ThirdQuarter2019Financial 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 22 and 23.)

Income Statement

• Net income available to common shareholders was $597 million, or $1.34 per average common diluted share, compared to $1.48 for the prior quarter and $1.56 for the third quarter of 2018.

◦ Merger-related costs were $22 million in the third quarter of 2019, compared to $8 million in the second quarter of 2019. In addition to these costs, there were $11 million and $6 million of other merger-related expenses in the current and prior quarter, respectively, the majority of which were recorded in ‘other noninterest expense’. Combined, the current quarter results included $33 million, or $(0.06) per share, of merger-related impacts.

• Total revenue was down 8% sequentially and up 3% year-over-year. Excluding the $5 million and $205 millioninsurance settlement benefits related to financial crisis-era related claims recognized in the current and prior quarters, respectively, total revenue was stable sequentially and increased 2% year-over-year driven by higher noninterest income.

• Net interest margin was 3.06% in the current quarter, reflecting declines of 10 and 21 basis points sequentially and year-over-year, respectively, driven primarily by declines in short-term and long-term interest rates (which negatively impacted earning asset yields). The year-over-year decline was also impacted by higher funding costs.

• Provision for credit losses increased $5 million sequentially and $71 million year-over-year. The year-over-year increase reflects both higher net charge-offs in the current quarter and a release of loan loss reserves in the prior year quarter.

• Noninterest expense decreased $164 million sequentially and increased $90 million year-over-year. Excluding the $205 million charitable contribution to the SunTrust Foundation in the prior quarter and the merger-related impacts of $33 million in the current quarter and $14 million in the prior quarter, noninterest expense increased $22 million sequentially and $57 million year-over-year due primarily to higher employee compensation and benefits.

• The efficiency and tangible efficiency ratios for the current quarter were 62.1% and 61.2%, respectively. Excluding the charitable contribution in the prior quarter together with the insurance settlements and merger-related impacts in the current and prior quarter, the adjusted tangible efficiency ratio was 59.9% for the current quarter, compared to 59.0% for the prior quarter and 58.9% for the prior year.

Balance Sheet

• Average performing loans held for investment (“LHFI”) was up 1% compared to the prior quarter and up 8% year-over-year, driven primarily by growth in CRE, consumer direct, consumer indirect, and residential mortgages, offset partially by declines in commercial construction loans and residential home equity products. The year-over-year increase was also positively impacted by 8% growth in C&I loans.

• Average consumer and commercial deposits increased 2% compared to both the prior quarter and the prior year. Sequential growth was driven primarily by increases in NOW accounts, money market accounts, and time deposits. Year-over-year growth was driven by increases in NOW accounts and time deposits, offset partially by declines in demand deposits and money market accounts.

Capital

• Estimated capital ratios continue to be well above regulatory requirements. The Common Equity Tier 1 (“CET1”) ratio was estimated to be 9.3% as of September 30, 2019, slightly higher relative to the prior quarter.

• Book value per common share was $54.87 and tangible book value per common share was $40.58, both up 3% from June 30, 2019, driven primarily by growth in retained earnings and a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss.

2

Asset Quality

• Nonperforming loans (“NPLs”) increased $64 million from the prior quarter and represented 0.38% of period-end LHFI at September 30, 2019, compared to 0.34% of period-end LHFI at June 30, 2019.

• Net charge-offs for the current quarter were $112 million, or 0.28% of total average LHFI on an annualized basis, compared to 0.22% during the prior quarter and 0.24% during the third quarter of 2018.

• At September 30, 2019, the allowance for loan and lease losses (“ALLL”) to period-end LHFI ratio was 1.07%, stable compared to the prior quarter and down 3 basis points relative to the prior year quarter.

• Provision for credit losses increased $5 million sequentially and $71 million year-over-year. The sequential increase was driven primarily by higher net charge-offs. The year-over-year increase reflects both higher net charge-offs in the current quarter and a release of loan loss reserves in the prior year quarter.

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 8% compared to the prior quarter and an increase of 3% from the prior year. Excluding the $5 million and $205 millioninsurance settlement benefits related to financial crisis-era related claims recognized in the current quarter and prior quarter, respectively, total revenue was stable sequentially and increased 2% year-over-year driven by higher noninterest income.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income was $1.5 billion for the third quarter of 2019, a decrease of $25 million compared to the prior quarter due primarily to lower earning asset yields, which drove a decline in the net interest margin, partially offset by a $1.4 billion, or 1%, increase in average performing LHFI. Net interest income was stable relative to the prior year as the decline in the net interest margin was offset by 8% growth in average performing LHFI and 2% growth in average client deposits.

Net interest margin for the current quarter was 3.06%, compared to 3.16% and 3.27% in the prior quarter and prior year, respectively, driven primarily by declines in short-term and long-term interest rates (which negatively impacted earning asset yields). The year-over-year decline was also impacted by higher funding costs.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, net interest income was $4.7 billion, a $150 million, or 3%, increase compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The net interest margin was 3.16% for the first nine months of 2019, a 10 basis point decrease compared to the same period in 2018. The decrease in net interest margin was driven primarily by a 45 basis point increase in rate paid on average interest-bearing liabilities, which was offset partially by a 27 basis point increase in earning asset yields.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income was $843 million for the current quarter, compared to $1.0 billion for the prior quarter and $782 million for the third quarter of 2018. Excluding the $5 million and $205 millioninsurance settlement benefits related to financial crisis-era related claims recognized in the current and prior quarters, respectively, noninterest income increased $18 million sequentially and $56 million year-over-year. The sequential increase was driven largely by higher mortgage-related income and investment banking income. The year-over-year increase was driven by increases across most categories, most notably a $23 million increase in mortgage-related income.

Client transaction-related fees (namely service charges on deposits, other charges and fees, and card fees) increased $5 million sequentially and $6 million year-over-year. The sequential increase was driven by one more day during the current quarter, while the year-over-year increase was driven primarily by certain discrete impacts (recorded as contra-revenue) recognized in card fees in the third quarter of 2018.

Investment banking income was $159 million for the current quarter, compared to $142 million in the prior quarter and $150 million for the third quarter of 2018. The $17 million sequential increase was due primarily to higher syndicated finance and M&A activity, while the year-over-year increase was driven by higher syndicated finance and investment grade bond origination activity, partially offset by a decline in equity capital markets.

Mortgage-related income for the current quarter was $106 million, compared to $86 million for the prior quarter and $83 million for the third quarter of 2018. The sequential and year-over-year increases were driven primarily by higher production-related income due to increased refinance and purchase volumes, partially offset by higher decay expense which negatively impacted servicing income. At September 30, 2019, the servicing portfolio totaled $165.6 billion, down 1% compared to the prior quarter and 3% year-over-year.

4

Trading income was $29 million for the current quarter, compared to $55 million for the prior quarter and $42 million for the prior year. The sequential and year-over-year decreases were largely driven by an increase in counterparty credit valuation reserves in the current quarter. The sequential decrease was also impacted by lower fixed income sales and trading revenue.

Commercial real estate-related income was $32 million for the current quarter, compared to $50 million for the prior quarter and $24 million for the prior year. The sequential decline was primarily attributable to lower structured real estate related income, while the year-over-year increase was driven by higher structured real estate related income and higher commercial mortgage production and servicing income from the Company's agency lending business.

Net securities gains/(losses) totaled gains of $4 million for the current quarter compared to losses of ($42) million in the prior quarter that arose from a repositioning of the Company's securities AFS portfolio. There were no net securities gains/(losses) in the prior year quarter.

Other noninterest income was $40 million for the current quarter, compared to $72 million in the prior quarter and $21 million in the third quarter of 2018. The sequential decrease was due primarily to a $44 million gain on the sale of accruing TDRs during the second quarter of 2019. The year-over-year increase was due primarily to $10 million in net remeasurement gains on equity investments recognized during the current quarter.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, noninterest income was $2.7 billion, compared to $2.4 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The $245 million increase compared to the prior year was driven primarily by the insurance settlement benefits recognized in the current and prior quarter as well as higher commercial real estate-related and mortgage-related income.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense was $1.5 billion in the current quarter, down$164 million sequentially and an increase of $90 million compared to the third quarter of 2018. Excluding the $205 million charitable contribution to the SunTrust Foundation in the prior quarter and the merger-related impacts of $33 million in the current quarter and $14 million in the prior quarter, noninterest expense increased $22 million sequentially and $57 million year-over-year. The $22 million sequential increase was driven primarily by higher employee compensation and benefits costs and higher operating losses. The $57 million year-over-year increase was driven by higher employee compensation and benefits, net occupancy expense, and ongoing investments in technology.

Employee compensation and benefits expense was $841 million in the current quarter, compared to $828 million in the prior quarter and $795 million in the third quarter of 2018. The $13 million sequential increase was driven primarily by higher salary costs (due to one additional day in the quarter) and higher contract programming costs. The $46 million year-over-year increase was driven primarily by higher salary and benefits costs in the current quarter.

Outside processing and software expense was $241 million in both the current and prior quarter, $7 million higher than the third quarter of 2018. The 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 $16 million higher than the third quarter of 2018. The year-over-year increase was driven primarily by lease termination gains recognized in the prior year quarter and higher rent expense in the current quarter.

Merger-related costs are expenses associated with the Company’s proposed merger of equals with BB&T Corporation as announced on February 7, 2019. Current quarter costs totaled $22 million and were primarily comprised of legal and professional services and write-offs of certain technology development projects in progress. In addition to these costs, there were $11 million of other merger-related expenses (consulting fees and retention payments) that were primarily recorded in ‘other noninterest expense’.

5

Operating losses were $23 million in the current quarter, compared to $14 million in the prior quarter and $18 million in the third quarter of 2018. The sequential and year-over-year increases were driven primarily by higher fraud costs recognized during the current quarter.

Regulatory assessments expense was $17 million in both the current and prior quarter, $22 million lower than the prior year. 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 $127 million in the current quarter, compared to $124 million in the prior quarter and $108 million in the third quarter of 2018. The $19 million year-over-year increase was driven primarily by merger-related impacts in the current quarter (primarily consulting fees).

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, noninterest expense was $4.6 billion compared to $4.2 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The $411 million increase was driven largely by the $205 million charitable contribution and $92 million in merger-related impacts. Excluding these, expenses were up 3% driven by a $53 million increase in outside processing and software, a $42 million increase in employee compensation and benefits, and a $35 million increase in net occupancy expense.

Income Taxes

For the third quarter of 2019, the Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $122 million compared to $105 million for the prior quarter and $95 million for the third quarter of 2018. The effective tax rate for the current quarter was 16%, compared to 13% in the prior quarter and 11% in the third quarter of 2018. The prior quarter included $32 million of discrete tax benefits related primarily to the resolution of certain tax matters, while the third quarter of 2018 included $67 million of discrete tax benefits related to the finalization of the impact of tax reform and the completion of the merger of SunTrust Mortgage into SunTrust Bank.

Balance Sheet

At September 30, 2019, the Company had total assets of $227.4 billion and total shareholders’ equity of $26.5 billion, representing 12% of total assets. Book value per common share was $54.87 and tangible book value per common share was $40.58, both up 3% compared to June 30, 2019, driven primarily by growth in retained earnings and a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss.

Loans and Deposits

Average performing LHFI totaled $157.1 billion for the current quarter, up 1% compared to the prior quarter and up 8% compared to the prior year. The sequential growth was driven primarily by increases in CRE, consumer direct, consumer indirect loans, and residential mortgages, offset partially by declines in commercial construction loans and residential home equity products. The year-over-year increase was also positively impacted by 8% growth in C&I loans.

Average consumer and commercial deposits totaled $162.5 billion for the current quarter, a 2% increase compared to both the prior quarter and the third quarter of 2018. Sequential growth was driven primarily by increases in NOW accounts, money market accounts, and time deposits. Year-over-year growth was driven by increases in NOW accounts and time deposits, offset partially by declines in demand deposits and money market accounts.

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 9.3% at September 30, 2019. The ratios of average total equity to average total assets and tangible common equity to tangible assets were 11.7% and 8.2%, respectively, at September 30, 2019. Additionally, the Company declared a common stock dividend of $0.56 per common share in the third quarter of 2019, up 12% compared to both the prior quarter and the third quarter of 2018. 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.

Asset Quality

Overall asset quality performance continues to be strong. Nonperforming assets (“NPAs”) totaled $661 million at September 30, 2019, up $63 million from the prior quarter and down $93 million year-over-year. The ratio of NPLs to period-end LHFI was 0.38%, 0.34%, and 0.47% at September 30, 2019, June 30, 2019, and September 30, 2018, respectively. The year-over-year decrease was driven primarily by lower residential mortgage NPLs due to loans transitioning from non-accruing status (as a result of forbearance relief provided after hurricanes) back to accruing status. 

Net charge-offs totaled $112 million during the current quarter, an increase of $27 million compared to the prior quarter and $24 million compared to the third quarter of 2018. The ratio of annualized net charge-offs to total average LHFI was 0.28% for the current quarter, compared to 0.22% for the prior quarter and 0.24% for the prior year.

The provision for credit losses was $132 million in the current quarter, an increase of $5 million sequentially and $71 million year-over-year. The sequential increase was driven primarily by higher net charge-offs. The year-over-year increase reflects both higher net charge-offs and a release of loan loss reserves in the prior year quarter. At September 30, 2019, the ALLL was $1.7 billion, which represented 1.07% of period-end loans, stable relative to June 30, 2019 and a 3 basis point decline relative to September 30, 2018, the latter of which was driven by improved asset quality.

Early stage delinquencies decreased 1 basis point from the prior quarter and 16 basis points from September 30, 2018 to 0.58% at September 30, 2019. Excluding government-guaranteed loans, early stage delinquencies were 0.23%, which was stable compared to the prior quarter and down 1 basis point compared to the third quarter of 2018.

Business Segment Results

The Company has included its business segment financial tables as part of this release. Revenue and income amounts labeled “FTE” in the business segment tables are reported on a fully taxable-equivalent basis. For the business segments, net interest income is computed using matched-maturity funds transfer pricing and noninterest income includes federal and state tax credits that are grossed-up on a pre-tax equivalent basis. Further, provision/(benefit) for credit losses represents net charge-offs by segment combined with an allocation to the segments of the provision/(benefit) attributable to each segment's quarterly change in the allowance for loan and lease losses (“ALLL”) and unfunded commitments reserve balances. SunTrust also reports results for Corporate Other, which includes the Treasury department as well as the residual expense associated with operational and support expense allocations. The Total Corporate Other results presented in this document also include Reconciling Items, which are comprised of differences created between internal management accounting practices and U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and certain matched-maturity funds transfer pricing credits and charges. A detailed discussion of the business segment results will be included in the Company’s forthcoming Form 10-Q.

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 22.

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.

8

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 unusual or infrequent items from the calculation of Tangible efficiency ratio-FTE. These items include merger-related impacts recognized in the first, second, and third quarters of 2019, insurance settlement benefits related to financial crisis-era related claims recognized in the second and third quarters of 2019, the charitable contribution to the SunTrust Foundation recognized in the second quarter of 2019, and the legacy National Commerce Financial Corporation (“NCF”) pension plan settlement charge recognized in the fourth quarter of 2018. See slide 20 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 pre-tax impact of unusual or infrequent items from the calculation of Tangible efficiency ratio-FTE. These unusual or infrequent items include (i) $45 million, $14 million, and $33 million of merger-related impacts recognized in the first, second, and third quarter of 2019, respectively, (ii) $205 million and $5 million of insurance settlement benefits related to financial crisis-era related claims recognized in the second and third quarter of 2019, respectively, (iii) the $205 million charitable contribution to the SunTrust Foundation recognized in the second quarter of 2019, and (iv) the $60 million legacy National Commerce Financial Corporation ("NCF") pension plan settlement charge recognized in the fourth quarter of 2018. 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.

¹  Net interest income-FTE, Income-FTE, Total revenue-FTE, Efficiency ratio-FTE, and Tangible efficiency ratio-FTE are presented 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. 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 on an FTE basis plus Noninterest income.

²  Provision for credit losses represents net charge-offs by segment combined with an allocation to the segments for the provision attributable to quarterly changes in the Allowance for loan and lease losses and Unfunded commitment reserve balances.

³  A Tangible efficiency ratio is presented, which 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 this segment's efficiency to other business segments and companies in the industry. This measure is utilized by management to assess the efficiency of the Company and its lines of business.

3Q 19 EARNINGS PRESENTATION October 17, 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 20. 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 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 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 impacts of 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 periods, 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 periods, 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, deposit costs, efficiency ratios (including after the proposed merger with BB&T), net charge-off ratio and capital ratios, (ii) 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, the profile and stature of the combined company’s retail and private wealth businesses and the opportunity to deliver our capabilities and differentiated model to a broader set of clients, (iii) future economic conditions, and (iv) the comments our clients are making about the economy 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. Such statements speak as of the date of this presentation, and we do not assume any obligation to update such statements or to update the reasons why actual results could differ from those contained in such statements in light of new information or future events. 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

Prior periods have been restated. This had no impact to total consolidated net charge-offs. Guaranteed student loans typically have a guarantee of 97% or 98% of principal and accrued interest if the borrower defaults. 2.
