Capital One Financial Corporation, a Delaware corporation established in 1994 and headquartered in McLean, Virginia, is a diversified financial services holding company with banking and non-banking subsidiaries. Capital One Financial Corporation and its subsidiaries (the “Company” or “Capital One”) operate as a global payments provider and diversified financial institution, delivering a broad array of financial products and services to consumers, small businesses and commercial clients through digital channels, branch locations, cafés and other distribution channels.
Capital One Financial Corporation’s principal operating subsidiary was Capital One, National Association (“CONA”). On May 18, 2025 (the “Closing Date”), Discover Financial Services (“Discover”) merged into Capital One and Discover Bank merged into CONA. See “Part II—Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Note 2—Business Combinations and Discontinued Operations” in our 2025 Form 10-K for additional information. The Company is hereafter collectively referred to as “we,” “us” or “our.” CONA is referred to as the “Bank.”
We offer credit cards, debit cards, bank lending, treasury management and depository services, auto loans, and other consumer lending products in markets across the United States (“U.S.”). We service banking customer accounts through digital channels and our network of branch locations, cafés, call centers and automated teller machines (“ATMs”). Additionally, through the acquisition of Discover, we acquired new products including personal loans as well as the Discover Network, the PULSE Network and Diners Club (collectively, the “Global Payment Network”).
We also offer credit card products and certain other services outside of the U.S. principally through Capital One (Europe) plc (“COEP”), an indirect subsidiary of CONA organized and located in the United Kingdom (“U.K.”), and through a branch of CONA in Canada. Both COEP and our Canadian branch of CONA have the authority to provide credit card loans. In addition, we offer Global Payment Network services globally.
Our consolidated total net revenues are derived primarily from lending to consumer and commercial customers net of funding costs associated with our deposits, long-term debt and other borrowings. We also earn non-interest income which primarily consists of discount and interchange income, net of reward expenses, and service charges and other customer-related fees. Our expenses primarily consist of the provision for credit losses, operating expenses, marketing expenses and income taxes.
Our principal operations are organized for management reporting purposes into three major business segments, which are defined primarily based on the products and services provided or the types of customers served: Credit Card, Consumer Banking and Commercial Banking. The operations of acquired businesses have been integrated into or managed as a part of our existing business segments. Certain activities that are not part of a business segment are included in the Other category, such as the management of our corporate investment portfolio and asset/liability positions performed by our centralized Corporate Treasury group and any residual tax expense or benefit beyond what is assessed to our business segments in order to arrive at the consolidated effective tax rate. The Other category also includes unallocated corporate expenses that do not directly support

the operations of the business segments or for which the business segments are not considered financially accountable in evaluating their performance, such as certain restructuring charges and Discover integration expenses.
•Credit Card: Consists of our domestic consumer card lending, personal loans, domestic small business card lending and international card businesses in the U.K. and Canada.
•Consumer Banking: Consists of our deposit gathering and lending activities for consumers and small businesses, national auto lending and services offered by the Global Payment Network.
•Commercial Banking: Consists of our lending, deposit gathering, capital markets and treasury management services to commercial real estate and commercial and industrial customers. Our customers typically include companies with annual revenues between $20 million and $2 billion.
Business Developments
We regularly explore and evaluate opportunities to acquire financial products and services as well as financial assets, including credit card and other loan portfolios, and enter into strategic partnerships as part of our growth strategy. We also explore opportunities to acquire technology companies and related assets to improve our information technology infrastructure and to deliver on our digital strategy. We may issue equity or debt to fund our acquisitions. In addition, we regularly consider the potential disposition of certain of our assets, branches, partnership agreements or lines of business.
Discover Acquisition
On February 19, 2024, the Company entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Capital One, Discover, a Delaware corporation and Vega Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”). On May 18, 2025, the Company closed the acquisition of Discover, pursuant to which (i) Merger Sub merged with and into Discover, with Discover as the surviving entity in the merger (the “Merger”); (ii) immediately following the Merger, Discover, as the surviving entity, merged with and into Capital One, with Capital One as the surviving entity in the second-step merger (the “Second Step Merger”); and (iii) immediately following the Second Step Merger, Discover Bank, a Delaware-chartered and wholly owned subsidiary of Discover, merged with and into CONA, with CONA as the surviving entity in the merger (the “CONA Bank Merger,” and collectively with the Merger and Second Step Merger, the “Transaction”).
For additional information on the Transaction, see “Part II—Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Note 2—Business Combinations and Discontinued Operations” in our 2025 Form 10-K.
Brex Acquisition
On April 7, 2026, the Company completed its previously announced acquisition of Brex Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Brex” and such acquisition, the “Brex acquisition”), pursuant to the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization, dated as of January 22, 2026 with Brex and certain other parties thereto. Brex offers businesses solutions to issue corporate cards, automate expense management and make secure, real-time payments. The Brex acquisition enhances the Company's offerings in the business payments marketplace. The total consideration paid to Brex shareholders for the acquisition was approximately $4.5 billion and included $2.6 billion of cash consideration and 10.6 million shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company with a fair value of $1.9 billion. The consideration is also subject to customary post-closing adjustments. Immediately following the completion of the Brex acquisition, the Company settled Brex's outstanding debt of $1.1 billion.

The following table presents selected consolidated financial data and performance from our results of operations for the first quarters of 2026 and 2025 and selected comparative balance sheet data as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. We also provide selected key metrics we use in evaluating our performance, including certain metrics that are computed using non-GAAP measures. We consider these metrics to be key financial measures that management uses in assessing our operating performance, capital adequacy and the level of returns generated. We believe these non-GAAP metrics provide useful insight to investors and users of our financial information as they provide an alternate measurement of our performance and assist in assessing our capital adequacy and the level of return generated. These non-GAAP measures should not be viewed as a substitute for reported results determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”), nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP measures that may be presented by other companies.

Financial Highlights
We reported net income of $2.2 billion ($3.34 per diluted common share) on total net revenue of $15.2 billion for the first quarter of 2026. In comparison, we reported net income of $1.4 billion ($3.45 per diluted common share) on total net revenue of $10.0 billion for the first quarter of 2025.
Our common equity Tier 1 (“CET1”) capital ratio as calculated under the Basel III standardized approach was 14.4% and 14.3% as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. See “Capital Management” for additional information.
In the first quarter of 2026, we declared and paid common stock dividends of $505 million and repurchased $2.5 billion of shares of our common stock. See “Capital Management—Dividend Policy and Stock Purchases” for additional information.
Below are additional highlights of our performance in the first quarter of 2026. These highlights are based on a comparison between the results of the first quarters of 2026 and 2025, except as otherwise noted. Highlights related to changes in our financial condition and credit performance are based on March 31, 2026 compared to December 31, 2025. We provide a more detailed discussion of our financial performance in the sections following this “Executive Summary.”
Total Company Performance
•Earnings:
Our net income increased by $770 million to $2.2 billion in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025 primarily driven by:
◦Higher net interest income primarily driven by higher average credit card loan balances, largely due to the addition of Discover.
◦Higher non-interest income primarily driven by growth in our credit card loan portfolio, largely due to the addition of Discover.
These drivers were partially offset by:
◦Higher provision for credit losses primarily driven by higher net losses in our credit card loan portfolio, largely due to the addition of Discover.
◦Higher non-interest expense primarily driven by the addition of Discover, amortization of the intangibles recognized in the Transaction and higher Discover integration expenses.
•Loans Held for Investment:
◦Loans held for investment decreased by $5.9 billion to $447.8 billion as of March 31, 2026 compared to December 31, 2025 primarily driven by seasonal paydowns in our credit card loan portfolio, partially offset by growth in our auto loan portfolio.
◦Average loans held for investment increased by $123.9 billion to $446.2 billion in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025 primarily driven by the addition of Discover.
•Net Charge-Off and Delinquency Metrics:
◦Our net charge-off rate increased by 5 basis points (“bps”) to 3.45% in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025.
◦Our 30+ day delinquency rate decreased by 35 bps to 3.24% as of March 31, 2026 from December 31, 2025.

•Allowance for Credit Losses: Our allowance for credit losses increased by $221 million to $23.6 billion as of March 31, 2026 compared to December 31, 2025 primarily driven by allowance builds in our auto and commercial businesses. Our allowance coverage ratio increased by 12 bps to 5.28% as of March 31, 2026 compared to December 31, 2025 primarily driven by seasonally lower loan balances and a substantially flat allowance for credit losses on our credit card loan portfolio.

CONSOLIDATED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
The section below provides a comparative discussion of our consolidated financial performance for the first quarters of 2026 and 2025. We provide a discussion of our business segment results in the following section, “Business Segment Financial Performance.” This section should be read together with our “Executive Summary,” where we discuss trends and other factors that we expect will affect our future results of operations.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income represents the difference between interest income, including certain fees, earned on our interest-earning assets and the interest expense incurred on our interest-bearing liabilities. Our interest-earning assets include loans, investment securities and other interest-earning assets, while our interest-bearing liabilities include interest-bearing deposits, securitized debt obligations, senior and subordinated notes, other borrowings and other interest-bearing liabilities. Generally, we include in interest income any past due fees, net of reversals, on loans that we deem collectible. Our net interest margin represents the difference between the yield on our interest-earning assets and the cost of our interest-bearing liabilities, including the notional impact of non-interest-bearing funding and excluding discontinued operations. We expect net interest income and our net interest margin to fluctuate based on changes in interest rates and changes in the amount and composition of our interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Loans, other assets and liabilities associated with discontinued operations, and their related income and expense, are excluded from the net interest margin calculation.

Net interest income increased by $4.1 billion to $12.1 billion in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025 primarily driven by higher average credit card loan balances, largely due to the addition of Discover.
Net interest margin increased by 94 bps to 7.87% in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025 primarily driven by higher average credit card loan balances, largely due to the addition of Discover.
Our total company cumulative interest-bearing deposit beta increased to 32% as of March 31, 2026, from 23% as of December 31, 2025. We define cumulative deposit beta as the ratio of changes in the average rate paid on our average interest-bearing deposits to changes in the upper bound of the federal funds rate during the falling interest rate cycle.

__________(1)We calculate the change in interest income and interest expense separately for each item. The portion of interest income or interest expense attributable to both volume and rate is allocated proportionately when the calculation results in a positive value. When the portion of interest income or interest expense attributable to both volume and rate results in a negative value, the total amount is allocated to volume or rate, depending on which amount is positive. The portion of interest income or interest expense attributable to both volume and rate is calculated using rounded dollars in millions for average balances and interest income/expense.

(1)Primarily consists of revenue from Capital One Shopping, treasury income and auto industry services.
(2)Includes losses of $18 million and $16 million on deferred compensation plan investments in the first quarters of 2026 and 2025, respectively. These amounts have corresponding offsets in non-interest expense.
Non-interest income increased by $1.1 billion to $3.1 billion in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025 primarily driven by growth in our credit card loan portfolio, largely due to the addition of Discover.
Provision for Credit Losses
Our provision for credit losses in each period is driven by net charge-offs, changes to the allowance for credit losses and changes to the reserve for unfunded lending commitments. Our provision for credit losses increased by $1.7 billion to $4.1 billion in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025 primarily driven by higher net charge-offs in our credit card loan portfolio, largely due to the addition of Discover.
We provide additional information on the provision for credit losses and changes in the allowance for credit losses within “Credit Risk Profile” and “Part I—Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 5—Allowance for Credit Losses and Reserve for Unfunded Lending Commitments.” For information on the allowance methodology, see “Part II—Item 8.

_________(1)Includes benefits of $18 million and $16 million related to our deferred compensation plan investments for the first quarters of 2026 and 2025, respectively. These amounts have corresponding offsets from investments in other non-interest income.
Non-interest expense increased by $2.6 billion to $8.5 billion in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025 primarily driven by the addition of Discover, amortization of the intangibles recognized in the Transaction and higher Discover integration expenses.
Discover integration expenses increased by $305 million to $415 million in the first quarter of 2026 primarily driven by higher salaries and associate benefits, which are included within operating expense in our consolidated statements of income. Since the announcement of the Transaction in the first quarter of 2024, we have incurred $1.8 billion of Discover integration expenses as of March 31, 2026.

Income Taxes
We recorded an income tax expense of $518 million (19.2% effective income tax rate) and $325 million (18.8% effective income tax rate) in the first quarters of 2026 and 2025, respectively. Our effective tax rate on income from continuing operations varies between periods due, in part, to the impact of changes in pre-tax income and changes in tax credits, tax-exempt income and non-deductible expenses relative to our pre-tax earnings.

CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEETS ANALYSIS |
Total assets increased by $13.9 billion to $682.9 billion as of March 31, 2026 from December 31, 2025 primarily driven by increases in our cash balances from deposit growth and seasonal paydowns in our credit card loan portfolio.
Total liabilities increased by $15.3 billion to $570.6 billion as of March 31, 2026 from December 31, 2025 primarily driven by continued deposit growth from our national banking strategy.
Stockholders’ equity decreased by $1.4 billion to $112.3 billion as of March 31, 2026 from December 31, 2025 primarily driven by purchases of treasury stock and stock dividends, partially offset by an increase in net income.
The following is a discussion of material changes in the major components of our assets and liabilities during the first quarter of 2026. Period-end balance sheet amounts may vary from average balance sheet amounts due to the timing of normal balance sheet management activities that are intended to support our capital and liquidity positions, our market risk profile and the needs of our customers.
Investment Securities
Our investment securities portfolio consists of the following debt securities: U.S. government-sponsored enterprise or agency (“GSE” or “Agency”) and non-agency residential mortgage-backed securities (“RMBS”), agency commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”), U.S. Treasury securities and other debt securities. Agency securities include securities guaranteed by the Government National Mortgage Association (“Ginnie Mae”) and securities issued by the Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”). The carrying value of our investments in Agency and U.S. Treasury securities represented 96% and 97% of our total investment securities portfolio as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
The carrying value of our investment securities portfolio increased by $1.3 billion to $92.3 billion as of March 31, 2026 from December 31, 2025 primarily driven by net purchases.
Loans Held for Investment
Total loans held for investment consists of both unsecuritized loans and loans held in our consolidated trusts. Table 6 summarizes by segment the carrying value of our loans held for investment, the allowance for credit losses and net loan balance as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

Funding Sources
Our funding sources include deposits, senior and subordinated notes, securitized debt obligations, federal funds purchased, securities loaned or sold under agreements to repurchase and advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) secured by certain portions of our loan and securities portfolios. Insured deposits in our Consumer Banking business represent our primary source of funding, as they are a relatively stable and low cost source of funding.
Table 7 provides the composition of our primary sources of funding as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

__________(1)Includes brokered deposits of $18.5 billion and $19.2 billion as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
Total deposits increased by $13.3 billion to $489.1 billion as of March 31, 2026 from December 31, 2025 primarily driven by continued growth from our national banking strategy.
As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we held $73.6 billion and $71.9 billion, respectively, of estimated uninsured deposits. These amounts were primarily comprised of checking and savings deposits. These estimated uninsured deposits comprised approximately 15% of our total deposits as of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. We estimate our uninsured amounts based on methodologies and assumptions used for our “Consolidated Reports of Condition and Income” Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (“FFIEC”) 031 filed with the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (“Federal Reserve”), the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”) and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”), hereafter collectively referred to as the “Federal Banking Agencies,” adjusted to exclude intercompany balances and cash collateral received on certain derivative contracts which are not presented within deposits on our consolidated balance sheet.
Securitized debt obligations decreased by $1.6 billion to $11.3 billion as of March 31, 2026 from December 31, 2025 primarily driven by maturities and paydowns.
Other debt increased by $2.5 billion to $40.6 billion as of March 31, 2026 from December 31, 2025 primarily driven by net issuances of unsecured senior debt.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS |
In the ordinary course of business, we engage in certain activities that are not reflected on our consolidated balance sheets, generally referred to as off-balance sheet arrangements. These activities typically involve transactions with unconsolidated variable interest entities (“VIEs”) as well as other arrangements, such as letters of credit, loan commitments and guarantees, to meet the financing needs of our customers and support their ongoing operations. We provide additional information regarding these types of activities in “Part I—Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 6—Variable Interest Entities and Securitizations” and “Part I—Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 14—Commitments, Contingencies, Guarantees and Others.”

BUSINESS SEGMENT FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE |
Our principal operations are organized for management reporting purposes into three major business segments, which are defined primarily based on the products and services provided or the types of customer served: Credit Card, Consumer Banking and Commercial Banking. The operations of acquired businesses have been integrated into or managed as a part of our existing business segments. Certain activities that are not part of a business segment are included in the Other category, such as the management of our corporate investment portfolio and asset/liability positions performed by our centralized Corporate Treasury group and any residual tax expense or benefit beyond what is assessed to our business segments in order to arrive at the consolidated effective tax rate. The Other category also includes unallocated corporate expenses that do not directly support the operations of the business segments or for which the business segments are not considered financially accountable in evaluating their performance, such as certain restructuring charges and Discover integration expenses.
The results of our individual businesses, which we report on a continuing operations basis, reflect the manner in which management evaluates performance and makes decisions about funding our operations and allocating resources. We may periodically change our business segments or reclassify business segment results based on modifications to our management reporting methodologies and changes in organizational alignment. Our business segment results are intended to reflect each segment as if it were a stand-alone business. We use an internal management and reporting process to derive our business segment results. Our internal management and reporting process employs various allocation methodologies, including funds transfer pricing, to assign certain balance sheet assets, deposits and other liabilities and their related revenues and expenses directly or indirectly attributable to each business. Total interest income and non-interest income are directly attributable to the segment in which they are reported. The net interest income of each segment reflects the results of our funds transfer pricing process, which is primarily based on a matched funding concept that takes into consideration market interest rates. Our funds transfer pricing process is managed by our centralized Corporate Treasury group and provides a funds credit for sources of funds, such as deposits generated by our Consumer Banking and Commercial Banking businesses, and a charge for the use of funds by each business. The allocation is unique to each business and is based on the composition of assets and liabilities. The funds transfer pricing process considers the interest rate and liquidity risk characteristics of assets and liabilities and off-balance sheet products. Periodically, the methodology and assumptions utilized in the funds transfer pricing process are adjusted to reflect economic conditions and other factors, which may impact the allocation of net interest income to the businesses. We regularly assess the assumptions, methodologies and reporting classifications used for segment reporting, which may result in the implementation of refinements or changes in future periods. We provide additional information on the allocation methodologies used to derive our business segment results in “Part II—Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Note 18—Business Segments and Revenue from Contracts with Customers” in our 2025 Form 10-K.
We refer to the business segment results derived from our internal management accounting and reporting process as our “managed” presentation, which differs in some cases from our reported results prepared based on U.S. GAAP. There is no comprehensive authoritative body of guidance for management accounting equivalent to U.S. GAAP; therefore, the managed presentation of our business segment results may not be comparable to similar information provided by other financial services companies. In addition, our individual business segment results should not be used as a substitute for comparable results determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
We summarize our business segment results for the first quarters of 2026 and 2025 and provide a comparative discussion of these results, as well as changes in our financial condition and credit performance metrics as of March 31, 2026 compared to December 31, 2025. We provide a reconciliation of our total business segment results to our reported consolidated results in “Part I—Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 13—Business Segments and Revenue from Contracts with Customers.”

Because our Domestic Card business accounts for the substantial majority of our Credit Card business, the key factors driving the results are similar to the key factors affecting our total Credit Card business. Net income for our Domestic Card business increased in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025 primarily driven by:
•Higher net interest income primarily driven by higher average loan balances, largely due to the addition of Discover.
•Higher non-interest income primarily driven by growth in our portfolio, largely due to the addition of Discover.
These drivers were partially offset by:
•Higher non-interest expense primarily driven by the addition of Discover and amortization of the intangibles recognized in the Transaction.

Key factors affecting the results of our Consumer Banking business for the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025, and changes in financial condition and credit performance between March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 include the following:
•Net Interest Income: Net interest income increased by $286 million to $2.2 billion in the first quarter of 2026 primarily driven by higher deposits due to the addition of Discover and higher average loan balances in our auto business, partially offset by lower margins in our retail banking business.

•Provision for Credit Losses: Provision for credit losses increased by $218 million to $519 million in the first quarter of 2026 primarily driven by a $157 million allowance build in our auto business compared to a $14 million allowance release in the first quarter of 2025.
•Non-Interest Expense: Non-interest expense increased by $417 million to $2.0 billion in the first quarter of 2026 primarily driven by the addition of Discover and amortization of the intangibles recognized in the Transaction, partially offset by the absence of a legal reserve build recorded in the first quarter of 2025.

Key factors affecting the results of our Commercial Banking business for the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025, and changes in financial condition and credit performance between March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 include the following:
•Net Interest Income: Net interest income remained substantially flat at $581 million in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025.
•Non-Interest Income: Non-interest income increased $16 million to $328 million in the first quarter of 2026 primarily driven by our tax advantaged investments business.
•Provision for Credit Losses: Provision for credit losses remained substantially flat at $138 million in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025.
•Non-Interest Expense: Non-interest expense remained substantially flat at $498 million in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025.
Loans Held for Investment:
•Period-end loans held for investment increased by $1.1 billion to $90.3 billion as of March 31, 2026 from December 31, 2025 primarily due to originations outpacing customer payments.
•Average loans held for investment increased by $2.1 billion to $89.6 billion in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025 primarily due to originations outpacing customer payments.
Deposits:
•Period-end deposits remained substantially flat at $31.0 billion as of March 31, 2026 compared to December 31, 2025.
Net Charge-Off and Nonperforming Metrics:
•The net charge-off rate increased by 18 bps to 0.29% in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025.
•The nonperforming loan rate increased by 4 bps to 1.40% as of March 31, 2026 compared to December 31, 2025.
Other Category
Other includes unallocated amounts related to our centralized Corporate Treasury group activities, such as management of our corporate investment securities portfolio, asset/liability management and oversight of our funds transfer pricing process. Other also includes:
•unallocated corporate revenue and expenses that do not directly support the operations of the business segments or for which the business segments are not considered financially accountable in evaluating their performance, such as certain restructuring charges and Discover integration expenses;
•residual tax expense or benefit to arrive at the consolidated effective tax rate that is not assessed to our primary business segments; and
•foreign exchange rate fluctuations on foreign currency-denominated balances. As a result of our derivative management activities, we believe our net exposure to foreign exchange risk is minimal.

** Not meaningful.
Loss from continuing operations, net of tax remained substantially flat at a loss of $192 million in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025 as higher treasury income was largely offset by higher Discover integration expenses.
Discover integration expenses increased by $305 million to $415 million in the first quarter of 2026 primarily driven by higher salaries and associate benefits, which are included within operating expense in our consolidated statements of income. Since the announcement of the Transaction in the first quarter of 2024, we have incurred $1.8 billion of Discover integration expenses as of March 31, 2026.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES |
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make a number of judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the amount of assets, liabilities, income and expenses on the consolidated financial statements. Understanding our accounting policies and the extent to which we use management judgment and estimates in applying these policies is integral to understanding our financial statements. We provide a summary of our significant accounting policies under “Part II—Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Note 1—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in our 2025 Form 10-K.
We have identified the following accounting estimates as critical because they require significant judgments and assumptions about highly complex and inherently uncertain matters and the use of reasonably different estimates and assumptions could have a material impact on our results of operations or financial condition. Our critical accounting policies and estimates are as follows:
•Loan loss reserves
•Goodwill
•Fair value
•Customer rewards reserve
We evaluate our critical accounting estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis and update them as necessary, based on changing conditions. There have been no changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates described in our 2025 Form 10-K under “Part II—Item 7. MD&A—Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates.”

The level and composition of our capital are determined by multiple factors, including our consolidated regulatory capital requirements as described in more detail below and internal risk-based capital assessments such as internal stress testing. The level and composition of our capital may also be influenced by rating agency guidelines, subsidiary capital requirements, business environment, conditions in the financial markets and assessments of potential future losses due to adverse changes in our business and market environments.
Capital Standards and Prompt Corrective Action
The Company and the Bank are subject to the regulatory capital requirements established by the Federal Reserve and the OCC, respectively (the “Basel III Capital Rules”). The Basel III Capital Rules implement certain capital requirements published by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (“Basel Committee”), along with certain provisions of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (“Dodd-Frank Act”) and other capital provisions.
As a bank holding company (“BHC”) with total consolidated assets of at least $250 billion but less than $700 billion and not exceeding any of the applicable risk-based thresholds, the Company is a Category III institution under the Basel III Capital Rules.
The Bank, as a subsidiary of a Category III institution, is a Category III bank. Moreover, the Bank, as an insured depository institution, is subject to prompt corrective action (“PCA”) capital regulations.
Basel III and U.S. Capital Rules
Under the Basel III Capital Rules, we must maintain a minimum CET1 capital ratio of 4.5%, a Tier 1 capital ratio of 6.0% and a total capital ratio of 8.0%, in each case in relation to risk-weighted assets. In addition, we must maintain a minimum leverage ratio of 4.0% and a minimum supplementary leverage ratio of 3.0% .We are also subject to the capital conservation buffer requirement and countercyclical capital buffer requirement, each as described below. Our capital and leverage ratios are calculated based on the Basel III standardized approach framework.
We have elected to exclude certain elements of accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) from our regulatory capital as permitted for a Category III institution. For information on the recognition of AOCI in regulatory capital under the proposed changes to the Basel III Capital Rules, see “Supervision and Regulation—Basel III Finalization Proposals” in this Report.
Global systemically important banks (“G-SIBs”) that are based in the U.S. are subject to an additional CET1 capital requirement known as the “G-SIB Surcharge.” We are not a G-SIB based on the most recent available data and thus we are not subject to a G-SIB Surcharge.
Capital Buffer Requirements
The Basel III Capital Rules require banking institutions to maintain a capital conservation buffer, composed of CET1 capital, above the regulatory minimum ratios. Under the Federal Reserve’s final rule to implement the stress capital buffer requirement (“Stress Capital Buffer Rule”), the Company’s “standardized approach capital conservation buffer” includes its stress capital buffer requirement (as described below), any G-SIB Surcharge (which is not applicable to us) and the countercyclical capital buffer requirement (which is currently set at 0%). Any determination to increase the countercyclical capital buffer applicable to the Company generally would be effective twelve months after the announcement of such an increase, unless the Federal Reserve sets an earlier effective date.
The Company’s stress capital buffer requirement is recalibrated every year based on the Company’s supervisory stress test results, unless otherwise determined by the Federal Reserve. In particular, the Company’s stress capital buffer requirement equals, subject to a floor of 2.5%, the sum of (i) the difference between the Company’s starting CET1 capital ratio and its lowest projected CET1 capital ratio under the severely adverse scenario of the Federal Reserve’s supervisory stress test plus (ii) the ratio of the Company’s projected four quarters of common stock dividends (for the fourth to seventh quarters of the planning horizon) to the projected risk-weighted assets for the quarter in which the Company’s projected CET1 capital ratio reaches its minimum under the supervisory stress test.
Based on the Company’s 2025 supervisory stress test results, the Company’s final stress capital buffer requirement for the period beginning on October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026 is 4.5%. On February 4, 2026, the Federal Reserve notified
| | | | | | | | |
|
| 29 | Capital One Financial Corporation (COF) |
all participating firms, including the Company, that because the Stress Testing Transparency Proposal remains subject to public comment, the Federal Reserve is maintaining stress capital buffer requirements for all such firms at their current levels. Consequently, absent further action from the Federal Reserve, the Company’s stress capital buffer requirement will remain at 4.5% until September 30, 2027. Accordingly, the Company’s minimum capital requirements plus the standardized approach capital conservation buffer for CET1 capital, Tier 1 capital and total capital ratios under the stress capital buffer framework are 9.0%, 10.5% and 12.5%, respectively, for the period from October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2027. For additional information regarding the proposed rulemaking to modify the stress capital buffer framework and the Stress Testing Transparency Proposal, see “Part I—Item 1. Business—Supervision and Regulation—Prudential Regulation of Banking—Capital and Stress Testing Regulation—Capital Buffer Requirements” in our 2025 Form 10-K.
The Stress Capital Buffer Rule does not apply to the Bank. Pursuant to the OCC’s capital regulations, which are only applicable to the Bank, the capital conservation buffer for the Bank continues to be fixed at 2.5%. The Bank is also subject to the countercyclical capital buffer requirement (which is currently set at 0%). Any determination to increase the countercyclical capital buffer applicable to the Bank generally would be effective twelve months after the announcement of such an increase, unless the OCC sets an earlier effective date. Accordingly, the Bank’s minimum capital requirements plus its capital conservation buffer for CET1 capital, Tier 1 capital and total capital ratios are 7.0%, 8.5% and 10.5%, respectively.
If the Company or the Bank fails to maintain its capital ratios above the minimum capital requirements plus the applicable capital conservation buffer requirements, it will face increasingly strict automatic limitations on capital distributions and discretionary bonus payments to certain executive officers.
As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, the Company and the Bank each exceeded the minimum capital requirements and the capital conservation buffer requirements applicable to them, and the Company and the Bank were each “well-capitalized.” The “well-capitalized” standards applicable to the Company are established in the Federal Reserve’s regulations, and the “well-capitalized” standards applicable to the Bank are established in the OCC’s PCA capital requirements.
Market Risk Rule
The “Market Risk Rule” supplements the Basel III Capital Rules by requiring institutions subject to the rule to adjust their risk-based capital ratios to reflect the market risk in their trading book. The Market Risk Rule generally applies to institutions with aggregate trading assets and liabilities equal to 10% or more of total assets or $1 billion or more. As of March 31, 2026, the Company and the Bank are subject to the Market Risk Rule. See “Market Risk Profile” below for additional information.
For the description of the regulatory capital rules to which we are subject, see “Part I—Item 1. Business—Supervision and Regulation” in our 2025 Form 10-K, and for a description of recent proposed amendments to these rules under the Basel III Finalization Proposals, see “Supervision and Regulation” in this Report.

Capital Planning and Regulatory Stress Testing
We repurchased $2.5 billion in shares of our common stock during the first quarter of 2026.
On February 4, 2026, the Federal Reserve notified all participating firms, including the Company, that because the Stress Testing Transparency Proposal remains subject to public comment, the Federal Reserve is maintaining stress capital buffer requirements for all such firms at their current levels. Consequently, absent further action from the Federal Reserve, the Company’s stress capital buffer requirement will remain at 4.5% until September 30, 2027.
On April 3, 2026, we submitted our capital plan to the Federal Reserve as part of the 2026 stress testing cycle. The supervisory stress test results are expected to be released by the Federal Reserve by June 30, 2026
For the description of the regulatory capital planning rules and stress testing requirements to which we are subject, see “Part I—Item 1.

The declaration and payment of dividends to our stockholders, as well as the amount thereof, are subject to the discretion of our Board of Directors and depend upon our results of operations, financial condition, capital levels, cash requirements, future prospects, regulatory requirements and other factors deemed relevant by the Board of Directors. For additional information related to capital distributions, see “Capital Management—Capital Planning and Regulatory Stress Testing” in this Report.
As a BHC, our ability to pay dividends is largely dependent upon the receipt of dividends or other payments from our subsidiaries. The Bank is subject to regulatory restrictions that limit its ability to transfer funds to our BHC. As of March 31, 2026, funds available for dividend payments from the Bank were $1.6 billion. There can be no assurance that we will declare and pay any dividends to stockholders.
We repurchased $2.5 billion in shares of our common stock during the first quarter of 2026. The timing and exact amount of any future common stock repurchases will depend on various factors, including market conditions, opportunities for growth, our capital position and the amount of retained earnings, as well as regulatory considerations. The Board authorized stock repurchase program does not include specific price targets or number of shares, may be executed through open market purchases, tender offers, or privately negotiated transactions, including utilizing Rule 10b5-1 plans, does not have a set expiration date and may be modified, suspended or terminated at any time.

Risk Management Framework
Our Risk Management Framework (the “Framework”) sets consistent expectations for risk management across the Company. It also sets expectations for our “Three Lines of Defense” model, which defines the roles, responsibilities and accountabilities for taking and managing risk across the Company. Accountability for overseeing an effective Framework resides with our Board of Directors either directly or through its committees. The Company is in the process of integrating Discover into its existing risk management practices, policies and processes.

Credit Risk Measurement
We closely monitor economic conditions and loan performance trends to assess and manage our exposure to credit risk. Trends in delinquency rates are the key credit quality indicator for our credit card, personal loans and retail banking loan portfolios as changes in delinquency rates can provide an early warning of changes in potential future credit losses. The key indicator we monitor when assessing the credit quality and risk of our auto loan portfolio is borrower credit scores as they provide insight into borrower risk profiles, which give indications of potential future credit losses. The key credit quality indicator for our commercial loan portfolio is our internal risk ratings as we generally classify loans that have been delinquent for an extended period of time and other loans with significant risk of loss as nonperforming. In addition to these credit quality indicators, we also manage and monitor other credit quality metrics such as level of nonperforming loans and net charge-off rates.
We underwrite most consumer loans using proprietary models, which typically include credit bureau data, such as borrower credit scores, application information and, where applicable, collateral and deal structure data. We continuously adjust our management of credit lines and collection strategies based on customer behavior and risk profile changes. We also use borrower credit scores for subprime classification, for competitive benchmarking and, in some cases, to drive product segmentation decisions.
Table 20 provides details on the credit scores of our domestic credit card, personal and auto loan portfolios as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

__________(1)Percentages represent period-end loans held for investment in each credit score category. Domestic credit card and personal loan credit scores generally represent Fair Isaac Corporation (“FICO”) scores. These scores are obtained from one of the major credit bureaus at origination and are refreshed monthly thereafter and may be based on different versions of FICO over time. We approximate non-FICO credit scores to comparable FICO scores for consistency purposes. Balances for which no credit score is available or the credit score is invalid are included in the 660 or below category for Domestic credit card and 620 or below for personal loans.
(2)Percentages represent period-end loans held for investment in each credit score category. Auto loan credit scores generally represent average FICO scores obtained from three credit bureaus at the time of application and are not refreshed thereafter. Balances for which no credit score is available or the credit score is invalid are included in the 620 or below category.
In our commercial loan portfolio, we assign internal risk ratings to loans based on relevant information about the ability of the borrowers to repay their debt. In determining the risk rating of a particular loan, some of the factors considered are the borrower’s current financial condition, historical and projected future credit performance, prospects for support from financially responsible guarantors, the estimated realizable value of any collateral and current economic trends.
We present information in the section below on the credit performance of our loan portfolio, including the key metrics we use in tracking changes in the credit quality of our loan portfolio. See “Part I—Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 4—Loans” for additional credit quality information in this Report and see “Part II—Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Note 1—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in our 2025 Form 10-K for information on our accounting policies for delinquent and nonperforming loans, charge-offs and loan modifications and restructurings.

Delinquency Rates
We consider the entire balance of an account to be delinquent if the minimum required payment is not received by the customer’s due date, measured at each balance sheet date. Our 30+ day delinquency metrics include all loans held for investment that are 30 or more days past due, whereas our 30+ day performing delinquency metrics include all loans held for investment that are 30 or more days past due but are currently classified as performing and accruing interest. The 30+ day delinquency and 30+ day performing delinquency metrics are the same for domestic credit card loans, as we continue to classify these loans as performing until the account is charged off, typically when the account is 180 days past due. See “Part II—Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Note 1—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in our 2025 Form 10-K for information on our policies for classifying loans as nonperforming for each of our loan categories. We provide additional information on our credit quality metrics in “Business Segment Financial Performance.”

Net Charge-Offs
Net charge-offs consist of the amortized cost basis, excluding accrued interest, of loans held for investment that we determine to be uncollectible, net of recovered amounts. Recoveries are recognized for payments received after a loan has been charged off, up to the amount that was charged off. The amount and timing of recoveries are impacted by our collection strategies, which are based on customer behavior and risk profile and include direct customer communications, repossession of collateral, the periodic sale of charged off loans as well as additional strategies, such as litigation. Uncollectible finance charges and fees are reversed through revenue and certain fraud losses are recorded in other non-interest expense. Generally, costs to recover charged-off loans are recorded as collection expenses as incurred and are included in our consolidated statements of income as a component of other non-interest expense. Our charge-off policy for loans varies based on the loan type. See “Part II—Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Note 1—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in our 2025 Form 10-K for information on our charge-off policy for each of our loan portfolios.
Table 25 presents our net charge-off amounts and rates, by portfolio segment, in the first quarters of 2026 and 2025.

Financial Difficulty Modifications to Borrowers
A financial difficulty modification (“FDM”) occurs when a modification in the form of principal forgiveness, interest rate reduction, an other-than-insignificant payment delay, a term extension or a combination of these modifications is granted to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty.
As part of our loss mitigation efforts, we may provide short-term (one to twelve months) or long-term (greater than twelve months) modifications to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty to improve long-term collectibility of the loan and to avoid the need for repossession or foreclosure of collateral.
We consider the impact of all loan modifications, including FDMs, when estimating the credit quality of our loan portfolio and establishing allowance levels. For our Commercial Banking customers, loan modifications are also considered in the assignment of an internal risk rating.
In our Credit Card business, the majority of our FDMs receive an interest rate reduction and are placed on a fixed payment plan not exceeding 60 months. If the customer does not comply with the modified payment terms, then the credit card loan agreement may revert to its original payment terms, generally resulting in any loan outstanding being reflected in the appropriate delinquency category and charged off in accordance with our standard charge-off policy.
In our Consumer Banking business, the majority of our FDMs receive an extension, an interest rate reduction, principal reduction, or a combination of these modifications.
In our Commercial Banking business, the majority of our FDMs receive an extension. A portion of FDMs receive an interest rate reduction, principal reduction, or a combination of modifications.
For more information on FDMs, see “Part I—Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 4—Loans.”
Allowance for Credit Losses and Reserve for Unfunded Lending Commitments
Our allowance for credit losses represents management’s current estimate of expected credit losses over the contractual terms of our loans held for investment as of each balance sheet date. Expected recoveries of amounts previously charged off or expected to be charged off are recognized within the allowance. Charge-offs of uncollectible amounts result in a reduction to the allowance and recoveries of previously charged off amounts are credited to the allowance. We also estimate expected credit losses related to unfunded lending commitments that are not unconditionally cancellable. The provision for losses on unfunded lending commitments is included in the provision for credit losses in our consolidated statements of income and the related reserve for unfunded lending commitments is included in other liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. We provide additional information on the methodologies and key assumptions used in determining our allowance for credit losses and our reserve for unfunded lending commitments in “Part II—Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Note 1—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in our 2025 Form 10-K.

We manage our funding and liquidity risk in an integrated manner in support of the current and future cash flow needs of our business. We maintained liquidity reserves of $164.8 billion and $144.0 billion as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, as shown in Table 27 below. Included in liquidity reserves are cash and cash equivalents, investment securities and FHLB borrowing capacity secured by loans.
As of March 31, 2026, we had available issuance capacity of $39.0 billion under shelf registrations associated with our credit card and auto loan securitization programs. We also maintain a shelf registration that enables us to issue an indeterminate amount of senior or subordinated debt securities, preferred stock, depositary shares, common stock, purchase contracts, warrants and units. Our ability to issue under each shelf registration is subject to market conditions.
Finally, as of March 31, 2026, we had access to available contingent liquidity sources totaling $106.4 billion through the prepositioning of collateral, including a portion of the investment securities included in the liquidity reserves amount in the following table, at the Federal Reserve Discount Window, the Standing Repo Operations, FHLB and the Fixed Income Clearing Corporation - Government Securities Division (“FICC - GSD”).
As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, our funding sources totaled $540.9 billion and $526.8 billion, respectively, primarily composed of consumer deposits, as shown in “Consolidated Balance Sheets Analysis—Table 7: Funding Sources Composition.”
Our liquidity reserves, borrowing capacity, contingent liquidity sources and total funding sources are all discussed in more detail in the following sections. Both our investment securities available for sale and held to maturity are presented at fair value in the measurement of liquidity reserves.
Table 27 below presents the composition of our liquidity reserves as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

________(1) Includes investment securities that have been pledged or otherwise encumbered within the below Liquidity Reserves line items “Outstanding FHLB advances and letters of credit secured by loans and investment securities” and “Other encumbrances of investment securities.”
Our liquidity reserves increased by $20.8 billion to $164.8 billion as of March 31, 2026 from December 31, 2025, primarily due to increases in cash and cash equivalents. In addition to these liquidity reserves, we maintain access to a diversified mix of funding sources as discussed in the “Borrowing Capacity” and “Funding Sources” sections below. See “Part II—Item 7. MD&A—Risk Management” in our 2025 Form 10-K for additional information on our management of liquidity risk.

Liquidity Coverage Ratio
We are subject to the final rules published by the Basel Committee and as implemented by the Federal Reserve and the OCC for the Basel III Liquidity Coverage Ratio (“LCR”) in the U.S. (the “LCR Rule”). The LCR Rule requires both the Company and the Bank to calculate its respective LCR daily. It also requires the Company to publicly disclose, on a quarterly basis, its LCR, certain related quantitative liquidity metrics, and a qualitative discussion of its LCR. Our average LCR during the first quarter of 2026 was 166%, which exceeded the LCR Rule requirement of 100%. The calculation and the underlying components are based on our interpretations, expectations and assumptions of relevant regulations, as well as interpretations provided by our regulators, and are subject to change based on changes to future regulations and interpretations. See “Part I—Item 1. Business—Supervision and Regulation” in our 2025 Form 10-K for additional information.
Net Stable Funding Ratio
We are subject to the final rules published by the Basel Committee and as implemented by the Federal Reserve and the OCC for the Basel III Net Stable Funding Ratio (“NSFR”) in the U.S. (the “NSFR Rule”). The NSFR Rule requires each of the Company and the Bank to maintain an NSFR of 100% on an ongoing basis. It also requires the Company to publicly disclose, on a semi-annual basis each second and fourth quarter, its NSFR, certain related quantitative liquidity metrics and qualitative discussion of its NSFR. Our average NSFR for the first quarter of 2026 exceeded the NSFR Rule requirement of 100%. The calculation and the underlying components are based on our interpretations, expectations and assumptions of the relevant regulations, as well as interpretations provided by our regulators, and are subject to change based on changes to future regulations and interpretations. See “Part I—Item 1. Business—Supervision and Regulation” in our 2025 Form 10-K for additional information.
Borrowing Capacity
We maintain a shelf registration with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) so that we may periodically offer and sell an indeterminate aggregate amount of senior or subordinated debt securities, preferred stock, depositary shares, common stock, purchase contracts, warrants and units. There is no limit under this shelf registration to the amount or number of such securities that we may offer and sell, subject to market conditions. In addition, we also maintain a shelf registration associated with our Capital One Multi-asset Execution Trust (“COMET”) that allows us to periodically offer and sell up to $24.0 billion of securitized debt obligations and a shelf registration associated with our Capital One Prime Auto Receivables Trusts (“COPAR”) that allows us to periodically offer and sell up to $18.6 billion of securitized debt obligations. These shelf registration statements are subject to periodic renewal and, thus, change, which may be reviewed by the SEC at the time of each such renewal. As part of each periodic renewal, we assess registered amounts under each shelf registration statement which may be updated as appropriate. As of March 31, 2026, we had $21.5 billion and $17.5 billion of available issuance capacity in our COMET and COPAR securitization programs, respectively.
In addition to our issuance capacity under the shelf registration statements, we also have collateral pledged to support our access to FHLB advances, the Federal Reserve Discount Window, the Standing Repo Operations and FICC - GSD general collateral financing repurchase agreement service. For each of these programs, the ability to borrow utilizing these sources is dependent on meeting the respective membership requirements. Our borrowing capacity in each program is a function of the collateral the Bank has posted with each counterparty, including any respective haircuts applied to that collateral.
As of March 31, 2026, we pledged loans and securities to the FHLB to secure a maximum borrowing capacity of $34.5 billion, of which $1.3 billion was used. Our FHLB membership is supported by our investment in FHLB stock of $89 million as of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
As of March 31, 2026, we pledged loans to secure a borrowing capacity of $49.9 billion under the Federal Reserve Discount Window. Our membership with the Federal Reserve is supported by our investment in Federal Reserve stock of $2.6 billion as of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
As a member of FICC - GSD, we have $22.0 billion of readily available borrowing capacity secured by securities from our investment portfolio as of March 31, 2026. Our FICC - GSD membership is supported by our investment in Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation common stock of $575 thousand and $488 thousand as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.

The FDIC limits the acceptance of brokered deposits to well-capitalized insured depository institutions and, with a waiver from the FDIC, to adequately-capitalized institutions. The Bank was well capitalized, as defined under the federal banking regulatory guidelines, as of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. See “Part I—Item 1. Business—Supervision and Regulation” in our 2025 Form 10-K for additional information. We provide additional information on the composition of deposits in “Consolidated Balance Sheets Analysis—Table 7: Funding Sources Composition” and in “Part I—Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 8—Deposits and Borrowings.”
Funding Sources
Our funding sources include deposits, senior and subordinated notes, securitized debt obligations, federal funds purchased, securities loaned or sold under agreements to repurchase and FHLB advances secured by certain portions of our loan and securities portfolios. A key objective in our use of these markets is to maintain access to a diversified mix of wholesale funding sources. Insured deposits in our Consumer Banking business represent our primary source of funding, as they are a relatively stable and low cost source of funding. See “Consolidated Balance Sheets Analysis—Table 7: Funding Sources Composition” for additional information on our primary sources of funding.
Short-Term Borrowings and Long-Term Debt
We access the capital markets to meet our funding needs through the issuance of senior and subordinated notes, securitized debt obligations and federal funds purchased and securities loaned or sold under agreements to repurchase. In addition, we have access to short-term and long-term FHLB advances secured by certain investment securities, multifamily real estate loans and commercial real estate loans.
Our short-term borrowings, which include those borrowings with an original contractual maturity of one year or less, typically consist of federal funds purchased, securities loaned or sold under agreements to repurchase or short-term FHLB advances, and do not include the current portion of long-term debt. Our short-term borrowings increased by $539 million to $1.6 billion as of March 31, 2026 from December 31, 2025, primarily driven by an increase in short-term FHLB advances.
Our long-term funding, which primarily consists of securitized debt obligations, senior and subordinated notes and long-term FHLB advances, increased by $349 million to $50.3 billion as of March 31, 2026 from December 31, 2025 primarily driven by net issuances of unsecured senior debt, partially offset by maturities and paydowns of securitized debt and long term FHLB advances. We provide more information on our securitization activity in “Part I—Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 6—Variable Interest Entities and Securitizations” and on our borrowings in “Part I—Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 8—Deposits and Borrowings.”

Funding Uses and Commitments
In the normal course of business, we enter into various contractual obligations that may require future cash payments that affect our short-term and long-term liquidity and capital resource needs. Our future contractual cash outflows primarily relate to deposits, borrowings, operating leases and other contractual obligations. Other contractual obligations include lending commitments, leases, purchase obligations and other contractual arrangements. The actual timing and amounts of future cash payments may vary over time due to a number of factors, such as early debt redemptions and changes in deposit balances.
As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, our total unfunded lending commitments were $746.9 billion and $729.6 billion, respectively, consisting of credit card lines, loan commitments to customers of both our Commercial Banking and Consumer Banking businesses, as well as standby and commercial letters of credit. We generally manage the potential risk of unfunded lending commitments by limiting the total amount of arrangements, monitoring the size and maturity structure of these portfolios and applying the same credit standards for all of our credit activities. For additional information, refer to “Part I—Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 14—Commitments, Contingencies, Guarantees and Others” in this Report.
Our primary involvement with leases is in the capacity as a lessee where we lease premises to support our business. The majority of our leases are operating leases of office space, retail bank branches and cafés. Our operating leases expire at various dates through 2071, although some have extension or termination options, and we assess the likelihood of exercising such options. If it is reasonably certain that we will exercise the options, then we include the impact in the measurement of our right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we had $1.4 billion and $1.5 billion in aggregate operating lease obligations, respectively. We provide more information on our lease activity in “Part II—Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Note 8—Premises, Equipment and Leases” in our 2025 Form 10-K.
We have enforceable and legally binding purchase obligations for goods and services such as data management, media and other software and third-party services. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we had $3.4 billion and $3.8 billion, respectively, in aggregate purchase obligations.
We also enter into various contractual arrangements that may require future cash payments, including short-term obligations such as trade payables, commitments to fund certain equity investments, obligations for pension and post-retirement benefit plans, and representation and warranty reserves. These arrangements are discussed in more detail in “Part I—Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 6—Variable Interest Entities and Securitizations,” and “Part I—Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 14—Commitments, Contingencies, Guarantees and Others” in this Report and “Part II—Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Note 15—Employee Benefit Plans” in our 2025 Form 10-K.
Our primary market risk exposures include interest rate risk, foreign exchange risk and commodity pricing risk. We are exposed to market risk primarily from the following operations and activities:
•Traditional banking activities of deposit gathering and lending;
•Asset/liability management activities including the management of investment securities, short-term and long-term borrowings and derivatives;
•Foreign operations within our Credit Card and Consumer Banking businesses; and
•Customer accommodation activities within our Commercial Banking business.
We have enterprise-wide risk management policies and limits, approved by our Board of Directors, which govern our market risk management activities. Our objective is to manage our exposure to market risk in accordance with these policies and limits based on prevailing market conditions and long-term expectations. We provide additional information below about our primary sources of market risk, our market risk management strategies and the measures that we use to evaluate these exposures.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk represents exposure to financial instruments whose values vary with the level or volatility of interest rates. We are exposed to interest rate risk primarily from the differences in the timing between the maturities or repricing of assets and liabilities. We manage our interest rate risk primarily by entering into interest rate swaps and other derivative instruments which
| | | | | | | | |
|
| 53 | Capital One Financial Corporation (COF) |
could include caps, floors, options, futures and forward contracts.
We use various industry standard market risk measurement techniques and analyses to measure, assess and manage the impact of changes in interest rates on our net interest income and our economic value of equity and changes in foreign exchange rates on our non-dollar-denominated funding and non-dollar equity investments in foreign operations.
Net Interest Income Sensitivity
Our net interest income sensitivity measure estimates the impact of hypothetical instantaneous movements in interest rates relative to our baseline interest rate forecast on our projected 12-month net interest income. Net interest income sensitivity metrics are derived using the following key assumptions:
•As of March 31, 2026, our metrics assume a market implied baseline interest rate projection for the upper limit of the Federal Funds Target Rate of 3.75% and 3.50% at December 31, 2026 and 2027, respectively.
•In addition to our existing assets, liabilities and derivative positions, we incorporate expected future business growth assumptions. These assumptions include loan and deposit growth, pricing, plans for projected changes in our funding mix and our securities and cash position from our internal corporate outlook that is used in our financial planning process.
•The analysis assumes this forecast of expected future business growth remains unchanged between the baseline rate forecast and rate shock scenarios, including no changes to our interest rate risk management activities like securities and hedging actions.
•We incorporate the dynamic nature of deposit repricing, which includes pricing lags and changes in deposit beta and mix as interest rates change, and the prepayment sensitivity of our mortgage securities to the level of interest rates. In our models, deposit betas and mortgage security prepayments vary dynamically based on the level of interest rates and by product type. In the contexts used in this section, “beta” refers to the change in deposit rate paid relative to the change in the federal funds rate.
•In instances where an interest rate scenario would result in a rate less than 0%, we assume a rate of 0% for that scenario. This assumption applies only to jurisdictions that do not have a practice of employing negative policy rates. In jurisdictions that have negative policy rates, we do not floor interest rates at 0%.
At the current level of interest rates, our projected 12-month net interest income is expected to increase in higher rate scenarios and decrease in lower rate scenarios. The decrease in lower rate scenarios is driven by lower interest income from our assets, including floating rate credit card and commercial loans, being partially offset by lower interest expense from our deposits and other liabilities, net of our interest rate hedges. Our combined 12-month net interest income sensitivity was largely unchanged as compared to December 31, 2025.

| 54 | Capital One Financial Corporation (COF) |
Economic Value of Equity Sensitivity
Our economic value of equity sensitivity measure estimates the impact of hypothetical instantaneous movements in interest rates on the net present value of our assets and liabilities, including derivative exposures. Economic value of equity sensitivity metrics are derived using the following key assumptions:
•As of March 31, 2026, our metrics assume a market implied baseline interest rate projection for the upper limit of the Federal Funds Target Rate of 3.75% and 3.50% at December 31, 2026 and 2027, respectively.
•The analysis includes only existing assets, liabilities and derivative positions and does not incorporate business growth assumptions or projected balance sheet changes.
•Similar to our net interest income sensitivity measure, we incorporate the dynamic nature of deposit repricing and attrition, which includes pricing lags and changes in deposit beta as interest rates change and the prepayment sensitivity of our mortgage securities to the level of interest rates. In our models, deposit betas and mortgage security prepayments vary dynamically based on the level of interest rates and by product type.
•Balance attrition assumptions for loans, including credit card, personal, auto and commercial loans, remain unchanged between the baseline interest rate forecast and interest rate shock scenarios as the majority of these loans are floating rate or shorter duration fixed rate loans and hence paydowns have a low sensitivity to the level of interest rates.
•For assets and liabilities with embedded optionality, such as mortgage securities and deposit balances, we utilize Monte Carlo simulations to assess economic value with industry-standard term structure modeling of interest rates.
•Our calculations of net present value apply appropriate spreads over the benchmark yield curve for select assets and liabilities to capture the inherent risks (including credit risk) to discount expected interest and principal cash flows.
•In instances where an interest rate scenario would result in a rate less than 0%, we assume a rate of 0% for that scenario. This assumption applies only to jurisdictions that do not have a practice of employing negative policy rates. In jurisdictions that have negative policy rates, we do not floor interest rates at 0%.
Our current economic value of equity sensitivity profile demonstrates that our economic value of equity decreases in higher interest rate scenarios and increases in lower interest rate scenarios. The decrease in higher rate scenarios is due to the decline in the projected value of our fixed rate assets being only partially offset by corresponding movements in the projected value of our deposits and other liabilities. The pace of economic value of equity decrease is larger for the +200 bps scenario as our deposits are assumed to reprice more rapidly in higher interest rate environments. Our combined economic value of equity sensitivity modestly increased as compared to December 31, 2025, driven by the increase in long-term interest rates.

Table 31 shows the estimated percentage impact on our projected baseline net interest income and our current economic value of equity calculated under the methodology described above as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
Table 31: Interest Rate Sensitivity Analysis
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | March 31, 2026 | | December 31, 2025 |
| Estimated impact on projected baseline net interest income: | | | | |
| +200 bps | | 0.8 | % | | 1.0 | % |
| +100 bps | | 0.5 | | | 0.6 | |
| +50 bps | | 0.3 | | | 0.3 | |
| –50 bps | | (0.2) | | | (0.3) | |
| –100 bps | | (0.5) | | | (0.7) | |
| –200 bps | | (2.0) | | | (2.7) | |
| Estimated impact on economic value of equity: | | | | |
| +200 bps | | (5.5) | | | (4.5) | |
| +100 bps | | (2.5) | | | (2.0) | |
| +50 bps | | (1.2) | | | (0.9) | |
| –50 bps | | 1.1 | | | 0.7 | |
| –100 bps | | 1.9 | | | 1.2 | |
| –200 bps | | 2.7 | | | 1.1 | |
In addition to these industry standard measures, we also consider the potential impact of alternative interest rate scenarios, such as larger rate shocks, higher than +/- 200 bps, as well as steepening and flattening yield curve scenarios in our internal interest rate risk management decisions. We also regularly review the sensitivity of our interest rate risk metrics to changes in our key modeling assumptions, such as our loan and deposit balance forecasts, mortgage prepayments and deposit repricing.
Limitations of Market Risk Measures
The interest rate risk models that we use in deriving these measures incorporate contractual information, internally developed assumptions and proprietary modeling methodologies, which project borrower and depositor behavior patterns in certain interest rate environments. Other market inputs, such as interest rates, market prices and interest rate volatility, are also critical components of our interest rate risk measures. We regularly evaluate, update and enhance these assumptions, models and analytical tools as we believe appropriate to reflect our best assessment of the market environment and the expected behavior patterns of our existing assets and liabilities.
There are inherent limitations in any methodology used to estimate the exposure to changes in market interest rates. The sensitivity analysis described above contemplates only certain movements in interest rates and is performed at a particular point in time based on our existing balance sheet and, in some cases, expected future business growth and funding mix assumptions. The strategic actions that management may take to manage our balance sheet may differ significantly from our projections, which could cause our actual earnings and economic value of equity sensitivities to differ substantially from the above sensitivity analysis.
For further information on our interest rate exposures, see “Part I—Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 9—Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.”

Foreign Exchange Risk
Foreign exchange risk represents exposure to changes in the values of current holdings and future cash flows denominated in other currencies. We are exposed to foreign exchange risk primarily from the intercompany funding denominated in pound sterling (“GBP”) and the Canadian dollar (“CAD”) that we provide to our businesses in the U.K. and Canada and net equity investments in those businesses. We are also exposed to foreign exchange risk due to changes in the dollar-denominated value of future earnings and cash flows from our foreign operations and from our Euro (“EUR”)-denominated borrowing.
Our non-dollar denominated intercompany funding and EUR-denominated borrowing expose our earnings to foreign exchange transaction risk. We manage these transaction risks by using forward foreign currency derivatives and cross-currency swaps to hedge our exposures. We measure our foreign exchange transaction risk exposures by applying a 1% U.S. dollar appreciation shock against the value of the non-dollar denominated intercompany funding and EUR-denominated borrowing and their related hedges, which shows the impact to our earnings from foreign exchange risk. Our nominal intercompany funding outstanding with interest accrued was 1.5 billion GBP as of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 and 953 million CAD and 1.1 billion CAD as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. Our nominal EUR-denominated borrowing outstanding with interest accrued were 507 million EUR and 505 million EUR as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
Certain non-dollar equity investments in foreign operations expose our balance sheet and capital ratios to translation risk in AOCI. We manage our translation risk by entering into foreign currency derivatives designated as net investment hedges. We measure these exposures by applying a 30% U.S. dollar appreciation shock, which we believe approximates a significant adverse shock over a one-year time horizon, against the value of the equity invested in our foreign operations net of related net investment hedges where applicable. Our primary exposure is to our U.K. and Canadian operations and the gross equity amounts were 2.4 billion GBP and 2.3 billion GBP as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, and 2.9 billion CAD and 2.8 billion CAD as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. Additionally, we have immaterial foreign translation exposure to a small number of other currencies.
As a result of our derivative management activities, we believe our net exposure to foreign exchange risk is minimal. For more information, see “Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 9—Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” and “Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 10—Stockholders’ Equity.”
Risk Related to Customer Accommodation Derivatives
We offer interest rate, commodity and foreign currency derivatives as an accommodation to our customers within our Commercial Banking business. We offset the majority of the market risk of these customer accommodation derivatives by entering into offsetting derivatives transactions with other counterparties. We use value-at-risk (“VaR”) as the primary method to measure the market risk in our customer accommodation derivative activities on a daily basis. VaR is a statistical risk measure used to estimate the potential loss from movements observed in the recent market environment. We employ a historical simulation approach using the most recent 500 business days and use a 99% confidence level and a holding period of one business day. As a result of offsetting our customer exposures with other counterparties, we believe that our net exposure to market risk in our customer accommodation derivatives is minimal. For further information on our risk related to customer accommodation derivatives, see “Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 9—Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.”

SUPERVISION AND REGULATION |
Basel III Finalization Proposals
In March 2026, the Federal Banking Agencies released two notices of proposed rulemakings (collectively, the “Basel III Finalization Proposals”) to revise the Basel III Capital Rules applicable to certain U.S. banking organizations, including the Company and the Bank. The Basel III Finalization Proposals replace a July 2023 proposal to amend the U.S. capital rules, which was rescinded.
The first proposal (the “Standardized Approach Proposal”) would revise the existing standardized approach by enhancing the sensitivity of the standardized risk weights for certain traditional banking activities and recalibrating the standardized risk weights for certain exposures (the “Modified Standardized Approach”). The second proposal (the “Expanded Risk-Based Approach Proposal”) introduces a new framework for calculating risk-weighted assets (the “Expanded Risk-Based Approach”). The Expanded Risk-Based Approach is mandatory for Category I and II banking organizations although any other banking organization could elect to use it. Compared to the Modified Standardized Approach, the Expanded Risk-Based Approach would reflect more granular risk weights for credit exposures and a separate risk-weighted asset for operational risk. In addition, the Expanded Risk-Based Approach Proposal would introduce a new approach for calculating market risk based on both internal models and standardized methodologies that would apply only to Category I and II banking organizations and any banking organizations with aggregate trading assets and trading liabilities of at least (i) $5 billion based on a four-quarter average or (ii) 10% of total assets.
As Category III banking organizations, the Company and the Bank would have the option to calculate their risk-based capital ratios using either the Modified Standardized Approach or the Expanded Risk-Based Approach.
The proposals would also make certain changes to the calculation of regulatory capital. In particular, Category III and IV banking organizations would be required to recognize most elements of AOCI in their regulatory capital, subject to a five-year transition period, regardless of whether they elect to apply the Modified Standardized Approach or the Expanded Risk-Based Approach. In addition, the Standardized Approach Proposal would retain the existing deduction threshold for Category III and IV banking organizations to deduct certain assets, such as certain deferred tax assets, from CET1 capital. However, if such an organization elects to adopt the Expanded Risk-Based Approach, it would instead be subject to the lower, more restrictive deduction thresholds currently applicable only to Category I and II banking organizations. The capital buffer requirements currently applicable to the Company and the Bank would not change under the Basel III Finalization Proposals.
The Basel III Finalization Proposals do not include a proposed effective date. We are in the process of evaluating the Basel III Finalization Proposals and their potential impact on Capital One, if adopted as proposed.
Resolution and Recovery Planning
On March 31, 2026, the OCC issued a final rule rescinding its enforceable recovery planning guidelines. These guidelines required banks with assets of $100 billion or more, including the Bank, to develop recovery plans detailing the actions they would take to remain a going concern when they experience considerable financial or non-financial risks but have not deteriorated to the point that resolution is imminent. The rescission was effective May 1, 2026.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures
Table A—Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures
The following non-GAAP measures consist of TCE, tangible assets and metrics computed using these amounts, which include tangible book value per common share, return on average tangible assets, return on average TCE and TCE ratio. We consider these metrics to be key financial performance measures that management uses when assessing returns and capital management over time. While these non-GAAP measures are widely used by investors, analysts and bank regulatory agencies to assess the capital position of financial services companies, they may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. The following table presents reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the applicable amounts measured in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These non-GAAP measures should not be viewed as a substitute for reported results determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

NOTE 1—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The Company
Capital One Financial Corporation, a Delaware corporation established in 1994 and headquartered in McLean, Virginia, is a diversified financial services holding company with banking and non-banking subsidiaries. Capital One Financial Corporation and its subsidiaries (the “Company” or “Capital One”) operate as a global payments provider and diversified financial institution, delivering a broad array of financial products and services to consumers, small businesses and commercial clients through digital channels, branch locations, cafés and other distribution channels.
As of March 31, 2026, Capital One Financial Corporation’s principal operating subsidiary was Capital One, National Association (“CONA”). On May 18, 2025 (the “Closing Date”), Discover Financial Services (“Discover”) merged into Capital One and Discover Bank merged into CONA. See “Note 2—Business Combinations” for additional information. The Company is hereafter collectively referred to as “we,” “us” or “our.” CONA is referred to as the “Bank.”
We offer credit cards, debit cards, bank lending, treasury management and depository services, auto loans, and other consumer lending products in markets across the United States (“U.S.”). We service banking customer accounts through digital channels and our network of branch locations, cafés, call centers and automated teller machines (“ATMs”). Additionally, through the acquisition of Discover, we acquired new products including personal loans as well as the Discover Network, the PULSE Network and Diners Club (collectively, the “Global Payment Network”).
We also offer credit card products and certain other services outside of the U.S. principally through Capital One (Europe) plc (“COEP”), an indirect subsidiary of CONA organized and located in the United Kingdom (“U.K.”), and through a branch of CONA in Canada. Both COEP and our Canadian branch of CONA have the authority to provide credit card loans. In addition, we offer Global Payment Network services globally.
Our principal operations are organized for management reporting purposes into three major business segments, which are defined primarily based on the products and services provided or the types of customer served: Credit Card, Consumer Banking and Commercial Banking. We provide details on our business segments, the integration of any recent material acquisitions into our business segments, and the allocation methodologies and accounting policies used to derive our business segment results in “Note 13—Business Segments and Revenue from Contracts with Customers.”
Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and in the related disclosures. These estimates are based on information available as of the date of the consolidated financial statements. While management makes its best judgments, actual amounts or results could differ from these estimates. In the opinion of management, all normal, recurring adjustments have been included for a fair statement of this interim financial information.
These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements, and related notes thereto, included in Capital One Financial Corporation’s 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K (“2025 Form 10-K”). We have described relevant updates to the significant accounting policies presented in 2025 Form 10-K below. The following policies for investment securities are included as the Company began classifying certain newly acquired debt securities as held-to-maturity during the three months ended March 31, 2026.
Investment Securities
Our investment securities portfolio consists of the following debt securities: U.S. government-sponsored enterprise or agency (“GSE” or “Agency”) and non-agency residential mortgage-backed securities (“RMBS”), agency commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”), U.S. Treasury securities and other debt securities. The accounting and measurement framework for our investment securities differs depending on the security classification.
We classify investment securities as available for sale or held to maturity based on our investment strategy and management’s assessment of our intent and ability to hold the securities until maturity. Securities that we may sell prior to maturity in response
| | | | | | | | |
|
| 77 | Capital One Financial Corporation (COF) |
to changes in our investment strategy, liquidity needs, interest rate risk profile or for other reasons are classified as available for sale. Securities that we have the intent and ability to hold until maturity are classified as held to maturity.
We report investment securities available for sale on our consolidated balance sheets at fair value with unrealized gains or losses recorded, net of tax, as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”). We report investment securities held to maturity at amortized cost, net of allowance for credit losses. The amortized cost basis of investment securities reflects the amount for which the security was acquired, adjusted for accrued interest, amortization of premiums, discounts, and net deferred fees and costs, any applicable fair value hedge accounting adjustments, collection of cash, and charge-offs. Investment securities transferred into the held to maturity category from the available for sale category are recorded at fair value at the date of transfer. Any unrealized gains or losses at the transfer date are thereafter included in AOCI. Such unrealized gains or losses are amortized over the remaining life of the security and are expected to offset the amortization of the related premium or discount created upon the investment securities transfer into the held to maturity category, with no expected impact on future net income.
Unamortized premiums, discounts and other basis adjustments for investment securities are generally recognized in interest income over the contractual lives of the securities using the interest method. However, premiums on certain callable investment securities are amortized to the earliest call date. We record purchases and sales of investment securities on a trade date basis. Realized gains or losses from the sale of investment securities are computed using the first-in first-out method of identification, and are included in non-interest income in our consolidated statements of income. We elect to present accrued interest for investment securities within interest receivable on our consolidated balance sheets.
An individual available for sale security is impaired when the fair value of the security is less than its amortized cost basis. For impaired securities that we have both the intent and ability to hold, the securities are evaluated to determine if a credit loss exists. The allowance for credit losses on our investment securities is recognized through our provision for credit losses. For investment securities classified as available for sale, this allowance is limited by the unrealized losses of a security measured as the difference between the security’s amortized cost basis and fair value. See further discussion below under the “Allowance for Credit Losses - Investment Securities” section of this Note.
If we intend to sell an available for sale security in an unrealized loss position or it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security prior to recovery of its amortized cost basis, any allowance for credit losses is reversed through our provision for credit losses and the difference between the amortized cost basis of the security and its fair value is recognized in our consolidated statements of income.
We charge off any portion of an investment security that we determine is uncollectible. The amortized cost basis, excluding accrued interest, is charged off through the allowance for credit losses. Accrued interest is charged off as a reduction to interest income. Recoveries of previously charged off principal amounts are recognized in our provision for credit losses when received.
Allowance for Credit Losses - Investment Securities
For our investment securities held to maturity and the vast majority of our securities available for sale, we have determined that there is no risk of impairment due to credit factors. These investment securities include high-quality debt instruments that are issued and guaranteed by the United States (“U.S.”) government or issued by GSEs or Agencies, certain foreign sovereign governments or supranational organizations. Accordingly, no allowance for credit losses is recognized for these investment securities. Management performs periodic assessments to reevaluate this conclusion by considering any changes in historical losses, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts.
For our remaining securities available for sale, we maintain an allowance for credit losses that represents management’s current estimate of expected credit losses over the contractual terms. When an investment security available for sale is impaired due to credit factors, we recognize that impairment through the provision for credit losses in our consolidated statements of income and correspondingly establish an allowance for credit losses on our consolidated balance sheets. Credit losses recognized in the allowance for credit losses are limited to the amount by which the investment security’s amortized cost basis exceeds its fair value. Investment securities in unrealized gain positions do not have any allowance for credit losses as the investment security could be sold at its fair value to prevent realization of any credit losses. We exclude accrued interest from the fair value and amortized cost basis of an investment security for purposes of measuring impairment. Charge-offs of uncollectible amounts of investment securities are deducted from the allowance for credit losses.

We evaluate impairment on a quarterly basis at the individual security level and determine whether any portion of the decline in fair value is due to a credit loss. We make this determination through the use of quantitative and qualitative analyses. Our qualitative analysis includes factors such as the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost basis, any changes in the security’s credit rating, past defaults or delayed payments, and adverse conditions impacting the security or issuer. A credit loss exists to the extent that management does not expect to recover the amortized cost basis.
For investment securities which require further assessment, we perform a quantitative analysis using a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) methodology and compare the present value of expected future cash flows to the security’s amortized cost basis. Projected future cash flows reflect management’s best estimate and are based on our understanding of past events, current conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts, and are discounted by the security’s effective interest rate adjusted for prepayments. The allowance for credit losses for investment securities reflects the difference by which the amortized cost basis exceeds the present value of future cash flows and is limited to the amount by which the security’s amortized cost basis exceeds its fair value. See “Note 3—Investment Securities” for additional information.

The table below summarizes, as of March 31, 2026, the fair value of our investment securities by major security type and contractual maturity as well as the total fair value, amortized cost basis and weighted-average yields of our investment securities by contractual maturity. Since borrowers may have the right to call or prepay certain obligations, the expected maturities of our securities are likely to differ from the scheduled contractual maturities presented below. The weighted-average
| | | | | | | | |
|
| 82 | Capital One Financial Corporation (COF) |
yield below represents the effective yield for the investment securities presented on a pre-tax basis and is calculated based on the amortized cost basis of each security, inclusive of the contractual coupon, the impact of any premium amortization or discount accretion and any basis adjustments resulting from discontinued hedge accounting relationships. The effective yield is calculated to the contractural maturity or to the earliest call date for certain callable debt securities.

Credit Quality Indicators
We closely monitor economic conditions and loan performance trends to assess and manage our exposure to credit risk. We discuss these risks and our credit quality indicator for each portfolio below.
Credit Card
Our Credit Card segment is highly diversified across millions of accounts and numerous geographies without significant individual exposure. We therefore generally manage credit risk based on portfolios with common risk characteristics. The risk in our Credit Card segment correlates to broad economic trends, such as the U.S. unemployment rate and U.S. Real Gross Domestic Product growth rate, as well as consumers’ financial condition, all of which can have a material effect on credit performance. The key indicator we assess in monitoring the credit quality and risk of our Credit Card segment is delinquency trends, including an analysis of loan migration between delinquency categories over time.
The tables below present our Credit Card segment by delinquency status as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

Consumer Banking
Our Consumer Banking segment consists of auto and retail banking loans. Similar to our Credit Card segment, the risk in our Consumer Banking segment correlates to broad economic trends as well as consumers’ financial condition, all of which can have a material effect on credit performance. The key indicator we consider when assessing the credit quality and risk of our auto loan portfolio is borrower credit scores as they measure the creditworthiness of borrowers. Delinquency trends are the key indicator we assess in monitoring the credit quality and risk of our retail banking loan portfolio.
The table below presents loans held for investment in our Consumer Banking segment loans held for investment by credit quality indicator as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. We present our auto loan portfolio by Fair Isaac Corporation (“FICO”) scores at origination and our retail banking loan portfolio by delinquency status, which includes all past due loans, both performing and nonperforming.

Commercial Banking
The key credit quality indicator for our Commercial Banking segment is our internal risk ratings. We assign internal risk ratings to loans based on relevant information about the ability of the borrowers to repay their debt. In determining the risk rating of a particular loan, some of the factors considered are the borrower’s current financial condition, historical and projected future credit performance, prospects for support from financially responsible guarantors, the estimated realizable value of any collateral and current economic trends. The scale based on our internal risk rating system is as follows:
•Noncriticized: Loans that have not been designated as criticized, frequently referred to as “pass” loans.
•Criticized performing: Loans in which the financial condition of the obligor is stressed, affecting earnings, cash flows or collateral values. The borrower currently has adequate capacity to meet near-term obligations; however, the stress, left unabated, may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects at some future date.
•Criticized nonperforming: Loans that are not adequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or the collateral pledged, if any. Loans classified as criticized nonperforming have a well-defined weakness, or weaknesses, which jeopardize the full repayment of the debt. These loans are characterized by the distinct possibility that we will sustain a credit loss if the deficiencies are not corrected and are generally placed on nonaccrual status.
We use our internal risk rating system for regulatory reporting, determining the frequency of credit exposure reviews, and evaluating and determining the allowance for credit losses. Generally, loans that are designated as criticized performing and criticized nonperforming are reviewed quarterly by management to determine if they are appropriately classified/rated and whether any impairment exists. Noncriticized loans are generally reviewed, at least annually, to determine the appropriate risk rating. In addition, we evaluate the risk rating during the renewal process of any loan or if a loan becomes past due.
The following table presents loans held for investment for our Commercial Banking segment by internal risk ratings as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The internal risk rating status includes all past due loans, both performing and nonperforming.

Financial Difficulty Modifications to Borrowers
As part of our loss mitigation efforts, we may provide short-term (one to twelve months) or long-term (greater than twelve months) modifications to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty to improve long-term collectibility of the loan and to avoid the need for repossession or foreclosure of collateral. Our modification programs and balances include those in place at Discover prior to the Transaction. The Company also allows permanent loan modifications for Credit Card customers who request financial assistance through external sources. The Company will in certain cases accept partial payment in full satisfaction of the outstanding receivable known as settlements. The settlement typically includes a waiver of unpaid principal, interest or fees.
We consider the impact of all loan modifications when estimating the credit quality of our loan portfolio and establishing allowance levels. For our Commercial Banking customers, loan modifications are also considered in the assignment of an internal risk rating.
For additional information on financial difficulty modifications (“FDMs”), see “Part II—Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Note 1—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in our 2025 Form 10-K.
The following tables present the major modification types, amortized cost basis amounts for each modification type and financial effects for all FDMs undertaken during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

Performance of Financial Difficulty Modifications to Borrowers
We monitor loan performance trends, including FDMs, to assess and manage our exposure to credit risk. See “Part II—Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Note 1—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in our 2025 Form 10-K for additional information on how the allowance for modified loans is calculated for each portfolio. FDMs are accumulated and the performance of each loan that received an FDM is reported on a rolling 12-month basis.
The following tables present FDMs over a rolling 12-month period by delinquency status as of March 31, 2026 and 2025. For the 12-month period ended March 31, 2026, the table includes amounts of FDMs from the acquired Discover portfolio, including loans which were modified prior to the Closing Date.

__________
(1)Commitments to lend additional funds on FDMs totaled $173 million and $225 million as of March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
(2)Includes $315 million of FDMs as of March 31, 2026 that were modified prior to the Closing Date.
Subsequent Defaults of Financial Difficulty Modifications to Borrowers
FDMs may subsequently enter default. A default occurs if a FDM is either 90 days or more delinquent, has been charged off, or has been reclassified from accrual to nonaccrual status. Loans that entered a modification program while in default are not considered to have subsequently defaulted for purposes of this disclosure. The allowance for any FDMs that have subsequently defaulted is measured using the same methodology as the allowance for loans held for investment. See “Part II—Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Note 1—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in our 2025 Form 10-K for additional information.
The following table presents FDMs that entered subsequent default for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the tables include amounts of FDMs from the acquired Discover portfolio, including loans which were modified or entered subsequent default prior to the Closing Date.

NOTE 5—ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES AND RESERVE FOR UNFUNDED LENDING COMMITMENTS |
Our allowance for credit losses represents management’s current estimate of expected credit losses over the contractual terms of our loans held for investment as of each balance sheet date. Expected recoveries of amounts previously charged off or expected to be charged off are recognized within the allowance. Significant judgment is applied in our estimation of lifetime credit losses. When developing an estimate of expected credit losses, we use both quantitative and qualitative methods in considering all available information relevant to assessing collectibility. This may include internal information, external information, or a combination of both relating to past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Our estimate of expected credit losses includes a reasonable and supportable forecast period of one year and then reverts over a one-year period to historical losses at each relevant loss component of the estimate. Management will consider and may qualitatively adjust for conditions, changes and trends in loan portfolios that may not be captured in modeled results. These adjustments are referred to as qualitative factors and represent management’s judgment of the imprecision and risks inherent in the processes and assumptions used in establishing the allowance for credit losses.
We have unfunded lending commitments in our Commercial Banking business that are not unconditionally cancellable by us and for which we estimate expected credit losses in establishing a reserve. This reserve is measured using the same measurement objectives as the allowance for loans held for investment. We build or release the reserve for unfunded lending commitments through the provision for credit losses in our consolidated statements of income. The related reserve for unfunded lending commitments is included in other liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets.
See “Part II—Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Note 1—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in our 2025 Form 10-K for further discussion of the methodology and policies for determining our allowance for credit losses, as well as information on our reserve for unfunded lending commitments.

The table below summarizes changes in the allowance for credit losses and reserve for unfunded lending commitments by segment for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. Our allowance for credit losses increased by $221 million to $23.6 billion as of March 31, 2026 from December 31, 2025.

We charge off loans when we determine that the loan is uncollectible. The amortized cost basis, excluding accrued interest, is charged off as a reduction to the allowance for credit losses in accordance with our accounting policies. For more information, see “Part II—Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Note 1—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in our 2025 Form 10-K.
Expected recoveries of amounts previously charged off or expected to be charged off are recognized within the allowance, with a corresponding reduction to our provision for credit losses.

Credit Card Partnership Loss Sharing Arrangements
We have certain credit card partnership agreements that are presented within our consolidated financial statements on a net basis, in which our partner agrees to share a portion of the credit losses on the underlying loan portfolio. The expected reimbursements from these partners are netted against our allowance for credit losses. Our methodology for estimating reimbursements is consistent with the methodology we use to estimate the allowance for credit losses on our credit card loan receivables. These expected reimbursements result in reductions in net charge-offs and the provision for credit losses. See “Part II—Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Note 1—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in our 2025 Form 10-K for further discussion of our credit card partnership agreements.
The table below summarizes the changes in the estimated reimbursements from these partners for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

NOTE 6—VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES AND SECURITIZATIONS |
In the normal course of business, we enter into various types of transactions with entities that are considered to be variable interest entities (“VIEs”). Our primary involvement with VIEs is related to our securitization transactions in which we transfer assets to securitization trusts. We primarily securitize credit card and auto loans, which provide a source of funding for us and enable us to transfer a certain portion of the economic risk of the loans or related debt securities to third parties.
The entity that has a controlling financial interest in a VIE is referred to as the primary beneficiary and is required to consolidate the VIE.
Summary of Consolidated and Unconsolidated VIEs
The assets of our consolidated VIEs primarily consist of cash, loan receivables and the related allowance for credit losses, which we report on our consolidated balance sheets under restricted cash for securitization investors, loans held in consolidated trusts and allowance for credit losses, respectively. The assets of a particular VIE are the primary source of funds to settle its obligations. Creditors of these VIEs typically do not have recourse to our general credit. Liabilities primarily consist of debt securities issued by the VIEs, which we report under securitized debt obligations on our consolidated balance sheets. For unconsolidated VIEs, we present the carrying amount of assets and liabilities reflected on our consolidated balance sheets and our maximum exposure to loss. Our maximum exposure to loss is estimated based on the unlikely event that all of the assets in the VIEs become worthless and we are required to meet the maximum amount of any remaining funding obligations.
The tables below present a summary of VIEs in which we had continuing involvement or held a significant variable interest, aggregated based on VIEs with similar characteristics as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. We separately present information for consolidated and unconsolidated VIEs.

__________(1)Excludes insignificant VIEs from previously exited businesses.
(2)Represents the carrying amount of assets and liabilities of the VIE, which includes the seller’s interest and repurchased notes held by other related parties.
(3)In certain investment structures, we consolidate a VIE which holds as its primary asset an investment in an unconsolidated VIE. In these instances, we disclose the carrying amount of assets and liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets as unconsolidated VIEs to avoid duplicating our exposure, as the unconsolidated VIEs are generally the operating entities generating the exposure. The carrying amount of assets and liabilities included in the unconsolidated VIE columns above related to these investment structures were $3.1 billion of assets and $1.2 billion of liabilities as of March 31, 2026 and $3.0 billion of assets and $1.2 billion of liabilities as of December 31, 2025.
(4)Primarily consists of variable interests in companies that promote renewable energy sources and other equity method investments.
Securitization-Related VIEs
In a securitization transaction, assets are transferred to a trust, which generally meets the definition of a VIE. We engage in securitization activities as an issuer and an investor. Our primary securitization issuance activity includes credit card and auto securitizations, conducted through securitization trusts which we consolidate. Our continuing involvement in these securitization transactions mainly consists of acting as the primary servicer and holding certain retained interests. We also originate multifamily commercial real estate loans and transfer them to GSEs, which may, in turn, securitize them, where we do not consolidate the securitization trusts employed in these transactions.
Credit Card and Auto Securitizations
We securitize a portion of our credit card receivables and auto loans, which provides a source of funding for us. These securitizations involve the transfer of assets, including credit card receivables and auto loans, into respective securitization trusts. These trusts then issue debt securities collateralized by the transferred assets to third-party investors. We hold certain retained interests and continue to service the assets in these trusts. We consolidate these trusts because we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary as we have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the trusts, and the right to receive benefits or the obligation to absorb losses that could potentially be significant to the trusts.
Our primary credit card securitization platform is the Capital One Multi-asset Execution Trust securitization program. As part of the Transaction in May 2025, we acquired the Discover Card Execution Note Trust (“DCENT”) securitization program. In December 2025, we defeased the outstanding DiscoverSeries Class A Notes issued by DCENT (the “Class A Notes”) as part of the wind-down of that issuance platform. In connection with the defeasance, DCENT’s interest in the underlying credit card receivables collateral was replaced with defeasance collateral consisting of U.S. Treasury bills, cash, or a combination of both in an aggregate amount that is expected to be sufficient to pay the remaining principal of, and interest on, the defeased Class A Notes in accordance with their terms. Consequently, we no longer transfer new credit card receivables into the DCENT securitization trust or issue new debt securities from this program.
| | | | | | | | |
|
| 104 | Capital One Financial Corporation (COF) |
Multifamily Agency Securitization Activity
In our multifamily agency business, we originate multifamily commercial real estate loans and transfer them to GSEs who may, in turn, securitize them. We retain the related mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) and service the transferred loans pursuant to the guidelines set forth by the GSEs. We do not consolidate the securitization trusts employed in these transactions as we do not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of these securitization trusts. We exclude these VIEs from the tables within this note because we do not consider our continuing involvement with these VIEs to be significant. Our maximum exposure to loss as a result of our involvement with these VIEs is the carrying value of the MSRs and investment securities on our consolidated balance sheets as well as our contractual obligations under loss sharing arrangements. See “Note 14—Commitments, Contingencies, Guarantees and Others” for information about the loss sharing agreements, “Note 7—Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” for information related to our MSRs associated with these securitizations and “Note 3—Investment Securities” for more information on the securities held in our investment securities portfolio.
Other VIEs
Affordable Housing Entities
As part of our community reinvestment initiatives, we invest in private investment funds that make equity investments in multifamily affordable housing properties, a majority of which are VIEs. We receive affordable housing tax credits for these investments. The activities of these entities are financed with a combination of invested equity capital and debt. We account for our investments in qualified affordable housing projects using the proportional amortization method, where costs of the investment are amortized over the period in which the investor expects to receive tax credits and other tax benefits, and the resulting amortization is recognized as a component of income tax expense attributable to continuing operations. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, we recognized amortization of $179 million and $159 million, respectively, and tax credits of $179 million and $153 million, respectively, associated with these investments within income tax provision. The carrying value of our equity investments in these qualified affordable housing projects was $6.2 billion as of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. We are periodically required to provide additional financial or other support during the period of the investments. Our liability for these unfunded commitments was $2.4 billion and $2.5 billion as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, and is largely expected to be paid from 2026 to 2029.
For those investment funds considered to be VIEs, we are not required to consolidate them if we do not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of those entities. We record our interests in these unconsolidated VIEs in loans held for investment, other assets and other liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. Our maximum exposure to these entities is limited to our variable interests in the entities which consisted of assets of approximately $6.5 billion as of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The creditors of the VIEs have no recourse to our general credit and we do not provide additional financial or other support other than during the period that we are contractually required to provide it. The total assets of the unconsolidated VIE investment funds were approximately $17.7 billion and $18.2 billion as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
Entities that Provide Capital to Low-Income and Rural Communities
We hold variable interests in entities (“Investor Entities”) that invest in community development entities (“CDEs”) that provide debt financing to businesses and non-profit entities in low-income and rural communities. Variable interests in the CDEs held by the consolidated Investor Entities are also our variable interests. The activities of the Investor Entities are financed with a combination of invested equity capital and debt. The activities of the CDEs are financed solely with invested equity capital. We receive federal and state tax credits for these investments. We consolidate the VIEs in which we have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and where we have the obligation to absorb losses or right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. We consolidate other investments and CDEs that are not considered to be VIEs, but where we hold a controlling financial interest. The assets of the VIEs that we consolidated, which totaled approximately $3.0 billion and $2.9 billion as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, are reflected on our consolidated balance sheets in cash, loans held for investment, and other assets. The liabilities are reflected in other liabilities. The creditors of the VIEs have no recourse to our general credit. We have not provided additional financial or other support other than during the period that we are contractually required to provide it.

Other
We hold variable interests in other VIEs, including companies that promote renewable energy sources and other equity method investments. We are not required to consolidate these VIEs because we do not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact their economic performance. Our maximum exposure to these VIEs is limited to the investments on our consolidated balance sheets of $1.3 billion and $1.4 billion as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The creditors of the other VIEs have no recourse to our general credit. We have not provided additional financial or other support other than during the period that we are contractually required to provide it.
Our renewable energy source equity investments subject to proportional amortization had a carrying value of $1.1 billion as of March 31, 2026. We are periodically required to provide additional financial or other support during the period of the investments. Our liability for these unfunded commitments was $146 million as of March 31, 2026, and is expected to be paid from 2026 to 2034.
In addition, where we have certain lending arrangements in the normal course of business with entities that could be VIEs and act as an investor in RMBS, CMBS and ABS which are issued from securitization trusts, we have excluded these VIEs from the tables presented in this note. See “Note 3—Investment Securities” and “Note 4—Loans” for additional information regarding our investment securities portfolio and lending arrangements in the normal course of business.

NOTE 8—DEPOSITS AND BORROWINGS |
Our deposits, which include checking accounts, money market deposits, negotiable order of withdrawals, savings deposits, time deposits, and sweep accounts, represent our largest source of funding for our assets and operations. We also use a variety of other funding sources including short-term borrowings, senior and subordinated notes, securitized debt obligations and other borrowings. Securitized debt obligations are presented separately on our consolidated balance sheets, as they represent obligations of consolidated securitization trusts. Federal funds purchased and securities loaned or sold under agreements to repurchase, senior and subordinated notes and other borrowings, including FHLB advances, are included in other debt on our consolidated balance sheets.
Our total short-term borrowings generally consist of federal funds purchased, securities loaned or sold under agreements to repurchase and FHLB advances. Our long-term debt consists of borrowings with an original contractual maturity of greater than one year. The following tables summarize the components of our deposits, short-term borrowings and long-term debt as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The carrying value presented below for these borrowings includes any unamortized debt premiums and discounts, net of debt issuance costs and fair value hedge accounting adjustments.

NOTE 9—DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES |
Use of Derivatives and Accounting for Derivatives
We regularly enter into derivative transactions to support our overall risk management activities. Our primary market risks stem from the impact on our earnings and economic value of equity due to changes in interest rates and, to a lesser extent, changes in foreign exchange rates. We manage our interest rate sensitivity by employing several techniques, which include changing the duration and repricing characteristics of various assets and liabilities by using interest rate derivatives. We also use foreign currency derivatives to limit our earnings and capital exposures to foreign exchange risk by hedging certain exposures denominated in foreign currencies. We use derivative instruments such as interest rate and foreign currency swaps, options, futures and forward contracts to manage our interest rate and foreign exchange risks. We designate these risk management derivatives as either qualifying accounting hedges or free-standing derivatives. Qualifying accounting hedges are further designated as fair value hedges, cash flow hedges or net investment hedges. Free-standing derivatives are economic hedges that do not qualify for hedge accounting.
We offer interest rate, commodity, foreign currency derivatives and other contracts as an accommodation to our customers within our Commercial Banking business. We enter into these derivatives with our customers primarily to help them manage their interest rate risks, hedge their energy and other commodities exposures, and manage foreign currency fluctuations. We offset the substantial majority of the market risk exposure of our customer accommodation derivatives through derivative transactions with other counterparties.
See below for additional information on our use of derivatives and how we account for them:
•Fair Value Hedges: We designate derivatives as fair value hedges when they are used to manage our exposure to changes in the fair value of certain financial assets and liabilities, which fluctuate in value as a result of movements in interest rates. Changes in the fair value of derivatives designated as fair value hedges are presented in the same line item in our consolidated statements of income as the earnings effect of the hedged items. We enter into receive-fixed, pay-float interest rate swaps to hedge changes in the fair value of outstanding fixed rate debt and deposits due to fluctuations in market interest rates. We also enter into pay-fixed, receive-float interest rate swaps to hedge changes in the fair value of fixed rate investment securities.
•Cash Flow Hedges: We designate derivatives as cash flow hedges when they are used to manage our exposure to variability in cash flows related to forecasted transactions. Changes in the fair value of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges are recorded as a component of AOCI. Those amounts are reclassified into earnings in the same period during which the hedged forecasted transactions impact earnings and presented in the same line item in our consolidated statements of income as the earnings effect of the hedged items. We enter into receive-fixed, pay-float interest rate swaps and interest rate floors to modify the interest rate characteristics of designated credit card and commercial loans from floating to fixed in order to reduce the impact of changes in forecasted future cash flows due to fluctuations in market interest rates. We also enter into foreign currency forward contracts to hedge our exposure to variability in cash flows related to intercompany borrowings denominated in foreign currencies.
•Net Investment Hedges: We use net investment hedges to manage the foreign currency exposure related to our net investments in foreign operations that have functional currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Changes in the fair value of net investment hedges are recorded in the translation adjustment component of AOCI, offsetting the translation gain or loss from those foreign operations. We execute net investment hedges using foreign currency forward contracts to hedge the translation exposure of the net investment in our foreign operations under the forward method.
•Free-Standing Derivatives: Our free-standing derivatives primarily consist of our customer accommodation derivatives and other economic hedges. The customer accommodation derivatives and the related offsetting contracts are mainly interest rate, commodity and foreign currency contracts. The other free-standing derivatives are primarily used to economically hedge the risk of changes in the fair value of our commercial mortgage loan origination and purchase commitments as well as other interests held. Changes in the fair value of free-standing derivatives are recorded in earnings as a component of other non-interest income.

Derivatives Counterparty Credit Risk
Counterparty Types
Derivative instruments contain an element of credit risk that stems from the potential failure of a counterparty to perform according to the terms of the contract, including making payments due upon maturity of certain derivative instruments. We execute our derivative contracts primarily in over-the-counter (“OTC”) markets. We also execute interest rate and commodity futures in the exchange-traded derivative markets. Our OTC derivatives consist of both trades cleared through central counterparty clearinghouses (“CCPs”) and uncleared bilateral contracts. The Chicago Mercantile Exchange (“CME”), the Intercontinental Exchange (“ICE”) and the LCH Group (“LCH”) are our CCPs for our centrally cleared contracts. In our uncleared bilateral contracts, we enter into agreements directly with our derivative counterparties.
Counterparty Credit Risk Management
We manage the counterparty credit risk associated with derivative instruments by entering into legally enforceable master netting agreements, where applicable, and exchanging collateral with our counterparties, typically in the form of cash or high-quality liquid securities. We exchange collateral in two primary forms: variation margin, which accounts for changes in market value due to daily market movements, and initial margin, which offsets the potential future exposure of a derivative. We exchange variation margin and initial margin on bilateral derivatives in scope for uncleared margin rules.
The amount of collateral exchanged for variation margin is dependent upon the fair value of the derivative instruments as well as the fair value of the pledged collateral and will vary over time as market variables change. The amount of the initial margin exchanged is dependent upon (1) the calculation of initial margin exposure, as prescribed by (a) the U.S. prudential regulators’ margin rules for uncleared derivatives or (b) the CCPs for cleared derivatives and (2) the fair value of the pledged collateral; it will vary over time as market variables change. When valuing collateral, an estimate of the variation in price and liquidity over time is subtracted in the form of a “haircut” to discount the value of the collateral pledged. Our exposure to derivative counterparty credit risk, at any point in time, is equal to the amount reported as a derivative asset on our consolidated balance sheets. The fair value of our derivatives is adjusted on an aggregate basis to take into consideration the effects of legally enforceable master netting agreements and any associated collateral received or pledged. See Table 9.3 for our net exposure associated with derivatives.
The terms under which we collateralize our exposures differ between cleared exposures and uncleared bilateral exposures.
•CCPs: We clear eligible OTC derivatives with CCPs as part of our regulatory requirements. We also clear exchange-traded instruments, like futures, with CCPs. Futures commission merchants (“FCMs”) serve as the intermediary between CCPs and us. CCPs require that we post initial and variation margin through our FCMs to mitigate the risk of non-payment or default. Initial margin is required by CCPs as collateral against potential losses on our exchange-traded and cleared derivative contracts and variation margin is exchanged on a daily basis to account for mark-to-market changes in those derivative contracts. For CME, ICE and LCH cleared OTC derivatives, variation margin cash payments are required to be characterized as settlements. Our FCM agreements governing these derivative transactions include provisions that may require us to post additional collateral under certain circumstances.
•Bilateral Counterparties: We enter into master netting agreements and collateral agreements with bilateral derivative counterparties, where applicable, to mitigate the risk of default. These bilateral agreements typically provide the right to offset exposure with the same counterparty and require the party in a net liability position to post collateral. Agreements with certain bilateral counterparties require both parties to maintain collateral in the event the fair values of uncleared derivatives exceed established exposure thresholds. Certain of these bilateral agreements include provisions requiring that our debt maintain a credit rating of investment grade or above by each of the major credit rating agencies. In the event of a downgrade of our debt credit rating below investment grade, some of our counterparties would have the right to terminate their derivative contract and close out existing positions.

| 111 | Capital One Financial Corporation (COF) |
Credit Risk Valuation Adjustments
We record counterparty credit valuation adjustments (“CVAs”) on our derivative assets to reflect the credit quality of our counterparties. We consider collateral and legally enforceable master netting agreements that mitigate our credit exposure to each counterparty in determining CVAs, which may be adjusted due to changes in the fair values of the derivative contracts, collateral, and creditworthiness of the counterparty. We also record debit valuation adjustments to adjust the fair values of our derivative liabilities to reflect the impact of our own credit quality.
Balance Sheet Presentation
The following table summarizes the notional amounts and fair values of our derivative instruments as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, which are segregated by derivatives that are designated as accounting hedges and those that are not, and are further segregated by type of contract within those two categories. The total derivative assets and liabilities are adjusted on an aggregate basis to take into consideration the effects of legally enforceable master netting agreements and any associated cash collateral received or pledged. Derivative assets and liabilities are included in other assets and other liabilities, respectively, on our consolidated balance sheets, and their related gains or losses are included in operating activities as changes in other assets and other liabilities in the consolidated statements of cash flows.

Balance Sheet Offsetting of Financial Assets and Liabilities
Derivative contracts and repurchase agreements that we execute bilaterally in the OTC market are generally governed by enforceable master netting agreements where we generally have the right to offset exposure with the same counterparty. Either counterparty can generally request to net settle all contracts through a single payment upon default on, or termination of, any one contract. We elect to offset the derivative assets and liabilities under master netting agreements for balance sheet presentation where a right of setoff exists. For derivative contracts entered into under master netting agreements for which we have not been able to confirm the enforceability of the setoff rights, or those not subject to master netting agreements, we do not offset our derivative positions for balance sheet presentation.
The following table presents the gross and net fair values of our derivative assets, derivative liabilities, resale and repurchase agreements and the related offsetting amounts permitted under U.S. GAAP as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The table also includes cash and non-cash collateral received or pledged in accordance with such arrangements. The amount of collateral presented, however, is limited to the amount of the related net derivative fair values or outstanding balances; therefore, instances of over-collateralization are excluded.

__________(1)Includes amortization benefit of $20 million and $10 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, related to basis adjustments on discontinued hedges.
(2)Changes in fair values of cross-currency swaps attributable to changes in cross-currency basis spreads are excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness and recorded in other comprehensive income (“OCI”). The initial value of the excluded component is recognized in earnings over the life of the swap under the amortization approach.
(3)See “Note 10—Stockholders’ Equity” for the effects of cash flow and net investment hedges on AOCI and amounts reclassified to net income, net of tax.
(4)We recognized a gain of $76 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and a loss of $126 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 on foreign exchange contracts reclassified from AOCI. These amounts were largely offset by the foreign currency transaction gains (losses) on our foreign currency denominated intercompany funding included in other non-interest income on our consolidated statements of income.
In the next 12 months, we expect to reclassify into earnings an after-tax loss of $446 million recorded in AOCI as of March 31, 2026 associated with cash flow hedges of forecasted transactions. This amount will largely offset the cash flows associated with the forecasted transactions hedged by these derivatives. The maximum length of time over which forecasted transactions were hedged was approximately 9.0 years as of March 31, 2026. The amount we expect to reclassify into earnings may change as a result of changes in market conditions and ongoing actions taken as part of our overall risk management strategy.

NOTE 12—FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT |
Fair value, also referred to as an exit price, is defined as the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair value accounting guidance provides a three-level fair value hierarchy for classifying financial instruments. This hierarchy is based on the markets in which the assets or liabilities trade and whether the inputs to the valuation techniques used to measure fair value are observable or unobservable. The fair value measurement of a financial asset or liability is assigned a level based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
| | | | | | | | |
| Level 1: | | Valuation is based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. |
| Level 2: | | Valuation is based on observable market-based inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. |
| Level 3: | | Valuation is generated from techniques that use significant assumptions not observable in the market. Valuation techniques include pricing models, DCF methodologies or similar techniques. |
The accounting guidance for fair value measurements requires that we maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs in determining fair value. We consider all available information, including observable market data, indications of market liquidity and orderliness, and our understanding of the valuation techniques and significant inputs. Based upon the specific facts and circumstances of each instrument or instrument category, judgments are made regarding the significance of the observable or unobservable inputs to the instruments’ fair value measurement in its entirety. If unobservable inputs are considered significant, the instrument is classified as Level 3. The process for determining fair value using unobservable inputs is generally more subjective and involves a high degree of management judgment and assumptions. The accounting guidance provides for the irrevocable option to elect, on a contract-by-contract basis, to measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value at inception of the contract and record any subsequent changes in fair value in earnings.
The determination and classification of financial instruments in the fair value hierarchy is performed at the end of each reporting period. For additional information on the valuation techniques used in estimating the fair value of our financial assets and liabilities on a recurring basis, see “Part II—Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Note 17—Fair Value Measurement” in our 2025 Form 10-K.

Level 3 Recurring Fair Value Rollforward
The table below presents a reconciliation for all assets and liabilities measured and recognized at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. Generally, transfers into Level 3 were primarily driven by the usage of unobservable assumptions in the pricing of these financial instruments as evidenced by wider pricing variations among pricing vendors and transfers out of Level 3 were primarily driven by the usage of assumptions corroborated by market observable information as evidenced by tighter pricing among multiple pricing sources.

Significant Level 3 Fair Value Asset and Liability Inputs
Generally, uncertainties in fair value measurements of financial instruments, such as changes in unobservable inputs, may have a significant impact on fair value. Certain of these unobservable inputs will, in isolation, have a directionally consistent impact on the fair value of the instrument for a given change in that input. Alternatively, the fair value of the instrument may move in an opposite direction for a given change in another input. In general, an increase in the discount rate, default rates, loss severity or credit spreads, in isolation, would result in a decrease in the fair value measurement. In addition, an increase in default rates would generally be accompanied by a decrease in recovery rates, slower prepayment rates and an increase in liquidity spreads, and would lead to a decrease in the fair value measurement.
Techniques and Inputs for Level 3 Fair Value Measurements
The following table presents the significant unobservable inputs used to determine the fair values of our Level 3 financial instruments on a recurring basis. We utilize multiple vendor pricing services to obtain fair value for our securities. Several of our vendor pricing services are only able to provide unobservable input information for a limited number of securities due to software licensing restrictions. Other vendor pricing services are able to provide unobservable input information for all securities for which they provide a valuation. As a result, the unobservable input information for the securities available for sale presented below represents a composite summary of all information we are able to obtain. The unobservable input information for all other Level 3 financial instruments is based on the assumptions used in our internal valuation models.

__________(1)Weighted averages are calculated by using the product of the input multiplied by the relative fair value of the instruments.
(2)Due to the nature of the various mortgage securitization structures in which we have retained interests, it is not meaningful to present a consolidated weighted average for the significant unobservable inputs.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
We are required to measure and recognize certain assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis on the consolidated balance sheets. These assets are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (for example, from the application of lower of cost or fair value accounting or when we evaluate for impairment).
The following table presents the carrying value of the assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and still held as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, and for which a nonrecurring fair value measurement was recorded during the three and twelve months then ended.

In the above table, loans held for investment are generally valued based in part on the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral and the non-recoverable rate, which is considered to be a significant unobservable input. The non-recoverable rate ranged from 0% to 63%, with a weighted average of 40%, and from 0% to 62%, with a weighted average of 22%, as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The weighted average non-recoverable rate is calculated based on the estimated market value of the underlying collateral. The significant unobservable inputs and related quantitative information related to fair value of the other assets are not meaningful to disclose as they vary significantly across properties and collateral.
The following table presents total nonrecurring fair value measurements for the period, included in earnings, attributable to the change in fair value relating to assets that are still held at March 31, 2026 and 2025.

NOTE 13—BUSINESS SEGMENTS AND REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS |
Our principal operations are organized into three major business segments, which are defined primarily based on the products and services provided or the types of customers served: Credit Card, Consumer Banking and Commercial Banking. The operations of acquired businesses have been integrated into or managed as a part of our existing business segments. Certain activities that are not part of a business segment are included in the Other category, such as the management of our corporate investment portfolio and asset/liability positions performed by our centralized Corporate Treasury group and any residual tax expense or benefit beyond what is assessed to our business segments in order to arrive at the consolidated effective tax rate. The Other category also includes unallocated corporate expenses that do not directly support the operations of the business segments or for which the business segments are not considered financially accountable in evaluating their performance, such as certain restructuring charges and Discover integration expenses.
•Credit Card: Consists of our domestic consumer card lending, personal loans, domestic small business card lending and international card businesses in the U.K. and Canada.
•Consumer Banking: Consists of our deposit gathering and lending activities for consumers and small businesses, national auto lending and services offered by the Global Payment Network.
•Commercial Banking: Consists of our lending, deposit gathering, capital markets and treasury management services to commercial real estate and commercial and industrial customers. Our customers typically include companies with annual revenues between $20 million and $2 billion.
Basis of Presentation
We report the results of each of our business segments on a continuing operations basis. The results of our individual businesses reflect the manner in which management evaluates performance and makes decisions about funding our operations and allocating resources. The Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) for each of our segments is the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”). The CODM uses the segments’ income (loss) from continuing operations after tax to assess segment performance and decide how to allocate resources.
Business Segment Reporting Methodology
The results of our business segments are intended to present each segment as if it were a stand-alone business. Our internal management and reporting process used to derive our segment results employs various allocation methodologies, including funds transfer pricing, to assign certain balance sheet assets, deposits and other liabilities and their related revenues and expenses directly or indirectly attributable to each business. Marketing expenses are included within non-interest expense and can be directly incurred by a business segment or indirectly incurred and allocated. Total marketing expense was $1.5 billion and $1.2 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Credit Card marketing expense was $1.3 billion and $1.0 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Our funds transfer pricing process managed by our centralized Corporate Treasury group provides a funds credit for sources of funds, such as deposits generated by our Consumer Banking and Commercial Banking businesses, and a charge for the use of funds by each business. The allocation is unique to each business and is based on the composition of assets and liabilities. The funds transfer pricing process considers the interest rate and liquidity risk characteristics of assets and liabilities and off-balance sheet products. Periodically the methodology and assumptions utilized in the funds transfer pricing process are adjusted to reflect economic conditions and other factors, which may impact the allocation of net interest income to the businesses. Due to the integrated nature of our business segments, estimates and judgments have been made in allocating certain revenue and expense items. Transactions between segments are based on specific criteria or approximate market rates. We regularly assess the assumptions, methodologies and reporting classifications used for segment reporting, which may result in the implementation of refinements or changes in future periods. We provide additional information on the allocation methodologies used to derive our business segment results in “Part II—Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Note 18—Business Segments and Revenue from Contracts with Customers” in our 2025 Form 10-K.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers
The majority of our revenue from contracts with customers consists of discount and interchange fees net of customer reward expenses, service charges and other customer-related fees and other contract revenue. Discount and interchange fees are primarily from our Credit Card business and Consumer Banking business, inclusive of the Global Payment Network. Service charges and other customer-related fees within our Consumer Banking business are primarily related to fees earned on transaction processing services on the PULSE Network, consumer deposit accounts for account maintenance and various transaction-based services such as automated teller machine (“ATM”) usage, as well as various participation and membership fees.
Service charges and other customer-related fees within our Commercial Banking business are mostly related to fees earned on capital markets services and treasury management. Other contract revenue in our Credit Card business consists primarily of revenue from our merchant relationships. Other contract revenue in our Consumer Banking business consists primarily of revenue earned from services provided to auto industry participants. Revenue from contracts with customers is included in non-interest income in our consolidated statements of income.
The following table presents revenue from contracts with customers and a reconciliation to non-interest income by business segment for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

NOTE 14—COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES, GUARANTEES AND OTHERS |
Commitments to Lend
Our unfunded lending commitments primarily consist of credit card lines, loan commitments to customers of our Credit Card, Commercial Banking and Consumer Banking businesses, as well as standby and commercial letters of credit. These commitments, other than credit card lines and certain other unconditionally cancellable lines of credit, are legally binding conditional agreements that have fixed expirations or termination dates and specified interest rates and purposes. The contractual amount of these commitments represents the maximum possible credit risk to us should the counterparty draw upon the commitment. We generally manage the potential risk of unfunded lending commitments by limiting the total amount of arrangements, monitoring the size and maturity structure of these portfolios and applying the same credit standards for all of our credit activities.
For unused credit card lines, we have not experienced and do not anticipate that all of our customers will access their entire available line at any given point in time. Commitments to extend credit other than credit card lines generally require customers to maintain certain credit standards. Collateral requirements and loan-to-value ratios are the same as those for funded transactions and are established based on management’s credit assessment of the customer. These commitments may expire without being drawn upon; therefore, the total commitment amount does not necessarily represent future funding requirements.
We also issue letters of credit, such as financial standby, performance standby and commercial letters of credit, to meet the financing needs of our customers. Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by us to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party in a borrowing arrangement. Commercial letters of credit are short-term commitments issued primarily to facilitate trade finance activities for customers and are generally collateralized by the goods being shipped to the customer. These collateral requirements are similar to those for funded transactions and are established based on management’s credit assessment of the customer. Management conducts regular reviews of all outstanding letters of credit and the results of these reviews are considered in assessing the adequacy of reserves for unfunded lending commitments.
The following table presents the contractual amount and carrying value of our unfunded lending commitments as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The carrying value represents our reserve and deferred revenue on legally binding commitments.

(2)These financial guarantees have expiration dates that range from 2026 to 2030 as of March 31, 2026.
Loss Sharing Agreements
Within our Commercial Banking business, we originate multifamily commercial real estate loans with the intent to sell them to the GSEs. We enter into loss sharing agreements with the GSEs upon the sale of these originated loans. Beginning January 1, 2020, we elected the fair value option on new loss sharing agreements entered into. Unrealized gains and losses are recorded in other non-interest income in our consolidated statements of income. For those loss sharing agreements entered into as of and prior to December 31, 2019, we amortize the liability recorded at inception into non-interest income as we are released from risk of having to make a payment and record our estimate of expected credit losses each period through the provision for credit losses in our consolidated statements of income. The liability recognized on our consolidated balance sheets for these loss sharing agreements was $132 million and $150 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. See “Note 5—Allowance for Credit Losses and Reserve for Unfunded Lending Commitments” for information related to our credit card partnership loss sharing arrangements.

Global Payment Network Counterparty Settlement Obligations
The Company has entered into contractual relationships with certain international merchants, international ATM acquirers and international payment networks pursuant to which they have exposure arising from failures of third parties to perform their financial payment or settlement obligations.
The maximum potential amount of future payments related to such contingent obligations is dependent upon the transaction volume processed between the time a potential counterparty defaults on its financial payment or settlement obligations and the time at which the Company disables the settlement of any further transactions for the defaulting party. The Company has certain contractual remedies to offset these counterparty settlement exposures. Losses related to counterparty settlement failures were not material for the three months ended March 31, 2026. The Company did not record a contingent liability for this exposure in the consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2026.
Discover Network Merchant Chargeback Obligations
The Company operates the Discover Network, issues payment cards and permits third parties to issue payment cards. The Company is contingently liable for certain transactions processed on the Discover Network in the event of a dispute between the cardholder and a merchant. The contingent liability arises if the disputed transaction involves a merchant or merchant acquirer with whom the Discover Network has a direct relationship. If a dispute is resolved in the cardholder’s favor, the Discover Network will credit or refund the disputed amount to the Discover Network card issuer, who in turn is responsible for crediting its cardholder’s account. The Discover Network will then charge back the disputed amount of the payment card transaction to the merchant or merchant acquirer, where permitted by the applicable agreement, to seek recovery of amounts already paid to the merchant for the payment card transaction. If the Discover Network is unable to collect the amount subject to dispute from the merchant or merchant acquirer, the Discover Network will bear the loss for the amount credited or refunded to the cardholder.
The maximum potential amount of obligations of the Discover Network arising from such contingent obligations is estimated to be the portion of the total Discover Network transaction volume processed to date for which timely and valid disputes may be raised under applicable law and relevant issuer and customer agreements. Losses related to merchant chargebacks were not material for the three months ended March 31, 2026. The Company did not record a contingent liability for this exposure in the consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2026.
Discover-Related Consent Orders
Prior to the closing of the Transaction, Discover and Discover Bank and their respective subsidiaries were parties to certain enforcement actions. As a result of the Transaction, Capital One and CONA now have certain going-forward obligations with regard to these matters.
In December 2020, Discover entered into a consent order with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (“CFPB”) related to certain private student loan servicing practices (the “CFPB Order”). As part of the CFPB Order, Discover implemented a redress and compliance plan and paid a civil monetary penalty. Although Discover sold its student loan portfolio and ceased servicing student loans prior to the closing of the Transaction, the CFPB Order by its terms remains in effect until December 2030 for issues that occurred prior to the sale and transfer of servicing for the student loan portfolio.
On July 19, 2023, Discover disclosed that it had incorrectly classified certain credit cards into its highest merchant and merchant acquirer pricing tier (the “Card Product Misclassification”). On April 18, 2025, Discover and DFS Services LLC entered into a consent order with the Federal Reserve (the “Federal Reserve Order”) in connection with the Card Product Misclassification relating to, among other things, board governance, risk management and internal controls and requiring a civil money penalty, which was paid prior to the closing of the Transaction. Capital One and CONA have committed to satisfy the obligations of the Federal Reserve Order.
Litigation
In accordance with the current accounting standards for loss contingencies, we establish reserves for legal and regulatory related matters that arise from the ordinary course of our business activities when it is probable that a loss associated with a claim or proceeding has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Except as discussed below, litigation and regulatory matters were not considered to be material. Litigation claims and proceedings of all types are subject to
| | | | | | | | |
|
| 133 | Capital One Financial Corporation (COF) |
many uncertain factors that generally cannot be predicted with assurance.
We are defendants or respondents in a number of evolving legal and regulatory matters. For certain matters, we are able to estimate reasonably possible losses above existing reserves, and for other matters, such an estimate is not possible at this time. Management estimates that reasonably possible future losses above our reserves for legal and regulatory matters as of March 31, 2026 are up to approximately $300 million. Our reserve and reasonably possible loss estimates involve considerable judgment and reflect that there is significant uncertainty regarding numerous factors that may impact the ultimate loss levels. Notwithstanding our attempt to estimate a reasonably possible range of loss beyond our current accrual levels for some legal and regulatory matters based on current information, it is possible that actual future losses will exceed both the current accrual level and reasonably possible losses disclosed here. Given the inherent uncertainties involved in these matters and the very large or indeterminate damages sought in some of these, there is significant uncertainty as to the ultimate liability we may incur from these legal and regulatory matters and an adverse outcome in one or more of these matters could be material to our results of operations or cash flows for any particular reporting period.
Below we provide a description of potentially material legal and regulatory proceedings and claims.
Discover Card Product Misclassification
Discover and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a settlement agreement to resolve putative class actions filed on behalf of merchants allegedly affected by the Card Product Misclassification. The court granted preliminary approval of the settlement on July 30, 2025. Discover reserved $1.2 billion related to this matter and the class action settlement will be the primary means through which restitution will be paid to adversely affected merchants, merchant acquirers and other intermediaries.
Discover was also named as a defendant in a putative class action on behalf of shareholders alleging securities and other claims based on the Card Product Misclassification, among other subjects. On March 31, 2025, the court dismissed the putative shareholder class action without prejudice. On March 13, 2026, the court granted the plaintiff’s request to file an amended complaint. Discover was also subject to an SEC investigation into the Card Product Misclassification matter. We are cooperating with the investigation.
Interchange Litigation
In 2005, a putative class of retail merchants filed antitrust lawsuits against Mastercard and Visa and several issuing banks, including Capital One, seeking both injunctive relief and monetary damages for an alleged conspiracy by defendants to fix the level of interchange fees.
Visa and Mastercard reached a settlement with the injunctive relief class and filed a motion for preliminary approval, which was denied by the District Court in June 2024. Visa and Mastercard reached a new settlement with the injunctive relief class and filed a motion for preliminary approval with the District Court in November 2025.
Savings Account Litigation and Related Attorney General Litigation
On July 10, 2023, we were sued in a putative class action in the Eastern District of Virginia by savings account holders alleging breach of contract and a variety of other causes of action relating to our introduction of a new savings account product with a higher interest rate than existing savings account products (“Savings Account Litigation”).
On May 14, 2025, the New York Attorney General sued Capital One in the Southern District of New York alleging a variety of causes of action under New York and federal law based on factual allegations similar to those raised in the Savings Account Litigation pending in the Eastern District of Virginia (“New York Attorney General Litigation”). On August 7, 2025, the New York Attorney General Litigation was transferred to the Eastern District of Virginia and Capital One filed a motion to dismiss on August 29, 2025.
The parties in the Savings Account Litigation reached an agreement to settle the case and the court granted preliminary approval of the settlement. In September 2025, the New York Attorney General, on behalf of itself and 17 other state attorneys general, filed an amicus brief opposing the class action settlement in the Savings Account Litigation and in November 2025, the court denied final approval of the settlement. In December 2025, the parties reached a new settlement that includes a $425 million settlement fund, which is reflected in our reserves, and an agreement to increase the interest rate on 360 Savings accounts to match the interest paid on 360 Performance Savings accounts. The new settlement also resolves the New York
| | | | | | | | |
|
| 134 | Capital One Financial Corporation (COF) |
Attorney General Litigation as well as the objection filed by the New York Attorney General on behalf of itself and 17 other state attorneys general. On April 20, 2026, the court granted final approval of the settlement.
Fair Access to Banking
Capital One is responding to demands and requests from various federal agencies regarding “fair access to banking,” including those resulting from Executive Order 14331 “Guaranteeing Fair Banking for All Americans,” which directed government agencies to review financial institutions’ policies and practices for providing, maintaining, or discontinuing financial products or services to certain clients or potential clients, and a civil lawsuit filed by the Donald J. Trump Revocable Trust and several affiliated corporate entities against Capital One, which is pending in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida.
Other Pending and Threatened Litigation
In addition, we are commonly subject to various pending and threatened legal actions relating to the conduct of our normal business activities. In the opinion of management, the ultimate aggregate liability, if any, arising out of all such other pending or threatened legal actions is not expected to be material to our consolidated financial position or our results of operations.
Deposit Insurance Assessments
On November 16, 2023, the FDIC finalized a rule to implement a special assessment to recover the loss to the Deposit Insurance Fund arising from the protection of uninsured depositors in connection with the systemic risk determination announced on March 12, 2023, following the closures of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank.
On July 8, 2025, the FDIC invoiced CONA for additional special assessment fees and interest and asserted that CONA underreported its estimated uninsured deposits on the Consolidated Reports of Condition and Income (FFIEC 031) as of December 31, 2022 (“2022 Call Report”). CONA disagrees with the FDIC’s special assessment calculation. On September 10, 2025, CONA filed suit against the FDIC in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia seeking a declaratory judgment that CONA does not owe the disputed portion of the FDIC’s special assessment. On November 17, 2025, the FDIC filed a counterclaim seeking payment of the disputed amount. While we cannot predict the outcome of this dispute with the FDIC, we estimate that the amount of reasonably possible additional special assessment fees is approximately $150 million, based on the FDIC’s December 2025 interim final rule and other factors. CONA has deposited collateral satisfactory to the FDIC related to the disputed additional assessment amounts that have been invoiced to date. The deposited collateral will remain in custody with a third-party bank pending resolution of the dispute.
Finally, the ultimate amount of expenses associated with the special assessment will also be impacted by the finalization of the losses incurred by the FDIC in the resolutions of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Overview
We are required under applicable laws and regulations to maintain controls and procedures, which include disclosure controls and procedures as well as internal control over financial reporting, as further described below.
(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures refer to controls and other procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our financial reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our CEO and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding our required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, we recognize that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and we must apply judgment in evaluating and implementing possible controls and procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”), our management, including the CEO and CFO, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of March 31, 2026, the end of the period covered by this Report. Based upon that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2026, at a reasonable level of assurance, in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting information required to be disclosed within the time periods specified by the SEC rules and forms.
(b) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
We regularly review our disclosure controls and procedures and make changes intended to ensure the quality of our financial reporting. As a result of the Transaction, we are in the process of incorporating Discover into our internal control over financial reporting. See “Note 2—Business Combinations” for further information. Other than those related to the Transaction, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the first quarter of 2026 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
