This report, including materials 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, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, with respect 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. The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “should,” “is likely,” “will,” “going forward,” and other expressions that indicate future events and trends identify forward-looking statements.
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 our control, and many of which, with respect to future business decisions and actions (including acquisitions and divestitures), are subject to change and could cause our actual future results and outcomes to differ materially from those contemplated 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;
•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;

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 expectations could change, possibly materially, because of one or more factors, including those factors listed above or presented elsewhere in this report, those factors listed in material incorporated by reference into this report, and other factors not listed. In evaluating forward-looking statements and assessing our prospects, readers of this report should carefully consider the factors mentioned above along with the additional risk factors discussed in Item 2 of Part I and 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.

3Q24 FORM 10-Q REPORT
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND 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.2.26 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.

See accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements.
NOTE 1—BASIS OF PRESENTATION & ACCOUNTING POLICIES
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, 2023. 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.
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 were 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 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
NOTE 1—BASIS OF PRESENTATION & ACCOUNTING POLICIES
contracts affected by the change in discounting convention regardless of whether they are centrally cleared (i.e., bilateral 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 bilateral 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 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 was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Adoption of ASU 2023-02 is applied on either a modified retrospective (cumulative catch up) or a retrospective (restatement of prior years) basis. FHN has assessed the applicability of ASU 2023-02 to its tax credit program equity investments, determined that its New Markets Tax Credit and Historic Tax Credit programs qualified, and made the proportional method election for them. The use of the proportional amortization method continued for FHN's Low-Income Housing Tax Credits
program. Upon adoption of ASU 2023-02, FHN recognized a cumulative effect adjustment that increased retained earnings by $8 million, net of tax, on January 1, 2024.
The adoption of ASU 2023-02 resulted in a revision to FHN’s accounting policy for equity investments in tax credit programs. FHN’s election to utilize the deferral method for investments that generate Investment Tax Credits is now made subsequent to the determination of whether a tax credit program will apply the proportional amortization method. This includes both solar and non-qualifying historic tax credit investments. Under the deferral approach the investment tax credits are recorded as an offset to the related investment on the balance sheet. Credit amounts are recognized in earnings over the life of the investment within the same income or expense accounts as used for the investment.
Accounting Changes Issued But Not Currently Effective
ASU 2023-07
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, "Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures" that requires public entities to provide disclosures of significant segment expenses, including interest expense, and other segment items on an annual and interim basis and to provide in interim periods all disclosures about a reportable segment's profit or loss and assets that are currently required annually. The ASU requires a public entity to disclose, for each reportable segment, the significant expense categories and amounts that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision-maker (CODM) and included in each reported measure of a segment's profit or loss. ASU 2023-07 also requires disclosure of the title and position of the CODM and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources.
ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The guidance is applied retrospectively to all periods presented in the financial statements, unless it is impracticable. FHN will adopt ASU 2023-07 as of December 31, 2024 and is currently assessing the effect on its reportable segment disclosures.
ASU 2023-09
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, "Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures" to enhance transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. The provisions of this ASU require disaggregated information about a reporting entity's effective tax rate reconciliation in both percentages and reporting currency amounts. Certain categories of reconciling items are required by the ASU with additional categories required if a specified quantitative threshold is met. Reporting entities are also required to provide a
NOTE 1—BASIS OF PRESENTATION & ACCOUNTING POLICIES
qualitative discussion of the primary state and local jurisdictions for income taxes and the type of reconciling categories. ASU 2023-09 also requires disaggregation of income taxes paid by jurisdiction.
For public business entities, ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 31, 2024. The guidance will be applied on a prospective basis with the option to apply the standard retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. FHN is currently assessing the impact of adopting ASU 2023-09 on its income tax disclosures.
SEC Final Rule
In March 2024, the SEC adopted final rules, “The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors” (the “Climate Disclosures Rules”) to require registrants to disclose certain climate-related information in registration statements and annual reports. Information required for inclusion within the footnotes to the financial statements for severe weather events and other natural conditions includes 1) income statement effects before insurance recoveries above 1% of pre-tax income/loss, 2) balance sheet effects above 1% of shareholders’ equity, and 3) certain carbon offsets and renewable energy credits. Qualitative discussion is also required for material impacts on financial estimates and assumptions that are due to severe weather events and other natural conditions or disclosed climate-related targets or transition plans.
In April 2024 the SEC issued a stay of the Climate Disclosures Rules pending the completion of judicial review of various legal challenges. Therefore, the actual timing of the implementation of the Climate Disclosure Rules, if sustained through the judicial process, is uncertain. FHN is assessing the potential effects of the Climate Disclosure Rules on its financial statements.

There were no sales of AFS securities for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.
The following tables provide information on investments within the available-for-sale portfolio that had unrealized losses as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023:
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 $28 million and $32 million as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, 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 nine month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 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 September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. FHN has assessed the risk of credit loss and has determined that no allowance for credit losses for HTM securities was necessary as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. 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 $91 million and $89 million at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The year-to-date 2024 and 2023 gross amounts of upward and downward valuation adjustments were not significant.
Unrealized gains of $4 millionand$11 million were recognized in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, for equity investments with readily determinable fair values. Unrealized gains of less than $1 million and $7 million were recognized in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, for equity investments with readily determinable fair values.
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 September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, excluding accrued interest of $281 million and $287 million, respectively, which is included in other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

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 September 30, 2024, FHN had loans to mortgage companies of $3.2 billion and loans to finance and insurance companies of $3.7 billion. As a result, 21% 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 loans and leases with the added characteristics that the
probability of loss is high, and collection of the full amount is improbable.

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 September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. 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.
The following tables reflect the amortized cost basis by year of origination and refreshed FICO scores for credit card and other loans as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
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 September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023:
(a) $175 million and $178 million of C&I loans are nonaccrual loans that have been specifically reviewed for impairment with no related allowance in 2024 and 2023, respectively.
(b) $253 million and $129 million of CRE loans are nonaccrual loans that have been specifically reviewed for impairment with no related allowance in 2024 and 2023, respectively.
(c) $3 million and $4 million of HELOC loans are nonaccrual loans that have been specifically reviewed for impairment with no related allowance in 2024 and 2023, respectively.
(d) $9 million and $10 million of real estate installment loans are nonaccrual loans that have been specifically reviewed for impairment with no related allowance in 2024 and 2023, 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 September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, FHN had commercial loans with amortized cost of approximately $376 million and $250 million, respectively, that were based on the value of underlying collateral. Collateral-dependent C&I and CRE loans totaled $134 million and $242 million, respectively, at September 30, 2024. The collateral for these loans generally consists of business assets including land, buildings, equipment, and financial assets. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, FHN recognized charge-offs of $27 million and $67 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 $6 million and $28 million, respectively, as of September 30, 2024 and $6 million and $27 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2023. Charge-offs relating to collateral-dependent consumer loans were $1 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023.
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
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 September 30, 2024:

Loan modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty that had a payment default during the period and were modified in the 12 months before default totaled less than $1 million and $21 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively. FHN closely monitors the performance of the loans that are modified to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty to understand the effectiveness of its modification efforts.
The following table depicts the performance of loans that have been modified in the last 12 months:
PERFORMANCE OF LOANS THAT HAVE BEEN MODIFIED IN THE LAST 12 MONTHS
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. Provisions for credit losses related to loans and leases and 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 reasonable and supportable forecast period of at most four years. 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 nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 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).
The increase in the ACL balance as of September 30, 2024, as compared to December 31, 2023, largely reflects downgrades and an evolving macroeconomic outlook. In developing credit loss estimates for its loan and lease portfolios, FHN utilized two Moody’s forecast scenarios for its macroeconomic inputs. As of September 30, 2024, among other things, FHN's scenario selection process factored in the outlook for production, inflation, interest rates, employment, real estate prices and international conflict. FHN selected one scenario as its base case, which was the Moody's baseline scenario. The heaviest weight was placed on this scenario. A smaller weight was placed on the FHN-selected downside scenario which was the Moody's S3 alternative scenario. FHN's scenario selection process was consistent with the prior quarter.
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 or identified model limitations, and for instances where limited data for acquired loans is considered to affect modeled results.
The following table provides a rollforward of the ALLL and the reserve for unfunded lending commitments by portfolio type for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023:

(a) Includes $72 million from a single credit from a company in bankruptcy.
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 income on the Consolidated Statements of Income.
At September 30, 2024, FHN had approximately $31 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 2024 and 2023, 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 related to residential mortgage loans held for sale as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and the year ended December 31, 2023.

(a)FHN reorganized its internal management structure and reallocated goodwill in its reportable segments effective January 1, 2024. Prior periods have been revised to reflect this reallocation.
(b)Reduction in goodwill is related to the divestiture of FHN Financial Main Street Advisors assets in December 2023.
FHN performed the required annual goodwill impairment test as of October 1, 2023. The annual qualitative 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. FHN is currently in the process of performing its annual impairment analysis as of October 1, 2024.
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.

(a) Denotes earliest optional redemption date. Earlier redemption is possible, at FHN's election, if certain regulatory capital events occur.
(b) As a result of LIBOR transition, the fixed dividend rate will reset on August 1, 2025 to three-month CME Term SOFR plus 4.52361% (0.26161% plus 4.262%).
(c) As a result of LIBOR transition, the fixed dividend rate will reset on May 1, 2026 to three-month CME Term SOFR plus 5.18161% (0.26161% plus 4.920%).
(d) On May 1, 2024, FHN redeemed all outstanding shares of its Series D Preferred Stock. The fixed dividend rate was set to convert to three-month CME Term SOFR plus 4.12061% (0.26161% plus 3.859%) on May 1, 2024.
FHN redeemed all outstanding shares of Series D Preferred Stock effective May 1, 2024. The difference between the $100 million outstanding liquidation preference amount and the $94 million carrying value of the Series D Preferred Stock along with the related share repurchase tax resulted in $7 million in deemed dividends that were included in net income available to common shareholders and EPS for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.
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 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 September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, $295 million of Class A Preferred Stock was recognized as noncontrolling interest on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
FT Real Estate Securities Company, Inc. (FTRESC), an indirect subsidiary of FHN, has issued 50 shares of 9.50% Cumulative Preferred Stock, Class B (Class B Preferred Shares), with a liquidation preference of $1 million per share; of those shares, 47 were issued to nonaffiliates. FTRESC is a real estate investment trust established for the purpose of acquiring, holding, and managing real estate mortgage assets. Dividends on the Class B Preferred
Shares are cumulative and are payable semi-annually. At September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Class B Preferred Shares qualified as Tier 2 regulatory capital. For all periods presented, these securities are presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as term borrowings.
The Class B Preferred Shares are mandatorily redeemable on March 31, 2031, and redeemable at the discretion of FTRESC in the event that the Class B Preferred Shares cannot be accounted for as Tier 2 regulatory capital or there is more than an insubstantial risk that dividends paid with respect to the Class B Preferred Shares will not be fully deductible for tax purposes.

(a) On February 28, 2022, FHN issued $494 million of Series G Convertible Preferred Stock, which was converted into common stock on June 26, 2023, following the termination of the TD Merger Agreement. Conversion occurred at the rate of 4,000 common shares per Series G preferred share resulting in 19,742,776 additional common shares outstanding. 2023 includes the impact of the Series G preferred shares based on the final conversion rate.
The following table presents average outstanding options and other equity awards that were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because they were either anti-dilutive (the exercise price was higher

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 September 30, 2024, the aggregate amount of liabilities established for all such loss contingency matters was $1 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 September 30, 2024, 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
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 $15 million and $16 million as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. 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.
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.
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 2023. Management does not currently anticipate that FHN will make a contribution to the qualified pension plan in 2024.
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 $6 million for 2023. FHN anticipates making benefit payments under the non-qualified plans of $5 million in 2024.
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 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The components of net periodic benefit cost for the three and nine months ended September 30 were as follows:
FHN's operating segments are composed of the following:
•Regional Banking segment offers financial products and services, including traditional lending and deposit taking, to commercial and consumer 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, and mortgage. 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. During the first quarter of 2024, FHN made organizational changes in its internal management structure, and accordingly, its segment reporting structure. Prior period segment information has been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. 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.
The following tables present financial information for each reportable business segment for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023:

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 September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

Nonconsolidated Variable Interest Entities
Tax Credit Investments
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. 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 historic tax credits. The purpose of these investments is 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. FHN is therefore not the primary beneficiary of any of these entities.
Accordingly, FHN does not consolidate these VIEs and accounts for these investments in other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
FHN accounts for qualifying LIHTC investments under the proportional amortization method (PAM). Effective for periods after 2023, all LIHTC investments qualify for the PAM. Commencing in 2024, FHN has determined that its equity investments in NMTC and historic tax credit entities qualify for the PAM and has made the election to apply the PAM for these programs. 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. Prior to 2024, LIHTC investments that did not qualify for the PAM were accounted for using the equity method. Expenses associated with non-qualifying LIHTC investments were not material for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.
The following table summarizes the impact to income tax expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 for investments accounted for under the PAM. The impact of these investments is Included in other operating activities, net in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

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 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 September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

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 September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, FHN had $323 million and $406 million of cash receivables and $28 million and $33 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 $38 million and $19 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, and $113 million and $68 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Trading revenues are inclusive of both derivative and non-derivative financial instruments and are included in fixed income on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

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 table summarizes FHN’s derivatives associated with interest rate risk management activities as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

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. This hedge matured in first quarter 2024. 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 made certain elections under ASU 2020-04 to facilitate qualification for hedge accounting during the time that hedged items transitioned 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.
The following tables summarize FHN’s derivative activities associated with cash flow hedges as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

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 September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the derivative liabilities associated with the sales of Visa Class B shares were $32 million and $23 million, respectively. FHN recognized $15 million in derivative valuation adjustments related to prior sales of Visa Class B shares for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and the year ended December 31, 2023. 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 September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, these loans were valued at $11 million and $17 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 September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the notional values of FHN’s risk participations were $326 million and $351 million of derivative assets and $918 million and $874 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 September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, 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 September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, FHN had recognized an insignificant amount of assets and liabilities associated with these contracts.

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 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 $19 million of assets and $114 million of liabilities on September 30, 2024, and $12 million of assets and $188 million of liabilities on December 31, 2023. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, FHN had received collateral of $95 million and $95 million and posted collateral of $48 million and $83 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 $19 million of assets and $114 million of liabilities on September 30, 2024, and $12 million of assets and $188 million of liabilities on December 31, 2023. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, FHN had received collateral of $95 million and $95 million and posted collateral of $48 million and $83 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.
The following table provides details of derivative assets and collateral received as presented on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, $32 million and $24 million, respectively, of derivative liabilities (primarily Visa-related derivatives) have been excluded from these tables because they are generally not subject to master netting or 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.
The following table provides details of securities purchased under agreements to resell and collateral pledged by counterparties as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

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 the use of option pricing models, discounted cash flow models, and similar techniques.
The following table presents the balances of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

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 September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, the following tables provide the level of valuation assumptions used to determine each adjustment and the related carrying value.

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.
Fixed asset and leased asset impairments were immaterial for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.

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 delinquency or default and adjusts the fair value accordingly.
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
Prior to 2024, the estimated fair value of tax credit investments accounted for under the equity method was
generally determined in relation to the yield (i.e., future tax credits to be received) an acquirer of these investments expected in relation to the yields experienced on current new issue and/or secondary market transactions. Thus, as tax credits were recognized, the future yield to a market participant was reduced, resulting in consistent impairment of the individual investments. Individual investments were reviewed for impairment quarterly, which included the consideration of additional marketability discounts related to specific investments which typically included 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. 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.
The following table reflects the differences between the fair value carrying amount of residential real estate loans held for sale measured at fair value in accordance with management’s election and the aggregate unpaid principal amount FHN is contractually entitled to receive at maturity.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the amount for residential real estate loans held for sale included an insignificant amount of gains in pre-tax 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
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 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.
The fair value of residential real estate loans held for sale is determined using a discounted cash flow model that 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.
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. For periods prior to 2024, tax credit investments accounted for under the equity method were written down to estimated fair value quarterly based on the estimated
value of the associated tax credits which incorporated estimates of required yield for hypothetical investors. Subsequent to 2023, the fair value of 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 September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, 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 — such as premises and equipment, goodwill, other intangible assets such as the value of long-term relationships with deposit and trust clients, deferred
taxes, and certain other assets and other liabilities — have not been included in the following table. Additionally, the fair value measurements presented in the following table 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.
The following table summarizes the book value and estimated fair value of financial instruments recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

3Q24 FORM 10-Q REPORT
PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS (MD&A)
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 commercial, private banking, consumer, small business, wealth and trust management, retail brokerage, capital markets, fixed income, and mortgage banking services.
At September 30, 2024, FHN had over 450 business locations in 24 states, including over 400 banking centers
in 12 states, and employed approximately 7,200 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 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Executive Overview
Financial Performance Summary
Third Quarter 2024 Highlights
FHN reported third quarter 2024 net income available to common shareholders of $213 million, or $0.40 per diluted share, compared to $184 million, or $0.34per diluted share, in second quarter 2024 and $129 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, in third quarter 2023.
Net interest income of $627 million decreased $2 million compared to second quarter 2024 from increased deposit costs and higher levels of brokered deposits, partially offset by improvement in loan repricing. Net interest income increased $22 million compared to third quarter 2023, driven by the impact of higher yields on earning assets partially offset by higher funding costs.
Provision for credit losses was $35 million for third quarter 2024 compared to $55 million for second quarter 2024 and $110 million for third quarter 2023. Net charge-offs were $24 million, or 15 basis points, compared to $34 million, or 22 basis points, in second quarter 2024 and $95 million, or 61 basis points, in third quarter 2023. Third quarter 2023 included a single $72 million charge-off for a company in bankruptcy.
Noninterest income of $200 million increased $14 million compared to second quarter 2024, largely driven by an increase in fixed income production. Noninterest income for third quarter 2024 increased $27 million, or 16%, compared to third quarter 2023, also largely driven by higher fixed income production.
Noninterest expense of $511 million increased $11 million from second quarter 2024, largely resulting from $15 million in Visa derivative valuation expense. Compared with third quarter 2023, noninterest expense increased $37 million, or 8%, largely reflecting an increase in personnel expense, expenses related to strategic investments and Visa derivative valuation expense.
Year-to-Date and Period End Highlights
For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, net income available to common shareholders was
$581 million, or $1.06 per diluted share, compared to $689 million, or $1.23 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.
Net interest income decreased $42 million, largely driven by higher funding costs partially offset by higher earning asset yields and loan growth.
Provision for credit losses of $140 milliondecreased $70 million for the year-to-date period of 2024 compared to the same period of 2023, largely reflecting the impact of a single large credit loss in 2023.
Noninterest income for the year-to-date period decreased $164 million, or 22%, primarily from the gain on merger termination in 2023, partially offset by higher fixed income, mortgage banking income and brokerage, management fees and commissions in 2024.
Noninterest expense for the year-to-date period increased $19 million, or 1%, largely attributable to higher personnel expense, deposit insurance expense and legal and professional fees partially offset by lower contributions expense.
Period-end loans and leases of $62.4 billion increased $1.2 billion, or 2%, from December 31, 2023. Commercial loan growth of $948 million was driven by growth in loans to mortgage companies and CRE loans partially offset by a decline in other C&I loans. Consumer loan growth of $205 millionwas largely driven by growth in consumer real estate loans.
Period-end deposits of $66.6 billion increased $795 million, or 1%, compared to December 31, 2023. Interest-bearing deposits increased $1.8 billion and noninterest-bearing deposits decreased $992 million.
The Common Equity Tier 1 ratio was 11.23% at September 30, 2024 compared to 11.40% at December 31, 2023. Tier 1 risk-based capital and total risk-based capital ratios at September 30, 2024 were 12.24% and 13.88%, down from 12.42% and 13.96% at December 31, 2023, respectively.

PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS (MD&A)
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:

3Q24 FORM 10-Q REPORT
PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS (MD&A)
Net interest income of $627 million in third quarter 2024 decreased $2 million from second quarter 2024 and the net interest margin decreased 7 basis points to 3.31%, driven by increased deposit costs and higher levels of brokered deposits, partially offset by improvement in loan repricing. Loan yield increased 3 basis points and the cost of interest-bearing deposits increased 14 basis points.
Average earning assets of $76.1 billion in third quarter 2024 increased $878 million from second quarter 2024, largely due to a $384 million increase in average loans and leases, a $293 million increase in average interest-bearing deposits with banks, a $139 million increase in average investment securities and a $102 million increase in average trading securities, partially offset by a $38 million decrease in average securities purchased under agreements to resell. Average interest-bearing liabilities increased $1.1 billion, largely reflecting a $1.5 billionincrease in average interest-bearing deposits, partially offset by a $383 million decreasein average other short-term borrowings.
Third Quarter 2024 versus Third Quarter 2023
Net interest income increased $22 million from third quarter 2023 and the net interest margin increased 14 basis points to 3.31% in third quarter 2024, driven by higher yields on earning assets, partially offset by higher funding costs. Yields on earning assets increased 24 basis points while funding costs increased 4 basis points.
Average earning assets decreased $185 million from third quarter 2023, largely attributable to a $1.1 billion decrease in average interest-bearing deposits with banks, partially offset by a $981 million increase in average loans and leases. Average interest-bearing liabilities increased $1.4 billion, largely driven by a $1.8 billion increase in average interest-bearing deposits and a $300 millionincrease in average trading liabilities, partially offset by a $906 million decrease in average other short-term borrowings.

Third Quarter 2024 versus Second Quarter 2024
Noninterest income of $200 million increased $14 million, or 8%, from second quarter 2024, largely driven by an increase in fixed income production as well as an increase in various other noninterest income items.
Fixed income of $47 million increased $7 million from the prior quarter, driven by higher production as the market anticipated the decline in interest rates. Fixed income average daily revenue of $593 thousand increased 22% from $488 thousand in second quarter 2024.
Mortgage banking income of $9 million decreased $1 million, moderating slightly from home-buying season highs.
Other income increased $7 million, largely driven by a $3 million increase in deferred compensation income, $2 million in gains on disposition of fixed assets and a $1 million increase in bank owned life insurance benefits.
Third Quarter 2024 versus Third Quarter 2023
Noninterest income for third quarter 2024 increased $27 million, or 16%, compared to third quarter 2023, primarily driven by higher fixed income and brokerage, management fees and commissions.
Fixed income of $47 million increased $19 million from third quarter 2023, largely reflecting more favorable market conditions. Fixed income average daily revenue of $593 thousand increased $292 thousand, or 97%, compared to the same quarter of 2023.
Brokerage, management fees and commissions of $27 million increased $6 million, or 29%, as strong market performance improved wealth management fees.
Mortgage banking income of $9 million increased $2 million, driven by higher secondary volume.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, noninterest income of $581 million decreased $164 million, or 22%, compared to the same period in 2023, primarily from the gain on merger termination in 2023, partially offset by higher fixed income, mortgage banking income and brokerage, management fees and commissions in 2024.
Fixed income of $138 million increased $41 million, or 42% compared to the same period one year ago. Fixed income product revenue of $113 million increased $45 million, largely driven by more favorable market conditions. Revenue from other products of $25 million decreased $4
million, primarily driven by lower investment advisory fees due to the sale of the assets of FHN Financial Main Street Advisors in fourth quarter 2023 and lower derivative sales.
Brokerage, management fees and commissions of $76 million increased $10 million, or 15%, as strong market performance improved wealth management fees.
Mortgage banking income of $28 million increased $10 million, driven by higher secondary volume.

Third Quarter 2024 versus Second Quarter 2024
Noninterest expense of $511 million increased $11 million, or 2%, compared with second quarter 2024, largely reflecting $15 million in Visa derivative valuation expense.
Personnel expense of $282 millionincreased $3 million from the linked quarter. Incentive-based compensation decreased $3 million despite higher fixed income revenue, primarily due to a decline in retention expense and lower incentives in other variable compensation businesses. Deferred compensation expense increased $3 million compared to the linked quarter, reflecting fluctuations in equity market valuations.
Deposit insurance expense declined $5 million, reflecting an expense credit of $2 million for the FDIC special assessment based on revised resolution loss totals received from the FDIC in third quarter 2024.
Third Quarter 2024 versus Third Quarter 2023
Noninterest expense of $511 million increased $37 million, or 8%, from third quarter 2023.
Personnel expense increased $16 million compared to third quarter 2023. Salaries and employee benefits increased $11 million, largely attributable to annual merit adjustments and higher medical insurance expense. Deferred compensation expense increased $7 million, reflecting fluctuations in equity market valuations relative to the prior year. Incentive-based compensation decreased $1 million, largely reflecting a decline from retention expense, partially offset by an increase in compensation tied to higher fixed income production.
Increases in occupancy, computer software, operations services and legal and professional fees were largely attributable to strategic investment initiatives in third quarter 2024.
Other expense increased $14 million, largely reflecting $15 million in Visa derivative valuation expense in third quarter 2024.

3Q24 FORM 10-Q REPORT
PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS (MD&A)
For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, noninterest expense of $1.5 billion increased $19 million, or 1%, compared to the same period of 2023.
Contributions expense decreased $54 million, largely attributable to a $50 million contribution made to the First Horizon Foundation in 2023.
Personnel expense of $862 million increased $41 million, largely reflecting higher salaries and benefits expense as well as higher deferred compensation expense.
Legal and professional fees increased $14 million and computer software increased $7 million,largely attributable to strategic investments.
Deposit insurance expense of $51 million increased $11 million, reflecting the impact of the FDIC special assessment.
Advertising and public relations expense decreased $10 million, largely attributable to a new-to-bank deposit campaign and brand awareness initiatives that were launched during 2023.
There were no merger and integration related expenses in the first nine months of 2024 compared to $51 million for the same period of 2023. Restructuring expenses were $10 million for both year-to-date periods of 2024 and 2023.
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.
Provision for credit losses decreased to $35 million for the third quarter 2024, compared to $55 million for the
second quarter 2024 and $110 million for third quarter 2023. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, provision for credit losses was $140 million, compared to $210 million for the same period of 2023. The provision in 2023 reflected the impact of a $72 million credit loss from a single borrower in bankruptcy. For additional information about general asset quality trends, refer to the Asset Quality section in this MD&A.
Income Taxes
FHN recorded income tax expense of $58 million in third quarter 2024 compared to $56 million in second quarter 2024 and $52 million in third quarter 2023. For the nine
months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, FHN recorded income tax expense of$171 million and $223 million, respectively.
83
3Q24 FORM 10-Q REPORT
PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS (MD&A)
The effective tax rate was approximately 20.6%, 21.5%, and 26.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2024, June 30, 2024, and September 30, 2023, respectively. The effective tax rate was approximately 21.5% and 23.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
FHN’s effective tax rate is favorably affected by recurring items such as tax credits and other tax benefits from tax credit investments, tax-exempt income, and bank-owned life insurance. The effective rate is unfavorably affected by the non-deductible 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. For the three months ended September 30, 2024, FHN recognized $5 million of net favorable discrete items, primarily attributable to the lapse of the statute of limitations for uncertain tax positions. The higher rates for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 were primarily attributable to net unfavorable discrete items related to the termination of bank owned life insurance (BOLI) policies in the third quarter of 2023 and
the gain on merger agreement termination in the second quarter of 2023.
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 September 30, 2024, FHN’s gross DTA and gross DTL were $715 million and $529 million, respectively, resulting in a net DTA of $186 million at September 30, 2024, compared with a net DTA of $215 million at December 31, 2023.
As of September 30, 2024, FHN had deferred tax asset balances related to federal and state income tax carryforwards of $29 million and $3 million, respectively, which will expire at various dates.
Based on current analysis, FHN believes that its ability to realize the net DTA is more likely than not. FHN monitors its net 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 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this report for additional disclosures related to FHN's segments.
Regional Banking
The Regional Banking segment generated pre-tax income of $269 million for third quarter 2024, an increase of $28 million compared to second quarter 2024. Net interest income of $517 million decreased $5 million, driven by higher interest-bearing deposit costs, partially offset by improvement in loan repricing. Provision for credit losses of $33 million decreased $24 million from the prior quarter. Noninterest income increased $5 million compared to the prior quarter, largely driven by higher wealth management fees and deposit transaction and cash management fees. Noninterest expense decreased $4 million compared to second quarter 2024. largely due to a decline in other losses.
Pre-tax income for third quarter 2024 increased $28 million to $269 million, compared to $241 million for third quarter 2023. Net interest income decreased $41 million from third quarter 2023, driven by a decline in average noninterest-bearing deposits and thus lower earnings credit under the funds transfer pricing methodology, as well as higher interest-bearing deposit costs, partially offset by higher loan balances and yields. The provision for credit losses decreased $80 million compared to third quarter 2023, largely reflecting a credit
loss on a single relationship in 2023. Noninterest expense increased $19 million compared to third quarter 2023, largely due to higher personnel expense and expenses related to strategic investments. Results also reflect an $8 million increase in noninterest income compared to third quarter 2023, largely driven by improvement in wealth management fees.
Pre-tax income of $795 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 decreased $105 million compared to the same period of 2023, largely from a $121 million decrease in revenue primarily driven by net interest income. Provision for credit losses decreased $65 million, largely reflecting a credit loss on a single relationship in 2023. Noninterest expense increased $49 million, largely attributable to higher personnel expense and expenses related to strategic investments.
Specialty Banking
Pre-tax income in the Specialty Banking segment of $126 million for third quarter 2024 increased $8 million compared to second quarter 2024, largely driven by higher fixed income production. Provision for credit losses increased $2 million and noninterest expense increased $1 million.
Fixed income of $47 million increased $7 million, driven by higher production as the market anticipated the decline in interest rates. Mortgage banking income of $8 million decreased $2 million, moderating slightly from home-buying season highs.
84
3Q24 FORM 10-Q REPORT
PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS (MD&A)
Pre-tax income in the Specialty Banking segment increased $15 million compared to third quarter 2023. Revenue increased $24 million, primarily driven by higher fixed income production. Noninterest expense increased $8 million, largely driven by higher incentive-based compensation expense tied to the improvement in fixed income production.
Pre-tax income of $342 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 increased $46 million from the same period of 2023, largely reflecting a $47 million increase in noninterest income and a $9 million decrease in provision for credit losses, partially offset by a $19 million increase in noninterest expense. The increase in noninterest income was largely a result of higher fixed income and mortgage banking income. The increase in noninterest expense was largely attributable to higher personnel expense.
Corporate
Pre-tax loss for the Corporate segment was $114 million for third quarter 2024 compared to $99 million for second quarter 2024, largely reflecting a $14 million increase in noninterest expense. The increase in noninterest expense was largely attributable to $15 million in Visa derivative valuation expense. Results for third quarter 2024 also reflect $2 million in restructuring costs compared to $3 million in the prior quarter.
Pre-tax loss for the Corporate segment was $114 million compared to $158 million for third quarter 2023, largely reflecting a $57 million increase in net interest income, partially offset by a $10 million increase in noninterest expense. The increase in net interest income was tied to the impact of funds transfer pricing. The increase in noninterest expense was largely driven by $15 million in derivative valuation expense as well as higher personnel expense. The increase in personnel expense was largely driven by higher salaries and employee benefits and deferred compensation expense, partially offset by lower incentive-based compensation. These increases in noninterest expense were partially offset by a decline in deposit insurance expense compared to third quarter 2023.
Pre-tax loss of $342 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $246 million for the same period of 2023. The increase in loss was largely driven by the $225 million gain on merger termination in 2023, offset by the $50 million contribution to the First Horizon Foundation. Results in 2024 also reflect a $51 million decrease in merger and integration related expense and $10 million in net FDIC special assessment expense.
Analysis of Financial Condition
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 $62.4 billion as of September 30, 2024 increased $1.2 billion, or 2%, compared to December 31, 2023. Commercial loans and leases increased $948 million, primarily from growth in loans to mortgage companies and commercial real estate loans, partially offset by a decline in other C&I loans. Consumer loans increased $205 million, primarily from
growth in real estate installment loans, partially offset by declines in HELOCs, consumer construction and other consumer loans.
The following table provides detail regarding FHN's loans and leases as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
85
3Q24 FORM 10-Q REPORT
PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS (MD&A)
Loans held for sale primarily consists of government guaranteed loans under SBA and USDA lending programs. Smaller amounts of other consumer and home equity loans are also included in loans HFS. Additionally, FHN's mortgage banking operations include 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 non-conforming 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 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this report.
On September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, loans HFS were $494 million and $502 million, respectively. Held-for-sale consumer mortgage loans secured by residential real estate in process of foreclosure totaled $2 million as of both September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
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 had a concentration of residential real estate
loans of 22% and 23% of total loans at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Industry concentrations are discussed under the C&Iheading below.
Credit underwriting guidelines are outlined in Item 7 of FHN’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 in the Asset Quality section within the Analysis of Financial Condition discussion. FHN’s credit underwriting guidelines and loan product offerings as of September 30, 2024 are generally consistent with those reported and disclosed in FHN’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Commercial Loan and Lease Portfolios
C&I
C&I loans are the largest component of the loan and lease portfolio, comprising 53% of total loans as of both September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The C&I portfolio increased $459 million to $33.1 billion as of September 30, 2024, compared to $32.6 billion at December 31, 2023. The C&I portfolio 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

PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS (MD&A)
of credit, and trade credit enhancement through letters of credit.
The increase in C&I loans from December 31, 2023 was largely driven by growth in loans to mortgage companies partially offset by a decline in finance and insurance and various other portfolios. The largest geographical concentrations of balances in the C&I portfolio as of September 30, 2024 were in Tennessee (20%), Florida (12%), Texas (11%), North Carolina (7%), Louisiana (6%), California (6%), and Georgia (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 September 30, 2024 and
December 31, 2023. 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 are considered to exist for a financial institution 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 borrowers in the finance and insurance industry and loans to mortgage companies were 21% and 18% of FHN’s C&I loan portfolio as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, and as a result could be affected by items that uniquely impact the financial services industry. Loans to borrowers in the real estate and rental and leasing industry were 11% and 12% of FHN's C&I portfolio as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. As of September 30, 2024, FHN did not have any other concentrations of C&I loans in any single industry of 10% or more of total loans.
Real Estate and Rental and Leasing
Loans to borrowers in the real estate and rental and leasing industry were 11% and 12%of FHN's C&I portfolio
as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. This portfolio primarily consists of equipment financing loans and leases to clients across FHN's footprint in a broad range of industries and asset types. This portfolio also includes a smaller balance of loans and leases for solar and wind generating facilities.
Finance and Insurance
The finance and insurance component represented 11% and 12%of the C&I portfolio as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, 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 September 30, 2024, asset-based lending to consumer finance companies represented approximately $1.8 billion of the finance and insurance component.
Loans to Mortgage Companies
Loans to mortgage companies were 10% and 6%of the C&I portfolio as of September 30, 2024 and December 31,
87
3Q24 FORM 10-Q REPORT
PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS (MD&A)
2023, respectively. 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. Balances in this portfolio generally fluctuate 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 periods of economic uncertainty, this trend may not occur even if interest rates are declining. In third quarter 2024, 78% of the loan originations were home purchases and 22% were refinance transactions.
Commercial Real Estate
The CRE portfolio totaled $14.7 billion as of September 30, 2024 and $14.2 billion as of December 31, 2023. The CRE
portfolio includes financings for both commercial construction and non-construction loans. 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.
The largest geographical concentrations of CRE loan balances as of September 30, 2024 were in Florida (27%), Texas (12%), North Carolina (12%), Georgia (10%), Tennessee (9%), and Louisiana (8%). No other state represented more than 5% of the portfolio.

Consumer Loan Portfolios
Consumer Real Estate
The consumer real estate portfolio totaled $14.0 billion and $13.7 billion as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, and is primarily composed of home equity lines and installment loans. The largest geographical concentrations of balances as of September 30, 2024 were in Florida (29%), Tennessee (22%), Texas (12%), Louisiana (8%), North Carolina (7%), Georgia (5%), and New York (5%). No other state represented more than 5% of the portfolio.
As of September 30, 2024, 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 759, and the refreshed FICO scores averaged 756 as of September 30, 2024, representing no change from FICO scores as of December 31, 2023. Generally, performance of this portfolio is affected by life events that affect borrowers’ finances, the level of unemployment, and home prices.
As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, FHN had held-for-investment consumer mortgage loans secured by real estate that were in the process of foreclosure totaling $31 million and $29 million, respectively.
HELOCs comprised $2.1 billion and $2.2 billion of the consumer real estate portfolio as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, 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.
88
3Q24 FORM 10-Q REPORT
PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS (MD&A)
As of September 30, 2024, approximately 95% of FHN's HELOCs were in the draw period compared to 94% at December 31, 2023. It is expected that $583 million, or 29%, 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 consumer loan portfolio totaled $687 million as of September 30, 2024 and $793 million as of December 31, 2023. This portfolio primarily consists of consumer-related credits, including home equity and
other personal consumer loans, credit card receivables, and automobile loans. The $106 million decrease was primarily driven by net repayments in the overall portfolio.
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 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this report and “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” and Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 8 of FHN's 2023 Form 10-K.
The ALLL increased to $823 million as of September 30, 2024 from $773 million as of December 31, 2023. The increase in the ALLL balance as of September 30, 2024 reflects downgrades and an evolving macroeconomic
outlook. The ALLL to total loans and leases ratio increased 6 basis points to 1.32% compared to 1.26% as of December 31, 2023. The ACL to total loans and leases ratio was 1.44% and 1.40%as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The ACL to total loans and leases ratio increased modestly from 1.41% in second quarter 2024, driven by $8 million of qualitative reserves for Hurricane Helene and continued grade migration, partially offset by more favorable economic scenarios.
Consolidated Net Charge-offs
Net charge-offs in third quarter 2024 were $24 million, or an annualized 15 basis points of total loans and leases, compared to net charge-offs of $95 million, or 61 basis
points of total loans and leases, in third quarter 2023. Third quarter 2023 included a $72 million charge-off related to one client relationship in the C&I portfolio.

3Q24 FORM 10-Q REPORT
PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS (MD&A)
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 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. NPAs consist of nonperforming loans and OREO (excluding OREO from government insured mortgages).
Total NPAs (including NPLs HFS) increased to $585 million as of September 30, 2024 from $469 million as of
December 31, 2023, largely driven by an increase in non-accrual CRE loans partially offset by a decline in nonaccrual consumer real estate loans. The increase in nonaccrual CRE loans was largely driven by multi-family and office property types. This portfolio continues to maintain strong underwriting and client selection. In addition, over 60% of the commercial nonaccrual loan balance was current on payments as of September 30, 2024. The vast majority of NPAs have individual impairment reviews with no specific reserve required. The nonperforming loans and leases ratio increased 17 basis points to 0.92% as of September 30, 2024, compared to 0.75% as of December 31, 2023.

Past Due Loans and Potential Problem Assets
Past due loans are loans contractually past due as to interest or principal payments but which have not yet been put on nonaccrual status.
Loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing were $17 million as of September 30, 2024, compared to $21 million as of December 31, 2023. Loans 30 to 89 days past
due and still accruing decreased to $76 million as of September 30, 2024, compared to $85 million as of December 31, 2023, driven by a decrease of $4 million in C&I loans, a decrease of $3 million in CRE loans, and a decrease of $2 million in consumer loans.

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. 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 increased to
$1.7 billion as of September 30, 2024 compared to $666 million as of December 31, 2023, reflecting an increase in commercial loans. This increase was largely attributable to grade migration in the multi-family and office portfolios. 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 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Report for further discussion regarding troubled loan modifications.
94
3Q24 FORM 10-Q REPORT
PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS (MD&A)
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% 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 securities portfolio consisting primarily of bank-eligible GSE and GNMA 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 $9.5 billion and $9.7 billion on September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, representing 12% of total assets for both periods. For more information about the securities portfolio, see Note 2 - Investment Securities to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this report.

Total deposits of $66.6 billion as of September 30, 2024 increased $795 million, or 1%, compared to December 31, 2023. Interest-bearing deposits increased $1.8 billion and noninterest-bearing deposits decreased $992 million.
FHN continues to maintain a well-diversified and stable funding mix across its footprint and specialty lines of business. At September 30, 2024, commercial deposits were $37.3 billion, or 56% of total deposits, and consumer deposits were $29.3 billion, or 44% of total deposits. At December 31, 2023, commercial deposits were $35.9 billion, or 55% of total deposits, and consumer deposits were $29.9 billion, or 45% of total deposits.
At September 30, 2024, 37% of deposits were associated with Tennessee, 18% with Florida, 13% with North Carolina, and 12% with Louisiana, with no other state above 10%. This mix remained relatively consistent with December 31, 2023.
Total estimated uninsured deposits were $26.3 billion as of September 30, 2024 and $26.8 billion as of December 31, 2023, representing 39% and 41% of total deposits, respectively. Of the uninsured deposits at September 30, 2024, $4.2 billion, or 6% of total deposits, were collateralized. At December 31, 2023, collateralized deposits were $5.3 billion, or 8% of total deposits.
See Tables 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 $3.4 billion as of September 30, 2024 compared to $3.1 billion as of December 31, 2023. FHLB borrowings increased $400 million and trading liabilities increased $258 million while securities sold under agreements to repurchase decreased $310 million.
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 both September 30, 2024 andDecember 31, 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 September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, 25% and 50%, respectively, of the full amount is phased out and not included in Common Equity Tier 1 capital.
(b)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.2.26.
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 September 30, 2024, both 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.
For both FHN and First Horizon Bank, the risk-based regulatory capital ratios decreased at the end of third quarter 2024 relative to year-end 2023 primarily from the impact of common share repurchases and an increase in risk-weighted assets. The Tier 1 Leverage ratio for FHN and First Horizon Bank decreased from year-end 2023 largely as a result of common share repurchases. The Series D Preferred Stock redemption in second quarter 2024 did not impact FHN's regulatory capital ratios as it did not qualify as Tier 1 capital because the earliest redemption date was less than five years from the issuance date.
For the remainder of 2024 and in 2025, capital ratios are expected to remain above well-capitalized standards plus the required capital conservation buffer.
Common Stock Purchases
FHN may purchase shares of its common stock from time to time, subject to legal and regulatory restrictions. FHN's Board has authorized the common stock purchase program described below. FHN’s Board has not authorized a preferred stock purchase program.
January 2024 General Purchase Program
On January 23, 2024, FHN announced that its Board of Directors had approved a $650 million common share purchase program that was scheduled to expire on January 31, 2025. Purchases could be made in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions,
98

PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS (MD&A)
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 were at the discretion of senior management and were subject to various factors, including FHN's capital position, financial performance, expected capital impacts of strategic initiatives, market conditions, business conditions, and regulatory considerations. Absent a Rule 10b5-1 plan, FHN did not intend to purchase shares under this program during blackout periods when senior
executives were prohibited from purchasing FHN stock on the open market.
As of September 30, 2024, $441 million in purchases had been made life-to-date under the 2024 program at an average price per share of $15.03, or $15.01 excluding commissions. Program purchases made during the quarter ended September 30, 2024 are summarized in the following table.

On October 29, 2024, FHN announced that its Board of Directors had approved a new $1.0 billion common share purchase program to replace the January 2024 program discussed above. The new October program is scheduled to expire on January 31, 2026. The January 2024 program discussed above was terminated effective the close of business on October 29, 2024. Purchases under the new program 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 at the discretion of senior management and 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. Absent a Rule 10b5-1 plan, FHN does not purchase shares under this program during blackout periods when senior executives are prohibited from purchasing FHN stock on the open market.
Stock Award Purchases
As authorized by the Board's Compensation Committee, FHN makes automatic stock purchases by withholding stock-based award shares to cover tax obligations associated with those awards. Those limited, off-market purchases are not associated with an announced purchase program and are made any time an associated tax obligation arises, whether or not a blackout period is in effect. Tax withholding purchases made during the quarter ended September 30, 2024 are summarized in the following table.

There have been no significant changes to FHN’s risk management practices as described under “Risk Management” included in Item 7 of FHN’s 2023 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:

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 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
101

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 September 30, 2024, 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/minus 200 basis points are estimated to have variances as shown in the table below.

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 0.3%. 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 0.4%. 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 had reached their highest levels in 15 years prior to September 2024's 50 basis point rate cut. Coupled with market disruption from recent high profile bank failures, this high interest rate environment has increased competitive pressures on deposit costs.
The yield curve was inverted for much of the last half of 2022, throughout 2023, and during the first eight months of 2024 before flattening in September 2024. An inverted yield curve indicates market expectations that short-term rates have likely peaked and then could decline in future periods. Following the 50 basis point rate cut in September 2024 and a 25 basis point cut in November, market participants are now projecting zero or one further 25 basis point rate cut in 2024 with an additional two to four cuts projected in 2025. FHN continues to monitor current economic trends and potential exposures closely. For additional information, see YieldCurve 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 forecasts of its
liquidity position and funding needs. 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. As of September 30, 2024, available liquidity sources included cash, incremental borrowing capacity at the FHLB, access to Federal Reserve Bank borrowings through the discount window, and unencumbered securities. Additional sources of liquidity included dealer and commercial customer repurchase agreements, access to the overnight and term Federal Funds markets, brokered deposits, loan sales, and syndications. The table below details FHN's sources of available liquidity at September 30, 2024.
102
3Q24 FORM 10-Q REPORT
PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS (MD&A)
(a) Included in interest-bearing deposits with banks on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
(b) Subject to market haircuts on collateral.
Generally, a primary source of funding for a bank is core deposits from the bank's client base. The period-end loans-to-deposits ratio was 94% as of September 30, 2024 and 93% as of December 31, 2023.
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.
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 September 30, 2024, FHN had outstanding $798 million in senior and subordinated unsecured debt and $426 million in non-cumulative perpetual preferred stock. FHN redeemed all outstanding shares of its Series D Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock during second quarter 2024. As of September 30, 2024, 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, the Bank’s total amount available for dividends was $1.0 billion as of October 1, 2024.
First Horizon Bank declared and paid common dividends to the parent company in the amount of $310 million in first quarter 2024, $150 million in second quarter 2024, $350 million in third quarter 2024, and $300 million in fourth quarter 2024. Total common dividends of $220 million were declared and paid to the parent company in 2023. First Horizon Bank declared and paid preferred dividends in the first three quarters of 2024 and in 2023. Additionally, First Horizon Bank declared preferred dividends in fourth quarter 2024, payable in January 2025.
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 October 1, 2024. FHN paid cash dividends of $1,625 per Series E preferred share and $1,175 per Series F preferred share on October 10, 2024 and $165 per Series C preferred share on November 1, 2024. In addition, in October 2024, 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
103
3Q24 FORM 10-Q REPORT
PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS (MD&A)
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.
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 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this report, 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 total repurchase and foreclosure liability, which includes both the legacy pre-2009 business and the current mortgage business, was $15 million and $16 million as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
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.
In addition to trends and events noted elsewhere in this MD&A, FHN believes the following trends and events are noteworthy at this time.
104
3Q24 FORM 10-Q REPORT
PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS (MD&A)
The post-COVID economy in the U.S. has been marked by: strong inflation, which began in 2021, peaked in 2022, and abated, though not fully, starting in 2023; the Federal Reserve "tightening" in 2022 and the first half of 2023 to contain inflation by rapidly increasing short-term interest rates and ending asset purchases; low unemployment rates; 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 concerns moderated significantly. In 2024, recession expectations have remained generally low.
•The rise in short-term interest rates by the Federal Reserve in 2022 was both rapid and substantial, taking the overnight Fed Funds rate from 0.20% in March 2022 to 4.65% a year later. Hikes after that were much more modest and infrequent.
•In 2023 the Federal Reserve signaled an end to hikes. No rate actions were taken for more than a year, until a 50 basis point cut in September 2024. Future actions continue to depend upon future data.
•In response to 2022's extremely rapid and vigorous tightening of monetary policy, the inflation rate in the U.S. now is well below 2022's levels. However, measures of inflation generally remain higher than 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) was both very deep and unusually sustained, with inversion lasting from the summer of 2022 to September 2024.
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 in the first part of 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 more-typical 25 basis points each. The Federal Reserve cut rates 50 basis points in September 2024 and 25 basis points in November 2024.
FHN cannot predict exactly when or how much short-term rates will be changed, how market-driven long-term rates will behave, nor how those actions may affect financial markets during the next several quarters.
Yield Curve
Unusual yield curve effects, including inversion, are common when monetary policy changes. A traditional
measure of inversion occurs when the two-year U.S. Treasury rate is higher than the ten-year rate. Traditional inversion was sustained continuously from the summer of 2022 until September 2024, an unusually long period. The degree of inversion varied during that period, but often was much deeper than is typical. Sustained traditional yield curve inversion is viewed, with statistical support, as a harbinger of economic recession, but recession did not occur.
Early in the fourth quarter of 2024, the yield curve is relatively flat, meaning the two-year U.S. Treasury rate is only modestly lower than the ten-year rate.
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. Both of those impacts occurred over the past two years, with fluctuations. 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, 2023, for a discussion of the risks to FHN associated with flattening and inversion.
Recession
The U.S. economy contracted (experienced negative growth) during the first two quarters of 2022, in both cases modestly. Although the occurrence of two consecutive quarters of contraction often coincides with recession, in 2022 it did not. The economy has expanded in each quarter since then. The expansion rate has varied without a sustained trend.
Recession expectations in the U.S. were high in 2022 and early 2023. They moderated significantly after that. In 2024 recession expectations have fluctuated but generally have remained low.
Fiscal Policy
The Federal Reserve controls monetary policy for the U.S. government, but not fiscal policy (spending and taxation). Fiscal policy directly affects U.S. government annual deficits or surpluses, along with the size and trajectory of the national debt. Fiscal policy often has a significant impact on the U.S. economy. Some of the unusual or unexpected aspects of the post-COVID economy likely were created or supported by historically unusual fiscal stimulus and other stimulative policies which pushed, and in some cases continue to push, substantial amounts of money into the economy.
The federal elections in November 2024 could result in significant changes in U.S. fiscal policy in 2025 and 2026.
2023 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.
105
3Q24 FORM 10-Q REPORT
PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS (MD&A)
In May 2023, a third large regional U.S. bank failed after experiencing very large deposit outflows in March. In the aftermath of these failures, bank investors and clients across the U.S. became more focused on deposit mix, funding risk management, and other safety-soundness concerns. Most U.S. banks saw abrupt net outflows of deposits in the spring of 2023 following the failures. Most have since recouped those deposits, mainly by offering higher interest rates. In 2024, competition for deposits has been quite intense.
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, and FHN's net interest margin (NIM) started to compress. FHN was able to reverse the compression during 2023 fueled in part by using increased deposits and capital to reduce more-expensive borrowings. FHN's NIM further improved in the first half of 2024 compared with the second half of 2023. Third quarter NIM contracted modestly while remaining higher than in 2023.
In 2024 through third quarter, improvements in loan yields have been largely offset by higher funding costs, especially for deposits. Deposit costs have increased
largely in response to heightened competition in many of FHN's markets. Although that competitive environment is expected to continue, rate cuts are expected to moderate funding costs, especially as old commitments expire. A key uncertainty is whether rate cuts will impact loan yields as strongly as funding costs, and at the same times.
In addition, some of FHN's businesses have been negatively impacted by rate actions in the past two years and by the unusual yield curve. Rate increases pushed home mortgage rates in the U.S. much higher in 2022 and 2023, reducing demand. FHN's direct mortgage lending and lending to mortgage companies saw business decline significantly in 2022 and 2023. Mortgage rates modestly abated in 2024 through third quarter, and FHN's related businesses improved, but long-term rates remain well above the lows of a few years ago and even have trended upward since late in the third quarter. Moreover, FHN's revenues from bond trading and related activities fell significantly in 2022 and 2023 due to rising rates coupled with elevated market volatility. In 2024, bond trading revenues have improved markedly, but with significant volatility quarter-to-quarter. Bond revenues likely have fluctuated due to changing market expectations about rate moves, among other things.
Other Regulatory Proposals
In 2023, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve and other regulators proposed regulatory changes that would, if implemented, significantly increase regulatory constraints and costs on all U.S. banks with assets over $100 billion. A few new requirements would apply to banks, like FHN, with assets over $50 billion, but by far the main impacts would fall on banks greater than $100 billion in assets.
The proposals touch upon many regulatory requirements, including debt and equity capital requirements, credit risk standards, asset risk-weighting, and resolution planning. The increased requirements also would entail additional compliance costs.
The triggering of significant cost increases based on a single threshold financial measure—$100 billion in assets
—has been in place for many years and has impacted the U.S. banking industry. Compliance restrictions and costs increase as the threshold is approached but a step-up pattern remains. Those effects have added to the incentives for banks to consolidate, and the proposed new rules are likely to enhance that.
It appears likely that, if adopted as proposed, significant parts of the proposals will be challenged in court as being inconsistent with legislation enacted by Congress in 2018. Such a challenge would be technical and complex, and likely would take many years to resolve. Moreover, even if a challenge of that sort were successful, many parts of the proposals likely would remain intact and others might be modified without being rescinded.
Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Reporting Regimes
In October 2023, the state of California enacted laws which, taken together, will require most larger companies doing business in California to report annually their greenhouse gas ("GHG") emissions, with an external assurance requirement, and to report biennially their climate-related financial risks and risk-mitigation measures. The California laws include multi-year phase in periods and encompass Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 GHG emissions. As currently enacted, the laws require implementing regulations to be adopted by July 1, 2025,
and reporting for Scopes 1 and 2 to begin in 2026 for the 2025 fiscal year.
In March 2024, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") adopted final rules, “The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors” (the “SEC Climate Disclosures Rules”). These Rules would require all U.S. companies with publicly-traded securities to report annually their Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions and related risk management processes, and would include a related financial statement
106
3Q24 FORM 10-Q REPORT
PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS (MD&A)
and audit requirement, among other things. Refer to "Accounting Changes" below for additional information. The SEC Climate Disclosures Rules also have a lengthy phase-in period.
Europe also has adopted a GHG reporting regime. It is not applicable to FHN and is not further discussed here.
Three GHG Scopes
Scope 1 GHG emissions are those from a source the company owns or controls directly, such as a manufacturing plant. Scope 2 emissions are indirect emissions from company activities, such as from power consumed by company operations. Scope 1 and 2 emissions generally can be measured or estimated using information a company normally can obtain without significant external inquiry.
Scope 3 GHG emissions are those from sources and activities that a company neither owns nor controls. Scope 3 emissions are from a wide range of sources that touch upon a company, such as: vendors; employees (commuting, business travel, etc.); and customers. Scope 3 information generally is unknown to a company without significant external inquiry and/or estimation.
Potential Business Impacts
Direct compliance costs will include creating systems to measure or estimate and capture relevant data, staffing, and engagement of vendors, including a firm to provide required assurances (somewhat analogous to a financial statement auditor).
Potentially of more significance: California may require inquiry of customers rather than mere estimation about them. If FHN is allowed merely to estimate emissions from customers, that process may be costly but would not interfere with its business relationships. If, however, FHN is required to support Scope 3 reporting by obtaining
GHG-related information from customers, including customers that are not public companies and that do no business in California, then the California disclosure laws could interfere with FHN's business. In that case, effectively FHN would be required to impose costs and/or inconveniences on its customers. Other banks in FHN's markets, particularly those that are private and not doing business in California, could provide financial services without those requirements, putting FHN at a competitive disadvantage.
Legal Challenges
The California laws, especially the application of those laws to companies outside of California, have been challenged in court. Challengers assert that the laws, among other things, unconstitutionally burden interstate commerce, are pre-empted by federal law, and unconstitutionally compel or burden speech. Challenges could take many years to resolve. A key practical question will be whether the courts maintain a legal stay (a moratorium) on these laws nationwide while challenges are pending.
The SEC Climate Disclosures rules likewise are being challenged in court. Challengers assert, among other things, that the SEC lacks explicit Congressional authorization to create a regulatory reporting regime pertaining to GHG emissions. The several challenges have been consolidated in the U.S. (federal) 8th Circuit. Possibly anticipating a court-ordered stay, the SEC has suspended the effectiveness of its rules while the court challenges are pending.
Assuming that the various legal challenges leave the SEC Climate Disclosures Rules entirely or largely intact, the California laws might be further challenged by public companies as having been pre-empted by the SEC Rules.
Market Growth and Weather Events
FHN's principal markets are in the southern and southeastern United States, including most of the major gulf coast markets and several markets on the southern Atlantic seacoast. Many of FHN's markets, both coastal and non-coastal, have experienced significant population growth over at least the past twenty years, outpacing the growth rate for the U.S. as a whole. That population growth generally has been accompanied by economic growth.
Many of FHN's fastest growing markets, including most significantly those in Florida, can be impacted significantly by hurricanes and other severe coastal weather events. As those markets grow, FHN's economic commitment to them grows, as does FHN's financial exposure to those events.
Over the past two years it has been widely reported that the economic costs of hurricane and other severe weather
events in the southeastern U.S. have been rising significantly. FHN believes that rising costs are directly related to growth in those areas.
For example, much of the growth in Florida has been along the coast moving out from older cities. A gulf coast hurricane 50 or 60 years ago had a fair chance of making landfall in a relatively unpopulated area. Now, the chances of directly hitting a population center are much higher, the average population in that center is much higher, and the average value per building is much higher.
The reported significant increase in casualty risks and costs is being reflected in property insurance practices which currently are in significant flux. The insurance industry is being forced to revise its risk assessment and premium pricing practices in coastal and other impacted areas as loss experience has deviated from earlier predictions, sometimes badly. In Florida, for example,
107
3Q24 FORM 10-Q REPORT
PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS (MD&A)
some smaller carriers have failed, some larger carriers have left markets, and remaining carriers have significantly increased the premiums of hurricane-related insurance, narrowed coverage, or both.
Coastal states such as Florida and Louisiana have created last-resort insurance pools for residents who cannot obtain or afford private property insurance. However, as the costs borne by those pools increase, either the premiums will have to rise or general taxation will have to cover the difference. In addition, those programs generally do not help business clients, nor are they offered in many states that can be severely impacted by hurricane-related flooding.
State and local building and water-control codes are being revised, but often unevenly and often not retroactive to
pre-existing structures and developments. The current transition period could be lengthy.
The availability, reliability, and cost of adequate property insurance is a significant concern for FHN as well as FHN's clients in affected markets. Instability in property insurance has made, and continues to make, FHN's business decisions more difficult. That instability increases FHN's risks of loan loss and business downturn.
More fundamentally, elevated insurance and casualty costs blunt a key factor driving growth in many of these high-growth markets: lower costs of living. If market growth slows, FHN's business could be impacted.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
FHN has made no significant changes in its critical accounting policies and estimates from those disclosed in its 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Accounting Changes
In March 2024, the SEC adopted its Climate Disclosures Rules (refer to "Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Reporting Regimes" above). Those Rules, when effective, will require registrants to disclose certain climate-related information in registration statements and annual reports. Information required for inclusion within the footnotes to the financial statements for severe weather events and other natural conditions includes 1) income statement effects before insurance recoveries above 1% of pre-tax income/loss, 2) balance sheet effects above 1% of shareholders’ equity, and 3) certain carbon offsets and renewable energy credits. Qualitative discussion is also required for material impacts on financial estimates and assumptions that are due to severe weather events and other natural conditions or disclosed climate-related targets or transition plans.
Disclosures that are outside the financial statements include 1) Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions, if material, 2) how the Board of Directors oversees the assessment and management of climate-related risks, 3) management’s role in assessing and managing climate-related risks if the risks are material, 4) climate-related risks that have had or are reasonably likely to have a material effect on its business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition, including whether the risks are expected to manifest in the short term (i.e., next 12 months) and, separately, in the long term (i.e., beyond the next 12 months), 5) if a registrant has adopted a plan to manage material climate transition risks, the plan should be described and updated annually to specify its progress toward completing the transition plan, including any actions taken under the plan and how those actions
have affected the registrant’s business, results of operations, or financial condition, 6) if a registrant has adopted a plan to manage material climate transition risks, the plan should be described and updated annually to specify its progress toward completing the transition plan, including any actions taken under the plan and how those actions have affected the registrant’s business, results of operations, or financial condition, 7) quantitative price disclosures if a registrant uses an internal carbon price (e.g., a monetary cost assigned to carbon emissions for budgeting, forecasting, or performance management) and this use is material to how it evaluates material climate-related risks, 8) if a registrant uses a scenario analysis to assess its business in the context of climate-related risks and, on the basis of that analysis, determines that a climate-related risk is reasonably likely to have a material impact, the registrant must describe each scenario, including the parameters, assumptions, and projected financial impacts, 9) the registrant's processes for “identifying, assessing and managing” material climate-related risks, 10) information about the registrant's publicly announced or internal climate-related targets or goals if they materially affect or are reasonably likely to materially affect the registrant's business, results of operations, or financial condition (e.g., expenditures or operational changes needed to meet the targets or goals) and 11) quantitative and qualitative descriptions of the material expenditures incurred and material impacts on financial estimates and assumptions that, in management’s assessment, directly result from activities to mitigate or adapt to material climate-related risks.

PART I, ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS (MD&A)

Therefore, the actual timing of the implementation of the Climate Disclosure Rules, if sustained through the judicial process, is uncertain. FHN is assessing the potential effects of the Climate Disclosure Rules on its registration statements and annual reports.
