Please review “Forward-Looking Statements” for more information on the forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“this Report”). All statements that address operating performance, events or developments that we expect or anticipate will occur in the future are forward-looking statements. Our actual results may differ materially from those included in these forward-looking statements due to a variety of factors including, but not limited to, those described in “Part II—Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2025 (the“Q2 2025 Form 10-Q”) and in this Report. Unless otherwise specified, references to notes to our consolidated financial statements refer to the notes to our consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2025 included in this Report. Management monitors a variety of key indicators to evaluate our business results and financial condition. The following MD&A is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our consolidated financial statements and related notes in this Report and the more detailed information contained in our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K (“2024 Form 10-K”). INTRODUCTION Capital One Financial Corporation, a Delaware corporation established in 1994 and headquartered in McLean, Virginia, is a diversified financial services holding company with banking and non-banking subsidiaries. Capital One Financial Corporation and its subsidiaries (the “Company” or “Capital One”) offer a broad array of financial products and services to consumers, small businesses and commercial clients through digital channels, branch locations, cafés and other distribution channels. Capital One Financial Corporation’s principal operating subsidiary was Capital One, National Association (“CONA”). On May 18, 2025 (the “Closing Date”), Discover Financial Services (“Discover”) merged into Capital One and Discover Bank merged into CONA. See “Part I—Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 2—Business Combinations and Discontinued Operations” for additional information. The Company is hereafter collectively referred to as “we,” “us” or “our.” CONA is referred to as the “Bank.” We are one of the largest issuers of credit cards in the United States of America (“U.S.”) based on the outstanding balance of credit card loans as of September 30, 2025. In addition to credit cards, we also offer debit cards, bank lending, treasury management and depository services, auto loans, and other consumer lending products in markets across the U.S. As one of the nation’s largest banks based on deposits as of September 30, 2025, we service banking customer accounts through digital channels and our network of branch locations, cafés, call centers and automated teller machines (“ATMs”). Additionally, through the acquisition of Discover, we acquired new products including personal loans as well as the Discover Network, the PULSE Network, Diners Club International (“Diners Club”) and Network Partners (collectively, the “Global Payment Network”). The Discover Network processes transactions for credit and debit cards issued on its network and provides payment transaction processing and settlement services. The PULSE Network operates an electronic funds transfer network, providing financial institutions issuing debit cards on the PULSE Network with access to ATMs domestically and internationally, as well as merchant acceptance throughout the U.S. for debit card transactions. Diners Club is a global payments network of licensees, which are generally financial institutions, that issue Diners Club-branded charge cards and/or provide card acceptance services. We also have agreements with a number of financial institutions, financial technology firms, networks, network-to-network partners and other commercial service providers (collectively, “Network Partners”) for the provision of card issuing, payments processing and related services on the Global Payment Network. In our newly acquired network business, we compete with other networks for transaction volume and to attract Network Partners to issue credit, debit and prepaid cards on the Global Payment Network. We also offer credit card products and certain other services outside of the U.S. through Capital One (Europe) plc (“COEP”), an indirect subsidiary of CONA organized and located in the United Kingdom (“U.K.”), and through a branch of CONA in Canada. Both COEP and our Canadian branch of CONA have the authority to provide credit card loans. In addition, we offer Global Payment Network services globally. 4 Capital One Financial Corporation (COF) Table of Contents Our consolidated total net revenues are derived primarily from lending to consumer and commercial customers net of funding costs associated with our deposits, long-term debt and other borrowings. We also earn non-interest income which primarily consists of discount and interchange income, net of reward expenses, service charges and other customer-related fees. Our expenses primarily consist of the provision for credit losses, operating expenses, marketing expenses and income taxes. Our principal operations are organized for management reporting purposes into three major business segments, which are defined primarily based on the products and services provided or the types of customers served: Credit Card, Consumer Banking and Commercial Banking. The operations of acquired businesses have been integrated into or managed as a part of our existing business segments. Certain activities that are not part of a business segment are included in the Other category, such as the management of our corporate investment portfolio and asset/liability positions performed by our centralized Corporate Treasury group and any residual tax expense or benefit beyond what is assessed to our business segments in order to arrive at the consolidated effective tax rate. The Other category also includes unallocated corporate expenses that do not directly support the operations of the business segments or for which the business segments are not considered financially accountable in evaluating their performance, such as certain restructuring charges and integration expenses related to the acquisition of Discover. • Credit Card: Consists of our domestic consumer card lending, personal loans, domestic small business card lending and international card businesses in the U.K. and Canada. • Consumer Banking: Consists of our deposit gathering and lending activities for consumers and small businesses, national auto lending and services offered by the Global Payment Network. • Commercial Banking: Consists of our lending, deposit gathering, capital markets and treasury management services to commercial real estate and commercial and industrial customers. Our customers typically include companies with annual revenues between $20 million and $2 billion. Business Developments We regularly explore and evaluate opportunities to acquire financial products and services as well as financial assets, including credit card and other loan portfolios, and enter into strategic partnerships as part of our growth strategy. We also explore opportunities to acquire technology companies and related assets to improve our information technology infrastructure and to deliver on our digital strategy. We may issue equity or debt to fund our acquisitions. In addition, we regularly consider the potential disposition of certain of our assets, branches, partnership agreements or lines of business. Discover Acquisition On February 19, 2024, the Company entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Capital One, Discover, a Delaware corporation and Vega Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”). On May 18, 2025, the Company closed the acquisition of Discover, pursuant to which (i) Merger Sub merged with and into Discover, with Discover as the surviving entity in the merger (the “Merger”); (ii) immediately following the Merger, Discover, as the surviving entity, merged with and into Capital One, with Capital One as the surviving entity in the second-step merger (the “Second Step Merger”); and (iii) immediately following the Second Step Merger, Discover Bank, a Delaware-chartered and wholly owned subsidiary of Discover, merged with and into CONA, with CONA as the surviving entity in the merger (the “CONA Bank Merger,” and collectively with the Merger and Second Step Merger, the “Transaction”). The Transaction enables the Company to leverage its newly acquired networks, customer base, technology, and data ecosystem to drive value for merchants, consumers, and small businesses. The Company has begun to convert legacy Capital One customer debit cards on to the Global Payment Network. Upon closing, each share of common stock of Discover outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, other than certain shares held by Discover or Capital One, was converted into the right to receive 1.0192 shares of common stock of Capital One. Holders of Discover common stock received cash in lieu of fractional shares. At the effective time of the Second Step Merger, each share of Fixed-to-Floating Rate Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series C, of Discover, and each share of 6.125% Fixed-Rate Reset Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series D, of Discover, in each case outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Second Step Merger, was converted into the right to receive a share of newly created Fixed-to-Floating Rate Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series O or 6.125% Fixed-Rate Reset Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series P of Capital One. 5 Capital One Financial Corporation (COF) Table of Contents As of the Closing Date, the fair value of purchase consideration transferred was $51.8 billion. The fair value of total identifiable assets acquired was $168.1 billion, which included $108.2 billion of loans held for investment. The fair value of deposits assumed was $106.9 billion. Our results of operations for the third quarter of 2025 reflect the combined company. Our results of operations for the first nine months of 2025 reflect the activity of Discover’s acquired business operations for the period since the Closing Date. See “Part I—Item 1.Financial Statements—Note 2—Business Combinations and Discontinued Operations” for additional information. In the second quarter of 2025, the Board of Directors approved a plan to exit the Discover Home Loan business acquired as a part of the Transaction. We are actively marketing the business and are in the process of identifying potential buyers. See “Part I—Item 1. Financial Statements—Note 2—Business Combinations and Discontinued Operations” for additional information. 6 Capital One Financial Corporation (COF) Table of Contents SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA The following table presents selected consolidated financial data and perform Item 1A.

The provided text is only the cover/header portion of Archer Aviation’s Form 10‑Q for the quarter ended 2026‑03‑31 (issuer identity, exchange listing, and securities outstanding). It contains no operating/financial results, guidance, liquidity details, backlog, or risk-factor updates—so it is minimally actionable for trading beyond basic security identifiers and a generic dilution/optionality consideration from warrants.
