NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Dollar amounts in thousands, except share and per share data)

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1—BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Franklin Financial Network, Inc. (“FFN”), and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Franklin Synergy Bank and BCG Consulting Group, Inc. (“BCG”), together referred to as “the Company,” have been prepared in accordance with instructions to Form 10-Q and therefore do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP). All adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods reported have been included as required by Regulation S-X, Rule 10-01. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. It is suggested that these interim consolidated financial statements and notes be read in conjunction with the financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 11, 2015.

NOTE 2—ACQUISITIONS

Acquisition of MidSouth Bank

On July 1, 2014 the Company completed the acquisition of MidSouth Bank (“MidSouth”), pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization and Bank Merger (the “merger agreement”) dated November 19, 2013.

The acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. The Company recognized goodwill on this acquisition of $9,124, which is nondeductible for tax purposes as this acquisition was a nontaxable transaction. The goodwill was calculated based on the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date.

At September 30, 2015, there were no circumstances or significant changes that have occurred since July 1, 2014 related to the acquisition of MidSouth that, in management’s assessment, would necessitate recording impairment of goodwill.

In the acquisition, the Company purchased $184,345 of loans at fair value, net of $7,347, or 3.8%, estimated discount to the outstanding principal balance, representing 38.0% of the Company’s total loans at September 30, 2014. Of the total loans acquired, management identified loans totaling $5,527 as having credit deficiencies. All loans that were on non-accrual status and all loan relationships that were identified as substandard or impaired as of the acquisition date were considered by management to be credit-impaired and are accounted for pursuant to ASC Topic 310-30. The table below summarizes the total contractually required principal and interest cash payments, management’s estimate of expected total cash payments and fair value of the loans as of July 1, 2014 for purchased credit-impaired (“PCI”) loans. Contractually required principal and interest payments have been adjusted for estimated prepayments.

Contractually required principal and interest	$	8,510
Non-accretable difference		(1,745	)
Cash flows expected to be collected		6,765
Accretable yield		(1,238	)
Total purchased credit-impaired loans acquired	$	5,527

In its assumption of the deposit liabilities, the Company believed the deposits assumed from the acquisition had an intangible value. The Company applied ASC Topic 805, which prescribes the accounting for goodwill and other intangible assets such as core deposit intangibles, in a business combination. The Company determined the estimated fair value of the core deposit intangible asset totaled $3,060, which is being amortized utilizing an accelerated amortization method over an estimated economic life of 8.2 years. Through September 30, 2015, the Company has recorded amortization of core deposit intangibles totaling $861.

Pro forma information

Pro forma data for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014 listed in the table below presents pro forma information as if the MidSouth acquisition occurred at the beginning of 2014. Because the MidSouth transaction closed on July 1, 2014, and its actual results are included in the Company’s actual operating results for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2014 and 2015 and for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015, there is no pro forma information for those periods.

	Nine Months Ended Sept 30, 2014
Net interest income	$	31,619
Net income available to common shareholders		6,353
Earnings per share—basic	$	0.82
Earnings per share—diluted	$	0.80

Supplemental pro forma earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 were adjusted to exclude acquisition-related costs that were incurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 of $2,112. Supplemental pro forma earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 were adjusted to include discount accretion and premium amortization related to the fair value adjustments to acquisition date assets and liabilities, as appropriate.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the acquisition of MidSouth increased pro forma net interest income by approximately $6,049 and net income available to common shareholders by approximately $849.

NOTE 3—SECURITIES

The following table summarizes the amortized cost and fair value of the available for sale securities portfolio at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 and the corresponding amounts of gross unrealized gains and losses recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income.

Unrealized losses on debt securities have not been recognized into income because the issuers bonds are of high credit quality (rated AA or higher), management does not intend to sell and it is likely that management will not be required to sell the securities prior to their anticipated recovery, and the decline in fair value is largely due to changes in interest rates and other market conditions. The fair value is expected to recover as the bonds approach maturity.

Credit Quality Indicators: The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors. The Company analyzes loans individually by classifying the loans as to credit risk. This analysis includes non-homogeneous loans, such as commercial and commercial real estate loans as well as non-homogeneous residential real estate loans. This analysis is performed on a quarterly basis. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:

Special Mention. Loans classified as special mention have a potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or of the institution’s credit position at some future date.

Substandard. Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

15

Loans not meeting the criteria above that are analyzed individually as part of the above described process are considered to be pass-rated loans. The following table includes PCI loans, which are included in the “Substandard” column. Based on the most recent analysis performed, the risk category of loans by class of loans is as follows as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014:

A portion of the fair value discount has been recognized as an accretable yield that is accreted into interest income over the estimated remaining life of the loans. The remaining non-accretable difference represents cash flows not expected to be collected.

The table below summarizes the total contractually required principal and interest cash payments, management’s estimate of expected total cash payments and carrying value of the loans as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. Contractually required principal and interest payments have been adjusted for estimated prepayments.

Management adjusted estimates of future expected losses, cash flows and renewal assumptions during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. These adjustments resulted in a decrease in expected cash flows and accretable yield, and a decrease in the non-accretable difference. The table below summarizes the changes in total contractually required principal and interest cash payments, management’s estimate of expected total cash payments and carrying value of the loans during the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015.

NOTE 6—SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS

In connection with the Company’s 2010 private offering, 32,425 warrants were issued to shareholders, one warrant for every twenty shares of common stock purchased. Each warrant allows the shareholders to purchase an additional share of common stock at $12.00 per share. The warrants were issued with an effective date of March 30, 2010 and will be exercisable in whole or in part up to seven years following the date of issuance. The warrants are detachable from the common stock. There were 4,970 warrants exercised during the nine months ended September 30, 2015, for which the Company received cash proceeds of $60. The exercised warrants had an aggregate intrinsic value of $46 at the date of exercise. No warrants were exercised during the nine months ended September 30, 2014. At September 30, 2015, there were 26,907 outstanding warrants associated with the 2010 offering.

Since the common stock of the Company has been registered under the Securities Act and has been traded on a national securities exchange at $15.00 or more for forty-five (45) consecutive days, the Company may redeem the 2010 warrants at any time with not less than thirty (30) days’ written notice to the holder of such 2010 warrant, in whole or in part, at a redemption price of $1.00 per warrant; provided, however, that the holder of the 2010 warrant may exercise the 2010 warrant, in whole or in part, during such thirty (30) day period.

Stock Option Plan: The Company’s 2007 Stock Option Plan (“stock option plan” or the “Plan”), which was shareholder-approved, permitted the grant of stock options to its employees, organizers and directors for up to 551,250 shares of common stock. The Plan was amended during April 2010 to increase the number of shares available for issuance to 1,000,000. In April 2013, the Plan was amended to offer additional forms of equity compensation, to change the Plan’s name to the Franklin Financial Network, Inc. 2007 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan, and to increase the number of authorized shares to 1,500,000. Shareholders approved amendments to the Company’s 2007 Stock Option Plan (“stock option plan” or the “Plan”) to increase the number of authorized shares to 2,000,000 in June 2014 and to 4,000,000 in February 2015. At September 30, 2015, there were 2,364,492 authorized shares available for issuance.

Employee, organizer and director awards are granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant; those option awards have a vesting period of 3 to 5 years and have a 10-year contractual term. The Company assigns discretion to its Board of Directors to make grants either as qualified incentive stock options or as non-qualified stock options. All employee grants are intended to be treated as qualified incentive stock options, if allowable. All other grants are expected to be treated as non-qualified.

On July 1, 2014, 322,300 MidSouth common stock options were converted into 137,280 options to purchase shares of FFN common stock with an exercise price of $8.57 per option pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement (see Note 2). Using the Black-Scholes option valuation model, the grant date fair value was estimated to be $6.31 per converted option based on the $14.50 fair value per share of FFN common stock at July 1, 2014. No compensation expense was required related to the converted options.

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 assumptions noted in the table below. Expected stock price volatility is based on historical volatilities of a peer group. The Company uses historical data to estimate option exercise and post-vesting termination behavior.

The expected term of options granted 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.

18

The fair value of options granted was determined using the following weighted-average assumptions as of grant date.

	September 30, 2015			September 30, 2014
Risk-free interest rate		1.84	%		1.81	%
Expected term		7.5 years			5.9 years
Expected stock price volatility		25.00	%		10.85	%
Dividend yield		0.22	%		0.23	%

The weighted average fair value of options granted for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 were $6.41 and $4.12, respectively.

A summary of the activity in the stock option plans for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 follows:

	Shares			Weighted Average Exercise Price		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term		Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Outstanding at beginning of year		1,210,660		$	11.32		6.53	$	7,244
Granted		226,782			20.78
Exercised		(93,754	)		11.53
Forfeited, expired, or cancelled		(4,417	)		19.02
Outstanding at period end		1,339,271		$	12.88		6.39	$	12,685
Vested or expected to vest		1,272,307		$	12.88		6.39	$	12,051
Exercisable at period end		829,072		$	10.76		5.06	$	9,606

The Company received cash proceeds of $780 for the options exercised during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The exercised options had an aggregate intrinsic value of $839 at the date of exercise.

As of September 30, 2015, there was $1,733 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options granted under the Plan. The cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.7 years.

Restricted Share Award Plan: Additionally, the Company’s 2007 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan provides for the granting of restricted share awards and other performance related incentives. During 2014, the Company awarded 87,374 restricted common shares to employees of the Company. When the restricted shares are awarded, a participant receives voting and dividend rights with respect to the shares, but is not able to transfer the shares until the restrictions have lapsed. These awards have a vesting period of three to five years and vest in equal annual installments on the anniversary date of the grant.

A summary of activity for non-vested restricted share awards for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 is as follows:

Non-vested Shares	Shares			Weighted- Average Grant-Date Fair Value
Non-vested at beginning of year		102,710		$	13.93
Granted		31,938			20.69
Vested		(25,075	)		14.08
Forfeited		(3,709	)		15.99
Non-vested at period end		105,864		$	15.89

Compensation expense associated with the restricted share awards is recognized on a straight-line basis over the time period that the restrictions associated with the awards lapse based on the total cost of the award at the grant date. As of September 30, 2015, there was $1,524 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested shares granted under the Plan. The cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.5 years.

NOTE 7—REGULATORY CAPITAL MATTERS

In July 2013, the Federal Reserve Board and the FDIC approved final rules that substantially amended the regulatory risk-based capital rules applicable to the Company and Bank. The final rules implement the regulatory capital reforms of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision reflected in “Basel III: A Global Framework for More Resilient Banks and Banking Systems” (“Basel III”) and changes required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.

Under these rules, the leverage and risk-based capital ratios of financial holding companies may not be lower than the leverage and risk-based capital ratios for insured depository institutions. The final rules implementing the Basel III regulatory capital reforms became effective to the Company and Bank on January 1, 2015, and include new minimum risk-based capital and leverage ratios. Moreover, these rules refine the definition of what constitutes capital for purposes of calculating those ratios, including the definitions of Tier 1 capital and Tier 2 capital.

In addition to the new minimum capital level requirements, the rules also establish a “capital conservation buffer” of 2.5% (to be phased in over three years) above the new regulatory minimum risk-based capital ratios, and result in the following minimum ratios once the capital conservation buffer is fully phased in: (i) a common Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 7.0%, (ii) a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 8.5%, and (iii) a total risk-based capital ratio of 10.5%. The capital conservation buffer is to be phased in beginning in January 2016 at 0.625% of risk-weighted assets and will increase each year until fully implemented in January 2019. An institution will be subject to limitations on paying dividends, engaging in share repurchases, and paying discretionary bonuses if capital levels fall below minimum levels plus the buffer amounts. These limitations establish a maximum percentage of eligible retained income that could be utilized for such actions.

The final rules allow banks and their holding companies with less than $250 billion in assets a one-time opportunity to opt-out of a requirement to include unrealized gains and losses in accumulated other comprehensive income in their capital calculation. The Company has opted out of this requirement.

Management believes, as of September 30, 2015, that the Company and Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject and met the requirements to be considered well-capitalized. The Company’s and Bank’s actual capital amounts and ratios are presented in the following table (in thousands):

	Actual					Required For Capital Adequacy Purposes					To Be Well Capitalized Under Prompt Corrective Action Regulations

Dividend Restrictions: The Company’s principal source of funds for dividend payments is dividends received from the Bank. Banking regulations limit the amount of dividends that may be paid without prior approval of regulatory agencies. Under these regulations, the amount of dividends that may be paid in any calendar year is limited to the current year’s net profits, combined with the retained net profits of the preceding two years, subject to the capital requirements described above. During 2015, the Bank could declare, without prior approval, dividends of approximately $13,836 plus any 2015 net profits retained to the date of declaration.

NOTE 8—FAIR VALUE

Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. 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 has the ability to 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 reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

The Company used the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate the fair value of each type of asset and liability:

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).

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

Impaired Loans: The fair value of impaired loans with specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses is generally 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. Appraisals for impaired loans are generally obtained annually but may be obtained more frequently based on changing circumstances as part of the aforementioned quarterly evaluation.

Foreclosed Assets: 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 which are updated no less frequently than annually. 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. Foreclosed assets are evaluated on a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly.

Loans Held For Sale: During 2014, the Company elected the fair value option for loans held for sale to align with other accounting policies related to mortgage banking, such as mortgage banking derivatives. These loans are typically sold to an investor following loan origination and the fair value of such accounts are readily available based on direct quotes from investors or similar transactions experienced in the secondary loan market. Fair value adjustments, as well as realized gains and losses are recorded in current earnings. Fair value is determined by market prices for similar transactions adjusted for specific attributes of that loan.

The methods and assumptions not previously described used to estimate fair value are described as follows:

(a) Cash and Cash Equivalents: The carrying amounts of cash and short-term instruments approximate fair values and are classified as Level 1.

(b) Loans: Fair values of loans, excluding loans held for sale, are estimated as follows: For variable rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values resulting in a Level 3 classification. Fair values for other loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality resulting in a Level 3 classification. Impaired loans are valued at the lower of cost or fair value as described previously. The methods utilized to estimate the fair value of loans do not necessarily represent an exit price.

The fair value of loans held for sale is estimated based upon binding contracts and quotes from third party investors resulting in a Level 2 classification.

(c) Restricted Equity Securities: It is not practical to determine the fair value of Federal Home Loan Bank or Federal Reserve Bank stock due to restrictions placed on its transferability.

23

(d) Mortgage Servicing Rights: Fair value of mortgage servicing rights is based on valuation models that calculate the present value of estimated net cash flows based on industry market data. The valuation model incorporates assumptions that market participants would use in estimating future net cash flows resulting in a Level 2 classification.

(e) Deposits: The fair values disclosed for demand deposits (e.g., interest and non-interest checking, savings, and certain types of money market accounts) are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amount) resulting in a Level 1 classification. The carrying amounts of fixed-term money market accounts approximate their fair values at the reporting date resulting in a Level 1 classification. Fair values for certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flows calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits resulting in a Level 2 classification.

(f) Federal Funds Purchased and Repurchase Agreements: The carrying amounts of federal funds purchased, borrowings under repurchase agreements, and other short-term borrowings, generally maturing within ninety days, approximate their fair values resulting in a Level 2 classification.

(g) Federal Home Loan Bank Advances: The fair values of the Company’s long-term borrowings are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on the current borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements resulting in a Level 2 classification.

(h) Accrued Interest Receivable/Payable: The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate fair value resulting in a Level 1 or Level 2 classification based on the asset/liability that they are associated with.

(i) Off-balance Sheet Instruments: Fair values for off-balance sheet, credit-related financial instruments are based on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing. The fair value of commitments is not material.

NOTE 9—SECURITIES SOLD UNDER AGREEMENT TO REPURCHASE

Our subsidiary bank enters into borrowing arrangements with our retail business customers through agreements to repurchase (“securities sold under agreements to repurchase”) under which the bank pledges investment securities owned and under its control as collateral against these one-day borrowing arrangements. At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, these short-term borrowings totaled $37,618 and $22,253, respectively.

The following table provides additional details as of September 30, 2015:

As of September 30, 2015	U.S. Government Sponsored Entities and Agencies Securities			Mortgage- Backed Securities: Residential			Mortgage- Backed Securities: Commercial			Total
Market value of securities pledged	$	6,039		$	33,542		$	3,471		$	43,052
Borrowings related to pledged amounts	$	4,734		$	29,623		$	3,261		$	37,618
Market value pledged as a % of borrowings		128	%		113	%		106	%		114	%

Any risks related to these arrangements, primarily from market value changes, are minimized due to the overnight (one day) maturity and the additional collateral pledged over the borrowed amounts.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion is intended to assist in the understanding and assessment of significant changes and trends related to the Company’s results of operations and financial condition. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying unaudited financial statements, the financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Prospectus filed with the SEC on March 27, 2015, which includes additional information about critical accounting policies and practices and risk factors, and Item 1A of Part II of this report, which updates those risk factors. Historical results and trends that might appear in the condensed consolidated financial statements should not be interpreted as being indicative of future operations. All amounts are in thousands, except per share data or unless otherwise indicated.

Critical Accounting Policies

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and conform to general practices within the banking industry. To prepare financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management makes estimates and assumptions based on available information. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the disclosures provided, and actual results could differ.

The Company’s accounting policies are integral to understanding the results reported. Accounting policies are described in detail in Note 1 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements. The critical accounting policies require judgment to ascertain the valuation of assets, liabilities, commitments and contingencies. Management has established policies and control procedures that are intended to ensure valuation methods are well controlled and applied consistently from period to period. In addition, the policies and procedures are intended to ensure that the process for changing methodologies occurs in an appropriate manner. The following is a brief summary of the more significant policies.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include Franklin Financial Network, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Franklin Synergy Bank and BCG Consulting Group, Inc. (“BCG”), together referred to as “the Company.” The Company sold the assets of BCG in December 2014; therefore, only the consolidated statements of income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 contain income and expenses that include BCG. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and conform to general practices within the banking industry. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

Purchased Loans

The Company maintains an allowance for loan losses on purchased loans based on credit deterioration subsequent to the acquisition date. In accordance with the accounting guidance for business combinations, because we recorded all acquired loans at fair value as of the date of the MidSouth acquisition, we did not establish an allowance for loan losses on any of the loans we purchased as of the acquisition date as any credit deterioration evident in the loans was included in the determination of the acquisition date fair values. For purchased credit-impaired loans accounted for under ASC 310-30, management establishes an allowance for loan losses subsequent to the date of acquisition by re-estimating expected cash flows on these loans on a quarterly basis, with any decline in expected cash flows due to credit triggering impairment recorded as provision for loan losses. The allowance established is the excess of the loan’s carrying value over the present value of projected future cash flows, discounted at the current accounting yield of the loan. These cash flow evaluations are inherently subjective as they require material estimates, all of which may be susceptible to significant change. While the determination of specific cash flows involves estimates, each estimate is unique to the individual loan, and none is individually significant. For non-purchased credit-impaired loans acquired in the MidSouth transaction and that are accounted for under ASC 310-20, the historical loss estimates are based on the historical losses experienced by MidSouth for loans with similar characteristics as those acquired other than purchased credit-impaired loans.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. Management estimates the allowance balance required using past loan loss experience, the nature and volume of the portfolio, information about specific borrower situations and estimated collateral values, economic conditions, and other factors.

Allocations of the allowance may be made for specific loans, but the entire allowance is available for any loan that, in management’s judgment, should be charged off.

27

The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are individually classified as impaired. A loan is 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. Loans for which the terms have been modified resulting in a concession, and for which the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties, are considered troubled debt restructurings and classified as impaired.

Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed.

All loans classified by management as substandard or worse are individually evaluated for impairment. If a loan is impaired, a portion of the allowance is allocated so that the loan is reported, net, at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s existing rate or at the fair value of collateral if repayment is expected solely from the collateral.

Troubled debt restructurings are separately identified for impairment disclosures and are measured at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s effective rate at inception. If a troubled debt restructuring is considered to be a collateral dependent loan, the loan is reported, net, at the fair value of the collateral. For troubled debt restructurings that subsequently default, the Company determines the amount of reserve in accordance with the accounting policy for the allowance for loan losses.

The general component covers non-impaired loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for current factors. The historical loss experience is determined by portfolio segment and is based on a combination of the Bank’s loss history and loss history from the Bank’s peer group over the past three years. This actual loss experience is supplemented with other economic factors based on the risks present for each portfolio segment. These economic factors include consideration of the following: levels of and trends in delinquencies and impaired loans; levels of and trends in charge-offs and recoveries; trends in volume and terms of loans; effects of any changes in risk selection and underwriting standards; other changes in lending policies, procedures, and practices; experience, ability, and depth of lending management and other relevant staff; national and local economic trends and conditions; industry conditions; and effects of changes in credit concentrations.

Mortgage Servicing Rights

When loans are sold with servicing retained, servicing rights are initially recorded at fair value with the income statement effect recorded in gain on sale of loans. Fair value is based on market prices for comparable servicing contracts. All classes of servicing assets are subsequently measured using the amortization method which requires servicing rights to be amortized into non-interest income in proportion to, and over the period of, the estimated future net servicing income of the underlying loans.

Servicing assets are evaluated for impairment based upon the fair value of the rights as compared to carrying amount. Impairment is determined by stratifying rights into groupings based on predominant risk characteristics, such as interest rate, loan type and investor type. Impairment is recognized through a valuation allowance for an individual grouping, to the extent that fair value is less than the carrying amount. If the Company later determines that all or a portion of the impairment no longer exists for a particular grouping, a reduction of the allowance may be recorded as an increase to income. Changes in valuation allowances are reported with loan servicing fees on the income statement. The fair values of servicing rights are subject to significant fluctuations as a result of changes in estimated and actual prepayment speeds and default rates and losses.

Servicing fee income, which is reported on the income statement as loan servicing fees, is recorded for fees earned for servicing loans. The fees are based on a contractual percentage of the outstanding principal or a fixed amount per loan and are recorded as income when earned. The amortization of mortgage servicing rights is netted against mortgage loan servicing fee income.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

There are currently no new accounting standards that have been issued that will have a significant impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows upon adoption that were not disclosed in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K.

COMPARISON OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED

SEPTEMBER 30, 2015 AND 2014

Overview

The Company reported net income of $5,150 and $11,416 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, respectively, compared to $2,015 and $5,579 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively. After the payment of preferred dividends on the senior preferred stock issued to the Treasury pursuant to Small Business Lending Fund (“SBLF”), the Company’s net earnings available to common shareholders for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 was $5,125 and $11,341, respectively, compared to $1,990 and $5,504, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014. The primary reason for the increase in net earnings available to common shareholders for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 was increased interest income on loans and investment securities compared with the same periods in 2014. The increase in loans was due to significant organic growth and due to the acquisition of MidSouth which, after considering the effect of purchase accounting entries, added $191,416 in loans when the transaction was completed on July 1, 2014. The growth in the securities portfolio is primarily attributable to the capital leverage program that was implemented during the second quarter of 2015 to utilize proceeds received from the issuance of common stock in conjunction with the Company’s initial public stock offering on March 26, 2015. Through the execution of the leverage program, the Company purchased $394,142 in securities during the second and third quarters of 2015. The acquisition of MidSouth also added $57,431 in securities available-for-sale, after the effect of purchase accounting entries, when the transaction was completed on July 1, 2014.

Net Interest Income/Margin

Net interest income consists of interest income generated by earning assets less interest expense paid on interest-bearing liabilities and is the most significant component of our revenues. Net interest income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, totaled $16,736 and $42,220, respectively, compared to $11,127 and $25,570, respectively, for the same periods in 2014, an increase of $5,609 and $16,650, or 50.4% and 65.1%, between the respective periods. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, interest income increased $6,609 and $18,950, or 52.1% and 63.8%, respectively, due to growth in both the loan and investment securities portfolios. In addition, the Company received a full payoff during the third quarter of 2015 on a purchase credit-impaired loan relationship that resulted in an increase in loan interest income for $1,155 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, of which $785 was a reallocation of unaccretable difference related to the portion of the relationship that had been charged off prior to the Company’s purchase of the relationship. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, interest expense increased $1,000 and $2,300, or 63.9% and 55.8%, respectively, primarily as a result of increases in volumes of both interest-bearing deposits and borrowings.

Interest-earning assets averaged $1,846,372 and $1,575,748, respectively, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to $1,143,401 and $938,406, respectively, for the same periods in 2014, an increase of $702,971 and $637,342, or 61.5% and 67.9%, respectively. This increase was primarily due to organic growth in both the loan and securities portfolios over the past year, increases to the securities portfolio as a result of a capital leverage program that was implemented during the second quarter of 2015, and due to the acquisition of MidSouth. Average loans increased 45.2% and 69.1% and average investment securities increased 96.1% and 67.0%, respectively, when comparing the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 with the same periods in 2014. When comparing the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the yield on average interest earning assets decreased 11 basis points and three basis points to 4.29% and 4.20%, respectively, compared to 4.40% and 4.23%, for the same periods during 2014.

The tax-equivalent yield on available-for-sale securities was 2.60% and 2.42%, respectively, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to 2.45% and 2.62%, respectively, for the same periods in 2014. The primary driver for the increase in yield during the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared with the same period in 2014 was due to the volume of tax-exempt securities purchased during the second and third quarters of 2015, which increased the yields by 28 basis points when considering tax equivalent adjustments. The primary driver for the decrease in yield during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared with the same period in 2014 was due to decreases in the weighted coupon rate, which decreased by 24 basis points between the two periods.

Interest-bearing liabilities averaged $1,550,007 and $1,311,229, respectively, during the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 compared to $952,871 and $797,635, respectively, for the same periods in 2014, an increase of $597,136 and $513,594, or 62.7% and 64.4%, respectively. Total average interest-bearing deposits grew $552,382 and $473,127, including increases in average brokered deposits of $461,131 and $229,202 and average interest-bearing public funds deposits of $23,313 and $61,552 for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015, respectively, as compared to the same periods during 2014. The increases in brokered deposits were directly attributable to the Company’s leverage program that began in the second quarter of 2015 and the rapid growth in the loan and portfolio. That growth also resulted in increases in average Federal Home Loan Bank advances of $23,935 and $14,099, respectively, and average other borrowed funds of $20,819 and $26,368, respectively, for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 as compared to the same periods during 2014. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities for the three months ended September 30, 2015 increased by one basis point when comparing the cost of interest-bearing liabilities with the same period of 2014. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 decreased by four basis points when comparing the cost of interest-bearing liabilities with the same period of 2014, with the largest declines in interest costs being reported in money market deposits, in Federal Home Loan Bank advances and in other borrowed funds.

The tables below detail the components of the changes in net interest income for the periods indicated. For each major category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, information is provided with respect to changes due to average volume and changes due to rates, with the changes in both volumes and rates allocated to these two categories based on the proportionate absolute changes in each category.

Provision for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses represents a charge to earnings necessary to establish an allowance for loan losses that, in our management’s evaluation, should be adequate to provide coverage for probable losses incurred in the loan portfolio. The allowance is increased by the provision for loan losses and is decreased by charge-offs, net of recoveries on prior loan charge-offs.

The provision for loan losses was $1,724 and $664 for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $3,154 and $1,489 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The higher provision for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to the same period in 2014 is due primarily to the Company’s loan growth during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, compared to the same periods in 2014. The Company’s provision related to commercial and industrial loans increased from $243 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 to $1,927 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 due to the growth in commercial and industrial loans, which includes growth produced by the Company’s healthcare lending team over the past two quarters. Nonperforming loans at September 30, 2015 totaled $835 compared to $1,151 at December 31, 2014, representing 0.05% and 0.14% of total loans, respectively.

33

Non-Interest Income

Non-interest income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 was $3,798 and $9,864, respectively, compared to $3,274 and $7,125, respectively, for the same periods in 2014. The following is a summary of the components of non-interest income (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended September 30,					$ Increase (Decrease)			% Increase (Decrease)
	2015		2014
Service charges on deposit accounts	$	44	$	13		$	31			238.5	%

Total non-interest income	$	9,864	$	7,125	$	2,739			38.4	%

Other service charges and fees for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 increased $79 and $838, or 13.2% and 72.9%, respectively, from the same periods in 2014. The increases for both periods were due to: (1) the MidSouth acquisition, which contributed to an increase in electronic banking fee income; (2) mortgage origination fee income, which increased due to the volume of loans originated during the periods; and (3) nonsufficient funds and overdraft fees, which have increased due to the number of accounts that were added in the MidSouth acquisition.

Net gains on the sale of loans include net gains realized from the sales of mortgage loans and Small Business Administration (“SBA”) loans. Net gains on the sale of mortgage loans are based, in part, on differences between the carrying value of loans being sold to third-party investors and the selling price. Also included are changes in the fair value of mortgage banking derivatives entered into by the Company to hedge the change in interest rates on loan commitments prior to their sale in the secondary market. Fluctuations in mortgage interest rates, changes in the demand for certain loans by investors, and whether servicing rights associated with the loans being sold are retained or released all affect the net gains on mortgage loan sales. Net gains for the three months ended September 30, 2015 were $2,463, an increase of $588, or 31.4%, from the same period during 2014. The increase was primarily due to favorable differences between the selling price and the carrying value of the sold loans and due to an increase in the fair value of mortgage banking derivatives. Net gains for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 were $5,573, an increase of $1,347, or 31.9%, from the same period in 2014. The increase was due to increased mortgage loan origination volume and due to more favorable differences between the selling price and the carrying value of the sold loans and due to an increase in the fair value of mortgage banking derivatives when comparing the nine months ended September 30, 2015 with the same period in 2014.

Loan servicing fees are fees earned for servicing residential mortgages and SBA loans offset by the amortization of the respective servicing rights. These servicing rights are initially recorded at fair value and then amortized in proportion to, and over the period of, the estimated life of the underlying loans. In addition, impairment to the servicing rights may be recognized through a valuation allowance, and adjustments to the allowance can affect the net loan servicing fees. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, net loan servicing fees were $84 and $187, respectively, compared to $73 and $173, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014. The increase in loan servicing fees when comparing the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 with the same period in 2014 was primarily related to an increase in the volume of mortgage loans and originated and servicing premiums retained.

34

Net gain on sale of investment securities decreased $17, or 77.3%, during the three months ended September 30, 2015 when compared with the same period in 2014. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015 net gain on sale of investment securities increased 468.8% when compared with the same period in 2014. The significant increase for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 is attributable to the sales and calls of securities during 2015, $291 of which was related to securities called during the first quarter of 2015.

Wealth management income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 increased $40 and $550, or 13.9% and 151.1%, respectively, in comparison with the same periods in 2014. The increase in the three-month comparative periods was due to the increase in accounts under management. The increase in the nine-month comparative periods was primarily due to the acquisition of MidSouth, which brought an established wealth management division and its existing client base into the Company when the acquisition was completed on July 1, 2014. There have been a full nine months of earnings recorded in 2015 that included the MidSouth wealth management team’s client versus only three months of earnings in 2014.

Other non-interest income decreased by $214, or 52.6%, when comparing third quarter 2015 with third quarter 2014, and it decreased by $489, or 46.4%, when comparing the nine months ended September 30, 2015 with the same period in 2014. The decrease is attributed to the compliance consulting fees that were recorded in 2014 by the Company’s subsidiary, BCG, the assets of which the Company sold at the end of 2014. The Company had no compliance consulting fee income in 2015 due to the sale of BCG.

Non-interest Expense

Non-interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 was $10,853 and $31,046, respectively, compared to $10,389 and $21,959 compared to the same periods in 2014. These increases were the result of the following components listed in the table below:

	Three Months Ended September 30,				$ Increase (Decrease)			% Increase (Decrease)
	2015		2014
Salaries and employee benefits	$	6,208	$	6,144	$	64			1.0	%

Total non-interest expense	$	31,046	$	21,959	$	9,087			41.4	%

The increase in non-interest expense noted in the table above is indicative of the Company’s overall growth over the past 12 months. Two primary increases for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, were in salaries and occupancy expenses, which were primarily attributed to: 1) the acquisition of MidSouth, which added the MidSouth employee base and five branch locations to the Bank’s branch network; and 2) the expansion of the Company’s headquarters in downtown Franklin, Tennessee. Also, while the number of full-time equivalent employees has been stable when comparing September 30, 2015 and

35

2014, the composition of the Bank’s personnel has changed with the addition of several experienced lenders during 2015. When comparing the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, there were nine months of expenses in 2015 related to the MidSouth acquisition compared to only three months of expenses in 2014 related to the acquisition.

The decrease in professional fees for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 is attributable to the expenses that were incurred in 2014 relative to the Company’s acquisition of MidSouth.

The increase in amortization expense for the core deposit intangible for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 is directly attributable to the acquisition of MidSouth, which brought a core deposit intangible asset that is being amortized over a period of eight years and two months. Only three months of amortization was recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2014, as compared with amortization expense that was recognized for a full nine months during 2015.

The increase in indirect expenses related to public offering for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 is attributable to indirect expenses incurred from management’s nationwide “roadshow” marketing campaign related to the Company’s initial public offering (“IPO”).

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, other non-interest expenses increased $395 and $1,884, or 31.5% and 73.6%, respectively from the same periods in 2014. Of the increases for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, $192 and $351, respectively, is attributed to the increase in lending-related expenses associated with the Company’s growing lending portfolio. Customers’ increased usage of technology-based services, such as ATM/debit card transactions, internet banking transactions, and other types of automated transactions accounted for $325 of the increase for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 when compared with the same period of 2014. Much of the electronic banking expense increase was attributable to the MidSouth acquisition, which added more consumers to the Company’s customer base. The remaining increases of $203 and $1,208, respectively, were due to a variety of expense items that include, but are not limited to, deposit account expense, insurance expense, postage and freight, franchise taxes, meals and entertainment, travel, communications expenses, etc.

Income Tax Expense

The Company recognized income tax expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, of $2,807 and $6,468, respectively, compared to $1,333 and $3,668, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014. The Company’s year-to-date income tax expense for the period ended September 30, 2015 reflects an effective income tax rate of 36.2% compared to 39.7% for the same period in 2014. The decrease in the effective tax rate resulted from several factors, as follows: increased tax-exempt investment income during the nine months ended September 30, 2015, unfavorable permanent differences incurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2014, from expenses associated with the acquisition of MidSouth and from stock-based compensation expense incurred from the vesting of incentive stock options as a result of employee retirement.

COMPARISON OF BALANCE SHEETS AT SEPTEMBER 30, 2015 AND DECEMBER 31, 2014

Overview

The Company’s total assets increased by $646,711, or 47.7%, from December 31, 2014 to September 30, 2015. The increase in total assets has primarily been the result of organic growth in the loan and investment securities portfolios.

Loans

Lending-related income is the most important component of the Company’s net interest income and is a major contributor to profitability. The loan portfolio is the largest component of earning assets, and therefore generates the largest portion of revenues. The absolute volume of loans and the volume of loans as a percentage of earning assets is an important determinant of net interest margin as loans are expected to produce higher yields than securities and other earning assets. Total loans, net of deferred fees, at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 were $1,123,826 and $787,188, respectively, an increase of $336,638, or 42.8%. Growth in the loan portfolio is primarily due to increased market penetration and a healthy local economy. In addition, the Company added a new health care lending team in the second quarter of 2015 that has been focused on commercial and industrial lending, with emphasis on lending within the health care industry, thereby helping to diversify the Company’s loan mix. During the third quarter, this team added over $64 million in loans with a number of approved loans in their pipeline to be closed during the fourth quarter of 2015.

Note 1: PCI accounted for pursuant to ASC Topic 310-30.

As presented in the previous table, gross loans increased 42.8% during the first nine months of 2015, primarily due to organic growth as a result of continued market penetration and the strength of the local economies the Company serves. During this period, the Company experienced growth in real estate loans of 27.9% with the majority of the growth occurring in the construction and land development category, which increased 39.7% during the first nine months of 2015. The Company also experienced strong growth of 182.7% in the commercial and industrial segment during the first nine months of 2015 due to the second quarter addition of a group of lenders that is focused on commercial and health care lending.

Real estate loans comprised 79.8% of the loan portfolio at September 30, 2015. The following chart displays the composition of the Company’s loan portfolio as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, broken down into the three major segments or types of loans that the Company produces and stated as a percentage of total loans:

37

The largest portion of the real estate loan segments as of September 30, 2015, was construction and land development loans, which totaled 37.2% of real estate loans and was broken down into three sub-segments: residential construction (27.6% of real estate loans), commercial construction (5.6% of real estate loans), and acquisition and development (4.0% of real estate loans). Construction and land development loans totaled $334,285 and made up 29.7% of the total loan portfolio at September 30, 2015. Loans in this classification provide financing for the construction and development of residential properties and commercial income properties, multi-family residential development, and land designated for future development.

Commercial real estate loans totaled $314,587 at September 30, 2015, and comprised 35.0% of real estate loans and 28.0% of the total loan portfolio. The commercial real estate loan classification primarily includes commercial-based mortgage loans that are secured by nonfarm, nonresidential real estate properties and multi-family residential properties.

The residential real estate classification primarily includes 1-4 family residential loans which are typically conventional first-lien home mortgages, not including loans held-for-sale in the secondary market. Residential real estate loans totaled $249,160 and comprised 27.7% of real estate loans and 22.1% of total loans at September 30, 2015.

Commercial and industrial loans totaled $221,016 at September 30, 2015 and grew 182.7% during the first nine months of 2015. As indicated in the chart above, loans in this classification comprised 19.6% of total loans at September 30, 2015, as compared to 9.9% as of December 31, 2014. This change reflects the Company’s specific actions that were taken to diversify the loan portfolio. The commercial and industrial classification primarily consists of commercial loans to healthcare companies and small-to-medium sized businesses. With the addition of the healthcare lending team during the second quarter of 2015, the composition of that portfolio segment has changed and will likely continue to change to reflect the addition of healthcare and other types of commercial loans. Since becoming part of the Company, the healthcare lending team has produced $89,000 in loan volume.

The repayment of loans is a source of additional liquidity for the Company. The following table sets forth the loans maturing within specific intervals at September 30, 2015, excluding unearned net fees and costs.

Loan Maturity Schedule

	September 30, 2015
	One year or less		Over one year to five years		Over five years		Total
Real estate:
Construction and land development	$	173,194	$	122,132	$	38,959	$	334,285

Total	$	261,946	$	482,038	$	381,957		1,125,941

The information presented in the above table is based upon the contractual maturities of the individual loans, including loans which may be subject to renewal at their contractual maturity. Renewal of such loans is subject to review and credit approval, as well as modification of terms upon their maturity. Consequently, management believes this treatment presents fairly the maturity structure of the loan portfolio.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The Company maintains an allowance for loan losses that management believes is adequate to absorb the probable incurred losses inherent in the Company’s loan portfolio. The allowance is increased by provisions for loan losses charged to earnings and is decreased by loan charge-offs net of recoveries of prior period loan charge-offs. The level of the allowance is determined on a quarterly basis, although management is engaged in monitoring the adequacy of the allowance on a more frequent basis. In estimating the allowance balance, the following factors are considered:

• Past loan experience;

• The nature and volume of the portfolio;

• Risks known about specific borrowers;

• Underlying estimated values of collateral securing loans;

• Current and anticipated economic conditions; and

• Other factors which may affect the allowance for probable incurred losses.

The allowance for loan losses consists of two primary components: (1) a specific component which relates to loans that are individually classified as impaired and (2) a general component which covers non-impaired loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for current factors. The historical loss experience is determined by portfolio segment and is based on a combination of the Company’s loss history and loss history from peer group over the past three years. This actual loss experience is supplemented with other economic factors based on the risks present for each portfolio segment.

The following loan portfolio segments have been identified: (1) Construction and land development loans, (2) Commercial real estate loans, (3) Residential real estate, (4) Commercial and industrial loans, and (5) Consumer and other loans. Management evaluates the risks associated with these segments based upon specific characteristics associated with the loan segments. These risk characteristics include, but are not limited to, the value of the underlying collateral, adverse economic conditions, and the borrower’s cash flow. While the total allowance consists of a specific portion and a general portion, both portions of the allowance are available to provide for probable incurred loan losses in the entire portfolio.

In the table below, the components, as discussed above, of the allowance for loan losses are shown at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

	September 30, 2015							December 31, 2014							Increase (Decrease)

Note 1: Loans acquired pursuant to the July 1, 2014 acquisition of MidSouth that are not PCI loans. These are performing loans recorded at estimated fair value at the acquisition date. The fair value adjustment at the acquisition date was approximately $5,014 of the outstanding non-PCI loan balances acquired, and the remaining fair value adjustment at September 30, 2015 was $2,710 of the outstanding non-PCI loan balances acquired. This amount is accreted into interest income over the remaining lives of the related loans on a level yield basis. Because these loans were recorded at estimated fair value on July 1, 2014, no allowance for loan loss was recorded at September 30, 2015 related to the acquired loans.

At September 30, 2015, the allowance for loan losses was $9,744, compared to $6,680 at December 31, 2014. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans was 0.87% and 0.85% at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. Loan growth during this period is the primary reason for the increase in the allowance amount.

Nonperforming Assets

Non-performing loans consist of non-accrual loans and loans that are past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest. Non-performing assets consist of non-performing loans plus OREO (i.e., real estate acquired through foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure). Loans are placed on non-accrual status when they are past due 90 days and management believes the borrower’s financial condition, after giving consideration to economic conditions and collection efforts, is such that collection of interest is doubtful. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, interest accruals cease and uncollected interest is reversed and charged against current income. The interest on these loans is accounted for on the cash-basis, or cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

40

The primary component of non-performing loans is non-accrual loans, which as of September 30, 2015 totaled $835. The other component of non-performing loans are loans past due greater than 90 days and still accruing interest. Loans past due greater than 90 days are placed on non-accrual status, unless they are both well-secured and in the process of collection. There were outstanding no loans that were past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest at September 30, 2015.

The table below summarizes non-performing loans and assets for the periods presented.

Investment Securities and Other Earning Assets

The investment securities portfolio is intended to provide the Company with adequate liquidity, flexible asset/liability management and a source of stable income. The portfolio is structured with minimal credit exposure to the Company and consists of both securities classified as available-for-sale and securities classified as held-to-maturity. All available-for sale securities are carried at fair value and may be used for liquidity purposes should management deem it to be in the Company’s best interest. Securities available-for-sale, consisting primarily of U.S. government sponsored enterprises and mortgage-backed securities and municipal securities, were $624,420 at September 30, 2015, compared to $395,705 at December 31, 2014, an increase of $228,715 or 57.8%.

The held-to-maturity securities are carried at amortized cost. This portfolio, consisting of U.S. government sponsored enterprises, mortgage-backed securities and municipal securities, totaled $132,134 at September 30, 2015, compared to $53,332 at December 31, 2014, an increase of $78,802, or 147.8%.

The increase in investment securities was primarily attributed to the securities purchased during the second and third quarters of 2015 as part of the Company’s capital leverage program, which was designed to deploy the capital that was raised at the end of the first quarter of 2015.

The combined portfolios represented 37.8% and 33.1% of total assets at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. At September 30, 2015, the Company had no securities that were classified as having other than temporary impairment.

The Company also had other investments of $7,691 and $5,349 at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, consisting of capital stock in the Federal Reserve and the Federal Home Loan Bank (required as members of the Federal Reserve Bank System and the Federal Home Loan Bank System). The Federal Home Loan Bank and Federal Reserve investments are “restricted” in that they can only be sold back to the respective institutions or another member institution at par, and are thus, not liquid, have no ready market or quoted market value, and are carried at cost. The increase from December 31, 2014 to September 30, 2015 was due to the Bank’s growth in capital at the end of the first quarter of 2015, which required the Bank to purchase additional Federal Reserve Bank stock based on the Federal Reserve Bank’s requirements for state member banks.

41

Bank Premises and Equipment

Bank premises and equipment totaled $9,360 at September 30, 2015 compared to $9,664 at December 31, 2014, a decrease of $304, or 3.1%.

Buildings Held for Sale

At September 30, 2015, the balance in buildings held for sale was zero, compared with the balance of $4,080 at December 31, 2014. Three of the former MidSouth branch properties were reclassified at December 31, 2014 as held for sale, since they had been identified to be sold, and the sale of the properties was probable at that time. These properties were sold to related parties of the Company and were subsequently leased by the Company upon completion of the sale. The sale of these properties settled during the first quarter of 2015, and a gain of $15 was realized as a result of the sale.

Deposits

Deposits represent the Company’s largest source of funds. The Company competes with other financial institutions for deposits, as well as with a growing number of non-deposit investment alternatives available to depositors, such as mutual funds, money market funds, annuities, and other brokerage investment products. Challenges to deposit growth include price changes on deposit products given movements in the rate environment and other competitive pricing pressures, and customer preferences regarding higher-costing deposit products or non-deposit investment alternatives.

At September 30, 2015, total deposits were $1,714,594, compared to $1,172,233 at December 31, 2014, an increase of $542,361, or 46.3%. The growth in deposits is primarily attributable to growth in brokered deposits, which was an integral part of the Company’s funding plan in the capital leverage program initiated during the second quarter of 2015. The Company’s deposits are broken out in the table below:

	Sept 30, 2015		Dec 31, 2014		Change ($)			Change (%)
Deposits:
Non-interest bearing deposits	$	177,452	$	150,337	$	27,115			18.0	%
Interest checking deposits:
Public funds deposits		126,767		210,587		(83,820	)		(39.8	)
Non-public funds deposits		101,219		87,930		13,289			15.1
Brokered deposits		1,652		1,301		351			27.0
Total interest checking		229,638		299,818		(70,180	)		(23.4	)
Money market deposits:
Public funds deposits		116,518		131,592		(15,074	)		(11.5	)
Non-public funds deposits		199,583		207,600		(8,017	)		(3.9	)
Brokered deposits		195,036		32,017		163,019			509.2
Total money market deposits		511,137		371,209		139,928			37.7
Savings deposits		38,665		29,675		8,990			30.3
Time deposits:
Non-brokered time deposits		288,898		268,101		20,797			7.8
Brokered time deposits†		468,804		53,093		415,711			783.0
Total time deposits		757,702		321,194		436,508			135.9
Total deposits	$	1,714,594	$	1,172,233	$	542,361			46.3	%

^†  Brokered time deposits included public funds time deposits of $52,011 and $8,133 at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, which were part of the Company’s participation in the Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service (CDARS) program.

Total brokered deposits increased from $86,411 at December 31, 2014 to $665,492 at September 30, 2015, primarily due to brokered deposits that were added as part of the Company’s capital leverage program that was initiated during the second quarter of 2015, the funding from which was used to purchase investment securities and fund loan growth to earn an interest rate spread over the brokered deposits, thereby increasing the Company’s net interest income.

42

Public funds deposits in the form of county deposits are also a part of the Company’s funding strategy and are cyclical in nature, with the highest period of growth being during the first quarter of each calendar year. At September 30, 2015, non-brokered public funds totaled $243,285, compared with $342,179 at December 31, 2014, a decrease of $98,894, or 28.9%.

Time deposits excluding brokered deposits as of September 30, 2015, amounted to $288,898, compared to $268,101 as of December 31, 2014, an increase of $20,797, or 7.8%. Noninterest-bearing checking deposits grew $27,115, or 18.0%, and non-public funds interest checking accounts grew $13,289, or 15.1%, respectively when comparing deposit balances from September 30, 2015 with balances at December 31, 2014.

The following table shows time deposits in denominations of $100 or more by category based on time remaining until maturity.

Maturity of non-brokered time deposits of $100 or more

	September 30, 2015
Three months or less	$	29,292
Three through six months		12,209
Six through twelve months		57,478
Over twelve months		98,768
Total	$	197,747

Federal Funds Purchased and Repurchase Agreements

As of September 30, 2015, the Company had no federal funds purchased from correspondent banks compared to $16,825 outstanding as of December 31, 2014. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase had an outstanding balance of $37,618 as of September 30, 2015, compared to $22,253 as of December 31, 2014. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase are financing arrangements that mature daily. At maturity, the securities underlying the agreements are returned to the Company.

Federal Home Loan Bank Advances

The Company has established a line of credit with the Federal Home Bank of Cincinnati (“FHLB”) which is secured by a blanket pledge of 1-4 family residential mortgages. At September 30, 2015 these advances totaled $57,000, compared with advances of $19,000 at December 31, 2014. The growth in the FHLB advances is attributable to the capital leverage program that management initiated in the second quarter of 2015, the funding for which was initially used to purchase investment securities to earn a spread over the borrowing costs.

At September 30, 2015, the scheduled maturities of these and advances and interest rates were as follows:

Scheduled Maturities	Amount		Weighted Average Rates
2015	$	40,000		0.22	%
2016		—		—	%
2017		10,000		1.27	%
2018		7,000		1.61	%
Total	$	57,000		0.57	%

Liquidity

Liquidity is defined as the ability to meet anticipated customer demands for funds under credit commitments and deposit withdrawals at a reasonable cost and on a timely basis.

Liquidity risk involves the risk of being unable to fund assets with the appropriate duration and rate-based liabilities, as well as the risk of not being able to meet unexpected cash needs. Liquidity planning and management are necessary to ensure the ability to fund operations cost-effectively and to meet current and future potential obligations such as loan commitments, lease obligations, and unexpected deposit outflows. In this process, management focuses on both assets and liabilities and on the manner in which they combine to provide adequate liquidity to meet the Company’s needs.

Funds are available from a number of basic banking activity sources including the core deposit base, the repayment and maturity of loans, payments of principal and interest as well as sales of investments classified as available-for-sale, and sales of brokered deposits. As of September 30, 2015, $624,420 of the investment securities portfolio was classified as available-for-sale and is reported at fair value on the consolidated balance sheet. Another $132,134 of the portfolio was classified as held-to-maturity and is reported at amortized cost. Approximately $467,080 of the total $756,554 investment securities portfolio on hand at September 30, 2015, was pledged to secure public deposits and repurchase agreements. Other funding sources available include repurchase agreements, federal funds purchased, and borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank.

Effects of Inflation and Changing Prices

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without considering the change in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. Unlike most industrial companies, virtually all of the assets and liabilities of a financial institution are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates generally have a more significant impact on the performance of a financial institution than the effects of general levels of inflation. Although interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same extent as the prices of goods and services, increases in inflation generally have resulted in increased interest rates. In addition, inflation affects financial institutions’ increased cost of goods and services purchased, the cost of salaries and benefits, occupancy expense, and similar items. Inflation and related increases in interest rates generally decrease the market value of investments and loans held and may adversely affect liquidity, earnings, and shareholders’ equity. Commercial and other loan originations and refinancings tend to slow as interest rates increase, and can reduce the Company’s earnings from such activities.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company generally does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements other than approved and unfunded loans and lines and letters of credit to customers in the ordinary course of business. At September 30, 2015, the Company had commitments to make loans of $42,041, unused lines of credit of $371,643, and outstanding standby letters of credit of $10,595.

GAAP Reconciliation and Management Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Some of the financial data included in our selected historical consolidated financial information are not measures of financial performance recognized by GAAP. Our management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in its analysis of our performance:

• “Common shareholders’ equity” is defined as total shareholders’ equity at end of period less the liquidation preference value of the preferred stock;

• “Tangible common shareholders’ equity” is common shareholders’ equity less goodwill and other intangible assets;

• “Total tangible assets” is defined as total assets less goodwill and other intangible assets;

• “Other intangible assets” is defined as the sum of core deposit intangible and SBA servicing rights;

• “Tangible book value per share” is defined as tangible common shareholders’ equity divided by total common shares outstanding. This measure is important to investors interested in changes from period-to-period in book value per share exclusive of changes in intangible assets;

• “Tangible common shareholders’ equity ratio” is defined as the ratio of tangible common shareholders’ equity divided by total tangible assets. We believe that this measure is important to many investors in the marketplace who are interested in relative changes from period-to period in common equity and total assets, each exclusive of changes in intangible assets;

• “Return on Average Tangible Common Equity” is defined as net income available to common shareholders divided by average tangible common shareholders’ equity;

• “Efficiency ratio” is defined as noninterest expenses divided by our operating revenue, which is equal to net interest income plus noninterest income;

• “Adjusted yield on loans” is our yield on loans after excluding loan accretion from our acquired loan portfolio. Our management uses this metric to better assess the impact of purchase accounting on our yield on loans, as the effect of loan discount accretion is expected to decrease as the acquired loans mature or roll off of our balance sheet;

44

• “Net interest margin” is defined as annualized net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets for the period; and

• “Adjusted net interest margin” is net interest margin after excluding loan accretion from the acquired loan portfolio and premiums for acquired time deposits. Our management uses this metric to better assess the impact of purchase accounting on net interest margin, as the effect of loan discount accretion and accretion of net discounts and premiums related to deposits is expected to decrease as the acquired loans and deposits mature or roll off of our balance sheet.

We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to management and investors that is supplementary to our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows computed in accordance with GAAP; however, we acknowledge that our non-GAAP financial measures have a number of limitations. As such, you should not view these disclosures as a substitute for results determined in accordance with GAAP, and they are not necessarily comparable to non-GAAP financial measures that other companies use.

The following reconciliation table provides a more detailed analysis of these non-GAAP financial measures:

Emerging Growth Company Status

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to public companies that are not emerging growth companies, including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. In addition, even if the Company complies with the greater obligations of public companies that are not emerging growth companies, the Company may avail itself of the reduced requirements applicable to emerging growth companies from time to time in the future, so long as the Company is an emerging growth company. The Company will continue to be an emerging growth company until the earliest to occur of: (1) the end of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the effectiveness of the Company’s Form S-4 filed with the SEC on May 14, 2014 in connection with the Company’s acquisition of MidSouth, which registered the Company’s common stock issued in the acquisition of MidSouth under the Securities Act, and resulted in the Company becoming an SEC reporting company under Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”); (2) the last day of the fiscal year in which we have more than $1.0 billion in annual revenues; (3) the date on which we are deemed to be a “large accelerated filer” under the Exchange Act; or (4) the date on which we have, during the previous three-year period, issued publicly or privately, more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities. Management cannot predict if investors will find the Company’s common stock less attractive because it will rely on these exemptions. If some investors find the Company’s common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for its common stock and the Company’s stock price may be more volatile.

Further, the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such an election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, it adopts the new or revised standard at the time public companies adopt the new or revised standard. This election is irrevocable.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

The Company’s primary component of market risk is interest rate volatility. Fluctuations in interest rates will ultimately impact both the level of income and expense recorded on a large portion of the Company’s assets and liabilities, and the market value of all interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, other than those which possess a short term to maturity. Based upon the nature of the Company’s operations, the Company is not subject to foreign currency exchange or commodity price risk.

Management seeks to maintain profitability in both immediate and long-term earnings through funds management/interest rate risk management. Interest rate risk (sensitivity) management deals with the potential impact on earnings associated with changing interest rates using various rate change (shock) scenarios. The Company’s rate sensitivity position has an important impact on earnings. Senior management monitors the Company’s rate sensitivity position throughout each month, and then the Asset Liability Committee (“ALCO”) of the Bank meets on a quarterly basis to analyze the rate sensitivity position and other aspects of asset/liability management. These meetings cover the spread between the cost of funds (primarily time deposits) and interest yields generated primarily through loans and investments, rate shock analyses, liquidity and dependency positions, and other areas necessary for proper balance sheet management.

Management believes interest rate risk is best measured by earnings simulation modeling. The simulation is run using the prime rate as the base with the assumption of rates increasing 100, 200, 300 and 400 basis points or decreasing 100 and 200 basis points. All rates are increased or decreased parallel to the change in prime rate. As a result of the simulation, over a 12-month time period ended September 30, 2015, net interest income was estimated to increase 0.95% and 0.92% if rates were to increase 100 basis points and 200 basis points, respectively, and was estimated to decrease 4.72% and 18.17% in a 100 basis points and 200 basis points declining rate assumption, respectively. These results are in line with the Company’s guidelines for rate sensitivity.

47

The following chart reflects the Company’s sensitivity to changes in interest rates as indicated as of September 30, 2015.

Projected Interest Rate Change	Net Interest Income		Net Interest Income $ Change from Base		% Change from Base
-200		50,130		-11,134		-18.17	%
-100		58,374		-2,891		-4.72	%
Base		61,264		—		0.00	%
+100		61,846		581		0.95	%
+200		61,826		562		0.92	%
+300		62,020		756		1.23	%
+400		62,795		1,530		2.50	%

The preceding sensitivity analysis is a modeling analysis, which changes periodically and consists of hypothetical estimates based upon numerous assumptions including interest rate levels, changes in the shape of the yield curve, prepayments on loans and securities, rates on loans and deposits, reinvestments of pay downs and maturities of loans, investments and deposits, changes in spreads between key market rates, 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, the Company 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, these results do not include any management action that might be taken in responding to or anticipating changes in interest rates. The simulation results are one indicator of interest rate risk, and actual net interest income is largely impacted by the allocation of assets, liabilities, and product mix.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures” (as that term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of September 30, 2015, the end of the fiscal quarter covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, the chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

(b) Changes in Internal Controls. There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

Management is not aware of any material pending legal proceedings against the Company which, if determined adversely, the Company believes would have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

There have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 11, 2015 other than the additional disclosure of the risk factors listed below.

An active, liquid market for our common stock may not develop or be sustained, which may impair the ability of our shareholders to sell their shares.

Before the listing of our common stock on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) on March 26, 2015, our common stock had very little liquidity, with only limited trading of our common stock on the OTCQB of the OTC Markets Group. Even though our common stock is now listed on the NYSE under the symbol “FSB”, there is limited trading volume and an active, liquid trading market for our common stock may not develop or be sustained. A public trading market having the desired characteristics of depth, liquidity and orderliness depends upon the presence in the marketplace and independent decisions of willing buyers and sellers of our common stock, over which we have no control. If an active, liquid trading market for our common stock does not develop, shareholders may not be able to sell their shares at the volume, prices and times desired. Moreover, the lack of an established market could materially and adversely affect the value of our common stock. The market price of our common stock could decline significantly due to actual or anticipated issuances or sales of our common stock in the future.

48

Shares of our common stock are subject to dilution and the market price of our common stock could decline due to the number of outstanding shares of our common stock eligible for future sale.

Actual or anticipated issuances or sales of additional amounts of our common stock in the future could cause the market price of our common stock to decline significantly and make it more difficult for us to sell equity securities in the future at a time and on terms that we deem appropriate. The issuance of any shares of our common stock in the future also would dilute the percentage ownership interest held by shareholders prior to such issuance. As of September 30, 2015, we had 10,524,630 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. Of the outstanding shares of common stock, all of the 2,640,000 shares that were sold in our initial public offering are freely tradable, except that any shares purchased by “affiliates” (as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act), may be sold publicly only in compliance with certain limitations. In addition, 2,766,191 shares of our outstanding common stock were issued pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-4 in connection with the acquisition of MidSouth and are freely tradable. On October 28, 2015, we filed a registration statement on Form S-8 under the Securities Act to register an aggregate of 4,000,000 shares of our common stock for issuance under our 2007 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The remaining 1,118,439 outstanding shares of our common stock may be sold in the market over time in accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act or otherwise in future public offerings. Accordingly, the market price of our common stock could be adversely affected by actual or anticipated sales of a significant number of shares of our common stock in the future.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS.

Shares of the Company’s common stock were issued during the third quarter of 2015 pursuant to the exercise of warrants and options issued by the Company, as follows:

Date of Sale	Number of Shares of Common Stock Sold		Type of Issuance	Price Per Share		Aggregate Price
07/02/2015		200	Warrants Exercised	$	12.00	$	2,400.00

		703	Options Exercised	$	10.00	$	7,030.00
		3,673	Options Exercised	$	11.75	$	43,157.75
		1,257	Options Exercised	$	10.00	$	12,570.00
		1,805	Options Exercised	$	10.50	$	18,952.50
		2,985	Options Exercised	$	12.00	$	35,820.00
		752	Options Exercised	$	13.00	$	9,776.00
		782	Options Exercised	$	13.50	$	10,557.00
		634	Options Exercised	$	20.69	$	13,117.46
09/02/2015		185	Warrants Exercised	$	12.00	$	2,220.00
		150	Warrants Exercised	$	12.00	$	1,800.00
09/10/2015		125	Warrants Exercised	$	12.00	$	1,500.00

Neither the exercises of the warrants and options nor their original issuances involved any underwriters, underwriting discounts or commissions, or any public offering, and the Company believes that such transactions were exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act in reliance on Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act (or Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder) as transactions by an issuer not involving a public offering.

On July 1, 2014, acquired non-PCI loans were recorded at an estimated fair value of $178,818, comprised of contractually unpaid principal totaling $183,832 net of estimated discounts totaling $5,014 which included both credit and interest rate discount components. At September 30, 2015, acquired non-PCI loans were recorded at $104,853, comprised of contractually unpaid principal totaling $107,563 net of discounts totaling $2,710. Management evaluated these loans for credit deterioration since acquisition and determined that no allowance for loan losses was necessary at September 30, 2015.

Credit Quality Indicators: The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors. The Company analyzes loans individually by classifying the loans as to credit risk. This analysis includes non-homogeneous loans, such as commercial and commercial real estate loans as well as non-homogeneous residential real estate loans. This analysis is performed on a quarterly basis. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:

Special Mention. Loans classified as special mention have a potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or of the institution’s credit position at some future date.

Substandard. Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Loans not meeting the criteria above that are analyzed individually as part of the above described process are considered to be pass-rated loans. The following table includes PCI loans, which are included in the “Substandard” column. Based on the most recent analysis performed, the risk category of loans by class of loans is as follows as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014:

Purchased Credit-Impaired (“PCI”) Loans

Income is recognized on PCI loans pursuant to ASC Topic 310-30. A portion of the fair value discount has been recognized as an accretable yield that is accreted into interest income over the estimated remaining life of the loans. The remaining non-accretable difference represents cash flows not expected to be collected.

The table below summarizes the total contractually required principal and interest cash payments, management’s estimate of expected total cash payments and carrying value of the loans as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. Contractually required principal and interest payments have been adjusted for estimated prepayments.

	Sept 30, 2015			Dec 31, 2014
Contractually required principal and interest	$	5,872		$	6,532
Non-accretable difference		(307	)		(1,270	)
Cash flows expected to be collected		5,565			5,262

Carrying value of acquired loans		3,913			4,315
Allowance for loan losses		(5	)		—
Carrying value less allowance for loan losses	$	3,908		$	4,315

Management adjusted estimates of future expected losses, cash flows and renewal assumptions during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. These adjustments resulted in a decrease in expected cash flows and accretable yield, and a decrease in the non-accretable difference. The table below summarizes the changes in total contractually required principal and interest cash payments, management’s estimate of expected total cash payments and carrying value of the loans during the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015.

Unrealized losses on debt securities have not been recognized into income because the issuers bonds are of high credit quality (rated AA or higher), management does not intend to sell and it is likely that management will not be required to sell the securities prior to their anticipated recovery, and the decline in fair value is largely due to changes in interest rates and other market conditions. The fair value is expected to recover as the bonds approach maturity.

Regulatory Capital Matters

NOTE 7—REGULATORY CAPITAL MATTERS

In July 2013, the Federal Reserve Board and the FDIC approved final rules that substantially amended the regulatory risk-based capital rules applicable to the Company and Bank. The final rules implement the regulatory capital reforms of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision reflected in “Basel III: A Global Framework for More Resilient Banks and Banking Systems” (“Basel III”) and changes required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.

Under these rules, the leverage and risk-based capital ratios of financial holding companies may not be lower than the leverage and risk-based capital ratios for insured depository institutions. The final rules implementing the Basel III regulatory capital reforms became effective to the Company and Bank on January 1, 2015, and include new minimum risk-based capital and leverage ratios. Moreover, these rules refine the definition of what constitutes capital for purposes of calculating those ratios, including the definitions of Tier 1 capital and Tier 2 capital.

In addition to the new minimum capital level requirements, the rules also establish a “capital conservation buffer” of 2.5% (to be phased in over three years) above the new regulatory minimum risk-based capital ratios, and result in the following minimum ratios once the capital conservation buffer is fully phased in: (i) a common Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 7.0%, (ii) a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 8.5%, and (iii) a total risk-based capital ratio of 10.5%. The capital conservation buffer is to be phased in beginning in January 2016 at 0.625% of risk-weighted assets and will increase each year until fully implemented in January 2019. An institution will be subject to limitations on paying dividends, engaging in share repurchases, and paying discretionary bonuses if capital levels fall below minimum levels plus the buffer amounts. These limitations establish a maximum percentage of eligible retained income that could be utilized for such actions.

The final rules allow banks and their holding companies with less than $250 billion in assets a one-time opportunity to opt-out of a requirement to include unrealized gains and losses in accumulated other comprehensive income in their capital calculation. The Company has opted out of this requirement.

Management believes, as of September 30, 2015, that the Company and Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject and met the requirements to be considered well-capitalized. The Company’s and Bank’s actual capital amounts and ratios are presented in the following table (in thousands):

Dividend Restrictions: The Company’s principal source of funds for dividend payments is dividends received from the Bank. Banking regulations limit the amount of dividends that may be paid without prior approval of regulatory agencies. Under these regulations, the amount of dividends that may be paid in any calendar year is limited to the current year’s net profits, combined with the retained net profits of the preceding two years, subject to the capital requirements described above. During 2015, the Bank could declare, without prior approval, dividends of approximately $13,836 plus any 2015 net profits retained to the date of declaration.

Share-Based Payments

NOTE 6—SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS

In connection with the Company’s 2010 private offering, 32,425 warrants were issued to shareholders, one warrant for every twenty shares of common stock purchased. Each warrant allows the shareholders to purchase an additional share of common stock at $12.00 per share. The warrants were issued with an effective date of March 30, 2010 and will be exercisable in whole or in part up to seven years following the date of issuance. The warrants are detachable from the common stock. There were 4,970 warrants exercised during the nine months ended September 30, 2015, for which the Company received cash proceeds of $60. The exercised warrants had an aggregate intrinsic value of $46 at the date of exercise. No warrants were exercised during the nine months ended September 30, 2014. At September 30, 2015, there were 26,907 outstanding warrants associated with the 2010 offering.

Since the common stock of the Company has been registered under the Securities Act and has been traded on a national securities exchange at $15.00 or more for forty-five (45) consecutive days, the Company may redeem the 2010 warrants at any time with not less than thirty (30) days’ written notice to the holder of such 2010 warrant, in whole or in part, at a redemption price of $1.00 per warrant; provided, however, that the holder of the 2010 warrant may exercise the 2010 warrant, in whole or in part, during such thirty (30) day period.

Stock Option Plan: The Company’s 2007 Stock Option Plan (“stock option plan” or the “Plan”), which was shareholder-approved, permitted the grant of stock options to its employees, organizers and directors for up to 551,250 shares of common stock. The Plan was amended during April 2010 to increase the number of shares available for issuance to 1,000,000. In April 2013, the Plan was amended to offer additional forms of equity compensation, to change the Plan’s name to the Franklin Financial Network, Inc. 2007 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan, and to increase the number of authorized shares to 1,500,000. Shareholders approved amendments to the Company’s 2007 Stock Option Plan (“stock option plan” or the “Plan”) to increase the number of authorized shares to 2,000,000 in June 2014 and to 4,000,000 in February 2015. At September 30, 2015, there were 2,364,492 authorized shares available for issuance.

Employee, organizer and director awards are granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant; those option awards have a vesting period of 3 to 5 years and have a 10-year contractual term. The Company assigns discretion to its Board of Directors to make grants either as qualified incentive stock options or as non-qualified stock options. All employee grants are intended to be treated as qualified incentive stock options, if allowable. All other grants are expected to be treated as non-qualified.

On July 1, 2014, 322,300 MidSouth common stock options were converted into 137,280 options to purchase shares of FFN common stock with an exercise price of $8.57 per option pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement (see Note 2). Using the Black-Scholes option valuation model, the grant date fair value was estimated to be $6.31 per converted option based on the $14.50 fair value per share of FFN common stock at July 1, 2014. No compensation expense was required related to the converted options.

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 assumptions noted in the table below. Expected stock price volatility is based on historical volatilities of a peer group. The Company uses historical data to estimate option exercise and post-vesting termination behavior.

The expected term of options granted 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.

The fair value of options granted was determined using the following weighted-average assumptions as of grant date.

	September 30, 2015			September 30, 2014
Risk-free interest rate		1.84	%		1.81	%
Expected term		7.5 years			5.9 years
Expected stock price volatility		25.00	%		10.85	%
Dividend yield		0.22	%		0.23	%

The weighted average fair value of options granted for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 were $6.41 and $4.12, respectively.

A summary of the activity in the stock option plans for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 follows:

	Shares			Weighted Average Exercise Price		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term		Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Outstanding at beginning of year		1,210,660		$	11.32		6.53	$	7,244
Granted		226,782			20.78
Exercised		(93,754	)		11.53

Exercisable at period end		829,072		$	10.76		5.06	$	9,606

The Company received cash proceeds of $780 for the options exercised during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The exercised options had an aggregate intrinsic value of $839 at the date of exercise.

As of September 30, 2015, there was $1,733 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options granted under the Plan. The cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.7 years.

Restricted Share Award Plan: Additionally, the Company’s 2007 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan provides for the granting of restricted share awards and other performance related incentives. During 2014, the Company awarded 87,374 restricted common shares to employees of the Company. When the restricted shares are awarded, a participant receives voting and dividend rights with respect to the shares, but is not able to transfer the shares until the restrictions have lapsed. These awards have a vesting period of three to five years and vest in equal annual installments on the anniversary date of the grant.

A summary of activity for non-vested restricted share awards for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 is as follows:

Non-vested Shares	Shares			Weighted- Average Grant-Date Fair Value
Non-vested at beginning of year		102,710		$	13.93
Granted		31,938			20.69
Vested		(25,075	)		14.08
Forfeited		(3,709	)		15.99
Non-vested at period end		105,864		$	15.89

Compensation expense associated with the restricted share awards is recognized on a straight-line basis over the time period that the restrictions associated with the awards lapse based on the total cost of the award at the grant date. As of September 30, 2015, there was $1,524 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested shares granted under the Plan. The cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.5 years.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value

NOTE 8—FAIR VALUE

Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. 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 has the ability to 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 reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

The Company used the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate the fair value of each type of asset and liability:

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).

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

Impaired Loans: The fair value of impaired loans with specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses is generally 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. Appraisals for impaired loans are generally obtained annually but may be obtained more frequently based on changing circumstances as part of the aforementioned quarterly evaluation.

Foreclosed Assets: 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 which are updated no less frequently than annually. 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. Foreclosed assets are evaluated on a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly.

Loans Held For Sale: During 2014, the Company elected the fair value option for loans held for sale to align with other accounting policies related to mortgage banking, such as mortgage banking derivatives. These loans are typically sold to an investor following loan origination and the fair value of such accounts are readily available based on direct quotes from investors or similar transactions experienced in the secondary loan market. Fair value adjustments, as well as realized gains and losses are recorded in current earnings. Fair value is determined by market prices for similar transactions adjusted for specific attributes of that loan.

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:

The methods and assumptions not previously described used to estimate fair value are described as follows:

(a) Cash and Cash Equivalents: The carrying amounts of cash and short-term instruments approximate fair values and are classified as Level 1.

(b) Loans: Fair values of loans, excluding loans held for sale, are estimated as follows: For variable rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values resulting in a Level 3 classification. Fair values for other loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality resulting in a Level 3 classification. Impaired loans are valued at the lower of cost or fair value as described previously. The methods utilized to estimate the fair value of loans do not necessarily represent an exit price.

The fair value of loans held for sale is estimated based upon binding contracts and quotes from third party investors resulting in a Level 2 classification.

(c) Restricted Equity Securities: It is not practical to determine the fair value of Federal Home Loan Bank or Federal Reserve Bank stock due to restrictions placed on its transferability.

(d) Mortgage Servicing Rights: Fair value of mortgage servicing rights is based on valuation models that calculate the present value of estimated net cash flows based on industry market data. The valuation model incorporates assumptions that market participants would use in estimating future net cash flows resulting in a Level 2 classification.

(e) Deposits: The fair values disclosed for demand deposits (e.g., interest and non-interest checking, savings, and certain types of money market accounts) are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amount) resulting in a Level 1 classification. The carrying amounts of fixed-term money market accounts approximate their fair values at the reporting date resulting in a Level 1 classification. Fair values for certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flows calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits resulting in a Level 2 classification.

(f) Federal Funds Purchased and Repurchase Agreements: The carrying amounts of federal funds purchased, borrowings under repurchase agreements, and other short-term borrowings, generally maturing within ninety days, approximate their fair values resulting in a Level 2 classification.

(g) Federal Home Loan Bank Advances: The fair values of the Company’s long-term borrowings are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on the current borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements resulting in a Level 2 classification.

(h) Accrued Interest Receivable/Payable: The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate fair value resulting in a Level 1 or Level 2 classification based on the asset/liability that they are associated with.

(i) Off-balance Sheet Instruments: Fair values for off-balance sheet, credit-related financial instruments are based on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing. The fair value of commitments is not material.

Acquisitions

NOTE 2—ACQUISITIONS

Acquisition of MidSouth Bank

On July 1, 2014 the Company completed the acquisition of MidSouth Bank (“MidSouth”), pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization and Bank Merger (the “merger agreement”) dated November 19, 2013.

The acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. The Company recognized goodwill on this acquisition of $9,124, which is nondeductible for tax purposes as this acquisition was a nontaxable transaction. The goodwill was calculated based on the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date.

At September 30, 2015, there were no circumstances or significant changes that have occurred since July 1, 2014 related to the acquisition of MidSouth that, in management’s assessment, would necessitate recording impairment of goodwill.

In the acquisition, the Company purchased $184,345 of loans at fair value, net of $7,347, or 3.8%, estimated discount to the outstanding principal balance, representing 38.0% of the Company’s total loans at September 30, 2014. Of the total loans acquired, management identified loans totaling $5,527 as having credit deficiencies. All loans that were on non-accrual status and all loan relationships that were identified as substandard or impaired as of the acquisition date were considered by management to be credit-impaired and are accounted for pursuant to ASC Topic 310-30. The table below summarizes the total contractually required principal and interest cash payments, management’s estimate of expected total cash payments and fair value of the loans as of July 1, 2014 for purchased credit-impaired (“PCI”) loans. Contractually required principal and interest payments have been adjusted for estimated prepayments.

Contractually required principal and interest	$	8,510
Non-accretable difference		(1,745	)
Cash flows expected to be collected		6,765
Accretable yield		(1,238	)
Total purchased credit-impaired loans acquired	$	5,527

In its assumption of the deposit liabilities, the Company believed the deposits assumed from the acquisition had an intangible value. The Company applied ASC Topic 805, which prescribes the accounting for goodwill and other intangible assets such as core deposit intangibles, in a business combination. The Company determined the estimated fair value of the core deposit intangible asset totaled $3,060, which is being amortized utilizing an accelerated amortization method over an estimated economic life of 8.2 years. Through September 30, 2015, the Company has recorded amortization of core deposit intangibles totaling $861.

Pro forma information

Pro forma data for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014 listed in the table below presents pro forma information as if the MidSouth acquisition occurred at the beginning of 2014. Because the MidSouth transaction closed on July 1, 2014, and its actual results are included in the Company’s actual operating results for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2014 and 2015 and for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015, there is no pro forma information for those periods.

	Nine Months Ended Sept 30, 2014
Net interest income	$	31,619
Net income available to common shareholders		6,353
Earnings per share—basic	$	0.82
Earnings per share—diluted	$	0.80

Supplemental pro forma earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 were adjusted to exclude acquisition-related costs that were incurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 of $2,112. Supplemental pro forma earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 were adjusted to include discount accretion and premium amortization related to the fair value adjustments to acquisition date assets and liabilities, as appropriate.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the acquisition of MidSouth increased pro forma net interest income by approximately $6,049 and net income available to common shareholders by approximately $849.
