Bank of America puts up mixed results as net interest income misses analysts’ expectations

CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA, JUL 16 – Net interest income missed expectations amid a 23% decline in investment banking fees, while trading revenues are expected to grow to about $5 billion, analysts said.

  • On July 16, Bank of America announced its earnings for the second quarter of 2025, revealing a profit of $7.1 billion and revenue totaling $26.5 billion, which fell slightly short of analysts’ forecast of $26.7 billion.
  • The findings indicated heightened market fluctuations and a more reserved client base due to uncertainty caused by changing U.S. trade actions, international conflicts, and sustained high interest rates.
  • The wealth management divisions added approximately 6,300 new Merrill client relationships and 800 new clients at Bank of America Private Bank, with assets under management increasing by 13% compared to the previous year, reaching a total of $2 trillion.
  • CEO Brian Moynihan called the quarter "solid," highlighting consumer resilience, healthy spending, rising commercial borrower utilization, and strong trading revenue growth of 15%.
  • The bank intends to boost its dividend by 8%, reaching 28 cents per share starting in the third quarter, while its stress capital buffer is projected to decrease to 2.5%, reflecting cautious confidence amid economic uncertainty.
