Strategic Actions Taken To Neutralize Interest Rate Risk and Enhance Earnings • Focus on profitable loan growth with wider spreads • Continued focus on growing customers and deposits • Completed the Republic transaction in April 2024, which moved our balance sheet to a more neutral interest rate risk position 20 • Executed $900 million of receive fixed, pay floating interest rate derivatives in 4Q24 • Terminated $250 million of pay fixed, receive floating interest rate derivatives(1) in 4Q24 • Extended $200 million of term advances in 4Q24 • Roll-off or repricing of high-cost brokered time deposits though early 2025 possible • Restructured the investment portfolio and added fixed rate investment securities since the close of the Republic transaction, improving our interest rate risk profile • Proactive deposit pricing actions taken in September, following the Fed’s 50 basis point rate cut, with continued product-level focus and execution plan in place • Heightened focus on repricing the non-maturity deposit portfolio commensurate with Fed actions • Continue to assess and realize repricing opportunities in our time deposit portfolio over time • Strong balance sheet, low loan-to-deposit ratio and solid funding provides asset/liability management flexibility Strong market position and opportunity moving forward Prudent and measured approach to balance sheet management Focus on core business and strategic growth (1) Unrealized loss of $1.2 million included in AOCI will be recognized as an increase to interest expense when the previously forecasted hedged item affects earnings in future periods.


 
Noninterest-Bearing Deposit Trends Source: S&P Global Market Intelligence, Federal Reserve Bank of New York and Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (US); Corporation’s reported results for NIM and percentage of noninterest-bearing deposits at September 30,2024. 21 • Growth in the Corporation’s commercial banking business, as well as the historically low levels of interest rates for much of the post-2008 period, led to a generally increasing trend in the percentage of noninterest-bearing deposits. • Prior to 2008, noninterest-bearing deposits averaged 15%-20% of total deposits. As of September 30, 2024, noninterest- bearing deposits were 21.0% of total deposits down from a peak of 35% in June 2022. • Deposit growth, including growth in noninterest-bearing deposits, remains a key component of the Corporation’s relationship banking strategy. % Noninterest-Bearing Deposits, NIM and Fed Funds Effective Rate
