NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
These slides contain non-GAAP financial measures. For purposes of Regulation G, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of the
registrant’s historical or future financial performance, financial position or cash flows that excludes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that
have the effect of excluding amounts, that are included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with
GAAP in the statement of income, balance sheet or statement of cash flows (or equivalent statements) of the issuer; or includes amounts, or is
subject to adjustments that have the effect of including amounts, that are excluded from the most directly comparable measure so calculated
and presented. In this regard, GAAP refers to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Pursuant to the requirements of
Regulation G, First Merchants Corporation has provided reconciliations within the slides, as necessary, of the non-GAAP financial measure to the
most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
