Does management do what it says?
Fourth-quarter 2025 NII was $24.1 billion, about 3.6% below the approximately $25 billion target. NII excluding Markets was $23.0 billion, about 2.1% below the approximately $23.5 billion target. Both shortfalls are within the stated ~5% tolerance, so delivery is assessed as met within tolerance. (1 missed, 4 met across 5 tracked commitments)

The filing confirms the forward purchase commitment remains in place and continues to state an expected closing approximately 24 months after December 30, 2025.

The filing confirms that JPMorganChase submitted its 2026 Capital Plan to the Federal Reserve on April 6, 2026, but does not report the Federal Reserve's summary stress-test results.
