PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is based on the historical financial statements of Valley National Bancorp (“Valley”) and USAmeriBancorp, Inc. (“USAB”) and has been prepared to illustrate the financial effect of the merger of USAB with and into Valley. The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information combines the historical consolidated financial position and results of operations of Valley and its subsidiaries and USAB and its subsidiaries, as an acquisition by Valley of USAB using the acquisition method of accounting and giving effect to the related pro forma adjustments described in the accompanying notes. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the assets and liabilities of USAB are recorded by Valley at their respective fair values as of the date the merger is completed. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet gives effect to the transaction as if the transaction had occurred on December 31, 2017. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined income statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 give effect to the transaction as if the transaction had become effective at January 1, 2017.

These unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements reflect the merger of USAB with and into Valley based upon estimated preliminary acquisition accounting adjustments. Actual adjustments will be made as of the effective date of the merger and, therefore, may differ from those reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. The fair values are estimates as of the date hereof and actual amounts are still in the process of being finalized. Fair values are subject to refinement for up to one year after the closing date as additional information regarding the closing date fair values becomes available.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements included herein are presented for informational purposes only and do not necessarily reflect the financial results of the combined company had the companies actually been combined at the beginning of the period presented. The adjustments included in these unaudited pro forma condensed financial statements are preliminary and may be revised. This information also does not reflect the benefits of the expected cost savings and expense efficiencies, opportunities to earn additional revenue, potential impacts of current market conditions on revenues, or asset dispositions, among other factors, and includes various preliminary estimates and may not necessarily be indicative of the financial position or results of operations that would have occurred if the merger had been consummated on the date or at the beginning of the period indicated or which may be attained in the future.
