Kommentar von Wells Fargo im Wortlaut:

Interim Chief Executive Officer Allen Parker said, “In second quarter 2019, we recorded strong earnings and continued to make progress on our top priorities: focusing on our customers and team members; meeting the expectations of our regulators; and continuing the important transformation of our Company. The commitment of our team members to provide outstanding customer service was reflected in higher customer experience survey scores from our branches, continued growth in primary consumer checking customers, and an increase in referred investment assets as a result of the partnership between our Wealth and Investment Management team and our Community Banking team. During the second quarter, we formed a new Strategic Execution and Operations Office that will focus on achieving operational excellence across our businesses to enable us to execute more effectively on our regulatory priorities and further drive our transformation. Finally, our recent CCAR results demonstrated the strength of our diversified business model, our strong capital position, our sound financial risk management, and our commitment to return excess capital to our shareholders in a prudent manner. I’m confident that all our stakeholders will benefit from the transformational changes we are implementing as we work to build the most customer-focused, efficient, and innovative Wells Fargo ever.”

Chief Financial Officer John Shrewsberry said, “Wells Fargo reported $6.2 billion of net income in the second quarter and diluted earnings per share of $1.30. We grew period-end loans and deposits, as well as pre-tax pre-provision profit, compared with the first quarter and a year ago. Our credit quality remained solid with net charge-offs near historic lows. Additionally, our strong capital position was reflected in our 2019 Capital Plan, which includes an increase in our quarterly common stock dividend rate in third quarter 2019 to $0.51 per share from $0.45 per share, subject to board approval, as well as up to $23.1 billion of gross common stock repurchases during the four-quarter period beginning in third quarter 2019. ”
