Creating Additional Shareholder Value 34

35 Near - Term Outlook ▪ Expect continuation of positive trends in second half of 2022 driven by further organic balance sheet growth ▪ Loan pipeline continues to build since end of first quarter and should result in continued strong loan growth ➢ Well diversified loan production platform should offset lower demand for CRE loans as rates increase ➢ Unfunded commitments increased 14% in 2Q22 to $802 million, providing another potential catalyst for loan growth ▪ Continued loan growth and NIM expansion expected to generate further increase in net interest income ▪ Relatively stable expense levels as a portion of the cost savings from Teton acquisition are reinvested in new banking talent to support expansion efforts in Colorado, Montana and Arizona ▪ Strength of client base and conservative underwriting should help First Western maintain strong asset quality in a recessionary environment, as it has through prior economic downturns

36 Long - Term Goals to Drive Shareholder Value ▪ Drive to $5 billion in total assets, $25 billion TIM assets through both organic growth and acquisitions ▪ ~50 offices ▪ $7 - 8 million in revenue per office ▪ 60% contribution margin per office ▪ Build footprint, scale and operating leverage with M&A ▪ Capital and earnings accretive ▪ Create, roll out virtual private bank ▪ Robo advisor tied to bank ▪ “Buy up” into expert advice ▪ Upgrade wealth management platform ▪ Fully integrated front end ▪ Sell wholesale TIM services to other banks Our mission is to be the BPBFWWMC – Best Private Bank for the Western Wealth Management Client We believe First Western can be a unique, niche focused regional powerhouse with high fee income and consistent strong earnings from our scalable wealth management platform
