United Bankshares, Inc. Announces Earnings

for the Third Quarter and First Nine Months of 2024

WASHINGTON, D.C. and CHARLESTON, WV-- United Bankshares, Inc. (NASDAQ: UBSI) (“United”), today reported earnings for the third quarter of 2024 of $95.3 million, or $0.70 per diluted share. Third quarter of 2024 results produced annualized returns on average assets, average equity, and average tangible equity, a non-GAAP measure, of 1.28%, 7.72%, and 12.59%, respectively.

“We are excited to announce this quarter’s earnings,” stated Richard M. Adams, Jr., United’s Chief Executive Officer. “It was another successful quarter for UBSI, and we continue to perform at a high level. Profitability metrics stayed strong, growth trends continued upward, and expenses were well-controlled. In addition, asset quality, liquidity, and capital levels remain a source of strength.”

United previously announced during the second quarter of 2024 that it entered into a definitive merger agreement with Piedmont Bancorp, Inc. (“Piedmont”). The combined organization will have approximately $32 billion in assets and a network of over 240 locations across eight states and Washington, D.C., in some of the most desirable banking markets in the nation. The merger is expected to close late in the fourth quarter of 2024 or early in the first quarter of 2025, subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

Earnings for the second quarter of 2024 were $96.5 million, or $0.71 per diluted share, and annualized returns on average assets, average equity, and average tangible equity were 1.32%, 7.99%, and 13.12%, respectively. Earnings for the third quarter of 2023 were $96.2 million, or $0.71 per diluted share, and annualized returns on average assets, average equity, and average tangible equity were 1.31%, 8.14%, and 13.71%, respectively.

Third quarter of 2024 compared to the second quarter of 2024

Net interest income for the third quarter of 2024 was $230.3 million, an increase of $4.5 million, or 2%, from the second quarter of 2024. Tax-equivalent net interest income, a non-GAAP measure which adjusts for the tax-favored status of income from certain loans and investments, of $231.1 million for the third quarter of 2024 also increased $4.5 million, or 2%, from the second quarter of 2024. The increase in net interest income and tax-equivalent net interest income was driven by an increase in average short-term investments, a higher yield on average net loans and loans held for sale, and a decrease in average long-term borrowings partially offset by an increase in average interest-bearing deposits as well as a higher average rate paid on deposits. Average short-term investments increased $457.0 million, or 49%, from the second quarter of 2024 primarily driven by cash received from deposit growth. The yield on average net loans and loans held for sale increased 6 basis points to 6.20% for the third quarter of 2024. As previously disclosed, the second quarter of 2024 included a $654 thousand interest recovery from a commercial real estate nonaccrual loan payoff. Average long-term borrowings decreased $541.8 million, or 42%, from the second quarter of 2024. Average interest-bearing deposits increased $659.2 million, or 4%, from the second quarter of 2024. The yield on average interest-bearing deposits increased 10 basis points to 3.28% for the third quarter of 2024. The net interest margin of 3.52% for the third quarter of 2024 was an increase of 2 basis points from the net interest margin of 3.50% for the second quarter of 2024.

The provision for credit losses was $6.9 million for the third quarter of 2024 as compared to $5.8 million for the second quarter of 2024.

Noninterest income for the third quarter of 2024 was $31.9 million, an increase of $1.7 million, or 6%, from the second quarter of 2024. The increase in noninterest income was driven by an increase in income from mortgage banking activities of $643 thousand as well as increases in several additional categories of noninterest income, none of which were significant. The increase in income from mortgage banking activities was primarily due to higher mortgage loan sale volume and a higher quarter-end valuation of mortgage loans held for sale. Additionally, in comparison to the second quarter of 2024, an increase in mortgage loan servicing income was mostly offset by higher net losses on investment securities. Mortgage loan servicing income was $7.4 million for the third quarter of 2024, an increase of $6.6 million from the second quarter of 2024. During the third quarter of 2024, United sold its remaining mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) with an aggregate unpaid principal balance of $1.1 billion at a gain of $7.1 million. Net losses on investment securities were $6.7 million for the third quarter of 2024 compared to $218 thousand for the second quarter of 2024. During the third quarter of 2024, United sold $196.7 million of available for sale (“AFS”) investment securities at a loss of $6.9 million. Net losses on investment securities for the second quarter of 2024 included a $6.9 million gain on the VISA share exchange and a $6.8 million loss on the sale of $102.7 million of AFS investment securities.

Noninterest expense for the third quarter of 2024 of $135.3 million was flat from the second quarter of 2024, increasing $565 thousand, or less than 1%. A $1.5 million increase in other noninterest expense from the second quarter of 2024, driven by higher amounts of certain general operating expenses, was mostly offset by smaller decreases in several other categories of noninterest expense. Within other noninterest expense, merger-related expenses for the third quarter of 2024 were $332 thousand compared to $1.3 million for the second quarter of 2024.

For the third quarter of 2024, income tax expense was $24.6 million as compared to $18.9 million for the second quarter of 2024. The increase was driven by higher pre-tax earnings and the impact of discrete tax benefits recognized in the second quarter of 2024. United’s effective tax rate was 20.6% and 16.4% for the third quarter of 2024 and second quarter of 2024, respectively.

Third quarter of 2024 compared to the thirdquarter of 2023

Earnings for the third quarter of 2024 were $95.3 million, or $0.70 per diluted share, as compared to earnings of $96.2 million, or $0.71 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2023.

Net interest income for the third quarter of 2024 of $230.3 million was flat from the third quarter of 2023, increasing $1.8 million, or less than 1%. Tax-equivalent net interest income for the third quarter of 2024 was also flat from the third quarter of 2023, increasing $1.8 million, or less than 1%. The slight increase in net interest income and tax-equivalent net interest income was primarily due to a higher yield on average net loans and loans held for sale, a decrease in average long-term borrowings, organic loan growth, and an increase in average short-term investments. This increase in net interest income and tax-equivalent net interest income was partially offset by the impact of deposit rate repricing and an increase in average interest-bearing deposits. The yield on average earning assets increased 33 basis points from the third quarter of 2023 to 5.85% driven by an increase in the yield on average net loans and loans held for sale of 28 basis points. Average long-term borrowings decreased $842.2 million, or 53%, from the third quarter of 2023. Average earning assets for the third quarter of 2024 increased $363.7 million, or 1%, from the third quarter of 2023 due to a $610.4 million increase in average net loans and loans held for sale and a $535.2 million increase in average short-term investments partially offset by a $781.9 million decrease in average investment securities. The yield on average interest-bearing deposits increased 58 basis points from the third quarter of 2023. Average interest-bearing deposits increased $1.4 billion, or 9%, from the third quarter of 2023. The net interest margin for the third quarter of 2024 and 2023 was 3.52% and 3.54%, respectively.

The provision for credit losses was $6.9 million for the third quarter of 2024 as compared to $5.9 million for the third quarter of 2023.

Noninterest income for the third quarter of 2024 was $31.9 million, which was a decrease of $1.7 million, or 5%, from the third quarter of 2023. Income from mortgage banking activities decreased $3.0 million from the third quarter of 2023 mainly due to lower mortgage loan origination and sale volume. This decrease in income from mortgage banking activities was partially offset by increases in several categories of noninterest income, none of which were significant. Additionally, in comparison to the third quarter of 2023, an increase in mortgage loan servicing income was mostly offset by higher net losses on investment securities. Mortgage loan servicing income was $7.4 million for the third quarter of 2024, an increase of $6.5 million from the third quarter of 2023 driven by the aforementioned $7.1 million gain on the sale of MSRs in the third quarter of 2024. Net losses on investment securities were $6.7 million for the third quarter of 2024 as compared to $181 thousand for the third quarter of 2023 driven by the aforementioned $6.9 million loss on sale of AFS investment securities in the third quarter of 2024.

Noninterest expense for the third quarter of 2024 was flat from the third quarter of 2023, increasing $109 thousand, or less than 1%. A $1.3 million increase in other noninterest expense from the third quarter of 2023, driven by higher amounts of certain general operating expenses, was mostly offset by smaller decreases in several other categories of noninterest expense.

Income tax expense for the third quarter of 2024 was flat from the third quarter of 2023, decreasing $130 thousand, or less than 1%, primarily due to slightly lower pre-tax earnings partially offset by a slightly higher effective tax rate. United’s effective tax rate was 20.6% and 20.5% for the third quarter of 2024 and third quarter of 2023, respectively.

First nine months of 2024 compared to the first nine months of 2023

Earnings for the first nine months of 2024 were $278.6 million, or $2.06 per diluted share, and annualized returns on average assets, average equity, and average tangible equity were 1.26%, 7.65%, and 12.57%, respectively. Earnings for the first nine months of 2023 were $286.9 million, or $2.12 per diluted share, and annualized returns on average assets, average equity, and average tangible equity were 1.31%, 8.27%, and 14.03%, respectively.

Net interest income for the first nine months of 2024 decreased $11.8 million, or 2%, from the first nine months of 2023. Tax-equivalent net interest income for the first nine months of 2024 decreased $12.4 million, or 2%, from the first nine months of 2023. The decrease in net interest income and tax-equivalent net interest income was primarily due to higher interest expense driven by deposit rate repricing, an increase in average interest-bearing deposits, and a decrease in acquired loan accretion income. These decreases were partially offset by a higher yield on average net loans and loans held for sale, organic loan growth, and a decrease in average long-term borrowings. The yield on average interest-bearing deposits increased 88 basis points from the first nine months of 2023. Average interest-bearing deposits increased $1.4 billion from the first nine months of 2023. Acquired loan accretion income for the first nine months of 2024 of $7.3 million was a decrease of $1.2 million from the first nine months of 2023. The yield on average earning assets increased 46 basis points from the first nine months of 2023 to 5.78% driven by an increase in the yield on average net loans and loans held for sale of 39 basis points. Average net loans and loans held for sale increased $773.3 million from the first nine months of 2023. Average long-term borrowings decreased $924.2 million from the first nine months of 2023. Additionally, average investment securities decreased $857.4 million, or 19%, from the first nine months of 2023 while the yield on average investment securities increased 36 basis points from the first nine months of 2023. The net interest margin for the first nine months of 2024 and 2023 was 3.49% and 3.56%, respectively.

The provision for credit losses was $18.5 million for the first nine months 2024 as compared to $24.3 million for the first nine months of 2023.

Noninterest income for the first nine months of 2024 was $94.4 million, which was a decrease of $7.2 million, or 7%, from the first nine months of 2023. Income from mortgage banking activities decreased $8.1 million from the first nine months of 2023 mainly due to lower mortgage loan origination and sale volume. Mortgage loan servicing income for the first nine months of 2024 of $9.0 million included a $7.1 million gain on the sale of MSRs while mortgage loan servicing income for the first nine months of 2023 of $13.0 million included $8.3 million in gains on sales of MSRs with the remainder of the decrease due to lower serviced loan balances. Fees from brokerage services increased $2.7 million from the first nine months of 2023 primarily due to higher

volume. Net losses on investment securities of $7.0 million for the first nine months of 2024 included $13.7 million in losses on sales of AFS investment securities partially offset by a $6.9 million gain on the VISA share exchange. Net losses on investment securities of $7.9 million for the first nine months of 2023 were driven by a $7.2 million loss on sale of AFS investment securities during the second quarter of 2023.

Noninterest expense for the first nine months of 2024 was $410.9 million, an increase of $2.9 million, or 1%, from the first nine months of 2023 driven by increases in other noninterest expense of $4.3 million, employee compensation of $3.3 million, and FDIC insurance expense of $2.1 million partially offset by decreases in the expense for the reserve for unfunded loan commitments of $4.3 million and mortgage loan servicing expense of $2.2 million. The increase in employee compensation was driven by higher employee incentives, base salaries, and employee severance associated with the previously announced mortgage delivery channel consolidation partially offset by lower employee commissions related to mortgage banking production. The increase in other noninterest expense was primarily driven by a $2.2 million increase in tax credit amortization, $1.6 million in merger-related expenses, and higher amounts of certain general operating expenses. The increase in FDIC insurance expense was driven by $1.8 million of expense recognized in the first quarter of 2024 for the FDIC special assessment. The decrease in the expense for the reserve for unfunded loan commitments was driven by a decrease in the outstanding balance of loan commitments. The decrease in mortgage loan servicing expense was driven by the sales of MSRs.

For the first nine months of 2024, income tax expense was $64.9 million as compared to $72.7 million for the first nine months of 2023 primarily due to lower pre-tax earnings and the impact of discrete tax benefits recognized in the second quarter of 2024. United’s effective tax rate was 18.9% for the first nine months of 2024 and 20.2% for the first nine months of 2023.

Credit Quality

United’s asset quality continues to be sound. At September 30, 2024, non-performing loans (“NPLs”) were $65.2 million, or 0.30% of loans & leases, net of unearned income. Total non-performing assets (“NPAs”) were $65.4 million, including other real estate owned (“OREO”) of $169 thousand, or 0.22% of total assets at September 30, 2024. At June 30, 2024, NPLs were $65.3 million, or 0.30% of loans & leases, net of unearned income.

At December 31, 2023, NPLs were $45.5 million, or 0.21% of loans & leases, net of unearned income. Total NPAs were $48.1 million, including OREO of $2.6 million, or 0.16% of total assets at December 31, 2023. As previously disclosed in the first quarter of 2024, the increase in NPLs and NPAs from year-end was primarily driven by one commercial & industrial loan relationship. NPLs decreased $9.1 million from $74.4 million at March 31, 2024 primarily due to partial paydowns of the aforementioned commercial & industrial loan relationship.

As of September 30, 2024, the allowance for loan & lease losses was $270.8 million, or 1.25% of loans & leases, net of unearned income. At June 30, 2024 the allowance for loan & lease losses was $267.4 million, or 1.24% of loans & leases, net of unearned income.

Capital

United continues to be well-capitalized based upon regulatory guidelines.

The September 30, 2024 ratios reflect United’s election of a five-year transition provision, allowed by the Federal Reserve Board and other federal banking agencies in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, to delay for two years the full impact of CECL on regulatory capital, followed by a three-year transition period. The regulatory requirements for a well-capitalized financial institution are a risk-based capital ratio of 10.0%, a Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 6.5%, a Tier 1 capital ratio of 8.0%, and a leverage ratio of 5.0%. United did not repurchase any shares of its common stock during 2024 or 2023.

Cautionary Statements

The Company is required under generally accepted accounting principles to evaluate subsequent events through the filing of itsSeptember 30, 2024 consolidated financial statements on Form 10-Q. As a result, the Company will continue to evaluate the impact of any subsequent events on critical accounting assumptions and estimatesmade as of September 30, 2024 and will adjust amounts preliminarily reported, if necessary.

Use ofnon-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains certain financial measures thatare not recognized under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Generally, United has presented these “non-GAAP” financial measures because it believes that these measuresprovide meaningful additional information to assist in the evaluation of United’s results of operations or financial position. Presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is consistent with howUnited’s management evaluates its performance internally and these non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties in the evaluation ofcompanies in the banking industry.

Specifically, this press release contains certain references to financial measures identifiedas tax-equivalent (FTE) net interest income, average tangible equity, return on average tangible equity, and tangible book value per share. Management believes thesenon-GAAP financial measures to be helpful in understanding United’s results of operations or financial position.

Net interest income is presented in this press release on a tax-equivalent basis. The tax-equivalent basis adjusts for the tax-favored status of income from certain loans and investments. Although this is a non-GAAPmeasure, United’s management believes this measure is more widely used within the financial services industry and provides better comparability of net interest income arising from taxable and tax-exemptsources. United uses this measure to monitor net interest income performance and to manage its balance sheet composition. The tax-equivalent adjustment combines amounts of interest income on federallynontaxable loans and investment securities using the statutory federal income tax rate of 21%.

Tangible equity is calculated asGAAP total shareholders’ equity minus total intangible assets. Tangible equity can thus be considered the most conservative valuation of the company. Tangible equity is also presented on a per common share basis and considering net income, areturn on average tangible equity. Management provides these amounts to facilitate the understanding of as well as to assess the quality and composition of United’s capital structure. By removing the effect of intangible assets that result frommerger and acquisition activity, the “permanent” items of equity are presented. These measures, along with others, are used by management to analyze capital adequacy and performance.

Where non-GAAP financial measures are used, the comparable GAAP financial measure, as well asreconciliation to that comparable GAAP financial measure can be found in the attached financial information tables to this press release. Investors should recognize that United’s presentation of thesenon-GAAP financial measures might not be comparable to similarly titled measures at other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered asubstitute for GAAP basis measures and United strongly encourages a review of its condensed consolidated financial statements in their entirety.

This presentation and statements made by United Bankshares, Inc. (“UBSI”) and its management contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These forward-looking statements are intended to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements about (i) the benefits of the merger between Piedmont Bancorp, Inc. (“Piedmont”) and UBSI (the “Merger”), including future financial and operating results, cost savings enhancements to revenue and accretion to reported earnings that may be realized from the Merger; (ii) UBSI’s and Piedmont’s plans, objectives, expectations and intentions and other statements contained in this press release that are not historical facts; and (iii) other statements identified by words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “targets,” “projects,” “will,” or words of similar meaning generally intended to identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based upon the current beliefs and expectations of the respective managements of UBSI and Piedmont and are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the control of UBSI and Piedmont. In addition, these forward-looking statements are subject to assumptions with respect to future business strategies and decisions that are subject to change. Actual results may differ materially from the anticipated results discussed in these forward-looking statements because of possible uncertainties.   The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in the forward-looking statements: (1) the businesses of UBSI and Piedmont may not be combined successfully, or such combination may take longer, be more difficult, time-consuming or costly to accomplish than expected; (2) the expected growth opportunities or cost savings from the Merger may not be fully realized or may take longer to realize than expected; (3) deposit attrition, operating costs, customer losses and business disruption following the Merger, including adverse effects on relationships with employees, may be greater than expected; (4) the regulatory approvals required for the Merger may not be obtained on the proposed terms or on the anticipated schedule or may result in the imposition of conditions that could adversely affect the combined company or the expected benefits of the transaction; (5) legislative or regulatory changes, including changes in accounting standards, may adversely affect the businesses in which UBSI and Piedmont are engaged; (6) the possibility of increased scrutiny by, and/or additional regulatory requirements of, governmental authorities as a result of the transaction or the size, scope and complexity of UBSI’s business operations following the Merger; (7) competitive pressures on product pricing and services; (8) success, impact, and timing of UBSI’s business strategies, including market acceptance of any new products or services; (9) disruption from the Merger making it more difficult to maintain relationships with employees, customers or other parties with whom UBSI and Piedmont have business relationships; (10) diversion of management time on Merger-related issues; (11) risks relating to the potential dilutive effect of the shares of UBSI common stock to be issued in the Merger; (12) reputational risk and the reaction of each company’s customers, suppliers, employees or other business partners to the transaction; (13) the failure of the closing conditions in the merger agreement to be satisfied, or any unexpected delay in closing the transaction or the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the merger agreement; (14) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against UBSI or Piedmont; (15) general competitive, economic, political and market conditions and other factors that may affect future results of UBSI and Piedmont, including changes in asset quality and credit risk; the inability to sustain revenue and earnings growth; changes in interest rates and capital markets; inflation; customer borrowing, repayment, investment and deposit practices; the impact, extent and timing of technological changes; capital management activities; and other actions of the Federal Reserve Board and legislative and regulatory actions and reforms; (16) uncertainty in U.S. fiscal and monetary policy, including the interest rate policies of the Federal Reserve Board; (17) volatility and disruptions in global capital and credit markets; and (18) the nature, extent, timing, and results of governmental actions, examinations, reviews, reforms, regulations, and interpretations. Additional factors, that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements are discussed in UBSI’s reports (such as Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K) filed with the SEC and available on the SEC’s Internet site (http://www.sec.gov). UBSI and Piedmont caution that the foregoing list of factors is not exclusive. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements concerning the proposed transaction or other matters attributable to UBSI or Piedmont or any person acting on their behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements above. UBSI and Piedmont do not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect circumstances or events that occur after the date the forward-looking statements are made.

Linked-Quarter (LQ) Net Income was $95.3 million in 3Q24 compared to $96.5 million in 2Q24, with diluted EPS of $0.70 in 3Q24 compared to $0.71 in 2Q24. Net Interest Income increased $4.5 million driven by an increase in average short-term investments, a higher yield on average net loans and loans held for sale, and a decrease in average long-term borrowings partially offset by an increase in average interest-bearing deposits as well as a higher average rate paid on deposits. Provision Expense was $6.9 million in 3Q24 compared to $5.8 million in 2Q24. Noninterest Income increased $1.7 million compared to 2Q24 driven by increases in several categories of noninterest income. During 3Q24, United sold its remaining mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) with an aggregate unpaid principal balance of $1.1 billion at a gain of $7.1 million. United also sold $196.7 million of AFS investment securities at a loss of $6.9 million. Noninterest Expense increased $0.6 million compared to 2Q24 driven by a $1.5 million increase in other noninterest expense. The increase in other noninterest expense was mainly due to higher amounts of certain general operating expenses, partially offset by decreases in several categories including a decrease of $0.9 million in merger-related expenses related to the Piedmont acquisition. The effective tax rate increased from 16.4% to 20.6% in 3Q24. 2Q24 included the impact of discrete tax benefits recognized in 2Q24. EARNINGS SUMMARY

Slide 6

Reported Net Interest Margin increased from 3.50% to 3.52% LQ. Linked-quarter Net Interest Income (FTE) increased $4.5 million driven by an increase in average short-term investments, a higher yield on average net loans and loans held for sale, and a decrease in average long-term borrowings partially offset by an increase in average interest-bearing deposits as well as a higher average rate paid on deposits. Approximately ~55% of the loan portfolio is fixed rate and ~45% is adjustable rate, while ~31% of the total portfolio is projected to reprice within the next 3 months. ~21% of the securities portfolio is floating rate. Securities balances of approximately ~$360 million with an average yield of ~4.5% are projected to roll off over the remainder of 2024. Securities balances of an additional approximately ~$360 million with an average yield of ~3.8% are projected to roll off during FY 2025. During 3Q24, approximately ~$197 million of securities were sold at a loss of $6.9 million. The securities sold were comprised of ~66% in floating rate securities and ~34% in fixed rate securities. Approximately ~$150 million was reinvested in fixed rate securities with an average yield of ~5.1%. HTM securities are immaterial at $1.0 million, or 0.0% of total securities. The duration of the AFS portfolio is 4.2 years. Time deposits have an average maturity of ~6 months. Approximately ~12% of total deposits have interest rates tied to a floating rate index. Scheduled purchase accounting loan accretion is estimated at $1.8 million for the remainder of FY 2024 and $5.7 million for FY 2025 (not including the impact from the Piedmont acquisition).

Select guidance is being provided for 2024. Our outlook may change if the expectations for these items vary from current expectations. The guidance represents UBSI on a standalone basis and does not include any assumed impact from the Piedmont acquisition. Balance Sheet: Expect loan growth, excluding loans held for sale, to be in the low single digits for the 4th quarter of 2024 (annualized). Expect investment portfolio balances to increase ~$100 million in 4Q24. Expect deposits to be relatively flat in 4Q24. Net Interest Income / Net Interest Margin: Net interest income (non-FTE) expected to be in the range of $908 million to $913 million for 2024 (assumes two 25 bps rate cuts in 4Q24). Expect the net interest margin to remain relatively stable in 4Q24 compared to 3Q24. Provision Expense: Asset quality remains sound. Provision expense will be dependent on the future economic outlook, future credit trends within United’s portfolio, and loan growth. Expect credit environment to continue to normalize. Expect United’s credit performance to outperform the industry. Current planning assumption for provision expense is $25 million for FY 2024. Non Interest Income: Expect non interest income to be in the range of $122 million to $126 million for 2024. Mortgage banking revenue will be subject to industry trends. Non Interest Expense: Expect non interest expense, excluding any additional merger-related expenses, to be in the range of $547 million to $552 million for 2024. Effective Tax Rate: Estimated at approximately ~20.5% for the remainder of 2024. Capital: Stock buyback will be market dependent. United’s capital position remains robust. 2024 OUTLOOK
