FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND NON-GAAP INFORMATION
Forward-Looking Statements
This report, including material incorporated into it, contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). Forward-looking statements pertain to FHN's beliefs, plans, goals, expectations, and estimates. Forward-looking statements are not a representation of historical information, but instead pertain to future operations, strategies, financial results, or other developments. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “should,” “is likely,” “will,” “going forward,” and other expressions that indicate future events and trends.
Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon estimates and assumptions that are inherently subject to significant business, operational, economic, and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond FHN’s control, and many of which, with respect to future business decisions and actions (including acquisitions and divestitures), are subject to change and could cause FHN’s actual future results and outcomes to differ materially from those contemplated or implied by forward-looking statements or historical performance. Examples of uncertainties and contingencies include, among other important factors:
global, general and local economic and business conditions, including economic recession or depression;
the stability or volatility of values and activity in the residential housing and commercial real estate markets;
potential requirements for FHN to repurchase, or compensate for losses from, previously sold or securitized mortgages or securities based on such mortgages;
potential claims alleging mortgage servicing failures, individually, on a class basis, or as master servicer of securitized loans;
potential claims relating to participation in government programs, especially lending or other financial services programs;
expectations of and actual timing and amount of interest rate movements, including the slope and shape of the yield curve, which can have a significant impact on a financial services institution;
market and monetary fluctuations, including fluctuations in mortgage markets;
the financial condition of borrowers and other counterparties;
competition within and outside the financial services industry;
the occurrence of natural or man-made disasters, global pandemics, conflicts, or terrorist attacks, or other adverse external events;
effectiveness and cost-efficiency of FHN’s hedging practices;
fraud, theft, or other incursions through conventional, electronic, or other means directly or indirectly affecting FHN or its clients, business counterparties, or competitors;
the ability to adapt products and services to changing industry standards and client preferences;
risks inherent in originating, selling, servicing, and holding loans and loan-based assets, including prepayment risks, pricing concessions, fluctuation in U.S. housing and other real estate prices, fluctuation of collateral values, and changes in client profiles;
changes in the regulation of the U.S. financial services industry;
changes in laws, regulations, and administrative actions, including executive orders, whether or not specific to the financial services industry;
changes in accounting policies, standards, and interpretations;
evolving capital and liquidity standards under applicable regulatory rules;
accounting policies and processes that require management to make estimates about matters that are uncertain;
any adverse effect on FHN resulting from the termination of the TD Transaction;
the outcome of any legal proceedings that have been or may be instituted against FHN, including litigation against FHN or its directors or officers related to the TD Transaction or the TD Merger Agreement;
reputational risk and potential adverse reactions or changes to business or employee relationships, including those resulting from the termination of the TD Transaction;
deposit withdrawals and volatility and declines in the price of the common stock as a result of market stress in the regional banking sector;

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND NON-GAAP INFORMATION
the impact of any assessments made by the FDIC in connection with the resolutions of Silicon Valley Bank, Signature Bank, and First Republic Bank; and
other factors that may affect the future results of FHN.
FHN assumes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements that are made in this report or in any other statement, release, report, or filing from time to time. Actual results could differ and FHN’s estimates and expectations could change, possibly materially, because of one or more factors, including those factors listed above or presented elsewhere in this report or those factors listed in material incorporated by reference into this report. In evaluating forward-looking statements and assessing FHN’s prospects, readers of this report should carefully consider the factors mentioned above along with the additional risk and uncertainty factors discussed in Item 1A of Part II of this report and in the forepart, and in Items 1, 1A, and 7, of FHN’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, among others.

2Q23 FORM 10-Q REPORT

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND NON-GAAP INFORMATION
Non-GAAP Information
Certain measures included in this report are “non-GAAP,” meaning they are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and also are not codified in U.S. banking regulations currently applicable to FHN. Although other entities may use calculation methods that differ from those used by FHN for non-GAAP measures, FHN’s management believes such measures are relevant to understanding the financial condition, capital position, and financial results of FHN and its business segments. Non-GAAP measures are reported to FHN’s management and Board of Directors through various internal reports.

The non-GAAP measures presented in this report are: pre-provision net revenue, return on average tangible common equity, tangible common equity to tangible assets, adjusted tangible common equity to risk-weighted assets, and tangible book value per common share. Table I.2.25 appearing in the MD&A (Item 2 of Part I) of this report provides a reconciliation of non-GAAP items presented in this report to the most comparable GAAP presentation.

Presentation of regulatory measures, even those which are not GAAP, provide a meaningful base for comparability to other financial institutions subject to the same regulations as FHN, as demonstrated by their use by banking regulators in reviewing capital adequacy of financial institutions. Although not GAAP terms, these regulatory measures are not considered “non-GAAP” under U.S. financial reporting rules as long as their presentation conforms to regulatory standards. Regulatory measures used in this report include: common equity tier 1 capital, generally defined as common equity less goodwill, other intangibles, and certain other required regulatory deductions; tier 1 capital, generally defined as the sum of core capital (including common equity and instruments that cannot be redeemed at the option of the holder) adjusted for certain items under risk based capital regulations; and risk-weighted assets, which is a measure of total on- and off-balance sheet assets adjusted for credit and market risk, used to determine regulatory capital ratios.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Note 1—Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all information and notes necessary for complete financial statements in accordance with GAAP. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all significant adjustments, consisting of normal and recurring items, considered necessary for fair presentation. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with FHN's audited consolidated financial statements and notes in FHN's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. Operating results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.
All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain amounts reported in prior years have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. See the Glossary of Acronyms and Terms included in this Report for terms used herein.
TD Transaction
As previously disclosed, on February 27, 2022, FHN entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the TD Merger Agreement) with The Toronto-Dominion Bank, a Canadian chartered bank (TD), and certain TD subsidiaries. On May 4, 2023, FHN and TD mutually terminated the TD Merger Agreement. Under the terms of the termination agreement, TD made a $200 million cash payment to FHN, in addition to the $25 million fee reimbursement due to FHN pursuant to the TD Merger Agreement.
Merger and integration planning expenses related to the transactions associated with the TD Merger Agreement (TD Transaction) are recorded in FHN’s Corporate segment. Expenses recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 were $30 million and $51 million, respectively. Expenses recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 were $25 million and $34 million, respectively.
Accounting Changes With Extended Transition Periods
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting” which provides several optional expedients and exceptions to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting. The provisions of ASU 2020-04
primarily affect 1) contract modifications (e.g., loans, leases, debt, and derivatives) made in anticipation that a reference rate (e.g., LIBOR) will be discontinued and 2) the application of hedge accounting for existing relationships affected by those modifications. The provisions of ASU 2020-04 are effective upon release and apply only to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. Including the adoption of ASU 2022-06 (discussed below), the expedients and exceptions provided by ASU 2020-04 do not apply to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated after December 31, 2024, except for hedging relationships existing as of December 31, 2024, that an entity has elected certain optional expedients for and that are retained through the end of the hedging relationship.
FHN identified contracts affected by reference rate reform, developed modification plans for those contracts and implemented those modifications before the last quotation of LIBOR on June 30, 2023. FHN elected to utilize the optional expedients and exceptions provided by ASU 2020-04 for contract modifications that immediately converted the reference rate within each contract. FHN also elected that revisions to contractual fallback provisions, including modifications in accordance with the provisions of Regulation ZZ, did not require evaluation for modification accounting. Additionally, FHN elected that the revisions to derivative contracts implemented by central clearinghouses to convert centrally cleared derivative contracts from LIBOR to SOFR plus an appropriate spread adjustment were not considered changes requiring assessment for modification accounting.
During the transition period, for cash flow hedges that reference 1-Month USD LIBOR, FHN applied expedients related to 1) the assumption of probability of cash flows when reference rates are changed on hedged items 2) avoiding dedesignation when critical terms (i.e., reference rates) change and 3) the allowed assumption of shared risk exposure for hedged items. Additionally, for its cash flow hedges that reference 1-Month Term SOFR, FHN applied expedients related to 1) the allowed assumption of shared risk exposure for hedged items and 2) multiple allowed assumptions of conformity between hedged items and the hedging instrument when assessing effectiveness. FHN continued to utilize these expedients and exceptions through the final cash flows affected by the quotation of LIBOR.
In accordance with the provisions of ASU 2020-04, effective immediately after the end of the transition period for its cash flow hedges (i.e., no more cash flows

2Q23 FORM 10-Q REPORT

PART I, ITEM 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1—BASIS OF PRESENTATION & ACCOUNTING POLICIES
were affected by LIBOR), FHN elected that the cessation of effectiveness assessments under the transition guidance and subsequent initiation of hedge effectiveness assessments under ASC 815 did not require dedesignation of the hedge relationships.
In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06, "Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848" which extends the transition window for ASU 2020-04 from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024, consistent with key USD LIBOR tenors continuing to be published through June 30, 2023.
In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, "Scope" to expand the scope of ASU 2020-04 to apply to certain contract modifications that were implemented in October 2020 by derivative clearinghouses for the use of the Secured Overnight Funding Rate (SOFR) in discounting, margining and price alignment for centrally cleared derivatives, including derivatives utilized in hedging relationships. ASU 2021-01 also applies to derivative contracts affected by the change in discounting convention regardless of whether they are centrally cleared (i.e., bi-lateral contracts can also be modified) and regardless of whether they reference LIBOR. ASU 2021-01 was effective immediately upon issuance with retroactive application permitted. FHN elected to retroactively apply the provisions of ASU 2021-01 because FHN's centrally cleared derivatives were affected by the change in discounting convention and because FHN has other bi-lateral derivative contracts that may be modified to conform to the use of SOFR for discounting. Adoption did not have a significant effect on FHN's reported financial condition or results of operations.
Summary of Accounting Changes

ASU 2022-01

In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-01, "Fair Value Hedging - Portfolio Layer Method", which will expand FHN's ability to hedge the benchmark interest rate risk of portfolios of financial interests (or beneficial interests) in a fair value hedge. The provisions of ASU 2022-01 also permit FHN to apply the same portfolio hedging method to both prepayable and non-prepayable financial assets, namely by expanding the use of the "portfolio layer" method to non-prepayable financial assets. ASU 2022-01 also permits multiple hedged layers to be designated as a single closed portfolio to achieve hedge accounting. Additionally, the ASU requires that basis adjustments must be maintained on the closed portfolio of assets as a whole, and not allocated to individual assets for active portfolio layer method hedges. ASU 2022-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. FHN may utilize the provisions of ASU 2022-01 in its future hedging strategies.
ASU 2022-02

In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-02, “Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures” that eliminates current TDR recognition and measurement guidance and instead requires the Company to evaluate whether the modification represents a new loan or a continuation of an existing loan (which is consistent with the accounting for other loan modifications). The provisions of ASU 2022-02 also enhance existing disclosure requirements and introduces new disclosures related to certain modifications made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. The provisions of this ASU also require FHN to disclose current period gross write-offs of loans and leases by year of origination.
ASU 2022-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For the transition method related to the recognition and measurement of TDRs, FHN elected to apply the modified retrospective transition effective January 1, 2023, resulting in a cumulative-effect reduction in ALLL of $6 million and an increase to retained earnings of $4 million, net of tax. The disclosure provisions of ASU 2022-02 are applied prospectively and presented in Note 3 – Loans and Leases and Note 4 – Allowance for Credit Losses.
Accounting Changes Issued But Not Currently Effective

ASU 2023-02

In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-02, “Accounting for Investments in Tax Credit Structures Using the Proportional Amortization Method” which permits investors to elect to account for their tax equity investments, regardless of the tax credit program from which the income tax credits are received, using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met. The proportional amortization method results in the cost of the investment being amortized in proportion to the income tax credits and other income tax benefits received, with the amortization of the investment and the income tax credits being presented net in the income statement as a component of income tax provision (benefit). Prior to ASU 2023-02, the proportional amortization method was only available to qualifying low income housing equity investments. An investor is required to make an accounting policy election to apply the proportional amortization method on a tax-credit-program-by-tax-credit-program basis. An investor that applies the proportional amortization method to qualifying tax equity investments must account for the receipt of the investment tax credits using the flow-through method, even if the entity applies the deferral method for other investment tax credits received. ASU 2023-02 also requires specific disclosures that must be applied to all investments that generate income tax credits and other income tax benefits from a tax credit

program for which the entity has elected to apply the proportional amortization method.
ASU 2023-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for all entities in any interim period. If ASU 2023-02 is adopted in an interim period, it must be adopted as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. Adoption of ASU 2023-02 is applied on either a modified retrospective (cumulative catch up) or a retrospective (representment of prior years) basis. FHN is assessing 1) the applicability of ASU 2023-02 to its tax credit investments and 2) whether to elect the proportional amortization method for qualifying investments.

PART I, ITEM 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 2—INVESTMENT SECURITIES
FHN has evaluated all AFS debt securities that were in unrealized loss positions in accordance with its accounting policy for recognition of credit losses. No AFS debt securities were determined to have credit losses. Total AIR not included in the fair value or amortized cost basis of AFS debt securities was $33 million and $32 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Consistent with FHN's review of the related securities, there were no credit-related write downs of AIR for AFS debt securities during the reporting periods. Additionally, for AFS debt securities with unrealized losses, FHN does not intend to sell them, and it is more likely than not that FHN will not be required to sell them prior to recovery. Therefore, no write downs of these investments to fair value occurred during the reporting periods. There were no transfers to or from AFS or HTM during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2023.
For HTM securities, an allowance for credit losses is required to absorb estimated lifetime credit losses. Total AIR not included in the fair value or amortized cost basis of HTM debt securities was $3 million as of both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. FHN has assessed the risk of credit loss and has determined that no allowance for credit losses for HTM securities was necessary as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The evaluation of credit risk includes consideration of third-party and government guarantees (both explicit and implicit), senior or subordinated status, credit ratings of the issuer, the effects of interest rate changes since purchase and observable market information such as issuer-specific credit spreads.
The carrying amount of equity investments without a readily determinable fair value was $83 million and $79 million at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The year-to-date 2023 and 2022 gross amounts of upward and downward valuation adjustments were not significant.
Unrealized gains of $4 million and $6 million were recognized in the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, for equity investments with readily determinable fair values. Unrealized losses of $9 million and $13 million were recognized in the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, for equity investments with readily determinable fair values.

NOTE 3—LOANS & LEASES
Note 3—Loans and Leases
The loans and leases portfolio is disaggregated into portfolio segments and then further disaggregated into classes for certain disclosures. GAAP defines a portfolio segment as the level at which an entity develops and documents a systematic method for determining its allowance for credit losses. A class is generally a disaggregation of a portfolio segment and is generally determined based on risk characteristics of the loan and FHN’s method for monitoring and assessing credit risk and performance. FHN's loan and lease portfolio segments are commercial and consumer. The classes of loans and leases are: (1) commercial, financial, and industrial, which
includes commercial and industrial loans and leases and loans to mortgage companies, (2) commercial real estate, (3) consumer real estate, which includes both real estate installment and home equity lines of credit, and (4) credit card and other.
The following table provides the amortized cost basis of loans and leases by portfolio segment and class as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, excluding accrued interest of $252 million and $226 million, respectively, which is included in other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Restrictions
Loans and leases with carrying values of $44.0 billion and $38.3 billion were pledged as collateral for borrowings at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Most of FHN’s business activity is with clients located in the southern United States. FHN’s lending activity is concentrated in its market areas within those states. As of June 30, 2023, FHN had loans to mortgage companies of $2.7 billion and loans to finance and insurance companies of $4.1 billion. As a result, 20% of the C&I portfolio is sensitive to impacts on the financial services industry.
Credit Quality Indicators
FHN employs a dual grade commercial risk grading methodology to assign an estimate for the probability of default and the loss given default for each commercial loan using factors specific to various industry, portfolio, or product segments that result in a rank ordering of risk and the assignment of grades PD 1 to PD 16. This credit
grading system is intended to identify and measure the credit quality of the loan and lease portfolio by analyzing the migration between grading categories. It is also integral to the estimation methodology utilized in determining the ALLL since an allowance is established for pools of commercial loans based on the credit grade assigned. Each PD grade corresponds to an estimated one-year default probability percentage. PD grades are continually evaluated but require a formal scorecard annually.
PD 1 through PD 12 are “pass” grades. PD grades 13-16 correspond to the regulatory-defined categories of special mention (13), substandard (14), doubtful (15), and loss (16). Special mention loans and leases have potential weaknesses that, if left uncorrected, may result in deterioration of FHN's credit position at some future date. Substandard commercial loans and leases have well-defined weaknesses and are characterized by the distinct possibility that FHN will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Doubtful commercial loans and leases have the same weaknesses as substandard

The consumer portfolio is comprised primarily of smaller-balance loans which are very similar in nature in that most are standard products and are backed by residential real estate. Because of the similarities of consumer loan types, FHN is able to utilize the FICO score, among other attributes, to assess the credit quality of consumer borrowers. FICO scores are refreshed on a quarterly basis in an attempt to reflect the recent risk profile of the borrowers. Accruing delinquency amounts are indicators of asset quality within the credit card and other consumer portfolio.
The following table reflects the amortized cost basis by year of origination and refreshed FICO scores for
consumer real estate loans as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Within consumer real estate, classes include HELOC and real estate installment loans. HELOCs are loans which during their draw period are classified as revolving loans. Once the draw period ends and the loan enters its repayment period, the loan converts to a term loan and is classified as a revolving loan converted to a term loan. All loans classified in the following tables as revolving loans or revolving loans converted to term loans are HELOCs. Real estate installment loans are originated as fixed term loans and are classified below in their vintage year. All loans in the following tables classified in a vintage year are real estate installment loans.

NOTE 3—LOANS & LEASES
Nonaccrual and Past Due Loans and Leases
Loans and leases are placed on nonaccrual if it becomes evident that full collection of principal and interest is at risk, impairment has been recognized as a partial charge-off of principal balance due to insufficient collateral value and past due status, or on a case-by-case basis if FHN continues to receive payments but there are other borrower-specific issues. Included in nonaccrual are loans
for which FHN continues to receive payments including residential real estate loans where the borrower has been discharged of personal obligation through bankruptcy.
Past due loans are loans contractually past due as to interest or principal payments, but which have not yet been put on nonaccrual status.

The following table reflects accruing and non-accruing loans and leases by class on June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

(d) $10 million and $7 million of real estate installment loans are nonaccrual loans that have been specifically reviewed for impairment with no related allowance in 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Collateral-Dependent Loans
Collateral-dependent loans are defined as loans for which repayment is expected to be derived substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral and where the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. At a minimum, the estimated value of the collateral for each loan equals the current book value.
As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, FHN had commercial loans with amortized cost of approximately $249 million and $124 million, respectively, that were based on the value of underlying collateral. Collateral-dependent C&I and CRE loans totaled $173 million and $76 million, respectively, at June 30, 2023. The collateral for these loans generally consists of business assets including land, buildings, equipment, and financial assets. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, FHN recognized charge-offs of $12 million and of $24 million, respectively, on these loans related to reductions in estimated collateral values.
Consumer HELOC and real estate installment loans with amortized cost based on the value of underlying real estate collateral were approximately $7 million and $27 million, respectively, as of June 30, 2023 and $7 million and $26 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2022. Charge-offs relating to collateral-dependent consumer loans for the six months ending June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022 were $1 million and $2 million, respectively.
Loan Modifications to Troubled Borrowers
As part of FHN’s ongoing risk management practices, FHN attempts to work with borrowers when necessary to extend or modify loan terms to better align with their current ability to repay. Modifications could include extension of the maturity date, reductions of the interest rate, reduction or forgiveness of accrued interest, or principal forgiveness. Combinations of these modifications may also be made for individual loans. Extensions and modifications to loans are made in accordance with internal policies and guidelines which conform to regulatory guidance. Principal reductions may be made in limited circumstances, typically for specific commercial loan workouts, and in the event of borrower bankruptcy. Each occurrence is unique to the borrower and is evaluated separately.
Troubled loans are considered those in which the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. The
assessment of whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty can be subjective in nature and management’s judgment may be required in making this determination. FHN may determine that a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty if the borrower is currently in default on any of its debt, or if it is probable that a borrower may default in the foreseeable future absent a modification. Many aspects of a borrower’s financial situation are assessed when determining whether they are experiencing financial difficulty.
Troubled commercial loans are typically modified through forbearance agreements which could include reduced interest rates, reduced payments, term extension, or entering into short sale agreements. Principal reductions may occur in specific circumstances.
Modifications for troubled consumer loans are generally structured using parameters of U.S. government-sponsored programs. For HELOC and real estate installment loans, troubled loans are typically modified by an interest rate reduction and a possible maturity date extension to reach an affordable housing debt-to-income ratio. Despite the absence of a loan modification by FHN, the discharge of personal liability through bankruptcy proceedings is considered a court-imposed modification.
For the credit card portfolio, troubled loan modifications are typically enacted through either a short-term credit card hardship program or a longer-term credit card workout program. In the credit card hardship program, borrowers may be granted rate and payment reductions for six months to one year. In the credit card workout program, borrowers are granted a rate reduction to 0% and a term extension for up to five years.
Modifications to Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty
For periods subsequent to December 31, 2022, information regarding loans modified when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty are included in the tables below.
The following tables present the amortized cost basis at the end of the reporting period of loans modified to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty, disaggregated by class of financing receivable and type of modification made, as well as the financial effect of the modifications made as of June 30, 2023:

Troubled Debt Restructurings

Prior to January 1, 2023, a modification was classified as a TDR if the borrower was experiencing financial difficulty and it was determined that FHN granted a concession to the borrower. Concessions represented modifications that FHN would not otherwise consider if a borrower had not been experiencing financial difficulty. Evaluation of whether a concession was granted, was subjective in nature and management’s judgment was required in making the determination of whether a modification was
classified as a TDR. All non-reaffirmed residential real estate loans discharged in Chapter 7 bankruptcy were considered concessions and classified as nonaccruing TDRs.
On December 31, 2022, FHN had $180 million of portfolio loans classified as TDRs. Additionally, $30 million of loans held for sale as of December 31, 2022 were classified as TDRs.

PART I, ITEM 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 4—ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES
Note 4—Allowance for Credit Losses
Management's estimate of expected credit losses in the loan and lease portfolios is recorded in the ALLL and the reserve for unfunded lending commitments, collectively referred to as the Allowance for Credit Losses, or the ACL. The ALLL and the reserve for unfunded lending commitments are reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheets in the allowance for loan and lease losses and in other liabilities, respectively. Provision for credit losses related to the loans and leases portfolio and the unfunded lending commitments are reported in the Consolidated Statements of Income as provision for credit losses.
The ACL is maintained at a level management believes to be appropriate to absorb expected lifetime credit losses over the contractual life of the loan and lease portfolio and unfunded lending commitments. The determination of the ACL is based on periodic evaluation of the loan and lease portfolios and unfunded lending commitments considering a number of relevant underlying factors, including key assumptions and evaluation of quantitative and qualitative information.
The expected loan losses are the product of multiplying FHN’s estimates of probability of default (PD), loss given default (LGD), and individual loan level exposure at default (EAD), including amortization and prepayment assumptions, on an undiscounted basis. FHN uses models or assumptions to develop the expected loss forecasts, which incorporate multiple macroeconomic forecasts over a four-year reasonable and supportable forecast period. After the reasonable and supportable forecast period, the Company immediately reverts to its historical loss averages, evaluated over the historical observation period, for the remaining estimated life of the loans. In order to capture the unique risks of the loan portfolio within the PD, LGD, and prepayment models, FHN segments the portfolio into pools, generally incorporating loan grades for commercial loans. As there can be no certainty that actual economic performance will precisely follow any specific macroeconomic forecast, FHN uses qualitative adjustments where current loan characteristics or current or forecasted economic conditions differ from historical periods.
The evaluation of quantitative and qualitative information is performed through assessments of groups of assets that share similar risk characteristics and certain individual loans and leases that do not share similar risk characteristics with the collective group. As described in Note 3 - Loans and Leases, loans are grouped generally by product type and significant loan portfolios are assessed for credit losses using analytical or statistical models. The quantitative component utilizes economic forecast information as its foundation and is primarily based on analytical models that use known or estimated data as of the balance sheet date and forecasted data over the reasonable and supportable period. The ACL is also
affected by qualitative factors that FHN considers to reflect current judgment of various events and risks that are not measured in the quantitative calculations, including alternative economic forecasts.
In accordance with its accounting policy elections, FHN does not recognize a separate allowance for expected credit losses for AIR and records reversals of AIR as reductions of interest income. FHN reverses previously accrued but uncollected interest when an asset is placed on nonaccrual status. AIR and the related allowance for expected credit losses is included as a component of other assets. The total amount of interest reversals from loans placed on nonaccrual status and the amount of income recognized on nonaccrual loans during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 were not material.
Expected credit losses for unfunded commitments are estimated for periods where the commitment is not unconditionally cancellable. The measurement of expected credit losses for unfunded commitments mirrors that of loans and leases with the additional estimate of future draw rates (timing and amount).
Prior to January 1, 2023, TDRs were reflected in FHN’s estimate of expected credit losses as described in Note 1 - Significant Accounting Policies, in its 2022 Form 10-K. Subsequent to December 31, 2022, in accordance with the provisions of ASU 2022-02, FHN has ceased recognition of TDRs and no longer performs discounted cash flow calculations for these loans to estimate expected credit losses. As described in Note 3 – Loans and Leases, FHN now monitors and discloses information associated with modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. For both commercial and consumer portfolio segments, an adjustment to the ACL is generally not recorded at the time of modification because FHN includes these modified loans in its quantitative loss estimation processes. In the event of principal forgiveness, which primarily occurs for commercial loan workouts and consumer loans experiencing bankruptcy, FHN records the reduction in expected collectible principal balance as a charge-off against the ALLL.
The increase in the ACL balance as of June 30, 2023 as compared to December 31, 2022 largely reflects potential economic instability projected in the macroeconomic forecasts resulting from inflation, interest rate increases, and other factors. In developing credit loss estimates for its loan and lease portfolios, FHN utilized two Moody’s forecast scenarios for its macroeconomic inputs. As of June 30, 2023, FHN's scenario selection process focused on key economic drivers such as unemployment and economic activity including recession risk. Risks considered include: the effects of inflation, rising interest rates, supply chain disruptions, labor/wage constraints, and international conflict. FHN selected one scenario as its

base case, which was the Moody's baseline scenario. The heaviest weight was placed on the baseline scenario. A smaller weight was placed on the FHN-selected downside scenario.
Management also made qualitative adjustments to reflect estimated recoveries based on a review of prior charge-off and recovery levels, for default risk associated with large balances with individual borrowers, for estimated loss
amounts not reflected in historical factors due to specific portfolio risk, and for instances where limited data for acquired loans is considered to affect modeled results.

NOTE 5—MORTGAGE BANKING ACTIVITY
Note 5—Mortgage Banking Activity
FHN originates mortgage loans for sale into the secondary market. These loans primarily consist of residential first lien mortgages that conform to standards established by GSEs that are major investors in U.S. home mortgages, but can also consist of junior lien and jumbo loans secured by residential property. These loans are primarily sold to private companies that are unaffiliated with the GSEs on a servicing-released basis. Gains and losses on these mortgage loans are included in mortgage banking and title income on the Consolidated Statements of Income.
At June 30, 2023, FHN had approximately $36 million of loans that remained from pre-2009 mortgage business
operations of legacy First Horizon. Activity related to the pre-2009 mortgage loans was primarily limited to payments and write-offs in 2023 and 2022, with no new originations or loan sales, and only an insignificant amount of repurchases. These loans are excluded from the disclosure below.
The following table summarizes activity relating to residential mortgage loans held for sale as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and the year ended December 31, 2022.

In addition, there was an insignificant amount of non-mortgage and commercial servicing rights as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Total mortgage servicing fees included in mortgage banking and title income were $2 million and $3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Mortgage servicing rights with a net carrying amount of $21 million were sold during the second quarter of 2022 resulting in a gain of $12 million which is included in mortgage banking and title income on the Consolidated Statement of Income.

FHN performed the required annual goodwill impairment test as of October 1, 2022. The annual impairment test did not indicate impairment in any of FHN’s reporting units as of the testing date. Following the testing date, management evaluated the events and circumstances that could indicate that goodwill might be impaired and concluded that it is not more likely than not that goodwill was impaired. If there are any triggering events between annual periods, management will evaluate whether an impairment analysis is warranted.
Accounting estimates and assumptions were made about FHN's future performance and cash flows, as well as other prevailing market factors (e.g., interest rates, economic
trends, etc.) when determining fair value as part of the goodwill impairment test. While management used the best information available to estimate future performance for each reporting unit, future adjustments to management's projections may be necessary if conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the estimates.

On February 28, 2022, in connection with the execution of the TD Merger Agreement, FHN issued $494 million of Series G Perpetual Convertible Preferred Stock (the Series G Convertible Preferred Stock). The Series G Convertible Preferred Stock was convertible into up to 4.9% of the outstanding shares of FHN common stock in certain circumstances, including termination of the TD Merger Agreement. Because regulatory approval of the TD Transaction was not obtained, conversion occurred, effective June 26, 2023, at a fixed rate of 4,000 shares of common stock for each share of Series G Convertible Preferred Stock, resulting in 19,742,776 additional common shares outstanding.
The $494 million carrying value of the Series G Convertible Preferred Stock qualified as Tier 1 Capital as of December 31, 2022 and qualified for Common Equity Tier 1 Capital upon conversion to common stock on June 26, 2023.
Subsidiary Preferred Stock
First Horizon Bank has issued 300,000 shares of Class A Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock (Class A Preferred Stock) with a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share. Dividends on the Class A Preferred Stock, if declared, accrue and are payable each quarter, in arrears, at a floating rate equal to the greater of three-month LIBOR plus 0.85% or 3.75% per annum. After June 30, 2023, that floating rate will be the greater of three-month CME Term SOFR plus 1.11161% (0.26161% plus 0.85%) or 3.75% per annum. These securities qualify fully as Tier 1 capital for both First Horizon Bank and FHN. On June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $295 million of Class A Preferred Stock was recognized as noncontrolling interest on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
LIBOR Change to SOFR
On March 5, 2021, the U.K.'s Financial Conduct Authority announced that all tenors of LIBOR would cease publication or no longer be representative after June 30, 2023. On March 15, 2022, the Adjustable Interest Rate (LIBOR) Act was enacted in the U.S. The LIBOR Act provides that LIBOR will transition to a replacement benchmark based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR), plus a spread adjustment, in such covered contracts. Subsequently, the FRB adopted Regulation ZZ that identified CME Term SOFR, a forward term rate based on SOFR administered by CME Group Benchmark Administration, Ltd., plus a spread adjustment, as the replacement rate for securities for any interest rate calculations after June 30, 2023.
On April 25, 2023, FHN announced that each reference to LIBOR in each applicable securities contract (which term includes preferred stock and related depositary shares) will transition to CME Term SOFR, plus a tenor-based spread adjustment, on the first business day after June 30, 2023 pursuant to the LIBOR Act and the implementing regulations. The information presented in this Note reflects that transition.

NOTE 10—CONTINGENCIES & OTHER DISCLOSURES
Note 10—Contingencies and Other Disclosures
Contingencies
Contingent Liabilities Overview
Contingent liabilities arise in the ordinary course of business. Often, they are related to lawsuits, arbitration, mediation, and other forms of litigation. Various litigation matters currently are threatened or pending against FHN and its subsidiaries. Also, FHN at times receives requests for information, subpoenas, or other inquiries from federal, state, and local regulators, from other government authorities, and from other parties concerning various matters relating to FHN’s current or former businesses. Certain matters of that sort are pending at most times, and FHN generally cooperates when those matters arise. Pending and threatened litigation matters sometimes are settled by the parties, and sometimes pending matters are resolved in court or before an arbitrator, or are withdrawn. Regardless of the manner of resolution, frequently the most significant changes in status of a matter occur over a short time period, often following a lengthy period of little substantive activity. In view of the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of these matters, particularly where the claimants seek very large or indeterminate damages, or where the cases present novel legal theories or involve a large number of parties, or where claims or other actions may be possible but have not been brought, FHN cannot reasonably determine what the eventual outcome of the matters will be, what the timing of the ultimate resolution of these matters may be, or what the eventual loss or impact related to each matter may be. FHN establishes a loss contingency liability for a litigation matter when loss is both probable and reasonably estimable as prescribed by applicable financial accounting guidance. If loss for a matter is probable and a range of possible loss outcomes is the best estimate available, accounting guidance requires a liability to be established at the low end of the range.
Based on current knowledge, and after consultation with counsel, management is of the opinion that loss contingencies related to threatened or pending litigation matters should not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition of FHN but may be material to FHN’s operating results for any particular reporting period depending, in part, on the results from that period.
Material Loss Contingency Matters
As used in this Note, except for matters that are reported as having been substantially settled or otherwise substantially resolved, FHN's “material loss contingency matters” generally fall into at least one of the following categories: (i) FHN has determined material loss to be probable and has established a material loss liability in accordance with applicable financial accounting guidance;
(ii) FHN has determined material loss to be probable but is not reasonably able to estimate an amount or range of material loss liability; or (iii) FHN has determined that material loss is not probable but is reasonably possible, and the amount or range of that reasonably possible material loss is estimable. As defined in applicable accounting guidance, loss is reasonably possible if there is more than a remote chance of a material loss outcome for FHN. FHN provides contingencies note disclosures for certain pending or threatened litigation matters each quarter, including all matters mentioned in categories (i) or (ii) and, occasionally, certain matters mentioned in category (iii). In addition, in this Note, certain other matters, or groups of matters, are discussed relating to FHN’s pre-2009 mortgage origination and servicing businesses. In all litigation matters discussed in this Note, unless settled or otherwise resolved, FHN believes it has meritorious defenses and intends to pursue those defenses vigorously.
FHN reassesses the liability for litigation matters each quarter as the matters progress. At June 30, 2023, the aggregate amount of liabilities established for all such loss contingency matters was $2 million. These liabilities are separate from those discussed under the heading Mortgage Loan Repurchase and Foreclosure Liability below.
In each material loss contingency matter, except as otherwise noted, there is more than a remote chance that any of the following outcomes will occur: the plaintiff will substantially prevail; the defense will substantially prevail; the plaintiff will prevail in part; or the matter will be settled by the parties. At June 30, 2023, FHN estimates that for all material loss contingency matters, estimable reasonably possible losses in future periods in excess of currently established liabilities could aggregate in a range from zero to less than $1 million.
As a result of the general uncertainties discussed above and the specific uncertainties discussed for each matter mentioned below, it is possible that the ultimate future loss experienced by FHN for any particular matter may materially exceed the amount, if any, of currently established liability for that matter.
Mortgage Loan Repurchase and Foreclosure Liability
FHN’s repurchase and foreclosure liability, primarily related to its pre-2009 mortgage origination, sale, securitization, and servicing businesses, is comprised of accruals to cover estimated loss content in the active pipeline, estimated future inflows, and estimated loss content related to certain known claims not currently included in the active pipeline. The active pipeline consists of mortgage loan repurchase and make-whole demands from loan purchasers or securitization participants, foreclosure/servicing demands from borrowers, and

PART I, ITEM 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 10—CONTINGENCIES & OTHER DISCLOSURES
certain related exposures. FHN compares the estimated probable incurred losses determined under the applicable loss estimation approaches for the respective periods with current reserve levels. Changes in the estimated required liability levels are recorded as necessary through the repurchase and foreclosure provision.
Based on currently available information and experience to date, FHN has evaluated its loan repurchase, make-whole, foreclosure, and certain related exposures and has accrued for losses of $16 million as of both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Accrued liabilities for FHN’s estimate of these obligations are reflected in other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Charges/expense reversals to increase/decrease the liability are included within other income on the Consolidated Statements of Income. The estimates are based upon currently available information and fact patterns that exist as of each balance sheet date and could be subject to future changes. Changes to any one of these factors could significantly impact the estimate of FHN’s liability.
The most significant outstanding claim associated with FHN's pre-2009 businesses is a servicing indemnification claim asserted by Nationstar Mortgage LLC, currently doing business as “Mr. Cooper.” Nationstar was the purchaser of FHN’s mortgage servicing obligations and assets in 2013 and 2014 and was FHN’s subservicer. Nationstar asserts several categories of indemnity obligations in connection with mortgage loans under the subservicing arrangement and under the purchase transaction. This matter currently is not in litigation, but litigation in the future is possible. FHN is unable to estimate an RPL range for this matter due to significant uncertainties regarding: the exact nature of each of Nationstar’s claims and its position in respect of each; the number of, and the facts underlying, the claimed instances of indemnifiable events; the applicability of FHN’s contractual indemnity covenants to those facts and events; and, in those cases where the facts and events might support an indemnity claim, whether any legal defenses, counterclaims, other counter-positions, or third-party claims might eliminate or reduce claims against FHN or their impact on FHN.
Other Disclosures
Indemnification Agreements and Guarantees
In the ordinary course of business, FHN enters into indemnification agreements for legal proceedings against its directors and officers and standard representations and warranties for underwriting agreements, merger and acquisition agreements, loan sales, contractual commitments, and various other business transactions or arrangements.
The extent of FHN’s obligations under these agreements depends upon the occurrence of future events; therefore, it is not possible to estimate a maximum potential amount of payouts that could be required by such agreements.

NOTE 11—RETIREMENT PLANS
Note 11—Retirement Plans
FHN sponsors a noncontributory, qualified defined benefit pension plan to employees hired or re-hired on or before September 1, 2007. Pension benefits are based on years of service, average compensation near retirement or other termination, and estimated social security benefits at age 65. Benefits under the plan are “frozen” so that years of service and compensation changes after 2012 do not affect the benefit owed. Minimum contributions are based upon actuarially determined amounts necessary to fund the total benefit obligation. Decisions to contribute to the plan are based upon pension funding requirements under the Pension Protection Act, the maximum amount deductible under the Internal Revenue Code, the actual performance of plan assets, and trends in the regulatory environment. FHN made no contributions to the qualified pension plan in 2022. Management does not currently anticipate that FHN will make a contribution to the qualified pension plan in 2023.
FHN also maintains non-qualified plans including a supplemental retirement plan that covers certain
employees whose benefits under the qualified pension plan have been limited by tax rules. These other non-qualified plans are unfunded, and contributions to these plans cover all benefits paid under the non-qualified plans. Payments made under the non-qualified plans were $5 million for 2022. FHN anticipates making benefit payments under the non-qualified plans of $5 million in 2023.
Service cost is included in personnel expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income. All other components of net periodic benefit cost are included in other expense.
For more information on FHN's pension plan and other postretirement benefit plans, see Note 17 - Retirement Plans and Other Employee Benefits in FHN's 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Note 12—Business Segment Information
FHN's operating segments are composed of the following:
Regional Banking segment offers financial products and services, including traditional lending and deposit taking, to consumer and commercial clients primarily in the southern U.S. and other selected markets. Regional Banking also provides investment, wealth management, financial planning, trust and asset management services for consumer clients.

Specialty Banking segment consists of lines of business that deliver product offerings and services with specialized industry knowledge. Specialty Banking’s lines of business include asset-based lending, mortgage warehouse lending, commercial real estate, franchise finance, correspondent banking, equipment finance, mortgage, and title insurance. In addition to traditional lending and deposit taking, Specialty Banking also delivers treasury management solutions, loan syndications, and international banking. Additionally, Specialty Banking has a line of business focused on fixed income securities sales, trading, underwriting, and strategies for institutional clients in the U.S. and abroad, as well as loan sales, portfolio advisory services, and derivative sales.

Corporate segment consists primarily of corporate support functions including risk management, audit,
accounting, finance, executive office, and corporate communications. Shared support services such as human resources, properties, technology, credit risk and bank operations are allocated to the activities of Regional Banking, Specialty Banking and Corporate. Additionally, the Corporate segment includes centralized management of capital and funding to support the business activities of the company including management of wholesale funding, liquidity, and capital management and allocation. The Corporate segment also includes the revenue and expense associated with run-off businesses such as pre-2009 mortgage banking elements, run-off consumer and trust preferred loan portfolios, and other exited businesses.

Periodically, FHN adapts its segments to reflect managerial or strategic changes. FHN may also modify its methodology of allocating expenses and equity among segments which could change historical segment results. Business segment revenue, expense, asset, and equity levels reflect those which are specifically identifiable, or which are allocated based on an internal allocation method. Because the allocations are based on internally developed assignments and allocations, to an extent they are subjective. Generally, all assignments and allocations have been consistently applied for all periods presented.

PART I, ITEM 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 13—VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES
Note 13—Variable Interest Entities
FHN makes equity investments in various entities that are considered VIEs, as defined by GAAP. A VIE typically does not have sufficient equity at risk to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. The Company’s variable interest arises from contractual, ownership, or other monetary interests in the entity, which change with fluctuations in the fair value of the entity's net assets. FHN consolidates a VIE if FHN is the primary beneficiary of the entity. FHN is the primary beneficiary of a VIE if FHN's variable interest provides it with the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE and the right to receive benefits (or the obligation to absorb losses) that could potentially be significant to the VIE. To determine whether or not a variable interest held could potentially be significant to the VIE, FHN considers both qualitative and quantitative factors regarding the nature, size and form of its involvement with the VIE. FHN assesses whether or not it is the primary beneficiary of a VIE on an ongoing basis.
Consolidated Variable Interest Entities
FHN has established certain rabbi trusts related to deferred compensation plans offered to its employees.
FHN contributes employee cash compensation deferrals to the trusts and directs the underlying investments made by the trusts. The assets of these trusts are available to FHN’s creditors only in the event that FHN becomes insolvent. These trusts are considered VIEs as there is no equity at risk in the trusts since FHN provided the equity interest to its employees in exchange for services rendered. FHN is considered the primary beneficiary of the rabbi trusts as it has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the rabbi trusts through its ability to direct the underlying investments made by the trusts. Additionally, FHN could potentially receive benefits or absorb losses that are significant to the trusts due to its right to receive any asset values in excess of liability payoffs and its obligation to fund any liabilities to employees that are in excess of a rabbi trust’s assets.
The following table summarizes the carrying value of assets and liabilities associated with rabbi trusts used for deferred compensation plans which are consolidated by FHN as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

Nonconsolidated Variable Interest Entities
Low Income Housing Tax Credit Partnerships
Through designated wholly-owned subsidiaries, First Horizon Bank makes equity investments as a limited partner in various partnerships that sponsor affordable housing projects utilizing the LIHTC. The purpose of these investments is to achieve a satisfactory return on capital and to support FHN’s community reinvestment initiatives. LIHTC partnerships are managed by unrelated general partners that have the power to direct the activities which most significantly affect the performance of the partnerships. FHN is therefore not the primary beneficiary of any LIHTC partnerships. Accordingly, FHN does not
consolidate these VIEs and accounts for these investments in other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
FHN accounts for all qualifying LIHTC investments under the proportional amortization method. Under this method an entity amortizes the initial cost of the investment in proportion to the tax credits and other tax benefits received and recognizes the net investment performance as a component of income tax expense. LIHTC investments that do not qualify for the proportional amortization method are accounted for using the equity method. Expenses associated with non-qualifying LIHTC investments were not material for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

Other Tax Credit Investments
Through designated subsidiaries, First Horizon Bank periodically makes equity investments as a non-managing member in various LLCs that sponsor community development projects utilizing the NMTC. First Horizon Bank also makes equity investments as a limited partner or non-managing member in entities that receive solar and historic tax credits. The purposes of these investments are to achieve a satisfactory return on capital and to support FHN’s community reinvestment initiatives. These entities are considered VIEs as First Horizon Bank's subsidiaries represent the holders of the equity investment at risk, but do not have the ability to direct the activities that most significantly affect the performance of the entities.
Small Issuer Trust Preferred Holdings
First Horizon Bank holds variable interests in trusts which have issued mandatorily redeemable preferred capital securities (“trust preferreds”) for smaller banking and insurance enterprises. First Horizon Bank has no voting rights for the trusts’ activities. The trusts’ only assets are junior subordinated debentures of the issuing enterprises. The creditors of the trusts hold no recourse to the assets of First Horizon Bank. Since First Horizon Bank is solely a holder of the trusts’ securities, it has no rights which would give it the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the trusts’ economic performance and thus it is not considered the primary beneficiary of the trusts. First Horizon Bank has no contractual requirements to provide financial support to the trusts.
On-Balance Sheet Trust Preferred Securitization
In 2007, First Horizon Bank executed a securitization of certain small issuer trust preferreds for which the underlying trust meets the definition of a VIE as the holders of the equity investment at risk do not have the power through voting rights, or similar rights, to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance. Since First Horizon Bank did not retain servicing or other decision-making rights, First Horizon Bank is not the primary beneficiary as it does not
have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the trust’s economic performance. Accordingly, First Horizon Bank has accounted for the funds received through the securitization as a term borrowing in its Consolidated Balance Sheets. First Horizon Bank has no contractual requirements to provide financial support to the trust.
Holdings in Agency Mortgage-Backed Securities
FHN holds securities issued by various Agency securitization trusts. Based on their restrictive nature, the trusts meet the definition of a VIE since the holders of the equity investments at risk do not have the power through voting rights, or similar rights, to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entities’ economic performance. FHN could potentially receive benefits or absorb losses that are significant to the trusts based on the nature of the trusts’ activities and the size of FHN’s holdings. However, FHN is solely a holder of the trusts’ securities and does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the trusts’ economic performance and is not considered the primary beneficiary of the trusts. FHN has no contractual requirements to provide financial support to the trusts.
Commercial Loan Modifications to Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty
For certain troubled commercial loans, First Horizon Bank modifies the terms of the borrower’s debt in an effort to increase the probability of receipt of amounts contractually due. Following a modification to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty, the borrower entity typically meets the definition of a VIE as the initial determination of whether an entity is a VIE must be reconsidered as events have proven that the entity’s equity is not sufficient to permit it to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support or a restructuring of the terms of its financing. As First Horizon Bank does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact such troubled commercial borrowers’ operations, it is not considered the primary beneficiary even in situations where, based on the size of

NOTE 13—VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES
the financing provided, First Horizon Bank is exposed to potentially significant benefits and losses of the borrowing entity. First Horizon Bank has no contractual requirements to provide financial support to the borrowing entities beyond certain funding commitments established upon restructuring of the terms of the debt that allows for preparation of the underlying collateral for sale.
Proprietary Trust Preferred Issuances
In conjunction with its acquisitions, FHN acquired junior subordinated debt underlying multiple issuances of trust preferred debt. All of the trusts are considered VIEs
because the ownership interests from the capital contributions to these trusts are not considered “at risk” in evaluating whether the holders of the equity investments at risk in the trusts have the ability to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entities’ economic performance. Thus, FHN cannot be the trusts’ primary beneficiary because its ownership interests in the trusts are not considered variable interests as they are not considered “at risk”. Consequently, none of the trusts are consolidated by FHN. The following tables summarize FHN’s nonconsolidated VIEs as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

PART I, ITEM 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 14—DERIVATIVES
Note 14—Derivatives
In the normal course of business, FHN utilizes various financial instruments (including derivative contracts and credit-related agreements) through its fixed income and risk management operations, as part of its risk management strategy and as a means to meet clients’ needs. Derivative instruments are subject to credit and market risks in excess of the amount recorded on the balance sheet as required by GAAP. The contractual or notional amounts of these financial instruments do not necessarily represent the amount of credit or market risk. However, they can be used to measure the extent of involvement in various types of financial instruments. Controls and monitoring procedures for these instruments have been established and are routinely reevaluated. The ALCO controls, coordinates, and monitors the usage and effectiveness of these financial instruments.
Credit risk represents the potential loss that may occur if a party to a transaction fails to perform according to the terms of the contract. The measure of credit exposure is the replacement cost of contracts with a positive fair value. FHN manages credit risk by entering into financial instrument transactions through national exchanges, primary dealers or approved counterparties, and by using mutual margining and master netting agreements whenever possible to limit potential exposure. FHN also maintains collateral posting requirements with certain counterparties to limit credit risk. Daily margin posted or received with central clearinghouses is considered a legal settlement of the related derivative contracts which results in a net presentation for each contract in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Treatment of daily margin as a settlement has no effect on hedge accounting or gains/losses for the applicable derivative contracts. On June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, FHN had $531 million and $159 million of cash receivables and $28 million and $42 million of cash payables related to collateral posting under master netting arrangements, inclusive of collateral posted related to contracts with adjustable collateral posting thresholds and over-collateralized positions, with derivative counterparties. With exchange-traded contracts, the credit risk is limited to the clearinghouse used. For non-exchange traded instruments, credit risk may occur when there is a gain in the fair value of the financial instrument and the counterparty fails to perform according to the terms of the contract and/or when the collateral proves to be of insufficient value. See additional discussion regarding master netting agreements and collateral posting requirements later in this note under the heading “Master Netting and Similar Agreements.” Market risk represents the potential loss due to the decrease in the value of a financial instrument caused primarily by changes in interest rates or the prices of debt instruments. FHN manages market risk by establishing and monitoring limits on the types and degree of risk that may be undertaken.
FHN continually measures this risk through the use of models that measure value-at-risk and earnings-at-risk.
Derivative Instruments
FHN enters into various derivative contracts both to facilitate client transactions and as a risk management tool. Where contracts have been created for clients, FHN enters into upstream transactions with dealers to offset its risk exposure. Contracts with dealers that require central clearing are novated to a clearing agent who becomes FHN’s counterparty. Derivatives are also used as a risk management tool to hedge FHN’s exposure to changes in interest rates or other defined market risks.
Forward contracts are over-the-counter contracts where two parties agree to purchase and sell a specific quantity of a financial instrument at a specified price, with delivery or settlement at a specified date. Futures contracts are exchange-traded contracts where two parties agree to purchase and sell a specific quantity of a financial instrument at a specified price, with delivery or settlement at a specified date. Interest rate option contracts give the purchaser the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell a specified quantity of a financial instrument, at a specified price, during a specified period of time. Caps and floors are options that are linked to a notional principal amount and an underlying indexed interest rate. Interest rate swaps involve the exchange of interest payments at specified intervals between two parties without the exchange of any underlying principal. Swaptions are options on interest rate swaps that give the purchaser the right, but not the obligation, to enter into an interest rate swap agreement during a specified period of time.
Trading Activities
FHNF trades U.S. Treasury, U.S. Agency, government-guaranteed loan, mortgage-backed, corporate and municipal fixed income securities, and other securities for distribution to clients. When these securities settle on a delayed basis, they are considered forward contracts. FHNF also enters into interest rate contracts, including caps, swaps, and floors, for its clients. In addition, FHNF enters into futures and option contracts to economically hedge interest rate risk associated with a portion of its securities inventory. These transactions are measured at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in noninterest income. Related assets and liabilities are recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as derivative assets and derivative liabilities within other assets and other liabilities. The FHNF Risk Committee and the Credit Risk Management Committee collaborate to mitigate credit risk related to these transactions. Credit risk is controlled through credit approvals, risk control limits, and ongoing monitoring procedures. Total trading revenues were $22 million and $38 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, $49 million and

Interest Rate Risk Management
FHN’s ALCO focuses on managing market risk by controlling and limiting earnings volatility attributable to changes in interest rates. Interest rate risk exists to the extent that interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities have different maturity or repricing characteristics. FHN uses derivatives, primarily swaps, that are designed to moderate the impact on earnings as interest rates change. Interest paid or received for swaps utilized by FHN to hedge the fair value of long-term debt is recognized as an adjustment of the interest expense of the liabilities whose risk is being managed. FHN’s interest rate risk management policy is to use derivatives to hedge interest rate risk or market value of assets or liabilities,
not to speculate. In addition, FHN has entered into certain interest rate swaps and caps as a part of a product offering to commercial clients that includes customer derivatives paired with upstream offsetting market instruments that, when completed, are designed to mitigate interest rate risk. These contracts do not qualify for hedge accounting and are measured at fair value with gains or losses included in current earnings in noninterest expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income.
The following tables summarize FHN’s derivatives associated with interest rate risk management activities as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

Cash Flow Hedges
Prior to 2021, FHN entered into pay floating, receive fixed interest rate swaps designed to manage its exposure to the variability in cash flows related to interest payments on debt instruments. The debt instruments primarily consist of held-to-maturity commercial loans that have variable interest payments that historically were based on 1-month LIBOR. In second quarter 2023, the remaining hedge was revised to reference 1-month Term SOFR after the cessation of LIBOR-based cash flows. In conjunction with the IBKC merger, FHN acquired interest rate contracts (floors and collars) which were re-designated as cash flow hedges. The debt instruments associated with these hedges also primarily consisted of held-to-maturity commercial loans that had variable interest payments that were based on 1-month LIBOR. The last hedge acquired in conjunction with the IBKC merger matured in second quarter 2023.
In 2022, FHN entered into interest rate contracts (floors and swaps) which have been designated as cash flow hedges. These hedges reference 1-month Term SOFR and FHN has made certain elections under ASU 2020-04 to facilitate qualification for hedge accounting during the time that hedged items transition away from 1-Month LIBOR.
In a cash flow hedge, the entire change in the fair value of the interest rate derivatives included in the assessment of hedge effectiveness is initially recorded in OCI and is subsequently reclassified from OCI to current period earnings (interest income or interest expense) in the same period that the hedged item affects earnings.

Other Derivatives
FHN has mortgage banking operations that include the origination and sale of loans into the secondary market. As part of the origination of loans, FHN enters into interest rate lock commitments with borrowers. Additionally, FHN
enters into forward sales contracts with buyers for delivery of loans at a future date. Both of these contracts qualify as freestanding derivatives and are recognized at fair value through earnings. The notional and fair values of these contracts are presented in the table below.

In conjunction with pre-2020 sales of Visa Class B shares, FHN entered into derivative transactions whereby FHN will make or receive cash payments whenever the conversion ratio of the Visa Class B shares into Visa Class A shares is adjusted. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the derivative liabilities associated with the sales of Visa Class B shares were $34 million and $27 million, respectively. FHN recognized $15 million in derivative valuation adjustments related to prior sales of Visa Class B shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and $22 million in derivative valuation adjustments related to prior sales of Visa Class B shares for the year ended December 31, 2022. See Note 16 - Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities for discussion of the valuation inputs and processes for these Visa-related derivatives.
FHN utilizes cross currency swaps and cross currency interest rate swaps to economically hedge its exposure to foreign currency risk and interest rate risk associated with non-U.S. dollar denominated loans. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, these loans were valued at $14 million and $9 million, respectively. The balance sheet amount and the gains/losses associated with these derivatives were not significant.
Related to its loan participation/syndication activities, FHN enters into risk participation agreements, under which it assumes exposure for, or receives indemnification for, borrowers’ performance on underlying interest rate derivative contracts. FHN's counterparties in these contracts are other lending institutions involved in the loan participation/syndication arrangements for which the underlying interest rate derivative contract is intended to hedge interest rate risk for the borrower. FHN will make (other institution is the lead bank) or receive (FHN is the lead bank) payments for risk participations if the borrower defaults on its obligation to perform under the terms of its interest rate derivative agreement with the lead bank in the participation.
As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the notional values of FHN’s risk participations were $326 million and $242 million of derivative assets and $881 million and $742 million of derivative liabilities, respectively. The notional value for risk participation/syndication
agreements is consistent with the percentage of participation in the lending arrangement. FHN's maximum exposure or benefit in the risk participation agreements is contingent on the fair value of the underlying interest rate derivative contracts for which the borrower is in a liability position at the time of default. FHN monitors the credit risk associated with the borrowers to which the risk participations relate through the same credit risk assessment process utilized for establishing credit loss estimates for its loan portfolio. These credit risk estimates are included in the determination of fair value for the risk participations. Assuming all underlying third-party customers referenced in the swap contracts defaulted at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the exposure from these agreements would not be material based on the fair value of the underlying swaps.
FHN holds certain certificates of deposit with the rate of return based on an equity index which is considered an embedded derivative as a written option that must be separately recognized. The risks of the written option are offset by purchasing an option with terms that mirror the written option, which is also carried at fair value on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, FHN recognized an insignificant amount of assets and liabilities associated with these contracts.
Master Netting and Similar Agreements
FHN uses master netting agreements, mutual margining agreements and collateral posting requirements to minimize credit risk on derivative contracts. Master netting and similar agreements are used when counterparties have multiple derivatives contracts that allow for a “right of setoff,” meaning that a counterparty may net offsetting positions and collateral with the same counterparty under the contract to determine a net receivable or payable. The following discussion provides an overview of these arrangements which may vary due to the derivative type and market in which a derivative transaction is executed.
Interest rate derivatives are subject to agreements consistent with standard agreement forms of the ISDA. Currently, all interest rate derivative contracts are entered

2Q23 FORM 10-Q REPORT

NOTE 14—DERIVATIVES
into as over-the-counter transactions and collateral posting requirements are based on the net asset or liability position with each respective counterparty. For contracts that require central clearing, novation to a counterparty with access to a clearinghouse occurs and initial margin is posted.
Cash margin received (posted) that is considered settlements for the derivative contracts is included in the respective derivative asset (liability) value. Cash margin that is considered collateral received (posted) for interest rate derivatives is recognized as a liability (asset) on FHN’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Interest rate derivatives with clients that are smaller financial institutions typically require posting of collateral by the counterparty to FHN. This collateral is subject to a threshold with daily adjustments based upon changes in the level or fair value of the derivative position. Positions and related collateral can be netted in the event of default. Collateral pledged by a counterparty is typically cash or securities. The securities pledged as collateral are not recognized within FHN’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. Interest rate derivatives associated with lending arrangements share the collateral with the related loan(s). The derivative and loan positions may be netted in the event of default. For disclosure purposes, the entire collateral amount is allocated to the loan.
Interest rate derivatives with larger financial institutions typically contain provisions whereby the collateral posting thresholds under the agreements adjust based on the credit ratings of both counterparties. If the credit rating of FHN and/or First Horizon Bank is lowered, FHN could be required to post additional collateral with the counterparties. Conversely, if the credit rating of FHN and/or First Horizon Bank is increased, FHN could have collateral released and be required to post less collateral in the future. Also, if a counterparty’s credit ratings were to decrease, FHN and/or First Horizon Bank could require the posting of additional collateral; whereas if a counterparty’s credit ratings were to increase, the counterparty could require the release of excess collateral. Collateral for these arrangements is adjusted daily based on changes in the net fair value position with each counterparty.
The net fair value, determined by individual counterparty, of all derivative instruments with adjustable collateral
posting thresholds was $6 million of assets and $257 million of liabilities on June 30, 2023, and $5 million of assets and $268 million of liabilities on December 31, 2022. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, FHN had received collateral of $97 million and $106 million and posted collateral of $125 million and $61 million, respectively, in the normal course of business related to these agreements.
Certain agreements also contain accelerated termination provisions, inclusive of the right of offset, if a counterparty’s credit rating falls below a specified level. If a counterparty’s debt rating (including FHN’s and First Horizon Bank’s) were to fall below these minimums, these provisions would be triggered, and the counterparties could terminate the agreements and require immediate settlement of all derivative contracts under the agreements. The net fair value, determined by individual counterparty, of all interest rate derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent accelerated termination provisions was $609 million of assets and $257 million of liabilities on June 30, 2023, and $378 million of assets and $268 million of liabilities on December 31, 2022. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, FHN had received collateral of $669 million and $479 million and posted collateral of $94 million and $61 million, respectively, in the normal course of business related to these contracts.
FHNF buys and sells various types of securities for its clients. When these securities settle on a delayed basis, they are considered forward contracts, and are generally not subject to master netting agreements. For futures and options, FHN transacts through a third party, and the transactions are subject to margin and collateral maintenance requirements. In the event of default, open positions can be offset along with the associated collateral.
For this disclosure, FHN considers the impact of master netting and other similar agreements which allow FHN to settle all contracts with a single counterparty on a net basis and to offset the net derivative asset or liability position with the related securities and cash collateral. The application of the collateral cannot reduce the net derivative asset or liability position below zero, and therefore any excess collateral is not reflected in the following tables.

NOTE 15—MASTER NETTING & SIMILAR AGREEMENTS
Note 15—Master Netting and Similar Agreements—Repurchase, Reverse Repurchase, and Securities Borrowing Transactions
For repurchase, reverse repurchase and securities borrowing transactions, FHN and each counterparty have the ability to offset all open positions and related collateral in the event of default. Due to the nature of these transactions, the value of the collateral for each transaction approximates the value of the corresponding receivable or payable. For repurchase agreements through FHN’s fixed income business (securities purchased under agreements to resell and securities sold under agreements to repurchase), transactions are collateralized by securities and/or government guaranteed loans which are delivered on the settlement date and are maintained throughout the term of the transaction. For FHN’s repurchase agreements through banking activities (securities sold under agreements to repurchase), securities are typically pledged at settlement and not released until maturity. For asset positions, the collateral is not included on FHN’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. For liability positions, securities collateral pledged by FHN is generally represented within FHN’s trading or available-for-sale securities portfolios.
For this disclosure, FHN considers the impact of master netting and other similar agreements that allow FHN to settle all contracts with a single counterparty on a net basis and to offset the net asset or liability position with the related securities collateral. The application of the collateral cannot reduce the net asset or liability position below zero, and therefore any excess collateral is not reflected in the tables below.
Securities purchased under agreements to resell is included in federal funds sold and securities purchased under agreements to resell in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase is included in short-term borrowings.

NOTE 16—FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS & LIABILITIES
Note 16—Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities
FHN groups its assets and liabilities measured at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. This hierarchy requires FHN to maximize the use of observable market data, when available, and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when determining fair value. Each fair value measurement is placed into the proper level based on the lowest level of significant input. These levels are:
Level 1—Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.
Level 2—Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market.
Level 3—Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use significant assumptions not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include use of option pricing models, discounted cash flow models, and similar techniques.

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements
From time to time, FHN may be required to measure certain other financial assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with GAAP. These adjustments to fair value usually result from the application of lower of cost or market (LOCOM) accounting or write-downs of individual assets. For assets
measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis which were still held on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, respectively, the following tables provide the level of valuation assumptions used to determine each adjustment and the related carrying value.

PART I, ITEM 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 16—FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS & LIABILITIES
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, FHN recognized less than $1 million of fixed asset impairments and $1 million of leased asset impairments for both periods. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, FHN recognized $1 million of fixed asset recoveries and less than $1 million of leased asset impairments for both periods. These amounts were primarily recognized in the Corporate segment.
Lease asset impairments recognized represent the reduction in value of the right-of-use assets associated with leases that are being exited in advance of the contractual lease expiration.
Impairments are measured using a discounted cash flow methodology, which is considered a Level 3 valuation.
Impairments of long-lived tangible assets reflect locations where the associated land and building are either owned
or leased. The fair values of owned sites were determined using estimated sales prices from appraisals and broker opinions less estimated costs to sell with adjustments upon final disposition. The fair values of owned assets in leased sites (e.g., leasehold improvements) were determined using a discounted cash flow approach, based on the revised estimated useful lives of the related assets. Both measurement methodologies are considered Level 3 valuations. Impairment adjustments recognized upon disposition of a location are considered Level 2 valuations.
Level 3 Measurements

Trading Securities - SBA interest-only strips
Increases (decreases) in estimated prepayment rates and bond equivalent yields negatively (positively) affect the value of SBA interest-only strips. Management additionally considers whether the loans underlying related SBA interest-only strips are delinquent, in default or prepaying, and adjusts the fair value down 20 - 100% depending on the length of time in default.
Loans held for sale
Foreclosure losses and prepayment rates are significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of FHN’s residential real estate loans held for sale. Loss severity trends are also assessed to evaluate the reasonableness of fair value estimates resulting from
discounted cash flows methodologies as well as to estimate fair value for newly repurchased loans and loans that are near foreclosure. Significant increases (decreases) in any of these inputs in isolation would result in significantly lower (higher) fair value measurements. All observable and unobservable inputs are re-assessed quarterly.
Increases (decreases) in estimated prepayment rates and bond equivalent yields negatively (positively) affect the value of unguaranteed interests in SBA loans. Unguaranteed interest in SBA loans held for sale are carried at less than the outstanding balance due to credit risk estimates. Credit risk adjustments may be reduced if prepayment is likely or as consistent payment history is realized. Management also considers other factors such as

2Q23 FORM 10-Q REPORT

PART I, ITEM 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 16—FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS & LIABILITIES
delinquency or default and adjusts the fair value accordingly.
Loans held for investment
Constant prepayment rate, constant default rate and loss severity trends are significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of loans held for investment. Increases (decreases) in each of these inputs in isolation result in negative (positive) effects on the valuation of the associated loans.
Derivative liabilities
In conjunction with pre-2020 sales of Visa Class B shares, FHN and the purchasers entered into derivative transactions whereby FHN will make, or receive, cash payments whenever the conversion ratio of the Visa Class B shares into Visa Class A shares is adjusted. FHN uses a discounted cash flow methodology in order to estimate the fair value of FHN’s derivative liabilities associated with its prior sales of Visa Class B shares. The methodology includes estimation of both the resolution amount for Visa’s Covered Litigation matters as well as the length of time until the resolution occurs. Significant increases (decreases) in either of these inputs in isolation would result in significantly higher (lower) fair value measurements for the derivative liabilities. Additionally, FHN performs a probability weighted multiple resolution scenario to calculate the estimated fair value of these derivative liabilities. Assignment of higher (lower) probabilities to the larger potential resolution scenarios would result in an increase (decrease) in the estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities. Since this estimation process requires application of judgment in developing significant unobservable inputs used to determine the possible outcomes and the probability weighting assigned to each scenario, these derivatives have been classified within Level 3 in fair value measurements disclosures.
Loans and leases and Other Real Estate Owned
Collateral-dependent loans and OREO are primarily valued using appraisals based on sales of comparable properties in the same or similar markets. Other collateral (receivables, inventory, equipment, etc.) is valued through borrowing base certificates, financial statements and/or auction valuations. These valuations are discounted based on the quality of reporting, knowledge of the marketability/collectability of the collateral and historical disposition rates.
Other assets – tax credit investments
The estimated fair value of tax credit investments accounted for under the equity method is generally
determined in relation to the yield (i.e., future tax credits to be received) an acquirer of these investments would expect in relation to the yields experienced on current new issue and/or secondary market transactions. Thus, as tax credits are recognized, the future yield to a market participant is reduced, resulting in consistent impairment of the individual investments. Individual investments are reviewed for impairment quarterly, which may include the consideration of additional marketability discounts related to specific investments which typically includes consideration of the underlying property’s appraised value.
Fair Value Option
FHN previously elected the fair value option on a prospective basis for substantially all types of mortgage loans originated for sale purposes except for mortgage origination operations which utilize the platform acquired from CBF. FHN determined that the election reduces certain timing differences and better matches changes in the value of such loans with changes in the value of derivatives and forward delivery commitments used as economic hedges for these assets at the time of election.
Repurchased loans relating to mortgage banking operations conducted prior to the IBKC merger are recognized within loans held for sale at fair value at the time of repurchase, which includes consideration of the credit status of the loans and the estimated liquidation value. FHN has elected to continue recognition of these loans at fair value in periods subsequent to reacquisition. Due to the credit-distressed nature of the vast majority of repurchased loans and the related loss severities experienced upon repurchase, FHN believes that the fair value election provides a more timely recognition of changes in value for these loans that occur subsequent to repurchase. Absent the fair value election, these loans would be subject to valuation at the LOCOM value, which would prevent subsequent values from exceeding the initial fair value, determined at the time of repurchase, but would require recognition of subsequent declines in value. Thus, the fair value election provides for a more timely recognition of any potential future recoveries in asset values while not affecting the requirement to recognize subsequent declines in value.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the amount for residential real estate loans held for sale included an insignificant amount of gains in pretax earnings that are attributable to changes in instrument-specific credit risk. The portion of the fair value adjustments related to credit risk was determined based on estimated default rates and estimated loss severities. Interest income on residential real estate loans held for sale measured at fair value is calculated based on the note rate of the loan and is recorded in the interest income section of the Consolidated Statements of Income as interest on loans held for sale.
Determination of Fair Value
Fair values are based on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The following describes the
assumptions and methodologies used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments recorded at fair value in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and for estimating the fair value of financial instruments for which fair value is disclosed.
Short-term financial assets
Federal funds sold, securities purchased under agreements to resell, and interest-bearing deposits with other financial institutions and the Federal Reserve are carried at historical cost. The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the relatively short time between the origination of the instrument and its expected realization.
Trading securities and trading liabilities
Trading securities and trading liabilities are recognized at fair value through current earnings. Trading inventory held for broker-dealer operations is included in trading

PART I, ITEM 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 16—FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS & LIABILITIES
securities and trading liabilities. Broker-dealer long positions are valued at bid price in the bid-ask spread. Short positions are valued at the ask price. Inventory positions are valued using observable inputs including current market transactions, benchmark yields, credit spreads, and consensus prepayment speeds. Trading loans are valued using observable inputs including current market transactions, swap rates, mortgage rates, and consensus prepayment speeds.
Trading Securities - SBA interest-only strips
Interest-only strips are valued at elected fair value based on an income approach using an internal valuation model. The internal valuation model includes assumptions regarding projections of future cash flows, prepayment rates, default rates and interest-only strip terms. These securities bear the risk of loan prepayment or default that may result in FHN not recovering all or a portion of its recorded investment. When appropriate, valuations are adjusted for various factors including default or prepayment status of the underlying SBA loans. Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, those estimated values may be higher or lower than the values that would have been used had a ready market for the securities existed and may change in the near term.
Securities available for sale and held to maturity
Valuations of debt securities are performed using observable inputs obtained from market transactions in similar securities. Typical inputs include benchmark yields, consensus prepayment speeds, and credit spreads. Trades from similar securities and broker quotes are used to support these valuations.
Loans held for sale
FHN determines the fair value of loans held for sale using either current transaction prices or discounted cash flow models. Fair values are determined using current transaction prices and/or values on similar assets when available, including committed bids for specific loans or loan portfolios. Uncommitted bids may be adjusted based on other available market information.
Fair value of residential real estate loans held for sale determined using a discounted cash flow model incorporates both observable and unobservable inputs. Inputs in the discounted cash flow model include current mortgage rates for similar products, estimated prepayment rates, foreclosure losses, and various loan performance measures (delinquency, LTV, credit score). Adjustments for delinquency and other differences in loan characteristics are typically reflected in the model’s discount rates. Loss severity trends and the value of underlying collateral are also considered in assessing the appropriate fair value for severely delinquent loans and loans in foreclosure. The valuation of HELOCs also incorporates estimated cancellation rates for loans expected to become delinquent.
Non-mortgage consumer loans held for sale are valued using committed bids for specific loans or loan portfolios or current market pricing for similar assets with adjustments for differences in credit standing (delinquency, historical default rates for similar loans), yield, collateral values and prepayment rates. If pricing for similar assets is not available, a discounted cash flow methodology is utilized, which incorporates all of these factors into an estimate of investor required yield for the discount rate.
FHN utilizes quoted market prices of similar instruments or broker and dealer quotations to value the SBA and USDA guaranteed loans. FHN values SBA-unguaranteed interests in loans held for sale based on individual loan characteristics, such as industry type and pay history which generally follows an income approach. Furthermore, these valuations are adjusted for changes in prepayment estimates and are reduced due to restrictions on trading. The fair value of other non-residential real estate loans held for sale is approximated by their carrying values based on current transaction values.
Mortgage loans held for investment at fair value option
The fair value of mortgage loans held for investment at fair value option is determined by a third party using a discounted cash flow model using various assumptions about future loan performance (constant prepayment rate, constant default rate and loss severity trends) and market discount rates.
Loans held for investment
The fair values of mortgage loans are estimated using an exit price methodology that is based on present values using the interest rate that would be charged for a similar loan to a borrower with similar risk, weighted for varying maturity dates and adjusted for a liquidity discount based on the estimated time period to complete a sale transaction with a market participant.
Other loans and leases are valued based on present values using the interest rate that would be charged for a similar instrument to a borrower with similar risk, applicable to each category of instruments, and adjusted for a liquidity discount based on the estimated time period to complete a sale transaction with a market participant.
For loans measured using the estimated fair value of collateral less costs to sell, fair value is estimated using appraisals of the collateral. Collateral values are monitored and additional write-downs are recognized if it is determined that the estimated collateral values have declined further. Estimated costs to sell are based on current amounts of disposal costs for similar assets. Carrying value is considered to reflect fair value for these loans.

2Q23 FORM 10-Q REPORT

PART I, ITEM 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 16—FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS & LIABILITIES
Derivative assets and liabilities
The fair value for forwards and futures contracts is based on current transactions involving identical securities. Futures contracts are exchange-traded and thus have no credit risk factor assigned as the risk of non-performance is limited to the clearinghouse used.
Valuations of other derivatives (primarily interest rate contracts) are based on inputs observed in active markets for similar instruments. Typical inputs include benchmark yields, option volatility and option skew. Centrally cleared derivatives are discounted using SOFR as required by clearinghouses. In measuring the fair value of these derivative assets and liabilities, FHN has elected to consider credit risk based on the net exposure to individual counterparties. Credit risk is mitigated for these instruments through the use of mutual margining and master netting agreements as well as collateral posting requirements. For derivative contracts with daily cash margin requirements that are considered settlements, the daily margin amount is netted within derivative assets or liabilities. Any remaining credit risk related to interest rate derivatives is considered in determining fair value through evaluation of additional factors such as client loan grades and debt ratings. Foreign currency related derivatives also utilize observable exchange rates in the determination of fair value. The determination of fair value for FHN’s derivative liabilities associated with its prior sales of Visa Class B shares are classified within Level 3 in the fair value measurements disclosure as previously discussed in the unobservable inputs discussion.
The fair value of risk participations is determined in reference to the fair value of the related derivative contract between the borrower and the lead bank in the participation structure, which is determined consistent with the valuation process discussed above. This value is adjusted for the pro rata portion of the reference derivative’s notional value and an assessment of credit risk for the referenced borrower.
OREO
OREO primarily consists of properties that have been acquired in satisfaction of debt. These properties are carried at the lower of the outstanding loan amount or estimated fair value less estimated costs to sell the real estate. Estimated fair value is determined using appraised values with subsequent adjustments for deterioration in values that are not reflected in the most recent appraisal.
Other assets
For disclosure purposes, other assets consist of tax credit investments, FRB and FHLB Stock, deferred compensation mutual funds and equity investments (including other mutual funds) with readily determinable fair values. Tax credit investments accounted for under the equity method are written down to estimated fair value quarterly based on the estimated value of the associated tax credits
which incorporates estimates of required yield for hypothetical investors. The fair value of all other tax credit investments is estimated using recent transaction information with adjustments for differences in individual investments. Deferred compensation mutual funds are recognized at fair value, which is based on quoted prices in active markets.
Investments in the stock of the Federal Reserve Bank and Federal Home Loan Banks are recognized at historical cost in the Consolidated Balance Sheets which is considered to approximate fair value. Investments in mutual funds are measured at the funds’ reported closing net asset values. Investments in equity securities are valued using quoted market prices when available.
Defined maturity deposits
The fair value of these deposits is estimated by discounting future cash flows to their present value. Future cash flows are discounted by using the current market rates of similar instruments applicable to the remaining maturity. For disclosure purposes, defined maturity deposits include all time deposits.
Short-term financial liabilities
The fair value of federal funds purchased, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, and other short-term borrowings are approximated by the book value. The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the relatively short time between the origination of the instrument and its expected realization.
Loan commitments
Fair values of these commitments are based on fees charged to enter into similar agreements taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing.
Other commitments
Fair values of these commitments are based on fees charged to enter into similar agreements.
The following fair value estimates are determined as of a specific point in time utilizing various assumptions and estimates. The use of assumptions and various valuation techniques, as well as the absence of secondary markets for certain financial instruments, reduces the comparability of fair value disclosures between financial institutions. Due to market illiquidity, the fair values for loans and leases, loans held for sale, and term borrowings as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, involve the use of significant internally-developed pricing assumptions for certain components of these line items. The assumptions and valuations utilized for this disclosure are considered to reflect inputs that market participants would use in transactions involving these instruments as of the measurement date. The valuations of legacy assets, particularly consumer loans and TRUPS loans within the

Corporate segment, are influenced by changes in economic conditions since origination and risk perceptions of the financial sector. These considerations affect the estimate of a potential acquirer’s cost of capital and cash flow volatility assumptions from these assets and the resulting fair value measurements may depart significantly from FHN’s internal estimates of the intrinsic value of these assets.
Assets and liabilities that are not financial instruments have not been included in the following table such as the value of long-term relationships with deposit and trust clients, premises and equipment, goodwill and other
intangibles, deferred taxes, and certain other assets and other liabilities. Additionally, these measurements are solely for financial instruments as of the measurement date and do not consider the earnings potential of our various business lines. Accordingly, the total of the fair value amounts does not represent, and should not be construed to represent, the underlying value of FHN.

PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS (MD&A)
Introduction
First Horizon Corporation (NYSE common stock trading symbol “FHN”) is a financial holding company headquartered in Memphis, Tennessee. FHN’s principal subsidiary, and only banking subsidiary, is First Horizon Bank. Through the Bank and other subsidiaries, FHN offers regional banking, mortgage lending, specialized commercial lending, commercial leasing and equipment financing, brokerage, wealth management, capital markets, and other financial services to commercial, consumer, and governmental clients throughout the U.S.
At June 30, 2023, FHN had over 450 business locations in 24 states, including over 400 banking centers in 12 states, and employed approximately 7,300 associates.
This MD&A should be read in conjunction with the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1, as well as other information contained in this document and FHN's 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Executive Overview

Significant Events and Transactions
TD Merger Termination
On February 27, 2022, FHN entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the TD Merger Agreement) with The Toronto-Dominion Bank, a Canadian chartered bank (TD), and certain TD subsidiaries. On May 4, 2023, FHN and TD mutually terminated the TD Merger Agreement. Under the terms of the termination agreement, TD made a $200 million cash payment to FHN, in addition to the $25 million fee reimbursement due to FHN pursuant to the TD Merger Agreement. As part of the $200 million cash payment received, FHN contributed $50 million to the First Horizon Foundation.
On February 28, 2022, in connection with the execution of the TD Merger Agreement, FHN issued $494 million of Series G Perpetual Convertible Preferred Stock (the Series G Convertible Preferred Stock). The Series G Convertible Preferred Stock was convertible into up to 4.9% of the outstanding shares of FHN common stock in certain
circumstances, including termination of the TD Merger Agreement. Because regulatory approval of the TD Transaction was not obtained, conversion occurred at a fixed rate of 4,000 shares of common stock for each share of Series G Convertible Preferred Stock (19,742,776 common shares) which reflected a conversion price of $25 per share. Following conversion to common stock, the Series G represented 3.5% of FHN's common shares outstanding as of June 30, 2023.
Other Transactions
On May 26, 2023, FHN retired $450 million in senior notes and recorded $1 million in gain on debt extinguishment.
On August 3, 2023, FHN announced a five-year employment agreement with Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer D. Bryan Jordan. A copy of the agreement has been filed with a recent Current Report on Form 8-K, and is listed as exhibit 10.2 to this report.
Financial Performance Summary
Second Quarter 2023 Highlights
FHN reported second quarter 2023 net income available to common shareholders of $317 million, or $0.56 per diluted share, compared to $243 million, or $0.43 per diluted share, in first quarter 2023 and $166 million, or $0.29 per diluted share, in second quarter 2022.
Net interest income of $630 million declined $58 million from first quarter 2023 as the benefit of higher rates and loan balances was more than offset by higher funding costs. Compared to second quarter 2022, net interest income increased $88 million, driven by higher earning asset yields, loan growth, and higher average investment portfolio balances, partially offset by higher funding costs.
Provision for credit losses remained stable at $50 million in second quarter 2023 compared to first quarter 2023 reflecting the impact of loan growth and a modest increase in net charge-offs. The provision for credit losses increased $20 million compared to $30 million in second
quarter 2022, reflecting the impact of loan growth and potential economic instability projected in the macroeconomic forecast.
Noninterest income of $400 million increased $229 million compared to first quarter 2023 largely driven by a $225 million gain on the TD merger agreement termination. Noninterest income increased $199 million compared to second quarter 2022 largely driven by the gain on merger termination and higher deferred compensation income, partially offset by lower fixed income and mortgage banking and title income.
Noninterest expense of $555 million increased $77 million from first quarter 2023, largely reflecting the impact of a $50 million contribution to the First Horizon Foundation, higher personnel expense, and $15 million in derivative valuation adjustments on prior Visa Class-B share sales. Compared with second quarter 2022, noninterest expense increased $67 million largely attributable to the $50

million contribution and higher personnel expense. Merger and integration planning expenses related to the TD Transaction totaled $30 million for second quarter 2023 compared to $21 million in first quarter 2023. Merger and integration expenses related to the TD Transaction and the IBKC Merger totaled $38 million in second quarter 2022.
Year-to-Date and Period End Highlights
For the six months ended June 30, 2023, net income available to common shareholders was $560 million, or $1.00 per diluted share, compared to $352 million, or $0.63 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2022.
Net interest income increased $297 million largely driven by higher earning asset yields, loan growth, and higher investment portfolio balances, partially offset by higher funding costs. Provision for credit losses increased $110 million largely from loan growth and potential economic instability projected in the macroeconomic forecast. Noninterest income increased $141 million, or 33%, primarily from the gain on merger agreement termination, partially offset by lower fixed income and mortgage banking and title income. Noninterest expense increased
$51 million, or 5%, largely attributable to the $50 million contribution made to the First Horizon Foundation.
Period-end loans and leases of $61.3 billion increased $3.2 billion, or 5%, from December 31, 2022 driven by commercial loan growth of $2.0 billion and consumer loan growth of $1.2 billion.
Period-end deposits of $65.4 billion increased $1.9 billion, or 3%, from December 31, 2022 driven by a $6.6 billion increase in interest-bearing deposits partially offset by a $4.7 billion decrease in noninterest-bearing deposits.
Tier 1 risk-based capital and total risk-based capital ratios at June 30, 2023 were 12.09% and 13.58%, an improvement from 11.92% and 13.33% at December 31, 2022, respectively. The CET1 ratio was 11.08% at June 30, 2023 compared to 10.17% at December 31, 2022.
The following portions of this MD&A focus in more detail on the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the three months ended March 31, 2023, and the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and on information about FHN's financial condition, loan and lease portfolio, liquidity, funding sources, capital and other matters.

Results of Operations
Net Interest Income
Net interest income is FHN's largest source of revenue and is the difference between the interest earned on interest-earning assets (generally loans, leases and investment securities) and the interest expense incurred in connection with interest-bearing liabilities (generally deposits and borrowed funds). The level of net interest income is primarily a function of the difference between the effective yield on average interest-earning assets and the effective cost of interest-bearing liabilities. These factors are influenced by the pricing and mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities which, in turn, are impacted by external factors such as local economic conditions, competition for loans and deposits, the monetary policy of the FRB and market interest rates.
The following tables present the major components of net interest income and net interest margin:

PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS (MD&A)
Second Quarter 2023 versus First Quarter 2023
Net interest income of $630 million in second quarter 2023 decreased $58 million from first quarter 2023 and the net interest margin declined 50 basis points to 3.38%. The benefit of higher rates and loan growth was more than offset by higher funding costs driven by increased competition. Loan yield increased 25 basis points while the cost of interest-bearing deposits increased 82 basis points.
Average earning assets of $75.3 billion in second quarter 2023 increased $3.3 billion from first quarter 2023 largely due to a $1.9 billion increase in average loans and leases, driven by a $1.2 billion increase in commercial loans and a $647 million increase in consumer loans, and a $1.6 billion increase in average interest-bearing cash.
Second Quarter 2023 versus Second Quarter 2022
Net interest income increased $88 million from second quarter 2022 driven by higher earning asset yields, loan growth, and higher investment portfolio balances partially offset by higher funding costs.
Second quarter 2023 net interest margin increased 64 basis points from 2.74% in second quarter 2022, driven by the impact of higher yields on earning assets, partially offset by higher funding costs.
Average earning assets decreased $4.4 billion from second quarter 2022 largely driven by a $7.9 billion decrease in average interest-bearing deposits with banks, offset by a $4.3 billion increase in loans and leases and a $411 million increase in investment securities.

2Q23 FORM 10-Q REPORT

PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS (MD&A)
For the six months ended June 30, 2023, net interest income of $1.3 billion increased $297 million from the same period one year ago largely driven by higher earning asset yields, loan growth, and higher investment portfolio balances partially offset by higher funding costs.
Total average earning assets decreased $7.2 billion in the first six months of 2023 largely due to lower levels of interest-bearing cash offset by loan growth.
The year-to-date net interest margin of 3.62% increased 107 basis points compared to 2.55% for the same period of 2022 as earning asset yields increased 257 basis points and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased 226 basis points.

Provision for Credit Losses
Provision for credit losses includes the provision for loan and lease losses and the provision for unfunded lending commitments. The provision for credit losses is the expense necessary to maintain the ALLL and the accrual for unfunded lending commitments at levels appropriate to absorb management’s estimate of credit losses expected over the life of the loan and lease portfolio and the portfolio of unfunded loan commitments.
For the second quarter 2023, provision for credit losses of $50 million was consistent with first quarter 2023, largely
reflecting the impact of loan growth and a modest increase in net charge-offs. The second quarter 2023 provision increased $20 million compared to second quarter 2022 and the year-to-date provision increased $110 million compared to the same period one year ago, largely from loan growth and potential economic instability projected in the macroeconomic forecast.

Second Quarter 2023 versus First Quarter 2023
Noninterest income of $400 million increased $229 million, or 134%, from first quarter 2023, primarily as a result of the $225 million gain resulting from the TD merger agreement termination.
Fixed income of $30 million decreased $9 million from the prior quarter. Fixed income average daily revenue of $348 thousand decreased from $437 thousand in first quarter 2023, a decrease of 20% reflecting continued challenging market conditions.
Mortgage banking and title income of $6 million increased $1 million driven by higher volume and gain on sale spreads.
Deferred compensation income of $8 million increased $5 million and is largely offset in noninterest expense.

Second Quarter 2023 versus Second Quarter 2022
Noninterest income for second quarter 2023 increased $199 million, or 99%, compared to second quarter 2022, primarily driven by the gain on merger agreement termination, offset by lower fixed income and mortgage banking and title income. Second quarter 2023 results were also impacted by a $25 million increase in deferred compensation income, reflecting fluctuations in equity market valuations relative to the prior year.
Fixed income of $30 million decreased $21 million from second quarter 2022, largely reflecting less favorable market conditions.
Mortgage banking and title income decreased $28 million reflecting the impact of a $12 million gain recognized on the sale of mortgage servicing rights in second quarter 2022 and a decline in mortgage sales volume.

Noninterest expense of $555 million increased $77 million, or 16%, compared with first quarter 2023, largely driven by a $50 million contribution made to the First Horizon Foundation as part of the $200 million received from the TD merger termination. Personnel expense increased $14 million largely reflecting higher incentive-based compensation and deferred compensation expense. Other expense increased $8 million, primarily from derivative valuation adjustments related to prior Visa Class-B share sales. Results also reflect a $4 million increase in legal and professional fees largely attributable to higher merger and integration related costs.
Second Quarter 2023 versus Second Quarter 2022
Noninterest expense of $555 million increased $67 million, or 14%, from second quarter 2022, largely driven by the $50 million contribution made to the First Horizon Foundation in second quarter 2023. Personnel expense increased $20 million largely attributable to higher deferred compensation expense partially offset by lower incentive-based compensation. The $7 million increase in advertising and public relations expense was partially attributable to a new-to-bank deposit campaign and brand awareness initiatives. Legal and professional fees decreased $5 million from second quarter 2022 largely attributable to lower merger and integration related costs.

Personnel expense of $556 million increased $11 million reflecting higher deferred compensation expense partially offset by lower incentive-based compensation expense.
Deposit insurance expense of $26 million increased $11 million largely due to an increase in the FDIC initial base deposit insurance assessment rate that went into effect in first quarter 2023 for all insured depository institutions.

Legal and professional fees decreased $20 million largely attributable to lower merger and integration related expense.
Total merger and integration related expense was $51 million for the first six months of 2023 compared to $75 million for the same period of 2022.
Income Taxes
FHN recorded income tax expense of $96 million in second quarter 2023 compared to $76 million in first quarter 2023 and $48 million in second quarter 2022. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, FHN recorded income tax expense of $171 million and $105 million, respectively.
The effective tax rate was approximately 22.6%, 22.7%, and 21.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2023, March 31, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively. The effective tax rate was approximately 22.7% and 21.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
FHN’s effective tax rate is favorably affected by recurring items such as bank-owned life insurance, tax-exempt income, and tax credits and other tax benefits from tax credit investments. The effective rate is unfavorably affected by the non-deductibility of portions of: FDIC
premium, executive compensation and merger expenses. FHN’s effective tax rate also may be affected by items that may occur in any given period but are not consistent from period to period, such as changes in unrecognized tax benefits. The rate also may be affected by items resulting from business combinations.
A deferred tax asset or deferred tax liability is recognized for the tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing assets and liabilities. The tax consequence is calculated by applying current enacted statutory tax rates to these temporary differences in future years. As of June 30, 2023, FHN’s gross DTA and gross DTL were $760 million and $452 million, respectively, resulting in a net DTA of $308 million at June 30, 2023, compared with a net DTA of $313 million at December 31, 2022.

2Q23 FORM 10-Q REPORT

PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS (MD&A)
As of June 30, 2023, FHN had deferred tax asset balances related to federal and state income tax carryforwards of $31 million and $2 million, respectively, which will expire at various dates.
Based on current analysis, FHN believes that its ability to realize the DTA is more likely than not. FHN monitors its
DTA and the need for a valuation allowance on a quarterly basis. A significant adverse change in FHN’s taxable earnings outlook could result in the need for a valuation allowance.
Business Segment Results
FHN's reportable segments include Regional Banking, Specialty Banking and Corporate. See Note 12 - Business Segment Information for additional disclosures related to FHN's segments.
Regional Banking
The Regional Banking segment generated pre-tax income of $356 million for second quarter 2023, an increase of $26 million compared to first quarter 2023, largely driven by an increase in net interest income. Net interest income of $612 million increased $26 million reflecting the benefit of higher interest rates and average loan balances, partially offset by higher funding costs.
Pre-tax income for second quarter 2023 increased $128 million compared to $228 million for second quarter 2022. Net interest income increased $147 million from second quarter 2022 driven by higher earning asset yields and loan growth partially offset by higher funding costs. The provision for credit losses decreased $9 million. Noninterest income decreased $6 million and noninterest expense increased $22 million compared to second quarter 2022.
Pre-tax income of $687 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 increased $193 million compared to the same period of 2022, largely from a $293 million increase in revenue primarily driven by higher net interest income. Results also reflect a $63 million increase in provision for credit losses and a $37 million increase in noninterest expense.
Specialty Banking
Pre-tax income in the Specialty Banking segment of $79 million for second quarter 2023 increased $1 million compared to first quarter 2023, driven by a $3 million decrease in noninterest expense offset by a $2 million decrease in revenue.
Fixed income of $31 million decreased $8 million, driven by continuing challenging market conditions. Mortgage banking and title income of $6 million increased $1 million reflecting higher volume and gain on sale spreads.
Pre-tax income in the Specialty Banking segment decreased $62 million compared to second quarter 2022 largely driven by lower revenue and higher provision for credit losses, partially offset by lower noninterest expense. The decline in revenue was primarily attributable
to lower fixed income and mortgage banking and title income, as well as a decline in net interest income. The decline in noninterest expense was largely driven by lower incentive-based compensation expense tied to the decline in fixed income and mortgage banking and title income.
Pre-tax income of $155 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 decreased $105 million from the same period of 2022 largely reflecting a $100 million decrease in noninterest income tied to lower fixed income and mortgage banking and title income.
Corporate
Pre-tax loss for the Corporate segment was $10 million for second quarter 2023 compared to $77 million for first quarter 2023, reflecting a $233 million increase in noninterest income offset by an $87 million decrease in net interest income and an $81 million increase in noninterest expense. The increase in noninterest income was largely driven by the $225 million gain on the TD merger termination. The decline in net interest income was attributable to the impact of funds transfer pricing. The increase in noninterest expense was largely attributable to a $50 million contribution to the First Horizon Foundation, higher personnel expense, and $15 million in derivative valuation adjustments from prior Visa Class-B share sales. Merger and integration expenses were $30 million compared to $21 million in the prior quarter.
Pre-tax loss in the Corporate segment improved $134 million compared to second quarter 2022. Noninterest income increased $253 million, largely from the gain on the TD merger termination. Net interest income decreased $47 million from the impact of funds transfer pricing. Noninterest expense increased $71 million compared to the second quarter 2022, largely reflecting a $50 million contribution to the First Horizon Foundation and higher personnel expense. Merger and integration expenses were $30 million compared to $38 million in second quarter 2022.
Pre-tax loss of $86 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 improved $189 million compared to the same period of 2022 largely driven by the $225 million gain on the TD merger agreement termination offset by the $50 million contribution to the First Horizon Foundation. Results also reflect a $24 million decrease in merger and integration related expense.

Analysis of Financial Condition

Total period-end assets were $85.1 billion as of June 30, 2023 compared to $79.0 billion at December 31, 2022. The increase in total assets during 2023 was largely driven by a $3.1 billion increase in interest-bearing deposits with banks, driven by higher FHLB borrowings and deposit growth, and a $3.2 billion increase in loans and leases.
Earning assets consist of loans and leases, loans held for sale, investment securities, and other earning assets, such as trading securities and interest-bearing deposits with banks. A detailed discussion of the major components of earning assets is provided in the following sections.
Loans and Leases
Period-end loans and leases of $61.3 billion as of June 30, 2023 increased $3.2 billion, or 5%, compared to December 31, 2022. Year-to-date loan growth included a $2.0 billion increase in commercial loans and leases primarily from C&I loan growth and a $1.2 billion increase
in consumer loans primarily from consumer real estate loan growth.
The following table provides detail regarding FHN's loans and leases as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Loans Held for Sale
In 2020, FHN obtained IBKC's mortgage banking operations which includes origination and servicing of residential first lien mortgages that conform to standards established by GSEs that are major investors in U.S. home mortgages but can also consist of junior lien and jumbo loans secured by residential property. These loans are primarily sold to private companies that are unaffiliated with the GSEs on a servicing-released basis. For further detail, see Note 5 - Mortgage Banking Activity.
The legacy FHN loans HFS portfolio consists of small business, other consumer loans, mortgage warehouse, USDA and home equity loans.
On June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, loans HFS were $789 million and $590 million, respectively. Held-for-sale consumer mortgage loans secured by residential real estate in process of foreclosure totaled $1 million and $3 million at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Asset Quality
Loan and Lease Portfolio Composition
FHN groups its loans into portfolio segments based on internal classifications reflecting the manner in which the ALLL is established and how credit risk is measured, monitored, and reported. From time to time, and if conditions are such that certain subsegments are uniquely affected by economic or market conditions or are
experiencing greater deterioration than other components of the loan portfolio, management may determine the ALLL at a more granular level. Commercial loans and leases are composed of C&I loans and leases and CRE loans. Consumer loans are composed of consumer real estate loans and credit card and other

loans. FHN has a concentration of residential real estate loans (22% and 21% of total loans at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively). Industry concentrations are discussed under the C&I heading below.
Credit underwriting guidelines are outlined in Item 7 of FHN’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 in the Asset Quality Section within the
Analysis of Financial Condition discussion. FHN’s credit underwriting guidelines and loan product offerings as of June 30, 2023 are generally consistent with those reported and disclosed in FHN’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Commercial Loan and Lease Portfolios
C&I
C&I loans are the largest component of the loan portfolio, comprising 54% and 55% of total loans as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The C&I portfolio increased $1.3 billion to $33.1 billion as of June 30, 2023 compared to December 31, 2022 and is comprised of loans and leases used for general business purposes. Products offered in the C&I portfolio include term loan financing of owner-occupied real estate and fixed assets, direct financing and sales-type leases, working capital lines of credit, and trade credit enhancement through letters of credit.
The increase in C&I loans from December 31, 2022 was largely driven by growth in loans to mortgage companies
and real estate rental & leasing. The largest geographical concentrations of balances in the C&I portfolio as of June 30, 2023 were in Tennessee (21%), Florida (13%), Texas (11%), North Carolina (7%), Louisiana (7%), Georgia (5%), and California (5%). No other state represented more than 5% of the portfolio.
The following table provides the composition of the C&I portfolio by industry as of June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022. For purposes of this disclosure, industries are determined based on the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) industry codes used by Federal statistical agencies in classifying business establishments for the collection, analysis, and publication of statistical data related to the U.S. business economy.

Industry Concentrations
Loan concentrations exist when there are loans to numerous borrowers engaged in similar activities that would cause them to be similarly impacted by economic or other conditions. Loans to mortgage companies and borrowers in the finance and insurance industry were 20% of FHN’s C&I loan portfolio as of both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, and as a result could be affected by
items that uniquely impact the financial services industry. Loans to borrowers in the real estate rental and leasing industry were 11% and 10% of FHN's C&I portfolio as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. As of June 30, 2023, FHN did not have any other concentrations of C&I loans in any single industry of 10% or more of total loans.

PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS (MD&A)
Loans to Mortgage Companies
Loans to mortgage companies were 8% of the C&I portfolio as of June 30, 2023 and 7% as of December 31, 2022. This portfolio includes commercial lines of credit to qualified mortgage companies primarily for the temporary warehousing of eligible mortgage loans prior to the borrower’s sale of those mortgage loans to third-party investors and generally fluctuates with mortgage rates and seasonal factors. Generally, new loan originations to mortgage lenders increase when there is a decline in mortgage rates and decrease when rates rise; in 2023, rates rose. In periods of economic uncertainty, this trend may not occur even if interest rates are declining. In second quarter 2023, 89% of the loan originations were home purchases and 11% were refinance transactions.
Finance and Insurance
The finance and insurance component represented 12% of the C&I portfolio as of June 30, 2023 and 13% as of December 31, 2022, and includes TRUPs (i.e., long-term unsecured loans to bank and insurance-related businesses), loans to bank holding companies, and asset-based lending to consumer finance companies. As of June 30, 2023, asset-based lending to consumer finance companies represented approximately $2.0 billion of the finance and insurance component.
Paycheck Protection Program
In 2020, Congress created the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) in response to the economic disruption associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. Under the PPP, qualifying businesses could receive loans from private lenders, such as FHN, that are fully guaranteed by the Small Business Administration. These loans potentially are partly or fully forgivable, depending upon the borrower’s
use of the funds and maintenance of employment levels. To the extent forgiven, the borrower is relieved from payment while the lender is still paid from the program.
As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the C&I portfolio included PPP loans of $44 million and $76 million, respectively, which are fully government guaranteed with the SBA. Due to the government guarantee and forgiveness provisions, PPP loans are considered to have no credit risk and do not affect the amount of provision and ALLL recorded. As a result, no ALLL is recorded for PPP loans as of June 30, 2023, and FHN has assigned a risk weight of zero to PPP loans for regulatory capital purposes.
FHN continues to work with its clients that have applied for and received PPP loan forgiveness.

The CRE portfolio totaled $13.9 billion as of June 30, 2023 and $13.2 billion as of December 31, 2022. The CRE portfolio reflects financings for both commercial construction and nonconstruction loans. The largest geographical concentrations of CRE loan balances as of June 30, 2023 were in Florida (25%), Texas (13%), North Carolina (11%), Georgia (11%), Tennessee (9%), Louisiana (9%), and Alabama (5%). No other state represented more than 5% of the portfolio. This portfolio contains loans, draws on lines, and letters of credit to commercial real estate developers for the construction and mini-permanent financing of income-producing real estate. Subcategories of the CRE portfolio consist of multi-family (29%), office (21%), retail (17%), industrial (17%), hospitality (10%), land/land development (2%), and other (4%).
Consumer Loan Portfolios
Consumer Real Estate
The consumer real estate portfolio totaled $13.5 billion and $12.3 billion as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and is primarily composed of home equity lines and installment loans. The largest geographical concentrations of balances as of June 30, 2023 were in Florida (29%), Tennessee (22%), Texas (10%), Louisiana (8%), North Carolina (7%), New York (5%) and Georgia (5%). No other state represented more than 5% of the portfolio.
As of June 30, 2023, approximately 89% of the consumer real estate portfolio was in a first lien position. At origination, the weighted average FICO score of this portfolio was 758 and the refreshed FICO scores averaged 756 as of June 30, 2023, no significant change from FICO scores of 757 and 754, respectively, as of December 31, 2022. Generally, performance of this portfolio is affected by life events that affect borrowers’ finances, the level of unemployment, and home prices.
As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, FHN had held-for-investment consumer mortgage loans secured by real estate that were in the process of foreclosure totaling $22 million and $42 million, respectively.
HELOCs comprised $2.2 billion and $2.0 billion of the consumer real estate portfolio as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. FHN’s HELOCs typically have a 5 or 10 year draw period followed by a 10 or 20 year repayment period, respectively. During the draw period, a borrower is able to draw on the line and is only required to make interest payments. The line is frozen if a borrower becomes past due on payments. Once the draw period has ended, the line is closed and the borrower is required to make both principal and interest payments monthly until the loan matures. The principal payment generally is fully amortizing, but payment amounts will adjust when variable rates reset to reflect changes in the prime rate.

2Q23 FORM 10-Q REPORT

PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS (MD&A)
As of June 30, 2023, approximately 93% of FHN's HELOCs were in the draw period compared to 92% at December 31, 2022. It is expected that $543 million, or 26%, of HELOCs currently in the draw period will enter the repayment period during the next 60 months, based on current terms. Generally, delinquencies for HELOCs that have entered the repayment period are initially higher than HELOCs still in the draw period because of the
increased minimum payment requirement. However, over time, performance of these loans usually begins to stabilize. HELOCs nearing the end of the draw period are closely monitored.
The following table presents HELOCs currently in the draw period, broken down by months remaining in the draw period.

Credit Card and Other
The credit card and other portfolio, which is primarily within the Regional Banking segment, totaled $813 million as of June 30, 2023 and $840 million as of December 31, 2022. This portfolio primarily consists of consumer-related
credits, including home equity and other personal consumer loans, credit card receivables, and automobile loans. The $27 million decrease was driven by net repayments in credit cards and other installment loans, partially offset by an increase in consumer construction loans.
Allowance for Credit Losses
The ACL is maintained at a level sufficient to provide appropriate reserves to absorb estimated future credit losses in accordance with GAAP. For additional information regarding the ACL, see Note 4 of this Report and "Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates" and Note 4 in FHN's 2022 Form 10-K.
The ALLL increased to $737 million as of June 30, 2023 from $685 million as of December 31, 2022. The increase
in the ALLL balance as of June 30, 2023 reflects the impact of loan growth and an uncertain macroeconomic forecast. The ALLL to total loans and leases ratio increased 2 basis points to 1.20%. The ACL to total loans and leases ratio increased to 1.35% as of June 30, 2023 from 1.33% as of December 31, 2022.

Consolidated Net Charge-offs
Net charge-offs in second quarter 2023 were $23 million, or an annualized 16 basis points of total loans and leases, compared to net charge-offs of $12 million, or 9 basis points of total loans and leases, in second quarter 2022. The $11 million increase in net charge-offs was driven by a $12 million increase in the commercial loan portfolio offset by a $1 million decrease in the consumer loan portfolio.

Nonperforming Assets
Nonperforming loans are loans placed on nonaccrual if it becomes evident that full collection of principal and interest is at risk, if impairment has been recognized as a partial charge-off of principal balance due to insufficient collateral value and past due status, or (on a case-by-case basis) if FHN continues to receive payments but there are other borrower-specific issues. Included in nonaccruals are loans for which FHN continues to receive payments, including residential real estate loans where the borrower has been discharged of personal obligation through bankruptcy. NPAs consist of nonperforming loans and
OREO (excluding OREO from government insured mortgages).
Total NPAs (including NPLs HFS) increased to $410 million as of June 30, 2023 from $327 million as of December 31, 2022, largely driven by commercial loans. The nonperforming loans and leases ratio increased 12 basis points to 0.66% as of June 30, 2023.

Potential problem assets represent those assets where information about possible credit problems of borrowers has caused management to have serious doubts about the borrower’s ability to comply with present repayment terms and includes loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing. This definition is believed to be substantially consistent with the standards established by Federal
banking regulators for loans classified as substandard. Potential problem assets in the loan portfolio were $623 million on June 30, 2023 and $492 million on December 31, 2022. The current expectation of losses from potential problem assets has been included in management’s analysis for assessing the adequacy of the allowance for loan and lease losses.
Modifications to Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty
As part of FHN’s ongoing risk management practices, FHN attempts to work with borrowers when appropriate to extend or modify loan terms to better align with their current ability to repay. Modifications to loans are made in accordance with internal policies and guidelines which conform to regulatory guidance. Each occurrence is unique to the borrower and is evaluated separately. See
Note 1 - Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies, Note 3 - Loans and Leases and Note 4 - Allowance for Credit Losses for further discussion regarding troubled loan modifications.

2Q23 FORM 10-Q REPORT

PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS (MD&A)
Commercial Loan Modifications
As part of FHN’s credit risk management governance processes, the Loan Rehab and Recovery Department (LRRD) is responsible for managing most commercial relationships with borrowers whose financial condition has deteriorated to such an extent that the credits are individually reviewed for expected credit losses, classified as substandard or worse, placed on nonaccrual status, foreclosed or in process of foreclosure, or in active or contemplated litigation. LRRD has the authority and responsibility to enter into workout and/or rehabilitation agreements with troubled commercial borrowers in order to mitigate and/or minimize the amount of credit losses recognized from these problem assets. While every circumstance is different, LRRD will generally use forbearance agreements (generally 6-12 months) as an element of commercial loan workouts, which might include reduced interest rates, reduced payments, release of guarantor, term extensions or entering into short sale agreements. Principal forgiveness may be granted in specific workout circumstances.
The individual expected credit loss assessments completed on commercial loans are used in evaluating the appropriateness of qualitative adjustments to quantitatively modeled loss expectations for loans that are not considered collateral dependent. If a loan is collateral dependent, the carrying amount of a loan is written down to the net realizable value of the collateral. Each assessment considers any modified terms and is comprehensive to ensure appropriate assessment of expected credit losses.
Consumer Loan Modifications
FHN does not currently participate in any of the loan modification programs sponsored by the U.S. government but does generally structure modified consumer loans
using the parameters of the former Home Affordable Modification Program.
Within the HELOC and real estate installment loans classes of the consumer portfolio segment, troubled loans are typically modified by reducing the interest rate (in increments of 25 basis points to a minimum of 1% for up to 5 years) and a possible maturity date extension to reach an affordable housing debt-to-income ratio. After 5 years, the interest rate generally returns to the original interest rate prior to modification; for certain modifications, the modified interest rate increases 2% per year until the original interest rate prior to modification is achieved. Permanent mortgage troubled loans are typically modified by reducing the interest rate (in increments of 25 basis points to a minimum of 2% for up to 5 years) and a possible maturity date extension to reach an affordable housing debt-to-income ratio. After 5 years, the interest rate steps up 1 percent every year until it reaches the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation Weekly Survey Rate cap. Contractual maturities may be extended to 40 years on permanent mortgages and to 30 years for consumer real estate loans. Within the credit card class of the consumer portfolio segment, troubled loans are typically modified through either a short-term credit card hardship program or a longer-term credit card workout program. In the credit card hardship program, borrowers may be granted rate and payment reductions for 6 months to 1 year. In the credit card workout program, clients are granted a rate reduction to 0% and term extensions for up to 5 years to pay off the remaining balance. Consumer loans may also be modified through court-imposed principal reductions in bankruptcy proceedings, which FHN is required to honor unless a borrower reaffirms the related debt.

Investment Securities
FHN’s investment securities portfolio consists principally of debt securities available for sale. FHN maintains a highly-rated securities portfolio consisting primarily of government agency issued mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations. The securities portfolio provides a source of income and liquidity and is an important tool used to balance the interest rate risk of the loan and deposit portfolios. The securities portfolio is periodically evaluated in light of established ALM objectives, changing market conditions that could affect
the profitability of the portfolio, the regulatory environment, and the level of interest rate risk to which FHN is exposed. These evaluations may result in steps taken to adjust the overall balance sheet positioning.
Investment securities were $9.9 billion and $10.2 billion on June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, representing 12% and 13% of total assets, respectively. See Note 2 - Investment Securities for more information about the securities portfolio.
Deposits
Total deposits of $65.4 billion as of June 30, 2023 increased $1.9 billion from December 31, 2022 as a result of a $6.6 billion increase in interest-bearing deposits partially offset by a $4.7 billion decrease in noninterest-bearing deposits. Deposit growth in the first half of 2023 reflects continued positive momentum from FHN's first
post-pandemic new-to-bank deposit marketing campaign which was launched in February, as well as increased marketing investments to deepen relationships among existing customers.

FHN continues to maintain a well-diversified and stable funding mix across its footprint:
At June 30, 2023, commercial deposits were $32.5 billion, or 49% of total deposits, consumer deposits were $29.2 billion, or 45% of total deposits, and brokered deposits were $3.7 billion, or 6% of total deposits.
At June 30, 2023, 37% of deposits were associated with Tennessee, 19% with Florida, 12% with Louisiana, and 12% with North Carolina, with no other state above 10%.
Total estimated uninsured deposits were $25.5 billion and $30.3 billion as of June 30, 2023 and
December 31, 2022, representing 39% and 48% of total deposits, respectively.
Of the uninsured deposits at June 30, 2023, $4.5 billion, or 7% of total deposits, were collateralized.
See Table I.2.2 and I.2.3 - Average Balances, Net Interest Income and Yields/Rates in this Report for information on average deposits including average rates paid.

Short-Term Borrowings
Short-term borrowings include federal funds purchased, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, trading liabilities, and other short-term borrowings. Total short-term borrowings increased to $7.1 billion as of June 30, 2023 compared to $2.8 billion as of December 31, 2022, largely from an increase in FHLB borrowings.
Short-term borrowings balances fluctuate largely based on the level of FHLB borrowing as a result of loan demand, deposit levels and balance sheet funding strategies.
Trading liabilities fluctuate based on various factors, including levels of trading securities and hedging strategies. Federal funds purchased fluctuates depending on the amount of excess funding of FHN’s correspondent bank customers. Balances of securities sold under agreements to repurchase fluctuate based on cost attractiveness relative to FHLB borrowing levels and the ability to pledge securities toward such transactions.

Term Borrowings
Term borrowings include senior and subordinated borrowings with original maturities greater than one year. Total term borrowings were $1.2 billion as of June 30, 2023 compared to $1.6 billion at December 31, 2022. The decrease in term borrowings was attributable to the retirement of $450 million in senior notes on May 26, 2023.

(a)The modified CECL transitional amount includes the impact to retained earnings from the initial adoption of CECL plus 25% of the change in the adjusted allowance for credit losses since FHN’s initial adoption of CECL through December 31, 2021. For June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, 50% and 25%, respectively, of the full amount is phased out and not included in Common Equity Tier 1 capital.
(b)The $94 million carrying value of the Series D preferred stock does not qualify as Tier 1 capital because the earliest redemption date is less than five years from the issuance date, which was re-set to July 1, 2020 when the IBKC merger closed.
(c)Tangible common equity to tangible assets and adjusted tangible common equity to risk-weighted assets are non-GAAP measures and are reconciled to total equity to total assets (GAAP) in the Non-GAAP to GAAP Reconciliation - Table I.2.25.
Banking regulators define minimum capital ratios for bank holding companies and their bank subsidiaries. Based on the capital rules and definitions prescribed by the banking regulators, should any depository institution’s capital ratios decline below predetermined levels, it would become subject to a series of increasingly restrictive regulatory actions.
The system categorizes a depository institution’s capital position into one of five categories ranging from well-capitalized to critically under-capitalized. For an institution the size of FHN to qualify as well-capitalized, Common Equity Tier 1, Tier 1 Capital, Total Capital, and Leverage capital ratios must be at least 6.50%, 8.00%, 10.00%, and 5.00%, respectively. Furthermore, a capital conservation buffer of 50 basis points above these levels must be maintained on the Common Equity Tier 1, Tier 1 Capital and Total Capital ratios to avoid restrictions on dividends, share repurchases and certain discretionary bonuses.
As of June 30, 2023, each of FHN and First Horizon Bank had sufficient capital to qualify as well-capitalized institutions and to meet the capital conservation buffer requirement. Capital ratios for both FHN and First Horizon Bank are calculated under the final rule issued by the banking regulators in 2020 to delay the effects of CECL on regulatory capital for two years, followed by a three-year transition period.
FHN and First Horizon Bank's risk-based regulatory capital ratios increased in second quarter 2023 relative to year-end 2022 primarily from the impact of net income less dividends during the first six months of 2023. The increase in the Common Equity Tier 1 ratio for FHN was largely driven by the conversion of the Series G Preferred Stock to common stock.
During 2023, capital ratios are expected to remain above well-capitalized standards plus the required capital conservation buffer.
Common Stock Purchase Programs
Pursuant to Board authority, FHN may repurchase shares of its common stock from time to time and will evaluate the level of capital and take action designed to generate or use capital, as appropriate, for the interests of the shareholders, subject to legal and regulatory restrictions. FHN's Board has authorized two common stock purchase programs, described below. FHN’s Board has not authorized a preferred stock purchase program.
General Purchase Program
On January 27, 2021, FHN announced that its Board of Directors approved a new $500 million common share purchase program that was to expire on January 31, 2023. On October 26, 2021, FHN announced that the 2021 program had been increased by $500 million and extended to October 31, 2023.
The 2021 program is not tied to any compensation plan. Purchases may be made in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions, including under Rule
10b5-1 plans as well as accelerated share repurchase and other structured transactions. The timing and exact amount of common share repurchases are subject to various factors, including FHN's capital position, financial performance, expected capital impacts of strategic initiatives, market conditions, business conditions, and regulatory considerations. FHN does not purchase shares under this program during blackout periods when senior executives are prohibited from purchasing FHN stock on the open market.
As of June 30, 2023, $401 million in purchases had been made life-to-date under the 2021 program at an average price per share of $16.60, or $16.58 excluding commissions. The pendency of the TD Transaction resulted in no purchases under the 2021 program since the Transaction was announced in 2022. With the Transaction terminated, FHN expects to utilize the program in a more normal fashion.

Compensation Plans Purchase Program
A consolidated compensation plan share purchase program was announced on August 6, 2004. This program consolidated into a single share purchase program all of the previously authorized compensation plan share programs as well as the renewal of the authorization to purchase shares for use in connection with compensation plans for which the share purchase authority had expired. The primary objectives of this program are to mitigate dilution resulting from shares issued in connection with FHN's various stock-based compensation plans, and to implement automatic stock purchases related to tax withholding obligations associated with stock-based awards. For many years, the program has been used entirely for the second objective.
The total amount authorized under this consolidated compensation plan share purchase program is 29.6 million shares calculated before adjusting for stock dividends distributed through January 1, 2011. The authorization has been reduced for that portion which relates to compensation plans for which no stock option awards
remain outstanding. The shares may be purchased over the option exercise periods of the various compensation plans on or before December 31, 2023. Purchases may be made in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions and are subject to various factors including FHN's capital position, financial performance, capital impacts of strategic initiatives, market conditions and regulatory considerations. Shares that are withheld from vested or paid awards for withholding tax purposes are withheld automatically at the applicable time, without regard to whether a trading blackout is in place. If FHN were to resume general program use, such purchases would not occur during blackout periods.
As of June 30, 2023, the maximum number of shares that may be purchased under the program was 21.8 million shares. Management currently does not anticipate purchasing a material number of shares under this authority during 2023.

Risk Management

There have been no significant changes to FHN’s risk management practices as described under “Risk Management” included in Item 7 of FHN’s 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Market Risk Management
Value-at-Risk and Stress Testing
VaR is a statistical risk measure used to estimate the potential loss in value from adverse market movements over an assumed fixed holding period within a stated confidence level. FHN employs a model to compute daily VaR measures for its trading securities inventory. FHN computes VaR using historical simulation with a 1-year lookback period at a 99% confidence level with 1-day and 10-day time horizons. Additionally, FHN computes a
Stressed VaR measure. The SVaR computation uses the same model but with model inputs reflecting historical data from a continuous 12-month period that reflects a period of significant financial stress appropriate for our trading securities portfolio.
A summary of FHN’s VaR and SVaR measures for 1-day and 10-day time horizons is presented in the following table:

FHN’s overall VaR measure includes both interest rate risk and credit spread risk. Separate measures of these component risks are as follows:

Credit spread risk 2 — 

The potential risk of loss reflected by FHN’s VaR measures assumes the trading securities inventory is static. Because FHN Financial procures fixed income securities for purposes of distribution to clients, its trading securities inventory turns over regularly. Additionally, FHNF traders actively manage the trading securities inventory continuously throughout each trading day. Accordingly, FHNF’s trading securities inventory is highly dynamic, rather than static. As a result, it would be rare for FHNF to incur a negative revenue day in its fixed income activities at the levels indicated by its VaR measures.
In addition to being used in FHN’s daily market risk management process, the VaR and SVaR measures are also used by FHN in computing its regulatory market risk capital requirements in accordance with the Market Risk Capital rules. For additional information regarding FHN's capital adequacy refer to the Capital section of this MD&A.
FHN also performs stress tests on its trading securities portfolio to calculate the potential loss under various assumed market scenarios. Key assumed stresses used in those tests are:
Down 25 bps - assumes an instantaneous downward move in interest rates of 25 basis points at all points on the interest rate yield curve.
Up 25 bps - assumes an instantaneous upward move in interest rates of 25 basis points at all points on the interest rate yield curve.
Curve flattening - assumes an instantaneous flattening of the interest rate yield curve through an increase in short-term rates and a decrease in long-term rates. The
2-year point on the Treasury yield curve is assumed to increase 15 basis points and the 10-year point on the Treasury yield curve is assumed to decrease 15 basis points. Shifts in other points on the yield curve are predicted based on their correlation to the 2-year and 10-year points.
Curve steepening - assumes an instantaneous steepening of the interest rate yield curve through a decrease in short-term rates and an increase in long-term rates. The 2-year point on the Treasury yield curve is assumed to decrease 15 basis points and the 10-year point on the Treasury yield curve is assumed to increase 15 basis points. Shifts in other points on the yield curve are predicted based on their correlation to the 2-year and 10-year points.
Credit spread widening - assumes an instantaneous increase in credit spreads (the difference between yields on Treasury securities and non-Treasury securities) of 25 basis points.
Model Validation
Trading risk management personnel within FHN Financial have primary responsibility for model risk management with respect to the model used by FHN to compute its VaR measures and perform stress testing on the trading inventory. Among other procedures, these personnel monitor model results and perform periodic backtesting as part of an ongoing process of validating the accuracy of the model. These model risk management activities are subject to annual review by FHN’s Model Validation Group, an independent assurance group charged with oversight responsibility for FHN’s model risk management.
Interest Rate Risk Management
Net Interest Income Simulation Analysis
The information provided in this section, including the discussion regarding the outcomes of simulation analysis and rate shock analysis, is forward-looking. Actual results, if the assumed scenarios were to occur, could differ because of interest rate movements, the ability of management to execute its business plans, and other factors, including those presented in the Forward-Looking Statements section of this Report.
Management uses a simulation model to measure interest rate risk and to formulate strategies to improve balance sheet positioning, earnings, or both, within FHN’s interest rate risk, liquidity, and capital guidelines. Interest rate exposure is measured by forecasting 12 months of NII under various interest rate scenarios and comparing the percentage change in NII for each scenario to a base case scenario where interest rates remain unchanged. Assumptions are made regarding future balance sheet composition, interest rate movements, and loan and

PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS (MD&A)
deposit pricing. In addition, assumptions are made about the magnitude of asset prepayments and earlier than anticipated deposit withdrawals. The results of these scenarios help FHN develop strategies for managing exposure to interest rate risk. While management believes the assumptions used and scenarios selected in its simulations are reasonable, simulation modeling provides only an estimate, not a precise calculation, of exposure to any given change in interest rates.
Based on a static balance sheet as of June 30, 2023, NII exposures over the next 12 months assuming rate shocks of plus/minus 25 basis points, plus/minus 50 basis points, plus/minus 100 basis points, and plus 200 basis points are estimated to have variances as shown in the table below.
Table I.2.22
INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY
Shifts in Interest Rates
(in bps)
% Change in Projected
Net Interest Income
-100(5.5)%
-50(2.7)%
-25(1.4)%
+25+1.2%
+50+2.4%
+100+4.7%
+200+7.3%
A steepening yield curve scenario where long-term rates increase by 50 basis points and short-term rates are static, results in a favorable NII variance of 0.4%. A flattening yield curve scenario where long-term rates decrease by 50 basis points and short-term rates are static, results in an unfavorable NII variance of 0.5%. These hypothetical scenarios are used to create a risk measurement framework, and do not necessarily represent management’s current view of future interest rates or market developments.
Short-term interest rates have reached their highest levels in 15 years, which coupled with market disruption from recent high profile bank failures, has increased competitive pressures on deposit costs.

The yield curve was inverted for much of the last half of 2022, which has continued into 2023. The inverted yield curve indicates market expectations that short-term rates are likely to peak and then decline in future periods. Market participants are divided in their opinions regarding the timing and magnitude of further short-term rate increases or subsequent rate cuts. FHN continues to monitor current economic trends and potential exposures closely. For additional information, see "Yield Curve" within "Market Uncertainties and Prospective Trends" below.
Liquidity Risk Management
Among other things, ALCO is responsible for liquidity management: the funding of assets with liabilities of appropriate duration, while mitigating the risk of unexpected cash needs. ALCO and the Board of Directors have adopted a Liquidity Policy of which the objective is to ensure that FHN meets its cash and collateral obligations promptly, in a cost-effective manner and with the highest degree of reliability. The maintenance of adequate levels of asset and liability liquidity should provide FHN with the ability to meet both expected and unexpected cash and collateral needs. Key liquidity ratios, asset liquidity levels, and the amount available from funding sources are reported to ALCO on a regular basis. FHN’s Liquidity Policy establishes liquidity limits that are deemed appropriate for FHN’s risk profile.
In accordance with the Liquidity Policy, ALCO manages FHN’s exposure to liquidity risk through a dynamic, real time forecasting methodology. Base liquidity forecasts are reviewed by ALCO and are updated as financial conditions dictate. In addition to the baseline liquidity reports, robust stress testing of assumptions and funds availability are periodically reviewed. FHN maintains a contingency funding plan that may be executed should unexpected difficulties arise in accessing funding that affects FHN, the industry, or both. Subject to market conditions and compliance with applicable regulatory requirements from
time to time, funds are available from a number of sources, including the available-for-sale securities portfolio, dealer and commercial customer repurchase agreements, access to the overnight and term Federal Funds markets, incremental borrowing capacity at the FHLB ($10.9 billion was available as of June 30, 2023), brokered deposits, loan sales, syndications, and access to the Federal Reserve Bank.
Generally, a primary source of funding for a bank is core deposits from the bank's client base. The ratio of average loans, excluding loans HFS and restricted real estate loans, to average core deposits was 99% for June 30, 2023 and 82% for December 31, 2022.
FHN may also use unsecured short-term borrowings as a source of liquidity. Federal funds purchased from correspondent bank clients are considered to be substantially more stable than funds purchased in the national broker markets for federal funds due to the long, historical, and reciprocal nature of banking services provided by FHN to these correspondent banks. The remainder of FHN’s wholesale short-term borrowings consists of securities sold under agreements to repurchase transactions accounted for as secured borrowings with business clients or broker dealer counterparties.

PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS (MD&A)
Both FHN and First Horizon Bank have the ability to generate liquidity by issuing senior or subordinated unsecured debt, preferred equity, and common equity, subject to market conditions and compliance with applicable regulatory requirements. As of June 30, 2023, FHN had outstanding $873 million in senior and subordinated unsecured debt and $520 million in non-cumulative perpetual preferred stock. As of June 30, 2023, First Horizon Bank and subsidiaries had outstanding preferred shares of $295 million, which are reflected as noncontrolling interest on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Parent company liquidity is primarily provided by cash flows stemming from dividends and interest payments collected from subsidiaries. These sources of cash represent the primary sources of funds to pay cash dividends to shareholders and principal and interest to debt holders of FHN. Applying the dividend restrictions imposed under applicable federal and state rules as outlined above, the Bank’s total amount available for dividends was $1.1 billion as of July 1, 2023.
In March 2022, FHN agreed to suspend the Dividend Reinvestment Plan in connection with the TD Transaction. During the suspension period, dividend payments of FHN are not automatically reinvested in additional shares of FHN common stock and participants in the Plan are not able to purchase shares of FHN common stock through optional cash investments under the Plan.
First Horizon Bank declared and paid common dividends to the parent company in the amount of $110 million in both first and second quarter 2023 and $435 million in 2022. First Horizon Bank declared and paid preferred dividends in first and second quarter 2023 and in each quarter of 2022. Additionally, First Horizon Bank declared preferred dividends in third quarter 2023, payable in October 2023.
Payment of a dividend to shareholders of FHN is dependent on several factors which are considered by the Board. These factors include FHN’s current and prospective capital, liquidity, and other needs, applicable regulatory restrictions (including capital conservation buffer requirements) and availability of funds to FHN through a dividend from First Horizon Bank. Additionally,
banking regulators generally require insured banks and bank holding companies to pay cash dividends only out of current operating earnings. Consequently, the decision of whether FHN will pay future dividends and the amount of dividends will be affected by current operating results.
FHN paid a cash dividend of $0.15 per common share on July 3, 2023. FHN paid cash dividends of $1,625 per Series E preferred share and $1,175 per Series F preferred share on July 10, 2023 and $331.25 per Series B preferred share and $165 per Series C preferred share on August 1, 2023. In addition, in July 2023, the Board approved cash dividends per share in the following amounts:

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
In the normal course of business, FHN is a party to a number of activities that contain credit, market and operational risk that are not reflected in whole or in part in the consolidated financial statements. Such activities include traditional off-balance sheet credit-related financial instruments. FHN enters into commitments to extend credit to borrowers, including loan commitments, lines of credit, standby letters of credit, and commercial letters of credit. Many of the commitments are expected to expire unused or be only partially used; therefore, the total amount of commitments does not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Based on its available liquidity and available borrowing capacity, FHN anticipates it will continue to have sufficient funds to meet its current commitments.

Repurchase Obligations
Prior to September 2008, legacy First Horizon originated loans through its pre-2009 mortgage business, primarily first lien home loans, with the intention of selling them. FHN's principal remaining exposures for those activities relate to (i) indemnification claims by underwriters, loan purchasers, and other parties which assert that FHN-originated loans caused or contributed to losses which FHN is legally obliged to indemnify, and (ii) indemnification or other claims related to FHN's servicing of pre-2009 mortgage loans.
FHN’s approach for determining the adequacy of the repurchase and foreclosure reserve has evolved, sometimes substantially, based on changes in information available. Repurchase/make-whole rates vary based on purchaser, vintage, and claim type. For those loans repurchased or covered by a make-whole payment, cumulative average loss severities range between 50 and 60 percent of the UPB.

2Q23 FORM 10-Q REPORT

PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS (MD&A)
Repurchase Accrual Approach
In determining potential loss content, claims are analyzed by purchaser, vintage, and claim type. FHN considers various inputs including claim rate estimates, historical average repurchase and loss severity rates, mortgage insurance cancellations, and mortgage insurance curtailment requests. Inputs are applied to claims in the
active pipeline, as well as to historical average inflows to estimate loss content related to potential future inflows. Management also evaluates the nature of claims from purchasers and/or servicers of loans sold to determine if qualitative adjustments are appropriate.
Repurchase and Foreclosure Liability
As discussed in Note 10 - Contingencies and Other Disclosures, FHN’s repurchase and foreclosure liability, primarily related to its pre-2009 mortgage origination, sale, securitization, and servicing businesses, is comprised of accruals to cover estimated loss content in the active pipeline, estimated future inflows, and estimated loss content related to certain known claims not currently included in the active pipeline. The active pipeline consists of mortgage loan repurchase and make-whole demands from loan purchasers or securitization participants, foreclosure/servicing demands from borrowers, and certain related exposures. The liability contemplates repurchase/make-whole and damages obligations and
estimates for probable incurred losses associated with loan populations excluded from the settlements with the GSEs, as well as other whole loans sold, mortgage insurance cancellation rescissions, and loans included in bulk servicing sales effected prior to the settlements with the GSEs. FHN compares the estimated probable incurred losses determined under the applicable loss estimation approaches for the respective periods with current reserve levels. Changes in the estimated required liability levels are recorded as necessary through the repurchase and foreclosure provision. The repurchase and foreclosure liability was $16 million as of both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Market Uncertainties and Prospective Trends
FHN’s future results could be affected both positively and negatively by several known trends. Key among those are changes in the U.S. and global economy and outlook, government actions affecting interest rates, and government actions and proposals which could have positive or negative impacts on the economy at large or on certain businesses, industries, or sectors.
Additional risks relate to political uncertainty, changes in federal policies (including those publicly discussed, formally proposed, or recently implemented) and the potential impacts of those changes on our businesses and clients, and whether FHN’s strategic initiatives will succeed.
Inflation, Recession, and Federal Reserve Policy
Economic Overview
The year 2022 and first half of 2023 were marked by: strong inflation which began in 2021, and which has been abating slowly in 2023; the Federal Reserve implementing a "tightening" policy in 2022 to contain inflation by rapidly increasing short-term interest rates and ending asset purchases; low unemployment rates despite moderate economic growth; and a profoundly inverted yield curve. Key aspects were:
Although the U.S. economy flirted with recession in 2022, it did not officially enter one. In 2023 recession risk remains high but growth has remained positive.
Although recessionary expectations were and remain high, consumption and employment have been robust.
The rise in short-term interest rates by the Federal Reserve was both rapid and substantial, taking the overnight Fed Funds rate from 0.20% in March 2022 to 4.65% a year later. Hikes since first quarter 2023 have been much more modest and gradual.
In response to 2022's extremely rapid and vigorous tightening of monetary policy, the inflation rate in the U.S. has fallen but remains high in relation to the decade preceding the COVID-19 pandemic, and in relation to the Federal Reserve's stated long-term goal of 2%.
Monetary tightening often creates yield curve inversion for a time. In the current cycle, traditional inversion (when ten-year treasury rates are below two-year rates) has been both very deep and unusually sustained, with the current inversion having begun in the summer of 2022.
Key events and circumstances are noted in the following discussions.
Federal Reserve and Rates
The Federal Reserve raised short-term rates several times in 2022, and four times in 2023. All but one of the raises in 2022 were 75 and 50 basis points each—aggressive by historical standards—while the 2023 raises were the
First Horizon image.jpg
105
2Q23 FORM 10-Q REPORT

PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS (MD&A)
more-typical 25 basis points each. The Federal Reserve has expressed its intent to bring inflation under control even at the risk of creating or deepening an economic recession. Recently the Federal Reserve has indicated that future decisions to raise rates further, or to hold them steady, cannot be forecast. FHN expects future decisions will be heavily impacted by economic data, especially inflation-rate and -trend data, available at each decision point.
FHN cannot predict exactly when or how much short-term rates will be further raised, when raises will halt entirely (a so-called "pause"), how market-driven long-term rates will behave, nor how those actions may affect financial markets, during the rest of 2023.
Yield Curve
During the past six quarters, the yield curve flattened and inverted many times. Unusual yield curve effects, including inversion, are common when monetary policy changes, and those effects are likely to continue. A traditional measure of inversion occurs when the two-year U.S. Treasury rate is higher than the ten-year rate. Traditional inversion has been sustained for the last half of 2022 and all of 2023 to date, an unusually long period. The degree of inversion has varied, but generally has been much deeper than is typically the case. Sustained traditional yield curve inversion is viewed, with statistical support, as a harbinger of economic recession.
The most recent period with deeper and longer-lasting inversion was over 40 years ago. That 4-5 year period was marked by stagflation (low economic growth coupled with high inflation), followed by extremely robust interest rate hikes and a strong recession.
Yield curve flattening and inversion generally reduces the profit FHN can make from lending by compressing FHN's net interest margin, and also generally reduces FHN's revenues from bond trading. Refer to Interest Rate & Yield Curve Risks, located in Item 1A. Risk Factors of FHN's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, for a discussion of the risks to FHN associated with flattening and inversion. In 2022 FHN's net interest margin expanded somewhat as loan rates rose faster than funding costs, but that unusual result ended in 2023.
Recession
The U.S. economy contracted (experienced negative growth) during the first two quarters of 2022, in both cases modestly. Although two consecutive quarters of contraction often coincides with recession, in 2022 it did not. The economy expanded in each of the most recent four quarters. The rate of expansion fell during the first three of those quarters, but the most recent quarter reversed that trend.
Recession expectations in the U.S. were high in 2022 and first quarter 2023. They moderated in second quarter, despite consecutive quarters of falling growth rates. With
the announcement in late July that second quarter 2023 economic growth unexpectedly was stronger than first quarter, recession expectations may continue to moderate in third quarter. Stronger economic performance in second quarter may make further rate hikes more likely, however, which tend to heighten recession expectations.
Banking Crisis
In March 2023, two large regional U.S. banks failed after sudden large deposit outflows, and a major Swiss bank was acquired by another bank at the behest of regulators.
The two U.S. failures appear to have been caused in significant part by risky funds management practices exacerbated by a highly unusual deposit mix and 2022's sharp rise in rates. In the aftermath of these two failures, bank investors and clients across the U.S. became more focused on deposit mix, funding risk management, and other safety-soundness concerns. The market values of virtually all U.S. bank stocks fell quickly and strongly in March, with a few falling about 90%.
The media published stories about actual and possible bank runs by depositors. Most U.S. banks saw net outflows of deposits in 2022 and early 2023 as the impacts of COVID-19 crisis programs faded and rates available from non-bank-account investments improved. According to Federal Reserve data, starting in mid-March, the two failures triggered an abrupt net deposit outflow from all but the largest U.S. banks. Specifically, during the week of March 15, the 25 largest U.S. banks as a group saw net deposit inflows exceeding $100 billion, while all other (smaller) U.S. banks as a group saw net outflows of nearly $200 billion. The next week large and small U.S. banks experienced net outflows of roughly $100 and $50 billion, respectively. The March crisis shock was short-lived, however. During the final week of March both large and small U.S. banks collectively experienced net inflows of deposits, roughly mirroring the first week of March, before the crisis emerged. Since March, deposits at smaller banks have continued to rise slowly while the largest banks have reverted to pre-March trends, with slow net outflows.
The two U.S. bank failures resulted in Congressional calls for higher regulation of mid-sized regional banks, especially for those with $100 billion or more of assets. FHN cannot predict what, if any, legislative or regulatory outcomes will result from the crisis.
In early May a third large regional U.S. bank failed after experiencing very large deposit outflows in March. Although this failure was widely anticipated, volatility in regional bank stocks reappeared in May. By June bank-stock volatility had abated again, but with regional bank prices well below pre-crisis levels.
The three failed U.S. banks had a few characteristics that FHN believes were significant negative factors contributing to loss of confidence by depositors, in

addition to having an unusual customer mix: well-above-median levels of deposits not covered by FDIC insurance; significant portions of the 2020-21 pandemic deposit inflows invested in longer-term fixed-rate debt securities; and very high (in relation to regulatory capital) market value losses on those investments when rates rose in 2022 and early 2023. These factors made them unusually susceptible to a cascade of negative effects when deposit levels diminished, for the entire industry, starting in 2022 as customers sought better returns in the rising rate environment.
War in Europe
The Russian military invaded Ukraine in February 2022. Over a year later, that conflict continues. Much of Europe and the rest of the world, including the U.S., imposed economic sanctions on Russia. The war and sanctions resulted in global oil and gas prices rising precipitously in early 2022. Oil prices have been volatile since then but, year to date in 2023, oil prices have oscillated in the roughly same price range as during the six-month period before the war.
Market Volatility & Valuations
As a result of the prospects for recession, coupled with the uncertainties associated with the war in eastern Europe, financial markets world-wide were volatile during much of 2022. Volatility overall moderated somewhat in late 2022 and continuing into 2023, but volatile episodes have continued.
Financial asset values broadly fell last year, especially during the second and third quarters. By mid-year 2023, broad stock indices largely had recovered from 2022's low points.
Impacts on FHN
In 2022, FHN benefited significantly from rising rates as the rise in lending rates outpaced the rise in deposit and other funding rates. In the first quarter of 2023, that outpacing ended, with FHN's net interest margin compressing slightly from fourth quarter 2022. That compression worsened in second quarter as FHN's funding rates, especially for deposits, rose more than lending rates.
In 2022 and early 2023, FHN experienced a normalization of deposit levels since first quarter 2020 as it allowed higher cost surge deposits resulting from economic stimulus programs to move off its balance sheet. Net deposit outflows ranged from roughly $2.0 to $4.0 billion in each of the last three quarters of 2022, and fell again by roughly $2.5 billion in first quarter 2023. That outflow trend ended in second quarter as FHN had net deposit inflows of $4.0 billion from March 31, 2023 to June 30, 2023. To mitigate net deposit outflows, FHN increased deposit rates appreciably over the past several quarters, particularly in 2023. In contrast, during this period FHN's total loans grew modestly each quarter. These impacts
resulted from a deliberate plan to allow deposits to return to more normal levels in relation to loans. FHN started raising deposit rates to more competitive levels during first quarter 2023, launched a major deposit-growth campaign in second quarter, and expects to continue to meet competitive pressures going forward. All of these actions have increased FHN's funding costs from deposits.
Although FHN cannot predict future actions of its depositors, FHN believes it has avoided key characteristics of the three failed U.S. banks. Specifically: FHN has a traditional customer mix for a bank its size; 61% of FHN's deposits at June 30, 2023 were FDIC insured, and another 7% were collateralized; and, because FHN kept a substantial portion of the pandemic deposit inflows in overnight and other "cash" investments, the market value losses embedded in FHN's investments, if fully realized, would not diminish FHN's regulatory capital levels appreciably in relation to regulatory requirements.
As mentioned above, in 2023 the Federal Reserve has slowed the rate of increase of interest rates, and FHN currently expects rate increases to pause at some point this year or early next year, depending primarily on inflation rate data. Increased stability in interest rates eventually may bring increased stability in funding, including deposits.
In addition, some of FHN's businesses have been negatively impacted by rising rates. Rate increases have pushed home mortgage rates in the U.S. much higher than in early 2022. FHN's direct mortgage lending and lending to mortgage companies saw business decline significantly in 2022. Moreover, FHN's revenues from bond trading and related activities fell significantly in 2022 due to rising rates coupled with elevated market volatility. These impacts have continued in 2023.
A recession, if one occurs, likely would have a significant negative impact on FHN's businesses overall. Demand for loans likely would fall, loan losses and provision expense likely would rise, many commercial activities that generate fee income likely would decline, and competition for clients likely would sharpen. FHN already has experienced some of these impacts. The deeper or longer a recession lasts, the more significant these negative impacts are likely to be for FHN. However, as mentioned above, in the past few months, recessionary expectations have abated somewhat. In late July it was unexpectedly reported that the U.S. economy grew more strongly in second quarter than in first quarter, which may further blunt recessionary expectations.

PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS (MD&A)
LIBOR & Reference Rate Reform
Background
The London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) was for many years the most widely used reference rate in the world. About a decade ago, evidence emerged that some members of the panel that set LIBOR may have manipulated the published LIBOR rates rather than using strictly good-faith judgments. In 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) – the United Kingdom’s regulator of LIBOR – set in motion a sequence of events that would ultimately lead to the cessation of LIBOR.
The cessation of LIBOR came in successive stages:
In 2020, the Federal Reserve, the OCC, and the FDIC jointly encouraged U.S. banks to transition away from LIBOR for new contracts as soon as practicable and, in any event, by December 31, 2021. As such, that date became the deadline by which financial institutions and other market participants were required to cease origination of new LIBOR contracts.
Two of LIBOR’s lesser-used U.S. dollar tenors (namely, 1-week and 2-month USD LIBOR) ceased to be published after December 31, 2021.
The remaining U.S. dollar tenors of LIBOR (e.g., overnight, 1-month, 3-month, 6-month and 12-month tenors) ceased to be published after June 30, 2023.
In March 2022, Congress passed the Adjustable Interest Rate (LIBOR) Act. The legislation addresses loans that remained on LIBOR as of the June 30, 2023 cessation date, and that either have no fallback provisions or that contain fallback provisions that do not identify a specific benchmark replacement. Per the legislation, at the final cessation of USD LIBOR, banks may cause such loans to fall back to a SOFR-based benchmark rate, with such rate to be selected by the Federal Reserve Board. The LIBOR Act also provides safe harbor from liability for banks that select the Board-selected replacement benchmark rate at the cessation of LIBOR.
In December 2022, the Federal Reserve Board issued Regulation ZZ, its final rule to implement the Adjustable Interest Rate (LIBOR) Act.

FHN’s Cessation of the Use of LIBOR for New Contracts

In the fourth quarter of 2021, FHN ceased using LIBOR for new contracts. All required systems, processes, and reporting were updated to accommodate the transition, and FHN’s associates were trained on the use of the new benchmark rates that had been introduced as replacements for LIBOR.
Within FHN’s consumer portfolio, LIBOR had been referenced principally in adjustable-rate mortgages
(ARMs). Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2021, new ARMs referenced 30-day average SOFR, rather than LIBOR.
Within FHN’s commercial portfolio, LIBOR had been widely used in floating-rate loans. Additionally, many interest rate swaps referenced LIBOR. Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2021, FHN made available multiple benchmark rate options for floating-rate commercial loans. Most commercial clients who had previously used LIBOR-indexed floating-rate loans have since selected CME Term SOFR as their benchmark rate for new and renewing commercial loans. CME Term SOFR is also now the most prevalent rate used in FHN’s interest rate derivatives contracts with its clients.
Published by CME Group, Term SOFR is a forward-looking rate, with 1-month, 3-month, 6-month and 12-month tenors, and is based on SOFR futures contracts. The Alternative Reference Rates Committee (ARRC) recommended conventions for Term SOFR rates, recommended CME Group as the administrator for Term SOFR, and subsequently recommended CME Group's Term SOFR rates. Furthermore, Regulation ZZ identifies CME Term SOFR (plus a spread adjustment, as defined in the LIBOR Act) as the Board-selected replacement rate for the purposes of loans that are repriced in accordance with the LIBOR Act upon the June 2023 final cessation of LIBOR.
FHN’s Transition of Existing Contracts Away from LIBOR

As noted above, two of LIBOR’s lesser-used U.S. dollar tenors (namely, 1-week and 2-month USD LIBOR) ceased to be published after December 31, 2021. Prior to that date, FHN renegotiated terms with clients whose loans were based on 1-week or 2-month USD LIBOR. Only a small portion of FHN's clients had such loans.
For the remainder of FHN’s LIBOR-indexed commercial loans (i.e., those with overnight, 1-month, 3-month, 6-month and 12-month tenors), and for FHN’s LIBOR-indexed interest rate swaps, FHN began amending existing LIBOR-indexed contracts starting in the fourth quarter of 2021. The objective has been to amend all contracts that reference LIBOR, by the time of such contracts’ first interest-rate reset date that references a determination date after June 30, 2023. As such, the balance of commercial loans that reference LIBOR fell from $25 billion as of December 31, 2021, to $2 billion as of June 30, 2023. Additionally, the notional amount of interest rate swaps that reference LIBOR fell from $10 billion as of December 31, 2021, to $2 billion as of June 30, 2023.
FHN will amend approximately $600 million in LIBOR-indexed commercial loans, in accordance with the terms of the March 2022 LIBOR Act and Regulation ZZ, upon the first interest rate reset date after June 30, 2023, with the benchmark rate changing to CME Term SOFR. Most of these loans will amend in the third quarter of 2023.
First Horizon image.jpg
108
2Q23 FORM 10-Q REPORT

PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS (MD&A)
An additional $1.2 billion in LIBOR-indexed commercial loans are syndicated loans on which FHN is not the agent bank. Per conversations with many of the agent banks, their intent is to similarly amend the pricing on these loans, in accordance with the terms of the LIBOR Act and Regulation ZZ, upon the first interest rate reset date after June 30, 2023.
Similarly, the remaining $1 billion in LIBOR-indexed interest rate swaps will fall back to a SOFR-based rate, in accordance with the terms of the LIBOR Act and Regulation ZZ, prior to the end of 2023.
In accordance with the terms of the LIBOR Act and Regulation ZZ, the replacement benchmark rate for consumer loans will be a SOFR-based rate published by Refinitiv Limited, equal to CME Term SOFR plus a transition tenor spread adjustment. FHN’s remaining LIBOR-indexed consumer loans are residential ARMs. The borrowers have been notified that their ARMs will reference the SOFR-based Refinitiv rate upon the first interest rate reset that references a date after June 30, 2023. Because many of these existing LIBOR-indexed ARMs have a 6-month tenor, and because many of these loans have a 45-day lookback period, the last of these loans to be amended to the SOFR-based Refinitiv rate will be amended in the first quarter of 2024.

In addition to the above-referenced loan and swap exposure, FHN has less than $1 billion in corporate exposures (including preferred stock, investment securities and balance sheet hedges) that will fall back to a SOFR-based rate in the coming months.
Financial Accounting Aspects
In 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting,” which provides several optional expedients and exceptions to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform. The scope of ASU 2020-04 was expanded in 2021 with ASU 2021-01, "Scope". Refer to the Accounting Changes With Extended Transition Periods section of Note 1 - Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies for additional information.
In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06, "Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848" which extends the transition window for ASU 2020-04 from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024, consistent with key USD LIBOR tenors continuing to be published through June 30, 2023.
U.S. Tax Accommodation
On December 30, 2021, the IRS released final guidance that is intended to facilitate the transition of existing contracts from LIBOR to new reference rates without triggering modification accounting or taxable exchange treatment for those contracts. This guidance specifies what must be met in order to qualify for the beneficial transition approach and FHN is considering this guidance in its transition plans.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
FHN has made no significant changes in its critical accounting policies and estimates from those disclosed in its 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
