10th straight qtr of strong optg. leverage, w/ improving organic

growth, and 40% PTM / 31% ROTCE well ahead of targets.

While we still see upside to consensus est., particularly in a

robust cap mkts environment, we are EW on valuation as BNY

trades at ~16x 2027 EPS, a 5x premium vs. 5 year avg.

Our Key Takeaways:

• Tenth straight quarter of strong positive operating leverage, with clear

organic growth momentum. BNY delivered nearly 600 bps of positive y/y

operating leverage (vs. Consensus 344 bps) on NII +20%, fees +13%, and

expenses +7% y/y. We now model ~480bps of operating leverage in FY26,

above the new guide of ~400bps, with clear organic growth a positive driver.

The Commercial Model helped drive 4.5% organic growth in 1H26, steadily

improving versus flat in 2022/2023, with record consecutive sales quarters

in 1Q/2Q. Average deal sizes have moved up >20% y/y, and ~10% of sales
