Business Results – Q1 2018 • Banking pre-tax income up $7 million, or 22%, relative to Q1 2017 largely driven by bank non-covered HFI loan growth of 7% and strong NIM of 4.15% (taxable equivalent NIM of 4.16%). Bank efficiency ratio of 61.3% versus 64.4% in Q1 2017 Mortgage pre-tax loss of $3 million relative to $10 million pre-tax income in Q1 2017 primarily resulted from the impact of increased competition in the marketplace and tightening secondary market spreads Broker-Dealer pre-tax income of $4 million primarily resulted from decreased trading gains from derivative and trading portfolio activities and lower public finance issuances, which in part can be attributed to the “Tax Act” that was enacted during the fourth quarter 2017. Pre-tax income decline in the quarter also resulted from increased rate volatility that lowered revenues in our fixed income businesses Insurance had a combined ratio of 85.2%, which drove pre-tax income of $4.8 million compared to $1.8 million in Q1 2017. Lower storm frequency and severity during this quarter contributed to the improvement. The second quarter typically experiences the seasonally highest frequency of storms and losses • • • 4 Business Drivers for Q1 2018 Pre-Tax Income vs. Prior Year ($ millions) Q1 2017Q1 2018 $39$41 $32 ($12)($13) BankingMortgageBroker-DealerInsuranceCorporate/ OtherHilltop Holdings $32 $10$10 $4$2$5 ($3)

Appendix 15

Non-GAAP to GAAP Reconciliation and Management’s Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures Hilltop presents measures in this presentation that are not measures of financial performance recognized by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) including taxable equivalent net interest margin and pre-purchase accounting taxable equivalent net interest margin. These measures are important to investors interested in changes from period to period in net interest margin. For companies, such as Hilltop, business combinations can also result in purchase accounting adjustments (“PAA”). You should not view these disclosures as a substitute for results determined in accordance with GAAP, and these disclosures are not necessarily comparable to that of other companies that use non-GAAP measures. The following tables reconcile these non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measure, “net interest margin”. Note: (1) 2017 Annualized taxable equivalent adjustments are based on a 35% federal income tax rate, 2018 annualized taxable equivalent adjustment is based on a 21% federal income tax rate. 16 Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Pre-PAA Taxable Equivalent NIM (%)Q1 2017 Q1 2018 NIM Add: Taxable Equivalent Adjustment1 Non-GAAP Taxable Equivalent NIM Less: Purchase Accounting Adjustment Non-GAAP Pre-PAA Taxable Equivalent NIM 4.21 0.02 4.15 0.01 4.23 (0.60) 4.16 (0.51) 3.56 3.65 Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Pre-PAAQ1Q2Q3Q4Q1 Taxable Equivalent NIM (%)2017201720172017 2018 NIM Add: Taxable Equivalent Adjustment1 Non-GAAP Taxable Equivalent NIM Less: Purchase Accounting Adjustment Non-GAAP Pre-PAA Taxable Equivalent NIM 3.473.983.443.57 0.020.010.020.02 3.52 0.01 3.493.993.463.59 (0.49) (0.81) (0.37) (0.43) 3.53 (0.36) 3.003.183.093.16 3.17 •PlainsCapital Bank •Hilltop Consolidated

Non-GAAP to GAAP Reconciliation and Management’s Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures (Continued) Tangible Common Equity (“TCE”), is a non-GAAP financial measure. Tangible common equity is defined as our total stockholders’ equity, excluding preferred stock, reduced by goodwill and other intangible assets. This is a measure used by management, investors and analysts to assess use of equity. Tangible book value per share (“TBVPS”), is a non-GAAP financial measure. TBVPS represents the Firm’s tangible common equity at period-end divided by common shares outstanding at period-end. This is a measure used by management, investors and analysts to assess use of equity.
