Use of non-GAAP financial measuresGAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
This presentation contains certain non-GAAP financial measures determined by methods
other than in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Such non-GAAP
financial measures include the following: pre-tax, pre-credit costs income; core deposits;
net interest margin excluding negative impact of non-performing assets; fundamental G&A
expense; the ratio of tangible common equity to tangible assets; and the ratio of pre-tax,
pre-credit costs income to risk-weighted assets. The most comparable GAAP measures to
these measures are pre-tax income (loss); total deposits; net interest margin; total noninterest
expense; and the ratio of total equity to total assets, respectively. Synovus’
management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to assess the performance of
Synovus’ core business and the strength of its capital position. Synovus believes that these
non-GAAP financial measures provide additional meaningful information about Synovus to
assist investors in evaluating Synovus’ operating results, financial strength and capital
position. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered as a substitute for
operating results determined in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to
other similarly titled measures at other companies. The computations of the non-GAAP
financial measures used in this presentation are set forth in the Appendix to this
presentation.
