Bank of New York Mellon Corp

(a) See “Supplemental information – Explanation of GAAP and Non-GAAP financial measures” beginning on page 41 for a reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP measures.

The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation total shareholders’ equity was $44.7 billion at June 30, 2026 and $44.3 billion at Dec. 31, 2025. The increase primarily reflects capital generated through earnings, partially offset by capital returned through common stock repurchases and dividends.

In April 2024, we announced a share repurchase authorization providing for the repurchase of $6.0

billion of common shares. At March 31, 2026, the maximum amount yet to be purchased under this authorization was $814 million. In April 2026, we announced a new share repurchase authorization providing for the repurchase of $10.0 billion of common shares in addition to any remaining capacity under the existing April 2024 authorization. In the first six months of 2026, we repurchased 16.3 million

BNY 33 common shares at an average price of $128.20 per common share for a total cost of $2.1 billion.

The unrealized loss (after-tax) on our available-for-sale securities portfolio, net of hedges, included in accumulated other comprehensive income was $532 million at June 30, 2026, compared with $241 million at Dec. 31, 2025. The increase in the net unrealized loss, including the impact of hedges, primarily reflects the impact of higher interest rates.

In June 2026, the Parent redeemed all outstanding shares of its Series H preferred stock.

In March 2026, the Parent issued 500,000 depositary shares, each representing a 1/100th interest in a share of the Parent’s Series M Noncumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock. Holders of the Series M preferred stock are entitled to receive dividends, if declared by the Parent’s Board of Directors, on March 20, June 20, September 20 and December 20 of each year, commencing June 20, 2026. See Note 10 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the Parent’s preferred stock.

In July 2026, the Parent issued 500,000 depositary shares, each representing a 1/100th interest in a share of the Parent’s Series N Noncumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock. Holders of the Series N preferred stock are entitled to receive dividends, if declared by the Parent’s Board of Directors, on March 20, June 20, September 20 and December 20 of each year, commencing Dec. 20, 2026.

Capital adequacy

Regulators establish certain levels of capital for bank holding companies (“BHCs”) and banks, including BNY and our bank subsidiaries, in accordance with established quantitative measurements. For the Parent to maintain its status as a financial holding company, our U.S. bank subsidiaries and BNY must, among other things, qualify as “well capitalized.” As of June 30, 2026 and Dec. 31, 2025, BNY and our U.S. bank subsidiaries were “well capitalized.”

Failure to satisfy regulatory standards, including “well capitalized” status or capital adequacy rules more generally, could result in limitations on our activities and adversely affect our financial condition. See the discussion of these matters in “Supervision and Regulation – Regulated Entities of BNY and Ancillary Regulatory Requirements” and “Risk Factors – Capital and Liquidity Risk – Failure to satisfy regulatory standards, including “well capitalized” and “well managed” status or capital adequacy and liquidity rules more generally, could result in limitations on our activities and adversely affect our business and financial condition,” both of which are in our 2025 Annual Report.

The U.S. banking agencies’ capital rules are based on the framework adopted by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (“BCBS”), as amended from time to time. For additional information on these capital requirements, see “Supervision and Regulation” in our 2025 Annual Report.

34 BNY

The table below presents our consolidated and largest bank subsidiary regulatory capital ratios.

(a) Minimum requirements for June 30, 2026 include minimum thresholds plus currently applicable buffers. The U.S. global systemically important banks (“G-SIB”) surcharge of 1.5% is subject to change. The countercyclical capital buffer is currently set to 0%. The stress capital buffer (“SCB”) requirement is 2.5%, equal to the regulatory minimum for Standardized Approach capital ratios.

(b) For our CET1, Tier 1 capital and Total capital ratios, our effective capital ratios under U.S. capital rules are the lower of the ratios as calculated under the Standardized and Advanced Approaches. The Tier 1 leverage ratio is based on Tier 1 capital and quarterly average total assets.

(c) The Federal Reserve’s regulations do not establish well capitalized thresholds for these measures for BHCs.

(d) The SLR is based on Tier 1 capital and total leverage exposure, which includes certain off-balance sheet exposures. On April 1, 2026, BNY and our insured depository institution subsidiaries adopted the enhanced supplementary leverage ratio final rule.

(e) The Bank of New York Mellon’s effective capital ratios under the U.S. capital rules are the lower of the ratios as calculated under the Standardized and Advanced Approaches, which for the periods presented was the Standardized Approach.

Our CET1 ratio under the Standardized Approach was 11.0% at June 30, 2026 and 11.9% at Dec. 31, 2025. The decrease primarily reflects capital returned through common stock repurchases and dividends and higher RWAs, partially offset by capital generated through earnings.

The Tier 1 leverage ratio was 5.9% at June 30, 2026 and 6.0% at Dec. 31, 2025. The decrease primarily reflects higher average assets.

Risk-based capital ratios vary depending on the size of the balance sheet at period end and the levels and types of investments in assets, and leverage ratios vary based on the average size of the balance sheet over the quarter. The balance sheet size fluctuates from period to period based on levels of customer and market activity. In general, when servicing clients are more actively trading securities, deposit balances and the balance sheet as a whole are higher. In

addition, when markets experience significant volatility or stress, our balance sheet size may increase considerably as client deposit levels increase.

Our capital ratios are necessarily subject to, among other things, anticipated compliance with all necessary enhancements to model calibration, approval by regulators of certain models used as part of RWA calculations, other refinements, further implementation guidance from regulators, market practices and standards and any changes BNY may make to its businesses. As a consequence of these factors, our capital ratios may materially change and may be volatile over time and from period to period.

Under the Advanced Approaches, our operational loss risk model is informed by external losses, including fines and penalties levied against institutions in the financial services industry, particularly those that relate to businesses in which we operate, and as a

BNY 35 result, external losses have impacted and could in the future impact the amount of capital that we are required to hold.

The following table presents our capital components and RWAs, the average assets used for leverage capital purposes and leverage exposure used for SLR purposes.

(a) Reduced by deferred tax liabilities associated with intangible assets and tax-deductible goodwill.

The table below presents the factors that impacted CET1 capital.

(a) Includes dividend equivalents on share-based awards.

(b) Primarily related to stock awards and stock issued for employee benefit plans.

The following table shows the impact on the consolidated capital ratios at June 30, 2026 of a $100 million increase or decrease in common equity, or a $1 billion increase or decrease in RWAs, quarterly average assets or total leverage exposure.

36 BNY

Stress capital buffer

In August 2025, the Federal Reserve announced that BNY’s SCB requirement would remain at 2.5%, equal to the regulatory floor, effective on Oct. 1, 2025, under the current capital plan rule. In February 2026, the Federal Reserve indicated that BNY’s SCB requirement of 2.5% would be effective through Sept. 30, 2027. See “Supervision and Regulation” in our 2025 Annual Report for additional information.

Total Loss-Absorbing Capacity (“TLAC”)

The following summarizes the minimum requirements for BNY’s external TLAC and external long-term debt (“LTD”) ratios, plus currently applicable buffers.

(a) RWA is the greater of Standardized Approach and Advanced Approaches.

(b) Buffer to be met using only CET1.

(c) Buffer to be met using only Tier 1 capital.

External TLAC consists of the Parent’s Tier 1 capital and eligible unsecured LTD issued by it that has a remaining term to maturity of at least one year and satisfies certain other conditions. Eligible LTD consists of the unpaid principal balance of eligible unsecured debt securities, subject to haircuts for amounts due to be paid within two years, that satisfy certain other conditions. Debt issued prior to Dec. 31, 2016, has been permanently grandfathered to the extent these instruments otherwise would be ineligible only due to containing impermissible acceleration rights or being governed by foreign law.

The following table presents our external TLAC and external LTD ratios.

If BNY maintains risk-based ratio or leverage TLAC measures above the minimum required level, but with a risk-based ratio or leverage below the minimum level with buffers, we will face constraints on dividends, equity repurchases and discretionary executive compensation based on the amount of the shortfall and eligible retained income.
