FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS



This document contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Statements regarding potential
future share repurchases and future dividends as well as the potential effects
of the COVID-19 disruption and Russia's invasion of Ukraine on our business,
operations, financial performance and prospects, are forward-looking statements.
Also, any statement that does not describe historical or current facts is a
forward-looking statement. These statements often include the words "believes,"
"expects," "anticipates," "estimates," "intends," "plans," "goals," "targets,"
"initiatives," "potentially," "probably," "projects," "outlook," "guidance" or
similar expressions or future conditional verbs such as "may," "will," "should,"
"would," and "could."

Forward-looking statements are based upon the current beliefs and expectations
of management, and on information currently available to management. Our
statements speak as of the date hereof, and we do not assume any obligation to
update these statements or to update the reasons why actual results could differ
from those contained in such statements in light of new information or future
events. We caution you, therefore, against relying on any of these
forward-looking statements. They are neither statements of historical fact nor
guarantees or assurances of future performance. While there is no assurance that
any list of risks and uncertainties or risk factors is complete, important
factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the
forward-looking statements include the following, without limitation:

•Negative economic and political conditions that adversely affect the general
economy, housing prices, the job market, consumer confidence and spending habits
which may affect, among other things, the level of nonaccrual assets,
charge-offs and provision expense;

•The rate of growth in the economy and employment levels, as well as general business and economic conditions, and changes in the competitive environment;



•Our ability to implement our business strategy, including the cost savings and
efficiency components, and achieve our financial performance goals, including
through the integration of Investors and the HSBC branches;

•The COVID-19 disruption and its effects on the economic and business environments in which we operate;



•The impact of Russia's invasion of Ukraine and the imposition of sanctions on
Russia and other actions in response, including on economic and market
conditions, inflationary pressures and the interest rate environment, commodity
price and foreign exchange rate volatility, and heightened cybersecurity risks;

•Our ability to meet heightened supervisory requirements and expectations;

•Liabilities and business restrictions resulting from litigation and regulatory investigations;

•Our capital and liquidity requirements under regulatory capital standards and our ability to generate capital internally or raise capital on favorable terms;

•The effect of changes in interest rates on our net interest income, net interest margin and our mortgage originations, mortgage servicing rights and mortgages held for sale;



•Changes in interest rates and market liquidity, as well as the magnitude of
such changes, which may reduce interest margins, impact funding sources and
affect the ability to originate and distribute financial products in the primary
and secondary markets;

•The effect of changes in the level of checking or savings account deposits on our funding costs and net interest margin;

•Financial services reform and other current, pending or future legislation or regulation that could have a negative effect on our revenue and businesses;

•A failure in or breach of our operational or security systems or infrastructure, or those of our third party vendors or other service providers, including as a result of cyber-attacks;

•Greater than expected costs or other difficulties related to the integration of our business and that of Investors and the relevant HSBC branches;

Citizens Financial Group, Inc. | 7
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

•The inability to retain existing Investors or HSBC clients and employees following the closing of the Investors acquisition and HSBC transaction; and

•Management's ability to identify and manage these and other risks.



In addition to the above factors, we also caution that the actual amounts and
timing of any future common stock dividends or share repurchases will be subject
to various factors, including our capital position, financial performance,
risk-weighted assets, capital impacts of strategic initiatives, market
conditions, receipt of required regulatory approvals and other regulatory and
accounting considerations, as well as any other factors that our Board of
Directors deems relevant in making such a determination. Therefore, there can be
no assurance that we will repurchase shares from or pay any dividends to holders
of our common stock, or as to the amount of any such repurchases or dividends.
Further, statements about the effects of the pandemic and Russia's invasion of
Ukraine on our business, operations, financial performance and prospects may
constitute forward-looking statements and are subject to the risk that the
actual impacts may differ, possibly materially, from what is reflected in those
forward-looking statements due to factors and future developments that are
uncertain, unpredictable and in many cases beyond our control, including the
scope and duration of the pandemic and Russia's invasion of Ukraine, actions
taken by governmental authorities in response to the pandemic and Russia's
invasion of Ukraine, and the direct and indirect impact of the pandemic and
Russia's invasion of Ukraine on our customers, third parties and us.

More information about factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those described in the forward-looking statements can be found
in the "Risk Factors" section in Part I, Item 1A of our 2021 Form 10-K as well
as Part II, Item 1A of our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2022.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures



This document contains non-GAAP financial measures denoted as "Underlying"
results. Underlying results for any given reporting period exclude certain items
that may occur in that period which management does not consider indicative of
our on-going financial performance. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures
provide useful information to investors because they are used by management to
evaluate our operating performance and make day-to-day operating decisions. In
addition, we believe our Underlying results in any given reporting period
reflect our on-going financial performance, increase comparability of
period-to-period results, and are useful to consider in addition to our GAAP
financial results.

Other companies may use similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures that are
calculated differently from the way we calculate such measures. Accordingly, our
non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by
such companies. We caution investors not to place undue reliance on such
non-GAAP financial measures, but to consider them with the most directly
comparable GAAP measures. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as
analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute
for our results reported under GAAP.

Non-GAAP measures are denoted throughout our MD&A by the use of the term
Underlying. Where there is a reference to these metrics in that paragraph, all
measures that follow are on the same basis when applicable. For more information
on the computation of non-GAAP financial measures, see "-Non-GAAP Financial
Measures and Reconciliations."

(3) Includes the initial provision for credit losses of $145 million and
$169 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively,
tied to the Investors acquisition and the HSBC transaction. As required by
purchase accounting, a fair value mark for performing loans including both
credit and interest rate components is recorded in addition to the provision for
credit losses expense, thus the credit exposure has been "double counted".

•Net income available to common stockholders decreased $284 million to $332

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Interest Income



Net interest income is our largest source of revenue and is the difference
between the interest earned on interest-earning assets (generally loans, leases
and investment securities) and the interest expense incurred in connection with
interest-bearing liabilities (generally deposits and borrowed funds). The level
of net interest income is primarily a function of the difference between the
effective yield on our average interest-earning assets and the effective cost of
our interest-bearing liabilities. These factors are influenced by the pricing
and mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities which, in
turn, are impacted by external factors such as local economic conditions,
competition for loans and deposits, the monetary policy of the FRB and market
interest rates. For further discussion, refer to "-Market Risk - Non-Trading
Risk," and "-Risk Governance" as described in our 2021 Form 10-K.

(1) Net interest income and net interest margin is presented on a FTE basis using the federal statutory tax rate of 21%. The FTE impact is predominantly attributable to commercial and industrial loans for the periods presented.



Net interest income increased $381 million, or 34%, and increased $411 million,
or 18%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, compared
to the same periods in 2021, reflecting growth of 19% and 11%, respectively, in
interest-earning assets and a higher net interest margin.

Net interest margin on a FTE basis increased 32 basis points to 3.04%, and
increased 17 basis points to 2.91%, for the three and six months ended June 30,
2022, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2021, reflecting higher
earning-asset yields given higher market interest rates, the impact of the HSBC
transaction and Investors acquisition, and the deployment of cash into loan
growth, partially offset by increased funding costs. Average interest-earning
asset yields increased 36 basis points to 3.26%, and increased 15 basis points
to 3.09%, while average interest-bearing liability costs increased 5 basis
points to 0.36%, and decreased 4 basis points to 0.30%, respectively, compared
to the same periods.

Average interest-earning assets increased $32.3 billion, or 19%, and increased $18.6 billion, or 11%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2021. An increase

in loans, primarily reflecting the impact of the HSBC transaction and Investors
acquisition, and investments was partially offset by a decrease in cash held in
interest-bearing deposits from the partial deployment of elevated liquidity.

Average deposits increased $26.0 billion, or 17%, and increased $17.3 billion,
or 12%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, compared
to the same periods in 2021, primarily attributable to the HSBC transaction and
Investors acquisition. Average total borrowed funds increased $6.7 billion and
increased $2.2 billion, respectively, compared to the same periods, given an
increase in long-term and short-term FHLB advances and subordinated debt,
partially offset by a decrease in senior debt.

(1) Includes bank-owned life insurance income and other income for all periods presented.



Noninterest income increased $9 million, or 2%, and decreased $35 million, or
3%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, compared to
the same periods in 2021, highlighted by the following significant changes.

•The changes in capital markets fees reflect lower bond underwriting fees and higher merger and acquisition advisory and loan syndication fees.

•Service charges and fees increased driven by the Investors acquisition and HSBC transaction.

•Mortgage banking fees declined given lower gain-on-sale margins and production volumes.

•Card fees increased driven by higher debit and credit card volumes.

•Trust and investment services fees increased driven by higher annuity and assets under management fees.



•Foreign exchange and derivative products revenue increased reflecting growth in
client hedging activity across foreign exchange, interest rate and commodity
products.

•The decrease in other income was driven by $31 million of mark-to-market losses
on loans acquired from Investors classified as LHFS, partially offset by higher
bank-owned life insurance income.

Noninterest expense increased $314 million, or 32%, and increased $402 million,
or 20%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, compared
to the same periods in 2021. The increases in three and six month expense were
driven primarily by $104 million and $141 million, respectively, of
integration-related costs, higher salaries and employee benefits as well as
other operating expense associated with FDIC insurance, travel and advertising
costs, partially offset by the benefit of efficiency initiatives.

Provision for Credit Losses



The provision for credit losses is the result of a detailed analysis performed
to estimate our ACL. The total provision for credit losses includes the
provision for loan and lease losses and the provision for unfunded commitments.
Refer to "-Analysis of Financial Condition - Allowance for Credit Losses and
Nonaccrual Loans and Leases" for more information.

Credit provision expense of $216 million and $219 million for the three and six
months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, compared to a credit provision benefit
of $213 million and $353 million for the same periods in 2021. The credit
provision includes the "double count" of the non-PCD loan CECL provision expense
of $145 million and $169 million for the three and six months ended June 30,
2022, respectively, tied to the Investors acquisition and the HSBC transaction.
The increased provision expense reflects loan growth, including the Investors
acquisition and a slight deterioration in the macroeconomic outlook, partially
offset by strong credit performance across retail and commercial.

Income Tax Expense



Income tax expense of $114 million and $230 million decreased $69 million and
$123 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively,
compared to the same periods in 2021, driven by decreased taxable income. The
effective income tax rate of 23.8% and 22.7% for the same periods increased from
22.0% and 21.9%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2021, primarily
driven by higher state taxes and nondeductible expenses related to recent
acquisitions, partially offset by the increased benefit of tax-advantaged
investments.

Business Operating Segments



We have two business operating segments: Consumer Banking and Commercial
Banking. Segment results are derived by specifically attributing managed assets,
liabilities, capital and related revenues, provision for credit losses, which at
the segment level is equal to net charge-offs, and other expenses. The residual
difference between the consolidated provision for credit losses and the business
operating segments' net charge-offs is reflected in Other.

Non-segment operations are classified as Other and include assets, liabilities,
capital, revenues, provision for credit losses, expenses and income tax expense
not attributed to our Consumer or Commercial Banking segments as well as
treasury and community development. In addition, for impairment testing
purposes, we allocate all goodwill to our Consumer Banking and Commercial
Banking reporting units.

There have been no significant changes in our methodologies used to allocate
items to our business operating segments as described in "-Results of Operations
- Business Operating Segments" in our 2021 Form 10-K other than the change
relative to our FTP methodology. See Note 18 for additional information.

Net interest income increased $98 million, or 11%, and increased $92 million, or
5%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, compared to
the same periods in 2021, driven by higher net interest margin and growth in
interest-earning assets, including the impact of the HSBC transaction and
Investors acquisition. This increase was partially offset by a reduction in PPP
loans. Average loans increased $11.9 billion and increased $7.5 billion for the
same periods, reflecting the impact of the Investors acquisition and HSBC
transaction, partially offset by a decline in PPP loans and planned runoff of
personal unsecured installment loans. Deposits increased $17.5 billion, or 17%,
and increased $12.5 billion, or 13%, for the same periods, including the impact
of the HSBC transaction and Investors acquisition.

Noninterest income decreased $3 million, or 1%, and decreased $97 million, or
15%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, compared to
the same periods in 2021, driven by lower mortgage banking fees reflecting lower
gain-on-sale margins and production volumes, and lower service charges and fees.
This decrease was partially offset by higher trust and investment services fees
reflecting higher annuity and management fees, and higher card fees driven by
debit and credit card volumes.

Noninterest expense increased $130 million, or 17%, and increased $164 million,
or 11%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, compared
to the same periods in 2021, reflecting higher salaries and employee benefits
and other operating expense associated with increased travel and advertising
costs, partially offset by the benefit of efficiency initiatives.

Net charge-offs decreased $6 million, or 13%, and decreased $16 million, or 15%,
for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, compared to the
same periods in 2021, as consumers continued to maintain a savings cushion, the
economy approached full employment and residential mortgage and auto loan
collateral values remained elevated.

Commercial Banking



Net interest income increased $115 million, or 27%, and increased $110 million,
or 13%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, compared
to the same periods in 2021, driven by higher net interest margin and growth in
interest-earning assets, including the impact of the Investors acquisition.

Noninterest income increased $43 million, or 24%, and increased $86 million, or
25%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, compared to
the same periods in 2021, driven by higher foreign exchange and derivative
products revenue, reflecting increased client activity across foreign exchange,
interest rate and commodity products, partially offset by lower capital markets
fees driven by lower bond underwriting fees.

Noninterest expense increased $82 million, or 36%, and increased $127 million,
or 28%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, compared
to the same periods in 2021, reflecting higher salaries and employee benefits
and other operating expense associated with increased travel and advertising
costs, partially offset by the benefit of efficiency initiatives.

Net charge-offs decreased $24 million, or 71%, and decreased $113 million, or
84%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, compared to
the same periods in 2021, as credit performance remained strong.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Our securities portfolio is managed to maintain prudent levels of liquidity,
credit quality, and market risk while achieving returns that align with our
overall portfolio management strategy. The portfolio primarily includes high
quality, highly liquid investments reflecting our ongoing commitment to maintain
strong contingent liquidity levels and pledging capacity. As of June 30, 2022,
U.S. government-guaranteed notes and GSE-issued mortgage-backed securities
represent 93% of the fair value of our debt securities portfolio holdings.
Holdings backed by mortgages dominate our portfolio and facilitate our ability
to pledge those securities to the FHLB for collateral purposes. For further
discussion of the liquidity coverage ratios, see "Regulation and Supervision -
Liquidity Requirements" in our 2021 Form 10-K.

The fair value of the debt securities portfolio increased $6.0 billion from
December 31, 2021, driven in large part by $3.8 billion from the Investors
acquisition as well as net securities purchases. This increase was partially
offset by the impact of higher interest rates driving a $2.8 billion increase in
unrealized losses.

The amortized cost basis of the HTM portfolio increased $7.3 billion due to the
transfer of $7.8 billion from the AFS portfolio during the second quarter of
2022, offset in part by paydowns. The ratio of HTM securities to total
securities increased to approximately 27% as of June 30, 2022.

As of June 30, 2022, the portfolio's average effective duration was 5.7 years
compared with 4.3 years as of December 31, 2021, as higher long-term rates drove
a decrease in both actual and projected securities prepayment speeds. We manage
our securities portfolio duration and convexity risk through asset selection and
securities structure, and maintain duration levels within our risk appetite in
the context of the broader interest rate risk framework and limits.

Retail Loan Asset Quality



For retail loans, we utilize credit scores provided by FICO and the loan's
payment and delinquency status to monitor credit quality. Management believes
FICO credit scores are the strongest indicator of potential credit losses over
the contractual life of the loan. These scores represent current and historical
national industry-wide consumer level credit performance data, which management
considers to predict a borrower's future payment performance. The largest
portion of the retail portfolio is represented by borrowers located in the New
England, Mid-Atlantic and Midwest regions. However, we do lend selectively in
areas outside the footprint, primarily in automobile finance and education
lending.

Troubled Debt Restructurings



In the first quarter of 2020, the CARES Act and interagency guidance exempted
from TDR classification COVID-19-related modified retail and commercial loans
that met certain eligibility criteria. We generally do not consider modified
loans that met eligibility criteria under the CARES Act to be TDRs. On December
31, 2021, relief provisions granted under the CARES Act expired, including the
TDR classification exemption.

For additional information regarding TDRs, see Note 6 in our 2021 Form 10-K.

The increase in total deposits as of June 30, 2022 compared to December 31, 2021
is driven by $25.8 billion of period-end balances from the Investors acquisition
and the HSBC transaction.

Borrowed Funds

Total borrowed funds of $18.2 billion as of June 30, 2022 increased $11.2
billion from December 31, 2021, driven by an increase in FHLB borrowings. The
FHLB borrowings increased due to the advances acquired from Investors and the
funding of loan and security growth. For more information regarding our borrowed
funds, see "-Liquidity" and Note 9.

CAPITAL AND REGULATORY MATTERS



As a bank holding company and a financial holding company, we are subject to
regulation and supervision by the FRB. Our banking subsidiary, CBNA, is a
national banking association primarily regulated by the OCC. Our regulation and
supervision continues to evolve as the legal and regulatory frameworks governing
our operations continue to change. For more information, see "Regulation and
Supervision" in our 2021 Form 10-K.

Capital Adequacy Process



Our assessment of capital adequacy begins with our Board-approved risk appetite
and risk management framework. This framework provides for the identification,
measurement and management of material risks. There have been no significant
changes to our capital adequacy risk appetite and risk management framework as
described in "-Capital and Regulatory Matters" in our 2021 Form 10-K.

Under the FRB's Tailoring Rules, Category IV firms, such as us, are subject to
biennial supervisory stress testing and are exempt from company-run stress
testing and related disclosure requirements. The FRB supervises Category IV
firms on an ongoing basis, including evaluation of the capital adequacy and
capital planning processes during off-cycle years. Annually, the FRB requires us
to submit a capital plan approved by our Board of Directors or one of its
committees. Our annual capital plan is due each year in April. We submitted our
2022 Capital Plan to the FRB on April 4, 2022. For more information, see the
"Tailoring of Prudential Requirements" section in Item 1 of our 2021 Form 10-K.

                                             Citizens Financial Group, Inc. | 23
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Under the stress capital buffer ("SCB") framework, the FRB will not object to capital plans on quantitative grounds and each firm is required to maintain capital ratios above the sum of its minimum and SCB requirements to avoid restrictions on capital distributions and discretionary bonus payments.



For Category IV firms, like us, the SCB will be re-calibrated with each biennial
supervisory stress test and updated annually to reflect our planned common stock
dividends. Our SCB requirement through September 30, 2022, is 3.4%. On June 23,
2022, the FRB notified us that based on the results of the 2022 CCAR supervisory
stress tests, our preliminary SCB effective October 1, 2022 through September
30, 2023, will remain at 3.4%, with the FRB providing us with a final SCB by
August 31, 2022. To incorporate the effects of the Investors acquisition on our
capital requirements, the FRB will require that we participate in the 2023 CCAR
supervisory stress tests.

Regulations relating to capital planning, regulatory reporting, stress testing
and capital buffer requirements applicable to firms like us are presently
subject to rule-making and potential further guidance and interpretation by the
applicable federal regulators. We will continue to evaluate the impact of these
and any other prudential regulatory changes, including their potential resultant
changes in our regulatory and compliance costs and expenses.

For more information, see the "Regulation and Supervision" and "-Capital and Regulatory Matters" sections in our 2021 Form 10-K.

Regulatory Capital Ratios and Capital Composition



Under the current U.S. Basel III capital framework, we and our banking
subsidiary, CBNA, must meet the following specific minimum requirements: CET1
capital ratio of 4.5%, tier 1 capital ratio of 6.0%, total capital ratio of 8.0%
and tier 1 leverage ratio of 4.0%. As a bank holding company, our SCB of 3.4% is
imposed on top of the three minimum risk-based capital ratios listed above and a
CCB of 2.5% is imposed on top of the three minimum risk-based capital ratios
listed above for our banking subsidiary.

Under the U.S. Basel III rules, the CET1 deduction threshold for MSRs, certain
deferred tax assets and investments in the capital of unconsolidated financial
institutions is 25%. As of June 30, 2022, we did not meet the threshold for
these additional capital deductions. MSRs or certain deferred tax assets not
deducted from CET1 capital are assigned a 250% risk weight and investments in
the capital of unconsolidated financial institutions not deducted from CET1
capital are assigned an exposure category risk weight.

In reaction to the COVID-19 pandemic, the FRB and the other federal banking
regulators adopted a final rule relative to regulatory capital treatment of ACL
under CECL. This rule allows electing banking organizations to delay the
estimated impact of CECL on regulatory capital for a two-year period ending
December 31, 2021, followed by a three-year transition period ending December
31, 2024. The three-year transition period will phase-in the aggregate amount of
capital benefit provided during the initial two-year delay. On December 31,
2021, the aggregate amount of capital benefit was $384 million. The reduction in
the capital benefit in 2022 is $96 million, or 5 basis points.

For additional discussion of the U.S. Basel III capital framework and its
related application, see "Regulation and Supervision" in our 2021 Form 10-K. The
table below presents our actual regulatory capital ratios under the U.S. Basel
III Standardized rules:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

At June 30, 2022, our CET1 capital, tier 1 capital and total capital ratios were
9.6%, 10.6% and 12.3%, respectively, as compared with 9.9%, 11.1% and 12.7%,
respectively, as of December 31, 2021. The CET1 and tier 1 capital ratios
decreased largely driven by $28.9 billion of RWA growth, higher estimated
goodwill and intangibles related to the Investors acquisition and the HSBC
transaction, dividends as described in "-Capital Transactions" below and a
decrease in the modified CECL transition amount as a result of entering the CECL
three-year transition period, partially offset by the common stock issued in
connection with the Investors acquisition and net income for the six months
ended June 30, 2022. The total capital ratio decreased due to the changes in the
CET1 capital ratio described above, partially offset by increases in
subordinated debt as described in "-Capital Transactions" below and higher AACL
related to the Investors acquisition and a reduction in the modified AACL
transition amount as a result of entering the CECL three-year transition period.
At June 30, 2022, our CET1 capital, tier 1 capital and total capital ratios were
approximately 170 basis points, 120 basis points and 90 basis points,
respectively, above their regulatory minimums plus our SCB. All ratios remained
well above the U.S. Basel III minimums.

Both the Company and CBNA are subject to the standardized approach for
determining RWA. At June 30, 2022, RWA totaled $187.7 billion, up $28.9 billion
from December 31, 2021, largely driven by the Investors acquisition and includes
higher CRE, commercial and residential mortgage loans, home equity lines, MSRs,
CRE commitments and loans held for sale.

As of June 30, 2022, the tier 1 leverage ratio was 9.3%, down from 9.7% at December 31, 2021, driven by an increase in quarterly adjusted average assets of $33.9 billion, partially offset by higher tier 1 capital.
