Safe Harbor Statement Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements The information contained in this presentation may contain forward-looking statements. When used or incorporated by reference in disclosure documents, the words “believe,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “target,” “goal” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements within the meaning of section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These forward-looking statements include but are not limited to: statements of our goals, intentions and expectations; statements regarding our business plans, prospects, growth and operating strategies; statements regarding the quality of our loan and investment portfolios; and estimates of our risks and future costs and benefits. These forward-looking statements are based on current beliefs and expectations of our management and are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control. In addition, these forward-looking statements are subject to assumptions with respect to future business strategies and decisions that are subject to change. Such forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including but not limited to those set forth below: Operating, legal and regulatory risks; Economic, political and competitive forces impacting various lines of business; Legislative, regulatory and accounting changes; Demand for our financial products and services in our market area; Major catastrophes such as earthquakes, floods or other natural or human disasters and infectious disease outbreaks, including the current coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the related disruption to local, regional and global economic activity and financial markets, and the impact that any of the foregoing may have on us and our customers and other constituencies; Volatility in interest rates; Fluctuations in real estate values in our market area; The composition and credit quality of our loan and investment portfolios; Changes in the level and direction of loan delinquencies and charge-offs and changes in estimates of the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses; Our ability to access cost-effective funding; Our ability to continue to implement our business strategies; Our ability to manage market risk, credit risk and operational risk; Timing of revenue and expenditures; Adverse changes in the securities markets; Our ability to enter new markets successfully and capitalize on growth opportunities; Return on investment decisions; System failures or cyber-security breaches of our information technology infrastructure and those of our third-party service providers; Our ability to retain key employees; Other risks and uncertainties, including those occurring in the U.S. and world financial systems; and The risk that our analysis of these risks and forces could be incorrect and/or that the strategies developed to address them could be unsuccessful.
Safe Harbor Statement (cont’d) The COVID-19 pandemic has caused significant economic dislocation in the United States as many state and local governments ordered non-essential businesses to close and residents to shelter in place at home. While jurisdictions in which we operate have gradually allowed the reopening of businesses and other organizations and removed the sheltering restrictions, it is premature to assess whether doing so will result in a meaningful increase in economic activity and the impact of such actions on further COVID-19 cases. Given its ongoing and dynamic nature, it is difficult to predict the full impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on our business. The extent of such impact will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, including when the coronavirus can be controlled and abated. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the related adverse local and national economic consequences, our forward-looking statements are subject to the following risks, uncertainties and assumptions: Demand for our products and services may decline; If the economy is unable to substantially and successfully reopen, and high levels of unemployment continue for an extended period of time, loan delinquencies, problem assets, and foreclosures may increase; Collateral for loans, especially real estate, may decline in value; Our allowance for credit losses on loans and leases may increase if borrowers experience financial difficulties; The net worth and liquidity of loan guarantors may decline; A further and sustained decline in our stock price or the occurrence of what management would deem to be a triggering event that could, under certain circumstances, cause management to perform impairment testing on its goodwill or core deposit and customer relationships intangibles that could result in an impairment charge being recorded for that period, that would adversely impact our results of operations and the ability of the Bank to pay dividends to us; As a result of the decline in the Federal Reserve’s target federal funds rate to near 0%, the yield on our assets may decline to a greater extent than the decline in our cost of interest-bearing liabilities; A material decrease in net income or a net loss over several quarters could result in the elimination of or a decrease in the rate of our quarterly cash dividend; Our wealth management revenues may decline with continuing market turmoil; Our cyber security risks are increased as a result of an increase in the number of employees working remotely; FDIC premiums may increase if the agency experience additional resolution costs; and We face litigation, regulatory enforcement and reputation risk as a result of our participation in the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) and the risk that the Small Business Administration may not fund some or all PPP loan guaranties. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, estimated, expected or projected. These and other risk factors are more fully described in this presentation and in the Univest Financial Corporation Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 under the section entitled "Item 1A - Risk Factors," as well as in the Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2020, and from time to time in other filings made by the Corporation with the SEC. These forward-looking statements speak only at the date of the presentation. The Corporation expressly disclaims any obligation to publicly release any updates or revisions to reflect any change in the Corporation’s expectations with regard to any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures This presentation contains financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Management uses these “non-GAAP” measures in its analysis of the Corporation’s performance. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures allow for better comparability of period to period operating performance. Additionally, the Corporation believes this information is utilized by regulators and market analysts to evaluate a company’s financial condition and therefore, such information is useful to investors. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures used in this presentation to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is provided in the Appendix to this presentation.

This amount is included in noninterest expense and increases our efficiency ratio by approximately 170 bps compared to other banks that do not have this tax.

Current Expected Credit Loss (CECL) Implementation On January 1, 2020, the Corporation adopted Accounting Standard Update No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (“CECL”). Upon adoption, the Corporation recognized: $12.9 million increase in the allowance for loans and leases credit losses $1.1 million increase in the reserve for unfunded commitments $300 thousand increase in the allowance for investment credit losses This resulted in an after-tax retained earnings adjustment of $11.3 million During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the provision for credit losses was $45.6 million, of which $42.0 million related to loans and leases, $3.0 million related to unfunded commitments and $555 thousand related to investment securities While the Corporation’s portfolio has not yet demonstrated material indications of weakness, provisioning under CECL reflects forward-looking economic assumptions; $40.2 million of the year-to-date provision was attributable to changes in these forward-looking economic assumptions Since 12/31/19, the allowance for loan and lease credit losses has increased 144% At 6/30/20, the allowance for loan and lease credit losses as a percentage of loans and leases held for investment (excluding PPP loans) was 1.94% compared to 0.81% at 12/31/19 27
