Home BancShares, Inc. (the “Company” or “HBI”) is a bank holding company headquartered in Conway, Arkansas. The Company is primarily engaged in providing a full range of banking services to individual and corporate customers through its wholly-owned community bank subsidiary – Centennial Bank (sometimes referred to as “Centennial” or the “Bank”). The Bank has branch locations in Arkansas, Florida and South Alabama and ~~has~~ a loan production office in New York City. The Company is subject to competition from other financial institutions. The Company also is subject to the regulation of certain federal and state agencies and undergoes periodic examinations by those regulatory authorities.

Operating segments are components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Bank is the only significant subsidiary upon which management makes decisions regarding how to allocate resources and assess performance. Each of the branches of the Bank provide a group of similar community banking services, including such products and services as commercial, real estate and consumer loans, time deposits, and checking and savings accounts. The individual bank branches have similar operating and economic characteristics. While the chief decision maker monitors the revenue streams of the various products, services and branch locations, operations are managed and financial performance is evaluated on a Company-wide basis. Accordingly, all of the community banking services and branch locations are considered by management to be aggregated into one reportable operating segment, community banking.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of investment securities, the valuation of foreclosed assets, the valuations of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations, covered loans and the related indemnification asset. In connection with the determination of the allowance for loan losses and the valuation of foreclosed assets, management obtains independent appraisals for significant properties.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of HBI and its subsidiaries. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Various items within the accompanying consolidated financial statements for previous years have been reclassified to provide more comparative information. These reclassifications had no effect on net earnings or stockholders’ equity.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and 2014 have been prepared in condensed format, and therefore do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements.

The information furnished in these interim statements reflects all adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for each respective period presented. Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations in the interim statements are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other quarter or for the full year. The interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2014 Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Basic earnings per share is computed based on the ~~weighted average~~weighted-average number of shares outstanding during each year. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the ~~weighted average~~weighted-average shares and all potential dilutive shares outstanding during the period. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) for the following periods:

On April 1, 2015, the Company’s wholly-owned bank subsidiary, Centennial, entered into an agreement with AM PR LLC, an affiliate of J.C. Flowers & Co. (collectively, the “Seller”) to purchase a pool of national commercial real estate loans totaling approximately $289.1 million for a purchase price of 99% of the total principal value of the acquired loans. The purchase of the loans was completed on April 1, 2015. The acquired loans were originated by the former Doral Bank within its Doral Property Finance portfolio (“DPF Portfolio”) and were transferred to the Seller by Banco Popular of Puerto Rico (“Popular”) upon its acquisition of the assets and liabilities of Doral Bank from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”), as receiver for the failed Doral Bank. This pool of loans is now housed in a division of Centennial known as the Centennial Commercial Finance Group (“Centennial CFG”). The Centennial CFG is responsible for servicing the acquired loan pool and originating new loan production.

In connection with this acquisition of loans, the Company opened a loan production office on April 23, 2015 in New York City. Through the loan production office, Centennial CFG plans to build out a national lending platform focusing on commercial real estate plus commercial and industrial loans.

On February 27, 2015, the Company’s banking subsidiary, Centennial ~~Bank~~ acquired all the deposits and substantially all the assets of Doral Bank’s Florida Panhandle operations (“Doral Florida”) through an alliance agreement with ~~Banco~~ Popular ~~of Puerto Rico (“Popular”)~~ who was the successful lead bidder with the ~~Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”)~~FDIC on the failed Doral Bank of San Juan, Puerto Rico. The acquisition provided the Company with loans of approximately $37.9 million net of loan discounts, deposits of approximately $466.3 million, plus a $428.2 million cash settlement to balance the transaction. There is no loss-share with the FDIC in the acquired assets.

Prior to the acquisition, Doral Florida operated five branch locations in Panama City, Panama City Beach and Pensacola, Florida plus a loan production office in Tallahassee, Florida. At the time of acquisition, Centennial operated 29 branch locations in the Florida Panhandle. As a result, the Company ~~will close~~closed all five branch locations during the July 2015 systems conversion and ~~return~~returned the facilities back to the FDIC.

The Company has determined that the acquisition of the net assets of Doral Florida constitutes a business combination as defined by the FASB ASC Topic 805,Business Combinations. Accordingly, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are presented at their fair values as required. Fair values were determined based on the requirements of FASB ASC Topic 820,Fair Value Measurements. In many cases, the determination of these fair values required management to make estimates about discount rates, future expected cash flows, market conditions and other future events that are highly subjective in nature and subject to change. The following schedule is a breakdown of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date:

The following is a description of the methods used to determine the fair values of significant assets and liabilities presented above:

Cash and due from banks – The carrying amount of these assets is a reasonable estimate of fair value based on the short-term nature of these assets. The $428.2 million adjustment is the cash settlement received from Popular for the net equity received, assets discount bid and other customary closing adjustments.

Loans – Fair values for loans were based on a discounted cash flow methodology that considered factors including the type of loan and related collateral, classification status, fixed or variable interest rate, term of loan and whether or not the loan was amortizing, and current discount rates. The discount rates used for loans are based on current market rates for new originations of comparable loans and include adjustments for liquidity concerns.

The Company evaluated $36.9 million of the loans purchased in conjunction with the acquisition in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 310-20,Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs, and were recorded with a $3.4 million discount. As a result, the fair value discount on these loans is being accreted into interest income over the ~~weighted average~~weighted-average life of the loans using a constant yield method. The remaining approximately $5.3 million of loans evaluated were considered purchased credit impaired loans with in the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 310-30,Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality, and were recorded with a $950,000 discount. These purchased credit impaired loans will recognize interest income through accretion of the difference between the carrying amount of the loans and the expected cash flows.

Core deposit intangible – This intangible asset represents the value of the relationships that Doral Florida had with its deposit customers. The fair value of this intangible asset was estimated based on a discounted cash flow methodology that gave appropriate consideration to expected customer attrition rates, cost of the deposit base, and the net maintenance cost attributable to customer deposits. The Company recorded $1.4 million of core deposit intangible.

Deposits – The fair values used for the demand and savings deposits that comprise the transaction accounts acquired, by definition, equal the amount payable on demand at the acquisition date. The Bank was able to reset deposit rates. However, the Bank did not lower the deposit rates as low as the market rates currently offered. As a result, a $1.3 million fair value adjustment was applied for time deposits because the estimated ~~weighted average~~weighted-average interest rate of Doral Florida’s certificates of deposits were still estimated to be above the current market rates after the rate reset.

The purchase price allocation and certain fair value measurements remain preliminary due to the timing of the acquisition. The Company will continue to review the estimated fair values of loans, deposits and intangible assets, and to evaluate the assumed tax positions and contingencies.

The Company’s operating results for the period ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, include the operating results of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities subsequent to the acquisition date. Due to the fair value adjustments recorded and the fact Doral Florida total assets acquired excluding the cash settlement received is less than 1% of total assets as of ~~March 31, 2015,~~acquisition date, historical results are not believed to be material to the Company’s results, and thus no pro-forma information is presented.

On October 23, 2014, the Company completed its acquisition of Broward Financial Holdings, Inc. (“Broward”), parent company of Broward Bank of Commerce, pursuant to a previously announced definitive agreement and plan of merger whereby a wholly-owned acquisition subsidiary (“Acquisition Sub II”) of HBI merged with and into Broward, resulting in Broward becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of HBI. Immediately thereafter, Broward Bank of Commerce was merged into Centennial. Under the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated July 30, 2014 by and among HBI, Centennial, Broward, Broward Bank of Commerce and Acquisition Sub II, HBI issued 1,020,824 shares of its common stock valued at approximately $30.2 million as of October 23, 2014, plus $3.3 million in cash in exchange for all outstanding shares of Broward common stock. HBI has also agreed to pay the Broward shareholders, at an undetermined date, up to approximately $751,000 in additional consideration. The amount and timing of the additional payment, if any, will depend on future payments received or losses incurred by Centennial from certain current Broward Bank of Commerce loans. At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had recorded a fair value of zero for the potential additional consideration.

Prior to the acquisition, Broward Bank of Commerce operated two banking locations in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Including the effects of the purchase accounting adjustments, Broward had approximately $184.4 million in total assets, $121.1 million in total loans after $3.0 million of loan discounts, and $134.2 million in deposits.

As of the acquisition date, Broward’s common equity totaled $20.4 million and the Company paid a purchase price to the Broward shareholders of approximately $33.6 million for the Broward acquisition. As a result, the Company paid a multiple of 1.62 of Broward’s book value per share and tangible book value per share.

See Note 2 “Business Combinations” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 for an additional discussion regarding the acquisition of Broward.

On July 17, 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Florida Traditions Bank (“Traditions”) and merged Traditions into Centennial. Under the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated April 25, 2014, by and among the Company, Centennial, and Traditions, the shareholders of Traditions received approximately $39.5 million of the Company’s common stock valued at the time of closing, in exchange for all outstanding shares of Traditions common stock.

Prior to the acquisition, Traditions operated eight banking locations in Central Florida, including its main office in Dade City, Florida. Including the effects of the purchase accounting adjustments, Traditions had $310.5 million in total assets, $241.6 million in loans after $8.5 million of loan discounts, and $267.3 million in deposits.

The transaction was accretive to the Company’s book value per common share and tangible book value per common share by $0.31 per share and $0.21 per share, respectively.

Assets, principally investment securities, having a carrying value of approximately ~~$1.24~~$1.19 billion and $1.23 billion at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, were pledged to secure public deposits and for other purposes required or permitted by law. Also, investment securities pledged as collateral for repurchase agreements totaled approximately ~~$178.6~~$150.7 million and $176.5 million at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of securities classified as available-for-sale and held-to-maturity at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, by contractual maturity, are shown below.

For purposes of the maturity tables, mortgage-backed securities, which are not due at a single maturity date, have been allocated over maturity groupings based on anticipated maturities. The mortgage-backed securities may mature earlier than their weighted-average contractual maturities because of principal prepayments.

During the three-month period ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, no available-for-sale securities were sold. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2015, approximately $931,000, in available-for-sale securities were sold. The gross realized ~~gains~~gain on the ~~sales~~sale for the ~~three month~~six-month period ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 totaled approximately $4,000. The income tax expense/benefit to net security gains and losses was 39.225% of the gross amounts.

During the ~~three-month period~~three and six-month periods ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014, no available-for-sale securities were sold.

The Company evaluates all securities quarterly to determine if any unrealized losses are deemed to be other than temporary. In completing these evaluations the Company follows the requirements of FASB ASC 320,Investments - Debt and Equity Securities. Certain investment securities are valued less than their historical cost. These declines are primarily the result of the rate for these investments yielding less than current market rates. Based on evaluation of available evidence, management believes the declines in fair value for these securities are temporary. The Company does not intend to sell or believe it will be required to sell these investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be maturity. Should the impairment of any of these securities become other than temporary, the cost basis of the investment will be reduced and the resulting loss recognized in net income in the period the other-than-temporary impairment is identified.

During the ~~three-month~~six-month period ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, no securities were deemed to have other-than-temporary impairment besides securities for which impairment was taken in prior periods.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, the Company had investment securities with a fair value of approximately ~~$65.7 million~~$729,000 in unrealized losses, which have been in continuous loss positions for more than twelve months. Excluding impairment write downs taken in prior periods, the Company’s assessments indicated that the cause of the market depreciation was primarily the change in interest rates and not the issuer’s financial condition, or downgrades by rating agencies. In addition, approximately ~~78.7%~~78.6% of the Company’s investment portfolio matures in five years or less. As a result, the Company has the ability and intent to hold such securities until maturity.

The following shows gross unrealized losses and estimated fair value of investment securities classified as available-for-sale and held-to-maturity with unrealized losses that are not deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired, aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual investment securities have been in a continuous loss position as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014:

During the ~~three-month~~three and six-month periods ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and 2014, no SBA loans were sold.

Mortgage loans held for sale of approximately ~~$31.6~~$37.3 million and $33.1 million at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, are included in residential 1-4 family loans. Mortgage loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value, determined using an aggregate basis. Gains and losses resulting from sales of mortgage loans are recognized when the respective loans are sold to investors. Gains and losses are determined by the difference between the selling price and the carrying amount of the loans sold, net of discounts collected or paid. The Company obtains forward commitments to sell mortgage loans to reduce market risk on mortgage loans in the process of origination and mortgage loans held for sale. The forward commitments acquired by the Company for mortgage loans in process of origination are not mandatory forward commitments. These commitments are structured on a best efforts basis; therefore the Company is not required to substitute another loan or to buy back the commitment if the original loan does not fund. Typically, the Company delivers the mortgage loans within a few days after the loans are funded. These commitments are derivative instruments and their fair values at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 were not material.

The Company evaluated loans purchased in conjunction with the acquisitions under purchase and assumption agreements with the FDIC for impairment in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 310-30. Purchased covered loans are considered impaired if there is evidence of credit deterioration since origination and if it is probable that not all contractually required payments will be collected.

The following table reflects the carrying value of all purchased FDIC covered impaired loans as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 for the Company:

The acquired loans were grouped into pools based on common risk characteristics and were recorded at their estimated fair values, which incorporated estimated credit losses at the acquisition dates. These loan pools are systematically reviewed by the Company to determine material changes in cash flow estimates from those identified at the time of the acquisition. Techniques used in determining risk of loss are similar to the Centennial ~~Bank~~ non-covered loan portfolio, with most focus being placed on those loan pools which include the larger loan relationships and those loan pools which exhibit higher risk characteristics. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, ~~$14.5~~$9.6 million and $22.5 million, respectively, were accruing loans past due 90 days or more.

The following table presents a summary of changes in the allowance for loan losses for the non-covered and covered loan portfolios for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015:

Credit Quality Indicators. As part of the on-going monitoring of the credit quality of the Company’s loan portfolio, management tracks certain credit quality indicators including trends related to (i) the risk rating of loans, (ii) the level of classified loans, (iii) net charge-offs, (iv) non-performing loans and (v) the general economic conditions in Florida, Arkansas and Alabama.

The Company utilizes a risk rating matrix to assign a risk rating to each of its loans. Loans are rated on a scale from 1 to 8. Descriptions of the general characteristics of the 8 risk ratings are as follows:

The Company’s classified loans include loans in risk ratings 6, 7 and 8. The following is a presentation of classified non-covered loans (excluding loans accounted for under ASC Topic 310-30) by class as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014:

Loans may be classified, but not considered impaired, due to one of the following reasons: (1) The Company has established minimum dollar amount thresholds for loan impairment testing. All loans over $2.0 million that are rated 5 – 8 are individually assessed for impairment on a quarterly basis. Loans rated 5 – 8 that fall under the threshold amount are not individually tested for impairment and therefore are not included in impaired loans; (2) of the loans that are above the threshold amount and tested for impairment, after testing, some are considered to not be impaired and are not included in impaired loans.

During the 2015 quarterly impairment testing on the estimated cash flows of the covered loans, the Company established that certain pools evaluated had experienced material projected credit deterioration. As a result, the Company recorded a ~~$918,000~~$998,000 net provision for loan losses to the allowance for loan losses related to the purchased credit impaired loans during the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 on a net basis. The Company also recorded a negative provision for loan losses forecasted outside of loss share of ~~$295,000~~$294,000 and a provision for loan loss of ~~$2.1~~$2.5 million before benefit attributable to FDIC loss share agreements. Since these loans are covered by loss share with the FDIC, the Company was able to increase the related indemnification asset by ~~$844,000.~~$1.2 million.

The following tables present the balance in the allowance for loan losses for the covered loan portfolio for the ~~three-month period~~three and six-month periods ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, and the allowance for loan losses and recorded investment in loans covered by FDIC loss share based on portfolio segment by impairment method as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015.

The non-covered purchased credit impaired loans acquired during the 2015 Doral Florida acquisition were deemed immaterial and as a result were not included in the table above.

The loan pools were evaluated by the Company and are currently forecasted to have a slower run-off than originally expected. As a result, the Company has reforecast the total accretable yield expectations for those loan pools by ~~$6.2~~$7.7 million. This updated forecast does not change the expected ~~weighted average~~weighted-average yields on the loan pools.

On January 1, 2015, Centennial Insurance Agency sold the insurance book of business of the former Town and Country Insurance to Stephens Insurance, LLC of Little Rock. This disposal was completed at the Company’s book value with no gain or loss. The net profit on this book of business was immaterial.

Core deposit and other intangible amortization expense was approximately $1.1 million for both the three-months ended June 30, 2015 and ~~$1.2~~2014. Core deposit and other intangible amortization expense was approximately $2.2 million and $2.3 million for the ~~three-months~~six-months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Including all of the mergers completed as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, HBI’s estimated amortization expense of core deposits and other intangibles for each of the years 2015 through 2019 is approximately: 2015 - $4.0 million; 2016 - $2.8 million; 2017 - $2.7 million; 2018 - $2.6 million; 2019 - $2.5 million.

The carrying amount of the Company’s goodwill was $322.7 million and $325.4 million at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. Goodwill is tested annually for impairment during the fourth quarter. If the implied fair value of goodwill is lower than its carrying amount, goodwill impairment is indicated and goodwill is written down to its implied fair value. Subsequent increases in goodwill value are not recognized in the consolidated financial statements.

Other assets consists primarily of FDIC claims receivable, equity securities without a readily determinable fair value and other miscellaneous assets. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 other assets were ~~$99.1~~$103.9 million and $93.7 million, respectively.

An indemnification asset was created when the Company acquired FDIC covered loans. The indemnification asset represents the carrying amount of the right to receive payments from the FDIC for losses incurred on specified assets acquired from failed insured depository institutions or otherwise purchased from the FDIC that are covered by loss sharing agreements with the FDIC. When the Company experiences a loss on the covered loans and subsequently requests reimbursement of the loss from the FDIC, the indemnification asset is reduced by the FDIC reimbursable amount. A corresponding claim receivable is consequently recorded in other assets until the cash is received from the FDIC. The FDIC claims receivable was ~~$12.8~~$9.0 million and $14.0 million at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

The Company has equity securities without readily determinable fair values. These equity securities are outside the scope of ASC Topic 320,Investments-Debt and Equity Securities. They include items such as stock holdings in Federal Home Loan Bank, Federal Reserve Bank, Bankers’ Bank and other miscellaneous holdings. The equity securities without a readily determinable fair value were ~~$70.2~~$79.9 million and $66.7 million at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, and are accounted for at cost.

The aggregate amount of time deposits with a minimum denomination of $250,000 was ~~$314.3~~$357.2 million and $272.5 million at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. The aggregate amount of time deposits with a minimum denomination of $100,000 was ~~$851.7~~$776.7 million and $705.4 million at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. Interest expense applicable to certificates in excess of $100,000 totaled $1.3 million and ~~$1.2~~$1.1 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Interest expense applicable to certificates in excess of $100,000 totaled $2.6 million and $2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, brokered deposits were ~~$31.8~~$82.0 million and $33.6 million, respectively.

Deposits totaling approximately ~~$1.01 billion~~$848.9 million and $1.02 billion at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, were public funds obtained primarily from state and political subdivisions in the United States.

At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, securities sold under agreements to repurchase totaled ~~$178.6~~$150.7 million and $176.5 million, respectively. For the three-month periods ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and 2014, securities sold under agreements to repurchase daily ~~weighted average~~weighted-average totaled ~~$179.6~~$168.3 million and ~~$149.4~~$136.4 million, respectively. For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, securities sold under agreements to repurchase daily weighted-average totaled $173.9 million and $142.9 million, respectively.

The Company’s Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) borrowed funds were ~~$277.5~~$866.9 million and $698.0 million at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. ~~This $420.5 million pay down of FHLB borrowed funds is primarily related to the use of the $428.2 million cash settlement received during the Doral Florida acquisition.~~ At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, ~~$92.5~~$25.0 million and ~~$185.0~~$841.9 million of the outstanding balance were issued as short-term and long-term advances, respectively. At December 31, 2014, $515.0 million and $183.0 million of the outstanding balances were short-term and long-term advances, respectively. The FHLB advances mature from the current year to 2025 with fixed interest rates ranging from ~~0.20%~~0.13% to 5.96% and are secured by loans and investments securities. Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities because FHLB may have the right to call or HBI may have the right to prepay certain obligations.

Additionally, the Company had $144.0 million at both ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 in letters of credit under a FHLB blanket borrowing line of credit, which are used to collateralize public deposits at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

Subordinated debentures at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 consisted of guaranteed payments on trust preferred securities with the following components:

The Company holds $60.8 million of trust preferred securities which are currently callable without penalty based on the terms of the specific agreements. The trust preferred securities are tax-advantaged issues that qualify for Tier 1 capital treatment subject to certain limitations. Distributions on these securities are included in interest expense. Each of the trusts is a statutory business trust organized for the sole purpose of issuing trust securities and investing the proceeds in the Company’s subordinated debentures, the sole asset of each trust. The trust preferred securities of each trust represent preferred beneficial interests in the assets of the respective trusts and are subject to mandatory redemption upon payment of the subordinated debentures held by the trust. The Company wholly owns the common securities of each trust. Each trust’s ability to pay amounts due on the trust preferred securities is solely dependent upon the Company making payment on the related subordinated debentures. The Company’s obligations under the subordinated securities and other relevant trust agreements, in aggregate, constitute a full and unconditional guarantee by the Company of each respective trust’s obligations under the trust securities issued by each respective trust.

The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and the states of Arkansas, Alabama and ~~Florida.~~Florida and will be filing one with the state of New York during 2016. With a few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal and state tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2010. During ~~2014,~~2015, the State of ~~Florida commenced an~~Florida’s examination of the Company’s Florida State income tax ~~return~~returns for the 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 tax ~~years.

The Company has a stock option and performance incentive plan known as the Amended and Restated 2006 Stock Option and Performance Incentive Plan (“the Plan”). The purpose of the Plan is to attract and retain highly qualified officers, directors, key employees, and other persons, and to motivate those persons to improve the Company’s business results. The Plan provides for the granting of incentive nonqualified options to purchase stock or for the issuance of restricted shares up to 4,644,000 shares of common stock in the Company. At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, the Company has approximately ~~1,354,000~~1,300,000 shares of common stock remaining available for grants or issuance under the plan and approximately ~~2,335,000~~2,174,000 shares reserved for issuance of common stock.

The intrinsic value of the stock options outstanding and stock options vested at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 was ~~$20.2~~$17.2 million and ~~$17.5~~$13.9 million, respectively. Total unrecognized compensation cost, net of income tax benefit, related to non-vested awards, which are expected to be recognized over the vesting periods, was approximately ~~$1.9~~$2.3 million as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015. For the first ~~three~~six months of 2015, the Company has expensed ~~$108,000~~$233,000 for the non-vested awards.

The table below summarizes the transactions under the Company’s stock option plans at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 and changes during the ~~three-month~~six-month period and year then ended:

Stock-based compensation expense for stock-based compensation awards granted is based on the grant-date fair value. For stock option awards, the fair value is estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. This model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, changes to which can materially affect the fair value estimate. Additionally, there may be other factors that would otherwise have a significant effect on the value of employee stock options granted but are not considered by the model. Accordingly, while management believes that the Black-Scholes option-pricing model provides a reasonable estimate of fair value, the model does not necessarily provide the best single measure of fair value for the Company’s employee stock options. The weighted-average fair value of options granted during the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 was ~~$8.03~~$8.53 per share. The weighted-average fair value of options granted during the year ended December 31, 2014 was $10.73 per share. The fair value of each option granted is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model based on the weighted-average assumptions for expected dividend yield, expected stock price volatility, risk-free interest rate, and expected life of options granted.

The remaining 3,000 shares are subject to performance based vesting (“2012 Performance Shares”). The 2012 Performance Shares are set up to “cliff” vest on the third annual anniversary of the date that the performance goal is met. As of September 30, 2013, the performance goal was met when the Company averaged $0.3125 diluted earnings per share for the past four consecutive quarters or total diluted earnings per share of $1.25 during the same period. In accordance with the vesting terms of the 2012 Performance Shares agreements, the issued shares are due to fully vest on September 30, 2016.

The restricted stock issued will “cliff” vest on January 16, 2018.

On May 28, 2015, the Company granted a total of 37,000 shares of the Company’s restricted common stock to a group of employees of the Company’s bank subsidiary. Of these issued shares, 18,500 shares will vest equally each year over three years beginning on the third anniversary of the grant. The remaining 18,500 shares are subject to performance based vesting (“2015 Performance Shares”). The 2015 Performance Shares are set up to vest over three years beginning on the third anniversary of the date that the performance goal is met. The performance goal will be met when the Company averaged $0.625 diluted earnings per share for four consecutive quarters or total diluted earnings per share of $2.50 during the same period.

During the first ~~three~~six months of 2015, the Company utilized a portion of its previously approved stock repurchase program. This program authorized the repurchase of 2,376,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. ~~For the~~During first quarter of 2015, the Company repurchased a total of 67,332 shares with a ~~weighted average~~weighted-average stock price of $29.89 per share. No shares were repurchased during the second quarter of 2015. The 2015 earnings were used to fund ~~these~~the repurchases. Shares repurchased to date under the program total 1,578,228 shares.

The Company’s primary market areas are in Arkansas, Florida, South Alabama and ~~South Alabama.~~New York City. The Company primarily grants loans to customers located within these geographical areas unless the borrower has an established relationship with the Company.

The diversity of the Company’s economic base tends to provide a stable lending environment. Although the Company has a loan portfolio that is diversified in both industry and geographic area, a substantial portion of its debtors’ ability to honor their contracts is dependent upon real estate values, tourism demand and the economic conditions prevailing in its market areas.

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require disclosure of certain significant estimates and current vulnerabilities due to certain concentrations. Estimates related to the allowance for loan losses and certain concentrations of credit risk are reflected in Note 6, while deposit concentrations are reflected in Note 9.

Although the Company has a diversified loan portfolio, at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, non-covered commercial real estate loans represented ~~58.0%~~61.0% and 57.3% of non-covered loans, respectively, and ~~275.1%~~316.1% and 271.9% of total stockholders’ equity, respectively. Non-covered residential real estate loans represented ~~25.4%~~24.0% and 25.2% of non-covered loans and ~~120.4%~~124.3% and 119.6% of total stockholders’ equity at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

Approximately ~~87.4%~~80.9% of the Company’s loans as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, are to ~~the~~ borrowers in Alabama, Arkansas and Florida, the three states in which the Company has its ~~primary market areas.~~branch locations. Additionally, the Company has ~~83.8%~~85.3% of its loans as real estate loans primarily in Arkansas, Florida and South Alabama.

Although general economic conditions in our market areas have improved, both nationally and locally, over the past three years and ~~show~~have shown signs of continued improvement, financial institutions still face circumstances and challenges which, in some cases, have resulted and could potentially result, in large declines in the fair values of investments and other assets, constraints on liquidity and significant credit quality problems, including severe volatility in the valuation of real estate and other collateral supporting loans. The financial statements have been prepared using values and information currently available to the Company.

Given the volatility of economy in the latter years of the last decade, the values of assets and liabilities recorded in the financial statements could change rapidly, resulting in material future adjustments in asset values, the allowance for loan losses and capital that could negatively impact the Company’s ability to meet regulatory capital requirements and maintain sufficient liquidity.

In the ordinary course of business, the Company makes various commitments and incurs certain contingent liabilities to fulfill the financing needs of their customers. These commitments and contingent liabilities include lines of credit and commitments to extend credit and issue standby letters of credit. The Company applies the same credit policies and standards as they do in the lending process when making these commitments. The collateral obtained is based on the assessed creditworthiness of the borrower.

At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, commitments to extend credit of ~~$926.9 million~~$1.03 billion and $851.8 million, respectively, were outstanding. A percentage of these balances are participated out to other banks; therefore, the Company can call on the participating banks to fund future draws. Since some of these commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amount does not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

Outstanding standby letters of credit are contingent commitments issued by the Company, generally to guarantee the performance of a customer in third-party borrowing arrangements. The term of the guarantee is dependent upon the creditworthiness of the borrower, some of which are long-term. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, commercial real estate and residential real estate. Management uses the same credit policies in granting lines of credit as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments. The maximum amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these guarantees at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, is ~~$22.9~~$21.5 million and $23.2 million, respectively.

The Company and/or its bank subsidiary have various unrelated legal proceedings, most of which involve loan foreclosure activity pending, which, in the aggregate, are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations or cash flows of the Company and its subsidiary.

The Bank is subject to a legal limitation on dividends that can be paid to the parent company without prior approval of the applicable regulatory agencies. Arkansas bank regulators have specified that the maximum dividend limit state banks may pay to the parent company without prior approval is 75% of the current year earnings plus 75% of the retained net earnings of the preceding year. Since the Bank is also under supervision of the Federal Reserve, it is further limited if the total of all dividends declared in any calendar year by the Bank exceeds the Bank’s net profits to date for that year combined with its retained net profits for the preceding two years. During the first ~~three~~six months of 2015, the Company requested approximately ~~$22.7~~$48.6 million in regular dividends from its banking subsidiary. This dividend is equal to approximately ~~70.7%~~72.6% of the Company’s banking subsidiary’s first ~~three~~six months earnings.

In July 2013, the Federal Reserve Board and the other federal bank regulatory agencies issued a final rule to revise their risk-based and leverage capital requirements and their method for calculating risk-weighted assets to make them consistent with the agreements that were reached by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision in “Basel III: A Global Regulatory Framework for More Resilient Banks and Banking Systems” and certain provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act (“Basel III”). Basel III applies to all depository institutions, bank holding companies with total consolidated assets of $500 million or more, and savings and loan holding companies. Among other things, the rule establishes a new minimum “common equity Tier 1 capital” requirement of 4.5% of risk-weighted assets, raises the minimum “Tier 1 risk-based capital” requirement to 6% of risk-weighted assets and assigns higher risk weightings (150%) to exposures that are more than 90 days past due or are on non-accrual status and certain commercial real estate facilities that finance the acquisition, development or construction of real property.

Basel III permanently grandfathers trust preferred securities and other non-qualifying capital instruments that were issued and outstanding as of May 19, 2010 in the Tier 1 capital of bank holding companies with total consolidated assets of less than $15 billion as of December 31, 2009. The rule phases out of Tier 1 capital these non-qualifying capital instruments issued before May 19, 2010 by all other bank holding companies. Basel III also limits a banking organization’s capital distributions and certain discretionary bonus payments if the banking organization does not hold a “capital conservation buffer” of 2.5% of “common equity tier 1 capital” to risk-weighted assets, which is in addition to the amount necessary to meet its minimum risk-based capital requirements. Basel III became effective for the Company and its bank subsidiary on January 1, 2015. The capital conservation buffer requirement will be phased in beginning January 1, 2016. The phase-in period ends on January 1, 2019 when the full capital conservation buffer requirement becomes effective.

Basel III amended the prompt corrective action rules to incorporate a “common equity Tier 1 capital” requirement and to raise the capital requirements for certain capital categories. In order to be adequately capitalized for purposes of the prompt corrective action rules, a banking organization will be required to have at least a 4.5% “common equity Tier 1 risk-based capital” ratio, a 4% “Tier 1 leverage capital” ratio, a 6% “Tier 1 risk-based capital” ratio and an 8% “total risk-based capital” ratio.

The Federal Reserve Board’s risk-based capital guidelines include the definitions for (1) a well-capitalized institution, (2) an adequately-capitalized institution, and (3) an undercapitalized institution. Under Basel III, the criteria for a well-capitalized institution are now: a 6.5% “common equity Tier 1 risk-based capital” ratio, a 5% “Tier 1 leverage capital” ratio, an 8% “Tier 1 risk-based capital” ratio, and a 10% “total risk-based capital” ratio. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, the Bank met the capital standards for a well-capitalized institution. The Company’s “common equity Tier 1 risk-based capital” ratio, “Tier 1 leverage capital” ratio, “Tier 1 risk-based capital” ratio, and “total risk-based capital” ratio were ~~11.36%~~10.73%, ~~10.51%~~10.37%, ~~12.32%~~11.60%, and ~~13.24%~~12.49%, respectively, as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015.

In connection with the Doral Florida acquisition, accounted for using the purchase method, the Company acquired approximately $39.3 million in assets, assumed $467.6 million in liabilities, issued no equity and received net funds of $429.9 million during the first quarter of 2015. As a result, the Company recorded a bargain purchase gain of $1.6 million.

The following is a summary of the Company’s additional cash flow information during the ~~three-month~~six-month periods ended:

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value measurements must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. There is a hierarchy of three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Available-for-sale securities are the only material instruments valued on a recurring basis which are held by the Company at fair value. The Company does not have any Level 1 securities. Primarily all of the Company’s securities are considered to be Level 2 securities. These Level 2 securities consist primarily of U.S. government-sponsored enterprises, mortgage-backed securities plus state and political subdivisions. For these securities, the Company obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the bond’s terms and conditions, among other things. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, Level 3 securities were immaterial. In addition, there were no material transfers between hierarchy levels during 2015 and 2014.

The Corporation reviews the prices supplied by the independent pricing service, as well as their underlying pricing methodologies, for reasonableness and to ensure such prices are aligned with traditional pricing matrices. In general, the Company does not purchase investment portfolio securities with complicated structures. Pricing for the Company’s investment securities is fairly generic and is easily obtained.

Impaired loans that are collateral dependent are the only material financial assets valued on a non-recurring basis which are held by the Company at fair value. Loan impairment is reported when full payment under the loan terms is not expected. Impaired loans are carried at the net realizable value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. A portion of the allowance for loan losses is allocated to impaired loans if the value of such loans is deemed to be less than the unpaid balance. If these allocations cause the allowance for loan losses to require an increase, such increase is reported as a component of the provision for loan losses. The fair value of loans with specific allocated losses was ~~$83.4~~$78.6 million and $78.7 million as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. This valuation is considered Level 3, consisting of appraisals of underlying collateral. The Company reversed approximately ~~$51,000~~$255,000 and ~~$104,000~~$459,000 of accrued interest receivable when non-covered impaired loans were put on non-accrual status during the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The Company reversed approximately $306,000 and $563,000 of accrued interest receivable when non-covered impaired loans were put on non-accrual status during the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Foreclosed assets held for sale are the only material non-financial assets valued on a non-recurring basis which are held by the Company at fair value, less estimated costs to sell. At foreclosure, if the fair value, less estimated costs to sell, of the real estate acquired is less than the Company’s recorded investment in the related loan, a write-down is recognized through a charge to the allowance for loan losses. Additionally, valuations are periodically performed by management and any subsequent reduction in value is recognized by a charge to income. The fair value of foreclosed assets held for sale is estimated using Level 3 inputs based on appraisals of underlying collateral. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the fair value of foreclosed assets held for sale not covered by loss share, less estimated costs to sell, was ~~$17.4~~$16.5 million and $17.0 million, respectively.

The significant unobservable (Level 3) inputs used in the fair value measurement of collateral for collateral-dependent impaired loans and foreclosed assets primarily relate to customized discounting criteria applied to the customer’s reported amount of collateral. The amount of the collateral discount depends upon the condition and marketability of the underlying collateral. As the Company’s primary objective in the event of default would be to monetize the collateral to settle the outstanding balance of the loan, less marketable collateral would receive a larger discount. During the reported periods, collateral discounts ranged from 20% to 50% for commercial and residential real estate collateral.

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating fair values of financial instruments as disclosed in these notes:

Cash and cash equivalents and federal funds sold — For these short-term instruments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Investment securities – held-to-maturity — These securities consist primarily of mortgage-backed securities plus state and political subdivisions. For these securities, the Company obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the bond’s terms and conditions, among other things.

Loans receivable not covered by loss share, net of non-covered impaired loans and allowance— For variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are assumed to approximate the carrying amounts. The fair values for fixed-rate loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality. Loan fair value estimates include judgments regarding future expected loss experience and risk characteristics.

Loans receivable covered by FDIC loss share, net of allowance— Fair values for loans are based on a discounted cash flow methodology that considers factors including the type of loan and related collateral, classification status, fixed or variable interest rate, term of loan, current discount rates and whether or not the loan is amortizing. Loans are grouped together according to similar characteristics and are treated in the aggregate when applying various valuation techniques. The discount rates used for loans are based on current market rates for new originations of comparable loans and include adjustments for liquidity concerns. The discount rate does not include a factor for credit losses as that has been included in the estimated cash flows.

FDIC indemnification asset— Although this asset is a contractual receivable from the FDIC, there is no effective interest rate. The Bank will collect this asset over the next several years. The amount ultimately collected will depend on the timing and amount of collections and charge-offs on the acquired assets covered by the loss sharing agreement. While this asset was recorded at its estimated fair value at acquisition date, it is not practicable to complete a fair value analysis on a quarterly or annual basis. This would involve preparing a fair value analysis of the entire portfolio of loans and foreclosed assets covered by the loss sharing agreement on a quarterly or annual basis in order to estimate the fair value of the FDIC indemnification asset.

Accrued interest receivable —The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable approximates its fair value.

Deposits and securities sold under agreements to repurchase — The fair values of demand deposits, savings deposits and securities sold under agreements to repurchase are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand and, therefore, approximate their carrying amounts. The fair values for time deposits are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that utilizes interest rates currently being offered on time deposits with similar contractual maturities.

FHLB borrowed funds — For short-term instruments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value. The fair value of long-term debt is estimated based on the current rates available to the Company for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities.

Accrued interest payable — The carrying amount of accrued interest payable approximates its fair value.

Subordinated debentures — The fair value of subordinated debentures is estimated using the rates that would be charged for subordinated debentures of similar remaining maturities.

Commitments to extend credit, letters of credit and lines of credit— The fair value of commitments is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the counterparties. For fixed-rate loan commitments, fair value also considers the difference between current levels of interest rates and the committed rates. The fair values of letters of credit and lines of credit are based on fees currently charged for similar agreements or on the estimated cost to terminate or otherwise settle the obligations with the counterparties at the reporting date. The fair value of these commitments is not material.

The following table presents the estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments. The fair values of certain of these instruments were calculated by discounting expected cash flows, which involves significant judgments by management and uncertainties. Fair value is the estimated amount at which financial assets or liabilities could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties other than in a forced or liquidation sale. Because no market exists for certain of these financial instruments and because management does not intend to sell these financial instruments, the Company does not know whether the fair values shown below represent values at which the respective financial instruments could be sold individually or in the aggregate.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-12,Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period, impacting FASB ASC 860,Transfers and Servicing. Generally, an award with a performance target requires an employee also render service once the performance target is achieved. In some cases, however, the terms of an award may provide that the performance target could be achieved after an employee completes the requisite service period. The amendments in this update require that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. An entity should apply this guidance as it relates to awards with performance conditions that affect vesting to account for such awards. As such, the performance target should not be reflected in estimating the grant-date fair value of the award. Compensation cost should be recognized in the period in which it becomes probable that the performance target will be achieved and should represent the compensation cost attributable to the period for which the service has already been rendered. The amendments in this update become effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the new guidance on the consolidated financial statements, but it is not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s financial statements.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-14,Classification of Certain Government-Guaranteed Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure, impacting FASB ASC 310-40,Receivables – Troubled Debt Restructuring by Creditors. This update affects creditors that hold government-guaranteed mortgage loans. The amendments in this update require that a mortgage loan be derecognized and that a separate other receivable be recognized if the following conditions are met: (1) the loan has a government guarantee that is not separable from the loan before foreclosure; (2) at the time of foreclosure, the creditor has the intent to convey the real estate property to the guarantor and make a claim on the guarantee, and the creditor has the ability to recover under the claim; (3) at the time of foreclosure, the claim that is determined on the basis of the fair value of the real estate is fixed. Upon foreclosure, the separate other receivable should be measured based on the amount of the loan balance (principal and interest) expected to be recovered from the guarantor. The amendments in this update become effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014. The Company has adopted the new guidance on the consolidated financial statements, which has made no impact to the Company’s financial statements.

Presently, the Company is not aware of any changes from the Financial Accounting Standards Board that will have a material impact on the Company’s present or future financial statements.

On ~~April 1,~~June 17, 2015, the ~~Company’s wholly-owned bank subsidiary,~~Company and Centennial, entered into ana definitive agreement and plan of merger with ~~AM PR LLC, an affiliate~~Florida Business BancGroup, Inc. (“FBBI”), parent company of ~~J.C. Flowers & Co. (collectively, the “Seller”~~Bay Cities Bank (“Bay Cities”) to ~~purchase a pool of national commercial real estate loans totaling approximately $289.1 million for a purchase price of 99%~~merge FBBI into HBI and Bay Cities into Centennial. Under the terms of the ~~total principal value~~agreement, shareholders of the acquired loans. The purchase of the loans was completed on April 1, 2015. The acquired loans were originated by the former Doral Bank within its Doral Property Finance portfolio and were transferred to the Seller by Banco Popular of Puerto Rico upon its acquisition of the assets and liabilities of Doral BankFBBI will receive proceeds from the ~~Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation,~~transaction of approximately $101.6 million as ~~receiver for the failed Doral Bank. This pool~~a combination of ~~loans will now be housed in~~both HBI common stock and cash split 80% and 20%, respectively.

FBBI currently operates six branch locations and a division of Centennial known as the Centennial Commercial Finance Group (“Centennial CFG”). The Centennial CFG will be responsible for servicing the acquired loan pool and originating new loan production.

In connection with this acquisition of loans and the creation of Centennial CFG, Centennial notified the Arkansas State Bank Department and the New York Department of Financial Services of its plans to establish a new loan production office in ~~New York, New York.~~ the Tampa Bay area and in Sarasota, Florida. As of June 30, 2015, FBBI had approximately $573.2 million in total assets, $402.0 million in loans and $495.6 million in deposits.

The ~~Company received confirmation~~acquisition is expected to close in the fourth quarter of ~~no objection from both states~~2015 and ~~opened the loan production office on April 23, 2015. Since the loan production office has been established, Centennial CFG plans~~is subject to ~~build out a national lending platform focusing on commercial real estate plus commercial~~FBBI shareholder approval, regulatory approvals and ~~industrial loans.~~other customary conditions.

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of Home BancShares, Inc. (the Company) as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, ~~and~~ the related condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 and the related statements of stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the ~~three-month~~six-month periods ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and 2014. These interim financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2014, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 27, 2015, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2014, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Item 2:

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 27, 2015, which includes the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014.Unless the context requires otherwise, the terms “Company”, “us”, “we”, and “our” refer to Home BancShares, Inc. on a consolidated basis.

We are a bank holding company headquartered in Conway, Arkansas, offering a broad array of financial services through our wholly-owned bank subsidiary, Centennial Bank (sometimes referred to as “Centennial” or the “Bank”). As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, we had, on a consolidated basis, total assets of ~~$7.51~~$8.07 billion, loans receivable, net of ~~$5.04~~$5.60 billion, total deposits of ~~$5.90~~$5.88 billion, and stockholders’ equity of ~~$1.04~~$1.06 billion.

We generate most of our revenue from interest on loans and investments, service charges, and mortgage banking income. Deposits and FHLB borrowed funds are our primary source of funding. Our largest expenses are interest on our funding sources, salaries and related employee benefits and occupancy and equipment. We measure our performance by calculating our return on average common equity, return on average assets and net interest margin. We also measure our performance by our efficiency ratio, which is calculated by dividing non-interest expense less amortization of core deposit intangibles by the sum of net interest income on a tax equivalent basis and non-interest income.

Impairment testing on the estimated cash flows of the purchased credit impaired loan pools is performed each quarter. Because the economy has improved since the impaired loans were acquired, quite often the impairment test has revealed a projected credit improvement in certain loan pools. As a result of these improvements, the Company is recognizing additional adjustments to yield over the ~~weighted average~~weighted-average life of the loans. When there are improvements in credit quality for covered loans, it decreases the basis in the related indemnification asset and increases our FDIC true-up liability. These positive events are reducing the indemnification asset and increasing our FDIC true-up liability. The indemnification asset reduction is being amortized over the ~~weighted average~~weighted-average life of the shared-loss agreements. This amortization is being shown as a reduction to FDIC indemnification non-interest income. The true-up liability is being expensed over the remaining true-up measurement date as other non-interest expense.

Tables 2 and 3 summarize the recognition of these positive events and the financial impact to the ~~three-month~~three and six-month periods ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and 2014:

Results of Operations for Three Months Ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and 2014

Our net income increased ~~$3.8~~$5.5 million, or ~~13.8%~~19.3%, to ~~$31.1~~$33.9 million for the three-month period ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, from ~~$27.3~~$28.4 million for the same period in 2014. On a diluted earnings per share basis, our earnings were ~~$0.46~~$0.50 and ~~$0.42~~$0.43 per share for the three-month periods ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Excluding the $1.6 million of one-time gain on acquisition offset by $1.4 million of merger expenses associated with the recently completed acquisition of the Florida Panhandle operations of the former Doral Bank (“Doral Florida”), net income was $31.0 million and diluted earnings per share for the first quarter of 2015 remained $0.46 per share. Excluding the $849,000 of merger expenses associated with the acquisition of Liberty Bancshares, Inc. (“Liberty”), net income was $27.9 million, or $0.43 diluted earnings per share, for the first quarter of 2014. The ~~$3.1~~$5.5 million increase in net income ~~excluding merger expenses and acquisition gain~~ is primarily associated with additional net interest income primarily resulting from our 2014 ~~acquisitions of Florida Traditions Bank (“Traditions”) and Broward Financial Holdings, Inc. (“Broward”)~~ and 2015 ~~acquisition of Doral Florida~~acquisitions plus a decrease in provision for loan losses in ~~first~~second quarter of 2015 and reduced amortization of the indemnification asset when compared to the same period in 2014. These improvements were partially offset by a modest increase in the costs associated with the asset growth from our ~~Traditions, Broward & Doral Florida~~2014 and 2015 acquisitions and the opening of the Centennial Commercial Finance Group (“Centennial CFG”) loan production office when compared to the same period in 2014.

Each quarter we perform credit impairment tests on the loans acquired in our FDIC loss-sharing and non-loss-sharing acquisitions. The ~~first~~second quarter of 2015 quarterly impairment testing noted a slight decline in asset quality in ~~five~~eight of our covered loan pools which resulted in a net covered provision for loan loss of ~~$918,000.~~$80,000. Conversely, during 2014 and 2013, the quarterly impairment testing projected material credit improvements. As a result of these credit improvements, ~~$78.3~~$83.3 million of adjustments to yield were determined to be recognized over the ~~weighted~~weighted-average life of the loans. The recognition of these additional credit improvements has begun to slow down. Plus, the accretion income on the portfolio acquired in our acquisition of Liberty Bancshares, Inc. (“Liberty”) in 2013 has begun to slow down. As result, there was a decline of recognized accretion yield from the second quarter of 2014 to the second quarter of 2015. Consequently, yields on loans and net interest margin for the quarter just ended are reduced when compared to the second quarter of 2014.

The effective yield on non-covered loans for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 was 5.63% and 6.08%, respectively. The effective yield on covered loans for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 was 18.40% and 19.38%, respectively. Our annualized net interest margin, on a fully taxable equivalent basis, was 5.00% for the three months ended June 30, 2015, compared to 5.50% for the same period in 2014.

Our annualized return on average assets was 1.72% for the three months ended June 30, 2015, compared to 1.70% for the same period in 2014. Our annualized return on average common equity was 12.98% for the three months ended June 30, 2015, compared to 12.96% for the same period in 2014. Our acquisitions have historically performed below our profitability ratios. We have been making notable progress in improving the performance of the acquired franchises. As a result, there was little to no change in our return on average assets and return on average common equity from 2014 to 2015.

Our efficiency ratio was 40.39% for the three months ended June 30, 2015, compared to 41.09% for the same period in 2014. For the second quarter of 2015, our core efficiency ratio was 40.30% which is improved from the 41.56% reported for second quarter of 2014. The improvement in the core efficiency ratio is primarily associated with additional net interest income resulting from our 2014 and 2015 acquisitions offset by an increase in costs associated with the asset growth from our 2014 and 2015 acquisitions and opening the Centennial CFG loan production office. Core efficiency ratio is calculated by dividing non-interest expense less amortization of core deposit intangibles by the sum of net interest income on a tax equivalent basis and non-interest income excluding non-fundamental items such as merger expenses and/or gains and losses.

Additional information and analysis for our earnings can be found in Table 21 of our Non-GAAP Financial Measurements section of the Management Discussion and Analysis.

Our net income increased $9.3 million, or 16.6%, to $65.0 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2015, from $55.8 million for the same period in 2014. On a diluted earnings per share basis, our earnings were $0.96 and $0.85 per share for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Excluding the $1.6 million of one-time gain on acquisition offset by $1.4 million of merger expenses associated with the acquisition of Doral Bank’s Florida Panhandle operations (“Doral Florida”), net income was $64.9 million and diluted earnings per share for the first six months of 2015 remained $0.96 per share. Excluding the $955,000 of merger expenses associated with the acquisition of Liberty, net income was $56.3 million, or $0.86 diluted earnings per share, for the first six months of 2014. The $8.6 million increase in net income excluding merger expenses and acquisition gain is primarily associated with additional net interest income primarily resulting from our 2014 and 2015 acquisitions plus a decrease in provision for loan losses in the first six months of 2015 and reduced amortization of the indemnification asset when compared to the same period in 2014. These improvements were partially offset by a modest increase in the costs associated with the asset growth from our 2014 and 2015 acquisitions and the opening of the Centennial CFG loan production office when compared to the same period in 2014.

Each quarter we perform credit impairment tests on the loans acquired in our FDIC loss-sharing and non-loss-sharing acquisitions. During 2015, the quarterly impairment testing noted a slight decline in asset quality in thirteen of our covered loan pools which resulted in a net covered provision for loan loss of $998,000. Conversely, during 2014 and 2013, the quarterly impairment testing projected material credit improvements. As a result of these credit improvements, $83.3 million of adjustments to yield were determined to be recognized over the weighted-average life of the loans. The recognition of these additional credit improvements has begun to slow down. Plus, the accretion income on the Liberty portfolio has begun to slow down. As result, there was a decline of recognized accretion yield from the first ~~quarter~~six months of 2014 to the first ~~quarter~~six months of 2015. Consequently, yields on loans and net interest margin for the ~~quarter~~six months just ended are reduced when compared to the first ~~quarter~~six months of 2014.

The effective yield on non-covered loans for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and 2014 was ~~5.65%~~5.64% and ~~6.26%~~6.17%, respectively. The effective yield on covered loans for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and 2014 was ~~14.65%~~16.26% and ~~16.02%~~17.67%, respectively. Our annualized net interest margin, on a fully taxable equivalent basis, was ~~4.94%~~4.97% for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, compared to ~~5.48%~~5.49% for the same period in 2014.

Our annualized return on average assets was ~~1.67%~~1.70% for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, compared to ~~1.64%~~1.67% for the same period in 2014. Our annualized return on average assets excluding merger expenses and gain on acquisition was ~~1.67%~~1.69% for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, compared to ~~1.67%~~1.68% for the same period in 2014. Our annualized return on average common equity was ~~12.33%~~12.66% for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, compared to ~~13.00%~~12.98% for the same period in 2014. Our annualized return on average common equity excluding merger expenses and gain on acquisition was ~~12.28%~~12.64% for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, compared to ~~13.24%~~13.11% for the same period in 2014. Our acquisitions have historically performed below our profitability ratios. We have been making notable progress in improving the performance of the acquired franchises. As a result, there was little to no change in our return on average assets from 2014 to 2015. Conversely, there was a decline in our return on average common equity from 2014 to 2015 due to capital generation from our ~~substantial level of~~ retained earnings.

Our efficiency ratio was ~~41.41%~~40.88% for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, compared to ~~42.07%~~41.58% for the same period in 2014. For the first ~~quarter~~six months of 2015, our core efficiency ratio was ~~40.84%~~40.55% which is improved from the ~~41.39%~~41.48% reported for the first ~~quarter~~six months of 2014. The improvement in the core efficiency ratio is primarily associated with additional net interest income resulting from our ~~acquisitions of Traditions, Broward~~2014 and ~~Doral Florida~~2015 acquisitions offset by ~~a modest~~an increase in costs associated with the asset growth from our ~~acquisitions.~~2014 and 2015 acquisitions and the opening of the Centennial CFG loan production office. Core efficiency ratio is calculated by dividing non-interest expense less amortization of core deposit intangibles by the sum of net interest income on a tax equivalent basis and non-interest income excluding non-fundamental items such as merger expenses and/or gains and losses.

Financial Condition as of and for the Period Ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014

Our total assets as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 increased ~~$110.7~~$671.1 million to ~~$7.51~~$8.07 billion from the $7.40 billion reported as of December 31, 2014. Our loan portfolio not covered by loss share increased by ~~$112.7~~$681.7 million to ~~$4.93~~$5.50 billion as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, from $4.82 billion as of December 31, 2014. This increase is primarily associated with the ~~recent~~first quarter of 2015 acquisition of $37.9 million of Doral Florida non-covered loans, net of the $4.3 million discount, the first quarter of 2015 migration of $56.3 million net covered loans to non-covered status, the second quarter of 2015 acquisition of $289.1 million in national commercial real estate loans plus ~~$18.5~~$298.5 million of organic loan growth since December 31, 2014. Our loan portfolio covered by loss share decreased by ~~$70.7~~$80.3 million to ~~$169.5~~$159.9 million as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, from $240.2 million as of December 31, 2014. This decrease is primarily associated with the first quarter 2015 migration of $56.3 million net covered loans to non-covered status plus normal pay-downs and payoffs. Stockholders’ equity increased ~~$24.3~~$46.4 million to ~~$1.04~~$1.06 billion as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, compared to $1.02 billion as of December 31, 2014. The annualized improvement in stockholders’ equity for the first ~~three~~six months of 2015 was ~~9.7%~~9.2%. The increase in stockholders’ equity is primarily associated with the ~~$34.2~~$63.9 million of comprehensive income less the ~~$8.4~~$16.9 million of dividends paid for the first ~~three~~six months of 2015.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, our non-performing non-covered loans ~~decreased~~increased to ~~$37.5~~$39.9 million, or ~~0.76%~~0.73%, of total non-covered loans from $39.6 million, or 0.82%, of total non-covered loans as of December 31, 2014. The allowance for loan losses for non-covered loans as a percent of non-performing non-covered loans increased to ~~140.56%~~140.11% as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, compared to 132.63% as of December 31, 2014. Non-performing non-covered loans in Arkansas were ~~$22.2~~$25.6 million at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 compared to $24.5 million as of December 31, 2014. Non-performing non-covered loans in Florida were ~~$15.2~~$13.6 million at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 compared to $14.8 million as of December 31, 2014. Non-performing non-covered loans in Alabama were ~~$161,000~~$686,000 at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 compared to $302,000 as of December 31, 2014.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, our non-performing non-covered assets improved to ~~$54.9~~$56.4 million, or ~~0.75%~~0.71%, of total non-covered assets from $56.5 million, or 0.79%, of total non-covered assets as of December 31, 2014. Non-performing non-covered assets in Arkansas were ~~$36.7~~$37.5 million at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 compared to $39.2 million as of December 31, 2014. Non-performing non-covered assets in Florida were ~~$18.1~~$18.2 million at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 compared to $17.0 million as of December 31, 2014. Non-performing non-covered assets in Alabama were ~~$176,000~~$701,000 at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 compared to $317,000 as of December 31, 2014.

Overview. We prepare our consolidated financial statements based on the selection of certain accounting policies, generally accepted accounting principles and customary practices in the banking industry. These policies, in certain areas, require us to make significant estimates and assumptions. Our accounting policies are described in detail in the notes to our consolidated financial statements included as part of this document.

We consider a policy critical if (i) the accounting estimate requires assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time of the accounting estimate; and (ii) different estimates that could reasonably have been used in the current period, or changes in the accounting estimate that are reasonably likely to occur from period to period, would have a material impact on our financial statements. Using these criteria, we believe that the accounting policies most critical to us are those associated with our lending practices, including the accounting for the allowance for loan losses, foreclosed assets, investments, intangible assets, income taxes and stock options.

Investments – Available-for-sale. Securities available-for-sale are reported at fair value with unrealized holding gains and losses reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity and other comprehensive income (loss), net of taxes. Securities that are held as available-for-sale are used as a part of our asset/liability management strategy. Securities that may be sold in response to interest rate changes, changes in prepayment risk, the need to increase regulatory capital, and other similar factors are classified as available-for-sale.

Investments – Held-to-Maturity. Securities held-to-maturity, which include any security for which the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold until maturity, are reported at historical cost adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Premiums and discounts are amortized and accreted, respectively, to interest income using the constant yield method over the period to maturity.

Loans Receivable Not Covered by Loss Share and Allowance for Loan Losses. Except for loans acquired during our acquisitions, substantially all of our loans receivable not covered by loss share are reported at their outstanding principal balance adjusted for any charge-offs, as it is management’s intent to hold them for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff, except for mortgage loans held for sale. Interest income on loans is accrued over the term of the loans based on the principal balance outstanding.

The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged against income. The allowance represents an amount that, in management’s judgment, will be adequate to absorb probable credit losses on identifiable loans that may become uncollectible and probable credit losses inherent in the remainder of the loan portfolio. The amounts of provisions for loan losses are based on management’s analysis and evaluation of the loan portfolio for identification of problem credits, internal and external factors that may affect collectability, relevant credit exposure, particular risks inherent in different kinds of lending, current collateral values and other relevant factors.

The allowance consists of allocated and general components. The allocated component relates to loans that are classified as impaired. For those loans that are classified as impaired, an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows, collateral value or observable market price of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan. The general component covers non-classified loans and is based on historical charge-off experience and expected loss given default derived from the Bank’s internal risk rating process. Other adjustments may be made to the allowance for pools of loans after an assessment of internal or external influences on credit quality that are not fully reflected in the historical loss or risk rating data.

Loans considered impaired, under FASB ASC 310-10-35, are loans for which, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The Company applies this policy even if delays or shortfalls in payment are expected to be insignificant. The aggregate amount of impairment of loans is utilized in evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses and amount of provisions thereto. Losses on impaired loans are charged against the allowance for loan losses when in the process of collection it appears likely that such losses will be realized. The accrual of interest on impaired loans is discontinued when, in management’s opinion the collection of interest is doubtful, or generally when loans are 90 days or more past due. When accrual of interest is discontinued, all unpaid accrued interest is reversed. Interest income is subsequently recognized only to the extent cash payments are received in excess of principal due. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

Groups of loans with similar risk characteristics are collectively evaluated for impairment based on the group’s historical loss experience adjusted for changes in trends, conditions and other relevant factors that affect repayment of the loans.

Loans are placed on non-accrual status when management believes that the borrower’s financial condition, after giving consideration to economic and business conditions and collection efforts, is such that collection of interest is doubtful, or generally when loans are 90 days or more past due. Loans are charged against the allowance for loan losses when management believes that the collectability of the principal is unlikely. Accrued interest related to non-accrual loans is generally charged against the allowance for loan losses when accrued in prior years and reversed from interest income if accrued in the current year. Interest income on non-accrual loans may be recognized to the extent cash payments are received, although the majority of payments received are usually applied to principal. Non-accrual loans are generally returned to accrual status when principal and interest payments are less than 90 days past due, the customer has made required payments for at least six months, and we reasonably expect to collect all principal and interest.

Acquisition Accounting, Acquired Loans and Related Indemnification Asset.The Company accounts for its acquisitions under ASC Topic 805,Business Combinations, which requires the use of the acquisition method of accounting. All identifiable assets acquired, including loans, are recorded at fair value. No allowance for loan losses related to the acquired loans is recorded on the acquisition date as the fair value of the loans acquired incorporates assumptions regarding credit risk. All loans acquired are recorded at fair value in accordance with the fair value methodology prescribed in ASC Topic 820. For covered acquired loans fair value is exclusive of the shared-loss agreements with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). The fair value estimates associated with the loans include estimates related to expected prepayments and the amount and timing of undiscounted expected principal, interest and other cash flows.

Over the life of the purchased credit impaired loans acquired, the Company continues to estimate cash flows expected to be collected on pools of loans sharing common risk characteristics, which are treated in the aggregate when applying various valuation techniques. The Company evaluates at each balance sheet date whether the present value of its pools of loans determined using the effective interest rates has decreased and if so, recognizes a provision for loan loss in its consolidated statement of income. For any increases in cash flows expected to be collected, the Company adjusts the amount of accretable yield recognized on a prospective basis over the pool’s remaining life.

Because the FDIC will reimburse the Company for certain acquired loans should the Company experience a loss, an indemnification asset is recorded at fair value at the acquisition date. The indemnification asset is recognized at the same time as the indemnified loans, and measured on the same basis, subject to collectability or contractual limitations. The shared-loss agreements on the acquisition date reflect the reimbursements expected to be received from the FDIC, using an appropriate discount rate, which reflects counterparty credit risk and other uncertainties.

For our FDIC-assisted transactions, shared-loss agreements continue to be measured on the same basis as the related indemnified loans. Because the acquired loans are subject to the accounting prescribed by ASC Topic 310, subsequent changes to the basis of the shared-loss agreements also follow that model. Deterioration in the credit quality of the loans (immediately recorded as an adjustment to the allowance for loan losses) would immediately increase the basis of the shared-loss agreements, with the offset recorded through the consolidated statement of income as a reduction of the provision for loan losses. Increases in the credit quality or cash flows of loans (reflected as an adjustment to yield and accreted into income over the weighted-average remaining life of the loans) decrease the basis of the shared-loss agreements, with such decrease being amortized into income over 1) the same period or 2) the life of the shared-loss agreements, whichever is shorter. Loss assumptions used in the basis of the indemnified loans are consistent with the loss assumptions used to measure the indemnification asset. Fair value accounting incorporates into the fair value of the indemnification asset an element of the time value of money, which is accreted back into income over the life of the shared-loss agreements.

Upon the determination of an incurred loss, the indemnification asset will be reduced by the amount owed by the FDIC. A corresponding claim receivable is recorded until cash is received from the FDIC.

Foreclosed Assets Held for ~~Sale~~Sale.. Real estate and personal properties acquired through or in lieu of loan foreclosure are to be sold and are initially recorded at fair value at the date of foreclosure, establishing a new cost basis. Valuations are periodically performed by management, and the real estate and personal properties are carried at fair value less costs to sell. Gains and losses from the sale of other real estate and personal properties are recorded in non-interest income, and expenses used to maintain the properties are included in non-interest expenses.

Intangible Assets. Intangible assets consist of goodwill and core deposit intangibles. Goodwill represents the excess purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired in business acquisitions. The core deposit intangible represents the excess intangible value of acquired deposit customer relationships as determined by valuation specialists. The core deposit intangibles are being amortized over 48 to 120 months on a straight-line basis. Goodwill is not amortized but rather is evaluated for impairment on at least an annual basis. We perform an annual impairment test of goodwill and core deposit intangibles as required by FASB ASC 350,Intangibles - Goodwill and Other, in the fourth quarter.

Income Taxes. The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with income tax accounting guidance (ASC 740,Income Taxes). The income tax accounting guidance results in two components of income tax expense: current and deferred. Current income tax expense reflects taxes to be paid or refunded for the current period by applying the provisions of the enacted tax law to the taxable income or excess of deductions over revenues. The Company determines deferred income taxes using the liability (or balance sheet) method. Under this method, the net deferred tax asset or liability is based on the tax effects of the differences between the book and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and enacted changes in tax rates and laws are recognized in the period in which they occur.

Deferred income tax expense results from changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities between periods. Deferred tax assets are recognized if it is more likely than not, based on the technical merits, that the tax position will be realized or sustained upon examination. The term “more likely than not” means a likelihood of more than 50 percent; the terms “examined” and “upon examination” also include resolution of the related appeals or litigation processes, if any. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is initially and subsequently measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. The determination of whether or not a tax position has met the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold considers the facts, circumstances and information available at the reporting date and is subject to management’s judgment. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of evidence available, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized.

The Company and its subsidiary file consolidated tax returns. Its subsidiary provides for income taxes on a separate return basis, and remits to the Company amounts determined to be currently payable.

Stock Options. In accordance with FASB ASC 718,Compensation - Stock Compensation,and FASB ASC 505-50,Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees, the fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant. The Company recognizes compensation expense for the grant-date fair value of the option award over the vesting period of the award.

On April 1, 2015, the Company’s wholly-owned bank subsidiary, Centennial, entered into an agreement with AM PR LLC, an affiliate of J.C. Flowers & Co. (collectively, the “Seller”) to purchase a pool of national commercial real estate loans totaling approximately $289.1 million for a purchase price of 99% of the total principal value of the acquired loans. The purchase of the loans was completed on April 1, 2015. The acquired loans were originated by the former Doral Bank within its Doral Property Finance portfolio (“DPF Portfolio”) and were transferred to the Seller by Banco Popular of Puerto Rico (“Popular”) upon its acquisition of the assets and liabilities of Doral Bank from the FDIC, as receiver for the failed Doral Bank. This pool of loans is now housed in a division of Centennial known as the Centennial CFG. The Centennial CFG is responsible for servicing the acquired loan pool and originating new loan production.

On February 27, 2015, the Company’s banking subsidiary, Centennial, acquired all the deposits and substantially all the assets of Doral ~~Bank’s~~ Florida ~~Panhandle operations (“Doral Florida”)~~ through an alliance agreement with ~~Banco~~ Popular ~~of Puerto Rico (“Popular”)~~ who was the successful lead bidder with the FDIC on the failed Doral Bank of San Juan, Puerto Rico. The acquisition provided the Company with loans of approximately $37.9 million net of loan discounts, deposits of approximately $466.3 million, plus a $428.2 million cash settlement to balance the transaction. There is no loss-share with the FDIC in the acquired assets.

See Note 2 “Business Combinations” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for an additional discussion regarding the acquisition of Doral Florida.

On October 23, 2014, the Company completed its acquisition of Broward Financial Holdings, Inc. (“Broward”), parent company of Broward Bank of Commerce, pursuant to a previously announced definitive agreement and plan of merger whereby a wholly-owned acquisition subsidiary (“Acquisition Sub II”) of HBI merged with and into Broward, resulting in Broward becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of HBI. Immediately thereafter, Broward Bank of Commerce was merged into Centennial. Under the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated July 30, 2014 by and among HBI, Centennial, Broward, Broward Bank of Commerce and Acquisition Sub II, HBI issued 1,020,824 shares of its common stock valued at approximately $30.2 million as of October 23, 2014, plus $3.3 million in cash in exchange for all outstanding shares of Broward common stock. HBI has also agreed to pay the Broward shareholders at an undetermined date up to approximately $751,000 in additional consideration. The amount and timing of the additional payment, if any, will depend on future payments received or losses incurred by Centennial from certain current Broward Bank of Commerce loans. At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had recorded a fair value of zero for the potential additional consideration.

On July 17, 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Florida Traditions Bank (“Traditions”) and merged Traditions into ~~Centennial Bank.~~Centennial. Under the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated April 25, 2014, by and among the Company, Centennial, ~~Bank,~~ and Traditions, the shareholders of Traditions received approximately $39.5 million of the Company’s common stock valued at the time of closing, in exchange for all outstanding shares of Traditions common stock.

The transaction was accretive to the Company’s book value per common share and tangible book value per common share by $0.31 per share and $0.21 per share, respectively.

See Note 2 “Business Combinations” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for an additional discussion regarding the acquisition of Traditions.

In conjunction with the 2010 FDIC-assisted transactions, the Company entered into loss share agreements with the FDIC. These agreements cover realized losses on loans, foreclosed real estate and certain other assets. These loss share assets are measured separately from the loan portfolios because they are not contractually embedded in the loans and are not transferable with the loans should the Company choose to dispose of them. Fair values at the acquisition dates were estimated based on projected cash flows available for loss-share based on the credit adjustments estimated for each loan pool and the loss share percentages. The loss share assets are also separately measured from the related loans and foreclosed real estate and recorded as FDIC indemnification assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Subsequent to the acquisition date, reimbursements received from the FDIC for actual incurred losses will reduce the loss share assets. Reductions to expected credit losses, to the extent such reductions to expected credit losses are the result of an improvement to the actual or expected cash flows from the covered assets, will also reduce the loss share assets. Increases in expected credit losses will require an increase to the allowance for loan losses and a corresponding increase to the loss share assets. As the loss share agreements approach the various expiration dates there could be unexpected volatility as future expected loan losses might become projected to occur outside of the loss share coverage reimbursement window.

During the first quarter of 2015, the five-year covered loan loss-share agreements on the commercial real estate and commercial and industrial loans acquired through the FDIC-assisted acquisitions of Old Southern and Key West concluded. Since the five-year covered loan loss-share has ended, the pools have been reevaluated and are no longer deemed to have a material projected credit impairment. As such, the remaining loans in these pools are performing and have been reclassified out of purchased credit impaired loans and are included in non-covered loans as of June 30, 2015.

Table 4 summarizes the activity in the Company’s FDIC indemnification asset during the periods indicated:

Our purchase and assumption agreements in connection with our 2010 FDIC-assisted acquisitions allow the FDIC to recover a portion of the loss share funds previously paid out under the indemnification agreements in the event losses fail to reach the expected loss under a claw back provision. Should the markets associated with any of the banks we acquired through FDIC-assisted transactions perform better than initially projected, the Bank is required to pay this clawback (or “true-up”) payment to the FDIC on a specified date following the tenth anniversary of such acquisition (the “True-Up Measurement Date”).

Specifically, in connection with the Old Southern and Key West acquisitions, such “true-up” payments would be equal to 50% of the excess, if any, of (i) 20% of a stated threshold of $110.0 million in the case of Old Southern and $23.0 million in the case of Key West, less (ii) the sum of (A) 25% of the asset premium (discount) plus (B) 25% of the Cumulative Shared Loss Payments (defined as the aggregate of all of the payments made or payable to Centennial ~~Bank~~ minus the aggregate of all of the payments made or payable to the FDIC) plus (C) the Period Servicing Amounts for any twelve-month period prior to and ending on the True-Up Measurement Date (defined as the product of the simple average of the principal amount of shared loss loans and shared loss assets (other than shared loss securities) at the beginning and end of such period times 1%).

In connection with the Coastal-Bayside, Wakulla and Gulf State acquisitions, the “true-up” payments would be equal to 50% of the excess, if any, of (i) 20% of an intrinsic loss estimate of $121.0 million in the case of Coastal, $24.0 million in the case of Bayside, $73.0 million in the case of Wakulla and $35.0 million in the case of Gulf State, less (ii) the sum of (A) 20% of the net loss amount (the sum of all losses less the sum of all recoveries on covered assets) plus (B) 25% of the asset premium (discount) plus (C) 3.5% of the total loans subject to loss sharing under the loss sharing agreements as specified in the schedules to the agreements.

The amount of FDIC-assisted acquisitions true-up accrued at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was ~~$9.8~~$10.2 million and $9.4 million, respectively.

We intend to continue opening new (commonly referred to asde novo) branches in our current markets and in other attractive market areas if opportunities arise. In an effort to achieve efficiencies primarily from the acquisitions prior to 2015, the Company closed one ~~Florida~~Arkansas location during the ~~first~~second quarter of 2015 and has plans to close two Arkansas, one ~~Arkansas~~Alabama and ~~one~~two Florida ~~location~~locations during the ~~second~~third quarter of 2015.

During 2014, we initiated a branch efficiency study. Since that time, we have gathered data and evaluated ~~approximately 42~~over 40 branch locations across the Company. The branch efficiency study considers many variables, such as proximity to other branches, deposits, transactions, market share and profitability. The results of the evaluation have narrowed our current focus to approximately ~~eight~~eleven branch locations. Throughout the remainder of the year, it is expected we will announce strategic consolidations where it improves efficiency in certain markets. These closures are expected to ~~incur approximately $2.0 million~~result in closing expenses. ~~Included in these expenses, is the write-off of approximately $823,000 of goodwill, which will lower the impact to tangible book value.~~

The Company currently has 82 branches in Arkansas, 6059 branches in Florida and 7 branches in ~~Alabama.~~Alabama and has opened a loan production office in New York City.

Our net income increased ~~$3.8~~$5.5 million, or ~~13.8%~~19.3%, to ~~$31.1~~$33.9 million for the three-month period ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, from ~~$27.3~~$28.4 million for the same period in 2014. On a diluted earnings per share basis, our earnings were ~~$0.46~~$0.50 and ~~$0.42~~$0.43 per share for the three-month periods ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Excluding the $1.6 million of one-time gain on acquisition offset by $1.4 million of merger expenses associated with the recently completed acquisition of Doral Florida, net income was $31.0 million and diluted earnings per share for the first quarter of 2015 remained $0.46 per share. Excluding the $849,000 of merger expenses associated with the acquisition of Liberty, net income was $27.9 million, or $0.43 diluted earnings per share, for the first quarter of 2014. The ~~$3.1~~$5.5 million increase in net income ~~excluding merger expenses and acquisition gain~~ is primarily associated with additional net interest income primarily resulting from our 2014 ~~acquisitions of Traditions and Broward~~ and 2015 ~~acquisition of Doral Florida~~acquisitions plus a decrease in provision for loan losses in ~~first~~second quarter of 2015 and reduced amortization of the indemnification asset when compared to the same period in 2014. These improvements were partially offset by a modest increase in the costs associated with the asset growth from our ~~Traditions, Broward & Doral Florida~~2014 and 2015 acquisitions and the opening of the Centennial CFG loan production office when compared to the same period in 2014.

Our net income increased $9.3 million, or 16.6%, to $65.0 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2015, from $55.8 million for the same period in 2014. On a diluted earnings per share basis, our earnings were $0.96 and $0.85 per share for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Excluding the $1.6 million of one-time gain on acquisition offset by $1.4 million of merger expenses associated with the acquisition of Doral Florida, net income was $64.9 million and diluted earnings per share for the first six months of 2015 remained $0.96 per share. Excluding the $955,000 of merger expenses associated with the acquisition of Liberty, net income was $56.3 million, or $0.86 diluted earnings per share, for the first six months of 2014. The $8.5 million increase in net income excluding merger expenses and acquisition gain is primarily associated with additional net interest income primarily resulting from our 2014 and 2015 acquisitions plus a decrease in provision for loan losses in the first six months of 2015 and reduced amortization of the indemnification asset when compared to the same period in 2014. These improvements were partially offset by a modest increase in the costs associated with the asset growth from our 2014 and 2015 acquisitions and the opening of the Centennial CFG loan production office when compared to the same period in 2014.

Net interest income, our principal source of earnings, is the difference between the interest income generated by earning assets and the total interest cost of the deposits and borrowings obtained to fund those assets. Factors affecting the level of net interest income include the volume of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, yields earned on loans and investments, rates paid on deposits and other borrowings, the level of non-performing loans and the amount of non-interest-bearing liabilities supporting earning assets. Net interest income is analyzed in the discussion and tables below on a fully taxable equivalent basis. The adjustment to convert certain income to a fully taxable equivalent basis consists of dividing tax-exempt income by one minus the combined federal and state income tax rate (39.225% for the ~~three-month~~three and six-month periods ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and 2014).

The Federal Reserve Board sets various benchmark rates, including the Federal Funds rate, and thereby influences the general market rates of interest, including the deposit and loan rates offered by financial institutions. The Federal Funds rate, which is the cost to banks of immediately available overnight funds, was lowered on December 16, 2008 to a historic low of 0.25% to 0% where it has remained since that time.

Each quarter we perform credit impairment tests on the loans acquired in our FDIC loss-sharing and non-loss-sharing acquisitions. The ~~first~~second quarter of 2015 quarterly impairment testing noted a slight decline in asset quality in ~~five~~eight of our covered loan pools which resulted in a net covered provision for loan loss of ~~$918,000.~~$80,000. Conversely, during 2014 and 2013, the quarterly impairment testing projected material credit improvements. As a result of these credit improvements, ~~$78.3~~$83.3 million of adjustments to yield were determined to be recognized over the ~~weighted average~~weighted-average life of the loans. The recognition of these additional credit improvements has begun to slow down. Plus, the accretion income on the portfolio acquired in our acquisition of Liberty in 2013 has begun to slow down. As result, there was a decline of recognized accretion yield from the second quarter of 2014 to the second quarter of 2015. Consequently, yields on loans and net interest margin for the quarter just ended are reduced when compared to the second quarter of 2014.

Each quarter we perform credit impairment tests on the loans acquired in our FDIC loss-sharing and non-loss-sharing acquisitions. During 2015, the quarterly impairment testing noted a slight decline in asset quality in thirteen of our covered loan pools which resulted in a net covered provision for loan loss of $998,000. Conversely, during 2014 and 2013, the quarterly impairment testing projected material credit improvements. As a result of these credit improvements, $83.3 million of adjustments to yield were determined to be recognized over the weighted-average life of the loans. The recognition of these additional credit improvements has begun to slow down. Plus, the accretion income on the Liberty portfolio has begun to slow down. As result, there was a ~~$4.7 million~~ decline of recognized accretion yield from the ~~fourth quarter~~first six months of 2014 to the first ~~quarter~~six months of 2015. Consequently, yields on loans and net interest margin for the ~~quarter~~six months just ended are reduced when compared to the ~~fourth quarter~~first six months of 2014.

The effective yield on non-covered loans for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and 2014 was ~~5.65%~~5.63% and ~~6.26%~~6.08%, respectively. The effective yield on non-covered loans for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 was 5.64% and 6.17%, respectively. The effective yield on covered loans for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and 2014 was ~~14.65%~~18.40% and ~~16.02%~~19.38%, respectively. The effective yield on covered loans for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 was 16.26% and 17.67%, respectively.

Net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis increased ~~$2.3~~$7.7 million, or ~~2.97%~~9.6%, to ~~$80.9~~$87.3 million for the three-month period ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, from ~~$78.6~~$79.7 million for the same period in 2014. This increase in net interest income was the result of ~~a $2.3~~an $8.0 million increase in interest income ~~offset by~~combined with a ~~$30,000 decrease~~$319,000 increase in interest expense. The ~~$2.3~~$8.0 million increase in interest income was primarily the result of a higher level of earning assets offset by lower yields on our loans. The ~~$30,000 decrease~~$319,000 increase in interest expense for the three-month period ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, is primarily the result of an increase in higher level of our interest bearing liabilities from our 2014 and 2015 acquisitions offset by our interest bearing liabilities repricing in the lower interest rate environment offset by an increase in the volume of our average interest-bearing transaction and savings deposits and FHLB borrowings primarily associated with the acquisitions of Traditions, Broward and Doral Florida. The repricing of our interest bearing liabilities in the lower interest rate environment resulted in a $431,000 decrease in interest expense.environment. The higher level of our interest bearing liabilities resulted in an increase in interest expense of approximately ~~$401,000.~~$809,000. The repricing of our interest bearing liabilities in the lower interest rate environment resulted in a $490,000 decrease in interest expense.

Net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis increased $10.0 million, or 6.3%, to $168.3 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2015, from $158.3 million for the same period in 2014. This increase in net interest income was the result of a $10.3 million increase in interest income combined with a $289,000 increase in interest expense. The $10.3 million increase in interest income was primarily the result of a higher level of earning assets offset by lower yields on our loans. The $289,000 increase in interest expense for the three-month period ended June 30, 2015, is primarily the result of an increase in higher level of our interest bearing liabilities from our 2014 and 2015 acquisitions offset by our interest bearing liabilities repricing in the lower interest rate environment. The higher level of our interest bearing liabilities resulted in an increase in interest expense of approximately $1.2 million. The repricing of our interest bearing liabilities in the lower interest rate environment resulted in a $929,000 decrease in interest expense.

Net interest margin, on a fully taxable equivalent basis, was ~~4.94%~~5.00% and 4.97% for the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, respectively, compared to ~~5.48%~~5.50% and 5.49% for the same period in 2014.

Additional information and analysis for our net interest margin can be found in Tables 22 through 24 of our Non-GAAP Financial Measurements section of the Management Discussion and Analysis.

Tables 5 and 6 reflect an analysis of net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis for the ~~three-month~~three and six-month periods ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and 2014, as well as changes in fully taxable equivalent net interest margin for the ~~three-month period~~three and six-month periods ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, compared to the same period in 2014.

Our management assesses the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses by applying the provisions of FASB ASC 310-10-35. Specific allocations are determined for loans considered to be impaired and loss factors are assigned to the remainder of the loan portfolio to determine an appropriate level in the allowance for loan losses. The allowance is increased, as necessary, by making a provision for loan losses. The specific allocations for impaired loans are assigned based on an estimated net realizable value after a thorough review of the credit relationship. The potential loss factors associated with the remainder of the loan portfolio are based on an internal net loss experience, as well as management’s review of trends within the portfolio and related industries.

While general economic trends have improved, we cannot be certain that the current economic conditions will considerably improve in the near future. Recent and ongoing events at the national and international levels can create uncertainty in the financial markets. Despite these economic uncertainties, we continue to follow our historically conservative procedures for lending and evaluating the provision and allowance for loan losses. Our practice continues to be primarily traditional real estate lending with strong loan-to-value ratios.

Generally, commercial, commercial real estate, and residential real estate loans are assigned a level of risk at origination. Thereafter, these loans are reviewed on a regular basis. The periodic reviews generally include loan payment and collateral status, the borrowers’ financial data, and key ratios such as cash flows, operating income, liquidity, and leverage. A material change in the ~~borrower’s~~borrowers’ credit analysis can result in an increase or decrease in the loan’s assigned risk grade. Aggregate dollar volume by risk grade is monitored on an on-going basis.

Our management reviews certain key loan quality indicators on a monthly basis, including current economic conditions, delinquency trends and ratios, portfolio mix changes, and other information management deems necessary. This review process provides a degree of objective measurement that is used in conjunction with periodic internal evaluations. To the extent that this review process yields differences between estimated and actual observed losses, adjustments are made to the loss factors used to determine the appropriate level of the allowance for loan losses.

Our Company is primarily a real estate lender in the markets we serve. As such, we are subject to declines in asset quality when real estate prices fall during a recession. The recession in the latter years of the last decade harshly impacted the real estate market in Florida. The economic conditions particularly in our Florida market have improved recently, although not to pre-recession levels. Our Arkansas market’s economy has been fairly stable over the past several years with no boom or bust. As a result, the Arkansas economy fared better with its real estate values during this time period.

The provision for loan losses represents management’s determination of the amount necessary to be charged against the current period’s earnings, to maintain the allowance for loan losses at a level that is considered adequate in relation to the estimated risk inherent in the loan portfolio.

Each quarter we perform credit impairment tests on the loans acquired in our FDIC loss-sharing and non-loss-sharing acquisitions. During our second quarter 2015 impairment testing, no pools were determined to have a material projected credit improvement. The ~~first~~second quarter 2015 impairment testing noted a slight decline in asset quality in ~~five~~eight of our covered loan pools which resulted in a net covered provision for loan loss of ~~$918,000.~~$80,000. The quarterly 2015 impairment testing during the first six months of 2015 noted a slight decline in asset quality in thirteen of our covered loan pools which resulted in a net covered provision for loan loss of $998,000. There was zero provision for covered loans for the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014.

There was ~~$2.9~~$5.3 million and $8.2 million of provision for non-covered loans for the three and six months ended ~~March 31, 2015.~~June 30, 2015, respectively. There was ~~$6.9~~$6.1 million and $13.1 million of provision for non-covered loans for the three and six months ended ~~March 31, 2014.~~June 30, 2014, respectively.

The Company experienced ~~a $4.1~~an $814,000 and $4.9 million decrease in the provision for loan losses for non-covered loans during the ~~first~~second quarter and six months of 2015 versus ~~2014.~~the second quarter and six months of 2014, respectively. This expected decrease is primarily a reflection of a slowdown in the migration of the acquired Liberty loans from purchased-loan accounting treatment to originated-loan accounting treatment ~~combined with a lower level of non-performing loans.~~ offset by provisioning for second quarter 2015 organic loan growth.

Based upon current accounting guidance, the allowance for loan losses is not carried over in an acquisition. As a result, none of the acquired loans had any allocation of the allowance for loan losses at merger date. This is the result of all loans acquired being recorded at fair value in accordance with the fair value methodology prescribed in ASC Topic 820. However, as the acquired loans payoff or renew and the acquired footprint originates new loan production, it is necessary to establish an allowance which represents an amount that, in management’s judgment, will be adequate to absorb credit losses. Traditionally, there is a large migration of these loans during the first year after acquisition, which can create an elevated provision for loan losses as was the case during 2014 with respect to the Liberty acquisition. The allowance for loan loss methodology for all originated loans as disclosed in Note 1 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our Form 10-K was used for these loans. Our current or historical provision levels should not be relied upon as a predictor or indicator of future levels going forward.

Total non-interest income was ~~$14.7~~$17.0 million and $31.7 million for the ~~three-month period~~three and six-month periods ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, compared to ~~$12.2~~$11.5 million and $23.7 million for the same period in 2014, respectively. Our recurring non-interest income includes service charges on deposit accounts, other service charges and fees, trust fees, mortgage lending, insurance, title fees, increase in cash value of life insurance, dividends and FDIC indemnification accretion/amortization.

Table 9 measures the various components of our non-interest income for the ~~three-month~~three and six-month periods ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, as well as changes for the ~~three-month period~~three and six-month periods ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 compared to the same ~~period~~periods in 2014.

Non-interest expense for the ~~first quarter of~~three months ended June 30, 2015 was ~~$40.7~~$43.3 million compared to ~~$39.4~~$38.6 million for the ~~first quarter of~~three months ended June 30, 2014. Non-interest expense, excluding merger expenses, was ~~$39.3~~$43.3 million for the ~~first quarter of~~three months ended June 30, 2015 compared to $38.5 million for the same quarter in 2014. Non-interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $84.0 million compared to $78.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014. Non-interest expense, excluding merger expenses, was $82.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to $77.0 million for the same quarter in 2014.

The change in non-interest expense ~~excluding merger expenses~~ this quarter and the six months was ~~relatively flat~~12.0% and 7.7%, respectively, when compared to a year ago ~~even though we completed~~due to the ~~acquisitions~~completion of ~~Florida Traditions Bank and Broward Financial Holdings, Inc. during~~ the ~~second half of~~ 2014 and ~~Doral~~2015 acquisitions and the opening of the Centennial CFG loan production office. While the cost of doing business in New York City is significantly higher than our Arkansas, Florida ~~during~~and Alabama markets, the ~~first quarter of 2015. This demonstrates our commitment~~Company is still committed to cost-saving measures while achieving our goals of growing the Company.

The ~~provision for~~ income ~~taxes~~tax expense increased ~~$2.6~~$3.5 million, or ~~16.5%~~21.4%, to ~~$18.1~~$19.9 million for the three-month period ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, from ~~$15.5~~$16.4 million as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2014. The income tax expense increased $6.1 million, or 19.1%, to $38.1 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2015, from $32.0 million as of June 30, 2014. The effective income tax rate was ~~36.80%~~37.03% and 36.92% for the ~~three-month period~~three and six-month periods ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, compared to ~~36.26%~~36.61% and 36.44% for the same ~~period~~periods in ~~2014.~~2014, respectively. The primary cause of the increase in taxes is the result of our higher earnings at our marginal tax rate of 39.225%.

Financial Condition as of and for the Period Ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014

On April 1, 2015, the Company acquired a pool of national commercial real estate loans from J.C. Flowers & Co. LLC totaling approximately $289.1 million. The Company produced approximately $279.9 million of organic non-covered loan growth since March 31, 2015, of which $223.7 million is associated with loan originations in the legacy footprint with the remaining $56.2 million being associated with Centennial CFG.

During the first quarter of 2015, the five-year loss share agreements on the commercial real estate and commercial and industrial loans acquired through the FDIC-assisted acquisitions of Old Southern and Key West concluded. As a result, $56.3 million of these loans including their associated discounts previously classified as covered loans have migrated to non-covered loans status.

Our non-covered loan portfolio averaged ~~$4.85~~$5.34 billion and $4.14 billion during the three-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Our non-covered loan portfolio averaged $5.10 billion and $4.15 billion during the ~~three-month~~six-month periods ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Non-covered loans were ~~$4.93~~$5.50 billion as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 compared to $4.82 billion as of December 31, 2014, which is a ~~$112.7~~$681.7 million, or ~~9.5%~~28.5%, annualized increase. Excluding the acquisition of Doral Florida, ~~and~~ the migration of Old Southern and Key West loans from loans covered by FDIC loss share to loans not covered by loss share status, and the acquisition of national commercial real estate loans, the loans increased ~~$18.5~~$298.5 million or an annualized increase of ~~1.6%~~12.5%.

The most significant components of the non-covered loan portfolio were commercial real estate, residential real estate, consumer, and commercial and industrial loans. These non-covered loans are primarily originated within our market areas of Arkansas, Florida, ~~and~~ South Alabama and New York, and are generally secured by residential or commercial real estate or business or personal property within our market areas. Non-covered loans were approximately ~~$3.32~~$3.42 billion, ~~$1.40~~$1.51 billion, $229.0 million and ~~$210,000~~$345.4 million as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 in Arkansas, Florida, Alabama and ~~Alabama,~~New York, respectively.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, we had ~~$356.6~~$358.2 million of construction land development loans which were collateralized by land. This consisted of ~~$216.8~~$219.5 million for raw land and ~~$139.8~~$138.7 million for land with commercial and or residential lots.

Table 11 presents our loan balances not covered by loss share by category as of the dates indicated.

As of acquisition date, the Company evaluated $1.61 billion of net loans ($1.67 billion gross loans less $62.1 million discount) purchased in conjunction with the acquisition of Liberty in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 310-20,Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, the net loan balance of the Liberty ASC Topic 310-20 purchased loans is ~~$979.1~~$920.1 million ($~~1.01 billion~~944.3 million gross loans less ~~$27.8~~$24.2 million discount). The fair value discount is being accreted into interest income over the ~~weighted average~~weighted-average life of the loans using a constant yield method.

As of acquisition date, the Company evaluated $120.5 million of net loans ($162.4 million gross loans less $41.9 million discount) purchased in conjunction with the acquisition of Liberty in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 310-30,Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, the net loan balance of the Liberty ASC Topic 310-30 purchased loans is ~~$80.0~~$77.5 million ($~~117.4~~112.7 million gross loans less ~~$37.3~~$35.2 million discount). These purchased non-covered loans are considered impaired if there is evidence of credit deterioration since origination and if it is probable that not all contractually required payments will be collected. During the latter part of the second quarter of 2014 the Company received a $6.0 million unexpected recovery from one large commercial loan that was significantly charged down prior to the acquisition date. Since the Liberty impaired loans are accounted for on a pool basis, this recovery is increasing the yield on the impaired loans over the ~~weighted average~~weighted-average life of the loans in the pool going forward by $4.7 million.

Non-Covered Commercial Real Estate Loans. WeIn our market areas, we originate non-farm and non-residential loans, ~~(primarily~~which are primarily secured by commercial real ~~estate),~~estate, and construction/land development loans and agricultural loans, which are generally secured by real ~~estate located in our market areas.~~estate. Our commercial mortgage loans are generally collateralized by first liens on real estate and amortized over a 15 to 25 year period with balloon payments due at the end of one to five years. These loans are generally underwritten by assessing cash flow (debt service coverage), primary and secondary sources of repayment, the financial strength of any guarantor, the strength of the tenant (if any), the borrower’s liquidity and leverage, management experience, ownership structure, economic conditions, industry specific trends and collateral. Generally, we will loan up to 85% of the value of improved property, 65% of the value of raw land and 75% of the value of land to be acquired and developed. A first lien on the property and assignment of lease is required if the collateral is rental property, with second lien positions considered on a case-by-case basis.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, non-covered commercial real estate loans totaled ~~$2.86~~$3.36 billion, or ~~58.0%~~61.0% of our non-covered loan portfolio, which is comparable to $2.76 billion, or 57.3% of our non-covered loan portfolio, as of December 31, 2014. Our Arkansas, Florida, Alabama and ~~Alabama~~New York non-covered commercial real estate loans were ~~$1.84~~$1.95 billion, ~~$886.3~~$970.0 million, $145.4 million and ~~$128.6~~$288.8 million at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, respectively.

Non-Covered Residential Real Estate Loans. We originate one to four family, owner occupied residential mortgage loans, which are generally secured by property located in our primary market areas. The majority of our non-covered residential mortgage loans consist of loans secured by owner occupied, single family residences. Non-covered residential real estate loans generally have a loan-to-value ratio of up to 90%. These loans are underwritten by giving consideration to the borrower’s ability to pay, stability of employment or source of income, debt-to-income ratio, credit history and loan-to-value ratio.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, non-covered residential real estate loans totaled ~~$1.25~~$1.32 billion, or ~~25.4%~~24.0% of our non-covered loan portfolio, compared to $1.21 billion, or 25.2% of our non-covered loan portfolio, as of December 31, 2014. Our Arkansas, Florida, Alabama and ~~Alabama~~New York non-covered residential real estate loans were ~~$853.8~~$839.8 million, ~~$340.3~~$365.3 million, $57.9 million and ~~$57.2~~$56.5 million at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, respectively.

Non-Covered Consumer Loans. Our non-covered consumer loan portfolio is composed of secured and unsecured loans originated by our banks. The performance of consumer loans will be affected by the local and regional economies as well as the rates of personal bankruptcies, job loss, divorce and other individual-specific characteristics.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, our non-covered consumer loan portfolio totaled ~~$51.9~~$48.3 million, or ~~1.1%~~0.9% of our total non-covered loan portfolio, compared to the $56.7 million, or 1.2% of our non-covered loan portfolio as of December 31, 2014. Our Arkansas, Florida and Alabama non-covered consumer loans were ~~$33.4~~$32.4 million, ~~$17.2~~$14.7 million and $1.2 million at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, respectively. There were no consumer loans outstanding in New York as of June 30, 2015.

Non-Covered Commercial and Industrial Loans. Commercial and industrial loans are made for a variety of business purposes, including working capital, inventory, equipment and capital expansion. The terms for commercial loans are generally one to seven years. Commercial loan applications must be supported by current financial information on the borrower and, where appropriate, by adequate collateral. Commercial loans are generally underwritten by addressing cash flow (debt service coverage), primary and secondary sources of repayment, the financial strength of any guarantor, the borrower’s liquidity and leverage, management experience, ownership structure, economic conditions, industry specific trends and collateral. The loan-to-value ratio depends on the type of collateral. Generally speaking, accounts receivable are financed at between 50% and 80% of accounts receivable less than 60 days past due. Inventory financing will range between 50% and 60% (with no work in process) depending on the borrower and nature of inventory. We require a first lien position for those loans.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, non-covered commercial and industrial loans outstanding totaled ~~$641.4~~$658.5 million, or ~~13.0%~~12.0% of our non-covered loan portfolio, which is comparable to $670.1 million, or 13.9% of our non-covered loan portfolio, as of December 31, 2014. Our Arkansas, Florida and Alabama non-covered commercial and industrial loans were ~~$474.7~~$482.8 million, ~~$144.2~~$151.5 million and ~~$22.5~~$24.2 million at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, respectively. There were no commercial and industrial loans outstanding in New York as of June 30, 2015.

We classify our non-covered problem loans into three categories: past due loans, special mention loans and classified loans (accruing and non-accruing).

When management determines that a loan is no longer performing, and that collection of interest appears doubtful, the loan is placed on non-accrual status. Loans that are 90 days past due are placed on non-accrual status unless they are adequately secured and there is reasonable assurance of full collection of both principal and interest. Our management closely monitors all loans that are contractually 90 days past due, treated as “special mention” or otherwise classified or on non-accrual status.

We have non-covered loans acquired with deteriorated credit quality in our ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 financial statements as a result of our historical acquisitions plus the migration of loans covered by FDIC loss share to loans not covered by loss share status. The credit metrics most heavily impacted by our acquisitions of acquired non-covered loans with deteriorated credit quality were the following credit quality indicators listed in Table 13 below:

On the date of acquisition, acquired credit-impaired loans are initially recognized at fair value, which incorporates the present value of amounts estimated to be collectible. As a result of the application of this accounting methodology, certain credit-related ratios, including those referenced above, may not necessarily be directly comparable with periods prior to the acquisition of the credit-impaired non-covered loans and non-covered non-performing assets, or comparable with other institutions.

Table 13 sets forth information with respect to our non-performing non-covered assets as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. As of these dates, all non-performing non-covered restructured loans are included in non-accrual non-covered loans.

Our non-performing non-covered loans are comprised of non-accrual non-covered loans and accruing non-covered loans that are contractually past due 90 days. Our bank subsidiary recognizes income principally on the accrual basis of accounting. When loans are classified as non-accrual, the accrued interest is charged off and no further interest is accrued, unless the credit characteristics of the loan improve. If a loan is determined by management to be uncollectible, the portion of the loan determined to be uncollectible is then charged to the allowance for loan losses.

Total non-performing non-covered loans were ~~$37.5~~$39.9 million as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, compared to $39.6 million as of December 31, 2014, for ~~a decrease~~an increase of ~~$2.1 million.~~$318,000. Of the ~~$2.1 million decrease~~$318,000 increase in non-performing loans, ~~$2.3~~$1.2 million is from ~~a decrease~~an increase in non-performing loans in our Arkansas market combined with a ~~$141,000 decrease~~$384,000 increase in non-performing loans in our Alabama market offset by a ~~$383,000 increase~~$1.2 million decrease in non-performing loans in Florida. Non-performing loans at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 are approximately ~~$22.2~~$25.6 million, ~~$15.2~~$13.6 million and ~~$161,000~~$686,000 in the Arkansas, Florida and Alabama markets, respectively. There were no non-performing loans in New York market at June 30, 2015.

Although the current state of the real estate market has improved, uncertainties still present in the economy may continue to increase our level of non-performing non-covered loans. While we believe our allowance for loan losses is adequate and our purchased loans are adequately discounted at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, as additional facts become known about relevant internal and external factors that affect loan collectability and our assumptions, it may result in us making additions to the provision for loan losses during 2015. Our current or historical provision levels should not be relied upon as a predictor or indicator of future levels going forward.

Troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) generally occur when a borrower is experiencing, or is expected to experience, financial difficulties in the near term. As a result, the Bank will work with the borrower to prevent further difficulties, and ultimately to improve the likelihood of recovery on the loan. In those circumstances it may be beneficial to restructure the terms of a loan and work with the borrower for the benefit of both parties, versus forcing the property into foreclosure and having to dispose of it in an unfavorable and depressed real estate market. When we have modified the terms of a loan, we usually either reduce the monthly payment and/or interest rate for generally about three to twelve months. For our troubled debt restructurings that accrue interest at the time the loan is restructured, it would be a rare exception to have charged-off any portion of the loan. Only non-performing restructured loans are included in our non-performing non-covered loans. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, we had ~~$30.5~~$27.4 million of non-covered restructured loans that are in compliance with the modified terms and are not reported as past due or non-accrual in Table 13. Our Florida market contains ~~$12.2~~$14.4 million of these non-covered restructured loans.

To facilitate this process, a loan modification that might not otherwise be considered may be granted, resulting in classification as a troubled debt restructuring. These loans can involve loans remaining on non-accrual, moving to non-accrual, or continuing on an accrual status, depending on the individual facts and circumstances of the borrower. Generally, a non-accrual loan that is restructured remains on non-accrual for a period of six months to demonstrate that the borrower can meet the restructured terms. However, performance prior to the restructuring, or significant events that coincide with the restructuring, are considered in assessing whether the borrower can pay the new terms and may result in the loan being returned to an accrual status after a shorter performance period. If the borrower’s ability to meet the revised payment schedule is not reasonably assured, the loan will remain in a non-accrual status.

The majority of the Bank’s loan modifications relate to commercial lending and involve reducing the interest rate, changing from a principal and interest payment to interest-only, a lengthening of the amortization period, or a combination of some or all of the three. In addition, it is common for the Bank to seek additional collateral or guarantor support when modifying a loan. At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, the amount of troubled debt restructurings was ~~$32.3~~$29.2 million, an increase of ~~20.2%~~8.6% from $26.9 million at December 31, 2014. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, ~~94.4%~~93.8% and 100.0%, respectively, of all restructured loans were performing to the terms of the restructure.

Total foreclosed assets held for sale not covered by loss share were ~~$17.4~~$16.5 million as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, compared to $17.0 million as of December 31, 2014 for ~~an increase~~a decrease of ~~$451,000.~~$412,000. The foreclosed assets held for sale not covered by loss share as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 are comprised of ~~$14.5~~$11.9 million of assets located in Arkansas, ~~$2.9~~$4.7 million of assets located in Florida and the remaining $15,000 located in Alabama.

During the first ~~three~~six months of 2015, we had ~~two~~four non-covered foreclosed properties with a carrying value greater than $1.0 million. ~~One~~Two of these four properties ~~were~~are non-farm/non-residential properties in the Florida Panhandle and hold an aggregate carrying value of $2.1 million at June 30, 2015. Another non-farm/non-residential property was acquired in the Liberty acquisition and holds an aggregate carrying value of $3.2 million at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015. The remaining property is a development loan in Northwest Arkansas which has been foreclosed since the first quarter of 2011. The carrying value was ~~$3.6~~$2.0 million at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015. The Company does not currently anticipate any additional losses on these properties. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, no other foreclosed assets held for sale not covered by loss share have a carrying value greater than $1.0 million.

Table 14 shows the summary of foreclosed assets held for sale as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

A loan is considered impaired when it is probable that we will not receive all amounts due according to the contracted terms of the loans. Impaired loans include non-performing loans (loans past due 90 days or more and non-accrual loans), criticized and/or classified loans with a specific allocation, loans categorized as TDRs and certain other loans identified by management that are still performing (loans included in multiple categories are only included once). As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, average non-covered impaired loans were ~~$86.2~~$85.5 million compared to $91.8 million as of December 31, 2014. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, non-covered impaired loans were ~~$87.0~~$84.1 million compared to $85.4 million as of December 31, 2014 for ~~an increase~~a decrease of ~~$1.6~~$1.4 million. This ~~increase~~decrease is primarily associated with the improvements in loan balances with a specific allocation offset by an increase in the level of loans categorized as ~~TDRs offset by the improvements in loan balances with a specific allocation.~~TDRs. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, our Arkansas, Florida and Alabama markets accounted for approximately ~~$49.2~~$48.1 million, ~~$37.5~~$35.3 million and ~~$299,000~~$686,000 of the non-covered impaired loans, respectively. There were no non-covered impaired loans in New York market at June 30, 2015.

We evaluated loans purchased in conjunction with ~~result of~~ our historical acquisitions for impairment in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 310-30,Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality. Purchased loans are considered impaired if there is evidence of credit deterioration since origination and if it is probable that not all contractually required payments will be collected. Purchased impaired non-covered loans are not classified as non-performing non-covered assets for the recognition of interest income as the pools are considered to be performing. However, for the purpose of calculating the non-performing credit metrics, the Company has included all of the non-covered loans which are contractually 90 days past due and still accruing, including those in performing pools. Therefore, interest income, through accretion of the difference between the carrying amount of the loans and the expected cash flows, is being recognized on all purchased impaired loans.

All non-covered loans acquired with deteriorated credit quality are considered impaired loans at the date of acquisition. Since the loans are accounted for on a pooled basis under ASC 310-30, individual loans are not classified as impaired. Since the loans are accounted for on a pooled basis under ASC 310-30, individual loans subsequently restructured within the pools are not classified as TDRs in accordance with ASC 310-30-40. For non-covered loans acquired with deteriorated credit quality that were deemed TDRs prior to the Company’s acquisition of them, these loans are also not considered TDRs as they are accounted for under ASC 310-30.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, there were no non-covered loans acquired with deteriorated credit quality on non-accrual status as a result of the loans being accounted for on the pool basis and the pools are considered to be performing for the accruing of interest income. Also, acquired loans contractually past due 90 days or more are accruing interest because the pools are considered to be performing for the purpose of accruing interest income.

If the non-covered non-accrual loans had been accruing interest in accordance with the original terms of their respective agreements, interest income of approximately ~~$373,000~~$403,000 and ~~$304,000~~$365,000 for the three-month periods ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, would have been recorded.

The Company’s total past due and non-accrual covered loans to total covered loans was ~~8.6%~~6.0% and 9.4% as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

Overview. The allowance for loan losses for non-covered loans is maintained at a level which our management believes is adequate to absorb all probable losses on loans in the loan portfolio. The amount of the allowance is affected by: (i) loan charge-offs, which decrease the allowance; (ii) recoveries on loans previously charged off, which increase the allowance; and (iii) the provision of possible loan losses charged to income, which increases the allowance. In determining the provision for possible loan losses, it is necessary for our management to monitor fluctuations in the allowance resulting from actual charge-offs and recoveries and to periodically review the size and composition of the loan portfolio in light of current and anticipated economic conditions. If actual losses exceed the amount of allowance for loan losses for non-covered loans, our earnings could be adversely affected.

As we evaluate the allowance for loan losses for non-covered loans, we categorize it as follows: (i) specific allocations; (ii) allocations for criticized and classified assets not individually evaluated for impairment; (iii) general allocations; and (iv) miscellaneous allocations.

Specific Allocations.As a general rule, if a specific allocation is warranted, it is the result of an analysis of a previously classified credit or relationship. Typically, when it becomes evident through the payment history or a financial statement review that a loan or relationship is no longer supported by the cash flows of the asset and/or borrower and has become collateral dependent, we will use appraisals or other collateral analysis to determine if collateral impairment has occurred. The amount or likelihood of loss on this credit may not yet be evident, so a charge-off would not be prudent. However, if the analysis indicates that an impairment has occurred, then a specific allocation will be determined for this loan. If our existing appraisal is outdated or the collateral has been subject to significant market changes, we will obtain a new appraisal for this impairment analysis. The majority of the Company’s impaired loans are collateral dependent at the present time, so third-party appraisals were used to determine the necessary impairment for these loans. Cash flow available to service debt was used for the other impaired loans. This analysis is performed each quarter in connection with the preparation of the analysis of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses for non-covered loans, and if necessary, adjustments are made to the specific allocation provided for a particular loan.

For collateral dependent loans, we do not consider an appraisal outdated simply due to the passage of time. However, if an appraisal is older than 13 months and if market or other conditions have deteriorated and we believe that the current market value of the property is not within approximately 20% of the appraised value, we will consider the appraisal outdated and order a new appraisal for the impairment analysis. The recognition of any provision or related charge-off on a collateral dependent loan is either through annual credit analysis or, many times, when the relationship becomes delinquent. If the borrower is not current, we will update our credit and cash flow analysis to determine the borrower’s repayment ability. If we determine this ability does not exist and it appears that the collection of the entire principal and interest is not likely, then the loan could be placed on non-accrual status. In any case, loans are classified as non-accrual no later than 105 days past due. If the loan requires a quarterly impairment analysis, this analysis is completed in conjunction with the completion of the analysis of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses for non-covered loans. Any exposure identified through the impairment analysis is shown as a specific reserve on the individual impairment. If it is determined that a new appraisal is required, it is ordered and will be taken into consideration during completion of the next impairment analysis.

In estimating the net realizable value of the collateral, management may deem it appropriate to discount the appraisal based on the applicable circumstances. In such case, the amount charged off may result in loan principal outstanding being below fair value as presented in the appraisal.

Between the receipt of the original appraisal and the updated appraisal, we monitor the loan’s repayment history. If the loan is over $1.0 million or the total loan relationship is over $2.0 million, our policy requires an annual credit review. In addition, we update all financial information and calculate the global repayment ability of the borrower/guarantors.

As a general rule, when it becomes evident that the full principal and accrued interest of a loan may not be collected, or by law at 105 days past due, we will reflect that loan as non-performing. It will remain non-performing until it performs in a manner that it is reasonable to expect that we will collect the full principal and accrued interest.

When the amount or likelihood of a loss on a loan has been determined, a charge-off should be taken in the period it is determined. If a partial charge-off occurs, the quarterly impairment analysis will determine if the loan is still impaired, and thus continues to require a specific allocation.

Allocations for Criticized and Classified Assets not Individually Evaluated for Impairment. We establish allocations for loans rated “special mention” through “loss” in accordance with the guidelines established by the regulatory agencies. A percentage rate is applied to each loan category to determine the level of dollar allocation.

General Allocations. We establish general allocations for each major loan category. This section also includes allocations to loans, which are collectively evaluated for loss such as residential real estate, commercial real estate, consumer loans and commercial and industrial loans. The allocations in this section are based on a historical review of loan loss experience and past due accounts. We give consideration to trends, changes in loan mix, delinquencies, prior losses, and other related information.

Miscellaneous Allocations. Allowance allocations other than specific, classified, and general are included in our miscellaneous section.

Loans Collectively Evaluated for Impairment. Non-covered loans collectively evaluated for impairment was ~~$4.70~~$5.17 billion and $4.51 billion at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. The percentage of the allowance for loan losses for non-covered loans allocated to non-covered loans collectively evaluated for impairment to the total non-covered loans collectively evaluated for impairment increased from 0.96% at December 31, 2014 to ~~1.04%~~0.97% at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015. This increase is the result of the normal changes associated with the calculation of the allocation of the allowance for loan losses and includes routine changes from the previous year end reporting period such as organic loan growth, unallocated allowance, individual loan impairments, asset quality and net charge-offs.

Charge-offs and Recoveries. Total non-covered charge-offs increased to ~~$3.2~~$3.3 million and $6.5 million for the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, respectively, compared to ~~$2.4~~$2.5 million and $5.0 million for the same ~~period~~periods in ~~2014.~~2014, respectively. Total non-covered recoveries increased to ~~$541,000~~$1.2 million and $1.7 million for the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, respectively, compared to ~~$488,000~~$635,000 and $1.1 million for the same ~~period~~periods in ~~2014.~~2014, respectively. For the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, the net charge-offs were ~~$2.1~~$2.2 million for Arkansas ~~$549,000~~and $13,000 for Alabama plus net recoveries of $38,000 for Florida, equaling a net charge-off position of $2.1 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2015, the net charge-offs were $4.2 million for Arkansas, $511,000 for Florida and ~~$8,000~~$21,000 for Alabama, equaling a net charge-off position of ~~$2.6~~$4.8 million.

During the first ~~three~~six months of 2015, there were ~~$3.2~~$6.5 million in non-covered charge-offs and ~~$541,000~~$1.7 million in non-covered recoveries. While these charge-offs and recoveries consisted of many relationships, there were no individual relationships consisting of charge-offs greater than $1.0 million.

We have not charged off an amount less than what was determined to be the fair value of the collateral as presented in the appraisal (for collateral dependent loans) for any period presented. Loans partially charged-off are placed on non-accrual status until it is proven that the borrower’s repayment ability with respect to the remaining principal balance can be reasonably assured. This is usually established over a period of 6-12 months of timely payment performance.

Table 17 shows the allowance for loan losses, charge-offs and recoveries for non-covered loans as of and for the ~~three-month~~three and six-month periods ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and 2014.

Allocated Allowance for Loan Losses for Non-Covered Loans. We use a risk rating and specific reserve methodology in the calculation and allocation of our allowance for loan losses for non-covered loans. While the allowance is allocated to various loan categories in assessing and evaluating the level of the allowance, the allowance is available to cover charge-offs incurred in all loan categories. Because a portion of our portfolio has not matured to the degree necessary to obtain reliable loss data from which to calculate estimated future losses, the unallocated portion of the allowance is an integral component of the total allowance. Although unassigned to a particular credit relationship or product segment, this portion of the allowance is vital to safeguard against the imprecision inherent in estimating credit losses.

The changes for the period ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and the year ended December 31, 2014 in the allocation of the allowance for loan losses for non-covered loans for the individual types of loans are primarily associated with changes in the ASC 310 calculations, both individual and aggregate, and changes in the ASC 450 calculations. These calculations are affected by changes in individual loan impairments, changes in asset quality, net charge-offs during the period and normal changes in the outstanding loan portfolio, as well any changes to the general allocation factors due to changes within the actual characteristics of the loan portfolio.

Table 18 presents the allocation of allowance for loan losses for non-covered loans as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

There was zero provision for loan losses taken on covered loans during the six months ended June 30, 2014.

Our securities portfolio is the second largest component of earning assets and provides a significant source of revenue. Securities within the portfolio are classified as held-to-maturity, available-for-sale, or trading based on the intent and objective of the investment and the ability to hold to maturity. Fair values of securities are based on quoted market prices where available. If quoted market prices are not available, estimated fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable securities. The estimated effective duration of our securities portfolio was ~~2.7~~3.0 years as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 we had ~~$344.5~~$337.0 million and $356.8 million of held-to-maturity securities, respectively. Of the ~~$344.5~~$337.0 million of held-to-maturity securities, ~~$4.7~~$148.5 million were invested in mortgage-backed securities, $180.6 million were invested in state and political subdivisions, and $7.8 million were invested in obligations of U.S. Government-sponsored enterprises ~~$154.5~~as of June 30, 2015. Of the $356.8 million of held-to-maturity securities, $161.1 million were invested in mortgage-backed securities, ~~and $185.3~~$191.0 million were invested in state and political subdivisions, ~~as of March 31, 2015. Of the $356.8 million of held-to-maturity securities,~~and $4.7 million were invested in U.S. ~~Government- sponsored~~Government-sponsored enterprises ~~$161.1 million were invested in mortgage-backed securities and $191.0 million were invested in state and political subdivisions~~ as of December 31, 2014.

Securities available-for-sale are reported at fair value with unrealized holding gains and losses reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity as other comprehensive income. Securities that are held as available-for-sale are used as a part of our asset/liability management strategy. Securities that may be sold in response to interest rate changes, changes in prepayment risk, the need to increase regulatory capital, and other similar factors are classified as available-for-sale. Available-for-sale securities were $1.08 billion and $1.07 billion as of ~~both March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, ~~2014.~~2014, respectively.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, ~~$488.4~~$492.3 million, or ~~45.7%~~45.6%, of our available-for-sale securities were invested in mortgage-backed securities, compared to $503.1 million, or 47.1%, of our available-for-sale securities as of December 31, 2014. To reduce our income tax burden, ~~$179.3~~$183.0 million, or ~~16.8%~~16.9%, of our available-for-sale securities portfolio as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, was primarily invested in tax-exempt obligations of state and political subdivisions, compared to $176.6 million, or 16.6%, of our available-for-sale securities as of December 31, 2014. Also, we had approximately ~~$353.8~~$357.5 million, or 33.1%, invested in obligations of U.S. Government-sponsored enterprises as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, compared to $336.1 million, or 31.5%, of our available-for-sale securities as of December 31, 2014.

Certain investment securities are valued at less than their historical cost. These declines are primarily the result of the rate for these investments yielding less than current market rates. Based on evaluation of available evidence, we believe the declines in fair value for these securities are temporary. It is our intent to hold these securities to recovery. Should the impairment of any of these securities become other than temporary, the cost basis of the investment will be reduced and the resulting loss recognized in net income in the period the other than temporary impairment is identified.

See Note 3 “Investment Securities” in the Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the carrying value and fair value of investment securities.

Our deposits averaged ~~$5.60~~$5.91 billion and $5.76 billion for the ~~three-month period~~three and six-month periods ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015. Total deposits as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 were $5.90 billion. During the first quarter of 2015 we acquired $466.3 million of deposits through the failed-bank acquisition of Doral Florida, of which $377.2 million were remaining as of March 31, 2015. Total deposits excluding the $377.2 million totaled $5.53$5.88 billion, for an annualized increase of ~~7.6%~~16.9% from December 31, 2014. Deposits are our primary source of funds. We offer a variety of products designed to attract and retain deposit customers. Those products consist of checking accounts, regular savings deposits, NOW accounts, money market accounts and certificates of deposit. Deposits are gathered from individuals, partnerships and corporations in our market areas. In addition, we obtain deposits from state and local entities and, to a lesser extent, U.S. Government and other depository institutions.

Our policy also permits the acceptance of brokered deposits. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, brokered deposits were ~~$31.8~~$82.0 million and $33.6 million, respectively. Included in these brokered deposits are ~~$26.8~~$27.0 million and $28.6 million of Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service (CDARS) as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. CDARS are deposits of our customers we have swapped with other institutions. This gives our customers the potential for FDIC insurance of up to $50.0 million.

The interest rates paid are competitively priced for each particular deposit product and structured to meet our funding requirements. We will continue to manage interest expense through deposit pricing. We may allow higher rate deposits to run off during periods of limited loan demand. We believe that additional funds can be attracted and deposit growth can be realized through deposit pricing if we experience increased loan demand or other liquidity needs.

Table 19 reflects the classification of the average deposits and the average rate paid on each deposit category, which is in excess of 10 percent of average total deposits, for the ~~three-month~~three and six-month periods ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and 2014.

We enter into short-term purchases of securities under agreements to resell (resale agreements) and sales of securities under agreements to repurchase (repurchase agreements) of substantially identical securities. The amounts advanced under resale agreements and the amounts borrowed under repurchase agreements are carried on the balance sheet at the amount advanced. Interest incurred on repurchase agreements is reported as interest expense. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase ~~increased $2.2~~decreased $25.7 million, or ~~1.2%~~14.6%, from $176.5 million as of December 31, 2014 to ~~$178.6~~$150.7 million as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015.

Our FHLB borrowed funds were ~~$277.5~~$866.9 million and $698.0 million at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. ~~This $420.5 million pay down of FHLB borrowed funds is primarily related to the use of the $428.2 million cash settlement received during the Doral Florida acquisition.~~ At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, ~~$92.5~~$25.0 million and ~~$185.0~~$841.9 million of the outstanding balance were issued as short-term and long-term advances, respectively. At December 31, 2014, $515.0 million and $183.0 million of the outstanding balance were issued as short-term and long-term advances, respectively. Our remaining FHLB borrowing capacity was ~~$1.33~~$735.8 billion and $905.6 million as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities, because FHLB may have the right to call or HBI may have the right to prepay certain obligations.

Subordinated debentures, which consist of guaranteed payments on trust preferred securities, were $60.8 million as ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

The trust preferred securities are tax-advantaged issues that qualify for Tier 1 capital treatment subject to certain limitations. Distributions on these securities are included in interest expense. Each of the trusts is a statutory business trust organized for the sole purpose of issuing trust securities and investing the proceeds in our subordinated debentures, the sole asset of each trust. The trust preferred securities of each trust represent preferred beneficial interests in the assets of the respective trusts and are subject to mandatory redemption upon payment of the subordinated debentures held by the trust. We wholly own the common securities of each trust. Each trust’s ability to pay amounts due on the trust preferred securities is solely dependent upon our making payment on the related subordinated debentures. Our obligations under the subordinated securities and other relevant trust agreements, in aggregate, constitute a full and unconditional guarantee by us of each respective trust’s obligations under the trust securities issued by each respective trust.

Stockholders’ equity was ~~$1.04~~$1.06 billion at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 compared to $1.02 billion at December 31, 2014, an annualized increase of ~~9.7%~~9.2%. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 our equity to asset ratio was ~~13.8%~~13.1% and 13.7% respectively. Book value per share was ~~$15.38~~$15.67 at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 compared to $15.03 at December 31, 2014, ~~a 9.4%~~an 8.6% annualized increase.

Common Stock Cash Dividends. We declared cash dividends on our common stock of $0.125 per share and $0.075 per share for each of the three-month periods ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The common stock dividend payout ratio for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and 2014 was ~~27.1%~~24.92% and ~~17.9%~~17.18%, respectively. The common stock dividend payout ratio for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 was 25.98% and 17.52%, respectively. For the ~~second~~third quarter of 2015, the Board of Directors declared a regular ~~$0.125~~$0.15 per share quarterly cash dividend payable ~~June 3,~~September 2, 2015, to shareholders of record ~~May 13,~~August 12, 2015.

Stock Repurchase Program.During the first ~~three~~six months of 2015, the Company utilized a portion of its previously approved stock repurchase program. This program authorized the repurchase of 2,376,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. ~~For~~During the first quarter of 2015, the Company repurchased a total of 67,332 shares with a ~~weighted average~~weighted-average stock price of $29.89 per share. No shares were repurchased during the second quarter of 2015. The 2015 earnings were used to fund these repurchases. Shares repurchased to date under the program total 1,578,228 shares. The remaining balance available for repurchase is 797,772 shares at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015.

Risk-Based Capital. We, as well as our bank subsidiary, are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and other discretionary actions by regulators that, if enforced, could have a direct material effect on our financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, we must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of our assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Our capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators as to components, risk weightings and other factors.

In July 2013, the Federal Reserve Board and the other federal bank regulatory agencies issued a final rule to revise their risk-based and leverage capital requirements and their method for calculating risk-weighted assets (“Basel III”). Basel III became effective for the Company and its bank subsidiary on January 1, 2015.

Basel III applies to all depository institutions, bank holding companies with total consolidated assets of $500 million or more, and savings and loan holding companies. Among other things, Basel III establishes a new minimum and well-capitalized “common equity Tier 1 capital” requirement of 4.5% and 6.5% of risk-weighted assets, respectively. It also raises the minimum and well-capitalized “Tier 1 risk-based capital” requirement to 6% and 8% of risk-weighted assets, respectively. Basel III changes assigned higher risk weightings (150%) to exposures that are more than 90 days past due or are on non-accrual status and certain commercial real estate facilities that finance the acquisition, development or construction of real property.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require us to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets, and of Tier 1 capital to average assets. Management believes that, as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we met all regulatory capital adequacy requirements to which we were subject.

Table 20 presents our risk-based capital ratios as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

As of the most recent notification from regulatory agencies, our bank subsidiary was “well-capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as “well-capitalized”, we, as well as our banking subsidiary, must maintain minimum leverage, Tier 1 risk-based capital, and total risk-based capital ratios as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or events since that notification that we believe have changed the bank subsidiary’s category.

Our accounting and reporting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and the prevailing practices in the banking industry. However, due to the application of purchase accounting from the Company’s significant number of historical acquisitions (especially Liberty), we believe certain non-GAAP measures and ratios that exclude the impact of these items are useful to the investors and users of our financial statements to evaluate our performance, including net income, earnings per share, net interest margin and the allowance for loan losses for non-covered loans to total non-covered loans.

Because of the Company’s significant number of historical acquisitions, our net income, earnings per share, net interest margin and the allowance for loan losses for non-covered loans to total non-covered loans were significantly impacted by accretion and amortization of the fair value adjustments recorded in purchase accounting combined with the recording of provision for loan losses as loans migrate from purchased loan accounting treatment to originated loan accounting treatment. The accretion, amortization and provision for loan losses affect our net income, earnings per share and certain operating ratios as we accrete loan discounts to interest income; amortize premiums and discounts on time deposits to interest expense; amortize impairments of the indemnification assets to non-interest income; amortize intangible assets and accrue FDIC true-up liability to non-interest expense; expense merger and acquisition costs and make provision for loan losses to cover new loans originated which are replacing the purchased loans acquired.

The Company experienced an $814,000 decrease in the provision for loan losses for non-covered loans during the second quarter of 2015 versus 2014. This expected decrease is primarily a ~~$4.1~~reflection of a slowdown in the migration of the acquired Liberty loans from purchased-loan accounting treatment to originated-loan accounting treatment offset by provisioning for second quarter 2015 organic loan growth. The Company experienced a $4.9 million decrease in the provision for loan losses for non-covered loans during the first ~~quarter~~six months of 2015 versus 2014. This expected decrease is primarily a reflection of a slowdown in the migration of the acquired Liberty loans from purchased-loan accounting treatment to originated-loan accounting treatment combined with a lower level of non-performing loans. Based upon current accounting guidance, the allowance for loan losses is not carried over in an acquisition. As a result, none of the acquired loans had any allocation of the allowance for loan losses at merger date. This is the result of all loans acquired being recorded at fair value in accordance with the fair value methodology prescribed in ASC Topic 820. However, as the acquired loans payoff or renew and the acquired footprint originates new loan production, it is necessary to establish an allowance which represents an amount that, in management’s judgment, will be adequate to absorb credit losses. Traditionally, there is a large migration of these loans during the first year after acquisition, which can create an elevated provision for loan losses as was the case during 2014 with respect to the Liberty acquisition. As the acquired loans mature and are renewed as new credits, management evaluates the credit risk associated with these new credit decisions and determines the required allowance for loan loss for these new originated loans using the allowance for loan loss methodology for all originated loans as disclosed in Note 1 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our Form 10-K.

We had ~~$1.54~~$1.48 billion of purchased non-covered loans, which includes ~~$134.7~~$131.7 million of discount for credit losses on non-covered loans acquired, at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015. We had $1.77 billion of purchased non-covered loans, which includes $139.7 million of discount for credit losses on non-covered loans acquired, at December 31, 2014. For purchased credit-impaired financial assets, GAAP requires a discount embedded in the purchase price that is attributable to the expected credit losses at the date of acquisition, which is a different approach from non-purchased-credit-impaired assets. While the discount for credit losses on purchased non-covered loans is not available for credit losses on non-purchased non-covered loans, management believes it is useful information to show the same accounting as if applied to all loans, including those acquired in a business combination.

We believe these non-GAAP measures and ratios, when taken together with the corresponding GAAP measures and ratios, provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance. We believe investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP measures and ratios in assessing our operating results and related trends, and when planning and forecasting future periods. However, these non-GAAP measures and ratios should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for or preferable to, ratios prepared in accordance with GAAP. In Tables 21 through 25 below, we have provided a reconciliation of, where applicable, the most comparable GAAP financial measures and ratios to the non-GAAP financial measures and ratios, or a reconciliation of the non-GAAP calculation of the financial measure for the periods indicated:

See Note 22 in the Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of certain recently issued and recently adopted accounting pronouncements.

Liquidity Management. Liquidity refers to the ability or the financial flexibility to manage future cash flows to meet the needs of depositors and borrowers and fund operations. Maintaining appropriate levels of liquidity allows us to have sufficient funds available for reserve requirements, customer demand for loans, withdrawal of deposit balances and maturities of deposits and other liabilities. Our primary source of liquidity at our holding company is dividends paid by our bank subsidiary. Applicable statutes and regulations impose restrictions on the amount of dividends that may be declared by our bank subsidiary. Further, any dividend payments are subject to the continuing ability of the bank subsidiary to maintain compliance with minimum federal regulatory capital requirements and to retain its characterization under federal regulations as a “well-capitalized” institution.

Our bank subsidiary has potential obligations resulting from the issuance of standby letters of credit and commitments to fund future borrowings to our loan customers. Many of these obligations and commitments to fund future borrowings to our loan customers are expected to expire without being drawn upon; therefore, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements affecting our liquidity position.

Liquidity needs can be met from either assets or liabilities. On the asset side, our primary sources of liquidity include cash and due from banks, federal funds sold, available-for-sale investment securities and scheduled repayments and maturities of loans. We maintain adequate levels of cash and cash equivalents to meet our day-to-day needs. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, our cash and cash equivalents were ~~$197.6~~$204.4 million, or ~~2.6%~~2.5% of total assets, compared to $112.5 million, or 1.5% of total assets, as of December 31, 2014. Our available-for-sale investment securities and federal funds sold were $1.08 billion as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and $1.07 billion as of December 31, 2014.

Our investment portfolio is comprised of approximately ~~78.7%~~78.6% or $1.11 billion of securities which mature in less than five years. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, ~~$1.24~~$1.35 billion and ~~$1.23~~$1.40 billion, respectively, of securities were pledged as collateral for various public fund deposits and securities sold under agreements to repurchase.

On the liability side, our principal sources of liquidity are deposits, borrowed funds, and access to capital markets. Customer deposits are our largest sources of funds. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, our total deposits were ~~$5.90~~$5.88 billion, or ~~78.5%~~72.8% of total assets, compared to $5.42 billion, or 73.3% of total assets, as of December 31, 2014. We attract our deposits primarily from individuals, business, and municipalities located in our market areas.

We may occasionally use our Fed funds lines of credit in order to temporarily satisfy short-term liquidity needs. We have Fed funds lines with three other financial institutions pursuant to which we could have borrowed up to $35.0 million on an unsecured basis as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. These lines may be terminated by the respective lending institutions at any time.

We also maintain lines of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank. Our FHLB borrowed funds were ~~$277.5~~$866.9 million and $698.0 million at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, ~~$92.5~~$25.0 million and ~~$185.0~~$841.9 million of the outstanding balance were issued as short-term and long-term advances, respectively. At December 31, 2014, $515.0 million and $183.0 million of the outstanding balance were short-term and long-term advances, respectively. Our FHLB borrowing capacity was ~~$1.33~~$735.8 billion and $905.6 million as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

Market Risk Management. Our primary component of market risk is interest rate volatility. Fluctuations in interest rates will ultimately impact both the level of income and expense recorded on a large portion of our assets and liabilities, and the market value of all interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, other than those which possess a short term to maturity. We do not hold market risk sensitive instruments for trading purposes.

Asset/Liability Management. Our management actively measures and manages interest rate risk. The asset/liability committees of the boards of directors of our holding company and bank subsidiary are also responsible for approving our asset/liability management policies, overseeing the formulation and implementation of strategies to improve balance sheet positioning and earnings, and reviewing our interest rate sensitivity position.

One of the tools that our management uses to measure short-term interest rate risk is a net interest income simulation model. This analysis calculates the difference between net interest income forecasted, using base market rates and using a rising and a falling interest rate scenario. The income simulation model includes various assumptions regarding the re-pricing relationships for each of our products. Many of our assets are floating rate loans, which are assumed to re-price immediately, and proportional to the change in market rates, depending on their contracted index. Some loans and investments include the opportunity of prepayment (embedded options), and accordingly the simulation model uses indexes to estimate these prepayments and reinvest their proceeds at current yields. Our non-term deposit products re-price more slowly, usually changing less than the change in market rates and at our discretion.

This analysis indicates the impact of changes in net interest income for the given set of rate changes and assumptions. It assumes the balance sheet remains static and that its structure does not change over the course of the year. It does not account for all factors that impact this analysis, including changes by management to mitigate the impact of interest rate changes or secondary impacts such as changes to our credit risk profile as interest rates change.

Furthermore, loan prepayment rate estimates and spread relationships change regularly. Interest rate changes create changes in actual loan prepayment rates that will differ from the market estimates incorporated in this analysis. Changes that vary significantly from the assumptions may have significant effects on our net interest income.

Interest Rate Sensitivity. Our primary business is banking and the resulting earnings, primarily net interest income, are susceptible to changes in market interest rates. It is management’s goal to maximize net interest income within acceptable levels of interest rate and liquidity risks.

A key element in the financial performance of financial institutions is the level and type of interest rate risk assumed. The single most significant measure of interest rate risk is the relationship of the repricing periods of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The more closely the repricing periods are correlated, the less interest rate risk we assume. We use repricing gap and simulation modeling as the primary methods in analyzing and managing interest rate risk.

Gap analysis attempts to capture the amounts and timing of balances exposed to changes in interest rates at a given point in time. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, our gap position was liability sensitive with a one-year cumulative repricing gap as a percentage of total earning assets of negative ~~3.1%~~5.7%. During this period, the amount of change our asset base realizes in relation to the total change in market interest rates is lower than that of the liability base. As a result, our net interest income will have a negative effect in an environment of modestly rising rates.

We have a portion of our securities portfolio invested in mortgage-backed securities. Mortgage-backed securities are included based on their final maturity date. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

Table 31 presents a summary of the repricing schedule of our interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities (gap) as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015.

Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms. Additionally, our disclosure controls and procedures were also effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act report is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2015, which have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

There are no material pending legal proceedings, other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to its business, to which ~~Home BancShares, Inc.~~the Company or its subsidiaries are a party or of which any of their property is the subject.

~~There~~Except for the risk factors set for below, there were no material changes from the risk factors set forth in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” of our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. See the discussion of our risk factors in the Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC. The risks described are not the only risks facing the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.

Our success depends significantly on our Chairman, John W. Allison, and our executive officers, especially C. Randall Sims, Brian S. Davis and Kevin D. Hester plus Centennial Bank’s Chief Executive Officer and President, Tracy M. French, and our regional Centennial Bank presidents, Robert F. Birch, Russell D. Carter, III and Jim F. Haynes, Jr. Centennial Bank, in particular, relies heavily on its management team’s relationships in its local communities to generate business. Because we do not have employment agreements or non-compete agreements with our executive officers and regional bank presidents, these employees are free to resign at any time and accept an employment offer from another company, including a competitor. The loss of services from a member of our current management team may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects.

If our bank subsidiary’s assets exceed $10 billion in the future, its change in status under the federal bank regulatory framework will result in increased compliance costs for the bank subsidiary, which could affect our operating results.

Among other things, the Dodd-Frank Act created the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (the “CFPB”), which has broad regulatory and enforcement powers over consumer financial products and services. Banks with total assets of more than $10 billion are subject to certain capital testing regulations which are not applicable to smaller banks, and further, the CFPB has exclusive or primary authority to examine banks with more than $10 billion for, and enforce compliance with, the federal consumer financial protection laws. As of June 30, 2015, our bank subsidiary had $8.06 billion in assets. On a pro-forma basis assuming completion of our acquisition of FBBI and its bank subsidiary, our bank subsidiary would have had $8.63 billion in assets as of June 30, 2015. In the event that our bank subsidiary’s total assets exceed $10 billion at the end of four consecutive quarters in the future, the bank subsidiary would become subject to additional requirements and regulations and CFPB supervision, examination and enforcement. We expect that our bank subsidiary would have increased compliance costs as a result of such a change in status, which could affect our operating results.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
