Forward-looking Statements

This slide presentation and certain of our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission contain statements that constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of, and subject to the protections of, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements other than statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements.You can identify these forward-looking statements through Synovus’ use of words such as “believes,”“anticipates,”“expects,”“may,”“will,”“assumes,”“should,” “predicts,”“could,”“should,”“would,”“intends,”“targets,”“estimates,”“projects,”“plans,”“potential” and other similar words and expressions of the future or otherwise regarding the outlook for Synovus’ future business and financial performance and/or the performance of the commercial banking industry and economy in general.These forward-looking statements include, among others, (1) our expectations on credit trends; (2) expectations on core lending activity; (3) expectations on deposit trends; (4) expectations on cost savings from our efficiency and process redesign initiatives; (5) impact of our target deposit mix on our cost of funding; (6) our expected future impact of DTA valuation allowance; (7) expected annual impact from regulatory reform on fee income; and (8) the assumptions underlying our expectations. Prospective investors are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of Synovus to be materially different from the future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on the information known to, and current beliefs and expectations of, Synovus’ management and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements. A number of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements in this report. Many of these factors are beyond Synovus’ ability to control or predict.

These forward-looking statements are based upon information presently known to Synovus’ management and are inherently subjective, uncertain and subject to change due to any number of risks and uncertainties, including, without limitation, risks relating to execution of our efficiency initiatives and plans for growth and the risks and other factors set forth in Synovus’ filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 under the captions “Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” and in Synovus’ quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K. We believe these forward-looking statements are reasonable; however, undue reliance should not be placed on any forward-looking statements, which are based on current expectations and speak only as of the date that they are made. We do not assume any obligation to update any forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as otherwise may be required by law.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This slide presentation contains certain non-GAAP financial measures determined by methods other than in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Such non-GAAP financial measures include the following: pre-tax, pre-credit costs income; core deposits and core deposits excluding time deposits; net interest margin excluding negative impact of non-performing loans; fundamental non-interest expense; the ratio of pretax, pre-credit costs income to risk weighted assets, the tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio; and net loss per common share excluding restructuring charges. The most comparable GAAP measures to these measures are loss from continuing operations before income taxes; total deposits; net interest margin; total non-interest expense; the ratio of total equity to total assets; and net loss per common share, respectively. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to assess the performance of Synovus’ core business and the strength of its capital position. Synovus believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful additional information about Synovus to assist investors in evaluating Synovus’ operating results, financial strength and capitalization. The non-GAAP measures should be considered as additional views of the way our financial measures are affected by significant charges for credit costs and other factors.The tangible common equity ratio to tangible assets ratio and tangible common equity to risk-weighted assets ratio are used by management to assess the strength of our capital position. Core deposits and core deposits excluding time deposits are a measure used by management and investment analysts to evaluate organic growth of deposits and the quality of deposits as a funding source. The net interest margin excluding the negative impact of non-performing loans is a measure used by management to evaluate the net interest margin excluding the adverse impact of non-performing loans and interest charge-offs. Pre-tax, pre-credit costs income is a measure used by management to evaluate core operating results exclusive of credit costs as well as certain non-core income/ expenses such as restructuring charges. Fundamental non-interest expense is a measure utilized by management to measure the success of expense management initiatives focused on reducing recurring controllable operating costs.These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. The computations of the non-GAAP financial measures used in this slide presentation are set forth in the Appendix to this slide presentation.

Deferred Tax Asset and Valuation Allowance

(dollars in millions, except per share data)

2Q11

Net deferred tax assets before valuation allowance $831

Valuation allowance (829)

Net deferred tax assets after valuation allowance $2

$1.03* per common share

* Reflects the expectation that approximately $20 million of the valuation allowance will not reverse

Expected future impact of DTA valuation allowance

Currently, losses must be carried forward (by recording a deferred tax asset with a corresponding valuation allowance) resulting in a close to zero effective tax rate

Expect to record minimal to no tax expense when beginning to report income before taxes as reductions to the

DTA valuation allowance will be recognized

Expect to reverse most of the DTA valuation allowance once we have demonstrated a sustainable return to profitability, perhaps at the point we have significantly improved credit quality and experienced consecutive profitable quarters coupled with a forecast of sufficient continuing profitability

It should be noted that the reversal of the DTA valuation allowance is subject to considerable judgment

Depending upon the level of forecasted taxable income, the degree of risk related to realizing the forecasted taxable income, and estimated risk related to credit quality, the DTA valuation allowance could be reversed as a single event or over a period of time

Even after the reversal of the DTA valuation allowance under GAAP, which will immediately benefit GAAP capital and the TCE ratio, there would remain limitations on the ability to count the DTA for regulatory capital purposes; i.e., once taxes paid in carryback periods are exhausted, banks must deduct from Tier I capital the lower of (1) the amount by which net DTAs exceed what they would expect to realize within one year or (2) the amount by which the net DTAs exceed 10% of Tier I capital
