The net interest margin improved to 3.24%, up from 2.68% a year earlier, driven by strong loan growth and rising interest rates.

SALT LAKE CITY--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Zions Bancorporation, N.A. (NASDAQ: ZION) ("Zions" or "the Bank") today reported net earnings applicable to common shareholders for the third quarter of 2022 of $211 million, or $1.40 per diluted common share, compared with net earnings applicable to common shareholders of $234 million, or $1.45 per diluted common share, for the third quarter of 2021, and net earnings applicable to common shareholders of $195 million, or $1.29 per diluted common share, for the second quarter of 2022.
Harris H. Simmons, Chairman and CEO of Zions Bancorporation, commented, “Our third quarter results continued to demonstrate the positive impact of solid loan growth and moderately higher interest rates, as our net interest margin strengthened to 3.24%, up from 2.68% a year ago, producing strong adjusted pre-provision net revenue (PPNR) growth and positive operating leverage.”
Mr. Simmons continued, “Strong PPNR growth was offset by a higher provision for credit losses. Despite material improvements in most of our credit quality metrics relative to both last quarter and last year, we boosted our loan loss reserve to reflect both loan growth and a heightened probability of economic recession in the coming year.”
