CFO Commentary “Our earnings growth year-over-year was driven by operating leverage, asset quality, and a lower tax rate. Net income increased 32% to $7.2 billion, and diluted earnings per share improved by 43%. For 12 straight quarters, our average deposits have grown year-over- year by more than $40 billion, reflecting the value to customers of our deposit capabilities and franchise – and driving both growth of net interest income and improvement in net interest yield. Responsible growth is also reflected in our asset quality where we reported a net charge-off ratio near a decade-low, complemented by virtually all other credit metrics continuing to improve across both consumer and commercial loans.” — Paul M.

Endnotes A We also measure net interest income on an FTE basis, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. FTE basis is a performance measure used in operating the business that management believes provides investors a more accurate picture of the interest margin for comparative purposes. We believe that this presentation allows for comparison of amounts from both taxable and tax-exempt sources, and is consistent with industry practices. Net interest income on an FTE basis was $12.0 billion, $11.8 billion and $11.4 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2018, June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, respectively. For reconciliation to GAAP financial measures, refer to pages 18-19 of this press release. The FTE adjustment was $151 million, $154 million and $240 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018, June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, respectively. B Global Markets revenue and net income, excluding net debit valuation adjustments (DVA), and sales and trading revenue, excluding net DVA, are non- GAAP financial measures. Net DVA losses were $99 million, $179 million and $21 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018, June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, respectively. FICC net DVA losses were $80 million, $184 million and $14 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018, June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, respectively. Equities net DVA gains (losses) were $(19) million, $5 million and $(7) million for the three months ended September 30, 2018, June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, respectively. C Return on average tangible common shareholders’ equity is a non-GAAP financial measure. For reconciliation to GAAP financial measures, see pages 18-19 of this press release. D Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) at September 30, 2018 is preliminary. Global Liquidity Sources (GLS) include cash and high-quality, liquid, unencumbered securities, limited to U.S. government securities, U.S. agency securities, U.S. agency MBS, and a select group of non-U.S. government and supranational securities, and are readily available to meet funding requirements as they arise. They do not include Federal Reserve Discount Window or Federal Home Loan Bank borrowing capacity. Transfers of liquidity among legal entities may be subject to certain regulatory and other restrictions. The LCR represents the consolidated average amount of high-quality liquid assets as a percentage of the prescribed average net cash outflows over a 30-calendar-day period of significant liquidity stress, under the U.S. LCR final rule. E Regulatory capital ratios at September 30, 2018 are preliminary. We report regulatory capital ratios under both the Standardized and Advanced approaches. The approach that yields the lower ratio is used to assess capital adequacy, which for CET1 is the Standardized approach at September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018 and the Advanced approaches at September 30, 2017. Basel 3 transition provisions for regulatory capital adjustments and deductions were fully phased-in as of January 1, 2018. Prior periods are presented on a fully phased-in basis. SLR requirements became effective January 1, 2018. 10

We believe the use of ratios that utilize tangible equity provides additional useful information because they present measures of those assets that can generate income. Tangible book value per share provides additional useful information about the level of tangible assets in relation to outstanding shares of common stock. See Reconciliations to GAAP Financial Measures on pages 18-19. (2) Includes non-U.S. credit card net charge-offs of $75 million for the nine months ended Q3-17. These net charge-offs represent net charge-offs of non-U.S. credit card loans, which were sold in the second quarter of 2017. (3) Ratios do not include loans accounted for under the fair value option. Charge-off ratios are annualized for the quarterly presentation. (4) Balances do not include past due consumer credit card loans, consumer loans secured by real estate where repayments are insured by the Federal Housing Administration and individually insured long-term stand-by agreements (fully insured home loans), and in general, other consumer and commercial loans not secured by real estate; purchased credit-impaired loans even though the customer may be contractually past due; and nonperforming loans held-for-sale or accounted for under the fair value option. (5) Regulatory capital ratios at September 30, 2018 are preliminary. Bank of America Corporation (the Corporation) reports regulatory capital ratios under both the Standardized and Advanced approaches. The approach that yields the lower ratio is used to assess capital adequacy, which for CET1 is the Standardized approach at September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018 and the Advanced approaches at September 30, 2017. Basel 3 transition provisions for regulatory capital adjustments and deductions were fully phased-in as of January 1, 2018. Prior periods are presented on a fully phased-in basis. (6) Tangible equity ratio equals period-end tangible shareholders’ equity divided by period-end tangible assets. Tangible common equity ratio equals period-end tangible common shareholders’ equity divided by period-end tangible assets. Tangible shareholders’ equity and tangible assets are non-GAAP financial measures. We believe the use of ratios that utilize tangible equity provides additional useful information because they present measures of those assets that can generate income. See Reconciliations to GAAP Financial Measures on pages 18-19. Current period information is preliminary and based on company data available at the time of the presentation.

18 Bank of America Corporation and Subsidiaries Reconciliations to GAAP Financial Measures (Dollars in millions) The Corporation evaluates its business based on a fully taxable-equivalent basis, a non-GAAP financial measure. Total revenue, net of interest expense, on a fully taxable-equivalent basis includes net interest income on a fully taxable-equivalent basis and noninterest income. The Corporation believes that this presentation allows for comparison of amounts from both taxable and tax- exempt sources and is consistent with industry practices. The Corporation presents related ratios and analyses (i.e., efficiency ratios and net interest yield) on a fully taxable-equivalent basis. To derive the fully taxable-equivalent basis, net interest income is adjusted to reflect tax-exempt income on an equivalent before-tax basis with a corresponding increase in income tax expense. For purposes of this calculation, the Corporation uses the federal statutory tax rate of 21 percent for the 2018 periods and 35 percent for all prior periods. The efficiency ratio measures the costs expended to generate a dollar of revenue, and net interest yield measures the basis points the Corporation earns over the cost of funds. The Corporation also evaluates its business based on the following ratios that utilize tangible equity, a non-GAAP financial measure. Tangible equity represents an adjusted shareholders’ equity or common shareholders’ equity amount which has been reduced by goodwill and intangible assets (excluding mortgage servicing rights), net of related deferred tax liabilities. Return on average tangible common shareholders’ equity measures the Corporation’s earnings contribution as a percentage of adjusted average common shareholders’ equity. The tangible common equity ratio represents adjusted ending common shareholders’ equity divided by total assets less goodwill and intangible assets (excluding mortgage servicing rights), net of related deferred tax liabilities. Return on average tangible shareholders’ equity measures the Corporation’s earnings contribution as a percentage of adjusted average total shareholders’ equity. The tangible equity ratio represents adjusted ending shareholders’ equity divided by total assets less goodwill and intangible assets (excluding mortgage servicing rights), net of related deferred tax liabilities. Tangible book value per common share represents adjusted ending common shareholders’ equity divided by ending common shares outstanding. These measures are used to evaluate the Corporation’s use of equity. In addition, profitability, relationship and investment models all use return on average tangible shareholders’ equity as key measures to support our overall growth goals. See the tables below and on page 19 for reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to financial measures defined by GAAP for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 and the three months ended September 30, 2018, June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017.
