2WEBSTER FINANCIAL CORPORATION Forward-Looking Statements and Non-GAAP Financials Forward-Looking Statements This presentation contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward- looking statements can be identified by words such as “believes,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “targeted,” “continue,” “remain,” “will,” “should,” “may,” “plans,” “estimates,” and similar references to future periods; however, such words are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements. Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: (i) projections of revenues, expenses, synergies and expense savings, income or loss, earnings or loss per share, and other financial items; (ii) statements of plans, objectives, and expectations of Webster or its management or Board of Directors; (iii) statements of future economic performance; and (iv) statements of assumptions underlying such statements. Forward-looking statements are based on Webster’s current expectations and assumptions regarding its business, the economy, and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks, and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of Webster’s control. Webster’s actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements, which are neither statements of historical fact nor guarantees or assurances of future performance. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ from those discussed in the forward-looking statements include macroeconomic risks related to potential regional, national or international economic downturns and interest rate and asset price volatility, and the impact these may have on the Company's customers; our ability to successfully integrate the operations of Webster and Sterling Bancorp and realize the anticipated benefits of the merger; our ability to successfully execute our business plan and strategic initiatives, and manage any risks or uncertainties; our ability to successfully achieve the anticipated cost reductions and operating efficiencies from planned strategic initiatives, including process automation, organization simplification, and spending reductions, and avoid any higher than anticipated costs or delays in the ongoing implementation; disruptions to our technology network including computer systems and software; and the other factors that are described in the “Forward-Looking Statements,” “Risk Factors,” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” sections of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and the “Forward-Looking Statements” section and other information contained in our earnings release for the fourth quarter of 2022 furnished as an exhibit to our most recent Current Report on Form 8-K. Any forward-looking statement made by the Company in this presentation speaks only as of the date on which it is made. Factors or events that could cause the Company’s actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for the Company to predict all such factors and events and our future financial results. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments, or otherwise, except as may be required by law. Non-GAAP Financial Measures This presentation contains both financial measures based on accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and non-GAAP based financial measures, which are used where management believes them to be helpful in understanding the Company’s results of operations or financial position. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures, to the most comparable GAAP measures, are included in this presentation and the Company’s earnings release available in the Investor Relations portion of the Company’s website at www.wbst.com. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. For additional information see reconciliation to GAAP financial measures presented in the Company’s Press Release.
