We are fully committed to protecting our shareholders while mitigating the impact of these increased requirements, if possible, on our clients, employees and the communities where we live and work."

First quarter 2026 performance overview

Strong financial performance driven by franchise strength and client momentum

In 1Q26, we reported a profit before tax (PBT) of USD 3,841m and underlying PBT of USD 3,990m, up 80% YoY and 54% YoY, respectively. Continued revenue growth in our core franchises and disciplined execution of our gross cost-reduction plans led to the fourth consecutive quarter of positive operating leverage with reported revenues outpacing reported costs by 13 percentage points in the quarter.

Global Wealth Management (GWM) net new assets for the quarter reached USD 37.4bn, representing a 3.1% annualized growth rate, with positive flows across all regions, supported by strong demand for our discretionary mandates. Net new money in Asset Management reached USD 14.0bn, an annualized growth rate of 2.7%, led by strong ETF momentum and robust inflows into the separately managed account (SMA) offering. Group invested assets were USD 6.9trn at the end of the quarter, with impacts of lower markets and FX only partly offset by net asset inflows.

Reported revenues were USD 14,243m, up 13% YoY. On an underlying basis, revenues increased by 15% to USD 13,644m, driven by an 18% YoY increase in core franchises revenues. We saw particular strength in GWM with a 10% growth in underlying recurring net fee income and an 17% YoY rise in underlying transaction-based income, as well as in the Investment Bank, where Global Markets underlying revenues increased 31% YoY to an all-time-high of USD 3,252m driven by records in our Equities and Foreign Exchange, Rates, and Credit businesses. Global Banking underlying revenues were up 30%, with a standout quarter in Equity Capital Markets.

We also continued to support businesses and households in Switzerland with our global reach, advice and expertise. Our balance sheet for all seasons also gives our clients the stability they need while allowing us to remain a leading provider of credit to the economy. We have granted or renewed CHF ~40bn of loans in 1Q26 to Swiss businesses and households.

Successfully completed client account migrations

With the transfers of the last Swiss-booked client accounts onto the UBS infrastructure in March, we have successfully completed the migration of around 1.2 million clients globally.

This critical milestone in the integration of Credit Suisse creates new opportunities for growth and innovation, strengthens our position for the long-term, and unlocks further efficiencies to be realized as we progress towards substantially completing the integration by the year-end.

Through our disciplined execution and further reduction of the Non-core and Legacy unit we delivered an additional USD 0.8bn in Group-wide gross cost saves in the quarter. Cumulative gross cost savings reached USD 11.5bn at the end of 1Q26. We also continue to decommission legacy technology infrastructure and applications. To date we have retired ~1,700 (or 60%) of business applications in scope and switched off 76,000 servers (71% of total in scope).

As we continue to achieve our integration milestones and drive business momentum, we remain confident that we can deliver against our 2026-exit rate targets of an underlying ~15% return on CET1 capital and underlying cost/income (C/I) ratio of <70%.

Balance sheet for all seasons and attractive capital returns

Robust capital generation allowed us to end the quarter with a CET1 capital ratio of 14.7% and CET1 leverage ratio of 4.4%, both comfortably above our guidance of ~14% and >4%, respectively.

In the quarter, we also continued to execute our capital distributions, having repurchased USD 0.9bn of shares and accrued for a mid-teens growth in dividend. We are on track to buy back USD 3bn in shares by the time we report 2Q26 earnings with an aim to do more by year-end, subject to our financial performance and outlook, maintaining a CET1 capital ratio of around 14% at year-end, and visibility on parliamentary deliberations on the treatment of foreign participations.

Investing for sustainable long-term growth

We remain focused on investing into our talent, offering, and technology, including award-winning AI solutions to enhance our client experience, further strengthen our infrastructure and drive efficiency to position us for the future.

We have received a final approval for a National Bank Charter in the US, supporting our long-term growth ambitions in the region.

We also continue to develop innovative AI solutions that complement our offering and enable us to deliver impactful outcomes faster and incrementally, with continued progress in reshaping our business capabilities and enhancing employee productivity. We already have over 500 live use cases of AI across the bank with around 750 use cases in development and are progressing on our 9 large-scale, end-to-end transformational initiatives.

Our strategic approach to applying AI at scale to support Financial Advisors through our Smart Technologies and Advanced Analytics Team (STAAT) was recognized by the Financial Times at the Professional Wealth Management Wealth Tech Awards, which named UBS as the Best Wealth Management Firm for Use of AI in the US.

Changes to the regulatory regime in Switzerland

In April 2026, the Swiss Federal Council published its final amendments to the Capital Adequacy Ordinance (the CAO) specifying the regulatory capital treatment of selected assets. Under the amended ordinance, UBS's capitalized software will be subject to an amortization of a maximum of three years for regulatory capital purposes, irrespective of the actual economic useful life. In addition, prudential valuation adjustments will be revised, resulting in higher capital deductions for assets and liabilities that are subject to valuation uncertainty. The capital treatment of deferred tax assets arising from temporary differences remains unchanged. The amendments to the CAO will become effective on 1 January 2027, except for the revised capital treatment of capitalized software, which will apply from 1 January 2029.

Regarding additional tier 1 (AT1) capital instruments, the Swiss Federal Council has decided not to proceed with the adjustments proposed in June 2025. The Swiss Federal Council also finalized measures that aim to enable the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA) and other authorities to better assess the liquidity of banks in a stressed situation.

In addition, the Swiss Federal Council submitted to the Swiss Parliament its final proposal for amendments to the Banking Act that govern the capital treatment of systemically important banks' investments in foreign subsidiaries. This proposal will now be deliberated by the Swiss Parliament. Under the proposal, investments in foreign subsidiaries would be fully deducted from UBS AG's standalone common equity tier 1 (CET1) capital. The amendments would be phased in over seven years, with a 65% deduction requirement in the first year and increasing to 100% by 5-percentage-point increments each year.

For UBS AG standalone, the amendments at the ordinance level related to capitalized software and prudential valuation adjustments, once fully implemented, are expected to have a net CET1 capital impact of approximately USD 2bn. The proposed full deduction of investments in foreign subsidiaries would require UBS AG standalone to hold additional CET1 capital of around USD 20bn. The total incremental CET1 capital would amount to around USD 22bn required at the UBS AG standalone level. At the Group level, the amendments at ordinance level will lead to a derecognition of around USD 4bn of net CET1 capital. These estimates have been calculated based on UBS Group AG's consolidated balance sheet as of 31 December 2025, assuming that all capital measures are adopted as currently proposed and using an assumed CET1 capital ratio of 12.5% for UBS AG and 14.0% for UBS Group.

The incremental capital requirement of USD 22bn mentioned above would come on top of the USD 15bn of capital required as a result of the Credit Suisse acquisition. This includes around USD 9bn in response to the abolition of regulatory concessions that had been granted to Credit Suisse and around USD 6bn to meet the progressive requirements due to the increased size and higher market share of the combined business. On this basis, UBS would be required to hold around USD 37bn of additional CET1 capital in total.

Outlook

As we move through the second quarter, markets have remained broadly resilient, reflecting expectations that a durable diplomatic solution to the Middle East conflict is achievable. That said, while client activity remains healthy, risks are still elevated, and conditions could shift rapidly, which may impact client sentiment and activity levels.

In this environment, our focus remains on supporting clients through disciplined execution, a prudent and selective investment approach focused on diversification and principal protection.

We expect second quarter net interest income in both Global Wealth Management and Personal & Corporate Banking to be broadly flat sequentially.

The current backdrop reinforces the benefits of our balance sheet for all seasons, and we are confident in delivering on our 2026 financial targets while continuing to invest in sustainable growth and long-term value creation.

UBS's sustainability and impact highlights

Our 2025 Sustainability Report was published in March and ratified by shareholders at the UBS Annual General Meeting through an advisory vote, receiving 89.2% support. The report reaffirmed our ambition to position UBS as a leader in sustainability, guided by our three strategic pillars – Protect, Grow and Attract – and our commitment to supporting clients as they transition to a low‑carbon economy.

In 2025, we made significant progress towards our Scope 1 and 2 net‑zero target, reducing emissions by 48% cumulatively against the 2023 baseline and by 20% year‑on‑year. These reductions were achieved through energy‑efficiency initiatives and increased use of renewable electricity. For Scope 3 emissions, we remain committed to our lending sector decarbonization targets in priority sectors and to further developing our approach to transition finance.

External recognition

Our progress was reflected in key environmental, social and governance (ESG) ratings. MSCI reaffirmed UBS's AA rating in March, and we maintained our strong performance in the S&P Global Corporate Sustainability Assessment.

UBS was also included in the S&P Global Sustainability Yearbook 2026, published in February. This year, more than 9,200 companies were assessed, with only 848 companies across 59 industries selected for inclusion based on top‑tier sustainability performance.

Donor-advised fund launched in Australia

In February, UBS launched its donor‑advised fund (DAF) in Australia, providing clients with a cost‑effective and highly flexible way to support their chosen charities while avoiding the administrative and financial burden typically associated with giving. The fund operates as a dedicated giving account, offering many of the benefits of a charitable family foundation, with all governance and administrative responsibilities managed and funded by UBS. The donor‑advised fund is just one example of the impactful solutions UBS provides to support philanthropic planning, execution and delivery to our clients across the globe.

Trends in Philanthropy 2026

In January, we published our annual Trends in Philanthropy review. The 2026 edition places a particular focus on family offices, with UBS philanthropy experts identifying three key trends shaping how family offices approach philanthropy and impact. These trends include closer alignment between wealth, impact and long‑term value creation; deploying capital beyond traditional financial instruments; and more active engagement in public‑private partnerships. The report explores how family offices are helping to shape the future of philanthropy and impact.

Cautionary statement regarding forward-looking statements

This news release contains statements that constitute "forward-looking statements", including but not limited to management's outlook for UBS's financial performance, statements relating to the anticipated effect of transactions and strategic initiatives on UBS's business and future development and goals. While these forward-looking statements represent UBS's judgments, expectations and objectives concerning the matters described, a number of risks, uncertainties and other important factors could cause actual developments and results to differ materially from UBS's expectations. In particular, the global economy may suffer significant adverse effects from increasing political tensions between world powers, changes to international trade policies, including those related to tariffs and trade barriers, and evolving armed conflicts. UBS's acquisition of the Credit Suisse Group materially changed its outlook and strategic direction and introduced new operational challenges. The integration of the Credit Suisse entities into the UBS structure is expected to continue through 2026 and presents significant operational and execution risk, including the risks that UBS may be unable to achieve the cost reductions and business benefits contemplated by the transaction, that it may incur higher costs to execute the integration of Credit Suisse and that the acquired business may have greater risks or liabilities, including those related to litigation, than expected. In response to the failure of Credit Suisse, Switzerland has amended its Capital Adequacy Ordinance and is considering changes to its Banking Act, which, if enacted as proposed, would substantially increase capital requirements for UBS in relation to its foreign subsidiaries. These factors create greater uncertainty about forward-looking statements. Other factors that may affect UBS's performance and ability to achieve its plans, outlook and other objectives also include, but are not limited to: (i) the degree to which UBS is successful in the execution of its strategic plans, including its cost reduction and efficiency initiatives and its ability to manage its levels of risk-weighted assets (RWA) and leverage ratio denominator (LRD), liquidity coverage ratio and other financial resources, including changes in RWA assets and liabilities arising from higher market volatility and the size of the combined Group; (ii) the degree to which UBS is successful in implementing changes to its businesses to meet changing market, regulatory and other conditions, including any potential changes to banking examination and oversight practices and standards as a result of executive branch orders or staff interpretations of law in the US; (iii) inflation and interest rate volatility in major markets; (iv) developments in the macroeconomic climate and in the markets in which UBS operates or to which it is exposed, including movements in securities prices or liquidity, credit spreads, currency exchange rates, residential and commercial real estate markets, general economic conditions, and changes to national trade policies on the financial position or creditworthiness of UBS's clients and counterparties, as well as on client sentiment and levels of activity; (v) changes in the availability of capital and funding, including any adverse changes in UBS's credit spreads and credit ratings of UBS, as well as availability and cost of funding, including as affected by the marketability of additional tier one debt instruments, to meet requirements for debt eligible for total loss-absorbing capacity (TLAC); (vi) changes in and potential divergence between central bank policies or the implementation of financial legislation and regulation in Switzerland, the US, the UK, the EU and other financial centers that have imposed, or resulted in, or may do so in the future, more stringent or entity-specific capital, TLAC, leverage ratio, net stable funding ratio, liquidity and funding requirements, heightened operational resilience requirements, incremental tax requirements, additional levies, limitations on permitted activities, constraints on remuneration, constraints on transfers of capital and liquidity and sharing of operational costs across the Group or other measures, and the effect these will or would have on UBS's business activities; (vii) UBS's ability to successfully implement resolvability and related regulatory requirements and the potential need to make further changes to the legal structure or booking model of UBS in response to legal and regulatory requirements including heightened requirements and expectations due to its acquisition of the Credit Suisse Group; (viii) UBS's ability to maintain and improve its systems and controls for complying with sanctions in a timely manner and for the detection and prevention of money laundering to meet evolving regulatory requirements and expectations, in particular in the current geopolitical turmoil; (ix) the uncertainty arising from domestic stresses in certain major economies; (x) changes in UBS's competitive position, including whether differences in regulatory capital and other requirements among the major financial centers adversely affect UBS's ability to compete in certain lines of business; (xi) changes in the standards of conduct applicable to its businesses that may result from new regulations or new enforcement of existing standards, including measures to impose new and enhanced duties when interacting with customers and in the execution and handling of customer transactions; (xii) the liability to which UBS may be exposed, or possible constraints or sanctions that regulatory authorities might impose on UBS, due to litigation, including litigation it has inherited by virtue of the acquisition of the Credit Suisse Group, contractual claims and regulatory investigations, including the potential for disqualification from certain businesses, potentially large fines or monetary penalties, or the loss of licenses or privileges as a result of regulatory or other governmental sanctions, as well as the effect that litigation, regulatory and similar matters have on the operational risk component of its RWA; (xiii) UBS's ability to retain and attract the employees necessary to generate revenues and to manage, support and control its businesses, which may be affected by competitive factors; (xiv) changes in accounting or tax standards or policies, and determinations or interpretations affecting the recognition of gain or loss, the valuation of goodwill, the recognition of deferred tax assets and other matters; (xv) UBS's ability to implement new technologies and business methods, including digital services, artificial intelligence and other technologies, and ability to successfully compete with both existing and new financial service providers, some of which may not be regulated to the same extent; (xvi) limitations on the effectiveness of UBS's internal processes for risk management, risk control, measurement and modeling, and of financial models generally; (xvii) the occurrence of operational failures, such as fraud, misconduct, unauthorized trading, financial crime, cyberattacks, data leakage and systems failures, the risk of which is increased with persistently high levels of cyberattack threats; (xviii) restrictions on the ability of UBS Group AG, UBS AG and regulated subsidiaries of UBS AG to make payments or distributions, including due to restrictions on the ability of its subsidiaries to make loans or distributions, directly or indirectly, or, in the case of financial difficulties, due to the exercise by the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA) or the regulators of UBS's operations in other countries of their broad statutory powers in relation to protective measures, restructuring and liquidation proceedings; (xix) the degree to which changes in regulation, capital or legal structure, financial results or other factors may affect UBS's ability to maintain its stated capital return objective; (xx) uncertainty over the scope of actions that may be required by UBS, governments and others for UBS to achieve goals relating to climate, environmental and social matters, as well as the evolving nature of underlying science and industry and the increasing divergence among regulatory regimes; (xxi) the ability of UBS to access capital markets; (xxii) the ability of UBS to successfully recover from a disaster or other business continuity problem due to a hurricane, flood, earthquake, terrorist attack, war, conflict, pandemic, security breach, cyberattack, power loss, telecommunications failure or other natural or man-made event; and (xxiii) the effect that these or other factors or unanticipated events, including media reports and speculations, may have on its reputation and the additional consequences that this may have on its business and performance. The sequence in which the factors above are presented is not indicative of their likelihood of occurrence or the potential magnitude of their consequences. UBS's business and financial performance could be affected by other factors identified in its past and future filings and reports, including those filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC). More detailed information about those factors is set forth in documents furnished by UBS and filings made by UBS with the SEC, including the UBS Group AG and UBS AG Annual Reports on Form 20-F for the year ended 31 December 2025. UBS is not under any obligation to (and expressly disclaims any obligation to) update or alter its forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
