We launched a new nationwide advertising campaign 'Yes, SVB' intended to increase
awareness of SVB's continued presence, ongoing commitment, experienced team and
leadership position helping investors and innovators scale and succeed.

We remain a trusted partner to innovation clients as we have been for 40 years by
providing banking services, debt-financing solutions and industry partnerships to
companies and investors.
▪ Innovation economy fundraising activity remains muted as the dynamic macroeconomic
environment leads to continued lient cash burn and a decline in VC investment.

Our partnerships stretch beyond our wide range of product offerings and include a
collection of intangible knowledge based on our extensive experience that is critical for
successful innovation companies.
We facilitate committed partnership with our clients to promote better outcomes.

▪ We believe the innovation economy is better-positioned today to weather a downturn
than in past cycles.
Capital markets have continued to be volatile in 2023 reducing exit values and leading
many companies to postpone public offerings.
As we have seen in prior slowdowns in the exit markets, including the early 2000s, the
Global Financial Crisis, early 2016 and 2022, a slowdown period typically lasts 12-18
months as VC/PE firms historically jumped in to take advantage of depressed private
company valuations.
