Forward-Looking Statements

Forward-Looking Statements:

Certain of the statements made in this release are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. You can identify these forward-looking statements through our use of words such as "may," "will," "anticipate," "assume," "should," "indicate," "would," "believe," "contemplate," "expect," "estimate," "continue," "plan," "point to," "project," "could," "intend," "target" and other similar words and expressions of the future. Forward-looking statements include statements with respect to our beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, expectations, anticipations, assumptions, estimates, intentions, and future performance, and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, which may be beyond our control, and which may cause the actual results, performance, capital, ownership or achievements of the Bank to be materially different from future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements due to a variety of factors, including the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the scope and duration of the pandemic, actions taken by governmental authorities in response to the pandemic, worldwide economic conditions and fluctuations of interest rates, the successful completion and integration of acquisitions or the realization of the anticipated benefits of such acquisitions in the expected time-frames or at all, success in business retention and obtaining new business and other factors. All statements other than statements of historical fact are statements that could be forward-looking statements.

All forward-looking statements attributable to us are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary notice, including, without limitation, those risks and uncertainties described in our Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") reports and filings. Such reports are available upon request from the Bank, or from the SEC, including through the SEC's website at https://www.sec.gov. Except otherwise required by law, Butterfield assumes no obligation and does not undertake to review, update, revise or correct any of the forward-looking statements included herein, whether as a result of new information, future events or other developments. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements that speak only as of the date hereof.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

This presentation contains non-GAAP financial measures including "core" net income and other financial measures presented on a "core" basis. We believe such measures provide useful information to investors that is supplementary to our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows computed in accordance with GAAP; however, our non-GAAP financial measures have a number of limitations. As such, investors should not view these disclosures as a substitute for results determined in accordance with GAAP, and they are not necessarily comparable to non-GAAP financial measures that other companies use. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to corresponding GAAP financial measures are provided in the Appendix of this presentation.

Core Efficiency Ratio*

Core Non-Interest Expenses*

  • Core non-interest expenses* were down in the second quarter of 2020 compared to the prior quarter primarily due to:
    • elevated severance costs in Q1 2020;
    • decrease in consultant costs;
    • minimal travel and client entertainment; and
    • limited marketing activities.
  • Core cost / income ratio* of 66.7% was higher than 63.8% in the prior quarter due to revenue decreases (COVID-19 and interest rate related) outpacing tactical expense control measures

US Peer Median *

  • The Bank's balance sheet is currently positioned to benefit from both up and down interest rate scenarios
  • NII increases in a down 100 bps rate environment because negative rates would be charged on deposits, while fixed rate assets would continue to generate revenue
  • Increased prepayments in the Agency securities book from lower interest rates, resulted in lower weighted average life of AFS and HTM investments
  • The Bank now has $180 million in unrealized gains in AFS and HTM, which will continue to moderate securities book yield compression in future years

* Includes US banks identified by management as a peer group. Please see the Appendix for a list of these banks. Q1 2020 comparative data is used as Q2 2020 peer

information was not widely available at time of publication.

** The HTM portfolio is comprised of securities with negative convexity which typically exhibit higher prepayment speeds when assuming lower future rates.

CECL adoption impact:

The adoption of CECL is driving reserve build through lifetime losses,

The adoption of CECL resulted in a 'Day 1' increase of

past and current conditions as well as a reasonable and supportable

forecast

$7.8 million

The Bank employs a PD/LGD approach in calculating its expected

Q1 2020 and Q2 2020 reserve build of $5.2 million and

losses

$4.4 million respectively.

Historical PDs are adjusted using forecasted macro-economic

Consumer and commercial lending book experienced the

variables such as GDP growth and unemployment rates to reflect

largest increases

the forward-looking lifetime view

The Bank uses both internal data as well as external data sources

Appendix

Commentary on Factors Influencing COVID-19 Implications

The short- and medium/long-term implications of the pandemic on our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations will depend on factors such as, but not limited to the following:

  • The duration and scope of the pandemic and related economic fallout
  • The pace and magnitude of the economic recovery in the jurisdictions in which we operate
  • The continuation of a low interest rate environment, or further reductions in interest rates, over the medium or long term, which would adversely impact our net interest income and net interest margin, as well as increase our reliance on fee businesses
