(1) Notable items include income and expense for infrequent transactions and certain recurring items (typically noncash) that management believes should be excluded from adjusted measures (Non-GAAP) to enhance understanding of operations and comparability to historical periods. Management utilizes both GAAP and adjusted measures (Non-GAAP) to analyze the Company’s performance. Refer to subsequent pages of this financial supplement for a reconciliation of Non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.

(2) Depreciation and maintenance and other operating lease expenses are reclassified from noninterest expense to a reduction of rental income on operating lease equipment. There is no net impact to earnings for this notable item as adjusted noninterest income and expense are reduced by the same amount. Adjusted rental income on operating lease equipment (Non-GAAP) is net of depreciation and maintenance expense for operating lease equipment. Management believes this measure enhances comparability to banking peers, primarily due to the extent of our rail and other equipment rental activities. Refer to subsequent pages of this financial supplement for a reconciliation of Non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

(3) Notable items included in other noninterest income consist of a gain on sale of insurance accounts in 4Q23 and a measurement period adjustment related to FX translation in 3Q23. YTD22 notable items consist of a railcar lease settlement and a gain on sale of the corporate jet.

(4) Professional fees related to other integration.

(5) Notable items included in other noninterest expense consist of an impairment on corporate real estate and the termination of legacy CIT post-retirement plans in YTD22.

(6) For the periods presented, the income tax impact may include tax discrete items and changes in the estimated annualized effective tax rate.
