Bank of America earnings beat forecasts, but shares fall

Bank of America Corp (NYSE:BAC) shares reported fourth-quarter revenue and earnings that both beat Wall Street estimates.

Chair and CEO Brian Moynihan said the year finished with a strong fourth quarter as every source of revenue increased, and growth in deposits and loans was better than the wider banking industry.

Strong capital and liquidity enabled the return of $21 billion of capital to shareholders in the year.

"We believe this broad momentum sets up 2025 very well for Bank of America," he said.

Earnings for the fourth quarter of $0.82 was more than double those from a year earlier, when two large one-off charges weighed, and also beat the $0.77 expected by analysts, per LSEG.

Revenue of $25.5 billion compared to the $25.19 billion average forecast.

BoA shares fell 1.8% on Thursday morning, along with some other US banks, as bond yields retreated from recent highs.
