29 amerantbank.com Explanation of Certain Non-GAAP Financial Measures This Presentation contains certain adjusted financial information, and their effects on noninterest income, noninterest expense, income taxes, net income, Core pre-provision net revenue, ROA and ROE and certain other financial ratios. These adjustments include: • the $1.7 million loss on the sale of the Beacon operations center during the fourth quarter of 2020 • the $2.8 million net gain on the sale of vacant Beacon land during the fourth quarter of 2019, • spin-off expenses totaling $6.7 million in 2018, beginning in the fourth quarter of 2017 and continuing to the fourth quarter of 2018, • the $6.4 million, $5.0 million, $11.9 million and $4.4 million in restructuring expenses in 2018, 2019, 2020 and the first half of 2021, respectively, related to staff reduction costs, legal and strategic advisory costs, rebranding costs, digital transformation costs, branch closure expenses and lease impairment charge • the effect of non-core banking activities such as the sale of loans and securities, and other non-recurring actions intended to improve customer service and operating performance The Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures, within the meaning of SEC Regulation G, which are included in this Presentation to explain our results and which are used in our internal evaluation and management of the Company’s businesses. The Company’s management believes these non-GAAP financial measures and the information they provide are useful to investors since these measures permit investors to view the Company’s performance using the same tools that management uses to evaluate the Company’s past performance and prospects for future performance. The Company believes these are especially useful in light of the effects of our spin-off and related restructuring expenses, as well as the sale of the Beacon operations center in the fourth quarter of 2020, the sale of the vacant Beacon land in the fourth quarter of 2019 and the effect of non-core banking activities such as the sale of loans and securities, and other non-recurring actions intended to improve customer service and operating performance. These as-adjusted measures are not in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). This Appendix 2 reconciles these adjustments to reported results.

These actions include, but are not limited to, reductions in workforce, s treamlining operational processes, rolling out the Amerant brand, implementation of new technology system applications, enhanced sales tools and training, expanded product offerings and improved customer analytics to identify opportunities (3) In the second quarter of 2021, includes expenses in connection with the departure of the Company's Chief Operating Officer and the elimination of various other support function pos itions, including the NYC LPO. In the fourth quarter of 2020, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted a voluntary early retirement plan for certain eligible long-term employees and an involuntary severance plan for certain other positions consistent with the Company's effort to s treamline operations and better align its operating structure with its business activities. 31 employees elected to participate in the voluntary plan, all of whom retired on or before December 31, 2020. The involuntary plan impacted 31 employees most of whom no longer worked for the Company and/or its subsidiaries by December 31, 2020. On December 28, 2020, t he Company determined the termination costs and annual savings related to the voluntary and involuntary plans. The Company incurred approximately $3.5 million and $1.8 million in one-time termination costs in the fourth quarter of 2020 in connection with the voluntary and involuntary plans, respectively, the majority of which will be pa id over time in the form of installment payments until December 2021. The C ompany estimates that the voluntary and involuntary plans will yield estimated annual savings of approximately $4.2 million and $5.5 million, respectively, for combined estimated annual savings of approximately $9.7 million beginning in 2021. (4) The spin-off caused an unexpected early distribution for U .S. federal income tax purposes from our deferred compensation plan. This distribution was taxable to plan participants as ordinary income during 2018. We partially compensated plan participants, in the aggregate amount of $1.2 million, for the higher tax expense they incurred as a result of the dis tribution increasing the plan participants' estimated effective federal income tax rates by recording a contribution to the plan on behalf of its participants. The after tax net effec t of this $1.2 million contribution for the period ended September 30, 2018, was approximately $952,000. As a result of the early taxable distribution to plan participants, we expensed and deducted for federal income tax purposes, previously deferred compensation of approximately $8.1 million, resulting in an estimated tax c redit of $1.7 million, which exceeded the amount of the tax gross-up paid to plan participants (5) C alculated based upon the estimated annual effective tax rate for the periods, which excludes the tax effect of discrete items, and the amounts that resulted from the permanent difference between spin-off costs that are non-deductible for Federal and state income tax purposes, and total spin-off costs recognized in the consolidated financial statements. The estimated annual effective rate applied for the calculation differs from the reported effective tax rate s ince it is based on a different mix of s tatutory rates applicable to these expenses and to the rates applicable to the C ompany and its subsidiaries (6) In the s ix months ended June 30, 2021, potential dilutive instruments consisted of unvested shares of restricted stock, restr icted stock units and performance share units (unvested share of restricted s tock and restricted stock units for all of the other periods shown). In 2020, potential diluti ve instruments were not included in the dilutive earnings per share computation because the C ompany reported a net loss and their inclusion would have an antidilutive effect. In the s ix months ended June 30, 2021 and in 2019, potential dilutive instruments were included in the diluted earnings per share computation because, when the unamortized deferred compensation cost related to these shares was divided by the average market price per share in those periods, fewer shares would have been purchased than restricted shares assumed issued. Therefore, in those periods, such awards resulted in higher diluted weighted averages shares outstanding than basic weighted average shares outstanding, and had a dilutive effect in per share earnings.
