United Bankshares, Inc. Announces Record Earnings

for the Second Quarter of 2025

WASHINGTON, D.C. and CHARLESTON, WV-- United Bankshares, Inc. (NASDAQ: UBSI) (“United”), today reported record earnings for the second quarter of 2025 of $120.7 million, or $0.85 per diluted share. Second quarter of 2025 results produced annualized returns on average assets, average equity, and average tangible equity, a non-GAAP measure, of 1.49%, 9.05%, and 14.67%, respectively.

“I’m excited to announce that the second quarter of 2025 was the strongest earnings quarter in our Company’s long history,” stated Richard M. Adams, Jr., United’s Chief Executive Officer. “Our entry into the Atlanta market, along with excellent asset quality and strong expense control, drove our results in the quarter. I anticipate continued success in the second half of the year.”

As a result of the acquisition of Piedmont Bancorp, Inc. (“Piedmont”) on January 10, 2025, the second quarter and year of 2025 were impacted by increased levels of average balances, income, and expense. Earnings for the first quarter of 2025 were $84.3 million, or $0.59 per diluted share, and annualized returns on average assets, average equity, and average tangible equity were 1.06%, 6.47%, and 10.61%, respectively. The first quarter of 2025 was impacted by $30.0 million in pre-tax, or approximately $0.17 in after-tax earnings per diluted share, merger-related noninterest expenses and merger-related provision for credit losses. 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.

Second quarter of 2025 compared to the first quarter of 2025

Earnings for the second quarter of 2025 were $120.7 million, or $0.85 per diluted share, as compared to earnings of $84.3 million, or $0.59 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2025.

Net interest income for the second quarter of 2025 was a record $274.5 million, an increase of $14.5 million, or 6%, from the first quarter of 2025. Tax-equivalent net interest income, a non-GAAP measure which adjusts for the tax-favored status of income from certain loans and investments, for the second quarter of 2025 also increased $14.5 million, or 6%, from the first quarter of 2025. The second quarter of 2025 reflected a full three months of average earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities balances from the Piedmont acquisition. The increase in net interest income and tax-equivalent net interest income was driven by increases in average loans from the Piedmont acquisition and organic loan growth, a higher yield on average net loans and loans held for sale, and an increase in acquired loan accretion income. These increases were partially offset by an increase in average interest-bearing deposits primarily due to the Piedmont acquisition. Average net loans and loans held for sale increased $511.1 million, or 2%, from the first quarter of 2025. The interest rate spread increased 12 basis points to 2.95% for the second quarter of 2025 driven by an increase in the yield on average net loans and loans held for sale of 13 basis points. Acquired loan accretion income was $11.8 million for the second quarter of 2025, an increase of $5.8 million from the first quarter of 2025 which contributed to an approximately 8 basis point increase in the interest rate spread and in the net interest margin. Average interest-bearing deposits increased $237.5 million, or 1%, from the first quarter of 2025. The net interest margin of 3.81% for the second quarter of 2025 was an increase of 12 basis points from the net interest margin of 3.69% for the first quarter of 2025.

The provision for credit losses was $5.9 million for the second quarter of 2025. The provision for credit losses was $29.1 million for the first quarter of 2025, which included $18.7 million of provision recorded on purchased non-credit deteriorated (“non-PCD”) loans from Piedmont.

Noninterest income for the second quarter of 2025 was $31.5 million, an increase of $1.9 million, or 6%, from the first quarter of 2025 driven by an increase in other noninterest income of $1.5 million.

Noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2025 was $148.0 million, which included $1.3 million in merger-related expenses while noninterest expense was $153.6 million for the first quarter of 2025, which included $11.3 million in merger-related expenses. This decrease of $5.6 million in noninterest expense was driven by a $4.8 million decrease in other noninterest expense and a $748 thousand net benefit in the expense for the reserve for unfunded loan commitments for the second quarter of 2025 as compared to $1.7 million of expense for the reserve for unfunded loan commitments for the first quarter of 2025, which included $4.1 million of merger expense related to the Piedmont acquisition. These decreases in noninterest expense were partially offset by an increase in employee compensation of $2.1 million. Other noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2025 included $961 thousand of merger-related expenses while the first quarter of 2025 included $6.0 million of merger-related expenses. The net benefit in the expense for the reserve for unfunded loan commitments for the second quarter of 2025 was primarily due to a decrease in the outstanding balance of loan commitments at period-end as compared to the first quarter of 2025. Employee compensation for the second quarter of 2025 increased from the first quarter of 2025 primarily due to higher employee incentives, stock-based compensation, and employee commissions driven by higher mortgage production. This increase in employee compensation was partially offset by lower merger-related employee compensation expenses of $310 thousand for the second quarter of 2025 as compared to $1.2 million for the first quarter of 2025.

For the second quarter of 2025, income tax expense was $31.4 million as compared to $22.6 million for the first quarter of 2025. This increase of $8.8 million in income tax expense was driven by the impact of higher earnings partially offset by a lower effective tax rate. United’s effective tax rate was 20.6% and 21.2% for the second quarter of 2025 and first quarter of 2025, respectively.

Second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024

Earnings for the second quarter of 2025 were $120.7 million, or $0.85 per diluted share, as compared to earnings of $96.5 million, or $0.71 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2024.

Net interest income for the second quarter of 2025 increased $48.8 million, or 22%, from the second quarter of 2024. Tax-equivalent net interest income increased $48.7 million, or 22%, from the second quarter of 2024. The increase in net interest income and tax-equivalent net interest income was primarily due to an increase in average earning assets, a lower average rate paid on deposits, a higher yield on average net loans and loans held for sale, an increase in acquired loan accretion income, and a decrease in average long-term borrowings. These increases were partially offset by an increase in average interest-bearing deposits. Average earning assets increased $2.9 billion, or 11%, from the second quarter of 2024 driven by increases in average net loans and loans held for sale of $2.3 billion and average short-term investments of $1.1 billion partially offset by a decrease in average investment securities of $485.3 million. The decrease in average investment securities was driven by sales of available for sale (“AFS”) investment securities during 2024. The cost of average interest-bearing deposits decreased 33 basis points from the second quarter of 2024. The yield on average net loans and loans held for sale increased 14 basis points from the second quarter of 2024. Acquired loan accretion income was $11.8 million for the second quarter of 2025 as compared to $2.4 million for the second quarter of 2024. Average long-term borrowings decreased $739.6 million from the second quarter of 2024. Average interest-bearing deposits increased $2.9 billion, or 17%, from the second quarter of 2024. The net interest margin of 3.81% for the second quarter of 2025 was an increase of 31 basis points from the net interest margin of 3.50% for the second quarter of 2024.

The provision for credit losses was $5.9 million for the second quarter of 2025 as compared to $5.8 million for the second quarter of 2024.

Noninterest income for the second quarter of 2025 was $31.5 million, an increase of $1.2 million, or 4%, from the second quarter of 2024. The increase in noninterest income was driven by a $1.1 million increase in income from bank-owned life insurance (“BOLI”) and smaller increases in several other categories of noninterest income. These increases were partially offset by decreases in income from mortgage banking activities of $1.3 million and mortgage loan servicing income of $783 thousand. The increase in BOLI income was primarily due to the impact of higher market values of underlying investments, death benefits recognized in the second quarter of 2025, and policies obtained from the Piedmont acquisition. The decrease in income from mortgage banking activities was primarily due to lower mortgage loan origination and sale volume. The decrease in mortgage loan servicing income was due to sales of mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) during 2024. Additionally, as disclosed in the second quarter of 2024, net losses on investment securities of $218 thousand included a $6.9 million gain on the VISA share exchange partially offset by a $6.8 million loss on the sale of AFS investment securities.

Noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2025 was $148.0 million, an increase of $13.2 million, or 10%, from the second quarter of 2024. The increase in noninterest expense was driven by increases in employee compensation of $4.4 million, other noninterest expense of $3.5 million, and several other categories of noninterest expense mainly from the Piedmont acquisition. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in mortgage loan servicing expense of $1.0 million. The increase in employee compensation was primarily due to higher employee headcount from the acquisition, higher employee incentives, and $310 thousand in merger-related expenses recognized during the second quarter of 2025. The increase in other noninterest expense was primarily due to higher amounts of certain general operating expenses partially offset by lower merger-related expenses of $961 thousand for the second quarter of 2025 as compared to $1.3 million for the second quarter 2024. The decrease in mortgage loan servicing expense was driven by the aforementioned sale of MSRs.

For the second quarter of 2025, income tax expense was $31.4 million as compared to $18.9 million for the second quarter of 2024. This increase of $12.5 million in income tax expense was driven by higher 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 second quarter of 2025 and second quarter of 2024, respectively.

First half of 2025 compared to the first half of2024

Earnings for the first half of 2025 were $205.0 million, or $1.44 per diluted share, as compared to earnings of $183.3 million, or $1.35 per diluted share, for the first half of 2024.

Net interest income for the first half of 2025 increased $86.4 million, or 19%, from the first half of 2024. Tax-equivalent net interest income for the first half of 2025 increased $86.2 million, or 19%, from the first half of 2024. The increase in net interest income and tax-equivalent net interest income was primarily due to an increase in average earning assets, a lower average rate paid on deposits, a decrease in average long-term borrowings, a higher yield on average net loans and loans held for sale, and an increase in acquired loan accretion income. These increases were partially offset by an increase in average interest-bearing deposits and a decrease in average investment securities. Average earning assets increased $2.7 billion, or 10%, from the first half of 2024 driven by increases in average net loans and loans held for sale of $2.1 billion and average short-term investments of $1.2 billion partially offset by a decrease in average investment securities of $597.5 million. The cost of average interest-bearing deposits decreased 29 basis points from the first half of 2024. Average long-term borrowings decreased $842.6 million from the first half of 2024.

Noninterest income for the first half of 2025 was $61.0 million, a decrease of $1.4 million, or 2%, from the first half of 2024. The decrease in noninterest income was driven by decreases in income from mortgage banking activities of $4.1 million, mortgage loan servicing income of $1.6 million, and other noninterest income of $1.4 million. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in BOLI income of $2.0 million, net gains

on investment securities of $946 thousand for the first half of 2025 as compared to net losses on investment securities of $317 thousand for the first half of 2024 and smaller increases in several other categories of noninterest income. The decrease in income from mortgage banking activities was primarily due to lower mortgage loan origination and sale volume in 2025. The decrease in mortgage loan servicing income was driven by the aforementioned sale of MSRs. The increase in BOLI income was primarily due to the impact of higher market values of underlying investments and death benefits recognized in 2025. Net gains on investment securities of $946 thousand for the first half of 2025 were primarily due to unrealized fair value gains on equity securities. Net losses on investment securities of $317 thousand for the first half of 2024 included the aforementioned gain on the VISA share exchange largely offset by the loss on the sale of AFS investment securities.

Noninterest expense for the first half of 2025 was $301.6 million, which included $12.6 million in merger-related expenses while noninterest expense was $275.5 million for the first half of 2024, which included $1.3 million in merger-related expenses.

The expense for the reserve for unfunded loan commitments was $909 thousand for the first half of 2025 which included $4.1 million related to the Piedmont acquisition, as compared to a net benefit in the expense for the reserve for unfunded loan commitments of $4.0 million for the first half of 2024. Employee compensation increased $6.0 million to $123.8 million for the first half of 2025 and included $1.5 million in merger-related expenses, higher employee headcount mainly from the acquisition, and higher employee incentives partially offset by lower commissions driven by a decrease in mortgage production. Additionally, increases in several other categories of noninterest expense mainly from the acquisition were partially offset by decreases in Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance expense of $2.3 million and mortgage loan servicing expense of $2.0 million. FDIC insurance expense for the first half of 2024 included $2.1 million in expense for the FDIC’s special assessment.

For the first half of 2025, income tax expense was $54.0 million as compared to $40.3 million for the first half of 2024. The increase of $13.7 million was primarily due to higher earnings and the impact of discrete tax benefits recognized in the second quarter of 2024. United’s effective tax rate was 20.9% for the first half of 2025 and 18.0% for the first half of 2024.

Cautionary Statements

The Company is required under generally accepted accounting principles to evaluate subsequent events through the filing of its June 30,2025 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 estimates made as ofJune 30, 2025 and will adjust amounts preliminarily reported, if necessary.

Use of non-GAAPFinancial Measures

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

Specifically, this press release contains certain references to financial measures identified astax-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.

Achieved record Net Income of $120.7 million and record Diluted Earnings Per Share of $0.85 Generated Return on Average Assets of 1.49%, Return on Average Equity of 9.05%, and Return on Average Tangible Equity* of 14.67% Net Interest Income was $274.5 million and Net Interest Margin (FTE) increased from 3.69% to 3.81% Consistently ranked as one of the most trustworthy banks in America by Newsweek (#1 in 2023, #2 in 2022, #4 in 2024 & 2025) Quarterly dividend of $0.37 per share equates to a yield of ~4.0% (based upon recent prices). United has increased dividends to shareholders for 51 consecutive years Asset quality remains sound with Non-Performing Assets remaining low at 0.23% of Total Assets Strong expense control with an efficiency ratio of 48.37% Capital position remains robust and liquidity remains sound Repurchased 981,422 shares for $32.5 million during 2Q25 2Q25 HIGHLIGHTS *Non-GAAP measure. Refer to appendix.

Slide 4

Linked-Quarter (LQ) Net Income was $120.7 million in 2Q25 compared to $84.3 million in 1Q25, with diluted EPS of $0.85 in 2Q25 compared to $0.59 in 1Q25. Net Interest Income increased $14.5 million primarily driven by increases in average loans from the Piedmont acquisition and organic loan growth, a higher yield on average net loans and loans held for sale, and an increase of $5.8 million in acquired loan accretion income. These increases were partially offset by an increase in average interest-bearing deposits. Provision Expense was $5.9 million in 2Q25 compared to $29.1 million in 1Q25. 1Q25 included $18.7 million of provision recorded on purchased non-credit deteriorated (“non-PCD”) loans from Piedmont. Noninterest Income increased $1.9 million compared to 1Q25 driven by an increase in other noninterest income of $1.5 million. Noninterest Expense decreased $5.6 million compared to 1Q25 driven by $1.3 million of merger-related expenses in 2Q25 compared to $11.3 million in 1Q25, partially offset by an increase in employee compensation primarily due to higher employee incentives, stock-based compensation, and employee commissions driven by higher mortgage production. Income Taxes increased $8.8 million driven by the impact of higher earnings partially offset by a decrease in the effective tax rate from 21.2% to 20.6%. EARNINGS SUMMARY

*Non-GAAP measure. Refer to appendix. Strong profitability and expense control 1Q25 was impacted by pre-tax merger related expenses of $30.0 million. PERFORMANCE RATIOS

Slide 6

Reported Net Interest Margin increased from 3.69% to 3.81% LQ. Linked-quarter Net Interest Income (FTE) increased $14.5 million primarily driven by increases in average loans from the Piedmont acquisition and organic loan growth, a higher yield on average net loans and loans held for sale, and an increase of $5.8 million in acquired loan accretion income. These increases were partially offset by an increase in average interest-bearing deposits. The $5.8 million increase in acquired loan accretion income contributed to an approximately ~8 basis point increase in the Net Interest Margin. Approximately ~52% of the loan portfolio is fixed rate and ~48% is adjustable rate, while ~35% of the total portfolio is projected to reprice within the next 3 months. ~14% of the securities portfolio is floating rate. Securities balances of approximately ~$436 million with an average yield of ~4.0% are projected to roll off during the remainder of FY 2025. HTM securities are immaterial at $1.0 million, or 0.0% of total securities. The duration of the AFS portfolio is 4.3 years. Time deposits have an average maturity of ~6 months. Approximately ~11% of total deposits have interest rates tied to a floating rate index. Scheduled purchase accounting loan accretion is estimated at ~$13 million for the remainder of FY 2025 and ~$19 million for FY 2026. NET INTEREST INCOME AND MARGIN

Slide 7

Linked-Quarter loan balances increased $187 million driven by Commercial loans, Non Owner Occupied CRE loans and Residential Real Estate loans. Loan growth was led by the Georgia, North Carolina, and Central Virginia markets in 2Q25 (annualized growth rates of ~22%, ~21%, and ~18%, respectively). Non Owner Occupied CRE to Total Risk Based Capital was ~289% at 2Q25. CRE portfolio remains diversified among underlying collateral types. Non Owner Occupied Office loans total ~$0.9 billion (~3.6% of total loans). The Top 60 Office loans make up ~71% of total Non Owner Occupied Office balances. The weighted average LTV based on current loan balances and appraised values at origination for the Top 60 was ~55% at 6/30/25. The weighted average LTV at origination for the Top 60 was ~65%. United has been disciplined in its approach to underwriting Office loans. The stringent underwriting process focuses on the underlying tenants, lease terms, sponsor support, location, property class, amenities, etc. Weighted average FICO of all consumer-related loan sectors is ~761. Total purchase accounting-related fair value discount on loans was $73 million as of 6/30/25. $ in millions LOAN SUMMARY (EXCLUDES LOANS HELD FOR SALE)

Select guidance is being provided for 2025. Our outlook may change if the expectations for these items vary from current expectations. Balance Sheet: Expect loan and deposit growth to be in the low to mid single digits for the remainder of 2025 (annualized). Loan pipelines continue to be relatively strong. Expect investment portfolio balances to be relatively flat (market dependent). Net Interest Income: Net interest income (non-FTE) expected to be in the range of $1.090 billion to $1.100 billion for FY 2025 (assumes two 25 bps rate cuts in 2025). Loan purchase accounting accretion is currently estimated at ~$31 million for FY 2025. 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 our credit performance to outperform the industry. Current planning assumption for total provision expense for 2025 is $52 million (including Day 2 merger-related CECL provision expense of $19 million that was recorded in 1Q25). Non Interest Income: Expect non interest income to be in the range of $115 million to $125 million for 2025. Mortgage banking revenue will be subject to industry trends. Non Interest Expense: Expect non interest expense to be in the range of $605 million to $615 million for 2025 (including merger-related expenses of $12.6 million that were recorded in the first half of 2025). Effective Tax Rate: Estimated at approximately ~21.0%. Capital: Stock buyback will be market dependent. United’s capital position remains robust. 2025 OUTLOOK
