Safe Harbor Statements Non-GAAP Financial Matters This presentation contains certain non-GAAP financial measures, including, without limitation, earnings per diluted common share, adjusted pre-tax pre-provision net revenue and adjusted pre-tax pre- provision net revenue per common share, excluding in certain instances the impact of expenses related to other real estate owned, gains or losses on sale of investment securities, the charges associated with Pinnacle Financial's branch rationalization project, FHLB restructuring charges, the sale of the remaining portion of Pinnacle Bank's non-prime automobile portfolio, the revaluation of Pinnacle Financial’s deferred tax assets and other matters for the accounting periods presented. This presentation also includes non-GAAP financial measures which exclude the impact of loans originated under the PPP. This presentation may also contain certain other non-GAAP capital ratios and performance measures that exclude the impact of goodwill and core deposit intangibles associated with Pinnacle Financial's acquisitions of BNC, Avenue Bank, Magna Bank, CapitalMark Bank & Trust, Mid-America Bancshares, Inc., Cavalry Bancorp, Inc. and other acquisitions which collectively are less material to the non-GAAP measure as well as the impact of Pinnacle Financial’s Series B Preferred Stock. The presentation of the non-GAAP financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for any measure prepared in accordance with GAAP. Because non-GAAP financial measures presented in this presentation are not measurements determined in accordance with GAAP and are susceptible to varying calculations, these non-GAAP financial measures, as presented, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Pinnacle Financial believes that these non-GAAP financial measures facilitate making period-to-period comparisons and are meaningful indications of its operating performance. In addition, because intangible assets such as goodwill and the core deposit intangible, and the other items excluded each vary extensively from company to company, Pinnacle Financial believes that the presentation of this information allows investors to more easily compare Pinnacle Financial's results to the results of other companies. Pinnacle Financial's management utilizes this non-GAAP financial information to compare Pinnacle Financial's operating performance for 2020 versus certain periods in 2019 and to internally prepared projections. This investor presentation also includes references to estimated levels of adjusted pre-tax, pre-provision net revenue which is not presented as forecast or projection of future operating results. Pinnacle Financial does not provide reconciliations of adjusted pre-tax, pre-provision net revenue on a forward-looking basis to its most comparable GAAP financial measure because Pinnacle Financial is unable to forecast the amount or significance of certain items required to develop a meaningful comparable GAAP financial measures without unreasonable efforts. These items include impairment charges, gains or losses on sales of securities, ORE expenses, and incentive compensation expense, which are difficult to predict and estimate and are primarily dependent on future events, but which are excluded from Pinnacle Financial’s calculation of adjusted pre-tax, pre-provision net revenue. Pinnacle Financial believes that the probable significance of providing this forward-looking non-GAAP financial measure without a reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, is that investors and analysts will have certain information that Pinnacle Financial believes is useful and meaningful regarding its operations, including its estimates on its ability to generate revenue before provision for credit losses expense, but will not have that information on a GAAP basis. Investors are cautioned that Pinnacle Financial cannot predict the occurrence, timing or amount of all non-GAAP items that may be excluded from adjusted pre-tax, pre-provision net revenue in the future. Accordingly, the actual effect of these items, when determined could potentially be significant to the calculation of adjusted pre-tax, pre-provision net revenue. 3
