SUBSEQUENT EVENTS	SUBSEQUENT EVENTS On October 25, 2018, the Company announced that its Board of Directors has authorized the Company to repurchase up to $100.0 million of its outstanding common stock. Repurchases of shares, which are authorized to occur over the next twelve months, will be made in accordance with applicable securities laws and may be made from time to time in the open market or by negotiated transactions. The amount and timing of repurchases will be based on a variety of factors, including share acquisition price, regulatory limitations and other market and economic factors. The program does not require the Company to repurchase any specific number of shares. On October 10, 2018, Hurricane Michael hit the Gulf Coast of the Florida Panhandle as a high-end Category 4 hurricane with sustained winds exceeding 150 mph as it made landfall near Mexico Beach, Florida. In Florida, Mexico Beach, Panama City and Lynn Haven suffered significant damage due to the extreme winds and storm surge, causing heavy damage to homes and buildings, as well as knocking down trees and power lines. On October 11, 2018 , the following five Florida counties were declared major disaster counties by the President of the United States: Bay, Franklin, Gulf, Taylor and Wakulla. The storm weakened as it began to take a northeastward trajectory across the inner Southeastern United States. However, Hurricane Michael reached the Georgia state border as a Category 3 hurricane. Agriculture across Georgia suffered significant losses, especially cotton and pecan crops. Management continues to evaluate the financial impact of Hurricane Michael to be recorded in the fourth quarter of 2018. This assessment includes the increased credit risk stemming from loans secured by real estate, agricultural loans, consumer installment home improvement loans, as well as the general economic impact to the impacted areas. The assessment also includes damage to bank branch locations and equipment not expected to be covered by insurance, business interruption to certain bank branch locations due to loss of power or network connectivity, employee assistance, refund of overdraft fees and ATM fees and other community outreach programs. Although management’s assessment was not finalized at the time of this filing, the total financial impact of Hurricane Michael expected to be recorded in the fourth quarter of 2018 is currently projected on a pre-tax basis to be in the range of $1.5 million to $2.3 million.
