KeyCorp NYSE: KEY reported higher second-quarter 2026 earnings and raised parts of its full-year outlook, citing stronger commercial loan growth, expanding net interest income and continued momentum in fee-based businesses, while management also addressed investor questions about margin performance, deposit growth and the timing of a recovery in middle-market investment banking.

The headline numbers for KeyCorp (KEY) give insight into how the company performed in the quarter ended June 2026, but it may be worthwhile to compare some of its key metrics to Wall Street estimates and the year-ago actuals.

KeyCorp remains a Buy with 7-8% upside and a $25 price target, supported by strong Q2 results and a robust capital position. KEY's net interest margin is expanding due to securities portfolio rollover and disciplined deposit pricing, driving visible earnings growth into 2027. Loan growth is accelerating, focused on business lending, while credit quality and reserves remain solid despite a rise in nonperforming assets.
