Business

Trustmark Corporation (Trustmark) is a bank holding company headquartered in Jackson, Mississippi.  Through its subsidiaries, Trustmark operates as a financial services organization providing banking and financial solutions to corporate institutions and individual customers through 193 offices in Alabama, Florida, Mississippi, Tennessee and Texas.

Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Trustmark and all other entities in which Trustmark has a controlling financial interest. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with these accounting principles requires Management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and income and expense during the reporting periods and the related disclosures.  Although Management’s estimates contemplate current conditions and how they are expected to change in the future, it is reasonably possible that in 2020 actual conditions could vary from those anticipated, which could affect Trustmark’s financial condition and results of operations.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Securities

Securities

Securities are classified as either held to maturity or available for sale.  Securities are classified as held to maturity and carried at amortized cost when Management has the positive intent and the ability to hold them until maturity.  Securities to be held for indefinite periods of time are classified as available for sale and carried at fair value, with the unrealized holding gains and losses reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax.  Securities available for sale are used as part of Trustmark’s interest rate risk management strategy and may be sold in response to changes in interest rates, changes in prepayment rates and other factors.  Management determines the appropriate classification of securities at the time of purchase.

The amortized cost of debt securities classified as securities held to maturity or securities available for sale is adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts to maturity of the security using the interest method.  Such amortization or accretion is included in interest on securities.  Realized gains and losses are determined using the specific identification method and are included in noninterest income as securities gains (losses), net.

Securities transferred from the available for sale category to the held to maturity category are recorded at fair value at the date of transfer.  Unrealized holding gains or losses associated with the transfer of securities from available for sale to held to maturity are included in the balance of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax, in the consolidated balance sheets.  These unrealized holding gains or losses are amortized over the remaining life of the security as a yield adjustment in a manner consistent with the amortization or accretion of the original purchase premium or discount on the associated security.

Trustmark reviews securities for impairment quarterly.  Declines in the fair value of held to maturity and available for sale securities below their cost that are deemed to be other than temporary are reflected in earnings as realized losses to the extent the impairment is related to credit losses.  The amount of the impairment related to other factors is recognized as a component of other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax. In estimating other-than-temporary impairment losses, Management considers, among other things, the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer and Trustmark’s intent and ability to hold the security for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.

Loans Held for Sale (LHFS)

Loans Held for Sale (LHFS)

Primarily, all mortgage loans purchased from wholesale customers or originated in Trustmark’s General Banking Segment are considered to be held for sale.  In certain circumstances, Trustmark will retain a mortgage loan in its portfolio based on banking relationships or certain investment strategies.  Trustmark has elected to account for its LHFS under the fair value option permitted by Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 825, “Financial Instruments,” with interest income on the LHFS reported in interest and fees on LHFS and LHFI.  Trustmark reports unrealized gains and losses resulting from changes in the fair value of the LHFS accounted for under the fair value option as noninterest income in mortgage banking, net.  LHFS are actively managed and monitored and certain market risks of the loans may be mitigated through the use of derivatives.  These derivative instruments are carried at fair value with changes in the fair value reported as noninterest income in mortgage banking, net.  Changes in the fair value of the LHFS are largely offset by changes in the fair value of the derivative instruments.  Election of the fair value option allows Trustmark to reduce the accounting volatility that would otherwise result from the asymmetry

created by accounting for its LHFS at the lower of cost or fair value and the derivative instruments at fair value.  Realized gains and losses upon ultimate sale of the loans are reported as noninterest income in mortgage banking, net.

Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA) optional repurchase programs allow financial institutions to buy back individual delinquent mortgage loans that meet certain criteria from the securitized loan pool for which the institution provides servicing.  At the servicer’s option and without GNMA’s prior authorization, the servicer may repurchase such a delinquent loan for an amount equal to 100 percent of the remaining principal balance of the loan.  Under FASB ASC Topic 860, “Transfers and Servicing,” this buy-back option is considered a conditional option until the delinquency criteria are met, at which time the option becomes unconditional.  When Trustmark is deemed to have regained effective control over these loans under the unconditional buy-back option, the loans can no longer be reported as sold and must be brought back onto the balance sheet as LHFS, regardless of whether Trustmark intends to exercise the buy-back option.  These loans are reported as LHFS with the offsetting liability being reported as short-term borrowings.  The fair value option election does not apply to the GNMA optional repurchase loans which do not meet the requirements under FASB ASC Topic 825 to be accounted for under the fair value option.

Trustmark defers the upfront loan fees and costs related to the LHFS.  In general, the LHFS are only retained on Trustmark’s balance sheet for 30 to 45 days before they are pooled and sold in the secondary market.  The difference between deferring these loan fees and costs until the loans are sold and recognizing them in earnings as incurred as required by FASB ASC Subtopic 825-10 is considered immaterial.  Deferred loan fees and costs are reflected in the basis of the LHFS and, as such, impact the resulting gain or loss when the loans are sold.

Loans Held for Investment (LHFI)

Loans Held for Investment (LHFI)

LHFI are stated at the amount of unpaid principal, adjusted for the net amount of direct costs and nonrefundable loan fees associated with lending.  The net amount of nonrefundable loan origination fees and direct costs associated with the lending process, including commitment fees, is deferred and accreted to interest income over the lives of the loans using a method that approximates the interest method.  Interest on LHFI is accrued and recorded as interest income based on the outstanding principal balance.

Past due LHFI are loans contractually past due 30 days or more as to principal or interest payments.  A LHFI is classified as nonaccrual, and the accrual of interest on such loan is discontinued, when the contractual payment of principal or interest becomes 90 days past due on commercial credits and 120 days past due on non-business purpose credits.  In addition, a credit may be placed on nonaccrual at any other time Management has serious doubts about further collectibility of principal or interest according to the contractual terms, even though the loan is currently performing.  A LHFI may remain in accrual status if it is in the process of collection and well secured.  When a LHFI is placed in nonaccrual status, interest accrued but not received is reversed against interest income.  Interest payments received on nonaccrual LHFI are applied against principal under the cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual status.  Under the cost-recovery method, interest income is not recognized until the principal balance is reduced to zero.  LHFI are restored to accrual status when the obligation is brought current or has performed in accordance with the contractual terms for a reasonable period of time and the ultimate collectibility of the total contractual principal and interest is no longer in doubt.

A LHFI is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that Trustmark will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement.  In accordance with FASB ASC Subtopic 310-40-35, “Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors: Subsequent Measurement,” all loans restructured in a troubled debt restructuring (TDR), without regard to a loan’s accrual status, are impaired loans.  Additionally, Trustmark specifically reviews all commercial nonaccrual relationships of $500 thousand or more for impairment.  Trustmark considers all commercial nonaccrual relationships of $500 thousand or more, which have been specifically reviewed for impairment and deemed impaired, and all LHFI classified as TDRs to be individually evaluated impaired LHFI.  At the time a LHFI that has been specifically reviewed for impairment is deemed to be impaired, the full difference between book value and the most likely estimate of the collateral’s net realizable value is charged off or a specific reserve is established.  As subsequent events dictate and estimated net realizable values change, further adjustments may be necessary.  Commercial nonaccrual relationships under $500 thousand are not specifically reviewed for impairment due to the insignificant number and dollar amount of these types of loans.  Nonaccrual LHFI includes both individually evaluated impaired LHFI as well as smaller balance homogeneous loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment.  Consistent with the policy for nonaccrual LHFI, interest payments on impaired LHFI, with the exception of TDRs in accrual status, are applied to principal.  Impaired LHFI, or portions thereof, are charged off when deemed uncollectible.

Troubled Debt Restructuring

A TDR occurs when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulties, and for related economic or legal reasons, a concession is granted to the borrower that Trustmark would not otherwise consider.  Whatever the form of concession that might be granted by Trustmark, Management’s objective is to enhance collectibility by obtaining more cash or other value from the borrower or by increasing the probability of receipt by granting the concession than by not granting it.  Other concessions may arise from court

proceedings or may be imposed by law.  In addition, TDRs also include those credits that are extended or renewed to a borrower who is not able to obtain funds from sources other than Trustmark at a market interest rate for new debt with similar risk.

A formal TDR may include, but is not necessarily limited to, one or a combination of the following situations:

 

Trustmark accepts a third-party receivable or other asset(s) of the borrower, in lieu of the receivable from the borrower.

 

Trustmark accepts an equity interest in the borrower in lieu of the receivable.

 

Trustmark accepts modification of the terms of the debt including but not limited to:

 

o

Reduction (absolute or contingent) of the stated interest rate to below the current market rate.

 

o

Extension of the maturity date or dates at a stated interest rate lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk.

 

o

Reduction (absolute or contingent) of the face amount or maturity amount of the debt as stated in the note or other agreement.

 

o

Reduction (absolute or contingent) of accrued interest.

Troubled debt restructurings are addressed in Trustmark’s loan policy, and in accordance with that policy, any modifications or concessions that may result in a TDR are subject to a special approval process which allows for control, identification, and monitoring of these arrangements.  Prior to granting a concession, a revised borrowing arrangement is proposed which is structured so as to improve collectability of the loan in accordance with a reasonable repayment schedule with any loss promptly identified.  It is supported by a thorough evaluation of the borrower’s financial condition and prospects for repayment under those revised terms.  Other TDRs arising from renewals or extensions of existing debt are routinely identified through the processes utilized in the Problem Loan Committee and in the Credit Quality Review Committee.  TDRs are subsequently reported to the Directors’ Credit Policy Committee on a quarterly basis and are disclosed in Trustmark’s consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP and regulatory reporting guidance.

All loans whose terms have been modified in a troubled debt restructuring are evaluated for impairment under FASB ASC Topic 310, “Receivables.” Accordingly, Trustmark measures any loss on the restructuring in accordance with that guidance.  A TDR in which Trustmark receives physical possession of the borrower’s assets, regardless of whether formal foreclosure or repossession proceedings take place, is accounted for in accordance with FASB ASC Subtopic 310-40.  Thus, the loan is treated as if assets have been received in satisfaction of the loan and reported as a foreclosed asset.  

A TDR may be returned to accrual status if Trustmark is reasonably assured of repayment of principal and interest under the modified terms and the borrower has demonstrated sustained performance under those terms for a period of at least six months.  Otherwise, the restructured loan must remain on nonaccrual.

Allowance for Loan Losses, LHFI

Allowance for Loan Losses, LHFI

The allowance for loan losses, LHFI is established through provisions for estimated loan losses charged against net income.  The allowance account is maintained at a level which is believed to be adequate by Management based on estimated probable losses within the LHFI portfolio.  Evaluations of the portfolio and individual credits are inherently subjective, as they require estimates, assumptions and judgments as to the facts and circumstances of particular situations.  Some of the factors considered, such as amounts and timing of future cash flows expected to be received, may be susceptible to significant change.

Trustmark’s allowance methodology is based on guidance provided in Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 102, “Selected Loan Loss Allowance Methodology and Documentation Issues,” as well as other regulatory guidance.  The allowance for loan losses, LHFI consists of three components: (i) a historical valuation allowance determined in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 450, “Contingencies,” based on historical loan loss experience for LHFI with similar characteristics and trends, (ii) a specific valuation allowance determined in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 310 based on probable losses on specific LHFI and (iii) a qualitative risk valuation allowance determined in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 450 based on general economic conditions and other specific internal and external qualitative risk factors.  Each of these components calls for estimates, assumptions and judgments as described below.

Historical Valuation Allowance

The historical valuation allowance is derived by application of a historical net loss percentage to the outstanding balances of LHFI contained in designated pools and risk rating categories.  Pools are established by grouping credits that display similar characteristics

and trends such as commercial LHFI for working capital purposes and non-working capital purposes, commercial purpose LHFI secured by real estate (which are further segregated into 1-4 family construction, non 1-4 family construction, land, lots and development, owner-occupied and nonowner-occupied categories), other commercial loans, 1-4 family LHFI, 1-4 family LHFI secured by junior liens and other consumer LHFI.  Within these pools, LHFI are further segregated based on Trustmark’s internal credit risk rating process that evaluates, among other things: the obligor’s ability and willingness to pay, the value of underlying collateral, the ability of guarantors to meet their payment obligations, management experience and effectiveness, and the economic environment and industry in which the borrower operates.  The historical net loss percentages, calculated on a quarterly basis, are proportionally distributed to each risk rate within loan groups based upon degree of risk.  Using third-party default data, which is updated annually to incorporate the most recent year’s information, average cumulative issuer-weighted global default rates by alphanumeric rating are aggregated by Trustmark’s commercial loan risk rates.  Management uses the long-term default rates to measure the relative risk across the risk rates while the 12-quarter quantitative loss rate sets the absolute level of allowance for loan loss reserve.  Further, given the volatility in the default data, the longer look-back period provides for a more stable allowance for loan loss estimate which better reflects the incremental risk across the risk rates.

The historical net loss percentages are calculated using a 12 quarter look-back period, which is the period that best reflects losses inherent in the current loan portfolio.  The look-back period sufficiently captures the volatility in net charge-off rates from quarter to quarter and affects the qualitative adjustments that are required to capture the differences in conditions between the current period and those that were prevailing during the look-back period.

The loss emergence period (LEP) refers to the period of time between the events that trigger a loss and charge-off of that loss.  Losses are usually not immediately known and determining the loss event can be difficult.  It takes time for the borrower and extent of loss to be identified and determined.  Management may not be aware that the loss event has occurred until the borrower exhibits the inability to pay or other evidence of credit deterioration.  The LEP is evaluated annually to incorporate the most recent year’s data and adjusted as necessary.

Loans-Specific Valuation Allowance

Once a LHFI is classified, it is subject to periodic review to determine whether or not the loan is impaired.  If determined to be impaired, the loan is evaluated using one of the valuation criteria contained in FASB ASC Topic 310 (i.e., individually or collectively evaluated), and a specific valuation allowance is allocated, if necessary, so that the loan is reported at the net realizable value.

Qualitative Risk Valuation Allowance

The qualitative risk valuation allowance is based on general economic conditions and other internal and external factors affecting Trustmark as a whole as well as specific LHFI.  Factors considered include the following within Trustmark’s five key market regions:  the experience, ability, and effectiveness of Trustmark’s lending management and staff; adherence to Trustmark’s loans policies, procedures and internal controls; the volume of exceptions relating to collateral, underwriting and financial documentation; credit concentrations; recent performance trends; regional economic trends; the impact of recent acquisitions; and the impact of significant natural disasters.  These factors are evaluated on a quarterly basis with the results representing Trustmark’s qualitative risk profile in the current period which is used to establish an appropriate allowance.  The qualitative portion of the commercial and consumer LHFI allowance for loan loss methodology also incorporates the use of maximum observed gross historical losses observed through the last economic cycle as a way to calculate a maximum qualitative reserve limit.  The maximum observed gross historical losses as a percentage of the loan balances results in a maximum observed gross historical loss rate.  Once the quantitative component of the allowance for loan loss methodology is calculated, the quantitative reserve percentage is deducted from the maximum observed gross historical loss rate to determine the maximum possible qualitative reserve limit.  Management uses its qualitative factor evaluation process in conjunction with this maximum to determine the appropriate estimate of the qualitative considerations not captured by Trustmark’s historical loss rates.

Other factors included in the qualitative risk valuation allowance include consideration of: commercial loan facility risk that embodies the nature, frequency and duration of the repayment structure as it pertains to the actual source of loan repayment, commercial nonaccrual relationships under $500 thousand which are below the threshold to perform a specific impairment analysis, and independent consumer credit bureau scores that are monitored to identify shifts in risk that are represented in the retail portfolio.  These factors are also evaluated on a quarterly basis with the exception of the commercial nonaccrual relationships under $500 thousand which are evaluated monthly.

Commercial purpose LHFI are charged off when a determination is made that the loan is uncollectible and continuance as a bankable asset is not warranted.  Consumer LHFI secured by 1-4 family residential real estate are generally charged off or written down to the fair value of the collateral less cost to sell at no later than 180 days of delinquency.  Non-real estate consumer purpose LHFI, including both secured and unsecured loans, are generally charged off by 120 days of delinquency.  Consumer revolving lines of credit and credit card debt are generally charged off on or prior to 180 days of delinquency.  LHFI are charged off against the allowance for loan losses, LHFI, with any subsequent recoveries credited back to the allowance account.
Acquired Loans

Acquired Loans

Acquired loans are accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting.  The acquired loans are recorded at their estimated fair value at the time of acquisition.  The fair value of acquired loans is determined using a discounted cash flow model based on assumptions regarding the amount and timing of principal and interest payments, estimated prepayments, estimated default rates, estimated loss severity in the event of defaults and current market rates.  Estimated credit losses are included in the determination of fair value; therefore, an allowance for loan losses is not recorded on the acquisition date.

Trustmark accounts for acquired impaired loans under FASB ASC Subtopic 310-30, “Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality.”  An acquired loan is considered impaired when there is evidence of credit deterioration since origination and it is probable at the date of acquisition that Trustmark would be unable to collect all contractually required payments.  Acquired loans accounted for under FASB ASC Subtopic 310-30 are referred to as “acquired impaired loans.”  Revolving credit agreements, such as home equity lines, and commercial leases are excluded from acquired impaired loan accounting requirements.

For acquired impaired loans, Trustmark (i) calculates the contractual amount and timing of undiscounted principal and interest payments (the “undiscounted contractual cash flows”) and (ii) estimates the amount and timing of undiscounted expected principal and interest payments (the “undiscounted expected cash flows”). Under FASB ASC Subtopic 310-30, the difference between the undiscounted contractual cash flows and the undiscounted expected cash flows is the nonaccretable difference.  The nonaccretable difference represents an estimate of the loss exposure of principal and interest related to the acquired impaired loan portfolio, and such amount is subject to change over time based on the performance of such loans.  The excess of undiscounted expected cash flows at acquisition over the initial fair value of acquired impaired loans is referred to as the “accretable yield” and is recorded as interest income over the estimated life of the loans using the effective yield method if the timing and amount of the future cash flows is reasonably estimable.  Under the effective yield method, the accretable yield is recorded as an accretion of interest income over the life of the loan.

Trustmark aggregates certain acquired impaired loans into pools of loans with common credit risk characteristics such as loan type and risk rating.  To establish accounting pools of acquired impaired loans, loans are first categorized by similar purpose, collateral and geographic region.  Within each category, the acquired impaired loans are further segmented by ranges of risk determinants observed at the time of acquisition.  For commercial loans, the primary risk determinant is the risk rating as assigned by Trustmark.  For consumer loans, the risk determinants include delinquency, delinquency history and FICO scores.  Statistical comparison of the pools reflect that each pool is comprised of acquired impaired loans generally of similar characteristics, including loan type, loan risk and weighted average life.  Each pool is then reviewed for similarity of the pool constituents, including standard deviation of purchase price, weighted average life and concentration of the largest loans.  Loan pools are initially booked at the aggregate fair value of the loan pool constituents, based on the present value of Trustmark's expected cash flows from the acquired impaired loans.  An acquired impaired loan is removed from a pool of loans only if the loan is sold, foreclosed, payment is received in full satisfaction of the loan or the loan is fully charged off.  The acquired impaired loan is removed from the pool at the carrying value.  When an individual acquired impaired loan is removed from a pool of loans, the difference between its relative carrying amount and the cash, collateral (measured at fair value) or other assets received will be recognized as a gain or loss immediately in interest income on acquired loans and would not affect the effective yield used to recognize the accretable yield on the remaining pool.  Certain acquired impaired loans are not pooled and are accounted for individually.  Such acquired impaired loans are withheld from pools due to the inherent uncertainty of the timing and amount of their cash flows or because they are not a suitable similar constituent to the established pools.

As required by FASB ASC Subtopic 310-30, Trustmark periodically re-estimates the expected cash flows to be collected over the life of the acquired impaired loans.  If, based on current information and events, it is probable that Trustmark will be unable to collect all cash flows expected at acquisition plus additional cash flows expected to be collected arising from changes in estimate after acquisition, the acquired loans are considered impaired.  The decrease in the expected cash flows reduces the carrying value of the acquired impaired loans as well as the accretable yield and results in a charge-off through the allowance for loan losses, acquired loans or the establishment of an allowance for loan losses, acquired loans with a charge to income through the provision for loan losses, acquired loans.  If, based on current information and events, it is probable that there is a significant increase in the cash flows previously expected to be collected or if actual cash flows are significantly greater than cash flows previously expected, Trustmark will reduce any remaining allowance for loan losses, acquired loans established on the acquired impaired loans for the increase in the present value of cash flows expected to be collected.  The increase in the expected cash flows for the acquired impaired loans over those originally estimated at acquisition increases the carrying value of the acquired impaired loans as well as the accretable yield.  The increase in the accretable yield is recognized as interest income prospectively over the remaining life of the acquired impaired loans.  The carrying value of acquired impaired loans is reduced by payments received, both principal and interest, and increased by the portion of the accretable yield recognized as interest income.

Under FASB ASC Subtopic 310-30, acquired impaired loans are generally considered accruing and performing loans as the loans accrete interest income over the estimated life of the loan when expected cash flows are reasonably estimable.  Accordingly, acquired impaired loans that are contractually past due are still considered to be accruing and performing loans as long as the estimated cash flows are received as expected.  If the timing and amount of cash flows is not reasonably estimable, the loans may be classified as nonaccrual loans and interest income may be recognized on a cash basis or as a reduction of the principal amount outstanding.

Premises and Equipment, Net

Premises and Equipment, Net

Premises and equipment are reported at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization.  Depreciation is charged to expense over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which are up to thirty-nine years for buildings and three to ten years for furniture and equipment.  Leasehold improvements are amortized over the terms of the respective leases or the estimated useful lives of the improvements, whichever is shorter.  In cases where Trustmark has the right to renew the lease for additional periods, the lease term for the purpose of calculating amortization of the capitalized cost of the leasehold improvements is extended when Trustmark is “reasonably assured” that it will renew the lease.  Depreciation and amortization expenses are computed using the straight-line method.  Trustmark continually evaluates whether events and circumstances have occurred that indicate that such long-lived assets have become impaired.  Measurement of any impairment of such long-lived assets is based on the fair values of those assets.  

Branch closures and purchased land held for future branch expansion for more than five years are evaluated to determine if the related land, buildings and building improvements should be transferred to assets held for sale in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment.”  The property is transferred to assets held for sale at the lower of its carrying value or fair value less cost to sell.  An impairment loss is recorded at the time of transfer if the carrying value of the assets exceeds the fair value.  Impairment losses are recorded as non-interest expense in other expense.

Mortgage Servicing Rights (MSR)

Mortgage Servicing Rights (MSR)

Trustmark recognizes as assets the rights to service mortgage loans based on the estimated fair value of the MSR when loans are sold and the associated servicing rights are retained.  Trustmark has elected to account for the MSR at fair value.

The fair value of the MSR is determined using discounted cash flow techniques benchmarked against third-party valuations.  Estimates of fair value involve several assumptions, including the key valuation assumptions about market expectations of future prepayment rates, interest rates and discount rates which are provided by a third-party firm.  Prepayment rates are projected using an industry standard prepayment model.  The model considers other key factors, such as a wide range of standard industry assumptions tied to specific portfolio characteristics such as remittance cycles, escrow payment requirements, geographic factors, foreclosure loss exposure, VA no-bid exposure, delinquency rates and cost of servicing, including base cost and cost to service delinquent mortgages.  Prevailing market conditions at the time of analysis are factored into the accumulation of assumptions and determination of servicing value.

Trustmark economically hedges changes in the fair value of the MSR attributable to interest rates.  See Note 1 – Significant Accounting Policies, “Derivative Financial Instruments – Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments” for information regarding these derivative instruments.

Trustmark receives annual servicing fee income for loans serviced, which is recorded as noninterest income in mortgage banking, net.  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.  Late fees and ancillary fees related to loan servicing are not considered material.

Goodwill and Identifiable Intangible Assets

Goodwill and Identifiable Intangible Assets

Trustmark accounts for goodwill and other intangible assets in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 350, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other.”  Goodwill, which represents the excess of cost over the fair value of the net assets of an acquired business, is not amortized but tested for impairment on an annual basis, which is October 1 for Trustmark, or more often if events or circumstances indicate that there may be impairment.

Identifiable intangible assets are acquired assets that lack physical substance but can be distinguished from goodwill because of contractual or legal rights or because the assets are capable of being sold or exchanged either on their own or in combination with a related contract, asset or liability.  Trustmark’s identifiable intangible assets primarily relate to core deposits, insurance customer relationships and borrower relationships.  These intangibles, which have definite useful lives, are amortized on an accelerated basis over their estimated useful lives.  In addition, these intangibles are evaluated for impairment whenever events and changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount should be reevaluated.  Trustmark also purchased banking charters in order to facilitate its entry into the states of Florida and Texas.  These identifiable intangible assets are being amortized on a straight-line method over 20 years.

Other Real Estate

Other Real Estate

Other real estate includes assets that have been acquired in satisfaction of debt through foreclosure and is carried at the lower of cost or estimated fair value.  Fair value is based on independent appraisals and other relevant factors.  Valuation adjustments required at foreclosure are charged to the allowance for loan losses.  Other real estate is revalued on an annual basis or more often if market conditions necessitate.  An other real estate specific reserve may be recorded through other real estate expense for declines in fair value subsequent to foreclosure based on recent appraisals or changes in market conditions.  Subsequent to foreclosure, losses on the periodic revaluation of the property are charged against an existing other real estate specific reserve or as noninterest expense in other real estate expense if a reserve does not exist.  Costs of operating and maintaining the properties as well as gains or losses on their disposition are also included in other real estate expense as incurred.  Improvements made to properties are capitalized if the expenditures are expected to be recovered upon the sale of the properties.

Leases

Leases

ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842),” became effective for Trustmark on January 1, 2019.  Trustmark adopted FASB ASC Topic 842 utilizing the modified-retrospective transition approach prescribed by ASU 2018-11, “Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements”. Trustmark did not elect to adopt the package of practical expedients, which includes reassessing whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, reassessing the lease classification and reassessing initial direct costs.  Also, Trustmark did not elect to adopt the hindsight practical expedient therefore maintaining the lease terms previously determined under FASB ASC Topic 840, “Leases”.  Trustmark made an accounting policy election to not recognize short-term leases (12 months or less) on the balance sheet.  Trustmark accounts for the lease and nonlease components separately as such amounts are readily determinable.  

Once Trustmark identifies and determines certain contracts are leases according to FASB ASC Topic 842, Trustmark classifies it as an operating or a finance lease and recognizes a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date.  The lease liability represents the present value of the lease payments that remain unpaid as of the commencement date and the right-of-use asset is the initial lease liability recognized for the lease plus any lease payments made to the lessor at or before the commencement date as well as any initial direct costs less any lease incentives received.  

Trustmark’s finance leases consist of building and equipment leases.  Trustmark recognizes interest expense based on the discount rate of the lease as interest expense in other interest expense and recognizes depreciation expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term as noninterest expense in net occupancy – premises for building leases and in equipment expense for equipment leases.  Trustmark amortizes the right-of-use asset over the life of the lease term on a straight-line basis.  Trustmark’s lease liabilities are measured as the present value of the remaining lease payments throughout the lease term.  Trustmark records its finance lease right-of-use assets in premises and equipment, net and its finance lease liabilities in other borrowings.  

Trustmark’s operating leases primarily consist of building and land leases.   Trustmark recognizes lease rent expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease contract and records it as noninterest expense in net occupancy – premises for building and land leases and in equipment expense for equipment leases.  Trustmark’s amortization of the right-of-use asset is the difference between the straight-line lease expense and the interest expense recognized on the lease liability during the period.  Trustmark’s lease liabilities are measured as the present value of the remaining lease payments throughout the lease term.

Trustmark’s leases typically have one or more renewal options included in the lease contract.  Due to the nature of Trustmark’s leases, for leases with renewal options available, Trustmark considers the first renewal option as reasonably certain to renew and is therefore included in the measurement of the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities.  

In order to calculate its right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, FASB ASC Topic 842 requires Trustmark to use the rate of interest implicit in the lease when readily determinable.  If the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable, Trustmark is required to use its incremental borrowing rate, which is the rate of interest Trustmark would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term in a similar economic environment.  Trustmark was able to determine the implicit interest rate for its equipment leases and used that rate as its discount rate.  Since the implicit interest rate for most of its building and land leases were not readily determinable, Trustmark used its incremental borrowing rate.  

Trustmark’s short-term leases primarily include automated teller machines.  For short-term leases, Trustmark recognizes lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.  As previously stated, Trustmark has elected not to include short-term leases on its balance sheet.

Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) and Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta Stock

Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) and Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta Stock

Trustmark accounts for its investments in FHLB and Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta stock in accordance with FASB ASC Subtopic 942-325, “Financial Services-Depository and Lending-Investments-Other.”  FHLB and Federal Reserve Bank stock are equity

securities that do not have a readily determinable fair value because its ownership is restricted and it lacks a market.  FHLB and Federal Reserve Bank stock are carried at cost and evaluated for impairment.  Trustmark’s investment in member bank stock is included in other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.  At December 31, 2019 and 2018, Trustmark’s investment in member bank stock totaled $31.9 million and $32.2 million, respectively.  The carrying value of Trustmark’s member bank stock gave rise to no other-than-temporary impairment for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Trustmark accounts for revenue from contracts with customers in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” which provides that revenue be recognized in a manner that depicts the transfer of goods or services to a customer in an amount that reflects the consideration Trustmark expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.  Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized either over time in a manner that depicts Trustmark’s performance, or at a point in time when control of the goods or services are transferred to the customer.  Trustmark’s noninterest income, excluding all of mortgage banking, net and securities gains (losses), net and portions of bank card and other fees and other income, are considered within the scope of FASB ASC Topic 606.  Gains or losses on the sale of other real estate, which are included in Trustmark’s noninterest expense as other real estate expense, are also within the scope of FASB ASC Topic 606.

General Banking Segment

Service Charges on Deposit Accounts

In general, deposit accounts represent contracts with customers with no fixed duration and can be terminated or modified by either party at any time without compensation to the other party.  According to FASB ASC Topic 606, a contract that can be terminated by either party without compensation does not exist for periods beyond the then-current period.  Therefore, deposit contracts are considered to renew day-to-day if not minute-to-minute.

Deposit contracts have a single continuous or stand-ready service obligation whereby Trustmark makes customer funds available for use by the customer as and when the customer chooses as well as other services such as statement rendering and online banking.  The specific services provided vary based on the type of deposit account.  These services are not individually distinct, but are distinct as a group, and therefore, constitute a single performance obligation which is satisfied over time and qualifies as a series of distinct service periods.

Trustmark receives a fixed service charge amount as consideration monthly for services rendered.  The service charge amount varies based on the type of deposit account.  Some of the service charge revenue is subject to refund provisions, which is variable consideration under the guidelines of FASB ASC Topic 606.  Trustmark has elected the ‘as-invoiced’ practical expedient permitted under FASB ASC Topic 606 for recognition of service charge revenue.  Therefore, revenue is recognized at the time and in the amount the customer is charged.  The service charge revenue is presented net of refunded amounts on Trustmark’s consolidated statements of income.

Services related to non-sufficient funds, overdrafts, excess account activity, stop payments, dormant accounts, etc. are considered optional purchases for a deposit contract because there is no performance obligation for Trustmark until the service is requested by the customer or the occurrence of a triggering event.  Fees for these services are fixed amounts and are charged to the customer when the service is performed.  Revenue is recognized at the time the customer is charged.

Bank Card and Other Fees

Revenue from contracts with customers in bank card and other fees includes income related to interchange fees and various other contracts which primarily consists of contracts with a single performance obligation that is satisfied at a point in time.  Trustmark receives a fixed consideration amount once the performance obligation is completed for these contracts.  Trustmark reports revenue from these contracts net of amounts refunded or due to a third party.

As both a debit and credit card issuer, Trustmark receives an interchange fee for every card transaction completed by its customers with a merchant.  Trustmark receives two types of interchange fees: point-of-sale transactions in which the customer must enter the PIN associated with the card to complete the transaction (a debit card transaction), and signature transactions in which the signature of the customer is required to complete the transaction (a credit card transaction).

Trustmark, as the card issuing or settlement bank, has a contract (implied based on customary business practices) with the payment network in which Trustmark has a single continuous service obligation to make funds available for settlement of the card transaction.  Trustmark’s service obligation is satisfied over time and qualifies as a series of distinct service periods.  Trustmark receives interchange fees as consideration for services rendered in the amount established by the respective payment network.  The interchange

fees are established by the payment network based on the type of transaction and is posted on their website.  Trustmark receives and records interchange fee revenue from the payment networks daily net of all fees and amounts due to the payment network.

Other Income

Revenue from contracts with customers in other income includes income related to cash management services and other contracts with a single performance obligation that is satisfied at a point in time.  Trustmark receives a fixed consideration amount once the performance obligation is completed for these contracts.  Trustmark reports revenue from these contracts net of amounts refunded or due to a third party.

Trustmark provides cash management services through the delivery of various products and services offered to its business and municipal customers including various departments of state, city and local governments, universities and other non-profit entities.  Similar to the deposit account contracts, the cash management contracts primarily represent contracts with customers with no fixed duration and can be terminated or modified by either party at any time without compensation to the other party.  Therefore, cash management contracts are generally considered to renew day-to-day if not minute-to-minute.  

Cash management contracts have a single continuous or stand-ready service obligation whereby Trustmark makes a specific service or group of services available for use by the customer as and when the customer chooses.  The specific services provided vary based on the type of account or product.  These services are not individually distinct, but are distinct as a group, and therefore, constitute a single performance obligation which is satisfied over time and qualifies as a series of distinct service periods.

Trustmark receives a set service charge or maintenance fee amount as consideration monthly for services rendered.  However, some of the fees are based on the number of transactions that occur (i.e. flat fee for a set number of transactions per month then an additional charge for each transaction after that) or the average daily account balance maintained by the customer during the month and a small amount of the cash management fee revenue is subject to refund provisions.  These fees represent variable consideration under the guidelines of FASB ASC Topic 606.  Trustmark has elected the ‘as-invoiced’ practical expedient permitted under FASB ASC Topic 606 for recognition of cash management fee revenue.  The cash management revenue is presented net of any refunded amounts on Trustmark’s consolidated statements of income.

Trustmark’s merchant services provider contracts directly with Trustmark business customers and provides Trustmark’s merchant customers card processing equipment and transaction processing services.  Trustmark’s contract with the merchant services provider has a single-continuous service obligation to provide customer referrals for potential new accounts which is satisfied over time and qualifies as a series of distinct service periods.  Trustmark receives a flat fee for each new account established and a percentage of the residual income related to transactions processed for Trustmark’s merchant customers each month as provided in the contract.  Under the guidelines of FASB ASC Topic 606, the fee received for each new account and the profit sharing represent variable consideration.  Revenue from merchant card services contracts is recognized monthly using a time-elapsed measure of progress.  Trustmark has elected the ‘as-invoiced’ practical expedient permitted under FASB ASC Topic 606 for recognition of the merchant card services revenue.

Other Real Estate

Trustmark records a gain or loss from the sale of other real estate when control of the property transfers to the buyer.  Trustmark records the gain or loss from the sale of other real estate in noninterest expense as other real estate expense.  Other real estate sales for the year ended December 31, 2019 resulted in net losses of $291 thousand compared to net gains of $700 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2018 and $2.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2017.

In general, purchases of Trustmark’s other real estate property are not financed by Trustmark.  Financing the purchase of other real estate is evaluated based upon the same lending policies and procedures as all other types of loans.  Under FASB ASC Subtopic 610-20, “Other Income – Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets,” when Trustmark finances the sale of its other real estate to a buyer, Trustmark is required to assess whether the buyer is committed to perform their obligations under the contract and whether collectability of the transaction price is probable.  Once these two criteria are met, Trustmark derecognizes the other real estate asset and records a gain or loss on the sale once control of the property is transferred to the buyer.

Wealth Management Segment

Trust Management

There are five categories of revenue included in trust management: personal trust and investments, retirement plan services, institutional custody, corporate trust and other.  Each of these categories includes multiple types of contracts, service obligations and fee income.  However, the majority of these contracts include a single service obligation that is satisfied over time, the customer is

charged in arrears for services rendered and revenue is recognized when payment is received.  In general, the time period between when the service obligation is completed and when payment from the customer is received is less than 30 days.  Revenue from trust management contracts is primarily related to monthly service periods and based on the prior month-end’s market value.  Some trust management revenue is mandated by a court order, while other revenue consists of flat fees.  Trust management revenue based on an account’s market value represents variable consideration under the guidelines of FASB ASC Topic 606.  Trustmark has elected the ‘as-invoiced’ practical expedient allowed under FASB ASC Topic 606 to account for the trust management revenue.

Assets under administration held by Trustmark in a fiduciary or agency capacity for customers are not included in Trustmark’s consolidated balance sheets.

Investment Services

Investment services includes both brokerage and annuity income.  Trustmark has a contract with a third-party investment services company which contains a single continuous service obligation, to provide broker-dealer and advisory services to customers on behalf of the third-party, which is satisfied over time and qualifies as a series of distinct service periods.  Trustmark serves as the agent between the third-party investment services company, the principle, and the customer.  In accordance with the contract, Trustmark receives a monthly payment from the investment services company for commissions and advisory fees (asset management fees) earned on transactions completed in the prior month net of all charges and fees due to the investment services company.  Trustmark recognizes revenue from the investment services company, net of the revenue sharing expense due to the investment services company, when the payments are received.  Commissions vary from month-to-month based on the specific products and transactions completed.  The advisory fees vary based on the average daily balance of the managed assets for the period.  The commissions and advisory fees represent variable consideration under FASB ASC Topic 606.  Trustmark has elected the ‘as-invoiced’ practical expedient allowed under FASB ASC Topic 606 to recognize revenue from the investment services company.

Insurance Segment

Fisher Brown Bottrell Insurance, Inc. (FBBI), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Trustmark National Bank (TNB), operates as an insurance broker representing the policyholder and has no allegiance with any one insurance provider.  FBBI serves as the agent between the insurance provider (either insurance carrier or broker), the principal, and the policy holder, the customer.  FBBI has four general categories of insurance contracts: commercial, commercial installments, personal and employee benefits.  FBBI’s insurance contracts contain a single performance obligation, policy placement, which is satisfied at a point in time.  FBBI’s performance obligation is satisfied as of the policy effective date.

In addition to policy placement, FBBI provides various other periodic services to the policyholders for which no additional fee is charged.  These additional services are not considered material to the overall contract.  Trustmark has elected the immaterial promises practical expedient allowed under FASB ASC Topic 606, which allows Trustmark to not assess whether promised services are performance obligations if the promised services are immaterial in the context of the contract.  Therefore, the immaterial additional services offered to policyholders are not considered a performance obligation and no amount of the contract transaction price is allocated to these services.

In general, the transaction price for the insurance contracts is an established commission amount agreed upon by FBBI and the insurance provider.  The commission amount varies based on the insurance provider and the type of policy.  There are a small number of insurance contracts which FBBI does not receive a commission, but charges a fee directly to the policyholder.  

Most of the commissions from insurance contracts are subject to clawback provisions which require FBBI to refund a prorated amount of the commissions received as a result of policy cancellations or lapses.  Commissions subject to clawback provisions are considered variable consideration under FASB ASC Topic 606.  Trustmark believes the expected value method of estimating the commissions subject to clawback provisions would best predict the amount of commissions FBBI will be entitled to because of the large number of insurance contracts with similar characteristics and the number of possible outcomes.  FBBI calculates a separate weighted-average percentage (returned commissions percentage) based on actual cancellations over the previous three years for commercial lines, bonds, and personal lines.  FBBI applies the respective returned commissions percentage to the commission revenue earned related to insurance contracts within these three lines each month to calculate the estimated returned commissions amount, which represents the variable consideration subject to variable constraint.  Revenue from insurance contracts is reported net of the variable consideration subject to variable constraint.  FBBI performs an analysis of the returned commissions reserve quarterly and adjusts the reserve balance based on all available information including actual cancellations and the remaining term of the contract.  The returned commission percentage is updated annually.  

Insurance Producers at FBBI earn commission as compensation for each policy they are responsible for placing.  Commissions are not paid to Producers immediately at the policy effective date, can be subject to clawback provisions and can vary by Producer.  Effective April 1, 2018, FBBI implemented a ‘pay when paid’ system.  Under the ‘pay when paid’ system, Producers receive the commissions

for which they are entitled at the end of the month following the month in which FBBI receives payment from the insurance provider or customer.  Under FASB ASC Subtopic 340-40, “Other Assets and Deferred Costs: Contracts with Customers,” the commission paid to the Producers is an incremental cost of obtaining a contract, which should be capitalized and amortized in a manner consistent with the pattern of transfer of the service related to the contract acquisition asset.  Insurance contracts have a term of one year or less; therefore, Trustmark has elected the cost of obtaining a contract practical expedient allowed under FASB ASC Subtopic 340-40, which allows FBBI to recognize the incremental costs of obtaining a contract as an expense when incurred if the amortization period of the contract asset that FBBI otherwise would have recognized is one year or less.  Commission expense is recorded as noninterest expense in salaries and employee benefits when paid to the Producers.

Commercial Insurance

Revenue from FBBI’s commercial insurance contracts (both agency billed and direct billed) consists of a set commission amount, which is subject to clawback provisions.  Revenue from commercial installment insurance contracts consists of a set commission amount, which is not subject to clawback provisions.  An estimated commission amount is entered in the agency management system when a commercial insurance contract is placed.  FBBI records a top line receivable based on the estimated commission amount entered in the system each month, along with a corresponding amount recognized as revenue, and then adjusts the estimated receivable when the commissions are received from the insurance provider or customer.  

Personal Insurance

Revenue from FBBI’s personal insurance contracts consists of a set commission amount, which is subject to clawback provisions, and is recognized when payment is received (generally 30-60 days after the policy effective date).  Personal insurance contracts have a term of one year; therefore, recognizing the revenue from these contracts when payment is received is not materially different than recognizing the revenue at the policy effective date for any given period.  

Employee Benefits Insurance

Revenue from FBBI’s employee benefits insurance contracts consists of a variable commission amount, which is not subject to clawback provisions, and is recognized when payment is received, typically on a monthly basis.  Employee benefits insurance contracts have a set commission rate, but can vary from period to period based on changes in the number of employees covered by the policy (i.e. new hires and terminations).  FBBI generally receives twelve monthly commission payments for these contracts with the initial payment being received approximately 60-90 days after the policy effective date.  Under the guidelines of FASB ASC Topic 606, commissions from employee benefits insurance contracts represent fixed consideration because at contract inception (policy effective date) there is a set commission rate times a known number of covered employees.  Changes in the number of covered employees are not known, nor can they be predicted, at contract inception.  An increase or decrease in the number of covered employees after the policy effective date is considered a contract modification resulting from a change in scope and transaction price under FASB ASC Topic 606.  This modification is treated as part of the existing contract because it does not add a distinct service.  Employee benefits insurance contracts have a term of one year; therefore, recognizing the revenue from these contracts when payment is received is not materially different than recognizing the revenue at the policy effective date or the contract modification date for any given period.

Contingency Commission Insurance

In addition to the insurance contracts discussed above, FBBI has contracts with various insurance providers for which it receives contingency income based on volume of business and claims experience.  FBBI is the principal and the insurance provider is the customer for these contingency commission insurance contracts.  The contingency commission contracts have a single continuous or stand-ready service obligation whereby FBBI places policies with policyholders when acceptable to the insurance provider, which is satisfied over time.  The contract term for these contingency commission contracts is one year.  Revenue is recognized from the contingency commission contracts monthly using a time-elapsed measure of progress.  FBBI accrues throughout the current year the amount of contingency commission income it expects to receive in the following year adjusted for a degree of uncertainty.  FBBI updates a detail by insurance provider with the contingency commission income received, which is then compared to the total amount that was expected to be received.  If actual receipts are higher or lower than the amount accrued in the prior year, the monthly accrual for the current year is adjusted accordingly.

Under the guidelines of FASB ASC Topic 606, revenue from contingency commission insurance contracts represents variable consideration and should be estimated using one of the two allowable methods subject to the variable consideration constraint.  FBBI believes the most likely amount method to be the most appropriate method for estimating the variable consideration as there are only a few possible outcomes for each contract.

Derivative Financial Instruments

Derivative Financial Instruments

Trustmark maintains an overall interest rate risk management strategy that incorporates the use of derivative instruments to minimize significant unplanned fluctuations in earnings and cash flows caused by interest rate volatility.  Trustmark’s interest rate risk management strategy involves modifying the repricing characteristics of certain assets and liabilities so that changes in interest rates do not adversely affect the net interest margin and cash flows.  Under the guidelines of FASB ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” all derivative instruments are required to be recognized as either assets or liabilities and carried at fair value on the balance sheet.  The fair value of derivative positions outstanding is included in other assets and/or other liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and in the net change in these financial statement line items in the accompanying consolidated statements of cash flows as well as included in noninterest income in the accompanying consolidated statements of income and other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax in the accompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive income.  Trustmark’s interest rate swap derivative instruments are subject to master netting agreements, and therefore, eligible for offsetting in the consolidated balance sheets.  Trustmark has elected to not offset any derivative instruments in its consolidated balance sheets.

Derivatives Designated as Hedging Instruments

Trustmark entered into a forward interest rate swap contract on its junior subordinated debentures, with the objective of protecting the quarterly interest payments from the risk of variability of those payments resulting from changes in the three-month LIBOR interest rate, for the five-year period which began December 31, 2014 and ended December 31, 2019.  This derivative instrument was designated as a cash flow hedge under FASB ASC Topic 815.  The interest rate swap matured on December 31, 2019; therefore, there was no accumulated net after-tax amount related to the effective cash flow hedge included in accumulated other comprehensive loss at December 31, 2019.  Any accumulated net after-tax gains or losses related to effective cash flow hedge in the relevant periods were included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax.  Any ineffective portion of the interest rate swap was reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax to noninterest expense in the consolidated statements of income for the relevant periods.  Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax related to this derivative in the relevant periods were reclassified to other interest expense as interest payments were made on Trustmark’s variable rate junior subordinated debentures.

Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments

As part of Trustmark’s risk management strategy in the mortgage banking area, derivative instruments such as forward sales contracts are utilized.  Trustmark’s obligations under forward contracts consist of commitments to deliver mortgage loans, originated and/or purchased, in the secondary market at a future date.  Changes in the fair value of these derivative instruments are recorded as noninterest income in mortgage banking, net and are offset by changes in the fair value of LHFS.  See Note 1 – Significant Accounting Policies, “Loans Held for Sale (LHFS)” for information regarding the fair value option election.

Trustmark also utilizes derivative instruments such as interest rate lock commitments in its mortgage banking area.  Rate lock commitments are residential mortgage loan commitments with customers, which guarantee a specified interest rate for a specified time period.  Changes in the fair value of these derivative instruments are recorded as noninterest income in mortgage banking, net and are offset by the changes in the fair value of forward sales contracts.

Trustmark utilizes a portfolio of exchange-traded derivative instruments, such as Treasury note futures contracts and option contracts, to achieve a fair value return that economically hedges changes in the fair value of the MSR attributable to interest rates.  These transactions are considered freestanding derivatives that do not otherwise qualify for hedge accounting.  These exchange-traded derivative instruments are accounted for at fair value with changes in the fair value recorded as noninterest income in mortgage banking, net and are offset by changes in the fair value of the MSR.  The MSR fair value represents the present value of future cash flows, which among other things includes decay and the effect of changes in interest rates.  Ineffectiveness of hedging the MSR fair value is measured by comparing the change in the fair value of the hedge instruments to the change in the fair value of the MSR asset attributable to changes in interest rates and other market driven changes in valuation inputs and assumptions.

Trustmark offers certain derivatives products directly to qualified commercial lending clients seeking to manage their interest rate risk.  Trustmark economically hedges interest rate swap transactions executed with commercial lending clients by entering into offsetting interest rate swap transactions with institutional derivatives market participants.  Derivative transactions executed as part of this program are not designated as qualifying hedging relationships and are, therefore, carried at fair value with the change in fair value recorded as noninterest income in bank card and other fees.  Because these derivatives have mirror-image contractual terms, in addition to collateral provisions which mitigate the impact of non-performance risk, the changes in fair value are expected to substantially offset.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

Trustmark accounts for uncertain tax positions in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which clarifies the accounting and disclosure for uncertainty in tax positions.  Under the guidance of FASB ASC Topic 740, Trustmark accounts for deferred income taxes using the liability method.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are based on temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis of Trustmark’s assets and liabilities.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be realized or settled and are presented net in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets in other assets.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-Based Compensation

Trustmark accounts for the stock and incentive compensation under the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation.”  Under this accounting guidance, fair value is established as the measurement objective in accounting for stock awards and requires the application of a fair value based measurement method in accounting for compensation cost, which is recognized over the requisite service period.  Trustmark has elected to account for forfeitures of stock awards as they occur.

Per Share Data

Per Share Data

Trustmark accounts for per share data in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share,” which provides that unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities and shall be included in the computation of earnings per share (EPS) pursuant to the two-class method.  Trustmark has determined that its outstanding unvested stock awards are not participating securities.  Based on this determination, no change has been made to Trustmark’s current computation for basic and diluted EPS.

Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding.  Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding, adjusted for the effect of potentially dilutive stock awards outstanding during the period.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and requires certain disclosures about fair value measurements.  The fair value of an asset or liability is the price that would be received to sell that asset or paid to transfer that liability in an orderly transaction occurring in the principal market (or most advantageous market in the absence of a principal market) for such asset or liability.  Depending on the nature of the asset or liability, Trustmark uses various valuation techniques and assumptions when estimating fair value.  Inputs to valuation techniques include the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.  FASB ASC Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs.  The fair value hierarchy is as follows:

Level 1 Inputs – Valuation is based upon quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that Trustmark has the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2 Inputs – Valuation is based upon quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities and default rates and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 Inputs – Unobservable inputs reflecting the reporting entity’s own determination about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available.

In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety is classified is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.  Trustmark’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.  Transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy are recognized on the actual date of the event or circumstances that caused the transfer.

Accounting Policies Recently Adopted and Pending Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Policies Recently Adopted

Except for the changes detailed below, Trustmark has consistently applied its accounting policies to all periods presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2017-12, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities.”  Issued in August 2017, ASU 2017-12 aims to improve the financial reporting of hedging relationships to better portray the economic results of an entity’s risk management activities in its financial statements.  The amendments in ASU 2017-12 aim to better align an entity’s risk management activities and financial reporting for hedging relationships by expanding and refining hedge accounting for both non-financial and financial risk components and aligning the recognition and presentation of the effects of the hedging instrument and the hedged item in the financial statements.  The amendments in ASU 2017-12 (i) permit hedge accounting for risk components in hedging relationships involving nonfinancial risk and interest rate risk; (ii) change the guidance for designating fair value hedges of interest rate risk and for measuring the change in fair value of the hedged item in fair value hedges of interest rate risk; (iii) continue to allow an entity to exclude option premiums and forward points from the assessment of hedge effectiveness; and (iv) permit an entity to exclude the portion of the change in fair value of a currency swap that is attributable to a cross-country basis spread from the assessment of hedge effectiveness.  The amendments of ASU 2017-12 also include targeted improvements intended to simplify the application of hedge accounting.  All transition requirements and elections must be applied to all hedging relationships existing at the date of adoption.  The amendments of ASU 2017-12 became effective for Trustmark on January 1, 2019.  ASU 2017-12 did not have any impact to Trustmark’s existing hedging relationships at adoption; therefore, the adoption of ASU 2017-12 did not have a material impact on Trustmark’s consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2017-08, “Receivables-Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities.”  Issued in March 2017, ASU 2017-08 amends the amortization period for certain purchased callable debt securities held at a premium.  In particular, the amendments in ASU 2017-08 require the premium to be amortized to the earliest call date.  The amendments do not, however, require an accounting change for securities held at a discount; instead, the discount continues to be amortized to maturity.  Notably, the amendments in this ASU more closely align the amortization period of premiums and discounts to expectations incorporated in market pricing on the underlying securities.  Securities within the scope of ASU 2017-08 are purchased debt securities that have explicit, noncontingent call features that are callable at fixed prices and on preset dates.  The amendments of ASU 2017-08 became effective for Trustmark on January 1, 2019.  Trustmark’s total unamortized premium for purchased debt securities within the scope of ASU 2017-08 is immaterial; therefore, the adoption of ASU 2017-08 did not have a material impact on Trustmark’s consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” Issued in February 2016, ASU 2016-02 was issued by the FASB to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and by disclosing key

information about leasing arrangements.  ASU 2016-02, among other things, requires lessees to recognize a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. ASU 2016-02 does not significantly change lease accounting requirements applicable to lessors; however, the ASU contains some targeted improvements that are intended to align, where necessary, lessor accounting with the lessee accounting model and with the updated revenue recognition guidance issued in 2014.  In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-10, “Codification Improvements to Topic 842: Leases,” which provides corrections or improvements to a number of areas within FASB ASC Topic 842 and has the same transition guidance and effective date as ASU 2016-02. The FASB also issued ASU 2018-11, “Leases (Topic 842)-Targeted Improvements”, in July 2018, which provides entities with an additional and optional transition method to adopt the new lease standard and, for lessors only, a practical expedient, by class of underlying asset, to not separate non-lease components from the associated lease component.  The amendments in ASU 2018-11 allow an entity the option to initially apply the new lease standard at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption as opposed to at the beginning of the earliest period presented in the financial statements.  The amendments of ASU 2018-11 have the same effective date as ASU 2016-02.  In December 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-20, “Leases (Topic 842): Narrow-Scope Improvements for Lessors,” which provides targeted improvements and clarification to guidance with FASB ASC Topic 842 specific to lessors.  The amendments of ASU 2018-20 have the same effective date as ASU 2016-02 and may be applied either retrospectively or prospectively to all new and existing leases.  Trustmark has an immaterial amount of leases in which it is the lessor and adoption of ASU 2016-02 did not have a material impact to these leases or the related income.  Trustmark obtained a third-party software application which will provide lease contract maintenance and lease accounting under the guidelines of FASB ASC Topic 842.  All existing lease contracts, with the exception of short-term leases, were loaded into the software application and reviewed by Management.  The amendments of ASU 2016-02 and subsequently issued ASUs, which provided additional guidance and clarifications to various aspects of FASB ASC Topic 842, became effective for Trustmark on January 1, 2019.  Trustmark adopted the amendments in this ASU using the optional transition method allowable under ASU 2018-11, and was not required to recognize any cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings.  During the first quarter of 2019, Trustmark recorded operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities of $33.9 million and $34.9 million, respectively, in its consolidation balance sheet.  Additionally, Trustmark recorded finance lease right-of-use assets, net of accumulated depreciation, of $11.2 million in premises and equipment, net and finance lease liabilities of $11.2 million in other borrowings.  Trustmark’s total lease right-of-use assets, net represented approximately 0.3% of its total assets as of March 31, 2019; therefore, the adoption of ASU 2016-02 did not have a material impact on Trustmark’s consolidated financial statements.  Disclosures required by the amendments of ASU 2016-02 are included in Note 11 – Leases of this report.

Pending Accounting Pronouncements

ASU 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes.”  Issued in December 2019, ASU 2019-12 seeks to simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in FASB ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes.  In particular, the amendments of ASU 2019-12 remove the exceptions to (1) the incremental approach for intra-period tax allocation when there is a loss from continuing operations and income or a gain from other items (e.g., discontinued operations or other comprehensive income); (2) the requirement to recognize a deferred tax liability for equity method investments when a foreign subsidiary becomes an equity method investment; (3) the ability not to recognize a deferred tax liability for a foreign subsidiary when a foreign equity method investment becomes a subsidiary; and (4) the general methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period when a year-to-date loss exceeds the anticipated loss for the year.  The amendments of ASU 2019-12 (1) require that an entity recognize a franchise tax (or similar tax), that is partially based on income, in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 740 and account for any incremental amount incurred as a non-income-based tax; (2) require that an entity evaluate when a step up in the tax basis of goodwill should be considered part of the business combination in which the book goodwill was originally recognized and when it should instead be considered a separate transaction; (3) specify that an entity is not required to allocate the consolidated amount of current and deferred tax expense to a legal entity that is not subject to tax in its separate financial statements, but rather may elect to do so for a legal entity that is both not subject to tax and disregarded by the taxing authority; and (4) require that an entity reflect the effect of an enacted change in tax laws or rates in the annual effective tax rate computation in the interim period that includes the enactment date.  ASU 2019-12 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020.  Early adoption of ASU 2019-12 is permitted, including adoption in any interim period for periods for which financial statements have not yet been issued.  An entity that elects to early adopt the amendments in an interim period should reflect any adjustments as of the beginning of the annual period that includes that interim period.  Additionally, an entity that elects early adoption must adopt all the amendments in the same period.  The amendments related to separate financial statements of legal entities that are not subject to tax should be applied on a retrospective basis for all periods presented.  The amendments related to changes in ownership of foreign equity method investments or foreign subsidiaries should be applied on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption.  The amendments related to franchise taxes that are partially based on income should be applied on either a retrospective basis for all periods presented or a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption.  All other amendments should be applied on a prospective basis.  Trustmark intends to adopt the amendments in ASU 2019-12 during the first quarter of 2021.  Adoption of ASU 2019-12 is not expected to have a material impact to Trustmark’s consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2018-15, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other–Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force).”  Issued in August 2018, ASU 2018-15 aims to reduce complexity in the accounting for costs of implementing a cloud computing service arrangement.  ASU 2018-15 aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal-use software license).  The amendments of ASU 2018-15 require an entity to follow the guidance in FASB ASC Subtopic 350-40, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software,” in order to determine which implementation costs to capitalize as an asset related to the service contract and which costs to expense.  The amendments of ASU 2018-15 also require an entity to expense the capitalized implementation costs of a hosting arrangement that is a service contract over the term of the hosting arrangement (i.e. the noncancellable period of the arrangement plus periods covered by (1) an option to extend the arrangement if the entity is reasonably certain to exercise that option, (2) an option to terminate the arrangement if the entity is reasonably certain not to exercise the option, and (3) an option to extend (or not to terminate) the arrangement in which exercise of the option is in the control of the vendor).  ASU 2018-15 also requires an entity to present the expense related to the capitalized implementation costs in the same line item in the statement of income as the fees associated with the hosting element (service) of the arrangement, and to classify payments for capitalized implementation costs in the statement of cash flows in the same manner as payments made for fees associated with the hosting element.  ASU 2018-15 became effective for Trustmark on January 1, 2020.  Trustmark does not currently have any material amount of implementation costs related to hosting arrangements that are service contracts within the scope of this ASU; therefore, adoption of ASU 2018-15 did not impact to Trustmark’s consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2018-14, “Compensation-Retirement Benefits-Defined Benefit Plans-General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans.”  Issued in August 2018, ASU 2018-14 modifies the disclosure requirements for employers that sponsor defined benefit pension or other postretirement plans.  The amendments in ASU 2018-14 remove certain disclosure requirements that are no longer considered cost beneficial, clarify the specific requirements of disclosures and add disclosure requirements identified as relevant.  The amendments of ASU 2018-14 become effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020.  Trustmark plans to adopt these amendments during the first quarter of 2021.  Management is currently assessing all the potential impacts of the amendments in ASU 2018-14 on Trustmark’s consolidated financial statements; however, the adoption of ASU 2018-14 is not expected to have a material impact on Trustmark’s consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement.”  Issued in August 2018, the amendments in this ASU remove disclosure requirements in FASB ASC Topic 820 related to (1) the amount of, and reasons for, transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy; (2) the policy for timing of transfers between levels; (3) the valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements; and (4) for non-public entities, the changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in earnings for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period. The ASU also modifies disclosure requirements such that (1) in place of a rollforward for Level 3 fair value measurements, a non-public entity is required to disclose transfers into and out of Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy and purchases and issues of Level 3 assets and liabilities; (2) for investments in certain entities that calculate net asset value, an entity is required to disclose the timing of liquidation of an investee’s assets and the date that restrictions from redemption might lapse, only if the investee has communicated the timing to the entity or announced the timing publicly; and (3) it is clear that the measurement uncertainty disclosure is to communicate information about the uncertainty in measurement as of the reporting date.  Additionally, this ASU adds disclosure requirements for public entities about (1) the changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period, and (2) the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements.  The amendments of ASU 2018-13 became effective for Trustmark on January 1, 2020. Adoption of ASU 2018-13 did not have a material impact on Trustmark’s consolidated financial statements, and changes to disclosures as required by the amendments of ASU 2018-13 will be presented beginning with the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ending March 31, 2020.

ASU 2017-04, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment.”  Issued in January 2017, ASU 2017-04 simplifies the manner in which an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test.  Step 2 measures a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of a reporting unit's goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill.  In computing the implied fair value of goodwill under Step 2, an entity, prior to the amendments in ASU 2017-04, had to perform procedures to determine the fair value at the impairment testing date of its assets and liabilities, including unrecognized assets and liabilities, in accordance with the procedure that would be required in determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination.  However, under the amendments in ASU 2017-04, an entity should (1) perform its annual or interim goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, and (2) recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit's fair value, with the understanding that the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.  Additionally, ASU 2017-04 removes the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment and, if it fails such qualitative test, to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test.  ASU 2017-04 became effective for Trustmark on January 1, 2020, and the amendments of this ASU will be applicable to the annual goodwill impairment

test performed as of October 1, 2020.  Based on Trustmark’s annual goodwill impairment test performed as of October 1, 2019, the fair value of its reporting units exceeded the carrying value and, therefore, the related goodwill was not impaired.  The adoption of ASU 2017-04 is not expected to have a material impact on Trustmark’s consolidated financial statements.  

ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.”  Issued in June 2016, ASU 2016-13 will add FASB ASC Topic 326, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses” and finalizes amendments to FASB ASC Subtopic 825-15, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses.”  The amendments of ASU 2016-13 are intended to provide financial statement users with more decision-useful information related to expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit by replacing the current incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to determine credit loss estimates.  The amendments of ASU 2016-13 eliminate the probable initial recognition threshold and, in turn, reflect an entity’s current estimate of all expected credit losses.  ASU 2016-13 does not specify the method for measuring expected credit losses, and an entity is allowed to apply methods that reasonably reflect its expectations of the credit loss estimate.  Additionally, the amendments of ASU 2016-13 require that credit losses on available for sale debt securities be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down.  The amendments of ASU 2016-13, and all subsequent ASUs issued by FASB to provide additional guidance and clarification related to this Topic, became effective for Trustmark on January 1, 2020.  

As previously disclosed, Trustmark established a cross-functional Current Expected Credit Loss (CECL) Steering Committee, a CECL Solution Development Working Group and a CECL Working Group which included the appropriate members of Management to evaluate the impact this ASU, and all subsequent ASUs issued by FASB, will have on Trustmark’s financial position, results of operations and financial statement disclosures and determine the most appropriate method of implementing the amendments in these ASUs as well as any resources needed to implement the amendments.  Trustmark selected a third-party vendor to provide allowance for loan loss software as well as advisory services in developing a new methodology that would be compliant with amendments of ASU 2016-13, and is working with the approved third-party vendor to finalize the impact to Trustmark.

Based upon preliminary modeling results, Management estimates the allowance related to loans will increase.  Trustmark expects to recognize a one-time cumulative effect adjustment through retained earnings at the date of adoption.  Trustmark intends to estimate losses over an approximate one-year forecast period using Moody’s baseline economic forecasts, and then revert to longer term historical loss experience over a one-year period to estimate losses.  Currently, Trustmark expects the increase in the allowance to be in the range of $10.0 million to $35.0 million, primarily driven by unfunded commitment exposure, economic forecasts and uncertainty.  This estimated range includes a qualitative adjustment to the allowance for credit losses related to loans and an allowance on unfunded loan commitments.  The estimate is subject to further refinement based on continuing reviews and testing of Management’s judgements, current and forecasted macroeconomic conditions and the composition of the loan portfolio, as well as finalization of internal controls to ensure model effectiveness.  

Trustmark does not expect a material allowance for credit losses to be recorded on held-to-maturity securities under the CECL model due to the composition of the portfolio being primarily government agency-backed securities for which the risk of loss is minimal.  Additionally, Trustmark does not expect a material allowance for credit losses to be recorded on available-for-sale debt securities, as the majority of the portfolio consists of government agency-backed securities for which the risk of loss is minimal.

Disclosures required by the amendments ASU 2016-13 will be presented beginning with the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ending March 31, 2020.
