SAN FRANCISCO October 14, 2020 – Wells Fargo & Company (NYSE:WFC) reported net income of $2.0 billion, or $0.42 per diluted common share, for third quarter 2020, compared with net income of $4.6 billion, or $0.92 per share, for third quarter 2019, and a net loss of $2.4 billion, or $0.66 per share, for second quarter 2020.
Chief Executive Officer Charlie Scharf said, “Our third quarter results reflect the impact of aggressive monetary and fiscal stimulus on the US economy. Strong mortgage banking fees, higher equity markets, and declining sequential charge-offs positively impacted our results, while historically low interest rates reduced our net interest income and our expenses continued to remain elevated. We continue to provide support for our customers having helped more than 3.2 million consumers and small businesses by deferring payments and waiving fees.”
“Our top priority continues to be the implementation of our risk, control, and regulatory work, but we are also taking targeted actions to improve the experience for our customers, clients, communities and employees. We expect that these actions will also improve our operational and financial performance,” Scharf added.
“As we look forward, the trajectory of the economic recovery remains unclear as the negative impact of COVID continues and further fiscal stimulus is uncertain, but we remain strong with our capital and liquidity levels well above regulatory minimums,” Scharf concluded.
Chief Financial Officer John Shrewsberry said, “Wells Fargo reported $2.0 billion of net income in the third quarter and diluted earnings per share of $0.42. While our net interest income declined in the third quarter, primarily due to the lower interest rate environment, we saw increases in several other income categories, including robust mortgage banking results. Our third quarter results also included a $718 million restructuring charge, predominantly related to severance expense, and $1.2 billion of operating losses, largely due to customer remediation accruals.”

Net Interest Income
Net interest income in the third quarter was $9.4 billion, down $512 million from second quarter 2020; the net interest margin was 2.13%, down 12 basis points from the prior quarter. The decline in net interest income was due to balance sheet repricing driven by the impact of the lower interest rate environment and balance sheet mix shifts into lower yielding assets including the impact of lower commercial loan balances, as well as higher mortgage-backed securities (MBS) premium amortization. These impacts were partially offset by higher variable sources of income and the benefit of one additional day in the quarter.

Noninterest Income
Noninterest income in the third quarter was $9.5 billion, up $1.5 billion from second quarter 2020. Third quarter noninterest income included higher mortgage banking income, trust and investment fees, deposit-related fees, and card fees, partially offset by lower gains from trading activities. Additionally, third quarter 2020 included $452 million related to a change in the accounting measurement model for certain nonmarketable equity securities from our affiliated venture capital partnerships (recognized in net gains from equity securities and other noninterest income).
Deposit-related fees were $1.3 billion, up from $1.1 billion in second quarter 2020, primarily due to higher debit card transaction volumes.
Trust and investment fees were $3.5 billion, up from $3.4 billion in second quarter 2020, driven by higher asset-based fees on retail brokerage advisory assets reflecting higher market valuations at June 30, 2020, partially offset by lower investment banking revenue.
Card fees were $912 million, up from $797 million in second quarter 2020, predominantly due to increased consumer spending.
Mortgage banking income was $1.6 billion, up from $317 million in second quarter 2020. Net mortgage servicing income was $341 million, up from a loss of $689 million in the second quarter, which included a negative valuation adjustment as a result of higher prepayment assumptions and higher expected servicing costs due to higher projected defaults. Net gains on mortgage loan production activities increased in the third quarter driven by higher residential held-for-sale mortgage loan originations and a higher production margin4. Held-for-sale mortgage loan originations increased to $48 billion in third quarter 2020 from $43 billion in the second quarter, and the production margin4 increased to 2.16% from 2.04%.
Net gains from trading activities were $361 million, down from a record $807 million in second quarter 2020, primarily due to lower fixed income trading results.

Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense in the third quarter was $15.2 billion, up $678 million from the prior quarter predominantly due to $718 million of restructuring charges predominantly driven by severance expense. Additionally, operating losses of $1.2 billion in third quarter 2020 were flat compared with second quarter 2020, and included $961 million of customer remediation accruals for a variety of matters.

4 Production margin represents net gains on residential mortgage loan origination/sales activities divided by total residential held-for-sale mortgage originations. See the “Selected Five Quarter Residential Mortgage Production Data” table on page 41 for more information.


- 4 -
Income Taxes
The Company’s effective income tax rate was 24.1% for third quarter 2020 and included net discrete income tax benefits primarily related to the resolution and reevaluation of prior period matters with U.S. federal and state tax authorities. The effective income tax rate in second quarter 2020 was 62.2%, which reflected the impact of annual income tax benefits, primarily tax credits, and included net discrete income tax benefits predominantly related to the resolution of prior period U.S. federal income tax matters.
Loans
Average loans were $931.7 billion in the third quarter, down $39.6 billion from the second quarter. Period-end loan balances were $920.1 billion at September 30, 2020, down $15.1 billion from June 30, 2020. Commercial loans were down $30.9 billion compared with June 30, 2020, predominantly due to a $29.2 billion decline in commercial and industrial loans as a result of lower loan demand and higher paydowns reflecting continued liquidity and strength in the capital markets. Consumer loans increased $15.8 billion from the prior quarter driven by a $17.0 billion increase in real estate 1-4 family first mortgage loans, as $14 billion of originations, $21.9 billion of loans repurchased from Ginnie Mae securitization pools (early pool buyouts), and a reclassification of $9.0 billion from held for sale to held for investment were partially offset by paydowns.

Debt and Equity Securities
Debt securities include available-for-sale and held-to-maturity debt securities, as well as debt securities held for trading. Period-end debt securities were $476.4 billion at September 30, 2020, up $3.8 billion from the second quarter driven by a $5.3 billion increase in debt securities available-for-sale and held-to-maturity, as purchases of approximately $40.1 billion, largely federal agency MBS, were partially offset by runoff and sales.
Net unrealized gains on available-for-sale debt securities were $4.3 billion at September 30, 2020, compared with $4.4 billion at June 30, 2020, as the impact of lower long-term interest rates was predominantly offset by tighter credit spreads.
Equity securities include marketable and nonmarketable equity securities, as well as equity securities held for trading. Period-end equity securities were $51.2 billion at September 30, 2020, down $1.3 billion from the second quarter.

Deposits
Period-end deposits were $1.4 trillion at September 30, 2020, down $27.5 billion from June 30, 2020. Total average deposits for third quarter 2020 were $1.4 trillion, up $12.4 billion from the prior quarter driven by growth in consumer deposits, partially offset by a decline in commercial deposits reflecting actions taken to manage under the asset cap. The average deposit cost for third quarter 2020 was 9 basis points, down 8 basis points from the prior quarter and down 62 basis points from a year ago.
Capital
The Company's CET1 ratio was 11.4%3 and continued to exceed both the regulatory minimum of 9% and our current internal target of 10%. As of September 30, 2020, our eligible external total loss absorbing capacity (TLAC) as a percentage of total risk-weighted assets was 25.8%5, compared with the required minimum of 22.0%.
Credit Quality
Credit results improved in third quarter 2020 as consumer delinquencies remained low, commercial loan criticized/ classified levels stabilized, and net charge-offs decreased. However, customer payment deferral activities instituted in response to the COVID-19 pandemic could delay the recognition of net charge-offs, delinquencies, and nonaccrual status for those customers who would have otherwise moved into past due or nonaccrual status.

Net Loan Charge-offs
The quarterly loss rate as a percentage of average loans in the third quarter was 0.29% (annualized), down from 0.46% in the prior quarter and up from 0.27% a year ago. Commercial and consumer losses were 0.29% and 0.30%, respectively. Total credit losses were $683 million in third quarter 2020, down $430 million from second quarter 2020. Commercial losses decreased $246 million driven by improved lending market conditions including strong capital markets. Consumer losses decreased $184 million driven by the impacts of government stimulus programs and customer accommodations including payment deferrals.

Nonperforming Assets
Nonperforming assets increased $378 million, or 5%, from second quarter 2020 to $8.2 billion. Nonaccrual loans increased $417 million from second quarter 2020 to $8.0 billion due to a $304 million increase in consumer nonaccrual loans driven by the residential real estate and automobile portfolios and a $113 million increase in commercial nonaccrual loans predominantly driven by the commercial real estate mortgage and lease financing portfolios.

Allowance for Credit Losses for Loans
At September 30, 2020, the allowance for credit losses (ACL) for loans, including the allowance for unfunded commitments, totaled $20.5 billion, relatively flat compared with June 30, 2020. While net charge-offs declined in third quarter 2020 and certain economic indicators showed improvement, the ACL reflected continued uncertainty due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The allowance coverage for total loans was 2.22%, compared with 2.19% in second quarter 2020. The allowance covered 7.5 times annualized third quarter net charge-offs, compared with 4.6 times in the prior quarter. The allowance coverage for nonaccrual loans was 255% at September 30, 2020, compared with 269% at June 30, 2020.

Business Segment Performance
Our operating segments are defined by product type and customer segment, and their results are based on our management reporting process. On February 11, 2020, we announced a new organizational structure. We continue to refine the composition of our operating segments and allocation methodologies. Additionally, we are still in the process of transitioning key leadership positions. We now expect to update our operating segment disclosures, including comparative financial results, in fourth quarter 2020. These changes will not impact previously reported consolidated financial results of the Company.

Noninterest expense of $8.9 billion increased $601 million, or 7%, driven by restructuring charges and higher operating losses reflecting increased customer remediation accruals for a variety of matters, partially offset by lower employee benefits expense including lower deferred compensation plan expense (largely offset in revenue by lower deferred compensation plan investment results)

Forward-Looking Statements
This document contains forward-looking statements. In addition, we may make forward-looking statements in our other documents filed or furnished with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and our management may make forward-looking statements orally to analysts, investors, representatives of the media and others. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “seeks,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “target,” “projects,” “outlook,” “forecast,” “will,” “may,” “could,” “should,” “can” and similar references to future periods. In particular, forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements we make about: (i) the future operating or financial performance of the Company, including our outlook for future growth; (ii) our noninterest expense and efficiency ratio; (iii) future credit quality and performance, including our expectations regarding future loan losses, our allowance for credit losses, and the economic scenarios considered to develop the allowance; (iv) our expectations regarding net interest income and net interest margin; (v) loan growth or the reduction or mitigation of risk in our loan portfolios; (vi) future capital or liquidity levels, ratios or targets; (vii) the performance of our mortgage business and any related exposures; (viii) the expected outcome and impact of legal, regulatory and legislative developments, as well as our expectations regarding compliance therewith; (ix) future common stock dividends, common share repurchases and other uses of capital; (x) our targeted range for return on assets, return on equity, and return on tangible common equity; (xi) expectations regarding our effective income tax rate; (xii) the outcome of contingencies, such as legal proceedings; and (xiii) the Company’s plans, objectives and strategies.
Forward-looking statements are not based on historical facts but instead represent our current expectations and assumptions regarding our business, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Our actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. We caution you, therefore, against relying on any of these forward-looking statements. They are neither statements of historical fact nor guarantees or assurances of future performance. While there is 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 in the forward-looking statements include the following, without limitation: 
current and future economic and market conditions, including the effects of declines in housing prices, high unemployment rates, U.S. fiscal debt, budget and tax matters, geopolitical matters, and any slowdown in global economic growth;
the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic, including on our credit quality and business operations, as well as its impact on general economic and financial market conditions;
our capital and liquidity requirements (including under regulatory capital standards, such as the Basel III capital standards) and our ability to generate capital internally or raise capital on favorable terms;
financial services reform and other current, pending or future legislation or regulation that could have a negative effect on our revenue and businesses, including the Dodd-Frank Act and other legislation and regulation relating to bank products and services;
developments in our mortgage banking business, including the extent of the success of our mortgage loan modification efforts, the amount of mortgage loan repurchase demands that we receive, any negative effects relating to our mortgage servicing, loan modification or foreclosure practices, and the effects of regulatory or judicial requirements or guidance impacting our mortgage banking business and any changes in industry standards;
our ability to realize any efficiency ratio or expense target as part of our expense management initiatives, including as a result of business and economic cyclicality, seasonality, changes in our business composition and operating environment, growth in our businesses and/or acquisitions, and unexpected expenses relating to, among other things, litigation and regulatory matters;
the effect of the current interest rate environment or changes in interest rates or in the level or composition of our assets or liabilities on our net interest income, net interest margin and our mortgage originations, mortgage servicing rights and mortgage loans held for sale;
significant turbulence or a disruption in the capital or financial markets, which could result in, among other things, reduced investor demand for mortgage loans, a reduction in the availability of funding or increased funding costs, and declines in asset values and/or recognition of impairments of securities held in our debt securities and equity securities portfolios;


- 13 -
the effect of a fall in stock market prices on our investment banking business and our fee income from our brokerage, asset and wealth management businesses;
negative effects from the retail banking sales practices matter and from other instances where customers may have experienced financial harm, including on our legal, operational and compliance costs, our ability to engage in certain business activities or offer certain products or services, our ability to keep and attract customers, our ability to attract and retain qualified employees, and our reputation;
resolution of regulatory matters, litigation, or other legal actions, which may result in, among other things, additional costs, fines, penalties, restrictions on our business activities, reputational harm, or other adverse consequences;
a failure in or breach of our operational or security systems or infrastructure, or those of our third-party vendors or other service providers, including as a result of cyber attacks;
the effect of changes in the level of checking or savings account deposits on our funding costs and net interest margin;
fiscal and monetary policies of the Federal Reserve Board;
changes to U.S. tax guidance and regulations, as well as the effect of discrete items on our effective income tax rate;
our ability to develop and execute effective business plans and strategies; and
the other risk factors and uncertainties described under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2020.
In addition to the above factors, we also caution that the amount and timing of any future common stock dividends or repurchases will depend on the earnings, cash requirements and financial condition of the Company, market conditions, capital requirements (including under Basel capital standards), common stock issuance requirements, applicable law and regulations (including federal securities laws and federal banking regulations), and other factors deemed relevant by the Company’s Board of Directors, and may be subject to regulatory approval or conditions.
For more information about factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations, refer to our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the discussion under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and available on its website at www.sec.gov13.
Any forward-looking statement made by us speaks only as of the date on which it is made. Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required by law.

Forward-looking Non-GAAP Financial Measures. From time to time management may discuss forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures, such as forward-looking estimates or targets for return on average tangible common equity. We are unable to provide a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures because we are unable to provide, without unreasonable effort, a meaningful or accurate calculation or estimation of amounts that would be necessary for the reconciliation due to the complexity and inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying future amounts or when they may occur. Such unavailable information could be significant to future results.

(1)Tangible common equity, return on average tangible common equity, and tangible book value per common share are non-GAAP financial measures. For additional information, including a corresponding reconciliation to GAAP financial measures, see the “Tangible Common Equity” tables on page 35.
(2)The efficiency ratio is noninterest expense divided by total revenue (net interest income and noninterest income).
(3)Pre-tax pre-provision profit (PTPP) is total revenue less noninterest expense. Management believes that PTPP is a useful financial measure because it enables investors and others to assess the Company’s ability to generate capital to cover credit losses through a credit cycle.
(4)For second quarter 2020 and the nine months ended September 30, 2020, diluted average common shares outstanding equaled average common shares outstanding because our securities convertible into common shares had an anti-dilutive effect.
(5)Consumer and small business banking deposits are total deposits excluding mortgage escrow and wholesale deposits.
(6)Book value per common share is common stockholders' equity divided by common shares outstanding. Tangible book value per common share is tangible common equity divided by common shares outstanding.
(7)In third quarter 2020, we began reporting headcount rather than active, full-time equivalent employees. Prior period balances have been revised to conform with the current period presentation.

(1)Tangible common equity, return on average tangible common equity, and tangible book value per common share are non-GAAP financial measures. For additional information, including a corresponding reconciliation to GAAP financial measures, see the “Tangible Common Equity” tables on page 35.
(2)The efficiency ratio is noninterest expense divided by total revenue (net interest income and noninterest income).
(3)Pre-tax pre-provision profit (PTPP) is total revenue less noninterest expense. Management believes that PTPP is a useful financial measure because it enables investors and others to assess the Company’s ability to generate capital to cover credit losses through a credit cycle.
(4)In second quarter 2020, diluted average common shares outstanding equaled average common shares outstanding because our securities convertible into common shares had an anti-dilutive effect.
(5)Consumer and small business banking deposits are total deposits excluding mortgage escrow and wholesale deposits.
(6)Book value per common share is common stockholders' equity divided by common shares outstanding. Tangible book value per common share is tangible common equity divided by common shares outstanding.
(7)In third quarter 2020, we began reporting headcount rather than active, full-time equivalent employees. Prior period balances have been revised to conform with the current period presentation.

Prior to January 1, 2020, pools of individual purchased credit-impaired (PCI) loans were excluded because they continued to earn interest income from the accretable yield at the pool level. With the adoption of ASU 2016-13, the pools were discontinued and performance is based on contractual terms for individual loans.
(2)Real estate 1-4 family mortgage loans predominantly insured by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) are not placed on nonaccrual status because they are insured or guaranteed.

TANGIBLE COMMON EQUITY

We also evaluate our business based on certain ratios that utilize tangible common equity. Tangible common equity is a non-GAAP financial measure and represents total equity less preferred equity, noncontrolling interests, goodwill, certain identifiable intangible assets (other than mortgage servicing rights (MSRs)) and goodwill and other intangibles on nonmarketable equity securities, net of applicable deferred taxes. These tangible common equity ratios are as follows:
Tangible book value per common share, which represents tangible common equity divided by common shares outstanding; and
Return on average tangible common equity (ROTCE), which represents our annualized earnings contribution as a percentage of tangible common equity.

The methodology of determining tangible common equity may differ among companies. Management believes that tangible book value per common share and return on average tangible common equity, which utilize tangible common equity, are useful financial measures because they enable investors and others to assess the Company’s use of equity.
The tables below provide a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP financial measures.

(1)Basel III capital rules, adopted by the Federal Reserve Board on July 2, 2013, revised the definition of capital, increased minimum capital ratios, and introduced a minimum Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) ratio. The rules are being phased in through the end of 2021. The Basel III capital requirements for calculating CET1 and tier 1 capital, along with RWAs, are fully phased-in.
(2)Determined by applying the combined federal statutory rate and composite state income tax rates to the difference between book and tax basis of the respective goodwill and intangible assets at period end.
(3)In second quarter 2020, the Company elected to apply a modified transition provision issued by federal banking regulators related to the impact of the current expected credit loss (CECL) accounting standard on regulatory capital. The rule permits certain banking organizations to exclude from regulatory capital the initial adoption impact of CECL, plus 25% of the cumulative changes in the allowance for credit losses (ACL) under CECL for each period until December 31, 2021, followed by a three-year phase-out of the benefits. The impact of the CECL transition provision on our regulatory capital at September 30, 2020, was an increase in capital of $1.9 billion, reflecting a $991 million (post-tax) increase in capital recognized upon our initial adoption of CECL, offset by 25% of the $11.5 billion increase in our ACL under CECL from January 1, 2020, through September 30, 2020.
(4)The final Basel III capital rules provide for two capital frameworks: the Standardized Approach and the Advanced Approach applicable to certain institutions. Accordingly, in the assessment of our capital adequacy, we must report the lower of our CET1, tier 1 and total capital ratios calculated under the Standardized Approach and under the Advanced Approach. Based on preliminary estimates, our CET1 ratio as of September 30, 2020, was lower under the Basel III Standardized Approach RWAs. Our CET1 ratio for June 30 and March 31, 2020, and December 31 and September 30, 2019, was lower under the Basel III Standardized Approach RWAs.

Wholesale Banking adjusted efficiency ratio for income tax credits We also evaluate our Wholesale Banking operating segment based on an adjusted efficiency ratio for income tax credits. The adjusted efficiency ratio for income tax credits is a non-GAAP financial measure and represents noninterest expense divided by total revenue plus income tax credits related to our low-income housing and renewable energy investments and related tax equivalent adjustments. Management believes that the adjusted efficiency ratio for income tax credits is a useful financial measure because it enables investors and others to compare efficiency results from both taxable and tax-advantaged sources on a consistent basis. The table below provides a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to GAAP financial measures.

The rules are being phased in through the end of 2021. The Basel III capital requirements for calculating CET1 and tier 1 capital, along with RWAs, are fully phased-in. (2) Determined by applying the combined federal statutory rate and composite state income tax rates to the difference between book and tax basis of the respective goodwill and intangible assets at period end. (3) In second quarter 2020, the Company elected to apply a modified transition provision issued by federal banking regulators related to the impact of the current expected credit loss (CECL) accounting standard on regulatory capital. The rule permits certain banking organizations to exclude from regulatory capital the initial adoption impact of CECL, plus 25% of the cumulative changes in the allowance for credit losses (ACL) under CECL for each period until December 31, 2021, followed by a three-year phase-out of the benefits. The impact of the CECL transition provision on our regulatory capital at September 30, 2020, was an increase in capital of $1.9 billion, reflecting a $991 million (post-tax) increase in capital recognized upon our initial adoption of CECL, offset by 25% of the $11.5 billion increase in our ACL under CECL from January 1, 2020, through September 30, 2020. (4) The final Basel III capital rules provide for two capital frameworks: the Standardized Approach and the Advanced Approach applicable to certain institutions. Accordingly, in the assessment of our capital adequacy, we must report the lower of our CET1, tier 1 and total capital ratios calculated under the Standardized Approach and under the Advanced Approach. Based on preliminary estimates, our CET1 ratio as of September 30, 2020, was lower under the Basel III Standardized Approach RWAs. Our CET1 ratio for June 30 and March 31, 2020, and December 31 and September 30, 2019, was lower under the Basel III Standardized Approach RWAs. Wells Fargo 3Q20 Supplement 29

(5) Amounts for December 31, 2019, and September 30, 2019, have been revised as a result of a decrease in RWAs under the Advanced Approach due to the correction of duplicated operational loss amounts.
