Zions Bancorporation’s Third Quarter 2020 Earnings Results Webcast. Transcript link: 

CEO: "we are generally pleased with the overall results for the quarter. Earnings per share are back to a level experienced throughout much of 2019. Although, revenue has declined somewhat from what experienced then. Our non-interest expenses declined moderately, resulting in adjusted pre-provision net revenue, excluding the charitable contribution we made during the quarter of pre-provision net revenue of $297 million, which is actually somewhat stronger than the quarterly average in 2019. Additionally with the diluted shares have declined by about 17% from the levels in early 2019, which is the result of share repurchases prior to the pandemic and the expiration of warrants earlier this year."
