Renasant Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)


Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


(In Thousands)
Nature of Operations: Renasant Corporation (referred to herein as the “Company”) owns and operates Renasant Bank (“Renasant Bank” or the “Bank”) and Renasant Insurance, Inc. (“Renasant Insurance”). The Company offers a diversified range of financial, wealth management and insurance services to its retail and commercial customers through its subsidiaries and full service offices located throughout north and central Mississippi, Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama and north Florida.
Basis of Presentation: The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. For further information regarding the Company’s significant accounting policies, refer to the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 28, 2019.
Business Combinations: The Company completed its acquisition of Brand Group Holdings, Inc. (“Brand”) on September 1, 2018. The acquired institution’s financial condition and results of operations are included in the Company’s financial condition and results of operations as of the acquisition date. Due to the timing of the system conversion and the integration of operations into the Company’s existing operations, historical reporting for acquired operations is impracticable, and, therefore, disclosure of the amounts of revenue and expenses of the acquired institution since the acquisition date is impracticable.
In connection with the acquisition of Brand,previous periods, the Company acquiredcarried a portfolio of non-mortgage consumer loans which is included in the line item “Loans held for sale” on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet withSheet. This portfolio consisted primarily of loans acquired in the Brand acquisition. During the third quarter of 2019, the Company made the decision to hold the portfolio for the foreseeable future and therefore transfered the loans from the held for sale category to the held for investment category.
During the third quarter of 2019, the Company redeemed its $30,000 principal amount 8.50% fixed rate subordinated notes that were assumed as part of the Brand acquisition. The Company incurred a balancedebt prepayment penalty of $122,756 as of March 31, 2019. In accordance with$900, which was accounted for in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 850, “Business Combinations”, these loans were measured atpurchase accounting fair value as ofadjustment on the acquisition date. Subsequent to the acquisition date, these loans are carried at the lower of amortized cost or fair value.subordinated notes.
Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material.


Impact of Recently-Issued Accounting Standards and Pronouncements:
In February 2016, FASB issuedEffective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)”and its related amendments (“ASC 842”), which amendschanges the accounting model and disclosure requirements for leases. Topic 842 was subsequently amended by the following updates: ASU 2018-01, “Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842”, ASU 2018-10, “Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases”, andASU 2018-11, “Targeted Improvements” (collectively, “ASC 842”).The currentformer accounting model for leases distinguishesdistinguished between capital leases, which arewere recognized on the balance sheet, and operating leases, which arewere not.  Under the new standard, the lease classifications are defined as finance leases, which are similar to capital leases under currentprior GAAP, and operating leases.  Further, under the new standard a lessee will recognizerecognizes a lease liability and a right-of-use asset for all leases with a term greater than 12 months on its balance sheet regardless of the lease’s classification, which may significantly increase reported assets and liabilities.classification.  The accounting model and disclosure requirements for lessors remains substantially unchanged from currentprior GAAP.  This standard became effective on January 1, 2019.  A modified retrospective transition approach is required, applying the new standard to all leases existing at the date of initial application. The Company chose to use the effective date approach and, as such, all periods presented after January 1, 2019 are in accordance with ASC 842 whereas periods presented prior to January 1, 2019 are in accordance with prior lease accounting. Financial information was not updated, and the disclosures required under ASC 842, were not provided for dates and periods before January 1, 2019. TheUpon adoption, the Company recorded a right-of-use asset in the amount of $53,042 and a corresponding lease liability in the amount of $56,562.$56,562 on January 1, 2019. The Company has included newly applicable lease disclosures in this filing in Note 19, “Leases.”
In June 2016, FASBthe Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (“ASU 2016-13”). This update will significantly change the way entities recognize impairment on many financial assets by requiring immediate recognition of estimated credit losses

expected to occur over the asset’s remaining life.

FASB describes this impairment recognition model as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model and believes the CECL model will result in more timely recognition of credit losses since the CECL model incorporates expected credit losses versus incurred credit losses. The scope of FASB’s CECL model includes loans, held-to-maturity debt instruments, lease receivables, loan commitments and financial guarantees that are not accounted for at fair value. For public companies, this update is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company has formed an implementation committee comprised of both accounting and credit employees to guide Renasant Bank through the implementation of ASU 2016-13. The Company has also engaged a third party to act as a consultant and software provider to assist in the implementation of the CECL model. The implementation committee and the consultant have established the CECL blueprint for Renasantthe Bank, which includes the selected methodology, proper pool segmentation and loan data validation. Currently, the CECL committee is working with the consultant to buildfurther develop and test the CECL model and expects to run a preliminary CECL calculationqualitative factors used in the second quartermodel, including the reasonable and supportable forecast period. The CECL committee, along with the members of the Company's risk management team, is also currently working with an external model validation team to complete an independent validation. The Company will continue refining and testing the model throughout the remainder of 2019.
In January 2017, FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350)” (“ASU 2017-04”). ASU 2017-04 will amend and simplify current goodwill impairment testing by eliminating certain testing under the current provisions. Under the new guidance, an entity should perform the goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying value and recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. An entity still has the option to perform the quantitativequalitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if a quantitative impairment test is necessary. ASU 2017-04 will be effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019 and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
In March 2017, FASB issued ASU 2017-08, “Receivables - Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities” (“ASU 2017-08”). ASU 2017-08 requires the amortization period for certain callable debt securities held at a premium to be the earliest call date.  ASU 2017-08 became effective January 1, 2019 and did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
In August 2017, FASB issued ASU 2017-12, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities” (“ASU 2017-12”). ASU 2017-12 is intended to simplify hedge accounting by eliminating the requirement to separately measure and report hedge effectiveness. ASU 2017-12 also seeks to expandexpands the application of hedge accounting by modifying current requirements to include hedge accounting on partial-term hedges, the hedging of prepayable financial instruments and other strategies.  This update became effective January 1, 2019 and did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
In August 2018, FASB issued ASU 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement” (“ASU 2018-13”). ASU 2018-13 is intended to improve the disclosures on fair value measurements by eliminating, amending and adding certain disclosure requirements. These changes are intended to reduce costs for preparers while providing more useful information for financial statement users.   ASU 2018-13 will be effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted.  The Company is currently evaluating the effect that ASU 2018-13 will have on its financial position and results of operations and its financial statement disclosures.
In March 2019, FASB issued ASU 2019-01, “Leases (Topic 842): Codification Improvements” (“ASU 2019-01”). ASU 2019-01 is intended to clarify potential implementation questions related to ASC 842. This includes clarification on the determination of fair value of underlying assets by lessors that are not manufacturers or dealers, cash flow presentation of sales-type and direct financing leases and transition disclosures related to accounting changes and error corrections.  ASU 2019-01 will be effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted.  The Company is currently evaluating the effect that ASU 2019-01 will have on its financial position and results of operations and its financial statement disclosures.

The Company evaluates its investment portfolio for other-than-temporary-impairment (“OTTI”) on a quarterly basis. Impairment is assessed at the individual security level. The Company considers an investment security impaired if the fair value of the security is less than its cost or amortized cost basis. Impairment is considered to be other-than-temporary if the Company intends to sell the investment security or if the Company does not expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security before the Company is required to sell the security or before the security’s maturity.


The Company does not intend to sell any securities in an unrealized loss position that it holds, and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell any such security prior to the recovery of its amortized cost basis, which may be at maturity. Furthermore, even though a number of these securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position for a period

greater than twelve months, the Company is collecting principal and interest payments from the respective issuers as scheduled. As such, the Company did not record any OTTI for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 or 2018.
The Company holds investments in pooled trust preferred securities that had an amortized cost basis of $12,25912,160 and $12,359 and a fair value of $10,2469,862 and $10,633 at March 31,September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. At March 31,September 30, 2019, the investments in pooled trust preferred securities consisted of two2 securities representing interests in various tranches of trusts collateralized by debt issued by over 150 financial institutions. Management’s determination of the fair value of each of its holdings in pooled trust preferred securities is based on the current credit ratings, the known deferrals and defaults by the underlying issuing financial institutions and the degree to which future deferrals and defaults would be required to occur before the cash flow for the Company’s tranches is negatively impacted. In addition, management continually monitors key credit quality and capital ratios of the issuing institutions. This determination is further supported by quarterly valuations, which are performed by third parties, of each security obtained by the Company. The Company does not intend to sell the investments before recovery of the investments’ amortized cost, and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the investments before recovery of the investments’ amortized cost, which may be at maturity. At March 31,September 30, 2019, management did not, and does not currently, believe such securities will be settled at a price less than the amortized cost of the investment, but the Company previously concluded that it was probable that there had been an adverse change in estimated cash flows for both trust preferred securities and recognized credit related impairment losses on these securities in 2011. NoNaN additional impairment was recognized during the threenine months endedMarch 31,September 30, 2019.

Past Due and Nonaccrual Loans
Loans are considered past due if the required principal and interest payments have not been received as of the date such payments were due. Generally, the recognition of interest on mortgage and commercial loans is discontinued at the time the loan is 90 days past due unless the credit is well-secured and in process of collection. Consumer and other retail loans are typically charged-off no later than the time the loan is 120 days past due. In all cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual status or charged-off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful. Loans may be placed on nonaccrual status regardless of whether or not such loans are considered past due. All interest accrued for the current year, but not collected, for loans that are placed on nonaccrual status or charged-off is reversed against interest income. The interest on these loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual status. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

Impaired Loans
A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis for commercial, consumer and construction loans of $500 or more by, as applicable, the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s obtainable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans are evaluated collectively for impairment. When the ultimate collectability of an impaired loan’s principal is in doubt, wholly or partially, the loan is placed on nonaccrual status and all cash receipts are applied to principal. Once the recorded balance has been reduced to zero, future cash receipts are applied to interest income, to the extent any interest has been foregone, and then they are recorded as recoveries of any amounts previously charged-off. For impaired loans, a specific reserve is established to adjust the carrying value of the loan to its estimated net realizable value.

Restructured Loans
Restructured loans are those for which concessions have been granted to the borrower due to a deterioration of the borrower’s financial condition and which are performing in accordance with the new terms. Such concessions may include reduction in interest rates or deferral of interest or principal payments. In evaluating whether to restructure a loan, management analyzes the long-term financial condition of the borrower, including guarantor and collateral support, to determine whether the proposed concessions will increase the likelihood of repayment of principal and interest.
The tables below illustrate the impact of modifications classified as restructured loans which were made during the periods presented and held on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at the respective period end. There were no newly restructured loans during the three months ended March 31, 2019.

Credit Quality
For commercial and commercial real estate loans, internal risk-rating grades are assigned by lending, credit administration or loan review personnel, based on an analysis of the financial and collateral strength and other credit attributes underlying each loan. Management analyzes the resulting ratings, as well as other external statistics and factors such as delinquency, to track the migration performance of the portfolio balances of these loans. Loan grades range between 1 and 9, with 1 being loans with the least credit risk. Loans within the “Pass” grade (historically, those with a risk rating between 1 and 4) generally have a lower risk of loss and therefore a lower risk factor applied to the loan balances. Management has established more granular risk rating categories to better identify heightened credit risk as loans migrate downward in the risk rating system. The “Pass” grade is now reserved for loans with a risk rating between 1 and 4A, and the “Watch” grade (those with a risk rating of 4B and 4E) is utilized on a temporary basis for “Pass” grade loans where a significant adverse risk-modifying action is anticipated in the near term. Loans that migrate toward the “Substandard” grade (those with a risk rating between 5 and 9) generally have a higher risk of loss and therefore a higher risk factor applied to the related loan balances. The following table presents the Company’s loan portfolio by risk-rating grades as of the dates presented:

Allowance for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level believed adequate by management based on its ongoing analysis of the loan portfolio to absorb probable credit losses inherent in the entire loan portfolio, including collective impairment as recognized under ASC 450, “Contingencies”. Collective impairment is calculated based on loans grouped by grade. Another component of the allowance is losses on loans assessed as impaired under ASC 310. The balance of these loans and their related allowance is included in management’s estimation and analysis of the allowance for loan losses. Management and the internal loan review staff evaluate the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses quarterly. The allowance for loan losses is evaluated based on a continuing assessment of problem loans, the types of loans, historical loss experience, new lending products, emerging credit trends, changes in the size and character of loan categories and other factors, including its risk rating system, regulatory guidance and economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective, as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available. The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged to earnings resulting from measurements of inherent credit risk in the loan portfolio and estimates of probable losses or impairments of individual loans. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectability of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.

Note 9 – Mortgage Servicing Rights
(In Thousands)
The Company retains the right to service certain mortgage loans that it sells to secondary market investors. These mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) are recognized as a separate asset on the date the corresponding mortgage loan is sold. MSRs are amortized in proportion to and over the period of estimated net servicing income. These servicing rights are carried at the lower of amortized cost or fair value. Fair value is determined using an income approach with various assumptions including expected cash flows, prepayment speeds, market discount rates, servicing costs, and other factors. Servicing rights are evaluated for impairment based upon the fair value of the rights as compared to carrying amount. Impairment losses on MSRs areis recognized through a valuation allowance, to the extent that unamortized cost exceeds fair value. If the Company later determines that all or a portion of the impairment no longer exists, a reduction of the valuation allowance may be recorded as an increase to income. Changes in valuation allowances related to servicing rights are reported in mortgage banking income on the income statement. The fair values of servicing rights are subject to significant fluctuations as a result of changes in estimated and actual prepayment speeds and default rates and losses. There were no impairment losses$3,132 of valuation adjustments on MSRs during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, primarily arising on account

Note 11 – Derivative Instruments
(In Thousands)
The Company utilizes derivative financial instruments, including interest rate contracts such as swaps, caps and/or floors, as part of its ongoing efforts to mitigate its interest rate risk exposure and to facilitate the needs of its customers. The Company also from time to time enters into derivative instruments that are not designated as hedging instruments to help its commercial customers manage their exposure to interest rate fluctuations. To mitigate the interest rate risk associated with these customer contracts, the Company enters into an offsetting derivative contract position. The Company manages its credit risk, or potential risk of default by its commercial customers, through credit limit approval and monitoring procedures. At March 31,September 30, 2019, the Company had notional amounts of $204,403204,590 on interest rate contracts with corporate customers and $204,403204,590 in offsetting interest rate contracts with other financial institutions to mitigate the Company’s rate exposure on its corporate customers’ contracts and certain fixed-rate loans.


In June 2014, the Company entered into two2 forward interest rate swap contracts on floating rate liabilities at the Bank level with notional amounts of $15,000 each. The interest rate swap contracts are each accounted for as a cash flow hedge with the objective of protecting against any interest rate volatility on future FHLB borrowings for a four-year and five-year period beginning June 1, 2018 and December 3, 2018 and ending June 2022 and June 2023, respectively. Under these contracts, Renasantthe Bank will paypays a fixed interest rate and will receivereceives a variable interest rate based on the three-month LIBOR plus a pre-determined spread, with quarterly net settlements.
In March and April 2012, the Company entered into two2 interest rate swap agreements effective March 30, 2014 and March 17, 2014, respectively. Under these swap agreements, the Company receives a variable rate of interest based on the three-month LIBOR plus a pre-determined spread and pays a fixed rate of interest. The agreements, which both terminate in March 2022, are accounted for as cash flow hedges to reduce the variability in cash flows resulting from changes in interest rates on $32,000 of the Company’s junior subordinated debentures.
In April 2018, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement effective June 15, 2018. Under this swap agreement, the Company receives a variable rate of interest based on the three-month LIBOR plus a pre-determined spread and pays a fixed rate of interest. The agreement, which terminates in June 2028, is accounted for as a cash flow hedge to reduce the variability in cash flows resulting from changes in interest rates on $30,000 of the Company’s junior subordinated debentures.
The Company enters into interest rate lock commitments with its customers to mitigate the interest rate risk associated with the commitments to fund fixed-rate and adjustable-rate residential mortgage loans. The notional amount of commitments to fund fixed-rate and adjustable-rate mortgage loans was $206,394316,330 and $159,464 at March 31,September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

For the Company’s derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, changes in fair value of the cash flow hedges are, to the extent that the hedging relationship is effective, recorded as other comprehensive income and are subsequently recognized in earnings at the same time that the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portions of the changes in fair value of the hedging instruments are immediately recognized in earnings. The assessment of the effectiveness of the hedging relationship is evaluated under the hypothetical derivative method. There were no ineffective portions for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 or 2018. The impact on other comprehensive income for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, can be seen at Note 15, “Other Comprehensive Income (Loss).”


Offsetting


Certain financial instruments, including derivatives, may be eligible for offset in the consolidated balance sheet when the “right of offset” exists or when the instruments are subject to an enforceable master netting agreement, which includes the right of the non-defaulting party or non-affected party to offset recognized amounts, including collateral posted with the counterparty, to determine a net receivable or net payable upon early termination of the agreement. Certain of the Company’s derivative instruments

are subject to master netting agreements; however, the Company has not elected to offset such financial instruments in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The following table presents the Company’s gross derivative positions as recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as well as the net derivative positions, including collateral pledged to the extent the application of

Note 14 – Fair Value Measurements
(In Thousands)
Fair Value Measurements and the Fair Level Hierarchy
ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” provides guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities and also establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to a valuation based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1), moderate priority to a valuation based on quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities and/or based on assumptions that are observable in the market (Level 2), and the lowest priority to a valuation based on assumptions that are not observable in the market (Level 3).
Recurring Fair Value Measurements
The Company carries certain assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis in accordance with applicable standards. The Company’s recurring fair value measurements are based on the requirement to carry such assets and liabilities at fair value or the Company’s election to carry certain eligible assets and liabilities at fair value. Assets and liabilities that are required to be carried at fair value on a recurring basis include securities available for sale and derivative instruments. The Company has elected to carry mortgage loans held for sale at fair value on a recurring basis as permitted under the guidance in ASC 825, “Financial Instruments” (“ASC 825”).

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)


The following methods and assumptions are used by the Company to estimate the fair values of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that are measured on a recurring basis:
Securities available for sale: Securities available for sale consist primarily of debt securities, such as obligations of U.S. Government agencies and corporations, obligations of states and political subdivisions, mortgage-backed securities and trust preferred securities,

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)


and other debt securities. Where quoted market prices in active markets are available, securities are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. If quoted prices from active markets are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices for similar instruments traded in active markets, quoted market prices for identical or similar instruments traded in markets that are not active, or model-based valuation techniques where all significant assumptions are observable in the market. Such instruments are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. When assumptions used in model-based valuation techniques are not observable in the market, the assumptions used by management reflect estimates of assumptions used by other market participants in determining fair value. When there is limited transparency around the inputs to the valuation, the instruments are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Derivative instruments: The Company uses derivatives to manage various financial risks. Most of the Company’s derivative contracts are extensively traded in over-the-counter markets and are valued using discounted cash flow models which incorporate observable market based inputs including current market interest rates, credit spreads, and other factors. Such instruments are categorized within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and include interest rate swaps and other interest rate contracts such as interest rate caps and/or floors. The Company’s interest rate lock commitments are valued using current market prices for mortgage-backed securities with similar characteristics, adjusted for certain factors including servicing and risk. The value of the Company’s forward commitments is based on current prices for securities backed by similar types of loans. Because these assumptions are observable in active markets, the Company’s interest rate lock commitments and forward commitments are categorized within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Mortgage loans held for sale in loans held for sale: Mortgage loans held for sale are primarily agency loans which trade in active secondary markets. The fair value of these instruments is derived from current market pricing for similar loans, adjusted for differences in loan characteristics, including servicing and risk. Because the valuation is based on external pricing of similar instruments, mortgage loans held for sale are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
The following table presents assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of the dates presented:

These nonrecurring fair value adjustments typically are a result of the application of the lower of cost or market accounting or a write-down occurring during the period. The following table provides the fair value measurement for assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis that were still held on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of the dates presented and the level within the fair value hierarchy each is classified:

The following methods and assumptions are used by the Company to estimate the fair values of the Company’s financial assets measured on a nonrecurring basis:


Impaired loans: Loans considered impaired are reserved for at the time the loan is identified as impaired taking into account the fair value of the collateral less estimated selling costs. Collateral may be real estate and/or business assets including but not limited to equipment, inventory and accounts receivable. The fair value of real estate is determined based on appraisals by qualified licensed appraisers. The fair value of the business assets is generally based on amounts reported on the business’s financial statements.

Appraised and reported values may be adjusted based on changes in market conditions from the time of valuation and management’s knowledge of the client and the client’s business. Since not all valuation inputs are observable, these nonrecurring fair value determinations are classified as Level 3. Impaired loans are reviewed and evaluated on at least a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly, based on the same factors previously identified. Impaired loans that were measured or re-measured at fair value had a carrying value of $9,52127,265 and $22,621 at March 31,September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, and a specific reserve for these loans of $9691,847 and $935 was included in the allowance for loan losses as of such dates.
Other real estate owned: OREO is comprised of commercial and residential real estate obtained in partial or total satisfaction of loan obligations. OREO acquired in settlement of indebtedness is recorded at the fair value of the real estate less estimated costs to sell. Subsequently, it may be necessary to record nonrecurring fair value adjustments for declines in fair value. Fair value, when recorded, is determined based on appraisals by qualified licensed appraisers and adjusted for management’s estimates of costs to sell. Accordingly, values for OREO are classified as Level 3.
The following table presents OREO measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis that was still held in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of the dates presented:

Mortgage servicing rights: The Company retains the right to service certain mortgage loans that it sells to secondary market investors. Mortgage servicing rights are carried at the lower of amortized cost or fair value. Fair value is determined using an

income approach with various assumptions including expected cash flows, market discount rates, prepayment speeds, servicing costs, and other factors. Because these factors are not all observable and include management's assumptions, mortgage servicing rights are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Mortgage servicing rights were carried at amortized cost at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. There were $3,132 of valuation adjustments on MSRs during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 0 valuation adjustments recognized during the twelve months ended December 31, 2018.

Fair Value Option
The Company elected to measure all mortgage loans originated for sale on or after July 1, 2012 at fair value under the fair value option as permitted under ASC 825. Electing to measure these assets at fair value reduces certain timing differences and better matches the changes in fair value of the loans with changes in the fair value of derivative instruments used to economically hedge them.
Net losses of $769 and net gains of $1,437$3,895 and $1,723 resulting from fair value changes of these mortgage loans were recorded in income during the threenine months endedMarch 31,September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The amount does not reflect changes in fair values of related derivative instruments used to hedge exposure to market-related risks associated with these mortgage loans. The change in fair value of both mortgage loans held for sale and the related derivative instruments are recorded in “Mortgage banking income” in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
The Company’s valuation of mortgage loans held for sale incorporates an assumption for credit risk; however, given the short-term period that the Company holds these loans, valuation adjustments attributable to instrument-specific credit risk is nominal. Interest income on mortgage loans held for sale measured at fair value is accrued as it is earned based on contractual rates and is reflected in loan interest income on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Note 16 – Net Income Per Common Share
(In Thousands, Except Share Data)
Basic net income per common share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income per common share reflects the pro forma dilution of shares outstanding, assuming outstanding service-based restricted stock awards fully vested and outstanding stock options were exercised into common shares, calculated in accordance with the treasury method. Basic and diluted net income per common share calculations are as follows for the periods presented:

Note 17 – Regulatory Matters
(In Thousands)
The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.


The Federal Reserve, the FDIC and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency have issued guidelines governing the levels of capital that bank holding companies and banks must maintain. Those guidelines specify capital tiers, which include the following classifications:

Common equity Tier 1 capital (“CET1”) generally consists of common stock, retained earnings, accumulated other comprehensive income and certain minority interests, less certain adjustments and deductions. In addition, the Company must maintain a “capital conservation buffer,” which is a specified amount of CET1 capital in addition to the amount necessary to meet minimum risk-based capital requirements. The capital conservation buffer is designed to absorb losses during periods of economic stress. If the Company’s ratio of CET1 to risk-weighted capital is below the capital conservation buffer, the Company will face restrictions on its ability to pay dividends, repurchase outstanding stock and make certain discretionary bonus payments. The required capital conservation buffer is 2.5% of CET1 to risk-weighted assets in addition to the amount necessary to meet minimum risk-based capital requirements. As shown in the tables above, as of March 31,September 30, 2019, the Company’s CET1 capital was in excess of the capital conservation buffer.

In addition, the Basel III regulatory capital reforms and rules effecting certain changes required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 issued by the Federal Reserve, the FDIC and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (the “Basel III Rules”) have revised the agencies’ rules for calculating risk-weighted assets to enhance risk sensitivity and to incorporate certain international capital standards of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision. These revisions affect the calculation of the denominator of a banking organization’s risk-based capital ratios to reflect the higher-risk nature of certain types of loans. As applicable to Renasantthe Bank:


— For residential mortgages, the former 50% risk weight for performing residential first-lien mortgages and 100% risk-weight for all other mortgages has been replaced with a risk weight of between 35% and 200% determined by the mortgage’s loan-to-value ratio and whether the mortgage falls into one of two categories based on eight criteria that include the term, use of negative amortization and balloon payments, certain rate increases and documented and verified borrower income.


— For commercial mortgages, a 150% risk weight for certain high volatility commercial real estate acquisition, development and construction loans has been substituted for the former 100% risk weight.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)



— For nonperforming loans, the former 100% risk weight is now a 150% risk weight for loans, other than residential mortgages, that are 90 days past due or on nonaccrual status.
Finally, Tier 1 capital treatment for “hybrid” capital items like trust preferred securities has been eliminated, subject to various grandfathering and transition rules.


Note 18 – Segment Reporting
(In Thousands)
The operations of the Company’s reportable segments are described as follows:
The Community Banks segment delivers a complete range of banking and financial services to individuals and small to medium-sized businesses including checking and savings accounts, business and personal loans, asset-based lending and equipment leasing, as well as safe deposit and night depository facilities.
The Insurance segment includes a full service insurance agency offering all major lines of commercial and personal insurance through major carriers.
The Wealth Management segment offers a broad range of fiduciary services which include the administration and management of trust accounts including personal and corporate benefit accounts, self-directed IRAs, and custodial accounts. In addition, the Wealth Management segment offers annuities, mutual funds and other investment services through a third party broker-dealer.
In order to give the Company’s divisional management a more precise indication of the income and expenses they can control, the results of operations for the Community Banks, the Insurance and the Wealth Management segments reflect the direct revenues and expenses of each respective segment. Indirect revenues and expenses, including but not limited to income from the Company’s investment portfolio as well as certain costs associated with data processing and back office functions, primarily support the operations of the community banks and, therefore, are included in the results of the Community Banks segment. Included in “Other” are the operations of the holding company and other eliminations which are necessary for purposes of reconciling to the consolidated amounts.

Note 19 - Leases
(In Thousands)


The Company adopted ASC 842 in the first quarter of 2019. The Company enters into leases in both lessor and lessee capacities.


ASC 842 provided for a number of optional practical expedients, of which the Company has elected several including (i) the option not to separate the lease and non-lease components; (ii) the ‘package“package of practical expedients, where the Company does not have to reassess (A) whether expired or existing contracts contain leases under the new definition of a lease, (B) lease classification for expired or existing leases and (C) whether previously capitalized initial direct costs would qualify for capitalization under ASC 842; and (iii) the use of hindsight in determining the lease term, which permits the use of information available after lease inception to determine the lease term via the knowledge of renewal options exercised but not available at the leaseslease’s inception.


The practical expedient pertaining to land easements is not applicable to the Company.


Lessor Arrangements
The Company provides equipment financing to its customers through sales type or direct financing lease arrangements. These leases are carried at the aggregate of lease payments receivable plus the estimated residual value of the leased property less unearned income, which is accreted into interest income over the lease’s term using methods that approximate the interest method. These arrangements generally do not contain non-lease components. Lease agreements may include renewal and purchase options.


As of March 31,September 30, 2019, the net investment in these leases was $8,967,$8,979, comprised of $7,164$7,167 in lease receivables, $2,408$2,415 in residual balances and $605$603 in deferred income. In order to mitigate potential exposure to residual asset risk, the Company utilizes first amendment or terminal rental adjustment clause leases.


For the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019, the Company generated $81$78 and $237, respectively, in income, which is included in interest income on loans on the Consolidated Statements of Income from these leases.
The maturities of the lessor arrangements outstanding at March 31,September 30, 2019 is presented in the table below.

Total lease receivables$8,967


Lessee Arrangements
All of the Company’s lessee arrangements are operating leases, being real estate leases for Company facilities. Under these arrangements, the Company records right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities, each of which is based on the present value of the remaining lease payments and are discounted at the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. Right-of-use assets are reported in premises and equipment on the Consolidated Balance SheetSheets and the related lease liabilities are reported in other liabilities. All leases are recorded on the Consolidated Balance SheetSheets except for leases with an initial term less than 12 months for which the Company elected the short-term lease recognition exemption. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is recorded in occupancy and equipment expense in the Consolidated StatementStatements of Income. Variable lease payments consist primarily of common area maintenance and taxes. The Company does not have any material sublease agreements currently in place.


As of March 31,September 30, 2019, right-of-use assets totaled $52,478$86,654 and lease liabilities totaled $56,049.$90,455. Lease terms may contain renewal and extension options and early termination features. Many leases include one or more options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term from one to 20 years or more. The exercise of lease renewal options is at the Company’s sole discretion.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(In Thousands, Except Share Data)


This Form 10-Q may contain or incorporate by reference statements regarding Renasant Corporation (referred to herein as the “Company”, “we”, “our”, or “us”) that constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such forward-looking statements usually include words such as “expects,” “projects,” “proposes,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “intends,” “estimates,” “strategy,” “plan,” “potential,” “possible,” “approximately,” “should” and variations of such words and other similar expressions. The forward-looking statements in, or incorporated by reference into, this report reflect our current assumptions and estimates of, among other things, future economic circumstances, industry conditions, business strategy and decisions, Company performance and financial results. Management believes its assumptions and estimates are reasonable, but they are all inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive risks and uncertainties, many beyond management’s control, that could cause the Company’s actual results and experience to differ from the anticipated results and expectations indicated or implied in such forward-looking

statements. Such differences may be material. Investors are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and, accordingly, investors should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made.


Important factors currently known to management that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in forward-looking statements include the following risks: (1) the Company’s ability to efficiently integrate acquisitions into its operations, retain the customers of these businesses, grow the acquired operations and realize the cost savings expected from an acquisition to the extent and in the time frame anticipated by management; (2) the effect of economic conditions and interest rates on a national, regional or international basis; (3) timing and success of the implementation of changes in operations to achieve enhanced earnings or effect cost savings; (4) competitive pressures in the consumer finance, commercial finance, insurance, financial services, asset management, retail banking, mortgage lending and auto lending industries; (5) the financial resources of, and products available to, competitors; (6) changes in laws and regulations as well as changes in accounting standards; (7) changes in policy by regulatory agencies; (8) changes in the securities and foreign exchange markets; (9) the Company’s potential growth, including its entrance or expansion into new markets, and the need for sufficient capital to support that growth; (10) changes in the quality or composition of the Company’s loan or investment portfolios, including adverse developments in borrower industries or in the repayment ability of individual borrowers; (11) an insufficient allowance for loan losses as a result of inaccurate assumptions; (12) general economic, market or business conditions, including the impact of inflation; (13) changes in demand for loan products and financial services; (14) concentration of credit exposure; (15) changes or the lack of changes in interest rates, yield curves and interest rate spread relationships; (16) increased cybersecurity risk, including potential network breaches, business disruptions or financial losses; (17) natural disasters and other catastrophic events in the Company’s geographic area; (18) the impact, extent and timing of technological changes; and (19) other circumstances, many of which are beyond management’s control.


The Company expressly disclaims any obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions or estimates, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results that occur after the date the forward-looking statements are made.

Loans Held for Sale
Loans held for sale were $318,563$392,448 at March 31,September 30, 2019 compared to $411,427 at December 31, 2018. Included in the balance of loans held for sale at MarchDecember 31, 20192018 is a portfolio of non-mortgage consumer loans inwhich totaled $191,579. In the amount of $122,756, as compared to $191,578 at December 31, 2018. During the firstthird quarter of 2019, the Company sold approximately $42,727 ofreclassified this portfolio at par.from loans held for sale to loans held for investment. At the time of the transfer, the portfolio totaled approximately $134,335.
The remainder of the balance of loans held for sale is comprised of mortgage loans held for sale. Mortgage loans to be sold are sold either on a “best efforts” basis or under a mandatory delivery sales agreement. Under a “best efforts” sales agreement, residential real estate originations are locked in at a contractual rate with third party private investors or directly with government sponsored agencies, and the Company is obligated to sell the mortgages to such investors only if the mortgages are closed and funded. The risk we assume is conditioned upon loan underwriting and market conditions in the national mortgage market. Under a mandatory delivery sales agreement, the Company commits to deliver a certain principal amount of mortgage loans to an investor at a specified price and delivery date. Penalties are paid to the investor if we fail to satisfy the contract. Gains and losses are realized at the time consideration is received and all other criteria for sales treatment have been met. Our standard practice is to sell the loans within 30-40 days after the loan is funded. Although loan fees and some interest income are derived from mortgage loans held for sale, the main source of income is gains from the sale of these loans in the secondary market.

Deposits

The Company relies on deposits as its major source of funds. Total deposits were $10,268,912$10,286,036 and $10,128,557 at March 31,September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Noninterest-bearing deposits were $2,366,223$2,607,056 and $2,318,706 at March 31,September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, while interest-bearing deposits were $7,902,689$7,678,980 and $7,809,851 at March 31,September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.
Management continues to focus on growing and maintaining a stable source of funding, specifically core deposits. Under certain circumstances, however, management may seek to acquire non-core deposits in the form of public fund deposits or time deposits. The source of funds that we select depends on the terms and how those terms assist us in mitigating interest rate risk, maintaining our liquidity position and managing our net interest margin. Accordingly, funds are acquired to meet anticipated funding needs at the rate and with other terms that, in management’s view, best address our interest rate risk, liquidity and net interest margin parameters.
Public fund deposits are those of counties, municipalities or other political subdivisions and may be readily obtained based on the Company’s pricing bid in comparison with competitors. SinceBecause public fund deposits are obtained through a bid process, these deposit balances may fluctuate as competitive and market forces change. Although the Company has focused on growing stable sources of deposits to reduce reliance on public fund deposits, it participates in the bidding process for public fund deposits when pricing and other terms make it reasonable given market conditions andor when management perceives that other factors.factors make such participation advisable. Our public fund transaction accounts are principally obtained from municipalities including school boards and utilities. Public fund deposits were $1,356,208$1,313,202 and $1,271,139 at March 31,September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.
Looking at the change in deposits geographically, deposits in our Western Region, Eastern Region and Northern Region markets increased $213,770, $38,657$80,534, $115,330 and $194,$32,347, respectively, from December 31, 2018, while deposits in our Central Region markets decreased $64,070$70,732 from December 31, 2018 primarily due to a decrease in public fund deposits.
Borrowed Funds
Total borrowings include securities sold under agreements to repurchase, advances from the FHLB, subordinated notes and junior subordinated debentures and are classified on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as either short-term borrowings or long-term debt. Short-term borrowings have original maturities less than one year and typically include securities sold under agreements to repurchase, federal funds purchased and short-term FHLB advances. At March 31,September 30, 2019, short-term borrowings consisted of $7,590$9,131 in security repurchase agreements and short-term borrowings from the FHLB of $80,000,$196,471, compared to security repurchase agreements of $7,706 and short-term borrowings from the FHLB of $380,000 at December 31, 2018.
At March 31,September 30, 2019, long-term debt, consisting of long-term FHLB advances, our junior subordinated debentures and our subordinated notes, totaled $263,269$228,104 compared to $263,618 at December 31, 2018.2018, with the decrease primarily driven by the redemption of subordinated notes discussed below. Funds are borrowed from the FHLB primarily to match-fund against certain loans, negating interest rate exposure when rates rise. Such match-funded loans are typically large, fixed rate commercial or real estate loans with long-term maturities. Long-term FHLB advances were $6,492$4,055 and $6,690 at March 31,September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. At March 31,September 30, 2019, there were $1,731$1,681 in long-term FHLB advances outstanding scheduled to mature within twelve months or less. The Company had $3,548,225$3,621,677 of availability on unused lines of credit with the FHLB at March 31,September 30, 2019 compared to $3,301,543 at December 31, 2018.

The Company owns the outstanding common securities of business trusts that issued corporation-obligated mandatorily redeemable preferred capital securities to third-party investors. The trusts used the proceeds from the issuance of their preferred capital securities and common securities (collectively referred to as “capital securities”) to buy floating rate junior subordinated debentures issued by the Company (or by companies that the Company subsequently acquired.) The debentures are the trusts’ only assets and interest payments from the debentures finance the distributions paid on the capital securities. The Company’s junior subordinated debentures totaled $109,781$110,070 at March 31,September 30, 2019, compared to $109,636 at December 31, 2018.

Net Interest Income
Net interest income, the difference between interest earned on assets and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities, is the largest component of our net income, comprising 76.16%74.40% of total revenue (i.e., net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis and noninterest income) for the third quarter of 2019 and 74.55% of total net revenue for the first quarternine months of 2019. The primary concerns in managing net interest income are the volume, mix and repricing of assets and liabilities.
Net interest income was $113,147$108,825 and $334,772 for the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019, respectively, as compared to $89,240$99,439 and $281,068 for the same periodrespective periods in 2018.

(1)U.S. Government and some U.S. Government Agency securities are tax-exempt in the states in which we operate.
(2)Interest-bearing demand deposits include interest-bearing transactional accounts and money market deposits.
The average balances of nonaccruing assets are included in the tables above. Interest income and weighted average yields on tax-exempt loans and securities have been computed on a fully tax equivalent basis assuming a federal tax rate of 21% and a state tax rate of 4.45%, which is net of federal tax benefit.
Net interest margin and net interest income are influenced by internal and external factors. Internal factors include balance sheet changes in volume, mix and pricing decisions. External factors include changes in market interest rates, competition and the shape of the interest rate yield curve. As discussed in more detail below, for both the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019, as compared to the corresponding periodsame respective periods in 2018, growth in the Company’s loan portfolio was the largest contributing factor to the increase in net interest income over these periods. Also,The Company capitalized on the Company’s continued efforts to replacerising rate environment over the last two years, ending in July 2019, by replacing maturing loans with new or renewed loans at similar or higher rates, bolstered byrates. These efforts helped offset the rate environment resulting from the Federal Reserve Board’s increasesnegative impact to the target federal funds rate over the last two years, and coupled with our efforts to limit the growth in deposits and borrowing costs (while

remaining competitive), drove furthernet interest income and net interest margin expansion (after excludingfrom rising costs of our deposits and borrowings as competition increased in response to the impact from purchase accounting adjustments).aforementioned rate environment.

The following table sets forth a summary of the changes in interest earned, on a tax equivalent basis, and interest paid resulting from changes in volume and rates for the Company for both the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 compared to the same periodrespective periods in 2018 (the changes attributable to the combined impact of yield/rate and volume have been allocated on a pro-rata basis using the absolute ratio value of amounts calculated):

Interest expense on deposits was $19,772$21,514 and $8,059$13,556 for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The cost of total deposits was 0.79%0.84% and 0.40%0.60% for the same respective periods. Interest expense on deposits was $62,277 and $32,534 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The cost of total deposits was 0.82% and 0.51% for the same respective periods. The increase in both deposit expense and cost is attributable to both the increase in the average balance of all interest-bearing deposits resulting from the Brand acquisition and organic deposit growth as well as an increase in the interest rates on interest-bearing deposits. During 2019, the Company has continued its efforts to grow non-interest bearing deposits, resulting in an increase in such deposits of $198,072 during the third quarter of 2019 and $288,530 during the first nine months of 2019. Although the Company continues to seek changes in the mix of its deposits from higher costing time deposits to lower costing interest-bearing deposits and noninterest-bearing deposits, rates offered on the Company’s interest-bearing deposit accounts, including time deposits, have increased to match competitive market interest rates in order to maintain stable sources of funding.
Interest expense on total borrowings was $4,175$4,137 and $3,081$4,800 for the first three months ofended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Interest expense on total borrowings was $12,383 and $11,147 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The decrease in the quarter-to-date average balance of borrowings is the primary driver for the decrease in interest expense on borrowings for the three months ended September 30, 2019, when compared to the same period in 2018. Although the year-to-date average balance of borrowings also decreased, the Company assumed subordinated notes and junior subordinated debentures in its acquisition of Brand, increasing the average balancerate and mix of the higher costing long-term borrowings for theduring first threenine months of 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018. This increase in the average balance of borrowings, together with higher rates charged on short-term FHLB advances, is the primary driver for the2018, which led to an overall increase in interest expense on borrowings.for nine months ended September 30, 2019, when compared to the same period in 2018. The subordinated notes assumed were redeemed early in the third quarter of 2019.
A more detailed discussion of the cost of our funding sources is set forth below under the heading “Liquidity and Capital Resources” in this item.Item.

Noninterest income was $115,798 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to $107,587 for the same period in 2018. While the acquisition of Brand improvedboosted the growth of our noninterest income, our continued focus on diversification of our income streams also resulted in an increase in nearly all of the Company’s components of noninterest income.
Service charges on deposit accounts include maintenance fees on accounts, per item charges, account enhancement charges for additional packaged benefits and overdraft fees. Service charges on deposit accounts were $9,102$8,992 and $8,473$8,847 for the three months ended March 31,third quarter of 2019 and 2018, respectively, and were $26,699 and $25,591 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Overdraft fees, the largest component of service charges on deposits, were $6,139$5,713 for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 compared to $5,908$6,181 for the same period in 2018. These fees were $17,140 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $17,810 for the same period in 2018.
Fees and commissions were $6,471 for$3,090 during the first three monthsthird quarter of 2019 as compared to $5,685$5,944 for the same period in 2018, and were $16,608 for the first nine months of 2019 as compared to $17,546 for the same period in 2018. Fees and commissions include fees related to deposit services, such as ATM fees and interchange fees on debit card transactions. InterchangeFor the third quarter of 2019, interchange fees were $5,328 for the three months ending March 31, 2019$2,210 as compared to $4,787$5,095 for the same period in 2018. As a result of our total assets being above $10,000,000, beginningInterchange fees were $13,526 for the nine months ending September 30, 2019 as compared to $14,990 for the same period in 2018. Effective July 1, 2019, we will bebecame subject to the limitations on interchange fees imposed pursuant to §1075 of the Dodd-Frank Act (this provision, which is commonly referred to as the “Durbin Amendment,” is discussed in more detail in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018). We expect the DurbanThe Durbin Amendment limitations to reducereduced interchange fees by approximately $10,000-$11,000 annually.$3,000 during the third quarter of 2019. Management is continuing to develop and enhance strategies to offset this impact.
Through Renasant Insurance, we offer a range of commercial and personal insurance products through major insurance carriers. Income earned on insurance products was $2,116$2,508 and $2,005$2,461 for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and was $6,814 and $6,576 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Contingency income is a bonus received from the insurance underwriters and is based both on commission income and claims experience on our clients’ policies during the previous year. Increases and decreases in contingency income are reflective of corresponding increases and decreases in the amount of claims paid by insurance carriers. Contingency income, which is included in “Other noninterest income” in the Consolidated Statements of Income, was $757$21 and $762$22 for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $807 and $816 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Our Wealth Management segment has two primary divisions: Trust and Financial Services. The Trust division operates on a custodial basis which includes administration of employee benefit plans, as well as accounting and money management for trust accounts. The division manages a number of trust accounts inclusive of personal and corporate accounts, self-directed IRAs, and custodial accounts. Fees for managing these accounts are based on changes in market values of the assets under management in the account, with the amount of the fee depending on the type of account. The Financial Services division provides specialized products and services to our customers, which include fixed and variable annuities, mutual funds, and stocks offered through a

third party provider. Wealth Management revenue was $3,324$3,588 for the three months ended March 31,third quarter of 2019 compared to $3,262$3,386 for the same period in 2018.

Mortgage banking income is derived from the origination and sale of mortgage loans and the servicing of mortgage loans that the Company has sold but retained the right to service. Although loan fees and some interest income are derived from mortgage loans held for sale, the main source of income is gains from the sale of these loans in the secondary market. Originations of mortgage loans to be sold totaled $741,904 in the third quarter of 2019 compared to $479,920 for the same period in 2018. Mortgage loan originations totaled $384,103$1,680,729 in the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 compared to $362,803$1,318,484 for the same period in 2018. The increase in mortgage loan originations is due to an increase in producers throughout our footprint during the current year.year as well as the current interest rate environment. Mortgage banking income, specifically mortgage servicing income, was negatively impacted during the third quarter of 2019 by a mortgage servicing rights valuation adjustment of $3,132, as actual prepayment speeds of the mortgages the Company serviced exceeded the Company’s estimates of prepayment speeds. The table below presents the components of mortgage banking income included in noninterest income for the three months ending March 31:periods presented.

The Company did not record any merger and conversion related expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2019, while $900 was recorded during the first quarter of 2018. The increase year over year for the first three months was primarily driven by the additional expenses associated with the acquisition of Brand’s operations, as discussed in more detail in the remainder of this section.

The efficiency ratio is one measure of productivity in the banking industry. This ratio is calculated to measure the cost of generating one dollar of revenue. That is, the ratio is designed to reflect the percentage of one dollar which must be expended to generate that dollar of revenue. The Company calculates this ratio by dividing noninterest expense by the sum of net interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis and noninterest income. The table above shows the impact on the efficiency ratio of expenses that (1) the Company does not consider to be part of our normal operations,core operating activities, such as amortization of intangibles, or (2) the Company incurred in connection with certain transactions where management is unable to accurately predict the timing of when these expenses will be incurred or, when incurred, the amount of such expenses, such as merger and conversion related expenses. We remain committed to aggressively managing our costs within the framework of our business model. We expect the efficiency ratio to continue to improve from currently reported levels as a result of revenue growth while at the same time controlling noninterest expenses.
Income Taxes
Income tax expense for the three months ended March 31,third quarter of 2019 and 2018 was $13,590$11,132 and $9,673,$8,532, respectively. The effective tax rates for those periods were 23.15%22.92% and 22.24%21.07%, respectively. Income tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 were $38,667 and $28,629, respectively. The effective tax rates for those periods were 23.04% and 21.83%, respectively. The increase in taxable income is the primary driver in the increase in income tax expense from the firstthird quarter of 2018 to the firstthird quarter of 2019.
Risk Management


The management of risk is an on-going process. Primary risks that are associated with the Company include credit, interest rate and liquidity risk. Credit risk and interest rate risk are discussed below, while liquidity risk is discussed in the next subsection under the heading “Liquidity and Capital Resources.”
Credit Risk and Allowance for Loan Losses



Inherent in any lending activity is credit risk, that is, the risk of loss should a borrower default. The Company’s credit quality remained strong induring the first quarternine months of 2019, and the Company continues to see the lowest levels of charge-offs and nonperforming loans since the 2008-2009 recession. These results are due in part to current economic conditions both nationally and in the Company’s markets, including declining unemployment levels, improved labor participation rate and improved performance of the housing market, as well as the Company’s continued efforts to bring problem credits to resolution.
Management of Credit Risk. Credit risk is monitored and managed on an ongoing basis by a credit administration department, a loss management committee and the Board of Directors Loan Committee. Credit quality, adherence to policies and loss mitigation are major concerns of credit administration and these committees. The Company’s central appraisal review department reviews

and approves third-party appraisals obtained by the Company on real estate collateral and monitors loan maturities to ensure updated appraisals are obtained. This department is managed by a State Certified General Real Estate Appraiser and employs twothree additional State Certified General Real Estate appraisers one Appraisal Intern and three real estate evaluators.
We have a number of documented loan policies and procedures that set forth the approval and monitoring process of the lending function. Adherence to these policies and procedures is monitored by management and the Board of Directors. A number of committees and an underwriting staff oversee the lending operations of the Company. These include in-house loss management committees and the Board of Directors Loan Committee. In addition, we maintain a loan review staff separate from the credit administration department to independently monitor loan quality and lending practices. Loan review personnel monitor and, if necessary, adjust the grades assigned to loans through periodic examination, focusing their review on commercial and real estate loans rather than consumer and small balance consumer mortgage loans, such as 1-4 family mortgage loans.
In compliance with loan policy, the lending staff is given lending limits based on their knowledge and experience. In addition, each lending officer’s prior performance is evaluated for credit quality and compliance as a tool for establishing and enhancing lending limits. Before funds are advanced on consumer and commercial loans below certain dollar thresholds, loans are reviewed and scored using centralized underwriting methodologies. Loan quality, or “risk-rating,” grades are assigned based upon certain factors, which include the scoring of the loans. This information is used to assist management in monitoring credit quality. Loan requests of amounts greater than an officer’s lending limits are reviewed by senior credit officers or the Loan Committee of the Board of Directors.
For commercial and commercial real estate secured loans, risk-rating grades are assigned by lending, credit administration or loan review personnel, based on an analysis of the financial and collateral strength and other credit attributes underlying each loan. Loan grades range from 1 to 9, with 1 being loans with the least credit risk. Allowance factors established by management are applied to the total balance of loans in each grade to determine the amount needed in the allowance for loan losses. The allowance factors are established based on historical loss ratios experienced by the Company for these loan types, as well as the credit quality criteria underlying each grade, adjusted for trends and expectations about losses inherent in our existing portfolios. In making these adjustments to the allowance factors, management takes into consideration factors which it believes are causing, or are likely in the future to cause, losses within our loan portfolio but that may not be fully reflected in our historical loss ratios. For portfolio balances of consumer, small balance consumer mortgage loans, such as 1-4 family mortgage loans, and certain other similar loan types, allowance factors are determined based on historical loss ratios by portfolio for the preceding eight quarters and may be adjusted by other qualitative criteria.
The loss management committee and the Board of Directors’ Loan Committee monitor loans that are past due or those that have been downgraded and placed on the Company’s internal watch list due to a decline in the collateral value or cash flow of the debtor or other adverse factors relating to the loan; the committees then adjust loan grades accordingly. This information is used to assist management in monitoring credit quality.
A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal and interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis for problemcommercial, consumer and construction loans of $500 or greater by, as applicable, the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s obtainable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. For real estate collateral, the fair market value of the collateral is based upon a recent appraisal by a qualified and licensed appraiser of the underlying collateral. When the ultimate collectability of a loan’s principal is in doubt, wholly or partially, the loan is placed on nonaccrual.
After all collection efforts have failed, collateral securing loans may be repossessed and sold or, for loans secured by real estate, foreclosure proceedings initiated. The collateral is sold at public auction for fair market value (based upon recent appraisals described in the above paragraph), with fees associated with the foreclosure being deducted from the sales price. The purchase price is applied to the outstanding loan balance. If the loan balance is greater than the sales proceeds, the deficient balance is sent to the Board of Directors’Directors Loan Committee for charge-off approval. These charge-offs reduce the allowance for loan losses. Charge-offs reflect the realization of losses in the portfolio that were recognized previously through the provision for loan losses.

The Company’s practice is to charge off estimated losses as soon as such losses are identified and reasonably quantified. Net charge-offs for the first quarternine months of 2019 were $691,$2,312, or 0.03% of average loans (annualized), compared to net charge-offs of $1,560,$3,411, or 0.08%0.06% of average loans (annualized), for the same period in 2018. The charge-offs in 2019 were fully reserved for in the Company’s allowance for loan losses and resulted in no additional provision for loan loss expense.


Allowance for Loan Losses; Provision for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses is available to absorb probable credit losses inherent in the entire loan portfolio. The appropriate level of the allowance is based on an ongoing analysis of the loan portfolio and represents an amount that management deems adequate to provide for inherent losses, including collective impairment as

recognized under the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 450, “Contingencies.” Collective impairment is calculated based on loans grouped by grade. Another component of the allowance is losses on loans assessed as impaired under ASC 310, “Receivables.” The balance of these loans and their related allowance is included in management’s estimation and analysis of the allowance for loan losses.


The allowance for loan losses is established after input from management, loan review staff and the loss management committee. Factors considered by management in evaluating the adequacy of the allowance, which occurs on a quarterly basis, include the internal risk rating of individual credits, new loan products, loan segmentation, historical and current trends in net charge-offs, trends in nonperforming loans, trends in past due loans, trends in the market values of underlying collateral securing loans and the unemployment rate and other current economic conditions in the markets in which we operate. In addition, on a regular basis, management and the Board of Directors review loan ratios. These ratios include the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans, net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans, the provision for loan losses as a percentage of average loans, nonperforming loans as a percentage of total loans and the allowance coverage on nonperforming loans. Also, management reviews past due ratios by officer, community bank and the Company as a whole.

The provision for loan losses charged to operating expense is an amount which, in the judgment of management, is necessary to maintain the allowance for loan losses at a level that is believed to be adequate to meet the inherent risks of losses in our loan portfolio. The provision for loan losses was $1,500$1,700 and $1,750$2,250 for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $4,100 and $5,810 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Although theThe Company continues to experience low levels of classified loans and nonperforming loans, as illustrated in the nonperforming loan tables later in this section, and while our other credit quality measures have also improved or otherwise remained at satisfactory levels, the growthwhich has allowed a decrease in non purchased loans has dictated that we increase the provision for loansloan losses in the current year.

order to maintain the allowance for loan losses at an acceptable level in light of the increased size of our non purchased loan portfolio.


For a purchased loan, as part of the acquisition we establish a “Day 1 Fair Value,” which equals the outstanding customer balance of a purchased loan on the acquisition date less any credit and/or yield discount applied against the purchased loan. A purchased loan will either meet or exceed the performance expectations established in determining the Day 1 Fair Values or deteriorate from such expected performance. If the purchased loan’s performance deteriorates from expectations established in determining the Day 1 Fair Values or since our most recent review of such portfolio’s performance, then the Company provides for such loan in the provision for loan losses and may ultimately partially or fully charge-off the carrying value of such purchased loan. If performance expectations are exceeded, then the Company reverses any previous provision for such loan. If the purchased loan

continues to exceed expectations subsequent to the reversal of previously-established provision, then an adjustment to accretable yield is warranted, which has a positive impact on interest income.
Certain loans purchased are accounted for under ASC 310-30, “Loans and Debt Securities Purchased with Deteriorated Credit Quality” (“ASC 310-30”), and are carried at values which, in management’s opinion, reflect the estimated future cash flows, based on the facts and circumstances surrounding each respective loan at the date of acquisition. As of March 31,September 30, 2019, the fair value of loans accounted for in accordance with ASC 310-30 was $208,846.$188,114. The Company continually monitors these loans as part of our normal credit review and monitoring procedures for changes in the estimated future cash flows; to the extent future cash flows deteriorate below initial projections, the Company may be required to reserve for these loans in the allowance for loan losses through future provision for loan losses. Of the entire allowance for loan losses as of March 31,September 30, 2019 and 2018, $2,524$2,548 and $1,817,$2,828, respectively, is allocated to loans accounted for under ASC 310-30.

Nonperforming Assets. Nonperforming assets consist of nonperforming loans and other real estate owned. Nonperforming loans are those on which the accrual of interest has stopped or loans which are contractually 90 days past due on which interest continues to accrue. Generally, the accrual of interest is discontinued when the full collection of principal or interest is in doubt or when the payment of principal or interest has been contractually 90 days past due, unless the obligation is both well secured and in the process of collection. Management, the loss management committee and our loan review staff closely monitor loans that are considered to be nonperforming.


Other real estate owned consists of properties acquired through foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure. These properties are carried at the lower of cost or fair market value based on appraised value less estimated selling costs. Losses arising at the time of foreclosure of properties are charged against the allowance for loan losses. Reductions in the carrying value subsequent to acquisition are charged to earnings and are included in “Other real estate owned” in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

The level of nonperforming loans increased $992$10,244 from December 31, 2018 to September 30, 2019 while OREO decreased $885$2,849 during the same period. As of March 31,September 30, 2019, the acquisition of Brand added nonperforming loans of $3,894.$4,655, as compared to $3,893 as of December 31, 2018. These loans were recorded at fair value as of the acquisition date, which mitigates the Company's potential loss.

The Company continues its efforts to bring problem credits to resolution. Total nonperforming loans as a percentage of total loans were 0.30%0.39% as of March 31,September 30, 2019 as compared to 0.29% as of both December 31, 2018 and 0.30% as of March 31,September 30, 2018. The Company’s coverage ratio, or its allowance for loan losses as a percentage of nonperforming loans, was 184.83%140.31% as of March 31,September 30, 2019 as compared to 188.77% as of December 31, 2018 and 202.52%185.03% as of March 31,September 30, 2018. The coverage ratio for non purchased, nonperforming loans was 363.79%220.37% as of March 31,September 30, 2019 as compared to 379.96% as of December 31, 2018 and 356.71%360.02% as of March 31,September 30, 2018. Although nonperforming loans have increased in the current year, all credit quality metrics continue to remain at or near historical lows. As shown below, total loans 30-89 days past due have decreased in the current year and the Company will continue to proactively manage both loans past due 30-89 days and nonperforming loans.


Management has evaluated the aforementioned loans and other loans classified as nonperforming and believes that all nonperforming loans have been adequately reserved for in the allowance for loan losses at March 31,September 30, 2019. Management also continually monitors past due loans for potential credit quality deterioration. Total loans 30-89 days past due were $44,141$29,271 at March 31,September 30, 2019 as compared to $36,597 at December 31, 2018 and $28,573$35,696 at March 31,September 30, 2018. The acquisition of Brand added $13,821$9,404 and $11,156 of purchased, loans 30-89 days past due at MarchSeptember 30, 2019 and December 31, 2019.2018, respectively.


Although not classified as nonperforming loans, restructured loans are another category of assets that contribute to our credit risk. Restructured loans are those for which concessions have been granted to the borrower due to a deterioration of the borrower’s financial condition and are performing in accordance with the new terms. Such concessions may include reduction in interest rates or deferral of interest or principal payments. In evaluating whether to restructure a loan, management analyzes the long-term financial condition of the borrower, including guarantor and collateral support, to determine whether the proposed concessions will increase the likelihood of repayment of principal and interest. Restructured loans that are not performing in accordance with their restructured terms that are either contractually 90 days past due or placed on nonaccrual status are reported as nonperforming loans.



As shown below, restructured loans totaled $12,409$13,429 at March 31,September 30, 2019 compared to $12,820 at December 31, 2018 and $13,823$11,931 at March 31,September 30, 2018. At March 31,September 30, 2019, loans restructured through interest rate concessions represented 28%25% of total restructured loans, while loans restructured by a concession in payment terms represented the remainder. The following table provides further details of the Company’s restructured loans in compliance with their modified terms as of the dates presented:

Interest Rate Risk


Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and rates. The majority of assets and liabilities of a financial institution are monetary in nature and therefore differ greatly from most commercial and industrial companies that have significant investments in fixed assets and inventories. Our market risk arises primarily from interest rate risk inherent in lending and deposit-taking activities. Management believes a significant impact on the Company’s financial results stems from our ability to react to changes in interest rates. A sudden and substantial change in interest rates may adversely impact our earnings because the interest rates borne by assets and liabilities do not change at the same speed, to the same extent or on the same basis.
Because of the impact of interest rate fluctuations on our profitability, the Board of Directors and management actively monitor and manage our interest rate risk exposure. We have an Asset/Liability Committee (“ALCO”) that is authorized by the Board of Directors to monitor our interest rate sensitivity and to make decisions relating to that process. The ALCO’s goal is to structure our asset/liability composition to maximize net interest income while managing interest rate risk so as to minimize the adverse impact of changes in interest rates on net interest income and capital. The ALCO uses an asset/liability model as the primary quantitative tool in measuring the amount of interest rate risk associated with changing market rates. The model is used to perform both net interest income forecast simulations for multiple year horizons and economic value of equity (“EVE”) analyses, each under various interest rate scenarios.scenarios, which could impact the results presented in the table below.

Net interest income simulations measure the short and medium-term earnings exposure from changes in market interest rates in a rigorous and explicit fashion. Our current financial position is combined with assumptions regarding future business to calculate

net interest income under various hypothetical rate scenarios. EVE measures our long-term earnings exposure from changes in market rates of interest. EVE is defined as the present value of assets minus the present value of liabilities at a point in time for a given set of market rate assumptions. An increase in EVE due to a specified rate change indicates an improvement in the long-term earnings capacity of the balance sheet assuming that the rate change remains in effect over the life of the current balance sheet.
The following table presents the projected impact of a change in interest rates on (1) static EVE and (2) earnings at risk (that is, net interest income) for the 1-12 and 13-24 month periods commencing AprilOctober 1, 2019, in each case as compared to the result under rates present in the market on March 31,September 30, 2019. The changes in interest rates assume an instantaneous and parallel shift in the yield curve and do not take into account changes in the slope of the yield curve.

The rate shock results for the net interest income simulations for the next twenty-four months produce an asset sensitive position at March 31, 2019.September 30, 2019 and are all within the parameters set by the Board of Directors. The preceding measures assume no change in the size or asset/liability compositions of the balance sheet. The measuressheet, and they do not reflect future actions the ALCO may undertake in response to such changes in interest rates. The above results of the interest rate shock analysis are within the parameters set by the Board of Directors.
The scenarios assume instantaneous movements in interest rates in increments of plus 100, 200, 300 and 400 basis points and minus 100 basis points. As interest rates are adjusted over a period of time, it is our strategy to proactively change the volume and mix of our balance sheet in order to mitigate our interest rate risk. The computation of the prospective effects of hypothetical interest rate changes requires numerous assumptions, regarding characteristicsincluding asset prepayment speeds, the impact of new businesscompetitive factors on our pricing of loans and deposits, how responsive our deposit repricing is to the change in market rates and the behaviorexpected life of existing positions.non-maturity deposits. These business assumptions are based upon our experience, business plans and published industry experience. KeySuch assumptions employedmay not necessarily reflect the manner or timing in the model includewhich cash flows, asset prepayment speeds, competitive factors, the relative price sensitivity of certain assetsyields and liabilities and the expected life of non-maturity deposits.liability costs respond to changes in market rates. Because these assumptions are inherently uncertain, actual results will differ from simulated results.
The Company utilizes derivative financial instruments, including interest rate contracts such as swaps, caps and/or floors, forward commitments, and interest rate lock commitments, as part of its ongoing efforts to mitigate its interest rate risk exposure. For more information about the Company’s derivative financial instruments, see the “Off-Balance Sheet Transactions” section below and Note 11, “Derivative Instruments,” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company in Item 1, Financial Statements.
Liquidity and Capital Resources


Liquidity management is the ability to meet the cash flow requirements of customers who may be either depositors wishing to withdraw funds or borrowers needing assurance that sufficient funds will be available to meet their credit needs.


Core deposits, which are deposits excluding time deposits and public fund deposits, are the major source of funds used by Renasantthe Bank to meet cash flow needs. Maintaining the ability to acquire these funds as needed in a variety of markets is the key to assuring Renasantthe Bank’s liquidity. Management continually monitors the Bank’s liquidity and non-core dependency ratios to ensure compliance with targets established by the Asset/Liability Management Committee.


Our investment portfolio is another alternative for meeting liquidity needs. These assets generally have readily available markets that offer conversions to cash as needed. Within the next twelve months the securities portfolio is forecasted to generate cash flow through principal payments and maturities equal to approximately 19.57%21.69% of the carrying value of the total securities portfolio. Securities within our investment portfolio are also used to secure certain deposit types and short-term borrowings. At March 31,September 30, 2019,, securities with a carrying value of $573,080$410,719 were pledged to secure public fund deposits and as collateral for short-term borrowings and derivative instruments as compared to securities with a carrying value of $637,607 similarly pledged at December 31, 2018.


Other sources available for meeting liquidity needs include federal funds purchased and short-term and long-term advances from the FHLB. Interest is charged at the prevailing market rate on federal funds purchased and FHLB advances. There were short-term borrowings from the FHLB in the amount of $80,000$196,471 at March 31,September 30, 2019 compared to $380,000$380,000 atDecember 31, 2018. Long-term funds obtained from the FHLB are used primarily to match-fund fixed rate loans in order to minimize interest rate risk and also are used to meet day to day liquidity needs, particularly when the cost of such borrowing compares favorably to the rates that we would be required to pay to attract deposits. At March 31,September 30, 2019,, the balance of our outstanding long-term advances with the FHLB was $6,492$4,055 compared to $6,690 at December 31, 2018. The total amount of the remaining credit available to us from the FHLB at March 31,September 30, 2019 was $3,548,225.$3,621,677. We also maintain lines of credit with other commercial banks totaling $150,000. These are unsecured lines of credit with the majority maturing at various times within the next twelve months. There were no amounts outstanding under these lines of credit at March 31,September 30, 2019 or December 31, 2018.


In 2016 we accessed the capital markets to generate liquidity in the form of subordinated notes. As part of the Metropolitan acquisition, the Company assumed $15,000 aggregate principal amount of 6.50% fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes due July 1, 2026. In connection with the acquisition of Brand, the Company assumed $30,000 aggregate principal amount of 8.50% subordinated notes due June 27, 2024. The notes assumed in the Brand acquisiton were redeemed during the third quarter of 2019. The carrying value of the subordinated notes, net of unamortized debt issuance costs, was $146,962$113,969 at March 31,September 30, 2019.

Our strategy in choosing funds is focused on minimizing cost in the context of our balance sheet composition and interest rate risk position. Accordingly, management targets growth of noninterest-bearing deposits. While we do not control the types of deposit instruments our clients choose, we do influence those choices with the rates and the deposit specials we offer. We constantly monitor our funds position and evaluate the effect that various funding sources have on our financial position.


Cash and cash equivalents were $562,066$409,661 at March 31,September 30, 2019 compared to $250,978$369,596 at March 31, 2018.September 30, 2018. Cash provided byused in investing activities for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 was $24,930$52,187 compared to cash used in investing activities of $365,230$472,662 for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2018. Proceeds from the sale, maturity or call of securities within our investment portfolio were $59,120$405,005 for the threenine months ended March 31, September 30, 2019 compared to $29,335$115,898 for the same period in 2018. These proceeds were reinvested into the investment portfolio or used to fund loan growth. Purchases of investment securities were $49,577$366,265 for the first threenine months of 2019 compared to $317,922$576,579 for the same period in 2018. The large increase in purchases of investment securities in 2018 is relatedwere elevated due to the releveraging of the Company'sCompany’s balance sheet.


Cash used in financing activities for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 and 2018 was $172,082,$137,145, compared to cash provided by financing activities for the same period in 2018 was $395,926.of $558,837. Deposits increased $140,692$158,477 and $437,471$538,915 for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. A portion of the increase in deposits during the first threenine months of 2018 was the Company reacquiring certain wholesale deposit funding sources which had been reduced during the fourth quarter of 2017 as part of the Company’s deleveraging strategy. Cash provided through deposit growth was primarily used to pay down short-term borrowings.


Restrictions on Bank Dividends, Loans and Advances

The Company’s liquidity and capital resources, as well as its ability to pay dividends to its shareholders, are substantially dependent on the ability of Renasantthe Bank to transfer funds to the Company in the form of dividends, loans and advances. Under Mississippi law, a Mississippi bank may not pay dividends unless its earned surplus is in excess of three times capital stock. A Mississippi bank with earned surplus in excess of three times capital stock may pay a dividend, subject to the approval of the Mississippi Department of Banking and Consumer Finance (the “DBCF”). In addition, the FDIC also has the authority to prohibit the Bank from engaging in business practices that the FDIC considers to be unsafe or unsound, which, depending on the financial condition of the bank, could include the payment of dividends. Accordingly, the approval of the DBCF is required prior to Renasantthe Bank paying dividends to the Company, and under certain circumstances the approval of the FDIC may be required.


Federal Reserve regulations also limit the amount Renasantthe Bank may loan to the Company unless such loans are collateralized by specific obligations. At March 31,September 30, 2019,, the maximum amount available for transfer from Renasantthe Bank to the Company in the form of loans was $137,053.$138,197. The Company maintains a line of credit collateralized by cash with Renasantthe Bank totaling $3,052.$3,061. There were no amounts outstanding under this line of credit at March 31, 2019.September 30, 2019.


These restrictions did not have any impact on the Company’s ability to meet its cash obligations in the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019, nor does management expect such restrictions to materially impact the Company’s ability to meet its currently-anticipated cash obligations.


Off-Balance Sheet Transactions
The Company enters into loan commitments and standby letters of credit in the normal course of its business. Loan commitments are made to accommodate the financial needs of the Company’s customers. Standby letters of credit commit the Company to make payments on behalf of customers when certain specified future events occur. Both arrangements have credit risk essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers and are subject to the Company’s normal credit policies. Collateral (e.g., securities, receivables, inventory, equipment, etc.) is obtained based on management’s credit assessment of the customer.
Loan commitments and standby letters of credit do not necessarily represent future cash requirements of the Company in that while the borrower has the ability to draw upon these commitments at any time, these commitments often expire without being drawn upon. The Company’s unfunded loan commitments and standby letters of credit outstanding were as follows as of the dates presented:
March 31, 2019 December 31, 2018September 30, 2019 December 31, 2018

 $2,068,749
Standby letters of credit88,660
 104,664
92,703
 104,664


The Company closely monitors the amount of remaining future commitments to borrowers in light of prevailing economic conditions and adjusts these commitments as necessary. The Company will continue this process as new commitments are entered into or existing commitments are renewed.


The Company utilizes derivative financial instruments, including interest rate contracts such as swaps, caps and/or floors, as part of its ongoing efforts to mitigate its interest rate risk exposure and to facilitate the needs of its customers. The Company enters into derivative instruments that are not designated as hedging instruments to help its commercial customers manage their exposure to interest rate fluctuations. To mitigate the interest rate risk associated with these customer contracts, the Company enters into an offsetting derivative contract position with other financial institutions. The Company manages its credit risk, or potential risk of default by its commercial customers, through credit limit approval and monitoring procedures. At March 31,September 30, 2019, the Company had notional amounts of $204,403$204,590 on interest rate contracts with corporate customers and $204,403$204,590 in offsetting interest rate contracts with other financial institutions to mitigate the Company’s rate exposure on its corporate customers’ contracts and certain fixed rate loans.
Additionally, the Company enters into interest rate lock commitments with its customers to mitigate the interest rate risk associated with the commitments to fund fixed-rate and adjustable rate residential mortgage loans and also enters into forward commitments to sell residential mortgage loans to secondary market investors.
The Company has also entered into forward interest rate swap contracts on FHLB borrowings, as well as interest rate swap agreements on junior subordinated debentures that are all accounted for as cash flow hedges. Under each of these contracts, the Company will pay a fixed rate of interest and will receive a variable rate of interest based on the three-month LIBOR plus a predetermined spread.

For more information about the Company’s off-balance sheet transactions, see Note 11, “Derivative Instruments,” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company in Item 1, Financial Statements.
Shareholders’ Equity and Regulatory Matters


Total shareholders’ equity of the Company was $2,088,8772,119,659 at March 31,September 30, 2019 compared to $2,043,913 at December 31, 2018. Book value per share was $35.63$36.89 and $34.91 at March 31,September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. The growth in shareholders’ equity was attributable to the acquisition of Brand as well as earnings retention offset byand changes in accumulated other comprehensive lossincome offset by dividends declared and dividends declared.common stock repurchased through the stock repurchase program.


The Company maintains a shelf registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The shelf registration statement, which was effective upon filing, allows the Company to raise capital from time to time through the sale of common stock, preferred stock, depositary shares, debt securities, rights, warrants and units, or a combination thereof, subject to market conditions. Specific terms and prices will be determined at the time of any offering under a separate prospectus supplement that the Company will file with the SEC at the time of the specific offering. The proceeds of the sale of securities, if and when offered, will be used for general corporate purposes or as otherwise described in the prospectus supplement applicable to the offering and could include the expansion of the Company’s banking, insurance and wealth management operations as well as other business opportunities.


The Company has junior subordinated debentures with a carrying value of $109,781$110,070 at March 31,September 30, 2019,, of which $106,190$106,479 are included in the Company’s Tier 1 capital. Federal Reserve guidelines limit the amount of securities that, similar to our junior subordinated debentures, are includable in Tier 1 capital, but these guidelines did not impact the amount of debentures we include in Tier 1 capital at March 31,September 30, 2019. Although our existing junior subordinated debentures are currently unaffected by these Federal Reserve guidelines, on account of changes enacted as part of the Dodd-Frank Act, any new trust preferred securities are not includable in Tier 1 capital. Further, if as a result of an acquisition we exceed $15,000,000 in assets, or if we make any acquisition after we have exceeded $15,000,000 in assets, we will lose Tier 1 treatment of our junior subordinated debentures.


The Company has subordinated notes with a carrying value of $146,962$113,969 at March 31,September 30, 2019,, of which $143,493$113,576 are included in the Company’s Tier 2 capital.


The Federal Reserve, the FDIC and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency have issued guidelines governing the levels of capital that bank holding companies and banks must maintain. Those guidelines specify capital tiers, which include the following classifications:
