Appendix

Non-GAAP Financial Measures In addition to financial measures presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), this presentation contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. The Company’s management utilizes non-GAAP measures as additional metrics to aid in, and enhance, its understanding of the Company’s financial results. The Company believes that these non-GAAP measures provide useful information by excluding certain material items that may not be indicative of our operating results. As a result, the Company believes that the non-GAAP measures that it has presented will aid in the evaluation of the operating performance of the business. Total capital and capital return, and capital generation are non-GAAP measures that include stock repurchases and dividends returned to stockholders with total capital. Management uses these measures to evaluate the Company's ability to generate capital to return to stockholders, reinvest in strategic initiatives, and evaluate its capacity to absorb losses. The Company also believes that these capital and absorption measures provide useful information to users of the Company’s financial statements in the evaluation of its ability to generate capital to return to stockholders, reinvest in strategic initiatives, and evaluate its capacity to absorb losses. Tangible equity, tangible book value per share, and the funded debt-to-tangible equity ratio are non-GAAP measures that adjust GAAP measures to exclude intangible assets. Management uses these equity measures to evaluate and manage the Company’s capital and leverage position. The Company also believes that these equity measures are commonly used in the financial services industry and provide useful information to users of the Company’s financial statements in the evaluation of its capital and leverage position. The Company believes that the aforementioned non-GAAP measures will aid users of its financial statements in the evaluation of its operating performance. This non-GAAP financial information should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, the Company’s non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP measures of other companies. The following tables provide reconciliations of GAAP measures to non-GAAP measures. 21
