Non-GAAP Financial Measures This presentation contains non-GAAP financial measures. For purposes of Regulation G promulgated by the SEC, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of the registrant's historical or future financial performance, financial position or cash flows that excludes amounts or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding amounts that are included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the statement of income, statement of financial condition or statement of cash flows (or equivalent statements) of the issuer; or includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of including amounts, that are excluded from the most directly comparable measure so calculated and presented in this regard. GAAP refers to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. These non-GAAP financial measures are in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Pursuant to the requirements of Regulation G, Silvergate has provided reconciliations within this presentation, as necessary, of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

However, these non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental and are not a substitute for an analysis based on GAAP measures. As other companies may use different calculations for these adjusted measures, this presentation may not be comparable to other similarly titled adjusted measures reported by other companies. This earnings release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures for the periods presented below in order to present our results of operations for that period on a basis consistent with our historical operations. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors that is supplementary to the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows computed in accordance with GAAP. During the fourth quarter of 2022, the digital asset industry experienced a transformational shift, with significant over-leverage in the industry, leading to several high-profile bankruptcies. These dynamics led to a crisis of confidence across the ecosystem and led many industry participants to shift deposits away from digital asset trading platforms. The Company saw significant outflows of deposits during the quarter and took several actions to maintain cash liquidity, which included utilizing wholesale funding and subsequently sold debt securities to accommodate the sustained lower deposit levels and maintain its highly liquid balance sheet. This restructuring of the Company’s balance sheet led to the decision to reduce its expense base going forward by significantly reducing its workforce. The following adjustments represent the impact of these actions in response to the events that occurred in the fourth quarter of 2022 and are considered infrequent in nature. The likelihood that these charges will occur in subsequent periods may depend on deposit levels and customer behavior. Loss on securities: The Company sold securities in order to manage liquidity and recognized net losses related to the declines in market values relative to amortized cost. In addition, an other than temporary impairment charge was recorded for securities that the Company will more likely than not be required to sell before recovery of its amortized cost basis. Loss on derivatives: In conjunction with the securities sales the Company, de-designated and sold certain related derivatives hedging fair value of securities and realized net losses on the change in fair value on the derivative instruments related to the timing of the sales of derivatives. Restructuring charges: Restructuring charges includes direct costs related to reduction in force efforts or other exit and disposal activities, such as decisions to no longer provide certain products. Costs related to reduction in force actions primarily consist of one-time termination benefits for affected employees including severance payments, employee benefit payments, accelerated stock-based compensation expense and other related costs, such as job placement services and legal costs. Impairment of intangible assets: In January 2022, the Company purchased certain developed technology assets related to running a block-chain-based payment network. In the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company determined that based on recent changes in market conditions of the digital asset industry, the likelihood of the launch of a blockchain-based payment solution was no longer imminent. The Company performed an impairment analysis and took an impairment charge of $196.2 million. Income taxes: The tax effect adjustment below was determined by calculating the estimated annual effective tax rate on adjusted income before income taxes and applying the rate to pre- tax income. The difference between the estimated income tax and the income tax expense or benefit as reported was included as a tax effect adjustment. Adjusted diluted shares: Adjusted earnings per diluted share is calculated by dividing adjusted net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding adjusted for the dilutive effects of all potential shares of common stock. In periods where a net loss attributable to common shareholders was reported, the diluted shares were the same as basic shares because the effects of potentially dilutive shares were anti-dilutive.
