Shares of F.N.B. Corporation FNB lost 5.7% in after-market trading following the release of its lower-than-expected third-quarter 2024 results. Adjusted earnings per share of 30 cents lagged the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 36 cents. Moreover, the bottom line reflected a decline of 15% from the prior-year quarter.Stay up-to-date with all quarterly releases: See Zacks Earnings Calendar.The results were primarily affected by higher expenses and lower net interest income (NII). Nonetheless, a higher non-interest income, lower provisions, and a rise in average loans and deposits balance offered some support.After considering significant items, net income available to its common stockholders was $110.1 million, down 23.2% year over year. Our estimate for the metric was $127.8 million.FNB’s Revenues Improve, Expenses RiseQuarterly net revenues were $413 million, up 1.2% from the year-earlier quarter. The top line surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $409.8 million.NII was $323.3 million, down 1% from the prior-year quarter’s actual. The fall was mainly due to higher deposit costs, partly offset by growth in earning assets and higher earning asset yields. Our estimate for NII was pegged at $319.7 million.Net interest margin (FTE basis) (non-GAAP) contracted 18 basis points (bps) year over year to 3.08%.Non-interest income was $89.7 million, which was up 10% on a year-over-year basis. This improvement was driven by a rise in almost all fee income components partly offset by a mortgage servicing rights impairment of $2.8 million and a decline in interchange and card transaction fees, capital markets income and other income. Our estimate for the metric was $89.2 million.Non-interest expenses were $249.4 million, up 14.4% year over year. Our estimate for the same was $223.4 million. After excluding significant items impacting earnings, adjusted expenses rose 7.4% to $234.2 million.As of Sept. 30, 2024, the common equity Tier 1 (CET1) ratio was 10.4% compared with 10.2% in the prior-year quarter.At the end of the third quarter, average loans and leases were $33.8 billion, up 1.6% on a sequential basis.

The company’s top line is expected to benefit from its efforts to increase fee income, diverse revenue streams and opportunistic acquisitions. However, persistently rising expenses and significant commercial loan exposures amid expectations of an economic slowdown are expected to hurt profits in the near term.F.N.B.
