CMA's first-quarter 2025 results benefit from a rise in NII and non-interest income, along with a decline in expenses.

Although the revenue and EPS for Comerica (CMA) give a sense of how its business performed in the quarter ended March 2025, it might be worth considering how some key metrics compare with Wall Street estimates and the year-ago numbers.

Comerica Incorporated's Q1 results showed solid credit quality but weak deposit trends, with average deposits falling by $1.4 billion and a significant 5% annual decline. Despite cutting deposit costs aggressively, Comerica's strategy to maximize margins may hinder deposit growth, especially with the loss of the Direct Express contract. Loan demand remains soft, with average balances down $400 million, and commercial real estate exposure declining by $250 million amid economic uncertainty.

S&P 500 opens lower on Monday after a holiday weekend in which President Trump threatened to fire the head of the Federal Reserve.

Comerica Incorporated (CMA) came out with quarterly earnings of $1.25 per share, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.14 per share. This compares to earnings of $1.29 per share a year ago.
