EXHIBIT 99.1
MEMPHIS, Tenn., July 17, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Earnings per share grew 22 percent from last quarter at First Horizon National Corp. (NYSE:FHN) – to $0.22 in the second quarter from first quarter's adjusted EPS of $0.181 – driven by growth in loans, deposits and revenue at its First Tennessee regional bank.
"Over the past few quarters we have seen our momentum build in the local communities we serve. Our bankers continue to build relationships with new and existing customers to support that growing momentum, particularly in Nashville, Chattanooga and the Carolinas," said First Horizon Chairman and CEO Bryan Jordan. "Our results reflect the hard work of our team and the strength of our franchise."

Use of non-GAAP measures
Certain measures are included in this release that are non-GAAP, meaning they are not presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the U.S. First Horizon's management believes such measures are relevant to understanding the results of the company. The non-GAAP items presented in this release are net income available to common excluding litigation charges and diluted earnings per share excluding litigation charges. These measures are reported to First Horizon's management and board of directors through various internal reports. Non-GAAP measures are not formally defined by GAAP or codified in the federal banking regulations, and other entities may use calculation methods that differ from those used by First Horizon. The reconciliation of non-GAAP to GAAP measures and presentation of the most comparable GAAP items can be found in this table:

Adjusted net income/(loss) available to common shareholders (Non-GAAP) | $41,772 |
Adjusted diluted shares (thousands) (Non-GAAP) (b) | 235,120 |
Adjusted diluted EPS (Non-GAAP) | $0.18 |
(a) Calculated using an effective tax rate of 32.07 percent. | |
(b) Because FHN recognized a net loss available to common shareholder in first quarter 2015, potentially issuable shares are excluded from diluted shares because they are antidilutive. Excluding the litigation charge, FHN would have recognized net income available to common shareholders. As a result, adjusted shares are presented in order to include the dilutive impact of potentially issuable shares. |
