Summary: Management's commentary and new slides reiterated much of what we've heard in

recent months, but we think the updated guidance is generally positive considering the faster

loan growth and expense synergies being realized YTD. 2Q implied PPNR is ~2% below us and

the Street but FY was reiterated. Underlying the guidance is slightly lower BHG income due to

more securitization and slightly lower expenses. NII appears to be reiterated with growth

tracking better YTD, but NIM is tracking slightly lower. The final systems conversion is still slated

for March 2027 with planning and testing still on track. Hiring pipelines and customer sentiment
