Disclaimers This communication contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements reflect our current views with respect to, among other things, future events and our results of operations, financial condition and financial performance. These statements are often, but not always, made through the use of words or phrases such as “may,” “should,” “could,” “predict,” “potential,” “believe,” “will likely result,” “expect,” “continue,” “will,” “anticipate,” “seek,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “projection,” “would” and “outlook,” or the negative version of those words or other comparable words of a future or forward-looking nature. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, and are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about our industry, management’s beliefs and certain assumptions made by management, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and beyond our control. Accordingly, we caution you that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, assumptions and uncertainties that are difficult to predict. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable as of the date made, actual results may prove to be materially different from the results expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Such factors include, without limitation, the “Risk Factors” referenced in our Registration Statement on Form S-3 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 21, 2018, and our Registration Statement on Form S-4 filed with the SEC on July 20, 2018, other risks and uncertainties listed from time to time in our reports and documents filed with the SEC, including our Annual Reports on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and the following factors: business and economic conditions generally and in the financial services industry, nationally and within our current and future geographic market areas; economic, market, operational, liquidity, credit and interest rate risks associated with our business; deteriorating asset quality and higher loan charge-offs; the laws and regulations applicable to our business; our ability to achieve organic loan and deposit growth and the composition of such growth; increased competition in the financial services industry, nationally, regionally or locally; our ability to maintain our historical earnings trends; our ability to raise additional capital to implement our business plan; material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting; systems failures or interruptions involving our information technology and telecommunications systems or third-party servicers; the composition of our management team and our ability to attract and retain key personnel; the fiscal position of the U.S. federal government and the soundness of other financial institutions; the composition of our loan portfolio, including the identity of our borrowers and the concentration of loans in energy-related industries and in our specialized industries; the portion of our loan portfolio that is comprised of participations and shared national credits; the amount of nonperforming and classified assets we hold; the extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on us and our customers, counterparties, employees and third-party service providers, and the impacts to our business, financial position, results of operations, and prospects. Cadence can give no assurance that any goal or plan or expectation set forth in forward-looking statements can be achieved and readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements. The forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this communication, and Cadence does not intend, and assumes no obligation, to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events or circumstances, except as required by applicable law. Certain of the financial measures and ratios we present, including “efficiency ratio,” “adjusted efficiency ratio,” “adjusted noninterest expenses,” “adjusted operating revenue,” “tangible common equity ratio,” “tangible book value per share” and “return on average tangible common equity”, “adjusted return on average tangible common equity”, “adjusted return on average assets”, “adjusted diluted earnings per share”, “pre-tax, pre-provision net revenue” and "adjusted pre-tax pre-provision net revenue,“ are supplemental measures that are not required by, or are not presented in accordance with, U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). We refer to these financial measures and ratios as “non-GAAP financial measures.” We consider the use of select non-GAAP financial measures and ratios to be useful for financial and operational decision making and useful in evaluating period-to-period comparisons. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance by excluding certain expenditures or assets that we believe are not indicative of our primary business operating results or by presenting certain metrics on a fully taxable equivalent basis. We believe that management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our performance and when planning, forecasting, analyzing and comparing past, present and future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP and you should not rely on non-GAAP financial measures alone as measures of our performance. The non-GAAP financial measures we present may differ from non-GAAP financial measures used by our peers or other companies. We compensate for these limitations by providing the equivalent GAAP measures whenever we present the non-GAAP financial measures and by including a reconciliation of the impact of the components adjusted for in the non-GAAP financial measure so that both measures and the individual components may be considered when analyzing our performance. A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures is included in the Appendix.

Highlights Loan Portfolio Metrics $ in millions, unless otherwise indicated Diversified Loan Portfolio(1) (1) Amounts represent total loans. Under CECL as of 1/1/20, loan balances are stated at amortized cost, which is net of unearned income and are not directly comparable to prior periods. (2) Period-End Data.

Loan Breakdown and Historical Comparison *Note: As of 1/1/20, the Small Business Lending segment was reclassified between C&I and CRE reflecting alignment with CECL categorizations. The resulting CRE category breakdown was also changed, as of 1/1/20 and comparisons to the prior year are not directly comparable. Loans decreased $233 million or 2% linked quarter, driven by declines of $206 million in General C&I, $58 million in Energy loans and $55 million in Restaurant loans, as we continue to work to reduce select exposures. New loans and fundings on existing loans of ~$875 million in 3Q20 increased 56% from 2Q20 levels, excluding PPP loans, but remained ~30% lower than pre-COVID levels.
Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) Loans $ in millions, unless otherwise indicated PPP Loans(1) Cadence Bank is actively supporting business owners as their livelihoods and employees are impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. As an SBA preferred lender, Cadence Bank facilitated PPP loan applications as part of the CARES (Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security) Act. Approximately $1.1 billion in PPP loans to ~4,350 customers. Actively working with clients on the SBA PPP Loan Forgiveness Platform, which we currently expect the majority will be forgiven in early 2021. Processed the equivalent of 14 years of normal Cadence SBA volume in less than two months. Nearly 25% of the bank’s workforce involved in executing on PPP loan process at peak. Partnered with external technology vendor to enhance existing SBA loan application system. (1) General C&I PPP loans include Commercial Real Estate-related borrowers Note: Cadence PPP Loans By State statistics are as of May 21, 2020 and based on the State disclosed by the customer on the loan application.

Net charge-offs were $19.9 million, down from $32.6 million in the prior quarter and $31.3 million in the prior year quarter. The current quarter charge-offs included $14.7 million in Restaurant and $1.9 million in Energy. NPLs totaled $189.1 million or 1.40% of total loans compared to $224.4 million or 1.64%, respectively, in 2Q20. The ACL to NPL was 204% as of September 30, 2020 as compared to 165% as of June 30, 2020. Criticized loans increased by $74.5 million to $1.1 billion from $1.0 billion prior quarter, as net downgrades in General C&I, Hospitality and Energy credits, partially mitigated by payoffs and paydowns in General C&I and Restaurant loans. Credit metrics reflect the continued impact of COVID-19 on our borrowers, particularly in the hospitality, restaurant and energy sectors. Credit Quality $ in millions, unless otherwise indicated Nonperforming Assets(2) Highlights Credit Metrics(1) (1) Allowance for credit losses reflected funded loans. Provisions for loan losses do not include reserve for unfunded commitments. (2) NPA% represents total nonperforming assets (NPAs) to total loans and OREO and other NPAs. NPA increase of $35.5 million due to CECL implementation in the 1Q20
ACL and Criticized Rollforwards $ in millions, unless otherwise indicated (1) Allowance for credit losses reflected funded loans. Provisions for loan losses do not include reserve for unfunded commitments. (2) Includes the estimated impact of changes in macro-economic variables as well as qualitative and environmental overlays Loan provision was $33.0 million in 3Q20, down from $158.2 million in 2Q20 driven by increased reserves in the hospitality CRE sector. Allowance for Credit Losses of $385.4 million, or 3.11% of loans (excluding PPP) as of September 30, 2020. In 3Q20, the loan provision included $19.6 million related to portfolio changes and $14.8 million for economic forecasts and overlays, both down from 2Q20 as changes in credit metrics and the economic outlook were significantly less than the prior quarter. In 2Q20, the loan provision included $65.1 million related to portfolio changes and $93.1 for economic forecasts and overlays. The 3Q20 net increase in criticized loans of $74.2 million was meaningfully lower than the 2Q20 increase of $343.6 million. Key portfolio changes within criticized loans in 3Q20 included: Hospitality (CRE): $43.5 million in net increases reflecting continued COVID-driven stress. Energy: $39.3 million in net increases with migration largely in special mention. General C&I: $34.9 million in net increases driven by direct and indirect COVID impacts. Restaurants: Net reductions of $63.1 million as a result of upgrades, paydowns and charge-offs. ACL Rollforward 6/30/20 – 9/30/20 Criticized Loans Rollforward 6/30/20 – 9/30/20 Highlights
COVID-19 Related Loan Payment Deferrals $ in millions, unless otherwise indicated Loans with active payment deferrals decreased from $1.4 billion at 6/30/20 to $181 million at 10/16/20, down 87% and represented 1.5% of total loans (excluding PPP loans) at 9/30/20.

Core deposits(2) of $15.2 billion at September 30, 2020, increased $915 million or +6% over the prior year, at the same time we aggressively managed funding costs down.
Net Interest Income / Net Interest Margin Highlights (1) As part of CECL implementation, interest income recognized on PCD loans is now reported as loan interest where it was previously considered in ACI loan accretion. We have normalized PCD income and PCD accretion to CECL presentation for comparability and clarification. (2) Calculation removes average balance of PPP loans and income; as well as the average balance of cash associated with unused PPP funds. NIM, Yields & Costs 3Q20 net interest income was $154.0 million, down only $0.7M million from 2Q20. Interest income declined from 2Q20 related to declining income on core loans due to full impact of Q2 LIBOR declines, paydowns and lower accretion offset by lower funding costs, hedge income and increased investments income. Net interest margin, excluding the PPP program, was 3.64% in 3Q20, up 3bp from 3.61% for 2Q20. The quarterly increase was led by improvement from funding costs (+13bp) and hedge income (+6bp), offset by lower earning asset yields (-15bp) and lower accretion income (-2bp). The impact of lower yielding PPP loans and associated cash (-15bp) resulted in the 3Q20 NIM of 3.49%, down 2 bp from 3.51% for 2Q20. Collar gain recognition for 3Q20 of $18.4 million as compared to $16.7 million for 2Q20. Remaining unamortized gain of $223.3 million to be amortized over 3.5 years. Acquired loan accretion was $6.4 million for 3Q20 as compared to $7.6 million in 2Q20. Total cost of funds at 0.41% and total cost of deposits at 0.32%, representing declines of 15bp and 14bp, respectively, in 3Q20 due to continued active management of funding costs. Yield on loans excluding accretion and hedging was 3.75% in 3Q20, as compared to 3.99% for 2Q20. Excluding PPP loans, yield on these loans was 3.87%. Approximately 61% of the total loan portfolio was floating at September 30th. Net Interest Income/ NIM (TE) Rollforward(1)
Highlights Breakdown of Noninterest Income Total Noninterest Income Composition(1) Total Noninterest Income $ in millions, unless otherwise indicated Assets Under Management(2) (1) Figures may not total due to rounding. (2) Total Assets Under Management adjusted to exclude escrow, safekeeping & QSF. Total Noninterest Income / Operating Revenue 17.8 % 17.4 % 18.6 % 16.2 % 17.5 % Total noninterest income of $32.6 million or 17.5% of operating revenue compared to $30.0 million or 16.2% for the second quarter of 2020. The linked quarter results reflected increases in gains on sales of SBA and mortgage loans from increased production volume, increased account analysis charges and other service charges on deposits, as well as modest increases in trust services and investment advisory income.
Supplementary Information
Select COVID-Impacted Portfolios Energy criticized loans increased $39.3 million in 3Q20 as demand levels remain uncertain due to COVID. Energy prices have stabilized recently, as a majority of the shut-ins and curtailments have come back online. Restaurant criticized loans and nonaccruals decreased due to upgrades, net paydowns and charge-offs, while the ACL/Total Loans increased to 6.5%. Revenues in the industry have increased from prior quarter, however non-Quick Service Restaurants (“QSR”) continue to reflect greater stress than the QSR segment. Hospitality criticized loans and nonaccruals increased as the hotel industry continues to experience lower average occupancy rates as a result of COVID. The credit migration and anticipated extended period of stress drove the ACL/Total Loans meaningfully higher in the quarter to 14.6%. Highlights $ in millions, unless otherwise indicated
