¹ SunTrust presents a return on average assets less net unrealized gains on securities and a return on average realized equity. These performance measures exclude the net unrealized gains on the Company’s securities portfolio. Due to its ownership of 48 million shares of common stock of The Coca-Cola Company, the Company believes this is a more indicative performance measure when being compared to other companies.

² The net interest margin and efficiency ratios are presented on a fully taxable-equivalent (FTE) and annualized basis. The FTE basis adjusts for the tax-favored status of income from certain loans and investments. The Company believes this measure to be the preferred industry measurement of net interest income and provides relevant comparison between taxable and non-taxable amounts.

³ Current period tier 1 capital, total capital and tier 1 leverage ratios are estimated as of the press release date.

⁴ Purchased liabilities include foreign and brokered deposits, funds purchased and other short-term borrowings.

¹ The net interest margin is presented on a fully taxable-equivalent (FTE) and annualized basis. The FTE basis adjusts for the tax-favored status of income from certain loans and investments. The Company believes this measure to be the preferred industry measurement of net interest income and provides relevant comparison between taxable and non-taxable amounts.

² SunTrust presents a return on average assets less net unrealized gains on securities and a return on average realized equity. These performance measures exclude the net unrealized gains on the Company’s securities portfolio. Due to its ownership of 48 million shares of common stock of The Coca-Cola Company, the Company believes this is a more indicative performance measure when being compared to other companies.
