Impact of Sandy Spring Acquisition on Strategic Growth and Capital Position

Acquisition of Sandy Spring Bank closed on April 1, 2025, earlier than expected, providing strategic benefits and a strong earnings potential.
Sale of $2 billion of commercial real estate loans from Sandy Spring exceeded initial pricing estimates, reducing risk and lowering CRE concentration.
The acquisition introduced merger accounting noise, but operating results post-merger are meeting expectations.
The integration is progressing smoothly with a focus on a fourth quarter core systems conversion, leveraging past acquisition experience.

Impact of Enterprise Acquisition on Capital and Earnings Dilution

The acquisition of Enterprise Bank added approximately $4.1 billion in loan balances and $4.4 billion in deposits.
Anticipated 8% to 9% dilution to tangible capital on day 1, slightly lower than initial expectations due to contracting interest rates.
Longer-term rates contracting has led to a reduction in expected dilution and earnings accretion impact.
The final guidance on dilution and earnings impact will depend on the finalization of purchase accounting adjustments and FASB guidance on CECL double count, expected later in the year.
