Hancock Holding Company and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Hancock Holding Company and all majority-owned subsidiaries (the “Company”). They include all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Some financial information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted in this Form 10-Q pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Financial information reported in these financial statements is not necessarily indicative of the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows for any other interim or annual periods.
Use of Estimates
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and with general practices followed by the banking industry. These accounting principles require management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying footnotes. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
There have been no material changes or developments underlying assumption or methodologies that the Company uses when applying what management believes are critical accounting policies and estimates and developing critical accounting estimates as disclosed in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
Securities
Securities that the Company both positively intends and has the ability to hold to maturity are classified as securities held to maturity and are carried at amortized cost. The intent and ability to hold are not considered satisfied when a security is available to be sold in response to changes in interest rates, prepayment rates, liquidity needs or other reasons as part of an overall asset/liability management strategy.
Premiums and discounts on securities, both those held to maturity and those available for sale, are amortized and accreted to income as an adjustment to the securities’ yields using the interest method. Realized gains and losses on securities, including declines in value judged to be other than temporary, are reported net as a component of noninterest income. The cost of securities sold is specifically identified for use in calculating realized gains and losses.
2. Fair Value
The FASB defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The FASB’s guidance also established a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to these valuation techniques used to measure fair value, giving preference to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs such as a reporting entity’s own data (level 3). Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, observable inputs other than quoted prices, such as interest rates and yield curves, and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

2. Fair Value (continued)
Securities classified as level 1 within the valuation hierarchy include U.S. Treasury securities, obligations of U.S. Government-sponsored agencies, and certain other debt and equity securities. Level 2 classified securities include mortgage-backed debt securities and collateralized mortgage obligations that are issued or guaranteed by U.S. government agencies, and state and municipal bonds. The level 2 fair value measurements for investment securities were obtained from a third-party pricing service that uses industry-standard pricing models. Substantially all of the model inputs were observable in the marketplace or can be supported by observable data. The Company invests only in high quality securities of investment grade quality with a targeted duration, for the overall portfolio, generally between two to five years. Company policies limit investments to securities having a rating of no less than “Baa”, or its equivalent by a nationally recognized statistical rating agency, except for certain non-rated obligations of counties, parishes and municipalities within our markets in Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, Florida and Alabama. There were no transfers between valuation hierarchy levels during the periods shown.
The fair value of derivative financial instruments, which are predominantly interest rate swaps, is obtained from a third-party pricing service that uses an industry-standard discounted cash flow model that relies on inputs, such as interest rate futures, observable in the marketplace. To comply with the accounting guidance, credit valuation adjustments are incorporated in the fair values to appropriately reflect nonperformance risk for both the Company and the counterparties. Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value the derivative instruments fall within level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit value adjustments utilize level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads. The Company has determined that the impact of the credit valuation adjustments is not significant to the overall valuation of these derivatives. As a result, the Company has classified its derivative valuations in their entirety in level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The Company’s policy is to measure counterparty credit risk for all derivative instruments subject to master netting arrangements consistent with how market participants would price the net risk exposure at the measurement date.

2. Fair Value (continued)
Fair Value of Assets Measured on a Nonrecurring Basis
Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Collateral-dependent impaired loans are level 2 assets measured using third-party appraisals of the collateral or other market-based information such as recent sales activity for similar assets in the property’s market. Other real estate owned are level 2 assets carried at the balance of the loan or at estimated fair value less estimated selling costs, whichever is less. Fair values are determined by sales agreement or third-party appraisal.

2. Fair Value (continued)
Accounting guidance from the FASB requires the disclosure of estimated fair value information about certain on- and off- balance sheet financial instruments, including those financial instruments that are not measured and reported at fair value on a recurring basis. The significant methods and assumptions used by the Company to estimate the fair value of financial instruments are discussed below.
Cash, Short-Term Investments and Federal Funds Sold - For those short-term instruments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.
Securities - The fair values measurement for securities available for sale was discussed earlier. The same measurement techniques were applied to the valuation of securities held to maturity.
Loans, Net - The fair value measurement for certain impaired loans was discussed earlier. For the remaining portfolio, fair values were generally determined by discounting scheduled cash flows by discount rates determined with reference to current market rates at which loans with similar terms would be made to borrowers of similar credit quality.
Accrued Interest Receivable and Accrued Interest Payable -The carrying amounts are a reasonable estimate of their fair values.
Deposits - The accounting guidance requires that the fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, such as noninterest-bearing demand deposits, interest-bearing checking and savings accounts, be assigned fair values equal to amounts payable upon demand (carrying amounts). The fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.
Securities Sold under Agreements to Repurchase and, Federal Funds Purchased - For these short-term liabilities, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.
Long-Term Debt
- The fair value is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows using current market
rates at which similar notes over the same remaining term could be obtained.
Derivative Financial Instruments - The fair value measurement for derivative financial instrument was discussed earlier.

During the first quarter of 2012, the Company reclassified approximately $1.5 billion of securities available for sale as securities held to maturity. As a result of the acquisition of Whitney National Bank, the securities portfolio grew to such a size that the company determined that only a portion of the portfolio is needed for liquidity purposes. The securities reclassified consisted primarily of CMOs and in-market municipal securities. The securities were transferred at fair value, which became the cost basis for the securities held to maturity. The unrealized net holding gain on the available for sale securities on the date of transfer totaled approximately $39 million, and continues to be reported, net of tax, as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. This net unrealized gain will be accreted to interest income over the remaining life of the securities as a yield adjustment, which will serve to offset the impact of the amortization of the net premium created in the transfer. There were no gains or losses recognized as a result of this transfer.

Substantially all of the unrealized losses relate mainly to changes in market rates on fixed-rate debt securities since the respective purchase date. In all cases, the indicated impairment would be recovered by the security’s maturity date or possibly earlier if the market price for the security increases with a reduction in the yield required by the market. None of the unrealized losses relate to the marketability of the securities or the issuer’s ability to honor redemption of the obligations. The Company has adequate liquidity and, therefore, does not plan to sell and, more likely than not, will not be required to sell these securities before recovery of the indicated impairment. Accordingly, the unrealized losses on these securities have been determined to be temporary.
Securities with a fair value of approximately $2.7 billion at March 31, 2012 and $3.0 billion at December 31, 2011 were pledged primarily to secure public deposits or securities sold under agreements to repurchase.

4. Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses (continued)
The following briefly describes the distinction between originated, acquired and covered loans and certain significant accounting policies relevant to each category.
Originated loans
Loans originated for investment are reported at the principal balance outstanding net of unearned income. Interest on loans and accretion of unearned income are computed in a manner that approximates a level yield on recorded principal. Interest on loans is recognized in income as earned. The accrual of interest on originated loans is discontinued when it is probable that the borrower will be unable to meet payment obligations as they become due. The Company maintains an allowance for loan losses on originated loans that represents management’s estimate of probable losses inherent in this portfolio category. The methodology for estimating the allowance is described in Note 1 to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. As actual losses are incurred, they are charged against the allowance. Subsequent recoveries are added back to the allowance when collected.
Acquired loans
Acquired loans are those purchased in the Whitney Holding Corporation acquisition on June 4, 2011. These loans were recorded at estimated fair value at the acquisition date with no carryover of the related allowance for loan losses. The acquired loans were segregated between those considered to be performing (“acquired performing”) and those with evidence of credit deterioration (“acquired impaired”), and then further segregated into pools using common risk characteristics, such as loan type, geography and risk rating. The fair value estimate for each pool was based on an estimate of cash flows, both principal and interest, expected to be collected from that pool, discounted at prevailing market rates of interest. Each pool is accounted for as a single asset with a single composite interest rate and an aggregate expectation of cash flows.
The difference between the fair value of a acquired performing loan pool and the contractual amounts due at the acquisition date (the “fair value discount”) is accreted into income over the estimated life of the pool. Management estimates an allowance for loan losses for acquired performing loans at each subsequent reporting date using a methodology similar to that used for originated loans. The allowance determined for each loan pool is compared to the remaining fair value discount for that pool. If greater, the excess is added to the reported allowance through a provision for loan losses. If less, no additional allowance or provision is recognized. Actual losses are first charged against any remaining fair value discount for the loan pool. Once the discount is fully depleted, losses are applied against the allowance established for that pool.
The excess of cash flows expected to be collected from an acquired impaired loan pool over the pool’s estimated fair value at acquisition is referred to as the accretable yield and is recognized in interest income using an effective yield method over the remaining life of the pool. Management updates the estimate of cash flows expected to be collected on each acquired impaired loan pool at each reporting date. If expected cash flows for a pool decrease, an increase in the reported allowance for loan losses is made through a provision for loan losses. If expected cash flows for a pool increase, any previously established allowance for loan losses is reversed and any remaining difference increases the accretable yield which will be taken into interest income over the remaining life of the loan pool.
Covered loans and the related loss share indemnification asset
The loans purchased in the 2009 acquisition of Peoples First Community Bank are covered by two loss share agreements between the FDIC and the Company that afford the Company significant loss protection. Covered loans are accounted for as acquired impaired loans as described above. The loss share indemnification asset is measured separately from the related covered loans as it is not contractually embedded in the loans and is not transferable should the loans be sold. The fair value of the indemnification asset at acquisition was estimated by discounting projected cash flows from the loss share agreements based on expected reimbursements for allowable loss claims, including appropriate consideration of possible true-up payments to the FDIC at the expiration of the agreements. The discounted amount is accreted into non-interest income over the remaining life of the covered loan pool or the life of the shared loss agreement.
In the following discussion and tables, commercial loans include the commercial, construction and real estate loans categories shown in previous table.

The table below details the troubled debt restructurings (TDR) that occurred during the current and prior year quarter by portfolio segment (dollar amounts in thousands). During these periods, no loan modified as a TDR defaulted within twelve months of its modification date. A reserve analysis is completed on all loans that have been determined to be troubled debt restructurings by Management. All troubled debt restructurings are rated substandard and are considered impaired in calculating the allowance for loan losses.

4. Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses (continued)
All loans are reviewed periodically over the course of the year. Each Bank’s portfolio of loan relationships aggregating $500,000 or more is reviewed every 12 to 18 months by the Bank’s Loan Review staff with other loans also periodically reviewed.
Commercial:
| • |
Pass - loans properly approved, documented, collateralized, and performing which do not reflect an abnormal credit risk. |
| • |
Pass - Watch - Credits in this category are of sufficient risk to cause concern. This category is reserved for credits that display negative performance trends. The “Watch” grade should be regarded as a transition category. |
| • |
Special Mention - These credits exhibit some signs of “Watch”, but to a greater magnitude. These credits constitute an undue and unwarranted credit risk, but not to a point of justifying a classification of “Substandard”. They have weaknesses that, if not checked or corrected, weaken the asset or inadequately protect the bank. |
| • |
Substandard - These credits constitute an unacceptable risk to the bank. They have recognized credit weaknesses that jeopardize the repayment of the debt. Repayment sources are marginal or unclear. |
| • |
Doubtful - A Doubtful credit has all of the weaknesses inherent in one classified “Substandard” with the added characteristic that weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full highly questionable or improbable. |
| • |
Loss - Credits classified as Loss are considered uncollectable and are charged off promptly once so classified. |
Consumer:
| • |
Performing - Loans on which payments of principal and interest are less than 90 days past due. |
| • |
Non-performing - A non-performing loan is a loan that is in default or close to being in default and there are good reasons to doubt that payments will be made in full. All loans rated as non-accrual are also non-performing. |
The Company held $42.5 million and $72.4 million, respectively, in loans held for sale at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011. Of the $42.5 million, $9.3 million are problem commercial loans held for sale. The remainder of $33.2 million represents mortgage loans originated for sale, which are carried at the lower of cost or estimated fair value. Residential mortgage loans are originated on a best-efforts basis, whereby a commitment by a third party to purchase the loan has been received concurrent with the Banks’ commitment to the borrower to originate the loan.

5. Derivatives
Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives
The Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage risks related to differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments, currently related to our variable rate borrowing and fixed rate loans. The Company has also entered into interest rate derivative agreements as a service provided to certain qualifying customers. The Company manages a matched book with respect to its customer derivatives in order to minimize its net risk exposure resulting from such agreements.

Fair Values of Derivative Instruments on the Balance Sheet
The Company is making an accounting policy election to use the exception in ASC 820-10-35-18D (commonly referred to as the “portfolio exception”) with respect to measuring counterparty credit risk for derivative instruments, consistent with the guidance in 820-10-35-18G. The table below presents the fair value (in thousands) of the Company’s derivative financial instruments as well as their classification on the consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. For hedges of the Company’s variable-rate borrowings, interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed payments. As of March 31, 2012, the Company had one interest rate swap with an aggregate notional amount of $140.0 million that was designated as a cash flow hedge associated with the Company’s forecasted variable cash flows beginning in June 2012 under a variable-rate term loan agreement. The Company did not have any cash flow hedges outstanding at March 31, 2011 or during the first quarter of 2011.
25
Hancock Holding Company and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – (continued)
(Unaudited)
5. Derivatives (continued)
The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. The impact on AOCI was insignificant during the first quarter of 2012, and the impact of reclassifications on earnings during 2012 is expected to also be insignificant. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings. No hedge ineffectiveness was recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2012.
Derivatives Not Designated as Hedges
Derivatives not designated as hedges are not speculative and result from a service the Company provides to certain customers. The Company executes interest rate derivatives, primarily rate swaps, with commercial banking customers to facilitate their risk management strategies. The Company simultaneously enters into offsetting agreements with unrelated financial institutions, thereby minimizing its net risk exposure resulting from such transactions. As the interest rate derivatives associated with this program do not meet the strict hedge accounting requirements, changes in the fair value of both the customer derivatives and the offsetting derivatives are recognized directly in earnings. As of March 31, 2012, the Company had entered into interest rate derivatives, including both customer and offsetting agreements, with an aggregate notional amount of $610.4 million related to this program.
Effect of Derivative Instruments on the Income Statement
The effect of the Company’s derivative financial instruments on the income statement was immaterial for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011.
Credit-risk-related Contingent Features
Certain of the Banks’ derivative instruments contain provisions allowing the financial institution counterparty to terminate the contracts in certain circumstances, such as the downgrade of the Banks’ credit ratings below specified levels, a default by the Bank on its indebtedness, or the failure of a Bank to maintain specified minimum regulatory capital ratios or its regulatory status as a well-capitalized institution. These derivative agreements also contain provisions regarding the posting of collateral by each party. As of March 31, 2012 the termination value of derivatives in a net liability position, which includes accrued interest but excludes any adjustment for nonperformance risk, related to these agreements was $17.9 million. The Company has minimum collateral posting thresholds with its derivative counterparties and has posted collateral of $11.5 million against its obligations under these agreements. If the Company had breached any of these provisions at March 31, 2012, it could have been required to settle its obligations under the agreements at the termination value.

6. Earnings Per Share
Hancock calculates earnings per share using the two-class method. The two-class method allocates net income to each class of common stock and participating security according to common dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings. Participating securities consist of unvested stock-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents.
Following is a summary of the information used in the computation of earnings per common share using the two-class method (in thousands, except per share amounts):

Potential common shares consist of employee and director stock options. These potential common shares do not enter into the calculation of diluted earnings per share if the impact would be anti-dilutive, i.e., increase earnings per share or reduce a loss per share. Weighted-average anti-dilutive potential common shares totaled 378,788 for the three months ended March 31, 2012. There were no anti-dilutive shares for the three months ended March 31, 2011.
7. Share-Based Payment Arrangements
Stock Option Plans
Hancock maintains incentive compensation plans that incorporate share-based compensation for employees and directors. These plans have been approved by the Company’s shareholders. Detailed descriptions of these plans were included in note 13 to the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

Hancock also makes annual grants of performance stock to key members of executive and senior management. On January 26, 2012, Hancock granted a target award of 14,858 performance shares with a fair value on the grant date of $36.16 per share. The number of 2012 performance shares that ultimately vest at the end of the three-year required service period will be based on the relative rank of Hancock’s three-year total shareholder return (TSR) among the TSRs of a peer group of fifty regional banks. The maximum number of performance shares that could vest is 200% of the target award. The fair value of this award at the grant date was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation method. Compensation expense for these performance shares will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the service period.
As of March 31, 2012, there was $26.7 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested restricted shares and performance shares. This compensation is expected to be recognized in expense over a weighted-average period of 3.2 years. The total fair value of restricted shares which vested during the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 was $0.73 million and $2.8 million, respectively.

The Whitney plans have been closed to new participants since 2008, and benefit accruals have been frozen for participants who did not meet certain vesting, age and years of service criteria as of December 31, 2008. The Company also sponsors defined benefit postretirement plans for both legacy Hancock and legacy Whitney employees that provide health care and life insurance benefits. Benefits under the Whitney plan are restricted to retirees who were already receiving benefits at the time of plan amendments in 2007 or active participants who were eligible to receive benefits as of December 31, 2007. The Company is in the process of reviewing all retirement benefit plans to determine appropriate changes needed to transition legacy Whitney employees into the Company’s benefit plans.
The following tables show the components of net periodic benefits cost included in expense for both the Hancock and Whitney Plans.

11. Segment Reporting
The Company’s primary operating segments are divided into Hancock, Whitney, and Other. The Hancock segment coincides with the Company’s Hancock Bank subsidiary and the Whitney segment with its Whitney Bank subsidiary. Each bank segment offers commercial, consumer and mortgage loans and deposit services as well as certain other services, such as trust and treasury management services. Although the bank segments offer the same products and services, they are managed separately due to different pricing, product demand, and consumer markets. On June 4, 2011, the Company completed its acquisition of Whitney Holding Corporation, the parent of Whitney National Bank. Whitney National Bank was merged into Hancock Bank of Louisiana and the combined entity was renamed Whitney Bank. Prior to the merger the segment now called Whitney Bank was comprised generally of Hancock Bank Louisiana. On March 15, 2012 Whitney Bank transferred the assets and liabilities of its operations in Florida and Alabama and Mississippi to Hancock Bank. As part of the merger, the assets and liabilities of the former Hancock Bank of Alabama were transferred to Hancock Bank. In the following tables, the “Other” segment includes activities of other consolidated subsidiaries that provide investment services, insurance agency services, insurance underwriting and various other services to third parties.

12. New Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2011, the FASB issued updated guidance regarding the presentation of comprehensive income, and subsequently amended this guidance in December 2011, prior to its effective date. The updated guidance eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes to stockholders’ equity, and, requires an entity to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. This amendment does not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item in other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income. The amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011, and should be applied retrospectively. The adoption of this guidance changed presentation only and did not have a material impact on the company’s financial condition or results of operations. The FASB is currently re-deliberating whether to present on the face of the financial statements the effects of reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the components of net income and other comprehensive income.
In May 2011, the FASB issued updated guidance to achieve common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS. Certain provisions clarify the Board’s intent about the application of existing fair value measurement and disclosure requirements, while others change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. The guidance is to be applied prospectively and is effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the company’s financial condition or results of operations.
In April 2011, FASB issued an update to improve the accounting for repurchase agreements (“repos”) and other agreements that both entitle and obligate a transferor to repurchase or redeem financial assets before their maturity. The guidance modifies the criteria for assessing if a transferor has maintained effective control over the transferred asset in determining when these transactions would be accounted for as financings (secured borrowings/lending agreements) as opposed to sales (purchases) with commitments to repurchase (resell). Specifically, the updated guidance removes the criterion requiring a transferor to have the ability to repurchase or redeem the financial assets on substantially the same terms, even in the event of default by the transferee, as well as the collateral maintenance guidance related to that criterion. The guidance is effective prospectively for new transfers and existing transactions that are modified in the first interim or annual period beginning on or after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the company’s financial condition or results of operations.

13. Whitney Acquisition
On June 4, 2011, Hancock acquired all of the outstanding common stock of Whitney Holding Corporation (Whitney), a bank holding company based in New Orleans, Louisiana, in a stock and cash transaction. Whitney common shareholders received 0.418 shares of Hancock common stock in exchange for each share of Whitney stock, resulting in Hancock issuing 40,794,261 common shares at a fair value of $1.3 billion. Whitney’s preferred stock and common stock warrant issued under TARP were purchased by the Company for $307.7 million and retired as part of the merger transaction. In total, the purchase price was approximately $1.6 billion including the value of the options to purchase common stock assumed in the merger. On September 16, 2011, seven Whitney Bank branches located on the Mississippi Gulf Coast and one branch located in Bogalusa, LA with approximately $47 million in loans and $180 million in deposits were divested in order to resolve branch concentration concerns of the U.S. Department of Justice relating to the merger.
The Whitney transaction was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and, accordingly, assets acquired, liabilities assumed and consideration exchanged were recorded at estimated fair value on the acquisition date. Fair values are preliminary and subject to refinement for up to one year after the closing date of the acquisition. Assets acquired, excluding goodwill, totaled $11.2 billion, including $6.5 billion in loans, $2.6 billion of investment securities, and $224 million of identifiable intangible assets. Liabilities assumed were $10.1 billion, including $9.2 billion of deposits. Goodwill of $589 million was calculated as the excess of the consideration exchanged over the net identifiable assets acquired.
The operating results of the Company include the results from Whitney’s operations since the acquisition date. The following table represents unaudited pro forma results for illustrative purposes and is not intended to represent or be indicative of actual results of operations of the combined company that would have been achieved had the acquisition occurred at the beginning of the period presented, nor are they intended to represent or be indicative of future results of operations.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements included with this report and our financial statements and related Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Our discussion includes various forward-looking statements about our markets, the demand for our products and services and our future results. These statements are based on certain assumptions we consider reasonable. For information about these assumptions, you should refer to the section below entitled “Forward-Looking Statements.”
Acquisition of Whitney Holding Corporation
On June 4, 2011, Hancock acquired all of the outstanding common stock of Whitney Holding Corporation (Whitney), the parent of Whitney National Bank based in New Orleans, Louisiana, in a stock and cash transaction. Whitney common shareholders received 0.418 shares of Hancock common stock in exchange for each share of Whitney stock, resulting in Hancock issuing 40.8 million common shares at a fair value of $1.3 billion. Whitney’s preferred stock and common stock warrant issued under TARP were purchased by the Company for $307.7 million and retired as part of the merger transaction. In total, the purchase price was approximately $1.6 billion. The fair value of the assets acquired, excluding goodwill, totaled $11.2 billion, including $.6.5 billion in loans, $2.4 billion of investment securities, and $224 million of identifiable intangibles. The fair value of the liabilities assumed was $10.1 billion, including $9.2 billion of deposits. In September 2011, seven Whitney Bank branches located on the Mississippi Gulf Coast and one branch located in Louisiana with approximately $47 million in loans and $180 million in deposits were divested in order to resolve branch concentration concerns of the U.S. Department of Justice relating to the merger. As a result, Hancock Holding Company is now the parent company of two wholly-owned bank subsidiaries, Hancock Bank, Gulfport, Mississippi (Hancock Bank) and Whitney Bank, New Orleans, Louisiana (Whitney Bank).
On March 15, 2012 Whitney Bank transferred the assets and liabilities of its operations in Florida and Alabama to Hancock Bank. As a result, Hancock Bank operates in Mississippi, Alabama and Florida, while Whitney Bank operates in Louisiana and Texas.
Hancock Bank and Whitney Bank are referred to collectively as the “Banks.”
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OVERVIEW
Net income for the first quarter of 2012 was $18.5 million, or $0.21 per diluted common share, compared to $19.0 million, or $0.22, and $15.3 million, or $0.41, respectively, in the fourth quarter and first quarter of 2011. Pre-tax merger costs totaled $33.9 million in the first quarter of 2012, $40.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2011 and $1.6 million in the first quarter of 2011.
Operating income for the first quarter of 2012 was $40.5 million or $0.47 per diluted common share compared to $45.1 million, or $0.53, and $16.4 million, or $0.44, in the fourth quarter of 2011 and first quarter of 2011, respectively. Operating income is defined as net income excluding tax-effected merger costs and securities transactions gains or losses. The Selected Financial Data below includes a reconciliation of net income to operating income.
Hancock’s return on average assets, excluding merger-related items and securities transactions, was 0.85% for the first quarter of 2012, compared to 0.93% in the fourth quarter of 2011, and 0.81% in the prior year period.
Total assets at March 31, 2012, were $19.3 billion, compared to $19.8 billion at December 31, 2011 and $8.3 billion at March 31, 2011. The decrease from the prior period reflects the year-end seasonal inflows of deposits from corporate and public fund customers. The increase from the prior year mainly reflects the $11.7 billion in assets acquired in the Whitney merger.
Hancock continues to remain well capitalized, with total equity of $2.4 billion, unchanged from year-end 2011, and more than double the $1.1 million of total equity at March 31, 2011. The Company’s tangible common equity ratio at March 31, 2012 was 8.27%, a 31 basis point increase over year end. This ratio was 11.94% at March 31, 2011.
35
Net Interest Income
Net interest income (taxable equivalent or te) for the first quarter decreased $2.1 million, or 1%, from the fourth quarter of 2011, primarily due to the current quarter having one fewer day than the fourth quarter. Net interest income increased $109.6 million from 2011’s first quarter due to the Whitney acquisition. The net interest margin (te) of 4.43% was 4 basis points wider than the prior quarter and up 46 basis points compared to the same quarter a year ago. Net purchase accounting adjustments for the Whitney transaction added approximately 43 basis points and 37 basis points to the first quarter 2012 and fourth quarter 2011 net interest margins, respectively.
Average earning assets were down slightly from the fourth quarter as loan increases of $50.7 million, were offset by a reduction in investment securities of $30.0 million, and a decline in short-term investments of $210.1 million. Because of the change in the mix of earning assets the average yield on earning assets was down 2 basis points while the average loan yield decreased by 12 basis points. Yields on other earning assets were flat compared to the prior quarter.
The cost of funds was down 6 basis points to 0.38% compared to the fourth quarter of 2011 and 52 basis points compared to the first quarter of 2011. Noninterest-bearing deposits averaged 33.0% of earning assets in the current quarter, up from 31.8% in the prior quarter and double the percentage for the first quarter of 2011. Rates paid on interest bearing deposits in the first quarter were down 10 basis points from the prior quarter as rates paid on time deposits continue to decline. Interest-bearing liability rates were less than half those in the first quarter of 2011.
The following table details the components of our net interest spread and net interest margin.

Provision for Loan Losses
Provisions are made to the allowance to reflect losses inherent in our loan portfolio. Hancock recorded a total provision for loan losses for the first quarter of 2012 of $10.0 million compared to $11.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2011 and to $8.8 million in the first quarter of 2011.
During the first quarter of 2012 the company recorded a $17.5 million increase in the allowance for losses due to impairment on certain pools of covered loans since the December 2009 acquisition of Peoples First, which was mostly offset by an increase in the Company’s FDIC loss share receivable for the 95% loss coverage. This resulted in a net provision for the first quarter of $1.6 million on the covered loans.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income for the first quarter of 2012 increased $0.9 million, or 2%, from the fourth quarter of 2011. The increase of $27.1 million compared to the same quarter a year ago reflects mainly the impact of the Whitney acquisition in June 2011. The following discussion will focus on linked-quarter comparisons between the first quarter of 2012 and the fourth quarter of 2011, both of which include Whitney’s operations.
As disclosed in the annual report on Form 10-K, the Dodd-Frank Act that was signed into law in July 2010 represents a significant overhaul of many aspects of the regulation of the financial services industry and includes provisions that have had or likely will have an impact on the nature and pricing of services offered by the Banks and other financial services industry participants.
Trust fees increased $1.3 million from the fourth quarter of 2011. Much of the increase is a one-time event associated with of the conversion of the Whitney trust systems at year-end 2011. The remainder of the increase reflects the impact of new client business.
Insurance commissions and fees declined $0.8 million, due mainly to the sale of the Magna insurance subsidiary at the end of 2011. The sale also eliminated a similar amount of noninterest expense during the first quarter of 2012.
Bank card fees increased slightly compared to the fourth quarter of 2011. New limits on debit card interchange rates went into effect in the fourth quarter of 2011 as part of the implementation of the Durbin amendment to the Dodd-Frank Act. Because of an exemption for smaller issuers, the new limits applied initially only to transactions on card accounts acquired with Whitney. Management currently expects that the new limits will be applied to all of the Banks’ card accounts in the third quarter of 2012, resulting in an estimated $2 million per quarter fee income loss compared to current levels.
Linked-quarter increases in investment and annuity fees, ATM fees and secondary mortgage market income reflect the impact of increased activity.
The components of noninterest income for the three months ended March 31, 2012, December 31, 2011 and March 31, 2011 are presented in the following table:

Noninterest Expense
Total noninterest expense for the first quarter of 2012 was little changed from the fourth quarter of 2011. Excluding merger-related expenses totaling $33.9 million in the current period and $40.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2011, noninterest expense increased $6.1 million, or 4%, between these periods. Compared to the first quarter of 2011, noninterest expense, excluding merger-related costs, was up $100 million, reflecting mainly the Whitney acquisition in June 2011. The following discussion will focus on linked-quarter comparisons between the first quarter of 2012 and the fourth quarter of 2011, both of which include Whitney’s operations.
Total personnel expense was $91.9 million in the first quarter of 2012, an increase of $3.4 million from the fourth quarter of 2011. This increase is primarily due to an increase in benefits expense. Approximately $2.0 million of the increase is related to the normal higher level of payroll taxes at the beginning of each year. A revised healthcare plan for the combined company added approximately $0.8 million. An additional $0.6 million of benefit expense during the first quarter was related to the impact of year-end retirement plan revaluations.
Net other real estate expense increased $2.4 million in the first quarter of 2012, related in part to adjustments in the fourth quarter of 2011 associated with foreclosed properties covered under FDIC loss-sharing agreements. Ad valorem and franchise taxes were up $1.2 million, related mainly to periodic tax estimate revisions. Amortization of intangibles increased $1.1 million due to purchase accounting adjustments made at the end of 2011.
Partially offsetting these increases were expense reductions of $2.7 million in non-merger-related advertising and $1.6 million in professional services. Normal advertising and marketing efforts were curtailed during the first quarter of 2012, as the Company focused on customer communications essential to the successful conversion of Whitney’s core data processing systems and certain customer applications in mid-March.

Income Taxes
For the three months ended March 31, 2012, the effective income tax rate was approximately 17%, compared to 13% in the fourth quarter of 2011 and 20% in the first quarter of 2011. For the first quarter of 2012, the Company estimated an annual effective tax rate of approximately 24% in calculating tax expense for the interim period. The actual effective tax rate of 17% included certain discrete items related mainly to the impact of the transfers of branches from Whitney Bank to Hancock Bank. As a result of the transfers, our state tax profile changed and we re-measured our deferred taxes accordingly.
The Company’s effective tax rates have varied from the 35% federal statutory rate primarily because of tax-exempt income and the availability of tax credits. Interest income from the financing of state and local governments and earnings from the bank-owned life insurance program are the major components of tax-exempt income. The source of the tax credits for 2012 and 2011 has been investments that generate New Market Tax Credits, Low-Income Housing Credits and Qualified Bond Credits.

Covered and acquired loans are considered to be performing due to the application of the accretion method under acquisition accounting. Acquired loans are recorded at fair value with no allowance brought forward in accordance with acquisition accounting. Certain acquired loans and foreclosed assets are also covered under FDIC loss sharing agreements, which provide considerable protection against credit risk. Due to the protection of loss sharing agreements and the impact of acquisition accounting, management has excluded acquired loans and covered assets from this table to provide improved comparability to prior periods and better perspective into asset quality trends. |
| (b) |
Excludes acquired covered loans not accounted for under the accretion method of $9,377, $18,846, and $44,064. |
|
Also excludes non-covered acquired loans at fair value not accounted for under the accretion method of $1,809, $1,117 and $0 . |
| (c) |
Excludes covered foreclosed assets of $48,528, $43,982, and $22,821. |

On June 4, 2011, Hancock acquired $90,843 of foreclosed assets in the Whitney merger. |
| (d) |
Excludes allowance for loan losses recorded on covered acquired loans of $57,759, $41,634 and $11,196. |

LIQUIDITY
Liquidity management encompasses our ability to ensure that funds are available to meet the cash flow requirements of depositors and borrowers, while also ensuring that we have adequate cash flow to meet our various needs, including operating, strategic and capital. Without proper liquidity management, we would not be able to perform the primary function of a financial intermediary and would not be able to meet the needs of the communities in which we have a presence and serve. In addition, the parent holding company’s principal source of liquidity is dividends from its subsidiary banks. Liquidity is required at the parent holding company level for the purpose of paying dividends to stockholders, servicing any debt we may have, funding net outlays in business combinations as well as general corporate expenses.
The asset portion of the balance sheet provides liquidity primarily through loan principal repayments, maturities of investment securities, the ability to use the loan and securities portfolios as collateral for borrowings and occasional sales of various assets. Short-term investments such as federal funds sold, securities purchased under agreements to resell and interest-bearing deposits with banks are additional sources of liquidity funding. Free securities represent unencumbered and unpledged securities assigned to dealer repo agreements that mature within 30 days and securities assigned to the Federal Reserve Bank discount window which are not pledged against current funding and which are available within one day.
The liability portion of the balance sheet provides liquidity through various customers’ interest-bearing and non-interest-bearing deposit accounts. Purchases of federal funds, securities sold under agreements to repurchase and other short-term borrowings are additional sources of liquidity. These sources of liquidity are short-term in nature and are used as necessary to fund asset growth and meet short-term liquidity needs. Our short-term borrowing capacity includes an approved line of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank of $2.29 billion and borrowing capacity at the Federal Reserve’s discount window in excess of $965.7 million. Our core deposits at March 31, 2012 were unchanged from year end at $14.2 billion. Core deposits represent total deposits less CDs greater than $100,000 and foreign branch deposits. Net wholesale funding was also stable at $1.3 billion and $1.0 billion.
Cash generated from operations is another important source of funds to meet liquidity needs. The consolidated statements of cash flows provide present operating cash flows and summarize all significant sources and uses of funds for the first three months of 2012 and 2011.
The Company intends to take advantage of its strong liquidity position to support favorable growth opportunities that are presented.

CAPITAL RESOURCES
Stockholders’ equity totaled $2.4 billion at March 31, 2002, essentially unchanged from December 31, 2011. The tangible common equity ratio increased to 8.27% at March 31, 2012 from 7.96% at December 31, 2011. The primary quantitative measures that regulators use to gauge capital adequacy are the ratios of total and Tier 1 regulatory capital to risk-weighted assets (risk-based capital ratios) and the ratio of Tier 1 capital to average total assets (leverage ratio). Both the Company and its bank subsidiaries are required to maintain minimum risk-based capital ratios of 8.0% total regulatory capital and 4.0% Tier 1 capital. The minimum leverage ratio is 3.0% for bank holding companies and banks that meet certain specified criteria, including having the highest supervisory rating. All others are required to maintain a leverage ratio of at least 4.0%. At March 31, 2012, our regulatory capital ratios and those of the Banks were well in excess of current regulatory minimum requirements, as indicated in the table below. The Company and the Banks have been categorized as “well capitalized” in the most recent notices received from our regulators. We continue to be well capitalized.

Tier 1 capital generally includes common equity, retained earnings, non-controlling interest in equity of consolidated subsidiaries and a limited amount of qualifying perpetual preferred stock, reduced by goodwill and other disallowed intangibles and disallowed deferred tax assets and certain other assets. Total capital consists of Tier 1 capital plus perpetual preferred stock not qualifying as Tier 1 capital, mandatory convertible securities, certain types of subordinated debt and a limited amount of allowances for credit losses. |
| (2) |
The risk-weighted asset base is equal to the sum of the aggregate value of assets and credit-converted off-balance sheet items in each risk category as specified in regulatory guidelines, multiplied by the weight assigned by the guidelines to that category. |
| (3) |
The Tier 1 leverage capital ratio is Tier 1 capital divided by average total assets reduced by the deductions for Tier 1 capital noted above. |
BALANCE SHEET ANALYSIS
Securities
Investment in securities totaled $4.4 billion at March 31, 2012 and $4.5 billion at December 31, 2011. At March 31, 2012 securities available for sale totaled $2.6 billion and securities held to maturity totaled $1.8 billion. Our securities portfolio consists mainly of residential mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations that are issued or guaranteed by U.S. government agencies. The portfolio is designed to enhance liquidity while providing acceptable rates of return. Therefore, we invest only in high quality securities of investment grade quality with a targeted duration, for the overall portfolio, generally between two to five years. Our policies limit investments to securities having a rating of no less than “Baa”, or its equivalent by a nationally recognized statistical rating Agency, except for certain non-rated obligations of counties, parishes and municipalities within our markets in Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, Florida or Alabama.
46
Loans
We held $11.1 billion in loans at March 31, 2012 virtually unchanged from December 31, 2011. During the first quarter, seasonal payoffs on commercial credits were offset by growth in construction and land development loans, residential mortgages and consumer loans. Commercial real estate loans continued to decline reflecting ongoing payoffs and scheduled repayments within that portfolio and limited opportunities for new project financing in today’s environment.
See note 4 of the financial statements for the composition of originated, acquired and covered loans for March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011. Originated loans include all loans not included in the acquired and covered loan portfolios described below. Acquired loans are those purchased in the Whitney acquisition on June 4, 2011, including loans that were performing satisfactorily at the date (acquired performing) and loans acquired with evidence of credit deterioration (acquired impaired). Covered loans are those purchased in the December 2009 acquisition of Peoples First, which are covered by loss share agreements between the FDIC and the Company that afford significant loss protection. Purchased loans acquired in a business combination are recorded at estimated fair value on their purchase date without carryover of any allowance for loan losses. Certain differences in the accounting for originated loans and for acquired performing and acquired impaired loans (which include all Peoples First covered loans) are described in Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements.
Total originated loans increased $563 million from December 31, 2011. Originated commercial loans were up $141 million, although net demand was impacted by some seasonal reductions. The net increase reflected activity with both existing and new customers and was concentrated mainly in the Company’s markets in central Florida, western Louisiana and the greater New Orleans area of Louisiana.
The Company’s commercial customer base is diversified over a range of industries, including oil and gas (O&G), wholesale and retail trade in various durable and nondurable products and the manufacture of such products, marine transportation and maritime construction, financial and professional services, and agricultural production. Loans outstanding to O&G industry customers totaled approximately $600 million at both March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the majority of which are with customers who provide transportation and other services and products to support exploration and production activities. The Banks lend mainly to middle-market and smaller commercial entities, although they do occasionally participate in larger shared-credit loan facilities with familiar businesses operating in the Company’s market areas. Shared-credits funded at March 31, 2012 totaled $686 million, of which $192 million was with O&G customers.
Originated construction loans, which include land development loans, and originated commercial real estate loans, which include loans on both income-producing and owner-occupied properties, increased a combined $235 million in the first quarter of 2012. This increase reflects the funding of existing commitments as well as some new business across the Company’s footprint and covers a variety of retail, multi-family residential, commercial and other projects, including some sizable projects to expand or renovate established properties in Louisiana.
The portfolio of acquired Whitney loans decreased by $572 million since December 31, 2011, with $191 million in the commercial category, $240 million in the construction and commercial real estate categories, and $141 million in the residential mortgage and consumer loans categories. There were no significant trends underlying the reduction in the commercial category, and the Company continues its relationship with many of the commercial customers who have paid down their loans outstanding at the acquisition. Reductions in the acquired construction and commercial real estate categories as well as the residential mortgage and consumer categories reflected mainly normal repayment and refinancing activity. More than $35 million of loans with pre-acquisition credit issues were paid off during the first quarter of 2012.
Total covered loans at March 31, 2012 were down $38 million from year-end 2011 reflecting normal repayments, charge-offs and foreclosures. The covered portfolio will continue to decline over the terms of the loss share agreements.
47
Allowance for Loan Losses and Asset Quality
At March 31, 2012, the allowance for loan losses was $142.3 million compared with $124.9 million at December 31, 2011, an increase of $17.4 million. The ratio of the allowance for loan losses as a percent of period-end loans was 1.28% at March 31, 2012 compared to 1.12% at December 31, 2011. Most of the increase in the allowance was related to the Peoples First portfolio which is covered under FDIC loss-sharing agreements.
During the first quarter of 2012, the Company recorded a $32.6 million increase in the allowance for loan losses related to impairment of certain pools of covered loans, with a related increase of $30.9 million in the FDIC loss share indemnification asset. The net impact on provision expense was $1.6 million.
The Company recorded a total provision for loan losses for the first quarter of 2012 of $10.0 million, down from $11.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2011. As noted above, the first quarter provision included $1.6 million, net, related to the Peoples First portfolio, compared to $1.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2011. The provision for non-covered loans declined to $8.4 million in the first quarter of 2012 from $10.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2011. The provision totaled $8.3 million in the first quarter of 2011.
Net charge-offs from the non-covered loan portfolio in first quarter of 2012 were $7.1 million, or 0.25% of average total loans on an annualized basis. This compares to net non-covered charge-offs of $11.3 million, or 0.40% of average total loans, for the fourth quarter of 2011, and $6.4 million, or 0.53%, for the first quarter of 2011. Additional asset quality metrics for the acquired (Whitney), covered (Peoples First) and legacy (Hancock plus newly originated) portfolios are included in Selected Financial Data.
The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, average net loans outstanding, allowance for loan losses, amounts charged-off and recoveries of loans previously charged-off. See supplemental asset quality information excluding covered and acquired loans in Selected Financial Data.

(a) The provision for loan losses is shown “net” after coverage provided by FDIC loss share agreements on covered loans. This results in an increase in the indemnification asset, which is the difference between the provision for loan losses on covered loans of $32,552, and the impairment ($1,628) on those covered loans for the three months ended March 31, 2012. This results in an increase in the indemnification asset, which is the difference between the provision for loan losses on covered loans of $10,899, and the impairment ($545) on those covered loans for the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Non-performing assets (NPAs) totaled $287.6 million at March 31, 2012, compared to $277.0 million at year-end 2011. Non-performing assets as a percent of total loans and ORE and foreclosed assets was 2.55% at March 31, 2012, compared to 2.44% at December 31, 2011. The overall increase in NPAs mainly reflects the movement to non-accrual status of a few legacy Hancock credits, primarily commercial real estate-related credits located in Louisiana, that were previously categorized as potential problems. Non-performing loans exclude loans from Whitney’s and Peoples First’s acquired credit-impaired loan portfolios that were recorded at estimated fair value at acquisition and are accreting interest income.
Additional asset quality metrics for the acquired (Whitney), covered (Peoples First) and legacy (Hancock legacy plus Whitney non-acquired loans) portfolios are included in Selected Financial Data.

Other Earning Assets
Federal funds sold, interest-bearing deposits in banks, and other short-term investments averaged $852.8 million in the first quarter of 2012, down $210.1 million (20%) from 2011’s last quarter and up $110.1mm (15%) from the first quarter of 2011. These products are a short-term investment alternative whenever we have excess liquidity. The decrease from the prior quarter, primarily in Federal Reserve interest-bearing accounts, resulted primarily from the decrease in deposits from the fourth quarter and the increase in average loans.
Interest Bearing Liabilities
Interest bearing liabilities include our interest bearing deposits as well as borrowings. Deposits represent our primary funding source. We continue our focus on multiple account, core deposit relationships and strategic placement of time deposit campaigns to stimulate overall deposit growth. Borrowings consist primarily of sales of securities under repurchase agreements to deposit customers with excess funds.
Deposits
Total deposits were $15.4 billion at March 31, 2012, a small decline of 2% from December 31, 2011. Average deposits were stable compared to the fourth quarter of 2011.
Noninterest-bearing demand deposits totaled $5.2 billion at March 31, 2012, down $273 million, or 5% compared to December 31, 2011. Approximately $240 million of noninterest-bearing transaction deposits were converted to low-cost interest-bearing deposits during the core systems conversion in order to best match the existing product benefits offered. Noninterest-bearing demand deposits comprised 34% of total period-end deposits at March 31, 2012, compared to 35% at year-end 2011.
Interest-bearing transaction deposits increased $385 million during the first quarter of 2012 to $5.7 billion at March 31, 2012. This increase included the conversion of certain noninterest-bearing accounts noted earlier and the movement of some funds from maturing time deposits. Interest bearing public fund deposits totaled $1.5 billion at March 31, 2012, down $76 million, or 5%, from December 31, 2011 reflecting the seasonal nature of these types of deposits.
Time deposits (CDs) totaled $2.5 billion at March 31, 2012, down $316 million compared to $2.9 billion at December 31, 2011. Included in the decline is approximately $125 million from the anticipated runoff in the Peoples First time deposit portfolio. During the first quarter, approximately $963 million of time deposits matured at an average rate of 1.19%, of which approximately 60% renewed at an average cost of 0.32%. There are approximately $1.2 billion of CDs scheduled to mature within next two quarters at an average rate of 92 basis points. In the current low rate environment management continues to expect customers will be motivated to hold funds in no or low-cost transaction accounts until rates begin to rise.
Borrowings
Total borrowings at March 31, 2012 were $1.2 billion compared to $1.4 billion at December 31, 2011. Short-term borrowings, which come mainly from customer repurchase agreements, declined $194 million during the first quarter of 2012 to $850 million at March 31, 2012. Additional funds were available to certain corporate customers at the end of 2011 reflecting temporary inflows from both year-end funds management activities and specific transactions. Long term debt remained relatively stable at almost $360 million.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
Loan Commitments and Letters of Credit
In the normal course of business, the Banks enter into financial instruments, such as commitments to extend credit and letters of credit, to meet the financing needs of their customers. Such instruments are not reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements until they are funded, although they expose the Banks to varying degrees of credit risk and interest rate risk in much the same way as funded loans.
Commitments to extend credit include revolving commercial credit lines, nonrevolving loan commitments issued mainly to finance the acquisition and development of construction of real property or equipment, and credit card and personal credit lines. The availability of funds under commercial credit lines and loan commitments generally depends on whether the borrower continues to meet credit standards established in the underlying contract and has not violated other contractual conditions. Loan commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee by the borrower. Credit card and personal credit lines are generally subject to cancellation if the borrower’s credit quality deteriorates. A number of commercial and personal credit lines are used only partially or, in some cases, not at all before they expire, and the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements of the Company.
A substantial majority of the letters of credit are standby agreements that obligate the Banks to fulfill a customer’s financial commitments to a third party if the customer is unable to perform. The Banks issue standby letters of credit primarily to provide credit enhancement to their customers’ other commercial or public financing arrangements and to help them demonstrate financial capacity to vendors of essential goods and services. The contract amounts of these instruments reflect the Company’s exposure to credit risk. The Banks undertake the same credit evaluation in making loan commitments and assuming conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments and may require collateral or other credit support.
The following table shows the commitments to extend credit and letters of credit at March 31, 2012 according to expiration date. Of the commitments to extend credit, approximately $3.4 billion carry variable rates and the remainder fixed rates.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and with general practices followed by the banking industry which requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
See Note 12 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this report.

SEGMENT REPORTING
The Company’s primary operating segments are divided into Hancock, Whitney, and Other. The Hancock segment coincides generally with the Company’s Hancock Bank subsidiary and the Whitney segment with its Whitney Bank subsidiary. Each Bank segment offers commercial, consumer and mortgage loans and deposit services. Although the Bank segments offer the same products and services, they are managed separately due to different pricing, product demand, and consumer markets. In March 2012 the Company completed the reorganization begun with the acquisition of Whitney Bank in June 2011. The assets and liabilities of Whitney Bank in Alabama and Florida were transferred to Hancock Bank. Hancock Bank now consists of the Mississippi, Alabama and Florida market and Whitney Bank consists of the Louisiana and Texas markets. Whitney National Bank was merged into Hancock Bank of Louisiana, and the combined entity was renamed Whitney Bank. The “Other” segment includes activities of other consolidated subsidiaries that provide investment services, insurance agency services, insurance underwriting and various other services to third parties. Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements provides comparative financial information for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and March 31, 2011. Net income in March 31, 2012 for the Hancock segment increased $7.3 million over 2011. Net interest income increased primarily as a result of branches being transferred to the Hancock Bank segment from the Whitney Bank segment as part of the restructuring that occurred with the merger. The provision for loan losses for the Hancock segment declined $9.7 million in 2012, reflecting the improvement in certain credit quality metrics and general economic conditions, as discussed earlier. The addition of Whitney National Bank’s operations drove the significant changes in the Whitney segment’s operating results and financial position in the first quarter of 2012 compared to the prior year quarter. After deducting tax-effected merger-related expenses of $22.0 million, net income for the first quarter of 2012 for the Whitney segment increased $17.5 million over 2011.
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Form 10-Q contains “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, and we intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions therein and are including this statement for purposes of invoking these safe-harbor provisions. 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 . The forward-looking statements made in this Form 10-Q include, but may not be limited to, comments with respect to, loan growth, deposit trends, credit quality trends, net interest margin trends, future expense levels (including merger costs and cost synergies), projected tax rates, economic conditions in our markets, future profitability, purchase accounting impacts such as accretion levels, and the financial impact of regulatory requirements such as the Durbin amendment. Hancock’s ability to accurately project results or predict the effects of future plans or strategies is inherently limited. Although Hancock believes that the expectations reflected in its forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, 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 Hancock’s forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, those risk factors outlined in Hancock’s public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which are available at the SEC’s internet site (http://www.sec.gov). You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Hancock does not intend, and undertakes no obligation, to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of differences in actual results, changes in assumptions or changes in other factors affecting such statements, except as required by law.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Our net income is dependent, in part, on our net interest income. Net interest income is susceptible to interest rate risk to the degree that interest-bearing liabilities mature or re-price on a different basis than interest-earning assets. Interest rate risk sensitivity is the potential impact of changing rate environments on both net interest income and cash flows. In an attempt to manage our exposure to changes in interest rates, management monitors interest rate risk and administers an interest rate risk management policy designed to produce a relatively stable net interest margin in periods of interest rate fluctuations.
Notwithstanding our interest rate risk management activities, the potential for changing interest rates is an uncertainty that can have an adverse effect on net income and the fair value of our investment securities. As of March 31, 2012, the effective duration of the securities portfolio was 2.7 years. A rate increase (aged, over 1 year) of 100 basis points would move the effective duration to 3.5 years, while a reduction in rates of 100 basis points would result in an effective duration of 1.0 years.
In adjusting our asset/liability position, the Board and management attempt to manage our interest rate risk while enhancing net interest margins. This measurement is done primarily by running net interest income simulations. The net interest income simulations run at March 31, 2012 indicate that we are slightly asset sensitive as compared to the stable rate environment. Exposure to instantaneous changes in interest rate risk for the current quarter is presented in the following table.
| Net Interest Income (te) at Risk | ||||||||

interest rate (basis point) |

||||||
| -100 | 0.00% | |||||||
| Stable | 0.00% | |||||||
| +100 | 1.68% | |||||||
The foregoing disclosures related to our market risk should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements, related notes and management’s discussion and analysis for the year ended December 31, 2011 included in our 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
At the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officers and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15 (e) and 15d-15 (e) under the Exchange Act). Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of the end of the period covered by this report to timely alert them to material information relating to us (including our consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in our Exchange Act filings.
Other than changes required in connection with the ongoing integration of Whitney and Hancock operations, our management, including the Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer, identified no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three month period ended March 31, 2012, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
54
As previously reported, in January 2011, a shareholder class action lawsuit was filed in the Civil District Court for the Parish of Orleans of the State of Louisiana captioned De LaPouyade v. Whitney Holding Corporation, et al. The substantive allegations of that lawsuit which was related to the merger between Whitney Holding Corporation and Hancock Holding Company have been described in prior company filings. Also as previously reported, thereafter, in February 2011, a complaint in intervention was filed by the Louisiana Municipal Police Employees Retirement System (“MPERS”) in the De LaPouyade case. Additionally, as previously reported, in February 2011, another putative shareholder class action lawsuit related to the merger, Realistic Partners v. Whitney Holding Corporation, et al. , was filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana. Also as previously reported, in April 2011, another putative shareholder class action lawsuit related to the merger, Jane Doe v. Whitney Holding Corporation, et al. , Case No. 2:11-cv-00794-ILRL-JCW, was filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana. All of these proceedings have been settled and dismissed as described below.
On May 5, 2011, the parties in the Jane Doe action entered into a stipulation providing for the voluntary dismissal of that action. On May 17, 2011, the parties in the Realistic Partners action entered into a stipulation providing for the voluntary dismissal of that action. On April 11, 2012, the court in the De LaPouyade action entered an order certifying the class, giving final approval to a settlement agreed to between the parties, and dismissing the action with prejudice. The financial terms of the settlement were not material.
Also, the previously reported putative class action lawsuit, Angelique LaCour, et al, v. Whitney Bank , is subject to a pending settlement agreement. A motion for preliminary approval of said settlement was filed in federal court on April 12, 2012. The Company had established a liability for the proposed settlement in the fourth quarter of 2011.
The Company is party to various other legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, each matter is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial statements of the Company.
An interruption or breach in our information systems or infrastructure, or those of third parties, could disrupt our business, result in the unauthorized disclosure of confidential information, damage our reputation and cause financial losses.
Our business is dependent on our ability to process and monitor a large number of transactions on a daily basis and to securely process, store and transmit confidential and other information on our computer systems and networks. We rely heavily on our information and communications systems and those of third parties who provide critical components of our information and communications infrastructure. These systems are critical to the operation of our business and essential to our ability to perform day-to-day operations. Our financial, accounting, data processing or other information systems and facilities, or those of third parties on whom we rely, may fail to operate properly or become disabled as a result of events that are wholly or partially beyond our control, such as a spike in transaction volume, cyber attack or other unforeseen catastrophic events, which may adversely affect our ability to process transactions or provide services.
Although we make continuous efforts to maintain the security and integrity of our information systems and have not experienced a cyber attack, threats to information systems continue to evolve and there can be no assurance that our security efforts and measures will continue to be effective. The risk of a security breach or disruption, particularly through cyber attack or cyber intrusion, has increased as the number, intensity and sophistication of attempted attacks and intrusions from around the world have increased. Threats to our information systems may originate externally from third parties such as foreign governments, organized crime and other hackers, outsource or infrastructure-support providers and application developers, or may originate internally. As a financial institution, we face a heightened risk of a security breach or disruption from attempts to gain unauthorized access to our and our customers’ data and financial information, whether through cyber attack, cyber intrusion over the internet, malware, computer viruses, attachments to e-mails, spoofing, phishing, or spyware.
55
As a result, our information, communications and related systems, software and networks may be vulnerable to breaches or other significant disruptions that could: (1) disrupt the proper functioning of our networks and systems, which could disrupt our operations and those of certain of our customers; (2) result in the unauthorized access to, and destruction, loss, theft, misappropriation or release of confidential, sensitive or otherwise valuable information of ours or our customers, including account numbers and other financial information; (3) result in a violation of applicable privacy and other laws, subjecting the Bank to additional regulatory scrutiny and expose the Bank to civil litigation and possible financial liability; (4) require significant management attention and resources to remedy the damages that result; and (5) harm our reputation or impair our customer relationships. The occurrence of such failures, disruptions or security breaches could have a negative impact on our results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows.
There have been no other material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. The risks described may not be the only risks facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that are currently considered to not be material also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and/or operating results.
