    American Express Company (NYSE:AXP) today announced that the Federal Reserve set the company's preliminary Stress Capital Buffer ("SCB") requirement at 2.5 percent, effective October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026, based on the results of the 2025 Comprehensive Capital Analysis and Review process. This is the minimum SCB requirement under the applicable regulations and is consistent with American Express' previously disclosed SCB in effect through September 30, 2025.

    "The results of this year's stress test once again reaffirmed our strong capital position and the earnings power of our resilient business model," said Christophe Le Caillec, Chief Financial Officer. "We remain focused on executing our disciplined capital allocation strategy, prioritizing investments in our business to drive sustainable long-term growth, while maintaining a strong balance sheet and returning excess capital to our shareholders."

    As previously disclosed, American Express increased its quarterly dividend on common shares by 17 percent to $0.82 per share beginning with the first quarter 2025 dividend declaration, and returned $5.4 billion of capital to shareholders via share repurchases during the 12 months ended March 31, 2025.

    The SCB requirement is subject to final confirmation by the Federal Reserve, which is expected by August 31, 2025.
