Exhibit 99.1
U.S. Bancorp Comments on Dodd-Frank Act Stress Test Results
July 1, 2025
MINNEAPOLIS---- U.S. Bancorp (NYSE: USB) commented on the results of the Federal Reserve’s Dodd-Frank Act Stress Test (DFAST) conducted in accordance with the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.
Based on the 2025 stress test results and current rule requirements, the company’s preliminary stress capital buffer (SCB) is 2.6 percent for the period beginning October 1, 2025, and ending on September 30, 2026. The SCB, when added to the Basel III Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) capital to risk-weighted assets ratio minimum of 4.5 percent, requires the company to maintain a CET1 ratio at or above 7.1 percent throughout this period.
The Federal Reserve has stated that it expects to finalize the SCB for all firms by August 31, 2025.
All U.S. Bancorp regulatory ratios continue to reflect strong capital levels and exceed “well-capitalized” requirements. The company’s CET1 capital to risk-weighted assets ratio using the Basel III standardized approach was 10.8 percent as of March 31, 2025.
U.S. Bancorp’s planned capital actions include a 4 percent increase in its quarterly common stock dividend from $0.50 to $0.52 per share, subject to approval by U.S. Bancorp's Board of Directors, effective in the third quarter of 2025. The Company plans to continue share repurchases under the Company’s existing $5 billion share repurchase program.
“The results of this year’s stress test demonstrate that we are well-capitalized, have a healthy balance sheet, and remain prepared to manage potential industry stress and withstand a severe economic downturn,” said Gunjan Kedia, President and CEO of U.S. Bancorp.
