Jamie Dimon, Chairman and CEO, commented on the financial results: “JPMorgan Chase delivered strong results this quarter with top-line growth in each of our businesses, demonstrating the power of our platform. The U.S. and the global economy continue to show strength, despite increasing economic and geopolitical uncertainties, which at some point in the future may have negative effects on the economy.”
                                                                                                                      Dimon added:  “In Consumer & Community Banking we attracted record net new money this quarter, driving client investment assets up 14%, and we saw continued double-digit growth in card sales and merchant processing volume. Our customer satisfaction across CCB is at or near all-time highs, and we continue to grow deposits faster than the industry, even as the pace slows with rising rates. In the Corporate & Investment Bank we maintained our leadership in Banking and Markets, including #1 in global IB Fees year-to-date. Mixed results in Fixed Income Markets were offset by strong performance in Equities. Commercial Banking delivered another strong quarter, and Asset & Wealth Management attracted positive flows across all asset classes.”
Dimon concluded: “We are extremely excited to be expanding again, as smart regulatory policy and a competitive corporate tax system help us to deliver on our commitment to invest in our customers and communities. We just opened our first branch in Washington, D.C., which is one of hundreds of new branches that we will be opening in new markets, including Philadelphia and Boston. And every time we open branches in a new market, we bring the full force of JPMorgan Chase to that community. In addition, we launched several innovative new products, including our digital investing platform, You Invest, and Sapphire Banking, which builds on our highly successful Sapphire brand. These investments highlight our focus on delivering long-term value to our customers across products and channels, and to our shareholders and communities.”

Discussion of Results:
Net income was $8.4 billion, an increase of 24%.
Net revenue was $27.8 billion, up 5%. Net interest income was $14.1 billion, up 7%, driven by the impact of higher rates which includes lower Markets net interest income, as well as loan and deposit growth. Noninterest revenue was $13.8 billion, up 3%, largely driven by higher Markets noninterest revenue and auto lease income, partially offset by markdowns on certain legacy private equity investments.
Noninterest expense was $15.6 billion, up 7%, predominantly driven by investments in the business and revenue-related costs, including higher compensation expense and auto lease depreciation, as well as investments in technology, marketing and real estate.
The provision for credit losses was $948 million, down from $1.5 billion in the prior year. The decrease was driven by the Consumer portfolio, largely reflecting net reserve releases in the current period versus a net build in the prior year.
The effective tax rate on a reported basis for the quarter was 21.6% compared to 29.6% in the prior year, reflecting the enactment of the Tax Cuts & Jobs Act (“TCJA”).

Discussion of Results:
Net income was $4.1 billion, an increase of 60%. Net revenue was $13.3 billion, an increase of 10%.
Consumer & Business Banking net revenue was $6.4 billion, up 18%, predominantly driven by higher net interest income as a result of higher deposit margins and balance growth. Home Lending net revenue was $1.3 billion, down 16%, driven by lower net servicing revenue, as well as loan spread and production margin compression. Card, Merchant Services & Auto net revenue was $5.6 billion, up 10%, driven by higher Card net interest income on margin expansion and loan growth, higher auto lease volumes, and higher Card noninterest revenue, reflecting lower acquisition costs, which were predominantly offset by lower net interchange income.
Noninterest expense was $7.0 billion, up 7%, predominantly driven by investments in technology and higher auto lease depreciation.
The provision for credit losses was $980 million, a decrease of $537 million, largely driven by a net reserve release of $100 million in the current quarter, compared with a build of $300 million in Card in the prior year. The current quarter included a reserve release of $250 million in the Home Lending purchased credit-impaired portfolio, reflecting continued improvement in home prices and delinquencies, largely offset by a reserve build of $150 million in Card driven by loan growth and higher loss rates, as expected. Net charge-offs were lower, predominantly due to a net recovery in Home Lending, which was largely driven by a loan sale.

Discussion of Results:
Net income was $2.6 billion, an increase of 3%. Net revenue was $8.8 billion, up 2%.
Banking revenue was $3.2 billion, up 4%. Investment Banking revenue was $1.7 billion, flat compared to a strong prior year, with overall share gains, reflecting higher equity underwriting fees offset by lower debt underwriting and advisory fees. Treasury Services revenue was $1.2 billion, up 12%, predominantly driven by higher interest rates and growth in operating deposits. Lending revenue of $331 million was flat.
Markets & Investor Services revenue was $5.6 billion, up 1%. Markets revenue of $4.4 billion was down 2% driven by Fixed Income Markets revenue, down 10%. Excluding the reduction in tax-equivalent adjustments as a result of the enactment of the TCJA, Markets revenue was up 1%, and Fixed Income Markets revenue was down 6%7. Fixed Income Markets revenue of $2.8 billion was down, reflecting mild weakness in Rates, Financing, Credit Trading and Securitized Products, as a result of compressed margins and tighter financing spreads in competitive markets. This decline was partially offset by increased activity levels in Emerging Markets, and in Commodities, by higher revenue compared to a challenging prior year. Equity Markets revenue was $1.6 billion, up 17%, with higher revenue across products, reflecting strong client activity. Securities Services revenue was $1.1 billion, up 5%, driven by higher interest rates and operating deposit growth, as well as higher asset-based fees from new client activity.
Noninterest expense was $5.2 billion, up 8%, predominantly due to a combination of higher legal expense, higher compensation expense largely driven by investments in technology and bankers, and higher volume-related transaction costs.
The provision for credit losses was a benefit of $42 million, driven by a net recovery related to a loan sale.

The provision for credit losses was a benefit of $15 million, driven by net recoveries.

Notes on non-GAAP financial measures and key performance measures:
Notes on non-GAAP financial measures

a.
In addition to analyzing the Firm’s results on a reported basis, management reviews Firmwide results, including the overhead ratio, on a “managed” basis; these Firmwide managed basis results are non-GAAP financial measures. The Firm also reviews the results of the lines of business on a managed basis. The Firm’s definition of managed basis starts, in each case, with the reported U.S. GAAP results and includes certain reclassifications to present total net revenue for the Firm and each of the reportable business segments on a fully taxable-equivalent (“FTE”) basis. Accordingly, revenue from investments that receive tax credits and tax-exempt securities is presented in the managed results on a basis comparable to taxable investments and securities. These financial measures allow management to assess the comparability of revenue arising from both taxable and tax-exempt sources. The corresponding income tax impact related to tax-exempt items is recorded within income tax expense. These adjustments have no impact on net income as reported by the Firm as a whole or by the lines of business. For a reconciliation of the Firm’s results from a reported to managed basis, see page 7 of the Earnings Release Financial Supplement.

b.
Tangible common equity (“TCE”), return on tangible common equity (“ROTCE”) and tangible book value per share (“TBVPS”), are each non-GAAP financial measures. TCE represents the Firm’s common stockholders’ equity (i.e., total stockholders’ equity less preferred stock) less goodwill and identifiable intangible assets (other than MSRs), net of related deferred tax liabilities. For a reconciliation from common stockholders’ equity to TCE, see page 9 of the Earnings Release Financial Supplement. ROTCE measures the Firm’s net income applicable to common equity as a percentage of average TCE. TBVPS represents the Firm’s TCE at period-end divided by common shares at period-end. Book value per share was $69.52, $68.85 and $66.95 at September 30, 2018, June 30, 2018, and September 30, 2017, respectively. TCE, ROTCE, and TBVPS are meaningful to the Firm, as well as investors and analysts, in assessing the Firm’s use of equity.

c.
Adjusted expense and adjusted overhead ratio are each non-GAAP financial measures. Adjusted expense excluded Firmwide legal expense of $20 million, $0 million and $(107) million for the three months ended September 30, 2018, June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, respectively. The adjusted overhead ratio measures the Firm’s adjusted expense as a percentage of adjusted managed net revenue. Management believes this information helps investors understand the effect of these items on reported results and provides an alternate presentation of the Firm’s performance.


Notes on key performance measures

d.
Estimated as of September 30, 2018. The Basel III regulatory capital, risk-weighted assets and capital ratios (which become fully phased-in effective January 1, 2019), and the Basel III supplementary leverage ratio (“SLR”) (which was fully phased-in effective January 1, 2018), are all considered key regulatory capital measures. The capital adequacy of the Firm is evaluated against the Basel III approach (Standardized or Advanced) that results, for each quarter, in the lower ratio (the “Collins Floor”). These measures are used by management, bank regulators, investors and analysts to assess and monitor the Firm’s capital position. For additional information on these measures, including the Collins Floor, see Capital Risk Management on pages 82-91 of the Firm’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, and pages 43-47 of the Firm’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2018.

e.
Core loans represent loans considered central to the Firm’s ongoing businesses; core loans exclude loans classified as trading assets, runoff portfolios, discontinued portfolios and portfolios the Firm has an intent to exit.
