ATLANTIC UNION BANKSHARES REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR FINANCIAL RESULTS

Richmond, Va., January 23, 2025 – Atlantic Union Bankshares Corporation (the “Company” or “Atlantic Union”) (NYSE: AUB) reported net income available to common shareholders of $54.8 million and basic and diluted earnings per common share of $0.61 and $0.60, respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2024 and adjusted operating earnings available to common shareholders^(1)^ of $61.4 million and adjusted diluted operating earnings per common share^(1)^ of $0.67 for the fourth quarter of 2024.

Net income available to common shareholders was $197.3 million and basic and diluted earnings per common share were $2.29 and $2.24, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2024. Adjusted operating earnings available to common shareholders^(1)^ were $241.3 million and adjusted diluted operating earnings per common share^(1)^ were $2.74 for the year ended December 31, 2024.

2024 was a good year, and a consequential year, for Atlantic Union,” said John C. Asbury, president and chief executive officer of Atlantic Union. “We were excited to close our acquisition of American National Bankshares Inc. on April 1st and we announced the proposed acquisition of Sandy Spring Bancorp, Inc. on October 21st. We were pleased to have received merger approvals from the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond seven weeks after filing the merger applications. Atlantic Union is a story of transformation from a Virginia community bank to the largest regional bank headquartered in Virginia, with operations in North Carolina and Maryland, to what will be the largest regional bank headquartered in the lower Mid-Atlantic upon closing our proposed acquisition of Sandy Spring.

“While our results for the fourth quarter were noisy with merger-related costs and a larger than typical specific reserve on an impaired loan, we delivered solid adjusted operating financial results for the year and the fourth quarter. We continue to be on a steady loan and deposit growth path.

“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.”

NET INTEREST INCOME

For the fourth quarter of 2024, net interest income was $183.2 million, an increase of $316,000 from $182.9 million in the third quarter of 2024. Net interest income - fully taxable equivalent (“FTE”)^(1)^was $187.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2024, an increase of $208,000 from $186.8 million in the third quarter of 2024. The increases from the prior quarter in both net interest income and net interest income (FTE)^(1)^ reflect the impacts of a decrease in interest expense due to lower short-term borrowing costs resulting from a $312.2 million decrease in average borrowings, lower deposit costs, as the Federal Reserve began cutting interest rates, resulting in a 100 basis points decrease in the Federal Funds rate since September 2024, as well as an increase in interest income from other earning assets as a result of a $402.0 million increase in average cash and other earning asset balances, partially offset by a decrease in interest income on loans held for investment (“LHFI”), due to lower loan yields, primarily driven by the impact of the interest rate cuts on our variable rate loans. For the fourth quarter of 2024, both the Company’s net interest margin and the net interest margin (FTE)^(1)^ decreased 5 basis points compared to the prior quarter to 3.26% and 3.33%, respectively, due to lower yields on earning assets primarily driven by the decreases in variable rate loan yields, partially offset by a reduction in the cost of funds and an increase in yields on cash and other earning assets. Earning asset yields for the fourth quarter of 2024 decreased 20 basis points to 5.74% compared to the third quarter of 2024, primarily due to lower yields on loans. Cost of funds decreased from the prior quarter by 15 basis points to 2.41% for the fourth quarter of 2024, reflecting lower borrowing and deposit costs.

The Company’s net interest margin (FTE)^(1)^ includes the impact of acquisition accounting fair value adjustments. Net accretion income related to acquisition accounting was $12.6 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2024. The impact of accretion and amortization for the periods presented are reflected in the following table (dollars in thousands):

Loan Deposit Borrowings
Accretion **** Amortization **** Amortization **** Total
For the quarter ended September 30, 2024 $ 13,926 $ (913) $ (288) $ 12,725
For the quarter ended December 31, 2024 13,668 (775) (288) 12,605

ASSET QUALITY

Overview

At December 31, 2024, nonperforming assets (“NPAs”) as a percentage of total LHFI was 0.32%, an increase of 12 basis points from the prior quarter and included nonaccrual loans of $58.0 million. The increase in NPAs was primarily due to one new nonaccrual loan within the commercial and industrial portfolio of $27.7 million, for which the Company recorded a specific reserve of $13.1 million. Accruing past due loans as a percentage of total LHFI totaled 31 basis points at December 31, 2024, an increase of 1 basis point from September 30, 2024, and consistent with December 31, 2023. Net charge-offs were 0.03% of total average LHFI (annualized) for the fourth quarter of 2024, an increase of 2 basis points from September 30, 2024, and consistent with December 31, 2023. The allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) totaled $193.7 million at December 31, 2024, a $16.1 million increase from the prior quarter, primarily impacted by the aforementioned commercial and industrial loan with the $13.1 million specific reserve added in the current quarter.

Nonperforming Assets

At December 31, 2024, NPAs totaled $58.4 million, compared to $37.3 million in the prior quarter. The following table shows a summary of NPA balances at the quarters ended (dollars in thousands):

**** December 31, **** September 30, **** June 30, **** March 31, **** December 31,
2024 2024 2024 2024 2023

Ending Balance $ 57,969 $ 36,847 $ 35,913 $ 36,389 $ 36,860

Past Due Loans

At December 31, 2024, past due loans still accruing interest totaled $57.7 million or 0.31% of total LHFI, compared to $55.2 million or 0.30% of total LHFI at September 30, 2024, and $48.4 million or 0.31% of total LHFI at December 31, 2023. The increase in past due loan levels at December 31, 2024 from September 30, 2024 was primarily within the commercial and industrial and residential 1-4 family – consumer portfolios. Of the total past due loans still accruing interest, $14.1 million or 0.08% of total LHFI were past due 90 days or more at December 31, 2024, compared to $15.2 million or 0.08% of total LHFI at September 30, 2024, and $13.9 million or 0.09% of total LHFI at December 31, 2023.

Allowance for Credit Losses

At December 31, 2024, the ACL was $193.7 million and included an allowance for loan and lease losses (“ALLL”) of $178.6 million and a reserve for unfunded commitments (“RUC”) of $15.0 million. The ACL at December 31, 2024 increased $16.1 million from September 30, 2024, primarily due to the $13.1 million new specific reserve on the impaired loan in the commercial and industrial portfolio discussed above, the impact of continued uncertainty in the economic outlook on certain portfolios and organic loan growth. The RUC at December 31, 2024 decreased $1.9 million from September 30, 2024, primarily due to a decrease in unfunded commitments.

The ACL as a percentage of total LHFI was 1.05% at December 31, 2024, compared to 0.97% at September 30, 2024. The ALLL as a percentage of total LHFI was 0.97% at December 31, 2024, compared to 0.88% at September 30, 2024.

Net Charge-offs

Net charge-offs were $1.4 million or 0.03% of total average LHFI on an annualized basis for the fourth quarter of 2024, compared to $0.7 million or 0.01% (annualized) for the third quarter of 2024, and $1.2 million or 0.03% (annualized) for the fourth quarter of 2023.

Provision for Credit Losses

For the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $17.5 million, compared to $2.6 million in the prior quarter, and $8.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2023. The increase in the provision for credit losses in the fourth quarter of 2024 is primarily driven by the $13.1 million specific reserve on the impaired loan in the commercial and industrial portfolio.

NONINTEREST INCOME

Noninterest income increased $941,000 to $35.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2024 from $34.3 million in the prior quarter, primarily driven by a $3.6 million increase in loan-related interest rate swap fees due to an increase in transaction volumes, partially offset by a $1.5 million decrease in bank owned life insurance income primarily driven by death benefits received in the prior quarter, and a $770,000 decrease in other operating income primarily due to a decrease in equity method investment income.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE

Noninterest expense increased $7.1 million to $129.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2024 from $122.6 million in the prior quarter, primarily driven by a $5.6 million increase in pre-tax merger-related costs associated with the pending Sandy Spring Bancorp, Inc. (“Sandy Spring”) acquisition.

Adjusted operating noninterest expense,^(1)^which excludes merger-related costs ($7.0 million in the fourth quarter and $1.4 million in the third quarter) and amortization of intangible assets ($5.6 million in the fourth quarter and $5.8 million in the third quarter), increased $1.6 million to $117.0 million for the fourth quarter from $115.4 million in the prior quarter, primarily driven by a $1.8 million increase in salaries and benefits expense primarily due to increases in variable incentive compensation expense and self-insured related group insurance costs, as well as a $1.4 million increase in professional services fees related to projects that occurred during the fourth quarter. These increases were partially offset by a $1.7 million decrease in franchise and other taxes.

INCOME TAXES

The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 was 19.0% and 14.9%, respectively, and the effective tax rate for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 was 19.5% and 15.9%. respectively. The increase in effective tax rate for the quarter ended December 31, 2024 was primarily driven by the proportionality of tax exempt income to pre-tax income. The increase in the effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2024 was primarily due to a valuation allowance for certain state net operating loss carryforwards established during the second quarter of 2024, which resulted in a 170 basis points increase in the year to date effective tax rate, and the proportionality of tax exempt income to pre-tax income.

BALANCE SHEET

At December 31, 2024, total assets were $24.6 billion, a decrease of $218.4 million or approximately 3.5% (annualized) from September 30, 2024 and an increase of $3.4 billion or approximately 16.2% from December 31, 2023. Total assets decreased from the prior quarter primarily due to a decrease in the investment securities portfolio due to principal paydowns and a decrease in the market value of the available for sale (“AFS”) securities portfolio, as well as a decrease in cash and cash equivalents due to greater funding needs combined with increases in individual deposits in the prior quarter. The increase in total assets from the prior year was primarily due to the American National Bankshares Inc. (“American National”) acquisition, as well as LHFI growth.

The Company’s recorded preliminary goodwill related to the American National acquisition totaling $288.8 million at December 31, 2024, a $1.3 million increase from preliminary goodwill of $287.5 million at September 30, 2024. This increase was due to an adjustment to the purchase price allocation for certain provisional amounts recognized at the acquisition date to reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. The measurement period adjustment recorded in the fourth quarter of 2024 related to franchise tax accruals.

At December 31, 2024, LHFI totaled $18.5 billion, an increase of $133.3 million or 2.9% (annualized) from September 30, 2024, and an increase of $2.8 billion or 18.1% from December 31, 2023. Quarterly average LHFI totaled $18.4 billion at December 31, 2024, an increase of $47.5 million or 1.0% (annualized) from the prior quarter, and an increase of $3.0 billion or 19.3% from December 31, 2023. LHFI increased from the prior quarter primarily due to increases in the construction and land development loan portfolio, as well as increases in the commercial and industrial loan portfolios, partially offset by decreases in the multifamily real estate loan portfolio. The increase from the prior year was primarily due to the American National acquisition.

At December 31, 2024, total investments were $3.3 billion, a decrease of $184.2 million or 20.7% (annualized) from September 30, 2024, and an increase of $164.9 million or 5.2% from December 31, 2023. The decrease compared to the prior quarter was primarily due to paydown activity and a decrease in the market value of the AFS securities portfolio, and the increase compared to the prior year was primarily due to the American National acquisition. AFS securities totaled $2.4 billion at December 31, 2024, $2.6 billion at September 30, 2024, and $2.2 billion at December 31, 2023. Total net unrealized losses on the AFS securities portfolio were $402.6 million at December 31, 2024, compared to $334.5 million at September 30, 2024, and $384.3 million at December 31, 2023. Held to maturity securities are carried at cost and totaled $803.9 million at December 31, 2024, $807.1 million at September 30, 2024, and $837.4 million at December 31, 2023 and had net unrealized losses of $44.5 million at December 31, 2024, $30.3 million at September 30, 2024, and $29.3 million at December 31, 2023.

At December 31, 2024, total deposits were $20.4 billion, an increase of $92.3 million or 1.8% (annualized) from the prior quarter. Average deposits at December 31, 2024 increased $583.4 million or 11.5% (annualized) from the prior quarter. Both total deposits and average deposits at December 31, 2024 increased $3.6 billion or 21.3% from December 31, 2023. The increase in deposit balances from the prior quarter was primarily due to an increase of $438.6 million in interest bearing customer deposits, partially offset by decreases in demand deposits and brokered deposits of $145.9 million and $200.4 million, respectively. The increase from the prior year was primarily related to the addition of the American National acquired deposits, as well as an increase of $669.5 million in brokered deposits.

At December 31, 2024, total borrowings were $534.6 million, a decrease of $317.6 million from September 30, 2024 and a decrease of $777.3 million from December 31, 2023. At December 31, 2024 average borrowings were $543.1 million, a decrease of $312.2 million from September 30, 2024, and a decrease of $249.6 million from December 31, 2023. The decreases in average borrowings from the prior quarter and the prior year were primarily due to repayment of short-term FHLB advances using funds from customer deposit growth.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

In reporting the results as of and for the period ended December 31, 2024, we have provided supplemental performance measures determined by methods other than in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures are a supplement to GAAP, which we use to prepare our financial statements, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. In addition, our non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to non-GAAP financial measures of other companies. We use the non-GAAP financial measures discussed herein in our analysis of our performance. 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 our 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)” in the tables within the section “Key Financial Results.”

(1) These are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes net interest income (FTE), total revenue (FTE), and total adjusted revenue (FTE), which are used in computing net interest margin (FTE), efficiency ratio (FTE) and adjusted operating efficiency ratio (FTE), 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 the 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. The Company believes tangible common equity is an important indication of its ability to grow organically and through business combinations as well as its ability to pay dividends and to engage in various capital management strategies.
--- ---
(3) These are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes that ROTCE is a meaningful supplement to GAAP financial measures and is 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)<br><br>These are non-GAAP financial measures. Adjusted operating measures exclude, as applicable, merger-related costs, strategic cost saving initiatives (principally composed of severance charges related to headcount reductions and charges for exiting leases), FDIC special assessments, legal reserves associated with our previously disclosed settlement with the CFPB, deferred tax asset write-down, gain (loss) on sale of securities, and gain on sale-leaseback transaction. The Company believes these non-GAAP adjusted measures provide investors with important information about the continuing economic results of the Company’s operations.
(5) All ratios at December 31, 2024 are estimates and subject to change pending the Company’s filing of its FR Y9-C. All other periods are presented as filed.

(6) The adjusted operating efficiency ratio (FTE) excludes, as applicable, the amortization of intangible assets, merger-related costs, FDIC special assessments, strategic cost saving initiatives (principally composed of severance charges related to headcount reductions and charges for exiting leases), legal reserves associated with our previously disclosed settlement with the CFPB, gain (loss) on sale of securities, and gain on sale-leaseback transaction. This measure is similar to the measure used by the Company when analyzing corporate performance and is also similar to the measure used for incentive compensation. The Company believes this adjusted measure provides investors with important information about the continuing economic results of the Company’s operations.
--- ---
(7) These are non-GAAP financial measures. Pre-tax pre-provision adjusted earnings excludes, as applicable, the provision for credit losses, which can fluctuate significantly from period-to-period under the CECL methodology, income tax expense, merger-related costs, strategic cost saving initiatives (principally composed of severance charges related to headcount reductions and charges for exiting leases), FDIC special assessments, legal reserves associated with our previously disclosed settlement with the CFPB, gain (loss) on sale of securities, and gain on sale-leaseback transaction. The Company believes this adjusted measure provides investors with important information about the continuing economic results of the Company’s operations.

Such forward-looking statements are based on certain 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<br>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 characterized by the use of qualified words (and their derivatives)<br>such as “expect,” “believe,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “will,” “may,” “view,” “opportunity,” “seek to,” “potential,” “continue,” “confidence,” or words of similar meaning or other statements concerning opinions or judgment of Atlantic Union Bankshares<br>Corporation (the “Company”) and our management about future events. Although we believe that our expectations with respect to forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions within the bounds of our existing knowledge of our business and operations,<br>there can be no assurance that actual future results, performance, or achievements of, or trends affecting, us will not differ materially from any projected future results, performance, achievements or trends expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Actual<br>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:<br>• market interest rates and their related impacts on macroeconomic conditions, customer and client behavior, our funding costs<br>and our loan and securities portfolios;<br>• inflation and its impacts on economic growth and customer and client behavior;<br>• adverse developments in the financial industry generally, such as bank failures, responsive measures to mitigate and manage<br>such developments, related supervisory/regulatory actions and costs, and related impacts on customer behavior;<br>• the sufficiency of liquidity and changes in our capital position;<br>• general economic and financial market conditions in the United States generally and particularly in the markets in which we<br>operate and which our loans are concentrated, including the effects of declines in real estate values, an increase in<br>unemployment levels and slowdowns in economic growth;<br>• the failure to close our proposed merger with Sandy Spring when expected or at all because remaining required regulatory<br>approvals, Company shareholder or Sandy Spring stockholder or other approvals or conditions to closing are not received or<br>satisfied on a timely basis or at all, and the risk that any regulatory approvals may result in the imposition of conditions that<br>could adversely affect the combined company or the expected benefits of the proposed merger;<br>• the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the right of the Company or Sandy Spring to<br>terminate the merger agreement;<br>• risks related to Sandy Spring’s business that we will be subject to after closing, including its commercial real estate portfolio;<br>• any change in the purchase accounting assumptions regarding the Sandy Spring assets to be acquired and liabilities to be<br>assumed used to determine the fair value of credit marks;<br>• the proposed merger with Sandy Spring may be more expensive or take longer to complete than anticipated;<br>• the diversion of management’s attention from ongoing business operations and opportunities due to the proposed merger with<br>Sandy Spring;<br>• the dilutive effect of shares of our common stock to be issued in connection with the proposed merger with Sandy Spring or<br>pursuant to the previously disclosed forward sale agreements with Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC;<br>• changes in the Company’s or Sandy Spring’s share price before closing;<br>• the impact of purchase accounting with respect to the American National acquisition, or change in the assumptions used<br>regarding the assets acquired and liabilities assumed to determine the fair value and credit marks;<br>• the possibility that the anticipated benefits of the proposed merger with Sandy Spring or the American National acquisition,<br>including anticipated cost savings and strategic gains, are not realized when expected or at all, including because of the impact<br>of, or problems arising from, the integration of the companies or because of the strength of the economy, competitive factors in<br>the areas where we do business, or other unexpected factors or events;<br>• potential adverse reactions or changes to business or employee relationships, including those resulting from the announcement<br>or completion of the proposed merger with Sandy Spring or the American National acquisition;<br>• monetary and fiscal policies of the U.S. government, including the U.S. Department of the Treasury and the Federal Reserve;<br>• the quality or composition of our loan or investment portfolios and changes therein;<br>• demand for loan products and financial services in our market areas;<br>• our ability to manage our growth or implement our growth strategy;<br>• the effectiveness of expense reduction plans;<br>• the introduction of new lines of business or new products and services;<br>• our ability to identify, recruit and retain key employees;<br>• real estate values in our lending area;<br>• changes in accounting principles, standards, rules, and interpretations, and the related impact on our financial statements;<br>• an insufficient ACL or volatility in the ACL resulting from the CECL methodology, either alone or as that may be affected by<br>changing economic conditions, credit concentrations, inflation, changing interest rates, or other factors;<br>• concentrations of loans secured by real estate, particularly commercial real estate;<br>• the effectiveness of our credit processes and management of our credit risk;<br>• our ability to compete in the market for financial services and increased competition from fintech companies;<br>• technological risks and developments, and cyber threats, attacks, or events;<br>• operational, technological, cultural, regulatory, legal, credit, and other risks associated with the exploration, consummation and<br>integration of potential future acquisitions, whether involving stock or cash consideration;<br>• the potential adverse effects of unusual and infrequently occurring events, such as weather-related disasters, terrorist acts,<br>geopolitical conflicts or public health events (such as pandemics), and of governmental and societal responses thereto; these<br>potential adverse effects may include, without limitation, adverse effects on the ability of our borrowers to satisfy their<br>obligations to us, on the value of collateral securing loans, on the demand for our loans or our other products and services, on<br>supply chains and methods used to distribute products and services, on incidents of cyberattack and fraud, on our liquidity or<br>capital positions, on risks posed by reliance on third-party service providers, on other aspects of our business operations and<br>on financial markets and economic growth;<br>• performance by our counterparties or vendors;<br>• deposit flows;<br>• the availability of financing and the terms thereof;<br>• the level of prepayments on loans and mortgage-backed securities;<br>• the effects of legislative or regulatory changes and requirements, including changes in federal, state or local tax laws;<br>• actual or potential claims, damages, and fines related to litigation or government actions, which may result in, among other<br>things, additional costs, fines, penalties, restrictions on our business activities, reputational harm, or other adverse<br>consequences;<br>• any event or development that would cause us to conclude that there was an impairment of any asset, including intangible<br>assets, such as goodwill; and<br>• other factors, many of which are beyond our control.<br>Please also refer to such other factors as discussed throughout Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” and Part II, Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended<br>December 31, 2023, and related disclosures in other filings, which have been filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

3<br>Additional Information<br>Non-GAAP Financial Measures<br>This presentation contains certain financial information determined by methods other<br>than in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States<br>(“GAAP”). These non-GAAP financial measures are a supplement to GAAP, which is<br>used to prepare our financial statements, and should not be considered in isolation or as<br>a substitute for comparable measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. In addition,<br>our non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to non-GAAP financial<br>measures of other companies. We use the non-GAAP financial measures discussed<br>herein in our analysis of our performance. Our management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide additional understanding of ongoing operations,<br>enhance comparability of results of operations with prior periods, show the effects of<br>significant gains and charges in the periods presented without the impact of items or<br>events that may obscure trends in our underlying performance, or show the potential<br>effects of accumulated other comprehensive income (or AOCI) or unrealized losses on<br>securities on our capital. This presentation also includes certain projections of non-GAAP financial measures. Due to the inherent variability and difficulty associated with<br>making accurate forecasts and projections of information that is excluded from these<br>projected non-GAAP measures, and the fact that some of the excluded information is not<br>currently ascertainable or accessible, we are unable to quantify certain amounts that<br>would be required to be included in the most directly comparable projected GAAP<br>financial measures without unreasonable effort. Consequently, no disclosure of<br>projected comparable GAAP measures is included, and no reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial information is included.<br>Please see “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Disclosures” at the end of this presentation for<br>a reconciliation to the nearest GAAP financial measure.<br>No Offer or Solicitation<br>This presentation does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy<br>any securities. No offer of securities shall be made except by means of a prospectus<br>meeting the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and no offer to sell<br>or solicitation of an offer to buy shall be made in any jurisdiction in which such offer,<br>solicitation or sale would be unlawful.<br>About Atlantic Union Bankshares Corporation<br>Headquartered in Richmond, Virginia, Atlantic Union Bankshares Corporation (NYSE:<br>AUB) is the holding company for Atlantic Union Bank.

22<br>Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Disclosures<br>We have provided supplemental performance measures determined by methods other than in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial<br>measures are a supplement to GAAP, which we use to prepare our financial statements, and should not be considered in isolation or as a<br>substitute for comparable measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. In addition, our non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable<br>to non-GAAP financial measures of other companies. We use the non-GAAP financial measures discussed herein in our analysis of our<br>performance. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide additional understanding of ongoing operations, enhance<br>comparability of results of operations with prior periods and show the effects of significant gains and charges in the periods presented without the<br>impact of items or events that may obscure trends in our underlying performance or show the potential effects of accumulated other<br>comprehensive income or unrealized losses on held to maturity securities on our capital.
---
23<br>Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Disclosures<br>Adjusted operating measures exclude, as applicable,<br>strategic cost saving initiatives (principally composed of<br>severance charges related to headcount reductions and<br>changes for existing leases), merger-related costs, FDIC<br>special assessments, legal reserves associated with our<br>previously disclosed settlement with the CFPB, deferred tax<br>asset write-down, gain (loss) on sale of securities, and gain<br>on sale-leaseback transaction. The Company believes these<br>non-GAAP adjusted measures provide investors with<br>important information about the continuing economic results<br>of the Company’s operations. The Company believes net<br>interest income (FTE), total revenue (FTE), and total adjusted<br>revenue (FTE), which are used in computing net interest<br>margin (FTE), efficiency ratio (FTE) and adjusted operating<br>efficiency ratio (FTE), provide valuable additional insight into<br>the net interest margin and the efficiency ratio by adjusting for<br>differences in tax treatment of interest income sources. The<br>entire FTE adjustment is attributable to interest income on<br>earning assets, which is used in computing the yield on<br>earning assets. Interest expense and the related cost of<br>interest-bearing liabilities and cost of funds ratios are not<br>affected by the FTE components.
