3 Disclaimers, continued Additional Information and Where to Find It This communication may be deemed to be solicitation material in respect of the proposed transaction by BancorpSouth Bank and Cadence. In connection with the proposed acquisition, BancorpSouth Bank and Cadence each filed with the FDIC and the SEC on July 7, 2021, respectively, a definitive joint proxy statement on Schedule 14A, including an offering circular with respect to the common stock of BancorpSouth Bank. STOCKHOLDERS OF BANCORPSOUTH BANK AND CADENCE ARE URGED TO READ THE DEFINITIVE JOINT PROXY STATEMENT/OFFERING CIRCULAR AND ALL OTHER RELEVANT DOCUMENTS FILED WITH THE FDIC AND SEC WHEN THEY BECOME AVAILABLE (INCLUDING ALL AMENDMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTS THERETO) , BECAUSE THEY CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE PROPOSED TRANSACTION. Investors and security holders may obtain the documents free of charge at the FDIC’s website, https://www.fdic.gov, and the SEC’s website, http://www.sec.gov, respectively. Participants in Solicitation BancorpSouth Bank and its directors and executive officers, and Cadence and its directors and executive officers, may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from the holders of BancorpSouth Bank common stock and the holders of Cadence common stock in respect of the proposed transaction. Information about the directors and executive officers of BancorpSouth Bank is set forth in the proxy statement for BancorpSouth Bank’s 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, which was filed with the FDIC on March 12, 2021. Information about the directors and executive officers of Cadence is set forth in the proxy statement for Cadence’s 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, which was filed with the SEC on March 26, 2021. Additional information regarding the interest of such participants is set forth in the definitive joint proxy statement/offering circular regarding the proposed transaction filed by each of BancorpSouth Bank and Cadence with the FDIC and the SEC on July 7, 2021, respectively. Free copies of this document may be obtained as described in the preceding paragraph. About Non-GAAP Financial Measures Certain of the financial measures and ratios Cadence presents, including “efficiency ratio,” “adjusted efficiency ratio,” “adjusted noninterest expenses,” “adjusted operating revenue,” “tangible common equity ratio,” “tangible book value per share” and “return on average tangible common equity”, “adjusted return on average tangible common equity”, “adjusted return on average assets”, “adjusted diluted earnings per share”, and “pre-tax, pre-provision net revenue” are supplemental measures that are not required by, or are not presented in accordance with, U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Cadence refers to these financial measures and ratios as “non-GAAP financial measures.” Cadence considers the use of select non-GAAP financial measures and ratios to be useful for financial and operational decision making and useful in evaluating period-to-period comparisons. Cadence believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance by excluding certain expenditures or assets that Cadence believes are not indicative of its primary business operating results or by presenting certain metrics on a fully taxable equivalent basis. Cadence believes that management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing its performance and when planning, forecasting, analyzing and comparing past, present and future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP and you should not rely on non-GAAP financial measures alone as measures of Cadence’s performance. The non-GAAP financial measures Cadence presents may differ from non-GAAP financial measures used by its peers or other companies. Cadence compensates for these limitations by providing the equivalent GAAP measures whenever it presents the non-GAAP financial measures and by including a reconciliation of the impact of the components adjusted for in the non-GAAP financial measure so that both measures and the individual components may be considered when analyzing Cadence’s performance. A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures is included in the appendix.

Net Interest Income / Net Interest Margin 21 Highlights (1) Calculation removes average balance of PPP loans and income NIM, Yields & Costs Net interest income was $138.5 million down $4.2 million or 2.9% from 1Q21. The 2Q21 decline was driven by a mix shift out of loans and into investment securities, as well as $3.3 million in lower hedge income, $1.3 million in lower accretion, $1.2 million in lower PPP income, and partially offset by $2.5 million in lower funding costs. NIM of 3.10% was down 12 bp from 3.22% for 1Q21, and excluding PPP loans, was 3.09% in 2Q21, down 15 bp from 3.24%. 2Q21 NIM, excluding PPP loans, was impacted by declines in average loan balances -13bps, lower hedge income -8bp, partially offset by the impact of improved funding costs +5bp and increased average investment securities +4bp.
