MEMPHIS, Tenn., July 18, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- First Horizon National Corporation (NYSE:FHN) announced earnings of $102.7 million, or $.80 diluted earnings per share for second quarter 2005. This compares to 2004's second quarter earnings of $118.4 million, or $.92 diluted earnings per share. For the six months ended June 30, 2005, earnings were $211.9 million or $1.65 diluted earnings per share, compared to $237.7 million or $1.84 diluted earnings per share for 2004.

Second quarter 2004 earnings included the adoption of SAB No. 105, which prohibited the inclusion of estimated servicing cash flows within the valuation of interest rate lock commitments. Prior to that time, FHN included a portion of the value of the associated servicing cash flows when recognizing loan commitments at inception and throughout their lives. The adoption of SAB No. 105 created an accounting change in second quarter 2004 and lowered earnings by $8.4 million and diluted earnings per share by $0.04. While this impact was a one-time change and doesn't affect the ongoing economic value of the business, it can create quarterly volatility due to the timing of revenue recognition as experienced this quarter.

"With the exception of a timing issue related to mortgage revenue, second quarter came in basically flat to first quarter 2005 and in line with our expectations given the recent developments in the operating environment," said Ken Glass, Chairman and CEO. "The positive financial impact of the pick-up in mortgage originations due to higher refinance activity in the overall market will be felt in the third quarter while the related increase in impairment expense hit us in second quarter."

Glass continued, "Our fundamentals are strong, and we continue to make good strategic progress. The second half of 2005 should show growth over last year as earnings enhancements are implemented to offset the impact of today's flatter yield curve environment."

Return on average shareholders' equity and return on average assets were 19.6 percent and 1.14 percent, respectively, for second quarter 2005 compared to 25.5 percent and 1.75 percent for second quarter 2004. For the six months ended June 30, 2005, return on average shareholders' equity and return on average assets were 20.7 percent and 1.21 percent, respectively, compared to 25.5 percent and 1.83 percent for the same period in 2004.

Total assets were $37.2 billion and shareholders' equity was $2.2 billion on June 30, 2005, compared to $27.3 billion and $1.9 billion, respectively, on June 30, 2004.

PERFORMANCE HIGHLIGHTS

Retail/Commercial Banking

Pre-tax income for Retail/Commercial Banking increased 17 percent to $115.7 million for second quarter 2005, compared to $99.3 million for second quarter 2004. Retail/Commercial Banking contributed 77 percent of total pre-tax income in second quarter 2005 compared to 59 percent in second quarter 2004. Total revenues increased 16 percent to $334.5 million for second quarter 2005 compared to $288.7 million for second quarter 2004.

Net interest income increased 26 percent to $211.4 million in second quarter 2005 from $167.3 million in second quarter 2004. The increase in 2005's net interest income is primarily attributable to 20 percent total loan growth with commercial loans growing 31 percent to $8.5 billion from $6.5 billion and retail loans growing 11 percent to $9.3 billion from $8.3 billion. This growth resulted from expansion of the sales force which increased market share in the core bank, as well as cross-sell opportunities in FHN's national markets where we have a substantial mortgage presence. Total deposits increased 12 percent or $1.1 billion over second quarter 2004. Retail/Commercial Banking's net interest margin for second quarter 2005 was held stable compared to second quarter 2004 by minimizing loan rate spread compression caused by competitive pricing while successfully increasing spreads on deposits in conjunction with fed rate increases.

Noninterest income remained relatively flat at $123.1 million in second quarter 2005 compared to $121.4 million in second quarter 2004. Second quarter 2005 noninterest income included $8.4 million net revenue from sales and securitizations of real estate residential loans. This was reduced by $5.2 million resulting from a write-off of the net capitalized expenses on HELOC's held for sale that prepaid faster than anticipated. In second quarter 2004, noninterest income included revenue from loan sales and securitizations of $4.0 million. Merchant processing income increased 20 percent in second quarter 2005, or $3.8 million, reflecting increased volume from existing customers as well as an expanded customer base.

The provision for loan losses increased to $15.6 million in second quarter 2005 from $12.3 million last year as the loan portfolio has grown by 20 percent since second quarter 2004. During this time net charge-offs decreased to $10.3 million from $11.0 million. However, the ratio of allowance to total loans continued to decline as the risk profile of both the retail and commercial loan portfolios improved. The risk profile of the retail loan portfolio improved as the mix shifted to a greater concentration of high credit score products. The risk profile of the commercial loan portfolio improved as indicated by current lower levels of total watch and classified loans.

Noninterest expense was $203.2 million in second quarter 2005 compared to $177.1 million last year. The growth in noninterest expense was due to higher personnel and advertising costs which were largely attributable to national expansion initiatives. As total revenue grew 16 percent and noninterest expense grew 15 percent, the efficiency ratio improved to 60.7 percent in second quarter 2005 from 61.4 percent in second quarter 2004.

Mortgage Banking

Pre-tax income for Mortgage Banking decreased 22 percent to $38.0 million for second quarter 2005, compared to $48.8 million for second quarter 2004. Total revenues were $155.4 million in second quarter 2005, a decrease of 7 percent from $167.5 million in second quarter 2004.

Net interest income decreased 15 percent to $37.7 million in second quarter 2005 from $44.4 million in second quarter 2004 as the flattening of the yield curve resulted in compression of the spread on the warehouse. Spread on the warehouse was 2.66 percent in second quarter 2005 compared to 3.84 percent for the same period in 2004.

Noninterest income decreased 4 percent to $117.7 million in second quarter 2005 compared to $123.1 million in second quarter 2004. Noninterest income consists primarily of mortgage banking-related revenue, net of costs, from the origination and sale of mortgage loans, fees from mortgage servicing and mortgage servicing rights (MSR) net hedge gains or losses. Mortgage servicing noninterest income is net of amortization, impairment and other expenses related to MSR and related hedges.

Mortgage loan origination volumes in second quarter 2005 were $9.5 billion compared to $8.9 billion in 2004 driven by an increase in home purchase related originations, which grew 28 percent from second quarter 2004. This increase demonstrates FHN's success in executing its strategy to grow the purchase market and was the result of an expanded sales force which increased 20 percent and includes almost 2,000 relationship managers today. Refinance activity represented 37 percent of total originations during second quarter 2005 compared to 47 percent last year. Loans delivered into the secondary market decreased 8 percent to $8.7 billion. Net revenue from mortgage loans sold decreased 3 percent to $95.6 million from $99.1 million in second quarter 2004. Reflecting strong origination performance in the latter part of the quarter the warehouse and pipeline of mortgage products increased $.8 billion and $1.6 billion, respectively over second quarter 2004.

The mortgage-servicing portfolio grew 26 percent to $90.8 billion on June 30, 2005, from $72.2 billion on June 30, 2004, including approximately $11 billion of loans for which the servicing rights were acquired in 2004. Total fees associated with mortgage servicing increased 28 percent to $68.4 million reflecting this growth. In addition, the growth in the servicing portfolio and rising interest rates led to an 18 percent increase in capitalized mortgage servicing rights and an 18 percent, or $6.8 million, increase in amortization expense compared to second quarter 2004. The total $8.1 million decrease in net servicing revenues consists of these and several other factors, including an unfavorable $23.9 million impact from MSR impairment charges. This unfavorable variance is primarily a result of a $15.4 million reduction in impairment in second quarter 2004 resulting from the restratification of the servicing portfolio tranches due to the impact that rising interest rates had on the predominant risk characteristics of the MSR portfolio at that time. In addition, net servicing revenues were impacted by an increase of $7.8 million in net hedge gains.

Noninterest expense remained stable at $117.2 million in second quarter 2005 compared to $118.7 million in second quarter 2004 as expense efficiencies were offset by the increased production.

Capital Markets

Pre-tax earnings declined from $25.0 million in second quarter 2004 to $6.9 million in second quarter 2005 due to a reduction in fixed income securities sales to depository customers, net of a related decline in commissions and incentives, and a decrease in net interest income. Significant uncertainties within the investment community regarding interest rates and other economic factors continue to cause fixed income investors to reduce their purchases. Total revenues were $89.6 million in second quarter 2005, a decrease of 13 percent from $103.0 million in second quarter 2004.

Revenues from fixed income sales to depository investors fell $12.4 million while non-depository revenues increased $5.0 million or 21 percent. Non-depository revenues increased to 29 percent of total noninterest income in second quarter 2005 from 23 percent in second quarter 2004, primarily as a result of the acquisition of the fixed income business of Spear, Leeds and Kellogg (SLK) in first quarter 2005. Revenues from other fee sources include fee income from activities such as loan sales, investment banking, equity research, portfolio advisory and the sale of bank-owned life insurance. Revenue from other fee sources represented 49 percent of total noninterest income in second quarter 2005 compared to 43 percent in second quarter 2004 and increased 10 percent to $49.5 million from $44.8 million, primarily due to increased fees from loan sales.

Net interest income decreased $10.7 million primarily due to the flattening of the yield curve, resulting in compression of the spread on capital markets securities inventory, and due to an incremental equity charge of $4.6 million related to the capital requirements of the SLK acquisition.

Noninterest expense increased 6 percent or $4.7 million, primarily due to increased costs resulting from the acquisition of SLK.

Corporate

The Corporate segment's results yielded a pre-tax loss of $10.5 million in second quarter 2005 compared to a pre-tax loss of $3.5 million in second quarter 2004. The second quarter 2005 results include $3.6 million dividend expense on $300 million of noncumulative perpetual preferred stock issued in first quarter 2005, while the second quarter 2004 results include $2.9 million in security gains due to portfolio restructurings and venture capital gains.

AVERAGE BALANCE SHEET

Total average assets increased 33 percent to $36.3 billion for second quarter 2005. Total loans increased 20 percent to $17.8 billion as commercial loans grew 31 percent and retail loans increased 11 percent. Loans held for sale increased 29 percent to $6.1 billion. Interest-bearing core deposits increased 13 percent. Total core deposits increased 10 percent to $12.0 billion, reflecting expansion strategies which emphasize a focus on convenient hours, free checking and targeted financial center expansion. Purchased funds increased 65 percent to $17.8 billion. Average shareholders' equity increased 12 percent in second quarter 2005.

The consolidated net interest margin was 3.06 percent for second quarter 2005 compared to 3.63 percent for second quarter 2004. This compression in the margin occurred as the spread decreased to 2.66 percent in 2005 from 3.38 percent in 2004 while average earning assets increased 34 percent and net interest income increased only 13 percent. Capital markets activities tend to compress the margin because of its strategy to reduce market risk by hedging its inventory in the cash markets, which reduces the term and accordingly the interest income earned on these transactions. The SLK acquisition increased this unfavorable impact on the corporate margin compared to last year as capital markets' balance sheet grew $3.7 billion. In addition, the mortgage warehouse negatively impacted the margin this quarter as the spread decreased 118 basis points to 2.66 percent, and the volume grew 6 percent from 2004.

ASSET QUALITY

Continuing last year's trend, FHN's key asset quality ratios improved in second quarter 2005. The net charge-off ratio was 23 basis points in second quarter 2005 compared to 30 basis points in second quarter 2004 as net charge-offs decreased to $10.3 million from $11.0 million. Net charge-offs were impacted in second quarter 2005 by improvement in the consumer loan portfolios. The nonperforming assets ratio was 36 basis points in second quarter 2005 compared to 51 basis points last year with nonperforming assets of $77.5 million on June 30, 2005, compared to $90.0 million on June 30, 2004. Provision for loan losses was $15.8 million in second quarter 2005 compared to $12.3 million in second quarter 2004. An analytical model based on historical loss experience adjusted for current events, trends and economic conditions is used by management to determine the amount of provision to be recognized and to assess the adequacy of the loan loss allowance. (See the table on A-6 for an analysis of the allowance for loan losses and details on nonperforming assets and the table on A-7 for asset quality ratios).

OUTLOOK

"The continued execution of our strategic initiatives, the implementation of earnings enhancements to overcome the loss of earnings related to today's flatter yield curve environment, and the realization of earnings in the current mortgage pipeline should enable earnings per share growth to resume this year," said Chief Financial Officer Marty Mosby. "As we have discussed over the years and as was highlighted in the second quarter, a further flattening in the yield curve could unfavorably impact our earnings. We will continue to monitor these trends and develop our business plans accordingly."
