10 Consistent NIM performance aided by peer-leading loan yield • Regions consistently produces above peer median net interest margin, and at YE the percentage of cash to total assets for Regions was almost 2x the peer median providing further upside. • Forward starting hedging strategy put in place beginning in 2018 contributed to Regions' net interest margin being near the top of our peer group in 2020 and 2021. • Supported by hedging strategy, loan yield has improved from slightly below peer median to #1 in the peer group in 2021.

Expect similar behavior to pre-pandemic portfolio, with a beta ~10% for the first 100 bps Fed increase and 30% through the cycle. • Comprised mostly of small business accounts, stimulus-receiving customers(2), & wealth clients. • Balances continued to grow throughout 2021, though rate of growth has recently moderated. • ~$12B; 31% of growth • Expected beta of 40-60% • Comprised largely by Corporate/Commercial clients. The expectation is that some of these clients will seek alternative investments as rates rise, and/or will seek higher deposit rates. • ~$14B; 33% of growth • Expected beta of 80-100% Low-beta deposits have grown considerably. Other pandemic era increases (approx. 2/3's) are assumed to have a ~70% beta.

16 Adjusted(1) NIM as Rates Rise (1) Adj. NIM excludes PPP and excess cash over $750M. Adjusted NIM is non-GAAP; see appendix for historical reconciliations. Upper End of Fed Funds Range 3.40% 3.65% 3.80% 3.85% 3.38% 3.58% 3.70% 3.75% 3.35% 3.50% 3.60% 3.65% 0.25% 1.00% 2.00% 2.50% Adjusted(1) NIM Range by Rate Level Assumptions As rates increase to more normal levels, Regions' NIM will naturally expand over the coming years Mid-point assumes: • Expected balance sheet growth consistent with 4%-5% average loan growth • Deposit betas on stable balances consistent with the prior rate cycle; Surge deposit beta repricing/runoff of ~70% • Modest steepness in the yield curve with long-term rates remaining 25bps over Fed Funds over time Range assumes: • Upper-end: Lower deposit beta and steeper yield curve • Lower-end: Higher deposit beta and flat to inverted yield curve Opportunities: • Outperformance in surge deposit repricing/ retention • No incremental securities additions included; potential additions could impact specific periods
17 While not included in the outlook, opportunities exist if surge deposits are retained with lower betas (assume 70% through-the-cycle deposit beta), or if excess cash is able to be deployed into loans/securities NII is positioned to benefit from higher rates, as well as natural loan growth and strategic investments. Hedge proceeds (~$1.5B total return) and the capital generated have been invested into strategically important businesses, such as Ascentium and EnerBank. 2021 2022 2023 2024 NII Drivers - Current Support Relative Impact of Future NII Drivers(1) NII Drivers - Future Growth Expecte d NII g rowth of 6 - 8 % CAGRHedge Income Forward Rates EnerBank PPP Organic Growth Hedges protected NII in declining rates and will continue to support NII if rates are lower for longer Regions' asset sensitive position will benefit meaningfully with the potential for higher rates and a steeper yield curve The EnerBank acquisition closed in 4Q 2021, with additional growth opportunities expected PPP supported earnings through the Pandemic but will subside after 2021 Regions is well positioned to grow loans as the economic recovery continues NII Drivers - Additional Opportunity (1) Based on market forward rate projections as of 1/31/2022: 2021: Avg 1m LIBOR 10bps, Avg 10yr UST 1.44%; 2022: Avg 1m LIBOR 0.78%, Avg 10yr UST 1.89%; 2023: Avg 1m LIBOR 1.61%, Avg 10yr UST 2.07%; 2024: Avg 1m LIBOR 1.77%, Avg 10yr UST 2.21%.

55 LIBOR Transition Readiness & the Path Forward Moving to Next Phase of Transition Financial Considerations & Potential Impact As of January 1, 2022 Regions is no longer originating LIBOR loans. Regions has taken steps both systematically and through training to ensure that no new LIBOR loans are added to the balance sheet in accordance with guidance from Federal Regulators. Focus now turns to remediation of existing LIBOR loans and derivatives. Transitioning away from LIBOR will happen in two ways: Balance Sheet/ Earnings Performance Accounting/Tax Balance Sheet Hedges/ Client Derivatives Loan Pricing Commercial/ Consumer Preference • Balance Sheet Hedges: Developments on hedge accounting are being closely monitored. • Market Activity: Derivatives markets have slowly begun to adopt SOFR, and markets for BSBY/AMERIBOR remain limited. • Asset/Liability Management: While Regions controls the transition of certain portions of the balance sheet (e.g., bilateral loans), others will be driven by market dynamics (e.g., debt, securities). • Loan Pricing: Pricing of alternatives continues to evolve, especially SOFR Credit Spread Adjustments. • Tax Implications: Some uncertainty remains on safe harbors for tax treatment. Highlights Dec 31, 2021 Last Day Regions Originated LIBOR loans Daily SOFR Term SOFR BSBY AMERIBOR Alternative Rate Offerings at Regions Fallback Amendment • After June 30, 2023 Regions will implement the fallback language in existing LIBOR contracts • Regions has reviewed all LIBOR contracts and categorized fallback • Regions will communicate with customers prior to fallback to ensure they are aware of the pending index changes • Some contracts will be amended prior to cessation to change the index • Contracts might be amended based on fallback language requirements or on customer desire • Regions will ensure that amended contracts that fall within guidance will be identified for tax/accounting relief for LIBOR transition

62 Management uses pre-tax pre-provision income (non-GAAP) and adjusted pre-tax pre-provision income (non-GAAP), as well as the adjusted efficiency ratio (non-GAAP) and the adjusted fee income ratio (non-GAAP) to monitor performance and believes these measures provide meaningful information to investors. Non-interest expense (GAAP) is presented excluding certain adjustments to arrive at adjusted non-interest expense (non-GAAP), which is the numerator for the efficiency ratio. Non-interest income (GAAP) is presented excluding certain adjustments to arrive at adjusted non-interest income (non-GAAP), which is the numerator for the fee income ratio. Adjusted non-interest income (non-GAAP) and adjusted non-interest expense (non- GAAP) are used to determine adjusted pre-tax pre-provision income (non-GAAP). Net interest income (GAAP) on a taxable-equivalent basis and non-interest income are added together to arrive at total revenue on a taxable-equivalent basis. Adjustments are made to arrive at adjusted total revenue on a taxable-equivalent basis (non-GAAP), which is the denominator for the fee income and efficiency ratios. Regions believes that the exclusion of these adjustments provides a meaningful base for period-to-period comparisons, which management believes will assist investors in analyzing the operating results of the Company and predicting future performance. These non-GAAP financial measures are also used by management to assess the performance of Regions’ business. It is possible that the activities related to the adjustments may recur; however, management does not consider the activities related to the adjustments to be indications of ongoing operations. Regions believes that presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures will permit investors to assess the performance of the Company on the same basis as that applied by management. The allowance for credit losses (ACL) as a percentage of total loans is an important ratio, especially during periods of economic stress. Management believes this ratio provides investors with meaningful additional information about credit loss allowance levels when the impact of SBA's Paycheck Protection Program loans, which are fully backed by the U.S. government, and any related allowance are excluded from total loans and total allowance which are the denominator and numerator, respectively, used in the ACL ratio. This adjusted ACL ratio represents a non-GAAP financial measure. Tangible common stockholders’ equity ratios have become a focus of some investors and management believes they may assist investors in analyzing the capital position of the Company absent the effects of intangible assets and preferred stock. Analysts and banking regulators have assessed Regions’ capital adequacy using the tangible common stockholders’ equity measure. Because tangible common stockholders’ equity is not formally defined by GAAP or prescribed in any amount by federal banking regulations it is currently considered to be a non- GAAP financial measure and other entities may calculate it differently than Regions’ disclosed calculations. Since analysts and banking regulators may assess Regions’ capital adequacy using tangible common stockholders’ equity, management believes that it is useful to provide investors the ability to assess Regions’ capital adequacy on this same basis. Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied and are not audited. Although these non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by stakeholders in the evaluation of a company, they have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for analyses of results as reported under GAAP. In particular, a measure of earnings that excludes selected items does not represent the amount that effectively accrues directly to stockholders. Management and the Board of Directors utilize non-GAAP measures as follows: • Preparation of Regions' operating budgets • Monthly financial performance reporting • Monthly close-out reporting of consolidated results (management only) • Presentation to investors of company performance • Metrics for incentive compensation Non-GAAP information

74 Forward-Looking Statements This presentation may include forward-looking statements as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are not based on historical information, but rather are related to future operations, strategies, financial results or other developments. Forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations as well as certain assumptions and estimates made by, and information available to, management at the time the statements are made. Those statements are based on general assumptions and are subject to various risks, and because they also relate to the future they are likewise subject to inherent uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from the views, beliefs and projections expressed in such statements. Therefore, we caution you against relying on any of these forward-looking statements. These risks, uncertainties and other factors include, but are not limited to, those described below: • Current and future economic and market conditions in the United States generally or in the communities we serve (in particular the Southeastern United States), including the effects of possible declines in property values, increases in unemployment rates, financial market disruptions and potential reductions of economic growth, which may adversely affect our lending and other businesses and our financial results and conditions. • Possible changes in trade, monetary and fiscal policies of, and other activities undertaken by, governments, agencies, central banks and similar organizations, which could have a material adverse effect on our earnings. • Possible changes in market interest rates or capital markets could adversely affect our revenue and expense, the value of assets and obligations, and the availability and cost of capital and liquidity. • The impact of pandemics, including the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, on our businesses, operations, and financial results and conditions. The duration and severity of any pandemic, including the COVID-19 pandemic, could disrupt the global economy, adversely affect our capital and liquidity position, impair the ability of borrowers to repay outstanding loans and increase our allowance for credit losses, impair collateral values, and result in lost revenue or additional expenses. • Any impairment of our goodwill or other intangibles, any repricing of assets, or any adjustment of valuation allowances on our deferred tax assets due to changes in tax law, adverse changes in the economic environment, declining operations of the reporting unit or other factors. • The effect of new tax legislation and/or interpretation of existing tax law, which may impact our earnings, capital ratios, and our ability to return capital to shareholders. • Possible changes in the creditworthiness of customers and the possible impairment of the collectability of loans and leases, including operating leases. • Changes in the speed of loan prepayments, loan origination and sale volumes, charge-offs, credit loss provisions or actual credit losses where our allowance for credit losses may not be adequate to cover our eventual losses. • Possible acceleration of prepayments on mortgage-backed securities due to low interest rates, and the related acceleration of premium amortization on those securities. • Loss of customer checking and savings account deposits as customers pursue other, higher-yield investments, which could increase our funding costs. • Possible changes in consumer and business spending and saving habits and the related effect on our ability to increase assets and to attract deposits, which could adversely affect our net income. • Our ability to effectively compete with other traditional and non-traditional financial services companies, including fintechs, some of whom possess greater financial resources than we do or are subject to different regulatory standards than we are. • Our inability to develop and gain acceptance from current and prospective customers for new products and services and the enhancement of existing products and services to meet customers’ needs and respond to emerging technological trends in a timely manner could have a negative impact on our revenue. • Our inability to keep pace with technological changes, including those related to the offering of digital banking and financial services, could result in losing business to competitors. • Changes in laws and regulations affecting our businesses, including legislation and regulations relating to bank products and services, as well as changes in the enforcement and interpretation of such laws and regulations by applicable governmental and self-regulatory agencies, including as a result of the changes in U.S. presidential administration, control of the U.S. Congress, and changes in personnel at the bank regulatory agencies, which could require us to change certain business practices, increase compliance risk, reduce our revenue, impose additional costs on us, or otherwise negatively affect our businesses. • Our capital actions, including dividend payments, common stock repurchases, or redemptions of preferred stock, must not cause us to fall below minimum capital ratio requirements, with applicable buffers taken into account, and must comply with other requirements and restrictions under law or imposed by our regulators, which may impact our ability to return capital to shareholders.

75 • Our ability to comply with stress testing and capital planning requirements (as part of the CCAR process or otherwise) may continue to require a significant investment of our managerial resources due to the importance of such tests and requirements. • Our ability to comply with applicable capital and liquidity requirements (including, among other things, the Basel III capital standards), including our ability to generate capital internally or raise capital on favorable terms, and if we fail to meet requirements, our financial condition and market perceptions of us could be negatively impacted. • The effects of any developments, changes or actions relating to any litigation or regulatory proceedings brought against us or any of our subsidiaries. • The costs, including possibly incurring fines, penalties, or other negative effects (including reputational harm) of any adverse judicial, administrative, or arbitral rulings or proceedings, regulatory enforcement actions, or other legal actions to which we or any of our subsidiaries are a party, and which may adversely affect our results. • Our ability to manage fluctuations in the value of assets and liabilities and off-balance sheet exposure so as to maintain sufficient capital and liquidity to support our businesses. • Our ability to execute on our strategic and operational plans, including our ability to fully realize the financial and nonfinancial benefits relating to our strategic initiatives. • The risks and uncertainties related to our acquisition or divestiture of businesses, including our recently completed acquisitions of EnerBank, Sabal, and Clearsight, and risks related to such acquisitions, including that the expected synergies, cost savings and other financial or other benefits may not be realized within the expected timeframes, or might be less than projected; difficulties in integrating the businesses; and the inability of Regions to effectively cross-sell products following these acquisitions. • The success of our marketing efforts in attracting and retaining customers. • Our ability to recruit and retain talented and experienced personnel to assist in the development, management and operation of our products and services may be affected by changes in laws and regulations in effect from time to time. • Fraud or misconduct by our customers, employees or business partners. • Any inaccurate or incomplete information provided to us by our customers or counterparties. • Inability of our framework to manage risks associated with our businesses, such as credit risk and operational risk, including third-party vendors and other service providers, which could, among other things, result in a breach of operating or security systems as a result of a cyber attack or similar act or failure to deliver our services effectively. • Dependence on key suppliers or vendors to obtain equipment and other supplies for our businesses on acceptable terms. • The inability of our internal controls and procedures to prevent, detect or mitigate any material errors or fraudulent acts. • The effects of geopolitical instability, including wars, conflicts, civil unrest, and terrorist attacks and the potential impact, directly or indirectly, on our businesses. • The effects of man-made and natural disasters, including fires, floods, droughts, tornadoes, hurricanes, and environmental damage (specifically in the Southeastern United States), which may negatively affect our operations and/or our loan portfolios and increase our cost of conducting business. The severity and frequency of future earthquakes, fires, hurricanes, tornadoes, droughts, floods and other weather-related events are difficult to predict and may be exacerbated by global climate change. • Changes in commodity market prices and conditions could adversely affect the cash flows of our borrowers operating in industries that are impacted by changes in commodity prices (including businesses indirectly impacted by commodities prices such as businesses that transport commodities or manufacture equipment used in the production of commodities), which could impair their ability to service any loans outstanding to them and/or reduce demand for loans in those industries. • Our ability to identify and address cyber-security risks such as data security breaches, malware, ransomware, “denial of service” attacks, “hacking” and identity theft, including account take-overs, a failure of which could disrupt our businesses and result in the disclosure of and/or misuse or misappropriation of confidential or proprietary information, disruption or damage to our systems, increased costs, losses, or adverse effects to our reputation. • Our ability to achieve our expense management initiatives.

76 • Market replacement of LIBOR and the related effect on our LIBOR-based financial products and contracts, including, but not limited to, derivative products, debt obligations, deposits, investments, and loans. • Possible downgrades in our credit ratings or outlook could, among other negative impacts, increase the costs of funding from capital markets. • The effects of problems encountered by other financial institutions that adversely affect us or the banking industry generally could require us to change certain business practices, reduce our revenue, impose additional costs on us, or otherwise negatively affect our businesses. • The effects of the failure of any component of our business infrastructure provided by a third party could disrupt our businesses, result in the disclosure of and/or misuse of confidential information or proprietary information, increase our costs, negatively affect our reputation, and cause losses. • Our ability to receive dividends from our subsidiaries, in particular Regions Bank, could affect our liquidity and ability to pay dividends to shareholders. • Changes in accounting policies or procedures as may be required by the FASB or other regulatory agencies could materially affect our financial statements and how we report those results, and expectations and preliminary analyses relating to how such changes will affect our financial results could prove incorrect. • Fluctuations in the price of our common stock and inability to complete stock repurchases in the time frame and/or on the terms anticipated. • The effects of any damage to our reputation resulting from developments related to any of the items identified above. • Other risks identified from time to time in reports that we file with the SEC.
