ATLANTIC UNION BANKSHARES REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER RESULTS

Richmond, Va., January 25, 2022 – Atlantic Union Bankshares Corporation (the “Company” or “Atlantic Union”) (Nasdaq: AUB) today reported net income available to common shareholders of $44.8 million and basic and diluted earnings per common share of $0.59 for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2021. Adjusted operating earnings available to common shareholders⁽¹⁾ were $53.8 million, diluted operating earnings per common share⁽¹⁾ were $0.71, and pre-tax pre-provision adjusted operating earnings⁽¹⁾ were $66.2 million for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2021.

Net income available to common shareholders was $252.0 million and basic and diluted earnings per common share were $3.26 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021. Adjusted operating earnings available to common shareholders⁽¹⁾ were $273.3 million, diluted operating earnings per common share⁽¹⁾ were $3.53, and pre-tax pre-provision adjusted operating earnings⁽¹⁾ were $284.8 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021.

“Looking back at 2021, it was a challenging but successful year for Atlantic Union Bankshares,” said John C. Asbury, president and chief executive officer of Atlantic Union. “While there were ups and downs with the continuing pandemic, Atlantic Union had a strong finish to 2021 and we are optimistic as we enter 2022. We expect that loan growth will continue to show strength and credit losses will remain historically low due to the positive economic outlook. We made difficult choices to position the Company for long-term success through the strategic actions we took throughout the continuing pandemic and in the fourth quarter, and we remain optimistic that the lingering effects of the pandemic will continue to recede in 2022.”

“Operating under the mantra of soundness, profitability and growth – in that order of priority - Atlantic Union remains committed to generating sustainable, profitable growth and building long term value for our shareholders.”

Strategic Initiatives

During the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company took certain actions to reduce expenses in light of the current and expected operating environment that included the closure of the Atlantic Union Bankshares operations center and consolidation of 16 branches, all expected to be completed in March 2022. These actions resulted in restructuring expenses in the fourth quarter of 2021 of approximately $16.5 million primarily related to real estate, lease and other asset write downs, as well as severance costs.

Additionally, during the fourth quarter of 2021 the Company sold shares of Visa, Inc. Class B common stock and recorded a gain in other income of $5.1 million.

Subordinated Notes Offering

During the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company issued $250.0 million of fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes with a maturity date of December 15, 2031 (the “2031 Notes”). The 2031 Notes were sold at par resulting in net proceeds, after underwriting discounts and offering expenses, of approximately $246.9 million.

The Company used a portion of the net proceeds from the 2031 Notes issuance to redeem its outstanding $150 million fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes that were due to mature in 2026 (the “2026 Notes”), with such redemption effective during the fourth quarter of 2021. As a result of the redemption, the Company recorded additional interest expense of approximately $1.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2021 due to the acceleration of the related unamortized discount.

Share Repurchase Program

During the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program (the “Repurchase Program”) to purchase up to $100 million of the Company’s common stock in either open market or privately negotiated transactions, including pursuant to a trading plan in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 and /or Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act. This Repurchase Program replaced the prior $125 million repurchase program that was fully utilized as of September 30, 2021 and was otherwise due to expire on June 30, 2022. There were no share repurchase transactions for the quarter ended December 31, 2021.

Small Business Administration (“SBA”) Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”)

The Company participated in the SBA PPP under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act, which was intended to provide economic relief to small businesses that had been adversely impacted by the COVID-19 global pandemic (“COVID-19”). The PPP loan funding program expired on May 31, 2021. The Company had PPP loans with a recorded investment of $154.7 million and unamortized deferred fees of $4.4 million as of December 31, 2021. The loans carry a 1% interest rate.

In addition to an insignificant amount of PPP loan pay offs, the Company has processed $2.0 billion^(*) of loan forgiveness on 16,000 PPP loans^(*) since the inception of the program through December 31, 2021. In the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company processed $315.0 million^(*) on 2,700 PPP loans for forgiveness.

^(*) Number and amount of PPP loans processed for forgiveness are rounded and approximate values

NET INTEREST INCOME

For the fourth quarter of 2021, net interest income was $138.3 million, an increase from $137.5 million reported in the third quarter of 2021. Net interest income (FTE)⁽¹⁾ was $141.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, an increase of approximately $903,000 from the third quarter of 2021. The increases in net interest income and net interest income (FTE) were primarily driven by higher investment income as a result of growth in the investment portfolio, and marginally higher interest and fees on loans, including PPP loan interest and fees. These increases in net interest income and net interest income (FTE) were partially offset by the previously mentioned unamortized discount acceleration. The fourth quarter net interest margin decreased 2 basis points to 3.03% from the previous quarter, and the net interest margin (FTE)⁽¹⁾ also decreased 2 basis points during the same period to 3.10%. Earning asset yields declined by 1 basis point compared to the third quarter of 2021 due to the impact of the low interest rate environment on core loan and investment securities yields and the elevated but low yielding cash balances due to excess liquidity. The cost of funds increased by 1 basis point compared to the third quarter of 2021, driven by higher borrowing costs, primarily as a result of the previously mentioned acceleration of an unamortized discount.

The Company’s net interest margin (FTE) ⁽¹⁾ includes the impact of acquisition accounting fair value adjustments. Net accretion related to acquisition accounting was $4.2 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2021. The four quarters of 2021 and the remaining estimated net accretion impact are reflected in the following table (dollars in thousands):

ASSET QUALITY

Overview

During the fourth quarter of 2021, nonperforming assets (“NPAs”) as a percentage of loans decreased 3 basis points from the prior quarter and remained low at 0.25% at December 31, 2021. Accruing past due loan levels as a percentage of total loans held for investment at December 31, 2021 decreased 7 basis points as compared to September 30, 2021, and were 13 basis points lower than at December 31, 2020. Net charge-off levels remained low at 0.02% of average loans on an annualized basis for the fourth quarter of 2021. The allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) totaled $107.8 million at December 31, 2021, a $1.5 million decrease from the prior quarter primarily due to lower expected losses, reflecting the positive economic outlook, partially offset by the impact of loan growth in the current quarter.

Nonperforming Assets

At December 31, 2021, NPAs totaled $32.8 million, a decrease of $4.4 million from September 30, 2021. NPAs as a percentage of total outstanding loans at December 31, 2021 were 0.25%, a decrease of 3 basis points from September 30, 2021. Excluding the impact of the PPP loans⁽¹⁾, NPAs as a percentage of total adjusted loans held for investment were 0.25% at December 31, 2021, a decrease of 4 basis points from 0.29% at September 30, 2021.

Past Due Loans

Past due loans still accruing interest totaled $29.9 million or 0.23% of total loans held for investment at December 31, 2021, compared to $38.8 million or 0.30% of total loans held for investment at September 30, 2021, and $49.8 million or 0.36% of total loans held for investment at December 31, 2020. Of the total past due loans still accruing interest, $9.1 million or 0.07% of total loans held for investment were loans past due 90 days or more at December 31, 2021, compared to $11.0 million or 0.08% of total loans held for investment at September 30, 2021, and $13.6 million or 0.10% of total loans held for investment at December 31, 2020.

Net Charge-offs

Net charge-offs totaled $511,000 or 0.02% of total average loans on an annualized basis for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, compared to $113,000 or less than 0.01% for the third quarter of 2021, and $1.8 million or 0.05% for the fourth quarter of 2020.

Provision for Credit Losses

For the quarter ended December 31, 2021, the Company recorded a negative provision for credit losses of $1.0 million, compared to a negative provision for credit losses of $18.8 million in the previous quarter, and a negative provision for credit losses of $13.8 million recorded during the same quarter in 2020. The provision for credit losses for the fourth quarter of 2021 reflected a negative provision of $1.5 million for loan losses and a provision of $500,000 for unfunded commitments.

Allowance for Credit Losses

At December 31, 2021, the ACL was $107.8 million and included an allowance for loan and lease losses (“ALLL”) of $99.8 million and a reserve for unfunded commitments (“RUC”) of $8.0 million. The ACL at December 31, 2021 decreased $1.5 million from September 30, 2021 due to lower expected losses than previously estimated as a result of ongoing economic improvements, benign credit quality metrics to date, risk rating upgrades during the quarter, and a positive macroeconomic outlook, and was comprised of a $2.0 million decrease in the ALLL and a $500,000 increase in the RUC.

The ACL as a percentage of total loans decreased slightly to 0.82% at December 31, 2021, compared to 0.83% at September 30, 2021. The ALLL as a percentage of the total loan portfolio was 0.76% at December 31, 2021 and 0.77% at September 30, 2021.

NONINTEREST INCOME

Noninterest income increased $6.5 million to $36.4 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 from $29.9 million in the prior quarter, primarily driven by a $5.1 million gain from the sale of Visa, Inc. Class B common stock and increases in several other noninterest income categories, partially offset by a $1.5 million decline in mortgage banking income reflecting the seasonal drop in mortgage loan origination volumes in the fourth quarter of 2021. The other noninterest income increases from the prior quarter include an increase of $937,000 in unrealized gains on equity method investments, a seasonal increase of $610,000 in service charges on deposit accounts, a $559,000 increase in bank owned life insurance revenue, an increase of $341,000 in loan interest rate swap fee income, and additional asset management fees of $210,000 due to growth in assets under management in the fourth quarter.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE

Noninterest expense increased $24.6 million to $119.9 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 from $95.3 million in the prior quarter, primarily driven by restructuring expenses of $16.5 million related to the announced closure of the Company’s operations center and the consolidation of 16 branches planned for March 2022. In addition, salaries and benefits increased $4.4 million from the prior quarter, primarily driven by performance based variable incentive compensation and profit-sharing expenses, including a $500,000 contribution to the Company’s Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”). Other notable expenses incurred in the fourth quarter of 2021 include $1.4 million in expenses associated with strategic projects, $1.2 million in severance costs unrelated to branch closures, and approximately $900,000 in technology and data processing costs related to the termination of a software contract.

INCOME TAXES

The effective tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2021 was 14.4%, compared to 18.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2021, reflecting the impact of changes in the proportion of tax exempt income to pretax income. The effective tax rate for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 was 17.2%, compared to 15.1% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020.

BALANCE SHEET

At December 31, 2021, total assets were $20.1 billion, an increase of $129.1 million or approximately 2.6% (annualized) from September 30, 2021, and an increase of $436.3 million or approximately 2.2% from December 31, 2020. Total assets have increased from the prior quarter primarily due to net growth in the investment securities portfolio, as well as growth in the loan portfolio, which was partially offset by PPP loan forgiveness.

At December 31, 2021, loans held for investment (net of deferred fees and costs) totaled $13.2 billion, including $150.4 million in PPP loans, an increase of $56.3 million or 1.7% (annualized) from September 30, 2021, while average loans at December 31, 2021 decreased $369.3 million or 10.9% (annualized) from the prior quarter. Excluding the effects of the PPP⁽¹⁾, loans held for investment (net of deferred fees and costs) at December 31, 2021 increased $372.5 million or 11.7% (annualized) from September 30, 2021, and average loans increased $29.8 million or 0.9% (annualized) from the prior quarter. Loans held for investment (net of deferred fees and costs) decreased $825.5 million or 5.9% from December 31, 2020, and quarterly average loans decreased $1.1 billion or 7.8% from the same period in the prior year. Excluding the effects of the PPP⁽¹⁾, loans held for investment (net of deferred fees and costs) at December 31, 2021 increased $203.7 million or 1.6% from the same period in the prior year, and quarterly average loans during the fourth quarter of 2021 increased $51.1 million or 0.4% from the same period in the prior year. In addition to an insignificant amount of PPP loan payoffs, the Company processed $315.0 million^(*) of loan forgiveness on 2,700 PPP loans^(*) during the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to $391.8 million^(*) of loan forgiveness on 3,000 PPP loans^(*) during the third quarter of 2021, and $429.3 million^(*) of loan forgiveness on 3,100 PPP loans^(*) during the fourth quarter of 2020.

At December 31, 2021, total deposits were $16.6 billion, a decrease of $11.1 million or approximately 0.3% (annualized) from September 30, 2021, while average deposits increased $143.1 million or 3.4% (annualized) from the prior quarter. Deposits at December 31, 2021 increased $888.3 million or 5.6% from December 31, 2020, and quarterly average deposits at December 31, 2021 increased $965.1 million or 6.1% from the same period in the prior year. The increase in deposits from the prior year was primarily due to additional liquidity of bank customers due to higher levels of government assistance programs since the start of COVID and increased savings. The decrease in deposits from the prior quarter is primarily attributable to the run-off of time deposits.

The following table shows the Company’s capital ratios at the quarters ended:

	December 31,		September 30,		December 31,
	2021		2021		2020
Common equity Tier 1 capital ratio (2)	10.24	%	10.37	%	10.26	%

Common equity to total assets	12.68	%	12.68	%	12.95	%
Tangible common equity to tangible assets (1)	8.20	%	8.16	%	8.31	%

During the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company declared and paid a quarterly dividend on the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock of $171.88 per share (equivalent to $0.43 per outstanding depositary share), consistent with the third quarter of 2021 and the fourth quarter of 2020. During the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company also declared and paid cash dividends of $0.28 per common share, consistent with the third quarter of 2021, and an increase of $0.03, or approximately 12.0%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2020.

On December 10, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a Repurchase Program to purchase up to $100 million of the Company’s common stock in open market transactions or privately negotiated transactions, including pursuant to a trading plan in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 and /or Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act. There were no share repurchase transactions during the quarter ended December 31, 2021. The Repurchase Program followed a prior $125 million share repurchase authorization that was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors during the second quarter of 2021 and was fully utilized by September 30, 2021.

During the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company issued $250.0 million of 2.875% fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes with a maturity date of December 15, 2031. The 2031 Notes were sold at par resulting in net proceeds, after underwriting discounts and offering expenses, of approximately $246.9 million. The Company used a portion of the net proceeds from the 2031 Notes issuance to repay its outstanding $150 million of 5.00% fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes due 2026.

The Company’s management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide additional understanding of ongoing operations, enhance comparability of results of operations with prior periods and show the effects of significant gains and charges in the periods presented without the impact of items or events that may obscure trends in the Company’s underlying performance. For a reconciliation of these measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures and additional information about these non-GAAP financial measures, see Alternative Performance Measures (non-GAAP) section of the Key Financial Results.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements in this press release may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements, including without limitation, statements made in Mr. Asbury’s quotes and statements regarding the Company’s outlook on future economic conditions and the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, are statements that include, projections, predictions, expectations, or beliefs about future events or results that are not statements of historical fact. Such forward-looking statements are based on various assumptions as of the time they are made, and are inherently subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified, that may cause actual results, performance, or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are often accompanied by words that convey projected future events or outcomes such as “expect,” “believe,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “will,” “may,” “view,” “opportunity,” “potential,” or words of similar meaning or other statements concerning opinions or judgment of the Company and its management about future events. Although the Company believes that its expectations with respect to forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions within the bounds of its existing knowledge of its business and operations, there can be no assurance that actual results, performance, or achievements of, or trends affecting, the Company will not differ materially from any projected future results, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Actual future results, performance, achievements or trends may differ materially from historical results or those anticipated depending on a variety of factors, including, but not limited to the effects of or changes in:

(1) These are non-GAAP financial measures. Net interest income (FTE) and total adjusted revenue (FTE), which are used in computing net interest margin (FTE) and adjusted operating efficiency ratio (FTE), respectively, provide valuable additional insight into the net interest margin and the efficiency ratio by adjusting for differences in tax treatment of interest income sources. The entire FTE adjustment is attributable to interest income on earning assets, which is used in computing yield on earning assets. Interest expense and the related cost of interest-bearing liabilities and cost of funds ratios are not affected by the FTE components.

(2) These are non-GAAP financial measures. Tangible assets and tangible common equity are used in the calculation of certain profitability, capital, and per share ratios. The Company believes tangible assets, tangible common equity and the related ratios are meaningful measures of capital adequacy because they provide a meaningful base for period-to-period and company-to-company comparisons, which the Company believes will assist investors in assessing the capital of the Company and its ability to absorb potential losses.

(3) These are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes that ROTCE is a meaningful supplement to GAAP financial measures and useful to investors because it measures the performance of a business consistently across time without regard to whether components of the business were acquired or developed internally.

(4)

(4)

These are non-GAAP financial measures. Adjusted operating measures exclude the gains or losses related to balance sheet repositioning (principally composed of gains and losses on debt extinguishment), gains or losses on sale of securities, gains on the sale of Visa, Inc. Class B common stock, as well as branch closing and facility consolidation costs (principally composed of real estate, leases and other assets write downs, gains or losses on related real estate sales, as well as severance associated with branch closing and corporate expense reduction initiatives). The Company believes these non-GAAP adjusted measures provide investors with important information about the continuing economic results of the organization’s operations. Prior periods reflect adjustments for previously announced branch closing and corporate expense reduction initiatives.

(5) All ratios at December 31, 2021 are estimates and subject to change pending the Company’s filing of its FR Y9-C. All other periods are presented as filed.

(6) These balances reflect the impact of the CARES Act and the Joint Guidance, which provides relief for TDR designations and also provides guidance on past due reporting for modified loans.

(7) The adjusted operating efficiency ratio (FTE) excludes the amortization of intangible assets, gains or losses on sale of securities, gains on the sale of Visa, Inc. Class B common stock, gains or losses related to balance sheet repositioning (principally composed of gains and losses on debt extinguishment), as well as branch closing and facility consolidation costs. This measure is similar to the measure utilized by the Company when analyzing corporate performance and is also similar to the measure utilized for incentive compensation. The Company believes this adjusted measure provides investors with important information about the combined economic results of the organization’s operations. Prior periods reflect adjustments for previously announced branch closing and corporate expense reduction initiatives.

(8) This is a non-GAAP financial measure. Pre-tax pre-provision adjusted earnings excludes the provision for credit losses, which can fluctuate significantly from period-to-period under the CECL methodology, income tax expense, gains or losses related to balance sheet repositioning (principally composed of gains and losses on debt extinguishment), gains or losses on sale of securities, gains on the sale of Visa, Inc. Class B common stock, as well as branch closing and facility consolidation costs. The Company believes this adjusted measure provides investors with important information about the combined economic results of the organization’s operations. Prior periods reflect adjustments for previously announced branch closing and corporate expense reduction initiatives.

(9) These are non-GAAP financial measures. PPP adjustment impact excludes the SBA guaranteed loans funded during 2020 and 2021. The Company believes loans held for investment (net of deferred fees and costs), excluding PPP is useful to investors as it provides more clarity on the Company’s organic growth. The Company also believes that the related non-GAAP financial measures of past due loans still accruing interest as a percentage of total loans held for investment (net of deferred fees and costs), excluding PPP, are useful to investors as loans originated under the PPP carry an SBA guarantee. The Company believes that the ALLL as a percentage of loans held for investment (net of deferred fees and costs), excluding PPP, is useful to investors because of the size of the Company’s PPP originations and the impact of the embedded credit enhancement provided by the SBA guarantee.

(10) Periods ended December 31, 2020 have been restated to adjust for certain mortgage loans held for investment that were previously included.

9 Q4 2021 Financial Performance At - a - Glance For non - GAAP financial measures, see reconciliation to most directly comparable GAAP measures in “Appendix – Reconciliation of Non - GAAP Disclosures” Note: all tables presented dollars in thousands, expect per share amounts • Net income available to common shareholders for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $44.8 million or $ 0.59 per share, down $26.8 million or $0.35 per share compared to the prior quarter, primarily driven by the current quarter’s lower negative provision for credit losses, and higher noninterest expense, which included approximately $16.5 million in branch closing and facility consolidation costs and also reflected the impact of higher performance based variable incentive compensation and profit - sharing expenses compared to the prior quarter, partially offset by higher noninterest income, which benefited from a $5.1 million gain on the sale of Visa, Inc. Class B common stock (VISA B) in the fourth quarter of 2021. • Adjusted operating earnings (non - GAAP) decreased $17.8 million to $53.8 million at December 31, 2021 compared to the prior quarter primarily due to a lower negative provision for credit losses in the current quarter and an increase in noninterest expenses of $8.2 million mainly due to higher performance based variable incentive compensation and profit - sharing expenses, severance costs, and additional expenses related to strategic initiatives. • Fourth quarter net income available to common shareholders and adjusted operating earnings available to common shareholders also include additional interest expense of approximately $1.0 million due to the acceleration of unamortized discount related to the repayment of subordinated debt. 4Q2021 3Q2021 Net Income available to common shareholders $ 44,812 $ 71,598 Common EPS, diluted $ 0.59 $ 0.94 ROE 6.98% 10.88% ROTCE (non-GAAP) 11.98% 18.79% ROA 0.94% 1.47% Efficiency ratio 68.64% 56.95% Net interest margin 3.03% 3.05% Earnings Metrics 4Q2021 3Q2021 Adjusted operating earnings available to common shareholders $ 53,817 $ 71,591 Adjusted operating common EPS, diluted $ 0.71 $ 0.94 Adjusted operating ROA 1.11% 1.47% Adjusted operating ROTCE 14.25% 18.79% Adjusted operating efficiency ratio (FTE) 57.96% 53.91% Net interest margin (FTE) 3.10% 3.12% Adjusted operating earnings PTPP $ 66,199 $ 72,074 PTPP = Pre-tax Pre-provision Adjusted Operating Earnings Metrics - non-GAAP 4Q2021 3Q2021 Net interest income $ 138,327 $ 137,488 Provision for credit losses (1,000) (18,850) Noninterest income 36,417 29,938 Noninterest expense 119,944 95,343 Taxes 8,021 16,368 Net income (GAAP) 47,779 74,565 - Gain on sale of securities, net of tax - 7 - Gain on Visa, Inc.

12 Q4 2021 Noninterest Income and Noninterest Expense Noninterest income increased $6.5 million from the prior quarter to $36.4 million from $29.9 million due to: • Increased service charges on accounts of $610,000 due to seasonal increase • Higher asset management fees of $ 210,000 due to increased assets under management • Increased bank owned life insurance revenue of approximately $ 559,000 • Increased loan swap fees of $341,000 • Increases in other operating income of $6.3 million primarily due to: • the gain of $5.1 million from the sale of VISA B shares, and • increases of $937,000 in unrealized gains on equity method investments • A decline of $1.5 million in mortgage banking income due to the seasonal drop in mortgage loan origination volumes Noninterest expense increased $24.6 million from the prior quarter to $119.9 million from $95.3 million due to: • $16.5 million related to the closure of the Company’s operations center and the consolidation of 16 branches planned for March 2022 • $4.4 million increase in salaries and benefits, mainly driven by incremental performance based variable incentive compensation and profit - sharing expenses of $3.9 million, including a $500,000 contribution to the Company’s Employee Stock Ownership Plan • $ 1.4 million in expenses associated with strategic projects • $1.2 million in severance costs unrelated to branch closures • $900,000 in technology and data processing costs related to the termination of a software contract Noninterest Income ($ thousands) 4Q2021 3Q2021 Service charges on deposit accounts $ 7,808 $ 7,198 Other service charges, commissions and fees 1,625 1,534 Interchange fees 2,027 2,203 Fiduciary and asset management fees 7,239 7,029 Mortgage banking income 3,330 4,818 Gains on securities transactions - 9 Bank owned life insurance income 3,286 2,727 Loan-related interest rate swap fees 1,443 1,102 Other operating income 9,659 3,318 Total noninterest income $ 36,417 $ 29,938 Less: Gain on sale of securities - 9 Less: Gain on Visa, Inc.

13 Q4 2021 Loan and Deposit Growth • At December 31, 2021, loans held for investment totaled $ 13.2 billion, an increase of $ 56.3 million from the prior quarter driven by increases in commercial loan balances ex PPP of $345.4 million and increases in consumer loan balances ex PPP of $27.1 million, partially offset by approximately $315.0 million of PPP loans that were forgiven in the fourth quarter. • Excluding PPP loans, total loans increased by $372.5 million or ~11.7% (annualized) • Commercial loans increased by 12.8% (annualized) primarily driven by increases in C&I. • Consumer loans balances increased by 5.4% (annualized), driven by growth in auto balances partially offset by continued declines in third party consumer loan balances. • Average loan yields increased 11 basis points during the quarter primarily reflecting the benefit from higher PPP loan fee accretion income. • Total deposits decreased by $11.1 million or ~0.3% (annualized) • A decline of $187 million in high cost time deposits was mostly offset by growth in low cost deposits of $ 176 million. • Low cost transaction accounts comprised 56% of total deposit balances at the end of the fourth quarter, consistent with third quarter levels. • The cost of deposits declined by 2 basis points compared to the prior quarter, primarily due to the maturity and repricing of high cost time deposits in the quarter.

16 Appendix

17 Reconciliation of Non - GAAP Disclosures The Company has provided supplemental performance measures on a tax - equivalent, tangible, operating, adjusted, or pre - tax pre - pr ovision basis. These non - GAAP financial measures are a supplement to GAAP, which is used to prepare the Company’s financial statements, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. In addition, the Company’s non - GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to non - GAAP financial measures of other companies. The Company uses the non - GAAP financial measur es discussed herein in its analysis of the Company’s performance. The Company’s management believes that these non - GAAP financial m easures provide additional understanding of ongoing operations, enhance comparability of results of operations with prior periods and sh ow the effects of significant gains and charges in the periods presented without the impact of items or events that may obscure trends in the C omp any’s underlying performance.

18 Reconciliation of Non - GAAP Disclosures Adjusted operating measures exclude the gains or losses related to balance sheet repositioning (principally composed of gains and losses on debt extinguishment), gains or losses on sale of securities, gains on the sale of Visa, Inc. Class B common stock, as well as branch closing and facility consolidation costs (principally composed of real estate, leases and other assets write downs, gains or losses on related real estate sales, as well as severance associated with branch closing and corporate expense reduction initiatives). The Company believes these non - GAAP adjusted measures provide investors with important information about the continuing economic results of the organization’s operations. Non - GAAP adjusted measures for prior periods reflect adjustments for previously announced branch closing and corporate expense reduction initiatives. Net interest income (FTE) and total adjusted revenue (FTE), which are used in computing net interest margin (FTE) and adjusted operating efficiency ratio (FTE), respectively, provide valuable additional insight into the net interest margin and the efficiency ratio by adjusting for differences in tax treatment of interest income sources. The entire FTE adjustment is attributable to interest income on earning assets, which is used in computing yield on earning assets. Interest expense and the related cost of interest - bearing liabilities and cost of funds ratios are not affected by the FTE components. The adjusted operating efficiency ratio (FTE) excludes the amortization of intangible assets, gains or losses on sale of securities, gains on the sale of Visa, Inc. Class B common stock, gains or losses related to balance sheet repositioning (principally composed of gains and losses on debt extinguishment), as well as branch closing and facility consolidation costs. This measure is similar to the measure utilized by the Company when analyzing corporate performance and is also similar to the measure utilized for incentive compensation. The Company believes this adjusted measure provides investors with important information about the combined economic results of the organization’s operations. Non - GAAP adjusted measures for prior periods reflect adjustments for previously announced branch closing and corporate expense reduction initiatives.

23 Reconciliation of Non - GAAP Disclosures PPP adjustment impact excludes the SBA guaranteed loans funded during 2020 and 2021. The Company believes loans held for investment (net of deferred fees and costs), excluding PPP is useful to investors as it provides more clarity on the Company’s organic growth. The Company also believes that the related non - GAAP financial measures of past due loans still accruing interest as a percentage of total loans held for investment (net of deferred fees and costs), excluding PPP, are useful to investors as loans originated under the PPP carry an SBA guarantee. The Company believes that the ALLL as a percentage of loans held for investment (net of deferred fees and costs), excluding PPP, is useful to investors because of the size of the Company’s PPP originations and the impact of the embedded credit enhancement provided by the SBA guarantee.
