The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Hancock Whitney Corporation and all other entities in which it has a controlling interest (the “Company”). The financial statements include all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly state the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The Company has also evaluated all subsequent events for potential recognition and disclosure through the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Some financial information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. Financial information reported in these financial statements is not necessarily indicative of the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows for any other interim or annual period.

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These changes in presentation did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or operating results.

The accounting principles the Company follows and the methods for applying these principles conform to GAAP and general practices followed by the banking industry. These accounting principles require management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

There were no material changes or developments during the reporting period with respect to methodologies that the Company uses when applying what management believes are critical accounting policies and developing critical accounting estimates as disclosed in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. Refer to Note 16 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements for a discussion of accounting standards adopted during the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019.

On July 13, 2018, the Company acquired the bank-managed high net worth individual and institutional investment management and trust business of Capital One, National Association (“Capital One”). The transaction added assets under management of $4 billion and assets under management and administration of $10.4 billion to the Company’s existing trust and asset management business. In addition, the Company assumed approximately $217 million of customer deposit liabilities. The following table sets forth the acquisition date fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed, the consideration received, and the resulting goodwill.

Identifiable intangible assets include customer relationships that are being amortized using an accelerated method based on forecasted cash flows over a useful life of approximately 17 years. Goodwill represents the excess of the fair value of net liabilities assumed over the consideration received. It is comprised of estimated future economic benefits arising from the transaction that cannot be individually identified or do not qualify for separate recognition. These benefits include expanded presence in existing markets and entry into new

markets, and expected earnings streams and operational efficiencies that the Company believes will result from this business combination. The tax basis of the goodwill is deductible for federal income tax purposes.

The following table presents the change in the Company’s goodwill during the year ended December 31, 2018 and the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019.

The acquired trust and asset management business added ~~$4.9~~$10.1 million in trust fee revenue and ~~$4.8~~$9.8 million of expense to the Company’s results of operations for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. The results are not material to the Company’s results of operations and, as such, supplemental proforma financial information for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2018 is not presented. During the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2018, the Company incurred acquisition related costs of approximately ~~$0.3~~$1.9 million.

On April 30, 2019, the Company announced its entry to an Agreement and Plan of Merger providing for, among other things, the acquisition of MidSouth Bancorp, Inc. (“MidSouth”) (NYSE: MSL), parent company of MidSouth Bank, N.A. At June 30, 2019, MidSouth had approximately $1.7 billion in assets, including $0.9 billion of loans, and $1.4 billion of deposits. Under the terms of the agreement, each share of MidSouth common stock outstanding will convert, pursuant to a fixed conversion ratio, into the right to receive 0.2952 shares of the Company’s common stock. In addition, the merger agreement allows for the redemption of all of MidSouth’s outstanding preferred stock at closing, subject to receipt of applicable governmental approvals. The value of the stock-based consideration will be determined at the time of closing based on the fixed conversion ratio. The approximate transaction value based on an average of the Company’s share price at the date of the agreement, April 30, 2019, was $213 million. The acquisition is subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including the receipt of regulatory approvals and approval by the shareholders of MidSouth. The transaction is expected to close late in the third quarter of 2019.

The unrealized losses relate primarily to changes in market rates on fixed rate debt securities since the respective purchase dates. In all cases, the indicated impairment on these debt securities would be recovered no later than the security’s maturity date or possibly earlier if the market price for the security increases with a reduction in the yield required by the market. None of the unrealized losses relate to the marketability of the securities or the issuers’ abilities to meet contractual obligations. The Company had adequate liquidity as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 and did not intend to nor believe that it would be required to sell these securities before recovery of the indicated impairment. Accordingly, the unrealized losses on these securities were determined to be temporary. Should the Company’s intent to sell these securities change, the difference between the amortized cost and the fair value will be recognized into earnings at that time.

There were no sales of securities during the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019 and 2018.

Securities with carrying values totaling ~~$3.7~~$3.5 billion and $3.4 billion at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, were pledged as collateral, primarily to secure public deposits or securities sold under agreements to repurchase.

The Company generally makes loans in its market areas of south Mississippi, southern and central Alabama, south Louisiana, the Houston, Texas area, the northern, central, and panhandle regions of Florida, and Nashville, Tennessee. Loans, net of unearned income, by portfolio are presented in the table below.

Commercial and industrial loans are made available to businesses for working capital (including financing of inventory and receivables), business expansion, to facilitate the acquisition of a business, and the purchase of equipment and machinery, including equipment leasing. These loans are primarily made based on the identified cash flows of the borrower and, when secured, have the added strength of the underlying collateral.

Commercial non-real estate loans may be secured by the assets being financed or other tangible or intangible business assets such as accounts receivable, inventory, ownership, enterprise value or commodity interests, and may incorporate a personal or corporate guarantee; however, some short-term loans may be made on an unsecured basis, including a small portfolio of corporate credit cards, generally issued as a part of overall customer relationships.

Commercial real estate – owner occupied loans consist of commercial mortgages on properties where repayment is generally dependent on the cash flow from the ongoing operations and activities of the borrower. Like commercial non-real estate, these loans are primarily made based on the identified cash flows of the borrower, but also have the added strength of the value of underlying real estate collateral.

Commercial real estate – income producing loans consist of loans secured by commercial mortgages on properties where the loan is made to real estate developers or investors and repayment is dependent on the sale, refinance, or income generated from the operation of the property. Properties financed include retail, office, multifamily, senior housing, hotel/motel, skilled nursing facilities and other commercial properties.

Construction and land development loans are made to facilitate the acquisition, development, improvement and construction of both commercial and residential-purpose properties. Such loans are made to builders and investors where repayment is expected to be made from the sale, refinance or operation of the property or to businesses to be used in their business operations. This portfolio also includes a small amount of residential construction loans and loans secured by raw land not yet under development.

Residential mortgages consist of closed-end loans secured by first liens on 1- 4 family residential properties. The portfolio includes both fixed and adjustable rate loans, although most longer term, fixed rate loans originated are sold in the secondary mortgage market.

Consumer loans include second lien mortgage home loans, home equity lines of credit and nonresidential consumer purpose loans. Nonresidential consumer loans include both direct and indirect loans. Direct nonresidential consumer loans are made to finance the purchase of personal property, including automobiles, recreational vehicles and boats, and for other personal purposes (secured and unsecured), and deposit account secured loans. Indirect nonresidential consumer loans include automobile financing provided to the consumer through an agreement with automobile dealerships. Consumer loans also include a small portfolio of credit card receivables issued on the basis of applications received through referrals from the Bank’s branches, online and other marketing efforts.

Included in loans are ~~$7.3~~$8.7 million and $7.1 million of consumer loans secured by single family residential real estate that are in process of foreclosure as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Loans in process of foreclosure include those for which formal foreclosure proceedings are in process according to local requirements of the applicable jurisdiction. In addition to the single family residential real estate loans in process of foreclosure, the Company also held ~~$2.2~~$2.6 million and $1.8 million of foreclosed single family residential properties in other real estate owned at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

The Company has amended its accounting policy related to leases to comply with the new standard as follows. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception of the contract and assesses the appropriate classification as finance or operating. Operating leases with terms greater than one year are included in right-of-use lease assets and lease obligations on the Company’s balance sheets. The lease term includes payments to be made in optional or renewal periods only if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise an option to extend the lease or not to exercise an option to terminate the lease. Right-of-use assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term using the interest rate implicit in the contract, when available, or the Company’s incremental collateralized borrowing rate with similar terms. Agreements with both lease and non-lease components are accounted for separately, with only the lease component capitalized. The right-of-use asset is the amount of the lease liability adjusted for prepaid or accrued lease payments, remaining balance of any lease incentives received, unamortized initial direct costs, and impairment. Lease expense is recorded on a straight-line basis over the lease term through amortization of the right-of-use asset plus implicit interest accreted on the operating lease liability obligation, and is reflected in Net Occupancy Expense in the Consolidated Statement of Income.

Some of the Company’s leases contain variable components, such as annual changes to rent based on the consumer price index. Operating lease liabilities are not re-measured as a result of changes to variable components unless the lease must be re-measured for

some other reason such as a renewal that was not reasonably certain of being exercised. Changes to the variable components are treated as variable lease payments and recognized in the period in which the obligation for those payments was incurred.

The standard provides several practical expedients available for use in transition. The Company elected to use the standard’s “package of practical expedients,” which allows the use of previous conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and the accounting treatment for initial direct costs. The Company also elected the short-term lease recognition exemption for all leases with lease terms of one year or less; as such, the Company will not recognize right-of-use assets or lease liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet for such leases. The Company valued its lease obligation using incremental collateralized borrowing rates as of January 1, 2019 for the remaining term of each identified lease. At adoption, the Company recorded a right-of-use asset totaling $115.9 million and a liability for lease payment obligations totaling $130.7 million, offset by the elimination of $14.8 million of existing lease incentive and other deferred rent liabilities. Accounting for leases in accordance with Topic 842 has not had a material impact upon the Company’s consolidated results of operations, and is not expected to in future periods.

The Company has operating leases on a number of its branches, certain regional headquarters and other properties to limit its exposure to ownership risks such as fluctuations in real estate prices and obsolescence. The Company leases real estate with lease terms generally from five to 20 years, some of which have renewal options from one to 20 years. As these extension options are not generally considered reasonably certain of renewal, they are not included in the lease term. The Company is not a lessee in any contracts classified as finance leases.

Included in short-term borrowings are customer securities sold under agreements to repurchase (“repurchase agreements”) that mature daily and are secured by U.S. agency securities totaling ~~$478.3~~$631.0 million and $428.6 million at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. The Company borrows funds on a secured basis by selling securities under agreements to repurchase, mainly in connection with treasury management services offered to its deposit customers. As the Company maintains effective control over assets sold under agreements to repurchase, the securities continue to be carried on the consolidated statements of financial condition. Because the Company acts as borrower transferring assets to the counterparty, and the agreements mature daily, the Company’s risk is limited.

The Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage risks related to differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments, currently related to select pools of variable rate loans and fixed rate brokered deposits. The Bank also enters into interest rate derivative agreements as a service to certain qualifying customers. The Bank manages a matched book with respect to these customer derivatives in order to minimize its net risk exposure resulting from such agreements. The Bank also enters into risk participation agreements under which it may either sell or buy

credit risk associated with a customer’s performance under certain interest rate derivative contracts related to loans in which participation interests have been sold to or purchased from other banks.

The table below presents the notional or contractual amounts and fair values of the Company’s derivative financial instruments as well as their classification on the consolidated balance sheets at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

The Company is party to various interest rate swap agreements designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges of the Company’s forecasted variable cash flows for pools of variable rate loans. For each agreement, the Company receives interest at a fixed rate and pays at a variable rate. During the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2018, the Company terminated five of its shorter-term swap agreements with notional amounts totaling $450 million and entered into five longer-term agreements with notional amounts totaling $450 million. The Company paid termination fees of approximately $10.6 million to settle the interest rate swap liabilities, and the resulting accumulated other comprehensive loss is being amortized over the remaining maturities of the designated instruments. Amortization of other comprehensive loss on terminated cash flow hedges totaled ~~$1.4 million and $1.0~~$2.5 million for each of the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019 and ~~2018, respectively.~~2018. The notional amounts of the swap agreements in place at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019 expire as follows: $50 million in 2021; $475 million in 2022; ~~$350~~$450 million in 2023; and $100 million in 2024.

The Company enters into interest rate swap agreements that modify the Company’s exposure to interest rate risk by effectively converting a portion of the Company’s brokered certificates of deposit from fixed rates to variable rates. The maturities and call features of these interest rate swaps match the features of the hedged deposits. As interest rates fall, the decline in the value of the certificates of deposit is offset by the increase in the value of the interest rate swaps. Conversely, as interest rates rise, the value of the underlying hedged deposits increases, but the value of the interest rate swaps decreases, resulting in no impact on earnings. Interest expense is adjusted by the difference between the fixed and floating rates for the period the swaps are in effect.

The Bank enters into interest rate derivative agreements, primarily rate swaps, with commercial banking customers to facilitate their risk management strategies. The Bank enters into offsetting agreements with unrelated financial institutions, thereby mitigating its net risk exposure resulting from such transactions. Because the interest rate derivatives associated with this program do not meet hedge accounting requirements, changes in the fair value of both the customer derivatives and the offsetting derivatives are recognized directly in earnings.

The Bank also enters into risk participation agreements under which it may either assume or sell credit risk associated with a borrower’s performance under certain interest rate derivative contracts. In those instances where the Bank has assumed credit risk, it is not a direct counterparty to the derivative contract with the borrower and has entered into the risk participation agreement because it is a party to the related loan agreement with the borrower. In those instances in which the Bank has sold credit risk, it is the sole counterparty to the derivative contract with the borrower and has entered into the risk participation agreement because other banks participate in the related loan agreement. The Bank manages its credit risk under risk participation agreements by monitoring the creditworthiness of the borrower, based on the Bank’s normal credit review process.

The Bank also enters into certain derivative agreements as part of its mortgage banking activities. These agreements include interest rate lock commitments on prospective residential mortgage loans and forward commitments to sell these loans to investors on a best efforts delivery basis.

The Bank enters into foreign exchange forward derivative agreements, primarily forward foreign currency contracts, with commercial banking customers to facilitate their risk management strategies. The Bank manages its risk exposure from such transactions by entering into offsetting agreements with unrelated financial institutions. Because the foreign exchange forward contract derivatives associated with this program do not meet hedge accounting requirements, changes in the fair value of both the customer derivatives and the offsetting derivatives are recognized directly in earnings.

The Company is a member of Visa USA. During the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company sold the majority of its Visa Class B holdings, at which time it entered into a derivative agreement with the purchaser whereby the Company will make or receive cash payments whenever the conversion ratio of the Visa Class B shares into Visa Class A shares is adjusted. The conversion ratio changes when Visa deposits funds to a litigation escrow account established by Visa to pay settlements for certain litigation, for which Visa is indemnified by Visa USA members. The Company is also required to make periodic financing payments to the purchaser until all of Visa’s covered litigation matters are resolved. Thus, the derivative contract extends until the end of Visa’s covered litigation matters, the timing of which is uncertain.

The contract includes a contingent accelerated termination clause based on the credit ratings of the Company. At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 the fair value of the liability associated with this contract was ~~$6.9~~$6.6 million and $7.3 million, respectively. Refer to Note 15 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments for discussion of the valuation inputs for this derivative liability.

The effects of derivative instruments on the consolidated statements of income for the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019 and 2018 are presented in the table below. For the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019 and 2018, the reduction of interest income attributable to cash flow hedges includes amortization of accumulated other comprehensive loss that resulted from termination of five interest rate swap contracts.

Certain of the Bank’s derivative instruments contain provisions allowing the financial institution counterparty to terminate the contracts in certain circumstances, such as a downgrade of the Bank’s credit ratings below specified levels, a default by the Bank on its indebtedness, or the failure of the Bank to maintain specified minimum regulatory capital ratios or its regulatory status as a well-capitalized institution. These derivative agreements also contain provisions regarding the posting of collateral by each party. At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019, the Company was not in violation of any such provisions.

The Bank’s derivative instruments with certain counterparties contain legally enforceable netting provisions that allow for net settlement of multiple transactions to a single amount, which may be positive, negative, or zero. Agreements with certain bilateral counterparties require both parties to maintain collateral in the event that the fair values of derivative instruments exceed established exposure thresholds. For centrally cleared derivatives, the Company is subject to initial margin posting and daily variation margin exchange with the central clearinghouses. Offsetting information in regards to all derivative assets and liabilities, including accrued interest, subject to these master netting agreements at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 is presented in the following tables.

The Company has excess collateral compared to total exposure due to initial margin requirements for day-to-day rate volatility.

Common shares outstanding excludes treasury shares totaling 0.8 million at June 30, 2019 and 0.9 million at ~~March 31, 2019 and~~ December 31, 2018, with a first-in-first-out cost basis of ~~$16.6~~$14.2 million and $18.5 million at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Shares outstanding also excludes unvested restricted share awards totaling 1.3 million at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

On May 24, 2018, the Company’s board of directors approved a stock buyback program that authorized the repurchase of up to 5%, or approximately 4.3 million shares, of its outstanding common stock.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income or Loss (“AOCI”) is reported as a component of stockholders’ equity. AOCI can include, among other items, unrealized holding gains and losses on securities available for sale (“AFS”), including the Company’s share of unrealized gains and losses reported by a partnership accounted for under the equity method, gains and losses associated with pension or other post-retirement benefits that are not recognized immediately as a component of net periodic benefit cost, and gains and losses on derivative instruments that are designated as, and qualify as, cash flow hedges. Net unrealized gains and losses on AFS securities reclassified as securities held to maturity (“HTM”) also continue to be reported as a component of AOCI and will be amortized over the estimated remaining life of the securities as an adjustment to interest income. Subject to certain thresholds, unrealized losses on employee benefit plans will be reclassified into income as pension and post-retirement costs are recognized over the remaining service period of plan participants. Accumulated gains or losses on the cash flow hedge of the variable rate loans described in Note 7 will be reclassified into income over the life of the hedge. Accumulated other comprehensive loss resulting from the terminated interest rate

swaps will be amortized over the remaining maturities of the designated instruments. Gains and losses within AOCI are net of deferred income taxes, where applicable.

The following table shows the line items of the consolidated statements of income affected by amounts reclassified from AOCI.

The Company calculates earnings per share using the two-class method. The two-class method allocates net income to each class of common stock and participating security according to common dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings. Participating securities consist of nonvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents.

A summary of the information used in the computation of earnings per common share follows.

Potential common shares consist of stock options, nonvested performance-based awards, and nonvested restricted share awards deferred under the Company’s nonqualified deferred compensation plan. These potential common shares do not enter into the calculation of diluted earnings per share if the impact would be antidilutive, i.e., increase earnings per share or reduce a loss per share. Weighted average antidilutive potential common shares totaled ~~1,281~~14,150 and 14,183 for the three and six months ended ~~March 31, 2019.~~June 30, 2019, respectively. There were no1,816 and 913 antidilutive potential common shares excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended ~~March 31, 2018.~~June 30, 2018, respectively.

The Company sponsors a qualified defined benefit pension plan, theHancock Whitney CorporationPension Plan (“Pension Plan”), covering certain eligible associates. Those hired or rehired by the Company prior to June 30, 2017 are eligible to participate; however, the accrued benefits of each participant in the Pension Plan whose combined age plus years of service as of January 1, 2018 totaled less than 55 were frozen asof January 1, 2018 and will not thereafter increase. The Company makes contributions tothe Pension Planin amounts sufficient to meet funding requirements set forth in federal employee benefit and tax laws, plus such additional amounts as the Company may determine tobe appropriate. During the first quarter of 2019, the Company made a discretionary contribution of $100 million to the Pension Plan. During the third quarter of 2018, the Company made a discretionary contribution of ~~$39~~ $39million to thePensionPlandesignated tothe 2017 plan year.

The Company also offers a defined contribution retirement benefit plan, the Hancock Whitney Corporation 401(k) Savings Plan (“401(k) Plan”), that covers substantially all associates who have been employed 60 days and meet a minimum age requirement and employment classification criteria. The Company matches 100% of the first 1% of compensation saved by a participant, and 50% of the next 5% of compensation saved. Newly eligible associates are automatically enrolled at an initial 3% savings rate unless the associate actively opts out of participation in the plan. Beginning January 1, 2018, the Company makes an additional basic contribution to associates hired or rehired after June 30, 2017 in an amount equal to 2% of the associate’s eligible compensation. For Pension Plan participants whose benefits were frozen as of January 1, 2018, the 401(k) Plan provides an enhanced Company contribution in the amount of 2%, 4% or 6% of such participant’s eligible compensation, based on the participant’s age and years of service with the Company. Participants vest in basic and enhanced Company contributions upon completion of three years of service.

The Company sponsors a nonqualified defined benefit plan covering certain legacy Whitney employees that was frozen as of December 31, 2012 and no future benefits are accrued under this plan.

The Company sponsors defined benefit postretirement plans for both legacy Hancock and legacy Whitney employees that provide health care and life insurance benefits. Benefits under the Hancock plan are not available to employees hired on or after January 1, 2000. Benefits under the Whitney plan are restricted to retirees who were already receiving benefits at the time of plan amendments in 2007 or active participants who were eligible to receive benefits as of December 31, 2007.

The Company maintains incentive compensation plans that provide for awards of share-based compensation to employees and directors. These plans have been approved by the Company’s shareholders. Detailed descriptions of these plans were included in Note 17 to the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

The Company’s restricted and performance-based share awards to certain employees and directors are subject to service requirements. A summary of the status of the Company’s nonvested restricted and performance-based share awards at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019 and changes during the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019, are presented in the following table.

				Weighted					Weighted

~~At March 31,~~As of June 30, 2019, there was ~~$51.0~~$47.3 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested restricted and performance shares expected to vest. This compensation is expected to be recognized in expense over a weighted average period of ~~3.3~~3.1 years. The total fair value of shares which vested during the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019 and 2018 was ~~$0.1~~$0.6 million and ~~$0.3~~$0.9 million, respectively.

During the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019, the Company granted 33,691 performance share awards subject to a total shareholder return (“TSR”) performance metric with a grant date fair value of $35.27 per share and 33,691 performance shares subject to an operating earnings per share performance metric with a grant date fair value of $32.15 per share to key members of executive management. The number of performance shares subject to TSR that ultimately vest at the end of the three-year performance period, if any, will be based on the relative rank of the Company’s three-year TSR among the TSRs of a peer group of 42 regional banks. The fair

value of the performance shares subject to TSR at the grant date was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation method. The number of performance shares subject to core earnings per share that ultimately vest will be based on the Company’s attainment of certain operating earnings per share goals over the two-year performance period. The maximum number of performance shares that could vest is 200% of the target award. Compensation expense for these performance shares is recognized on a straight line basis over the three-year service period.

In the normal course of business, the Bank enters into financial instruments, such as commitments to extend credit and letters of credit, to meet the financing needs of its customers. Such instruments are not reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements until they are funded, although they expose the Bank to varying degrees of credit risk and interest rate risk in much the same way as funded loans. Under regulatory capital guidelines, the Company and Bank must include unfunded commitments meeting certain criteria in risk-weighted capital calculations.

Commitments to extend credit include revolving commercial credit lines, nonrevolving loan commitments issued mainly to finance the acquisition and development or construction of real property or equipment, and credit card and personal credit lines. The availability of funds under commercial credit lines and loan commitments generally depends on whether the borrower continues to meet credit standards established in the underlying contract and has not violated other contractual conditions. Loan commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee by the borrower. Credit card and personal credit lines are generally subject to cancellation if the borrower’s credit quality deteriorates. A number of commercial and personal credit lines are used only partially or, in some cases, not at all before they expire, and the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements of the Company.

A substantial majority of the letters of credit are standby agreements that obligate the Bank to fulfill a customer’s financial commitments to a third party if the customer is unable to perform. The Bank issues standby letters of credit primarily to provide credit enhancement to its customers’ other commercial or public financing arrangements and to help them demonstrate financial capacity to vendors of essential goods and services.

The contract amounts of these instruments reflect the Company’s exposure to credit risk. The Company undertakes the same credit evaluation in making loan commitments and assuming conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments and may require collateral or other credit support. The following table presents a summary of the Company’s off-balance sheet financial instruments as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

	March 31,		December 31,		June 30,		December 31,

The Company is party to various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Management does not believe that loss contingencies, if any, arising from pending litigation and regulatory matters will have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or liquidity of the Company.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The FASB’s guidance also establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to these valuation techniques used to measure fair value, giving preference to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (“level 1”) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs such as a reporting entity’s own data (“level 3”). Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, observable inputs other than quoted prices, such as interest rates and yield curves, and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

The following tables present for each of the fair value hierarchy levels the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis in the consolidated balance sheets at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

Securities classified as level 2 include obligations of U.S. Government agencies and U.S. Government-sponsored agencies, residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations that are issued or guaranteed by U.S. government agencies, and state and municipal bonds. The level 2 fair value measurements for investment securities are obtained quarterly from a third-party pricing service that uses industry-standard pricing models. Substantially all of the model inputs are observable in the marketplace or can be supported by observable data.

The Company invests only in securities of investment grade quality with a targeted duration, for the overall portfolio, generally between two and five and a half years. Company policies generally limit investments to U.S. agency securities and municipal securities determined to be investment grade according to an internally generated score which generally includes a rating of not less than “Baa” or its equivalent by a nationally recognized statistical rating agency.

For the Company’s derivative financial instruments designated as hedges and those under the customer interest rate program, the fair value is obtained from a third-party pricing service that uses an industry-standard discounted cash flow model that relies on inputs, LIBOR swap curves, Overnight Index swap rate curves, observable in the marketplace. To comply with the accounting guidance, credit valuation adjustments are incorporated in the fair values to appropriately reflect nonperformance risk for both the Company and the counterparties. Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value these derivative instruments fall within level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit value adjustments utilize level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads. The Company has determined that the impact of the credit valuation adjustments is not significant to the overall valuation of these derivatives. As a result, the Company has classified its derivative valuations for these instruments in level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The Company’s policy is to measure counterparty credit risk quarterly for all derivative instruments subject to master netting arrangements consistent with how market participants would price the net risk exposure at the measurement date.

The Company also has certain derivative instruments associated with the Bank’s mortgage-banking activities. These derivative instruments include interest rate lock commitments on prospective residential mortgage loans and forward commitments to sell these loans to investors on a best efforts delivery basis. The fair value of these derivative instruments is measured using observable market prices for similar instruments and is classified as a level 2 measurement.

The Company’s Level 3 liability consists of a derivative contract with the purchaser of 192,163 shares of Visa Class B common stock. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company retains the risks associated with the ultimate conversion of the Visa Class B common shares into shares of Visa Class A common stock, such that the counterparty will be compensated for any dilutive adjustments to the conversion ratio and the Company will be compensated for any anti-dilutive adjustments to the ratio. The agreement also requires periodic payments by the Company to the counterparty calculated by reference to the market price of Visa Class A common shares at the time of sale and a fixed rate of interest that steps up once after the eighth scheduled quarterly payment. The fair value of the liability is determined using a discounted cash flow methodology. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement are the Company’s own assumptions about estimated changes in the conversion rate of the Visa Class B common shares into Visa Class A common shares, the date on which such conversion is expected to occur and the estimated growth rate of the Visa Class A common share price. Refer to Note 7 – Derivatives for information about the derivative contract with the counterparty.

The Company believes its valuation methods for its assets and liabilities carried at fair value are appropriate; however, the use of different methodologies or assumptions, particularly as applied to Level 3 assets and liabilities, could have a material effect on the computation of their estimated fair values.

Changes in Level 3 Fair Value Measurements and Quantitative Information about Level 3 Fair Value Measurements

The table below presents a rollforward of the amounts on the consolidated balance sheets for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019 and the year ended December 31, 2018 for financial instruments of a material nature that are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy and are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

The table below provides an overview of the valuation techniques and significant unobservable inputs used in those techniques to measure the financial instrument measured on a recurring basis and classified within Level 3 of the valuation.

The Company’s policy is to recognize transfers between valuation hierarchy levels as of the end of a reporting period. There were no transfers between levels during the periods presented.

Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Collateral-dependent impaired loans are level 2 assets measured at the fair value of the underlying collateral based on independent third-party appraisals that take into consideration market-based information such as recent sales activity for similar assets in the property’s market.

Other real estate owned and foreclosed assets, including both foreclosed property and surplus banking property, are level 3 assets that are adjusted to fair value, less estimated selling costs, upon transfer to other real estate owned. Subsequently, other real estate owned is carried at the lower of carrying value or fair value less estimated selling costs. Fair values are determined by sales agreement or third-party appraisals as discounted for estimated selling costs, information from comparable sales, and marketability of the property.

The fair value information presented below is not as of the period end, rather it was as of the date the fair value adjustment was recorded during the twelve months for each of the dates presented below, and excludes nonrecurring fair value measurements of assets no longer on the balance sheet.

The following tables present the Company’s financial assets that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis for each of the fair value hierarchy levels.

Accounting guidance from the FASB requires the disclosure of estimated fair value information about certain on- and off-balance sheet financial instruments, including those financial instruments that are not measured and reported at fair value on a recurring basis. The significant methods and assumptions used by the Company to estimate the fair value of financial instruments are discussed below.

Cash, Short-Term Investments and Federal Funds Sold – For these short-term instruments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Securities – The fair value measurement for securities available for sale was discussed earlier in the note. The same measurement techniques were applied to the valuation of securities held to maturity.

Loans, Net – The fair value measurement for certain impaired loans was discussed earlier in the note. For the remaining portfolio, fair values were generally determined by discounting scheduled cash flows using discount rates determined with reference to current market rates at which loans with similar terms would be made to borrowers of similar credit quality.

Loans Held for Sale – These loans are recorded at fair value and carried at the lower of cost or market. The carrying amount is considered a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Deposits – The accounting guidance requires that the fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, such as noninterest-bearing demand deposits, interest-bearing checking and savings accounts, be assigned fair values equal to amounts payable upon demand (“carrying amounts”). The fair value of fixed maturity certificates of deposit is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

Securities Sold under Agreements to Repurchase, Federal Funds Purchased, and FHLB Borrowings – For these short-term liabilities, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Long-Term Debt – The fair value is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows using current market rates at which debt with similar terms could be obtained.

Derivative Financial Instruments – The fair value measurement for derivative financial instruments was discussed earlier in the note.

The following tables present the estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments by fair value hierarchy levels and the corresponding carrying amounts:

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842),” to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. With the exception of short-term leases, lessees are required to recognize a lease liability representing the lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis, and a right-of-use asset representing the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term upon adoption. Lessor accounting was largely unchanged under the new guidance, except for clarification of the definition of initial direct costs which provided additional guidance on the timing of recognition of those costs. Subsequent to the issuance of this update, the FASB issued three additional ASUs that provide codification improvements and certain transition elections, including ASU 2018-11, which permits an additional transition method whereby an entity may elect to record a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. The Company was required to and did adopt the standard effective January 1, 2019, using the modified retrospective transition method permitted by

ASU 2018-11. Thus, the Company’s reporting for the comparative period presented in the financial statements and disclosures continues to be in accordance with GAAP Topic 840. Upon adoption, the Company ~~recorded~~recorded a gross-up of assets and liabilities in its Consolidated Balance Sheet, with approximately ~~$116~~$116 million for right of use assets and ~~$131~~$131 million of lease payment obligations offset by the elimination of ~~$15~~$15 million of existing lease incentive and other deferred rent liabilities. Accounting for leases in accordance with Topic 842 has not had a material impact upon the Company’s consolidated results of operations, and is not expected to in future periods. Refer to Note 5 – Operating Leases for further information related to operating lease accounting policy, practical expedient elections for adoption and operating leasing information at adoption and as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019.

In April 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-04, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments.” The Update provides clarification and correction to certain areas of previously issued ASUs concerning financial instruments (2016-01, 2016-13 and 2017-12). The FASB does not expect the provisions contained in this Update to have a significant effect on current accounting practice. Effective dates for adoption of this Update’s provisions vary in accordance with the effective dates and adoption status of the amended ASUs. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adoption of this guidance, but it is not expected to have a material impact upon its financial position and results of operations.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14, “Compensation – Retirement Benefits – Defined Benefit Plans – General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans.” The amendments in this Update modify certain disclosure requirements by removing disclosures that are no longer considered cost beneficial, clarifying specific requirements of disclosures, and adding disclosure requirements identified as relevant. The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020 for public business entities, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adoption of this guidance upon its pension and postretirement plan disclosures. Adoption of this guidance will have no impact upon the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement.” The amendments in this Update modify certain disclosure requirements on fair value measurements set forth in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements. In addition, the amendments in this Update eliminate the phrase “an entity shall disclose at a minimum” to promote the appropriate exercise of discretion by entities when considering fair value measurement disclosures to clarify that materiality is an appropriate consideration of entities and their auditors when evaluating disclosure requirements. The amendments in this Update are effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 31, 2019, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adoption of this guidance upon its fair value measurements disclosures. Adoption of this guidance will have no impact upon the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” to improve financial reporting by requiring timelier recording of credit losses on loans and other financial instruments held by financial institutions and other organizations. The ASU, more commonly referred to as Current Expected Credit Losses, or CECL, requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Financial institutions and other organizations will now use forward-looking information to better inform their credit loss estimates. Many of the loss estimation techniques currently applied will still be permitted, although the inputs to those techniques will change to reflect the full amount of expected credit losses. Organizations will continue to use judgment to determine which loss estimation method is appropriate for their circumstances. In addition, the ASU amends the accounting for credit losses on debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. The ASU is effective for SEC filers for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019, with a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the year of adoption. Early application is permitted for all organizations for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is not planning to early adopt this guidance. The Company has engaged third party consultants and formed cross-functional working groups comprised of individuals from various areas including credit, finance, treasury, risk management and information technology for implementation. Five work streams have been created to develop the expected credit loss models; execute system implementation; complete balance sheet scoping; ensure the design of effective internal controls surrounding new processes; and provide executive oversight of the project. The Company has completed the configuration of a vendor provided software solution for which testing and implementation is expected to be complete in ~~second~~the third quarter of 2019. Validation of models began in the first quarter of 2019 and is also expected to be completed during the ~~second~~third quarter of 2019. The Company plans to conduct parallel testing of the estimation process during the third and fourth quarters of 2019. While the Company has not yet quantified the financial impact of adoption, the expectation is that application of this guidance will result in an increase in the allowance for loan losses given the change in methodology from covering losses inherent in the portfolio to covering losses over the remaining expected life of the portfolio. Application of the guidance is also expected to result in the establishment of an allowance for credit loss on held to maturity debt securities. The amount of the increase in these allowances will be impacted by the portfolio composition and quality at the adoption date as well as economic conditions and forecasts at that time.

On April 30, 2019, the Company announced its entry to an Agreement and Plan of Merger providing for, among other things, the acquisition of MidSouth Bancorp, Inc. (“MidSouth”) (NYSE: MSL), parent company of MidSouth Bank, N.A. At March 31, 2019, MidSouth had approximately $1.7 billion in assets, including $0.9 billion of loans, and $1.4 billion of deposits. Under the terms of the agreement, each share of MidSouth common stock outstanding will convert, pursuant to a fixed conversion ratio, into the right to receive 0.2952 shares of the Company’s common stock. In addition, the merger agreement allows for the redemption of all of MidSouth’s outstanding preferred stock at closing, subject to receipt of applicable governmental approvals. The value of the stock-based consideration will be determined at the time of closing based on the fixed conversion ratio. The approximate transaction value based on an average of the Company’s share price at the date of the agreement, April 30, 2019, was $213 million. The acquisition is subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including the receipt of regulatory approvals and approval by the shareholders of MidSouth. The transaction is expected to close late in the third quarter of 2019.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning and protections of section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements we make in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in other reports or documents that we file from time to time with the SEC and include, but are not limited to, the following:

Also, any statement that does not describe historical or current facts is a forward-looking statement. These statements often include the words “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends,” “plans,” “forecast,” “goals,” “targets,” “initiatives,” “focus,” “potentially,” “probably,” “projects,” “outlook,” or similar expressions or future conditional verbs such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “would,” and “could.” Forward-looking statements are based upon the current beliefs and expectations of management and on information currently available to management. Our statements speak as of the date hereof, and we do not assume any obligation to update these statements or to update the reasons why actual results could differ from those contained in such statements in light of new information or future events.

Forward-looking statements are subject to significant risks and uncertainties. Investors are cautioned against placing undue reliance on such statements. Actual results may differ materially from those set forth in the forward looking statements. Additional factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements can be found in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 and in other periodic reports that we file with the SEC.

You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. We do not intend, and undertake no obligation, to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of differences in actual results, changes in assumptions or changes in other factors affecting such statements, except as required by law.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations include non-GAAP measures used to describe our performance. These non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered on a standalone basis or as a substitute for analyses of financial condition and results as reported under GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized and therefore, it may not be possible to compare these measures with other companies that present measures having the same or similar names. These disclosures should not be considered an alternative to GAAP.

A reconciliation of those measures to GAAP measures are provided within the Selected Financial Data section that appears later in this item. The following is a summary of these non-GAAP measures and an explanation as to why they are deemed useful.

Consistent with Securities and Exchange Commission Industry Guide 3, we present net interest income, net interest margin and efficiency ratios on a fully taxable equivalent (“te”) basis. The te basis adjusts for the tax-favored status of net interest income from certain loans and investments using a statutory federal tax rate of 21% to increase tax-exempt interest income to a taxable equivalent basis. We believe this measure to be the preferred industry measurement of net interest income, and that it enhances comparability of net interest income arising from taxable and tax-exempt sources.

We present certain additional non-GAAP financial measures to assist the reader with a better understanding of the Company’s performance period over period, as well as to provide investors with assistance in understanding the success management has experienced in executing its strategic initiatives. These non-GAAP measures may reference the concept “operating.” We use the term “operating” to describe a financial measure that excludes income or expense considered to be nonoperating in nature. Items identified as nonoperating are those that, when excluded from a reported financial measure, provide management or the reader with a measure that may be more indicative of forward-looking trends in our business.

We define Operating Revenue as net interest income (te) and noninterest income less nonoperating revenue. We define Operating Pre-Provision Net Revenue as operating revenue (te) less noninterest expense, excluding nonoperating items. Management believes that operating pre-provision net revenue is a useful financial measure because it enables investors and others to assess the Company’s ability to generate capital to cover credit losses through a credit cycle.

We define Operating Earnings as reported net income excluding nonoperating items net of income tax. We define Operating Earnings per Share as operating earnings expressed as an amount available to each common shareholder on a diluted basis.

On April 30, 2019, we announced our entry into an agreement to acquire MidSouth Bancorp, Inc. (“MidSouth”) (NYSE: MSL) in a stock-for-stock transaction. MidSouth Bank N.A., the wholly-owned banking subsidiary of MidSouth, operates 42 locations in Louisiana and Texas and had approximately $1.7 billion of assets, including $0.9 billion of loans, and $1.4 billion of deposits at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. At the closing, each share of MidSouth’s common stock will convert to the right to receive 0.2952 shares of our common stock. The merger agreement also allows for the redemption of MidSouth’s outstanding preferred stock at closing, subject to the receipt of applicable governmental approvals. The Company expects acquisition-related expenses to approximate $38 million in 2019 and expects the transaction to be accretive to income beginning in the first quarter of 2020. The transaction is expected to add approximately $0.13 to $0.15 to earnings once fully phased-in. The transaction provides the opportunity for both enhanced growth in several of our current markets, such as MidSouth’s home market of Lafayette, Louisiana, as well as opportunities for expansion into new markets in Louisiana and Texas. The acquisition is subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including the receipt of regulatory approvals and approval by the shareholders of MidSouth. The transaction is expected to close with a simultaneous systems conversion late in the third quarter of 2019.

Highlights of our ~~first~~second quarter 2019 results (compared to ~~fourth quarter 2018):~~

The ~~first~~second quarter of 2019 reflects ~~improvements~~an improvement in ~~the net interest margin and asset quality, two key areas of focus. During the fourth quarter of 2018, we restructured a portion of our investment and~~ loan portfolios whereby we sold certain lower yielding securities and loans and reinvested in higher yielding assets. The portfolio restructuring and other improvements in our earning asset mix, along with the December 2018 interest rate increase, contributedyield compared to the ~~expansion~~prior quarter despite a challenging rate environment as we continue to focus our growth in ~~the net interest margin.~~more granular loans with better spreads. Asset quality ~~improved~~continued to improve, with criticized commercial loans down in both the energy and nonenergy portfolios.

Net interest income (te) for the ~~first~~second quarter of 2019 was ~~$223.1~~$223.6 million, a ~~$1.6~~$0.5 million, or less than 1%, increase from the ~~fourth~~first quarter of ~~2018. Net~~2019. Compared to the second quarter of 2018, net interest income (te) for the ~~first~~second quarter of 2019 increased ~~$13.5~~$8.0 million, or ~~6%, compared to the first quarter of 2018.~~4%. The linked quarter increase is primarily attributable to an additional accrual day and an interest recovery on a ~~full quarter impact of the fourth quarter portfolio restructure and the December 2018 rate increase,~~legacy Whitney CRE credit, partially offset by ~~two fewer accrual days.~~higher deposit costs and premium amortization on the bond portfolio.

The net interest margin (te) for the second quarter of 2019 was ~~3.46~~relatively stable at 3.45 % ~~for~~despite the challenging rate environment, down 1 bp from the first quarter of ~~2019, up 7 bps from the fourth quarter of 2018.~~2019. Net interest margin (te) was ~~favorably~~negatively impacted by higher CD renewal rates, a change in the ~~late 2018~~funding mix, and higher prepayments on the bond portfolio, ~~restructuring. The restructuring~~ and ~~other improvements~~almost fully offset by interest recoveries and a favorable change in the earning asset ~~mix and~~mix. Interest recoveries on problem credits have favorably impacted the ~~recent~~net interest ~~rate increase resulted~~margin in ~~a 14 bp improvement in~~four out of the ~~earning asset yield, including increases in the loan yield of 13~~last five quarters, adding 3 bps bond portfolio yield of 7 bps, and short term investments yield of 17 bps. Partially offsetting the linked quarter improvement in the earning asset yield was the movement of our deposit and loan betas at differing intervals. The deposit and loan betas are defined as the amount by which deposit and loan costs change in response to the ~~movement in short-term interest rates. Our deposit beta moved from 31% to 50%~~second quarter of 2019 and 1 bp in the first quarter of 2019, while our loan beta moved from 40% to 54% over the same period. The movement in the deposit beta was influenced by a 20 bp increase in the cost of brokered CDs, and a 20 bp increase in the rate paid on public fund deposits. 2019.

Compared to the ~~first~~second quarter of 2018, the net interest margin (te) increased 95 bps, primarily due to an improvement in the earning asset mix and the net benefit from interest rate increases during 2018. Interest recoveries impacted the net interest margin by 1 bp compared to the second quarter of 2018.

The following tables detail the components of our net interest income (te) and net interest margin.

During the ~~first~~second quarter of 2019, we recorded a provision for loan losses of ~~$18.0~~$8.1 million, ~~up $9.9 million from the fourth quarter of 2019 and up $5.8~~down $10.0 million from the first quarter of 2019 and down $0.8 million from the second quarter of 2018. Included in the ~~current quarter’s~~first quarter 2019 provision iswas a $10.1 million charge-off related to the DC Solar credit discussed ~~below and a~~below. Excluding the impact of the DC Solar credit, provision expense was relatively flat ~~allowance~~ compared to the prior quarter. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, we recorded a total provision for loan losses of $26.1 million, up from $21.1 million in the same period in 2018.

The Company had a lease financing facility to DC Solar, a company that sold and managed mobile solar generators. In February 2019, the borrower filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection and we became aware of an affidavit from a Federal Bureau of Investigation special agent that alleged that this borrower was operating a potentially fraudulent Ponzi-type scheme and that the majority of mobile solar generators sold to investors and managed by the borrower and the majority of the related lease revenues claimed to have been received by the borrower may not have existed. The $10.1 million ~~charged-off~~charge-off taken in the first quarter represents the majority of our exposure to this borrower. ~~There~~Management continues to believe there could be potential for ~~some~~ recovery in the future depending on our ability to sell or re-lease the solar units.

The second quarter 2019 provision includes net charge-offs totaling ~~$17.9~~$7.2 million, which represents ~~0.36%~~0.14% of average total loans on an annualized basis, compared to 0.16% in the first quarter, ~~of 2019, or 0.16%~~ when adjusted to exclude the DC Solar charge-off, ~~compared to net charge-offs of $28.1 million, or 0.56 % of average total loans~~and 0.11% in the ~~fourth~~second quarter of 2018.

The discussion of Allowance for Loan Losses and Asset Quality later in this Item provides additional information on changes in the allowance for loan losses and general credit quality.

Noninterest income totaled ~~$70.5~~$79.3 million for the ~~first~~second quarter of 2019, ~~down $4.0~~up $8.7 million, or 5% from the fourth quarter of 2018 and up $4.3 million, or 6%, compared to the first quarter of 2018. Excluding nonoperating items related to a portfolio restructure in the fourth quarter of 2018 and a loss on the sale of a subsidiary in the first quarter of 2018, noninterest income was down $3.4 million, or 5% from the fourth quarter of 2018 and up $3.1 million, or 5%12%, from the first quarter of 2019 and up $10.4 million, or 15%, compared to the second quarter of 2018. The ~~decrease~~increase from the prior quarter was primarily driven by ~~decreases due to seasonality, market conditions~~income from our specialty business lines, including derivatives, bank-owned life insurance (BOLI) and ~~fewer~~small business ~~days in~~investment companies (SBIC), the ~~quarter discussed in more detail below.~~impact of an additional business day on card activity and service charges, and seasonal trust fees. The increase compared to the ~~first~~second quarter of 2018 was largely driven by an increase in trust fees following the trust and asset management acquisition, as well as higher ~~bank~~ card fees and ~~ATM fees.~~ derivative income.

The components of operating and nonoperating noninterest income are presented in the following table for the indicated periods. The nonoperating item for the six months ended June 30, 2018 relates to the loss on the sale of our consumer finance subsidiary in March 2018.

The following discussion of the components of operating expense excludes nonoperating items for each period.

Personnel expense totaled ~~$103.7~~$106.6 million for the ~~first~~second quarter of 2019, ~~down $1.2~~up $2.9 million, or 1%3%, compared to the prior quarter, primarily due to ~~two fewer~~an additional payroll ~~days in~~day and a full quarter impact of annual merit increases. Compared to the ~~quarter.

The increase compared to the prior quarter is largely due to ~~higher depreciation expense on furniture and equipment following~~annual insurance payments in the second quarter of 2019. The increase compared to the second quarter of 2018 is largely attributable to both the move of the New Orleans regional ~~headquarters. The increase compared to first quarter of 2018 is attributable to both the move of the regional~~ headquarters and ~~an increase in depreciation of new signage following~~ the ~~Company’s rebranding.~~trust and asset management acquisition.

Data processing expense was ~~$19.3~~$20.1 million for the ~~first~~second quarter of 2019, up $0.8 million, or ~~5%, from the fourth quarter of 2018, and up $3.0 million, or 18%~~4%, from the first quarter of 2019, and up $2.8 million, or 16%, from the second quarter of 2018. The increase from the second quarter of 2018 was primarily due to additional processing cost related to the acquired trust and asset management business and recent investment in new technologies.

Professional ~~service~~services expense totaled ~~$8.2~~$9.7 million in the ~~first~~second quarter of 2019, ~~down $1.2~~up $1.5 million, or ~~13%~~18%, compared to both the previous quarter and ~~up $0.3 million, or 4% compared to~~ the same ~~quarter last year.~~period in 2018.

Deposit insurance and regulatory fees and corporate value and franchise taxes were ~~$9.4~~$9.0 million, ~~a decrease of $0.2~~down $0.5 million, or ~~2%, from the fourth quarter of 2018 and down $1.9 million, or 17%~~5%, from the first quarter of 2019 and down $3.0 million, or 25%, from the second quarter of 2018. ~~Deposit insurance and regulatory fees and corporate value and franchise taxes were down~~The decrease from both ~~quarter over~~the prior quarter and ~~year over year~~the same period in 2018 is primarily due to a reduction in the risk-based deposit insurance assessment fees, with the ~~year-over-year~~year over year variance also favorably impacted by the elimination of the quarterly deposit insurance fund surcharge.

Business development-related expenses (including advertising, travel, ~~and~~ entertainment and contributions) were ~~$6.9~~$7.3 million for the second quarter of 2019, up $0.5 million, or 7%, from the first quarter of 2019 ~~down $1.4~~and up $0.5 million, or ~~17%~~8%, from the ~~fourth quarter of 2018 and up $1.0 million, or 16%, from the first~~second quarter of 2018.

All other expenses, excluding amortization of intangibles, ~~and nonoperating expense items,~~ totaled ~~$7.4~~$8.1 million for the ~~first~~second quarter of 2019, ~~down $0.3~~up $0.8 million, or ~~4%, from the fourth quarter of 2018, and up $0.6 million, or 8%~~10%, from the first quarter of 2019, and up $0.9 million, or 13%, from the second quarter of 2018. The ~~variances~~increase compared to prior quarter ~~and prior year were~~was due to higher other miscellaneous expense, which includes operational losses that can vary period to period. The increase compared to the same period in 2018 was largely driven by changes in tax credit investment expense and the net credit ~~for~~in other retirement expense.

For the first six months of 2019, noninterest expense was $359.3 million, an increase of $4.1 million, or 1%, from the same period in 2018. Nonoperating expense for the first half of 2018 totaled $21.7 million, including costs associated with the brand consolidation, acquisition of the trust and asset management business, a charge related to the restructure of our bank-owned life insurance contracts, as well as a one-time all hands bonus and other miscellaneous ~~expense.~~items. Excluding nonoperating items, noninterest expense was up $25.7

million, or 8%, from the first half of 2018. Personnel expense totaled $210.3 million, up $17.1 million, or 9%. Occupancy and equipment expenses totaled $34.0 million for the first six months of 2018, up $4.2 million, or 14%. Data processing expense was $39.4 million, an increase of $5.8 million, or 17%. Professional service expense was $17.8 million for the first half of 2019, up $1.8 million or 11%. Deposit insurance and regulatory fees and corporate value and franchise taxes were down $4.9 million, or 21%. Business development-related expenses were $14.2 million, up $1.5 million, or 12%. All other expenses, excluding amortization of intangibles, were up $1.5 million, or 11%. Noninterest expense variances when comparing the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 are in large part attributable to the same factors that contributed to variances between the second quarters of 2019 and 2018, as described above.

The effective income tax rate for the ~~first~~second quarter of 2019 was approximately ~~17.6%~~17.9%, compared to ~~7.9% in the fourth quarter of 2018 and 18.5%~~17.6% in the first quarter of ~~2018. The effective tax rate was lower~~2019 and 18.3% in the ~~fourth~~second quarter of 2018 primarily due to the $9.9 million income tax benefit attributable to the 2017 tax savings initiatives implemented following the passage of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“Tax Act”), which, among other things, lowered the corporate federal income tax rate from 35% to 21%. The fourth quarter 2018 effective tax rate excluding impact of the tax savings initiatives would have been 17.5%, which is comparable to the first quarter 2019 effective tax rate.2018. Management expects the effective tax rate for 2019 will be in the range of 17%~~-19%~~ to 19% based on current forecasts.

Our effective tax rate has historically varied from the federal statutory rate primarily because of tax-exempt income and tax credits. Interest income on bonds issued by or loans to state and municipal governments and authorities, and earnings from the life insurance contract program are the major components of tax-exempt income. The main source of tax credits has been investments in tax-advantaged securities and tax credit projects. These investments are made primarily in the markets the Company serves and are directed at tax credits issued under the Qualified Zone Academy Bonds (“QZAB”), Qualified School Construction Bonds (“QSCB”) as well as Federal and State New Market Tax Credit (“NMTC”) programs. The investments generate tax credits, which reduce current and future taxes and are recognized when earned as a benefit in the provision for income taxes. The Tax Act repealed the provision related to tax credit bonds effective for bonds issued after December 31, 2017.

We have invested in NMTC projects through investments in our own Community Development Entity (“CDE”), as well as other unrelated CDEs. Federal tax credits from NMTC investments are recognized over a seven-year period, while recognition of the benefits from state tax credits varies from three to five years.

Based on tax credit investments that have been made to date and those anticipated to be made utilizing the remaining portion of our $50 million NMTC allocation award received in 2018, we expect to realize benefits from federal and state tax credits over the next three years totaling $7.5 million, $5.6 million and $4.9 million for 2020, 2021 and 2022, respectively. We intend to continue making investments in tax credit projects. However, our ability to access new credits will depend upon, among other factors, federal and state tax policies and the level of competition for such credits.

The following table reconciles reported income tax expense to that computed at the statutory federal tax rate for the indicated periods.

Liquidity management is focused on ensuring that funds are available to meet the cash flow requirements of our depositors and borrowers, while also meeting the operating, capital and strategic cash flow needs of the Company, the Bank and other subsidiaries. We develop liquidity management strategies and measure and monitor liquidity risk as part of our overall asset/liability management process.

The asset portion of the balance sheet provides liquidity primarily through loan principal repayments, maturities and repayments of investment securities and occasional sales of various assets. Short-term investments such as federal funds sold, securities purchased under agreements to resell and interest-bearing deposits with the Federal Reserve Bank or with other commercial banks are additional sources of liquidity to meet cash flow requirements. Free securities represent unpledged securities that can be sold or used as collateral for borrowings, and include unpledged securities assigned to short-term dealer repurchase agreements or to the Federal Reserve Bank discount window. Management has established an internal target for the ratio of free securities to total securities to be 20% or more. As shown in the table below, our ratio of free securities to total securities was 40.10% at June 30, 2019, compared to 33.57% at March 31, 2019 ~~compared to 41.39%~~and 49.31% at ~~December 31, 2018 and 43.35% at March 31,~~June 30, 2018. The total of pledged securities at June 30, 2019 was $3.5 billion, down $278.9 million from March 31, ~~2019 was $3.7 billion, up $391.2 million from December 31, 2018.~~2019. Securities are pledged as collateral related to public funds and repurchase agreements. Total pledged securities ~~of $5.6 billion at~~were up $148.6 million compared to March 31, 2019 ~~were down $93.1 million compared to December 31, 2018~~ and ~~$297.7~~$362.0 million lower than at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2018.

The liability portion of the balance sheet provides liquidity mainly through the Company’s ability to use cash sourced from various customers’ interest-bearing and noninterest-bearing deposit and sweep accounts. At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019, deposits totaled ~~$23.4~~$23.2 billion, ~~an increase~~a decrease of ~~$230.1~~$144.3 million, or 1%, from ~~December~~March 31, ~~2018~~2019 and an increase of ~~$894.6 million,~~$1.0 billion, or 4%5%, from ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2018. Core deposits consist of total deposits excluding certificates of deposit (“CDs”) of $250,000 or more and brokered deposits. Core deposits totaled ~~$21.0~~$20.7 billion at June 30, 2019, a decrease of $289.3 million from March 31, 2019, and an increase of ~~$93.6~~$816.2 million from ~~December 31, 2018, and $591.2 million from March 31,~~June 30, 2018. The ratio of core deposits to total deposits was 89.30% at June 30, 2019, compared to 89.98% at March 31, 2019 ~~compared to 90.47%~~and 89.65% at ~~December31, 2018 and 90.94% at March 31,~~June 30, 2018. Brokered deposits totaled ~~$1.2~~$1.3 billion as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019, an increase of ~~$21.2 million compared to December 31, 2018 and $74.9~~$15 million compared to March 31, 2019 and a decrease of $105.2 million compared to June 30, 2018. The use of brokered deposits as a funding source is subject to certain policies regarding the amount, term and interest rate.

Purchases of federal funds, securities sold under agreements to repurchase and other short-term borrowings from customers provide additional sources of liquidity to meet short-term funding requirements. Besides funding from customer sources, the Bank has a line of credit with the FHLB that is secured by blanket pledges of certain mortgage loans. At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019, the Bank had borrowings of approximately ~~$900 million~~$1.0 billion and had approximately $3.8 billion available under this line. The Bank also has unused borrowing capacity at the Federal Reserve’s discount window of approximately ~~$2.7~~$2.6 billion; there were no outstanding borrowings with the Federal Reserve at any date during any period covered by this report.

Wholesale funds, which are comprised of short-term borrowings, long-term debt and brokered deposits were ~~13.61%~~15.13% of core deposits at June 30, 2019, compared to 13.61% at March 31, 2019 ~~compared to 14.53%~~and 19.93% at ~~December 31, 2018 and 14.32% at March 31,~~June 30, 2018. The linked quarter ~~decrease~~increase in wholesale funds was primarily related to ~~decreases~~increases in repurchase agreements and FHLB borrowings. The year over year decrease in wholesale funds was primarily related to decreases in FHLB borrowings ~~long-term debt~~ and ~~federal funds purchased,~~brokered certificates deposits, partially offset by ~~increases~~an increase in ~~brokered deposits and~~ repurchase agreements. The Company has established an internal target for wholesale funds to be less than 25% of core deposits.

Another key measure used to monitor our liquidity position is the loan-to-deposit ratio (average loans outstanding for the reporting period divided by average deposits outstanding). The loan-to-deposit ratio measures the amount of funds the Company lends for each dollar of deposits on hand. Our average loan-to-deposit ratio for the second quarter of 2019 was 87.09%, compared to 87.08% for the first quarter of 2019 ~~was 87.08%, compared to 88.09%~~and 86.84% for the ~~fourth quarter of 2018 and 86.32% for the first~~second quarter of 2018. Management has an established target range for the loan-to-deposit ratio of 87% to 89%. , which could be exceeded under certain circumstances.

Cash generated from operations is another important source of funds to meet liquidity needs. The consolidated statements of cash flows present operating cash flows and summarize all significant sources and uses of funds for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019 and 2018.

Dividends received from the Bank have been the primary source of funds available to the Parent for the payment of dividends to our stockholders and for servicing its debt. The liquidity management process takes into account the various regulatory provisions that can limit the amount of dividends the Bank can distribute to the Parent. The Parent targets cash and other liquid assets to provide liquidity in an amount sufficient to fund approximately six quarters of anticipated common stockholder dividends, but will temporarily operate below that level if a return to the target can be achieved in the near-term.

Stockholders’ equity totaled ~~$3.2~~$3.3 billion at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019, up ~~$109~~$128.3 million, or 4%, from ~~December~~March 31, ~~2018~~2019 and up ~~$295~~$389.4 million, or ~~10%~~13%, from ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2018. The tangible common equity ratio was ~~8.36~~8.75 % at June 30, 2019, compared to 8.36% at March 31, 2019 ~~compared to 8.02%~~and 7.76% at ~~December 31, 2018 and 7.80% at March 31,~~June 30, 2018. The increase in the tangible common equity ratio from ~~prior quarter~~both March 31, 2019 and June 30, 2018 is ~~due~~primarily attributable to ~~increases in~~ net tangible retained earnings and net gains on fair value adjustments of securities available for sale included in other accumulated comprehensive ~~income.~~income, partially offset by growth in tangible assets. The increase from ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2018 was ~~primarily related to the change in net tangible retained earnings and the reduction in accumulated other comprehensive losses, partially offset~~negatively impacted by ~~tangible asset growth and an increase in~~acquired intangible ~~assets related to acquisition transactions.~~assets. Management has established an internal target for the tangible common equity ratio of at least 8.00%; however, management will allow the tangible common equity ratio to drop below 8.00% on a temporary basis if it believes that the shortfall can be replenished through normal operations within a short time frame.

The regulatory capital ratios of the Company and the Bank as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019 ~~continued to improve and~~ remained well in excess of current regulatory minimum requirements. The Company and the Bank have been categorized as “well-capitalized” in the most recent notices received from our regulators. Both entities currently exceed all capital requirements of the Basel III ~~requirements, including the fully phased-in conservation buffer.~~requirements. Refer to the Supervision and Regulation section in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 for further discussion of our capital requirements.

The following table shows the regulatory capital ratios for the Company and the Bank as calculated under current rules for the indicated periods. ~~The Company’s and Bank’s regulatory filings for quarter ended March 31, 2018 were filed in the names of Hancock Holding Company and Whitney Bank, respectively.~~

On May 24, 2018, our board of directors approved a stock buyback program that authorized the repurchase of up to 5%, or approximately 4.3 million shares, of outstanding common stock. The approved program allows us to repurchase shares of our common stock either in the open market in compliance with Rule 10b-18 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or in privately negotiated transactions with non-affiliated sellers or as otherwise determined by the Company in one or more transactions, from time to time until December 31, 2019. The Company is not obligated to purchase any shares under this program and the board of directors may terminate or amend the program at any time prior to the expiration. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019, we had purchased 200,000 shares of our common stock at an average price of $41.30 per share under this program.

On ~~January 28,~~April 26, 2019, our board of directors declared the regular ~~first~~second quarter cash dividend at $0.27 per share, the same as the prior quarter. ~~The Company has paid uninterrupted quarterly dividends to shareholders since 1967.~~

Investment in securities totaled ~~$5.6~~$5.7 billion at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019, ~~down $93.1~~up $148.2 million, or ~~2%, from at December 31, 2018 and down $352.6 million, or 6%~~2.7%, from March 31, 2019 and down $388.1 million, or 6.3%, from June 30, 2018. At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019, securities available for sale totaled ~~$2.7~~$2.8 billion and securities held to maturity totaled $2.9 billion.

Our securities portfolio consists mainly of residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations that are issued or guaranteed by U.S. government agencies. We invest only in high quality investment grade securities with a targeted portfolio duration generally between two and five and a half years. At June 30, 2019, the average expected maturity of the portfolio was 5.41 years with an effective duration of 4.18 years and a nominal weighted-average yield of 2.75%. Management simulations indicate that the effective duration would increase to 4.55 years with a 100 bp increase in the yield curve and increase to 4.73 years with a 200 bp increase. At March 31, 2019, the average expected maturity of the portfolio was 5.52 years with an effective duration of 4.37 years and a nominal weighted-average yield of 2.75%. Management simulations indicate that the effective duration would increase to 4.59 years with a 100 bp increase in the yield curve and increase to 4.75 years with a 200 bp increase. At December 31, 2018, theThe average ~~expected~~ maturity of the portfolio at June 30, 2018 was ~~5.67~~6.09 years, with an effective duration ~~of 4.67~~was 4.89 years and athe nominal weighted-average yield ~~of 2.75%~~was 2.53%. The change in expected maturity, effective duration, and nominal weighted-average yield compared to prior quarter is primarily related to ~~securities~~ prepayments and maturities during the ~~first~~second quarter of 2019. Year-over-year metrics were impacted by the fourth quarter 2018 portfolio restructure.

Total loans at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019 were ~~$20.1~~$20.2 billion, up ~~$86.4~~$63.0 million, or less than 1%, from ~~December~~March 31, ~~2018,~~2019, and up ~~$1.0~~$0.8 billion, or ~~5.3%~~4.2%, from June 30, 2018.

Nonperforming assets totaled ~~$349.6~~$338.6 million at June 30, 2019, down $11.0 million from March 31, 2019, ~~down $3.1~~$14.0 million from December 31, 2018 and ~~$118.8~~$77.9 million from ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2018. Nonperforming loans decreased approximately ~~$3.9~~$11.3 million compared to ~~December~~March 31, ~~2018 with~~2019, due largely to a ~~continued~~ reduction in restructured accruing loans as a result of the return to a market structure for one of our energy ~~nonperforming loans of $15 million, partially offset by an increase in commercial nonenergy nonperforming loans of $11 million.~~credits as well as other net activity including both paydowns and new downgrades. Our nonperforming loans included ~~$117.8~~$101.3 million of accruing restructured loans, ~~or approximately one-third~~most of ~~total nonperforming loans, most within~~which are energy credits that endured challenges during the downturn in the energy cycle. Nonperforming assets as a percent of total loans, ORE and other foreclosed assets was ~~1.74%~~1.68% at June 30, 2019, down 6 bps from March 31, 2019, ~~down 2~~8 bps from December 31, 2018 and 7147 bps from ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2018.

Short-term liquidity investments, including interest-bearing bank deposits and federal funds sold, were ~~$163.8~~$151.1 million at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. This represents ~~an increase~~a decrease of ~~$52.7~~$12.7 million from ~~December 31, 2018~~March 30, 2019 and an increase of ~~$102.2~~$46.9 million from ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2018. These ~~assets are volatile~~asset levels vary on a daily basis depending upon movement in customer loan and deposit accounts. Average short-term investments of ~~$216.2~~$228.5 million for the second quarter of 2019 were up $12.3 million compared to the first quarter of 2019, ~~were up $10.4~~and $85.4 million compared to the ~~fourth quarter of 2018, and up $67.9 million compared to the first~~second quarter of 2018. Short-term liquidity assets are held to ensure funds are available to meet the cash flow needs of both borrowers and depositors.

Total deposits were ~~$23.4~~$23.2 billion at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019, ~~up $230.1~~down $144.3 million, or 1%, from ~~December~~March 31, ~~2018,~~2019, and up ~~$894.6 million,~~$1.0 billion, or 4%5%, from ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2018. Average deposits for the ~~first~~second quarter of 2019 were $23.1 billion, up ~~$616.0~~$23.4 million, or 3%less than 1%, from the ~~fourth~~first quarter of ~~2018~~2019 and up ~~$1.1~~$1.0 billion, or 5%, from the ~~first~~second quarter of 2018.

Noninterest-bearing demand deposits were ~~$8.2~~$8.1 billion at June 30, 2019, down $44.0 million, or 1%, from March 31, 2019, ~~down $340.4 million, or 4%, compared to December 31, 2018,~~ and down ~~$71.4~~$51.2 million, or 1%, ~~compared to March 31,~~from June 30, 2018. Noninterest-bearing demand deposits comprised 35% of total deposits at June 30, 2019 and March 31, 2019 and 37% at ~~December 31, 2018 and March 31,~~June 30, 2018.

Interest-bearing transaction and savings accounts of ~~$8.2~~$8.0 billion at June 30, 2019 decreased $189.4 million, or 2%, from March 31, 2019 and increased ~~$224~~$323.3 million, or 3%4%, ~~compared to December 31, 2018 and increased $165.4 million, or 2%, compared to March 31,~~from June 30, 2018, with the year-over-year increase mainly attributable to customer deposits assumed in the trust and asset management acquisition.

Interest-bearing public fund deposits totaled $3.2 billion at June 30, 2019, down $69.8 million, or 2%, from March 31, 2019, and up ~~$223.1~~$305.0 million, or 7%11%, from ~~December 31, 2018, primarily due to both new and enhanced business relationships, and up $121.6 million, or 4%, compared to March 31,~~June 30, 2018. Time deposits other than public funds totaled ~~$3.7~~$3.9 billion at June 30, 2019, up $159.0 million from March 31, 2019, ~~up $123.3 million from December 31, 2018,~~ driven primarily by promotional certificate of deposit offers across our markets and a ~~$21.2~~$15 million increase in brokered certificates of deposit. Time deposits other than public funds were up ~~$679.0~~$423.7 million, or ~~22.0%~~12.0%, ~~compared~~from June 30, 2018, largely due to ~~March 31, 2018, due largely~~ an increase in retail certificates of deposit. The growth in time deposits was impacted by $715 million of maturities during the second quarter of 2019 compared to $207 million in first quarter of 2019 and $251 million during the second quarter of 2018.

At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019, short-term borrowings totaled ~~$1.4~~$1.6 billion, ~~down $200.4~~up $252.9 million, or 18%, from ~~December~~March 31, ~~2018, as FHLB borrowings decreased $250.1 million and~~2019, with increases in securities sold under repurchase agreements of $152.8 million and FHLB borrowings increased ~~$49.7~~$100.0 million. Short-term borrowings decreased ~~$63.4~~$672.6 million from ~~March 31, 2018.~~

Average short-term borrowings of $1.7 billion in the first quarter of 2019 were down $645.4 million, or 28%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2018, and down $138.1 million, or 8%, compared to the first quarter ofJune 30, 2018. The decrease compared to ~~prior periods~~second quarter of 2018 was due in part to a portfolio restructure late in the fourth quarter where proceeds from the sale of loans and securities were used to pay down a portion of FHLB borrowings.

Average short-term borrowings of $1.6 billion in the second quarter of 2019 were down $67.1 million, or 4%, compared to the first quarter of 2019, and down $371.6 million, or 19%, compared to the second quarter of 2018.

Customer repurchase agreements and FHLB borrowings are the major sources of short-term borrowings. Customer repurchase agreements are offered mainly to commercial customers to assist them with their cash management strategies or to provide a temporary investment vehicle for their excess liquidity pending redeployment for corporate or investment purposes. While customer repurchase agreements provide a recurring source of funds to the Bank, amounts available will vary. FHLB borrowings are funds from the Federal Home Loan Bank that are collateralized by single family and commercial real estate loans included in the Bank’s loan portfolio, subject to specific criteria.

Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted the amended provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Codification Topic 842, “Leases,” using the modified retrospective approach, impacting the reporting and disclosures for operating leases. The core principle of Topic 842 is that a lessee should recognize in the statement of financial position a liability representing the present value of future lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset over the lease term, as well as the disclosure of key information about operating leasing arrangements. Upon adoption, the Company recorded a gross-up of assets and liabilities in its consolidated balance sheet, with approximately $116 million for right-of-use assets and $131 million of lease payment obligations offset by the elimination of $15 million of existing lease incentive and other deferred rent liabilities. Accounting for leases in accordance with Topic 842 has not had a material impact upon our consolidated results of operations, and is not expected to in future periods. Refer to Note 5 – Operating Leases for further information related to the operating lease accounting policy, practical expedient elections for adoption and operating leasing information at adoption.

In the normal course of business, the Bank enters into financial instruments, such as commitments to extend credit and letters of credit, to meet the financing needs of their customers. Such instruments are not reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements until they are funded, although they expose the Bank to varying degrees of credit risk and interest rate risk in much the same way as funded loans. Under regulatory capital guidelines, the Company and Bank must include unfunded commitments meeting certain criteria in risk-weighted capital calculations.

The contract amounts of these instruments reflect the Company's exposure to credit risk. The Company undertakes the same credit evaluation in making loan commitments and assuming conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments and may require collateral or other credit support.

The following table shows the commitments to extend credit and letters of credit at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019 according to expiration date.

There were no material changes or developments with respect to methodologies that the Company uses when applying what management believes are critical accounting policies and developing critical accounting estimates as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and with those generally practiced within the banking industry which require management to make estimates and assumptions about future events. Estimates are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, and the resulting estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of certain assets and liabilities not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Refer to Note 16 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this report.

Item 3. Quantitative and ~~Qualitative~~Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company’s net income is materially dependent on net interest income. The Company’s primary market risk is interest rate risk which stems from uncertainty with respect to absolute and relative levels of future market interest rates that affect financial products and services. In order to manage the exposures to interest rate risk, management measures the sensitivity of net interest income and cash flows under various market interest rate scenarios, establishes interest rate risk management policies and implements asset/liability management strategies designed to produce a relatively stable net interest margin under varying rate environments.

The following table presents an analysis of our interest rate risk as measured by the estimated changes in net interest income resulting from an instantaneous and sustained parallel shift in rates at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. Shifts are measured in 100 basis point increments in a range from -500 to +500 basis points from base case, with ~~-200~~-100 through +300 basis points presented in the table below. Our interest rate sensitivity modeling incorporates a number of assumptions including loan and deposit repricing characteristics, the rate of loan prepayments and other factors. The base scenario assumes that the current interest rate environment is held constant over a 24-month forecast period and is the scenario to which all others are compared in order to measure the change in net interest income. Policy limits on the change in net interest income under a variety of interest rate scenarios are approved by the Board. All policy scenarios assume a static volume forecast where the balance sheet is held constant, although other scenarios are modeled.

	Estimated Increase						Estimated Increase
	(Decrease) in NII						(Decrease) in NII
Change in Interest Rates	Year 1			Year 2			Year 1			Year 2
(basis points)
-200		(9.96	)%		(13.82	)%
-100		(4.27	)%		(5.69	)%		(4.26	)%		(6.21	)%
+100		3.10	%		3.92	%		3.10	%		4.30	%
+200		5.77	%		7.13	%		5.59	%		7.57	%
+300		8.12	%		9.80	%		7.80	%		10.35	%

The results indicate a general asset sensitivity across most scenarios driven primarily by repricing in variable rate loans and a funding mix which is composed of material volumes of non-interest bearing and lower rate sensitive deposits. When deemed prudent, management has taken actions to mitigate exposure to interest rate risk with on- or off-balance sheet financial instruments and intends to do so in the future. Possible actions include, but are not limited to, changes in the pricing of loan and deposit products, modifying the composition of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, and adding to, modifying or terminating existing interest rate swap agreements or other financial instruments used for interest rate risk management purposes.

Even if interest rates change in the designated amounts, there can be no assurance that our assets and liabilities would perform as anticipated. Additionally, a change in the U.S. Treasury rates in the designated amounts accompanied by a change in the shape of the U.S. Treasury yield curve would cause significantly different changes to net interest income than indicated above. Strategic management of our balance sheet and earnings is fluid and would be adjusted to accommodate these movements. As with any method of measuring interest rate risk, certain shortcomings are inherent in the methods of analysis presented above. For example, although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or periods to repricing, they may react in different degrees to changes in market interest rates. Also, the interest rates on certain types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate in advance of changes in market interest rates, while interest rates on other types may lag behind changes in market rates. Certain assets such as adjustable-rate loans have features which restrict changes in interest rates on a short-term basis and over the life of the asset. Also, the ability of many borrowers to service their debt may decrease in the event of an interest rate increase. We consider all of these factors in monitoring exposure to interest rate risk.

The foregoing disclosures related to our market risk should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements, related notes and management’s discussion and analysis included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, an evaluation was carried out by the Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, identified no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three month period ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

The Company, including subsidiaries, is party to various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. We do not believe that loss contingencies, if any, arising from pending litigation and regulatory matters will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or liquidity.

The Company disclosed risk factors in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. The risks described may not be the only risks facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that are currently considered to not be material also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and/or 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.
