The Corporation has entered into long-term credit protection agreements with FNMA and FHLMC on loans totaling $8.5 billion and $8.7 billion at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, providing full credit protection on residential mortgage loans that become severely delinquent. All of these loans are individually insured, and therefore the Corporation does not record an allowance for credit losses related to these loans.
Nonperforming Loans and Leases
Commercial nonperforming loans increased to $3.2 billion at March 31, 2024 from $2.8 billion at December 31, 2023 driven primarily by the commercial real estate office property type. Consumer nonperforming loans remained relatively unchanged
at $2.7 billion at March 31, 2024.
The following table presents the Corporation’s nonperforming loans and leases and loans accruing past due 90 days or more at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. Nonperforming loans held-for-sale (LHFS) are excluded from nonperforming loans and leases as they are recorded at either fair value or the lower of cost or fair value. For more information on the criteria for classification as nonperforming, see Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Principles to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation’s 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

At March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 residential mortgage included $140 million and $156 million of loans on which interest had been curtailed by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA), and therefore were no longer accruing interest, although principal was still insured, and $90 million and $96 million of loans on which interest was still accruing.
(2)Primarily relates to loans for which the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral less any costs to sell is greater than the amortized cost of the loans as of the reporting date.

Credit Quality Indicators
The Corporation monitors credit quality within its Consumer Real Estate, Credit Card and Other Consumer, and Commercial portfolio segments based on primary credit quality indicators. For more information on the portfolio segments, see Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Principles to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation’s 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Within the Consumer Real Estate portfolio segment, the primary credit quality indicators are refreshed loan-to-value (LTV) and refreshed Fair Isaac Corporation (FICO) score. Refreshed LTV measures the carrying value of the loan as a percentage of the value of the property securing the loan, refreshed quarterly. Home equity loans are evaluated using combined loan-to-value (CLTV), which measures the carrying value of the Corporation’s loan and available line of credit combined with any outstanding senior liens against the property as a percentage of the value of the property securing the loan, refreshed quarterly. FICO score measures the creditworthiness of the borrower based on the financial obligations of the borrower and the borrower’s credit history. FICO scores are typically refreshed quarterly or more frequently. Certain borrowers (e.g., borrowers that have had debts discharged in a
bankruptcy proceeding) may not have their FICO scores updated. FICO scores are also a primary credit quality indicator for the Credit Card and Other Consumer portfolio segment and the business card portfolio within U.S. small business commercial. Within the Commercial portfolio segment, loans are evaluated using the internal classifications of pass rated or reservable criticized as the primary credit quality indicators. The term reservable criticized refers to those commercial loans that are internally classified or listed by the Corporation as Special Mention, Substandard or Doubtful, which are asset quality categories defined by regulatory authorities. These assets have an elevated level of risk and may have a high probability of default or total loss. Pass rated refers to all loans not considered reservable criticized. In addition to these primary credit quality indicators, the Corporation uses other credit quality indicators for certain types of loans.
The following tables present certain credit quality indicators and gross charge-offs for the Corporation's Consumer Real Estate, Credit Card and Other Consumer, and Commercial portfolio segments by year of origination, except for revolving loans and revolving loans that were modified into term loans, which are shown on an aggregate basis at March 31, 2024.

Loan Modifications to Borrowers in Financial Difficulty
As part of its credit risk management, the Corporation may modify a loan agreement with a borrower experiencing financial difficulties through a refinancing or restructuring of the borrower’s loan agreement (modification programs). Effective January 1, 2023, the Corporation adopted the new accounting standard on loan modifications. Accordingly, March 31, 2024 balances presented in payment status tables represent loans that were modified over the last 12 months, and March 31, 2023 balances presented in payment status tables represent loans that were modified during the first quarter of 2023.
Consumer Real Estate
The following modification programs are offered for consumer real estate loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulties. These modifications represented outstanding residential mortgage and home equity loans of 0.03 percent and 0.04 percent at March 31, 2024, compared to 0.09 percent and 0.15 percent at March 31, 2023.
Forbearance and Other Payment Plans: Forbearance plans generally consist of the Corporation suspending the borrower’s payments for a defined period with those payments then due over a defined period of time or at the conclusion of the forbearance period. The aging status of a loan is generally frozen when it enters into a forbearance plan. At March 31, 2024, the amortized cost of residential mortgage loans that were modified through these plans during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 was $20 million and $158 million. The amortized cost of home equity loans that were modified through these plans during the same periods was $0 and $30 million. The weighted-average duration of the mortgage and home equity loan modifications was insignificant, ranging from 3 months to 9 months for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. If a borrower is unable to fulfill their obligations under the forbearance plans, they may be offered a trial offer or permanent modification.
Trial Offer and Permanent Modifications: Trial offer for modification plans generally consist of the Corporation offering a borrower modified loan terms that reduce their contractual payments temporarily over a three-to-four-month trial period. At March 31, 2024 and 2023, the amortized cost of residential
mortgage loans entering trial offer for modifications during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 was $53 million and $21 million. The amortized cost of home equity loans entering trial offer for modifications during both periods was $9 million. If the customer successfully makes the modified payments during the trial period and formally accepts the modified terms, the modified loan terms become permanent. Some borrowers may enter into permanent modifications without a trial period. In a permanent modification, the borrower’s payment terms are typically modified in more than one manner but generally include a term extension and an interest rate reduction. At times, the permanent modification may also include principal forgiveness and/or a deferral of past due principal and interest amounts to the end of the loan term. The combinations utilized are based on modifying the terms that give the borrower an improved ability to meet the contractual obligations. At March 31, 2024, the amortized cost of residential mortgage loans that were granted a permanent modification during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 was $58 million and $47 million. The amortized cost of home equity loans that were granted permanent modification during the same periods was $9 million and $10 million. The term extensions granted for residential mortgage and home equity permanent modifications vary widely and can be up to 30 years, but are mostly in the range of 1 to 20 years. The weighted-average term extension of permanent modifications for residential mortgage was 9.3 years and 7.7 years for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, while the weighted-average interest rate reduction was 1.28 percent and 1.50 percent. For the same periods, the weighted-average term extension of permanent modifications for home equity loans was 16.0 years and 12.1 years, while the weighted-average interest rate reduction was 2.84 percent and 2.37 percent. Principal forgiveness and payment deferrals were insignificant during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.
For consumer real estate borrowers in financial difficulty that received a forbearance, trial or permanent modification, there were no commitments to lend additional funds at March 31, 2024 and 2023.
The Corporation tracks the performance of modified loans to assess effectiveness of modification programs. During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, modified residential mortgage and home equity loans that defaulted were insignificant. The table below provides aging information as of March 31, 2024 for consumer real estate loans that were modified over the last 12 months and as of March 31, 2023 for consumer real estate loans that were modified during the first quarter of 2023.

Consumer real estate foreclosed properties totaled $90 million and $83 million at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The carrying value of consumer real estate loans, including fully-insured loans, for which formal foreclosure proceedings were in process at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, was $627 million and $633 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Corporation reclassified $30 million and $37 million of consumer real estate loans to foreclosed properties or, for properties acquired upon foreclosure of certain government-guaranteed loans (principally FHA-insured loans), to other assets. The reclassifications represent non-cash investing activities and, accordingly, are not reflected in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.
Credit Card and Other Consumer
Credit card and other consumer loans are primarily modified by placing the customer on a fixed payment plan with a significantly reduced fixed interest rate, with terms ranging from 6 months to 72 months. As of March 31, 2024, substantially all payment plans provided to customers had a 60-month term. In certain circumstances, the Corporation will forgive a portion of the outstanding balance if the borrower makes payments up to a set amount. The Corporation makes modifications directly with borrowers for loans held by the Corporation (internal programs) as well as through third-party renegotiation agencies that provide solutions to customers’ entire unsecured debt structures (external programs). The March 31, 2024 amortized cost of credit card and other consumer loans that were modified through these programs during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 was $231 million and $157 million. These modifications represented 0.11 percent and 0.08 percent of outstanding credit card and other consumer loans at March 31, 2024 and 2023. The financial effect of modifications resulted in a weighted-average interest rate reduction of 19.80 percent and 18.65 percent, and principal forgiveness of $28 million and $11 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.
The Corporation tracks the performance of modified loans to assess effectiveness of modification programs. As of March 31, 2024, defaults of modified credit card and other consumer loans over the last 12 months were insignificant. As of March 31, 2023, defaults of modified credit card and other consumer loans during the first quarter of 2023 were insignificant. At March 31, 2024, modified credit card and other consumer loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty over the last 12 months totaled $658 million, of which $537 million were current, $62 million were 30-89 days past due, and $59 million were greater than 90 days past due. At March 31, 2023, modified credit card and other consumer loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty during the first quarter of 2023 totaled $157 million, of which $109 million were current, $24 million were 30-89 days past due, and $24 million were greater than 90 days past due.
Commercial Loans
Modifications of loans to commercial borrowers experiencing financial difficulty are designed to reduce the Corporation’s loss exposure while providing borrowers with an opportunity to work through financial difficulties, often to avoid foreclosure or bankruptcy. Each modification is unique, reflects the borrower’s individual circumstances and is designed to benefit the borrower while mitigating the Corporation’s risk exposure. Commercial modifications are primarily term extensions and payment forbearances. Payment forbearances involve the Bank forbearing its contractual right to collect certain payments or payment in full (maturity forbearance) for a defined period of time. Reductions in interest rates and principal forgiveness occur infrequently for commercial borrowers. Principal forgiveness may occur in connection with foreclosure, short sales or other settlement agreements, leading to termination or sale of the loan. The table below provides the ending amortized cost of commercial loans modified during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

The deferral period for loan payments can vary, but are mostly in the range of 8 months to 24 months. The weighted-average interest rate reduction was 0.16 percent and 0 percent during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. Modifications of loans to troubled borrowers for Commercial Lease Financing and U.S. Small Business Commercial were not significant during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Corporation had commitments to lend $717 million and $534 million to commercial borrowers experiencing financial difficulty whose loans were modified during the period.
Loans Held-for-sale
The Corporation had LHFS of $8.6 billion and $6.0 billion at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. Cash and non-cash proceeds from sales and paydowns of loans originally classified as LHFS were $3.3 billion and $2.4 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. Cash used for originations and purchases of LHFS totaled $5.8 billion and $2.3 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. Also included were non-cash net transfers into LHFS of $0 and $459 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.
Accrued Interest Receivable
Accrued interest receivable for loans and leases and loans held-for-sale was $4.5 billion at both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and is reported in customer and other receivables on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
Outstanding credit card loan balances include unpaid principal, interest and fees. Credit card loans are not classified as nonperforming but are charged off no later than the end of the month in which the account becomes 180 days past due, within 60 days after receipt of notification of death or bankruptcy, or upon confirmation of fraud. During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Corporation reversed $205 million and $118 million of interest and fee income against the income statement line item in which it was originally recorded upon charge-off of the principal balance of the loan.
For the outstanding residential mortgage, home equity, direct/indirect consumer and commercial loan balances classified as nonperforming during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, interest and fee income reversed at the time the loans were classified as nonperforming was not significant. For more information on the Corporation's nonperforming loan policies, see Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Principles to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation’s 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K
Allowance for Credit Losses
The allowance for credit losses is estimated using quantitative and qualitative methods that consider a variety of factors, such as historical loss experience, the current credit quality of the portfolio and an economic outlook over the life of the loan.
Qualitative reserves cover losses that are expected but, in the Corporation's assessment, may not be adequately reflected in the quantitative methods or the economic assumptions. The Corporation incorporates forward-looking information through the use of several macroeconomic scenarios in determining the weighted economic outlook over the forecasted life of the assets. These scenarios include key macroeconomic variables such as gross domestic product, unemployment rate, real estate prices and corporate bond spreads. The scenarios that are chosen each quarter and the weighting given to each scenario depend on a variety of factors including recent economic events, leading economic indicators, internal and third-party economist views, and industry trends. For more information on the Corporation's credit loss accounting policies including the allowance for credit losses, see Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Principles to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation’s 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The March 31, 2024 estimate for allowance for credit losses was based on various economic scenarios, including a baseline scenario derived from consensus estimates, an adverse scenario reflecting an extended moderate recession, a downside scenario reflecting continued inflation and interest rates with minimal rate cuts, a tail risk scenario similar to the severely adverse scenario used in stress testing and an upside scenario that considers the potential for improvement above the baseline scenario. The overall weighted economic outlook of the above scenarios has improved compared to the weighted economic outlook estimated as of December 31, 2023. The weighted economic outlook assumes that the U.S. average unemployment rate will be just below five percent by the fourth quarter of 2024 and will remain near this level through the fourth quarter of 2025. The weighted economic outlook assumes sluggish growth in the first half of 2024 with U.S. real gross domestic product forecasted to grow at 0.6 percent and at 1.7 percent year-over-year in the fourth quarters of 2024 and 2025.
The allowance for credit losses decreased $180 million from December 31, 2023 to $14.4 billion at March 31, 2024, which included a $111 million reserve decrease related to the commercial portfolio and a $69 million reserve decrease related to the consumer portfolio. The reserve decrease was primarily driven by commercial due to an improved macroeconomic outlook. The change in the allowance for credit losses was comprised of a net decrease of $129 million in the allowance for loan and lease losses and a decrease of $51 million in the reserve for unfunded lending commitments. The decline in the allowance for credit losses was attributed to decreases in the commercial portfolio of $111 million, the consumer real estate
portfolio of $56 million, and the credit card and other consumer portfolios of $13 million. The provision for credit losses increased $388 million to $1.3 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023. The provision for credit losses for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was primarily driven by credit card loans and the commercial real estate office portfolio.
Outstanding loans and leases excluding loans accounted for under the fair value option decreased $3.9 billion during the
three months ended March 31, 2024 primarily driven by consumer loans, which decreased $5.7 billion driven by credit card, residential mortgage, and securities based lending. Commercial loans increased $1.7 billion driven by broad-based growth.
