The information contained in this report should be read in conjunction with WesBanco’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 and documents subsequently filed by WesBanco with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) including WesBanco’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, which are available at the SEC’s website, www.sec.gov or at WesBanco’s website, www.WesBanco.com. Investors are cautioned that forward-looking statements, which are not historical fact, involve risks and uncertainties, including those detailed in WesBanco’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC under “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A. Such statements are subject to important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by such statements, including, without limitation, changes in interest rates, spreads on earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, and associated interest rate sensitivity; sources of liquidity available to WesBanco and its related subsidiary operations; potential future credit losses and the credit risk of commercial, real estate, and consumer loan customers and their borrowing activities; actions of the Federal Reserve Board, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, the SEC, the Financial Institution Regulatory Authority, the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board, the Securities Investors Protection Corporation, and other regulatory bodies; potential legislative and federal and state regulatory actions and reform, including, without limitation, the impact of the implementation of the Dodd-Frank Act; adverse decisions of federal and state courts; fraud, scams and schemes of third parties; cyber-security breaches; competitive conditions in the financial services industry; rapidly changing technology affecting financial services; marketability of debt instruments and corresponding impact on fair value adjustments; and/or other external developments materially impacting WesBanco’s operational and financial performance. WesBanco does not assume any duty to update forward-looking statements. While forward-looking statements reflect our good-faith beliefs, they are not guarantees of future performance. All forward-looking statements are necessarily only estimates of future results. Accordingly, actual results may differ materially from those expressed in or contemplated by the particular forward-looking statement, and, therefore, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events or circumstances, except as required by applicable law. In addition to the results of operations presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), WesBanco's management uses, and this presentation contains or references, certain non-GAAP financial measures, such as pre-tax pre-provision income, tangible common equity/tangible assets; net income excluding after-tax restructuring and merger-related expenses and excluding after-tax day one provision for credit losses on acquired loans; efficiency ratio; return on average assets; and return on average tangible equity. WesBanco believes these financial measures provide information useful to investors in understanding our operational performance and business and performance trends which facilitate comparisons with the performance of others in the financial services industry. Although WesBanco believes that these non-GAAP financial measures enhance investors' understanding of WesBanco's business and performance, these non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered an alternative to GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures contained therein should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and analysis as presented in the Annual Report on Form 10-K as well as the unaudited financial statements and analyses as presented in the Quarterly Reports on Forms 10-Q for WesBanco and its subsidiaries, as well as other filings that the company has made with the SEC.

Q2 2026 NIM of 3.63% improved 4 bp YoY, primarily due to lower funding costs NIM increased 6 bp on a sequential quarter basis mainly due to asset repricing and 3 bp of accelerated mark accretion from acquired loan payoffs Deposit funding costs, including non-interest bearing deposits, were 178 bp and decreased 6 bp YoY and increased just 1 bp QoQ Period end FHLB borrowings of $1.4 billion decreased $400 million YoY but increased $375 million QoQ as loan growth outpaced deposit growth, reflecting accelerating growth in targeted expansion markets As of 6/30/2026, 89% have 2026 maturities, with an average rate of 3.90% NIM Benefited from Management of Funding Costs Q2 2026 Net Interest Margin (NIM)

Note: OREO = other real estate owned; AUM = assets under management; securities account values include annuities Record Fee Income Levels Across Multiple Categories Q2 2026 Non-Interest Income Non-interest income increased 22.0% YoY due primarily to higher net swap and valuation income, service charges on deposits, and other income Achieved record fee income levels across securities brokerage, digital banking, and service charges on deposits Gross swap fees were $2.8 million, compared to $1.4 million last year Swap fair market valuation adjustment was $0.3 million, compared to a loss of $0.7 million, in the prior year period Service charges on deposits reflect increased general spending and higher transaction volumes from our larger customer base, as well as an increase in monthly fees that took effect during June Other income included a non-recurring $4.8 million gain related to the freezing of future service for actively employed participants in the pension plan Mortgage banking income decreased YoY primarily due to more mortgage volume going into portfolio loans

Expenses Reflect Expansion Markets and Discretionary Cost Control Q2 2026 Non-Interest Expense Non-interest expense, excluding merger and restructuring charges, increased 1.8% YoY primarily due to higher salaries and wages from a full quarter of expansion market hiring offset by discretionary expense management Salaries and wages and employee benefits expense increased due to recent hiring efforts, primarily in Florida, and bonus accrual adjustments FDIC insurance expense decreased due to a lower assessment rate associated with our improved financial ratios Equipment and software, which was consistent with the last several quarters, decreased YoY due to the cost of operating two core systems in the prior year related to the PFC acquisition Amortization of intangible assets, which was consistent with the last couple quarters, decreased YoY due to the core deposit intangible asset that was created from the acquisition of PFC in the prior year Restructuring and merger-related expenses decreased from the prior year period, which included costs associated with the closing of the PFC acquisition

The allowance for credit losses on loans was $217.8 million at 6/30/2026, which provided a coverage ratio of 1.12% Excluded from the allowance for credit losses and the related coverage ratio is a remaining unaccreted discount on purchased loans from acquisitions representing 1.41% of total portfolio loans The second quarter provision for credit losses of $9.2 million is primarily due to higher loan balances Non-Depository Financial Institution (NDFI) exposure <$55 million No direct exposure to technology and software firms or data centers and related infrastructure projects Allowance Coverage Ratio of 1.12% Q2 2026 Current Expected Credit Loss (CECL) Note: ACL at 6/30/2026 excludes off-balance sheet credit exposures of $7.7 million
