163Q21 Financial Results Tangible Common Equity Wells Fargo & Company and Subsidiaries TANGIBLE COMMON EQUITY We also evaluate our business based on certain ratios that utilize tangible common equity. Tangible common equity is a non-GAAP financial measure and represents total equity less preferred equity, noncontrolling interests, goodwill, certain identifiable intangible assets (other than MSRs) and goodwill and other intangibles on nonmarketable equity securities, net of applicable deferred taxes. One of these ratios is return on average tangible common equity (ROTCE), which represents our annualized earnings as a percentage of tangible common equity. The methodology of determining tangible common equity may differ among companies. Management believes that return on average tangible common equity, which utilizes tangible common equity, is a useful financial measure because it enables management, investors, and others to assess the Company’s use of equity. The table below provides a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to GAAP financial measures. Quarter ended (in millions, except ratios) Sep 30, 2021 Jun 30, 2021 Mar 31, 2021 Dec 31, 2020 Sep 30, 2020 Return on average tangible common equity: Net income applicable to common stock (A) $ 4,787 5,743 4,256 2,741 2,901 Average total equity 194,041 190,968 189,074 185,444 181,377 Adjustments: Preferred stock (21,403) (21,108) (21,840) (21,223) (21,098) Additional paid-in capital on preferred stock 145 138 145 156 158 Unearned ESOP shares 875 875 875 875 875 Noncontrolling interests (1,845) (1,313) (1,115) (887) (761) Average common stockholders’ equity (B) $ 171,813 169,560 167,139 164,365 160,551 Adjustments: Goodwill (26,192) (26,213) (26,383) (26,390) (26,388) Certain identifiable intangible assets (other than MSRs) (290) (310) (330) (354) (378) Goodwill and other intangibles on nonmarketable equity securities (included in other assets) (2,169) (2,208) (2,217) (1,889) (2,045) Applicable deferred taxes related to goodwill and other intangible assets (1) 882 873 863 852 838 Average tangible common equity (C) $ 144,044 141,702 139,072 136,584 132,578 Return on average common stockholders’ equity (ROE) (annualized) (A)/(B) 11.1 % 13.6 10.3 6.6 7.2 Return on average tangible common equity (ROTCE) (annualized) (A)/(C) 13.2 16.3 12.4 8.0 8.7 (1) Determined by applying the combined federal statutory rate and composite state income tax rates to the difference between book and tax basis of the respective goodwill and intangible assets at period end.

However, the requirements for determining total capital are in accordance with transition requirements and are scheduled to be fully phased-in beginning January 1, 2022. The Basel III capital rules provide for two capital frameworks: the Standardized Approach and the Advanced Approach applicable to certain institutions. Accordingly, in the assessment of our capital adequacy, we must report the lower of our CET1, tier 1 and total capital ratios calculated under the Standardized Approach and under the Advanced Approach. (2) In second quarter 2021, we elected to change our accounting method for low-income housing tax credit (LIHTC) investments. We also elected to change the presentation of investment tax credits related to solar energy investments. Prior period total equity was revised to conform with the current period presentation. Prior period risk-based capital and certain other regulatory related metrics were not revised. (3) Determined by applying the combined federal statutory rate and composite state income tax rates to the difference between book and tax basis of the respective goodwill and intangible assets at period end. (4) In second quarter 2020, the Company elected to apply a modified transition provision issued by federal banking regulators related to the impact of CECL on regulatory capital. The rule permits certain banking organizations to exclude from regulatory capital the initial adoption impact of CECL, plus 25% of the cumulative changes in the allowance for credit losses (ACL) under CECL for each period until December 31, 2021, followed by a three-year phase-out of the benefits. The impact of the CECL transition provision on our regulatory capital at September 30, 2021, was an increase in capital of $463 million, reflecting a $991 million (post-tax) increase in capital recognized upon our initial adoption of CECL, offset by 25% of the $5.8 billion increase in our ACL under CECL from January 1, 2020, through September 30, 2021.
