38 RECONCILIATION OF GAAP AND NON - GAAP Community Bank System's management uses the term "non - GAAP" financial measures in their analysis of the company's performance and operations. Management believes that these non - GAAP financial measures provide a greater understanding of ongoing operations and enhance comparability of results. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non - GAAP financial measures that may be presented by other companies. The types of non - GAAP financial measures used in this presentation include: • Tangible equity, tangible common equity, tangible assets and tangible book value are non - GAAP financial measures which Community Bank System's management uses to assess the quality of capital and believes that investors may find useful in their analysis, although these metrics are not necessarily comparable to similar non - GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Tangible equity is calculated by excluding the balance of goodwill and other intangible assets from the calculation of total equity and adding back the amount of the deferred tax liability related to tax deductible goodwill. Tangible common equity is calculated by excluding the balance of goodwill and other intangible assets from the calculation of stockholders’ equity and adding back the amount of the deferred tax liability related to tax deductible goodwill. Tangible assets is calculated by excluding the balance of goodwill and other intangible assets from the calculation of total assets and adding back the amount of the deferred tax liability related to tax deductible goodwill. Tangible book value per share is calculated by dividing tangible common equity by the number of shares outstanding at a point of time. • Operating earnings is a non - GAAP financial measure which Community Bank System believes investors may find useful in their analysis. Operating earnings is calculated by excluding the one - time deferred tax expense benefits of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act recorded in the fourth quarter of 2017, as well as acquisition - related expenses, net of tax effect, gain on sale of investments, net of tax effect, unrealized gain on equity securities, net of tax effect, and the loss on debt extinguishment, net of tax effect. • Operating cash flow adds back the amortization of intangibles, net of tax effect and subtracts purchased loan accretion, net of tax effect from Operating Earnings.

41 COVID - 19 PANDEMIC RESPONSE SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION
42 COVID - 19 VIRUS DEVELOPMENTS The World Health Organization declared COVID - 19 virus to be a global pandemic on March 11, 2020. T he rapid spread of the COVID - 19 virus in the United States invoked various Federal and State Authorities to make emergency declarations and issue executive orders to limit the spread of disease. Concerns about the spread of the disease and its anticipated negative impact on economic activity, severely disrupted both domestic and international financial markets. As the COVID - 19 events unfolded throughout the first quarter of 2020, the Company implemented various plans, strategies and protocols to protect its employees, maintain services for customers, assure the functional continuity of its operating systems, controls and processes, and mitigate financial risks posed by changing market conditions. Although there is a high degree of uncertainty around the magnitude and duration of the economic impact of the COVID - 19 pandemic, the Company’s management believes that its financial position, including high levels of capital and liquidity, will allow it to successfully endure the negative economic impacts of the crisis .
43 COMPANY RESPONSE TO COVID - 19 • Appointed an internal task force comprised of the Company’s management to address both operational and financial risks posed by COVID - 19 • Modified branch operations • Branch lobbies available, but on an appointment only basis • Primarily drive thru transactions • Increased emphasis on digital banking platforms • Implemented physical separation of critical operational workforce for Bank and non - Bank financial services subsidiaries • Expanded paid time off and health benefits for employees • Implemented work from home strategy • The majority of the Company’s non - branch and non - critical operational employees are working remotely • S uspended work related travel • Adopted self - quarantine procedures • Implemented enhanced cleaning protocols • Redeployed staff to critical customer service operations to expedite payment deferral requests and Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) lending effort • Assessing return to work protocols and reopening branch offices to the public
