New York, April 14, 2026 - Citigroup Inc. today reported net income for the first quarter 2026 of $5.8 billion, or $3.06 per diluted share, on revenues of $24.6 billion. This compares to net income of $4.1 billion, or $1.96 per diluted share, on revenues of $21.6 billion for the first quarter 2025.

Revenues increased 14%(6) from the prior-year period, driven by growth in each of Citi's five interconnected businesses(7) and Legacy Franchises in All Other, as well as the impact of foreign exchange translation, partially offset by a decline in Corporate/Other, also in All Other.

Net income was $5.8 billion, compared to $4.1 billion in the prior-year period, driven by higher revenues and a lower effective tax rate, partially offset by higher expenses and a higher provision for credit losses.

Earnings per share of $3.06 increased from $1.96 per diluted share in the prior-year period, reflecting higher net income and a lower share count due to share repurchases.

Percentage comparisons throughout this press release are calculated for the first quarter 2026 versus the first quarter 2025, unless otherwise specified.

Citi Chair and CEO Jane Fraser said, "We're off to an exceptionally strong start in 2026, with revenue up 14% and net income growing

42%. Services had an outstanding quarter with revenue up 17% and Markets crossed $7 billion in revenue. Banking continued to build momentum with fees up 12% amid a record first quarter in M&A. Wealth saw revenue grow 11% and continued to improve its returns and U.S. Consumer Cards saw 4% revenue growth and returns of nearly 20%. Our diversified business model continues to drive consistent revenue growth and we remain a source of financial strength and trust for our clients during uncertain times.

"We've entered into the final phase of our divestitures and 90% of our Transformation programs are now at or near our target state. We demonstrated our commitment to returning capital by repurchasing $6.3 billion shares during the quarter.

"We remain very much on track to deliver the 10-11% RoTCE target this year. I'm excited for next month's Investor Day where we'll discuss our path forward and how we will realize the significant upside Citi offers," Ms. Fraser concluded.

Citigroup

Citigroup revenues of $24.6 billion in the first quarter 2026 increased 14%, driven by growth in each of Citi's five interconnected businesses(7) and Legacy Franchises, as well as the impact of foreign exchange translation, partially offset by a decline in Corporate/Other. Net interest income increased 12%, driven by growth across each of Citi's five businesses and Legacy Franchises, partially offset by a decline in Corporate/Other. Non-interest revenue increased 17%, driven by growth across each of Citi's five businesses and All Other.

Citigroup operating expenses of $14.3 billion were up 7%(6), driven by higher compensation and benefits expenses, including higher severance, the impact of foreign exchange translation, and higher volume and other revenue-related expenses, partially offset by productivity savings, lower legal expenses, stranded cost reductions and lower transformation expenses in Corporate/Other.

Citigroup provision for credit losses was $2.8 billion, reflecting $2.2 billion of net credit losses and a net allowance for credit losses (ACL) build of $597 million, driven by portfolio quality, including seasonal mix changes, as well as increased uncertainty in the macroeconomic outlook, partially offset by refinements to loss assumptions and lower net lending activity. Net credit losses were down 10% from the prior-year period, driven by decreases in USCC and Markets, partially offset by an increase in Legacy Franchises. The provision in the prior-year period was $2.7 billion, reflecting $2.5 billion of net credit losses and a net ACL build of $264 million, driven by increased uncertainty in the macroeconomic outlook and portfolio quality, largely offset by lower net lending activity.

higher provision for credit losses. Citigroup's effective tax rate was approximately 21% in the current quarter compared to 25% in the first quarter 2025, largely driven by a discrete item in the current quarter.

Citigroup's total allowance for credit losses was $22.0 billion at quarter end, compared to $22.8 billion at the end of the prior-year period. Total ACL on loans was $19.6 billion at quarter end, compared to $18.7 billion at the end of the prior-year period, with a reserve-to-funded loans ratio of 2.6%, down from 2.7% in the prior-year period. Total non-accrual loans increased $0.7 billion, or 25% from the prior-year period to $3.4 billion. Corporate non-accrual loans increased $0.6 billion, or 42% from the prior-year period to $2.0 billion, driven by idiosyncratic downgrades in Banking and Services, partially offset by upgrades and repayments in Markets. Consumer non-accrual loans increased $0.1 billion, or 6% from the prior-year period to $1.4 billion.

Citigroup's end-of-period loans were $762 billion at quarter end, up 8% versus the prior-year period, primarily driven by higher loans in Markets and Wealth. Citigroup's average loans were $755 billion in the first quarter 2026, up 9% versus the prior-year period, primarily driven by higher average loans in Markets, Services and Wealth.

Citigroup's end-of-period deposits were approximately $1.4 trillion at quarter end, up 10% versus the prior-year period, driven by increases in Services.

Citigroup's book value per share of $112.22 at quarter end increased 8% versus the prior-year period, and tangible book value per share of $99.01 at quarter end also increased 8% versus the prior-year period. The increases were driven by net income and beneficial net movements in accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI), partially offset by the payment of common and preferred dividends and reductions in additional paid-in capital (APIC). In addition, common share repurchases were dilutive to tangible book value per share and book value per share. At quarter end, Citigroup's preliminary CET1 Capital ratio(4) was 12.7% versus 13.2% at the end of the prior quarter, primarily driven by common share repurchases, the payment of common and preferred dividends and higher risk-weighted assets, primarily offset by net income and the impact of Citi's sale of AO Citibank in Russia, mainly in currency translation adjustment in AOCI. Citigroup's Supplementary Leverage ratio(4) for the first quarter 2026 was 5.2% versus 5.5% at the end of the prior quarter. During the quarter, Citigroup returned approximately $7.4 billion to common shareholders in the form of share repurchases and dividends.

U.S. Consumer Cards (USCC) (7)

USCC revenues of $4.8 billion increased 4%, driven by growth in net interest income and non-interest revenue.

All Other (managed basis) revenues of $1.7 billion increased 15%, driven by growth in Legacy Franchises, largely offset by a decline in Corporate/Other.

All Other (managed basis) expenses of $2.1 billion decreased 4%, driven by lower legal expenses, lower transformation expenses, lower expenses related to closed exits and wind-downs and lower professional services expenses, primarily offset by higher severance and the impact of foreign exchange translation.

All Other (managed basis) provision for credit losses was $400 million, reflecting $371 million of net credit losses and a net ACL build of $29 million. Net credit losses were up 45% from the prior-year period, driven by higher consumer volume and portfolio seasoning in Mexico Consumer. The provision in the prior-year period was $359 million, reflecting $256 million of net credit losses and a net ACL build of $103 million, primarily driven by increased uncertainty in the macroeconomic outlook and higher volume in Mexico Consumer.

All Other (managed basis) net loss was $(494) million, compared to $(856) million in the prior-year period, driven by higher revenues and lower expenses, partially offset by a higher provision for credit losses.

(1) Ratios as of March 31, 2026 are preliminary. Citigroup's return on average common stockholders' equity (ROE) is calculated using net income less preferred stock dividends divided by average common stockholders' equity.

(2) Ratios as of March 31, 2026 are preliminary. Citigroup's allocated average tangible common equity (TCE) and return on average tangible common equity (RoTCE) are non-GAAP financial measures. RoTCE represents annualized net income available to common shareholders as a percentage of average TCE. For the components of these calculations and for a reconciliation of common equity to TCE, refer to the Citigroup Inc. Quarterly Financial Data Supplement for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 (the 1Q26 Financial Supplement), which is Exhibit 99.2 to Citigroup's Current Report on Form 8-K furnished with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on April 14, 2026.

As used herein, 2026 RoTCE is a forward-looking non-GAAP financial measure. From time to time, management may discuss forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures, such as forward-looking estimates or targets for revenue, expenses and RoTCE. Citi is unable to provide a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures because Citi is 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 for future results.

(3) Citigroup's payout ratio is the sum of common dividends and common share repurchases divided by net income

available to common shareholders.

(4) Ratios as of March 31, 2026 are preliminary. For the composition of Citigroup's CET1 Capital and ratio and

Citigroup's Supplementary Leverage ratio, refer to the 1Q26 Financial Supplement.

(5) Citigroup's tangible book value per share is a non-GAAP financial measure. For a reconciliation of common equity to tangible common equity and resulting calculation of tangible book value per share, refer to the 1Q26 Financial Supplement.

(6) Citi's first quarter 2026 and 2025 results did not include any notable items. Accordingly, Citi is not adjusting its results for these periods.

(7) As previously noted in Citi's Form 8-K furnished with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on April 3, 2026, the following reporting changes were implemented in the first quarter 2026:

Citi transferred its Retail Banking business from U.S. Personal Banking (USPB) to Wealth and integrated the remaining USPB businesses into a new U.S. Consumer Cards segment. As a result, the financial results, balance sheet, and tangible common equity (TCE) of the Retail Banking business are reported within the Wealth segment.

Citi updated its TCE methodology across the Services, Markets, and Banking segments to better align capital usage with the shared economic benefits of corporate lending to clients across these segments. This update eliminated the corporate lending revenue sharing arrangement among the segments.

Certain interest rate risk management activities within Markets were reclassified to Corporate/Other or reallocated among businesses within Markets. These changes impacted the results of the Markets segment and Corporate/Other.

Prior period results and TCE allocations for the segments referenced above were recast to reflect these reporting changes, while Citi's consolidated results and TCE remained unchanged.

(8) Prime balances are defined as clients' billable balances where Citigroup provides cash or synthetic prime brokerage services.

(9) Credit derivatives are used to economically hedge a portion of the Corporate Lending portfolio that includes both accrual loans and loans at fair value. Gain/(loss) on loan hedges includes the mark-to-market on the credit

derivatives and the mark-to-market on the loans in the portfolio that are at fair value. The fixed premium costs of these hedges are netted against the Corporate Lending revenues to reflect the cost of credit protection. Citigroup's results of operations excluding the impact of gain/(loss) on loan hedges are non-GAAP financial measures. For a reconciliation to reported results, refer to the 1Q26 Financial Supplement.

(10) All Other (managed basis) reflects results on a managed basis, which excludes divestiture-related impacts, for all periods, related to Citigroup's divestitures of its Asia consumer banking businesses and Mexico Consumer/SBMM businesses within Legacy Franchises. Certain of the results of operations of All Other (managed basis) and Legacy Franchises (managed basis) that exclude divestiture-related impacts are non-GAAP financial measures. For additional information and a reconciliation of these results, refer to the 1Q26 Financial Supplement.
