## Management's discussion and analysis

As filed, 76,001 characters.

This Management's Discussion relates to the Corporation, a financial holding company registered under the BHCA and incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Management's Discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and other financial information presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

### OVERVIEW

The Corporation is a financial holding company, which, through its wholly-owned banking subsidiary, provides a full range of consumer and commercial financial services in Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey and Virginia.

The Corporation generates the majority of its revenue through net interest income, or the difference between interest earned on loans and investments and interest paid on deposits and borrowings. Growth in net interest income is dependent upon balance sheet growth and maintaining or increasing the NIM, which is FTE net interest income as a percentage of average interest-earning assets. The Corporation also generates revenue through fees earned on the various services and products offered to its customers and through gains on sales of assets, such as loans, investments and properties. Offsetting these revenue sources are provisions for credit losses on loans and OBS credit risks, non-interest expenses and income taxes.

### H.R. 1

On July 4, 2025, President Trump signed H.R. 1 into law, which extends or reinstates certain provisions of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, includes tax relief measures, modifies certain energy tax credits granted under the Inflation Reduction Act and sets various limits on tax deductions, among other key provisions. H.R. 1 has multiple effective dates, with certain provisions effective in 2025 and others implemented through 2027. The Corporation does not expect H.R. 1 to have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

The following table presents a summary of the Corporation's earnings and selected performance ratios:

#### Financial Highlights

*Net Income Available to Common Shareholders and Net Income Per Share* - Net income available to common shareholders was $96.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, a $4.2 million increase compared to $92.4 million for the same period in 2024. Net income available to common shareholders per diluted share was $0.53 for the three months ended June 30, 2025, a $0.01 increase compared to the same period in 2024.

Net income available to common shareholders was $187.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, a $35.3 million increase compared to $151.8 million for the same period in 2024. Net income available to common shareholders per diluted share was $1.02 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, a $0.13 increase compared to the same period in 2024.

#### Six Months Ended June 30, 2025 Results were Impacted by the Following Items:

- NIM of 3.45%, an 8 bps increase compared to 3.37% for the same period in 2024.
- Net interest income of $506.1 million, a $57.5 million increase compared to $448.7 million for the same period in 2024.

- Non-interest income of $136.4 million, a $13.8 million decrease compared to $150.1 million for the same period in 2024.
- Non-interest expense of $382.3 million, a $5.2 million increase compared to $377.1 million for the same period in 2024.

#### Critical Accounting Policies

The Corporation's accounting policies are fundamental to understanding Management’s Discussion. Critical policies are those that the Corporation considers to be most important to the presentation of its financial condition and results of operations, because they require management's most difficult judgments as a result of the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain.

The Corporation's critical accounting policies are described in Part II, "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" under the heading "Critical Accounting Policies" in the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

#### Supplemental Reporting of Non-GAAP Based Financial Measures

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains supplemental financial information, as detailed below, that has been derived by methods other than GAAP. The Corporation has presented these non-GAAP financial measures because it believes that these measures provide useful and comparative information to assess trends in the Corporation's results of operations. Presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is consistent with how the Corporation evaluates its performance internally and these non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in the Corporation's industry. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to GAAP measures, are also useful to investors to evaluate the Corporation's results. Investors should recognize that the Corporation's presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures might not be comparable to similarly-titled measures of other companies.

These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for GAAP basis measures, and the Corporation strongly encourages a review of its Consolidated Financial Statements in their entirety.

Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure follow:

### RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

#### Three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024

#### Net Interest Income

FTE net interest income was $259.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $13.0 million, compared to $246.3 million for the same period in 2024. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, NIM increased to 3.47%, or 4 bps, compared to the same period in 2024. The Corporation manages the risk associated with changes in interest rates through the techniques described within Part 1, "Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk" in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The following table provides a comparative average balance sheet and net interest income analysis for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024. Interest income and yields are presented on an FTE basis using a 21% federal tax rate as well as statutory interest expense disallowances. The discussion following this table is based on these taxable-equivalent amounts.

Note: Changes which are partially attributable to both volume and rate are allocated to the volume and rate components presented above based on the percentage of direct changes that are attributable to each component.

Compared to the second quarter of 2024, FTE total interest income for the second quarter of 2025 increased $2.1 million, or 0.5%, due to an increase of $175.2 million attributable to changes in volume, partially offset by a decrease of $173.1 million attributable to changes in yield. The increase due to changes in volume was largely due to an increase in average net loans in part due to loans acquired in the Republic First Transaction. The decrease due to changes in yield was primarily due to a decline in interest rates on average net loans and other interest-earning assets.

The yield on average total interest-earning assets decreased 20 bps for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 primarily due to lower interest rates.

In the second quarter of 2025, interest expense decreased $10.9 million compared to the second quarter of 2024, primarily driven by a decrease of $139.4 million attributable to changes in rate, partially offset by an increase of $128.4 million attributable to changes in volume. The increase in interest expense attributable to changes in volume was driven by increases in average time deposits and average savings and money market deposits in part due to deposits assumed in the Republic First Transaction. The decrease in interest expense attributable to changes in rate was primarily due to lower interest rates.

The rate on average total interest-bearing liabilities decreased 33 bps for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 primarily due to lower interest rates.

Average loans and average FTE yields, by type, are summarized in the following table:

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, average net loans increased $1.6 billion, or 7.1%, compared to the same period in 2024. The increase in average net loans was largely due to loans acquired in the Republic First Transaction.

The yield on total loans decreased 16 bps for the first six months of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 primarily due to lower interest rates.

Average deposits and average interest rates, by type, are summarized in the following table:

| Total deposits | **$26,147,628** | **2.01%** | $23,010,854 | 2.05% | $3,136,774 | 13.6% |

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, average total deposits increased $3.1 billion, or 13.6%, compared to the same period in 2024. The increase in average total deposits was primarily due to increases of $1.4 billion, $1.1 billion and $762.7 million in average interest-bearing demand deposits, average savings and money market deposits and average time deposits, respectively, partially offset by a decrease of $307.1 million in average brokered deposits. The increase in average deposits was largely due to deposits assumed in the Republic First Transaction.

The cost of total deposits decreased 4 bps to 2.01% for the first six months of 2025 compared to 2.05% for the same period of 2024 primarily due to a decline in interest rates.

Average borrowings and other interest-bearing liabilities and interest rates, by type, are summarized in the following table:

*(dollars in thousands)*

(1) Includes repurchase agreements, short-term promissory notes and capital leases and collateral liabilities.

Average borrowings and other interest-bearing liabilities decreased $769.5 million, or 30.5%, in the first six months of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024. The decrease in average borrowings and other interest-bearing liabilities was due to decreases of $341.2 million, $168.2 million, $157.5 million and $102.6 million in average other borrowings and interest-bearing liabilities, average senior debt and subordinated debt, average FHLB advances and average Federal funds purchased, respectively.

#### Provision for Credit Losses

The provision for credit losses was $22.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $43.0 million for the same period in 2024. The $20.5 million decrease in the provision for credit losses compared to the same period in 2024 was primarily due to a $23.4 provision for credit losses for non-PCD loans recorded as a result of the Republic First Transaction in the second quarter of 2024.

#### Non-Interest Income

Non-interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2025 decreased $13.8 million, or 9.2%, compared to the same period in 2024. Excluding investment securities (losses) gains, net and gain on acquisition, net of tax, non-interest income increased $13.4 million or 10.9%. The increase in non-interest income before investment securities (losses) gains, net and gain on acquisition, net of tax, was primarily due to increases of $2.9 million in wealth management revenues due to an increase in assets under management, $2.9 million in cash management fee income due to an increase in account analysis fees as customers moved funds to interest-bearing deposit accounts and $4.5 million in income from equity method investments, reflected in other non-interest income.

In May 2024, the Corporation sold $345.7 million of AFS investment securities and recorded a pre-tax loss of $20.3 million. The proceeds from the sale were reinvested into higher-yielding investment securities of a similar type and similar duration.

The increase in non-interest expense was largely due to increases of $6.5 million in intangible amortization driven by CDI amortization expense resulting from the Republic First Transaction and $6.2 million in salaries and employee benefits primarily due to an increase in incentive compensation expense and annual merit increases.

#### Income Taxes

The Corporation's ETR was 19.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to 12.2% for the same period in 2024. Excluding the impact from the $47.4 million gain on acquisition, net of tax, the Corporation's ETR was 16.6% for the same period in 2024.

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, net loans decreased $32.4 million, or 0.1%, compared to December 31, 2024. The decrease in net loans during the first six months of 2025 was primarily due to decreases of $239.8 million in construction loans and $63.8 million in commercial and industrial loans, partially offset by increases of $162.0 million in residential mortgage loans and $76.2 million in commercial mortgage loans.

The Corporation does not have a significant concentration of credit risk with any single borrower. As of June 30, 2025, approximately $10.8 billion, or 45.1%, of the loan portfolio was comprised of commercial mortgage loans and construction loans.

The Corporation has established lower total lending limits for certain types of commercial lending commitments and lower total lending limits based on the Corporation's internal risk rating of an individual borrower at the time the lending commitment is approved. The Corporation adheres to loan portfolio management practices, which include requiring an annual review of the majority of loans. Additionally, management monitors the loan portfolio throughout the year taking into account, among other things, the size, complexity and risk of loans and individual borrowers. An independent loan review function assesses the portfolio for internal risk rating accuracy and loan servicing policy requirements. The Corporation consolidates risk migrations to identify emerging risks by industry and real estate property types, taking into consideration economic forecasts and industry trends. The Corporation takes a risk-based approach when reviewing a specific loan portfolio, such as the commercial office loan portfolio or multi-family loan portfolio. The Corporation reviews portfolio concentrations and adjusts the lending limits based on asset quality, economic forecasts and industry outlook.

The following table summarizes the industry concentrations within the commercial mortgage and the commercial and industrial loan portfolios:

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, non-accrual loans decreased by approximately $6.4 million, or 3.4%, largely due to $113.9 million in payments, $34.1 million in charge-offs and $5.3 million in transfers to accrual status, partially offset by $148.1 million in additions. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, non-accrual loans as a percentage of total net loans decreased to 0.76% compared to 0.79% as of December 31, 2024.

The following table presents non-performing assets for the periods shown below:

(1) Excludes $13.9 million and $17.5 million of residential mortgage properties for which formal foreclosure proceedings were in process as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

Non-performing loans as of June 30, 2025 were $212.9 million, a decrease of $7.2 million, or 3.3%, compared to $220.1 million as of December 31, 2024. The decrease in non-performing loans during the first six months of 2025 was primarily due to payments, charge-offs and transfers to accrual status, partially offset by additions. Non-performing loans as a percentage of total net loans was 0.89% and 0.92% as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

The Corporation's ability to identify potential problem loans in a timely manner is important to maintaining an adequate ACL. For commercial and industrial loans, commercial mortgage loans, commercial construction loans and leases and other loans, an internal risk rating process is used to monitor credit quality. The evaluation of credit risk for residential mortgages, home equity loans, construction loans to individuals and consumer loans is based on payment history through the monitoring of delinquency levels and trends.

Total internally risk-rated loans were $15.5 billion and $15.4 billion as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, of which $1.7 billion were criticized and classified loans at June 30, 2025 compared to $1.8 billion at December 31, 2024.

The following table presents criticized and classified loans, or those with internal risk ratings of special mention or substandard or lower for commercial mortgage loans, commercial and industrial loans and construction loans to commercial borrowers, by class segment:

| Total deposits | **$26,138,067** | $26,129,433 | $8,634 | N/M |

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, total deposits increased by $8.6 million compared to December 31, 2024. The increase in total deposits was primarily due to an increase of $479.8 million in savings and money market deposits, partially offset by decreases of $250.5 million, $162.0 million and $32.2 million in interest-bearing demand deposits, noninterest-bearing demand deposits and time deposits, respectively.

Total uninsured deposits (excluding intra-Company deposits) were estimated to be $9.2 billion and $9.4 billion as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

Time deposits of $250 thousand or more were $1.1 billion and $1.0 billion as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

The following table presents ending borrowings by type:

*(dollars in thousands)*

|  | June 30, 2025 | December 31, 2024 $% | Increase (Decrease) |  |

| Total borrowings | **$1,773,900** | $1,782,048 | $(8,148) | (0.5)% |

(1) Includes repurchase agreements, short-term promissory notes and capital leases.

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, total borrowings decreased $8.1 million, or 0.5%, compared to December 31, 2024. The decrease in total borrowings was primarily due to a decrease in FHLB advances of $50.0 million, partially offset by an increase in other borrowings of $41.7 million.

#### Shareholders' Equity

On December 17, 2024, the Corporation announced that its Board of Directors approved the 2025 Repurchase Program. The 2025 Repurchase Program will expire on December 31, 2025. Under the 2025 Repurchase Program, the Corporation is authorized to repurchase up to $125.0 million of shares of its common stock. Under the 2025 Repurchase Program up to $25.0 million may be used to repurchase shares of the Corporation's preferred stock.

On April 15, 2025, the Corporation announced that its Board of Directors approved a supplemental authorization under the 2025 Repurchase Program to repurchase up to $25 million of the Subordinated Notes due 2030; provided that the purchase price of the Corporation's preferred stock and the Subordinated Notes due 2030 may not exceed, in the aggregate, $25 million.

The 2025 Repurchase Program may be discontinued at any time.

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, 553,767 shares of common stock were repurchased under the 2025 Repurchase Program at a total cost of $9.0 million or $16.28 per share.

On May 1, 2024, the Corporation completed its underwritten public offering of 19,166,667 shares of its common stock at a price to the public of $15.00 per share, before underwriting discounts. The net proceeds to the Corporation from the offering after deducting underwriting discounts and transaction expenses were approximately $272.6 million.

#### Regulatory Capital

The Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiary bank, Fulton Bank, are subject to the Capital Rules administered by banking regulators. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can trigger certain actions by regulators that could have a material effect on the Corporation's financial statements.

The Capital Rules require the Corporation and Fulton Bank to:

- Meet a minimum Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 4.50% of risk-weighted assets;
- Meet a minimum Tier 1 Leverage capital ratio of 4.00% of average assets;
- Meet a minimum Total capital ratio of 8.00% of risk-weighted assets and a minimum Tier 1 capital ratio of 6.00% of risk-weighted assets;
- Maintain a "capital conservation buffer" of 2.50% above the minimum risk-based capital requirements, which must be maintained to avoid restrictions on capital distributions and certain discretionary bonus payments; and
- Comply with a revised definition of capital to improve the ability of regulatory capital instruments to absorb losses. Certain non-qualifying capital instruments, including cumulative preferred stock and TruPS, are excluded as a component of Tier 1 capital for institutions of the Corporation's size.

As of June 30, 2025, the Corporation's capital levels met the minimum capital requirements, including the capital conservation buffers, as prescribed in the Capital Rules.

As of June 30, 2025, Fulton Bank met the well-capitalized requirements under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well-capitalized, a bank must maintain minimum Total risk-based, Tier I risk-based, Common Equity Tier I risk-based and Tier I leverage ratios as set forth in the Capital Rules. There were no other conditions or events since June 30, 2025 that management believes have changed the Corporation's capital categories.

The following table summarizes the Corporation's capital ratios in comparison to regulatory requirements:

|  | June 30, 2025 | December 31, 2024 | Regulatory Minimum for Capital Adequacy | With Capital Conservation Buffer |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| Total Risk-Based Capital (to Risk-Weighted Assets) | **14.7%** | 14.3% | 8.0% | 10.5% |
| Tier I Risk-Based Capital (to Risk-Weighted Assets) | **12.1%** | 11.5% | 6.0% | 8.5% |
| Common Equity Tier I (to Risk-Weighted Assets) | **11.3%** | 10.8% | 4.5% | 7.0% |
| Tier I Leverage Capital (to Average Assets) | **9.4%** | 9.0% | 4.0% | 4.0% |

## Market risk

As filed, 14,754 characters.

Market risk is the exposure to economic loss that arises from changes in the values of certain financial instruments. The types of market risk exposures generally faced by financial institutions include interest rate risk, equity market price risk, debt security market price risk, foreign currency price risk and commodity price risk. Due to the nature of its operations, foreign currency price risk and commodity price risk are not significant to the Corporation.

#### Interest Rate Risk, Asset/Liability Management and Liquidity

Interest rate risk creates exposure in two primary areas. First, changes in rates have an impact on the Corporation's liquidity position and could affect its ability to meet obligations and continue to grow. Second, movements in interest rates can create fluctuations in the Corporation's net interest income and changes in the economic value of its equity.

The Corporation employs various management techniques to minimize its exposure to interest rate risk. The Corporation's ALCO is responsible for reviewing the interest rate sensitivity and liquidity positions of the Corporation, approving asset and liability management policies, and overseeing the formulation and implementation of strategies regarding balance sheet positions.

The Corporation uses two complementary methods to measure and manage interest rate risk. They are a simulation of net interest income and estimates of economic value of equity. Using these measurements in tandem provides a reasonably comprehensive summary of the magnitude of the Corporation's interest rate risk, level of risk as time evolves, and exposure to changes in interest rates.

Simulation of net interest income is performed for the next 12-month period. A variety of interest rate scenarios are used to measure the effects of sudden and gradual movements upward and downward in the yield curve. These results are compared to the results obtained in a flat or unchanged interest rate scenario. Simulation of net interest income is used primarily to measure the Corporation's short-term earnings exposure to rate movements. During the first quarter of 2025, the Corporation revised its policy to measure its interest rate risk profile using parallel instantaneous shocks rather than non-parallel instantaneous shocks. The Corporation has not changed its established interest rate risk policy limits.

The Corporation's policy limits the potential exposure of net interest income in a parallel instantaneous shock to 10% of the base case net interest income for a 100 bps shock in interest rates, 15% for a 200 bps shock, 20% for a 300 bps shock and 25% for a 400 bps shock. A "shock" is an immediate upward or downward movement of interest rates. The shocks do not take into account changes in customer behavior that could result in changes to mix and/or volumes in the balance sheet, nor does it take into account the potential effects of competition on the pricing of deposits and loans over the forward 12-month period. As of June 30, 2025, the Corporation was within the policy limits for exposure of net interest income for every 100 bps parallel instantaneous shock.

Contractual maturities and repricing opportunities of loans are incorporated in the simulation model as are prepayment assumptions, maturity data and call options within the investment portfolio. Assumptions based on past experience are incorporated into the model for non-maturity deposit accounts. The assumptions used are inherently uncertain and, as a result, the model cannot precisely measure future net interest income or precisely predict the impact of fluctuations in market interest rates on net interest income. Actual results will differ from the model's simulated results due to timing, amount and frequency of interest rate changes as well as changes in market conditions and the application and timing of various management strategies.

The following table summarizes the expected impact of interest rate changes in rate-ramp scenarios over a 12-month period, that is, a gradual parallel shift and a gradual non-parallel shift, on net interest income as of June 30, 2025:

| Rate Ramp(1) +400 bp +300 bp +200 bp +100 bp | Parallel Shift Annual change in net interest income + $33.5 million + $27.1 million + $20.3 million + $12.3 million | % change in net interest income +3.0% +2.4% +1.8% +1.1% | Non-Parallel Shift Annual change in net interest income + $24.8 million + $20.6 million + $15.9 million + $10.2 million | % change in net interest income +2.2% +1.8% +1.4% +0.9% |
| --- | --- | ---: | --- | ---: |
| –100 bp | - $7.9 million | -0.7% | - $6.0 million | -0.5% |
| –200 bp | - $15.3 million | -1.4% | - $9.8 million | -0.9% |
| –300 bp | - $22.6 million | -2.0% | - $13.7 million | -1.2% |
| –400 bp | - $30.6 million | -2.7% | - $18.4 million | -1.7% |

(1) These results include the effect of implicit and explicit interest rate floors that limit further reduction in interest rates.

The following table summarizes the expected impact of abrupt interest rate changes, that is, a parallel instantaneous shock and a non-parallel instantaneous shock, on net interest income as of June 30, 2025:

| Rate Shock(1) +400 bp +300 bp +200 bp +100 bp | Parallel Instantaneous Shock Annual change in net interest income + $60.4 million + $51.0 million + $40.6 million + $27.2 million | % change in net interest income +5.4% +4.6% +3.6% +2.4% | Non-Parallel Instantaneous Shock Annual change in net interest income + $32.7 million + $30.0 million + $26.6 million + $19.7 million | % change in net interest income +2.9% +2.7% +2.4% +1.8% |
| --- | --- | ---: | --- | ---: |

(1) These results include the effect of implicit and explicit interest rate floors that limit further reduction in interest rates.

Economic value of equity estimates the discounted present value of asset and liability cash flows. Discount rates are based upon market prices for like assets and liabilities. Abrupt changes or "shocks" in interest rates, both upward and downward, are used to determine the comparative effect of such interest rate movements relative to the unchanged environment. This measurement tool is used primarily to evaluate the longer-term repricing risks and options in the Corporation's balance sheet. The Corporation's policy limits the economic value of equity that may be at risk in a parallel instantaneous shock to 10% of the base case economic value of equity for a 100 bps shock in interest rates, 20% for a 200 bps shock, 30% for a 300 bps shock and 40% for a 400 bps shock. As of June 30, 2025, the Corporation was within economic value of equity policy limits for every 100 bps parallel instantaneous shock.

#### Interest Rate Derivatives

The Corporation enters into interest rate derivatives with certain qualifying commercial loan customers to meet their interest rate risk management needs. The Corporation simultaneously enters into interest rate derivatives with dealer counterparties, with identical notional amounts and terms. The net result of these interest rate derivatives is that the customer pays a fixed rate of interest and the Corporation receives a floating rate. These interest rate derivatives are derivative financial instruments, and the gross fair values are recorded in other assets and liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.

#### Cash Flow Hedges

The Corporation's objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to reduce volatility in net interest income and net interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Corporation primarily uses interest rate derivatives as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. The Corporation enters into interest rate derivatives designated as cash flow hedges to hedge the cash flows associated with existing loans and borrowings.

For derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk, the unrealized gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in AOCI and subsequently reclassified into interest income or interest expense in the same period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Amounts reported in AOCI related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest income or interest expense as interest payments are received or made on the Corporation's loans and borrowings.

In January 2023, the Corporation terminated interest rate derivatives designated as cash flow hedges with a combined notional amount of $1.0 billion. As the hedged transaction continues to be probable, the unrealized losses that have been recorded in AOCI are recognized as a reduction to interest income, including fees, when the previously forecasted hedged item affects earnings in future periods. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, $6.5 million of these unrealized losses have been reclassified as a reduction of interest income on loans, including fees, on the Consolidated Statements of Income. During the year ended December 31, 2024, $27.9 million of these unrealized losses have been reclassified as a reduction of interest income on loans, including fees, on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

#### Liquidity

The Corporation must maintain a sufficient level of liquid assets to meet the cash needs of its customers, who, as depositors, may want to withdraw funds or who, as borrowers, need credit availability. Liquidity is provided on a continuous basis through scheduled and unscheduled principal and interest payments on investments and outstanding loans and through the availability of deposits and borrowings. The Corporation also maintains secondary sources that provide liquidity on a secured and unsecured basis to meet short- and long-term needs.

The Corporation maintains liquidity sources in the form of interest-bearing deposits and customer funding (short-term promissory notes). The Corporation can access additional liquidity from these sources, if necessary, by increasing the rates of interest paid on those instruments. The positive impact to liquidity resulting from paying higher interest rates could have a detrimental impact on NIM and net interest income if rates on interest-earning assets do not experience a proportionate increase. Borrowing availability with the FHLB and the FRB, along with federal funds lines at various correspondent banks, provides the Corporation with additional liquidity.

Fulton Bank is a member of the FHLB and has access to FHLB overnight and term credit facilities. As of June 30, 2025, the Bank had total borrowing capacity of approximately $11.2 billion with $4.9 billion of advances and letters of credit outstanding, for a remaining available borrowing capacity of approximately $6.3 billion under these facilities. Advances from the FHLB, when utilized, are secured by qualifying commercial real estate and residential mortgage loans, investments and other assets.

As of June 30, 2025, the Corporation had aggregate federal funds lines borrowing capacity of $2.6 billion with no amounts outstanding against that amount. As of June 30, 2025, the Corporation had $3.9 billion of collateralized borrowing capacity at the FRB discount window with no amounts outstanding.

A combination of commercial real estate loans, commercial loans, consumer loans and securities are pledged to the FRB of Philadelphia to provide access to FRB discount window borrowings. Securities carried at $0.4 billion at June 30, 2025 and $0.3 billion at December 31, 2024 were pledged as collateral to secure public and trust deposits.

Liquidity must also be managed at the Parent Company. For safety and soundness reasons, banking regulations limit the amount of cash that can be transferred from subsidiary banks to the parent company in the form of loans and dividends. Generally, these limitations are based on the subsidiary banks’ regulatory capital levels and their net income. Management continues to monitor the liquidity and capital needs of the Parent Company including monitoring the granularity of the deposit portfolio and level of uninsured deposits. Management will implement appropriate strategies, as necessary, to remain adequately capitalized and to meet its cash needs.

The Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows in Part I. "Item 1. Financial Statements" provide additional information. The Corporation's operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2025 generated $92.5 million of cash. Cash used by investing activities was $270.0 million and was primarily due to a net increase in investment securities. Cash used by financing activities was $81.7 million primarily due to dividends paid.

#### Debt Security Market Price Risk

Debt security market price risk is the risk that changes in the values of debt securities, unrelated to interest rate changes, could have a material impact on the financial position or results of operations of the Corporation. The Corporation's debt security investments consist primarily of U.S. government-sponsored agency issued mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations, state and municipal securities, and corporate debt securities. All of the Corporation's investments in mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations have principal payments that are guaranteed by U.S. government-sponsored agencies.

#### State and Municipal Securities

As of June 30, 2025, the Corporation owned securities issued by various states and municipalities with a total fair value of $774.7 million. Uncertainty with respect to the financial strength of state and municipal bond insurers places emphasis on the underlying strength of issuers. Pressure on local tax revenues of issuers due to adverse economic conditions could have an adverse impact on the underlying credit quality of issuers. The Corporation evaluates existing and potential holdings primarily based on the underlying creditworthiness of the issuing state or municipality and then, to a lesser extent, on any credit enhancement. State and municipal securities can be supported by the general obligation of the issuing state or municipality, allowing the securities to be repaid by any means available to the issuing state or municipality. As of June 30, 2025, approximately 100% of state and municipal securities were supported by the general obligation of corresponding states or municipalities. Approximately 75% of these securities were school district issuances, which are also supported by the states of the issuing municipalities.
