PNC Financial shares jumped 2.8% premarket after the bank's fourth-quarter profit surged 25%, driven by higher interest income and a rebound in dealmaking. Regions Financial fell 1.9% as its quarterly earnings missed analyst estimates, despite full-year revenue growth.

Novo Nordisk gained 4.3% after U.K. regulators approved a higher weekly dose for its weight-loss drug Wegovy, a key step for market expansion. Meanwhile, JB Hunt slumped 4.1% on mixed quarterly results, including a year-over-year revenue decline for the logistics firm.

The broader market saw futures edge higher, buoyed by mostly healthy earnings and strong economic data. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing added 1% after reporting stronger-than-expected profit, citing robust AI demand. Other decliners included Kraft Heinz and HP, both downgraded by analysts citing competitive pressures.
