Truist Q3 profit halves to $684M as revenue falls 16% amid balance sheet reset

Truist Financial reported a sharp drop in third-quarter profit as it worked through a balance sheet clean-up. Its shares rose 1.1% to about $47 on Friday. Revenue fell about 15.8% to $4,000 million from $4,751 million a year earlier. Net income, excluding extra items, fell about 49.3% to $684 million from $1,348 million. Earnings per share were $0.57, down from $1.05. Adjusted earnings per share were $1.16, with adjusted return on tangible common equity at 14.6%. Net interest margin held steady at 3.00%. Wealth management had its best quarter and deposits grew. Noninterest expense reached $3.1 billion, and net charge-offs stood at 77 basis points. The exits from RAC auto and LightStream cut risk, but commercial real estate exposure remains a concern.

Truist consumer banking chief exits in shakeup as bank sells $7.7B of LightStream loans

Truist consumer and small business banking chief Dontá Wilson is leaving the bank, six weeks into Mike Lyons' tenure as chief executive officer. Wilson was the last executive remaining from the 2019 SunTrust-BB&T merger that created Truist. Shimna Sameer, hired in July to lead wealth management, will take over consumer banking. Jeff Warner, a 25-year PNC veteran, joins as chief small business banking officer, and D. Steve Boland, a former Bank of America executive, becomes vice chair. All three report to Lyons. Truist also agreed to sell $7.7 billion of LightStream loans to Carlyle, expected to generate $7.2 billion in net proceeds. The deal should close in the fourth quarter and exits a non-core business, the bank said.

Rockefeller snags $1.2 billion Truist team in Florida.

Rockefeller snags $1.2 billion Truist team in Florida. October 16, 2026 (L to R) Gordon Kellam, Owen Wilson and Matthew Caras, who joined Rockefeller from Truist in Naples, Florida. Another billion-dollar team has left Truist Bank, this time for Rockefeller Global Family Office. The Kellam Group, which managed $1.2 billion in client assets, joined Rockefeller on Friday in Naples, Florida, according to a source familiar with the move. The team, led by Gordon B. Kellam, Owen M. Wilson and Matthew T. Caras, produced $7 million in revenue, the source said. They moved with support staff Erica Solas, Sumera Yousaf, Brad Cherkin and Charles Outlaw. The group had joined Truist by way of its BB&T predecessor. Kellam, who had been a producing complex manager at BB&T, started his career in 2001 and joined BB&T in 2013 from Merrill Lynch, according to BrokerCheck. Wilson and Caras, who have 14 and 33 years of experience, respectively, joined BB&T in 2017 from UBS and Wells Fargo. Their move extends a streak of departures from Truist. Earlier this month, a 13-person team managing $3 billion in assets left for Captrust Financial Advisors. In September, Rockefeller landed another Truist team with $1 billion in assets in North Carolina. The exits reflect the expiration of retention loans granted around the 2019 merger of BB&T and SunTruist, according to the source and a former Truist advisor who spoke on condition of anonymity. They also cited frustrations over tiered fee increases that advisors were responsible for implementing across client accounts. A Truist spokesperson declined to comment on the departure. For Rockefeller, the hire bolsters a Naples office established in May with a $1.2 billion Morgan Stanley team. The office is part of the southeast region led by Kristen Sario. As of June 30, Rockefeller oversaw $224 billion in client assets across its family office, investment management and investment banking units, according to its company website. Firms will be able to present projected returns as part of an update aimed at harmonizing marketing rules between Finra and the SEC. Oct 16, 2026 Oct 15, 2026 Oct 14, 2026 Oct 13, 2026
