Mortgage banking, lower costs help push M&T profit higher

Profit at M&T Bank Corp. (NYSE: MTB) rose more than 60 percent in the third quarter to $293 million, or $2.17 per share.

Net income in the third quarter of 2011 totaled $183 million, or $1.32 per share. The improved results stem from higher mortgage banking revenues, an increase in net interest income, and a lower provision for loan losses.

Expenses also fell 7 percent from a year earlier after the integration of Wilmington Trust Corp. operations. Buffalo–based M&T acquired Wilmington in May 2011.
