PNC FINANCIAL SERVICES GROUP, INC.

INTERNAL CONTROLS AND DISCLOSURE CONTROLSAND PROCEDURES

As of June 30, 2026, we performed an evaluation under the supervision of and with the participation of our management, including the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures and of changes in our internal control over financial reporting.

Based on that evaluation, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) were effective as of June 30, 2026, and that there has been no change in PNC’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the second quarter of 2026 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

As permitted by SEC guidance that an assessment of internal controls over financial reporting of a recently acquired business may be

excluded from management’s evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures for up to a year from the date of acquisition, we have

excluded FirstBank from management’s reporting on internal control over financial reporting for the quarter ended June 30, 2026.

We evaluated the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting through the integration of FirstBank with that of PNC and PNC Bank and made changes to our internal control framework, as necessary. As of close on January 5, 2026, and prior to purchase accounting adjustments, FirstBank had $26.4 billion of assets, $16.0 billion of loans and $23.1 billion of deposits.
