Earnings Drivers

FY25 vs FY24 Expectations

Comments

Adjusted Revenue

Flat - Up 4%

Composition of revenue will be driven by the quantity and pace of interest rate

cuts. Current outlook assumes 25bps cuts in December 2024 and March, May,

(excluding deferred comp)

and September 2025, as well as modest balance sheet growth.

Adjusted Expense

Up 2% - 4%

Maintain disciplined expense management.

(excluding deferred comp)

Reflects expected commission increases in fixed income trading business.

Net Charge-Offs

0.15% - 0.25%

Continued credit normalization.

Reflects benefit of declining rates.

Tax Rate

21% - 23%

Timing of discrete items impacts quarterly rate.

CET1 Ratio

10.5% - 11.0%

Near term target of 11.0%.

Reflects expectations for modest loan growth

in addition to opportunistic deployment of excess capital.

Adjusted financial measures, including measures excluding deferred compensation, are non-GAAP and are reconciled to GAAP measures in the appendix.

8

Net interest income is adjusted to a fully taxable equivalent ("FTE") basis assuming a statutory federal income tax of 21 percent and, where applicable, state income taxes.

Variability in Deferred Compensation may impact growth rates in noninterest income and noninterest expense but should have an offsetting and immaterial impact on pretax income.
