“This year’s stress testing exercise highlighted the robust credit strength of Huntington’s balance sheet and our ability to withstand a severe economic downturn,” said Stephen D. Steinour, chairman, president, and CEO. “Our credit results demonstrated the benefit of our disciplined approach to credit and risk management, consistent with our aggregate moderate-to-low risk appetite through the cycle. We were pleased to extend our track record of modeled credit outperformance during the stress tests, which this year included assets added through our acquisition of TCF. Our capital levels remain strong, with robust liquidity, and we expect to expand pre-provision net revenue over the course of the year, consistent with our prior guidance. We continue to manage capital levels within our targeted operating range for Common Equity Tier 1 of 9-10% and will utilize our capital to fund organic growth to serve the needs of our customers and communities.”
