Forward-looking statements are not guarantees, nor should they be relied upon as representing management’s views as of any subsequent date.

The quality and composition of our loan and investment securities portfolios and the quality and composition of our deposits;
Changes in general industry, political, and economic conditions, including elevated inflation, economic slowdown or recession, or other economic challenges; imposition of tariffs; changes in interest and reference rates, which could adversely affect our revenue and expenses, the value of assets and liabilities, and the availability and cost of capital and liquidity; and deterioration in economic conditions that may result in increased loan and lease losses;
Political developments, including transitions in administration and shifts in congressional control that result in significant changes in the size, scope, and effectiveness of government agencies and services;
The effects of newly enacted and proposed regulations affecting us and the banking industry, as well as changes and uncertainties in the interpretation, enforcement, and applicability of laws and fiscal, monetary, regulatory, trade, and tax policies;
Actions taken by governments, agencies, central banks, and similar organizations, including those that result in decreases in revenue, increases in regulatory bank fees, insurance assessments, and capital standards; and other regulatory requirements;
Judicial, regulatory and administrative inquiries, investigations, examinations or proceedings and the outcomes thereof that create uncertainty for, or are adverse to us or, the banking industry;
Changes in our credit ratings;
Our ability to innovate and otherwise address competitive pressures and other factors that may affect aspects of our business, such as pricing, relevance of, and demand for, our products and services, and our ability to recruit and retain talent;
The potential for both positive and disruptive impacts of technological advancements, such as digital currencies and commerce, blockchain, artificial intelligence, quantum and cloud computing, and other innovations affecting us and the banking industry;
Our ability to complete projects and initiatives and execute our strategic plans, manage our risks, control compensation and other expenses, and achieve our business objectives;
Our ability to develop and maintain technology, information security systems, and controls designed to guard against fraud, cybersecurity, and privacy risks and related incidents;
Our ability to provide adequate oversight of our suppliers to help us prevent or mitigate effects upon us and our customers of inadequate performance, systems failures, or cyber and other incidents by, or affecting, third parties upon whom we rely for the delivery of various products and services;
The effects of wars, international trade policies and disputes, geopolitical conflicts, and other local, national, or international disasters, crises, or conflicts that may occur in the future;
Natural disasters, pandemics, wildfires, catastrophic events, and other emergencies and incidents, and their impact on our and our customers’ operations, business, and communities, including the increasing difficulty in, and the expense of, obtaining property, auto, business, and other insurance products;
Governmental and social responses to environmental, social, and governance issues, including those with respect to climate change and diversity;
Securities and capital markets behavior, including volatility and changes in market liquidity and our ability to raise capital;
The possibility that our recorded goodwill could become impaired, which may have an adverse impact on our earnings and shareholders’ equity;
The impact of bank closures or adverse developments at other banks on general investor sentiment regarding the stability and liquidity of banks;
Adverse news and other expressions of negative public opinion whether directed at us, other banks, the banking industry, or otherwise that may adversely affect our reputation and that of the banking industry generally;
Protracted congressional negotiations regarding government funding and other issues, including those that add to the national debt, increase the possibility of government shutdowns, downgrades in United States (“U.S.”) credit ratings, or other economic disruptions; and
Other assumptions, risks, or uncertainties described in this annual report, including in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors, and other SEC filings.
