Management's discussion and analysis ("MD&A") of earnings and related financial
data are presented to assist in understanding the financial condition and
results of operations of First Citizens BancShares, Inc. and its subsidiaries
("BancShares"). This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with
the unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes presented
within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q along with our financial statements
and related MD&A of financial condition and results of operations included in
our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 ("2020
Annual Report"). Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Although certain amounts for prior years have been reclassified to conform to
statement presentations for 2021, the reclassifications had no effect on
shareholders' equity or net income as previously reported. Unless otherwise
noted, the terms "we," "us" and "BancShares" refer to the consolidated financial
position and consolidated results of operations for BancShares.
EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW
BancShares conducts its banking operations through its wholly-owned subsidiary
First-Citizens Bank & Trust Company ("FCB"), a state-chartered bank organized
under the laws of the state of North Carolina.
BancShares' earnings and cash flows are primarily derived from our commercial
and retail banking activities. We gather deposits from retail and commercial
customers and also secure funding through various non-deposit sources. We invest
the liquidity generated from these funding sources in interest-earning assets,
including loans and leases, investment securities and overnight investments. We
also invest in bank premises, hardware, software, furniture and equipment used
to conduct our commercial and retail banking business. We provide treasury
services products, cardholder and merchant services, wealth management services
and various other products and services typically offered by commercial banks.
The fees and service charges generated from these products and services are
primary sources of noninterest income which is an essential component of our
total revenue.
We are focused on expanding our position in legacy and target markets through
organic growth and strategic acquisitions. We believe our franchise is
positioned for continued growth as a result of our client centric banking
principles, disciplined lending standards, and our people.
Refer to our 2020 Annual Report for further discussion of our strategy.
RECENT ECONOMIC AND INDUSTRY DEVELOPMENTS
During the first quarter of 2020, a novel strain of coronavirus ("COVID-19")
spread throughout the world, causing significant disruptions to the domestic and
global economies. In response to the outbreak, governments imposed restrictions
resulting in business shutdowns, regional quarantines, disruptions of supply
chains, changes in consumer behavior and overall economic instability. Although
vaccines for COVID-19 have been made available to the general public in the
United States and many places around the world, vaccination rates vary and
effectiveness may decrease over time. We cannot predict how widely utilized the
vaccines and boosters will be or whether and for how long they will be effective
in preventing the spread of COVID-19 (including its variants).

Although we cannot predict when or if normal economic activity and business
operations will resume, we observed general declines in the level of economic
uncertainty and stabilization of macroeconomic forecasts during the first three
quarters of 2021. The US experienced an uptick in the number of new cases during
the third quarter of 2021. We are unable to predict whether these trends will
continue and how this will affect the overall economy at the current time.
However, we remain vigilant in our review and monitoring efforts around the
duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic (including any of its variants)
and its effects on the overall economy and our financial results.

During the third quarter of 2021, the Federal Reserve's Federal Open Market
Committee ("FOMC") maintained the federal funds rate at a target range of 0.00%
to 0.25%. The FOMC acknowledged the economy's accelerating recovery from the
COVID-19 pandemic, but maintained that the recovery is incomplete and economic
risks remain. The FOMC expects to maintain this target range, but rate hikes are
expected in late 2022 or early 2023. Further, the committee suggested that they
will begin tapering asset purchases, potentially as early as the fourth quarter
of 2021 if economic progress continues as expected.
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Small Business Administration Paycheck
Protection Program ("SBA-PPP") was established through the Coronavirus Aid
Relief and Economic Security Act (the "CARES Act") and the Consolidated
Appropriations Act 2021 to direct aid via loans to small businesses impacted by
the COVID-19 pandemic.
We completed the first round of SBA-PPP funding in the second half 2020 and the
second round of funding during the second quarter of 2021. As of September 30,
2021, there were $1.1 billion SBA-PPP loans outstanding with remaining net
deferred fees of $39.4 million.
With respect to the first round of SBA-PPP, we began accepting and processing
applications for forgiveness during the third quarter of 2020. As of September
30, 2021, we have received approximately 98% of forgiveness decisions from the
SBA to date, representing over $3.1 billion in forgiveness payments.

With respect to the second round of SBA-PPP, we began accepting and processing
applications for forgiveness during the third quarter of 2021. As of September
30, 2021, we have received approximately 14% of forgiveness decisions from the
SBA, representing over $175 million in forgiveness payments.

Through September 30, 2021, over 99% of all COVID-19-related loan extensions
have begun repayment. Delinquency trends among loans entering repayment are in
line with the remainder of the portfolio, and we have not seen significant
declines in overall credit quality.

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS IN 2021
On October 15, 2020, BancShares and CIT Group Inc., a Delaware corporation
("CIT"), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement")
by and among BancShares, FCB, FC Merger Subsidiary IX, Inc., a direct, wholly
owned subsidiary of FCB ("Merger Sub"), and CIT, the parent company of CIT Bank,
N.A., a national banking association ("CIT Bank"). Pursuant to the terms and
subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will
merge with and into CIT, with CIT as the surviving entity (the "First-Step
Merger"), and as soon as reasonably practicable following the effective time of
the First-Step Merger, CIT will merge with and into FCB, with FCB as the
surviving entity (together with the First-Step Merger, the "Mergers"). The
Merger Agreement further provides that immediately following the consummation of
the Mergers, CIT Bank will merge with and into FCB, with FCB as the surviving
bank (together with the Mergers, the "Transaction").
The Merger Agreement was unanimously approved by the Board of Directors of each
of BancShares and CIT. The Transaction has been approved by the shareholders of
both companies and has received regulatory approval from the North Carolina
Commissioner of Banks and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC").
On September 30, 2021, the parties entered into an amendment to the merger
agreement pursuant to which the parties mutually agreed to extend until March 1,
2022 the date after which either party may elect to terminate the merger
agreement if the merger has not yet been completed. Completion of the proposed
merger remains subject to approval from the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System and both parties are committed to continuing to seek such
approval. The parties have responded to all questions issued by the Staff of the
Federal Reserve Board, and the Staff has informed us that they do not have
further questions at this time. The parties have been informed that the
application is presently at the Governor level, but the Board of Governors has
not provided a time frame for its decision on the application. Closing is
expected to occur as soon as practicable following receipt of such approval and
the satisfaction or waiver of other customary closing conditions.
Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement,
at the effective time of the First-Step Merger (the "Effective Time"), each
share of CIT common stock, par value $0.01 per share, issued and outstanding
immediately prior to the Effective Time ("CIT Common Stock"), except for certain
shares of CIT Common Stock owned by CIT or BancShares, will be converted into
the right to receive 0.06200 shares of BancShares Class A common stock, par
value $1.00 per share. Holders of CIT Common Stock will receive cash in lieu of
fractional shares.
In addition, at the Effective Time, each share of Fixed-to-Floating Rate
Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A, par value $0.01 per share,
of CIT and 5.625% Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series B, par value
$0.01 per share, of CIT issued and outstanding will automatically be converted
into the right to receive one share of a newly created series of preferred
stock, Series B, of BancShares and one share of a newly created series of
preferred stock, Series C, of BancShares, respectively.
                                       36

  Table of Contents
The Merger Agreement requires that, effective as of the Effective Time, the
Boards of Directors of the combined company and the combined bank will consist
of 14 directors, (i) 11 of whom will be members of the current Board of
Directors of BancShares, and (ii) three of whom will be selected from among the
current Board of Directors of CIT and will include as one of those three Ellen
R. Alemany, Chairwoman and Chief Executive Officer of CIT. We intend to appoint
Michael A. Carpenter and Vice Admiral John R. Ryan, USN (Ret.), as the two other
members from CIT's current Board of Directors who will join the Boards of
Directors of the combined company and the combined bank.

BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
CIT Group Inc.
On October 15, 2020, BancShares and CIT, entered into the Merger Agreement by
and among BancShares, FCB, the Merger Sub, and CIT, the parent company of CIT
Bank. Pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the
Merger Agreement, Merger Sub and CIT will ultimately merge with and into FCB,
with FCB as the surviving entity. The Merger Agreement further provides that
immediately following the consummation of the Mergers, CIT Bank will merge with
and into FCB, with FCB as the surviving bank.
The Merger Agreement was unanimously approved by the Board of Directors of each
of BancShares and CIT. The transaction has been approved by the shareholders of
both companies and has received regulatory approval from the North Carolina
Commissioner of Banks and the FDIC.
On September 30, 2021, the parties entered into an amendment to the merger
agreement pursuant to which the parties mutually agreed to extend until March 1,
2022 the date after which either party may elect to terminate the merger
agreement if the merger has not yet been completed. Completion of the proposed
merger remains subject to approval from the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System and both parties are committed to continuing to seek such
approval. The parties have responded to all questions issued by the Staff of the
Federal Reserve Board, and the Staff has informed us that they do not have
further questions at this time. The parties have been informed that the
application is presently at the Governor level, but the Board of Governors has
not provided a time frame for its decision on the application. Closing is
expected to occur as soon as practicable following receipt of such approval and
the satisfaction or waiver of other customary closing conditions.

Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Assisted Transactions
BancShares completed fourteen FDIC-assisted transactions between 2009 and 2017.
Nine of the fourteen FDIC-assisted transactions included shared-loss agreements
which, for their terms, protected us from a substantial portion of the credit
and asset quality risk we would otherwise have incurred.
For certain FDIC-assisted transactions, the shared-loss agreement included a
provision related to a payment owed to the FDIC at the termination of the
agreement. As of September 30, 2021, these agreements have been satisfied
following a $16.1 million payment made to the FDIC for the final active
agreement during the first quarter of 2021.
