Note 1 - Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies

General

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of Synovus Financial Corp. include the accounts of the Parent Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. Synovus Financial Corp. is a financial services company and a registered bank holding company based in Columbus, Georgia. Through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Synovus Bank, a Georgia state-chartered bank that is a member of the Federal Reserve System, the Company provides commercial and consumer banking in addition to a full suite of specialized products and services, including wealth services, treasury management, mortgage services, premium finance, asset-based lending, structured lending, capital markets, and international banking. Synovus also provides financial planning and investment advisory services through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Synovus Trust and Synovus Securities.

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to the SEC Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X; therefore, they do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income (loss), and cash flows in conformity with GAAP. All adjustments consisting of normally recurring accruals that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position and results of operations for the periods covered by this Report have been included. The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing in Synovus' 2024 Form 10-K.

Pending Merger with Pinnacle Financial Partners, Inc.

On July 24, 2025, Synovus entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Pinnacle Financial Partners, Inc. ("Pinnacle") and Steel Newco Inc., a newly formed Georgia corporation jointly owned by Pinnacle and Synovus (“Newco”). The Merger Agreement provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, Pinnacle and Synovus will each simultaneously merge with and into Newco (such mergers, collectively, the “Merger”), with Newco continuing as the surviving corporation in the Merger and named Pinnacle Financial Partners, Inc.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, (a) each share of common stock, par value $1.00 per share, of Synovus (“Synovus Common Stock”) outstanding immediately prior to the Merger will be converted into the right to receive 0.5237 shares of the common stock of Newco ("Newco Common Stock") and (b) each share of common stock, par value $1.00 per share, of Pinnacle outstanding immediately prior to the Merger will be converted into the right to receive one share of Newco Common Stock. Holders of Synovus Common Stock will receive cash in lieu of fractional shares. Following the close of the Merger, Synovus shareholders will own approximately 48.5% and Pinnacle shareholders will own approximately 51.5% of the combined company.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, each share of Synovus Series D Preferred Stock, Synovus Series E Preferred Stock and 6.75% Fixed-Rate Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series B, no par value, of Pinnacle ("Pinnacle Preferred Stock"), will be converted into the right to receive one share of an applicable newly created series of preferred stock of Newco having terms that are not materially less favorable than the Synovus Series D Preferred Stock, Synovus Series E Preferred Stock or Pinnacle Preferred Stock, as applicable.

The Merger Agreement was unanimously approved by the Boards of Directors of each of Pinnacle, Synovus and Newco. The completion of the Merger is subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including receipt of required regulatory approvals and approval by the shareholders of each of Synovus and Pinnacle.

Reclassifications

Prior periods' consolidated financial statements are reclassified whenever necessary to conform to the current periods' presentation.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

In preparing the consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the respective consolidated balance sheets and the reported amounts of revenue and expense for the periods presented. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change relate to the determination of the ACL, estimates of fair value, income taxes, and contingent liabilities.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The following table provides a brief description of accounting standards adopted in 2025 or recently issued and the estimated effect on the Company’s financial statements.

Standard			Description			Required date of adoption			Effect on Company's financial statements or other significant matters
Standards Adopted (or partially adopted)
ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures			In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. The ASU addresses investor requests for more transparency about income tax information through improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. Retrospective application in all prior periods is permitted.			Annual period beginning on January 1, 2025			The Company will include the applicable and relevant required disclosures on a retrospective basis in the Income Taxes footnote in the 2025 Form 10-K.
Standard			Description			Required date of adoption			Effect on Company's financial statements or other significant matters
Standards Issued But Not Yet Adopted
ASU 2024-03, Income Statement (Topic 220): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses			In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03 to improve the disclosures over expenses and address requests from investors for more detailed information about the types of expenses in commonly presented expense captions. The ASU addresses investors requests for more disaggregated expense information to better understand an entity's performance, better assess the entity's prospects for future cash flows, and compare an entity's performance over time and with that of other entities. This ASU requires disclosure in the notes to the financial statements of specified information about certain costs and expenses. Retrospective application in all prior periods is permitted.			January 1, 2027			The Company will adopt the new disclosure requirements for the annual period beginning on January 1, 2027, and interim periods starting on January 1, 2028. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the incremental expense information that will be required to be disclosed.
ASU 2025-06 —Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software			In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06 to clarify and modernize the accounting for costs related to internal-use software. The ASU removes all references to project stages throughout ASC 350-40 and clarifies the threshold entities should apply to begin capitalizing costs. The ASU addresses investor feedback that the current guidance for software costs is outdated and not relevant given the evolution of software development. The ASU requires disclosures under ASC 360-10 be applied to all capitalized software costs accounted for under ASC 350-40, regardless of how those costs are presented in the financial statements. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period but must be applied as of the beginning of the annual period that includes that interim period. The ASU may be adopted prospectively, retrospectively, or on a modified transition approach.			January 1, 2028			The Company is currently evaluating the transition elections and is considering early adoption as of January 1, 2026. We do not expect a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

As of September 30, 2025, Synovus had 1 investment security AFS in a loss position for less than 12 months and 220 investment securities AFS in a loss position for 12 months or longer. As of September 30, 2025, Synovus does not intend to sell investment securities AFS in an unrealized loss position prior to the recovery of the unrealized loss, which may not be until maturity. Additionally, Synovus is not currently aware of any circumstances which will require it to sell any of the AFS securities that are in an unrealized loss position prior to the respective securities' recovery of all such unrealized losses. As such, no write-downs to the amortized cost basis of the portfolio were recorded at September 30, 2025.

10

---

At September 30, 2025, no ACL was established for investment securities AFS. Substantially all of the unrealized losses on the securities portfolio were the result of changes in market interest rates compared to the date the securities were acquired rather than the credit quality of the issuers or underlying loans. U.S. Treasury and agency securities and agency mortgage-backed securities are issued, guaranteed or otherwise supported by the United States government, an agency of the United States government, or a government sponsored enterprise.

As of September 30, 2025, all investment securities HTM were rated investment grade or supported by U.S. government agencies and have no history of credit losses supporting the application of a zero-credit loss assumption and no allowance for credit losses.

The amortized cost and fair value by contractual maturity of investment securities HTM and investment securities AFS at September 30, 2025 are shown below. The expected life of MBSs or CMOs may differ from contractual maturities because issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties. For purposes of the maturity table, MBSs and CMOs, which are not due at a single maturity date, have been classified based on the final contractual maturity date.

Portfolio Segment Risk Factors

The risk characteristics and collateral information of each portfolio segment are as follows:

Commercial and Industrial Loans - The C&I loan portfolio is comprised of general middle market and commercial banking clients across a diverse set of industries, as well as certain specialized lending verticals including specialty finance, senior housing, and CIB. In accordance with Synovus' lending policy, each loan undergoes a detailed underwriting process, which incorporates uniform underwriting standards and oversight in proportion to the size and complexity of the lending relationship. These loans are generally secured by collateral such as business equipment, inventory, and real estate. Credit decisions on loans in the C&I portfolio are based on cash flow from the operations of the business as the primary source of repayment of the debt, with underlying real estate or other collateral being the secondary source of repayment.

Commercial Real Estate Loans - CRE loans primarily consist of income-producing investment properties loans. Additionally, CRE loans include 1-4 family properties loans as well as land and development loans. Investment properties loans consist of construction and mortgage loans for income-producing properties and are primarily made to finance multi-family properties, hotels, office buildings, shopping centers, warehouses and other commercial development properties. 1-4 family properties loans include construction loans to homebuilders and commercial mortgage loans related to 1-4 family rental properties and are almost always secured by the underlying property being financed by such loans. These properties are primarily located in the markets served by Synovus. Land and development loans include commercial and residential development as well as land acquisition loans and are secured by land held for future development, typically in excess of one year. Properties securing these loans are substantially within markets served by Synovus, and our preference is to obtain some level of recourse from project sponsors. Loans in this portfolio are underwritten based on the LTV of the collateral and the capacity of the guarantor(s).

Consumer Loans - The consumer loan portfolio consists of a wide variety of loan products offered through Synovus' banking network, including first and second residential mortgages, home equity, and consumer credit card loans, as well as home improvement loans, student, and personal loans from third-party lending ("other consumer loans"). Together, consumer mortgages and home equity comprise the majority of Synovus' consumer loans and are secured by first and second liens on residential real estate primarily located in the markets served by Synovus. The primary source of repayment for all consumer loans is generally the personal income of the borrower(s).

Credit Quality Indicators

The credit quality of the loan portfolio is reviewed and updated no less frequently than annually using the standard asset classification system utilized by the federal banking agencies. These classifications are divided into three groups: Not Criticized (Pass), Special Mention, and Classified or Adverse rating (Substandard, Doubtful, and Loss) and are defined as follows:

Pass - loans which are well protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor (or guarantors, if any) or by the fair value, less cost to acquire and sell in a timely manner, of any underlying collateral.

Special Mention - loans which have potential weaknesses that deserve management's close attention. These loans are not adversely classified and do not expose an institution to sufficient risk to warrant an adverse classification.

Substandard - loans which are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or by the collateral pledged, if any. Loans with this classification are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Doubtful - loans which have all the weaknesses inherent in loans categorized as Substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full highly questionable and improbable on the basis of currently known facts, conditions, and values.

Loss - loans which are considered by management to be uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance on the institution's books as an asset, without establishment of a specific valuation allowance or charge-off, is not warranted. Synovus fully reserves for any loans rated as Loss.

In the following tables, consumer loans are generally assigned a risk grade similar to the classifications described above; however, upon reaching 90 days and 120 days past due, they are generally downgraded to Substandard and Loss, respectively, in accordance with the FFIEC Retail Credit Classification Policy. Additionally, in accordance with Interagency Supervisory Guidance, the risk grade classifications of consumer loans (consumer mortgages and home equity) secured by junior liens on 1-4 family residential properties also consider available information on the payment status of any associated senior liens with other financial institutions.

Collateral-Dependent Loans

We classify a loan as collateral-dependent when our borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, and we expect repayment to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of collateral. Our commercial loans have collateral that is comprised of real estate and business assets. Our consumer loans have collateral that is substantially comprised of residential real estate.

There were no material changes in the extent to which collateral secures our collateral-dependent loans during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025.

The ALL of $469.5 million and the reserve for unfunded commitments of $50.7 million, which is recorded in other liabilities, comprise the total ACL of $520.3 million at September 30, 2025. The ACL decreased $19.0 million compared to the December 31, 2024 ACL of $539.3 million, which consisted of an ALL of $486.8 million and a reserve for unfunded commitments of $52.5 million. The ACL to loans coverage ratio was 1.19% at September 30, 2025, compared to 1.27% at December 31, 2024. When compared to the year-end 2024 ACL, the September 30, 2025 ACL was characterized by improved credit performance, including a decrease in net charge-offs and reserves for individually analyzed loans, as well as loan growth. The Company includes qualitative adjustments, as appropriate, intended to capture the impact of uncertainties in the quantitative estimate. The September 30, 2025 and the December 31, 2024 allowance included qualitative adjustments for higher risk portfolios such as C&I (which includes Leveraged Lending), CRE Office, and CRE Multi-family.

19

---

The ACL is estimated using a two-year reasonable and supportable forecast period. To the extent the lives of the loans in the portfolio extend beyond the period for which a reasonable and supportable forecast can be made, the Company reverts on a straight-line basis back to the historical rates over a one-year period. Synovus utilizes multiple economic forecast scenarios sourced from a reputable third-party provider that are probability-weighted internally. The current scenarios include a consensus baseline forecast, an upside scenario reflecting stronger growth than the baseline, a downside scenario that reflects adverse economic conditions, and an additional adverse scenario that assumes consistent slow growth that is less optimistic than the baseline. At September 30, 2025, the unemployment rate is the input that most significantly impacts our estimate. The multi-scenario forecast used in our estimate includes a weighted average unemployment rate of 4.7% over the forecasted period at September 30, 2025, compared to 4.6% at December 31, 2024.

Financial Difficulty Modifications

When borrowers are experiencing financial difficulty, Synovus may make certain loan modifications as part of its loss mitigation strategies to maximize expected payment. See "Part II - Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" of Synovus' 2024 Form 10-K for additional information regarding accounting policies for FDMs.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, there were no material FDMs that subsequently defaulted. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, there were no material FDMs that subsequently defaulted, and during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, commercial, financial and agricultural loans of $74.7 million defaulted that were previously modified in the prior 12 months by receiving a term extension. Defaults are defined as the earlier of the FDM being placed on non-accrual status or reaching 90 days past due with respect to principal and/or interest payments. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were no commitments to lend a material amount of additional funds to any borrower whose loan was classified as a FDM.

Synovus monitors the performance of FDMs to understand the effectiveness of its modification efforts.

Fair Value Option

Synovus has elected the fair value option for mortgage loans held for sale primarily to ease the operational burden required to maintain hedge accounting for these loans. Synovus is still able to achieve effective economic hedges on mortgage loans held for sale without the time and expense needed to manage a hedge accounting program.

Note 6 - Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

Synovus utilizes derivative instruments to manage its exposure to various types of interest rate risk, exposures related to liquidity and credit risk, and to facilitate client transactions. The primary types of derivative instruments utilized by Synovus consist of interest rate swaps, interest rate lock commitments made to prospective mortgage loan clients, commitments to sell fixed-rate mortgage loans, and foreign currency exchange contracts. Interest rate lock commitments represent derivative instruments since it is intended that such loans will be sold. Synovus also provides foreign currency exchange services, primarily forward contracts, with counterparties to allow commercial clients to mitigate exchange rate risk. Synovus covers its risk by entering into an offsetting foreign currency exchange forward contract. Synovus enters into risk participation agreements with financial institution counterparties where we are either a participant or a lead bank so that the risk of default on the interest rate swaps is shared. Synovus either pays or receives a fee depending on the participation type. Synovus is party to master netting arrangements with its dealer counterparties; however, Synovus does not offset assets and liabilities under these arrangements for financial statement presentation purposes. See "Part II - Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" to the consolidated financial statements of Synovus' 2024 Form 10-K for additional information regarding accounting policies for derivatives.

Hedging Derivatives

Cash flow hedging relationships mitigate exposure to the variability of future cash flows or other forecasted transactions. Synovus has entered into interest rate swap contracts to manage overall cash flow changes related to interest rate risk exposure on index-based variable rate commercial loans. The contracts effectively modify Synovus' exposure to interest rate risk by utilizing receive fixed/pay index-based variable rate interest rate swaps.

For cash flow hedges, gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of the tax impact, and subsequently reclassified into earnings when the hedged transaction affects earnings with the impacts recorded in the same income statement line item used to present the earnings effect of the hedged item. When a cash flow hedge relationship is discontinued but the hedged cash flows, or forecasted transactions, are still expected to occur, gains or losses that were accumulated in OCI are amortized into earnings over the same periods in which the hedged transactions are still expected to affect earnings. If, however, it is probable the forecasted transactions will no longer occur, the remaining accumulated amounts in OCI for the impacted cash flow hedges are immediately recognized in earnings.

Synovus recorded no unrealized gains (losses) during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 related to terminated cash flow hedges. Synovus recognized pre-tax losses of $4.8 million and $14.0 million, respectively, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and pre-tax losses of $4.9 million and $15.8 million, respectively, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, related to the amortization of terminated cash flow hedges. Amounts related to the amortization of terminated cash flow hedges are being recognized into earnings in conjunction with the effective terms of the original swaps through the third quarter of 2026.

As of September 30, 2025, Synovus expects to reclassify into earnings approximately $12 million in pre-tax loss due to the receipt or payment of interest payments on all cash flow hedges within the next 12 months. Included in this amount is approximately $7 million in pre-tax loss related to the amortization of terminated cash flow hedges. As of September 30, 2025, the maximum length of time over which Synovus is hedging its exposure to the variability in future cash flows is through the fourth quarter of 2029.

Fair value hedging relationships mitigate exposure to the change in fair value of an asset or liability. Synovus has entered into receive-fixed, pay-variable interest rate swap contracts to hedge the change in the fair value due to fluctuations in market interest rates for outstanding fixed-rate long-term debt and fixed-rate term interest-bearing deposits. The changes in fair value of the fair value hedges are recorded through earnings with an offset against changes in the fair value of the hedged item within interest expense in the consolidated statements of income. All components of each derivative instrument’s gain/(loss) are included in the assessment of hedge effectiveness.

Derivatives not designated as hedges include those that are entered into as either economic hedges to facilitate client needs or as part of Synovus' overall risk management strategy. Economic hedges are those that do not qualify to be treated as a fair value hedge or cash flow hedge for accounting purposes but are necessary to economically manage the risk exposure associated with the assets and liabilities of Synovus. For derivative instruments that are not designated as hedging instruments, changes in the fair value of the derivatives are recognized in earnings immediately.

Counterparty Credit Risk and Collateral

Entering into derivative contracts potentially exposes Synovus to the risk of counterparties’ failure to fulfill their legal obligations, including, but not limited to, potential amounts due or payable under each derivative contract. Notional principal amounts are often used to express the volume of these transactions, but the amounts potentially subject to credit risk are much smaller. Synovus assesses the credit risk of its dealer counterparties by regularly monitoring publicly available credit rating information, evaluating other market indicators, and periodically reviewing detailed financials. Dealer collateral requirements

---

are determined via risk-based policies and procedures and in accordance with existing agreements. Synovus seeks to minimize dealer credit risk by dealing with highly rated counterparties and by obtaining collateral for exposures above certain predetermined limits. Management closely monitors credit conditions within the client swap portfolio, which management deems to be of higher risk than dealer counterparties. Collateral is secured at origination and credit-related fair value adjustments are recorded against the asset value of the derivative as deemed necessary based upon an analysis, which includes consideration of the current asset value of the swap, client risk rating, collateral value, and client standing with regards to its swap contractual obligations and other related matters. Such asset values fluctuate based upon changes in interest rates regardless of changes in notional amounts and changes in client specific risk.

Collateral Requirements

Certain derivative transactions have collateral requirements, both at the inception of the trade and as the value of each derivative position changes. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, Synovus had recorded the right to reclaim cash collateral of $15.5 million and $34.6 million, respectively. As of both September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, Synovus had recorded the obligation to return cash collateral of $4.6 million.

For derivatives cleared through central clearing houses, the variation margin payments made are legally characterized as settlements of the derivatives. As a result, these variation margin payments are netted against the fair value of the respective derivative contracts in the consolidated balance sheets and related disclosures.

The following table reflects the estimated fair value of derivative instruments included in other assets and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets along with their respective notional amounts on a gross basis.

Note 7 - Net Income Per Common Share

The following table displays a reconciliation of the information used in calculating basic and diluted net income per common share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024.

			Three Months Ended September 30,												Nine Months Ended September 30,
(in thousands, except per share data)			2025						2024						2025						2024
Basic Net Income Per Common Share:
Net income available to common shareholders			$	185,590					$	169,628					$	575,601					$	260,709
Weighted average common shares outstanding			138,803						143,144						139,452						145,039
Net income per common share, basic			$	1.34					$	1.19					$	4.13					$	1.80
Diluted Net Income Per Common Share:
Net income available to common shareholders			$	185,590					$	169,628					$	575,601					$	260,709
Weighted average common shares outstanding			138,803						143,144						139,452						145,039
Effect of dilutive outstanding equity-based awards			809						835						837						679
Weighted average diluted common shares			139,612						143,979						140,289						145,718
Net income per common share, diluted			$	1.33					$	1.18					$	4.10					$	1.79

Diluted net income per common share incorporates the potential impact of contingently issuable shares such as those related to outstanding stock options, restricted share units (RSUs), and performance share units (PSUs), including awards which require future service and meeting certain performance and market metrics as a condition of delivery of the underlying common stock. During periods where the effect of these instruments is antidilutive, meaning their inclusion would increase earnings per share, they are excluded from the calculation.

For both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, there were approximately 9 thousand shares related to RSUs and PSUs that were excluded from the diluted EPS calculation because they were antidilutive. These shares primarily relate to unvested PSUs where the performance conditions were not met or not probable of being met. There were no shares excluded for the same periods related to stock options that would have been antidilutive.

For both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, there were 21 thousand shares excluded from the diluted EPS calculation related to stock options as they would have been antidilutive, due to the exercise prices exceeding the average market price. For the same periods, there were no shares excluded related to RSUs and PSUs that would have been antidilutive.

Note 8 - Commitments and Contingencies

In the normal course of business, Synovus enters into commitments to extend credit such as loan commitments and letters of credit to meet the financing needs of its clients. Synovus uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments. Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a client as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Synovus also has commitments to fund certain tax credits, CRA partnerships, and other investments.

The contractual amount of these financial instruments represents Synovus' maximum credit risk should the counterparty draw upon the commitment, and should the counterparty subsequently fail to perform according to the terms of the contract. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Additionally, certain commitments (primarily consumer) can generally be canceled by providing notice to the borrower.

The ACL associated with unfunded commitments and letters of credit is recorded within other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. At September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the ACL for unfunded commitments was $50.7 million and $52.5 million, respectively. Additionally, an immaterial amount of unearned fees relating to letters of credit are recorded within other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.

Synovus also invests in tax credit partnerships, CRA partnerships, including SBIC programs, and other investments. The SBIC is a program initiated by the SBA in 1958 to assist in the funding of small business loans.

(4)    Represents the contractual amount net of risk participations of $18.0 million and $16.2 million at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

Merchant Services

In accordance with credit and debit card association rules, Synovus provides merchant processing services for clients with a contractual arrangement under which certain sales and processing support are provided through an outside merchant services provider with Synovus owning the merchant contract relationship. In addition, Synovus sponsors various third-party MPS businesses that process credit and debit card transactions on behalf of merchants. In connection with these services, a liability may arise in the event of a billing dispute between the merchant and a cardholder that is ultimately resolved in the cardholder's favor. If the merchant defaults on its obligations, the cardholder, through its issuing bank, generally has until six months after the date of the transaction to present a chargeback to the MPS, which is primarily liable for any losses on covered transactions. However, if a sponsored MPS fails to meet its obligations, then Synovus, as the sponsor, could be held liable for the disputed amount. Synovus seeks to mitigate this risk through its contractual arrangements with the MPS and the merchants by withholding future settlements, retaining cash reserve accounts and/or obtaining other security. For the three and nine months

34

ended September 30, 2025, Synovus and the sponsored entities processed and settled $28.07 billion and $85.40 billion of transactions, respectively.

Legal Proceedings

Synovus and its subsidiaries are subject to various legal proceedings, claims, and disputes that arise in the ordinary course of its business. Additionally, in the ordinary course of business, Synovus and its subsidiaries are subject to regulatory and governmental examinations, information gathering requests, inquiries, and investigations. Synovus, like many other financial institutions, has been the target of legal actions and other proceedings asserting claims for damages and related relief for losses. These actions include, but are not limited to, mortgage loan and other loan put-back claims, claims and counterclaims asserted by individual borrowers related to their loans, allegations of violations of state and federal laws, and regulations relating to banking practices, including putative class action matters. In addition to actual damages, if Synovus does not prevail in such asserted legal actions, credit-related litigation could result in additional write-downs or charge-offs of assets, which could adversely affect Synovus' results of operations during the period in which the write-down or charge-off were to occur.

At least quarterly, Synovus carefully examines and considers each legal matter using then available information, and, in those situations where Synovus determines that a particular legal matter presents loss contingencies that are both probable and reasonably estimable, Synovus establishes an appropriate reserve. An event is considered to be probable if the future event is likely to occur. In the absence of a determination that a loss contingency is both probable and reasonably estimable, no accrual is made. Once established, accruals are adjusted to reflect developments related to these matters. While the final outcome of any legal proceeding is inherently uncertain, based on the information currently available, advice of counsel, and available insurance coverage, management believes that the amounts accrued with respect to legal matters as of September 30, 2025 are adequate.

In addition, where Synovus determines that there is a reasonable possibility of a loss in respect of legal matters, Synovus considers whether it is able to estimate the total reasonably possible loss or range of loss. Under GAAP, an event is “reasonably possible” if “the chance of the future event or events occurring is more than remote but less than likely,” and an event is “remote” if the “chance of the future event or events occurring is slight.” In many situations, Synovus may be unable to estimate reasonably possible losses due to the difficulty of predicting outcome of legal matters and the preliminary nature of the legal matters, as well as a variety of other factors and uncertainties. Those matters for which a meaningful estimate is not possible are not included within this estimated range and, therefore, this range does not represent our maximum loss exposure. For those legal matters where Synovus is able to estimate a range of reasonably possible losses, management currently estimates the aggregate range from our outstanding litigation is from zero to $10 million in excess of the amounts accrued, if any, related to those matters. This estimated aggregate range is based upon information currently available to Synovus, and the actual losses could prove to be lower or higher. As there are further developments in these legal matters, Synovus will reassess these matters, and the estimated range of reasonably possible losses may change as a result of this assessment. Based on Synovus' current knowledge and advice of counsel, management presently does not believe that the liabilities arising from these legal matters will have a material adverse effect on Synovus' consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. However, in light of the significant uncertainties involved and the large or indeterminate damages sought in some of these matters, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of these legal matters could have a material adverse effect on Synovus' results of operations or financial condition for any particular period.

Any estimate or determination relating to the future resolution of litigation, regulatory or governmental examinations, information gathering requests, inquiries, investigations, or similar matters is inherently uncertain and involves significant judgment. This is particularly true in the early stages of a legal matter, when legal issues and facts have not been well articulated, reviewed, analyzed, and vetted through discovery, preparation for trial or hearings, substantive and productive mediation or settlement discussions, or other actions. It is also particularly true with respect to class action and similar claims involving multiple defendants, matters with complex procedural requirements or substantive issues or novel legal theories, and examinations, investigations, and other actions conducted or brought by regulatory and governmental agencies, in which the normal adjudicative process is not applicable. Accordingly, we usually are unable to determine whether a favorable or unfavorable outcome is remote, reasonably likely, or probable, or to estimate the amount or range of a probable or reasonably likely loss, until relatively late in the course of a legal matter, sometimes not until a number of years have elapsed. Accordingly, our judgments and estimates relating to claims will change from time to time in light of developments, and actual outcomes will differ from our estimates. These differences may be material.

Synovus intends to vigorously pursue all available defenses to these legal matters but will also consider other alternatives, including settlement, in situations where there is an opportunity to resolve such legal matters on terms that Synovus considers to be favorable, including in light of the continued expense and distraction of defending such legal matters. Synovus maintains insurance coverage, which may be available to cover legal fees, or potential losses that might be incurred in connection with such legal matters. The above-noted estimated range of reasonably possible losses does not take into consideration insurance coverage which may or may not be available for the respective legal matters.

Note 9 - Segment Reporting

Synovus' business segments are based on the products and services provided or the clients served and reflect the manner in which financial information is evaluated by the chief operating decision maker (CODM). Synovus' CODM is the Chief Executive Officer. The CODM primarily utilizes revenue and non-interest expense directly attributable to a respective segment as well as actual versus expected credit losses when assessing performance and allocating resources.

Synovus has four major reportable business segments: Wholesale Banking, Community Banking, Consumer Banking, and Financial Management Services. The management accounting policies and processes utilized in compiling segment financial information are highly subjective and, unlike financial accounting, are not based on authoritative guidance similar to GAAP. As a result, reported segment results are not necessarily comparable with similar information reported by other financial institutions.

The Wholesale Banking business segment serves primarily larger corporate and governmental clients by providing commercial lending, deposit, and capital markets services through specialty teams including middle market, CRE, senior housing, premium finance, structured lending, asset-based lending, public finance, restaurant services, community investment capital, and capital markets.

The Community Banking business segment primarily serves small and medium-sized commercial clients as well as individual private wealth clients using a relationship-based approach. The commercial component of this segment focuses on locally owned and operated businesses. Private wealth services are delivered to the individuals operating the businesses as well as other individuals in the communities in which Community Banking operates. A comprehensive set of banking products are offered to the client set, including a full suite of lending, payments, and depository products as well as financial planning services.

The Consumer Banking business segment serves individual and small business clients through its branch and ATM network, in addition to digital and telephone channels. This segment provides individuals and small businesses with an array of comprehensive banking products and services, including depository accounts, credit and debit cards, payment solutions, goal-based planning, home equity and other consumer loans, and small business lending solutions.

The Financial Management Services business segment serves its clients by providing mortgage, trust services, professional portfolio management for fixed-income securities, securities underwriting and distribution, the execution of securities transactions as a broker/dealer, asset management, financial planning, and family office services, as well as the provision of individual investment advice on equity and other securities.

Functional activities such as treasury, technology, operations, marketing, finance, enterprise risk, legal, human resources, corporate communications, executive management, among others, are included in Treasury and Corporate Other. In addition, certain assets, liabilities, revenue, and expense not allocated or attributable to a particular business segment, such as Synovus' third-party consumer loans, loans held for sale, commercial card, and CIB, as well as certain reconciling items in order to translate segment results that are based on management accounting practices into consolidated results are also included in Treasury and Corporate Other.

Synovus uses a centralized FTP methodology to attribute appropriate net interest income to its business segments. The intent of the FTP methodology is to transfer interest rate risk from the business segments by providing matched duration funding of assets and liabilities. The result is to centralize the financial impact, management, and reporting of interest rate risk in the Treasury and Corporate Other function, where it can be centrally monitored and managed. Treasury and Corporate Other charges (credits) an internal cost of funds for assets held in (or pays for funding provided by) each business segment. The process for determining FTP is based on a number of factors and assumptions, including prevailing market interest rates, the expected lives of various assets and liabilities, and the Company's broader funding profile.

Provision for (reversal of) credit losses is allocated to segments based on historical annualized expected loss rates attributable to the credit risk of loans managed by the segments during the period. By comparison, the consolidated provision for (reversal of) credit losses is determined based on the ACL model using methodologies described in "Part II - Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" of Synovus' 2024 Form 10-K, with the difference between the consolidated provision for (reversal of) credit losses and the business segments' provision for (reversal of) credit losses reflected in Treasury Corporate and Other.

The following tables present certain financial information for each reportable business segment for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 and as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The application and development of management reporting methodologies is a dynamic process and is subject to periodic enhancements. As these enhancements are made, financial results presented by each reportable business segment may be periodically revised. Loan and deposit transfers occur from time to time between reportable business segments primarily to maintain the migration of clients

and relationship managers between segments; however, prior period loan and deposit balances and any related net interest income and FTP are not adjusted for transfers.

(2)						an economic downturn and contraction, including a recession, and the resulting effects on our capital, financial condition, credit quality, results of operations, and future growth, including that the strength of the current economic environment could be further weakened by recent trade policies and their impacts on us and our clients, persistent or rising inflation, interest rate fluctuations, changes in fiscal and monetary policy, and geopolitical uncertainty;
(3)						the impact of recent or proposed changes in fiscal, monetary and economic policy, laws, and regulations, or the interpretation or application thereof, and the uncertainty of future implementation and enforcement of these policies and regulations, including persistent inflationary pressures, potential interest rate fluctuations, supply chain issues, and potential changes to government policies related to immigration, trade, and government spending;

Third Quarter 2025 Overview

Net income available to common shareholders for the third quarter of 2025 was $185.6 million, or $1.33 per diluted common share, compared to $169.6 million, or $1.18 per diluted common share, for the third quarter of 2024. Net income available to common shareholders for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $575.6 million, or $4.10 per diluted common share, compared to $260.7 million, or $1.79 per diluted common share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The year-to-date year-over-year changes were impacted by losses from sales of AFS investment securities totaling $256.7 million in connection with the strategic repositioning of the investment securities portfolio in the second quarter of 2024, higher net interest income from lower funding costs, and a decrease in provision for credit losses driven by improved credit performance, including lower net charge-offs and individually analyzed reserves.

Net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $1.39 billion, up $94.1 million, or 7%, compared to the same period in 2024. Net interest margin was up 22 bps over the comparable nine-month period to 3.38%, driven by lower deposit costs due to effective deposit repricing and remixing and fixed-rate asset repricing. Net interest margin was up 4 bps on a linked quarter basis, largely attributable to higher loan yields and hedge maturities, partially offset by higher interest-earning deposits with other banks.

Non-interest revenue for the third quarter of 2025 was $140.7 million, up $16.7 million, or 13%, compared to the prior year period, primarily driven by higher core banking fees, capital markets income, and other non-interest revenue, and year-to-date was $391.3 million, up significantly compared to the same period in 2024, primarily due to the impact of the aforementioned losses from sales of AFS investment securities in the second quarter of 2024 as well as higher core banking fees.

Non-interest expense for the third quarter of 2025 was $348.7 million, up $35.0 million, or 11%, and year-to-date was $972.5 million, up $34.2 million, or 4%, compared to the same periods in 2024. The increases in both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 included $23.8 million in merger-related expense largely related to accounting, investment banking, consulting, and legal fees in association with the pending Merger with Pinnacle.

At September 30, 2025, loans, net of deferred fees and costs, of $43.75 billion increased $1.14 billion from December 31, 2024 primarily driven by C&I loan growth, which included increased production in our high growth business lines, specialty lending and CIB, and increased commercial line utilization. CRE loans increased primarily due to increased loan production. Consumer loan balances decreased due to declines in mortgage loans largely offset by growth in other consumer loans from third-party loans.

Credit metrics at September 30, 2025 included NPAs and NPLs at 53 bps and 48 bps, respectively, and total past due loans at 10 bps as a percentage of total loans. Net charge-offs/average loans for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 were 14 bps annualized and 17 bps annualized, respectively, as compared to 25 bps annualized and 33 bps annualized for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively. The ACL to loans coverage ratio at September 30, 2025 of 1.19% was 8 bps lower than December 31, 2024 primarily due to improved credit performance and the impact of strong loan growth exceeding loan provisioning. The ACL to NPL coverage ratio was 249% at September 30, 2025 compared to 174% at December 31, 2024.

Total period-end deposits at September 30, 2025 decreased $1.09 billion compared to December 31, 2024 primarily due to a decline in core deposits, partially offset by an increase in brokered deposits. Core time deposits decreased while interest-bearing demand deposits and money market accounts increased due to positive remixing into lower cost deposits. Average deposit costs of 2.23% were relatively flat in the third quarter of 2025 compared to the prior quarter and declined 49 bps compared to prior year, with the year-over-year decline supported by positive remixing within the deposit portfolio as well as the continued benefits of disciplined deposit repricing on the heels of FOMC policy rate changes since late 2024.

At September 30, 2025, Synovus' CET1 ratio of 11.22% improved 38 bps compared to December 31, 2024, as our organic earnings supported capital accretion. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, Synovus repurchased 2.9 million shares of common stock at an average price of $48.62 per share via open market transactions. In accordance with the Merger Agreement with Pinnacle, Synovus has paused share repurchases through the completion of the Merger.

More detail on Synovus' financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 may be found in subsequent sections of "Item 2. – Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" of this Report.

Pending Merger with Pinnacle Financial Partners, Inc.

On July 24, 2025, Synovus entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Pinnacle and Steel Newco Inc., a newly formed Georgia corporation jointly owned by Pinnacle and Synovus (“Newco”). The Merger Agreement provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, Pinnacle and Synovus will each simultaneously merge with and into Newco (such mergers, collectively, the “Merger”), with Newco continuing as the surviving corporation in the Merger and operating under the Pinnacle Financial Partners, Inc. and Pinnacle Bank brand names. The holding company will be headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia with the bank headquarters in Nashville, Tennessee.

The transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2026 pending regulatory and shareholder approvals, and during the third quarter 2025, integration planning was actively underway, with leadership and governance structures aligned to ensure a seamless transition.

On September 30, 2025, Synovus filed its Definitive Proxy Statement and has a special shareholder meeting scheduled on November 6, 2025 for shareholder approval of the Merger.

(1) Includes senior housing loans of $2.95 billion, $2.94 billion, and $3.10 billion at September 30, 2025, December 31, 2024, and September 30, 2024, respectively, which are primarily classified as owner-occupied in accordance with our underwriting process.

At September 30, 2025, loans, net of deferred fees and costs of $43.75 billion increased $1.14 billion, or 3%, from December 31, 2024. C&I loans remain the largest component of our loan portfolio, representing 53.1% of total loans, while CRE and consumer loans represent 28.0% and 18.9%, respectively. Our portfolio composition is guided by our strategic growth plan, in conjunction with a comprehensive concentration management policy which sets limits for C&I, CRE, and consumer loan levels as well as sub-categories therein.

Commercial Loans

Total commercial loans (which are comprised of C&I and CRE loans) at September 30, 2025 were $35.50 billion, or 81.1% of the total loan portfolio, compared to $34.35 billion, or 80.6%, at December 31, 2024.

Synovus actively manages and evaluates credit risk associated with its commercial loans through robust underwriting policies and routine loan monitoring in order to identify and mitigate any weakness as early as possible. Synovus’ management, along with its Chief Credit Officer and Credit Risk Committee, continually monitors and evaluates commercial concentrations by property class, industry, and relative to regulatory capital to remain in line with Board-established limits and adapt to changing industry conditions. As part of its risk management efforts, Synovus monitors its commercial loan portfolio on an ongoing basis to assess credit risks, identify emerging risks, and adjust its lending limits taking into account, among other things, (1) the size, complexity, and level of risk of loans and individual borrowers, (2) changes in the level of credit risk at both the borrower and portfolio level, (3) concentrations of credit risk pertaining to both specific industries and geographies in its loan portfolio, (4) loan structure, collateral location and quality, and project progress, and (5) economic forecasts and industry outlook.

Synovus has established recommended credit exposure limits for large commercial lending relationships based on Synovus' internal risk ratings for an individual borrower at the time the lending commitment is approved, with the final exposure limit being determined by the appropriate credit approval committee. Commercial credits are subject to review according to credit risk management monitoring practices as outlined in Synovus' loan policy, as well as a sampling process performed by Synovus Credit Review to ensure uniform application of policies and procedures and to validate risk rating accuracy. Synovus prepares targeted stress tests on a routine basis for its commercial loans. This testing is completed in addition to sensitivity testing completed at the initial extension of credit.

Commercial and Industrial Loans

The C&I loan portfolio represents the largest category of Synovus' loan portfolio and is primarily comprised of general middle market and commercial banking clients across a diverse set of industries as well as certain specialized lending verticals. The following table shows the composition of the C&I loan portfolio aggregated by NAICS code. As of September 30, 2025

46

---

and December 31, 2024, 95.0% and 95.1%, respectively, of Synovus' C&I loans are secured by real estate, business equipment, inventory, and other types of collateral. C&I loans at September 30, 2025 grew $897.8 million from December 31, 2024, driven by production in our high growth business lines, including specialty lending and CIB, and increased commercial line utilization.

(1) Loan balance in each category expressed as a percentage of total C&I loans.

(2) Comprised of NAICS industries that are less than 1% of total C&I loans.

At September 30, 2025, $15.36 billion of C&I loans, or 35.1% of the total loan portfolio, represented loans originated for the purpose of financing commercial, financial and agricultural business activities. The primary source of repayment on these loans is revenue generated from products or services offered by the business or organization. The secondary source of repayment is the collateral, which consists primarily of equipment, inventory, accounts receivable, time deposits, cash surrender value of life insurance, and other business assets, or refinance.

At September 30, 2025, $7.87 billion of C&I loans, or 18.0% of the total loan portfolio, represented loans originated for the purpose of financing owner-occupied properties. The financing of owner-occupied facilities is considered a C&I loan even though there is improved real estate as collateral such as senior housing facilities. This treatment is a result of the credit decision process, which focuses on cash flow from operations of the business to repay the debt. The secondary source of repayment on these loans is the underlying real estate. These loans are predominantly secured by owner-occupied and other real estate and, to a lesser extent, other types of collateral.

Commercial Real Estate Loans

CRE loans consist primarily of income-producing investment properties loans. Additionally, CRE loans include 1-4 family properties loans as well as land and development loans. Total CRE loans of $12.27 billion increased $255.1 million from December 31, 2024, primarily due to increased loan production.

Investment properties loans consist of construction and mortgage loans for income-producing properties and are primarily made to finance multi-family properties, hotels, office buildings, shopping centers, warehouses and other commercial development properties. Total investment properties loans as of September 30, 2025 were $11.46 billion, or 93.4% of the CRE loan portfolio, and increased $280.9 million from December 31, 2024.

(2)    LTV calculated by dividing the respective September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 commitment amount and senior lien by most recent appraisal (typically at origination).

1-4 Family Properties Loans

1-4 family properties loans include construction loans to home builders and commercial mortgage loans related to 1-4 family rental properties and are almost always secured by the underlying property being financed by such loans. These properties are primarily located in the markets served by Synovus. At September 30, 2025, 1-4 family properties loans totaled $548.3 million, or 4.5% of the CRE loan portfolio, and increased $2.4 million from December 31, 2024.

Land and Development Loans

Land and development loans include commercial and residential development as well as land acquisition loans and are secured by land held for future development, typically in excess of one year. Properties securing these loans are substantially within markets served by Synovus, and loan terms generally include personal guarantees from the principals. Loans in this portfolio are underwritten based on the LTV of the collateral and the capacity of the guarantor(s). Land and development loans of $259.3 million at September 30, 2025 decreased $28.2 million from December 31, 2024.

Consumer Loans

The consumer loan portfolio consists of a wide variety of loan products offered through Synovus' banking network, including first and second residential mortgages, home equity and consumer credit card loans, as well as both secured and unsecured loans from third-party lending. As of September 30, 2025, weighted-average FICO scores within the residential real estate portfolio based on committed balances were 785 for consumer mortgages and 796 for home equity.

Consumer loans at September 30, 2025 of $8.25 billion decreased $8.8 million compared to December 31, 2024. Mortgage loans declined $51.1 million from December 31, 2024 primarily due to payments exceeding new portfolio production, which has been impacted by elevated mortgage interest rates. Other consumer loans increased $41.0 million from December 31, 2024, as fundings outpaced payment activity for third-party loans.

Deposits

Deposits provide the most significant funding source for interest earning assets. The following table shows the composition of period-end deposits as of the dates indicated. See Table 11 - Quarter-to-Date Net Interest Income and Rate/Volume Analysis

Core deposits(3)			$	44,977,487					89.9		%				$	46,220,129					90.5		%				$	45,088,301					89.8		%

(1)    Deposits balance in each category expressed as percentage of total deposits.

(2)    Excluding any public funds or brokered deposits.

(3)    Core deposits exclude brokered deposits.

Total period-end deposits at September 30, 2025 were down $1.09 billion, or 2%, compared to December 31, 2024 primarily due to a $1.24 billion decrease in core deposits, partially offset by $151.0 million of growth in brokered deposits. The decline in core deposits was primarily attributable to reductions in core time deposits, public funds, and non-interest-bearing demand deposits, partially offset by growth in money market and interest-bearing demand deposits. The decrease in core time deposits and increases in interest-bearing demand deposits and money market accounts are related as positive remixing resulted in a shift to lower cost deposits while the decline in public funds was primarily driven by seasonality. The decline in non-interest-bearing demand deposits was impacted by timing.

Total average deposit costs of 2.23% in the third quarter of 2025 were relatively flat from the prior quarter and declined 49 bps compared to the prior year comparable period, with the year-over-year decline supported by the aforementioned positive remixing within the deposit portfolio as well as the continued benefits of disciplined deposit repricing on the heels of FOMC policy rate changes since late 2024.

As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, $25.71 billion and $26.40 billion, respectively, of our deposit portfolio was uninsured. The uninsured amounts are estimated based on the methodologies and assumptions used for the Bank's regulatory reporting requirements and includes deposits which are collateralized.

(1) Core banking fees consist of service charges on deposit accounts, card fees, and several other non-interest revenue components including line of credit non-usage fees, letter of credit fees, ATM fee income, and miscellaneous other service charges.

(2) Wealth revenue consists of fiduciary and asset management, brokerage, and insurance revenue, which is within other non-interest revenue.

Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025 compared to September 30, 2024

Non-interest revenue for the third quarter of 2025 and year to date was up compared to the same periods in 2024. The increase for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was primarily driven by higher core banking fees, capital markets income, and other non-interest revenue while the year-to-date increase was primarily due to the impact of losses from sales of AFS investment securities totaling $256.7 million in connection with the strategic repositioning of the investment securities portfolio in the second quarter of 2024, as well as increased core banking fees.

Service charges on deposit accounts, consisting of account analysis fees, NSF fees, and all other service charges increased over the prior year comparable periods. The largest category of service charges, account analysis fees, increased $815 thousand, or 6%, compared to the third quarter of 2024 and were up $3.8 million, or 10%, on a comparable year-to-date basis, primarily due to a reduction in waivers that began in the second quarter of 2024. All other service charges on deposit accounts, including NSF/overdraft fees and monthly fees on consumer demand deposits and small business accounts, increased 16% and 8% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, in comparison to the same periods in 2024, and were impacted by increases in other retail service charges on deposits from lower waivers on consumer demand deposit accounts.

Fiduciary and asset management fees are derived from providing estate administration, personal trust, corporate trust, corporate bond, investment management, financial planning, and family office services. Fiduciary and asset management fees were up for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to the same periods in 2024, primarily driven by higher trust fees from custody and investment advisor fees.

Card fees consist primarily of credit card interchange fees, debit card interchange fees, and merchant revenue. Card fees are reported net of certain associated expense items, including client loyalty program expenses and network expenses. Merchant revenue relates to the fees that are charged to merchant clients based on a percentage of their credit or debit card transaction volume amounts. Card fees for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 were up compared to the same periods in 2024, primarily due to higher merchant fees/revenue, including our Qualpay investment.

Brokerage revenue consists primarily of brokerage commissions as well as advisory fees earned from the management of client assets. Brokerage revenue for the third quarter of 2025 increased over the prior year comparable period, with growth mainly attributable to higher market-driven advisory fees partially offset by repurchase volume associated with a single municipal client. The decline for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 largely

50

---

resulted from repurchase volume associated with a single municipal client and decreased rate-driven annuities revenue, partially offset by higher market-driven advisory fees.

Mortgage banking income, consisting of net gains on loan origination/sales activities, increased for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024, primarily due to positive fair market value adjustments attributed to a more favorable interest rate environment.

Capital markets income primarily includes fee income from client derivative transactions, debt capital market transactions, foreign exchange, gains (losses) from sales of SBA loans, as well as other miscellaneous income from capital market transactions. The increase in the third quarter of 2025 compared to the third quarter of 2024 was primarily due to higher client derivative transactions and syndication arranger fees, somewhat offset by lower foreign exchange-related income and a decline in gains on sales of SBA loans. The increase for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the prior year-to-date period was mostly the result of higher client derivative transactions and syndication arranger fees, partially offset by a decrease in gains on sales of SBA loans and lower debt capital market transaction fees.

Income from BOLI includes increases in the cash surrender value of policies and proceeds from insurance benefits. The increases for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same periods in 2024 were primarily driven by higher proceeds from insurance benefits.

The main components of other non-interest revenue are fees for letters of credit and unused lines of credit, safe deposit box fees, access fees for ATM use, other service charges and loan servicing fees, earnings on equity method investments, insurance revenue, commercial sponsorship income, including transaction and servicing fees associated with a third-party lending relationship, and other miscellaneous items. The three months ended September 30, 2025 increase compared to the prior year period was largely due to $2.1 million in ORE rental income, in addition to increases in unused lines of credit fees and letter/line of credit fees. The nine months ended September 30, 2025 increase compared to the previous year-to-date period was primarily due to the aforementioned increases in unused lines of credit fees and letter/line of credit fees and ORE rental income, largely offset by a $3.1 million decline in commercial sponsorship income.

Non-interest Expense

The following table summarizes the components of non-interest expense.

Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025 compared to September 30, 2024

Non-interest expense for the third quarter of 2025 was $348.7 million, up $35.0 million, or 11%, compared to the third quarter 2024, while year to date was $972.5 million, up $34.2 million, or 4%, compared to the same period in 2024. The

51

---

increases included $23.8 million in merger-related expense during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, largely related to accounting, investment banking, consulting, and legal fees in association with the pending Merger with Pinnacle.

Salaries and other personnel expense increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 primarily due to the impact of headcount additions, merit increases and higher performance-related incentives. Total headcount of 4,923 was up 117, or 2% compared to September 30, 2024, as employees were added in areas associated with certain critical support functions, such as technology, operations, and security, and revenue growth, including the accelerated hiring of relationship managers.

Net occupancy, equipment, and software expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 increased compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 primarily due to ongoing investments in technology.

Third-party processing and other services expense includes all third-party core operating system and processing charges as well as third-party loan servicing charges. Third-party processing expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 increased compared to the same period in 2024 largely due to enhancements associated with technology and operations infrastructure investments and new business initiatives in addition to higher servicing fees associated with third-party consumer loans.

Professional fees were up for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to 2024 largely due to an increase in project/IT-related consulting fees, partially offset by lower litigation expense. The nine months ended September 30, 2025 decrease was mostly due to lower legal fees and litigation expense primarily associated with the process of resolving certain loan relationships, substantially offset by higher project/IT-related consulting fees.

FDIC insurance and other regulatory fees decreased for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 primarily due to an $8.6 million decline in the accrual for the FDIC special assessment, in addition to a lower base assessment rate.

Restructuring charges primarily consist of lease termination and asset impairment charges on offices/branches and severance expense. Restructuring reversals primarily consist of gains on sales of properties and other true-ups to restructuring charges.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, Synovus recorded valuation adjustments of $2.9 million and $5.1 million, respectively, to the Visa derivative associated with an indemnification agreement following Visa's announcement to fund to its litigation escrow account. In 2024, Synovus recorded a valuation adjustment of $8.7 million to the Visa derivative associated with an indemnification agreement following Visa's announcement to fund its litigation escrow account.

Other operating expense includes advertising, travel, insurance, network and communication, other taxes, subscriptions and dues, other loan and ORE expense, postage and freight, training, business development, supplies, donations, and other miscellaneous expense. Other operating expense for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was up from the comparable period in 2024 primarily due to increases in business development-related travel and advertising expense, and ORE expense, partially offset by efforts to reduce client fraud and other operational losses. Other operating expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, was up from the comparable period in 2024 primarily due to higher business development-related expense, and an increase in subscriptions and dues, a donation to our donor advised fund, and increased ORE expense, partially offset by a reduction in client fraud and other operational losses and other prudent expense management efforts.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense was $48.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $46.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, representing effective tax rates of 19.8% and 20.6%, respectively. Income tax expense was $163.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $76.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, representing effective tax rates of 21.1% and 20.9%, respectively.

The effective tax rate was lower for the three month period but higher for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, due to varying levels of pre-tax income and a change in the timing and mix of discrete tax items recognized in the comparable periods in the prior year. Discrete items affecting comparability include tax benefits from share-based compensation, the accrual and release of valuation allowances or reserves for uncertain tax positions, and accounting for changes in tax laws, all of which can vary significantly from period to period.

CREDIT QUALITY, CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

Credit Quality

Synovus diligently monitors the quality of its loan portfolio by industry, property type, and geography through a thorough portfolio review process and our analytical risk management tools. Such credit surveillance efforts are part of a broader credit risk management framework which includes Board oversight, as well as management-level committee oversight at varying levels across the portfolio. Governance includes limits across a host of factors, ranging from borrower-specific metrics and

52

---

concentrations to enterprise-level portfolio concentrations. These measures are further complemented by an enterprise risk appetite framework, which helps ensure an expansive view across a myriad of credit risks within the portfolio.

At September 30, 2025, credit metrics included NPAs and NPLs at 53 bps and 48 bps, respectively, and total past due loans at 10 bps as a percentage of total loans. Net charge-offs were $15.2 million, or 14 bps annualized, and $54.9 million, or 17 bps annualized, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025.

The table below includes selected credit quality metrics.

Non-performing Assets

Total NPAs were $231.7 million at September 30, 2025, a $77.8 million, or 25%, decrease from December 31, 2024 primarily due to the resolution of several non-performing loan relationships and consistently lower NPL inflows.

Criticized and Classified Loans

Our loan ratings are aligned to federal banking regulators' definitions of pass and criticized categories, which include special mention, substandard, doubtful, and loss. Substandard accruing and non-accruing loans, doubtful, and loss loans are often collectively referred to as classified. Special mention, substandard, doubtful, and loss loans are often collectively referred to as criticized and classified loans. The following table presents a summary of criticized and classified loans. Criticized and classified loans at September 30, 2025 decreased $201.6 million compared to December 31, 2024, primarily due to the upward migration and paydowns of several commercial credits.

Table 9 - Criticized and Classified Loans
(dollars in thousands)			September 30, 2025						December 31, 2024

Provision for (Reversal of) Credit Losses and Allowance for Credit Losses

The provision for credit losses was $21.7 million and $35.9 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to a provision of $23.4 million and $103.8 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024. The decreases were primarily driven by improved performance, including a decrease in net charge-offs and individually analyzed reserves. Net charge-offs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 were $15.2 million and $54.9 million, respectively, as compared to $27.1 million and $105.9 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

The ALL of $469.5 million and the reserve for unfunded commitments of $50.7 million, which is recorded in other liabilities, comprise the total ACL of $520.3 million at September 30, 2025. The ACL decreased $19.0 million compared to the December 31, 2024 ACL of $539.3 million, which consisted of an ALL of $486.8 million and a reserve for unfunded commitments of $52.5 million. The ACL to loans coverage ratio of 1.19% at September 30, 2025 decreased 8 bps compared to December 31, 2024 primarily due to improved credit performance and the impact of strong loan growth exceeding loan provisioning. The ACL to NPL coverage ratio was 249% at September 30, 2025 compared to 174% at December 31, 2024.

Capital Resources

Synovus and Synovus Bank are required to comply with capital adequacy standards established by our primary federal regulator, the Federal Reserve. Synovus and Synovus Bank measure capital adequacy using the standardized approach under Basel III. Beyond adhering to regulatory capital standards, Synovus also maintains a rigorous capital management and adequacy framework, which includes oversight by both the ALCO and the Board. This effort involves monitoring and managing our capital position in alignment with our Board’s risk appetite framework and with a Board-approved annual capital plan, with a focus on applicable regulatory capital ratios. Our ALCO serves to provide management level oversight within this framework, which may include establishing target operating ranges for certain capital measures, such as CET1, as a means to provide further clarity over the management of our capital position.

(1) Synovus adopted CECL on January 1, 2020, and the December 31, 2024 regulatory capital ratios reflect the final year of Synovus' election of the five-year transition provision.

At September 30, 2025, Synovus' CET1 ratio of 11.22% improved 38 bps compared to December 31, 2024, as our organic earnings supported capital accretion. For additional information on regulatory capital requirements, see "Part II - Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 10 - Regulatory Capital" to the consolidated financial statements of Synovus' 2024 Form 10-K. Management reviews the Company's capital position on an ongoing basis and believes, based on internal capital analyses and earnings projections, that Synovus is well positioned to meet relevant regulatory capital standards.

On December 13, 2024, the Board of Directors approved a capital plan that included an anticipated quarterly common stock dividend of $0.39 per share, beginning with the quarterly dividend payable in April 2025, and authorized share repurchases of up to $400 million of common stock and $50 million of preferred stock in 2025. During the three months ended September 30, 2025, Synovus did not repurchase shares of common stock. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, Synovus repurchased 2.9 million shares of common stock at an average price of $48.62 per share via open market transactions. In accordance with the Merger Agreement with Pinnacle, Synovus has paused share repurchases through the completion of the Merger. The priorities on capital deployment will continue to be loan growth and capital needs related to the Merger.

As Synovus is registered as a bank holding company and has elected to be treated as a financial holding company, we are subject to comprehensive supervision and regulation by the Federal Reserve and are subject to its regulatory reporting requirements. The Federal Reserve also requires bank holding companies meeting certain asset size thresholds, such as us, to establish and maintain a risk committee of its board of directors and appoint a chief risk officer, each meeting certain requirements.

Upon completion of the Merger between Synovus and Pinnacle, the combined company, Newco, would surpass the $100 billion threshold which would designate the new combined company as a Category IV Large Financial Institution according to U.S. regulatory guidelines. This new classification will subject Newco to the Federal Reserve's enhanced prudential standards, designed to ensure risk management capabilities grow in line with our systemic footprint including but not limited to additional rigorous capital planning such as stress testing under the CCAR process, liquidity risk management, resolution planning, and additional governance and reporting requirements. Refer to "Part II – Item 1A. Risk Factors - Risks Relating to the Merger with

Pinnacle," of this Report for further information.

Dividends

Synovus has historically paid a quarterly cash dividend to the holders of its common stock. Management and the Board of Directors closely monitor current and projected capital levels, liquidity (including dividends from subsidiaries), financial markets and other economic trends, as well as regulatory requirements regarding the payment of dividends.

Synovus' ability to pay dividends on its common stock and preferred stock is primarily dependent upon dividends and distributions that it receives from its bank and non-banking subsidiaries, which are restricted by various regulations administered by federal and state bank regulatory authorities.

Synovus declared common stock dividends of $162.9 million, or $1.17 per common share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $164.4 million, or $1.14 per common share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. In addition, Synovus declared dividends on its preferred stock of $34.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $31.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Liquidity

Liquidity represents the extent to which Synovus has readily available sources of funding to meet the needs of depositors, borrowers, and creditors; to support asset growth; and to otherwise sustain operations of Synovus and its subsidiaries, at a reasonable cost, on a timely basis, and without adverse consequences. ALCO monitors Synovus' economic, competitive, and regulatory environment and is responsible for measuring, monitoring, and reporting on liquidity and funding risk as well as market risk.

In accordance with Synovus policies and regulatory guidance, ALCO evaluates contractual and anticipated cash flows under normal and stressed conditions to properly manage the Company’s liquidity profile. Synovus places an emphasis on maintaining numerous sources of current and contingent liquidity to meet its obligations to depositors, borrowers, and creditors on a timely basis. Liquidity is generated through various sources, including, but not limited to, maturities and repayments of loans by clients, maturities and sales of investment securities, and growth in core and wholesale deposits.

Synovus Bank also generates liquidity through the issuance of brokered certificates of deposit and money market accounts. Synovus Bank accesses funds from a broad geographic base to diversify its sources of funding and liquidity. Synovus Bank also has the capacity to access funding through its membership in the FHLB system and the Federal Reserve. Management continuously monitors and maintains appropriate levels of liquidity so as to provide adequate funding sources to manage client deposit withdrawals, loan requests, and other funding demands.

Total deposits at September 30, 2025 decreased $1.09 billion compared to December 31, 2024, primarily due to a $1.24 billion decrease in core deposits, partially offset by $151.0 million of growth in brokered deposits. The decline in core deposits was primarily attributable to reductions in core time deposits, public funds, and non-interest-bearing demand deposits, partially offset by growth in money market and interest-bearing demand deposits. The decrease in core time deposits and increases in interest-bearing demand deposits and money market accounts are related as positive remixing resulted in a shift to lower cost deposits while the decline in public funds was primarily driven by seasonality. The decline in non-interest-bearing demand deposits was impacted by timing. To fund the difference at September 30, 2025, compared to December 31, 2024, between loan growth of $1.14 billion and the aforementioned decline in deposits, long-term FHLB advances (within long-term debt) were leveraged as the balance grew by $1.60 billion compared to December 31, 2024. Synovus continues to proactively manage its liquidity position, which has included the level of brokered deposits, and robust contingent liquidity is maintained across a diverse set of sources which include immediately available funds as well as funds we expect to be available within short notice. Liquidity sources include primary sources such as FHLB borrowing capacity, FRB cash reserves, unencumbered securities, and third-party consumer loans, which includes strategic runoff, while secondary sources consist of the Federal Reserve discount window, Fed Funds lines, and other sources. At September 30, 2025, contingent sources of liquidity totaled approximately $25.1 billion, and based on currently pledged collateral, Synovus Bank had access to FHLB funding of $5.90 billion, subject to FHLB credit policies.

In addition to bank level liquidity management, Synovus must manage liquidity at the Parent Company level for various operating needs, including the servicing of debt, the payment of dividends on our common stock and preferred stock, payment of general corporate expense, and potential capital infusions into subsidiaries. The primary source of liquidity for Synovus consists of dividends from Synovus Bank, which is governed by certain rules and regulations of the GA DBF and the Federal Reserve Bank. Synovus' ability to receive dividends from Synovus Bank in future periods will depend on a number of factors, including, without limitation, Synovus Bank's future profits, asset quality, liquidity, and overall condition. In addition, both the GA DBF and Federal Reserve Bank may require approval to pay dividends, based on certain regulatory statutes and limitations.

Synovus presently believes that the sources of liquidity discussed above, including existing liquid funds on hand, are sufficient to meet its anticipated funding needs. However, if economic conditions were to significantly deteriorate, regulatory capital requirements for Synovus or Synovus Bank were to increase as a result of regulatory directives or otherwise, or Synovus believes it is prudent to enhance current liquidity levels, then Synovus may seek additional liquidity from external sources. Furthermore, Synovus may, from time to time, take advantage of attractive market opportunities to refinance, retire, or repurchase its existing debt, redeem or issue its preferred stock, repurchase shares, or strengthen its liquidity or capital position.

Earning Assets and Sources of Funds

Average earning assets increased $228.3 million in the first nine months of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024. The increase in average earning assets primarily resulted from a $521.4 million increase in interest-earning deposits with other banks, partially offset by a $338.2 million decrease in average total loans, net of unearned income. The increase in interest-earning deposits with other banks was primarily the result of ongoing active management of our liquidity position. The decrease in average total loans, net of unearned income, was largely due to increased paydowns.

Average interest-bearing liabilities increased $1.01 billion for the first nine months of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024. The increase in average interest-bearing liabilities largely resulted from increases of $1.34 billion and $751.3 million in average money market accounts and average interest-bearing demand deposits, respectively, coupled with an increase of $581.9 million in long-term debt, primarily due to our $500.0 million Senior debt issuance in the fourth quarter of 2024, partially offset by decreases of $867.0 million and $656.4 million in average time deposits and average brokered deposits, respectively. The increases in average money market accounts and average interest-bearing demand deposits and decreases in average brokered deposits and average time deposits were correlated, as positive deposit remixing resulted in a shift towards lower cost deposits. Average non-interest-bearing demand deposits decreased $567.2 million for the first nine months of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 primarily due to the continued pressures from the rate environment, which resulted in shifts into interest-bearing deposits and client deployment of excess funds, which largely occurred in the first half of 2024.

Net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $1.39 billion, up $94.1 million, or 7%, compared to the same period in 2024. Net interest margin was up 22 bps over the comparable period to 3.38%, primarily due to lower deposit costs as a result of effective deposit repricing and remixing and fixed-rate asset repricing.

On a sequential quarter basis, net interest income was up $15.1 million, or 3%, and net interest margin for the third quarter of 2025 was up 4 bps compared to the second quarter of 2025. The linked quarter increase in the net interest margin was largely due to higher loan yields and hedge maturities, partially offset by higher interest-earning deposits with other banks balances.

Market Risk Analysis

Interest rate risk is the primary market risk to which Synovus is potentially exposed. Synovus measures the sensitivity of net interest income to changes in market interest rates through the use of simulation modeling, which incorporates all of Synovus’ earning assets and liabilities. These simulations are used to determine a baseline net interest income projection and the sensitivity of the income profile based on changes in interest rates. These simulations incorporate assumptions and factors, including, but not limited to, changes in market rates, in the size or composition of the balance sheet, and in repricing characteristics as well as client behaviors for both loans and deposits. This includes estimates for deposit repricing characteristics which, for purposes of the sensitivity estimates provided below, relies upon a constant, through-the-cycle total deposit cost beta of approximately 40%-50% as of the most recently reported period. The deposit beta assumptions are based on historical observations and future expectations. This process is reviewed and updated on an ongoing basis in a manner consistent with Synovus’ ALCO governance framework.

The Risk Committee of the Board has chartered the ALCO and approved related policies to aid in the management and governance of various risks, including interest rate risk. The ALCO has an established limit framework for interest rate risk, which is monitored on an ongoing basis and is in alignment with the tolerances and limits as established by the Board. Additionally, Synovus’ ERM framework establishes a Board-approved risk appetite statement, which includes certain quantitative measurements for interest rate risk and helps to ensure management operates within the Board’s established appetite.

Synovus has modeled its baseline net interest income forecast assuming an interest rate projection that is flat to September 30, 2025 interest rate curves, with the federal funds rate at the Federal Reserve’s targeted range of 4.00% to 4.25% as of September 30, 2025 and the prime rate of 7.25% as of September 30, 2025. Synovus has modeled the impact of an immediate change in market interest rates across the yield curve of 100 and 200 bps to determine the sensitivity of net interest income for the next 12 months. As illustrated in the table below, the net interest income sensitivity derived from this simulation suggests that net interest income is projected to increase by 4.8% and 2.4% if interest rates increased by 200 and 100 bps, respectively. Net interest income is projected to decrease by 2.4% and 4.5% if interest rates decreased by 100 and 200 bps, respectively.

The following table represents the estimated sensitivity of net interest income at September 30, 2025, with comparable information for December 31, 2024.

Table 13 - Twelve Month Net Interest Income Sensitivity
						Estimated % Change in Net Interest Income as Compared to Unchanged Rates (for the next 12 months)
Change in Interest Rates (in bps)						September 30, 2025						December 31, 2024
+200						4.8%						4.0%
+100						2.4						2.0
-100						(2.4)						(2.0)
-200						(4.5)						(3.8)

While all of the above estimates are reflective of the general interest rate sensitivity of Synovus, local market conditions, the realized growth and remixing of the balance sheet, as well as the broader macroeconomic environment could all have a significant impact on both the sensitivity and realized level of net interest income. Additionally, should there be differences between realized deposit betas for a given level of rates as compared to the Company's estimates for through-the-cycle betas, this may also have a significant impact on our reported sensitivity and the realized level of net interest income.

The net interest income simulation model is the primary tool utilized to evaluate potential interest rate risks over a shorter-term time horizon. Synovus also evaluates potential longer-term interest rate risk through modeling and evaluation of the sensitivity of the Company's EVE. The EVE measurement process estimates the net fair value of assets, liabilities, and off-balance sheet financial instruments under various interest rate scenarios. Management uses EVE sensitivity analyses as an additional means of measuring interest rate risk and incorporates this form of analysis within its governance and limits framework.

Synovus is also subject to market risk in certain of its fee income business lines. Financial management services revenue, which include trust, brokerage, and asset management fees, can be affected by risk in the securities markets, primarily the equity securities market. A significant portion of the fees in this unit are determined based upon a percentage of asset values. Weaker securities markets and lower equity values have an adverse impact on the fees generated by these operations. Trading account assets, maintained to facilitate brokerage client activity, are also subject to market risk; however, trading activities are limited and subject to risk policy limits. Additionally, Synovus utilizes various tools to measure and manage price risk in its trading portfolio.

Mortgage banking income is also subject to market risk. Mortgage loan originations are sensitive to levels of mortgage interest rates and therefore, mortgage banking income can be negatively impacted during a period of sustained elevated interest rates as we have been experiencing through the cycle. The extension of commitments to clients to fund mortgage loans also subjects Synovus to market risk. This risk is primarily created by the time periods between making the commitment, closing, and delivering the loan. Synovus seeks to minimize its exposure by utilizing various risk management tools, including forward sales commitments and other economic hedges.

Derivative Instruments for Interest Rate Risk Management

Synovus utilizes derivative instruments to manage its exposure to various types of structural interest rate risks by executing end-user derivative transactions designated as hedges. Hedging relationships may be designated as either a cash flow hedge, which mitigates risk exposure to the variability of future cash flows or other forecasted transactions, or a fair value hedge, which mitigates risk exposure to adverse changes in the fair market value of a fixed rate asset or liability due to changes in market interest rates.

As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, Synovus had $3.85 billion and $4.35 billion, respectively, in notional amounts outstanding of both effective and forward-starting interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedging instruments to hedge its exposure to contractually specified interest rate risk associated with floating rate loans.

As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, Synovus had $1.65 billion and $2.10 billion, respectively, in notional amounts outstanding of receive-fixed, pay-variable interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedging instruments to hedge its exposure to the change in the fair value due to fluctuations in market interest rates for outstanding fixed-rate long-term debt and fixed-rate interest-bearing deposits.

Critical Accounting Policies

The accounting and financial reporting policies of Synovus are in accordance with GAAP and conform to the accounting and reporting guidelines prescribed by bank regulatory authorities. Synovus has identified certain of its accounting policies as “critical accounting policies,” consisting of those related to the allowance for credit losses and income taxes. In determining which accounting policies are critical in nature, Synovus has identified the policies that require significant judgment or involve complex estimates. It is management's practice to discuss critical accounting policies with the Board of Directors' Audit Committee on a periodic basis, including the development, selection, implementation, and disclosure of the critical accounting policies. The application of these policies has a significant impact on Synovus’ unaudited interim consolidated financial statements. Synovus’ financial results could differ significantly if different judgments or estimates are used in the application of these policies. All accounting policies described in "Part II - Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" in Synovus' 2024 Form 10-K should be reviewed for a greater understanding of how we record and report our financial performance. There have been no significant changes to the accounting policies, estimates, and assumptions, or the judgments affecting the application of these estimates and assumptions from those disclosed in Synovus' 2024 Form 10-K.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The measures entitled adjusted non-interest revenue, adjusted non-interest expense, adjusted revenue TE, adjusted tangible efficiency ratio, adjusted PPNR, adjusted net income available to common shareholders, adjusted net income per common share, diluted, adjusted return on average assets, adjusted return on average common equity, return on average tangible common equity, adjusted return on average tangible common equity, and tangible common equity ratio, are not measures recognized under GAAP and therefore are considered non-GAAP financial measures. The most comparable GAAP measures to these measures are total non-interest revenue, total non-interest expense, total revenue, efficiency ratio-TE, PPNR, net income available to common shareholders, net income per common share, diluted, return on average assets, return on average common equity, and the ratio of total Synovus Financial Corp. shareholders' equity to total assets, respectively.

Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful additional information about Synovus to assist management and investors in evaluating Synovus’ operating results, financial strength, the performance of its business, and the strength of its capital position. However, these non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analyses of operating results or capital position as reported under GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures should be considered as additional views of the way our financial measures are affected by significant items and other factors, and since they are not required to be uniformly applied, they may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures at other companies. Adjusted non-interest revenue and adjusted revenue TE are measures used by management to evaluate non-interest revenue and total revenue exclusive of net investment securities gains (losses), fair value adjustments on non-qualified deferred compensation, and other items not indicative of ongoing operations that could impact period-to-period comparisons. Adjusted non-interest expense and the adjusted tangible efficiency ratio are measures utilized by management to measure the success of expense management initiatives focused on reducing recurring

controllable operating costs. Adjusted net income available to common shareholders, adjusted net income per common share, diluted, adjusted return on average assets, adjusted return on average common equity, and adjusted PPNR are measures used by management to evaluate operating results exclusive of items that are not indicative of ongoing operations and impact period-to-period comparisons. Return on average tangible common equity and adjusted return on average tangible common equity are measures used by management to compare Synovus' performance with other financial institutions because it calculates the return available to common shareholders without the impact of intangible assets and their related amortization, thereby allowing management to evaluate the performance of the business consistently. The tangible common equity ratio is used by stakeholders to assess our capital position. The computations of these measures are set forth in the tables below.

Management does not provide a reconciliation for forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures where it is unable to provide a meaningful or accurate calculation or estimation of reconciling items and the information is not available without unreasonable effort. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the occurrence and the financial impact of various items that have not yet occurred, are out of Synovus’ control, or cannot be reasonably predicted. For the same reasons, Synovus’ management is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information. Forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures provided without the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures may vary materially from the corresponding GAAP financial measures.

ITEM 3. – QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

    The information presented in the Market Risk Analysis section of the Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section of this Report is incorporated herein by reference.

ITEM 4. – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, an evaluation was carried out by Synovus' management, with the participation of Synovus' Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of Synovus' disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Based on that evaluation, Synovus' Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of September 30, 2025, Synovus' disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

There have been no material changes in Synovus' internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, Synovus' internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. – OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. – LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

See "Part I - Item 1. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 8 - Commitments and Contingencies" of this Report.

ITEM 1A. – RISK FACTORS

In addition to the other information set forth in this Report, in evaluating an investment in the Company's securities, investors should consider carefully, among other things, the risk factors previously disclosed in "Part I - Item IA - Risk Factors" of Synovus' 2024 Form 10-K which could materially affect the Company's business, financial position, results of operations, cash flows, or future results. Please be aware that these risks may change over time and other risks may prove to be important in the future. New risks may emerge at any time, and we cannot predict such risks or estimate the extent to which they may affect our business, financial condition or results of operations, or the trading price of our securities.

Other than the risk factors set forth below, there are no material changes during the period covered by this Report to the risk factors previously disclosed in our 2024 Form 10-K.

Risks Relating to the Merger with Pinnacle

We have identified certain additional risk factors in connection with the Merger Agreement and the proposed Merger. These risks and the other risks associated with the proposed Merger will be more fully discussed in the joint proxy statement/prospectus that will be included in the registration statement on Form S-4 that Newco intends to file with the SEC in connection with the Merger.

The consummation of the Merger is contingent upon the satisfaction of a number of conditions, including shareholder and regulatory approvals, that may be outside either party’s control and that either party may be unable to satisfy or obtain or which may delay the consummation of the Merger or result in the imposition of conditions that could reduce the anticipated benefits from the Merger or cause the parties to abandon the Merger.

Consummation of the Merger is contingent upon the satisfaction of a number of conditions, some of which are beyond either party’s control, including, among others:

•approval of the Merger Agreement by Synovus’ and Pinnacle’s shareholders;

•authorization for listing on the NYSE of the shares of Newco common stock and Newco preferred stock (or any depositary shares in respect thereof) to be issued in connection with the Merger;

•the receipt of required regulatory approvals;

•effectiveness of the registration statement on Form S-4 to be filed by Newco in connection with the Merger; and

•the absence of any order, injunction, decree or other legal restraint preventing the completion of the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

Each party’s obligation to complete the Merger is also subject to certain additional customary conditions, including:

•subject to certain exceptions, the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the other party;

•performance in all material respects by the other party of its obligations under the Merger Agreement; and

•receipt by such party of an opinion from its counsel to the effect that such party’s merger with and into Newco will qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

These conditions to the closing of the Merger may not be fulfilled in a timely manner, or at all, and, accordingly, the Merger may not be completed. In addition, the parties can mutually decide to terminate the Merger Agreement at any time, before or after receipt of the requisite approvals by our shareholders or Pinnacle’s shareholders, or either party may elect to terminate the Merger Agreement in certain other circumstances.

As a condition to granting required regulatory approvals, governmental entities may impose conditions, limitations or costs, require divestitures or place restrictions on the conduct of the combined company after the closing of the Merger. Such conditions or changes and the process of obtaining regulatory approvals could, among other things, have the effect of delaying completion of the Merger or of imposing additional costs or limitations on the combined company following the Merger, any of which may have an adverse effect on us or the combined company following the Merger.

Either party may also be subject to lawsuits challenging the Merger, and adverse rulings in these lawsuits may delay or prevent the Merger from being completed or require either party to incur significant costs to defend or settle these lawsuits. Any

67

---

delay in completing the Merger could cause the combined company not to realize, or to be delayed in realizing, some or all of the benefits that we expect to achieve if the Merger is successfully completed within its expected time frame.

We expect to incur substantial expenses related to the Merger.

We have incurred and expect to incur a number of costs associated with the Merger and the integration of our business with Pinnacle’s business. These costs include financial advisory, legal, accounting, consulting and other advisory fees, severance/employee benefit‐related costs, public company filing fees and other regulatory fees and financial printing and other related costs. There are also a large number of processes, policies, procedures, operations, technologies and systems that may need to be integrated.

While we have assumed that a certain level of costs will be incurred, there are many factors beyond our control that could affect the total amount or the timing of the integration expenses. Moreover, many of the expenses that we will incur are, by their nature, difficult to estimate accurately. These expenses could, particularly in the near term, exceed the savings that we expect to achieve from the elimination of duplicative expenses and the realization of economies of scale. These integration expenses may result in charges against earnings as a result of the Merger or the integration of our business with Pinnacle’s business, and the amount and timing of such charges are uncertain at present.

We may fail to realize all of the anticipated benefits of the Merger, or those benefits may take longer to realize than expected due to factors that may be outside our control or Pinnacle’s control.

We may fail to realize the anticipated benefits of the proposed Merger, including, among other things, anticipated revenue and cost synergies, due to factors that may be outside either party’s control, including, but not limited to, changes in laws or regulations or in the interpretation of existing laws or regulations, whether caused by a change in government or otherwise, or general economic, political, legislative or regulatory conditions, and the outcome of any legal or regulatory proceedings that may be currently pending or later instituted against us, Pinnacle or the combined company.

Both parties have operated and, until the completion of the Merger, will continue to operate, independently. The success of the Merger, including anticipated benefits and cost savings, will depend, in part, on the successful integration of our operations with Pinnacle’s operations in a manner that results in various benefits and that does not materially disrupt existing client relationships or result in decreased revenues due to loss of clients. The process of integrating operations could result in a loss of key personnel or cause an interruption of, or loss of momentum in, the activities of one or more of the combined company’s businesses following the completion of the Merger. Inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures and policies could adversely affect the combined company following the completion of the Merger. The diversion of management’s attention and any delays or difficulties encountered in connection with the Merger and the integration of Pinnacle’s operations with our operations could have an adverse effect on the business, financial condition, operating results and prospects of the combined company.

If we experience difficulties in the integration process, including those listed above, we may fail to realize the anticipated benefits of the Merger in a timely manner, or at all.

Future results of the combined company may suffer if it does not effectively manage its expanded operations and increased size following the Merger.

Following the Merger, the size of the combined company will increase significantly beyond our current size. The combined company’s future success depends, in part, upon its ability to manage its expanded business and increased size, which will pose substantial challenges for management, including challenges related to the management and monitoring of new operations and associated increased costs and complexity. There can be no assurances that the combined company will be successful or that the combined company will realize the expected operating efficiencies, cost savings and other benefits currently anticipated from the Merger.

In addition, following the Merger, the combined company may be subject to increased scrutiny by, and/or additional regulatory requirements of, governmental authorities as a result of the Merger or the size, scope and complexity of the combined company’s business operations, which may have an adverse effect on its business, operations or stock price. We expect the combined company will be subject to heightened supervision under the Federal Reserve Board’s enhanced prudential standards for large banks as a result of the combined company having total assets in excess of $100 billion and therefore becoming a Category IV institution under the tailoring framework. The transition to heightened supervision and classification as a Category IV institution is a significant regulatory hurdle and involves additional liquidity risk management requirements, more onerous internal liquidity stress testing and liquidity buffer requirements, supervisory stress testing, the stress capital buffer, additional capital planning requirements, additional reporting to the Federal Reserve and more comprehensive resolution plan filings with the FDIC.

68

---

While the Merger is pending, we will be subject to business uncertainties and contractual restrictions that could adversely affect our business and operations.

Uncertainty about the effect of the Merger on employees, clients, suppliers and other persons with whom we or Pinnacle have a business relationship may have an adverse effect on our business, operations and stock price. Existing clients, suppliers and other business partners of ours and of Pinnacle could decide to no longer do business with us or with Pinnacle before the completion of the Merger or with the combined company after the Merger is completed, reducing its anticipated benefits. Both parties are also subject to certain restrictions on the conduct of our respective businesses while the Merger is pending. As a result, certain projects may be delayed or abandoned, and business decisions could be deferred. Employee retention may be challenging for us and Pinnacle before completion of the Merger, as certain employees may experience uncertainty about their future roles with the combined company following the Merger, and these retention challenges will require us to incur additional expenses in order to retain key employees. If key employees depart because of issues relating to the uncertainty and difficulty of integration or a desire not to remain with the combined company following the Merger, the benefits of the Merger could be materially diminished.
