Forward-Looking
Statements
Forward-Looking
Statements
During this presentation we may make forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements provide projections of results of operations or of financial
condition or state other forward-looking information, such as expectations about future
conditions and descriptions of plans and strategies for the future. Hancock’s ability to
accurately project results or predict the effects of future plans or strategies is inherently
limited. 
We believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are based on
reasonable assumptions, but actual results and performance could
differ materially from
those set forth in the forward-looking statements.  Factors that could cause actual results
to differ from those expressed in the Company's forward-looking statements include, but
are not limited to, those outlined in Hancock's SEC filings, including the “Risk Factors”
section of the Company’s form 10-K and 10-Q. 
Hancock does not intend, and undertakes no obligation, to update
or revise any forward-
looking statements, and you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-
looking statements.

Net Interest Margin
Net Interest Margin
Net interest margin 4.43% up 4bps
linked-quarter
Approximately 43bps of the NIM was related to
net accretion of Whitney purchase accounting
adjustments
Accretion amounts are reevaluated quarterly
Reflects a favorable shift in funding
sources, a decline in funding costs,
offset by a decline in  loan yields
Expect the NIM will remain relatively
stable over the next couple of quarters
Deployment of excess liquidity and CD repricing
will continue to favorably impact margin and help
offset earning asset repricing headwinds
* Excludes impact of Whitney purchase accounting adjustments

(a) Net income less tax-effected merger costs and securities gains/losses. Management believes that this is a useful financial measure because it
enables investors to assess ongoing operations.
(b)  Pre-tax pre-provision profit (PTPP) is total revenue less noninterest expense, merger items, and securities transactions. Management believes that
PTPP profit is a useful financial measure because it enables investors and others to assess the Company’s ability to generate capital to cover credit
losses through a credit cycle.
