SunTrust Reports First Quarter 2019 Results

Improved Profitability and Strong Loan Growth Highlight 1Q Results

Planned Merger with BB&T On Track

ATLANTA -- For the first quarter of 2019, SunTrust Banks, Inc. (NYSE: STI) reported net income available to common shareholders of $554 million, or $1.24 per average common diluted share, which includes $(0.09) per share of merger-related costs associated with the Company's previously announced proposed merger with BB&T Corporation. This compares to $1.40 for the prior quarter and $1.29 for the first quarter of 2018.

“Our performance continues to improve and this quarter was no exception, with earnings per share increasing by 3% year-over-year (excluding merger-related costs). Loan growth remains a bright spot, with average balances up 3% sequentially and 8% year-over-year, a reflection of the ongoing investments in our business and our clients’ optimistic outlook on the economy,” said William H. Rogers, Jr., chairman and CEO of SunTrust Banks, Inc. “More importantly, while our results this quarter highlight SunTrust’s individual strength, we know that after merging with BB&T, we will be even better positioned to enhance shareholder value, improve the client experience, and invest in our teammates, associates, and communities.”

FirstQuarter2019Financial Highlights

(Commentary is on a fully taxable-equivalent basis unless otherwise noted. Consistent with SEC guidance in Industry Guide 3 that contemplates the calculation of tax-exempt income on a tax equivalent basis, net interest income, net interest margin, total revenue, and efficiency ratios are provided on a fully taxable-equivalent basis, which generally assumes a 21% marginal federal tax rate as well as state income taxes, where applicable. We provide unadjusted amounts in the table on page 3 of this news release and detailed reconciliations and additional information in Appendix A on pages 21 and 22.)

Income Statement

• Net income available to common shareholders was $554 million, or $1.24 per average common diluted share, compared to $1.40 for the prior quarter and $1.29 for the first quarter of 2018.

◦ The first quarter of 2019 included $45 million, or $(0.09) per average common share of merger-related costs, comprised primarily of M&A advisory fees and legal costs associated with the Company's previously announced proposed merger with BB&T Corporation.

◦ The prior quarter included a $(0.10) per share discrete charge associated with the settlement of a legacy pension plan.

• Total revenue was down 2% sequentially and up 4% year-over-year. The sequential decrease was driven primarily by lower noninterest income, while the year-over-year increase was driven by higher net interest income.

• Net interest margin was 3.27% in the current quarter, stable sequentially and up 3 basis points compared to the prior year quarter. The year-over-year increase was driven primarily by higher benchmark interest rates in addition to positive mix shift in the loans held for investment (“LHFI”) portfolio, offset partially by higher funding costs.

• Provision for credit losses increased $66 million sequentially and $125 million year-over-year, driven by strong loan growth and a stable allowance for loan and lease losses (“ALLL”) to period-end LHFI ratio (compared to declines in prior quarters).

• Noninterest expense increased $7 million sequentially and $72 million year-over-year. The current quarter included $45 million of aforementioned merger-related costs. The prior quarter included a $60 million pre-tax pension plan settlement charge. Excluding these discrete items, noninterest expense increased $22 million sequentially and $27 million year-over-year.

• The efficiency and tangible efficiency ratios for the current quarter were 63.4% and 62.7%, respectively, which were unfavorably impacted by the $45 million of merger-related costs. Excluding these costs, the adjusted tangible efficiency ratio was 60.8% for the current quarter, compared to 58.6% for the prior quarter and 62.1% for the prior year quarter.

Balance Sheet

• Average performing LHFI was up 3% compared to the prior quarter and up 8% year-over-year, driven by growth across most loan categories.

• Average consumer and commercial deposits decreased 1% compared to the prior quarter and remained relatively stable year-over-year, driven primarily by declines in money market accounts and demand deposits, offset largely by growth in NOW accounts and time deposits.

Capital

• Estimated capital ratios continue to be well above regulatory requirements. The Common Equity Tier 1 (“CET1”) ratio was estimated to be 9.1% as of March 31, 2019, lower than the prior quarter due primarily to loan growth.

• During the quarter, the Company repurchased $250 million of its outstanding common stock. The Company does not expect to utilize the $500 million remaining share repurchase authorization available under its 2018 Capital Plan in view of the proposed merger.

• Book value per common share was $51.15 and tangible book value per common share was $37.22, up 3% and 4%, respectively, from December 31, 2018, driven primarily by growth in retained earnings and a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss.

2

Asset Quality

• Nonperforming loans (“NPLs”) decreased $4 million from the prior quarter and represented 0.34% of period-end LHFI at March 31, 2019, compared to 0.35% of period-end LHFI at December 31, 2018.

• Net charge-offs for the current quarter were $97 million, or 0.26% of total average LHFI on an annualized basis, compared to 0.26% during the prior quarter and 0.22% during the first quarter of 2018.

• At March 31, 2019, the ALLL to period-end LHFI ratio was 1.06%, stable compared to the prior quarter.

• Provision for credit losses increased $66 million sequentially and $125 million year-over-year, driven by strong loan growth and a stable ALLL to period-end LHFI ratio (compared to declines in prior quarters).

Consolidated Financial Performance Details

(Commentary is on a fully taxable-equivalent basis unless otherwise noted)

Revenue

Total revenue was $2.4 billion for the current quarter, a decrease of $37 million, or 2%, compared to the prior quarter, driven by lower noninterest income. Noninterest income decreased $34 million sequentially due largely to lower commercial real estate-related income, investment banking income, and client transaction-related fees, offset partially by higher trading income and mortgage-related income. Compared to the first quarter of 2018, total revenue increased $94 million, or 4%, driven by a $106 million increase in net interest income as a result of net interest margin expansion and strong growth in average earning assets, offset partially by lower noninterest income.

3

Net Interest Income

Net interest income was $1.6 billion for the first quarter of 2019, a decrease of $3 million compared to the prior quarter due primarily to fewer days during the current quarter, largely offset by strong loan growth. The $106 million increase relative to the prior year was driven by a 3 basis point expansion in the net interest margin and 6% growth in average earning assets.

Net interest margin for the current quarter was 3.27%, which was stable compared to the prior quarter and 3 basis points higher than the prior year. The year-over-year increase was driven primarily by higher earning asset yields, offset partially by higher funding costs.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income was $784 million for the current quarter, compared to $818 million for the prior quarter and $796 million for the first quarter of 2018. The $34 million sequential decrease was due largely to lower commercial real estate-related income, investment banking income, and client transaction-related fees, offset partially by higher trading income and mortgage-related income. Compared to the prior year, noninterest income decreased $12 million driven primarily by lower other noninterest income, wealth-related income, and client transaction-related fees, offset partially by higher capital markets and mortgage-related income.

Client transaction-related fees (namely service charges on deposits, other charges and fees, and card fees) decreased $15 million sequentially and $6 million year-over-year due primarily to lower client transaction activity. The sequential decrease was also driven by fewer days during the current quarter.

Investment banking income was $130 million for the current quarter, compared to $146 million in the prior quarter and $133 million for the first quarter of 2018. The $16 million sequential decrease was due to lower syndicated finance and M&A activity.

Trading income was $60 million for the current quarter, compared to $24 million in the prior quarter and $42 million in the prior year. The $36 million sequential and $18 million year-over-year increases were due primarily to positive changes in mark-to-market valuations on corporate bond inventory in the current quarter in addition to increased client activity.

Mortgage-related income for the current quarter was $100 million, compared to $85 million for the prior quarter and $90 million for the first quarter of 2018. The $15 million sequential and $10 million year-over-year increases were driven primarily by higher servicing-related income attributable to favorable net hedge performance and lower decay. The year-over-year increase was also favorably impacted by higher core servicing fees. At March 31, 2019, the servicing portfolio totaled $169.3 billion, relatively stable compared to the prior quarter and a 3% increase year-over-year due to MSRs purchased in the first and third quarters of 2018.

Trust and investment management income was $71 million for the current quarter, compared to $74 million for the prior quarter and $75 million for the prior year quarter. The $3 million sequential and the $4 million year-over-year decreases were due primarily to lower fees arising from adverse market conditions, which led to reduced assets under management at the end of the fourth quarter of 2018.

Retail investment services income was $69 million for the current quarter, compared to $74 million for the prior quarter and $72 million for the prior year quarter. The $5 million sequential and $3 million year-over-year decreases were due primarily to reduced client transaction activity and adverse market conditions, which led to reduced assets under management at the end of the fourth quarter of 2018.

Commercial real estate-related income was $24 million for the current quarter, compared to $68 million for the prior quarter and $23 million for the prior year. The sequential decrease was driven primarily by seasonal declines in structured real estate, SunTrust Community Capital (tax credit-related income), and the Company's agency lending business.

4

Other noninterest income was $24 million for the current quarter, compared to $26 million in the prior quarter and $48 million in the first quarter of 2018. The $24 million year-over-year decrease was due primarily to a $23 million remeasurement gain on an equity investment in a fintech company during the first quarter of 2018.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense was $1.5 billion in the current quarter, up$7 million sequentially and $72 million compared to the first quarter of 2018. The current quarter included $45 million in aforementioned merger-related costs. The prior quarter included a $60 million pre-tax pension plan settlement charge. Excluding these discrete items, noninterest expense increased $22 million sequentially and $27 million year-over-year. The sequential increase was driven primarily by seasonal increases in employee compensation and benefits, partially offset by lower operating losses. The year-over-year increase was driven by higher outside processing and software costs, offset partially by lower employee compensation and benefits and regulatory assessments.

Employee compensation and benefits expense was $824 million in the current quarter, compared to $857 million in the prior quarter and $853 million in the first quarter of 2018. The $33 million sequential decrease was driven primarily by the $60 million legacy pension plan settlement charge recognized in the fourth quarter of 2018, offset partially by the seasonal increase in employee benefit costs and FICA taxes. The $29 million year-over-year decrease was primarily driven by lower contract labor costs in the current quarter.

Outside processing and software expense was $238 million in the current quarter, compared to $242 million in the prior quarter and $206 million in the first quarter of 2018. The $32 million year-over-year increase was driven primarily by higher software-related costs resulting from the amortization of new and upgraded technology assets.

Net occupancy expense was $102 million in the current quarter, stable compared to the prior quarter and $8 million higher than the first quarter of 2018. The year-over-year increase was driven primarily by higher rent expense and the absence of amortization of deferred gains on sale leaseback transactions following the adoption of the lease accounting standard during the first quarter of 2019.

Merger-related costs totaled $45 million for the current quarter. This represents a new income statement line item introduced to capture merger-related expenses associated with the Company's proposed merger with BB&T Corporation as announced on February 7, 2019. The current quarter costs were driven by M&A advisory fees and legal costs.

Marketing and customer development expense was $41 million in the current quarter, compared to $49 million in the prior quarter and $41 million in the first quarter of 2018. The $8 million sequential decrease was driven by normal seasonality in advertising and client development costs.

Operating losses were $22 million in the current quarter, compared to $39 million in the prior quarter and $6 million in the first quarter of 2018. The sequential decrease was driven primarily by higher legal and fraud-related costs recognized during the fourth quarter of 2018. The year-over-year increase was driven primarily by a $10 million net benefit from the progression of certain legal matters during the first quarter of 2018.

Regulatory assessments expense was $19 million in the current quarter, compared to $7 million in the prior quarter and $41 million in the prior year. The sequential increase was driven primarily by a $9 million regulatory assessment credit recognized during the fourth quarter of 2018. The year-over-year decrease was driven by the cessation of the FDIC Deposit Insurance Fund surcharge in the fourth quarter of 2018.

Other noninterest expense was $141 million in the current quarter, compared to $122 million in the prior quarter and $121 million in the first quarter of 2018. The $19 million sequential and $20 million year-over-year increases were driven primarily by higher branch closure-related costs.

5

Income Taxes

For the first quarter of 2019, the Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $104 million compared to $136 million for the prior quarter and $147 million for the first quarter of 2018. The effective tax rate for the current quarter was 15%, compared to 17% in the prior quarter and 19% in the first quarter of 2018. The first quarter of 2019 included $17 million of discrete tax benefits primarily related to the typical seasonal impact from stock-based compensation.

Balance Sheet

At March 31, 2019, the Company had total assets of $220.4 billion and total shareholders’ equity of $24.8 billion, representing 11% of total assets. Book value per common share was $51.15 and tangible book value per common share was $37.22, up 3% and 4%, respectively, compared to December 31, 2018, driven primarily by growth in retained earnings and a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss.

Loans and Deposits

Average performing LHFI totaled $153.7 billion for the current quarter, up 3% compared to the prior quarter and up 8% compared to the prior year driven by broad-based growth across most loan categories, with the exception of commercial construction, residential home equity products, and residential construction.

Average consumer and commercial deposits totaled $159.9 billion for the current quarter, down 1% compared to the prior quarter and relatively stable compared to the first quarter of 2018. These sequential and year-over-year changes were driven by declines in money market accounts and demand deposits, offset by growth in NOW accounts and time deposits.

Capital and Liquidity

The Company’s estimated capital ratios were well above current regulatory requirements with the Common Equity Tier 1 ratio estimated to be 9.1% at March 31, 2019. The ratios of average total equity to average total assets and tangible common equity to tangible assets were 11.3% and 7.7%, respectively, at March 31, 2019. The Company continues to have substantial available liquidity in the form of cash, high-quality government-backed or government-sponsored securities, and other available contingency funding sources.

The Company declared a common stock dividend of $0.50 per common share and repurchased $250 million of its outstanding common stock in the first quarter of 2019. The Company does not expect to utilize the $500 million remaining share repurchase authorization available under its 2018 Capital Plan in view of the proposed merger with BB&T Corporation.

Asset Quality

Overall asset quality performance continues to be strong. Nonperforming assets ("NPAs") totaled $648 million at March 31, 2019, up $59 million from the prior quarter and down $130 million year-over-year. The ratio of NPLs to period-end LHFI was 0.34%, 0.35%, and 0.50% at March 31, 2019, December 31, 2018, and March 31, 2018, respectively. The year-over-year decrease was driven primarily by lower residential mortgage nonperforming loans due to loans transitioning from non-accruing (as a result of forbearance relief provided after hurricanes) back to accruing status. 

Net charge-offs totaled $97 million during the current quarter, stable compared to the prior quarter and an increase of $18 million compared to the first quarter of 2018. The ratio of annualized net charge-offs to total average LHFI was 0.26% during the current quarter, compared to 0.26% during the prior quarter and 0.22% during the prior year quarter.

The provision for credit losses was $153 million in the current quarter, an increase of $66 million sequentially and $125 million year-over-year, driven by strong loan growth and a stable ALLL to period-end LHFI ratio (compared to declines in prior quarters). At March 31, 2019, the ALLL was $1.6 billion, which represented 1.06% of period-end loans, stable relative to December 31, 2018 and a 13 basis point decline relative to March 31, 2018, driven by continued improvements in asset quality.

Early stage delinquencies decreased 9 basis points from the prior quarter and 4 basis points from March 31, 2018 to 0.64% at March 31, 2019. Excluding government-guaranteed loans, early stage delinquencies were 0.21%, down 6 basis points compared to the prior quarter and down 1 basis point compared to the first quarter of 2018.

In the current quarter, the Company transferred $465 million of accruing residential troubled debt restructured ("TDR") loans from LHFI to loans held for sale ("LHFS"), in anticipation of a sale in the second quarter of 2019. This resulted in a transfer of $31 million of the associated allowance transferring into the carrying value in LHFS. This transaction had no impact on the provision for loan losses in the first quarter.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This news release includes non-GAAP financial measures to describe SunTrust’s performance. Additional information and reconciliations of those measures to GAAP measures are provided in the appendix to this news release beginning at page 21.

In this news release, consistent with SEC Industry Guide 3, the Company presents total revenue, net interest income, net interest margin, and efficiency ratios on a fully taxable equivalent (“FTE”) basis, and ratios on an annualized basis. The FTE basis adjusts for the tax-favored status of net interest income from certain loans and investments using a federal tax rate of 21%, as well as state income taxes, where applicable, to increase tax-exempt interest income to a taxable-equivalent basis. The Company believes this measure to be the preferred industry measurement of net interest income and it enhances comparability of net interest income arising from taxable and tax-exempt sources. Total revenue-FTE equals net interest income-FTE plus noninterest income.

The Company presents the following additional non-GAAP measures because many investors find them useful. Specifically:

• The Company presents certain capital information on a tangible basis, including Tangible equity, Tangible common equity, the ratio of Tangible equity to tangible assets, the ratio of Tangible common equity to tangible assets, Tangible book value per share, and the Return on tangible common shareholders’ equity, which removes the after-tax impact of purchase accounting intangible assets from shareholders' equity and removes related intangible asset amortization from Net income available to common shareholders. The Company believes these measures are useful to investors because, by removing the amount of intangible assets that results from merger and acquisition activity and amortization expense (the level of which may vary from company to company), they allow investors to more easily compare the Company’s capital position and return on average tangible common shareholders' equity to other companies in the industry who present similar measures. The Company also believes that removing these items provides a more relevant measure of the return on the Company's common shareholders' equity. These measures are utilized by management to assess capital adequacy and profitability of the Company.

• Similarly, the Company presents Efficiency ratio-FTE, Tangible efficiency ratio-FTE, and Adjusted tangible efficiency ratio-FTE. The efficiency ratio is computed by dividing Noninterest expense by Total revenue. Efficiency ratio-FTE is computed by dividing Noninterest expense by Total revenue-FTE. Tangible efficiency ratio-FTE excludes the amortization related to intangible assets and certain tax credits. The Company believes this measure is useful to investors because, by removing the impact of amortization (the level of which may vary from company to company), it allows investors to more easily compare the Company’s efficiency to other companies in the industry. Adjusted tangible efficiency ratio-FTE removes the pre-tax impact of merger-related costs recognized in the first quarter of 2019 as well as the pre-tax impact of the legacy pension plan settlement charge recognized in the fourth quarter of 2018 from the calculation of Tangible efficiency ratio-FTE. See slide 21 in the earnings presentation (Exhibit 99.2) as well as Appendix A in this news release for more details on these items. The Company believes this measure (adjusted tangible efficiency ratio-FTE) is useful to investors because it is more reflective of normalized operations as it reflects results that are primarily client relationship and client transaction driven. This measure is utilized by management to assess the efficiency of the Company and its lines of business.

¹ Certain amounts in this schedule are presented net of applicable income taxes, calculated based on each subsidiary’s federal and state tax rates and are adjusted for any permanent differences.

² The Company presents Net interest income-FTE, Total revenue-FTE, Net interest margin-FTE, Efficiency ratio-FTE, Tangible efficiency ratio-FTE, and Adjusted tangible efficiency ratio-FTE on a fully taxable-equivalent (“FTE”) basis. The FTE basis adjusts for the tax-favored status of Net interest income from certain loans and investments using a federal tax rate of 21%, as well as state income taxes where applicable to increase tax-exempt interest income to a taxable-equivalent basis. The Company believes this measure to be the preferred industry measurement of Net interest income and it enhances comparability of Net interest income arising from taxable and tax-exempt sources. Total revenue-FTE equals Net interest income-FTE plus Noninterest income.

³ The Company presents Return on average tangible common shareholders' equity, which removes the after-tax impact of purchase accounting intangible assets from average common shareholders' equity and removes related intangible asset amortization from Net income available to common shareholders. The Company believes this measure is useful to investors because, by removing the amount of intangible assets and related pre-tax amortization expense (the level of which may vary from company to company), it allows investors to more easily compare the Company’s return on average common shareholders' equity to other companies in the industry. The Company also believes that removing these items provides a more relevant measure of the return on the Company's common shareholders' equity. This measure is utilized by management to assess the profitability of the Company.

⁴ Efficiency ratio is computed by dividing Noninterest expense by Total revenue. Efficiency ratio-FTE is computed by dividing Noninterest expense by Total revenue-FTE.

⁵ The Company presents Tangible efficiency ratio-FTE and Adjusted tangible efficiency ratio-FTE, which remove the amortization related to intangible assets and certain tax credits from the calculation of Efficiency ratio-FTE. The Company believes these measures are useful to investors because, by removing the impact of amortization (the level of which may vary from company to company), it allows investors to more easily compare the Company’s efficiency to other companies in the industry. These measures are utilized by management to assess the efficiency of the Company and its lines of business.

⁶ The Company presents Adjusted tangible efficiency ratio-FTE, which removes the $45 million pre-tax impact of merger-related costs recognized in the first quarter of 2019 as well as the $60 million pre-tax impact of the legacy National Commerce Financial Corporation ("NCF") pension plan settlement charge recognized in the fourth quarter of 2018 from the calculation of Tangible efficiency ratio-FTE. The Company believes this measure is useful to investors because it is more reflective of normalized operations as it reflects results that are primarily client relationship and client transaction driven. Removing these items also allows investors to more easily compare the Company's tangible efficiency to other companies in the industry that may not have had similar items impacting their results. Additional detail on the Company's merger agreement with BB&T Corporation and the NCF pension plan settlement charge can be found in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

¹ Certain amounts in this schedule are presented net of applicable income taxes, calculated based on each subsidiary’s federal and state tax rates and are adjusted for any permanent differences.

² The Company presents certain capital information on a tangible basis, including Tangible equity, Tangible common equity, the ratio of Tangible equity to tangible assets, and the ratio of Tangible common equity to tangible assets, which remove the after-tax impact of purchase accounting intangible assets from shareholders' equity. The Company believes these measures are useful to investors because, by removing the amount of intangible assets that result from merger and acquisition activity (the level of which may vary from company to company), it allows investors to more easily compare the Company’s capital adequacy to other companies in the industry. These measures are used by management to analyze capital adequacy and these measures are more consistent with regulatory capital definitions and calculations.

³ The Company presents Tangible book value per common share, which excludes the after-tax impact of purchase accounting intangible assets and also excludes Noncontrolling interest and Preferred stock from shareholders' equity. The Company believes this measure is useful to investors because, by removing the amount of intangible assets, noncontrolling interest, and preferred stock (the levels of which may vary from company to company), it allows investors to more easily compare the Company’s book value of common stock to other companies in the industry.

1Q 19 EARNINGS PRESENTATION April 18, 2019 © 2019 SunTrust Banks, Inc. SunTrust is a federally registered trademark of SunTrust Banks, Inc.

IMPORTANT CAUTIONARY STATEMENT This presentation should be read in conjunction with the financial statements, notes and other information contained in the Company’s 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and Current Reports on Form 8-K. Non-GAAP Financial Measures This presentation includes non-GAAP financial measures to describe SunTrust’s performance. The reconciliations of those measures to GAAP measures are provided within or in the appendix of this presentation beginning on slide 21. In this presentation, consistent with Securities and Exchange Commission Industry Guide 3, the Company presents total revenue, net interest income, net interest margin, and efficiency ratios on a fully taxable equivalent (“FTE”) and annualized basis. The FTE basis adjusts for the tax-favored status of net interest income from certain loans and investments using applicable federal and state income tax rates to increase tax-exempt interest income to a taxable-equivalent basis. The Company believes this measure to be the preferred industry measurement of net interest income, and it enhances comparability of net interest income arising from taxable and tax-exempt sources. Total revenue-FTE equals net interest income-FTE plus noninterest income. The Company presents the following additional non-GAAP measures because many investors find them useful. Specifically: • The Company presents certain capital information on a tangible basis, including tangible equity, tangible common equity, tangible book value per share, and return on average tangible common equity. These measures exclude the after-tax impact of purchase accounting intangible assets. The Company believes these measures are useful to investors because, by removing the effect of intangible assets that results from merger and acquisition activity (the level of which may vary from company to company), it allows investors to more easily compare the Company’s capital adequacy to other companies in the industry. These measures are used by management to analyze the capital adequacy and profitability of the Company. • Similarly, the Company presents Efficiency ratio-FTE, Tangible efficiency ratio-FTE, Adjusted efficiency ratio-FTE and Adjusted tangible efficiency ratio-FTE. The efficiency ratio is computed by dividing Noninterest expense by Total revenue. Efficiency ratio-FTE is computed by dividing Noninterest expense by Total revenue-FTE. Tangible efficiency ratio-FTE excludes the amortization related to intangible assets and certain tax credits. The Company believes this measure is useful to investors because, by removing the impact of amortization (the level of which may vary from company to company), it allows investors to more easily compare the Company’s efficiency to other companies in the industry. Adjusted efficiency ratio-FTE and adjusted tangible efficiency ratio-FTE remove the pre-tax impact of Form 8-K items announced on December 4, 2017 and the impacts of tax reform-related items or other income or expense items that are material and potentially non-recurring from the calculation of Efficiency ratio-FTE and Tangible efficiency ratio-FTE, respectively. The Company believes these measures are useful to investors because they are more reflective of normalized operations as they reflect results that are primarily client relationship and client transaction driven. These measures are utilized by management to assess the efficiency of the Company and its lines of business. • The Company presents the Basel III Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) ratio, on a fully phased-in basis on slide 15. For December 31, 2017 and prior, fully-phased-in ratios considered a 250% risk-weighting for MSRs and deduction from capital of certain carryforward DTAs, the overfunded pension asset, and other intangible assets. For March 31, 2018 and later, the fully-phased-in ratio considers a 250% risk-weighting for MSRs, as contemplated in the FRB’s ‘Simplifications’ NPR. The Company believes this measure is useful to investors who wish to understand the impact of potential future regulatory requirements. Important Cautionary Note about Forward-Looking Statements This presentation contains forward-looking statements. Statements regarding (i) future levels of net interest margin, merger-related costs, effective income tax rates, efficiency ratios (including after the proposed merger with BB&T), net charge-off ratio, ALLL ratio, deposit mix shift, deposit costs, and capital ratios, (ii) the income statement impact of the sale of certain TDR portfolios in April 2019, (iii) the benefits and effects of our proposed merger with BB&T, including the future earnings potential of the combined company, the cost synergies to be achieved, the capacity to invest in technology, talent and innovation, and the combined company’s culture, (iv) the financial performance of SunTrust in 2019, (v) growth opportunities in our Wholesale segment, (vi) the benefits of various technology implementations, (vii) the optimism of clients about the economy and their commitments to making ongoing investments, (viii) the future growth, success and market share of our investment banking business and (ix) and potential preferred stock issuances, are forward- looking statements. Also, any statement that does not describe historical or current facts is a forward-looking statement. These statements often include the words “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends,” “forecast”, “goals”, “plans,” “targets,” “initiatives,” “opportunity,” “focus”, “potentially,” “probably,” “projects,” “outlook,” or similar expressions or future conditional verbs such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “would,” and “could". Forward-looking statements are based on the current beliefs and expectations of management and on information currently available to management.

Forward-looking statements are subject to significant risks and uncertainties. Investors are cautioned against placing undue reliance on such statements. Actual results may differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements can be found in Part I, Item 1A., “Risk Factors,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 and in other periodic reports that we file with the SEC. Those factors include: failure to complete the merger with BB&T (the “Merger”) could negatively impact our stock price and our future business and financial results; we will be subject to uncertainties while the Merger is pending, which could adversely affect our business; the Merger Agreement may be terminated in accordance with its terms and the Merger may not be completed; because the market price of BB&T Common Stock may fluctuate, our shareholders cannot be certain of the precise value of the merger consideration they may receive in the Merger; our ability to complete the Merger is subject to the receipt of approval from various federal and state regulatory agencies, which may impose conditions that could adversely affect us or cause the Merger to be abandoned; shareholder litigation could prevent or delay the closing of the proposed Merger or otherwise negatively impact our business and operations; current or future legislation or regulation could require us to change our business practices, reduce revenue, impose additional costs, or otherwise adversely affect business operations or competitiveness; we are subject to stringent capital adequacy and liquidity requirements and our failure to meet these would adversely affect our financial condition; the monetary and fiscal policies of the federal government and its agencies could have a material adverse effect on our earnings; our financial results have been, and may continue to be, materially affected by general economic conditions, and a deterioration of economic conditions or of the financial markets may materially adversely affect our lending activity and other businesses, as well as our financial condition and results; changes in market interest rates or capital markets could adversely affect our revenue and expenses, the value of assets and obligations, as well as the availability and cost of capital and liquidity; interest rates on our outstanding and future financial instruments might be subject to change based on regulatory developments, which could adversely affect our revenue, expenses, and the value of those financial instruments; our earnings may be affected by volatility in mortgage production and servicing revenues, and by changes in carrying values of our servicing assets and mortgages held for sale due to changes in interest rates; disruptions in our ability to access global capital markets and other sources of wholesale funding may adversely affect our capital resources and liquidity; we are subject to credit risk; we may have more credit risk and higher credit losses to the extent that our loans are concentrated by loan type, industry segment, borrower type, or location of the borrower or collateral; we rely on the mortgage secondary market and GSEs for some of our liquidity; loss of customer deposits could increase our funding costs; any reduction in our credit rating could increase the cost of our funding from the capital markets; we are subject to litigation, and our expenses related to this litigation may adversely affect our results; we may incur fines, penalties and other negative consequences from regulatory violations, possibly even inadvertent or unintentional violations; we are subject to certain risks related to originating and selling mortgages and may be required to repurchase mortgage loans or indemnify mortgage loan purchasers as a result of breaches of representations and warranties, or borrower fraud, and this could harm our liquidity, results of operations, and financial condition; we face risks as a servicer of loans; consumers and small businesses may decide not to use banks to complete their financial transactions, which could affect our revenue; we have businesses other than banking which subject us to a variety of risks; negative public opinion could damage our reputation and adversely impact business and revenues; we may face more intense scrutiny of our sales, training, and incentive compensation practices; we rely on other companies to provide key components of our business infrastructure; competition in the financial services industry is intense and we could lose business or suffer margin declines as a result; we continually encounter technological change and must effectively develop and implement new technology; maintaining or increasing market share depends on market acceptance and regulatory approval of new products and services; we have in the past and may in the future pursue acquisitions, which could affect costs and from which we may not be able to realize anticipated benefits; we depend on the expertise of key personnel, and if these individuals leave or change their roles without effective replacements, operations may suffer; we may not be able to hire or retain additional qualified personnel and recruiting and compensation costs may increase as a result of changes in the marketplace, both of which may increase costs and reduce profitability and may adversely impact our ability to implement our business strategies; our framework for managing risks may not be effective in mitigating risk and loss to us; our controls and procedures may not prevent or detect all errors or acts of fraud; we are at risk of increased losses from fraud; our operational or communications systems or infrastructure may fail or may be the subject of a breach or cyber-attack that, if successful, could adversely affect our business or disrupt business continuity; a disruption, breach, or failure in the operational systems or infrastructure of our third party vendors or other service providers, including as a result of cyber-attacks, could adversely affect our business; natural disasters and other catastrophic events could have a material adverse impact on our operations or our financial condition and results; the soundness of other financial institutions could adversely affect us; we depend on the accuracy and completeness of information about clients and counterparties; our accounting policies and processes are critical to how we report our financial condition and results of operation, and they require management to make estimates about matters that are uncertain; depressed market values for our stock and adverse economic conditions sustained over a period of time may require us to write down all or some portion of our goodwill; our stock price can be volatile; we might not pay dividends on our stock; our ability to receive dividends from our subsidiaries or other investments could affect our liquidity and ability to pay dividends; and certain banking laws and certain provisions of our articles of incorporation may have an anti-takeover effect. 2
