M&T outlines 2025 performance and 2026 strategic priorities
MTB
Guidance Update
New Projects/Investments
Share Buyback
  • 16% year-over-year fee income growth in 2025, driven by mortgage, trust and treasury management products; overall performance bolstered by consumer and residential mortgage growth offsetting softer CRE, with disciplined expenses and ongoing credit improvements.
  • In early 4Q 2025, M&T expects to return to CRE loan growth, continued deposit and fee growth, expenses slightly above plan but within prior guidance, and further reductions in criticized and non-performing assets.
  • For 2026, NII is forecast to grow via both balance-sheet expansion and stable margins in the low 3.70% range; deposit beta remains ~50% on rate cuts, with additional Fed easing expected.
  • Technology investment has tripled over eight years, completing foundational projects (new general ledger, data centers, commercial credit factory) and now shifting to enhance customer-facing digital and servicing platforms across commercial, consumer and wealth.
  • Capital deployment priorities: maintain dividend payout in the low- to mid-30s percent range, M&A as first use of excess capital, and share repurchases (about 8.7% of shares in 2025) to drive CET1 toward the 10.75%–11% target.

  • Capital priorities include maintaining a low-mid 30% dividend payout (an 11% dividend increase in 2025), repurchasing 8.7% of shares in 2025, and prioritizing M&A then substantial 2026 buybacks.

M&T Bank outlines strategic priorities at BancAnalysts Association of Boston Conference
MTB
Share Buyback
New Projects/Investments
  • M&T is prioritizing data integrity and access to underpin vendor-provided AI solutions, with a focus on fundamental risk areas—credit, liquidity, and deposit behavior—to strengthen the bank’s core operations.
  • Recent regulatory easing is expected to boost sustainable ROEs by providing greater capital flexibility, and relief in compliance burdens could particularly benefit smaller banks.
  • The bank plans to deploy excess capital first into human and technical capabilities, remains cautious on loan growth, and has executed significant share buybacks; declining AOCI will gradually lower regulatory capital ratios to historical levels.
  • M&T supports enhanced transparency around system leverage through expanded disclosures, likely driven by examiners and industry initiatives rather than SEC rule-making.

Share Buyback
New Projects/Investments

  • On M&A, M&T holds no strict deal size limits but prioritizes cultural alignment and franchise fit over scale, maintaining its community-focused regional model rather than pursuing national expansion.
