FIRST SECURITY GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of financial condition and the results of operations have been included. All such adjustments were of a normal recurring nature. Some items in the prior year financial statements were reclassified to conform to the current presentation. Reclassifications had no effect on prior year net loss or shareholders’ equity.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of First Security Group, Inc. ("First Security" , "FSG" or the "Company") and FSGBank, N.A. ("FSGBank" or the "Bank"), its wholly owned subsidiary bank. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Operating results for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2015 or any other period. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s latest annual consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Recent Developments

On June 8, 2015, First Security and Atlantic Capital Bancshares, Inc. (“Atlantic Capital”) entered into an Amendment (the “Merger Agreement Amendment”) to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated March 25, 2015, by and between First Security and Atlantic Capital (the “Merger Agreement”) providing for the merger of First Security with and into Atlantic Capital (the “Merger”).

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, Atlantic Capital will purchase First Security for total consideration of approximately $160 million. FSG shareholders may elect cash equal to $2.35 per share, stock based on a fixed exchange ratio of 0.188 shares of Atlantic Capital common stock for each FSG share or any combination thereof. Atlantic Capital intends to register its shares with the SEC and seek a listing on NASDAQ concurrent with the closing of the transaction. The Merger Agreement, as originally executed, provided for approximately 40% of the shares of First Security common stock outstanding at the effective time of the Merger to be exchanged for cash merger consideration, with the remaining 60% to be exchanged for shares of Atlantic Capital common stock. Elections as to the form of merger consideration to be received by First Security shareholders were subject to allocation to meet the 40% cash election threshold.

The Merger Agreement Amendment alters the mix of consideration to be received by First Security shareholders in the Merger. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, as amended by the Merger Agreement Amendment, between 30-35% of the shares of First Security common stock outstanding at the effective time of the Merger will be exchanged for cash, with the remaining 65-70% to be exchanged for shares of Atlantic Capital common stock. First Security shareholders may elect the form of merger consideration to be received, but such elections are subject to allocation in the event that less than 30% or more than 35% of the outstanding shares of First Security common stock are subject to a cash election.

Other than as expressly modified pursuant to the Merger Agreement Amendment, the Merger Agreement, which was previously filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by First Security with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 27, 2015, remains in full force and effect as originally executed on March 25, 2015. On June 10, 2015, First Security filed a Current Report on Form 8-K that provides additional details relating to the Merger Agreement Amendment. A copy of the Merger Agreement Amendment is is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to such Form 8-K. The transaction has been unanimously approved by the board of directors of each company. The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2015 and is subject to Atlantic Capital and First Security shareholder approval, regulatory approval and other conditions set forth in the merger agreement.

NOTE 2 – REGULATORY CAPITAL

Regulatory Capital Ratios

Banks and bank holding companies, as regulated institutions, are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the OCC and Federal Reserve, the primary federal regulators for FSGBank and the Company, respectively. The OCC and Federal Reserve have adopted minimum capital regulations or guidelines that categorize components and the level of risk associated with various types of assets. Financial institutions are expected to maintain a level of capital commensurate

8

with the risk profile assigned to their assets in accordance with the guidelines. Regulatory capital guidelines require that capital be measured in relation to the credit and market risks of both on- and off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. On January 1, 2015, the Company became subject to Basel III rules, which include transition provisions through January 1, 2019. Under Basel III, total capital consist of two tiers of capital, Tier 1 and Tier 2. Tier 1 capital is further composed of Common Equity Tier 1 Capital and additional Tier 1 capital.

The transition provisions include important differences in determining the composition of regulatory capital between the Basel I Rules and Basel III rules including, changes in capital deductions related to the Company's deferred tax assets and defined benefit pension assets, and the inclusion of unrealized gains and losses on AFS debt and certain marketable equity securities recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI"). These changes are impacted by, among other things, future changes in interest rates, overall earnings performance and company actions. Changes to the composition of regulatory capital under Basel III, as compared to the Basel I rules, are recognized in 20 percent annual increments, and will be fully recognized as of January 1, 2019. When presented on a fully phased-in basis, capital, risk-weighted assets and the capital ratios assume all regulatory capital adjustments and deductions are fully recognized.

Common Equity Tier 1 Capital primarily includes qualifying common shareholders' equity, retained earnings, accumulated other comprehensive income and certain minority interests. Goodwill, disallowed intangible assets and certain disallowed deferred tax assets are excluded from Common Equity Tier 1 Capital.

Additional Tier 1 capital primarily includes qualifying non-cumulative preferred stock, trust preferred securities subject to phase-out and certain minority interests. Certain deferred tax assets are also excluded.

Tier 2 capital primarily consists of qualifying subordinated debt, a limited portion of the allowance for loan and lease losses, trust preferred securities subject to phase-out and reserves for unfunded lending commitments. The Company's total capital is the sum of Tier 1 capital plus Tier 2 capital.

To meet adequately capitalized regulatory requirements, an institution must maintain a Common Equity Tier 1 Capital of 4.5%, a Tier 1 capital ratio of 6.0% and a Total capital ratio of 8.0%. A “well-capitalized” institution must generally maintain capital ratios 200 bps higher than the minimum guidelines. The risk-based capital rules have been further supplemented by a Tier 1 leverage ratio, defined as Tier 1 capital divided by quarterly average total assets, after certain adjustments. The Bank must maintain a Tier 1 leverage ratio of at least 5.0% to be classified as “well capitalized.” Failure to meet the capital requirements established by the joint agencies can lead to certain mandatory and discretionary actions by regulators that could have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

The Basel III rules also introduced a capital conservation buffer which will be phased in over four years beginning on January 1, 2016, with a maximum buffer of 0.625% of risk-weighted assets for 2016, 1.25% for 2017, 1.875% for 2018, and 2.5% for 2019 and thereafter. Failure to maintain the required capital conservation buffer will result in limitations on capital distributions and on discretionary bonuses to executive officers.

The Basel III rules were implemented in the first quarter of 2015. The Company opted out of the AOCI treatment under the new requirements and, as such, unrealized security gains and losses will continue to be excluded from bank regulatory capital.

For the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 and 2014, no amounts were reclassified into interest income due to gains on derivatives. For the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015, there were zero and $8 thousand, respectively, and for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2014, there were $247 thousand and $618 thousand, respectively, of gains reclassified from unrealized gains (losses) on available-for-sale securities to earnings as a result of sales during the period.

During 2013, approximately $143 million of available-for-sale securities were transferred to the held-to-maturity classification. As of the transfer date, the securities held an unrealized loss of approximately $8.9 million. The fair value as of the transfer date became the new amortized cost basis with the unrealized loss, along with any remaining purchase discount or premium, being reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive loss over the remaining life of the security. For the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015, approximately $627 thousand and $1.0 million, respectively, and for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2014, approximately $453 thousand and $935 thousand, respectively, of the unrealized loss was reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive loss.

NOTE 4 – EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE

The difference in basic and diluted weighted average shares is due to the assumed conversion of outstanding stock options and restricted stock awards using the treasury stock method. The Company has issued certain restricted stock awards, which are unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents. These restricted shares are considered participating securities. Accordingly, the Company calculated net income available to common shareholders pursuant to the two-class method, whereby net income is allocated between common shareholders and participating securities. In periods of a net loss, no allocation is made to participating securities as they are not contractually required to fund net losses. The computation of basic and diluted earnings per share is as follows:

	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended
	June 30,						June 30,
	2015			2014			2015			2014
	(in thousands, except per share amounts)

As of June 30, 2015, all stock options and restricted stock grants of 3.4 million were considered anti-dilutive as the Company was in a net loss position. As of June 30, 2014, 3.3 million stock options and restricted stock grants were considered anti-dilutive. For the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015, there were no equivalent shares included in the computation of diluted earnings per share and for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2014, there were six thousand and four thousand shares, respectively, included in the computation of diluted earnings per share.

As of June 30, 2015, the Company performed an impairment assessment of the available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities in its portfolio that had unrealized losses to determine whether the decline in the fair value of these securities below their cost was other-than-temporary. Under authoritative accounting guidance, impairment is considered other-than-temporary if any of the following conditions exists: (1) the Company intends to sell the security, (2) it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized costs basis or (3) the Company does not expect to recover the security’s entire amortized cost basis, even if the Company does not intend to sell. Additionally, accounting guidance requires that for impaired available-for-sale securities that the Company does not intend to sell and/or that it is not more-likely-than-not that the Company will have to sell prior to recovery but for which credit losses exist, the other-than-temporary impairment should be separated between the total impairment related to credit losses, which should be recognized in current earnings, and the amount of impairment related to all other factors, which should be recognized in other comprehensive income. Losses related to held-to-maturity securities are not recorded, as these securities are carried at their amortized cost. If a decline is determined to be other-than-temporary due to credit losses, the cost basis of the individual available-for-sale or held-to-maturity security is written down to fair value, which then becomes the new cost basis. The new cost basis would not be adjusted in future periods for subsequent recoveries in fair value, if any.

In evaluating the recovery of the entire amortized cost basis, the Company considers factors such as (1) the length of time and the extent to which the market value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, including events specific to the issuer or industry, (3) defaults or deferrals of scheduled interest, principal or dividend payments and (4) external credit ratings and recent downgrades.

As of June 30, 2015, gross unrealized losses in the Company’s available-for-sale portfolio totaled $546 thousand, compared to $367 thousand as of December 31, 2014 and $854 thousand as of June 30, 2014. As of June 30, 2015, gross unrecognized losses in the Company's held-to-maturity portfolio totaled $744 thousand compared to $305 thousand as of December 31, 2014 and $477 thousand as of June 30, 2014. As of June 30, 2015, the available-for-sale securities unrealized losses in mortgage-backed securities (consisting of nineteen securities), municipals (consisting of three security) and the held-to-maturity unrecognized losses in mortgage-backed securities (consisting of nine securities), municipals (consisting of four securities) and federal agencies (consisting of eight securities) are primarily due to widening credit spreads and changes in interest rates subsequent to purchase. Between June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2015, the rate on the 10-year U.S. Treasury decreased from approximately 2.53% to 2.35%. As this represented a decrease in interest rates, the market valuation of the Company's securities adjusted accordingly. The unrealized loss in other available-for-sale securities relates to two corporate notes. The unrealized loss in the corporate notes is primarily due to changes in interest rates subsequent to purchase. The Company does not intend to sell the available-for-sale investments with unrealized losses and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the available-for-sale investments before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which

17

may be maturity. Based on results of the Company’s impairment assessment, the unrealized losses related to the available-for-sale securities and the unrecognized losses related to the held-to-maturity securities at June 30, 2015 are considered temporary.

On December 10, 2013, the Federal Reserve and other regulators jointly issued a proposed rule implementing requirements of a new Section 13 to the Bank Holding Company Act, commonly referred to as the “Volcker Rule.” We continue to monitor and review applicable regulatory guidance on the implementation of the Volcker Rule. The Federal Reserve Board granted an extension for conformance until July 21, 2017 and announced that it intends to exercise its authority to give banking entities two additional one-year extensions to conform their ownership interests in and sponsorship of certain collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”) covered by the Volcker Rule.

As of June 30, 2015, the Company has identified approximately $16.0 million of collateralized loan obligations ("CLOs") within its investment security portfolio that may be impacted by the Volcker Rule. If these securities are deemed to be prohibited bank investments, the Company would have to sell the securities prior to the compliance date of July 21, 2017. At this time, the Company continues to evaluate the additional regulatory guidance on the subject as well as the specific terms of the CLOs in the Company's portfolio to determine whether such CLOs will remain permitted investments. The unrealized gain as of June 30, 2015 for the Company's CLOs totaled $14 thousand.

NOTE 6 – LOANS HELD-FOR-SALE

The Company maintains loans held-for-sale in connection with three distinct departments: the mortgage department, the government lending department and the TriNet division. The Company's mortgage department primarily originates long-term loans held-for-sale and uses various correspondent relationships to sell the loans on the secondary market. The mortgage department also originates certain mortgage loans to be retained and classifies as loans held-for-investment. From time to time, certain of these loans may be marketed and sold in order to manage the Company's interest rate risk position and concentration limits. The government lending department originates SBA and USDA government guaranteed loans with the primary purpose of selling the guaranteed portion in the secondary market. The Company's TriNet division originates construction loans for pre-leased "build to suit" projects and provides interim and long-term financing to professional developers and private investors of commercial real estate with or subject to long-term leases to tenants that are investment grade or have investment grade attributes. The Company classifies all TriNet originations as held-for-investment. From time to time, the Company may evaluate a portion of the originated loans to sell in order to manage the Company's overall interest rate risk and asset-liability sensitivity. The Company transfers the loans to held-for-sale once specific loans are identified and the decision to sell the loan has been made. This is generally represented by the Company's execution of a letter of intent.

Residential loans held-for-sale by the Company's mortgage department totaled $1.3 million, $2.3 million and $547 thousand at June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014, respectively.

The Company's government lending department had loans held-for-sale at June 30, 2015 of approximately $1.9 million. This amount represents the portion of the SBA loan the Company intends to sell to third parties. Sales of SBA loans have generated income of approximately $59 thousand and $73 thousand, respectively, for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 and $99 thousand and $121 thousand for the same periods in 2014.

During the first six months of 2015, the Company identified groups of commercial real estate loans to be sold to third parties from the TriNet division.

The allowance for loan and lease losses is composed of two primary components: (1) specific impairments for substandard/nonaccrual loans and leases and (2) general allocations for classified loan pools, including special mention and substandard/accrual loans, as well as all remaining pools of loans. The Company accumulates pools based on the underlying classification of the collateral. Each pool is assigned a loss severity rate based on historical loss experience and various qualitative and environmental factors, including, but not limited to, credit quality and economic conditions. The Company may include an unallocated component to the allowance for inherent risks within the loan portfolio that cannot be quantified through the loss factors or the qualitative factors. The Company determines the allowance on a quarterly basis. Because of uncertainties inherent in the estimation process, management’s estimate of credit losses in the loan portfolio and the related allowance may materially change in the near term. However, the amount of the change that is reasonably possible cannot be estimated.

Included in the Company's loan portfolio are government guaranteed loans the Company purchased totaling $48.2 million, $51.3 million and $54.9 million at June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014, respectively. Due to the nature of these loans, there is no specific or general allocation calculated or included in the allowance for loan and lease losses for this group of loans. These loans are reported within the appropriate classification, primarily commercial loans or commercial real estate loans.

The following tables present an analysis of the activity in the allowance for loan and lease losses for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 and 2014. The provision for loan and lease losses in the tables below do not include the Company’s provision accrual for unfunded commitments of zero and $2 thousand for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015, respectively, and $6 thousand and $12 thousand for the same periods in 2014. The reserve for unfunded commitments is included in other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets and totaled $308 thousand, $306 thousand and $294 thousand at June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014, respectively.

The Company utilizes a risk rating system to evaluate the credit risk of its loan portfolio. The Company classifies loans as: pass, special mention, substandard/non-impaired, substandard/impaired, doubtful or loss. The following describes the Company's classifications and the various risk indicators associated with each rating.

A pass rating is assigned to those loans that are performing as contractually agreed and do not exhibit the characteristics of the criticized and classified risk ratings as defined below. The Company utilizes six grade classifications within the Pass rating based on the varying risk characteristics of the loan. Pass loan pools do not include the unfunded portions of binding commitments to lend, standby letters of credit, deposit secured loans or mortgage loans originated with commitments to sell in the secondary market. Loans that are not required to have an allowance reserve include: loans secured by segregated deposits held by FSGBank, loans held-for-sale, and the government guaranteed portion of SBA and USDA loans.

A special mention loan risk rating is considered criticized but is not considered as severe as a classified loan risk rating. Special mention loans contain one or more potential weakness(es), which if not corrected, could result in an unacceptable increase in credit risk at some future date. These loans may be characterized by the following risks and/or trends:

Loans to Businesses:

• Downward trend in sales, profit levels and margins

• Impaired working capital position compared to industry

• Cash flow strained in order to meet debt repayment schedule

• Technical defaults due to noncompliance with financial covenants

• Recurring trade payable slowness

• High leverage compared to industry average with shrinking equity cushion

• Questionable abilities of management

• Weak industry conditions

• Inadequate or outdated financial statements

23

Loans to Businesses or Individuals:

• Loan delinquencies and overdrafts may occur

• Original source of repayment questionable

• Documentation deficiencies may not be easily correctable

• Loan may need to be restructured

• Collateral or guarantor offers adequate protection

• Unsecured debt to tangible net worth is excessive

A substandard loan risk rating is characterized as having specifically identified weaknesses and deficiencies typically resulting from severe adverse trends of a financial, economic, or managerial nature, and may warrant non-accrual status.

The Company segregates substandard loans into two classifications based on the Company’s allowance methodology for impaired loans. The Company defines a substandard/impaired loan as a substandard loan relationship in excess of $250 thousand that is individually reviewed. Substandard loans have a greater likelihood of loss and may require a protracted work-out plan. In addition to the factors listed for special mention loans, substandard loans may be characterized by the following risks and/or trends:

Loans to Businesses:

• Sustained losses that have severely eroded equity and cash flows

• Concentration in illiquid assets

• Serious management problems or internal fraud

• Chronic trade payable slowness; may be placed on COD or collection by trade creditor

• Inability to access other funding sources

• Financial statements with adverse opinion or disclaimer; may be received late

• Insufficient documented cash flows to meet contractual debt service requirements

Loans to Businesses or Individuals:

• Chronic or severe delinquency or has met the retail classification standards which is generally past dues greater than 90 days

• Frequent overdrafts

• Likelihood of bankruptcy exists

• Serious documentation deficiencies

• Reliance on secondary sources of repayment which are presently considered adequate

• Demand letter sent

• Litigation may have been filed against the borrower

Loans with a risk rating of doubtful are individually analyzed to determine the Company's best estimate of the loss based on the most recent assessment of all available sources of repayment. Doubtful loans are considered impaired and placed on nonaccrual. For doubtful loans, the collection or liquidation in full of principal and/or interest is highly questionable or improbable. The Company estimates the specific potential loss based upon an individual analysis of the relationship risks, the borrower’s cash flow, the borrower’s management and any underlying secondary sources of repayment. The amount of the estimated loss, if any, is then either specifically reserved in a separate component of the allowance or charged-off. In addition to the characteristics listed for substandard loans, the following characteristics apply to doubtful loans:

Loans to Businesses:

• Normal operations are severely diminished or have ceased

• Seriously impaired cash flow

• Numerous exceptions to loan agreement

• Outside accountant questions entity’s survivability as a “going concern”

• Financial statements may be received late, if at all

• Material legal judgments filed

• Collection of principal and interest is impaired

• Collateral/Guarantor may offer inadequate protection

Loans to Businesses or Individuals:

• Original repayment terms materially altered

• Secondary source of repayment is inadequate

• Asset liquidation may be in process with all efforts directed at debt retirement

• Documentation deficiencies not correctable

The consistent application of the above loan risk rating methodology ensures that the Company has the ability to track historical losses and appropriately estimate potential future losses in our allowance. Additionally, appropriate loan risk ratings assist the Company in allocating credit and special asset personnel in the most effective manner. Significant changes in loan risk ratings can have a material impact on the allowance and thus a material impact on the Company's financial results by requiring significant increases or decreases in provision expense. The Company individually reviews these relationships on a quarterly basis to determine the required allowance or loss, as applicable.

During the first quarter of 2015, the Company changed the dollar threshold utilized to evaluate loan relationships for impairment. Prior to 2015, the dollar threshold utilized was $500 thousand. The Company determined it was appropriate given alignment with a change in internal procedures and controls related to credit quality monitoring and loan review scope. The reduction in the dollar threshold impacts the Company's estimated allowance for loan and lease loss. The change in our estimated allowance for loan and lease losses and provision expense, due to the change in accounting policy, was recorded in the period the change in the dollar threshold took place. The reduction in the dollar threshold increased impaired loans by approximately $729 thousand at June 30, 2015. The change in the dollar threshold also decreased the estimated allowance for loan and lease loss and associated provision expense by approximately $64 thousand for the six months endedJune 30, 2015.

The following table presents the Company’s internal risk rating by loan classification as utilized in the allowance analysis as of June 30, 2015:

The Company classifies a loan as impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impaired loans were $5.2 million, $1.3 million and $2.3 million at June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014, respectively. For impaired loans, the Company generally applies all payments directly to principal. Accordingly, the Company did not recognize any significant amount of interest income for impaired loans during the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 and 2014.

As of June 30, 2015, the Company had eight loans, not on non-accrual, that were considered troubled debt restructurings. Four residential loans totaling $122 thousand were restructured with lower interest rates and payments, two commercial real estate loans totaling $777 thousand were restructured with short term extensions to allow collection of financial information and re-evaluate, and two consumer loans totaling $27 thousand were restructured with lower payments. As of June 30, 2015, these loans were performing under the modified terms.

The Company had $926 thousand, $177 thousand and $497 thousand in total troubled debt restructurings outstanding as of June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014, respectively. The Company has allocated no specific reserves to customers whose loan terms have been modified in troubled debt restructurings as of June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014. The Company has not committed to lend additional amounts as of June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014 to customers with outstanding loans that are classified as troubled debt restructurings.

The Company completed one modification totaling $734 thousand that would qualify as a troubled debt restructuring during the three months endedJune 30, 2015 and four modifications totaling $800 thousand that would qualify as troubled debt restructurings during the six months endedJune 30, 2015. The Company completed two modifications totaling $81 thousand for the year endedDecember 31, 2014 that would qualify as a troubled debt restructuring and completed one modification totaling $47 thousand that would qualify as a troubled debt restructuring for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2014.

The following table presents loans by class modified as troubled debt restructurings for which there was a payment default within twelve months following the modification during the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 and 2014 and the year endedDecember 31, 2014:

A loan is considered to be in payment default once it is 30 days contractually past due under the modified terms.

The troubled debt restructuring that subsequently defaulted described above increased charge-offs by $12 thousand and had no impact on the allowance for loan losses during the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015. The troubled debt restructurings that subsequently defaulted above had no impact on the allowance for loan losses or charge-offs during the year endedDecember 31, 2014 and the three and six months endedJune 30, 2014.

NOTE 8 – OTHER BORROWINGS

Other borrowings at June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014 consist of short-term variable or fixed rate advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati ("FHLB") totaling $65.1 million, $56.0 million and $38.1 million, respectively. There were no other borrowings at June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 or June 30, 2014.

Pursuant to the blanket agreement for advances and security agreements with the FHLB, advances as of June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014 were secured by the Company’s unencumbered qualifying 1-4 family first mortgage loans subject to varying limitations determined by the FHLB, investment securities and by the FHLB stock owned by the Company. As of June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014, the Company had loans totaling $67.9 million, $65.3 million and $157.4 million, respectively, and investment securities totaling $82.8 million, $96.0 million and $102.6 million, respectively, pledged as collateral at the FHLB.

As a member of FHLB, the Company must own FHLB stock. The amount of FHLB stock required to be held is subject the Company’s asset size and outstanding FHLB advances. At June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014, the Company owned FHLB stock totaling $3.3 million, $3.3 million and $3.3 million, respectively. The FHLB stock is recorded in other assets on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. Based on the collateral and the Company's holdings of FHLB stock, the Company is eligible to borrow up to a total of $152.7 million at June 30, 2015.

31

The terms of the FHLB advances as of June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014 are as follows:

Balance as of June 30, 2015
Maturity Year	Origination Date	Type	Principal (in thousands)		Rate		Maturity

Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase (“Repurchase Agreements”)

The Company enters into agreements under which it sells securities subject to an obligation to repurchase the same or similar securities. Under these arrangements, the Company may transfer legal control over the assets but still retain effective control through an agreement that both entitles and obligates the Company to repurchase the assets. As a result, these repurchase agreements are accounted for as collateralized financing arrangements (i.e., secured borrowings) and not as a sale and subsequent repurchase of securities. The obligation to repurchase the securities is reflected as a liability in the Company's consolidated balance sheet, while the securities underlying the repurchase agreements remain in the respective investment securities asset accounts. As a result, there is no offsetting or netting of the investment securities assets with the repurchase agreement liabilities. In addition, as the Company does not enter into reverse repurchase agreements, there is no such offsetting to be done with the repurchase agreements.

The right of setoff for a repurchase agreement resembles a secured borrowing, whereby the collateral pledged by the Company would be used to settle the fair value of the repurchase agreement should the Company be in default (e.g., fail to make an interest payment to the counterparty). For private institution repurchase agreements, if the private institution counterparty were to default (e.g., declare bankruptcy), the Company could cancel the repurchase agreement (i.e., cease payment of principal and interest), and attempt collection on the amount of collateral value in excess of the repurchase agreement fair value. The collateral is held by a third party financial institution in the counterparty's custodial account. The counterparty has the right to sell or repledge the investment securities. The Company is required by the counterparty to maintain adequate collateral levels. In the event the collateral fair value falls below stipulated levels, the Company will pledge additional securities. The Company closely monitors collateral levels to ensure adequate levels are maintained, while mitigating the potential risk of over-collateralization in the event of counterparty default.

The following table presents the remaining contractual maturities of the Company’s repurchase agreements as of June 30, 2015, disaggregated by the class of collateral pledged.

NOTE 9 – INCOME TAXES

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, which requires an asset and liability approach for the financial accounting and reporting of income taxes. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements. These balances are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply in the year(s) in which these temporary differences are expected to reverse. The effect on deferred income taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period when the change is enacted.

In accordance with ASC 740, the Company is required to establish a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets when it is “more likely than not” that a portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The evaluation requires significant judgment and extensive analysis of all available positive and negative evidence, the forecasts of future income, applicable tax planning strategies and assessments of the current and future economic and business conditions.

During 2010, the Company established a deferred tax asset valuation allowance after evaluating all available positive and negative evidence. A valuation allowance is required when it is "more likely than not" that the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The evaluation requires significant judgment and extensive analysis of all available positive and negative evidence, the forecasts of future income, applicable tax planning strategies and assessments of the current and future economic and business conditions. For the six months endedJune 30, 2015, the Company reported a net loss, which is negative evidence. Currently, the Company has determined that there is not sufficient positive evidence to reach a "more likely than not" conclusion that the deferred tax assets will be realized and as such, a full valuation allowance exists as of June 30, 2015. The Company evaluates the valuation allowance on a quarterly basis. As of June 30, 2015, the valuation allowance totals $61.7 million resulting in a net deferred tax asset of zero.

The Company recognized an income tax provision of $145 thousand and $290 thousand for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015, respectively, and $131 thousand and $263 thousand for the same periods in 2014.

The Company evaluated its material tax positions as of June 30, 2015. Under the “more-likely-than-not” threshold guidelines, the Company believes it has identified all significant uncertain tax benefits. The Company evaluates, on a quarterly basis or sooner if necessary, to determine if new or pre-existing uncertain tax positions are significant. In the event a significant uncertain tax position is determined to exist, penalty and interest will be accrued, in accordance with Internal Revenue Service guidelines, and recorded as a component of income tax expense in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 11 –SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

As of June 30, 2015, the Company has three share-based compensation plans, the 2012 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "2012 LTIP"), the 2002 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "2002 LTIP") and the 1999 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "1999 LTIP" and, together with the 2012 LTIP and 2002 LTIP, the "Plans"). The Plans are administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Committee"), which selects persons eligible to receive awards and determines the number of shares and/or options subject to each award, the terms, conditions and other provisions of the award. The Plans are described in further detail below.

During the Company's participation in TARP CPP, the terms of awards were also subject to compliance with applicable TARP compensation regulations prior to the exchange of the TARP Preferred Stock on April 11, 2013.

The 2012 LTIP was approved by the shareholders of the Company at the Company's 2012 annual meeting as previously reported on a Current Report on Form 8-K filed June 26, 2012 and subsequently amended at the Company's 2013 annual meeting as reported on a Current Report on Form 8-K filed on July 26, 2013. The amendment increased the shares reserved for issuance from 175,000 shares to 6,250,000 shares and was effective on July 24, 2013. The 2012 Long-Term Incentive Plan permits the Committee to make a variety of awards, including incentive and nonqualified options to purchase shares of First Security's common stock, stock appreciation rights, other share-based awards which are settled in either cash or shares of First Security's common stock and are determined by reference to shares of stock, such as grants of restricted common stock, grants of rights to receive stock in the future, or dividend equivalent rights, and cash performance awards, which are settled in cash

34

and are not determined by reference to shares of First Security's common stock ("Awards"). These discretionary Awards may be made on an individual basis or through a program approved by the Committee for the benefit of a group of eligible persons. As of June 30, 2015, the number of shares available under the 2012 LTIP for future grants was 2,686,550.

The 2002 LTIP was approved by the shareholders of the Company at the Company's 2002 annual meeting and subsequently amended by the shareholders of the Company at the Company's 2004 and 2007 annual meetings to increase the number of shares available for issuance under the 2002 LTIP by 480 thousand and 750 thousand shares, respectively. The total number of shares authorized for awards prior to the 10-for-1 reverse stock split was 1.5 million. As a result of the 10-for-1 reverse stock split in 2012, the total shares currently authorized under the 2002 LTIP is 151,800, of which not more than 20% may be granted as awards of restricted stock. Eligible participants include eligible employees, officers, consultants and directors of the Company or any affiliate. The exercise price per share of a stock option granted may not be less than the fair market value as of the grant date. The exercise price must be at least 110% of the fair market value at the grant date for options granted to individuals, who at the grant date, are 10% owners of the Company’s voting stock (each a 10% owner). Restricted stock may be awarded to participants with terms and conditions determined by the Committee. The term of each award is determined by the Committee, provided that the term of any incentive stock option may not exceed ten years (five years for 10% owners) from its grant date. Each option award vests in approximately equal percentages each year over a period of not less than three years from the date of grant as determined by the Committee subject to accelerated vesting under terms of the 2002 LTIP or as provided in any award agreement. As of June 30, 2015, there are no shares available for future grants under the 2002 LTIP.

Participation in the 1999 LTIP is limited to eligible employees. The total number of shares of stock authorized for awards prior to the 10-for-1 reverse stock split was 936 thousand. As a result of the 10-for-1 reverse stock split in 2013, the total shares currently authorized under the 1999 LTIP is 93,600, of which not more than 10% could be granted as awards of restricted stock. Under the terms of the 1999 LTIP, incentive stock options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock may not be granted at a price less than the fair market value of the stock as of the date of the grant. Options must be exercised within ten years from the date of grant subject to conditions specified by the 1999 LTIP. Restricted stock could also be awarded by the Committee in accordance with the 1999 LTIP. Generally, each award vests in approximately equal percentages each year over a period of not less than three years and vest from the date of grant as determined by the Committee subject to accelerated vesting under terms of the 1999 LTIP or as provided in any award agreement. As of June 30, 2015, there are no shares available for future grants under the 1999 LTIP.

¹ Due to the deferred tax valuation allowance, tax benefit is reversed through the valuation allowance.

During the six months endedJune 30, 2015 and 2014, no options were exercised.

The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using a closed form option valuation (Black-Scholes) model that uses the following assumptions: expected dividend yield, expected volatility, risk-free interest rate, expected life of the option and the grant date fair value. Expected volatilities were based on historical volatilities of the Company's common stock. During 2015 and 2014, the Company utilized a regional bank index and the Company's common stock to determine expected volatilities. The Company uses historical data to estimate option exercise and post-vesting termination behavior. The expected term of options granted is based on historical data and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding, which takes into account that the options are not transferable. The risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant.

There were 5 thousand options granted during the six months endedJune 30, 2015. Options granted during the six months endedJune 30, 2014 totaled 161 thousand. The fair value of options granted during the six months endedJune 30, 2015 was determined using the following weighted-average assumptions as of the grant date.

	As of June 30, 2015		As of June 30, 2014

On February 27, 2014, as reported on a Current Report on Form 8-K filed on March 4, 2014, certain awards previously granted under the 2012 LTIP were modified effective February 28, 2014. The modification changed the vesting period from three years to five years. In addition, 96,250 supplemental stock options were authorized and will vest over a five year period in accordance with the modification. The supplemental stock options are exercisable at $2.33 per share and are otherwise identical to the original stock options and are subject to other terms and conditions of the 2012 LTIP and to the specific stock option awards.

As of June 30, 2015, there was $1.6 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested stock options granted under the Plans. The cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.9 years.

Restricted Stock

The Plans described above allow for the issuance of restricted stock awards that may not be sold or otherwise transferred until certain restrictions have lapsed. The unearned share-based compensation related to these awards is being amortized to compensation expense over the period the restrictions lapse. The share-based expense for these awards was determined based on the market price of the Company’s stock at the grant date applied to the total number of shares that were anticipated to fully vest and then amortized over the vesting period.

As of June 30, 2015, unearned share-based compensation associated with these awards totaled $1.4 million. The Company recognized compensation expense, net of forfeitures, of $152 thousand and $290 thousand for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 and $201 thousand and $349 thousand for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2014, respectively, related to the amortization of deferred compensation that was included in salaries and benefits in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The remaining cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.0 years.

NOTE 12 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The authoritative accounting guidance for fair value measurements defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. A fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. Authoritative guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs.

There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair values:

Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity can access as of the measurement date.

Level 2 - Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a company's own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

The following tables present information about the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2015, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized by the Company to determine such fair value. In general, fair values determined by Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs utilize inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the hierarchy. In such cases, the fair value is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

The Company used the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate fair value:

Cash and cash equivalents: The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value.

Interest bearing deposits in banks: The carrying amounts of interest bearing deposits in banks approximate fair value.

Federal Home Loan Bank Stock and Federal Reserve Bank Stock: It is not practical to determine the fair value of FHLB Stock or FRB Stock due to restrictions placed on their transferability. As such, these instruments are carried at cost.

Securities: The fair values for investment securities are determined by quoted market prices, if available (Level 1). For securities where quoted prices are not available, fair values are calculated based on market prices of similar securities (Level 2). For securities where quoted prices or market prices of similar securities are not available, fair values are calculated using discounted cash flows or other market indicators (Level 3). Discounted cash flows are calculated using spread to swap and LIBOR curves that are updated to incorporate loss severities, volatility, credit spread and optionality. During times when trading is more liquid, broker quotes are used (if available) to validate the model. Rating agency and industry research reports

37

as well as defaults and deferrals on individual securities are reviewed and incorporated into the calculations. Our municipal securities valuations are supported by analysis prepared by an independent third party. Their approach to determining fair value involves using recently executed transactions for similar securities and market quotations for similar securities. As these securities are not rated by the rating agencies and trading volumes are thin, it was determined that these were valued using Level 2 inputs.

Derivatives: The fair values of derivatives are based on valuation models using observable market data as of the measurement date (Level 2).

Loans: For variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and have no significant changes in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values. Fair values for certain mortgage loans and other consumer loans are estimated using the quoted market prices for securities backed by similar loans, adjusted for differences in loan characteristics. The fair value of other types of loans and leases is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers of similar credit ratings quality. Fair value for impaired loans and leases are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis or underlying collateral values, where applicable. The fair value may not approximate the exit price.

Impaired Loans: At the time a loan is considered impaired, it is valued at the lower of cost or fair value. Impaired loans carried at fair value generally receive specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses. For collateral dependent loans, fair value is commonly based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Non-real estate collateral may be valued using an appraisal, net book value per the borrower's financial statements, or aging reports, adjusted or discounted based on management's historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of the valuation, and management's expertise and knowledge of the client and client's business, resulting in a Level 3 fair value classification. Impaired loans are evaluated on a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly.

Other Real Estate Owned: Assets acquired through or instead of loan foreclosure are initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell when acquired, establishing a new cost basis. These assets are subsequently accounted for at lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell. Fair value is commonly based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.

Appraisals for both collateral-dependent impaired loans and other real estate owned are performed annually by certified general appraisers (for commercial properties) or certified residential appraisers (for residential properties) whose qualifications and licenses have been reviewed and verified by the Company. Once received, a member of the Special Assets Department reviews the assumptions and approaches utilized in the appraisal as well as the overall resulting fair value in comparison with independent data sources such as recent market data or industry-wide statistics. On an annual basis, the Company compares the actual selling price of collateral that has been sold to the most recent appraised value to determine what additional adjustment should be made to the appraisal value to arrive at fair value. The most recent analysis performed indicated that a discount of approximately 17% should be applied.

Loans Held For Sale: Fair value for loans originated to be held for sale is determined using quoted prices for similar assets, adjusted for specific attributes of that loan or other observable market data, such as outstanding commitments from third party investors (Level 2). Fair value of loans transferred to held for sale is determined using the carrying amount of the loans before they were transferred to loans held for sale net of any allowance for loan and lease loss, resulting in a Level 3 fair value classification.

Accrued interest receivable: The carrying value of accrued interest receivable approximates fair value.

Deposit liabilities: The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts, and certain money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value for fixed-rate certificates of deposit is estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregate expected maturities on time deposits.

Federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase: These borrowings generally mature in 90 days or less and, accordingly, the carrying amount reported in the consolidated balance sheets approximates fair value.

38

Accrued interest payable: The carrying value of accrued interest payable approximates fair value.

Other borrowings: Other borrowings carrying amount reported in the consolidated balance sheets approximates fair value.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, including financial assets and liabilities for which the Company has elected the fair value option, are summarized below:

For the six month period ended June 30, 2015, the Company increased its valuation allowance to $3.0 million on other real estate owned. The Company recorded write-downs on other real estate owned of $20 thousand and $76 thousand during the three months endedJune 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and write-downs on other real estate owned of $163 thousand and $385 thousand for the six months endedJune 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. For collateral-dependent loans, no provision for loan loss was recored during the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015, and a five hundred thousand provision for loan loss was recorded during the three and six months endedJune 30, 2014. Any changes in the valuation allowance for a collateral-dependent loan are included in the allowance analysis and may result in additional provision expense.

There have been no transfers into or out of Level 3 during 2015 or 2014. There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during 2015 or 2014.

For loans transferred to held for sale the carrying amount was estimated by the carrying amount of the loans before they were transferred to loans held for sale, net of of any associated allowance for loan and lease loss.

For impaired loans and OREO properties, the Company utilizes independent, third-party appraisals to determine fair value. Independent appraisals are ordered at least annually. As part of the normal appraisal process, the appraisers generally provide the appraised value using one of following techniques: the sales comparison approach, the income approach or a combination thereof.  Under the sales comparison approach, the appraiser may make certain adjustments from the sold property to the appraised property, including, but not limited to, differences in square footage, lot size, absorption rates or location. As of June 30, 2015, the adjustments between the appraised property and the comparison property range from (72.4)% to 175.2% with a weighted average adjustment of (3.4)%. Under the income approach, the appraiser may make certain adjustments including, but not limited to, capitalization rates and differences in operating income expectations.  The Company's current third-party appraisals provided capitalization rates up to 10.0% with a weighted average of 9.1%. The Company's current third-party appraisals do not provide a range of adjustments to net operating income expectations. The Company monitors the realization rate between proceeds received and appraised value for all sold OREO properties.  This discount, defined as the weighted average percentage difference between appraised values and proceeds, is then applied to all remaining appraisals associated with impaired loans and OREO properties.  The Company monitors and applies this adjustment to the Company's Level 3 properties. The weighted average discount is approximately 17.0% as of June 30, 2015.

NOTE 13 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company is party to credit related financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and the issuance of financial guarantees in the form of financial and performance standby letters of credit. Such commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets.

The Company’s exposure to credit loss is represented by the contractual amount of these commitments. The Company follows the same credit policies in making commitments as they do for on-balance-sheet instruments.

The Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk for unfunded loan commitments and standby letters of credit at June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014 was as follows:

	June 30, 2015		December 31, 2014		June 30, 2014
	(in thousands)
Commitments to extend credit - fixed rate	$	43,796	$	37,819	$	35,290
Commitments to extend credit - variable rate	110,317		94,568		96,417
Total commitments to extend credit	$	154,113	$	132,387	$	131,707
Standby letters of credit	$	3,633	$	3,272	$	3,591

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to customers. Standby letters of credit are contingent commitments issued by the Company to guarantee performance of a customer to a third party under a contractual non-financial obligation for which it receives a fee. Financial standby letters of credit represent a commitment to guarantee customer repayment of an outstanding loan or debt instrument. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of fees. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company on extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property and equipment and income-producing commercial properties.

47

The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of its business. Additionally, in the ordinary course of business, the Company is subject to regulatory examinations, information gathering requests, inquiries, and investigations. The Company establishes accruals for litigation and regulatory matters when those matters present loss contingencies that the Company determines to be both probable and reasonably estimable. Based on current knowledge, advice of counsel and available insurance coverage, management does not believe that liabilities arising from legal claims, if any, will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. However, in light of the significant uncertainties involved in these matters, the early stage of various legal proceedings, and the indeterminate amount of damages sought in some of these matters, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of these matters, if unfavorable, could be material to the Company’s results of operations for any particular period.

The Company intends to vigorously pursue all available defenses to these claims. There are significant uncertainties involved in any litigation. Although the ultimate outcome of these lawsuits cannot be ascertained at this time, based upon information that presently is available to it, management is unable to predict the outcome of these cases and cannot determine the probability of an adverse result or reasonably estimate a range of potential loss, if any. In addition, management is unable to estimate a range of reasonably possible losses with respect to these claims.

Two putative shareholder class action lawsuits have been filed in connection with the merger. Knutson v. First Security

Group, Inc. et al., filed April 15, 2015 in the Chancery Court for Hamilton County, Tennessee, names First Security, the members

of its board of directors, and Atlantic Capital as defendants. Meade v. Kramer, et al., filed April 24, 2015 in the Chancery Court for Hamilton County, Tennessee, names First Security, the members of its board of directors, FSGBank, N.A., Atlantic Capital and Atlantic Capital Bank as defendants. Each of these complaints alleges, among other things, that the First Security directors breached their fiduciary duties in connection with the negotiation and approval of the merger agreement and that the other named defendants aided and abetted those alleged breaches of fiduciary duties. Among other relief, the plaintiffs seek injunctive relief preventing parties from consummating the merger, rescission of the transactions completed by the merger agreement, an award of attorney’s fees and expenses for plaintiffs and other forms of relief. On June 1, 2015, the Chancery Court entered an order

consolidating these two suits under the caption In re First Security Group, Inc. Stockholder Litigation, Case No. 15-0212. On June 25, 2015, the plaintiffs filed an amended and consolidated class action complaint in the Chancery Court for Hamilton County, Chattanooga. The amended complaint repeats many of the same allegations of the original complaints but also makes additional allegations with respect to disclosures contained in the joint proxy statement/prospectus. First Security believes that these lawsuits are without merit and intends to vigorously defend against them. First Security has not accrued a liability for these claims. On July 24, 2015, the defendants filed motions to dismiss the amended complaint.  A hearing on the motions to dismiss has been scheduled for August 31, 2015.

NOTE 14 – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Accounting Standards Update 2014-04, Receivables - Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors - Reclassification of Residual Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans Upon Foreclosure. In January 2014, the FASB amended this existing guidance to clarify when a creditor should be considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan such that the loan should be derecognized and the real estate recognized. These amendments clarify that an in substance repossession or foreclosure occurs, and a creditor is considered to have received physical repossession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan, upon either: 1) the creditor obtaining legal title to the residential real estate property upon completion of a foreclosure, or 2) the borrower conveying all interest in the residential real estate property to the creditor to satisfy that loan through completion of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or through similar legal agreement. These amendments are effective for public business entities for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company's operating results or financial condition.

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers." This update is a joint project with the International Accounting Standards Board initiated to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue and to develop a common revenue standard that is meant to remove inconsistencies and weaknesses in revenue requirements, provide a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues, improve comparability of revenue recognition practices, provide more useful information to users of financial statements and simplify the preparation of financial statements. The guidance in this update supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, "Revenue Recognition" and most industry-specific guidance throughout the Industry Topics of Codification. This update is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is evaluating the impact of this update and does not believe it will have a significant impact to the Company's operating results or financial condition.

SECOND QUARTER 2015 AND RECENT EVENTS

The following discussion and analysis sets forth the major factors that affected the results of operations and financial condition reflected in the unaudited financial statements for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 and 2014. Such discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes attached thereto, which are included in this Form 10-Q.

Company Overview

First Security Group, Inc. ("First Security Group" or the "Company") is a bank holding company headquartered in Chattanooga, Tennessee, with $1.1 billion in assets as of June 30, 2015. Founded in 1999, First Security’s community bank subsidiary, FSGBank, N.A. ("FSGBank" or the "Bank"), currently has 26 full-service banking offices, including its headquarters, along the interstate corridors of eastern and middle Tennessee and northern Georgia and 265 full-time equivalent employees. FSGBank provides retail and commercial banking services, trust and investment management, mortgage banking, financial planning and Internet banking (www.FSGBank.com) services.

Our primary mission has been to transform FSGBank into a premier community bank in East Tennessee. To accomplish this vision, three initial tasks were necessary: raising a significant amount of new capital, disposing of a majority of our non-performing assets, and satisfying the Bank's Consent Order with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (the "OCC"). The successful execution of these three tasks would enable us to fully implement our business plan, return to profitability and expedite our transformation into a premier institution.

49

During 2013, we successfully completed a recapitalization of the Company. As part of the recapitalization, including the rights offering, we issued 63,704,234 shares of common stock at $1.50 per share for proceeds of approximately $96.0 million. In addition, we executed a problem loan sale for over $36 million of under- and non-performing loans. On March 10, 2014, OCC terminated the Consent Order with FSGBank. On October 3, 2014, the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta (the "Federal Reserve") terminated the Written Agreement with First Security Group, Inc.

With each of these tasks complete, we began implementing our business plan to position us appropriately for both short-term and long-term success and our mission of becoming a top-tier community bank within our markets. As a result of the progress achieved, we returned to profitability during 2014. At the same time, we began to evaluate our business plan, the current rate environment and the competitive market to determine the time-frame associated with achieving our mission of becoming a top-tier community bank. We concluded that a merger with another financial institution was the appropriate decision to accelerate our continued improvement.

FSG-Atlantic Capital Merger—On June 8, 2015, First Security and Atlantic Capital Bancshares, Inc. (“Atlantic Capital”) entered into an Amendment (the “Merger Agreement Amendment”) to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated March 25, 2015, by and between First Security and Atlantic Capital (the “Merger Agreement”) providing for the merger of First Security with and into Atlantic Capital (the “Merger”).

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, Atlantic Capital will purchase First Security for total consideration of approximately $160 million. FSG shareholders may elect cash equal to $2.35 per share, stock based on a fixed exchange ratio of 0.188 shares of Atlantic Capital common stock for each FSG share or any combination thereof. Atlantic Capital intends to register its shares with the SEC and seek a listing on NASDAQ concurrent with the closing of the transaction. The Merger Agreement, as originally executed, provided for approximately 40% of the shares of First Security common stock outstanding at the effective time of the Merger to be exchanged for cash merger consideration, with the remaining 60% to be exchanged for shares of Atlantic Capital common stock. Elections as to the form of merger consideration to be received by First Security shareholders were subject to allocation to meet the 40% cash election threshold.

The Merger Agreement Amendment alters the mix of consideration to be received by First Security shareholders in the Merger. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, as amended by the Merger Agreement Amendment, between 30-35% of the shares of First Security common stock outstanding at the effective time of the Merger will be exchanged for cash, with the remaining 65-70% to be exchanged for shares of Atlantic Capital common stock. First Security shareholders may elect the form of merger consideration to be received, but such elections are subject to allocation in the event that less than 30% or more than 35% of the outstanding shares of First Security common stock are subject to a cash election.

Other than as expressly modified pursuant to the Merger Agreement Amendment, the Merger Agreement, which was previously filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by First Security with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 27, 2015, remains in full force and effect as originally executed on March 25, 2015. On June 10, 2015, First Security filed a Current Report on Form 8-K that provides additional details relating to the Merger Agreement Amendment. A copy of the Merger Agreement Amendment is is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to such Form 8-K. The transaction has been unanimously approved by the board of directors of each company. The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2015 and is subject to Atlantic Capital and First Security shareholder approval, regulatory approval and other conditions set forth in the merger agreement.

Overview

Market Conditions

Our financial results are impacted by both macro-economic and micro-economic conditions. We monitor key indicators such as, changes in interest rates, unemployment rates and employment trends on the national, regional and local levels as well as specific economic investments in our market area and incorporate applicable trends into our risk tolerances. Lending and deposit activities and fee income generation are influenced by levels of business and consumer spending and investment, capital market activities, competition and interest rate conditions and prevailing market rates in competing market areas.

As changes in interest rates have a direct impact on our financial results, we monitor the actions and guidance provided by the Federal Open Market Committee ("FOMC") as well as certain key rates. During the July 2015 meeting, the FOMC continued to see the risks to the outlook for economic activity and the labor market as nearly balanced. The FOMC reaffirmed that the current 0 to 25 basis point target range for the federal funds rate remains appropriate. The FOMC anticipates that it will be appropriate to raise the target range for the federal funds rate when it has seen further improvement in the labor market and is reasonably confident that inflation will move back to its 2 percent objective over the medium term. The FOMC currently anticipates that, even after unemployment and inflation are near mandate-consistent levels, economic conditions may, for some time, warrant keeping the target federal funds rate below levels the FOMC views as normal in the longer run. We are actively monitoring our interest rate sensitivity and investment duration as it relates to our cash deployment strategy and overall balance sheet. As shown in Item 3, we expect our net interest income would benefit in a rising rate environment.

50

Specifically, our income simulation models indicate our net interest income would increase by approximately 6% and 12%, respectively, based on a 100 and 200 basis point increase in rates over a twelve month period.

Financial Results

As of June 30, 2015, we had total consolidated assets of $1.1 billion, total loans of $764.4 million, total deposits of $921.7 million and shareholders’ equity of $90.6 million. For the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015, our net loss was $797 thousand and $257 thousand, respectively, resulting in basic and diluted net loss of $0.01 per share for the quarter and basic and diluted net loss of $0.00 per share for the year-to-date period.

As of December 31, 2014, we had total consolidated assets of $1.1 billion, total loans of $663.6 million, total deposits of $905.6 million and stockholders' equity of $90.0 million. For the year ended December 31, 2014, we had net income of $2.4 million, resulting in basic and diluted net income of $0.04 per share.

As of June 30, 2014, we had total consolidated assets of $1.0 billion, total loans of $659.5 million, total deposits of $867.7 million and shareholders’ equity of $86.6 million. For the three and six months endedJune 30, 2014, our net income was $613 thousand and $568 thousand, respectively, resulting in basic and diluted net income of $0.01 per share for the quarter and basic and diluted net income of $0.01 per share for the year-to-date period.

Our profitability is dependent on the ability to generate revenue from net interest income and non-interest income sources. Net interest income is the difference between the interest income we receive on interest-earning assets, such as loans and securities, and the interest expense we pay on interest-bearing liabilities, principally deposits and borrowings. Our net interest income is impacted by the size and mix of our balance sheet components and the interest rate spread between interest earned on assets and interest paid on liabilities. Non-interest income includes fees from deposit fees, including point-of-sale income, trust revenue, mortgage banking income, bank-owned life insurance, gains on sales of loans, and other services which the Bank provides. Results of operations are also affected by the provision for loan losses and non-interest expenses such as salaries and employee benefits, occupancy, professional and legal expenses, and other operating expenses incurred.

Loans— From June 30, 2014 to June 30, 2015, we increased loans by $104.9 million, or 15.9%, with $100.8 million of loan growth for the six months endedJune 30, 2015. As of June 30, 2015, our loan to deposit ratio was 82.9% and our ratio of average loans to average earning assets for the six months endedJune 30, 2015 was 77.3%, achieving our goal of average loans representing at least 75% of average earning assets.

Deposits—Our desire is to primarily fund loan growth through deposit gathering activities. We define pure deposits as all transaction-based accounts, including non-interest bearing demand deposit accounts, interest bearing demand deposit accounts, money market and savings accounts. Leveraging our branches to grow market share with pure deposits will reduce our cost of funds, increase our margin and assist us in increasing profitability as well as reducing interest rate risk. Pure deposits have increased by $20.8 million from December 31, 2014 and increased by $65.3 million from June 30, 2014 to June 30, 2015. As of June 30, 2015, the ratio of pure deposits to total deposits was approximately 59.7%, compared to 58.5% as of December 31, 2014 and 55.9% as of June 30, 2014. Our goal is to achieve a ratio of pure deposits to total deposits of at least 60%. From December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014 to June 30, 2015, brokered deposits have increased by a net of $2.4 million and $20.7 million, respectively. This includes $54.2 million in customer deposits placed and reciprocated through products provided by FSG in partnership with the network of banks associated with services provided by Promontory Interfinancial Network, LLC. We expect to continue to grow pure deposits through increases in products per household and by acquiring new customer relationships, including through cross-selling to new and existing loan customers.

Investment Securities—During the second half of 2013, we transferred certain federal agency, mortgage-based and municipal securities with a fair value of approximately $143 million from the available-for-sale portfolio to the held-to-maturity portfolio. The securities identified primarily consisted of securities with excessive price risk in higher interest rate environments. As of the transfer date, the unrealized holding loss was approximately $8.9 million. This unrealized loss will continue to be reported as a separate component of shareholders' equity and will be amortized over the remaining life of the securities as an adjustment to the yield. The corresponding discount on these securities will offset this adjustment to yield to result in no income statement impact. Subject to prepayment speeds, we anticipate between $1.5 million and $1.8 million of the unrealized loss to be accreted back into shareholders' equity during 2015. For the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015, approximately $627 thousand and $1.0 million, respectively, of the unrealized loss was accreted back into shareholders' equity compared to $453 thousand and $935 thousand, respectively, for the same periods in 2014.

Net Income—For the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015, net interest income increased by $713 thousand and $2.1 million, respectively, and noninterest income decreased by $1.1 million and increased $697 thousand, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2014. For the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015, noninterest expense increased by $47 thousand and $1.0 million, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2014. The increase in net interest income for the six months endedJune 30, 2015 is a direct result of our loan growth as well as reductions in our costs of funds. Noninterest income decreased for the three months ended June 30, 2015 primarily due to a decrease in the gain on sales of loans and a decrease in interest rate swap gains, which are typically offset by the associated derivatives included in non-interest expense. Noninterest

51

income increased for the six months ended June 30, 2015 primarily due to an increase in the gain on sales of loans. Noninterest expense increased for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 primarily due to expenses associated with the Merger, which were $516 thousand and $607 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, partially offset by a decrease in interest rate swap losses, which are typically offset by the derivatives included in other non-interest income. Excluding the interest rate swap (loss) gain, non-interest income decreased by $377 thousand and increased by $328 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively. Excluding the interest rate swap loss (gain), non-interest expense increased by $821 thousand and $661 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2014. Full-time equivalent employees were 265 at June 30, 2015, compared to 264 at June 30, 2014.

Provision—The provision for loan and lease losses totaled $643 thousand and $1.4 million, respectively, for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 compared to a credit, or negative provision of $270 thousand and $1.2 million, respectively, for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2014. The provision expense is based on the quarterly evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan and lease losses, as described below.

Net Interest Margin—Net interest margin for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 was 3.33% and 3.39%, respectively, or 3 basis points and 13 basis points higher than the same periods in 2014 of 3.30% and 3.26%. Given the current rate and competitive environment, additional improvements to our net interest margin will be challenging in 2015. This further emphasizes the importance of maintaining and increasing our level of non-interest income and maintaining a disciplined approach to managing our earning assets and deposit mix. Changes to our net interest margin depends on multiple factors including our ability to raise core deposits, our growth or contraction in loans, our deposit and loan pricing, maturities of brokered deposits, and any possible action by the Federal Reserve Board to the target federal funds rate.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

We reported a net loss for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 of $797 thousand and $257 thousand, respectively, compared to net income of $613 thousand and $568 thousand for the same periods in 2014. For the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015, basic and diluted loss per share was $0.01 and $0.00 on approximately 65.9 million weighted average shares outstanding (for both basic and diluted). For the three and six months ended ended June 30, 2014, basic and diluted income per share was $0.01 on approximately 65.7 million weighted average shares outstanding (for both basic and diluted).

For the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015, our earnings decreased by $1.4 million and $825 thousand, respectively, compared to the same periods for 2014. The decrease for the three months ended June 30, 2015 was primarily due to a combination of merger related expenses and decreases in the gains on sale of securities available-for-sale and gains on sales of loans transferred to held-for-sale. The decrease for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was primarily due to a combination of merger related expenses and a decrease in the gains on sale of securities available-for-sale partially offset by gains on sales of loans transferred to held-for-sale. As of June 30, 2015, we had 26 banking offices, including the headquarters, and 265 full-time equivalent employees.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income (the difference between the interest earned on assets, such as loans and investment securities, and the interest paid on liabilities, such as deposits and other borrowings) is our primary source of operating income. For the quarter ended June 30, 2015, net interest income increased by $713 thousand, or 9.4%, to $8.3 million compared to $7.5 million for the same period in 2014. For the six months endedJune 30, 2015, net interest income increased by $2.1 million, or 14.7%, to $16.6 million compared to $14.5 million for the same period in 2014.

The level of net interest income is determined primarily by the average balances (volume) of interest earning assets and the various rate spreads between our interest earning assets and our funding sources. Changes in net interest income from period to period result from increases or decreases in the volume of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities, increases or decreases in the average interest rates earned and paid on such assets and liabilities, the ability to manage the interest earning asset portfolio (which includes loans), and the availability of particular sources of funds, such as noninterest bearing deposits.

Net Interest Income – Volume and Rate Changes

Net interest income on a fully-tax equivalent basis for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 was $8.3 million and $16.7 million, respectively, an 8.5% and 13.4% increase compared to the same periods in 2014. Average earning assets increased$70.2 million, or 7.6%, and $82.4 million, or 9.0%, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to the same periods in 2014. The overall increase in average earning assets is a direct result of our loan growth. Average loans increased in the second quarter of 2015 by $102.4 million, or 15.2%, and increased for the six months ended June 30, 2015 by $128.0 million, or 20.0%, as compared to the same periods in the prior year. The net impact for changes in volumes of interest earning assets for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 was an increase in interest income of $898 thousand and $2.2 million, respectively. The 14 and 16 basis point decline in loan yield, respectively, was the primary driver in the changes in rates causing a $308 thousand and $677 thousand, respectively, decrease in interest income for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015. The total impact on net interest income from changes in volume and rates was an increase of $649 thousand and $2.0 million, respectively, for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 when compared to the same periods in 2014.

The tax equivalent yield on average earning assets decreased by 3 basis points to 3.83% for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and there was no change for the six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to the same periods in 2014, largely driven by the reallocation and growth in loans. The yield on average loans decreased by 14 and 16 basis points, respectively, to 4.43% and 4.48%, respectively, for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 compared to the same periods in 2014. The yields on average investment securities taxable and investment securities non-taxable decreased by 3 and 57 basis points, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2015 compared to the same period in 2014. For the six months endedJune 30, 2015, the yields on average investment securities and investment securities non-taxable decreased by 7 and 50 basis points, respectively, compared to the same period in 2014. The yields on average other earning assets decreased by 75 and 11 basis points for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 compared to the same periods in 2014.

57

Total interest expense was $1.2 million and $2.3 million for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015, respectively, or 4.5% and 12.5% lower, respectively, than the same periods in 2014. Average interest bearing liabilities increased by $50.2 million and $63.8 million for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2014. Comparing the second quarter of 2015 to the same period in 2014, money market and savings increased by $57.0 million, average brokered deposits increased by $30.9 million while retail certificates of deposits declined by $20.5 million, jumbo certificates of deposit decreased $16.4 million and repurchase agreements and other borrowings decreased by $15.6 million. Comparing the six months endedJune 30, 2015 to the same period in 2014, money market and savings increased by $57.7 million, average brokered deposits increased by $35.2 million, repurchase agreements and other borrowings increased by $3.3 million while retail certificates of deposits declined by $24.1 million and jumbo certificates of deposit decreased $23.8 million The increase in volume increased interest expense by $125 thousand and $315 thousand for the three and six month period ended June 30, 2015, respectively. The reduction in rates decreased interest expense by $183 thousand and $717 thousand for the three and six month period ended June 30, 2015, respectively. This decrease was primarily due to lower rates in brokered deposits, partially offset by an increase in other borrowings. As of April 1, 2015, we entered into a five year, $40 million derivative swap to lock-in longer-term fixed rate funding in anticipation of an increasing rate environment.

We expect average earning assets to grow throughout the remainder of 2015 as we anticipate continued loan growth. The average yield on loans for the remainder of 2015 is anticipated to be consistent with or decline compared to the first six months of 2015 as we continue to operate in a highly competitive rate environment within our markets. We expect our deposits and borrowings to increase consistent with the growth in earning assets. Rates paid on deposits are expected to remain consistent or decline slightly compared to the rates paid in the first quarter.

Net Interest Income – Net Interest Spread and Net Interest Margin

The banking industry uses two key ratios to measure profitability of net interest income: net interest rate spread and net interest margin. The net interest rate spread measures the difference between the average yield on earning assets and the average rate paid on interest bearing liabilities. The net interest rate spread does not consider the impact of noninterest bearing deposits and gives a direct perspective on the effect of market interest rate movements. The net interest margin is defined as net interest income as a percentage of total average earning assets and takes into account the positive effects of investing noninterest bearing deposits in earning assets.

Our net interest rate spread (on a tax equivalent basis) was 3.22% and 3.29% for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015, respectively, compared to 3.18% and 3.14% for the same periods in 2014. Our net interest margin was 3.33% and 3.39% for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 compared to 3.30% and 3.26% for the same periods in 2014. The increase in the net interest spread and net interest margin comparing 2015 to 2014 was a direct result of our balance sheet restructuring that included significant loan growth combined with reductions in high cost deposits. Noninterest bearing deposits contributed 11 and 10 basis points to the margin for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015, and 12 basis points for the three and six month period ended June 30, 2014.

We anticipate our net interest spread and net interest margin to remain consistent or decline compared to 2014 levels due to the current rate and competitive environments in which we operate. Factors that will impact our net interest spread and net interest margin include our ability to grow loans and raise core deposits, our deposit and loan pricing, maturities of brokered deposits, and any possible action by the Federal Reserve Board to adjust the target federal funds rate.

Provision (Credit) for Loan and Lease Losses

The provision for loan and lease losses during the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 was $643 thousand and $1.4 million, respectively, compared to a credit of $270 thousand and $1.2 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2014. Net (recoveries) charge-offs for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 were $(344) thousand and $217 thousand, respectively, compared to net recoveries of $470 thousand and $242 thousand for the same periods in 2014. Annualized net charge-offs (recoveries) as a percentage of average loans were 0.06% for the six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to (0.08)% for the same period in 2014. Our peer group’s average annualized net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans as reported in the Uniform Bank Performance Report at March 31, 2015, the most recent information available, was 0.07%.

The provision for loan and lease losses for the first six months of 2015 was necessary based on our analysis of probable incurred losses in the loan portfolio and the level of net charge-offs. As of June 30, 2015, specific reserves for impaired loans totaled $1.3 million compared to zero as of December 31, 2014 and $514 thousand as of June 30, 2014. At June 30, 2015, our ratio of the allowance to total loans was 1.26% compared to 1.29% at December 31, 2014 and 1.43% at June 30, 2014.

As of June 30, 2015, management determined our allowance of $9.6 million was adequate to provide for probable incurred credit losses, which we describe more fully below in the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses section. We analyze the allowance on at least a quarterly basis, and the next review will be at September 30, 2015.

58

We will provide provision expense as necessary to maintain an allowance level adequate to absorb known and probable incurred losses inherent in our loan portfolio. As the determination of provision expense, or reversal, is a function of the adequacy of the allowance for loan and lease losses, we cannot reasonably estimate the provision impact for the remainder of 2015. Furthermore, the provision expense could materially increase or decrease in 2015 depending on a number of factors, including, among others, the level of net charge-offs or recoveries, the amount of classified loans and value of collateral associated with impaired loans and the level of loan growth realized.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income totaled $1.9 million and $6.4 million for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015, a decrease of $1.1 million, or 37.9%, and an increase of $697 thousand, or 12.3%, respectively, from the same periods in 2014. Excluding the change from the interest rate swap, noninterest income decreased by $377 thousand and increased by $328 thousand, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to the same periods in 2014. The gain or loss on the interest rate swap is typically offset by the associated derivative included in non-interest expense. The quarterly decrease is primarily a result of a decrease in the net gains from sales of loans held-for-sale and no gains on securities available-for-sale. The year-to-date increase is primarily due to an increase in the net gains from sales of loans held-for-sale partially offset by the decrease in gains on sales of securities available-for-sale.

The following table presents the components of noninterest income for the three and six month period ended June 30, 2015 and 2014.

Our largest sources of noninterest income are typically service charges and fees on deposit accounts. Total service charges, including NSF fees, were $728 thousand and $1.4 million for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015, a decrease of $41 thousand and $108 thousand, or 5.3% and 7.2%, respectively, from the same periods in 2014. Service charges and fees on deposit accounts typically correspond to the level and mix of our customer deposits.

Point-of-sale fees increased 6.2% and 5.7% to $466 thousand and $888 thousand, respectively, for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 compared to the same periods in 2014. POS fees are primarily generated when our customers use their debit cards for retail purchases. We anticipate POS fees to continue to grow as customer trends show increased use of debit cards, although it is unclear if certain provisions affecting interchange fees for card issuers included in the Dodd-Frank financial reform legislation will have a future material impact on this product and its revenue.

Bank-owned life insurance income was $232 thousand and $442 thousand for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015, a decrease of $3 thousand and $144 thousand, or 1.3% and 24.6%, respectively, from 2014 levels due to a one-time interest bonus in the first quarter of 2014 for certain policies. FSGBank is the owner and beneficiary of these contracts. The income generated by the cash value of the insurance policies accumulates on a tax-deferred basis and is tax-free to maturity. In addition, the insurance death benefit will be a tax-free payment to FSGBank. On a fully tax-equivalent basis, the weighted average interest rate earned on the policies was approximately 3.79% for the six months endedJune 30, 2015.

Mortgage banking income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 decreased $38 thousand and $6 thousand, or 13.6% and 1.3%, respectively, to $241 thousand and $453 thousand, respectively, compared to $279 thousand and $459 thousand, respectively, in the same periods of 2014. Our process to originate and sell a conforming mortgage in the secondary market typically takes 30 to 60 days from the date of mortgage origination to the date the mortgage is sold to an investor in the secondary market. Due to the normal processing time, we will have a certain amount of held-for-sale loans at any time. Mortgages originated for sale in the secondary market totaled $11.0 million, $23.9 million, and $9.8 million as of June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014, respectively. Mortgages sold in the secondary market totaled $12.5 million, $23.0 million and $9.9 million as of June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014, respectively. We sell these loans with the right to service the loan being released to the purchaser for a fee. Mortgage fee income for the remainder of 2015 will be dependent on market conditions, including the levels of purchase and refinancing activity as well as any movement in long-term rates.

Trust and wealth management fee income increased by $78 thousand, or 33.2%, and $143 thousand, or 32.9%, for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 compared to $235 thousand and $435 thousand for the same periods in 2014. During 2014, we enhanced our product and service offerings to include brokerage services, which has resulted in a positive net contribution. We expect trust fee income to continue increasing during 2015.

There were no net gains on sales of securities available-for-sale for the three months ended June 30, 2015, compared to $247 thousand for the same period in 2014. Net gains on sales of securities available-for-sale for the six months ended June 30, 2015 decreased to $8 thousand from $618 thousand when compared to the same period in 2014. The sales during 2014 were primarily associated with reducing the overall level of liquidity on the balance sheet and further improving our earning asset mix. We do not expect any significant sales activity for the remainder of 2015, although we routinely review our available-for-sale securities and our overall asset-liability sensitivity and may initiate transactions as warranted.

Net gains on sales of loans transferred to held-for-sale for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 were $183 thousand and $1.2 million, respectively, a decrease of 59.3% and an increase of 163.3%, respectively, compared to $450 thousand and $472 thousand for the same periods in 2014. These sales were generated from our TriNet division and government lending department. During the first quarter of 2015, we sold approximately $60.4 million of TriNet loans resulting in income of $1.0 million and sold approximately $150 thousand of SBA loans during the first quarter of 2015 for a gain of approximately $14 thousand. During the second quarter of 2015, we sold approximately $9.5 million of TriNet loans resulting in income of approximately $125 thousand and sold approximately $715 thousand of SBA loans for a gain of approximately $59 thousand. Year-to-date we have sold approximately $69.9 million of TriNet loans resulting in income of $1.2 million and have sold approximately $865 thousand of SBA loans for a gain of approximately $73 thousand. At quarter-end we held $32.7 million in TriNet and SBA loans held-for-sale that we expect to sell during the third quarter of 2015.

Interest rate swap gains for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 were $(635) thousand and $605 thousand, respectively, compared to $137 thousand and $236 thousand for the same periods in 2014. We have entered into loan level swaps to provide our customers with long-term fixed rate loans while entering into associated derivatives to convert the fixed rate cash flows to variable rate cash flows. As shown below, the interest rate swap gains are typically offset by the associated derivatives included in non-interest expense.

Other income for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 was $353 thousand and $743 thousand, respectively, compared to $239 thousand and $509 thousand for the same periods in 2014. The components of other income primarily consist of ATM fee income, underwriting revenue and safe deposit box fee income, repossessions, leased equipment and premises and equipment.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense increased $47 thousand, or 0.5%, and $1.0 million, or 5.0%, to $10.1 million and $21.6 million, respectively, for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015, compared to $10.1 million and $20.5 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2014. Excluding the change in the interest rate swap, noninterest expense increased $821 thousand and $661 thousand, respectively, when comparing the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 to the same periods in 2014. Total noninterest expense increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, primarily due to an increase in professional fees related to the merger. Merger-related expenses totaled $516 thousand and $607 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, and are included in professional fees.

60

The following table represents the components of noninterest expense for the three and six month period ended June 30, 2015 and 2014.

Salaries and benefits for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 increased $94 thousand, or 1.8%, and $240 thousand, or 2.3%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2014. As of June 30, 2015, we had 26 full-service banking offices with 265 full-time equivalent employees. As of June 30, 2014, we had 28 full-service banking offices with 264 full-time equivalent employees.

Occupancy expense decreased $4 thousand, or 0.5%, and $26 thousand, or 1.6%, respectively, for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 compared to the same periods in 2014, primarily as a result of fewer locations. At June 30, 2015, First Security leased six facilities and the land for two branches. As a result, current period occupancy expense is higher than if we owned these facilities, including the real estate, but conversely, we have been able to deploy the capital into earning assets rather than capital expenditures for facilities. We expect occupancy expense to remain consistent with 2014 levels.

Furniture and equipment expense increased $229 thousand, or 44.0%, and $337 thousand, or 31.3%, respectively, for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 compared to the same periods in 2014. This was primarily due to certain non-capitalizable expenses associated with renovations in a Knoxville branch and a new branch in Cleveland, Tennessee.

Professional fees increased $702 thousand and $708 thousand, respectively, for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 compared to the same periods in 2014. Professional fees include fees related to investor relations, outsourcing internal audit and a portion of compliance, as well as external audit, tax services and legal and accounting advice related to, among other things, litigation, merger and acquisitions, lending activities, employee benefit programs, foreclosures and regulatory matters. Merger-related expenses totaled $516 thousand and $607 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively. We expect professional fees to continue to be higher than usual during 2015 due to merger-related expenses.

61

FDIC deposit premium insurance decreased $96 thousand and $165 thousand to $240 thousand and $482 thousand, respectively, for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 compared to the same periods in 2014. We expect the remaining 2015 quarterly deposit premium insurance payments to be consistent with the second quarter 2015 amount.

At foreclosure or repossession, the fair value of the OREO property or repossession is determined and a charge-off to the allowance is recorded, if applicable. Any decreases in value subsequent to the initial determination of fair value are recorded as a write-down. As a general policy, we re-assess the fair value of OREO and repossessions on at least an annual basis or sooner if there are indicators that deterioration in value has occurred. Write-downs are based on property-specific appraisals or valuations. Additionally, we evaluate on an ongoing basis our realization rate compared to the appraised values. Write-downs have declined due to fewer properties currently in OREO. Write-downs on OREO and repossessions decreased $56 thousand, or 73.7%, and $222 thousand, or 57.7%, respectively, for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 compared to the same periods in 2014. Write-downs for the remainder of 2015 are dependent on multiple factors, including, but not limited to, the assumptions used by the independent appraisers, real estate market conditions, and our ability to liquidate properties.

Net losses on OREO, repossessions and fixed assets were $2 thousand and $5 thousand, respectively, for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015. As discussed above, we continue to monitor our fair value assumptions and recognize additional write-downs when appropriate. Generally, gains and losses on the sale of OREO should be minimized by our initial fair value assumptions applied to OREO, as discussed above.

Non-performing asset expenses include, among other items, maintenance, repairs, utilities, taxes and storage costs. These costs decreased $46 thousand, or 25.0%, and $160 thousand, or 39.5%, respectively, for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 compared to the same periods in 2014. Historically, our holding costs have been commensurate with the level of nonperforming assets. We anticipate continued reductions in this category during 2015.

Data processing fees increased 7.7% and decreased 1.5% to $545 thousand and $1.1 million, respectively, for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 compared to the same periods in 2014. The monthly fees associated with data processing are typically based on transaction volume but also reflect cost savings achieved in our data processing contract.

Advertising expense increased 11.1% and 12.6% to $150 thousand and $303 thousand, respectively, for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 compared to the same periods in 2014. During 2014, we entered into a three-year partnership to be the official bank of the University of Tennessee-Chattanooga Athletics. During 2015, we entered into a three-year partnership to be the presenting sponsor of the Chattanooga Lookouts, the AA affiliate of the Minnesota Twins baseball organization. We expect advertising expense to be consistent with current levels.

Insurance expense decreased $59 thousand and $89 thousand to $244 thousand and $539 thousand, respectively, for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 compared to the same periods in 2014. Our ongoing insurance expense has declined as a result of our improved financial and regulatory condition.

Interest rate swap losses (gains) for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 were $(636) thousand and $604 thousand, respectively, compared to $138 thousand and $242 thousand, respectively, for the same periods in 2014. We have entered into loan level swaps to provide our customers with long-term fixed rate loans while entering into associated derivatives to convert the fixed rate cash flows to variable rate cash flows. As shown in the non-interest income section above, the losses are typically offset in full by a corresponding gain recorded in noninterest income.

Other expense decreased $28 thousand and increased $115 thousand, respectively, for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 compared to the same periods in 2014. The changes in other expense are associated with several sub-components and are part of the normal course of conducting business.

Income Taxes

We recorded an income tax provision of $145 thousand and $290 thousand, respectively, for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 compared to an income tax provision of $131 thousand and $263 thousand, respectively, for the same periods in 2014. For the six months ended June 30, 2015, we recorded $586 thousand in additional deferred tax valuation allowance to offset the tax benefits generated during the first six months of 2015, including changes in accumulated other comprehensive income.

A valuation allowance is required when it is “more likely than not” that the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The evaluation requires significant judgment and extensive analysis of all available positive and negative evidence, the forecasts of future income, applicable tax planning strategies and assessments of the current and future economic and business conditions. We identified as positive evidence the improvement in current business trends and the existence of taxes paid in available carryback years. Negative evidence included a cumulative loss in recent years. As conditions change, we will evaluate the need to increase or decrease the valuation allowance. Currently, we anticipate increasing the valuation allowance to offset any future recorded tax benefit to result in minimal, if any, income tax expense or benefit. During the second quarter of 2014, we achieved taxable income with the return to core profitability and further expanded our profitability in the second half of 2014.

62

However, we have recognized a year-to-date loss in 2015. Our ability to improve our level of profitability, combined with forecasts of future income, will provide positive evidence in our quarterly evaluation and analysis of our valuation allowance. As positive evidence builds over multiple quarters, the valuation allowance may be reduced in part or in full.

At June 30, 2015, we evaluated our significant uncertain tax positions. Under the “more-likely-than-not” threshold guidelines, we believe we have identified all significant uncertain tax benefits. We evaluate, on a quarterly basis or sooner if necessary, to determine if new or pre-existing uncertain tax positions are significant. In the event a significant uncertain tax position is determined to exist, penalty and interest will be recorded as a component of income tax expense in our consolidated financial statements.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

As of June 30, 2015, we had total consolidated assets of $1.1 billion, total loans held-for-investment of $764.4 million, loans held-for-sale of $36.1 million, total deposits of $921.7 million and shareholders’ equity of $90.6 million. As of December 31, 2014, we had total consolidated assets of $1.1 billion, total loans of $663.6 million, total deposits of $905.6 million and shareholders' equity of $90.0 million. As of June 30, 2014, we had total assets of $1.0 billion, total loans of $659.5 million, total deposits of $867.7 million and shareholders' equity of $86.6 million.

Loans

As we continue to implement our strategic initiatives, we expect to realize continued growth in our loan portfolio. As of June 30, 2015, total loans increased by $100.8 million, or 15.2%, from December 31, 2014 and increased by $104.9 million, or 15.9%, from June 30, 2014.

The following table presents our loan portfolio by type.

Net loans	$	754,811		$	655,072		$	650,139		15.2	%	16.1	%

Year-to-date, we achieved substantial loan growth with an increase of approximately $100.8 million, or 15.2% (30.6% annualized) when compared to December 31, 2014. Categories driving the growth included: commercial real estate loans increasing $77.4 million, or 24.6% and commercial and industrial loans increasing $24.3 million, or 32.8%.

Comparing June 30, 2015 to June 30, 2014, loans increased $104.9 million, or 15.9%. This increase was primarily due to increases in commercial real estate loans of $80.7 million, or 25.9%, and commercial and industrial loans of $32.3 million, or 49.0%.

We anticipate solid loan growth to continue during the remainder of 2015, as we remain focused on extending prudent loans to creditworthy consumers and businesses. Future loan growth may be restricted by our ability to raise core deposits, although we may use current cash reserves and wholesale funding, as necessary and appropriate. Loan growth may also be restricted by the necessity to maintain appropriate commercial real estate concentration and capital levels.

Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses

The allowance for loan and lease losses reflects our assessment and estimate of the risks associated with extending credit and our evaluation of the quality of the loan portfolio. We regularly analyze our loan portfolio in an effort to establish an allowance that we believe will be adequate in light of anticipated risks and loan losses. In assessing the adequacy of the allowance, we review the size, quality and risk of loans in the portfolio. We also consider such factors as:

• our loan loss experience;

• specific known risks;

• the status and amount of past due and non-performing assets;

• underlying estimated values of collateral securing loans;

• current and anticipated economic conditions; and

• other factors which we believe affect the allowance for potential credit losses.

The allowance is composed of two primary components: (1) specific impairments for substandard/nonaccrual loans and leases and (2) general allocations for classified loan pools, including special mention and substandard/nonaccrual loans, as well as general allocations for the remaining pools of loans. We accumulate pools based on the underlying classification of the collateral. Each pool is assigned a loss severity rate based on historical loss experience and various qualitative and environmental factors, including, but not limited to, credit quality and economic conditions.

The following loan portfolio segments have been identified: (1) Real estate: Residential 1-4 family, (2) Real estate: Commercial, (3) Real estate: Construction, (4) Real estate: Multi-family and farmland, (5) Commercial, (6) Consumer, and (7) Other. We evaluate the risks associated with these segments based upon specific characteristics associated with the loan segments. The risk associated with the Real estate: Construction portfolio is most directly tied to the probability of declines in value of the residential and commercial real estate in our market area and secondarily to the financial capacity of the borrower. The risk associated with the Real estate: Commercial portfolio is most directly tied to the lease rates and occupancy rates for commercial real estate in our market area and secondarily to the financial capacity of the borrower. The other portfolio segments have various risk characteristics, including, but not limited to: the borrower’s cash flow, the value of the underlying collateral, and the capacity of guarantors.

An analysis of the credit quality of the loan portfolio and the adequacy of the allowance for loan and lease losses is prepared jointly by our accounting and credit administration departments and presented to our Board of Directors or the Directors’ Loan Committee on at least a quarterly basis. Based on our analysis, we may determine that our future provision expense needs to increase or decrease in order for us to remain adequately reserved for probable, incurred loan losses. As stated earlier, we make this determination after considering both quantitative and qualitative factors under appropriate regulatory and accounting guidelines.

Our allowance for loan and lease losses is also subject to regulatory examinations and determinations as to adequacy, which may take into account such factors as the methodology used to calculate the allowance and the size of the allowance compared to a group of peer banks. During their routine examinations of banks, the regulators may require a bank to make additional provisions to its allowance for loan losses when, in the opinion of the regulators, their credit evaluations and allowance methodology differ materially from the bank’s methodology. We believe our allowance methodology is in compliance with regulatory inter-agency guidance as well as applicable GAAP guidance.

While it is our policy to charge-off all or a portion of certain loans in the current period when a loss is considered probable, there are additional risks of future losses that cannot be quantified precisely or attributed to particular loans or classes of loans. Because the assessment of these risks includes assumptions regarding local and national economic conditions, our judgment as to the adequacy of the allowance may change from our original estimates as more information becomes available and events change.

Allowance—Loan Pools

As indicated in the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses above, we analyze our allowance by segregating our portfolio into two primary categories: impaired loans and non-impaired loans. Impaired loans are individually evaluated, as further discussed below. Non-impaired loans are segregated first by loan risk rating and then into homogeneous pools based on loan type, collateral or purpose of proceeds. We believe our loan pools conform to regulatory and accounting guidelines.

Impaired loans generally include those loan relationships in excess of $250 thousand with a risk rating of substandard/nonaccrual or doubtful. Prior to the first quarter of 2015, we utilized a threshold of $500 thousand with the same risk ratings as described above. We evaluated the change and determined that it was appropriate given our overall improvement in asset quality and the limited number of relationships going through the detailed impairment analysis using the higher threshold. For the current and prior periods, we believe the change, had it been applied in those prior periods, was not significant to the overall estimation of the allowance. For impaired loans, we determine the impairment based upon one of the following methods: (1) discounted cash flows, (2) observable market pricing or (3) the fair value of the collateral. The amount of the estimated loss,

64

if any, is then specifically reserved in a separate component of the allowance unless the relationship is considered collateral dependent, in which case the estimated loss is charged-off in the current period. The reduction in the dollar threshold increased impaired loans by approximately $729 thousand at June 30, 2015. The change in the dollar threshold also decreased the estimated allowance for loan and lease loss and associated provision expense by approximately $64 thousand for the six months endedJune 30, 2015.

For non-impaired loans, we first segregate special mention and non-impaired substandard loans into two distinct pools. All remaining loans are further segregated into homogeneous pools based on loan type, collateral or purpose of proceeds. Each of these pools is evaluated individually and is assigned a loss factor based on our best estimate of the loss that potentially could be realized in that pool of loans. The loss factor is the sum of an objectively calculated historical loss percentage and a subjectively calculated risk percentage. The actual annual historical loss factor is typically a weighted average of each period’s loss. For the historical loss factor, we utilize a migration loss analysis. Each period may be assigned a different weight depending on certain trends and circumstances. The subjectively calculated risk percentage is the sum of eight qualitative and environmental risk categories. These categories are evaluated separately for each pool. The eight risk categories are: (1) underlying collateral value, (2) lending practices and policies, (3) local and national economies, (4) portfolio volume and nature, (5) staff experience, (6) credit quality, (7) loan review and (8) competition, regulatory and legal issues.

From time to time, we may include an unallocated component to the allowance. Generally, an unallocated allowance assists in mitigating inherent risks that cannot be quantitatively or qualitatively determined, including, but not limited to, new loan products for which insufficient history exists for a robust analysis.

Allowance—Loan Risk Ratings

A consistent and appropriate loan risk rating methodology is a critical component of the allowance. We classify loans as: pass, special mention, substandard/impaired, substandard/non-impaired, doubtful or loss. The following describes our loan classifications and the various risk indicators associated with each risk rating.

A pass rating is assigned to those loans that are performing as contractually agreed and do not exhibit the characteristics of the criticized and classified risk ratings as defined below. Pass loan pools do not include the unfunded portions of binding commitments to lend, standby letters of credit, deposit secured loans or mortgage loans originated with commitments to sell in the secondary market. Loans secured by segregated deposits held by FSGBank are not required to have an allowance reserve, nor are originated held-for-sale mortgage loans pending sale in the secondary market.

A special mention loan risk rating is considered criticized but is not considered as severe as a classified loan risk rating. Special mention loans contain one or more potential weakness(es), which if not corrected, could result in an unacceptable increase in credit risk at some future date. These loans may be characterized by the following risks and/or trends:

Loans to Businesses:

• Downward trend in sales, profit levels and margins

• Impaired working capital position compared to industry

• Cash flow strained in order to meet debt repayment schedule

• Technical defaults due to noncompliance with financial covenants

• Recurring trade payable slowness

• High leverage compared to industry average with shrinking equity cushion

• Questionable abilities of management

• Weak industry conditions

• Inadequate or outdated financial statements

Loans to Businesses or Individuals:

• Loan delinquencies and overdrafts may occur

• Original source of repayment questionable

• Documentation deficiencies may not be easily correctable

• Loan may need to be restructured

• Collateral or guarantor offers adequate protection

• Unsecured debt to tangible net worth is excessive

A substandard loan risk rating is characterized as having specifically identified weaknesses and deficiencies typically resulting from severe adverse trends of a financial, economic, or managerial nature, and may warrant non-accrual status. Substandard loans have a greater likelihood of loss and may require a protracted work-out plan. Substandard/impaired loans are relationships in excess of $250 thousand and are individually reviewed. In addition to the factors listed for special mention loans, substandard loans may be characterized by the following risks and/or trends:

65

Loans to Businesses:

• Sustained losses that have severely eroded equity and cash flows

• Concentration in illiquid assets

• Serious management problems or internal fraud

• Chronic trade payable slowness; may be placed on COD or collection by trade creditor

• Inability to access other funding sources

• Financial statements with adverse opinion or disclaimer; may be received late

• Insufficient documented cash flows to meet contractual debt service requirements

Loans to Businesses or Individuals:

• Chronic or severe delinquency or has met the retail classification standards which is generally past dues greater than 90 days

• Frequent overdrafts

• Likelihood of bankruptcy exists

• Serious documentation deficiencies

• Reliance on secondary sources of repayment which are presently considered adequate

• Demand letter sent

• Litigation may have been filed against the borrower

Loans with a risk rating of doubtful are individually analyzed to determine our best estimate of the loss based on the most recent assessment of all available sources of repayment. Doubtful loans are considered impaired and placed on nonaccrual. For doubtful loans, the collection or liquidation in full of principal and/or interest is highly questionable or improbable. We estimate the specific potential loss based upon an individual analysis of the relationship risks, the borrower’s cash flow, the borrower’s management and any underlying secondary sources of repayment. The amount of the estimated loss, if any, is then either specifically reserved in a separate component of the allowance or charged-off. In addition to the characteristics listed for substandard loans, the following characteristics apply to doubtful loans:

Loans to Businesses:

• Normal operations are severely diminished or have ceased

• Seriously impaired cash flow

• Numerous exceptions to loan agreement

• Outside accountant questions entity’s survivability as a “going concern”

• Financial statements may be received late, if at all

• Material legal judgments filed

• Collection of principal and interest is impaired

• Collateral/Guarantor may offer inadequate protection

Loans to Businesses or Individuals:

• Original repayment terms materially altered

• Secondary source of repayment is inadequate

• Asset liquidation may be in process with all efforts directed at debt retirement

• Documentation deficiencies not correctable

The consistent application of the above loan risk rating methodology ensures we have the ability to track historical losses and appropriately estimate potential future losses in our allowance. Additionally, appropriate loan risk ratings assist us in allocating credit and special asset personnel in the most effective manner. Significant changes in loan risk ratings can have a material impact on the allowance and thus a material impact on our financial results by requiring significant increases or decreases in provision expense.

¹ Represents the percentage of loans in each category to total loans.

Nonperforming loans were $8.2 million, $4.4 million and $6.0 million at June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014, and June 30, 2014, respectively. When comparing June 2015 to December 2014, non-performing loans increased by $3.7 million, and when compared to June 2014, non-performing loans have increased $2.2 million. The increase in non-performing loans for the first six months of 2015 was primarily due to one commercial loan relationship being placed into non-accrual status. Our ratio of non-performing loans to total loans was 1.07% as of June 30, 2015 as compared to 0.67% as of December 31, 2014 and 0.91% as of June 30, 2014.

The combination of asset quality trends as well as low loss rates for the prior year resulted in a reduction in our allowance-to-loans ratio to 1.26% at June 30, 2015, compared to 1.29% at December 31, 2014 and 1.43% at June 30, 2014. We anticipate that our allowance model will support a consistent allowance-to-loans ratio with continuation of the current asset quality and charge-off trends; however, we may need to provide additional provision expense and increase our allowance in the future due to the expected loan growth.

We utilize a risk rating system to evaluate the credit risk of our loan portfolio. We classify loans as: pass, special mention, substandard, doubtful or loss. We assign a pass rating to loans that are performing as contractually agreed and do not exhibit the characteristics of heightened credit risk. A special mention risk rating is assigned to loans that are criticized but not considered to have weaknesses as serious as those of a classified loan. Special mention loans generally contain one or more potential weaknesses, which if not corrected, could result in an unacceptable increase in the credit risk at some future date. A substandard risk rating is assigned to loans that have specifically identified weaknesses and deficiencies typically resulting from severe adverse trends of a financial, economic or managerial nature and may require nonaccrual status. Substandard loans have a greater likelihood of loss. We assign a doubtful risk rating to loans that the collection or liquidation in full of principal and/or interest is highly questionable or improbable. Any loans that are assigned a risk rating of loss are fully charged-off in the period of the downgrade.

We segregate substandard loans into two classifications based on our allowance methodology for impaired loans. An impaired loan is defined as a substandard loan relationship in excess of $250 thousand that is also on nonaccrual status. These relationships are individually reviewed on a quarterly basis to determine the required allowance or loss, as applicable.

For the allowance analysis, the primary categories are: pass, special mention, substandard – non-impaired, and substandard – impaired. Loans in the substandard and doubtful loan categories are combined and impaired loans are segregated from non-impaired loans.

The following tables present our internal risk rating by loan classification as utilized in the allowance analysis as of June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014:

We classify a loan as impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impaired loans were $5.2 million at June 30, 2015, $1.3 million at December 31, 2014 and $2.3 million at June 30, 2014. For impaired loans, any payments made by the borrower are generally applied directly to principal.

69

The allowance associated with specific impaired loans totaled $1.3 million as of June 30, 2015, compared to zero as of December 31, 2014 and $514 thousand as of June 30, 2014. General reserves totaled $8.3 million as of June 30, 2015, compared to $8.6 million as of December 31, 2014 and $8.9 million as of June 30, 2014. Specific reserves are based on our evaluation of each impaired relationship. The general reserve is determined by applying the historical loss factor and qualitative and environmental factors to the applicable loan pools. Our allowance as a percentage of total loans has decreased mostly due to an increase in loans that have lower qualitative and environmental risk associated with them. The ratio of the general reserves to the applicable loan pools has declined from 1.40% as of June 30, 2014 and 1.29% as of December 31, 2014 to 1.10% as of June 30, 2015.

We believe that the allowance for loan and lease losses as of June 30, 2015 is sufficient to absorb probable incurred losses in the loan portfolio based on our assessment of the information available, including the results of extensive internal and independent reviews of our loan portfolio, as discussed in the Asset Quality and Non-Performing Assets section below. Our assessment involves uncertainty and judgment; therefore, the level of the allowance as compared to total loans may be subject to change in future periods. In addition, bank regulatory authorities, as part of their periodic examinations, may require additional charges to the provision for loan losses in future periods if the results of their reviews warrant.

Asset Quality and Non-Performing Assets

As of June 30, 2015, our allowance for loan and lease losses as a percentage of total loans was 1.26%, which is a decrease from the 1.29% as of December 31, 2014 and a decrease from 1.43% as of June 30, 2014.  Net charge-offs (recoveries) as a percentage of average loans (annualized) was 0.06% for the six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to (0.08)% for the same period in 2014. As of June 30, 2015, non-performing assets increased to $12.6 million, or 1.15% of total assets, from $9.0 million, or 0.84% of total assets as of December 31, 2014 and decreased from $13.7 million, or 1.35% of total assets as of June 30, 2014. Our total non-performing loans as of June 30, 2015 increased by $3.7 million, or 83.5%, and $2.2 million, or 36.6%, respectively, when compared to December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014. Our total nonperforming assets as of June 30, 2015 increased by $3.6 million, or 40.5%, and decreased $1.1 million, or 8.0%, respectively, when compared to December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014. The allowance as a percentage of total non-performing loans was 117.63% as of June 30, 2015 compared to 192.22% at December 31, 2014 and 157.35% at June 30, 2014.

Special mention loans decreased $3.2 million, or 22.2%, from $14.4 million as of December 31, 2014 to $11.2 million as of June 30, 2015. Comparing June 30, 2015 to June 30, 2014, special mention loans decreased by $5.8 million, or 34.3%. Substandard loans increased $3.1 million, or 23.2%, from $13.5 million at December 31, 2014 to $16.7 million at June 30, 2015. Comparing June 30, 2015 to June 30, 2014, substandard loans decreased by $1.4 million, or 7.7%. The increase in substandard loans as of June 30, 2015 was primarily due to the downgrade of one loan relationship. We have achieved steady reductions in other real estate owned. OREO declined by $70 thousand, or 1.6%, from $4.5 million as of December 31, 2014 to $4.4 million as of June 30, 2015. Comparing June 30, 2015 to June 30, 2014, OREO declined by $3.3 million, or 42.5%. This is a direct result of our efforts to liquidate and sell our OREO properties as well as reduced inflows into OREO.

70

Nonperforming assets include nonaccrual loans, loans past-due over ninety days and still accruing, restructured loans, OREO and repossessed assets. The following table, which includes both loans held-for-sale and loans held-for-investment, presents our non-performing assets and related ratios.

Nonaccrual loans totaled $6.7 million, $4.3 million and $4.9 million as of June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014, respectively.  We place loans on nonaccrual when we have concerns related to our ability to collect the loan principal and interest, and generally when loans are 90 or more days past due. As of June 30, 2015, we are not aware of any additional material loans that we have doubts as to the collectability of principal and interest that are not classified as nonaccrual. As previously described, we have individually reviewed each nonaccrual loan in excess of $250 thousand for possible impairment. We measure impairment by adjusting loans to either the present value of expected cash flows, the fair value of the collateral or observable market prices.

71

As of June 30, 2015, nonaccrual loans increased by $2.4 million, or 55.1%, compared to December 31, 2014. Comparing June 30, 2015 to December 31, 2014, nonaccrual commercial and industrial loans increased by $2.2 million and commercial real estate nonaccrual loans increased by $868 thousand. The increase in commercial and industrial nonaccrual loans is primarily related to the downgrade of one relationship during the second quarter of 2015. We continue to actively pursue appropriate strategies to maintain or reduce the current level of nonaccrual loans.

OREO decreased$70 thousand from December 31, 2014 to June 30, 2015.  During the six months endedJune 30, 2015, we sold 12 properties resulting in proceeds of $1.1 million. We expect continued OREO resolutions during 2015 due to marketing strategies and general stabilization in the real estate markets in our footprint.

Loans 90 days past due and still accruing increased $1.3 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2015 when compared to December 31, 2014. As of June 30, 2015, the $1.4 million in loans 90 days past due and still accruing was composed of $544 thousand in residential real estate loans, $334 thousand in commercial real estate, $169 thousand in construction real estate, $360 thousand in commercial loans and $9 thousand of consumer loans.

Loans 90 days past due and still accruing were $100 thousand as of December 31, 2014. Of these past due loans as of December 31, 2014, residential real estate loans totaled $11 thousand, $68 thousand in construction real estate and $21 thousand in consumer loans.

As of June 30, 2015, loans 90 days past due and still accruing increased $333 thousand when compared to the same period in 2014. As of June 30, 2014, the $1.1 million in loans 90 days past due and still accruing was composed of $716 thousand in residential real estate loans, $188 thousand in commercial real estate loans, $170 thousand in construction real estate loans and $9 thousand in consumer loans.

Total non-performing assets as of the second quarter of 2015 were $12.6 million compared to $9.0 million at December 31, 2014 and $13.7 million at June 30, 2014.

As of June 30, 2015, our asset quality ratios are consistent with or less favorable than our peer group. As previously stated, we monitor our asset quality against our peer group, as defined by all commercial banks with $1 billion to $3 billion in total assets as presented in the UBPR. The following table provides our asset quality ratios and our UBPR peer group ratios as of March 31, 2015, which is the latest available information.

Investment Securities and Other Earning Assets

The composition of our securities portfolio reflects our investment strategy of maintaining an appropriate level of liquidity while providing a relatively stable source of income. Our securities portfolio also provides a balance to interest rate risk and credit risk in other categories of our consolidated balance sheet while providing a vehicle for investing available funds, furnishing liquidity and supplying securities to pledge as required collateral for certain deposits and borrowed funds. Currently, our investments are classified as either available-for-sale or held-to-maturity.  During 2013 and 2014 we sold approximately $120.5 million of investments primarily to redeploy the funds into loans. There may be additional sales of securities classified as available-for-sale in 2015 as deemed appropriate.

Available-for-sale securities totaled $90.6 million at June 30, 2015, $95.6 million at December 31, 2014 and $102.4 million at June 30, 2014. Held-to-maturity securities totaled $115.7 million at June 30, 2015, $124.5 million at December 31, 2014 and $130.7 million at June 30, 2014. We maintain a level of securities to provide an appropriate level of liquidity and to provide a proper balance to our interest rate and credit risk in our loan portfolio. The decrease in securities available-for-sale of $5.0 million at June 30, 2015 from December 31, 2014, reflects the sale of securities as well as the redeployment of cash flows from principal payments into loans. At June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014, the available-for-sale securities portfolio had gross unrealized gains of approximately $649 thousand, $849 thousand and $962 thousand, and gross unrealized

72

losses of approximately $546 thousand, $367 thousand and $854 thousand, respectively. At June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014, the held-to maturity securities had gross unrecognized gains of approximately $3.8 million, $3.9 million and $2.8 million and gross unrecognized losses of approximately $744 thousand, $305 thousand and $477 thousand, respectively. Our securities portfolio at June 30, 2015 consisted of tax-exempt municipal securities, federal agency bonds, federal agency issued Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduits (REMICs), federal agency issued pools, collateralized loan obligations and corporate bonds.

The following tables provides the amortized cost of our available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities by their stated maturities (this maturity schedule excludes security prepayment and call features), as well as the tax equivalent yields for each maturity range.

We currently have the ability and intent to hold our available-for-sale investment securities to maturity. However, should conditions change, we may sell unpledged securities. We consider the overall quality of the securities portfolio to be high. All securities held are historically traded in liquid markets, except for one bond, which is valued utilizing Level 3 inputs. The Level 3 security was a pooled trust preferred security with a book value of $61 thousand.

As of June 30, 2015, we performed an impairment assessment of the available-for-sale securities in the portfolio and the held-to-maturity portfolio that had an unrealized losses to determine whether the decline in the fair value of these securities below their cost was other-than-temporary. Under authoritative accounting guidance, impairment is considered other-than-temporary if any of the following conditions exists: (1) we intend to sell the security, (2) it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis or (3) we do not expect to recover the security’s entire amortized cost basis, even if we do not intend to sell. Additionally, accounting guidance requires that for impaired available-for-sale securities that we do not intend to sell and/or that it is not more-likely-than-not that we will have to sell prior to recovery but for which credit losses exist, the other-than-temporary impairment should be separated between the total impairment related to credit losses, which should be recognized in current earnings, and the amount of impairment related to all other factors, which should be recognized in other comprehensive income. Losses related to held-to-maturity securities are not recorded, as these securities are carried at their amortized cost. If a decline is determined to be other-than-temporary due to credit losses, the

73

cost basis of the individual available-for-sale or held-to-maturity security is written down to fair value, which then becomes the new cost basis. The new cost basis would not be adjusted in future periods for subsequent recoveries in fair value, if any.

In evaluating the recovery of the entire amortized cost basis, we consider factors such as (1) the length of time and the extent to which the market value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, including events specific to the issuer or industry, (3) defaults or deferrals of scheduled interest, principal or dividend payments and (4) external credit ratings and recent downgrades.

As of June 30, 2015, gross unrealized losses in the Company’s available-for-sale portfolio totaled $546 thousand, compared to $367 thousand as of December 31, 2014 and $854 thousand as of June 30, 2014. As of June 30, 2015, gross unrecognized losses in the Company's held-to-maturity portfolio totaled $744 thousand compared to $305 thousand as of December 31, 2014 and $477 thousand as of June 30, 2014. As of June 30, 2015, the available-for-sale securities unrealized losses in mortgage-backed securities (consisting of nineteen securities), municipals (consisting of three security) and the held-to-maturity unrecognized losses in mortgage-backed securities (consisting of nine securities), municipals (consisting of four securities) and federal agencies (consisting of eight securities) are primarily due to widening credit spreads and changes in interest rates subsequent to purchase. Between June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2015, the rate on the 10-year U.S. Treasury decreased from approximately 2.53% to 2.35%. As this represented a decrease in interest rates, the market valuation of the Company's securities adjusted accordingly. The unrealized loss in other available-for-sale securities relates to two corporate notes. The unrealized loss in the corporate notes is primarily due to changes in interest rates subsequent to purchase. The Company does not intend to sell the available-for-sale investments with unrealized losses and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the available-for-sale investments before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be maturity. Based on results of the Company’s impairment assessment, the unrealized losses related to the available-for-sale securities and the unrecognized losses related to the held-to-maturity securities at June 30, 2015 are considered temporary.

On December 10, 2013, the Federal Reserve and other regulators jointly issued a proposed rule implementing requirements of a new Section 13 to the Bank Holding Company Act, commonly referred to as the “Volcker Rule.” We continue to monitor and review applicable regulatory guidance on the implementation of the Volcker Rule. The Federal Reserve Board granted an extension for conformance until July 21, 2017 and announced that it intends to exercise its authority to give banking entities two additional one-year extensions to conform their ownership interests in and sponsorship of certain collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”) covered by the Volcker Rule.

As of June 30, 2015, we have identified approximately $16.0 million of CLOs within its investment security portfolio that may be impacted by the Volcker Rule. If these securities are deemed to be prohibited bank investments, we would have to sell the securities prior to the compliance date of July 21, 2017 or any applicable extensions. At this time, we anticipate that our CLOs will have significant principal reductions prior to the conformity date and therefore, we currently intend to continue to hold these securities. The unrealized gain as of June 30, 2015 for the CLOs totaled $14 thousand.

As of June 30, 2015, we owned securities from issuers in which the aggregate amortized cost from such issuers exceeded 5% of our shareholders’ equity. The following table presents the amortized cost and market value of the securities from each such issuer as of June 30, 2015.

	Amortized Cost		Market Value
	(in thousands)
Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA)	$	49,464	$	48,996
Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC)	$	21,214	$	21,227
Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA)	$	29,579	$	29,357

We held no federal funds sold as of June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 or June 30, 2014. As of June 30, 2015, we held $6.0 million in interest bearing deposits, primarily at the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta, compared to $29.6 million at December 31, 2014 and $16.5 million as of June 30, 2014. The yield on our account at the Federal Reserve Bank is approximately 25 basis points.

At June 30, 2015, we held $29.5 million in bank-owned life insurance, compared to $29.2 million at December 31, 2014 and $28.8 million at June 30, 2014.

Deposits and Other Borrowings

As of June 30, 2015, total deposits increased by 1.8% (3.6% annualized) from December 31, 2014 and increased by 6.2% from June 30, 2014. The increase from December 31, 2014 was primarily due to the increase in noninterest bearing demand accounts and savings and money market accounts offset by reductions in our retail and jumbo certificates of deposit. The increase from June 30, 2014 was principally a result of increases in our noninterest and interest bearing demand accounts, savings and money market accounts and brokered deposits partially offset by reductions in our retail and jumbo certificates of deposit. Excluding brokered deposits, our deposits increased by 1.7% (3.4% annualized) from December 31, 2014 and increased 4.3% from June 30, 2014. In the first six months of 2015, noninterest bearing demand deposits increased by 5.9% and interest bearing demand deposits remained consistent compared to December 31, 2014. Retail and jumbo certificates of deposit declined by 4.1% and 0.8%, respectively, when comparing June 30, 2015 to December 31, 2014. We define our core deposits to include interest bearing and noninterest bearing demand deposits, savings and money market accounts, as well as retail certificates of deposit with denominations less than $100,000. Core deposits increased by $14.6 million, or 2.1% (4.3% annualized), from December 31, 2014. We consider our retail certificates of deposit to be a stable source of funding because they are in-market, relationship-oriented deposits. Core deposit growth is an important tenet of our business strategy.

In addition to brokered certificates of deposits, FSGBank, in partnership with with the network banks associated with Promontory Interfinancial Network, LLC, is a member bank of the Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service® ("CDARS") and the Insured Cash Sweep® ("ICS") networks. CDARS is a network of banks that allows customers’ CDs to receive full FDIC insurance of up to $50 million. Additionally, members have the opportunity to purchase or sell one-way time deposits. ICS is a network of banks that allow customer transaction accounts to receive multi-million-dollar FDIC insurance coverage. As of June 30, 2015, our CDARS balance consists of $15.8 million in reciprocal customer accounts. As of June 30, 2015, our ICS balance was $54.2 million in reciprocal customer accounts.

As of June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014, we had no Federal funds purchased.

Securities sold under agreements to repurchase with commercial checking customers were $14.0 million as of June 30, 2015, compared to $12.8 million and $15.9 million as of December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014, respectively.

As a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati ("FHLB"), we have the ability to acquire short and long-term advances through a blanket agreement secured by our unencumbered qualifying 1-4 family first mortgage loans and by pledging investment securities or individual, qualified loans, subject to approval of the FHLB. At June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014, we had FHLB advances of $65.1 million, $56.0 million and $38.1 million, respectively.

The terms of the FHLB advances as of June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014 are as follows:

Liquidity

Liquidity refers to our ability to adjust future cash flows to meet the needs of our daily operations. We rely primarily on the operations and cash balance of FSGBank to fund the liquidity needs of our daily operations. Our cash balance on deposit with FSGBank, which totaled approximately $4.9 million as of June 30, 2015, is available for funding activities for which FSGBank will not receive direct benefit, such as shareholder relations and holding company operations. These funds should adequately meet our cash flow needs.

The liquidity of FSGBank refers to the ability or financial flexibility to adjust its future cash flows to meet the needs of depositors and borrowers and to fund operations on a timely and cost effective basis. The primary sources of funds for FSGBank are cash generated by repayments of outstanding loans, interest payments on loans and new deposits. Additional liquidity is available from the maturity and earnings on securities and liquid assets, as well as the ability to liquidate available-for-sale securities.

76

As of June 30, 2015, our interest bearing account at the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta totaled approximately $5.9 million. This liquidity is available to fund our contractual obligations and prudent investment opportunities.

As of June 30, 2015, FSGBank had $152.7 million of total borrowing capacity at FHLB with all 1-4 family residential mortgages and certain investment securities pledged as collateral as well as the amount of FHLB stock we own. The available borrowing capacity totaled $165.7 million at December 31, 2014 and $177.9 million at June 30, 2014.

Another source of funding is loan participations sold to other commercial banks (in which we retain the servicing rights). As of quarter-end, we had approximately $61.1 million in loan participations sold. FSGBank may sell loan participations as a source of liquidity. An additional source of short-term funding would be to pledge investment securities against a line of credit at a commercial bank. As of quarter-end, FSGBank had $147.2 million in investment securities pledged for repurchase agreements, treasury tax and loan deposits, and public-fund deposits attained in the ordinary course of business. As of June 30, 2015, our unpledged available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities totaled $29.1 million and $30.0 million, respectively.

Additionally, we had $92.5 million in unsecured Federal Reserve lines of credit as of June 30, 2015 that were fully available.

We also utilize brokered deposits to provide an additional source of funding. As of June 30, 2015, we had $37.7 million in brokered CDs outstanding with a weighted average remaining life of approximately 26 months, a weighted average coupon rate of 1.91% and a weighted average all-in cost (which includes fees paid to deposit brokers) of 1.92%. Our CDARS product had $15.8 million at June 30, 2015, with a weighted average coupon rate of 0.61% and a weighted average remaining life of approximately 18 months. Our certificates of deposit greater than $100 thousand were generated in our communities and are considered relatively stable.

Management believes that our liquidity sources are adequate to meet our current operating needs. We continue to study our contingency funding plans and update them as needed paying particular attention to the sensitivity of our liquidity and deposit base to positive and negative changes in our asset quality.

The following table illustrates our significant contractual obligations at June 30, 2015 by future payment period.

1. Time deposits give customers rights to early withdrawal which may be subject to penalties. The penalty amount depends on the remaining time to maturity at the time of early withdrawal. For more information regarding certificates of deposit, see “Deposits and Other Borrowings.”

2. We expect securities repurchase agreements to be re-issued and, as such, do not necessarily represent an immediate need for cash.

3. Operating lease obligations include existing and future property and equipment non-cancelable lease commitments.

Net cash provided by operations during the first six months of 2015 totaled $2.3 million compared to net cash provided by operations of $1.8 million for the same period in 2014. The increase in net cash provided by operations was primarily due to the change in other assets and liabilities. Net cash used in investing activities totaled $53.0 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2015, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $29.2 million for the same period in 2014. The increase in cash used is primarily associated with an increase in our loan originations of $17.5 million and a decrease in our sales of available-for-sale securities of $62.5 million for the first six months of 2015 when compared to the same period in 2014, partially offset by an increase in proceeds from sales of loans of $56.0 million. Net cash provided by financing activities was $26.5 million for the first six months of 2015 compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $31.9 million in the

77

comparable 2014 period. The decrease in cash provided by financing activities is primarily related to the decrease in FHLB borrowings partially offset by an increase in deposits.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We are party to credit-related financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of our customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit. Such commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets.

Our exposure to credit loss is represented by the contractual amount of these commitments. We follow the same credit policies in making commitments as we do for on-balance sheet instruments.

The following table discloses our maximum exposure to credit risk for unfunded loan commitments and standby letters of credit at the dates indicated.

	As of
	June 30, 2015		December 31, 2014		June 30, 2014
	(in thousands)
Commitments to extend credit - fixed rate	$	43,796	$	37,819	$	35,290
Commitments to extend credit - variable rate	110,317		94,568		96,417
Total Commitments to extend credit	$	154,113	$	132,387	$	131,707
Standby letters of credit	$	3,633	$	3,272	$	3,591

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to customers. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of fees. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. We evaluate each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral, if any, we obtain on an extension of credit is based on our credit evaluation of the customer. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property and equipment and income-producing commercial properties.

Capital Resources

Banks and bank holding companies, as regulated institutions, must meet required levels of capital. The OCC and the Federal Reserve, the primary federal regulators for FSGBank and First Security, respectively, have adopted minimum capital regulations or guidelines that categorize components and the level of risk associated with various types of assets. Financial institutions are expected to maintain a level of capital commensurate with the risk profile assigned to their assets in accordance with the guidelines.

Regulatory capital guidelines require that capital be measured in relation to the credit and market risks of both on- and off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. On January 1, 2015, the Company became subject to Basel III rules, which include transition provisions through January 1, 2019. Under Basel III, total capital consist of two tiers of capital, Tier 1 and Tier 2. Tier 1 capital is further composed of Common Equity Tier 1 Capital and additional Tier 1 capital.

The transition provisions include important differences in determining the composition of regulatory capital between the Basel I Rules and Basel III rules including, changes in capital deductions related to the Company's deferred tax assets and defined benefit pension assets, and the inclusion of unrealized gains and losses on AFS debt and certain marketable equity securities recorded in accumulated OCI. These changes will be impacted by, among other things, future changes in interest rates, overall earnings performance and company actions. Changes to the composition of regulatory capital under Basel III, as compared to the Basel I rules, are recognized in 20 percent annual increments, and will be fully recognized as of January 1, 2019. When presented on a fully phased-in basis, capital, risk-weighted assets and the capital ratios assume all regulatory capital adjustments and deductions are fully recognized.

Common Equity Tier 1 Capital primarily includes qualifying common shareholders' equity, retained earnings, accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI"), subject to the AOCI opt-out election, and certain minority interest. Goodwill, disallowed intangible assets and certain disallowed deferred tax assets are excluded from Common Equity Tier 1 Capital. The AOCI opt-out election is a one-time election about a Company's desire to include or exclude certain unrealized gains and losses from regulatory capital. We have selected to opt-out for this election thus excluding most components of AOCI in Common equity tier 1 capital.

78

Additional Tier 1 capital primarily includes qualifying non-cumulative preferred stock, trust preferred securities subject to phase-out and certain minority interests. Certain deferred tax assets are also excluded.

Tier 2 capital primarily consists of qualifying subordinated debt, a limited portion of the allowance for loan and lease losses, trust preferred securities subject to phase-out and reserves for unfunded lending commitments. The Company's total capital is the sum of Tier 1 capital plus Tier 2 capital.

To meet adequately capitalized regulatory requirements, an institution must maintain a Common Equity Tier 1 Capital of 4.5%, Tier 1 capital ratio of 6.0% and a Total capital ratio of 8.0%. A “well-capitalized” institution must generally maintain capital ratios 200 bps higher than the minimum guidelines. The risk-based capital rules have been further supplemented by a Tier 1 leverage ratio, defined as Tier 1 capital divided by quarterly average total assets, after certain adjustments. The Bank must maintain a Tier 1 leverage ratio of at least 5.0% to be classified as “well capitalized.” Failure to meet the capital requirements established by the joint agencies can lead to certain mandatory and discretionary actions by regulators that could have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements. Currently, our capital ratios exceed the minimum capital requirements to be considered "well-capitalized."

The Basel III rules also introduced a capital conservation buffer which will be phased in over four years beginning on January 1, 2016, with a maximum buffer of 0.625% of risk-weighted assets for 2016, 1.25% for 2017, 1.875% for 2018, and 2.5% for 2019 and thereafter. Failure to maintain the required capital conservation buffer will result in limitations on capital distributions and on discretionary bonuses to executive officers.

EFFECTS OF GOVERNMENTAL POLICIES

We are affected by the policies of regulatory authorities, including the Federal Reserve Board and the OCC. An important function of the Federal Reserve Board is to regulate the national money supply.

Among the instruments of monetary policy used by the Federal Reserve Board are: purchases and sales of U.S. Government securities in the marketplace; changes in the discount rate, which is the rate any depository institution must pay to borrow from the Federal Reserve Board; and changes in the reserve requirements of depository institutions. These instruments are effective in influencing economic and monetary growth, interest rate levels and inflation.

The monetary policies of the Federal Reserve Board and other governmental policies have had a significant effect on the operating results of commercial banks in the past and are expected to continue to do so in the future. Because of changing conditions in the national and international economy and in the money market, as well as the result of actions by monetary and fiscal authorities, it is not possible to predict with certainty future changes in interest rates, deposit levels or loan demand or whether the changing economic conditions will have a positive or negative effect on operations and earnings.

Legislation from time to time is introduced in the United States Congress and the Tennessee General Assembly and other state legislatures, and regulations are proposed by the regulatory agencies that could affect our business. It cannot be predicted whether or in what form any of these proposals will be adopted or the extent to which our business may be affected thereby.

Restrictions on Transactions with Affiliates

First Security and FSGBank are subject to the provisions of Section 23A of the Federal Reserve Act. Section 23A places limits on the amount of:

• a bank’s loans or extensions of credit to affiliates;

• a bank’s investment in affiliates;

• assets a bank may purchase from affiliates, except for real and personal property exempted by the Federal Reserve;

• loans or extensions of credit to third parties collateralized by the securities or obligations of affiliates; and

• a bank’s guarantee, acceptance or letter of credit issued on behalf of an affiliate.

The total amount of the above transactions is limited in amount, as to any one affiliate, to 10% of a bank’s capital and surplus and, as to all affiliates combined, to 20% of a bank’s capital and surplus. In addition to the limitation on the amount of these transactions, each of the above transactions must also meet specified collateral requirements. We must also comply with other provisions designed to avoid the taking of low-quality assets.

First Security and FSGBank are also subject to the provisions of Section 23B of the Federal Reserve Act which, among other things, prohibit an institution from engaging in the above transactions with affiliates unless the transactions are on terms substantially the same, or at least as favorable to the institution or its subsidiaries, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with nonaffiliated companies.

The Dodd-Frank Act enhances the requirements for certain transactions with affiliates under Section 23A and 23B, including an expansion of the definition of “covered transactions” and increasing the amount of time for which collateral requirements regarding covered transactions must be maintained.

FSGBank is also subject to restrictions on extensions of credit to its executive officers, directors, principal shareholders, and their related interests. These extensions of credit (1) must be made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with third parties, and (2) must not involve more than the normal risk of repayment or present other unfavorable features. Effective July 21, 2011, an insured depository institution is prohibited from engaging in asset purchases or sales transactions with its officers, directors or principal shareholders unless (1) the transaction is on market terms and (2) if the transaction represents greater than 10% of the capital and surplus of the bank, a majority of disinterested directors has approved the transaction.

Limitations on Senior Executive Compensation

In June of 2010, federal banking regulators issued guidance designed to help ensure that incentive compensation policies at banking organizations do not encourage excessive risk-taking or undermine the safety and soundness of the organization. In connection with this guidance, the regulatory agencies announced that they will review incentive compensation arrangements as part of the regular, risk-focused supervisory process.

Regulatory authorities may also take enforcement action against a banking organization if its incentive compensation arrangement or related risk management, control, or governance processes pose a risk to the safety and soundness of the organization and the organization is not taking prompt and effective measures to correct the deficiencies. To ensure that incentive compensation arrangements do not undermine safety and soundness at insured depository institutions, the incentive compensation guidance sets forth the following key principles:

• incentive compensation arrangements should provide employees incentives that appropriately balance risk and financial results in a manner that does not encourage employees to expose the organization to imprudent risk;

• incentive compensation arrangements should be compatible with effective controls and risk management; and

• incentive compensation arrangements should be supported by strong corporate governance, including active and effective oversight by the board of directors.

Proposed Legislation and Regulatory Action

New regulations and statutes are regularly proposed that contain wide-ranging potential changes to the structures, regulations and competitive relationships of financial institutions operating and doing business in the United States. We cannot predict whether or in what form any proposed regulation or statute will be adopted or the extent to which our business may be affected by any new regulation or statute.

81

Effect of Governmental Monetary Policies

Our earnings are affected by domestic economic conditions and the monetary and fiscal policies of the United States government and its agencies. The Federal Reserve Board’s monetary policies have had, and are likely to continue to have, an important impact on the operating results of commercial banks through its power to implement national monetary policy in order, among other things, to curb inflation or combat a recession. The monetary policies of the Federal Reserve Board, including its ongoing "Quantitative Easing" program, affect the levels of bank loans, investments and deposits through its control over the issuance of United States government securities, its regulation of the discount rate applicable to member banks and its influence over reserve requirements to which member banks are subject. We cannot predict the nature or impact of future changes in monetary and fiscal policies.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Accounting Standards Update 2014-04, Receivables - Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors - Reclassification of Residual Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans Upon Foreclosure. In January 2014, the FASB amended this existing guidance to clarify when a creditor should be considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan such that the loan should be derecognized and the real estate recognized. These amendments clarify that an in substance repossession or foreclosure occurs, and a creditor is considered to have received physical repossession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan, upon either: 1) the creditor obtaining legal title to the residential real estate property upon completion of a foreclosure, or 2) the borrower conveying all interest in the residential real estate property to the creditor to satisfy that loan through completion of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or through similar legal agreement. These amendments are effective for public business entities for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company's operating results or financial condition.

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers." This update is a joint project with the International Accounting Standards Board initiated to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue and to develop a common revenue standard that is meant to remove inconsistencies and weaknesses in revenue requirements, provide a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues, improve comparability of revenue recognition practices, provide more useful information to users of financial statements and simplify the preparation of financial statements. The guidance in this update supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, "Revenue Recognition" and most industry-specific guidance throughout the Industry Topics of Codification. This update is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. We are evaluating the impact of this update and do not believe it will have a significant impact to the consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risk, with respect to us, is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in interest rates and prices. The risk of loss can result in either lower fair market values or reduced net interest income. We manage several types of risk, such as credit, liquidity and interest rate risks. We consider interest rate risk to be a significant risk that could potentially have a large material effect on our financial condition. Further, we process hypothetical scenarios whereby we shock our balance sheet up and down for possible interest rate changes, we analyze the potential change (positive or negative) to net interest income, as well as the effect of changes in fair market values of assets and liabilities. We do not deal in international instruments, and therefore are not exposed to risks inherent to foreign currency. Additionally, as of June 30, 2015, we had no trading assets that exposed us to the risks in market changes.

Oversight of our interest rate risk management is the responsibility of the Asset/Liability Committee ("ALCO"). ALCO has established policies and limits to monitor, measure and coordinate our sources, uses and pricing of funds. Interest rate risk represents the sensitivity of earnings to changes in interest rates. As interest rates change, the interest income and expense associated with our interest sensitive assets and liabilities also change, thereby impacting net interest income, the primary component of our earnings. ALCO utilizes the results of both static gap and income simulation reports to quantify the estimated exposure of net interest income to a sustained change in interest rates.

Our income simulation analysis projected net interest income based on a decline in interest rates of 100 basis points (i.e. 1.00%) and an increase of 100 basis points, 200 basis points and 300 basis points (1.00%, 2.00% and 3.00%, respectively) over a twelve-month period. Given this scenario, as of June 30, 2015, we had an exposure to falling rates and a benefit from rising rates. More specifically, our model forecasts a decline in net interest income of $2.2 million, or 6.7%, as a result of a 100 basis point decline in rates based on annualizing our financial results through June 30, 2015. The model predicts a $2.0 million, or 6.1%, increase in net interest income resulting from a 100 basis point increase in rates. The model also forecasts an $4.2 million increase in net interest income, or 12.5%, as a result of a 200 basis point increase in rates. Finally, the model forecasts an $6.3 million increase in net interest income, or 18.9%, as a result of a 300 basis point increase in rates.

The following chart reflects our sensitivity to changes in interest rates as indicated as of June 30, 2015. The numbers are based on a static balance sheet, and the chart assumes that pay downs and maturities of both assets and liabilities are reinvested in like instruments at current interest rates.

INTEREST RATE RISK

INCOME SENSITIVITY SUMMARY

	Down 100 BP			Current			Up 100 BP			Up 200 BP			Up 300 BP

 __________________

^1.  Annualized net interest income is a twelve month projection based on year-to-date results.

The preceding sensitivity analysis is a modeling analysis, which changes periodically and consists of hypothetical estimates based upon numerous assumptions including interest rate levels, shape of the yield curve, prepayments on loans and securities, rates on loans and deposits, reinvestments of paydowns and maturities of loans, investments and deposits, and other assumptions. In addition, there is no input for growth or a change in asset mix. While assumptions are developed based on the current economic and market conditions, we cannot make any assurances as to the predictive nature of these assumptions, including how customer preferences or competitor influences might change.

As market conditions vary from those assumed in the sensitivity analysis, actual results will differ. Also, the sensitivity analysis does not reflect actions that we might take in responding to or anticipating changes in interest rates.

We use the Fiserv Asset Liability Manager, which is a comprehensive interest rate risk measurement tool that is widely used in the banking industry. Generally, it provides the user with the ability to more accurately model both static and dynamic gap, economic value of equity, duration and income simulations using a wide range of scenarios including interest rate shocks and rate ramps. The system also models derivative instruments.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have evaluated the effectiveness of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (“Disclosure Controls”). Disclosure Controls, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), are procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this Annual Report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure Controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management, including the CEO and CFO, does not expect that our Disclosure Controls will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Our CEO and CFO have concluded that our Disclosure Controls were effective at a reasonable assurance level as of June 30, 2015.

Changes in Internal Controls

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In the normal course of business, we are at times subject to pending and threatened legal actions and proceedings, including actions brought on behalf of various classes of claimants. In view of the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of such litigation, particularly where the claimants seek large or indeterminate damages or where the matters involve a large number of parties, the Company generally cannot predict what the eventual outcome of the pending matters will be, what the timing of the ultimate resolution of these matters will be, or what the eventual loss, fines or penalties related to each pending matter may be.

In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, the Company establishes an accrued liability for litigation, when those matters present loss contingencies that are both probable and estimable. In such cases, there may be an exposure to loss in excess of any amounts accrued. As litigation develops, the Company, in conjunction with any outside counsel handling the matter, evaluates on an ongoing basis whether such matter presents a loss contingency that is probable and estimable. When a loss contingency is not both probable and estimable, the Company does not establish an accrued liability.

Information is provided below regarding the nature of pending and threatened legal actions. After reviewing the pending and threatened legal actions with counsel, we believe that the outcome of any or all such actions will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and/or operating results.

Atlantic Capital Merger:

Two putative shareholder class action lawsuits have been filed in connection with the merger. Knutson v. First Security Group, Inc. et al., filed April 15, 2015 in the Chancery Court for Hamilton County, Tennessee, names First Security, the members of its board of directors, and Atlantic Capital as defendants. Meade v. Kramer, et al., filed April 24, 2015 in the Chancery Court for Hamilton County, Tennessee, names First Security, the members of its board of directors, FSGBank, N.A., Atlantic Capital and Atlantic Capital Bank as defendants. Each of these complaints alleges, among other things, that the First Security directors breached their fiduciary duties in connection with the negotiation and approval of the merger agreement and that the other named defendants aided and abetted those alleged breaches of fiduciary duties. Among other relief, the plaintiffs seek injunctive relief preventing parties from consummating the merger, rescission of the transactions completed by the merger agreement, an award of attorney’s fees and expenses for plaintiffs and other forms of relief. On June 1, 2015, the Chancery Court entered an order consolidating these two suits under the caption In re First Security Group, Inc. Stockholder Litigation, Case No. 15-0212. On June 25, 2015, the plaintiffs filed an amended and consolidated class action complaint in the Chancery Court for Hamilton County, Chattanooga. The amended complaint repeats many of the same allegations of the original complaints but also makes additional allegations with respect to disclosures contained in the joint proxy statement/prospectus. First Security believes that these lawsuits are without merit and intends to vigorously defend against them. First Security has not accrued a liability for these claims. On July 24, 2015, the defendants filed motions to dismiss the amended complaint.  A hearing on the motions to dismiss has been scheduled for August 31, 2015.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 as well as the added risk factors discussed below. The risks described below and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.

Termination of the Merger Agreement could adversely affect the Company.

If the Merger Agreement is terminated, and the Merger is not consummated, there may be various consequences. For example, the Company’s business may have been impacted adversely by the failure to pursue other beneficial opportunities due to the focus of management on the Merger, without realizing any of the anticipated benefits of completing the Merger. The Company has incurred substantial costs in connection with the Merger, including legal, accounting and investment banking fees. Additionally, if the Merger Agreement is terminated, the market price of the Company’s common stock could decline to the extent that the current market price reflects a market assumption that the Merger will be completed. Under certain circumstances, the Company will be required to pay Atlantic Capital a termination fee of $6.25 million and reimburse expenses of up to $1 million. This may make it more difficult or expensive for another company to acquire the Company if the Merger Agreement is terminated, which may have an adverse impact on the price of the Company’s common stock.

85

The Company will be subject to business uncertainties and contractual restrictions on its operations while the Merger is pending.

The Company will be subject to business uncertainties and contractual restrictions on its operations while the Merger is pending. For instance, uncertainty about the effect of the Merger on employees and customers may have an adverse effect on the Company. These uncertainties may impair the Company’s ability to attract, retain and motivate key personnel until the Merger is completed, and could cause customers and others that deal with the Company to seek to change their existing business relationships. Retention of certain employees by the Company may be challenging while the Merger is pending, as certain employees may experience uncertainty about their future roles. If key employees, or a significant number of employees, depart because of issues relating to the uncertainty and difficulty of integration or a desire not to remain with the Company or the surviving entity, the Company’s business could be harmed. In addition, subject to certain exceptions, the Company has agreed to operate its business in the ordinary course, and to comply with certain other operational restrictions, prior to consummation of the Merger.

Banking and Thrift [Abstract]

Regulatory Capital

REGULATORY CAPITAL

Regulatory Capital Ratios

Banks and bank holding companies, as regulated institutions, are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the OCC and Federal Reserve, the primary federal regulators for FSGBank and the Company, respectively. The OCC and Federal Reserve have adopted minimum capital regulations or guidelines that categorize components and the level of risk associated with various types of assets. Financial institutions are expected to maintain a level of capital commensurate with the risk profile assigned to their assets in accordance with the guidelines. Regulatory capital guidelines require that capital be measured in relation to the credit and market risks of both on- and off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. On January 1, 2015, the Company became subject to Basel III rules, which include transition provisions through January 1, 2019. Under Basel III, total capital consist of two tiers of capital, Tier 1 and Tier 2. Tier 1 capital is further composed of Common Equity Tier 1 Capital and additional Tier 1 capital.

The transition provisions include important differences in determining the composition of regulatory capital between the Basel I Rules and Basel III rules including, changes in capital deductions related to the Company's deferred tax assets and defined benefit pension assets, and the inclusion of unrealized gains and losses on AFS debt and certain marketable equity securities recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI"). These changes are impacted by, among other things, future changes in interest rates, overall earnings performance and company actions. Changes to the composition of regulatory capital under Basel III, as compared to the Basel I rules, are recognized in 20 percent annual increments, and will be fully recognized as of January 1, 2019. When presented on a fully phased-in basis, capital, risk-weighted assets and the capital ratios assume all regulatory capital adjustments and deductions are fully recognized.

Common Equity Tier 1 Capital primarily includes qualifying common shareholders' equity, retained earnings, accumulated other comprehensive income and certain minority interests. Goodwill, disallowed intangible assets and certain disallowed deferred tax assets are excluded from Common Equity Tier 1 Capital.

Additional Tier 1 capital primarily includes qualifying non-cumulative preferred stock, trust preferred securities subject to phase-out and certain minority interests. Certain deferred tax assets are also excluded.

Tier 2 capital primarily consists of qualifying subordinated debt, a limited portion of the allowance for loan and lease losses, trust preferred securities subject to phase-out and reserves for unfunded lending commitments. The Company's total capital is the sum of Tier 1 capital plus Tier 2 capital.

To meet adequately capitalized regulatory requirements, an institution must maintain a Common Equity Tier 1 Capital of 4.5%, a Tier 1 capital ratio of 6.0% and a Total capital ratio of 8.0%. A “well-capitalized” institution must generally maintain capital ratios 200 bps higher than the minimum guidelines. The risk-based capital rules have been further supplemented by a Tier 1 leverage ratio, defined as Tier 1 capital divided by quarterly average total assets, after certain adjustments. The Bank must maintain a Tier 1 leverage ratio of at least 5.0% to be classified as “well capitalized.” Failure to meet the capital requirements established by the joint agencies can lead to certain mandatory and discretionary actions by regulators that could have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

The Basel III rules also introduced a capital conservation buffer which will be phased in over four years beginning on January 1, 2016, with a maximum buffer of 0.625% of risk-weighted assets for 2016, 1.25% for 2017, 1.875% for 2018, and 2.5% for 2019 and thereafter. Failure to maintain the required capital conservation buffer will result in limitations on capital distributions and on discretionary bonuses to executive officers.

The Basel III rules were implemented in the first quarter of 2015. The Company opted out of the AOCI treatment under the new requirements and, as such, unrealized security gains and losses will continue to be excluded from bank regulatory capital.

The following table presents capital ratios for the Company and FSGBank at June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014:

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of financial condition and the results of operations have been included. All such adjustments were of a normal recurring nature. Some items in the prior year financial statements were reclassified to conform to the current presentation. Reclassifications had no effect on prior year net loss or shareholders’ equity.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of First Security Group, Inc. ("First Security" , "FSG" or the "Company") and FSGBank, N.A. ("FSGBank" or the "Bank"), its wholly owned subsidiary bank. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Operating results for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2015 or any other period. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s latest annual consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Recent Developments

On June 8, 2015, First Security and Atlantic Capital Bancshares, Inc. (“Atlantic Capital”) entered into an Amendment (the “Merger Agreement Amendment”) to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated March 25, 2015, by and between First Security and Atlantic Capital (the “Merger Agreement”) providing for the merger of First Security with and into Atlantic Capital (the “Merger”).

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, Atlantic Capital will purchase First Security for total consideration of approximately $160 million. FSG shareholders may elect cash equal to $2.35 per share, stock based on a fixed exchange ratio of 0.188 shares of Atlantic Capital common stock for each FSG share or any combination thereof. Atlantic Capital intends to register its shares with the SEC and seek a listing on NASDAQ concurrent with the closing of the transaction. The Merger Agreement, as originally executed, provided for approximately 40% of the shares of First Security common stock outstanding at the effective time of the Merger to be exchanged for cash merger consideration, with the remaining 60% to be exchanged for shares of Atlantic Capital common stock. Elections as to the form of merger consideration to be received by First Security shareholders were subject to allocation to meet the 40% cash election threshold.

The Merger Agreement Amendment alters the mix of consideration to be received by First Security shareholders in the Merger. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, as amended by the Merger Agreement Amendment, between 30-35% of the shares of First Security common stock outstanding at the effective time of the Merger will be exchanged for cash, with the remaining 65-70% to be exchanged for shares of Atlantic Capital common stock. First Security shareholders may elect the form of merger consideration to be received, but such elections are subject to allocation in the event that less than 30% or more than 35% of the outstanding shares of First Security common stock are subject to a cash election.

Other than as expressly modified pursuant to the Merger Agreement Amendment, the Merger Agreement, which was previously filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by First Security with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 27, 2015, remains in full force and effect as originally executed on March 25, 2015. On June 10, 2015, First Security filed a Current Report on Form 8-K that provides additional details relating to the Merger Agreement Amendment. A copy of the Merger Agreement Amendment is is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to such Form 8-K. The transaction has been unanimously approved by the board of directors of each company. The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2015 and is subject to Atlantic Capital and First Security shareholder approval, regulatory approval and other conditions set forth in the merger agreement.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of financial condition and the results of operations have been included. All such adjustments were of a normal recurring nature. Some items in the prior year financial statements were reclassified to conform to the current presentation. Reclassifications had no effect on prior year net loss or shareholders’ equity.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of First Security Group, Inc. ("First Security" , "FSG" or the "Company") and FSGBank, N.A. ("FSGBank" or the "Bank"), its wholly owned subsidiary bank. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Operating results for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2015 or any other period. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s latest annual consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company used the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate fair value:

Cash and cash equivalents: The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value.

Interest bearing deposits in banks: The carrying amounts of interest bearing deposits in banks approximate fair value.

Federal Home Loan Bank Stock and Federal Reserve Bank Stock: It is not practical to determine the fair value of FHLB Stock or FRB Stock due to restrictions placed on their transferability. As such, these instruments are carried at cost.

Securities: The fair values for investment securities are determined by quoted market prices, if available (Level 1). For securities where quoted prices are not available, fair values are calculated based on market prices of similar securities (Level 2). For securities where quoted prices or market prices of similar securities are not available, fair values are calculated using discounted cash flows or other market indicators (Level 3). Discounted cash flows are calculated using spread to swap and LIBOR curves that are updated to incorporate loss severities, volatility, credit spread and optionality. During times when trading is more liquid, broker quotes are used (if available) to validate the model. Rating agency and industry research reports as well as defaults and deferrals on individual securities are reviewed and incorporated into the calculations. Our municipal securities valuations are supported by analysis prepared by an independent third party. Their approach to determining fair value involves using recently executed transactions for similar securities and market quotations for similar securities. As these securities are not rated by the rating agencies and trading volumes are thin, it was determined that these were valued using Level 2 inputs.

Derivatives: The fair values of derivatives are based on valuation models using observable market data as of the measurement date (Level 2).

Loans: For variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and have no significant changes in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values. Fair values for certain mortgage loans and other consumer loans are estimated using the quoted market prices for securities backed by similar loans, adjusted for differences in loan characteristics. The fair value of other types of loans and leases is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers of similar credit ratings quality. Fair value for impaired loans and leases are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis or underlying collateral values, where applicable. The fair value may not approximate the exit price.

Impaired Loans: At the time a loan is considered impaired, it is valued at the lower of cost or fair value. Impaired loans carried at fair value generally receive specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses. For collateral dependent loans, fair value is commonly based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Non-real estate collateral may be valued using an appraisal, net book value per the borrower's financial statements, or aging reports, adjusted or discounted based on management's historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of the valuation, and management's expertise and knowledge of the client and client's business, resulting in a Level 3 fair value classification. Impaired loans are evaluated on a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly.

Other Real Estate Owned: Assets acquired through or instead of loan foreclosure are initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell when acquired, establishing a new cost basis. These assets are subsequently accounted for at lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell. Fair value is commonly based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.

Appraisals for both collateral-dependent impaired loans and other real estate owned are performed annually by certified general appraisers (for commercial properties) or certified residential appraisers (for residential properties) whose qualifications and licenses have been reviewed and verified by the Company. Once received, a member of the Special Assets Department reviews the assumptions and approaches utilized in the appraisal as well as the overall resulting fair value in comparison with independent data sources such as recent market data or industry-wide statistics. On an annual basis, the Company compares the actual selling price of collateral that has been sold to the most recent appraised value to determine what additional adjustment should be made to the appraisal value to arrive at fair value. The most recent analysis performed indicated that a discount of approximately 17% should be applied.

Loans Held For Sale: Fair value for loans originated to be held for sale is determined using quoted prices for similar assets, adjusted for specific attributes of that loan or other observable market data, such as outstanding commitments from third party investors (Level 2). Fair value of loans transferred to held for sale is determined using the carrying amount of the loans before they were transferred to loans held for sale net of any allowance for loan and lease loss, resulting in a Level 3 fair value classification.

Accrued interest receivable: The carrying value of accrued interest receivable approximates fair value.

Deposit liabilities: The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts, and certain money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value for fixed-rate certificates of deposit is estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregate expected maturities on time deposits.

Federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase: These borrowings generally mature in 90 days or less and, accordingly, the carrying amount reported in the consolidated balance sheets approximates fair value.

Accrued interest payable: The carrying value of accrued interest payable approximates fair value.

Other borrowings: Other borrowings carrying amount reported in the consolidated balance sheets approximates fair value.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Accounting Standards Update 2014-04, Receivables - Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors - Reclassification of Residual Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans Upon Foreclosure. In January 2014, the FASB amended this existing guidance to clarify when a creditor should be considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan such that the loan should be derecognized and the real estate recognized. These amendments clarify that an in substance repossession or foreclosure occurs, and a creditor is considered to have received physical repossession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan, upon either: 1) the creditor obtaining legal title to the residential real estate property upon completion of a foreclosure, or 2) the borrower conveying all interest in the residential real estate property to the creditor to satisfy that loan through completion of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or through similar legal agreement. These amendments are effective for public business entities for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company's operating results or financial condition.

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers." This update is a joint project with the International Accounting Standards Board initiated to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue and to develop a common revenue standard that is meant to remove inconsistencies and weaknesses in revenue requirements, provide a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues, improve comparability of revenue recognition practices, provide more useful information to users of financial statements and simplify the preparation of financial statements. The guidance in this update supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, "Revenue Recognition" and most industry-specific guidance throughout the Industry Topics of Codification. This update is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is evaluating the impact of this update and does not believe it will have a significant impact to the Company's operating results or financial condition.

Share-Based Compensation

SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

As of June 30, 2015, the Company has three share-based compensation plans, the 2012 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "2012 LTIP"), the 2002 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "2002 LTIP") and the 1999 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "1999 LTIP" and, together with the 2012 LTIP and 2002 LTIP, the "Plans"). The Plans are administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Committee"), which selects persons eligible to receive awards and determines the number of shares and/or options subject to each award, the terms, conditions and other provisions of the award. The Plans are described in further detail below.

During the Company's participation in TARP CPP, the terms of awards were also subject to compliance with applicable TARP compensation regulations prior to the exchange of the TARP Preferred Stock on April 11, 2013.

The 2012 LTIP was approved by the shareholders of the Company at the Company's 2012 annual meeting as previously reported on a Current Report on Form 8-K filed June 26, 2012 and subsequently amended at the Company's 2013 annual meeting as reported on a Current Report on Form 8-K filed on July 26, 2013. The amendment increased the shares reserved for issuance from 175,000 shares to 6,250,000 shares and was effective on July 24, 2013. The 2012 Long-Term Incentive Plan permits the Committee to make a variety of awards, including incentive and nonqualified options to purchase shares of First Security's common stock, stock appreciation rights, other share-based awards which are settled in either cash or shares of First Security's common stock and are determined by reference to shares of stock, such as grants of restricted common stock, grants of rights to receive stock in the future, or dividend equivalent rights, and cash performance awards, which are settled in cash and are not determined by reference to shares of First Security's common stock ("Awards"). These discretionary Awards may be made on an individual basis or through a program approved by the Committee for the benefit of a group of eligible persons. As of June 30, 2015, the number of shares available under the 2012 LTIP for future grants was 2,686,550.

The 2002 LTIP was approved by the shareholders of the Company at the Company's 2002 annual meeting and subsequently amended by the shareholders of the Company at the Company's 2004 and 2007 annual meetings to increase the number of shares available for issuance under the 2002 LTIP by 480 thousand and 750 thousand shares, respectively. The total number of shares authorized for awards prior to the 10-for-1 reverse stock split was 1.5 million. As a result of the 10-for-1 reverse stock split in 2012, the total shares currently authorized under the 2002 LTIP is 151,800, of which not more than 20% may be granted as awards of restricted stock. Eligible participants include eligible employees, officers, consultants and directors of the Company or any affiliate. The exercise price per share of a stock option granted may not be less than the fair market value as of the grant date. The exercise price must be at least 110% of the fair market value at the grant date for options granted to individuals, who at the grant date, are 10% owners of the Company’s voting stock (each a 10% owner). Restricted stock may be awarded to participants with terms and conditions determined by the Committee. The term of each award is determined by the Committee, provided that the term of any incentive stock option may not exceed ten years (five years for 10% owners) from its grant date. Each option award vests in approximately equal percentages each year over a period of not less than three years from the date of grant as determined by the Committee subject to accelerated vesting under terms of the 2002 LTIP or as provided in any award agreement. As of June 30, 2015, there are no shares available for future grants under the 2002 LTIP.

Participation in the 1999 LTIP is limited to eligible employees. The total number of shares of stock authorized for awards prior to the 10-for-1 reverse stock split was 936 thousand. As a result of the 10-for-1 reverse stock split in 2013, the total shares currently authorized under the 1999 LTIP is 93,600, of which not more than 10% could be granted as awards of restricted stock. Under the terms of the 1999 LTIP, incentive stock options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock may not be granted at a price less than the fair market value of the stock as of the date of the grant. Options must be exercised within ten years from the date of grant subject to conditions specified by the 1999 LTIP. Restricted stock could also be awarded by the Committee in accordance with the 1999 LTIP. Generally, each award vests in approximately equal percentages each year over a period of not less than three years and vest from the date of grant as determined by the Committee subject to accelerated vesting under terms of the 1999 LTIP or as provided in any award agreement. As of June 30, 2015, there are no shares available for future grants under the 1999 LTIP.

Stock Options

The following table illustrates the effect on operating results for share-based compensation for the six months endedJune 30, 2015 and 2014.

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 30,				June 30,
	2015		2014		2015		2014
	(in thousands)
Stock option compensation expense	$	150	$	154	$	306	$	312
Stock option compensation expense, net of tax 1	$	99	$	102	$	202	$	206

¹ Due to the deferred tax valuation allowance, tax benefit is reversed through the valuation allowance.

During the six months endedJune 30, 2015 and 2014, no options were exercised.

The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using a closed form option valuation (Black-Scholes) model that uses the following assumptions: expected dividend yield, expected volatility, risk-free interest rate, expected life of the option and the grant date fair value. Expected volatilities were based on historical volatilities of the Company's common stock. During 2015 and 2014, the Company utilized a regional bank index and the Company's common stock to determine expected volatilities. The Company uses historical data to estimate option exercise and post-vesting termination behavior. The expected term of options granted is based on historical data and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding, which takes into account that the options are not transferable. The risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant.

There were 5 thousand options granted during the six months endedJune 30, 2015. Options granted during the six months endedJune 30, 2014 totaled 161 thousand. The fair value of options granted during the six months endedJune 30, 2015 was determined using the following weighted-average assumptions as of the grant date.

On February 27, 2014, as reported on a Current Report on Form 8-K filed on March 4, 2014, certain awards previously granted under the 2012 LTIP were modified effective February 28, 2014. The modification changed the vesting period from three years to five years. In addition, 96,250 supplemental stock options were authorized and will vest over a five year period in accordance with the modification. The supplemental stock options are exercisable at $2.33 per share and are otherwise identical to the original stock options and are subject to other terms and conditions of the 2012 LTIP and to the specific stock option awards.

As of June 30, 2015, there was $1.6 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested stock options granted under the Plans. The cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.9 years.

Restricted Stock

The Plans described above allow for the issuance of restricted stock awards that may not be sold or otherwise transferred until certain restrictions have lapsed. The unearned share-based compensation related to these awards is being amortized to compensation expense over the period the restrictions lapse. The share-based expense for these awards was determined based on the market price of the Company’s stock at the grant date applied to the total number of shares that were anticipated to fully vest and then amortized over the vesting period.

As of June 30, 2015, unearned share-based compensation associated with these awards totaled $1.4 million. The Company recognized compensation expense, net of forfeitures, of $152 thousand and $290 thousand for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 and $201 thousand and $349 thousand for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2014, respectively, related to the amortization of deferred compensation that was included in salaries and benefits in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The remaining cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.0 years.

The following table represents restricted stock activity for the period ended June 30, 2015:

During 2013, approximately $143 million of available-for-sale securities were transferred to the held-to-maturity portfolio. As of the transfer date, the securities held an unrealized loss of approximately $8.9 million. The fair value as of the transfer date became the new amortized cost basis with the unrealized loss, along with any remaining purchase discount or premium, being reclassified into accumulated other comprehensive income to be amortized over the life of the security. No gain or loss was recognized at the time of the transfer. For the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015, approximately $627 thousand and $1.0 million, respectively, of the unrealized loss was reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income and approximately $453 thousand and $935 thousand was reclassified for the same periods in 2014.

During the six months endedJune 30, 2015, the Company sold one corporate bond resulting in proceeds of approximately $2.0 million and a gross gain of $8 thousand.

During the three months endedJune 30, 2014, the Company sold thirty-seven tax exempt municipal securities resulting in proceeds of approximately $13.1 million and gross gains of $280 thousand and gross losses of $33 thousand.

As of June 30, 2015, the Company performed an impairment assessment of the available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities in its portfolio that had unrealized losses to determine whether the decline in the fair value of these securities below their cost was other-than-temporary. Under authoritative accounting guidance, impairment is considered other-than-temporary if any of the following conditions exists: (1) the Company intends to sell the security, (2) it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized costs basis or (3) the Company does not expect to recover the security’s entire amortized cost basis, even if the Company does not intend to sell. Additionally, accounting guidance requires that for impaired available-for-sale securities that the Company does not intend to sell and/or that it is not more-likely-than-not that the Company will have to sell prior to recovery but for which credit losses exist, the other-than-temporary impairment should be separated between the total impairment related to credit losses, which should be recognized in current earnings, and the amount of impairment related to all other factors, which should be recognized in other comprehensive income. Losses related to held-to-maturity securities are not recorded, as these securities are carried at their amortized cost. If a decline is determined to be other-than-temporary due to credit losses, the cost basis of the individual available-for-sale or held-to-maturity security is written down to fair value, which then becomes the new cost basis. The new cost basis would not be adjusted in future periods for subsequent recoveries in fair value, if any.

In evaluating the recovery of the entire amortized cost basis, the Company considers factors such as (1) the length of time and the extent to which the market value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, including events specific to the issuer or industry, (3) defaults or deferrals of scheduled interest, principal or dividend payments and (4) external credit ratings and recent downgrades.

As of June 30, 2015, gross unrealized losses in the Company’s available-for-sale portfolio totaled $546 thousand, compared to $367 thousand as of December 31, 2014 and $854 thousand as of June 30, 2014. As of June 30, 2015, gross unrecognized losses in the Company's held-to-maturity portfolio totaled $744 thousand compared to $305 thousand as of December 31, 2014 and $477 thousand as of June 30, 2014. As of June 30, 2015, the available-for-sale securities unrealized losses in mortgage-backed securities (consisting of nineteen securities), municipals (consisting of three security) and the held-to-maturity unrecognized losses in mortgage-backed securities (consisting of nine securities), municipals (consisting of four securities) and federal agencies (consisting of eight securities) are primarily due to widening credit spreads and changes in interest rates subsequent to purchase. Between June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2015, the rate on the 10-year U.S. Treasury decreased from approximately 2.53% to 2.35%. As this represented a decrease in interest rates, the market valuation of the Company's securities adjusted accordingly. The unrealized loss in other available-for-sale securities relates to two corporate notes. The unrealized loss in the corporate notes is primarily due to changes in interest rates subsequent to purchase. The Company does not intend to sell the available-for-sale investments with unrealized losses and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the available-for-sale investments before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be maturity. Based on results of the Company’s impairment assessment, the unrealized losses related to the available-for-sale securities and the unrecognized losses related to the held-to-maturity securities at June 30, 2015 are considered temporary.

On December 10, 2013, the Federal Reserve and other regulators jointly issued a proposed rule implementing requirements of a new Section 13 to the Bank Holding Company Act, commonly referred to as the “Volcker Rule.” We continue to monitor and review applicable regulatory guidance on the implementation of the Volcker Rule. The Federal Reserve Board granted an extension for conformance until July 21, 2017 and announced that it intends to exercise its authority to give banking entities two additional one-year extensions to conform their ownership interests in and sponsorship of certain collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”) covered by the Volcker Rule.

As of June 30, 2015, the Company has identified approximately $16.0 million of collateralized loan obligations ("CLOs") within its investment security portfolio that may be impacted by the Volcker Rule. If these securities are deemed to be prohibited bank investments, the Company would have to sell the securities prior to the compliance date of July 21, 2017. At this time, the Company continues to evaluate the additional regulatory guidance on the subject as well as the specific terms of the CLOs in the Company's portfolio to determine whether such CLOs will remain permitted investments. The unrealized gain as of June 30, 2015 for the Company's CLOs totaled $14 thousand.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings Per Common Share

EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE

The difference in basic and diluted weighted average shares is due to the assumed conversion of outstanding stock options and restricted stock awards using the treasury stock method. The Company has issued certain restricted stock awards, which are unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents. These restricted shares are considered participating securities. Accordingly, the Company calculated net income available to common shareholders pursuant to the two-class method, whereby net income is allocated between common shareholders and participating securities. In periods of a net loss, no allocation is made to participating securities as they are not contractually required to fund net losses. The computation of basic and diluted earnings per share is as follows:

As of June 30, 2015, all stock options and restricted stock grants of 3.4 million were considered anti-dilutive as the Company was in a net loss position. As of June 30, 2014, 3.3 million stock options and restricted stock grants were considered anti-dilutive. For the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015, there were no equivalent shares included in the computation of diluted earnings per share and for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2014, there were six thousand and four thousand shares, respectively, included in the computation of diluted earnings per share.

Fair Value Measurements

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The authoritative accounting guidance for fair value measurements defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. A fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. Authoritative guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs.

There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair values:

Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity can access as of the measurement date.

Level 2 - Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a company's own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

The following tables present information about the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2015, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized by the Company to determine such fair value. In general, fair values determined by Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs utilize inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the hierarchy. In such cases, the fair value is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

The Company used the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate fair value:

Cash and cash equivalents: The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value.

Interest bearing deposits in banks: The carrying amounts of interest bearing deposits in banks approximate fair value.

Federal Home Loan Bank Stock and Federal Reserve Bank Stock: It is not practical to determine the fair value of FHLB Stock or FRB Stock due to restrictions placed on their transferability. As such, these instruments are carried at cost.

Securities: The fair values for investment securities are determined by quoted market prices, if available (Level 1). For securities where quoted prices are not available, fair values are calculated based on market prices of similar securities (Level 2). For securities where quoted prices or market prices of similar securities are not available, fair values are calculated using discounted cash flows or other market indicators (Level 3). Discounted cash flows are calculated using spread to swap and LIBOR curves that are updated to incorporate loss severities, volatility, credit spread and optionality. During times when trading is more liquid, broker quotes are used (if available) to validate the model. Rating agency and industry research reports as well as defaults and deferrals on individual securities are reviewed and incorporated into the calculations. Our municipal securities valuations are supported by analysis prepared by an independent third party. Their approach to determining fair value involves using recently executed transactions for similar securities and market quotations for similar securities. As these securities are not rated by the rating agencies and trading volumes are thin, it was determined that these were valued using Level 2 inputs.

Derivatives: The fair values of derivatives are based on valuation models using observable market data as of the measurement date (Level 2).

Loans: For variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and have no significant changes in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values. Fair values for certain mortgage loans and other consumer loans are estimated using the quoted market prices for securities backed by similar loans, adjusted for differences in loan characteristics. The fair value of other types of loans and leases is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers of similar credit ratings quality. Fair value for impaired loans and leases are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis or underlying collateral values, where applicable. The fair value may not approximate the exit price.

Impaired Loans: At the time a loan is considered impaired, it is valued at the lower of cost or fair value. Impaired loans carried at fair value generally receive specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses. For collateral dependent loans, fair value is commonly based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Non-real estate collateral may be valued using an appraisal, net book value per the borrower's financial statements, or aging reports, adjusted or discounted based on management's historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of the valuation, and management's expertise and knowledge of the client and client's business, resulting in a Level 3 fair value classification. Impaired loans are evaluated on a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly.

Other Real Estate Owned: Assets acquired through or instead of loan foreclosure are initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell when acquired, establishing a new cost basis. These assets are subsequently accounted for at lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell. Fair value is commonly based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.

Appraisals for both collateral-dependent impaired loans and other real estate owned are performed annually by certified general appraisers (for commercial properties) or certified residential appraisers (for residential properties) whose qualifications and licenses have been reviewed and verified by the Company. Once received, a member of the Special Assets Department reviews the assumptions and approaches utilized in the appraisal as well as the overall resulting fair value in comparison with independent data sources such as recent market data or industry-wide statistics. On an annual basis, the Company compares the actual selling price of collateral that has been sold to the most recent appraised value to determine what additional adjustment should be made to the appraisal value to arrive at fair value. The most recent analysis performed indicated that a discount of approximately 17% should be applied.

Loans Held For Sale: Fair value for loans originated to be held for sale is determined using quoted prices for similar assets, adjusted for specific attributes of that loan or other observable market data, such as outstanding commitments from third party investors (Level 2). Fair value of loans transferred to held for sale is determined using the carrying amount of the loans before they were transferred to loans held for sale net of any allowance for loan and lease loss, resulting in a Level 3 fair value classification.

Accrued interest receivable: The carrying value of accrued interest receivable approximates fair value.

Deposit liabilities: The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts, and certain money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value for fixed-rate certificates of deposit is estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregate expected maturities on time deposits.

Federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase: These borrowings generally mature in 90 days or less and, accordingly, the carrying amount reported in the consolidated balance sheets approximates fair value.

Accrued interest payable: The carrying value of accrued interest payable approximates fair value.

Other borrowings: Other borrowings carrying amount reported in the consolidated balance sheets approximates fair value.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, including financial assets and liabilities for which the Company has elected the fair value option, are summarized below:

For the six month period ended June 30, 2015, the Company increased its valuation allowance to $3.0 million on other real estate owned. The Company recorded write-downs on other real estate owned of $20 thousand and $76 thousand during the three months endedJune 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and write-downs on other real estate owned of $163 thousand and $385 thousand for the six months endedJune 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. For collateral-dependent loans, no provision for loan loss was recored during the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015, and a five hundred thousand provision for loan loss was recorded during the three and six months endedJune 30, 2014. Any changes in the valuation allowance for a collateral-dependent loan are included in the allowance analysis and may result in additional provision expense.

There have been no transfers into or out of Level 3 during 2015 or 2014. There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during 2015 or 2014.

For loans transferred to held for sale the carrying amount was estimated by the carrying amount of the loans before they were transferred to loans held for sale, net of of any associated allowance for loan and lease loss.

For impaired loans and OREO properties, the Company utilizes independent, third-party appraisals to determine fair value. Independent appraisals are ordered at least annually. As part of the normal appraisal process, the appraisers generally provide the appraised value using one of following techniques: the sales comparison approach, the income approach or a combination thereof.  Under the sales comparison approach, the appraiser may make certain adjustments from the sold property to the appraised property, including, but not limited to, differences in square footage, lot size, absorption rates or location. As of June 30, 2015, the adjustments between the appraised property and the comparison property range from (72.4)% to 175.2% with a weighted average adjustment of (3.4)%. Under the income approach, the appraiser may make certain adjustments including, but not limited to, capitalization rates and differences in operating income expectations.  The Company's current third-party appraisals provided capitalization rates up to 10.0% with a weighted average of 9.1%. The Company's current third-party appraisals do not provide a range of adjustments to net operating income expectations. The Company monitors the realization rate between proceeds received and appraised value for all sold OREO properties.  This discount, defined as the weighted average percentage difference between appraised values and proceeds, is then applied to all remaining appraisals associated with impaired loans and OREO properties.  The Company monitors and applies this adjustment to the Company's Level 3 properties. The weighted average discount is approximately 17.0% as of June 30, 2015.

Other Borrowings

OTHER BORROWINGS

Other borrowings at June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014 consist of short-term variable or fixed rate advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati ("FHLB") totaling $65.1 million, $56.0 million and $38.1 million, respectively. There were no other borrowings at June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 or June 30, 2014.

Pursuant to the blanket agreement for advances and security agreements with the FHLB, advances as of June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014 were secured by the Company’s unencumbered qualifying 1-4 family first mortgage loans subject to varying limitations determined by the FHLB, investment securities and by the FHLB stock owned by the Company. As of June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014, the Company had loans totaling $67.9 million, $65.3 million and $157.4 million, respectively, and investment securities totaling $82.8 million, $96.0 million and $102.6 million, respectively, pledged as collateral at the FHLB.

As a member of FHLB, the Company must own FHLB stock. The amount of FHLB stock required to be held is subject the Company’s asset size and outstanding FHLB advances. At June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014, the Company owned FHLB stock totaling $3.3 million, $3.3 million and $3.3 million, respectively. The FHLB stock is recorded in other assets on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. Based on the collateral and the Company's holdings of FHLB stock, the Company is eligible to borrow up to a total of $152.7 million at June 30, 2015.

The terms of the FHLB advances as of June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014 are as follows:

Balance as of June 30, 2015

Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase (“Repurchase Agreements”)

The Company enters into agreements under which it sells securities subject to an obligation to repurchase the same or similar securities. Under these arrangements, the Company may transfer legal control over the assets but still retain effective control through an agreement that both entitles and obligates the Company to repurchase the assets. As a result, these repurchase agreements are accounted for as collateralized financing arrangements (i.e., secured borrowings) and not as a sale and subsequent repurchase of securities. The obligation to repurchase the securities is reflected as a liability in the Company's consolidated balance sheet, while the securities underlying the repurchase agreements remain in the respective investment securities asset accounts. As a result, there is no offsetting or netting of the investment securities assets with the repurchase agreement liabilities. In addition, as the Company does not enter into reverse repurchase agreements, there is no such offsetting to be done with the repurchase agreements.

The right of setoff for a repurchase agreement resembles a secured borrowing, whereby the collateral pledged by the Company would be used to settle the fair value of the repurchase agreement should the Company be in default (e.g., fail to make an interest payment to the counterparty). For private institution repurchase agreements, if the private institution counterparty were to default (e.g., declare bankruptcy), the Company could cancel the repurchase agreement (i.e., cease payment of principal and interest), and attempt collection on the amount of collateral value in excess of the repurchase agreement fair value. The collateral is held by a third party financial institution in the counterparty's custodial account. The counterparty has the right to sell or repledge the investment securities. The Company is required by the counterparty to maintain adequate collateral levels. In the event the collateral fair value falls below stipulated levels, the Company will pledge additional securities. The Company closely monitors collateral levels to ensure adequate levels are maintained, while mitigating the potential risk of over-collateralization in the event of counterparty default.

The following table presents the remaining contractual maturities of the Company’s repurchase agreements as of June 30, 2015, disaggregated by the class of collateral pledged.

Receivables [Abstract]

Loans Held-For-Sale

LOANS HELD-FOR-SALE

The Company maintains loans held-for-sale in connection with three distinct departments: the mortgage department, the government lending department and the TriNet division. The Company's mortgage department primarily originates long-term loans held-for-sale and uses various correspondent relationships to sell the loans on the secondary market. The mortgage department also originates certain mortgage loans to be retained and classifies as loans held-for-investment. From time to time, certain of these loans may be marketed and sold in order to manage the Company's interest rate risk position and concentration limits. The government lending department originates SBA and USDA government guaranteed loans with the primary purpose of selling the guaranteed portion in the secondary market. The Company's TriNet division originates construction loans for pre-leased "build to suit" projects and provides interim and long-term financing to professional developers and private investors of commercial real estate with or subject to long-term leases to tenants that are investment grade or have investment grade attributes. The Company classifies all TriNet originations as held-for-investment. From time to time, the Company may evaluate a portion of the originated loans to sell in order to manage the Company's overall interest rate risk and asset-liability sensitivity. The Company transfers the loans to held-for-sale once specific loans are identified and the decision to sell the loan has been made. This is generally represented by the Company's execution of a letter of intent.

Residential loans held-for-sale by the Company's mortgage department totaled $1.3 million, $2.3 million and $547 thousand at June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014, respectively.

The Company's government lending department had loans held-for-sale at June 30, 2015 of approximately $1.9 million. This amount represents the portion of the SBA loan the Company intends to sell to third parties. Sales of SBA loans have generated income of approximately $59 thousand and $73 thousand, respectively, for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 and $99 thousand and $121 thousand for the same periods in 2014.

During the first six months of 2015, the Company identified groups of commercial real estate loans to be sold to third parties from the TriNet division. These loans were transferred from loans held-for-investment to loans held-for-sale at the lower of cost or market value of $43.4 million, which was net of an allowance of $63 thousand. The balance of TriNet loans held-for-sale at June 30, 2015 was $30.8 million, which was net of an allowance of $37 thousand. The sale of these loans is expected to take place in the third quarter of 2015. During the first quarter of 2014, the Company identified a group of commercial real estate loans to be sold to third parties from the TriNet division. These loans were transferred to loans held-for-sale at the lower of cost or market value at a value of $33.6 million, which was net of an allowance of approximately $100 thousand. During the third quarter of 2014, the Company identified additional commercial real estate loans from the TriNet division to sell. These loans were transferred to loans held-for-sale at the lower of cost or market value at a value of $45.6 million, which was net of an allowance of approximately $148 thousand. Sales of TriNet loans have resulted in gains of approximately $124 thousand and $1.2 million, respectively, for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015, and $351 thousand for the same periods in 2014.

During the first quarter of 2015, the Company also identified a group of residential 1-4 family loans to be sold to a third party. These loans were transferred from loans held-for-investment to loans held-for-sale at a market value of $2.1 million, which was net of an allowance of $20 thousand. The sale of these loans is expected to take place in the third quarter of 2015. During the second quarter of 2014, the Company identified a group of residential 1-4 family loans to be sold to a third party. These loans were transferred from the held-for-investment portfolio to the held-for-sale portfolio at approximately $6.9 million, which was the lower of cost or market value and were sold during the third quarter of 2014. There were no sales of residential 1-4 family loans during the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 and 2014.

The allowance for loan and lease losses is composed of two primary components: (1) specific impairments for substandard/nonaccrual loans and leases and (2) general allocations for classified loan pools, including special mention and substandard/accrual loans, as well as all remaining pools of loans. The Company accumulates pools based on the underlying classification of the collateral. Each pool is assigned a loss severity rate based on historical loss experience and various qualitative and environmental factors, including, but not limited to, credit quality and economic conditions. The Company may include an unallocated component to the allowance for inherent risks within the loan portfolio that cannot be quantified through the loss factors or the qualitative factors. The Company determines the allowance on a quarterly basis. Because of uncertainties inherent in the estimation process, management’s estimate of credit losses in the loan portfolio and the related allowance may materially change in the near term. However, the amount of the change that is reasonably possible cannot be estimated.

Included in the Company's loan portfolio are government guaranteed loans the Company purchased totaling $48.2 million, $51.3 million and $54.9 million at June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014, respectively. Due to the nature of these loans, there is no specific or general allocation calculated or included in the allowance for loan and lease losses for this group of loans. These loans are reported within the appropriate classification, primarily commercial loans or commercial real estate loans.

The following tables present an analysis of the activity in the allowance for loan and lease losses for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 and 2014. The provision for loan and lease losses in the tables below do not include the Company’s provision accrual for unfunded commitments of zero and $2 thousand for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015, respectively, and $6 thousand and $12 thousand for the same periods in 2014. The reserve for unfunded commitments is included in other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets and totaled $308 thousand, $306 thousand and $294 thousand at June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014, respectively.

The Company utilizes a risk rating system to evaluate the credit risk of its loan portfolio. The Company classifies loans as: pass, special mention, substandard/non-impaired, substandard/impaired, doubtful or loss. The following describes the Company's classifications and the various risk indicators associated with each rating.

A pass rating is assigned to those loans that are performing as contractually agreed and do not exhibit the characteristics of the criticized and classified risk ratings as defined below. The Company utilizes six grade classifications within the Pass rating based on the varying risk characteristics of the loan. Pass loan pools do not include the unfunded portions of binding commitments to lend, standby letters of credit, deposit secured loans or mortgage loans originated with commitments to sell in the secondary market. Loans that are not required to have an allowance reserve include: loans secured by segregated deposits held by FSGBank, loans held-for-sale, and the government guaranteed portion of SBA and USDA loans.

A special mention loan risk rating is considered criticized but is not considered as severe as a classified loan risk rating. Special mention loans contain one or more potential weakness(es), which if not corrected, could result in an unacceptable increase in credit risk at some future date. These loans may be characterized by the following risks and/or trends:

Loans to Businesses:

• Downward trend in sales, profit levels and margins

• Impaired working capital position compared to industry

• Cash flow strained in order to meet debt repayment schedule

• Technical defaults due to noncompliance with financial covenants

• Recurring trade payable slowness

• High leverage compared to industry average with shrinking equity cushion

• Questionable abilities of management

• Weak industry conditions

• Inadequate or outdated financial statements

Loans to Businesses or Individuals:

• Loan delinquencies and overdrafts may occur

• Original source of repayment questionable

• Documentation deficiencies may not be easily correctable

• Loan may need to be restructured

• Collateral or guarantor offers adequate protection

• Unsecured debt to tangible net worth is excessive

A substandard loan risk rating is characterized as having specifically identified weaknesses and deficiencies typically resulting from severe adverse trends of a financial, economic, or managerial nature, and may warrant non-accrual status.

The Company segregates substandard loans into two classifications based on the Company’s allowance methodology for impaired loans. The Company defines a substandard/impaired loan as a substandard loan relationship in excess of $250 thousand that is individually reviewed. Substandard loans have a greater likelihood of loss and may require a protracted work-out plan. In addition to the factors listed for special mention loans, substandard loans may be characterized by the following risks and/or trends:

Loans to Businesses:

• Sustained losses that have severely eroded equity and cash flows

• Concentration in illiquid assets

• Serious management problems or internal fraud

• Chronic trade payable slowness; may be placed on COD or collection by trade creditor

• Inability to access other funding sources

• Financial statements with adverse opinion or disclaimer; may be received late

• Insufficient documented cash flows to meet contractual debt service requirements

Loans to Businesses or Individuals:

• Chronic or severe delinquency or has met the retail classification standards which is generally past dues greater than 90 days

• Frequent overdrafts

• Likelihood of bankruptcy exists

• Serious documentation deficiencies

• Reliance on secondary sources of repayment which are presently considered adequate

• Demand letter sent

• Litigation may have been filed against the borrower

Loans with a risk rating of doubtful are individually analyzed to determine the Company's best estimate of the loss based on the most recent assessment of all available sources of repayment. Doubtful loans are considered impaired and placed on nonaccrual. For doubtful loans, the collection or liquidation in full of principal and/or interest is highly questionable or improbable. The Company estimates the specific potential loss based upon an individual analysis of the relationship risks, the borrower’s cash flow, the borrower’s management and any underlying secondary sources of repayment. The amount of the estimated loss, if any, is then either specifically reserved in a separate component of the allowance or charged-off. In addition to the characteristics listed for substandard loans, the following characteristics apply to doubtful loans:

Loans to Businesses:

• Normal operations are severely diminished or have ceased

• Seriously impaired cash flow

• Numerous exceptions to loan agreement

• Outside accountant questions entity’s survivability as a “going concern”

• Financial statements may be received late, if at all

• Material legal judgments filed

• Collection of principal and interest is impaired

• Collateral/Guarantor may offer inadequate protection

Loans to Businesses or Individuals:

• Original repayment terms materially altered

• Secondary source of repayment is inadequate

• Asset liquidation may be in process with all efforts directed at debt retirement

• Documentation deficiencies not correctable

The consistent application of the above loan risk rating methodology ensures that the Company has the ability to track historical losses and appropriately estimate potential future losses in our allowance. Additionally, appropriate loan risk ratings assist the Company in allocating credit and special asset personnel in the most effective manner. Significant changes in loan risk ratings can have a material impact on the allowance and thus a material impact on the Company's financial results by requiring significant increases or decreases in provision expense. The Company individually reviews these relationships on a quarterly basis to determine the required allowance or loss, as applicable.

During the first quarter of 2015, the Company changed the dollar threshold utilized to evaluate loan relationships for impairment. Prior to 2015, the dollar threshold utilized was $500 thousand. The Company determined it was appropriate given alignment with a change in internal procedures and controls related to credit quality monitoring and loan review scope. The reduction in the dollar threshold impacts the Company's estimated allowance for loan and lease loss. The change in our estimated allowance for loan and lease losses and provision expense, due to the change in accounting policy, was recorded in the period the change in the dollar threshold took place. The reduction in the dollar threshold increased impaired loans by approximately $729 thousand at June 30, 2015. The change in the dollar threshold also decreased the estimated allowance for loan and lease loss and associated provision expense by approximately $64 thousand for the six months endedJune 30, 2015.

As of June 30, 2015, the Company had eight loans, not on non-accrual, that were considered troubled debt restructurings. Four residential loans totaling $122 thousand were restructured with lower interest rates and payments, two commercial real estate loans totaling $777 thousand were restructured with short term extensions to allow collection of financial information and re-evaluate, and two consumer loans totaling $27 thousand were restructured with lower payments. As of June 30, 2015, these loans were performing under the modified terms.

The Company had $926 thousand, $177 thousand and $497 thousand in total troubled debt restructurings outstanding as of June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014, respectively. The Company has allocated no specific reserves to customers whose loan terms have been modified in troubled debt restructurings as of June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014. The Company has not committed to lend additional amounts as of June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014 to customers with outstanding loans that are classified as troubled debt restructurings.

The Company completed one modification totaling $734 thousand that would qualify as a troubled debt restructuring during the three months endedJune 30, 2015 and four modifications totaling $800 thousand that would qualify as troubled debt restructurings during the six months endedJune 30, 2015. The Company completed two modifications totaling $81 thousand for the year endedDecember 31, 2014 that would qualify as a troubled debt restructuring and completed one modification totaling $47 thousand that would qualify as a troubled debt restructuring for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2014.

The following table presents loans by class modified as troubled debt restructurings for which there was a payment default within twelve months following the modification during the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 and 2014 and the year endedDecember 31, 2014:

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]

Income Taxes

INCOME TAXES

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, which requires an asset and liability approach for the financial accounting and reporting of income taxes. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements. These balances are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply in the year(s) in which these temporary differences are expected to reverse. The effect on deferred income taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period when the change is enacted.

In accordance with ASC 740, the Company is required to establish a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets when it is “more likely than not” that a portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The evaluation requires significant judgment and extensive analysis of all available positive and negative evidence, the forecasts of future income, applicable tax planning strategies and assessments of the current and future economic and business conditions.

During 2010, the Company established a deferred tax asset valuation allowance after evaluating all available positive and negative evidence. A valuation allowance is required when it is "more likely than not" that the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The evaluation requires significant judgment and extensive analysis of all available positive and negative evidence, the forecasts of future income, applicable tax planning strategies and assessments of the current and future economic and business conditions. For the six months endedJune 30, 2015, the Company reported a net loss, which is negative evidence. Currently, the Company has determined that there is not sufficient positive evidence to reach a "more likely than not" conclusion that the deferred tax assets will be realized and as such, a full valuation allowance exists as of June 30, 2015. The Company evaluates the valuation allowance on a quarterly basis. As of June 30, 2015, the valuation allowance totals $61.7 million resulting in a net deferred tax asset of zero.

The Company recognized an income tax provision of $145 thousand and $290 thousand for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015, respectively, and $131 thousand and $263 thousand for the same periods in 2014.

The Company evaluated its material tax positions as of June 30, 2015. Under the “more-likely-than-not” threshold guidelines, the Company believes it has identified all significant uncertain tax benefits. The Company evaluates, on a quarterly basis or sooner if necessary, to determine if new or pre-existing uncertain tax positions are significant. In the event a significant uncertain tax position is determined to exist, penalty and interest will be accrued, in accordance with Internal Revenue Service guidelines, and recorded as a component of income tax expense in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Accounting Standards Update 2014-04, Receivables - Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors - Reclassification of Residual Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans Upon Foreclosure. In January 2014, the FASB amended this existing guidance to clarify when a creditor should be considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan such that the loan should be derecognized and the real estate recognized. These amendments clarify that an in substance repossession or foreclosure occurs, and a creditor is considered to have received physical repossession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan, upon either: 1) the creditor obtaining legal title to the residential real estate property upon completion of a foreclosure, or 2) the borrower conveying all interest in the residential real estate property to the creditor to satisfy that loan through completion of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or through similar legal agreement. These amendments are effective for public business entities for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company's operating results or financial condition.

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers." This update is a joint project with the International Accounting Standards Board initiated to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue and to develop a common revenue standard that is meant to remove inconsistencies and weaknesses in revenue requirements, provide a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues, improve comparability of revenue recognition practices, provide more useful information to users of financial statements and simplify the preparation of financial statements. The guidance in this update supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, "Revenue Recognition" and most industry-specific guidance throughout the Industry Topics of Codification. This update is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is evaluating the impact of this update and does not believe it will have a significant impact to the Company's operating results or financial condition.

These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and the issuance of financial guarantees in the form of financial and performance standby letters of credit. Such commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets.

The Company’s exposure to credit loss is represented by the contractual amount of these commitments. The Company follows the same credit policies in making commitments as they do for on-balance-sheet instruments.

The Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk for unfunded loan commitments and standby letters of credit at June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014 was as follows:

	June 30, 2015		December 31, 2014		June 30, 2014
	(in thousands)
Commitments to extend credit - fixed rate	$	43,796	$	37,819	$	35,290
Commitments to extend credit - variable rate	110,317		94,568		96,417
Total commitments to extend credit	$	154,113	$	132,387	$	131,707
Standby letters of credit	$	3,633	$	3,272	$	3,591

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to customers. Standby letters of credit are contingent commitments issued by the Company to guarantee performance of a customer to a third party under a contractual non-financial obligation for which it receives a fee. Financial standby letters of credit represent a commitment to guarantee customer repayment of an outstanding loan or debt instrument. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of fees. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company on extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property and equipment and income-producing commercial properties.

The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of its business. Additionally, in the ordinary course of business, the Company is subject to regulatory examinations, information gathering requests, inquiries, and investigations. The Company establishes accruals for litigation and regulatory matters when those matters present loss contingencies that the Company determines to be both probable and reasonably estimable. Based on current knowledge, advice of counsel and available insurance coverage, management does not believe that liabilities arising from legal claims, if any, will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. However, in light of the significant uncertainties involved in these matters, the early stage of various legal proceedings, and the indeterminate amount of damages sought in some of these matters, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of these matters, if unfavorable, could be material to the Company’s results of operations for any particular period.

The Company intends to vigorously pursue all available defenses to these claims. There are significant uncertainties involved in any litigation. Although the ultimate outcome of these lawsuits cannot be ascertained at this time, based upon information that presently is available to it, management is unable to predict the outcome of these cases and cannot determine the probability of an adverse result or reasonably estimate a range of potential loss, if any. In addition, management is unable to estimate a range of reasonably possible losses with respect to these claims.

Two putative shareholder class action lawsuits have been filed in connection with the merger. Knutson v. First Security

Group, Inc. et al., filed April 15, 2015 in the Chancery Court for Hamilton County, Tennessee, names First Security, the members

of its board of directors, and Atlantic Capital as defendants. Meade v. Kramer, et al., filed April 24, 2015 in the Chancery Court for Hamilton County, Tennessee, names First Security, the members of its board of directors, FSGBank, N.A., Atlantic Capital and Atlantic Capital Bank as defendants. Each of these complaints alleges, among other things, that the First Security directors breached their fiduciary duties in connection with the negotiation and approval of the merger agreement and that the other named defendants aided and abetted those alleged breaches of fiduciary duties. Among other relief, the plaintiffs seek injunctive relief preventing parties from consummating the merger, rescission of the transactions completed by the merger agreement, an award of attorney’s fees and expenses for plaintiffs and other forms of relief. On June 1, 2015, the Chancery Court entered an order

consolidating these two suits under the caption In re First Security Group, Inc. Stockholder Litigation, Case No. 15-0212. On June 25, 2015, the plaintiffs filed an amended and consolidated class action complaint in the Chancery Court for Hamilton County, Chattanooga. The amended complaint repeats many of the same allegations of the original complaints but also makes additional allegations with respect to disclosures contained in the joint proxy statement/prospectus. First Security believes that these lawsuits are without merit and intends to vigorously defend against them. First Security has not accrued a liability for these claims. On July 24, 2015, the defendants filed motions to dismiss the amended complaint.  A hearing on the motions to dismiss has been scheduled for August 31, 2015.
