Fulton Financial Corporation reported net income of $62 million, or $0.38 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2020. “While it is still too early to fully assess the impact of COVID-19 on our regional economy, we were pleased that our third quarter produced stronger results than we had initially predicted in both our commercial and consumer lines of business,” said E. Philip Wenger, Chairman and CEO. “In particular, our mortgage business achieved record growth in the third quarter, coming on the heels of a record second quarter. Loan growth, fee income and credit quality also exceeded our expectations. And after a strategic, company-wide review, we are taking steps to significantly reduce our annual operating expenses for the future, with the goal of prudently managing the company for the longer term.”
