Item 8.01 Other Events.

On July 17, 2025, Citizens Financial Group, Inc. (the “ Company”) announced its second quarter 2025 earnings. The Company’s earnings results and financial supplement are being filed as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2, respectively.

On July 22, 2025, the Company announced the launch of a proposed public offering (the “ Offering”) of a new series of Fixed-Rate Reset Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series I (the “ Series I Preferred Stock”). The Offering is subject to pricing, which has not yet occurred. If the Offering is priced and proceeds to closing, the Company intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of the Series I Preferred Stock to redeem some or all outstanding shares of its 5.650% Fixed Rate Reset Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series F, $1,000 liquidation preference per share (CUSIP No. 174610AU9) (“ Series F Preferred Stock”), on the dividend payment date of October 6, 2025.

The pricing of the Offering, and thus whether the redemption of the Series F Preferred Stock will occur, is subject to market conditions and other considerations. There is no assurance that the Offering will price and close or that the Company will decide to redeem the Series F Preferred Stock, or, if it does, the amount to be redeemed and the timing of the redemption. If the Company decides to redeem the Series F Preferred Stock, it intends to announce its decision by press release and an appropriate notice of redemption following the closing of the Offering.

The Offering is described in the Company’s preliminary prospectus supplement dated July 22, 2025, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission today.

This Current Report on Form 8-K does not constitute an offer to sell the Series I Preferred Stock.
