Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Note 1 - Accounting Policies
The consolidated interim financial statements of SunTrust Banks, Inc.
("SunTrust" or "Company") are unaudited. All significant intercompany accounts
and transactions have been eliminated. These financial statements should be read
in conjunction with the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 1999. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year amounts to
conform with the current year presentation.
Note 2 - Acquisitions
For the first six months of 2000, $31.8 million of merger-related charges were
recorded compared to $31.4 million in 1999. These charges included $0.6 million
in accelerated depreciation and amortization based upon estimates of systems
integration timetables, $0.8 million in severance and $30.4 million in system
integration costs. SunTrust expects to record additional merger-related charges
of approximately $10.7 million through the remainder of year 2000.
Note 3 - Derivative Financial Instruments
SunTrust uses derivatives to hedge interest rate exposures by modifying the
interest rate characteristics of related balance sheet instruments. The specific
criteria required for derivatives used as hedges are described below.
Derivatives that do not meet these criteria are carried at market value with
changes in value recognized currently in earnings.
Derivatives used as hedges must be effective at reducing the risk associated
with the exposure being hedged and must be designated as a hedge at the
inception of the derivative contract. Derivatives used for hedging purposes may
include swaps, forwards, futures and options. The interest component associated
with derivatives used as hedges or to modify the interest rate characteristics
of assets and liabilities is recognized over the life of the contract in net
interest income. If a contract is cancelled prior to its termination date, the
cumulative change in the market value of such derivatives is recorded as an
adjustment to the carrying value of the underlying asset or liability and
recognized in net interest income over the expected remaining life of the
related asset or liability. In instances where the underlying instrument is
sold, the fair value of the associated derivative is recognized immediately in
the component of earnings relating to the underlying instrument.

<PAGE>
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) - continued
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities." This statement establishes accounting and
reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative
instruments embedded in other contracts and for hedging activities. It requires
that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities on the
balance sheet and measures those instruments at fair value. This statement could
increase volatility in earnings and other comprehensive income. In June of 1999,
SFAS No. 133 was amended by SFAS No. 137, which delays the effective date of
implementation until fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. SunTrust will
adopt SFAS No. 133 effective January 1, 2001. In June of 2000, SFAS No. 133 was
amended by SFAS 138, which addresses issues related to implementation
difficulties. SunTrust completed an in-depth analysis to determine the effects
of the implementation and currently it is not expected to have a material impact
on SunTrust's financial position or results of operations.
Note 4 - Guaranteed Preferred Beneficial Interests in Debentures
SunTrust has established special purpose trusts, which collectively issued
$1,050 million in trust preferred securities. The proceeds from these issuances,
together with the proceeds of the related issuances of common securities of the
trusts, were invested in junior subordinated deferrable interest debentures of
SunTrust. The sole assets of these special purpose trusts are the debentures.
These debentures rank junior to the senior and subordinated debt of the issuing
company. SunTrust owns all of the common securities of the special purpose
trusts. The preferred securities issued by the trusts rank senior to the trusts'
common securities. The Company's obligations under the debentures, the
indentures, the relevant trust agreements and the guarantees, in the aggregate,
constitute a full and unconditional guarantee by SunTrust of the obligations of
the trusts under the trust preferred securities and rank subordinate and junior
in right of payment to all liabilities of the Company. The trust preferred
securities may be called prior to maturity at the option of SunTrust.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) - continued
Note 7 - Segment Reporting
Effective January 1, 2000, the Company significantly modified management's
internal reporting system with the consolidation of its individual bank
charters. In prior periods, the Company's reportable segments were based on
legal entities that were aligned along geographic regions. With the
consolidation of the bank charters, SunTrust Bank is now one legal entity with
Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama and Mid-Atlantic regions (which includes
Virginia, Maryland and the District of Columbia). As a result of the changes to
the legal entity structure, as well as the changes made to management's internal
system used to evaluate operating segment performance, prior periods have not
been reported because it is not practicable to restate prior period results to
conform to the current reporting methods or to present current year results
based on prior period reportable segments.
The Company's reportable segments as of June 30, 2000 are determined based on
management's internal reporting approach. The reportable segments are comprised
of the four regions of Florida, Georgia, Tennessee (which includes the branches
in Alabama) and Mid-Atlantic, in addition to Corporate and Investment Banking
and Parent/Other. Each geographic operating segment provides a wide array of
banking services to consumer and commercial customers and earns interest income
from loans made to customers. In addition, these geographic segments recognize
certain fees related to trust, deposit, lending and other services provided to
customers. The Corporate and Investment Banking segment consists of corporate
banking for the large corporate and identified industry specialties, as well as
SunTrust Equitable Securities and SunTrust Leasing. The Parent/Other segment
consists primarily of the Company's credit card bank and nonbank subsidiaries as
well as certain treasury and corporate expenses. The Treasury/Reconciling Items
Segment includes the net impact of transfer pricing on loan and deposit
balances, the cost of external debt, gains and losses on the investment
portfolio, income taxes and other amounts necessary to reconcile the Company's
internal management accounting practices described below to the consolidated
financial statements.
Unlike financial accounting, there is no comprehensive authoritative body of
guidance for management accounting equivalent to generally accepted accounting
principles. Therefore, the performance of the segments is not comparable with
SunTrust's consolidated results or with similar information presented by any
other financial institution. In addition, operating segment results may be
restated in the future as management's structure, information needs, and
reporting systems evolve.
The Company uses a transfer pricing process to aid in assessing operating
segment performance. This process involves matched maturity transfer pricing of
interest rates for assets and liabilities to determine a contribution to the net
interest margin on a segment basis. Currently, the Company does not allocate
corporate equity to the reportable segments. As a result, the difference between
the matched maturity transfer pricing and the consolidated net interest margin,
as well as the net interest margin benefit provided from equity are treated as
reconciling items. In addition, the Company uses a credit risk premium approach
to aid in assessing operating segment performance. This approach recognizes the
cost of the credit losses that SunTrust can expect over time on its loans
through a charge against earnings. The premium is judgmental but based on rates
derived from the Company's loss migration history for various loan categories as
well as the internal credit ratings of individual loans in certain of those loan
categories. The difference between the credit risk premium charged to the
segments and the Company's consolidated provision for loan losses is included as
a reconciling item within noninterest expense. The segment results also include
certain intercompany transactions that were recorded at cost. All intercompany
transactions have been eliminated to determine the consolidated balances. No
transactions with a single customer contributed 10% or more to the Company's
total revenue.
The following tables disclose selected financial information for SunTrust's
reportable business segments for the three months and six months ended June 30,
2000.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW
SunTrust Banks, Inc. is a financial holding company with its headquarters in
Atlanta, Georgia. SunTrust's principal banking subsidiary, SunTrust Bank, offers
a full line of financial services for consumers and businesses through its
branches located primarily in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Maryland, Tennessee,
Virginia and the District of Columbia. In addition to traditional deposit,
credit and trust and investment services offered by SunTrust Bank, other
SunTrust subsidiaries provide mortgage banking, commercial and auto leasing,
credit-related insurance, asset management, securities brokerage and investment
banking services.
SunTrust has 1,151 full-service branches, including supermarket branches, and
continues to leverage technology to provide customers the convenience of banking
on the internet, through 1,981 automated teller machines and via twenty-four
hour telebanking.
The following analysis of the financial performance of SunTrust for the second
quarter of 2000 should be read in conjunction with the financial statements,
notes and other information contained in this document. SunTrust has made, and
may continue to make, various forward-looking statements with respect to
financial and business matters. These forward-looking statements are subject to
numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties, all of which may change over
time. The actual results that are achieved could differ significantly from the
forward-looking statements contained in this document.
The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2000 are not
indicative of the results that may be attained for any other period. In this
discussion, net interest income and the net interest margin are presented on a
taxable-equivalent basis and the ratios are presented on an annualized basis.
EARNINGS ANALYSIS
SunTrust reported record operating earnings of $329.3 million and $657.6 million
for the second quarter and first six months of 2000, an increase of 6.7% and
9.5% compared with $308.5 million and $600.6 million in the same periods of 1999
(excluding after-tax merger-related charges of $11.8 million, $20.7 million,
$14.8 million and $25.2 million for the second quarter and the first six months
of 2000 and 1999, respectively). Diluted earnings per share, adjusted for merger
charges, grew 14.0% to $1.09 and 16.0% to $2.16 from $0.96 and $1.86 in the same
periods last year. Reported net income was $317.5 million, or $1.05 per diluted
share for the second quarter and $636.9 million, or $2.09 per diluted share for
the first six months of 2000. Net income growth for the first six months of 2000
compared to 1999 was impacted by lower loan loss provision resulting from the
fourth quarter credit card sale, lower expense levels, and a lower effective tax
rate.

(1) Interest income includes loan fees of $32.8, $31.7, and $34.7 in the
quarters ended June 30, March 31, 2000, and June 30,1999 and $65.3 and $68.1 in
the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999. Nonaccrual loans are included in
average balances and income on such loans, if recognized, is recorded on a cash
basis.
(2) Interest income includes the effects of taxable-equivalent adjustments
(reduced by the nondeductible portion of interest expense) using a federal
income tax rate of 35% and, where applicable, state income taxes, to increase
tax-exempt interest income to a taxable-equivalent basis. The net

Interest Rate Risk. The normal course of business activity exposes SunTrust to
interest rate risk. Fluctuations in interest rates may result in changes in the
fair market value of the Company's financial instruments, cash flows and net
interest income. SunTrust's asset/liability management process manages the
Company's interest rate risk position. The objective of this process is the
optimization of the Company's financial position, liquidity and net interest
income, while limiting the volatility to net interest income from changes in
interest rates.
SunTrust uses a simulation modeling process to measure interest rate risk and
evaluate potential strategies. These simulations incorporate assumptions
regarding balance sheet growth and mix, pricing, and the repricing and maturity
characteristics of the existing and projected balance sheet. Other
interest-rate-related risks such as prepayment, basis and option risk are also
considered. Simulation results quantify interest rate risk under various
interest rate scenarios. Senior management regularly reviews the overall
interest rate risk position and develops and implements strategies to manage the
risk.
Management estimates the Company's net interest income for the next twelve
months would decline 1.0% under a gradual increase in interest rates of 100
basis points, versus the projection under stable rates. Net interest income
would increase by less than 1.0% under a gradual decrease in interest rates of
100 basis points, versus the projection under stable rates.
The projections of interest rate risk do not necessarily include certain actions
that management may undertake to manage this risk in response to anticipated
changes in interest rates.
Net Interest Income/Margin. SunTrust's net interest margin was 3.63% for the
first six months of 2000, a decrease of 29 basis points from the first six
months of 1999, primarily attributable to the rising rate environment, the sale
of the Company's $1.5 billion higher yielding consumer credit card portfolio in
the fourth quarter of 1999 and additional purchases under the SunTrust stock
repurchase program. Compared to the first six months of 1999, the rate on
earning assets increased 37 basis points to 7.63% in the first six months of
2000 and the rate on interest bearing liabilities increased 76 basis points to
4.80% primarily due to the rising rates on purchased liabilities and increased
reliance on purchased liabilities to fund growth.
Interest income that SunTrust was unable to recognize on nonperforming loans had
a negative impact of 2 and 1 basis points on the net interest margin in the
first six months of 2000 and 1999, respectively.
Noninterest Income. Noninterest income in the second quarter and first six
months of 2000, adjusted to exclude the effect of securities gains and losses,
decreased $6.6 million, or 1.5% and $5.1 million, or 0.8%, from the comparable
periods last year. The decrease primarily relates to mortgage production income
which decreased $62.0 million, or 61.3% for the first six months of 2000, due to
a drop in refinancing activities resulting from the rising rate environment.
Included in credit card and other fees is debit card interchange income of $14.6
million and $27.9 million for second quarter and the first six months of 2000
compared to $18.8 million and $33.7 million in the same periods of 1999. Trust
income, SunTrust's largest source of noninterest income, increased $3.0 million,
or 1.2% for the first six months of 2000 compared to the same period last year.
Net new businesss in 2000 has not grown as much as the same period in 1999, and
the market value of trust assets under management is down to $92.8 billion in
June 2000, from $95.5 billion in June 1999. The Company expects that lower than
historical growth rates will continue throughout the year 2000.
Other income in the second quarter of 2000 includes $2.5 million in net gains on
the sale of mortgage and student loans. The third quarter of 1999 includes a
$6.8 million gain on the sale of student loans. The second quarter of 1999
includes an $8.5 million gain on the sale of student loans. In addition, the
Company incurred securities losses of $114.9 million during the fourth quarter
of 1999 primarily related to a portfolio repositioning program undertaken by the
Company.

Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense decreased $16.1 million, or 2.2% and
$35.5 million, or 2.4% in the second quarter and first six months of 2000
compared to the same periods last year. Personnel expenses, consisting of
salaries, other compensation and employee benefits, decreased $24.1 million, or
5.6% and $33.3 million, or 3.9% from the earlier periods. The reduction in other
compensation of $15.8 compared to the same quarter last year is due to
adjustments of business line incentive plan expense which occurred during the
second quarter. The efficiency ratio in the second quarter of 2000 improved to
58.87%, a decrease from 58.95% in the second quarter of 1999. In 1999,
merger-related expenses included additional severance, accelerated depreciation
and system conversion costs. In the second quarter of 2000, these merger-related
expenses primarily related to accelerated depreciation and miscellaneous
integration costs. Merger-related expenses were $18.2 million and $13.6 million
for the second and first quarters of 2000 and $7.1 million, $7.1 million,$17.6
million and $13.8 million for the fourth, third, second and first quarters of
1999, respectively.

Provision for Loan Losses. The SunTrust Allowance Committee meets at least
quarterly to assess the adequacy of the allowance, analyze provision and
charge-off trends and affirm allowance methodology. As a result of this review
process, the committee deemed the allowance as of June 30, 2000 to be adequate
to cover losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The adequacy of the allowance is
evaluated based on historical loss rates, specifically analyzed loans and other
internal and external factors that affect credit risk. These other factors, such
as the rising interest rate environment of the last six quarters, increasing
consumer debt levels, recent volatility in the financial markets, and known
current events that affect the Company's primary market area, are key elements
in the assessment of the adequacy of the allowance because of their impact on
borrowers' repayment capacity.
Charge-offs in the second quarter of 2000 were lower than in the same period
last year, mainly due to the sale of the consumer credit card portfolio. The
Company anticipates that higher levels of problem loans in the corporate market,
particularly in the industry segments referenced below, will lead to a slight
increase in net charge-offs during the rest of 2000. Nonperforming loans
increased from June 30, 1999, primarily due to structural changes in the
healthcare industry. Other industry sectors, however, are beginning to feel
pressure from rising interest rates and the softening economy, leading SunTrust
to anticipate further increases in nonperforming loans during the remainder of
the year. Besides healthcare, the Company is concerned about weakening in
textiles and agri-business, particularly poultry products.
SunTrust lowered the provision for loan losses in the first six months of 2000
to $50.0 million from $90.8 million in the same period last year. This reduction
in the provision is almost entirely due to the sale of the Company's consumer
credit card portfolio in November 1999. The credit card portfolio previously
accounted for up to $20 million in net charge-offs and provision expense each
quarter. The ratio of net charge-offs to average loans dropped to .14% from .26%
one year ago. Total provision exceeded net charge-offs by $3.2 million.
At June 30, 2000, SunTrust's allowance for loan losses totaled $874.5 million
which was 1.22% of period loans and 309.6% of total nonperforming loans. Both
ratios decreased from the second quarter of 1999. As of June 30, 1999, the
allowance totaled $941.4 million, or 1.50% of period loans and 392.9% of total
nonperforming loans. These decreases are primarily attributable to the sale of
the consumer credit card portfolio, which had a relatively high level of
allowance for loan losses and no nonperforming loans.

Nonperforming Assets. Nonperforming assets consist of nonaccrual loans,
restructured loans and other real estate owned. Nonperforming assets have
increased 10.9%, or $30.0 million since December 31, 1999 and increased 14.2%,
or $37.9 million since June 30, 1999. Much of the increase since June 30, 1999
occurred in healthcare credits, an industry sector that continues to experience
structural change and intense market pressures.
Interest income on nonaccrual loans, if recognized, is recorded using the cash
basis method of accounting. During the first six months of 2000, an additional
$7.4 million of interest income would have been recorded if all nonaccrual and
restructured loans had been accruing interest according to their original
contract terms. Interest income recognized on nonperforming loans using the cash
basis in the first six months of 2000 was $7.7 million.

Loans. Total loans at June 30, 2000 were $71.5 billion, an increase of $8.5
billion or 13.6% from June 30, 1999. The Company recorded significant loan
growth in commercial loans and other consumer loans, up 21.9% and 19.6% from
June 30, 1999, respectively, while continuing to realize steady growth in its
residential mortgage portfolio (up 11.3%), as customers shifted from fixed rate
to adjustable rate mortgages. Of the $20.3 billion in residential mortgages at
June 30, 2000, $2.1 billion were home equity loans, which also demonstrated
significant growth (14.3%) in the last twelve months. The drop in credit card
loans from June 30, 1999 reflects te sale of the Company's $1.5 billion consumer
credit card portfolio during the fourth quarter of 1999.
Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes was $148.1 million and $321.5 in
the second quarter and first six months of 2000 compared to $159.3 million and
$309.5 in the same periods last year. This represents a 34% effective tax rate
for the six months ended June 30, 2000, compared to 35% for the same period last
year.
Securities available for sale. Securities in the investment portfolio are
classified as available-for-sale and are carried at market value with unrealized
gains and losses, net of any tax effect, included in accumulated other
comprehensive income and added to or deducted from realized shareholders' equity
to determine total shareholders' equity. The investment portfolio continues to
be proactively managed to optimize yield over an entire interest rate cycle
while providing liquidity and managing market risk. The portfolio yield
increased from an average of 6.31% in the second quarter of 1999 to 6.77% in the
second quarter of 2000 primarily due to the repositioning of the securities
portfolio during the fourth quarter of 1999 to take advantage of higher market
rates.
At June 30, 2000 the portfolio size (measured at amortized cost) decreased by
$800 million from December 31, 2000. At June 30, 2000, approximately 3% of the
portfolio consisted of U.S. Treasury securities, 15% U.S. government agency
securities, 47% mortgage-backed securities, 8% asset-backed securities, 20%
corporate bonds, 3% municipal securities and 4% other securities. Most of
SunTrust's holdings in mortgage-backed securities are backed by U.S. government
or federal agency guarantees limiting the credit risk associated with the
mortgage loans. At June 30, 2000, the carrying value of the securities portfolio
was $2.4 billion over amortized cost, consisting of a $2.8 billion unrealized
gain on SunTrust's investment in common stock of The Coca-Cola Company and other
unrealized net losses. The market value of this common stock investment
increased $507.0 million during the second quarter of 2000, which did not affect
the net income of SunTrust, but was included in comprehensive income.

Liquidity Management. Liquidity is managed to ensure there is sufficient cash
flow to satisfy demand for credit, deposit withdrawals and attractive investment
opportunities. A large, stable core deposit base, strong capital position and
excellent credit ratings are the solid foundation for SunTrust's liquidity
position. Liquidity is enhanced by an investment portfolio structured to provide
liquidity as needed. It is also strengthened by ready access to a diversified
base of regional and national wholesale funding sources including fed funds
purchased, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, negotiable
certificates of deposit and offshore deposits, as well as a bank note program,
commercial paper issuance by the Parent Company, and Federal Home Loan Bank
advances.
Total deposits consist of consumer deposits, commercial deposits and purchased
deposits. The purchased deposits include foreign and brokered deposits. Total
deposits as of June 30, 2000 grew $8.3 billion, or 13.8%, from June 30, 1999.
Consumer and commercial deposits decreased $443.9 million, or 0.8% while
purchased deposits grew $8.8 billion, or 165.2%. Consumer and commercial
deposits represented 80.7% of average deposits for the second quarter of 2000
compared to 92.8% for the same period of 1999.
Net borrowed funds, which primarily include short term funds purchased and sold,
purchased deposits, other short term borrowings and long term debt, were $32.8
billion for the second quarter of 2000 compared with $26.2 billion for the same
period in 1999. The increase is primarily due to the Company's increased use of
purchased deposits and long term debt. Net borrowed funds were 37.2% of average
earning assets for the second quarter of 2000 as compared to 32.2% in the same
period a year ago.
On April 28, 2000, the Company issued $300 million of 7.75% subordinated notes
due May 1, 2010. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of
the subordinated notes for general corporate purposes.
Derivatives. SunTrust enters into various derivative contracts to meet the
financial needs of its customers, generate revenue through trading activities,
and to manage interest rate sensitivity for the bank. These derivative
instruments include futures and forward contracts, interest rate swaps, options,
interest rate caps and floors, and swaptions.

When acting in a dealer capacity for customers, SunTrust will enter into
offsetting positions to eliminate exposure to interest rate and market risk.
Derivative instruments used to manage the bank's interest rate sensitivity and
the generation of revenue through its trading activities as of June 30, 2000 are
shown in Table 8.

Capital Resources. Consistent with the objective of operating a sound financial
organization, SunTrust maintains capital ratios well above regulatory
requirements. The rate of internal capital generation has been adequate to
support asset growth. However, the Company's capital ratios have experienced a
decline over the last five quarters primarily resulting from additional
purchases under the SunTrust stock repurchase program and a decline in the
market value of SunTrust's investment in common stock of The Coca-Cola Company.
Table 9 presents capital ratios for the five most recent quarters.
Regulatory agencies measure capital adequacy within a framework that makes
capital requirements sensitive to the risk profiles of individual banking
companies. The guidelines define capital as either Tier 1 (primarily
shareholders' equity, as defined to include certain debt obligations) or Tier 2
(to include certain other debt obligations and a portion of the allowance for
loan losses, and 45% of the unrealized gains on equity securities). SunTrust is
24
<PAGE>
subject to a minimum Tier 1 capital ratio (Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted
assets) of 4%, total capital ratio (Tier 1 plus Tier 2 to risk-weighted assets)
of 8% and Tier 1 leverage ratio (Tier 1 to average quarterly assets) of 3%. To
be considered a "well capitalized" institution, the Tier 1 capital ratio, the
total capital ratio, and the Tier 1 leverage ratio must equal or exceed 6%, 10%
and 5%, respectively. SunTrust is committed to remaining well capitalized.
On August 10, 1999, the Board of Directors authorized the purchase of up to 15
million shares of SunTrust common stock. In 2000, SunTrust purchased 1,159,200
shares of SunTrust common stock to complete the August 10, 1999 authorization.
On February 8, 2000, the Board of Directors authorized the purchase of up to 12
million shares of SunTrust common stock. As of August 2, 2000, SunTrust has
purchased 10,105,542 shares of common stock under this authorization. On August
8, 2000, the Board of Directors authorized the purchase of up to 10 million
shares of SunTrust common stock of the Company, including 1,894,458 shares
remaining under the authorization to purchase shares of February 8, 2000.
