The Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) system and Federal Reserve have been, and remain, significant sources of additional liquidity and funding. However, borrowing from the FHLB is subject to requirements and conditions, and may not always be available as a source of liquidity.
The Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) system and Federal Reserve remain significant sources of supplementary liquidity and funding. However, access to FHLB advances is subject to specific eligibility requirements and conditions, and such funding may not always be 16 Table of Contents ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES available.
For example, we use models to inform our estimate of the allowance for credit losses, manage interest rate and liquidity risk, project stress losses in various segments of our loan and investment portfolios, and forecast net revenue under stress. However, models cannot perfectly predict outcomes, and management decisions based on these models may therefore be suboptimal.
We utilize various models in the management of the Bank, including those used to estimate the allowance for credit losses (“ACL”), manage interest rate and liquidity risk, project stress-related losses across segments of our loan and investment portfolios, and forecast net revenue under adverse conditions. However, models are inherently subject to limitations and cannot precisely predict future outcomes.
Our ability to fully realize our deferred tax asset could be reduced in the future if our estimates of future taxable income from our operations, future reversals of existing deferred tax liabilities (“DTLs”), or tax planning strategies do not support the realization of our deferred tax asset.
Our ability to fully realize the value of these assets may be adversely affected if future projections of taxable income, anticipated reversals of existing deferred tax liabilities (“DTLs”), or the effectiveness of tax planning strategies do not sufficiently support their recoverability.
Changes in applicable tax laws, regulations, macroeconomic conditions, or market conditions may adversely affect our financial results, and there can be no assurance that we will be able to fully realize our deferred tax assets. For information about how we manage capital, see “Capital Management” in MD&A on page 77.
Additionally, changes in applicable tax laws and regulations, as well as shifts in macroeconomic or market conditions, may adversely impact our financial results. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that we will be able to fully realize our DTAs.
Political developments, including those arising from transitions in administration and shifts in congressional control, may create volatility and uncertainty, potentially resulting in significant changes in the size, scope, and effectiveness of government agencies and services. Political developments, such as those recently announced or enacted by the new administration, may result in sudden changes in laws, policies, and government operations.
Political developments—including those resulting from administrative transitions and shifts in congressional control—can introduce volatility and uncertainty, potentially leading to significant changes in the size, scope, and effectiveness of government agencies and services. Political developments may result in rapid changes to legislation, public policy, and governmental operations.
The soundness and stability of many financial institutions may be closely interrelated due to credit, trading, clearing, or other relationships between these institutions. As a result, concerns about, or a default or threatened default by, one institution could lead to significant market-wide liquidity and credit problems, losses, or defaults by other institutions.
The soundness and stability of many financial institutions are often closely interconnected through various credit, trading, clearing, or other operational relationships. As a result, concerns regarding—or an actual or threatened default by—any single institution could lead to widespread liquidity and credit problems, losses, or defaults across the broader financial system.
If we experience such adverse effects with respect to our employees, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be adversely or materially impacted.

The OCC’s statutory and regulatory frameworks have been used by publicly traded banking organizations relatively rarely and are not as well developed as the corporate and securities law frameworks applicable to other public corporations.
The OCC’s statutory and regulatory frameworks, however, have been applied relatively infrequently to publicly traded banking institutions and remain less developed than the corporate and securities law regimes applicable to other public companies.
LIQUIDITY RISK Changes in the levels and sources of liquidity and capital may limit our operations and potential growth. Our primary source of liquidity is deposits from our customers, which can be influenced by market-related forces such as increased competition and other factors.
LIQUIDITY RISK Fluctuations in the availability and sources of liquidity and capital could restrict our operational flexibility and constrain future growth opportunities. Our primary source of liquidity is customer deposits, which can be influenced by market-related forces such as increased competition, the adoption of emerging technologies—including stablecoins and tokenized deposits—and various other external factors.

Under the National Bank Act and OCC regulations, certain capital transactions, including share repurchases, are subject to the approval of the OCC. These requirements may limit our ability to respond to and take advantage of market developments. Regulatory requirements, economic conditions, and other factors may require us to raise capital at times or in amounts that are unfavorable to us.
These regulatory constraints may limit our ability to respond to and take advantage of evolving market opportunities. Regulatory requirements, prevailing economic conditions, and other factors may require us to raise capital under circumstances or in amounts that are unfavorable to us.

Congress, state legislatures, and other governing or consultative bodies continue to enact rules, laws, and policies to regulate the financial services industry and public companies, including laws that are designed to promote, protect, or penalize certain activities or industries and their access to financial services.
Congress, and other governing or advisory bodies continue to implement rules, laws, and policies that affect financial institutions and public companies. These measures are often intended to promote, restrict, or penalize particular activities or industries, thereby influencing their access to financial services.
As to securities laws, the OCC maintains its own securities offering framework applicable to national banks and their securities offerings, and our compliance with the Exchange Act is governed and enforced by the OCC. 22 Table of Contents ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES State corporate codes, including that of Utah, are widely recognized, updated by legislative action from time-to-time, and may be based on and influenced by model statutes.
In matters related to securities laws, the OCC enforces its own securities offering framework applicable to national banks and their securities issuances. Accordingly, our compliance with the Exchange Act is governed and enforced by the OCC. State corporate statutes—such as those of Utah—are widely recognized, regularly updated through legislative processes, and often informed by model corporate law frameworks.
A failure in our internal controls could significantly negatively impact our earnings, and the perception that customers, regulators, and investors may have of us, thereby adversely affecting our business and stock price. We could be adversely affected by internal and external fraud schemes.
A failure in our internal controls could materially and negatively affect our financial performance and earnings. Moreover, any perceived weakness in our internal controls may undermine stakeholder confidence—including that of customers, regulators, and investors—potentially resulting in reputational harm and adverse impacts on our business operations and stock price. We could be adversely affected by internal and external fraud schemes.
We may face additional risks to the extent our hardware and software providers are unable to deliver patches and updates to mitigate vulnerabilities or we are unable to implement patches in a timely manner, particularly when a vulnerability is being actively exploited by threat actors.
Additional risks may arise if hardware and software vendors are unable to deliver timely patches or if we are unable to implement necessary updates promptly—particularly in cases where threat actors are actively exploiting known vulnerabilities.
Protracted congressional negotiations in Washington, D.C. regarding government funding and other issues introduce additional volatility into the U.S. economy, particularly affecting capital and credit markets and the banking industry. The U.S. government is currently operating under a continuing resolution that provides short-term appropriations.
Prolonged congressional negotiations in Washington, D.C. regarding government funding and related issues introduce additional volatility into the U.S. economy, particularly affecting capital and credit markets and the banking industry. Legislative efforts to enact comprehensive, long-term appropriations have encountered significant challenges in recent years, thereby increasing the risk of a federal government shutdown.
We are, and may in the future become, subject to these laws by offering our products and services to certain industries or in certain locations. The nature of these laws and regulations and their effect on our future business and performance cannot be predicted.
As a provider of financial products and services across multiple industries and geographic markets, we are subject to these regulatory frameworks and may be affected by future legislative developments. Because the scope and impact of these laws and regulations continue to change, their ultimate effect on our business operations and financial performance cannot be predicted.

The types of attacks these threat actors use include, but are not limited to, exploiting customer or system vulnerabilities or misconfigurations, denial-of-service, ransomware, compromising business emails, deceiving employees through email phishing or social engineering, and compromising any of our suppliers.
Threat actors employ a variety of tactics, including exploiting system vulnerabilities or misconfigurations, launching denial-of-service attacks, deploying ransomware, compromising business email systems, deceiving employees through email phishing and social engineering, and targeting our suppliers. These threats can be difficult to detect over extended periods and may be further exacerbated by the use of AI.
The range of permissible financial activities is set forth in the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and is more limited for banks than for bank holding company organizations. The differences relate mainly to insurance underwriting (but not insurance agency activities) and merchant banking (but not broker-dealer and investment advisory activities).
The scope of permissible financial activities is defined under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, with banks subject to more limited authorities than bank holding companies. Notably, bank holding companies may engage in insurance underwriting and merchant banking activities, whereas banks are generally restricted from these lines of business, although insurance agency, broker-dealer, and investment advisory activities remain permissible.
These types of catastrophic events, including the recent wildfires in Southern California, have posed physical risks to our property and disrupted the local economy, our business, and customers, including decreased access to insurance and other services. Additionally, catastrophic events occurring in other regions of the world may have an impact on us and our customers.
Events, such as the 2025 wildfires in Southern California, have presented physical risks to our facilities, disrupted local economic activity, and adversely affected our business and customers—particularly through reduced access to insurance and essential services. Additionally, similar events occurring in other parts of the world may also have indirect impact on our operations and customers.
Changes in FHLB or Federal Reserve funding programs could also adversely affect our liquidity and management of associated risks. Unfavorable rating actions from rating agencies could adversely affect both us and the holders of our securities. We access capital markets to supplement our funding. This access is influenced by the ratings assigned to us by rating agencies.
Furthermore, changes to FHLB or Federal Reserve funding programs could adversely affect our liquidity and the effectiveness of our risk management efforts. Unfavorable rating actions by credit rating agencies could negatively impact our organization as well as the holders of our securities.
Many of these actions are being legally challenged or require further legislative action before implementation. The extent and timing of these changes are uncertain, as are their potential impacts, whether beneficial or adverse, on our business, financial performance, and customers. Legislative, administrative, and judicial changes to tax laws, regulations, and case law may adversely impact our business and financial performance.
Consequently, the timing, scope, and ultimate impact of these developments are uncertain and may produce either favorable or adverse effects on our business operations, financial performance, and customer relationships. Legislative, administrative, and judicial changes to tax laws, regulations, or case law could adversely affect our business operations and financial performance.
The National Bank Act and related regulations may also complicate the structuring of certain nonbank acquisitions. These differences could adversely affect the ability of the Bank and other banks registered under the National Bank Act to efficiently consummate acquisition transactions.
Additionally, the National Bank Act and its implementing regulations may introduce complexities in structuring acquisitions involving nonbank entities. These distinctions may adversely affect the ability of the Bank, and other institutions governed by the National Bank Act, to execute acquisition transactions efficiently.
These regions are known for being vulnerable to natural disasters and other risks, such as hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, wildfires, floods, mudslides, prolonged droughts, and other weather-related events, some of which may be exacerbated by climate change and become more frequent and intense.
These include hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, wildfires, floods, mudslides, prolonged droughts, and other weather-related events, many of which may be exacerbated by the effects of climate change and occur with increasing frequency and severity.
Unlike state corporate law, the National Bank Act requires shareholder approval of all mergers between a national bank and another national or state bank and does not allow for exceptions in the case of various “minor” mergers, such as a parent company’s merger with a subsidiary or an acquirer’s merger with an unaffiliated entity in which the shares issued by the acquirer do not exceed a designated percentage.
Unlike state corporate law, the National Bank Act requires shareholder approval for all mergers involving a national bank and another national or state-chartered bank, without providing exceptions for certain “minor” transactions—such as mergers between a parent company and its subsidiary, or transactions where an acquiring entity issues shares below a specified threshold to an unaffiliated party.
In addition, any enforcement matters could impact our supervisory and CRA ratings, which may restrict or limit our activities. The corporate and securities laws governing us are less developed than those for state-chartered corporations, potentially impacting our ability to execute corporate transactions efficiently and optimally.
The corporate and securities laws applicable to us are less developed than those governing state-chartered corporations, which may impact our ability to execute corporate transactions efficiently and effectively. Our corporate affairs are governed by the National Bank Act, with related regulations administered by the OCC.
This phenomenon, sometimes referred to as “systemic risk,” may adversely affect financial 16 Table of Contents ZIONS BANCORPORATION, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION AND SUBSIDIARIES intermediaries, such as clearing agencies, clearing houses, banks, securities firms, and exchanges, with which we interact on a daily basis, and therefore, could adversely affect us.
This phenomenon, commonly referred to as “systemic risk,” may adversely affect financial intermediaries such as clearing agencies, clearing houses, banks, securities firms, and exchanges with which we regularly engage, and may therefore negatively impact our operations. Events in the financial services industry during 2023 illustrated this dynamic.

While we and our third-party suppliers have experienced cybersecurity incidents in the past that have not materially impacted our data, customers, or operations, there can be no assurance that future failures, interruptions, or significant security breaches will not occur or that they will be adequately addressed.
While past cybersecurity incidents involving our systems and those of our third-party providers have not resulted in material impacts to our data, customers, or operations, we cannot guarantee that future incidents will not occur or that they will be effectively mitigated. The potential severity and consequences of such events are inherently uncertain.
While these relationships offer benefits, they also present risks. These risks vary based on several factors, such as the type and amount of data our suppliers may access or process, the concentration of services they provide to us, and the national and international locations from which they operate.
While these partnerships offer strategic and operational advantages, they also present a range of risks. These risks vary based on factors including the nature and volume of data accessed or processed by suppliers, the concentration of services they deliver, their exposure to downstream service providers, and the geographic locations—both domestic and international— from which services are provided.
These factors may lead to reduced loan demand, increased credit losses, and lower fee income, among other negative effects. Failure to effectively manage our interest rate risk could adversely affect our results. Net interest income is the largest component of our revenue. Factors beyond our control can significantly influence the interest rate environment and increase our risk.
Failure to adequately manage interest rate risk could have a material adverse impact on our financial results. Net interest income represents the largest component of our total revenue, and its performance is subject to a variety of external factors that can significantly influence the interest rate environment.
Our ability to execute our strategy, provide services, and remain competitive may be compromised if we are unable to recruit or retain qualified personnel, or if employee compensation and benefits costs increase substantially. Bank regulatory agencies have issued regulations and guidance that limit the manner and amount of compensation that banking organizations can provide to employees.
Additionally, recruiting and compensation costs may increase as a result of evolving workplace dynamics, market conditions, economic factors, and regulatory changes. Our ability to successfully execute strategic initiatives, deliver high-quality services, and remain competitive may be adversely affected if we are unable to recruit and retain qualified personnel, or if employee compensation and benefits expenses increase significantly.
