NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES This report contains references to financial measures that are not defined in GAAP.

The Corporation’s management believes that investors may use these non- GAAP measures to analyze the Corporation’s financial performance without the impact of unusual items or events that may obscure trends in the Corporation’s underlying performance. This non-GAAP data should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, and is not a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. Limitations associated with non-GAAP financial measures include the risks that persons might disagree as to the appropriateness of items included in these measures and that different companies might calculate these measures differently. Non-GAAP measures reflected within the presentation include: Tangible common equity/tangible assets, Return on average tangible common equity, Net interest margin (fully tax equivalent basis), Efficiency ratio (fully tax equivalent) and Tangible book value per share. 2

LIQUIDITY PROFILE § At March 31, 2024, the total estimated uninsured deposits for CNB Bank were approximately $1.4 billion, or approximately 27.70% of total CNB Bank deposits. However, when excluding $101.1 million of affiliate company deposits and $437.9 million of pledged-investment collateralized deposits, the adjusted amount and percentage of total estimated uninsured deposits was approximately $884.6 million, or approximately 17.21% of total CNB Bank deposits as of March 31, 2024; § At March 31, 2024, the Corporation had $259.5 million of cash equivalents held in CNB Bank’s interest- bearing deposit account at the Federal Reserve. These excess funds, when combined with $3.6 billion in (i) available borrowing capacity from the Federal Home Bank of Pittsburgh ( FHLB ) and the Federal Reserve, and (ii) available unused commitments from brokered deposit sources and other third-party funding channels, including previously established lines of credit from correspondent banks, result in the total on-hand and contingent liquidity sources for the Corporation to be approximately 4.3 times the estimated amount of adjusted uninsured deposit balances discussed above; § At March 31, 2024, the Corporation had no outstanding short-term borrowings from the FHLB or the Federal Reserve's Discount Window. 14


LOOKING INTO 2024 § CNB Bank plans to continue its expansion in State College, PA, with the opening of a second full-service branch in 2024. § BankOnBuffalo plans to open another full-service branch in the Buffalo area before the end of the year and is expanding its presence in the Rochester, NY market with the expansion of itsloanproductionofficeintoa full- service branch. § ERIEBank is expanding its presence in the greater Cleveland metro with a newbranchlocationinWestlake, OH, which is scheduled to open this summer. § Impressia Bank will focus on opportunities across the Bank’s footprint to serve and empower women-owned small businesses and retail relationships. § Ridge View Bank broke ground on its regional headquarters in 2023 and has an expected completion date of the fourth quarter of 2024. 15


BANK ON WHEELS § The first of its kind operated by any financial institution in Western New York, BankOnWheels is a full-service, yet fully mobile bank branch, has enabled the bank to deliver essential banking services to communities with little or no access to such services today. § The BankOnWheels rotates between four locations in the cities of Buffalo and Niagara Falls, NY, with plans to serve additional locations in the future. 16


PARADE STREET § ERIEBank, a division of CNB Bank, is working with the East Side Renaissance team to help revitalize and redevelop a four-block corridor of Parade Street, in Erie, PA to better serve the needs of the community and draw more economic activity back to this neglected section of the city. § In February 2024, construction began on a new community banking office and financial education center § We aspire to be part of the neighborhood, not just a bank in the neighborhood, and have established a community advisory committee consisting of local stakeholders in collaboration with the bank. “Today marks a significant milestone for ERIEBank. We believe that access to reliable financial services and quality financial education is fundamental to empowering individuals and driving economic growth within our community. This endeavor not only demonstrates our commitment to serve the residents of Erie but also showcases our dedication to fostering financial literacy and economic prosperity,” said Katie Jones, President of ERIEBank. 17
