2 Forward-Looking Statements; Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures Forward Looking Information This earnings presentation includes “forward-looking statements” as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements, often accompanied by words such as “may,” “might,” “could,” “anticipate,” “expect,” and similar terms, are based on management’s current expectations and assumptions regarding future events or determinations, all of which are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees, nor should they be relied upon as representing management’s views as of any subsequent date. Factors that could cause our actual results, performance or achievements, industry trends, and results or regulatory outcomes to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements are discussed in our 2020 Form 10-K and subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and are available on our website (www.zionsbancorporation.com) and from the SEC (www.sec.gov). Except to the extent required by law, we specifically disclaim any obligation to update any factors or to publicly announce the revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect future events or developments. Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures: This document contains several references to non-GAAP measures, including pre-provision net revenue and the “efficiency ratio,” which are common industry terms used by investors and financial services analysts. Certain of these non-GAAP measures are key inputs into Zions’ management compensation and are used in Zions’ strategic goals that have been and may continue to be articulated to investors. Therefore, the use of such non-GAAP measures are believed by management to be of substantial interest to the consumers of these financial disclosures and are used prominently throughout the disclosures. A full reconciliation of the difference between such measures and GAAP financials is provided within the document, and users of this document are encouraged to carefully review this reconciliation.

Loan Growth in Detail Moderate to strong loan growth achieved in certain targeted growth categories Linked Quarter Loan Balance Growth, Excluding PPP Total Loans, excluding PPP: +3% Linked quarter:  Excluding PPP loans, period-end loans increased $1.4 billion or 3%  Loan growth in dollars predominantly in C&I (ex-O&G), Owner-Occupied, Municipal, and Home Equity  Decline of 40% in SBA PPP accounted for approximately $1.2 billion of attrition Over the next four quarters, we expect moderate total loan growth, driven by:  Moderate to strong growth in Home Equity, Municipal, C&I and Owner-Occupied loans  Stable to moderate growth in O&G, CRE  Further shrinking of the SBA PPP portfolio G ro w th R at e: L in ke d Q ua rt er , n ot a nn ua liz ed Size of the Portfolio, in billions of dollars 10 C&I (ex-Oil & Gas), 6% Owner occupied, 3% CRE C&D, -3% CRE Term, 1% Home Equity, 6% 1-4 Family, -1%Energy (Oil & Gas), -3% Municipal, 8% Other, 4% -10% -5% 0% 5% 10% 15% $0 $5 $10 $15 Note: circle size indicates relative proportion of loan portfolio as of 4Q21.PPP loans, not shown on graph, declined 40% in 4Q21 vs. 3Q21

Zions’ active efforts to invest the inflow of deposits has helped to limit the compression of the net interest margin. The increase in average securities over the past year (as opposed to leaving it in cash) has supported the NIM and has boosted recurring revenue.

Financial Outlook (4Q 2022E vs 4Q 2021A) 20 Outlook Comments Moderately Increasing  Moderate growth in the next twelve months, excluding PPP loans. Increasing  Does not include interest rate increases. Any interest rate increases are expected to be additive to our net interest income outlook.  Excludes PPP loan income. Slightly Increasing  Customer-related fees excludes securities gains, dividends, and property sales gains. Moderately Increasing  Outlook excludes the $10 million charitable contribution in 4Q21.  4Q22 expected to be moderately higher than 4Q21’s adjusted noninterest expense of $446 million less $10 million, or $436 million.  A greater portion of the capital generated is likely to be allocated to support balance sheet growth than in the recent quarters.  Relative to recent quarters, reduced share repurchases is likely.
