Loans and Leases Loans and Leases
The loans and lease portfolio is disaggregated into portfolio segments and then further disaggregated into classes for certain disclosures. GAAP defines a portfolio segment as the level at which an entity develops and documents a systematic method for determining its allowance for credit losses. A class is generally a disaggregation of a portfolio segment and is generally determined based on risk characteristics of the loan and FHN’s method for monitoring and assessing credit risk and performance. FHN's loan and lease portfolio segments are commercial and consumer. The classes of loans and leases are: (1) commercial, financial, and industrial, which
includes commercial and industrial loans and leases and loans to mortgage companies, (2) commercial real estate, (3) consumer real estate, which includes both real estate installment and home equity lines of credit, and (4) credit card and other.
The following table provides the amortized cost basis of loans and leases by portfolio segment and class as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, excluding accrued interest of $180 million and $134 million, respectively, which is included in other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Restrictions
Loans and leases with carrying values of $37.4 billion and $36.6 billion were pledged as collateral for borrowings at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Most of FHN’s business activity is with clients located in the southern United States. FHN’s lending activity is concentrated in its market areas within those states. As of September 30, 2022, FHN had loans to mortgage companies of $2.7 billion and loans to finance and insurance companies of $4.1 billion. As a result, 22% of the C&I portfolio is sensitive to impacts on the financial services industry.
Credit Quality Indicators
FHN employs a dual grade commercial risk grading methodology to assign an estimate for the probability of default and the loss given default for each commercial loan using factors specific to various industry, portfolio, or
product segments that result in a rank ordering of risk and the assignment of grades PD 1 to PD 16. This credit grading system is intended to identify and measure the credit quality of the loan and lease portfolio by analyzing the migration between grading categories. It is also integral to the estimation methodology utilized in determining the ALLL since an allowance is established for pools of commercial loans based on the credit grade assigned. Each PD grade corresponds to an estimated one-year default probability percentage. PD grades are continually evaluated but require a formal scorecard annually.
PD 1 through PD 12 are “pass” grades. PD grades 13-16 correspond to the regulatory-defined categories of special mention (13), substandard (14), doubtful (15), and loss (16). Special mention loans and leases have potential weaknesses that, if left uncorrected, may result in deterioration of FHN's credit position at some future date. Substandard commercial loans and leases have well-defined weaknesses and are characterized by the distinct
possibility that FHN will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Doubtful commercial loans and leases have the same weaknesses as substandard loans and leases with the added characteristics that the probability of loss is high and collection of the full amount is improbable.
The following tables provide the amortized cost basis of the commercial loan portfolio by year of origination and credit quality indicator as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

The consumer portfolio is comprised primarily of smaller-balance loans which are very similar in nature in that most are standard products and are backed by residential real estate. Because of the similarities of consumer loan types, FHN is able to utilize the FICO score, among other attributes, to assess the credit quality of consumer borrowers. FICO scores are refreshed on a quarterly basis in an attempt to reflect the recent risk profile of the borrowers. Accruing delinquency amounts are indicators of asset quality within the credit card and other consumer portfolio.
The following table reflects the amortized cost basis by year of origination and refreshed FICO scores for
consumer real estate loans as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Within consumer real estate, classes include HELOC and real estate installment loans. HELOCs are loans which during their draw period are classified as revolving loans. Once the draw period ends and the loan enters its repayment period, the loan converts to a term loan and is classified as a revolving loan converted to a term loan. All loans classified in the following tables as revolving loans or revolving loans converted to term loans are HELOCs. Real estate installment loans are originated as fixed term loans and are classified below in their vintage year. All loans in the following tables classified in a vintage year are real estate installment loans.

Nonaccrual and Past Due Loans and Leases
Loans and leases are placed on nonaccrual if it becomes evident that full collection of principal and interest is at risk, impairment has been recognized as a partial charge-off of principal balance due to insufficient collateral value and past due status, or on a case-by-case basis if FHN continues to receive payments but there are other borrower-specific issues. Included in nonaccrual are loans for which FHN continues to receive payments including residential real estate loans where the borrower has been discharged of personal obligation through bankruptcy.
Past due loans are loans contractually past due as to interest or principal payments, but which have not yet been put on nonaccrual status. In accordance with revised Interagency Guidance issued in 2020, FHN was not required to designate loans with deferrals granted in response to COVID-19 as past due because of such deferrals. If a borrower defers payment, this may result in no contractual payments being past due, and as such, loans would not be considered past due during the period of deferral, and as a result, are excluded from loans past due 30-89 days and loans 90+ days past due in the tables below.
The following table reflects accruing and non-accruing loans and leases by class on September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

(d) $7 million and $50 million of real estate installment loans are nonaccrual loans that have been specifically reviewed for impairment with no related allowance in 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Collateral-Dependent Loans
Collateral-dependent loans are defined as loans for which repayment is expected to be derived substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral and where the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. At a minimum, the estimated value of the collateral for each loan equals the current book value.
As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, FHN had commercial loans with amortized cost of approximately $116 million and $120 million, respectively, that were based on the value of underlying collateral. Collateral-dependent C&I and CRE loans totaled $108 million and $8 million, respectively, at September 30, 2022. The collateral for these loans generally consists of business assets including land, buildings, equipment and financial assets. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, FHN recognized charge-offs of $5 million and $9 million, respectively, on these loans related to reductions in estimated collateral values.
Consumer HELOC and real estate installment loans with amortized cost based on the value of underlying real estate collateral were approximately $7 million and $28 million, respectively, as of September 30, 2022 and $7 million and $20 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2021. Charge-offs during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 were $2 million for collateral-dependent consumer loans and were not significant for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021.
Troubled Debt Restructurings
As part of FHN’s ongoing risk management practices, FHN attempts to work with borrowers when necessary to extend or modify loan terms to better align with their current ability to repay. Extensions and modifications to loans are made in accordance with internal policies and guidelines which conform to regulatory guidance. Each occurrence is unique to the borrower and is evaluated separately.
A modification is classified as a TDR if the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and it is determined that FHN has granted a concession to the borrower. FHN may determine that a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty if the borrower is currently in default on any of its debt, or if it is probable that a borrower may default in the foreseeable future. Many aspects of a borrower’s financial situation are assessed when determining whether they are experiencing financial difficulty. Concessions could include extension of the maturity date, reductions of the interest rate (which may make the rate lower than current market for a new loan with similar risk), reduction or forgiveness of accrued interest, or principal forgiveness. The assessments of whether a borrower is experiencing (or is likely to experience) financial difficulty, and whether a concession has been granted, are subjective in nature and management’s judgment is required when determining whether a modification is classified as a TDR. In accordance with regulatory guidance, certain loan modifications that might ordinarily have qualified as TDRs were not accounted for as TDRs and have been excluded from the disclosures below. For loan modifications that were made during the year ended December 31, 2021 that met the TDR relief provisions outlined in either the CARES Act, as extended by the CAA, or revised Interagency Guidance, FHN has excluded these modifications from consideration as TDRs, and has excluded loans with these qualifying modifications from designation as TDRs in the information and discussion that follows.
On September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, FHN had $204 million and $206 million, respectively, of portfolio loans classified as TDRs. Additionally, $31 million and $35 million of loans held for sale as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, were classified as TDRs.
The following table presents the end of period balance for loans modified in a TDR during the periods indicated:
