operating in a safe and sound manner, and promoting compliance with applicable laws and regulations. The Company’s risk management framework promotes the execution of business strategies and objectives in alignment with its risk appetite.

Truist has developed and employs a risk taxonomy that further guides business functions in identifying, measuring, responding to, monitoring, and reporting on possible exposures to the organization. The risk taxonomy drives internal risk conversations and enables Truist to clearly and transparently communicate to stakeholders the level of potential risk the Company faces, both presently and in the future, and the Company’s position on managing risk to acceptable levels.

Truist Financial Corporation 59


Truist is committed to fostering a culture that supports identification and escalation of risks across the organization. All teammates are responsible for upholding the Company’s purpose, mission, and values, and are encouraged to speak up if there is any activity or behavior that is inconsistent with the Company’s culture. The Truist code of ethics guides the Company’s decision making and informs teammates on how to act in the absence of specific guidance.

Truist seeks an appropriate return for the risk taken in its business operations. Risk-taking activities are evaluated and prioritized to identify those that present attractive risk-adjusted returns, while preserving asset value and capital.

Compensation decisions take into account a teammate’s adherence to and successful implementation of Truist’s risk values and associated policies and procedures. The Company’s compensation structure supports its core values and sound risk management practices in an effort to promote judicious risk-taking behavior.

Truist employs a comprehensive change management program to manage the risks associated with integrating heritage BB&T and heritage SunTrust. The Board and Executive Leadership oversee the change management program, which is designed to ensure key decisions are reviewed and that there is appropriate oversight of integration activities.

Refer to Truist’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 for additional disclosures under the section titled “Risk Management.”

Market Risk

Market risk is the risk to current or anticipated earnings, capital, or economic value arising from changes in the market value of portfolios, securities, or other financial instruments. Market risk results from changes in the level, volatility, or correlations among financial market risk factors or prices, including interest rates, credit spreads, foreign exchange rates, equity, and commodity prices.

Effective management of market risk is essential to achieving Truist’s strategic financial objectives. Truist’s most significant market risk exposure is to interest rate risk in its balance sheet; however, market risk also results from underlying product liquidity risk, price risk, and volatility risk in Truist’s business units. Interest rate risk results from differences between the timing of rate changes and the timing of cash flows associated with assets and liabilities (re-pricing risk); from changing rate relationships among different yield curves affecting bank activities (basis risk); from changing rate relationships across the spectrum of maturities (yield curve risk); and from interest-related options inherently embedded in bank products (options risk).

The primary objectives of effective market risk management are to minimize adverse effects from changes in market risk factors on net interest income, net income, and capital, and to offset the risk of price changes for certain assets and liabilities recorded at fair value. At Truist, market risk management also includes the enterprise-wide IPV function.

Interest Rate Market Risk

As a financial institution, Truist is exposed to interest rate risk both on its assets and on its liabilities. Truist actively manages its interest rate risk exposure through the strategic repricing of its assets and liabilities, taking into account the volumes, maturities, and mix, with the goal of keeping net interest margin as stable as possible. Truist primarily uses three methods to measure and monitor its interest rate risk: (i) simulations of possible changes to net interest income over the next two years based on gradual changes in interest rates; (ii) analysis of interest rate shock scenarios; and (iii) analysis of economic value of equity based on changes in interest rates.

The Company’s simulation model takes into account assumptions related to prepayment trends, using a combination of market data and internal historical experiences for deposits and loans, as well as scheduled maturities and payments, and the expected outlook for the economy and interest rates. These assumptions are reviewed and adjusted monthly to reflect changes in current interest rates compared to the rates applicable to Truist’s assets and liabilities. The model also considers Truist’s current and prospective liquidity position, current balance sheet volumes, and projected growth and/or contractions, accessibility of funds for short-term needs and capital maintenance.

Deposit betas are an important assumption in the interest rate risk modeling process. Truist applies an average deposit beta (the sensitivity of deposit rate changes relative to market rate changes) of approximately 50% to its non-maturity interest-bearing deposit accounts when determining its interest rate sensitivity. Non-maturity, interest-bearing deposit accounts include interest checking accounts, savings accounts, and money market accounts that do not have a contractual maturity. Truist also regularly conducts sensitivity analyses on other key variables, including noninterest-bearing deposits, to determine the impact these variables could have on the Company’s interest rate risk position. The predictive value of the simulation model depends upon the accuracy of the assumptions, but management believes that it provides helpful information for the management of interest rate risk.

The following table shows the effect that the indicated changes in interest rates would have on net interest income as projected for the next 12 months assuming a gradual change in interest rates as described below.

(1) The Down 25 and 50 rates are floored at one basis point and may not reflect Down 25 and 50 basis points for all rate indices.

Rate sensitivity increased compared to prior periods, primarily driven by excess liquidity and hedging changes partially offset by an increase in the investment securities portfolio.

Management considers how the interest rate risk position could be impacted by changes in balance sheet mix. Liquidity in the banking industry has been very strong during the current economic cycle. Much of this liquidity increase has resulted in growth in noninterest-bearing demand deposits. Consistent with the industry, Truist has seen a significant increase in this funding source. The behavior of these deposits is one of the most important assumptions used in determining the interest rate risk position of Truist. A decrease in the amount of these deposits in the future would reduce the asset sensitivity of Truist’s balance sheet because the Company would increase interest-bearing funds to offset the loss of this advantageous funding source.

The following table shows the results of Truist’s interest-rate sensitivity position assuming the loss of demand deposits and an associated increase in managed rate deposits under various scenarios. For purposes of this analysis, Truist modeled the incremental beta of managed rate deposits for the replacement of the demand deposits at 100%.
Table 20: Deposit Mix Sensitivity Analysis
Gradual Change in Rates (bps) Base Scenario at September 30, 2021 (1) Results Assuming a Decrease in Noninterest-Bearing Demand Deposits
$20 Billion $40 Billion
Up 100 4.08 % 3.22 % 2.37 %
Up 50 3.15 2.52 1.90
(1) The base scenario is equal to the annualized hypothetical percentage change in net interest income at September 30, 2021 as presented in the preceding table.

Truist also uses an EVE analysis to focus on longer-term projected changes in asset and liability values given potential changes in interest rates. This measure allows Truist to analyze interest rate risk that falls outside the net interest income simulation period. The EVE model is a discounted cash flow of the portfolio of assets, liabilities, and derivative instruments. The difference in the present value of assets minus the present value of liabilities is defined as EVE.

The following table shows the effect that the indicated changes in interest rates would have on EVE:

Truist uses financial instruments including derivatives to manage interest rate risk related to securities, commercial loans, MSRs, and mortgage banking operations, long-term debt, and other funding sources. Truist hedges a portion of its AFS securities to reduce mark-to-market volatility within AOCI and also to increase its overall asset sensitivity position. As of September 30, 2021, the Company had $24.0 billion of pay-fixed swaps associated with this hedging program that are accounted for as fair value hedges. In the third quarter of 2021, this hedging program reduced net interest income by $17 million. Truist also uses derivatives to facilitate transactions on behalf of its clients and as part of associated hedging activities. As of September 30, 2021, Truist had derivative financial instruments outstanding with notional amounts totaling $329.9 billion, with an associated net fair value of $2.4 billion. See “Note 16. Derivative Financial Instruments” for additional disclosures.

LIBOR in its current form will no longer be available after 2021. For most tenors of U.S. dollar LIBOR, the administrator of LIBOR extended publication until June 30, 2023. Tenors used infrequently by Truist, including one week and two month U.S. dollar LIBOR and all non-U.S. dollar LIBOR, will cease publication at December 31, 2021, based on this guidance. Truist has U.S. dollar LIBOR-based contracts that extend beyond June 30, 2023. In accordance with regulatory guidance, production of new U.S. dollar LIBOR contracts will cease before the end of 2021. To prepare for the transition to an alternative reference rate, management formed a cross-functional project team to address the LIBOR transition. The project team performed an assessment to identify the potential risks related to the transition from LIBOR to a new index. The project team provides updates to Executive Leadership and the Board.

Contract fallback language for existing loans and leases is under review and certain contracts will need updated provisions for the transition. The Company has plans for impacted lines of business to remediate these contracts, train impacted teammates, and provide timely notice to impacted clients. Current fallback language used for new, renewed, and modified contracts is generally consistent with ARRC recommendations and includes use of “hardwired fallback” language, where appropriate. Truist continues to manage the impact of these contracts and other financial instruments, systems implications, hedging strategies, and related operational and market risks on established project plans for business and operational readiness for the transition. Market risks associated with this change are dependent on the alternative reference rates available and market conditions at transition. In 2020, Truist began offering SOFR-based lending solutions to wholesale and consumer clients and entered into SOFR-based derivative contracts. The Company has actively been using SOFR as a reference rate in various loan contracts and has originated approximately $3 billion of loans as of September 30, 2021 using this alternative reference rate. Truist expects SOFR to become a more commonly-used pricing benchmark across the industry and will offer additional SOFR based products during 2021. Other alternative reference rates, such as emerging credit sensitive rates, will be evaluated as additional alternatives for LIBOR. For a further discussion of the various risks associated with the potential cessation of LIBOR and the transition to alternative reference rates, refer to the section titled “Item1A. Risk Factors” in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Market risk from trading activities

As a financial intermediary, Truist provides its clients access to derivatives, foreign exchange and securities markets, which generate market risks. Trading market risk is managed using a comprehensive risk management approach, which includes measuring risk using VaR, stress testing, and sensitivity analysis. Risk metrics are monitored against a suite of limits on a daily basis at both the trading desk level and at the aggregate portfolio level, which is intended to ensure that exposures are in line with Truist’s risk appetite.

Truist is also subject to risk-based capital guidelines for market risk under the Market Risk Rule.

Covered Trading Positions

Covered positions subject to the Market Risk Rule include trading assets and liabilities, specifically those held for the purpose of short-term resale or with the intent of benefiting from actual or expected short-term price movements or to lock in arbitrage profits. Truist’s trading portfolio of covered positions results primarily from market making and underwriting services for the Company’s clients, as well as associated risk mitigating hedging activity. The trading portfolio, measured in terms of VaR, consists primarily of four sub-portfolios of covered positions: (i) credit trading, (ii) fixed income securities, (iii) interest rate derivatives, and (iv) equity derivatives. As a market maker across different asset classes, Truist’s trading portfolio also contains other sub-portfolios, including foreign exchange, loan trading, and commodity derivatives; however, these portfolios do not generate material trading risk exposures.

Valuation policies and methodologies exist for all trading positions. Additionally, these positions are subject to independent price verification. See “Note 16. Derivative Financial Instruments,” “Note 15. Fair Value Disclosures,” and “Critical Accounting Policies” herein for discussion of valuation policies and methodologies.

Securitizations

As of September 30, 2021, the aggregate market value of on-balance sheet securitization positions subject to the Market Risk Rule was $38 million, all of which were non-agency asset backed securities positions. Consistent with the Market Risk Rule requirements, the Company performs pre-purchase due diligence on each securitization position to identify the characteristics including, but not limited to, deal structure and the asset quality of the underlying assets, that materially affect valuation and performance. Securitization positions are subject to Truist’s comprehensive risk management framework, which includes daily monitoring against a suite of limits. There were no off-balance sheet securitization positions during the reporting period.

Correlation Trading Positions

The trading portfolio of covered positions did not contain any correlation trading positions as of September 30, 2021.

VaR-Based Measures

VaR measures the potential loss of a given position or portfolio of positions at a specified confidence level and time horizon. Truist utilizes a historical VaR methodology to measure and aggregate risks across its covered trading positions. For risk management purposes, the VaR calculation is based on a historical simulation approach and measures the potential trading losses using a one-day holding period at a one-tail, 99% confidence level. For Market Risk Rule purposes, the Company calculates VaR using a 10-day holding period and a 99% confidence level. Due to inherent limitations of the VaR methodology, such as the assumption that past market behavior is indicative of future market performance, VaR is only one of several tools used to measure and manage market risk. Other tools used to actively manage market risk include stress testing, scenario analysis, and stop loss limits.

The trading portfolio’s VaR profile is influenced by a variety of factors, including the size and composition of the portfolio, market volatility, and the correlation between different positions. A portfolio of trading positions is typically less risky than the sum of the risk from each of the individual sub-portfolios, because, under normal market conditions, risk within each category partially offsets the exposure to other risk categories. The following table summarizes certain VaR-based measures for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020. In the third quarter of 2021, one and ten day VaR measures declined from the same period of last year as heightened market volatility experienced during March 2020 aged out of the 12-month VaR look-back window.

Stressed VaR-based measures

Stressed VaR, another component of market risk capital, is calculated using the same internal models as used for the VaR-based measure. Stressed VaR is calculated over a ten-day holding period at a one-tail, 99% confidence level and employs a historical simulation approach based on a continuous twelve-month historical window selected to reflect a period of significant financial stress for the Company’s trading portfolio. The following table summarizes Stressed VaR-based measures:
Table 23: Stressed VaR-based Measures - 10 Day Holding Period

Average 52 31 55 31
Minimum 31 14 26 13
Period-end 57 46 57 46

Compared to the prior year periods, stressed VaR measures increased in the third quarter of 2021 primarily due to the normalization of market making inventory levels this year compared to the same periods of 2020 when inventory levels were lower due to the market volatility.

Specific Risk Measures

Specific risk is a measure of idiosyncratic risk that could result from risk factors other than broad market movements (e.g. default, event risks). The Market Risk Rule provides fixed risk weights under a standardized measurement method while also allowing a model-based approach, subject to regulatory approval. Truist utilizes the standardized measurement method to calculate the specific risk component of market risk regulatory capital. As such, incremental risk capital requirements do not apply.

VaR Model Backtesting

In accordance with the Market Risk Rule, the Company evaluates the accuracy of its VaR model through daily backtesting by comparing aggregate daily trading gains and losses (excluding fees, commissions, reserves, net interest income, and intraday trading) from covered positions with the corresponding daily VaR-based measures generated by the model. As illustrated in the following graph, there were no Company-wide VaR backtesting exceptions during the twelve months ended September 30, 2021. The total number of Company-wide VaR backtesting exceptions over the preceding twelve months is used to determine the multiplication factor for the VaR-based capital requirement under the Market Risk Rule. The capital multiplication factor increases from a minimum of three to a maximum of four, depending on the number of exceptions. All Company-wide VaR backtesting exceptions are thoroughly reviewed in the context of VaR model use and performance. There was no change in the capital multiplication factor over the preceding twelve months.

Model Risk Management

MRM is responsible for the independent model validation of all decision tools and models including trading market risk models. The validation activities are conducted in accordance with MRM policy, which incorporates regulatory guidance related to the evaluation of model conceptual soundness, ongoing monitoring, and outcomes analysis. As part of ongoing monitoring efforts, the performance of all trading risk models are reviewed regularly to preemptively address emerging developments in financial markets, assess evolving modeling approaches, and to identify potential model enhancement.

Stress Testing

The Company uses a comprehensive range of stress testing techniques to help monitor risks across trading desks and to augment standard daily VaR and other risk limits reporting. The stress testing framework is designed to quantify the impact of extreme, but plausible, stress scenarios that could lead to large unexpected losses. Stress tests include simulations for historical repeats and hypothetical risk factor shocks. All trading positions within each applicable market risk category (interest rate risk, equity risk, foreign exchange rate risk, credit spread risk, and commodity price risk) are included in the Company’s comprehensive stress testing framework. Management reviews stress testing scenarios on an ongoing basis and makes updates, as necessary, which is intended to ensure that both current and emerging risks are captured appropriately. Management also utilizes stress analyses to support the Company’s capital adequacy assessment standards. See the “Capital” section of MD&A for additional discussion of capital adequacy.

Liquidity

Liquidity represents the continuing ability to meet funding needs, including deposit withdrawals, repayment of borrowings and other liabilities, and funding of loan commitments. In addition to the level of liquid assets, such as cash, cash equivalents, and AFS securities, other factors affect the ability to meet liquidity needs, including access to a variety of funding sources, maintaining borrowing capacity, growing core deposits, loan repayment, and the ability to securitize or package loans for sale.

Truist monitors the ability to meet client demand for funds under both normal and stressed market conditions. In considering its liquidity position, management evaluates Truist’s funding mix based on client core funding, client rate-sensitive funding and national markets funding. In addition, management evaluates exposure to rate-sensitive funding sources that mature in one year or less. Management also measures liquidity needs against 30 days of stressed cash outflows for Truist and Truist Bank. To ensure a strong liquidity position and compliance with regulatory requirements, management maintains a liquid asset buffer of cash on hand and highly liquid unencumbered securities. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, Truist’s liquid asset buffer, as a percent of total assets, was 24.5% and 20.2%, respectively.

The LCR rule directs large U.S. banking organizations to hold unencumbered high-quality liquid assets sufficient to withstand projected 30-day total net cash outflows, as defined under the LCR rule. As of January 1, 2020, Truist is subject to the Category III reduced LCR requirements. Truist’s average LCR was 114% for the three months ended September 30, 2021, well above the regulatory minimum of 100%.

Effective July 2021, Truist became subject to final rules implementing the NSFR, which are designed to ensure that banking organizations maintain a stable, long-term funding profile in relation to their asset composition and off-balance sheet activities. At September 30, 2021, the Company was compliant with this requirement.

The ability to raise funding at competitive prices is affected by the rating agencies’ views of the Parent Company’s and Truist Bank’s credit quality, liquidity, capital, and earnings. Management meets with the rating agencies on a regular basis to discuss current outlooks. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, Fitch Ratings, S&P Global Ratings, DBRS Morningstar, and Moody’s Investors Service all affirmed their ratings and provided updates to their rating outlooks for the Company and the Bank as further detailed below.

On May 7, 2021, Fitch Ratings affirmed the ratings of the Parent Company and Truist Bank, and revised the rating outlook to “stable” from “negative.” The revision to the rating outlook reflects the rating agency’s view that the Company’s diverse business model and strategy execution will drive stable earnings performance that supports its credit ratings. The revised rating outlook also reflects increased confidence in a U.S. economic recovery, which reduces the likelihood of the downside scenario that was contemplated when Fitch Ratings revised the ratings outlook to “negative” in April 2020.

On May 24, 2021, S&P Global Ratings affirmed the ratings of the Parent Company and Truist Bank, and revised the rating outlook to “positive” from “stable”, citing the stabilization in U.S. economic trends and the easing industry risk in the U.S. banking system. The rating agency also noted that the positive outlook reflects the view that, as a merged entity, Truist’s better geographic diversity, increased market position, improved earnings power, and higher technology spending provide a sustainable competitive advantage, and that the financial and credit positives of the merged entity could outweigh the operational risks of integrating two large regional banks.

On June 10, 2021, DBRS Morningstar confirmed the ratings of the Parent Company and Truist Bank and revised the trend for all ratings to “positive” from “stable,” citing substantial progress to date with the Merger integration and the rating agency’s view that the impact of the economic fallout from the coronavirus pandemic on Truist’s asset quality and capital will continue to be manageable.

On July 12, 2021, Moody’s Investors Service upgraded Truist Bank’s long-term subordinated debt rating to A2 from A3, and downgraded Truist Bank’s long-term bank deposit rating to Aa3 from Aa2. The rating actions were driven by revisions to the rating agency’s advanced loss given failure analysis within its updated methodology published on July 9, 2021.

See the “Liquidity” section of MD&A in Truist’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 for additional information regarding credit ratings.
Parent Company

The Parent Company serves as the primary source of capital for the operating subsidiaries. The Parent Company’s assets consist primarily of cash on deposit with Truist Bank, equity investments in subsidiaries, advances to subsidiaries, and notes receivable from subsidiaries. The principal obligations of the Parent Company are payments on long-term debt. The main sources of funds for the Parent Company are dividends and management fees from subsidiaries, repayments of advances to subsidiaries, and proceeds from the issuance of equity and long-term debt. The primary uses of funds by the Parent Company are investments in subsidiaries, advances to subsidiaries, dividend payments to common and preferred shareholders, repurchases of common stock, and payments on long-term debt.

Truist Financial Corporation 65


See “Note 22. Parent Company Financial Information” in Truist’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 for additional information regarding dividends from subsidiaries and debt transactions.

Access to funding at the Parent Company is more sensitive to market disruptions. Therefore, Truist prudently manages cash levels at the Parent Company to cover a minimum of one year of projected cash outflows which includes unfunded external commitments, debt service, common and preferred dividends and scheduled debt maturities, without the benefit of any new cash inflows. Truist maintains a significant buffer above the projected one year of cash outflows. In determining the buffer, Truist considers cash requirements for common and preferred dividends, unfunded commitments to affiliates, serving as a source of strength to Truist Bank, and being able to withstand sustained market disruptions that could limit access to the capital markets. At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Parent Company had 36 months and 43 months, respectively, of cash on hand to satisfy projected cash outflows, and 20 months and 22 months, respectively, when including the payment of common stock dividends.

Truist Bank

Truist carefully manages liquidity risk at Truist Bank. Truist Bank’s primary source of funding is client deposits. Continued access to client deposits is highly dependent on public confidence in the stability of Truist Bank and its ability to return funds to clients when requested.

Truist Bank maintains a number of diverse funding sources to meet its liquidity requirements. These sources include unsecured borrowings from the capital markets through the issuance of senior or subordinated bank notes, institutional CDs, overnight and term Federal funds markets, and retail brokered CDs. Truist Bank also maintains access to secured borrowing sources including FHLB advances, repurchase agreements, and the FRB discount window. The following table presents a summary of Truist Bank’s available secured borrowing capacity and eligible cash at the FRB:
Table 24: Liquidity Sources
(Dollars in millions) Sep 30, 2021 Dec 31, 2020
Unused borrowing capacity:
FRB $ 51,457 $ 52,831
FHLB 52,459 52,274
AFS securities 120,462 93,623
Available secured borrowing capacity 224,378 198,728
Eligible cash at the FRB 14,674 13,437
Total $ 239,052 $ 212,165

At September 30, 2021, Truist Bank’s available secured borrowing capacity represented approximately 10.8 times the amount of wholesale funding maturities in one-year or less.

Contractual Obligations, Commitments, Contingent Liabilities, and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Refer to Truist’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 for discussion with respect to Truist’s quantitative and qualitative disclosures about its fixed and determinable contractual obligations. Truist’s commitments include investments in affordable housing projects throughout its market area, renewable energy credits, private equity funds, derivative contracts to manage various financial risks, as well as other commitments. Refer to “Note 14. Commitments and Contingencies,” “Note 15. Fair Value Disclosures,” and “Note 16. Derivative Financial Instruments” in this Form 10-Q, and “Note 16. Commitments and Contingencies” of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for further discussion of these commitments.

Capital

The maintenance of appropriate levels of capital is a management priority and is monitored on a regular basis. Truist’s principal goals related to the maintenance of capital are to provide adequate capital to support Truist’s risk profile consistent with the Board-approved risk appetite, provide financial flexibility to support future growth and client needs, comply with relevant laws, regulations, and supervisory guidance, achieve optimal credit ratings for Truist and its subsidiaries, and provide a competitive return to shareholders. Risk-based capital ratios, which include CET1 capital, Tier 1 capital, and Total capital are calculated based on regulatory guidance related to the measurement of capital and risk-weighted assets.

Truist regularly performs stress testing on its capital levels and is required to periodically submit the Company’s capital plans and stress testing results to the banking regulators. Management regularly monitors the capital position of Truist on both a consolidated and bank-level basis. In this regard, management’s overriding policy is to maintain capital at levels that are in excess of internal capital targets, which are above the regulatory “well capitalized” minimums. Management evaluates whether capital ratios calculated after the effect of alternative capital actions are likely to remain above minimums specified by the FRB for the annual CCAR process. Breaches of minimum targets prompt a review of the planned capital actions included in Truist’s capital plan.

Truist completed the 2021 CCAR process and received a SCB of 2.5% for the period October 1, 2021 to September 30, 2022. Truist increased the common dividend 7% during the third quarter of 2021 to $0.48 per share. Truist continues to target a CET1 ratio of approximately 9.75% over the near-term. As previously communicated, the Company expects to be able to, with appropriate approvals from its Board of Directors, deploy approximately $4 billion to $5 billion of capital (either in the form of share repurchases or acquisitions) between 3Q21 and 3Q22. During the third quarter of 2021, Truist completed the acquisition of Constellation Affiliated Partners and announced the acquisition of Service Finance, LLC, reducing the amount of capital deployment available for acquisitions or share repurchases to approximately $1 billion to $2 billion through 3Q22. Truist resumed repurchasing shares and expects to consume approximately $500 million of this capacity via share repurchases in the fourth quarter of 2021 reflecting the Company’s strong capital position, and the reduced integration risk with successful migration of heritage BB&T retail and commercial clients to the Truist ecosystem.

Critical Accounting Policies

The accounting and reporting policies of Truist are in accordance with GAAP and conform to the accounting and reporting guidelines prescribed by bank regulatory authorities. Truist’s financial position and results of operations are affected by management’s application of accounting policies, including estimates, assumptions, and judgments made to arrive at the carrying value of assets and liabilities, and amounts reported for revenues and expenses. Different assumptions in the application of these policies could result in material changes in the consolidated financial position and/or consolidated results of operations, and related disclosures. The more critical policies include accounting for the ACL, determining fair value of financial instruments, intangible assets, income taxes, and benefit obligations associated with pension and postretirement benefit plans. Understanding Truist’s accounting policies is fundamental to understanding the consolidated financial position and consolidated results of operations. The critical accounting policies are discussed in MD&A in Truist’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. Significant accounting policies and changes in accounting principles and effects of new accounting pronouncements are discussed in “Note 1. Basis of Presentation” in Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. Disclosures regarding the effects of new accounting pronouncements are included in the “Note 1. Basis of Presentation” in this report. Except for the item noted below, there have been no other changes to the significant accounting policies during 2021.

Intangible Assets

The Company performed a qualitative assessment of current events and circumstances, including macroeconomic and market factors, industry and banking sector events, Truist specific performance indicators, and a comparison of management’s forecast and assumptions to those used in its October 1, 2020 quantitative impairment test, concluding that it was not more-likely-than-not that the fair value of one or more of its reporting units is below its respective carrying amount as of September 30, 2021, and therefore no triggering event occurred that required a quantitative goodwill impairment test. If economic conditions deteriorate, or the COVID-19 pandemic’s effects prolong or worsen, it may be more-likely-than-not that the fair value of one or more of Truist’s reporting units falls below its respective carrying amount, which would require a quantitative goodwill impairment test.
