CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Some of our statements contained in this document, including matters discussed under the caption “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation,” are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements relate to future events or our future financial performance and include statements about the competitiveness of the banking industry, potential regulatory obligations, our entrance and expansion into other markets, including through potential acquisitions, our other business strategies and other statements that are not historical facts. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance or results. When we use words like “may,” “plan,” “contemplate,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “intend,” “continue,” “expect,” “project,” “predict,” “estimate,” “could,” “should,” “would,” and similar expressions, you should consider them as identifying forward-looking statements, although we may use other phrasing. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties and are based on our beliefs and assumptions, and on the information available to us at the time that these disclosures were prepared. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties and may not be realized due to a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, the following:

• the effects of future local, regional, national and international economic conditions, including inflation or a decrease in commercial real estate and residential housing values;

• changes in the level of nonperforming assets and charge-offs, and credit risk generally;

• the risks of changes in interest rates or the level and composition of deposits, loan demand and the values of loan collateral, securities and interest-sensitive assets and liabilities;

• the effect of any mergers, acquisitions or other transactions to which we or our bank subsidiary may from time to time be a party, including our ability to successfully integrate any businesses that we acquire;

• the risk that expected cost savings and other benefits from acquisitions may not be fully realized or may take longer to realize than expected;

• the possibility that an acquisition does not close when expected or at all because required regulatory, shareholder or other approvals and other conditions to closing are not received or satisfied on a timely basis or at all;

• the reaction to a proposed acquisition transaction of the respective companies’ customers, employees and counterparties;

• diversion of management time on acquisition-related issues;

• the ability to enter into and/or close additional acquisitions;

• the availability of and access to capital on terms acceptable to us;

• increased regulatory requirements and supervision that will apply as a result of our exceeding $10 billion in total assets;

• legislation and regulation affecting the financial services industry as a whole, and the Company and its subsidiaries in particular, including the effects resulting from the reforms enacted by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) and the adoption of regulations by regulatory bodies under the Dodd-Frank Act;

• governmental monetary and fiscal policies, as well as legislative and regulatory changes, including as a result of initiatives of the newly elected administration of President Donald J. Trump;

• the effects of terrorism and efforts to combat it;

• political instability;

• the ability to keep pace with technological changes, including changes regarding cybersecurity;

• an increase in the incidence or severity of fraud, illegal payments, security breaches or other illegal acts impacting our bank subsidiary or our customers;

• the effects of competition from other commercial banks, thrifts, mortgage banking firms, consumer finance companies, credit unions, securities brokerage firms, insurance companies, money market and other mutual funds and other financial institutions operating in our market area and elsewhere, including institutions operating regionally, nationally and internationally, together with competitors offering banking products and services by mail, telephone and the Internet;

• the effect of changes in accounting policies and practices and auditing requirements, as may be adopted by the regulatory agencies, as well as the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, and other accounting standard setters;

• higher defaults on our loan portfolio than we expect; and

• the failure of assumptions underlying the establishment of our allowance for loan losses or changes in our estimate of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses.

All written or oral forward-looking statements attributable to us are expressly qualified in their entirety by this Cautionary Note. Our actual results may differ significantly from those we discuss in these forward-looking statements. For other factors, risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from estimates and projections contained in these forward-looking statements, see the “Risk Factors” sections of our Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 28, 2017 and this Form 10-Q.

Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

1.  Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Operations

Home BancShares, Inc. (the “Company” or “HBI”) is a bank holding company headquartered in Conway, Arkansas. The Company is primarily engaged in providing a full range of banking services to individual and corporate customers through its wholly-owned community bank subsidiary – Centennial Bank (sometimes referred to as “Centennial” or the “Bank”). The Bank has branch locations in Arkansas, Florida, South Alabama and New York City. The Company is subject to competition from other financial institutions. The Company also is subject to the regulation of certain federal and state agencies and undergoes periodic examinations by those regulatory authorities.

A summary of the significant accounting policies of the Company follows:

Operating Segments

Operating segments are components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Bank is the only significant subsidiary upon which management makes decisions regarding how to allocate resources and assess performance. Each of the branches of the Bank provide a group of similar community banking services, including such products and services as commercial, real estate and consumer loans, time deposits, checking and savings accounts. The individual bank branches have similar operating and economic characteristics. While the chief decision maker monitors the revenue streams of the various products, services and branch locations, operations are managed and financial performance is evaluated on a Company-wide basis. Accordingly, all of the community banking services and branch locations are considered by management to be aggregated into one reportable operating segment, community banking.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of investment securities, the valuation of foreclosed assets and the valuations of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations. In connection with the determination of the allowance for loan losses and the valuation of foreclosed assets, management obtains independent appraisals for significant properties.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of HBI and its subsidiaries. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Reclassifications

Various items within the accompanying consolidated financial statements for previous years have been reclassified to provide more comparative information. These reclassifications had no effect on net earnings or stockholders’ equity.

Interim financial information

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2017 and 2016 have been prepared in condensed format, and therefore do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements.

8

The information furnished in these interim statements reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for each respective period presented. Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations in the interim statements are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other quarter or for the full year. The interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2016 Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed based on the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during each year, which have been restated to reflect the effect of the 2-for-1 stock split during June 2016. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted-average shares and all potential dilutive shares outstanding during the period. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) for the following periods:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2017		2016
	(In thousands)
Net income	$	46,856	$	41,427
Average shares outstanding		141,785		140,390
Effect of common stock based compensation		707		297
Average diluted shares outstanding		142,492		140,687
Basic earnings per share	$	0.33	$	0.30
Diluted earnings per share		0.33		0.29

2.  Business Combinations

Acquisition of Giant Holdings, Inc.

On February 23, 2017, the Company completed its acquisition of Giant Holdings, Inc. (“GHI”), parent company of Landmark Bank, N.A. (“Landmark”), pursuant to a previously announced definitive agreement and plan of merger whereby GHI merged with and into HBI and, immediately thereafter, Landmark merged with and into Centennial. The Company paid a purchase price to the GHI shareholders of approximately $96.0 million for the GHI acquisition. Under the terms of the agreement, shareholders of GHI received 2,738,038 shares of its common stock valued at approximately $77.5 million as of February 23, 2017, plus approximately $18.5 million in cash in exchange for all outstanding shares of GHI common stock.

GHI formerly operated six branch locations in the Ft. Lauderdale, Florida area. Including the effects of the purchase accounting adjustments, as of acquisition date, GHI had approximately $398.1 million in total assets, $329.4 million in loans after $6.5 million of loan discounts, and $304.0 million in deposits.

The Company has determined that the acquisition of the net assets of GHI constitutes a business combination as defined by the ASC Topic 805. Accordingly, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are presented at their fair values as required. Fair values were determined based on the requirements of ASC Topic 820. In many cases, the determination of these fair values required management to make estimates about discount rates, future expected cash flows, market conditions and other future events that are highly subjective in nature and subject to change. The following schedule is a breakdown of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date:

The following is a description of the methods used to determine the fair values of significant assets and liabilities presented above:

Cash and due from banks and interest-bearing deposits with other banks – The carrying amount of these assets is a reasonable estimate of fair value based on the short-term nature of these assets.

Investment securities – Investment securities were acquired from GHI with an approximately $5,000 adjustment to market value based upon quoted market prices.

Loans – Fair values for loans were based on a discounted cash flow methodology that considered factors including the type of loan and related collateral, classification status, fixed or variable interest rate, term of loan and whether or not the loan was amortizing, and current discount rates. The discount rates used for loans are based on current market rates for new originations of comparable loans and include adjustments for liquidity concerns.

10

The Company evaluated $315.6 million of the loans purchased in conjunction with the acquisition in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 310-20, Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs, which were recorded with a $3.6 million discount. As a result, the fair value discount on these loans is being accreted into interest income over the weighted average life of the loans using a constant yield method. The remaining $20.3 million of loans evaluated were considered purchased credit impaired loans within the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 310-30, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality, and were recorded with a $4.5 million discount. These purchase credit impaired loans will recognize interest income through accretion of the difference between the carrying amount of the loans and the expected cash flows. The acquired GHI loan balance includes $1.6 million of discount for credit losses on purchased loans.

Bank premises and equipment – Bank premises and equipment were acquired from GHI with a $608,000 adjustment to market value. This represents the difference between current appraisals completed in connection with the acquisition and book value acquired.

Cash value of life insurance – Cash value of life insurance was acquired from GHI at market value.

Accrued interest receivable – Accrued interest receivable was acquired from GHI at market value.

Deferred tax asset – The current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recorded to reflect the differences in the carrying values of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the cost basis for federal income tax purposes, at the Company’s statutory federal and state income tax rate of 39.225%.

Core deposit intangible – This intangible asset represents the value of the relationships that GHI had with its deposit customers. The fair value of this intangible asset was estimated based on a discounted cash flow methodology that gave appropriate consideration to expected customer attrition rates, cost of the deposit base, and the net maintenance cost attributable to customer deposits. The Company recorded $3.4 million of core deposit intangible.

Deposits – The fair values used for the demand and savings deposits that comprise the transaction accounts acquired, by definition equal the amount payable on demand at the acquisition date. The $324,000 fair value adjustment applied for time deposits was because the weighted average interest rate of GHI’s certificates of deposits were estimated to be below the current market rates.

FHLB borrowed funds – The fair value of FHLB borrowed funds is estimated based on borrowing rates currently available to the Company for borrowings with similar terms and maturities.

Accrued interest payable and other liabilities – The fair value used represents the adjustments of certain estimated liabilities from GHI.

The purchase price allocation and certain fair value measurements remain preliminary due to the timing of the acquisition. The Company will continue to review the estimated fair values of loans, deposits and intangible assets, and to evaluate the assumed tax positions and contingencies.

The Company’s operating results for the period ended March 31, 2017, include the operating results of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities subsequent to the acquisition date. Due to the fair value adjustments recorded and the fact GHI total assets acquired are less than 5% of total assets as of March 31, 2017 excluding GHI as recorded by HBI as of acquisition date, historical results are not believed to be material to the Company’s results, and thus no pro-forma information is presented.

Acquisition of The Bank of Commerce

On February 28, 2017, HBI, parent company of Centennial Bank (“Centennial”), completed its previously announced acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of The Bank of Commerce, a Florida state-chartered bank that operated in the Sarasota, Florida area (“BOC”), pursuant to an acquisition agreement, dated December 1, 2016, by and between HBI and Bank of Commerce Holdings, Inc. (“BCHI”), parent company of BOC. HBI merged BOC with and into Centennial effective as of the close of business on February 28, 2017.

11

The acquisition of BOC was conducted in accordance with the provisions of Section 363 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) pursuant to a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code filed by BCHI with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Florida (the “Bankruptcy Court”). The sale of BOC by BCHI was subject to certain bidding procedures approved by the Bankruptcy Court. On November 14, 2016, the Company submitted an initial bid to purchase the outstanding shares of BOC in accordance with the bidding procedures approved by the Bankruptcy Court. An auction was subsequently conducted on November 16, 2016, and the Company was deemed to be the successful bidder. The Bankruptcy Court entered a final order on December 9, 2016 approving the sale of BOC to the Company pursuant to and in accordance with the acquisition agreement.

Under the terms of the Agreement, HBI paid an aggregate of approximately $4.2 million in cash for the acquisition, which included the purchase of all outstanding shares of BOC common stock, the discounted purchase of certain subordinated debentures issued by BOC from the existing holders of the subordinated debentures, and an expense reimbursement to BCHI for approved administrative claims in connection with the bankruptcy proceeding.

BOC formerly operated three branch locations in the Sarasota, Florida area. Including the effects of the purchase accounting adjustments, as of acquisition date, BOC had approximately $178.1 million in total assets, $118.5 million in loans after $5.8 million of loan discounts, and $139.8 million in deposits.

The Company has determined that the acquisition of the net assets of BOC constitutes a business combination as defined by the ASC Topic 805. Accordingly, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are presented at their fair values as required. Fair values were determined based on the requirements of ASC Topic 820. In many cases, the determination of these fair values required management to make estimates about discount rates, future expected cash flows, market conditions and other future events that are highly subjective in nature and subject to change. The following schedule is a breakdown of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date:

The following is a description of the methods used to determine the fair values of significant assets and liabilities presented above:

Cash and due from banks and interest-bearing deposits with other banks – The carrying amount of these assets is a reasonable estimate of fair value based on the short-term nature of these assets.

Investment securities – Investment securities were acquired from BOC with a $113,000 adjustment to market value based upon quoted market prices.

Loans – Fair values for loans were based on a discounted cash flow methodology that considered factors including the type of loan and related collateral, classification status, fixed or variable interest rate, term of loan and whether or not the loan was amortizing, and current discount rates. The discount rates used for loans are based on current market rates for new originations of comparable loans and include adjustments for liquidity concerns.

The Company evaluated $106.8 million of the loans purchased in conjunction with the acquisition in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 310-20, Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs, which were recorded with a $3.0 million discount. As a result, the fair value discount on these loans is being accreted into interest income over the weighted average life of the loans using a constant yield method. The remaining $17.5 million of loans evaluated were considered purchased credit impaired loans within the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 310-30, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality, and were recorded with a $2.8 million discount. These purchase credit impaired loans will recognize interest income through accretion of the difference between the carrying amount of the loans and the expected cash flows.

Bank premises and equipment – Bank premises and equipment were acquired from BOC at market value.

Foreclosed assets held for sale – These assets are presented at the estimated fair values that management expects to receive when the properties are sold, net of related costs to sell.

Accrued interest receivable – Accrued interest receivable was acquired from BOC at market value.

Deferred tax asset – The current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recorded to reflect the differences in the carrying values of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the cost basis for federal income tax purposes, at the Company’s statutory federal and state income tax rate of 39.225%.

Core deposit intangible – This intangible asset represents the value of the relationships that BOC had with its deposit customers. The fair value of this intangible asset was estimated based on a discounted cash flow methodology that gave appropriate consideration to expected customer attrition rates, cost of the deposit base, and the net maintenance cost attributable to customer deposits. The Company recorded $968,000 of core deposit intangible.

Deposits – The fair values used for the demand and savings deposits that comprise the transaction accounts acquired, by definition equal the amount payable on demand at the acquisition date. The $270,000 fair value adjustment applied for time deposits was because the weighted-average interest rate of BOC’s certificates of deposits were estimated to be below the current market rates.

FHLB borrowed funds – The fair value of FHLB borrowed funds is estimated based on borrowing rates currently available to the Company for borrowings with similar terms and maturities.

Accrued interest payable and other liabilities – The fair value used represents the adjustment of certain estimated liabilities from BOC.

The purchase price allocation and certain fair value measurements remain preliminary due to the timing of the acquisition. The Company will continue to review the estimated fair values of loans, deposits and intangible assets, and to evaluate the assumed tax positions and contingencies.

13

The Company’s operating results for the period ended March 31, 2017, include the operating results of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities subsequent to the acquisition date. Due to the fair value adjustments recorded and the fact BOC total assets acquired are less than 5% of total assets as of March 31, 2017 excluding BOC as recorded by HBI as of acquisition date, historical results are not believed to be material to the Company’s results, and thus no pro-forma information is presented.

Future Acquisition of Stonegate Bank

On March 27, 2017, Home BancShares, Inc. and its wholly-owned bank subsidiary, Centennial Bank, an Arkansas state bank (“Centennial”), entered into an acquisition with Stonegate Bank (“Stonegate”). The acquisition agreement provides that Stonegate will merge with and into Centennial (the “Merger”). Under the terms of the acquisition agreement, shareholders of Stonegate will receive, in the aggregate, proceeds from the transaction of approximately $749.8 million, consisting of $50.0 million in cash and $699.7 million of HBI common stock. In addition, the holders of outstanding stock options of Stonegate will receive approximately $28.6 million in cash in connection with the cancellation of their options immediately before the Merger, for a total transaction value of approximately $778.4 million. The number of shares of HBI common stock to be issued to Stonegate shareholders will be determined based on the volume-weighted average closing price per share of HBI common stock for the 20 consecutive trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the closing date (the “Average Closing Price”). In addition, if the Average Closing Price of HBI common stock as of the closing date is equal to $35.19 or greater or $22.52 or less, then the Average Closing Price will be fixed at $35.19 or $22.52, respectively. The acquisition is expected to close late in the fourth quarter of 2017, and is subject to the approval of the shareholders of the Company and Stonegate, regulatory approvals, and other customary conditions set forth in the agreement

As of March 31, 2017, Stonegate had approximately $3.24 billion in total assets, $2.48 billion in loans and $2.72 billion in customer deposits. Stonegate is conducting banking business from 25 locations in key Florida markets with significant presence in Broward and Sarasota counties.

Assets, principally investment securities, having a carrying value of approximately $1.01 billion and $1.07 billion at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, were pledged to secure public deposits and for other purposes required or permitted by law. Also, investment securities pledged as collateral for repurchase agreements totaled approximately $123.8 million and $121.3 million at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of securities classified as available-for-sale and held-to-maturity at March 31, 2017, by contractual maturity, are shown below. Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities because issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

	Available-for-Sale				Held-to-Maturity
	Amortized		Estimated		Amortized		Estimated
	Cost		Fair Value		Cost		Fair Value
	(In thousands)
Due in one year or less	$	181,428	$	183,538	$	77,535	$	78,640
Due after one year through five years		771,067		772,436		120,449		122,526

Total	$	1,248,927	$	1,250,590	$	276,599	$	279,806

For purposes of the maturity tables, mortgage-backed securities, which are not due at a single maturity date, have been allocated over maturity groupings based on anticipated maturities. The mortgage-backed securities may mature earlier than their weighted-average contractual maturities because of principal prepayments.

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2017, approximately $15.2 million in available-for-sale securities were sold. The gross realized gains on the sales for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 totaled approximately $423,000. The income tax expense/benefit to net security gains and losses was 39.225% of the gross amounts.

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, approximately $1.4 million, in available-for-sale securities were sold. The gross realized gains on the sales for the three month period ended March 31, 2016 totaled approximately $10,000. The income tax expense/benefit to net security gains and losses was 39.225% of the gross amounts.

The Company evaluates all securities quarterly to determine if any unrealized losses are deemed to be other than temporary. In completing these evaluations the Company follows the requirements of FASB ASC 320, Investments – Debt and Equity Securities. Certain investment securities are valued less than their historical cost. These declines are primarily the result of the rate for these investments yielding less than current market rates. Based on evaluation of available evidence, management believes the declines in fair value for these securities are temporary. The Company does not intend to sell or believe it will be required to sell these investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be maturity. Should the impairment of any of these securities become other than temporary, the cost basis of the investment will be reduced and the resulting loss recognized in net income in the period the other-than-temporary impairment is identified.

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2017, no securities were deemed to have other-than-temporary impairment.

For the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company had investment securities with approximately $1.7 million in unrealized losses, which have been in continuous loss positions for more than twelve months. Excluding impairment write downs taken in prior periods, the Company’s assessments indicated that the cause of the market depreciation was primarily the change in interest rates and not the issuer’s financial condition, or downgrades by rating agencies. In addition, approximately 75.6% of the Company’s investment portfolio matures in five years or less. As a result, the Company has the ability and intent to hold such securities until maturity.

The following shows gross unrealized losses and estimated fair value of investment securities classified as available-for-sale and held-to-maturity with unrealized losses that are not deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired, aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual investment securities have been in a continuous loss position as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016:

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2017, the Company sold $4.0 million of the guaranteed portion of certain SBA loans, which resulted in a gain of approximately $188,000. During the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, no SBA loans were sold.

Mortgage loans held for sale of approximately $50.7 million and $56.2 million at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, are included in residential 1-4 family loans. Mortgage loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value, determined using an aggregate basis. Gains and losses resulting from sales of mortgage loans are recognized when the respective loans are sold to investors. Gains and losses are determined by the difference between the selling price and the carrying amount of the loans sold, net of discounts collected or paid. The Company obtains forward commitments to sell mortgage loans to reduce market risk on mortgage loans in the process of origination and mortgage loans held for sale. The forward commitments acquired by the Company for mortgage loans in process of origination are considered mandatory forward commitments. Because these commitments are structured on a mandatory basis, the Company is required to substitute another loan or to buy back the commitment if the original loan does not fund. These commitments are derivative instruments and their fair values at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 were not material.

Credit Quality Indicators. As part of the on-going monitoring of the credit quality of the Company’s loan portfolio, management tracks certain credit quality indicators including trends related to (i) the risk rating of loans, (ii) the level of classified loans, (iii) net charge-offs, (iv) non-performing loans and (v) the general economic conditions in Arkansas, Florida, Alabama and New York.

The Company utilizes a risk rating matrix to assign a risk rating to each of its loans. Loans are rated on a scale from 1 to 8. Descriptions of the general characteristics of the 8 risk ratings are as follows:

• Risk rating 1 – Excellent. Loans in this category are to persons or entities of unquestionable financial strength, a highly liquid financial position, with collateral that is liquid and well margined. These borrowers have performed without question on past obligations, and the Bank expects their performance to continue. Internally generated cash flow covers current maturities of long-term debt by a substantial margin. Loans secured by bank certificates of deposit and savings accounts, with appropriate holds placed on the accounts, are to be rated in this category.

• Risk rating 2 – Good. These are loans to persons or entities with strong financial condition and above-average liquidity that have previously satisfactorily handled their obligations with the Bank. Collateral securing the Bank’s debt is margined in accordance with policy guidelines. Internally generated cash flow covers current maturities of long-term debt more than adequately. Unsecured loans to individuals supported by strong financial statements and on which repayment is satisfactory may be included in this classification.

• Risk rating 3 – Satisfactory. Loans to persons or entities with an average financial condition, adequate collateral margins, adequate cash flow to service long-term debt, and net worth comprised mainly of fixed assets are included in this category. These entities are minimally profitable now, with projections indicating continued profitability into the foreseeable future. Closely held corporations or businesses where a majority of the profits are withdrawn by the owners or paid in dividends are included in this rating category. Overall, these loans are basically sound.

• Risk rating 4 – Watch. Borrowers who have marginal cash flow, marginal profitability or have experienced an unprofitable year and a declining financial condition characterize these loans. The borrower has in the past satisfactorily handled debts with the Bank, but in recent months has either been late, delinquent in making payments, or made sporadic payments. While the Bank continues to be adequately secured, margins have decreased or are decreasing, despite the borrower’s continued satisfactory condition. Other characteristics of borrowers in this class include inadequate credit information, weakness of financial statement and repayment capacity, but with collateral that appears to limit exposure. Included in this category are loans to borrowers in industries that are experiencing elevated risk.

• Risk rating 5 – Other Loans Especially Mentioned (“OLEM”). A loan criticized as OLEM has potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in the institution’s credit position at some future date. OLEM assets are not adversely classified and do not expose the institution to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification.

• Risk rating 6 – Substandard. A loan classified as substandard is inadequately protected by the sound worth and paying capacity of the borrower or the collateral pledged. Loss potential, while existing in the aggregate amount of substandard loans, does not have to exist in individual assets.

• Risk rating 7 – Doubtful. A loan classified as doubtful has all the weaknesses inherent in a loan classified as substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable. These are poor quality loans in which neither the collateral, if any, nor the financial condition of the borrower presently ensure collectability in full in a reasonable period of time; in fact, there is permanent impairment in the collateral securing the loan.

• Risk rating 8 – Loss. Assets classified as loss are considered uncollectible and of such little value that the continuance as bankable assets is not warranted. This classification does not mean that the asset has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but rather, it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off this basically worthless asset, even though partial recovery may occur in the future. This classification is based upon current facts, not probabilities. Assets classified as loss should be charged-off in the period in which they became uncollectible.

Loans may be classified, but not considered impaired, due to one of the following reasons: (1) The Company has established minimum dollar amount thresholds for loan impairment testing. All loans over $2.0 million that are rated 5 – 8 are individually assessed for impairment on a quarterly basis. Loans rated 5 – 8 that fall under the threshold amount are not individually tested for impairment and therefore are not included in impaired loans; (2) of the loans that are above the threshold amount and tested for impairment, after testing, some are considered to not be impaired and are not included in impaired loans.

The following is a summary of the purchased credit impaired loans acquired in the GHI and BOC acquisitions during the first quarter of 2017 as of the date of acquisition:

	GHI		BOC
	(In thousands)
Contractually required principal and interest at acquisition	$	22,379	$	18,586
Non-accretable difference (expected losses and foregone interest)		4,462		2,811
Cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition		17,917		15,775
Accretable yield		2,071		1,043
Basis in purchased credit impaired loans at acquisition	$	15,846	$	14,732

Changes in the carrying amount of the accretable yield for purchased credit impaired loans were as follows for the three-month period ended March 31, 2017 for the Company’s acquisitions:

	Accretable Yield			Carrying Amount of Loans
	(In thousands)
Balance at beginning of period	$	38,212		$	159,564
Reforecasted future interest payments for loan pools		1,988			—
Accretion recorded to interest income		(4,603	)		4,603
Acquisitions of GHI and BOC		3,114			30,578
Adjustment to yield		286			—
Transfers to foreclosed assets held for sale		—			(278	)
Payments received, net		—			(31,266	)
Balance at end of period	$	38,997		$	163,201

The loan pools were evaluated by the Company and are currently forecasted to have a slower run-off than originally expected. As a result, the Company has reforecast the total accretable yield expectations for those loan pools by $2.0 million. This updated forecast does not change the expected weighted average yields on the loan pools.

During the 2017 impairment tests on the estimated cash flows of loans, the Company established that several loan pools were determined to have a materially projected credit improvement. As a result of this improvement, the Company will recognize approximately $286,000 as an additional adjustment to yield over the weighted average life of the loans.

Core deposit and other intangible amortization expense was approximately $804,000 and $845,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Including all of the mergers completed as of March 31, 2017, the Company’s estimated amortization expense of core deposits and other intangibles for each of the years 2017 through 2021 is approximately: 2017 – $3.3 million; 2018 – $3.5 million; 2019 – $3.4 million; 2020 – $2.8 million; 2021 – $2.7 million.

Total	$	60,826	$	60,826

The Company holds $60.8 million of trust preferred securities which are currently callable without penalty based on the terms of the specific agreements. The trust preferred securities are tax-advantaged issues that qualify for Tier 1 capital treatment subject to certain limitations. Distributions on these securities are included in interest expense. Each of the trusts is a statutory business trust organized for the sole purpose of issuing trust securities and investing the proceeds in the Company’s subordinated debentures, the sole asset of each trust. The trust preferred securities of each trust represent preferred beneficial interests in the assets of the respective trusts and are subject to mandatory redemption upon payment of the subordinated debentures held by the trust. The Company wholly owns the common securities of each trust. Each trust’s ability to pay amounts due on the trust preferred securities is solely dependent upon the Company making payment on the related subordinated debentures. The Company’s obligations under the subordinated securities and other relevant trust agreements, in aggregate, constitute a full and unconditional guarantee by the Company of each respective trust’s obligations under the trust securities issued by each respective trust.

14.  Common Stock, Compensation Plans and Other

Common Stock

On April 21, 2016 at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Company, the shareholders approved, as proposed in the Proxy Statement, an amendment to the Company’s Restated Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from 100,000,000 to 200,000,000.

The Company also has the authority to issue up to 5,500,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share under the Company’s Restated Articles of Incorporation.

On April 21, 2016, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a two-for-one stock split to be paid in the form of a 100% stock dividend on June 8, 2016 (the “Payment Date”) to shareholders of record at the close of business on May 18, 2016. The additional shares were distributed by the Company’s transfer agent, Computershare, and the Company’s common stock began trading on a split-adjusted basis on the NASDAQ Global Select Market on or about June 9, 2016. All previously reported share and per share data included in filings subsequent to the Payment Date are restated to reflect the retroactive effect of this two-for-one stock split.

Stock Compensation Plans

The Company has a stock option and performance incentive plan known as the Amended and Restated 2006 Stock Option and Performance Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The purpose of the Plan is to attract and retain highly qualified officers, directors, key employees, and other persons, and to motivate those persons to improve the Company’s business results. On April 21, 2016 at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Company, the shareholders approved, as proposed in the Proxy Statement, an amendment to the Plan to increase the number of shares of the Company’s common stock available for issuance under the Plan by 2,000,000 shares (split adjusted) to 11,288,000 shares (split adjusted). The Plan provides for the granting of incentive and non-qualified stock options to and other equity awards, including the issuance of restricted shares. As of March 31, 2017, the maximum total number of shares of the Company’s common stock available for issuance under the Plan was 11,288,000 (split adjusted). At March 31, 2017, the Company had approximately 2,490,000 shares of common stock remaining available for future grants and approximately 4,778,000 shares of common stock reserved for issuance pursuant to outstanding awards under the Plan.

The intrinsic value of the stock options outstanding and stock options vested at March 31, 2017 was $26.1 million and $12.6 million, respectively. Total unrecognized compensation cost, net of income tax benefit, related to non-vested stock option awards, which are expected to be recognized over the vesting periods, was approximately $5.9 million as of March 31, 2017. For the first three months of 2017, the Company has expensed approximately $559,000 for the non-vested awards.

The table below summarizes the stock option transactions under the Plan at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 and changes during the three-month period and year then ended:

Stock-based compensation expense for stock-based compensation awards granted is based on the grant-date fair value. For stock option awards, the fair value is estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. This model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, changes to which can materially affect the fair value estimate. Additionally, there may be other factors that would otherwise have a significant effect on the value of employee stock options granted but are not considered by the model. Accordingly, while management believes that the Black-Scholes option-pricing model provides a reasonable estimate of fair value, the model does not necessarily provide the best single measure of fair value for the Company’s employee stock options. No options were granted during the three months ended March 31, 2017. The weighted-average fair value of options granted during the year ended December 31, 2016 was $5.08 per share (split adjusted). The fair value of each option granted is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model based on the weighted-average assumptions for expected dividend yield, expected stock price volatility, risk-free interest rate, and expected life of options granted.

16.  Significant Estimates and Concentrations of Credit Risks

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require disclosure of certain significant estimates and current vulnerabilities due to certain concentrations. Estimates related to the allowance for loan losses and certain concentrations of credit risk are reflected in Note 5, while deposit concentrations are reflected in Note 8.

The Company’s primary market areas are in Arkansas, Florida, South Alabama and New York. The Company primarily grants loans to customers located within these markets unless the borrower has an established relationship with the Company.

The diversity of the Company’s economic base tends to provide a stable lending environment. Although the Company has a loan portfolio that is diversified in both industry and geographic area, a substantial portion of its debtors’ ability to honor their contracts is dependent upon real estate values, tourism demand and the economic conditions prevailing in its market areas.

Although the Company has a diversified loan portfolio, at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, commercial real estate loans represented 60.6% and 59.1% of total loans receivable, respectively, and 330.2% and 328.9% of total stockholders’ equity, respectively. Residential real estate loans represented 24.2% and 23.0% of total loans receivable and 131.7% and 127.8% of total stockholders’ equity at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

Approximately 85.9% of the Company’s total loans and 86.5% of the Company’s real estate loans as of March 31, 2017, are to borrowers whose collateral is located in Alabama, Arkansas, Florida and New York, the states in which the Company has its branch locations.

35

Although general economic conditions in our market areas have improved, both nationally and locally, over the past three years and have shown signs of continued improvement, financial institutions still face circumstances and challenges which, in some cases, have resulted and could potentially result, in large declines in the fair values of investments and other assets, constraints on liquidity and significant credit quality problems, including severe volatility in the valuation of real estate and other collateral supporting loans. The financial statements have been prepared using values and information currently available to the Company.

Any future volatility in the economy could cause the values of assets and liabilities recorded in the financial statements to change rapidly, resulting in material future adjustments in asset values, the allowance for loan losses and capital that could negatively impact the Company’s ability to meet regulatory capital requirements and maintain sufficient liquidity.

17.  Commitments and Contingencies

In the ordinary course of business, the Company makes various commitments and incurs certain contingent liabilities to fulfill the financing needs of their customers. These commitments and contingent liabilities include lines of credit and commitments to extend credit and issue standby letters of credit. The Company applies the same credit policies and standards as they do in the lending process when making these commitments. The collateral obtained is based on the assessed creditworthiness of the borrower.

At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, commitments to extend credit of $1.96 billion and $1.82 billion, respectively, were outstanding. A percentage of these balances are participated out to other banks; therefore, the Company can call on the participating banks to fund future draws. Since some of these commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amount does not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

Outstanding standby letters of credit are contingent commitments issued by the Company, generally to guarantee the performance of a customer in third-party borrowing arrangements. The term of the guarantee is dependent upon the creditworthiness of the borrower, some of which are long-term. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, commercial real estate and residential real estate. Management uses the same credit policies in granting lines of credit as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments. The maximum amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these guarantees at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, is $43.6 million and $41.1 million, respectively.

The Company and/or its bank subsidiary have various unrelated legal proceedings, most of which involve loan foreclosure activity pending, which, in the aggregate, are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations or cash flows of the Company and its subsidiary.

18.  Regulatory Matters

The Bank is subject to a legal limitation on dividends that can be paid to the parent company without prior approval of the applicable regulatory agencies. Arkansas bank regulators have specified that the maximum dividend limit state banks may pay to the parent company without prior approval is 75% of the current year earnings plus 75% of the retained net earnings of the preceding year. Since the Bank is also under supervision of the Federal Reserve, it is further limited if the total of all dividends declared in any calendar year by the Bank exceeds the Bank’s net profits to date for that year combined with its retained net profits for the preceding two years. During the first quarter of 2017, the Company requested approximately $12.6 million in regular dividends from its banking subsidiary. This dividend is equal to approximately 26.0% of the Company’s banking subsidiary’s first quarter 2017 earnings.

36

The Company’s banking subsidiary is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Company’s assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company’s capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors. Furthermore, the Company’s regulators could require adjustments to regulatory capital not reflected in the consolidated financial statements.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of total, common Tier 1 equity and Tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined) and of Tier 1 capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). Management believes that, as of March 31, 2017, the Company meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.

The Federal Reserve Board’s risk-based capital guidelines include the definitions for (1) a well-capitalized institution, (2) an adequately-capitalized institution, and (3) an undercapitalized institution. Under Basel III, the criteria for a well-capitalized institution are now: a 6.5% “common equity Tier 1 risk-based capital” ratio, a 5% “Tier 1 leverage capital” ratio, an 8% “Tier 1 risk-based capital” ratio, and a 10% “total risk-based capital” ratio. As of March 31, 2017, the Bank met the capital standards for a well-capitalized institution. The Company’s “common equity Tier 1 risk-based capital” ratio, “Tier 1 leverage capital” ratio, “Tier 1 risk-based capital” ratio, and “total risk-based capital” ratio were 11.39%, 10.88%, 12.06%, and 12.98%, respectively, as of March 31, 2017.

19.  Additional Cash Flow Information

In connection with the GHI acquisition, accounted for using the purchase method, the Company acquired approximately $398.1 million in assets, including $41.0 million in cash and cash equivalents, assumed $345.0 million in liabilities, issued 2,738,038 shares of its common stock valued at approximately $77.5 million as of February 23, 2017, and paid approximately $18.5 million in cash in exchange for all outstanding shares of GHI common stock.

In connection with the BOC acquisition, accounted for using the purchase method, the Company acquired approximately $178.1 million in assets, including $4.6 million in cash and cash equivalents, assumed $170.1 million in liabilities, issued no equity and paid of approximately $4.2 million in cash. As a result, the Company recorded a bargain purchase gain of $3.8 million.

The following is a summary of the Company’s additional cash flow information during the three-month periods ended:

	March 31,
	2017		2016
	(In thousands)
Interest paid	$	2,209	$	7,140
Income taxes paid		—		1,010
Assets acquired by foreclosure		2,041		4,219

20.  Financial Instruments

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value measurements must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. There is a hierarchy of three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1	Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2	Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities

37

Level 3 Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities

Available-for-sale securities are the only material instruments valued on a recurring basis which are held by the Company at fair value. The Company does not have any Level 1 securities. Primarily all of the Company’s securities are considered to be Level 2 securities. These Level 2 securities consist primarily of U.S. government-sponsored enterprises, mortgage-backed securities plus state and political subdivisions. For these securities, the Company obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the bond’s terms and conditions, among other things. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, Level 3 securities were immaterial. In addition, there were no material transfers between hierarchy levels during 2017 and 2016.

The Company reviews the prices supplied by the independent pricing service, as well as their underlying pricing methodologies, for reasonableness and to ensure such prices are aligned with traditional pricing matrices. In general, the Company does not purchase investment portfolio securities with complicated structures. Pricing for the Company’s investment securities is fairly generic and is easily obtained.

Impaired loans that are collateral dependent are the only material financial assets valued on a non-recurring basis which are held by the Company at fair value. Loan impairment is reported when full payment under the loan terms is not expected. Impaired loans are carried at the net realizable value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. A portion of the allowance for loan losses is allocated to impaired loans if the value of such loans is deemed to be less than the unpaid balance. If these allocations cause the allowance for loan losses to require an increase, such increase is reported as a component of the provision for loan losses. The fair value of loans with specific allocated losses was $86.9 million and $91.5 million as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. This valuation is considered Level 3, consisting of appraisals of underlying collateral. The Company reversed approximately $165,000 and $68,000 of accrued interest receivable when impaired loans were put on non-accrual status during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Foreclosed assets held for sale are the only material non-financial assets valued on a non-recurring basis which are held by the Company at fair value, less estimated costs to sell. At foreclosure, if the fair value, less estimated costs to sell, of the real estate acquired is less than the Company’s recorded investment in the related loan, a write-down is recognized through a charge to the allowance for loan losses. Additionally, valuations are periodically performed by management and any subsequent reduction in value is recognized by a charge to income. The fair value of foreclosed assets held for sale is estimated using Level 3 inputs based on appraisals of underlying collateral. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the fair value of foreclosed assets held for sale, less estimated costs to sell, was $17.3 million and $16.0 million, respectively.

Foreclosed assets held for sale with a carrying value of approximately $2.1 million were remeasured during the three months ended March 31, 2017, resulting in a write-down of approximately $812,000.

Regulatory guidelines require us to reevaluate the fair value of foreclosed assets held for sale on at least an annual basis. Our policy is to comply with the regulatory guidelines.

The significant unobservable (Level 3) inputs used in the fair value measurement of collateral for collateral-dependent impaired loans and foreclosed assets primarily relate to customized discounting criteria applied to the customer’s reported amount of collateral. The amount of the collateral discount depends upon the condition and marketability of the underlying collateral. As the Company’s primary objective in the event of default would be to monetize the collateral to settle the outstanding balance of the loan, less marketable collateral would receive a larger discount. During the reported periods, collateral discounts ranged from 20% to 50% for commercial and residential real estate collateral.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating fair values of financial instruments as disclosed in these notes:

Cash and cash equivalents and federal funds sold – For these short-term instruments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Investment securities – held-to-maturity – These securities consist primarily of mortgage-backed securities plus state and political subdivisions. For these securities, the Company obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the bond’s terms and conditions, among other things.

Loans receivable, net of impaired loans and allowance – For variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are assumed to approximate the carrying amounts. The fair values for fixed-rate loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality. Loan fair value estimates include judgments regarding future expected loss experience and risk characteristics. Fair values for acquired loans are based on a discounted cash flow methodology that considers factors including the type of loan and related collateral, classification status, fixed or variable interest rate, term of loan, current discount rates and whether or not the loan is amortizing. Loans are grouped together according to similar characteristics and are treated in the aggregate when applying various valuation techniques. The discount rates used for loans are based on current market rates for new originations of comparable loans and include adjustments for liquidity concerns. The discount rate does not include a factor for credit losses as that has been included in the estimated cash flows.

FDIC indemnification asset – Although this asset is a contractual receivable from the FDIC, there is no effective interest rate. The Bank will collect this asset over the next several years. The amount ultimately collected will depend on the timing and amount of collections and charge-offs on the acquired assets covered by the loss sharing agreement.

Accrued interest receivable – The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable approximates its fair value.

Deposits and securities sold under agreements to repurchase – The fair values of demand deposits, savings deposits and securities sold under agreements to repurchase are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand and, therefore, approximate their carrying amounts. The fair values for time deposits are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that utilizes interest rates currently being offered on time deposits with similar contractual maturities.

FHLB and other borrowed funds – For short-term instruments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value. The fair value of long-term debt is estimated based on the current rates available to the Company for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities.

Accrued interest payable – The carrying amount of accrued interest payable approximates its fair value.

Subordinated debentures – The fair value of subordinated debentures is estimated using the rates that would be charged for subordinated debentures of similar remaining maturities.

Commitments to extend credit, letters of credit and lines of credit – The fair value of commitments is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the counterparties. For fixed-rate loan commitments, fair value also considers the difference between current levels of interest rates and the committed rates. The fair values of letters of credit and lines of credit are based on fees currently charged for similar agreements or on the estimated cost to terminate or otherwise settle the obligations with the counterparties at the reporting date. The fair value of these commitments is not material.

39

The following table presents the estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments. The fair values of certain of these instruments were calculated by discounting expected cash flows, which involves significant judgments by management and uncertainties. Fair value is the estimated amount at which financial assets or liabilities could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties other than in a forced or liquidation sale. Because no market exists for certain of these financial instruments and because management does not intend to sell these financial instruments, the Company does not know whether the fair values shown below represent values at which the respective financial instruments could be sold individually or in the aggregate.

21.  Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). ASU 2014-09 provides guidance that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which defers the effective date of this standard to annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017; however, early adoption is permitted for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, which amends certain aspects of the guidance in ASU 2014-09 (FASB’s new revenue standard) on (1) identifying performance obligations and (2) licensing. ASU 2014-10’s effective date and transition provisions are aligned with the requirements in ASU 2014-09. In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients, which amends certain aspects of the FASB’s new revenue standard, ASU 2014-09. ASU 2016-12’s effective date and transition provisions are aligned with the requirements in ASU 2014-09

The guidance issued in ASU 2014-09, ASU 2015-14, ASU 2016-10 and ASU 2016-12 permit two implementation approaches, one requiring retrospective application of the new standard with restatement of prior years and one requiring prospective application of the new standard with disclosure of results under old standards. The Company plans to adopt the new standard effective January 1, 2018 and apply it prospectively. We are currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements. Only a portion of our revenues are impacted by this guidance because the guidance does not apply to revenue on contracts accounted for under the financial instruments or insurance contracts standards. Our evaluation process includes, but is not limited to, identifying contracts within the scope of the guidance, reviewing and documenting our accounting for these contracts, and identifying and determining the accounting for any related contract costs. We are also identifying and implementing changes to the Company’s business processes, systems and controls to support adoption of the new standard in 2018.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-12, Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period, impacting FASB ASC 860, Transfers and Servicing. Generally, an award with a performance target requires an employee also render service once the performance target is achieved. In some cases, however, the terms of an award may provide that the performance target could be achieved after an employee completes the requisite service period. The amendments in this update require that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. An entity should apply this guidance as it relates to awards with performance conditions that affect vesting to account for such awards. As such, the performance target should not be reflected in estimating the grant-date fair value of the award. Compensation cost should be recognized in the period in which it becomes probable that the performance target will be achieved and should represent the compensation cost attributable to the period for which the service has already been rendered. The amendments in this update became effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company adopted the new guidance on the consolidated financial statements, effective January 1, 2016, which made no impact to the Company’s financial position, results of operations or its financial statement disclosures.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis, which amends the consolidation requirements of ASU 810 by changing the consolidation analysis required under GAAP. The revised guidance amends the consolidation analysis based on certain fee arrangements or relationships to the reporting entity and, for limited partnerships, requires entities to consider the limited partner’s rights relative to the general partner. ASU 2015-02 became effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company adopted the new guidance on the consolidated financial statements, effective January 1, 2016, which made no impact to the Company’s financial position, results of operations or its financial statement disclosures.

In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-16, Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments. ASU 2015-16 requires entities to recognize measurement period adjustments during the reporting period in which the adjustments are determined. The income effects, if any, of a measurement period adjustment are cumulative and are to be reported in the period in which the adjustment to a provisional amount is determined. Also, ASU 2015-16 requires presentation on the face of the income statement or in the notes, the effect of the measurement period adjustment as if the adjustment had been recognized at acquisition date. ASU 2015-16 is effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2015 for public business entities and should be applied prospectively to measurement period adjustments that occur after the effective date. The Company adopted the new guidance on the consolidated financial statements, effective January 1, 2016, which made no impact to the Company’s financial position, results of operations or its financial statement disclosures.

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. Changes to the current GAAP model primarily affect the accounting for equity investments, financial liabilities under the fair value option, and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. In addition, ASU 2016-01 clarifies guidance related to the valuation allowance assessment when recognizing deferred tax assets resulting from unrealized losses on available-for-sale securities. The new guidance is effective for annual reporting period and interim reporting periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. Management is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance to the Company’s financial statements, but does not anticipate the guidance to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations as the Company’s equity investments are immaterial. However, the amendments will have an impact on certain items that are disclosed at fair value that are not currently utilizing the exit price notion when measuring fair value. At this time, the Company cannot quantify the change in the fair value of such disclosures since the Company is currently evaluating the full impact of the standards and is in the planning stages of developing appropriate procedures and processes to comply with the disclosure requirements of such amendments. The current accounting policies and procedures will be adjusted after the Company has fully evaluated the standard to comply with the accounting changes mentioned above. For additional information on fair value of assets and liabilities, see Note 20.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The amendments in ASU 2016-02 address several aspects of lease accounting with the significant change being the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities for leases previously classified as operating leases. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application of the amendments in ASU 2016-02 is permitted for all entities. The Company has several lease agreements for which the amendments will require the Company to recognize a lease liability to make lease payments and a right-of-use asset which will represent its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. The Company is currently reviewing the amendments to ensure it is fully compliant by the adoption date and doesn’t expect to early adopt. The impact is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations as the Company does not have a material amount of lease agreements. In addition, the Company will change its current accounting policies to comply with the amendments with such changes as mentioned above. For additional information on the Company’s leases, see Note 18 “Leases” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions for both public and nonpublic entities, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company adopted the amendments effective January 1, 2017. The Company has a stock-based compensation plan for which the ASU 2016-09 guidance results in the associated excess tax benefits or deficiencies being recognized as tax expense or benefit in the income statement instead of the previous accounting treatment, which requires excess tax benefits to be recognized as an adjustment to additional paid-in capital and excess tax deficiencies to be recognized as either an offset to accumulated excess tax benefits, if any, or to the income statement. In addition, such amounts are now classified as an operating activity in the statement of cash flows instead of the current accounting treatment, which required it to be classified as both an operating and a financing activity. The Company’s stock-based compensation plan has not historically generated material amounts of excess tax benefits or deficiencies and, therefore, the Company does not anticipate a material change in the Company’s financial position or results of operation as a result of the adoption of ASU 2016-09. The Company has implemented the new processes which did not result in a significant change. For additional information on the stock-based compensation plan, see Note 14.

In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-11, Revenue Recognition (Topic 605) and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Rescission of SEC Guidance Because of Accounting Standards Updates 2014-09 and 2014-16 Pursuant to Staff Announcements at the March 3, 2016 EITF Meeting (SEC Update), which rescinds certain SEC guidance from the FASB Accounting Standards Codification in response to announcements made by the SEC staff at the Emerging Issues Task Force’s (“EITF”) March 3, 2016, meeting. ASU 2016-11 is effective at the same time as ASU 2014-09 and ASU 2014-16. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, ASU 2016-11 will have on its financial position, results of operations, and its financial statement disclosures. Our evaluation process includes, but is not limited to, identifying transactions and accounts within the scope of the guidance, reviewing our accounting and disclosures for these transactions and accounts, and identifying and implementing any necessary changes to our accounting and disclosures as a result of the guidance. We are also identifying and implementing changes to the Company’s business processes, systems and controls to support adoption of the new standard.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which amends the FASB’s guidance on the impairment of financial instruments. The amendments in ASU 2016-13 replace the incurred loss model with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses over the life of the loan and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to calculate credit loss estimates, known as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model. Under the new guidance, an entity recognizes as an allowance its estimate of expected credit losses, which the FASB believes will result in more timely recognition of such losses. ASU 2016-13 is also intended to reduce the complexity of U.S. GAAP by decreasing the number of credit impairment models that entities use to account for debt instruments. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The allowance for loan losses is a material estimate of the Company and given the change from an incurred loss model to a methodology that considers the credit loss over the life of the loan, there is the potential for an increase in the allowance for loan losses at adoption date. The Company is anticipating a significant change in the processes and procedures to calculate the allowance for loan losses, including changes in assumptions and estimates to consider expected credit losses over the life of the loan versus the current accounting practice that utilizes the incurred loss model. The Company will also develop new procedures for determining an allowance for credit losses relating to held-to-maturity investment securities. In addition, the current accounting policy and procedures for other-than-temporary impairment on available-for-sale investment securities will be replaced with an allowance approach. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, ASU 2016-13 will have on its financial position and results of operations and currently does not know or cannot reasonably quantify the impact of the adoption of the amendments as a result of the complexity and extensive changes from the amendments. It is too early to assess the impact that the implementation of this guidance will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, however the Company has begun developing processes and procedures to ensure it is fully compliant with the amendments at the required adoption date. Among other things, we have initiated data gathering and assessment to support forecasting of asset quality, loan balances, and portfolio net charge-offs and have developed an in-house data warehouse as well as developed asset quality forecast models in preparation for the implementation of this standard. For additional information on the allowance for loan losses, see Note 5.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which amends the guidance in ASC 230 on the classification of certain cash receipts and payments in the statement of cash flows. The primary purpose of ASU 2016-15 is to reduce the diversity in practice that has resulted from the lack of consistent principles on this topic. ASU 2016-15’s amendments add or clarify guidance on eight cash flow issues including debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs; settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments or other debt instruments with coupon interest rates that are insignificant in relation to the effective interest rate of the borrowing; contingent consideration payments made after a business combination; proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims; proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies; including bank-owned life insurance policies; distributions received from equity method investees; beneficial interests in securitization transactions and separately identifiable cash flows and application of the predominance principle. ASU 2016-15 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted and the guidance must be applied retrospectively to all periods presented but may be applied prospectively from the earliest date practicable if retrospective application would be impracticable. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, ASU 2016-15 will have on its financial position, results of operations, and its financial statement disclosures. Our evaluation process includes, but is not limited to, identifying transactions and accounts within the scope of the guidance, reviewing our accounting and disclosures for these transactions and accounts, and identifying and implementing any necessary changes to our accounting and disclosures as a result of the guidance. We are also identifying and implementing changes to the Company’s business processes, systems and controls to support adoption of the new standard.

43

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory, which requires an entity to recognize the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs. The amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017, and should be applied on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment directly to retained earnings at the beginning period of adoption. Early adoption is permitted in the first interim period of an annual reporting period for which financial statements have not been issued. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, ASU 2016-16 will have on its financial position, results of operations, and its financial statement disclosure. Our evaluation process includes, but is not limited to, identifying transactions and accounts within the scope of the guidance, reviewing our accounting and disclosures for these transactions and accounts, and identifying and implementing any necessary changes to our accounting and disclosures as a result of the guidance. We are also identifying and implementing changes to the Company’s business processes, systems and controls to support adoption of the new standard.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force), which clarifies how entities should present restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows, and, as a result, entities will no longer present transfers between cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows. An entity with a material balance of restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents must disclose information about the nature of the restrictions. The new standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted and the new guidance must be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, ASU 2016-18 will have on its financial position, results of operations, and its financial statement disclosure. Our evaluation process includes, but is not limited to, identifying transactions and accounts within the scope of the guidance, reviewing our accounting and disclosures for these transactions and accounts, and identifying and implementing any necessary changes to our accounting and disclosures as a result of the guidance. We are also identifying and implementing changes to the Company’s business processes, systems and controls to support adoption of the new standard.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, which provides guidance to entities to assist with evaluating when a set of transferred assets and activities (collectively, the “set”) is a business and provides a screen to determine when a set is not a business. Under the new guidance, when substantially all of the fair value of gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset, or group of similar assets, the assets acquired would not represent a business. Also, to be considered a business, an acquisition would have to include an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to produce outputs. The new standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017, and should be applied on a prospective basis to any transactions occurring within the period of adoption. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual periods in which the financial statements have not been issued. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, ASU 2017-01 will have on its financial position, results of operations, and its financial statement disclosure. Our evaluation process includes, but is not limited to, identifying transactions and accounts within the scope of the guidance, reviewing our accounting and disclosures for these transactions and accounts, and identifying and implementing any necessary changes to our accounting and disclosures as a result of the guidance. We are also identifying and implementing changes to the Company’s business processes, systems and controls to support adoption of the new standard.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-03, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections (Topic 250) and Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323). The amendments in the update relate to SEC paragraphs pursuant to Staff Announcements at the September 22, 2016 and November 17, 2016 EITF meetings related to disclosure of the impact of recently issued accounting standards. The SEC staff’s view that a registrant should evaluate ASC updates that have not yet been adopted to determine the appropriate financial disclosures about the potential material effects of the updates on the financial statements when adopted. If a registrant does not know or cannot reasonably estimate the impact of an update, then in addition to making a statement to that effect, the registrant should consider additional qualitative financial statement disclosures to assist the reader in assessing the significance of the impact. The staff expects the additional qualitative disclosures to include a description of the effect of the accounting policies expected to be applied compared to current accounting policies. Also, the registrant should describe the status of its process to implement the new standards and the significant implementation matters yet to be addressed. The amendments specifically addressed recent ASC amendments to ASU 2016-02, Leases, and ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, although, the amendments apply to any subsequent amendments to guidance in the ASC. The Company adopted the amendments in this update during the fourth quarter of 2016 and appropriate disclosures have been included in this Note for each recently issued accounting standard.

44

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which eliminates the requirement to determine the fair value of individual assets and liabilities of a reporting unit to measure goodwill impairment. Under the amendments in the new ASU, goodwill impairment testing will be performed by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount and recognizing an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The new standard is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and should be applied on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted for annual or interim goodwill impairment testing performed after January 1, 2017. The Company has goodwill from prior business combinations and performs an annual impairment test or more frequently if changes or circumstances occur that would more-likely-than-not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying value. During 2016, the Company performed its impairment assessment and determined the fair value of the aggregated reporting units exceed the carrying value, such that the Company’s goodwill was not considered impaired. Although the Company cannot anticipate future goodwill impairment assessments, based on the most recent assessment it is unlikely that an impairment amount would need to be calculated and, therefore, does not anticipate a material impact from these amendments to the Company’s financial position and results of operations. The current accounting policies and processes are not anticipated to change, except for the elimination of the Step 2 analysis.

In February 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-05, Other Income: Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets, which clarifies the scope of the Board’s guidance on nonfinancial asset derecognition (ASC 610-20) as well as the accounting for partial sales of nonfinancial assets. The ASU conforms the derecognition guidance on nonfinancial assets with the model for transactions in the new revenue standard (ASC 606, as amended). The ASU requires an entity to derecognize the nonfinancial asset or in-substance nonfinancial asset in a partial sale transaction when (1) the entity ceases to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary under ASC 810 and (2) control of the asset is transferred in accordance with ASC 606. The entity therefore has to consider repurchase agreements (e.g., a call option to repurchase the ownership interest in a subsidiary) in its assessment and may not be able to derecognize the nonfinancial assets, even though it no longer has a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary in accordance with ASC 810. The ASU illustrates the application of this guidance in ASC 610-20-55-15 and 55-16. The effective date of the new guidance is aligned with the requirements in the new revenue standard, which is effective for public entities for annual reporting periods (including interim reporting periods within those periods) beginning after December 15, 2017, and for nonpublic entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. If the entity decides to early adopt the ASU’s guidance, it must also early adopt ASC 606 (and vice versa). The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, ASU 2017-05 will have on its financial position, results of operations, and its financial statement disclosures. Our evaluation process includes, but is not limited to, identifying transactions and accounts within the scope of the guidance, reviewing our accounting and disclosures for these transactions and accounts, and identifying and implementing any necessary changes to our accounting and disclosures as a result of the guidance. We are also identifying and implementing changes to the Company’s business processes, systems and controls to support adoption of the new standard.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-08, Receivables – Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Topic 310): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities, which amends the amortization period for certain purchased callable debt securities held at a premium. This ASU will shorten the amortization period for the premium to be amortized to the earliest call date. This ASU does not apply to securities held at a discount, which will continue to be amortized to maturity. This ASU is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The guidance should be applied using a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment directly to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, ASU 2017-08 will have on its financial position, results of operations, and its financial statement disclosures. Our evaluation process includes, but is not limited to, identifying transactions and accounts within the scope of the guidance, reviewing our accounting and disclosures for these transactions and accounts, and identifying and implementing any necessary changes to our accounting and disclosures as a result of the guidance. We are also identifying and implementing changes to the Company’s business processes, systems and controls to support adoption of the new standard.

22.  Subsequent Events

Subordinated Debt Issuance – On April 3, 2017 the Company completed an underwritten public offering of $300 million in aggregate principal amount of its 5.625% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes due 2027 (the “Notes”). The Notes were issued at 99.997% of par, resulting in net proceeds, after underwriting discounts, of approximately $297.2 million. The Notes are unsecured, subordinated debt obligations of the Company and will mature on April 15, 2027. From and including the date of issuance to, but excluding April 15, 2022, the Notes will bear interest at an initial rate of 5.625% per annum. From and including April 15, 2022 to, but excluding the maturity date or earlier redemption, the Notes will bear interest at a floating rate equal to three-month LIBOR as calculated on each applicable date of determination plus 3.575%; provided, however, that in the event three-month LIBOR is less than zero, then three-month LIBOR shall be deemed to be zero.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Audit Committee, Board of Directors and Stockholders

Home BancShares, Inc.

Conway, Arkansas

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of Home BancShares, Inc. (the Company) as of March 31, 2017, and the related condensed consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholder’s equity and cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016. These interim financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2016, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 28, 2017, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2016, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Item 2: MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 28, 2017, which includes the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016. Unless the context requires otherwise, the terms “Company”, “us”, “we”, and “our” refer to Home BancShares, Inc. on a consolidated basis.

General

We are a bank holding company headquartered in Conway, Arkansas, offering a broad array of financial services through our wholly-owned bank subsidiary, Centennial Bank (sometimes referred to as “Centennial” or the “Bank”). As of March 31, 2017, we had, on a consolidated basis, total assets of $10.72 billion, loans receivable, net of $7.77 billion, total deposits of $7.57 billion, and stockholders’ equity of $1.44 billion.

We generate most of our revenue from interest on loans and investments, service charges, and mortgage banking income. Deposits and Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) and other borrowed funds are our primary source of funding. Our largest expenses are interest on our funding sources, salaries and related employee benefits and occupancy and equipment. We measure our performance by calculating our return on average common equity, return on average assets and net interest margin. We also measure our performance by our efficiency ratio, which is calculated by dividing non-interest expense less amortization of core deposit intangibles by the sum of net interest income on a tax equivalent basis and non-interest income.

Overview

Results of Operations for Three Months Ended March 31, 2017 and 2016

Our net income increased $5.4 million, or 13.1%, to $46.9 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2017, from $41.4 million for the same period in 2016. On a diluted earnings per share basis, our earnings were $0.33 per share and $0.29 per share (split adjusted) for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Excluding the $3.8 million of gain on acquisition and $6.7 million of merger expenses, net income was $47.4 million, and diluted earnings per share was $0.33 per share for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The $6.0 million increase in net income, excluding gain on acquisitions and merger expenses, is primarily associated with additional net interest income largely resulting from our acquisitions and our organic loan growth plus a decrease in provision for loan losses in first quarter of 2017, growth in non-interest income and the reduced amortization of the indemnification asset when compared to the same period in 2016. These improvements were partially offset by an increase in the costs associated with the asset growth when compared to the same period in 2016.

Our GAAP net interest margin decreased from 4.81% for the three-month period ended March 31, 2016 to 4.70% for the three-month period ended March 31, 2017. The yield on loans was 5.66% and 5.80% for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, we recognized $7.7 million and $10.7 million in total net accretion for acquired loans and deposits. The non-GAAP margin excluding accretion income was increased at 4.32% and 4.22% for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Additionally, the non-GAAP yield on loans excluding accretion income was also slightly increased at 5.19% and 5.07% for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Consequently, with a growth of the average loan balance of $856.5 million, we experienced a decline in the GAAP yield on loans and net interest margin primarily because the loan growth was approximately at our lower non-GAAP loan yields.

Our efficiency ratio was 40.76% for the three months ended March 31, 2017, compared to 37.50% for the same period in 2016. For the first quarter of 2017, our core efficiency ratio was 36.96%, which is relatively unchanged from the 36.92% reported for first quarter of 2016. The core efficiency ratio is a non-GAAP measure and is calculated by dividing non-interest expense less amortization of core deposit intangibles by the sum of net interest income on a tax equivalent basis and non-interest income excluding non-fundamental items such as merger expenses, FDIC loss share buy-out expense and/or gains and losses.

Our annualized return on average assets was 1.86% for the three months ended March 31, 2017, compared to 1.79% for the same period in 2016. Our annualized return on average common equity was 13.85% for the three months ended March 31, 2017, compared to 13.77% for the same period in 2016. We have been making notable progress in improving the performance of our legacy and acquired franchises, which is reflected in the improvement in our return on average assets and return on average common equity from 2016 to 2017.

Financial Condition as of and for the Period Ended March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016

Our total assets as of March 31, 2017 increased $909.0 million to $10.72 billion from the $9.81 billion reported as of December 31, 2016. Our loan portfolio increased $461.9 million to $7.85 billion as of March 31, 2017, from $7.39 billion as of December 31, 2016. This increase is a result of our acquisitions since December 31, 2016. Stockholders’ equity increased $114.1 million to $1.44 billion as of March 31, 2017, compared to $1.33 billion as of December 31, 2016. The increase in stockholders’ equity is primarily associated with the $77.5 million of common stock issued to the GHI shareholders plus the $34.2 million increase in retained earnings combined with the $610,000 of comprehensive income during the quarter. The annualized improvement in stockholders’ equity for the first three months of 2017 excluding the $77.5 million of common stock issued to the GHI shareholders was 11.2%.

As of March 31, 2017, our non-performing loans decreased to $59.2 million, or 0.75%, of total loans from $63.1 million, or 0.85%, of total loans as of December 31, 2016. The allowance for loan losses as a percent of non-performing loans increased to 135.67% as of March 31, 2017, compared to 126.74% as of December 31, 2016. Non-performing loans from our Arkansas franchise were $26.1 million at March 31, 2017 compared to $28.5 million as of December 31, 2016. Non-performing loans from our Florida franchise were $33.0 million at March 31, 2017 compared to $34.0 million as of December 31, 2016. Non-performing loans from our Alabama franchise were $74,000 at March 31, 2017 compared to $656,000 as of December 31, 2016. There were no non-performing loans from our Centennial CFG franchise.

As of March 31, 2017, our non-performing assets decreased to $76.5 million, or 0.71%, of total assets from $79.1 million, or 0.81%, of total assets as of December 31, 2016. Non-performing assets from our Arkansas franchise were $35.6 million at March 31, 2017 compared to $41.0 million as of December 31, 2016. Non-performing assets from our Florida franchise were $39.8 million at March 31, 2017 compared to $36.8 million as of December 31, 2016. Non-performing assets from our Alabama franchise were $1.1 million at March 31, 2017 compared to $1.2 million as of December 31, 2016. There were no non-performing assets from our Centennial CFG franchise.

Critical Accounting Policies

Overview. We prepare our consolidated financial statements based on the selection of certain accounting policies, generally accepted accounting principles and customary practices in the banking industry. These policies, in certain areas, require us to make significant estimates and assumptions. Our accounting policies are described in detail in the notes to our consolidated financial statements included as part of this document.

We consider a policy critical if (i) the accounting estimate requires assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time of the accounting estimate; and (ii) different estimates that could reasonably have been used in the current period, or changes in the accounting estimate that are reasonably likely to occur from period to period, would have a material impact on our financial statements. Using these criteria, we believe that the accounting policies most critical to us are those associated with our lending practices, including the accounting for the allowance for loan losses, foreclosed assets, investments, intangible assets, income taxes and stock options.

Investments – Available-for-sale. Securities available-for-sale are reported at fair value with unrealized holding gains and losses reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity and other comprehensive income (loss), net of taxes. Securities that are held as available-for-sale are used as a part of our asset/liability management strategy. Securities that may be sold in response to interest rate changes, changes in prepayment risk, the need to increase regulatory capital, and other similar factors are classified as available-for-sale.

Investments – Held-to-Maturity. Securities held-to-maturity, which include any security for which we have the positive intent and ability to hold until maturity, are reported at historical cost adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Premiums and discounts are amortized and accreted, respectively, to interest income using the constant yield method over the period to maturity.

Loans Receivable and Allowance for Loan Losses. Except for loans acquired during our acquisitions, substantially all of our loans receivable are reported at their outstanding principal balance adjusted for any charge-offs, as it is management’s intent to hold them for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff, except for mortgage loans held for sale. Interest income on loans is accrued over the term of the loans based on the principal balance outstanding.

The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged against income. The allowance represents an amount that, in management’s judgment, will be adequate to absorb probable credit losses on identifiable loans that may become uncollectible and probable credit losses inherent in the remainder of the loan portfolio. The amounts of provisions for loan losses are based on management’s analysis and evaluation of the loan portfolio for identification of problem credits, internal and external factors that may affect collectability, relevant credit exposure, particular risks inherent in different kinds of lending, current collateral values and other relevant factors.

50

The allowance consists of allocated and general components. The allocated component relates to loans that are classified as impaired. For those loans that are classified as impaired, an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows, collateral value or observable market price of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan. The general component covers non-classified loans and is based on historical charge-off experience and expected loss given default derived from the bank’s internal risk rating process. Other adjustments may be made to the allowance for pools of loans after an assessment of internal or external influences on credit quality that are not fully reflected in the historical loss or risk rating data.

Loans considered impaired, under FASB ASC 310-10-35, are loans for which, based on current information and events, it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. We apply this policy even if delays or shortfalls in payment are expected to be insignificant. The aggregate amount of impairment of loans is utilized in evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses and amount of provisions thereto. Losses on impaired loans are charged against the allowance for loan losses when in the process of collection it appears likely that such losses will be realized. The accrual of interest on impaired loans is discontinued when, in management’s opinion the collection of interest is doubtful, or generally when loans are 90 days or more past due. When accrual of interest is discontinued, all unpaid accrued interest is reversed. Interest income is subsequently recognized only to the extent cash payments are received in excess of principal due. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

Groups of loans with similar risk characteristics are collectively evaluated for impairment based on the group’s historical loss experience adjusted for changes in trends, conditions and other relevant factors that affect repayment of the loans.

Loans are placed on non-accrual status when management believes that the borrower’s financial condition, after giving consideration to economic and business conditions and collection efforts, is such that collection of interest is doubtful, or generally when loans are 90 days or more past due. Loans are charged against the allowance for loan losses when management believes that the collectability of the principal is unlikely. Accrued interest related to non-accrual loans is generally charged against the allowance for loan losses when accrued in prior years and reversed from interest income if accrued in the current year. Interest income on non-accrual loans may be recognized to the extent cash payments are received, although the majority of payments received are usually applied to principal. Non-accrual loans are generally returned to accrual status when principal and interest payments are less than 90 days past due, the customer has made required payments for at least six months, and we reasonably expect to collect all principal and interest.

Acquisition Accounting and Acquired Loans. We account for our acquisitions under FASB ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, which requires the use of the acquisition method of accounting. All identifiable assets acquired, including loans, are recorded at fair value. No allowance for loan losses related to the acquired loans is recorded on the acquisition date as the fair value of the purchased loans incorporates assumptions regarding credit risk. All purchased loans are recorded at fair value in accordance with the fair value methodology prescribed in FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements. The fair value estimates associated with the loans include estimates related to expected prepayments and the amount and timing of undiscounted expected principal, interest and other cash flows.

Over the life of the purchased credit impaired loans, we continue to estimate cash flows expected to be collected on pools of loans sharing common risk characteristics, which are treated in the aggregate when applying various valuation techniques. We evaluate at each balance sheet date whether the present value of our pools of loans determined using the effective interest rates has decreased and if so, recognize a provision for loan loss in its consolidated statement of income. For any increases in cash flows expected to be collected, we adjust the amount of accretable yield recognized on a prospective basis over the pool’s remaining life.

Foreclosed Assets Held for Sale. Real estate and personal properties acquired through or in lieu of loan foreclosure are to be sold and are initially recorded at fair value at the date of foreclosure, establishing a new cost basis. Valuations are periodically performed by management, and the real estate and personal properties are carried at fair value less costs to sell. Gains and losses from the sale of other real estate and personal properties are recorded in non-interest income, and expenses used to maintain the properties are included in non-interest expenses.

51

Intangible Assets. Intangible assets consist of goodwill and core deposit intangibles. Goodwill represents the excess purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired in business acquisitions. The core deposit intangible represents the excess intangible value of acquired deposit customer relationships as determined by valuation specialists. The core deposit intangibles are being amortized over 48 to 121 months on a straight-line basis. Goodwill is not amortized but rather is evaluated for impairment on at least an annual basis. We perform an annual impairment test of goodwill and core deposit intangibles as required by FASB ASC 350, Intangibles –Goodwill and Other, in the fourth quarter.

Income Taxes. We account for income taxes in accordance with income tax accounting guidance (ASC 740, Income Taxes). The income tax accounting guidance results in two components of income tax expense: current and deferred. Current income tax expense reflects taxes to be paid or refunded for the current period by applying the provisions of the enacted tax law to the taxable income or excess of deductions over revenues. We determine deferred income taxes using the liability (or balance sheet) method. Under this method, the net deferred tax asset or liability is based on the tax effects of the differences between the book and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and enacted changes in tax rates and laws are recognized in the period in which they occur.

Deferred income tax expense results from changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities between periods. Deferred tax assets are recognized if it is more likely than not, based on the technical merits, that the tax position will be realized or sustained upon examination. The term “more likely than not” means a likelihood of more than 50 percent; the terms “examined” and “upon examination” also include resolution of the related appeals or litigation processes, if any. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is initially and subsequently measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. The determination of whether or not a tax position has met the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold considers the facts, circumstances and information available at the reporting date and is subject to the management’s judgment. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of evidence available, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized.

Both we and our subsidiary file consolidated tax returns. Our subsidiary provides for income taxes on a separate return basis, and remits to us amounts determined to be currently payable.

Stock Compensation. In accordance with FASB ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, and FASB ASC 505-50, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees, the fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant. We recognize compensation expense for the grant-date fair value of the option award over the vesting period of the award.

Acquisitions

Acquisition of Giant Holdings, Inc.

On February 23, 2017, the Company completed its acquisition of Giant Holdings, Inc. (“GHI”), parent company of Landmark Bank, N.A. (“Landmark”), pursuant to a previously announced definitive agreement and plan of merger whereby GHI merged with and into HBI and, immediately thereafter, Landmark merged with and into Centennial. The Company paid a purchase price to the GHI shareholders of approximately $96.0 million for the GHI acquisition. Under the terms of the agreement, shareholders of GHI received 2,738,038 shares of its common stock valued at approximately $77.5 million as of February 23, 2017, plus approximately $18.5 million in cash in exchange for all outstanding shares of GHI common stock.

GHI formerly operated six branch locations in the Ft. Lauderdale, Florida area. Including the effects of the purchase accounting adjustments, as of acquisition date, GHI had approximately $398.1 million in total assets, $329.4 million in loans after $6.5 million of loan discounts, and $304.0 million in deposits.

Acquisition of The Bank of Commerce

On February 28, 2017, HBI, parent company of Centennial Bank (“Centennial”), completed its previously announced acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of The Bank of Commerce, a Florida state-chartered bank that operated in the Sarasota, Florida area (“BOC”), pursuant to an acquisition agreement, dated December 1, 2016, by and between HBI and Bank of Commerce Holdings, Inc. (“BCHI”), parent company of BOC. HBI merged BOC with and into Centennial effective as of the close of business on February 28, 2017.

52

The acquisition of BOC was conducted in accordance with the provisions of Section 363 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) pursuant to a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code filed by BCHI with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Florida (the “Bankruptcy Court”). The sale of BOC by BCHI was subject to certain bidding procedures approved by the Bankruptcy Court. On November 14, 2016, the Company submitted an initial bid to purchase the outstanding shares of BOC in accordance with the bidding procedures approved by the Bankruptcy Court. An auction was subsequently conducted on November 16, 2016, and the Company was deemed to be the successful bidder. The Bankruptcy Court entered a final order on December 9, 2016 approving the sale of BOC to the Company pursuant to and in accordance with the acquisition agreement.

Under the terms of the Agreement, HBI paid an aggregate of approximately $4.2 million in cash for the acquisition, which included the purchase of all outstanding shares of BOC common stock, the discounted purchase of certain subordinated debentures issued by BOC from the existing holders of the subordinated debentures, and an expense reimbursement to BCHI for approved administrative claims in connection with the bankruptcy proceeding.

BOC formerly operated three branch locations in the Sarasota, Florida area. Including the effects of the purchase accounting adjustments, as of acquisition date, BOC had approximately $178.1 million in total assets, $118.5 million in loans after $5.8 million of loan discounts, and $139.8 million in deposits.

Termination of Remaining Loss-Share Agreements

Effective July 27, 2016, we reached an agreement terminating our remaining loss-share agreements with the FDIC. Under the terms of the agreement, Centennial made a net payment of $6.6 million to the FDIC as consideration for the early termination of the loss share agreements, and all rights and obligations of Centennial and the FDIC under the loss share agreements, including the clawback provisions and the settlement of loss share and expense reimbursement claims, have been resolved and terminated. This transaction with the FDIC created a one-time acceleration of the indemnification asset plus the negotiated settlement for the true-up liability, and resulted in a negative $3.8 million pre-tax financial impact to the third quarter of 2016. It has and will create a positive financial impact to earnings of approximately $1.5 million annually on a pre-tax basis through the year 2020 as a result of the one-time acceleration of the indemnification asset amortization.

Future Acquisitions

In our continuing evaluation of our growth plans, we believe properly priced bank acquisitions can complement our organic growth and de novo branching growth strategies. In the near term, our principal acquisition focus will be to continue to expand our presence in Arkansas, Florida and Alabama and into other contiguous markets through pursuing both non-FDIC-assisted and FDIC-assisted bank acquisitions. However, as financial opportunities in other market areas arise, we may expand into those areas.

On March 27, 2017, Home BancShares, Inc. and its wholly-owned bank subsidiary, Centennial Bank, an Arkansas state bank (“Centennial”), entered into an acquisition with Stonegate Bank (“Stonegate”). The acquisition agreement provides that Stonegate will merge with and into Centennial (the “Merger”). Under the terms of the acquisition agreement, shareholders of Stonegate will receive, in the aggregate, proceeds from the transaction of approximately $749.8 million, consisting of $50.0 million in cash and $699.7 million of HBI common stock. In addition, the holders of outstanding stock options of Stonegate will receive approximately $28.6 million in cash in connection with the cancellation of their options immediately before the Merger, for a total transaction value of approximately $778.4 million. The number of shares of HBI common stock to be issued to Stonegate shareholders will be determined based on the volume-weighted average closing price per share of HBI common stock for the 20 consecutive trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the closing date (the “Average Closing Price”). In addition, if the Average Closing Price of HBI common stock as of the closing date is equal to $35.19 or greater or $22.52 or less, then the Average Closing Price will be fixed at $35.19 or $22.52, respectively. The acquisition is expected to close late in the fourth quarter of 2017, and is subject to the approval of the shareholders of the Company and Stonegate, regulatory approvals, and other customary conditions set forth in the agreement

As of March 31, 2017, Stonegate had approximately $3.24 billion in total assets, $2.48 billion in loans and $2.72 billion in customer deposits. Stonegate is conducting banking business from 25 locations in key Florida markets with significant presence in Broward and Sarasota counties.

53

We will continue evaluating all types of potential bank acquisitions to determine what is in the best interest of our Company. Our goal in making these decisions is to maximize the return to our investors.

Branches

As opportunities arise, we will continue to open new (commonly referred to as de novo) branches in our current markets and in other attractive market areas. During the second quarter of 2017, the Company has plans to open a branch location in Clearwater, Florida and a loan production office in Los Angeles under the management of Centennial CFG.

As a result of our continued focus on efficiency, during the first quarter of 2017, we closed one branch location in Davie, Florida. During the second quarter the Company has plans to close one branch in Sarasota, Florida and two branches in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. During the remainder of 2017, we may announce additional strategic consolidations where it improves efficiency in certain markets.

As of March 31, 2017, we had 76 branches in Arkansas, 67 branches in Florida, 6 branches in Alabama and one branch in New York City.

Results of Operations

For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2017 and 2016

Our net income increased $5.4 million, or 13.1%, to $46.9 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2017, from $41.4 million for the same period in 2016. On a diluted earnings per share basis, our earnings were $0.33 per share and $0.29 per share (split adjusted) for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Excluding the $3.8 million of gain on acquisition and $6.7 million of merger expenses, net income was $47.4 million, and diluted earnings per share was $0.33 per share for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The $6.0 million increase in net income, excluding gain on acquisitions and merger expenses, is primarily associated with additional net interest income largely resulting from our acquisitions and our organic loan growth plus a decrease in provision for loan losses in first quarter of 2017, growth in non-interest income and the reduced amortization of the indemnification asset when compared to the same period in 2016. These improvements were partially offset by an increase in the costs associated with the asset growth when compared to the same period in 2016.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income, our principal source of earnings, is the difference between the interest income generated by earning assets and the total interest cost of the deposits and borrowings obtained to fund those assets. Factors affecting the level of net interest income include the volume of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, yields earned on loans and investments, rates paid on deposits and other borrowings, the level of non-performing loans and the amount of non-interest-bearing liabilities supporting earning assets. Net interest income is analyzed in the discussion and tables below on a fully taxable equivalent basis. The adjustment to convert certain income to a fully taxable equivalent basis consists of dividing tax-exempt income by one minus the combined federal and state income tax rate (39.225% for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016).

The Federal Reserve Board sets various benchmark rates, including the Federal Funds rate, and thereby influences the general market rates of interest, including the deposit and loan rates offered by financial institutions. The Federal Funds target rate, which is the cost to banks of immediately available overnight funds, was lowered on December 16, 2008 to a historic low of 0.25% to 0%, where it remained until December 16, 2015, when the target rate was increased slightly to 0.50% to 0.25%. Since December 31, 2016, the Federal Funds target rate has increased 50 basis points and is currently at 1.00% to 0.75%.

54

Our GAAP net interest margin decreased from 4.81% for the three-month period ended March 31, 2016 to 4.70% for the three-month period ended March 31, 2017. The yield on loans was 5.66% and 5.80% for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, we recognized $7.7 million and $10.7 million in total net accretion for acquired loans and deposits. The non-GAAP margin excluding accretion income was increased at 4.32% and 4.22% for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Additionally, the non-GAAP yield on loans excluding accretion income was also slightly increased at 5.19% and 5.07% for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Consequently, with a growth of the average loan balance of $856.5 million, we experienced a decline in the GAAP yield on loans and net interest margin primarily because the loan growth was approximately at our lower non-GAAP loan yields.

Net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis increased $6.8 million, or 6.79%, to $106.8 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2017, from $100.0 million for the same period in 2016. This increase in net interest income for the three-month period ended March 31, 2017 was the result of a $9.2 million increase in interest income offset by a $2.4 million increase in interest expense. The $9.2 million increase in interest income was primarily the result of a higher level of earning assets offset by lower yields on our loans. The higher level of earning assets resulted in an increase in interest income of approximately $11.9 million. The lower yield on our loans resulted in an approximately $2.7 million decrease in interest income. The $2.4 million increase in interest expense for the three-month period ended March 31, 2017, is primarily the result of an increase in interest bearing liabilities repricing in a slightly higher interest rate environment combined with an increase in the higher level of our interest bearing liabilities. The repricing of our interest bearing liabilities in a slightly higher interest rate environment resulted in an approximately $2.1 million increase in interest expense. The higher level of our interest bearing liabilities resulted in an increase in interest expense of approximately $303,000.

Additional information and analysis for our net interest margin can be found in Tables 18 through 20 of our Non-GAAP Financial Measurements section of the Management Discussion and Analysis.

Tables 2 and 3 reflect an analysis of net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, as well as changes in fully taxable equivalent net interest margin for the three-month period ended March 31, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016.

Provision for Loan Losses

Our management assesses the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses by applying the provisions of FASB ASC 310-10-35. Specific allocations are determined for loans considered to be impaired and loss factors are assigned to the remainder of the loan portfolio to determine an appropriate level in the allowance for loan losses. The allowance is increased, as necessary, by making a provision for loan losses. The specific allocations for impaired loans are assigned based on an estimated net realizable value after a thorough review of the credit relationship. The potential loss factors associated with the remainder of the loan portfolio are based on an internal net loss experience, as well as management’s review of trends within the portfolio and related industries.

While general economic trends have improved recently, we cannot be certain that the current economic conditions will considerably improve in the near future. Recent and ongoing events at the national and international levels can create uncertainty in the financial markets. Despite these economic uncertainties, we continue to follow our historically conservative procedures for lending and evaluating the provision and allowance for loan losses. Our practice continues to be primarily traditional real estate lending with strong loan-to-value ratios.

Generally, commercial, commercial real estate, and residential real estate loans are assigned a level of risk at origination. Thereafter, these loans are reviewed on a regular basis. The periodic reviews generally include loan payment and collateral status, the borrowers’ financial data, and key ratios such as cash flows, operating income, liquidity, and leverage. A material change in the borrower’s credit analysis can result in an increase or decrease in the loan’s assigned risk grade. Aggregate dollar volume by risk grade is monitored on an on-going basis.

Our management reviews certain key loan quality indicators on a monthly basis, including current economic conditions, delinquency trends and ratios, portfolio mix changes, and other information management deems necessary. This review process provides a degree of objective measurement that is used in conjunction with periodic internal evaluations. To the extent that this review process yields differences between estimated and actual observed losses, adjustments are made to the loss factors used to determine the appropriate level of the allowance for loan losses.

57

Our Company is primarily a real estate lender in the markets we serve. As such, we are subject to declines in asset quality when real estate prices fall. The recession in the latter years of the last decade harshly impacted the real estate market in Florida. The economic conditions particularly in our Florida markets have improved recently, although not to pre-recession levels. Our Arkansas markets’ economies have been fairly stable over the past several years with no boom or bust. As a result, the Arkansas economy fared better with its real estate values during this time period.

The provision for loan losses represents management’s determination of the amount necessary to be charged against the current period’s earnings, to maintain the allowance for loan losses at a level that is considered adequate in relation to the estimated risk inherent in the loan portfolio.

There was $3.9 million and $5.7 million of provision for loan losses for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. We experienced a $1.8 million decrease in the provision for loan losses during the first three months of 2017 versus the first three months of 2016. This $1.8 million decrease is primarily a result of lower organic loan growth offset by additional provisioning from higher net charge-offs versus the first three months of 2016.

Based upon current accounting guidance, the allowance for loan losses is not carried over in an acquisition. As a result, none of the acquired loans had any allocation of the allowance for loan losses at merger date. This is the result of all purchased loans being recorded at fair value in accordance with the fair value methodology prescribed in ASC Topic 820. However, as the acquired loans payoff or renew and the acquired footprint originates new loan production, it is necessary to establish an allowance which represents an amount that, in management’s judgment, will be adequate to absorb credit losses. The allowance for loan loss methodology for all originated loans as disclosed in Note 1 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our Form 10-K was used for these loans. Our current or historical provision levels should not be relied upon as a predictor or indicator of future levels going forward.

Non-Interest Income

Total non-interest income was $26.5 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2017, compared to $19.4 million for the same period in 2016, respectively. Our recurring non-interest income includes service charges on deposit accounts, other service charges and fees, trust fees, mortgage lending, insurance, increase in cash value of life insurance and dividends.

Table 6 measures the various components of our non-interest income for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, as well as changes for the three-month period ended March 31, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016.

Non-interest income increased $7.0 million, or 36.2%, to $26.5 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2017 from $19.4 million for the same period in 2016. Non-interest income excluding gain on acquisitions increased $3.2 million, or 16.6%, to $22.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 from $19.4 million for the same period in 2016.

Excluding gain on acquisitions, the primary factors that resulted in this increase were changes related to other service charges and fees, dividends, net gain on securities, and amortization on our former FDIC indemnification asset.

Additional details for the three months ended March 31, 2017 on some of the more significant changes are as follows:

• The $1.8 million increase in other service charges and fees is primarily from additional loan payoff fees generated by Centennial CFG plus approximately $615,000 of MasterCard incentive income received in the first quarter of 2017.

• The $529,000 increase in dividends from FHLB, FRB, Bankers’ Bank & other is primarily associated with additional dividends received from our investment in small business investment companies which are just now beginning to pay dividends.

• The $413,000 increase in gain (loss) on securities, net, is a result of gains on sales of investment securities when compared to the same period in 2016.

• The $362,000 increase in FDIC indemnification accretion/amortization, net, is a result of the buy-out of the FDIC loss share portfolio during the third quarter of 2016.

Non-Interest Expense

Non-interest expense primarily consists of salaries and employee benefits, occupancy and equipment, data processing, and other expenses such as advertising, merger and acquisition expenses, amortization of intangibles, electronic banking expense, FDIC and state assessment, insurance, legal and accounting fees and other professional fees.

Table 7 below sets forth a summary of non-interest expense for the three-month period ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, as well as changes for the three-month period ended March 31, 2017 compared to the same period in 2016.

Non-interest expense increased $9.5 million, or 20.8%, to $55.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 from $45.6 million for the same period in 2016. Non-interest expense, excluding merger expenses, was $48.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to $45.6 million for the same period in 2016.

The change in non-interest expense for 2017 when compared to 2016 is primarily related to the completion of our acquisitions, the normal increased cost of doing business and Centennial CFG.

The Centennial CFG loan production office incurred $4.6 million of non-interest expense during the three months ended March 31, 2017, compared to $3.0 million of non-interest expense during the three months ended March 31, 2016. While the cost of doing business in New York City is significantly higher than our Arkansas, Florida and Alabama markets, we are still committed to cost-saving measures while achieving our goals of growing the Company.

Income Taxes

The income tax expense increased $632,000, or 2.55%, to $25.4 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2017, from $24.7 million for the same period in 2016. The effective income tax rate was 35.13% for the three-month period ended March 31, 2017, compared to 37.39% for the same period in 2016. The primary cause of the decrease in the effective tax rate is a result of the $3.8 million of non-taxable gain on acquisitions combined with approximately $655,000 of non-deductible merger expenses during the first quarter of 2017.

Financial Condition as of and for the Period Ended March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016

Our total assets as of March 31, 2017 increased $909.0 million to $10.72 billion from the $9.81 billion reported as of December 31, 2016. Our loan portfolio increased $461.9 million to $7.85 billion as of March 31, 2017, from $7.39 billion as of December 31, 2016. This increase is a result of our acquisitions since December 31, 2016. Stockholders’ equity increased $114.1 million to $1.44 billion as of March 31, 2017, compared to $1.33 billion as of December 31, 2016. The increase in stockholders’ equity is primarily associated with the $77.5 million of common stock issued to the GHI shareholders plus the $34.2 million increase in retained earnings combined with the $610,000 of comprehensive income during the quarter. The annualized improvement in stockholders’ equity for the first three months of 2017 excluding the $77.5 million of common stock issued to the GHI shareholders was 11.2%.

Loan Portfolio

Loans Receivable

Our loan portfolio averaged $7.59 billion and $6.73 billion during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Loans receivable were $7.85 billion as of March 31, 2017 compared to $7.39 billion as of December 31, 2016, which is a $461.9 million, or 25.4%, annualized increase.

During the first quarter of 2017, the Company acquired $446.3 million of loans, net of purchase accounting discounts. From December 31, 2016 to March 31, 2017, the Company produced organic loan growth of approximately $15.7 million in addition to the acquired loans. The legacy footprint produced $43.1 million of organic loan growth during the first quarter of 2017 while Centennial CFG experienced significant payoffs during the first quarter of 2017 resulting in a decline of $27.4 million. Centennial CFG had loans of $1.08 billion at March 31, 2017.

The most significant components of the loan portfolio were commercial real estate, residential real estate, consumer, commercial and industrial and agricultural loans. These loans are generally secured by residential or commercial real estate or business or personal property. Although these loans are primarily originated within our franchises in Arkansas, Florida, South Alabama and Centennial CFG, the property securing these loans may not physically be located within our market areas of Arkansas, Florida, Alabama and New York. Loans receivable were approximately $3.58 billion, $2.96 billion, $231.5 million and $1.08 billion as of March 31, 2017 in Arkansas, Florida, Alabama and New York, respectively.

60

As of March 31, 2017, we had $463.9 million of construction land development loans which were collateralized by land. This consisted of $276.8 million for raw land and $187.1 million for land with commercial and or residential lots.

Table 8 presents our loans receivable balances by category as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

Commercial Real Estate Loans. We originate non-farm and non-residential loans (primarily secured by commercial real estate), construction/land development loans, and agricultural loans, which are generally secured by real estate located in our market areas. Our commercial mortgage loans are generally collateralized by first liens on real estate and amortized over a 15 to 25 year period with balloon payments due at the end of one to five years. These loans are generally underwritten by assessing cash flow (debt service coverage), primary and secondary source of repayment, the financial strength of any guarantor, the strength of the tenant (if any), the borrower’s liquidity and leverage, management experience, ownership structure, economic conditions and industry specific trends and collateral. Generally, we will loan up to 85% of the value of improved property, 65% of the value of raw land and 75% of the value of land to be acquired and developed. A first lien on the property and assignment of lease is required if the collateral is rental property, with second lien positions considered on a case-by-case basis.

As of March 31, 2017, commercial real estate loans totaled $4.76 billion, or 60.6% of loans receivable, as compared to $4.37 billion, or 59.1% of loans receivable, as of December 31, 2016. Commercial real estate loans originated in our Arkansas, Florida, Alabama and Centennial CFG markets were $1.99 billion, $1.89 billion, $119.9 million and $761.9 million at March 31, 2017, respectively.

Residential Real Estate Loans. We originate one to four family, residential mortgage loans generally secured by property located in our primary market areas. Approximately 40.4% and 48.9% of our residential mortgage loans consist of owner occupied 1-4 family properties and non-owner occupied 1-4 family properties (rental), respectively, as of March 31, 2017. Residential real estate loans generally have a loan-to-value ratio of up to 90%. These loans are underwritten by giving consideration to the borrower’s ability to pay, stability of employment or source of income, debt-to-income ratio, credit history and loan-to-value ratio.

As of March 31, 2017, residential real estate loans totaled $1.90 billion, or 24.2%, of loans receivable, compared to $1.70 billion, or 23.0% of loans receivable, as of December 31, 2016. Residential real estate loans originated in our Arkansas, Florida, Alabama and Centennial CFG markets were $879.1 million, $766.9 million, $83.3 million and $168.7 million at March 31, 2017, respectively.

Consumer Loans. Our consumer loans are composed of secured and unsecured loans originated by our bank. The performance of consumer loans will be affected by the local and regional economies as well as the rates of personal bankruptcies, job loss, divorce and other individual-specific characteristics.

61

As of March 31, 2017, consumer loans totaled $41.9 million, or 0.5% of loans receivable, compared to $41.8 million, or 0.6% of loans receivable, as of December 31, 2016. Consumer loans originated in our Arkansas, Florida, Alabama and Centennial CFG markets were $24.0 million, $16.9 million, $1.0 million and zero at March 31, 2017, respectively.

Commercial and Industrial Loans. Commercial and industrial loans are made for a variety of business purposes, including working capital, inventory, equipment and capital expansion. The terms for commercial loans are generally one to seven years. Commercial loan applications must be supported by current financial information on the borrower and, where appropriate, by adequate collateral. Commercial loans are generally underwritten by addressing cash flow (debt service coverage), primary and secondary sources of repayment, the financial strength of any guarantor, the borrower’s liquidity and leverage, management experience, ownership structure, economic conditions and industry specific trends and collateral. The loan to value ratio depends on the type of collateral. Generally speaking, accounts receivable are financed at between 50% and 80% of accounts receivable less than 60 days past due. Inventory financing will range between 50% and 60% (with no work in process) depending on the borrower and nature of inventory. We require a first lien position for those loans.

As of March 31, 2017, commercial and industrial loans totaled $1.01 billion, or 12.9% of loans receivable, which is comparable to $1.12 billion, or 15.2% of loans receivable, as of December 31, 2016. Commercial and industrial loans originated in our Arkansas, Florida, Alabama and Centennial CFG markets were $576.7 million, $261.0 million, $25.3 million and $150.4 million at March 31, 2017, respectively.

Non-Performing Assets

We classify our problem loans into three categories: past due loans, special mention loans and classified loans (accruing and non-accruing).

When management determines that a loan is no longer performing, and that collection of interest appears doubtful, the loan is placed on non-accrual status. Loans that are 90 days past due are placed on non-accrual status unless they are adequately secured and there is reasonable assurance of full collection of both principal and interest. Our management closely monitors all loans that are contractually 90 days past due, treated as “special mention” or otherwise classified or on non-accrual status.

We have purchased loans with deteriorated credit quality in our March 31, 2017 financial statements as a result of our historical acquisitions. The credit metrics most heavily impacted by our acquisitions of acquired loans with deteriorated credit quality were the following credit quality indicators listed in Table 9 below:

• Allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans;

• Non-performing loans to total loans; and

• Non-performing assets to total assets.

On the date of acquisition, acquired credit-impaired loans are initially recognized at fair value, which incorporates the present value of amounts estimated to be collectible. As a result of the application of this accounting methodology, certain credit-related ratios, including those referenced above, may not necessarily be directly comparable with periods prior to the acquisition of the credit-impaired loans and non-performing assets, or comparable with other institutions.

62

Table 9 sets forth information with respect to our non-performing assets as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016. As of these dates, all non-performing restructured loans are included in non-accrual loans.

Table 9: Non-performing Assets

Non-performing loans to total loans		0.75			0.85
Non-performing assets to total assets		0.71			0.81

Our non-performing loans are comprised of non-accrual loans and accruing loans that are contractually past due 90 days. Our bank subsidiary recognizes income principally on the accrual basis of accounting. When loans are classified as non-accrual, the accrued interest is charged off and no further interest is accrued, unless the credit characteristics of the loan improve. If a loan is determined by management to be uncollectible, the portion of the loan determined to be uncollectible is then charged to the allowance for loan losses.

Total non-performing loans were $59.2 million as of March 31, 2017, compared to $63.1 million as of December 31, 2016, for a decrease of $3.9 million. The $3.9 million decrease in non-performing loans is the result of a $2.4 million decrease in non-performing loans in our Arkansas market, a $966,000 decrease in non-performing loans in our Florida market and a $582,000 decrease in non-performing loans in our Alabama market. Non-performing loans at March 31, 2017 are $26.1 million, $33.0 million, $74,000 and zero in the Arkansas, Florida, Alabama and Centennial CFG markets, respectively.

Although the current state of the real estate market has improved, uncertainties still present in the economy may continue to increase our level of non-performing loans. While we believe our allowance for loan losses is adequate and our purchased loans are adequately discounted at March 31, 2017, as additional facts become known about relevant internal and external factors that affect loan collectability and our assumptions, it may result in us making additions to the provision for loan losses during 2017. Our current or historical provision levels should not be relied upon as a predictor or indicator of future levels going forward.

Troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) generally occur when a borrower is experiencing, or is expected to experience, financial difficulties in the near term. As a result, the Bank will work with the borrower to prevent further difficulties, and ultimately to improve the likelihood of recovery on the loan. In those circumstances it may be beneficial to restructure the terms of a loan and work with the borrower for the benefit of both parties, versus forcing the property into foreclosure and having to dispose of it in an unfavorable and depressed real estate market. When we have modified the terms of a loan, we usually either reduce the monthly payment and/or interest rate for generally about three to twelve months. For our TDRs that accrue interest at the time the loan is restructured, it would be a rare exception to have charged-off any portion of the loan. Only non-performing restructured loans are included in our non-performing loans. As of March 31, 2017, we had $21.0 million of restructured loans that are in compliance with the modified terms and are not reported as past due or non-accrual in Table 9. Our Florida market contains $18.1 million and our Arkansas market contains $2.9 million of these restructured loans.

63

A loan modification that might not otherwise be considered may be granted resulting in classification as a TDR. These loans can involve loans remaining on non-accrual, moving to non-accrual, or continuing on an accrual status, depending on the individual facts and circumstances of the borrower. Generally, a non-accrual loan that is restructured remains on non-accrual for a period of six months to demonstrate that the borrower can meet the restructured terms. However, performance prior to the restructuring, or significant events that coincide with the restructuring, are considered in assessing whether the borrower can pay under the new terms and may result in the loan being returned to an accrual status after a shorter performance period. If the borrower’s ability to meet the revised payment schedule is not reasonably assured, the loan will remain in a non-accrual status.

The majority of the Bank’s loan modifications relate to commercial lending and involve reducing the interest rate, changing from a principal and interest payment to interest-only, a lengthening of the amortization period, or a combination of some or all of the three. In addition, it is common for the Bank to seek additional collateral or guarantor support when modifying a loan. At March 31, 2017, the amount of TDRs was $22.8 million, a decrease of 10.8% from $25.5 million at December 31, 2016. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, 92.5% and 88.0%, respectively, of all restructured loans were performing to the terms of the restructure.

Total foreclosed assets held for sale were $17.3 million as of March 31, 2017, compared to $16.0 million as of December 31, 2016 for a decrease of $1.4 million. The foreclosed assets held for sale as of March 31, 2017 are comprised of $9.5 million of assets located in Arkansas, $6.8 million of assets located in Florida, $1.1 million located in Alabama and zero from Centennial CFG.

During the first three months of 2017, we had two foreclosed properties with a carrying value greater than $1.0 million. The largest property is a development loan in Northwest Arkansas which was foreclosed in the first quarter of 2011. The carrying value was $2.0 million at March 31, 2017. The other property was a development property in Florida acquired from BOC with a carrying value of $2.1 million at March 31, 2017. The Company does not currently anticipate any additional losses on these properties. As of March 31, 2017, no other foreclosed assets held for sale have a carrying value greater than $1.0 million.

Table 10 shows the summary of foreclosed assets held for sale as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

A loan is considered impaired when it is probable that we will not receive all amounts due according to the contracted terms of the loans. Impaired loans include non-performing loans (loans past due 90 days or more and non-accrual loans), criticized and/or classified loans with a specific allocation, loans categorized as TDRs and certain other loans identified by management that are still performing (loans included in multiple categories are only included once). As of March 31, 2017, average impaired loans were $92.2 million compared to $89.6 million as of December 31, 2016. As of March 31, 2017, impaired loans were $91.2 million compared to $93.1 million as of December 31, 2016, for a decrease of $1.9 million. This decrease is primarily associated with the decrease in loan balances with a specific allocation offset by an increase in the level of loans categorized as TDRs and non-performing loans. As of March 31, 2017, our Arkansas, Florida, Alabama and Centennial CFG markets accounted for approximately $37.7 million, $53.4 million, $74,000 and zero of the impaired loans, respectively.

64

We evaluated loans purchased in conjunction with our historical acquisitions for impairment in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 310-30, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality. Purchased loans are considered impaired if there is evidence of credit deterioration since origination and if it is probable that not all contractually required payments will be collected. Purchased credit impaired loans are not classified as non-performing assets for the recognition of interest income as the pools are considered to be performing. However, for the purpose of calculating the non-performing credit metrics, we have included all of the loans which are contractually 90 days past due and still accruing, including those in performing pools. Therefore, interest income, through accretion of the difference between the carrying amount of the loans and the expected cash flows, is being recognized on all purchased impaired loans.

All purchased loans with deteriorated credit quality are considered impaired loans at the date of acquisition. Since the loans are accounted for on a pooled basis under ASC 310-30, individual loans are not classified as impaired. Since the loans are accounted for on a pooled basis under ASC 310-30, individual loans subsequently restructured within the pools are not classified as TDRs in accordance with ASC 310-30-40. For purchased loans with deteriorated credit quality that were deemed TDRs prior to our acquisition of them, these loans are also not considered TDRs as they are accounted for under ASC 310-30.

As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, there was not a material amount of purchased loans with deteriorated credit quality on non-accrual status as a result of most of the loans being accounted for on the pool basis and the pools are considered to be performing for the accruing of interest income. Also, acquired loans contractually past due 90 days or more are accruing interest because the pools are considered to be performing for the purpose of accruing interest income.

The interest income recognized on the non-accrual loans for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 was considered immaterial.

Allowance for Loan Losses

Overview. The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level which our management believes is adequate to absorb all probable losses on loans in the loan portfolio. The amount of the allowance is affected by: (i) loan charge-offs, which decrease the allowance; (ii) recoveries on loans previously charged off, which increase the allowance; and (iii) the provision of possible loan losses charged to income, which increases the allowance. In determining the provision for possible loan losses, it is necessary for our management to monitor fluctuations in the allowance resulting from actual charge-offs and recoveries and to periodically review the size and composition of the loan portfolio in light of current and anticipated economic conditions. If actual losses exceed the amount of allowance for loan losses, our earnings could be adversely affected.

As we evaluate the allowance for loan losses, we categorize it as follows: (i) specific allocations; (ii) allocations for criticized and classified assets not individually evaluated for impairment; (iii) general allocations; and (iv) miscellaneous allocations.

Specific Allocations. As a general rule, if a specific allocation is warranted, it is the result of an analysis of a previously classified credit or relationship. Typically, when it becomes evident through the payment history or a financial statement review that a loan or relationship is no longer supported by the cash flows of the asset and/or borrower and has become collateral dependent, we will use appraisals or other collateral analysis to determine if collateral impairment has occurred. The amount or likelihood of loss on this credit may not yet be evident, so a charge-off would not be prudent. However, if the analysis indicates that an impairment has occurred, then a specific allocation will be determined for this loan. If our existing appraisal is outdated or the collateral has been subject to significant market changes, we will obtain a new appraisal for this impairment analysis. The majority of our impaired loans are collateral dependent at the present time, so third-party appraisals were used to determine the necessary impairment for these loans. Cash flow available to service debt was used for the other impaired loans. This analysis is performed each quarter in connection with the preparation of the analysis of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, and if necessary, adjustments are made to the specific allocation provided for a particular loan.

66

For collateral dependent loans, we do not consider an appraisal outdated simply due to the passage of time. However, if an appraisal is older than 13 months and if market or other conditions have deteriorated and we believe that the current market value of the property is not within approximately 20% of the appraised value, we will consider the appraisal outdated and order either a new appraisal or an internal validation report for the impairment analysis. The recognition of any provision or related charge-off on a collateral dependent loan is either through annual credit analysis or, many times, when the relationship becomes delinquent. If the borrower is not current, we will update our credit and cash flow analysis to determine the borrower’s repayment ability. If we determine this ability does not exist and it appears that the collection of the entire principal and interest is not likely, then the loan could be placed on non-accrual status. In any case, loans are classified as non-accrual no later than 105 days past due. If the loan requires a quarterly impairment analysis, this analysis is completed in conjunction with the completion of the analysis of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. Any exposure identified through the impairment analysis is shown as a specific reserve on the individual impairment. If it is determined that a new appraisal or internal validation report is required, it is ordered and will be taken into consideration during completion of the next impairment analysis.

In estimating the net realizable value of the collateral, management may deem it appropriate to discount the appraisal based on the applicable circumstances. In such case, the amount charged off may result in loan principal outstanding being below fair value as presented in the appraisal.

Between the receipt of the original appraisal and the updated appraisal, we monitor the loan’s repayment history. If the loan is $1.0 million or greater or the total loan relationship is $2.0 million or greater, our policy requires an annual credit review. Our policy requires financial statements from the borrowers and guarantors at least annually. In addition, we calculate the global repayment ability of the borrower/guarantors at least annually.

As a general rule, when it becomes evident that the full principal and accrued interest of a loan may not be collected, or by law at 105 days past due, we will reflect that loan as non-performing. It will remain non-performing until it performs in a manner that it is reasonable to expect that we will collect the full principal and accrued interest.

When the amount or likelihood of a loss on a loan has been determined, a charge-off should be taken in the period it is determined. If a partial charge-off occurs, the quarterly impairment analysis will determine if the loan is still impaired, and thus continues to require a specific allocation.

Allocations for Criticized and Classified Assets not Individually Evaluated for Impairment. We establish allocations for loans rated “special mention” through “loss” in accordance with the guidelines established by the regulatory agencies. A percentage rate is applied to each loan category to determine the level of dollar allocation.

General Allocations. We establish general allocations for each major loan category. This section also includes allocations to loans, which are collectively evaluated for loss such as residential real estate, commercial real estate, consumer loans and commercial and industrial loans that fall below $2.0 million. The allocations in this section are based on a historical review of loan loss experience and past due accounts. We give consideration to trends, changes in loan mix, delinquencies, prior losses, and other related information.

Miscellaneous Allocations. Allowance allocations other than specific, classified, and general are included in our miscellaneous section.

Loans Collectively Evaluated for Impairment. Loans receivable collectively evaluated for impairment increased by approximately $476.7 million from $7.08 billion at December 31, 2016 to $7.56 billion at March 31, 2017. The percentage of the allowance for loan losses allocated to loans receivable collectively evaluated for impairment to the total loans collectively evaluated for impairment decreased from 1.08% at December 31, 2016 to 0.97% at March 31, 2017. This decrease is the result of the normal changes associated with the calculation of the allocation of the allowance for loan losses and includes routine changes from the previous year end reporting period such as organic loan growth, unallocated allowance, asset quality and net charge-offs.

Charge-offs and Recoveries. Total charge-offs increased to $4.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, compared to $3.9 million for the same period in 2016. Total recoveries decreased to $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, compared to $1.4 million for the same period in 2016. For the three months ended March 31, 2017, net charge-offs were $3.1 million for Arkansas, $347,000 for Florida, $203,000 for Alabama and zero for Centennial CFG, equaling a net charge-off position of $3.6 million. While the 2017 charge-offs and recoveries consisted of many relationships, there were no individual relationships consisting of charge-offs greater than $1.0 million.

67

We have not charged off an amount less than what was determined to be the fair value of the collateral as presented in the appraisal, less estimated costs to sell (for collateral dependent loans), for any period presented. Loans partially charged-off are placed on non-accrual status until it is proven that the borrower’s repayment ability with respect to the remaining principal balance can be reasonably assured. This is usually established over a period of 6-12 months of timely payment performance.

Allocated Allowance for Loan Losses. We use a risk rating and specific reserve methodology in the calculation and allocation of our allowance for loan losses. While the allowance is allocated to various loan categories in assessing and evaluating the level of the allowance, the allowance is available to cover charge-offs incurred in all loan categories. Because a portion of our portfolio has not matured to the degree necessary to obtain reliable loss data from which to calculate estimated future losses, the unallocated portion of the allowance is an integral component of the total allowance. Although unassigned to a particular credit relationship or product segment, this portion of the allowance is vital to safeguard against the imprecision inherent in estimating credit losses.

The changes for the period ended March 31, 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2016 in the allocation of the allowance for loan losses for the individual types of loans are primarily associated with changes in the ASC 310 calculations, both individual and aggregate, and changes in the ASC 450 calculations. These calculations are affected by changes in individual loan impairments, changes in asset quality, net charge-offs during the period and normal changes in the outstanding loan portfolio, as well any changes to the general allocation factors due to changes within the actual characteristics of the loan portfolio.

Table 14 presents the allocation of allowance for loan losses as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

Investment Securities

Our securities portfolio is the second largest component of earning assets and provides a significant source of revenue. Securities within the portfolio are classified as held-to-maturity, available-for-sale, or trading based on the intent and objective of the investment and the ability to hold to maturity. Fair values of securities are based on quoted market prices where available. If quoted market prices are not available, estimated fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable securities. The estimated effective duration of our securities portfolio was 2.8 years as of March 31, 2017.

As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we had $276.6 million and $284.2 million of held-to-maturity securities, respectively. Of the $276.6 million of held-to-maturity securities as of March 31, 2017, $6.6 million were invested in U.S. Government-sponsored enterprises, $103.5 million were invested in mortgage-backed securities and $166.5 million were invested in state and political subdivisions. Of the $284.2 million of held-to-maturity securities as of December 31, 2016, $6.6 million were invested in U.S. Government-sponsored enterprises, $107.8 million were invested in mortgage-backed securities and $169.7 million were invested in state and political subdivisions.

69

Securities available-for-sale are reported at fair value with unrealized holding gains and losses reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity as other comprehensive income. Securities that are held as available-for-sale are used as a part of our asset/liability management strategy. Securities that may be sold in response to interest rate changes, changes in prepayment risk, the need to increase regulatory capital, and other similar factors are classified as available-for-sale. Available-for-sale securities were $1.25 billion and $1.07 billion as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

As of March 31, 2017, $666.7 million, or 53.3%, of our available-for-sale securities were invested in mortgage-backed securities, compared to $579.5 million, or 54.0%, of our available-for-sale securities as of December 31, 2016. To reduce our income tax burden, $226.9 million, or 18.1%, of our available-for-sale securities portfolio as of March 31, 2017, was primarily invested in tax-exempt obligations of state and political subdivisions, compared to $216.5 million, or 20.2%, of our available-for-sale securities as of December 31, 2016. Also, we had approximately $317.1 million, or 25.4%, invested in obligations of U.S. Government-sponsored enterprises as of March 31, 2017, compared to $236.8 million, or 22.1%, of our available-for-sale securities as of December 31, 2016.

Certain investment securities are valued at less than their historical cost. These declines are primarily the result of the rate for these investments yielding less than current market rates. Based on evaluation of available evidence, we believe the declines in fair value for these securities are temporary. It is our intent to hold these securities to recovery. Should the impairment of any of these securities become other than temporary, the cost basis of the investment will be reduced and the resulting loss recognized in net income in the period the other than temporary impairment is identified.

See Note 3 “Investment Securities” in the Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the carrying value and fair value of investment securities.

Deposits

Our deposits averaged $7.21 billion for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017. Total deposits as of March 31, 2017 were $7.57 billion. Excluding $443.8 million of deposits acquired through the acquisitions of GHI and BOC, total deposits as of March 31, 2017 were $7.12 billion, for an annualized increase of 10.6% from December 31, 2016. Deposits are our primary source of funds. We offer a variety of products designed to attract and retain deposit customers. Those products consist of checking accounts, regular savings deposits, NOW accounts, money market accounts and certificates of deposit. Deposits are gathered from individuals, partnerships and corporations in our market areas. In addition, we obtain deposits from state and local entities and, to a lesser extent, U.S. Government and other depository institutions.

Our policy also permits the acceptance of brokered deposits. From time to time, when appropriate in order to fund strong loan demand, we accept brokered time deposits, generally in denominations of less than $250,000, from a regional brokerage firm, and other national brokerage networks. Additionally, we participate in the Certificates of Deposit Account Registry Service (“CDARS”), which provides for reciprocal (“two-way”) transactions among banks for the purpose of giving our customers the potential for FDIC insurance of up to $50.0 million. Although classified as brokered deposits for regulatory purposes, funds placed through the CDARS program are our customer relationships that management views as core funding. We also participate in the One-Way Buy Insured Cash Sweep (“ICS”) service, which provides for one-way buy transactions among banks for the purpose of purchasing cost-effective floating-rate funding without collateralization or stock purchase requirements. Management believes these sources represent a reliable and cost efficient alternative funding source for the Company. However, to the extent that our condition or reputation deteriorates, or to the extent that there are significant changes in market interest rates which we do not elect to match, we may experience an outflow of brokered deposits. In that event we would be required to obtain alternate sources for funding.

70

Table 15 reflects the classification of the brokered deposits as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

Insured Cash Sweep and Other Transaction Accounts		508,761		406,120
Total Brokered Deposits	$	590,841	$	502,537

The interest rates paid are competitively priced for each particular deposit product and structured to meet our funding requirements. We will continue to manage interest expense through deposit pricing. We may allow higher rate deposits to run off during periods of limited loan demand. We believe that additional funds can be attracted and deposit growth can be realized through deposit pricing if we experience increased loan demand or other liquidity needs.

The Federal Reserve Board sets various benchmark rates, including the Federal Funds rate, and thereby influences the general market rates of interest, including the deposit and loan rates offered by financial institutions. The Federal Funds target rate, which is the cost to banks of immediately available overnight funds, was lowered on December 16, 2008 to a historic low of 0.25% to 0%, where it remained until December 16, 2015, when the target rate was increased slightly to 0.50% to 0.25%. Since December 31, 2016, the Federal Funds target rate has increased 50 basis points and is currently at 1.00% to 0.75%.

Table 16 reflects the classification of the average deposits and the average rate paid on each deposit category, which are in excess of 10 percent of average total deposits, for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016.

Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase

We enter into short-term purchases of securities under agreements to resell (resale agreements) and sales of securities under agreements to repurchase (repurchase agreements) of substantially identical securities. The amounts advanced under resale agreements and the amounts borrowed under repurchase agreements are carried on the balance sheet at the amount advanced. Interest incurred on repurchase agreements is reported as interest expense. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase increased $2.5 million, or 2.1%, from $121.3 million as of December 31, 2016 to $123.8 million as of March 31, 2017.

FHLB Borrowed Funds

Our FHLB borrowed funds were $1.46 billion and $1.31 billion at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. At March 31, 2017, $290.0 million and $1.17 billion of the outstanding balance were issued as short-term and long-term advances, respectively. At December 31, 2016, $40.0 million and $1.27 billion of the outstanding balance were issued as short-term and long-term advances, respectively. Our remaining FHLB borrowing capacity was $707.7 million and $718.2 million as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. Maturities of borrowings as of March 31, 2017 include: 2017 – $680.9 million; 2018 – $459.2 million; 2019 – $143.1 million; 2020 – $146.4 million; 2021 – zero; after 2021 – $25.4 million. Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities because FHLB may have the right to call or HBI the right to prepay certain obligations.

Subordinated Debentures

Subordinated debentures, which consist of guaranteed payments on trust preferred securities, were $60.8 million as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

The trust preferred securities are tax-advantaged issues that qualify for Tier 1 capital treatment subject to certain limitations. Distributions on these securities are included in interest expense. Each of the trusts is a statutory business trust organized for the sole purpose of issuing trust securities and investing the proceeds in our subordinated debentures, the sole asset of each trust. The trust preferred securities of each trust represent preferred beneficial interests in the assets of the respective trusts and are subject to mandatory redemption upon payment of the subordinated debentures held by the trust. We wholly own the common securities of each trust. Each trust’s ability to pay amounts due on the trust preferred securities is solely dependent upon our making payment on the related subordinated debentures. Our obligations under the subordinated securities and other relevant trust agreements, in aggregate, constitute a full and unconditional guarantee by us of each respective trust’s obligations under the trust securities issued by each respective trust.

Subsequent to the quarter end, on April 3, 2017, we issued $300 million of additional subordinated debentures in an underwritten public offering.

Stockholders’ Equity

Stockholders’ equity was $1.44 billion at March 31, 2017 compared to $1.33 billion at December 31, 2016. The increase in stockholders’ equity is primarily associated with the $77.5 million of common stock issued to the GHI shareholders plus the $34.2 million increase in retained earnings combined with the $610,000 of comprehensive income during the quarter. The annualized improvement in stockholders’ equity for the first three months of 2017 excluding the $77.5 million of common stock issued to the GHI shareholders was 11.2%. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, our equity to asset ratio was 13.45% and 13.53%, respectively. Book value per share was $10.05 as of March 31, 2017, compared to $9.45 as of December 31, 2016, a 25.7% annualized increase.

Common Stock Cash Dividends. We declared cash dividends on our common stock of $0.09 per share and $0.075 per share (split adjusted) for each of the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The common stock dividend payout ratio for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 was 27.02% and 25.44%, respectively. For the second quarter of 2017, the Board of Directors declared a regular $0.09 per share quarterly cash dividend payable June 7, 2017, to shareholders of record May 17, 2017.

Two-for-One Stock Split. On April 21, 2016, our Board of Directors declared a two-for-one stock split paid in the form of a 100% stock dividend on June 8, 2016 to shareholders of record at the close of business on May 18, 2016. The additional shares were distributed by the Company’s transfer agent, Computershare, and the Company’s common stock began trading on a split-adjusted basis on the NASDAQ Global Select Market on June 9, 2016.

All share and per share amounts reported prior to the two-for-one stock split have been restated to reflect the retroactive effect of the stock split.

Liquidity and Capital Adequacy Requirements

Risk-Based Capital. We, as well as our bank subsidiary, are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and other discretionary actions by regulators that, if enforced, could have a direct material effect on our financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, we must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of our assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Our capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators as to components, risk weightings and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require us to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets, and of Tier 1 capital to average assets. Management believes that, as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we met all regulatory capital adequacy requirements to which we were subject.

On April 3, 2017 the Company completed an underwritten public offering of $300 million in aggregate principal amount of its 5.625% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes due 2027 (the “Notes”). The Notes were issued at 99.997% of par, resulting in net proceeds, after underwriting discounts, of approximately $297.2 million. The Notes are unsecured, subordinated debt obligations of the Company and will mature on April 15, 2027. The Notes qualify as Tier 2 capital for regulatory purposes.

Table 17 presents our risk-based capital ratios on a consolidated basis as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, plus our risk-based capital ratios on a consolidated basis as of March 31, 2017 as further adjusted to reflect the April 3, 2017 issuance and sale of subordinated notes, after deducting the underwriting discounts.

As of the most recent notification from regulatory agencies, our bank subsidiary was “well-capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as “well-capitalized”, we, as well as our banking subsidiary, must maintain minimum common equity Tier 1 capital, leverage, Tier 1 risk-based capital, and total risk-based capital ratios as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or events since that notification that we believe have changed the bank subsidiary’s category.

Non-GAAP Financial Measurements

Our accounting and reporting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and the prevailing practices in the banking industry. However, due to the application of purchase accounting from our significant number of historical acquisitions (especially Liberty), we believe certain non-GAAP measures and ratios that exclude the impact of these items are useful to the investors and users of our financial statements to evaluate our performance, including net interest margin and efficiency ratio.

Because of our significant number of historical acquisitions, our net interest margin was impacted by accretion and amortization of the fair value adjustments recorded in purchase accounting. The accretion and amortization affect certain operating ratios as we accrete loan discounts to interest income and amortize premiums and discounts on time deposits to interest expense.

We believe these non-GAAP measures and ratios, when taken together with the corresponding GAAP measures and ratios, provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance. We believe investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP measures and ratios in assessing our operating results and related trends, and when planning and forecasting future periods. However, these non-GAAP measures and ratios should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for or preferable to, ratios prepared in accordance with GAAP. In Tables 18 through 20 below, we have provided a reconciliation of, where applicable, the most comparable GAAP financial measures and ratios to the non-GAAP financial measures and ratios, or a reconciliation of the non-GAAP calculation of the financial measure for the periods indicated:

Because of our level of intangible assets and related amortization expenses, management believes tangible book value per share, return on average assets excluding intangible amortization, return on average tangible equity excluding intangible amortization and tangible equity to tangible assets are useful in evaluating our company.

The efficiency ratio is a standard measure used in the banking industry and is calculated by dividing non-interest expense less amortization of core deposit intangibles by the sum of net interest income on a tax equivalent basis and non-interest income. The core efficiency ratio is a meaningful non-GAAP measure for management, as it excludes non-fundamental items and is calculated by dividing non-interest expense less amortization of core deposit intangibles by the sum of net interest income on a tax equivalent basis and non-interest income excluding non-fundamental items such as merger expenses, FDIC loss share buy-out expense and/or gains and losses. In Table 25 below, we have provided a reconciliation of the non-GAAP calculation of the financial measure for the periods indicated.

Item 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Liquidity and Market Risk Management

Liquidity Management. Liquidity refers to the ability or the financial flexibility to manage future cash flows to meet the needs of depositors and borrowers and fund operations. Maintaining appropriate levels of liquidity allows us to have sufficient funds available for reserve requirements, customer demand for loans, withdrawal of deposit balances and maturities of deposits and other liabilities. Our primary source of liquidity at our holding company is dividends paid by our bank subsidiary. Applicable statutes and regulations impose restrictions on the amount of dividends that may be declared by our bank subsidiary. Further, any dividend payments are subject to the continuing ability of the bank subsidiary to maintain compliance with minimum federal regulatory capital requirements and to retain its characterization under federal regulations as a “well-capitalized” institution.

78

Our bank subsidiary has potential obligations resulting from the issuance of standby letters of credit and commitments to fund future borrowings to our loan customers. Many of these obligations and commitments to fund future borrowings to our loan customers are expected to expire without being drawn upon; therefore, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements affecting our liquidity position.

Liquidity needs can be met from either assets or liabilities. On the asset side, our primary sources of liquidity include cash and due from banks, federal funds sold, available-for-sale investment securities and scheduled repayments and maturities of loans. We maintain adequate levels of cash and cash equivalents to meet our day-to-day needs. As of March 31, 2017, our cash and cash equivalents were $417.1 million, or 3.9% of total assets, compared to $216.6 million, or 2.2% of total assets, as of December 31, 2016. Our available-for-sale investment securities and federal funds sold were $1.25 billion and $1.07 billion as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

As of March 31, 2017, our investment portfolio was comprised of approximately 75.6% or $1.15 billion of securities which mature in less than five years. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, $1.01 billion and $1.07 billion, respectively, of securities were pledged as collateral for various public fund deposits and securities sold under agreements to repurchase.

On the liability side, our principal sources of liquidity are deposits, borrowed funds, and access to capital markets. Customer deposits are our largest sources of funds. As of March 31, 2017, our total deposits were $7.57 billion, or 70.6% of total assets, compared to $6.94 billion, or 70.8% of total assets, as of December 31, 2016. We attract our deposits primarily from individuals, business, and municipalities located in our market areas.

In the event that additional short-term liquidity is needed to temporarily satisfy our liquidity needs, we have established and currently maintain lines of credit with the Federal Reserve Bank (“Federal Reserve”) and Bankers’ Bank to provide short-term borrowings in the form of federal funds purchases. In addition, we maintain lines of credit with two other financial institutions.

As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we could have borrowed up to $103.5 million and $104.6 million, respectively, on a secured basis from the Federal Reserve, up to $30.0 million from Bankers’ Bank on an unsecured basis, and up to $30.0 million in the aggregate from other financial institutions on an unsecured basis. The unsecured lines may be terminated by the respective institutions at any time.

The lines of credit we maintain with the FHLB can provide us with both short-term and long-term forms of liquidity on a secured basis. FHLB borrowed funds were $1.46 billion and $1.31 billion at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. At March 31, 2017, $290.0 million and $1.17 billion of the outstanding balance were issued as short-term and long-term advances, respectively. At December 31, 2016, $40.0 million and $1.27 billion of the outstanding balance were issued as short-term and long-term advances, respectively. Our FHLB borrowing capacity was $707.7 million and $718.2 million as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

Finally, subsequent to the quarter end, on April 3, 2017, we issued $300 million of additional subordinated debentures in an underwritten public offering.

We believe that we have sufficient liquidity to satisfy our current operations.

Market Risk Management. Our primary component of market risk is interest rate volatility. Fluctuations in interest rates will ultimately impact both the level of income and expense recorded on a large portion of our assets and liabilities, and the market value of all interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, other than those which possess a short term to maturity. We do not hold market risk sensitive instruments for trading purposes.

Asset/Liability Management. Our management actively measures and manages interest rate risk. The asset/liability committees of the boards of directors of our holding company and bank subsidiary are also responsible for approving our asset/liability management policies, overseeing the formulation and implementation of strategies to improve balance sheet positioning and earnings, and reviewing our interest rate sensitivity position.

79

One of the tools that our management uses to measure short-term interest rate risk is a net interest income simulation model. This analysis calculates the difference between net interest income forecasted using base market rates and using a rising and a falling interest rate scenario. The income simulation model includes various assumptions regarding the re-pricing relationships for each of our products. Many of our assets are floating rate loans, which are assumed to re-price immediately, and proportional to the change in market rates, depending on their contracted index. Some loans and investments include the opportunity of prepayment (embedded options), and accordingly the simulation model uses indexes to estimate these prepayments and reinvest their proceeds at current yields. Our non-term deposit products re-price more slowly, usually changing less than the change in market rates and at our discretion.

This analysis indicates the impact of changes in net interest income for the given set of rate changes and assumptions. It assumes the balance sheet remains static and that its structure does not change over the course of the year. It does not account for all factors that impact this analysis, including changes by management to mitigate the impact of interest rate changes or secondary impacts such as changes to our credit risk profile as interest rates change.

Furthermore, loan prepayment rate estimates and spread relationships change regularly. Interest rate changes create changes in actual loan prepayment rates that will differ from the market estimates incorporated in this analysis. Changes that vary significantly from the assumptions may have significant effects on our net interest income.

Interest Rate Sensitivity. Our primary business is banking and the resulting earnings, primarily net interest income, are susceptible to changes in market interest rates. It is management’s goal to maximize net interest income within acceptable levels of interest rate and liquidity risks.

A key element in the financial performance of financial institutions is the level and type of interest rate risk assumed. The single most significant measure of interest rate risk is the relationship of the repricing periods of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The more closely the repricing periods are correlated, the less interest rate risk we assume. We use repricing gap and simulation modeling as the primary methods in analyzing and managing interest rate risk.

Gap analysis attempts to capture the amounts and timing of balances exposed to changes in interest rates at a given point in time. As of March 31, 2017, our gap position was asset sensitive with a one-year cumulative repricing gap as a percentage of total earning assets of 2.8%. As a result of the April 3, 2017 issuance and sale of $300 million of subordinated notes, we estimate that our gap position remained asset sensitive with a pro-forma one-year cumulative repricing gap as a percentage of total earning assets of approximately 5.9%.

During this period, the amount of change our asset base realizes in relation to the total change in market interest rates is higher than that of the liability base. As a result, our net interest income will have a positive effect in an environment of modestly rising rates.

We have a portion of our securities portfolio invested in mortgage-backed securities. Mortgage-backed securities are included based on their final maturity date. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

1.  Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Operations

Home BancShares, Inc. (the “Company” or “HBI”) is a bank holding company headquartered in Conway, Arkansas. The Company is primarily engaged in providing a full range of banking services to individual and corporate customers through its wholly-owned community bank subsidiary – Centennial Bank (sometimes referred to as “Centennial” or the “Bank”). The Bank has branch locations in Arkansas, Florida, South Alabama and New York City. The Company is subject to competition from other financial institutions. The Company also is subject to the regulation of certain federal and state agencies and undergoes periodic examinations by those regulatory authorities.

A summary of the significant accounting policies of the Company follows:

Operating Segments

Operating segments are components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Bank is the only significant subsidiary upon which management makes decisions regarding how to allocate resources and assess performance. Each of the branches of the Bank provide a group of similar community banking services, including such products and services as commercial, real estate and consumer loans, time deposits, checking and savings accounts. The individual bank branches have similar operating and economic characteristics. While the chief decision maker monitors the revenue streams of the various products, services and branch locations, operations are managed and financial performance is evaluated on a Company-wide basis. Accordingly, all of the community banking services and branch locations are considered by management to be aggregated into one reportable operating segment, community banking.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of investment securities, the valuation of foreclosed assets and the valuations of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations. In connection with the determination of the allowance for loan losses and the valuation of foreclosed assets, management obtains independent appraisals for significant properties.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of HBI and its subsidiaries. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Reclassifications

Various items within the accompanying consolidated financial statements for previous years have been reclassified to provide more comparative information. These reclassifications had no effect on net earnings or stockholders’ equity.

Interim financial information

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2017 and 2016 have been prepared in condensed format, and therefore do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements.

The information furnished in these interim statements reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for each respective period presented. Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations in the interim statements are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other quarter or for the full year. The interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2016 Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed based on the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during each year, which have been restated to reflect the effect of the 2-for-1 stock split during June 2016. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted-average shares and all potential dilutive shares outstanding during the period. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) for the following periods:

Acquisition of Giant Holdings, Inc.

On February 23, 2017, the Company completed its acquisition of Giant Holdings, Inc. (“GHI”), parent company of Landmark Bank, N.A. (“Landmark”), pursuant to a previously announced definitive agreement and plan of merger whereby GHI merged with and into HBI and, immediately thereafter, Landmark merged with and into Centennial. The Company paid a purchase price to the GHI shareholders of approximately $96.0 million for the GHI acquisition. Under the terms of the agreement, shareholders of GHI received 2,738,038 shares of its common stock valued at approximately $77.5 million as of February 23, 2017, plus approximately $18.5 million in cash in exchange for all outstanding shares of GHI common stock.

GHI formerly operated six branch locations in the Ft. Lauderdale, Florida area. Including the effects of the purchase accounting adjustments, as of acquisition date, GHI had approximately $398.1 million in total assets, $329.4 million in loans after $6.5 million of loan discounts, and $304.0 million in deposits.

The Company has determined that the acquisition of the net assets of GHI constitutes a business combination as defined by the ASC Topic 805. Accordingly, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are presented at their fair values as required. Fair values were determined based on the requirements of ASC Topic 820. In many cases, the determination of these fair values required management to make estimates about discount rates, future expected cash flows, market conditions and other future events that are highly subjective in nature and subject to change. The following schedule is a breakdown of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date:

The following is a description of the methods used to determine the fair values of significant assets and liabilities presented above:

Cash and due from banks and interest-bearing deposits with other banks – The carrying amount of these assets is a reasonable estimate of fair value based on the short-term nature of these assets.

Investment securities – Investment securities were acquired from GHI with an approximately $5,000 adjustment to market value based upon quoted market prices.

Loans – Fair values for loans were based on a discounted cash flow methodology that considered factors including the type of loan and related collateral, classification status, fixed or variable interest rate, term of loan and whether or not the loan was amortizing, and current discount rates. The discount rates used for loans are based on current market rates for new originations of comparable loans and include adjustments for liquidity concerns.

The Company evaluated $315.6 million of the loans purchased in conjunction with the acquisition in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 310-20, Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs, which were recorded with a $3.6 million discount. As a result, the fair value discount on these loans is being accreted into interest income over the weighted average life of the loans using a constant yield method. The remaining $20.3 million of loans evaluated were considered purchased credit impaired loans within the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 310-30, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality, and were recorded with a $4.5 million discount. These purchase credit impaired loans will recognize interest income through accretion of the difference between the carrying amount of the loans and the expected cash flows. The acquired GHI loan balance includes $1.6 million of discount for credit losses on purchased loans.

Bank premises and equipment – Bank premises and equipment were acquired from GHI with a $608,000 adjustment to market value. This represents the difference between current appraisals completed in connection with the acquisition and book value acquired.

Cash value of life insurance – Cash value of life insurance was acquired from GHI at market value.

Accrued interest receivable – Accrued interest receivable was acquired from GHI at market value.

Deferred tax asset – The current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recorded to reflect the differences in the carrying values of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the cost basis for federal income tax purposes, at the Company’s statutory federal and state income tax rate of 39.225%.

Core deposit intangible – This intangible asset represents the value of the relationships that GHI had with its deposit customers. The fair value of this intangible asset was estimated based on a discounted cash flow methodology that gave appropriate consideration to expected customer attrition rates, cost of the deposit base, and the net maintenance cost attributable to customer deposits. The Company recorded $3.4 million of core deposit intangible.

Deposits – The fair values used for the demand and savings deposits that comprise the transaction accounts acquired, by definition equal the amount payable on demand at the acquisition date. The $324,000 fair value adjustment applied for time deposits was because the weighted average interest rate of GHI’s certificates of deposits were estimated to be below the current market rates.

FHLB borrowed funds – The fair value of FHLB borrowed funds is estimated based on borrowing rates currently available to the Company for borrowings with similar terms and maturities.

Accrued interest payable and other liabilities – The fair value used represents the adjustments of certain estimated liabilities from GHI.

The purchase price allocation and certain fair value measurements remain preliminary due to the timing of the acquisition. The Company will continue to review the estimated fair values of loans, deposits and intangible assets, and to evaluate the assumed tax positions and contingencies.

The Company’s operating results for the period ended March 31, 2017, include the operating results of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities subsequent to the acquisition date. Due to the fair value adjustments recorded and the fact GHI total assets acquired are less than 5% of total assets as of March 31, 2017 excluding GHI as recorded by HBI as of acquisition date, historical results are not believed to be material to the Company’s results, and thus no pro-forma information is presented.

Acquisition of The Bank of Commerce

On February 28, 2017, HBI, parent company of Centennial Bank (“Centennial”), completed its previously announced acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of The Bank of Commerce, a Florida state-chartered bank that operated in the Sarasota, Florida area (“BOC”), pursuant to an acquisition agreement, dated December 1, 2016, by and between HBI and Bank of Commerce Holdings, Inc. (“BCHI”), parent company of BOC. HBI merged BOC with and into Centennial effective as of the close of business on February 28, 2017.

The acquisition of BOC was conducted in accordance with the provisions of Section 363 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) pursuant to a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code filed by BCHI with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Florida (the “Bankruptcy Court”). The sale of BOC by BCHI was subject to certain bidding procedures approved by the Bankruptcy Court. On November 14, 2016, the Company submitted an initial bid to purchase the outstanding shares of BOC in accordance with the bidding procedures approved by the Bankruptcy Court. An auction was subsequently conducted on November 16, 2016, and the Company was deemed to be the successful bidder. The Bankruptcy Court entered a final order on December 9, 2016 approving the sale of BOC to the Company pursuant to and in accordance with the acquisition agreement.

Under the terms of the Agreement, HBI paid an aggregate of approximately $4.2 million in cash for the acquisition, which included the purchase of all outstanding shares of BOC common stock, the discounted purchase of certain subordinated debentures issued by BOC from the existing holders of the subordinated debentures, and an expense reimbursement to BCHI for approved administrative claims in connection with the bankruptcy proceeding.

BOC formerly operated three branch locations in the Sarasota, Florida area. Including the effects of the purchase accounting adjustments, as of acquisition date, BOC had approximately $178.1 million in total assets, $118.5 million in loans after $5.8 million of loan discounts, and $139.8 million in deposits.

The Company has determined that the acquisition of the net assets of BOC constitutes a business combination as defined by the ASC Topic 805. Accordingly, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are presented at their fair values as required. Fair values were determined based on the requirements of ASC Topic 820. In many cases, the determination of these fair values required management to make estimates about discount rates, future expected cash flows, market conditions and other future events that are highly subjective in nature and subject to change. The following schedule is a breakdown of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date:

The following is a description of the methods used to determine the fair values of significant assets and liabilities presented above:

Cash and due from banks and interest-bearing deposits with other banks – The carrying amount of these assets is a reasonable estimate of fair value based on the short-term nature of these assets.

Investment securities – Investment securities were acquired from BOC with a $113,000 adjustment to market value based upon quoted market prices.

Loans – Fair values for loans were based on a discounted cash flow methodology that considered factors including the type of loan and related collateral, classification status, fixed or variable interest rate, term of loan and whether or not the loan was amortizing, and current discount rates. The discount rates used for loans are based on current market rates for new originations of comparable loans and include adjustments for liquidity concerns.

The Company evaluated $106.8 million of the loans purchased in conjunction with the acquisition in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 310-20, Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs, which were recorded with a $3.0 million discount. As a result, the fair value discount on these loans is being accreted into interest income over the weighted average life of the loans using a constant yield method. The remaining $17.5 million of loans evaluated were considered purchased credit impaired loans within the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 310-30, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality, and were recorded with a $2.8 million discount. These purchase credit impaired loans will recognize interest income through accretion of the difference between the carrying amount of the loans and the expected cash flows.

Bank premises and equipment – Bank premises and equipment were acquired from BOC at market value.

Foreclosed assets held for sale – These assets are presented at the estimated fair values that management expects to receive when the properties are sold, net of related costs to sell.

Accrued interest receivable – Accrued interest receivable was acquired from BOC at market value.

Deferred tax asset – The current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recorded to reflect the differences in the carrying values of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the cost basis for federal income tax purposes, at the Company’s statutory federal and state income tax rate of 39.225%.

Core deposit intangible – This intangible asset represents the value of the relationships that BOC had with its deposit customers. The fair value of this intangible asset was estimated based on a discounted cash flow methodology that gave appropriate consideration to expected customer attrition rates, cost of the deposit base, and the net maintenance cost attributable to customer deposits. The Company recorded $968,000 of core deposit intangible.

Deposits – The fair values used for the demand and savings deposits that comprise the transaction accounts acquired, by definition equal the amount payable on demand at the acquisition date. The $270,000 fair value adjustment applied for time deposits was because the weighted-average interest rate of BOC’s certificates of deposits were estimated to be below the current market rates.

FHLB borrowed funds – The fair value of FHLB borrowed funds is estimated based on borrowing rates currently available to the Company for borrowings with similar terms and maturities.

Accrued interest payable and other liabilities – The fair value used represents the adjustment of certain estimated liabilities from BOC.

The purchase price allocation and certain fair value measurements remain preliminary due to the timing of the acquisition. The Company will continue to review the estimated fair values of loans, deposits and intangible assets, and to evaluate the assumed tax positions and contingencies.

The Company’s operating results for the period ended March 31, 2017, include the operating results of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities subsequent to the acquisition date. Due to the fair value adjustments recorded and the fact BOC total assets acquired are less than 5% of total assets as of March 31, 2017 excluding BOC as recorded by HBI as of acquisition date, historical results are not believed to be material to the Company’s results, and thus no pro-forma information is presented.

Future Acquisition of Stonegate Bank

On March 27, 2017, Home BancShares, Inc. and its wholly-owned bank subsidiary, Centennial Bank, an Arkansas state bank (“Centennial”), entered into an acquisition with Stonegate Bank (“Stonegate”). The acquisition agreement provides that Stonegate will merge with and into Centennial (the “Merger”). Under the terms of the acquisition agreement, shareholders of Stonegate will receive, in the aggregate, proceeds from the transaction of approximately $749.8 million, consisting of $50.0 million in cash and $699.7 million of HBI common stock. In addition, the holders of outstanding stock options of Stonegate will receive approximately $28.6 million in cash in connection with the cancellation of their options immediately before the Merger, for a total transaction value of approximately $778.4 million. The number of shares of HBI common stock to be issued to Stonegate shareholders will be determined based on the volume-weighted average closing price per share of HBI common stock for the 20 consecutive trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the closing date (the “Average Closing Price”). In addition, if the Average Closing Price of HBI common stock as of the closing date is equal to $35.19 or greater or $22.52 or less, then the Average Closing Price will be fixed at $35.19 or $22.52, respectively. The acquisition is expected to close late in the fourth quarter of 2017, and is subject to the approval of the shareholders of the Company and Stonegate, regulatory approvals, and other customary conditions set forth in the agreement

As of March 31, 2017, Stonegate had approximately $3.24 billion in total assets, $2.48 billion in loans and $2.72 billion in customer deposits. Stonegate is conducting banking business from 25 locations in key Florida markets with significant presence in Broward and Sarasota counties.

Assets, principally investment securities, having a carrying value of approximately $1.01 billion and $1.07 billion at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, were pledged to secure public deposits and for other purposes required or permitted by law. Also, investment securities pledged as collateral for repurchase agreements totaled approximately $123.8 million and $121.3 million at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of securities classified as available-for-sale and held-to-maturity at March 31, 2017, by contractual maturity, are shown below. Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities because issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

	Available-for-Sale				Held-to-Maturity
	Amortized		Estimated		Amortized		Estimated
	Cost		Fair Value		Cost		Fair Value

Total	$	1,248,927	$	1,250,590	$	276,599	$	279,806

For purposes of the maturity tables, mortgage-backed securities, which are not due at a single maturity date, have been allocated over maturity groupings based on anticipated maturities. The mortgage-backed securities may mature earlier than their weighted-average contractual maturities because of principal prepayments.

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2017, approximately $15.2 million in available-for-sale securities were sold. The gross realized gains on the sales for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 totaled approximately $423,000. The income tax expense/benefit to net security gains and losses was 39.225% of the gross amounts.

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, approximately $1.4 million, in available-for-sale securities were sold. The gross realized gains on the sales for the three month period ended March 31, 2016 totaled approximately $10,000. The income tax expense/benefit to net security gains and losses was 39.225% of the gross amounts.

The Company evaluates all securities quarterly to determine if any unrealized losses are deemed to be other than temporary. In completing these evaluations the Company follows the requirements of FASB ASC 320, Investments – Debt and Equity Securities. Certain investment securities are valued less than their historical cost. These declines are primarily the result of the rate for these investments yielding less than current market rates. Based on evaluation of available evidence, management believes the declines in fair value for these securities are temporary. The Company does not intend to sell or believe it will be required to sell these investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be maturity. Should the impairment of any of these securities become other than temporary, the cost basis of the investment will be reduced and the resulting loss recognized in net income in the period the other-than-temporary impairment is identified.

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2017, no securities were deemed to have other-than-temporary impairment.

For the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company had investment securities with approximately $1.7 million in unrealized losses, which have been in continuous loss positions for more than twelve months. Excluding impairment write downs taken in prior periods, the Company’s assessments indicated that the cause of the market depreciation was primarily the change in interest rates and not the issuer’s financial condition, or downgrades by rating agencies. In addition, approximately 75.6% of the Company’s investment portfolio matures in five years or less. As a result, the Company has the ability and intent to hold such securities until maturity.

The following shows gross unrealized losses and estimated fair value of investment securities classified as available-for-sale and held-to-maturity with unrealized losses that are not deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired, aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual investment securities have been in a continuous loss position as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016:

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2017, the Company sold $4.0 million of the guaranteed portion of certain SBA loans, which resulted in a gain of approximately $188,000. During the three-month period ended March 31, 2016, no SBA loans were sold.

Mortgage loans held for sale of approximately $50.7 million and $56.2 million at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, are included in residential 1-4 family loans. Mortgage loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value, determined using an aggregate basis. Gains and losses resulting from sales of mortgage loans are recognized when the respective loans are sold to investors. Gains and losses are determined by the difference between the selling price and the carrying amount of the loans sold, net of discounts collected or paid. The Company obtains forward commitments to sell mortgage loans to reduce market risk on mortgage loans in the process of origination and mortgage loans held for sale. The forward commitments acquired by the Company for mortgage loans in process of origination are considered mandatory forward commitments. Because these commitments are structured on a mandatory basis, the Company is required to substitute another loan or to buy back the commitment if the original loan does not fund. These commitments are derivative instruments and their fair values at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 were not material.

We had $1.38 billion of purchased loans, which includes $104.5 million of discount for credit losses on purchased loans, at March 31, 2017. We have $40.0 million and $64.5 million remaining of non-accretable discount for credit losses on purchased loans and accretable discount for credit losses on purchased loans, respectively, as of March 31, 2017. We had $1.13 billion of purchased loans, which includes $100.1 million of discount for credit losses on purchased loans, at December 31, 2016. We have $35.3 million and $64.9 million remaining of non-accretable discount for credit losses on purchased loans and accretable discount for credit losses on purchased loans, respectively, as of December 31, 2016.

Note: Purchased credit impaired loans are accounted for on a pooled basis under ASC 310-30. All of these pools are currently considered to be performing resulting in none of the purchased credit impaired loans being classified as impaired loans as of December 31, 2016.

Interest recognized on impaired loans during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 was approximately $514,000 and $549,000, respectively. The amount of interest recognized on impaired loans on the cash basis is not materially different than the accrual basis.

Credit Quality Indicators. As part of the on-going monitoring of the credit quality of the Company’s loan portfolio, management tracks certain credit quality indicators including trends related to (i) the risk rating of loans, (ii) the level of classified loans, (iii) net charge-offs, (iv) non-performing loans and (v) the general economic conditions in Arkansas, Florida, Alabama and New York.

The Company utilizes a risk rating matrix to assign a risk rating to each of its loans. Loans are rated on a scale from 1 to 8. Descriptions of the general characteristics of the 8 risk ratings are as follows:

• Risk rating 1 – Excellent. Loans in this category are to persons or entities of unquestionable financial strength, a highly liquid financial position, with collateral that is liquid and well margined. These borrowers have performed without question on past obligations, and the Bank expects their performance to continue. Internally generated cash flow covers current maturities of long-term debt by a substantial margin. Loans secured by bank certificates of deposit and savings accounts, with appropriate holds placed on the accounts, are to be rated in this category.

• Risk rating 2 – Good. These are loans to persons or entities with strong financial condition and above-average liquidity that have previously satisfactorily handled their obligations with the Bank. Collateral securing the Bank’s debt is margined in accordance with policy guidelines. Internally generated cash flow covers current maturities of long-term debt more than adequately. Unsecured loans to individuals supported by strong financial statements and on which repayment is satisfactory may be included in this classification.

• Risk rating 3 – Satisfactory. Loans to persons or entities with an average financial condition, adequate collateral margins, adequate cash flow to service long-term debt, and net worth comprised mainly of fixed assets are included in this category. These entities are minimally profitable now, with projections indicating continued profitability into the foreseeable future. Closely held corporations or businesses where a majority of the profits are withdrawn by the owners or paid in dividends are included in this rating category. Overall, these loans are basically sound.

• Risk rating 4 – Watch. Borrowers who have marginal cash flow, marginal profitability or have experienced an unprofitable year and a declining financial condition characterize these loans. The borrower has in the past satisfactorily handled debts with the Bank, but in recent months has either been late, delinquent in making payments, or made sporadic payments. While the Bank continues to be adequately secured, margins have decreased or are decreasing, despite the borrower’s continued satisfactory condition. Other characteristics of borrowers in this class include inadequate credit information, weakness of financial statement and repayment capacity, but with collateral that appears to limit exposure. Included in this category are loans to borrowers in industries that are experiencing elevated risk.

• Risk rating 5 – Other Loans Especially Mentioned (“OLEM”). A loan criticized as OLEM has potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in the institution’s credit position at some future date. OLEM assets are not adversely classified and do not expose the institution to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification.

• Risk rating 6 – Substandard. A loan classified as substandard is inadequately protected by the sound worth and paying capacity of the borrower or the collateral pledged. Loss potential, while existing in the aggregate amount of substandard loans, does not have to exist in individual assets.

• Risk rating 7 – Doubtful. A loan classified as doubtful has all the weaknesses inherent in a loan classified as substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable. These are poor quality loans in which neither the collateral, if any, nor the financial condition of the borrower presently ensure collectability in full in a reasonable period of time; in fact, there is permanent impairment in the collateral securing the loan.

• Risk rating 8 – Loss. Assets classified as loss are considered uncollectible and of such little value that the continuance as bankable assets is not warranted. This classification does not mean that the asset has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but rather, it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off this basically worthless asset, even though partial recovery may occur in the future. This classification is based upon current facts, not probabilities. Assets classified as loss should be charged-off in the period in which they became uncollectible.

The Company’s classified loans include loans in risk ratings 6, 7 and 8. The following is a presentation of classified loans (excluding loans accounted for under ASC Topic 310-30) by class as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016:

Loans may be classified, but not considered impaired, due to one of the following reasons: (1) The Company has established minimum dollar amount thresholds for loan impairment testing. All loans over $2.0 million that are rated 5 – 8 are individually assessed for impairment on a quarterly basis. Loans rated 5 – 8 that fall under the threshold amount are not individually tested for impairment and therefore are not included in impaired loans; (2) of the loans that are above the threshold amount and tested for impairment, after testing, some are considered to not be impaired and are not included in impaired loans.

Changes in the carrying amount of the accretable yield for purchased credit impaired loans were as follows for the three-month period ended March 31, 2017 for the Company’s acquisitions:

	Accretable Yield			Carrying Amount of Loans

Balance at end of period	$	38,997		$	163,201

The loan pools were evaluated by the Company and are currently forecasted to have a slower run-off than originally expected. As a result, the Company has reforecast the total accretable yield expectations for those loan pools by $2.0 million. This updated forecast does not change the expected weighted average yields on the loan pools.

During the 2017 impairment tests on the estimated cash flows of loans, the Company established that several loan pools were determined to have a materially projected credit improvement. As a result of this improvement, the Company will recognize approximately $286,000 as an additional adjustment to yield over the weighted average life of the loans.

If the implied fair value of goodwill is lower than its carrying amount, goodwill impairment is indicated and goodwill is written down to its implied fair value. Subsequent increases in goodwill value are not recognized in the consolidated financial statements.

The Company holds $60.8 million of trust preferred securities which are currently callable without penalty based on the terms of the specific agreements. The trust preferred securities are tax-advantaged issues that qualify for Tier 1 capital treatment subject to certain limitations. Distributions on these securities are included in interest expense. Each of the trusts is a statutory business trust organized for the sole purpose of issuing trust securities and investing the proceeds in the Company’s subordinated debentures, the sole asset of each trust. The trust preferred securities of each trust represent preferred beneficial interests in the assets of the respective trusts and are subject to mandatory redemption upon payment of the subordinated debentures held by the trust. The Company wholly owns the common securities of each trust. Each trust’s ability to pay amounts due on the trust preferred securities is solely dependent upon the Company making payment on the related subordinated debentures. The Company’s obligations under the subordinated securities and other relevant trust agreements, in aggregate, constitute a full and unconditional guarantee by the Company of each respective trust’s obligations under the trust securities issued by each respective trust.

Common Stock

On April 21, 2016 at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Company, the shareholders approved, as proposed in the Proxy Statement, an amendment to the Company’s Restated Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from 100,000,000 to 200,000,000.

The Company also has the authority to issue up to 5,500,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share under the Company’s Restated Articles of Incorporation.

On April 21, 2016, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a two-for-one stock split to be paid in the form of a 100% stock dividend on June 8, 2016 (the “Payment Date”) to shareholders of record at the close of business on May 18, 2016. The additional shares were distributed by the Company’s transfer agent, Computershare, and the Company’s common stock began trading on a split-adjusted basis on the NASDAQ Global Select Market on or about June 9, 2016. All previously reported share and per share data included in filings subsequent to the Payment Date are restated to reflect the retroactive effect of this two-for-one stock split.

Stock Compensation Plans

The Company has a stock option and performance incentive plan known as the Amended and Restated 2006 Stock Option and Performance Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The purpose of the Plan is to attract and retain highly qualified officers, directors, key employees, and other persons, and to motivate those persons to improve the Company’s business results. On April 21, 2016 at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Company, the shareholders approved, as proposed in the Proxy Statement, an amendment to the Plan to increase the number of shares of the Company’s common stock available for issuance under the Plan by 2,000,000 shares (split adjusted) to 11,288,000 shares (split adjusted). The Plan provides for the granting of incentive and non-qualified stock options to and other equity awards, including the issuance of restricted shares. As of March 31, 2017, the maximum total number of shares of the Company’s common stock available for issuance under the Plan was 11,288,000 (split adjusted). At March 31, 2017, the Company had approximately 2,490,000 shares of common stock remaining available for future grants and approximately 4,778,000 shares of common stock reserved for issuance pursuant to outstanding awards under the Plan.

The intrinsic value of the stock options outstanding and stock options vested at March 31, 2017 was $26.1 million and $12.6 million, respectively. Total unrecognized compensation cost, net of income tax benefit, related to non-vested stock option awards, which are expected to be recognized over the vesting periods, was approximately $5.9 million as of March 31, 2017. For the first three months of 2017, the Company has expensed approximately $559,000 for the non-vested awards.

The table below summarizes the stock option transactions under the Plan at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 and changes during the three-month period and year then ended:

	For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2017					For the Year Ended December 31, 2016
	Shares (000)			Weighted- Average Exercisable Price		Shares (000)			Weighted- Average Exercisable Price

Exercisable, end of period		829			11.90		639		$	8.88

Stock-based compensation expense for stock-based compensation awards granted is based on the grant-date fair value. For stock option awards, the fair value is estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. This model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, changes to which can materially affect the fair value estimate. Additionally, there may be other factors that would otherwise have a significant effect on the value of employee stock options granted but are not considered by the model. Accordingly, while management believes that the Black-Scholes option-pricing model provides a reasonable estimate of fair value, the model does not necessarily provide the best single measure of fair value for the Company’s employee stock options. No options were granted during the three months ended March 31, 2017. The weighted-average fair value of options granted during the year ended December 31, 2016 was $5.08 per share (split adjusted). The fair value of each option granted is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model based on the weighted-average assumptions for expected dividend yield, expected stock price volatility, risk-free interest rate, and expected life of options granted.

	For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2017		For the Year Ended December 31, 2016
Expected dividend yield		Not applicable		1.65	%

Significant Estimates and Concentrations of Credit Risks

16.  Significant Estimates and Concentrations of Credit Risks

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require disclosure of certain significant estimates and current vulnerabilities due to certain concentrations. Estimates related to the allowance for loan losses and certain concentrations of credit risk are reflected in Note 5, while deposit concentrations are reflected in Note 8.

The Company’s primary market areas are in Arkansas, Florida, South Alabama and New York. The Company primarily grants loans to customers located within these markets unless the borrower has an established relationship with the Company.

The diversity of the Company’s economic base tends to provide a stable lending environment. Although the Company has a loan portfolio that is diversified in both industry and geographic area, a substantial portion of its debtors’ ability to honor their contracts is dependent upon real estate values, tourism demand and the economic conditions prevailing in its market areas.

Although the Company has a diversified loan portfolio, at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, commercial real estate loans represented 60.6% and 59.1% of total loans receivable, respectively, and 330.2% and 328.9% of total stockholders’ equity, respectively. Residential real estate loans represented 24.2% and 23.0% of total loans receivable and 131.7% and 127.8% of total stockholders’ equity at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

Approximately 85.9% of the Company’s total loans and 86.5% of the Company’s real estate loans as of March 31, 2017, are to borrowers whose collateral is located in Alabama, Arkansas, Florida and New York, the states in which the Company has its branch locations.

Although general economic conditions in our market areas have improved, both nationally and locally, over the past three years and have shown signs of continued improvement, financial institutions still face circumstances and challenges which, in some cases, have resulted and could potentially result, in large declines in the fair values of investments and other assets, constraints on liquidity and significant credit quality problems, including severe volatility in the valuation of real estate and other collateral supporting loans. The financial statements have been prepared using values and information currently available to the Company.

Any future volatility in the economy could cause the values of assets and liabilities recorded in the financial statements to change rapidly, resulting in material future adjustments in asset values, the allowance for loan losses and capital that could negatively impact the Company’s ability to meet regulatory capital requirements and maintain sufficient liquidity.

Commitments and Contingencies

17.  Commitments and Contingencies

In the ordinary course of business, the Company makes various commitments and incurs certain contingent liabilities to fulfill the financing needs of their customers. These commitments and contingent liabilities include lines of credit and commitments to extend credit and issue standby letters of credit. The Company applies the same credit policies and standards as they do in the lending process when making these commitments. The collateral obtained is based on the assessed creditworthiness of the borrower.

At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, commitments to extend credit of $1.96 billion and $1.82 billion, respectively, were outstanding. A percentage of these balances are participated out to other banks; therefore, the Company can call on the participating banks to fund future draws. Since some of these commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amount does not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

Outstanding standby letters of credit are contingent commitments issued by the Company, generally to guarantee the performance of a customer in third-party borrowing arrangements. The term of the guarantee is dependent upon the creditworthiness of the borrower, some of which are long-term. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, commercial real estate and residential real estate. Management uses the same credit policies in granting lines of credit as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments. The maximum amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these guarantees at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, is $43.6 million and $41.1 million, respectively.

The Company and/or its bank subsidiary have various unrelated legal proceedings, most of which involve loan foreclosure activity pending, which, in the aggregate, are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations or cash flows of the Company and its subsidiary.

Regulatory Matters

18.  Regulatory Matters

The Bank is subject to a legal limitation on dividends that can be paid to the parent company without prior approval of the applicable regulatory agencies. Arkansas bank regulators have specified that the maximum dividend limit state banks may pay to the parent company without prior approval is 75% of the current year earnings plus 75% of the retained net earnings of the preceding year. Since the Bank is also under supervision of the Federal Reserve, it is further limited if the total of all dividends declared in any calendar year by the Bank exceeds the Bank’s net profits to date for that year combined with its retained net profits for the preceding two years. During the first quarter of 2017, the Company requested approximately $12.6 million in regular dividends from its banking subsidiary. This dividend is equal to approximately 26.0% of the Company’s banking subsidiary’s first quarter 2017 earnings.

The Company’s banking subsidiary is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Company’s assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company’s capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors. Furthermore, the Company’s regulators could require adjustments to regulatory capital not reflected in the consolidated financial statements.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of total, common Tier 1 equity and Tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined) and of Tier 1 capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). Management believes that, as of March 31, 2017, the Company meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.

The Federal Reserve Board’s risk-based capital guidelines include the definitions for (1) a well-capitalized institution, (2) an adequately-capitalized institution, and (3) an undercapitalized institution. Under Basel III, the criteria for a well-capitalized institution are now: a 6.5% “common equity Tier 1 risk-based capital” ratio, a 5% “Tier 1 leverage capital” ratio, an 8% “Tier 1 risk-based capital” ratio, and a 10% “total risk-based capital” ratio. As of March 31, 2017, the Bank met the capital standards for a well-capitalized institution. The Company’s “common equity Tier 1 risk-based capital” ratio, “Tier 1 leverage capital” ratio, “Tier 1 risk-based capital” ratio, and “total risk-based capital” ratio were 11.39%, 10.88%, 12.06%, and 12.98%, respectively, as of March 31, 2017.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Financial Instruments

20.  Financial Instruments

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value measurements must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. There is a hierarchy of three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1	Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2	Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities
Level 3	Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities

Available-for-sale securities are the only material instruments valued on a recurring basis which are held by the Company at fair value. The Company does not have any Level 1 securities. Primarily all of the Company’s securities are considered to be Level 2 securities. These Level 2 securities consist primarily of U.S. government-sponsored enterprises, mortgage-backed securities plus state and political subdivisions. For these securities, the Company obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the bond’s terms and conditions, among other things. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, Level 3 securities were immaterial. In addition, there were no material transfers between hierarchy levels during 2017 and 2016.

The Company reviews the prices supplied by the independent pricing service, as well as their underlying pricing methodologies, for reasonableness and to ensure such prices are aligned with traditional pricing matrices. In general, the Company does not purchase investment portfolio securities with complicated structures. Pricing for the Company’s investment securities is fairly generic and is easily obtained.

Impaired loans that are collateral dependent are the only material financial assets valued on a non-recurring basis which are held by the Company at fair value. Loan impairment is reported when full payment under the loan terms is not expected. Impaired loans are carried at the net realizable value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. A portion of the allowance for loan losses is allocated to impaired loans if the value of such loans is deemed to be less than the unpaid balance. If these allocations cause the allowance for loan losses to require an increase, such increase is reported as a component of the provision for loan losses. The fair value of loans with specific allocated losses was $86.9 million and $91.5 million as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. This valuation is considered Level 3, consisting of appraisals of underlying collateral. The Company reversed approximately $165,000 and $68,000 of accrued interest receivable when impaired loans were put on non-accrual status during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Foreclosed assets held for sale are the only material non-financial assets valued on a non-recurring basis which are held by the Company at fair value, less estimated costs to sell. At foreclosure, if the fair value, less estimated costs to sell, of the real estate acquired is less than the Company’s recorded investment in the related loan, a write-down is recognized through a charge to the allowance for loan losses. Additionally, valuations are periodically performed by management and any subsequent reduction in value is recognized by a charge to income. The fair value of foreclosed assets held for sale is estimated using Level 3 inputs based on appraisals of underlying collateral. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the fair value of foreclosed assets held for sale, less estimated costs to sell, was $17.3 million and $16.0 million, respectively.

Foreclosed assets held for sale with a carrying value of approximately $2.1 million were remeasured during the three months ended March 31, 2017, resulting in a write-down of approximately $812,000.

Regulatory guidelines require us to reevaluate the fair value of foreclosed assets held for sale on at least an annual basis. Our policy is to comply with the regulatory guidelines.

The significant unobservable (Level 3) inputs used in the fair value measurement of collateral for collateral-dependent impaired loans and foreclosed assets primarily relate to customized discounting criteria applied to the customer’s reported amount of collateral. The amount of the collateral discount depends upon the condition and marketability of the underlying collateral. As the Company’s primary objective in the event of default would be to monetize the collateral to settle the outstanding balance of the loan, less marketable collateral would receive a larger discount. During the reported periods, collateral discounts ranged from 20% to 50% for commercial and residential real estate collateral.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating fair values of financial instruments as disclosed in these notes:

Cash and cash equivalents and federal funds sold – For these short-term instruments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Investment securities – held-to-maturity – These securities consist primarily of mortgage-backed securities plus state and political subdivisions. For these securities, the Company obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the bond’s terms and conditions, among other things.

Loans receivable, net of impaired loans and allowance – For variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are assumed to approximate the carrying amounts. The fair values for fixed-rate loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality. Loan fair value estimates include judgments regarding future expected loss experience and risk characteristics. Fair values for acquired loans are based on a discounted cash flow methodology that considers factors including the type of loan and related collateral, classification status, fixed or variable interest rate, term of loan, current discount rates and whether or not the loan is amortizing. Loans are grouped together according to similar characteristics and are treated in the aggregate when applying various valuation techniques. The discount rates used for loans are based on current market rates for new originations of comparable loans and include adjustments for liquidity concerns. The discount rate does not include a factor for credit losses as that has been included in the estimated cash flows.

FDIC indemnification asset – Although this asset is a contractual receivable from the FDIC, there is no effective interest rate. The Bank will collect this asset over the next several years. The amount ultimately collected will depend on the timing and amount of collections and charge-offs on the acquired assets covered by the loss sharing agreement.

Accrued interest receivable – The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable approximates its fair value.

Deposits and securities sold under agreements to repurchase – The fair values of demand deposits, savings deposits and securities sold under agreements to repurchase are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand and, therefore, approximate their carrying amounts. The fair values for time deposits are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that utilizes interest rates currently being offered on time deposits with similar contractual maturities.

FHLB and other borrowed funds – For short-term instruments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value. The fair value of long-term debt is estimated based on the current rates available to the Company for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities.

Accrued interest payable – The carrying amount of accrued interest payable approximates its fair value.

Subordinated debentures – The fair value of subordinated debentures is estimated using the rates that would be charged for subordinated debentures of similar remaining maturities.

Commitments to extend credit, letters of credit and lines of credit – The fair value of commitments is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the counterparties. For fixed-rate loan commitments, fair value also considers the difference between current levels of interest rates and the committed rates. The fair values of letters of credit and lines of credit are based on fees currently charged for similar agreements or on the estimated cost to terminate or otherwise settle the obligations with the counterparties at the reporting date. The fair value of these commitments is not material.

The following table presents the estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments. The fair values of certain of these instruments were calculated by discounting expected cash flows, which involves significant judgments by management and uncertainties. Fair value is the estimated amount at which financial assets or liabilities could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties other than in a forced or liquidation sale. Because no market exists for certain of these financial instruments and because management does not intend to sell these financial instruments, the Company does not know whether the fair values shown below represent values at which the respective financial instruments could be sold individually or in the aggregate.

Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract]

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

21.  Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). ASU 2014-09 provides guidance that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which defers the effective date of this standard to annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017; however, early adoption is permitted for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, which amends certain aspects of the guidance in ASU 2014-09 (FASB’s new revenue standard) on (1) identifying performance obligations and (2) licensing. ASU 2014-10’s effective date and transition provisions are aligned with the requirements in ASU 2014-09. In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients, which amends certain aspects of the FASB’s new revenue standard, ASU 2014-09. ASU 2016-12’s effective date and transition provisions are aligned with the requirements in ASU 2014-09

The guidance issued in ASU 2014-09, ASU 2015-14, ASU 2016-10 and ASU 2016-12 permit two implementation approaches, one requiring retrospective application of the new standard with restatement of prior years and one requiring prospective application of the new standard with disclosure of results under old standards. The Company plans to adopt the new standard effective January 1, 2018 and apply it prospectively. We are currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements. Only a portion of our revenues are impacted by this guidance because the guidance does not apply to revenue on contracts accounted for under the financial instruments or insurance contracts standards. Our evaluation process includes, but is not limited to, identifying contracts within the scope of the guidance, reviewing and documenting our accounting for these contracts, and identifying and determining the accounting for any related contract costs. We are also identifying and implementing changes to the Company’s business processes, systems and controls to support adoption of the new standard in 2018.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-12, Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period, impacting FASB ASC 860, Transfers and Servicing. Generally, an award with a performance target requires an employee also render service once the performance target is achieved. In some cases, however, the terms of an award may provide that the performance target could be achieved after an employee completes the requisite service period. The amendments in this update require that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. An entity should apply this guidance as it relates to awards with performance conditions that affect vesting to account for such awards. As such, the performance target should not be reflected in estimating the grant-date fair value of the award. Compensation cost should be recognized in the period in which it becomes probable that the performance target will be achieved and should represent the compensation cost attributable to the period for which the service has already been rendered. The amendments in this update became effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company adopted the new guidance on the consolidated financial statements, effective January 1, 2016, which made no impact to the Company’s financial position, results of operations or its financial statement disclosures.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis, which amends the consolidation requirements of ASU 810 by changing the consolidation analysis required under GAAP. The revised guidance amends the consolidation analysis based on certain fee arrangements or relationships to the reporting entity and, for limited partnerships, requires entities to consider the limited partner’s rights relative to the general partner. ASU 2015-02 became effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company adopted the new guidance on the consolidated financial statements, effective January 1, 2016, which made no impact to the Company’s financial position, results of operations or its financial statement disclosures.

In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-16, Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments. ASU 2015-16 requires entities to recognize measurement period adjustments during the reporting period in which the adjustments are determined. The income effects, if any, of a measurement period adjustment are cumulative and are to be reported in the period in which the adjustment to a provisional amount is determined. Also, ASU 2015-16 requires presentation on the face of the income statement or in the notes, the effect of the measurement period adjustment as if the adjustment had been recognized at acquisition date. ASU 2015-16 is effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2015 for public business entities and should be applied prospectively to measurement period adjustments that occur after the effective date. The Company adopted the new guidance on the consolidated financial statements, effective January 1, 2016, which made no impact to the Company’s financial position, results of operations or its financial statement disclosures.

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. Changes to the current GAAP model primarily affect the accounting for equity investments, financial liabilities under the fair value option, and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. In addition, ASU 2016-01 clarifies guidance related to the valuation allowance assessment when recognizing deferred tax assets resulting from unrealized losses on available-for-sale securities. The new guidance is effective for annual reporting period and interim reporting periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. Management is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance to the Company’s financial statements, but does not anticipate the guidance to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations as the Company’s equity investments are immaterial. However, the amendments will have an impact on certain items that are disclosed at fair value that are not currently utilizing the exit price notion when measuring fair value. At this time, the Company cannot quantify the change in the fair value of such disclosures since the Company is currently evaluating the full impact of the standards and is in the planning stages of developing appropriate procedures and processes to comply with the disclosure requirements of such amendments. The current accounting policies and procedures will be adjusted after the Company has fully evaluated the standard to comply with the accounting changes mentioned above. For additional information on fair value of assets and liabilities, see Note 20.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The amendments in ASU 2016-02 address several aspects of lease accounting with the significant change being the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities for leases previously classified as operating leases. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application of the amendments in ASU 2016-02 is permitted for all entities. The Company has several lease agreements for which the amendments will require the Company to recognize a lease liability to make lease payments and a right-of-use asset which will represent its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. The Company is currently reviewing the amendments to ensure it is fully compliant by the adoption date and doesn’t expect to early adopt. The impact is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations as the Company does not have a material amount of lease agreements. In addition, the Company will change its current accounting policies to comply with the amendments with such changes as mentioned above. For additional information on the Company’s leases, see Note 18 “Leases” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions for both public and nonpublic entities, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company adopted the amendments effective January 1, 2017. The Company has a stock-based compensation plan for which the ASU 2016-09 guidance results in the associated excess tax benefits or deficiencies being recognized as tax expense or benefit in the income statement instead of the previous accounting treatment, which requires excess tax benefits to be recognized as an adjustment to additional paid-in capital and excess tax deficiencies to be recognized as either an offset to accumulated excess tax benefits, if any, or to the income statement. In addition, such amounts are now classified as an operating activity in the statement of cash flows instead of the current accounting treatment, which required it to be classified as both an operating and a financing activity. The Company’s stock-based compensation plan has not historically generated material amounts of excess tax benefits or deficiencies and, therefore, the Company does not anticipate a material change in the Company’s financial position or results of operation as a result of the adoption of ASU 2016-09. The Company has implemented the new processes which did not result in a significant change. For additional information on the stock-based compensation plan, see Note 14.

In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-11, Revenue Recognition (Topic 605) and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Rescission of SEC Guidance Because of Accounting Standards Updates 2014-09 and 2014-16 Pursuant to Staff Announcements at the March 3, 2016 EITF Meeting (SEC Update), which rescinds certain SEC guidance from the FASB Accounting Standards Codification in response to announcements made by the SEC staff at the Emerging Issues Task Force’s (“EITF”) March 3, 2016, meeting. ASU 2016-11 is effective at the same time as ASU 2014-09 and ASU 2014-16. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, ASU 2016-11 will have on its financial position, results of operations, and its financial statement disclosures. Our evaluation process includes, but is not limited to, identifying transactions and accounts within the scope of the guidance, reviewing our accounting and disclosures for these transactions and accounts, and identifying and implementing any necessary changes to our accounting and disclosures as a result of the guidance. We are also identifying and implementing changes to the Company’s business processes, systems and controls to support adoption of the new standard.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which amends the FASB’s guidance on the impairment of financial instruments. The amendments in ASU 2016-13 replace the incurred loss model with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses over the life of the loan and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to calculate credit loss estimates, known as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model. Under the new guidance, an entity recognizes as an allowance its estimate of expected credit losses, which the FASB believes will result in more timely recognition of such losses. ASU 2016-13 is also intended to reduce the complexity of U.S. GAAP by decreasing the number of credit impairment models that entities use to account for debt instruments. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The allowance for loan losses is a material estimate of the Company and given the change from an incurred loss model to a methodology that considers the credit loss over the life of the loan, there is the potential for an increase in the allowance for loan losses at adoption date. The Company is anticipating a significant change in the processes and procedures to calculate the allowance for loan losses, including changes in assumptions and estimates to consider expected credit losses over the life of the loan versus the current accounting practice that utilizes the incurred loss model. The Company will also develop new procedures for determining an allowance for credit losses relating to held-to-maturity investment securities. In addition, the current accounting policy and procedures for other-than-temporary impairment on available-for-sale investment securities will be replaced with an allowance approach. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, ASU 2016-13 will have on its financial position and results of operations and currently does not know or cannot reasonably quantify the impact of the adoption of the amendments as a result of the complexity and extensive changes from the amendments. It is too early to assess the impact that the implementation of this guidance will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, however the Company has begun developing processes and procedures to ensure it is fully compliant with the amendments at the required adoption date. Among other things, we have initiated data gathering and assessment to support forecasting of asset quality, loan balances, and portfolio net charge-offs and have developed an in-house data warehouse as well as developed asset quality forecast models in preparation for the implementation of this standard. For additional information on the allowance for loan losses, see Note 5.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which amends the guidance in ASC 230 on the classification of certain cash receipts and payments in the statement of cash flows. The primary purpose of ASU 2016-15 is to reduce the diversity in practice that has resulted from the lack of consistent principles on this topic. ASU 2016-15’s amendments add or clarify guidance on eight cash flow issues including debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs; settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments or other debt instruments with coupon interest rates that are insignificant in relation to the effective interest rate of the borrowing; contingent consideration payments made after a business combination; proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims; proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies; including bank-owned life insurance policies; distributions received from equity method investees; beneficial interests in securitization transactions and separately identifiable cash flows and application of the predominance principle. ASU 2016-15 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted and the guidance must be applied retrospectively to all periods presented but may be applied prospectively from the earliest date practicable if retrospective application would be impracticable. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, ASU 2016-15 will have on its financial position, results of operations, and its financial statement disclosures. Our evaluation process includes, but is not limited to, identifying transactions and accounts within the scope of the guidance, reviewing our accounting and disclosures for these transactions and accounts, and identifying and implementing any necessary changes to our accounting and disclosures as a result of the guidance. We are also identifying and implementing changes to the Company’s business processes, systems and controls to support adoption of the new standard.

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory, which requires an entity to recognize the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs. The amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017, and should be applied on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment directly to retained earnings at the beginning period of adoption. Early adoption is permitted in the first interim period of an annual reporting period for which financial statements have not been issued. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, ASU 2016-16 will have on its financial position, results of operations, and its financial statement disclosure. Our evaluation process includes, but is not limited to, identifying transactions and accounts within the scope of the guidance, reviewing our accounting and disclosures for these transactions and accounts, and identifying and implementing any necessary changes to our accounting and disclosures as a result of the guidance. We are also identifying and implementing changes to the Company’s business processes, systems and controls to support adoption of the new standard.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force), which clarifies how entities should present restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows, and, as a result, entities will no longer present transfers between cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows. An entity with a material balance of restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents must disclose information about the nature of the restrictions. The new standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted and the new guidance must be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, ASU 2016-18 will have on its financial position, results of operations, and its financial statement disclosure. Our evaluation process includes, but is not limited to, identifying transactions and accounts within the scope of the guidance, reviewing our accounting and disclosures for these transactions and accounts, and identifying and implementing any necessary changes to our accounting and disclosures as a result of the guidance. We are also identifying and implementing changes to the Company’s business processes, systems and controls to support adoption of the new standard.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, which provides guidance to entities to assist with evaluating when a set of transferred assets and activities (collectively, the “set”) is a business and provides a screen to determine when a set is not a business. Under the new guidance, when substantially all of the fair value of gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset, or group of similar assets, the assets acquired would not represent a business. Also, to be considered a business, an acquisition would have to include an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to produce outputs. The new standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017, and should be applied on a prospective basis to any transactions occurring within the period of adoption. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual periods in which the financial statements have not been issued. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, ASU 2017-01 will have on its financial position, results of operations, and its financial statement disclosure. Our evaluation process includes, but is not limited to, identifying transactions and accounts within the scope of the guidance, reviewing our accounting and disclosures for these transactions and accounts, and identifying and implementing any necessary changes to our accounting and disclosures as a result of the guidance. We are also identifying and implementing changes to the Company’s business processes, systems and controls to support adoption of the new standard.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-03, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections (Topic 250) and Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323). The amendments in the update relate to SEC paragraphs pursuant to Staff Announcements at the September 22, 2016 and November 17, 2016 EITF meetings related to disclosure of the impact of recently issued accounting standards. The SEC staff’s view that a registrant should evaluate ASC updates that have not yet been adopted to determine the appropriate financial disclosures about the potential material effects of the updates on the financial statements when adopted. If a registrant does not know or cannot reasonably estimate the impact of an update, then in addition to making a statement to that effect, the registrant should consider additional qualitative financial statement disclosures to assist the reader in assessing the significance of the impact. The staff expects the additional qualitative disclosures to include a description of the effect of the accounting policies expected to be applied compared to current accounting policies. Also, the registrant should describe the status of its process to implement the new standards and the significant implementation matters yet to be addressed. The amendments specifically addressed recent ASC amendments to ASU 2016-02, Leases, and ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, although, the amendments apply to any subsequent amendments to guidance in the ASC. The Company adopted the amendments in this update during the fourth quarter of 2016 and appropriate disclosures have been included in this Note for each recently issued accounting standard.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which eliminates the requirement to determine the fair value of individual assets and liabilities of a reporting unit to measure goodwill impairment. Under the amendments in the new ASU, goodwill impairment testing will be performed by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount and recognizing an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The new standard is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and should be applied on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted for annual or interim goodwill impairment testing performed after January 1, 2017. The Company has goodwill from prior business combinations and performs an annual impairment test or more frequently if changes or circumstances occur that would more-likely-than-not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying value. During 2016, the Company performed its impairment assessment and determined the fair value of the aggregated reporting units exceed the carrying value, such that the Company’s goodwill was not considered impaired. Although the Company cannot anticipate future goodwill impairment assessments, based on the most recent assessment it is unlikely that an impairment amount would need to be calculated and, therefore, does not anticipate a material impact from these amendments to the Company’s financial position and results of operations. The current accounting policies and processes are not anticipated to change, except for the elimination of the Step 2 analysis.

In February 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-05, Other Income: Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets, which clarifies the scope of the Board’s guidance on nonfinancial asset derecognition (ASC 610-20) as well as the accounting for partial sales of nonfinancial assets. The ASU conforms the derecognition guidance on nonfinancial assets with the model for transactions in the new revenue standard (ASC 606, as amended). The ASU requires an entity to derecognize the nonfinancial asset or in-substance nonfinancial asset in a partial sale transaction when (1) the entity ceases to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary under ASC 810 and (2) control of the asset is transferred in accordance with ASC 606. The entity therefore has to consider repurchase agreements (e.g., a call option to repurchase the ownership interest in a subsidiary) in its assessment and may not be able to derecognize the nonfinancial assets, even though it no longer has a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary in accordance with ASC 810. The ASU illustrates the application of this guidance in ASC 610-20-55-15 and 55-16. The effective date of the new guidance is aligned with the requirements in the new revenue standard, which is effective for public entities for annual reporting periods (including interim reporting periods within those periods) beginning after December 15, 2017, and for nonpublic entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. If the entity decides to early adopt the ASU’s guidance, it must also early adopt ASC 606 (and vice versa). The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, ASU 2017-05 will have on its financial position, results of operations, and its financial statement disclosures. Our evaluation process includes, but is not limited to, identifying transactions and accounts within the scope of the guidance, reviewing our accounting and disclosures for these transactions and accounts, and identifying and implementing any necessary changes to our accounting and disclosures as a result of the guidance. We are also identifying and implementing changes to the Company’s business processes, systems and controls to support adoption of the new standard.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-08, Receivables – Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Topic 310): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities, which amends the amortization period for certain purchased callable debt securities held at a premium. This ASU will shorten the amortization period for the premium to be amortized to the earliest call date. This ASU does not apply to securities held at a discount, which will continue to be amortized to maturity. This ASU is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The guidance should be applied using a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment directly to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, ASU 2017-08 will have on its financial position, results of operations, and its financial statement disclosures. Our evaluation process includes, but is not limited to, identifying transactions and accounts within the scope of the guidance, reviewing our accounting and disclosures for these transactions and accounts, and identifying and implementing any necessary changes to our accounting and disclosures as a result of the guidance. We are also identifying and implementing changes to the Company’s business processes, systems and controls to support adoption of the new standard.

Subordinated Debt Issuance – On April 3, 2017 the Company completed an underwritten public offering of $300 million in aggregate principal amount of its 5.625% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes due 2027 (the “Notes”). The Notes were issued at 99.997% of par, resulting in net proceeds, after underwriting discounts, of approximately $297.2 million. The Notes are unsecured, subordinated debt obligations of the Company and will mature on April 15, 2027. From and including the date of issuance to, but excluding April 15, 2022, the Notes will bear interest at an initial rate of 5.625% per annum. From and including April 15, 2022 to, but excluding the maturity date or earlier redemption, the Notes will bear interest at a floating rate equal to three-month LIBOR as calculated on each applicable date of determination plus 3.575%; provided, however, that in the event three-month LIBOR is less than zero, then three-month LIBOR shall be deemed to be zero.

Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)

3 Months Ended

Mar. 31, 2017

Operating Segments

Operating Segments

Operating segments are components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Bank is the only significant subsidiary upon which management makes decisions regarding how to allocate resources and assess performance. Each of the branches of the Bank provide a group of similar community banking services, including such products and services as commercial, real estate and consumer loans, time deposits, checking and savings accounts. The individual bank branches have similar operating and economic characteristics. While the chief decision maker monitors the revenue streams of the various products, services and branch locations, operations are managed and financial performance is evaluated on a Company-wide basis. Accordingly, all of the community banking services and branch locations are considered by management to be aggregated into one reportable operating segment, community banking.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of investment securities, the valuation of foreclosed assets and the valuations of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations. In connection with the determination of the allowance for loan losses and the valuation of foreclosed assets, management obtains independent appraisals for significant properties.

Principles of Consolidation

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of HBI and its subsidiaries. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Reclassifications

Reclassifications

Various items within the accompanying consolidated financial statements for previous years have been reclassified to provide more comparative information. These reclassifications had no effect on net earnings or stockholders’ equity.

Interim financial information

Interim financial information

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2017 and 2016 have been prepared in condensed format, and therefore do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements.

The information furnished in these interim statements reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for each respective period presented. Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations in the interim statements are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other quarter or for the full year. The interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2016 Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Earnings per Share

Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed based on the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during each year, which have been restated to reflect the effect of the 2-for-1 stock split during June 2016. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted-average shares and all potential dilutive shares outstanding during the period. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) for the following periods:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2017		2016
	(In thousands)
Net income	$	46,856	$	41,427
Average shares outstanding		141,785		140,390
Effect of common stock based compensation		707		297
Average diluted shares outstanding		142,492		140,687
Basic earnings per share	$	0.33	$	0.30
Diluted earnings per share		0.33		0.29

Fair Value Measurement

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value measurements must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. There is a hierarchy of three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1	Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2	Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities
Level 3	Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities

Available-for-sale securities are the only material instruments valued on a recurring basis which are held by the Company at fair value. The Company does not have any Level 1 securities. Primarily all of the Company’s securities are considered to be Level 2 securities. These Level 2 securities consist primarily of U.S. government-sponsored enterprises, mortgage-backed securities plus state and political subdivisions. For these securities, the Company obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the bond’s terms and conditions, among other things. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, Level 3 securities were immaterial. In addition, there were no material transfers between hierarchy levels during 2017 and 2016.

The Company reviews the prices supplied by the independent pricing service, as well as their underlying pricing methodologies, for reasonableness and to ensure such prices are aligned with traditional pricing matrices. In general, the Company does not purchase investment portfolio securities with complicated structures. Pricing for the Company’s investment securities is fairly generic and is easily obtained.

Impaired loans that are collateral dependent are the only material financial assets valued on a non-recurring basis which are held by the Company at fair value. Loan impairment is reported when full payment under the loan terms is not expected. Impaired loans are carried at the net realizable value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. A portion of the allowance for loan losses is allocated to impaired loans if the value of such loans is deemed to be less than the unpaid balance. If these allocations cause the allowance for loan losses to require an increase, such increase is reported as a component of the provision for loan losses. The fair value of loans with specific allocated losses was $86.9 million and $91.5 million as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. This valuation is considered Level 3, consisting of appraisals of underlying collateral. The Company reversed approximately $165,000 and $68,000 of accrued interest receivable when impaired loans were put on non-accrual status during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Foreclosed assets held for sale are the only material non-financial assets valued on a non-recurring basis which are held by the Company at fair value, less estimated costs to sell. At foreclosure, if the fair value, less estimated costs to sell, of the real estate acquired is less than the Company’s recorded investment in the related loan, a write-down is recognized through a charge to the allowance for loan losses. Additionally, valuations are periodically performed by management and any subsequent reduction in value is recognized by a charge to income. The fair value of foreclosed assets held for sale is estimated using Level 3 inputs based on appraisals of underlying collateral. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the fair value of foreclosed assets held for sale, less estimated costs to sell, was $17.3 million and $16.0 million, respectively.

Foreclosed assets held for sale with a carrying value of approximately $2.1 million were remeasured during the three months ended March 31, 2017, resulting in a write-down of approximately $812,000.

Regulatory guidelines require us to reevaluate the fair value of foreclosed assets held for sale on at least an annual basis. Our policy is to comply with the regulatory guidelines.

The significant unobservable (Level 3) inputs used in the fair value measurement of collateral for collateral-dependent impaired loans and foreclosed assets primarily relate to customized discounting criteria applied to the customer’s reported amount of collateral. The amount of the collateral discount depends upon the condition and marketability of the underlying collateral. As the Company’s primary objective in the event of default would be to monetize the collateral to settle the outstanding balance of the loan, less marketable collateral would receive a larger discount. During the reported periods, collateral discounts ranged from 20% to 50% for commercial and residential real estate collateral.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating fair values of financial instruments as disclosed in these notes:

Cash and cash equivalents and federal funds sold – For these short-term instruments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Investment securities – held-to-maturity – These securities consist primarily of mortgage-backed securities plus state and political subdivisions. For these securities, the Company obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the bond’s terms and conditions, among other things.

Loans receivable, net of impaired loans and allowance – For variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are assumed to approximate the carrying amounts. The fair values for fixed-rate loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality. Loan fair value estimates include judgments regarding future expected loss experience and risk characteristics. Fair values for acquired loans are based on a discounted cash flow methodology that considers factors including the type of loan and related collateral, classification status, fixed or variable interest rate, term of loan, current discount rates and whether or not the loan is amortizing. Loans are grouped together according to similar characteristics and are treated in the aggregate when applying various valuation techniques. The discount rates used for loans are based on current market rates for new originations of comparable loans and include adjustments for liquidity concerns. The discount rate does not include a factor for credit losses as that has been included in the estimated cash flows.

FDIC indemnification asset – Although this asset is a contractual receivable from the FDIC, there is no effective interest rate. The Bank will collect this asset over the next several years. The amount ultimately collected will depend on the timing and amount of collections and charge-offs on the acquired assets covered by the loss sharing agreement.

Accrued interest receivable – The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable approximates its fair value.

Deposits and securities sold under agreements to repurchase – The fair values of demand deposits, savings deposits and securities sold under agreements to repurchase are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand and, therefore, approximate their carrying amounts. The fair values for time deposits are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that utilizes interest rates currently being offered on time deposits with similar contractual maturities.

FHLB and other borrowed funds – For short-term instruments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value. The fair value of long-term debt is estimated based on the current rates available to the Company for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities.

Accrued interest payable – The carrying amount of accrued interest payable approximates its fair value.

Subordinated debentures – The fair value of subordinated debentures is estimated using the rates that would be charged for subordinated debentures of similar remaining maturities.

Commitments to extend credit, letters of credit and lines of credit – The fair value of commitments is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the counterparties. For fixed-rate loan commitments, fair value also considers the difference between current levels of interest rates and the committed rates. The fair values of letters of credit and lines of credit are based on fees currently charged for similar agreements or on the estimated cost to terminate or otherwise settle the obligations with the counterparties at the reporting date. The fair value of these commitments is not material.

The following table presents the estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments. The fair values of certain of these instruments were calculated by discounting expected cash flows, which involves significant judgments by management and uncertainties. Fair value is the estimated amount at which financial assets or liabilities could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties other than in a forced or liquidation sale. Because no market exists for certain of these financial instruments and because management does not intend to sell these financial instruments, the Company does not know whether the fair values shown below represent values at which the respective financial instruments could be sold individually or in the aggregate.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). ASU 2014-09 provides guidance that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which defers the effective date of this standard to annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017; however, early adoption is permitted for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, which amends certain aspects of the guidance in ASU 2014-09 (FASB’s new revenue standard) on (1) identifying performance obligations and (2) licensing. ASU 2014-10’s effective date and transition provisions are aligned with the requirements in ASU 2014-09. In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients, which amends certain aspects of the FASB’s new revenue standard, ASU 2014-09. ASU 2016-12’s effective date and transition provisions are aligned with the requirements in ASU 2014-09

The guidance issued in ASU 2014-09, ASU 2015-14, ASU 2016-10 and ASU 2016-12 permit two implementation approaches, one requiring retrospective application of the new standard with restatement of prior years and one requiring prospective application of the new standard with disclosure of results under old standards. The Company plans to adopt the new standard effective January 1, 2018 and apply it prospectively. We are currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements. Only a portion of our revenues are impacted by this guidance because the guidance does not apply to revenue on contracts accounted for under the financial instruments or insurance contracts standards. Our evaluation process includes, but is not limited to, identifying contracts within the scope of the guidance, reviewing and documenting our accounting for these contracts, and identifying and determining the accounting for any related contract costs. We are also identifying and implementing changes to the Company’s business processes, systems and controls to support adoption of the new standard in 2018.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-12, Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period, impacting FASB ASC 860, Transfers and Servicing. Generally, an award with a performance target requires an employee also render service once the performance target is achieved. In some cases, however, the terms of an award may provide that the performance target could be achieved after an employee completes the requisite service period. The amendments in this update require that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. An entity should apply this guidance as it relates to awards with performance conditions that affect vesting to account for such awards. As such, the performance target should not be reflected in estimating the grant-date fair value of the award. Compensation cost should be recognized in the period in which it becomes probable that the performance target will be achieved and should represent the compensation cost attributable to the period for which the service has already been rendered. The amendments in this update became effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company adopted the new guidance on the consolidated financial statements, effective January 1, 2016, which made no impact to the Company’s financial position, results of operations or its financial statement disclosures.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis, which amends the consolidation requirements of ASU 810 by changing the consolidation analysis required under GAAP. The revised guidance amends the consolidation analysis based on certain fee arrangements or relationships to the reporting entity and, for limited partnerships, requires entities to consider the limited partner’s rights relative to the general partner. ASU 2015-02 became effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company adopted the new guidance on the consolidated financial statements, effective January 1, 2016, which made no impact to the Company’s financial position, results of operations or its financial statement disclosures.

In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-16, Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments. ASU 2015-16 requires entities to recognize measurement period adjustments during the reporting period in which the adjustments are determined. The income effects, if any, of a measurement period adjustment are cumulative and are to be reported in the period in which the adjustment to a provisional amount is determined. Also, ASU 2015-16 requires presentation on the face of the income statement or in the notes, the effect of the measurement period adjustment as if the adjustment had been recognized at acquisition date. ASU 2015-16 is effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2015 for public business entities and should be applied prospectively to measurement period adjustments that occur after the effective date. The Company adopted the new guidance on the consolidated financial statements, effective January 1, 2016, which made no impact to the Company’s financial position, results of operations or its financial statement disclosures.

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. Changes to the current GAAP model primarily affect the accounting for equity investments, financial liabilities under the fair value option, and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. In addition, ASU 2016-01 clarifies guidance related to the valuation allowance assessment when recognizing deferred tax assets resulting from unrealized losses on available-for-sale securities. The new guidance is effective for annual reporting period and interim reporting periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. Management is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance to the Company’s financial statements, but does not anticipate the guidance to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations as the Company’s equity investments are immaterial. However, the amendments will have an impact on certain items that are disclosed at fair value that are not currently utilizing the exit price notion when measuring fair value. At this time, the Company cannot quantify the change in the fair value of such disclosures since the Company is currently evaluating the full impact of the standards and is in the planning stages of developing appropriate procedures and processes to comply with the disclosure requirements of such amendments. The current accounting policies and procedures will be adjusted after the Company has fully evaluated the standard to comply with the accounting changes mentioned above. For additional information on fair value of assets and liabilities, see Note 20.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The amendments in ASU 2016-02 address several aspects of lease accounting with the significant change being the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities for leases previously classified as operating leases. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application of the amendments in ASU 2016-02 is permitted for all entities. The Company has several lease agreements for which the amendments will require the Company to recognize a lease liability to make lease payments and a right-of-use asset which will represent its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. The Company is currently reviewing the amendments to ensure it is fully compliant by the adoption date and doesn’t expect to early adopt. The impact is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations as the Company does not have a material amount of lease agreements. In addition, the Company will change its current accounting policies to comply with the amendments with such changes as mentioned above. For additional information on the Company’s leases, see Note 18 “Leases” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions for both public and nonpublic entities, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company adopted the amendments effective January 1, 2017. The Company has a stock-based compensation plan for which the ASU 2016-09 guidance results in the associated excess tax benefits or deficiencies being recognized as tax expense or benefit in the income statement instead of the previous accounting treatment, which requires excess tax benefits to be recognized as an adjustment to additional paid-in capital and excess tax deficiencies to be recognized as either an offset to accumulated excess tax benefits, if any, or to the income statement. In addition, such amounts are now classified as an operating activity in the statement of cash flows instead of the current accounting treatment, which required it to be classified as both an operating and a financing activity. The Company’s stock-based compensation plan has not historically generated material amounts of excess tax benefits or deficiencies and, therefore, the Company does not anticipate a material change in the Company’s financial position or results of operation as a result of the adoption of ASU 2016-09. The Company has implemented the new processes which did not result in a significant change. For additional information on the stock-based compensation plan, see Note 14.

In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-11, Revenue Recognition (Topic 605) and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Rescission of SEC Guidance Because of Accounting Standards Updates 2014-09 and 2014-16 Pursuant to Staff Announcements at the March 3, 2016 EITF Meeting (SEC Update), which rescinds certain SEC guidance from the FASB Accounting Standards Codification in response to announcements made by the SEC staff at the Emerging Issues Task Force’s (“EITF”) March 3, 2016, meeting. ASU 2016-11 is effective at the same time as ASU 2014-09 and ASU 2014-16. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, ASU 2016-11 will have on its financial position, results of operations, and its financial statement disclosures. Our evaluation process includes, but is not limited to, identifying transactions and accounts within the scope of the guidance, reviewing our accounting and disclosures for these transactions and accounts, and identifying and implementing any necessary changes to our accounting and disclosures as a result of the guidance. We are also identifying and implementing changes to the Company’s business processes, systems and controls to support adoption of the new standard.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which amends the FASB’s guidance on the impairment of financial instruments. The amendments in ASU 2016-13 replace the incurred loss model with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses over the life of the loan and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to calculate credit loss estimates, known as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model. Under the new guidance, an entity recognizes as an allowance its estimate of expected credit losses, which the FASB believes will result in more timely recognition of such losses. ASU 2016-13 is also intended to reduce the complexity of U.S. GAAP by decreasing the number of credit impairment models that entities use to account for debt instruments. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The allowance for loan losses is a material estimate of the Company and given the change from an incurred loss model to a methodology that considers the credit loss over the life of the loan, there is the potential for an increase in the allowance for loan losses at adoption date. The Company is anticipating a significant change in the processes and procedures to calculate the allowance for loan losses, including changes in assumptions and estimates to consider expected credit losses over the life of the loan versus the current accounting practice that utilizes the incurred loss model. The Company will also develop new procedures for determining an allowance for credit losses relating to held-to-maturity investment securities. In addition, the current accounting policy and procedures for other-than-temporary impairment on available-for-sale investment securities will be replaced with an allowance approach. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, ASU 2016-13 will have on its financial position and results of operations and currently does not know or cannot reasonably quantify the impact of the adoption of the amendments as a result of the complexity and extensive changes from the amendments. It is too early to assess the impact that the implementation of this guidance will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, however the Company has begun developing processes and procedures to ensure it is fully compliant with the amendments at the required adoption date. Among other things, we have initiated data gathering and assessment to support forecasting of asset quality, loan balances, and portfolio net charge-offs and have developed an in-house data warehouse as well as developed asset quality forecast models in preparation for the implementation of this standard. For additional information on the allowance for loan losses, see Note 5.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which amends the guidance in ASC 230 on the classification of certain cash receipts and payments in the statement of cash flows. The primary purpose of ASU 2016-15 is to reduce the diversity in practice that has resulted from the lack of consistent principles on this topic. ASU 2016-15’s amendments add or clarify guidance on eight cash flow issues including debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs; settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments or other debt instruments with coupon interest rates that are insignificant in relation to the effective interest rate of the borrowing; contingent consideration payments made after a business combination; proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims; proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies; including bank-owned life insurance policies; distributions received from equity method investees; beneficial interests in securitization transactions and separately identifiable cash flows and application of the predominance principle. ASU 2016-15 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted and the guidance must be applied retrospectively to all periods presented but may be applied prospectively from the earliest date practicable if retrospective application would be impracticable. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, ASU 2016-15 will have on its financial position, results of operations, and its financial statement disclosures. Our evaluation process includes, but is not limited to, identifying transactions and accounts within the scope of the guidance, reviewing our accounting and disclosures for these transactions and accounts, and identifying and implementing any necessary changes to our accounting and disclosures as a result of the guidance. We are also identifying and implementing changes to the Company’s business processes, systems and controls to support adoption of the new standard.

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory, which requires an entity to recognize the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs. The amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017, and should be applied on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment directly to retained earnings at the beginning period of adoption. Early adoption is permitted in the first interim period of an annual reporting period for which financial statements have not been issued. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, ASU 2016-16 will have on its financial position, results of operations, and its financial statement disclosure. Our evaluation process includes, but is not limited to, identifying transactions and accounts within the scope of the guidance, reviewing our accounting and disclosures for these transactions and accounts, and identifying and implementing any necessary changes to our accounting and disclosures as a result of the guidance. We are also identifying and implementing changes to the Company’s business processes, systems and controls to support adoption of the new standard.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force), which clarifies how entities should present restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows, and, as a result, entities will no longer present transfers between cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows. An entity with a material balance of restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents must disclose information about the nature of the restrictions. The new standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted and the new guidance must be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, ASU 2016-18 will have on its financial position, results of operations, and its financial statement disclosure. Our evaluation process includes, but is not limited to, identifying transactions and accounts within the scope of the guidance, reviewing our accounting and disclosures for these transactions and accounts, and identifying and implementing any necessary changes to our accounting and disclosures as a result of the guidance. We are also identifying and implementing changes to the Company’s business processes, systems and controls to support adoption of the new standard.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, which provides guidance to entities to assist with evaluating when a set of transferred assets and activities (collectively, the “set”) is a business and provides a screen to determine when a set is not a business. Under the new guidance, when substantially all of the fair value of gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset, or group of similar assets, the assets acquired would not represent a business. Also, to be considered a business, an acquisition would have to include an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to produce outputs. The new standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017, and should be applied on a prospective basis to any transactions occurring within the period of adoption. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual periods in which the financial statements have not been issued. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, ASU 2017-01 will have on its financial position, results of operations, and its financial statement disclosure. Our evaluation process includes, but is not limited to, identifying transactions and accounts within the scope of the guidance, reviewing our accounting and disclosures for these transactions and accounts, and identifying and implementing any necessary changes to our accounting and disclosures as a result of the guidance. We are also identifying and implementing changes to the Company’s business processes, systems and controls to support adoption of the new standard.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-03, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections (Topic 250) and Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323). The amendments in the update relate to SEC paragraphs pursuant to Staff Announcements at the September 22, 2016 and November 17, 2016 EITF meetings related to disclosure of the impact of recently issued accounting standards. The SEC staff’s view that a registrant should evaluate ASC updates that have not yet been adopted to determine the appropriate financial disclosures about the potential material effects of the updates on the financial statements when adopted. If a registrant does not know or cannot reasonably estimate the impact of an update, then in addition to making a statement to that effect, the registrant should consider additional qualitative financial statement disclosures to assist the reader in assessing the significance of the impact. The staff expects the additional qualitative disclosures to include a description of the effect of the accounting policies expected to be applied compared to current accounting policies. Also, the registrant should describe the status of its process to implement the new standards and the significant implementation matters yet to be addressed. The amendments specifically addressed recent ASC amendments to ASU 2016-02, Leases, and ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, although, the amendments apply to any subsequent amendments to guidance in the ASC. The Company adopted the amendments in this update during the fourth quarter of 2016 and appropriate disclosures have been included in this Note for each recently issued accounting standard.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which eliminates the requirement to determine the fair value of individual assets and liabilities of a reporting unit to measure goodwill impairment. Under the amendments in the new ASU, goodwill impairment testing will be performed by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount and recognizing an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The new standard is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and should be applied on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted for annual or interim goodwill impairment testing performed after January 1, 2017. The Company has goodwill from prior business combinations and performs an annual impairment test or more frequently if changes or circumstances occur that would more-likely-than-not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying value. During 2016, the Company performed its impairment assessment and determined the fair value of the aggregated reporting units exceed the carrying value, such that the Company’s goodwill was not considered impaired. Although the Company cannot anticipate future goodwill impairment assessments, based on the most recent assessment it is unlikely that an impairment amount would need to be calculated and, therefore, does not anticipate a material impact from these amendments to the Company’s financial position and results of operations. The current accounting policies and processes are not anticipated to change, except for the elimination of the Step 2 analysis.

In February 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-05, Other Income: Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets, which clarifies the scope of the Board’s guidance on nonfinancial asset derecognition (ASC 610-20) as well as the accounting for partial sales of nonfinancial assets. The ASU conforms the derecognition guidance on nonfinancial assets with the model for transactions in the new revenue standard (ASC 606, as amended). The ASU requires an entity to derecognize the nonfinancial asset or in-substance nonfinancial asset in a partial sale transaction when (1) the entity ceases to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary under ASC 810 and (2) control of the asset is transferred in accordance with ASC 606. The entity therefore has to consider repurchase agreements (e.g., a call option to repurchase the ownership interest in a subsidiary) in its assessment and may not be able to derecognize the nonfinancial assets, even though it no longer has a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary in accordance with ASC 810. The ASU illustrates the application of this guidance in ASC 610-20-55-15 and 55-16. The effective date of the new guidance is aligned with the requirements in the new revenue standard, which is effective for public entities for annual reporting periods (including interim reporting periods within those periods) beginning after December 15, 2017, and for nonpublic entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. If the entity decides to early adopt the ASU’s guidance, it must also early adopt ASC 606 (and vice versa). The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, ASU 2017-05 will have on its financial position, results of operations, and its financial statement disclosures. Our evaluation process includes, but is not limited to, identifying transactions and accounts within the scope of the guidance, reviewing our accounting and disclosures for these transactions and accounts, and identifying and implementing any necessary changes to our accounting and disclosures as a result of the guidance. We are also identifying and implementing changes to the Company’s business processes, systems and controls to support adoption of the new standard.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-08, Receivables – Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Topic 310): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities, which amends the amortization period for certain purchased callable debt securities held at a premium. This ASU will shorten the amortization period for the premium to be amortized to the earliest call date. This ASU does not apply to securities held at a discount, which will continue to be amortized to maturity. This ASU is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The guidance should be applied using a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment directly to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, ASU 2017-08 will have on its financial position, results of operations, and its financial statement disclosures. Our evaluation process includes, but is not limited to, identifying transactions and accounts within the scope of the guidance, reviewing our accounting and disclosures for these transactions and accounts, and identifying and implementing any necessary changes to our accounting and disclosures as a result of the guidance. We are also identifying and implementing changes to the Company’s business processes, systems and controls to support adoption of the new standard.

Business Combinations

The Company has determined that the acquisition of the net assets of GHI constitutes a business combination as defined by the ASC Topic 805. Accordingly, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are presented at their fair values as required. Fair values were determined based on the requirements of ASC Topic 820. In many cases, the determination of these fair values required management to make estimates about discount rates, future expected cash flows, market conditions and other future events that are highly subjective in nature and subject to change.

Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs

The Company evaluated $106.8 million of the loans purchased in conjunction with the acquisition in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 310-20, Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs, which were recorded with a $3.0 million discount. As a result, the fair value discount on these loans is being accreted into interest income over the weighted average life of the loans using a constant yield method.

Loans may be classified, but not considered impaired, due to one of the following reasons: (1) The Company has established minimum dollar amount thresholds for loan impairment testing. All loans over $2.0 million that are rated 5 – 8 are individually assessed for impairment on a quarterly basis. Loans rated 5 – 8 that fall under the threshold amount are not individually tested for impairment and therefore are not included in impaired loans; (2) of the loans that are above the threshold amount and tested for impairment, after testing, some are considered to not be impaired and are not included in impaired loans.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Estimated Fair Values of Financial Instruments

The following table presents the estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments. The fair values of certain of these instruments were calculated by discounting expected cash flows, which involves significant judgments by management and uncertainties. Fair value is the estimated amount at which financial assets or liabilities could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties other than in a forced or liquidation sale. Because no market exists for certain of these financial instruments and because management does not intend to sell these financial instruments, the Company does not know whether the fair values shown below represent values at which the respective financial instruments could be sold individually or in the aggregate.
