Net revenue on a U.S. GAAP basis totaled $22.8 billion, $23.8 billion, and $24.5 billion for the third quarter of 2015, second quarter of 2015, and third quarter of 2014, respectively.
Discussion of Results:
Net income was $6.8 billion, an increase of 22%.
Net revenue was $23.5 billion, down 6%, driven by lower CIB Markets revenue including business simplification and lower Mortgage Banking revenue.
Net interest income was $11.2 billion, down 1% compared to the prior year, as lower investment securities balances and lower trading net interest income were predominantly offset by loan growth. Net interest income was up 2% quarter-over-quarter, driven by higher loan yields and balances.
Noninterest expense was $15.4 billion, down 3%, driven by lower CIB expense related to compensation and business simplification, partially offset by higher legal expense.
The provision for credit losses was $682 million, down 10%, due to lower net charge-offs, largely offset by lower reserve releases. In the current quarter, consumer reserve releases of $591 million13, reflecting continued improvement in home prices and delinquencies, were largely offset by an increase in reserves across the wholesale businesses of $310 million driven by select downgrades, including Oil & Gas.
The current quarter reflected tax benefits of $2.2 billion due to the resolution of tax audits and the release of deferred taxes.

1. Notes on non-GAAP financial measures:The Firm presents pretax income, net income (assumes a tax rate of 38% for items that are tax deductible) and earnings per share excluding certain notable items. These measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as a substitute for, the Firm's reported results. Management believes this information helps investors understand the effect of these items on reported results and provides an additional presentation of the Firm's performance. The table below provides a reconciliation of reported results to these non-GAAP financial measures:

In addition to analyzing the Firm's results on a reported basis, management reviews the Firm's results, including the overhead ratio, and the results of the lines of business, on a 'managed' basis, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. The Firm's definition of managed basis starts with the reported U.S. GAAP results and includes certain reclassifications to present total net revenue for the Firm (and each of the business segments) on a fully taxable-equivalent ('FTE') basis. Accordingly, revenue from investments that receive tax credits and tax-exempt securities is presented in the managed results on a basis comparable to taxable investments and securities. This non-GAAP financial measure allows management to assess the comparability of revenue arising from both taxable and tax-exempt sources. The corresponding income tax impact related to tax-exempt items is recorded within income tax expense. These adjustments have no impact on consolidated net income as reported by the Firm as a whole or by the lines of business.
Tangiblecommonequity ('TCE'), return on tangiblecommonequity ('ROTCE') and tangible book value per share ('TBVPS') are each non-GAAP financial measures. TCE represents the Firm's common stockholders' equity (i.e., total stockholders' equity less preferred stock) less goodwill and identifiable intangible assets (other than MSRs), net of related deferred tax liabilities. ROTCE measures the Firm's earnings as a percentage of average TCE. TBVPS represents the Firm's TCE at period- end divided by common shares at period-end. TCE, ROTCE and TBVPS are meaningful to the Firm, as well as investors and analysts, in assessing the Firm's use of equity.
Adjusted expense and adjusted overhead ratio are each non-GAAP financial measures, and exclude Firmwide legal expense ($1.3 billion in the third quarter of 2015). Management believes this information helps investors understand the effect of this item on reported results and provides an alternate presentation of the Firm's performance.
Estimated as of 3Q15. Common equity Tier 1 ('CET1') capital, the CET1 ratio and the supplementary leverage ratio ('SLR') under the Basel III Advanced Fully Phased-In rules, are each non-GAAP financial measures. These measures are used by management, bank regulators, investors and analysts to assess and monitor the Firm's capital position. For further discussion of these measures, see Regulatory capital on pages 146-153 of JPMorgan Chase & Co.'s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 and pages 67-71 of the Firm's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2015.
The CIB provides the change in Total Markets and Fixed Income Markets revenue excluding the revenue related to business simplification, a non-GAAP financial measure, to provide a more meaningful assessment of the underlying performance of the business.
Percentage comparisons noted in the bullet points are calculated for the third quarter of 2015 versus the prior-year third quarter, unless otherwise specified.
Represents estimated CET1 capital and ratio under the Basel III Advanced Fully Phased-In capital rules to which the Firm will be subject to as of January 1, 2019.

For further discussion, see page 2 of the Earnings Release Financial Supplement.
Represents the estimated liquidity coverage ratio ('LCR') based on the U.S. LCR rules which became effective January 1, 2015.
High quality liquid assets ('HQLA') is the estimated amount of assets that qualify for inclusion in the U.S. LCR, which became effective January 1, 2015.
The amount of credit provided to clients represents new and renewed credit, including loans and commitments. The amount of credit provided to small businesses reflects loans and increased lines of credit provided by Consumer & Business Banking; Card, Commerce Solutions & Auto; and Commercial Banking. The amount of credit provided to nonprofit and government entities, including states, municipalities, hospitals and universities, represents credit provided by the Corporate & Investment Bank and Commercial Banking.
Includes credit reserves related to consumer loans reported in CCB, prime mortgage and home equity loans reported in AM, and prime mortgage loans reported in Corporate.
Chase Commerce Solutions, formerly known as Chase Merchant Services, includes the Chase Paymentech, ChaseNet and Chase Offers businesses.
Effective in the second quarter of 2015, investment banking revenue (formerly investment banking fees) incorporates all revenue associated with investment banking activities, and is reported net of investment banking revenue shared with other lines of business; previously such shared revenue had been reported in Fixed Income Markets and Equity Markets. Prior periods have been revised to conform with the current period presentation.
Effective in the second quarter of 2015, Trade Finance revenue was transferred from Treasury Services to Lending. Prior periods have been revised to conform with the current period presentation.
Effective with the first quarter of 2015, the Firm began including the results of Private Equity in the Other Corporate line within the Corporate segment. Prior period amounts have been revised to conform with the current period presentation. The Corporate segment's balance sheets and results of operations were not impacted by this reporting change.
