Capital
The Company’s Board of Directors approved an increase in the Company’s authority to repurchase common stock by an additional 500 million shares, bringing the total authorized amount to 667 million common shares
Fourth quarter 2020 results included:
$(781) million, or ($0.14) per share, impact of restructuring charges
$757 million, or $0.14 per share, reserve release due to the announced sale of our student loan portfolio
$(321) million, or ($0.06) per share, impact of customer remediation accruals
Chief Executive Officer Charlie Scharf commented on the quarter, “Although our financial performance improved and we earned $3.0 billion in the fourth quarter, our results continued to be impacted by the unprecedented operating environment and the required work to put our substantial legacy issues behind us.”

“Our agenda is clear and we are making progress. We have prioritized and are moving forward on our risk and control buildout – the recently terminated BSA/AML consent order is just one of many, but it is an important step forward; we have a new management team in place; the disciplines we use to manage the company are completely different than one year ago; we have clarified our strategic priorities and are exiting certain non-strategic businesses; and we have identified and are implementing a series of actions to improve our financial performance,” Scharf added.

“With a more consistent broad-based recovery and as we continue to press forward with our agenda, we expect you will see that this franchise is capable of much more” Scharf concluded.
1 Represents the lower of our Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) ratio calculated under the Standardized Approach and under the Advanced Approach. See tables on pages 25-26 of the 4Q20 Quarterly Supplement for more information on CET1. CET1 is a preliminary estimate.
2 Return on equity (ROE) represents Wells Fargo net income (loss) applicable to common stock divided by average common stockholders’ equity.
3 Tangible common equity and return on average tangible common equity (ROTCE) are non-GAAP financial measures. For additional information, including a corresponding reconciliation to GAAP financial measures, see the “Tangible Common Equity” tables on pages 23-24 of the 4Q20 Quarterly Supplement.

(a)Tangible common equity and return on average tangible common equity are non-GAAP financial measures. For additional information, including a corresponding reconciliation to GAAP financial measures, see the “Tangible Common Equity” tables on pages 23-24 of the 4Q20 Quarterly Supplement.
(b)The efficiency ratio is noninterest expense divided by total revenue (net interest income and noninterest income).
Fourth Quarter 2020 vs. Fourth Quarter 2019
Net interest income decreased 17%, primarily due to the impact of lower interest rates, which drove a repricing of the balance sheet, lower loan balances primarily due to weak demand and elevated prepayments, lower investment securities balances, and higher mortgage-backed securities premium amortization
Noninterest income was slightly down. Higher mortgage banking fees and gains in our affiliated venture capital and private equity partnerships were more than offset by the gain on the sale of our commercial real estate brokerage business in fourth quarter 2019, as well as lower deposit-related fees and net gains from trading activities
Noninterest expense decreased 5%, predominantly due to lower operating losses. Fourth quarter 2020 operating losses included $321 million of customer remediation accruals, while fourth quarter 2019 included $1.5 billion of litigation accruals. Additionally, travel expense and advertising expense declined as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, while professional and outside services expense declined primarily due to efficiency initiatives. These decreases were partially offset by $781 million of restructuring charges
Provision for credit losses decreased $823 million, predominantly due to a $757 million reserve release due to the announced sale of our student loan portfolio, as well as lower net charge-offs

Fourth Quarter 2020 vs. Third Quarter 2020
Net loan charge-offs as a percentage of average loans was 0.26% (annualized) for both commercial and consumer loans. Both portfolios saw declines in losses and net charge-off rates. Commercial net loan charge-offs were impacted by a small number of credit exposures in the commercial real estate portfolio. Consumer losses decreased as the impacts of government stimulus programs and customer accommodations, including payment deferrals, continued to impact performance
Nonperforming assets increased 9%. Nonaccrual loans increased $706 million predominantly due to increases in the commercial real estate, residential mortgage, and lease financing portfolios, partially offset by a decrease in the commercial and industrial portfolio
Allowance for credit losses for loans decreased $758 million predominantly due to the announced sale of our student loan portfolio

Business Segment Performance
We reorganized our management reporting into four reportable operating segments: Consumer Banking and Lending; Commercial Banking; Corporate and Investment Banking; and Wealth and Investment Management. All other business activities that are not included in the reportable operating segments have been included in Corporate. We define our operating segments by type of product and customer segment, and their results are based on our management reporting process. The management reporting process measures the performance of the operating segments based on the Company’s management structure, and the results are regularly reviewed by our Chief Executive Officer and Operating Committee. Prior period operating segment results have been revised to reflect this reorganization. The reorganization did not impact the previously reported consolidated financial results of the Company.

Consumer Banking and Lending offers diversified financial products and services for consumers and small businesses with annual sales generally up to $5 million. These financial products and services include checking and savings accounts, credit and debit cards, as well as home, auto, personal, and small business lending.

Commercial Real Estate was up 12% primarily driven by our low income housing business, which in fourth quarter 2019 included lower revenue due to the timing of expected tax benefit recognition
Markets was down 13% primarily due to lower Credit Adjustment revenue driven by wider credit spreads and lower Equities revenue primarily driven by lower equity derivatives trading and lower equity financing revenue
Provision for credit losses increased $109 million primarily driven by higher losses in the commercial real estate portfolio

Fourth Quarter 2020 vs. Fourth Quarter 2019
Revenue decreased 4%, predominantly driven by lower net interest income as a result of lower interest rates. Noninterest income was flat as higher asset-based fees were offset by lower deferred compensation plan investment results (largely offset by lower deferred compensation plan expense)
In second quarter 2020, we entered into arrangements to transition our economic hedges of our deferred compensation plan liabilities from equity securities to derivative instruments. As a result of this transition, changes in the fair value of derivatives used to economically hedge the deferred compensation plan are reported in personnel expense along with deferred compensation plan expense and, therefore, revenue will no longer be impacted by changes in deferred compensation valuations
Noninterest expense decreased 17%, primarily due to lower operating losses and lower deferred compensation plan expense. Additionally, fourth quarter 2019 included $158 million of software impairment expense
Total client assets increased 6% to a record $2.0 trillion primarily driven by higher market valuations

Noninterest income increased 22% driven by higher net gains on equity and debt securities. This increase was partially offset by a $362 million gain on the sale of our commercial real estate brokerage business in fourth quarter 2019
Noninterest expense increased predominantly due to $781 million of restructuring charges
Provision for credit losses decreased $834 million predominantly due to the announced sale of our student loan portfolio

Forward-Looking Statements
This document contains forward-looking statements. In addition, we may make forward-looking statements in our other documents filed or furnished with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and our management may make forward-looking statements orally to analysts, investors, representatives of the media and others. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “seeks,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “target,” “projects,” “outlook,” “forecast,” “will,” “may,” “could,” “should,” “can” and similar references to future periods. In particular, forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements we make about: (i) the future operating or financial performance of the Company, including our outlook for future growth; (ii) our noninterest expense and efficiency ratio; (iii) future credit quality and performance, including our expectations regarding future loan losses, our allowance for credit losses, and the economic scenarios considered to develop the allowance; (iv) our expectations regarding net interest income and net interest margin; (v) loan growth or the reduction or mitigation of risk in our loan portfolios; (vi) future capital or liquidity levels, ratios or targets; (vii) the performance of our mortgage business and any related exposures; (viii) the expected outcome and impact of legal, regulatory and legislative developments, as well as our expectations regarding compliance therewith; (ix) future common stock dividends, common share repurchases and other uses of capital; (x) our targeted range for return on assets, return on equity, and return on tangible common equity; (xi) expectations regarding our effective income tax rate; (xii) the outcome of contingencies, such as legal proceedings; and (xiii) the Company’s plans, objectives and strategies.
Forward-looking statements are not based on historical facts but instead represent our current expectations and assumptions regarding our business, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Our actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. We caution you, therefore, against relying on any of these forward-looking statements. They are neither statements of historical fact nor guarantees or assurances of future performance. While there is no assurance that any list of risks and uncertainties or risk factors is complete, important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include the following, without limitation: 
current and future economic and market conditions, including the effects of declines in housing prices, high unemployment rates, U.S. fiscal debt, budget and tax matters, geopolitical matters, and any slowdown in global economic growth;
the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic, including on our credit quality and business operations, as well as its impact on general economic and financial market conditions;
our capital and liquidity requirements (including under regulatory capital standards, such as the Basel III capital standards) and our ability to generate capital internally or raise capital on favorable terms;
financial services reform and other current, pending or future legislation or regulation that could have a negative effect on our revenue and businesses, including the Dodd-Frank Act and other legislation and regulation relating to bank products and services;
developments in our mortgage banking business, including the extent of the success of our mortgage loan modification efforts, the amount of mortgage loan repurchase demands that we receive, any negative effects relating to our mortgage servicing, loan modification or foreclosure practices, and the effects of regulatory or judicial requirements or guidance impacting our mortgage banking business and any changes in industry standards;
our ability to realize any efficiency ratio or expense target as part of our expense management initiatives, including as a result of business and economic cyclicality, seasonality, changes in our business composition and operating environment, growth in our businesses and/or acquisitions, and unexpected expenses relating to, among other things, litigation and regulatory matters;
the effect of the current interest rate environment or changes in interest rates or in the level or composition of our assets or liabilities on our net interest income, net interest margin and our mortgage originations, mortgage servicing rights and mortgage loans held for sale;
significant turbulence or a disruption in the capital or financial markets, which could result in, among other things, reduced investor demand for mortgage loans, a reduction in the availability of funding or increased funding costs, and declines in asset values and/or recognition of impairments of securities held in our debt securities and equity securities portfolios;
the effect of a fall in stock market prices on our investment banking business and our fee income from our brokerage, asset and wealth management businesses;
negative effects from the retail banking sales practices matter and from other instances where customers may have experienced financial harm, including on our legal, operational and compliance costs, our ability to engage in
-9-


certain business activities or offer certain products or services, our ability to keep and attract customers, our ability to attract and retain qualified employees, and our reputation;
resolution of regulatory matters, litigation, or other legal actions, which may result in, among other things, additional costs, fines, penalties, restrictions on our business activities, reputational harm, or other adverse consequences;
a failure in or breach of our operational or security systems or infrastructure, or those of our third-party vendors or other service providers, including as a result of cyber attacks;
the effect of changes in the level of checking or savings account deposits on our funding costs and net interest margin;
fiscal and monetary policies of the Federal Reserve Board;
changes to U.S. tax guidance and regulations, as well as the effect of discrete items on our effective income tax rate;
our ability to develop and execute effective business plans and strategies; and
the other risk factors and uncertainties described under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2020.
In addition to the above factors, we also caution that the amount and timing of any future common stock dividends or repurchases will depend on the earnings, cash requirements and financial condition of the Company, market conditions, capital requirements (including under Basel capital standards), common stock issuance requirements, applicable law and regulations (including federal securities laws and federal banking regulations), and other factors deemed relevant by the Company’s Board of Directors, and may be subject to regulatory approval or conditions.
For more information about factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations, refer to our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the discussion under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and available on its website at www.sec.gov5.
Any forward-looking statement made by us speaks only as of the date on which it is made. Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required by law.

Forward-looking Non-GAAP Financial Measures. From time to time management may discuss forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures, such as forward-looking estimates or targets for return on average tangible common equity. We are unable to provide a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures because we are unable to provide, without unreasonable effort, a meaningful or accurate calculation or estimation of amounts that would be necessary for the reconciliation due to the complexity and inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying future amounts or when they may occur. Such unavailable information could be significant to future results.

(1)Pre-tax pre-provision profit (PTPP) is total revenue less total noninterest expense. Management believes that PTPP is a useful financial measure because it enables investors and others to assess the Company’s ability to generate capital to cover credit losses through a credit cycle.
(2)For second quarter 2020, diluted average common shares outstanding equaled average common shares outstanding because our securities convertible into common shares had an anti-dilutive effect.
(3)Book value per common share is common stockholders' equity divided by common shares outstanding. Tangible book value per common share is tangible common equity divided by common shares outstanding.
(4)Tangible common equity, tangible book value per common share, and return on average tangible common equity are non-GAAP financial measures. For additional information, including a corresponding reconciliation to GAAP financial measures, see the “Tangible Common Equity” tables on pages 23 and 24.
(5)Represents Wells Fargo net income (loss) divided by average assets.
(6)Represents Wells Fargo net income (loss) applicable to common stock divided by average common stockholders’ equity.
(7)The efficiency ratio is total noninterest expense divided by total revenue (net interest income and noninterest income).

Beginning January 1, 2018, the requirements for calculating CET1 and tier 1 capital, along with RWAs became fully phased-in. Accordingly, the information presented reflects fully phased-in CET1, tier 1 capital, and RWAs, but reflects total capital still in accordance with Transition Requirements.
(3)Amount for December 31, 2019, has been revised as a result of a decrease in RWAs under the Advanced Approach due to the correction of duplicated operational loss amounts.

(1)The management reporting process is based on U.S. GAAP with specific adjustments, such as for funds transfer pricing for asset/liability management, for shared revenues and expenses, and tax-equivalent adjustments to consistently reflect income from taxable and tax-exempt sources. We define our operating segments by product type and customer segment.
(2)All other business activities that are not included in the reportable operating segments have been included in Corporate. Corporate includes corporate treasury and staff functions, net of allocations (including funds transfer pricing, capital, liquidity and certain expenses), in support of the reportable operating segments, as well as our investment portfolio and affiliated venture capital and private equity partnerships. Corporate also includes certain lines of business that management has determined are no longer consistent with the long-term strategic goals of the Company. In addition, Corporate includes results for previously divested businesses.
(3)Taxable-equivalent adjustments related to tax-exempt income on certain loans and debt securities are included in net interest income, while taxable-equivalent adjustments related to income tax credits for low-income housing and renewable energy investments are included in noninterest income, in each case with corresponding impacts to income tax expense (benefit). Adjustments are included in Corporate, Commercial Banking, and Corporate and Investment Banking and are eliminated to reconcile to the Company’s consolidated financial results.

(1)Amounts are not comparative due to our adoption of CECL on January 1, 2020. Prior to January 1, 2020, pools of individual PCI loans were excluded because they continued to earn interest income from the accretable yield at the pool level. With the adoption of CECL, the pools were discontinued and performance is based on contractual terms for individual loans.
(2)Residential mortgage loans predominantly insured by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) are not placed on nonaccrual status because they are insured or guaranteed.

TANGIBLE COMMON EQUITY

We also evaluate our business based on certain ratios that utilize tangible common equity. Tangible common equity is a non-GAAP financial measure and represents total equity less preferred equity, noncontrolling interests, goodwill, certain identifiable intangible assets (other than MSRs) and goodwill and other intangibles on nonmarketable equity securities, net of applicable deferred taxes. The ratios are (i) tangible book value per common share, which represents tangible common equity divided by common shares outstanding; and (ii) return on average tangible common equity (ROTCE), which represents our annualized earnings as a percentage of tangible common equity. The methodology of determining tangible common equity may differ among companies. Management believes that tangible book value per common share and return on average tangible common equity, which utilize tangible common equity, are useful financial measures because they enable management, investors, and others to assess the Company’s use of equity.

The tables below provide a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP financial measures.

(1)The Basel III capital rules for calculating CET1 and tier 1 capital, along with RWAs, are fully phased-in. However, the requirements for determining total capital are still in accordance with Transition Requirements and are scheduled to be fully phased-in by the end of 2021. The Basel III capital rules provide for two capital frameworks: the Standardized Approach and the Advanced Approach applicable to certain institutions. Accordingly, in the assessment of our capital adequacy, we must report the lower of our CET1, tier 1 and total capital ratios calculated under the Standardized Approach and under the Advanced Approach.
(2)Determined by applying the combined federal statutory rate and composite state income tax rates to the difference between book and tax basis of the respective goodwill and intangible assets at period end.
(3)In second quarter 2020, the Company elected to apply a modified transition provision issued by federal banking regulators related to the impact of CECL on regulatory capital. The rule permits certain banking organizations to exclude from regulatory capital the initial adoption impact of CECL, plus 25% of the cumulative changes in the allowance for credit losses (ACL) under CECL for each period until December 31, 2021, followed by a three-year phase-out of the benefits. The impact of the CECL transition provision on our regulatory capital at December 31, 2020, was an increase in capital of $1.7 billion, reflecting a $991 million (post-tax) increase in capital recognized upon our initial adoption of CECL, offset by 25% of the $10.8 billion increase in our ACL under CECL from January 1, 2020, through December 31, 2020.
(4)Under the Standardized Approach, the allowance for credit losses is includable in Tier 2 Capital up to 1.25% of Standardized credit RWAs with any excess allowance for credit losses deducted from total RWAs.

(1)The Basel III capital rules for calculating CET1 and tier 1 capital, along with RWAs, are fully phased-in. However, the requirements for determining total capital are still in accordance with Transition Requirements and are scheduled to be fully phased-in by the end of 2021. The Basel III capital rules provide for two capital frameworks: the Standardized Approach and the Advanced Approach applicable to certain institutions. Accordingly, in the assessment of our capital adequacy, we must report the lower of our CET1, tier 1 and total capital ratios calculated under the Standardized Approach and under the Advanced Approach.
(2)Determined by applying the combined federal statutory rate and composite state income tax rates to the difference between book and tax basis of the respective goodwill and intangible assets at period end.
(3)In second quarter 2020, the Company elected to apply a modified transition provision issued by federal banking regulators related to the impact of CECL on regulatory capital. The rule permits certain banking organizations to exclude from regulatory capital the initial adoption impact of CECL, plus 25% of the cumulative changes in the allowance for credit losses (ACL) under CECL for each period until December 31, 2021, followed by a three-year phase-out of the benefits. The impact of the CECL transition provision on our regulatory capital at December 31, 2020, was an increase in capital of $1.7 billion, reflecting a $991 million (post-tax) increase in capital recognized upon our initial adoption of CECL, offset by 25% of the $10.8 billion increase in our ACL under CECL from January 1, 2020, through December 31, 2020.
(4)Under the Advanced Approach, the allowance for credit losses that exceeds expected credit losses is eligible for inclusion in Tier 2 Capital, to the extent the excess allowance does not exceed 0.60% of Advanced credit RWAs with any excess allowance for credit losses deducted from total RWAs.
(5)Amount for December 31, 2019, has been revised as a result of a decrease in RWAs under the Advanced Approach due to the correction of duplicated operational loss amounts.

224Q20 Financial Results Tangible Common Equity We also evaluate our business based on certain ratios that utilize tangible common equity. Tangible common equity is a non-GAAP financial measure and represents total equity less preferred equity, noncontrolling interests, goodwill, certain identifiable intangible assets (other than MSRs) and goodwill and other intangibles on nonmarketable equity securities, net of applicable deferred taxes. One of these ratios is return on average ta ngible common equity (ROTCE), which represents our annualized earnings as a percentage of tangible common equity. The methodology of determining tangible common equity may differ among companies. Management believes that return on average tangible common equity, which utilizes tangible common equity, is a useful financial measure because it enables management, investors, and others to assess the Company ’s use of equity. The table below provides a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to GAAP financial measures. Quarter ended (in millions, except ratios) Dec 31, 2020 Sep 30, 2020 Jun 30, 2020 Mar 31, 2020 Dec 31, 2019 Return on average tangible common equity: Net income applicable to common stock (A) $ 2,642 1,720 (2,694) 42 2,546 Average total equity 185,748 182,850 184,108 188,170 192,393 Adjustments: Preferred stock (21,223) (21,098) (21,344) (21,794) (21,549) Additional paid-in capital on preferred stock 156 158 140 135 (71) Unearned ESOP shares 875 875 1,140 1,143 1,143 Noncontrolling interests (887) (761) (643) (785) (945) Average common stockholders’ equity (B) 164,669 162,024 163,401 166,869 170,971 Adjustments: Goodwill (26,390) (26,388) (26,384) (26,387) (26,389) Certain identifiable intangible assets (other than MSRs) (354) (378) (402) (426) (449) Goodwill and other intangibles on nonmarketable equity securities (included in other assets) (1,889) (2,045) (1,922) (2,152) (2,223) Applicable deferred taxes related to goodwill and other intangible assets (1) 852 838 828 818 807 Average tangible common equity (C) $ 136,888 134,051 135,521 138,722 142,717 Return on average common stockholders’ equity (ROE) (annualized) (A)/(B) 6.4 % 4.2 (6.6) 0.1 5.9 Return on average tangible common equity (ROTCE) (annualized) (A)/(C) 7.7 5.1 (8.0) 0.1 7.1 (1) Determined by applying the combined federal statutory rate and composite state income tax rates to the difference between book and tax basis of the respective goodwill and intangible assets at period end.

However, the requirements for determining total capital are still in accordance with Transition Requirements and are scheduled to be fully phased-in by the end of 2021. The Basel III capital rules provide for two capital frameworks: the Standardized Approach and the Advanced Approach applicable to certain institutions. Accordingly, in the assessment of our capital adequacy, we must report the lower of our CET1, tier 1 and total capital ratios calculated under the Standardized Approach and under the Advanced Approach. (2) Determined by applying the combined federal statutory rate and composite state income tax rates to the difference between book and tax basis of the respective goodwill and intangible assets at period end. (3) In second quarter 2020, the Company elected to apply a modified transition provision issued by federal banking regulators related to the impact of the current expected credit loss (CECL) accounting standard on regulatory capital. The rule permits certain banking organizations to exclude from regulatory capital the initial adoption impact of CECL, plus 25% of the cumulative changes in the allowance for credit losses (ACL) under CECL for each period until December 31, 2021, followed by a three-year phase-out of the benefits. The impact of the CECL transition provision on our regulatory capital at December 31, 2020, was an increase in capital of $1.7 billion, reflecting a $991 million (post-tax) increase in capital recognized upon our initial adoption of CECL, offset by 25% of the $10.8 billion increase in our ACL under CECL from January 1, 2020, through December 31, 2020. (4) Amount for December 31, 2019, has been revised as a result of a decrease in RWAs under the Advanced Approach due to the correction of duplicated operational loss amounts.
