EXPLANATORY NOTE

We are filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q/A to amend and restate in their entirety the following items of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 as originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 9, 2018 (the “Original Form 10-Q”): (i) Item 2 of Part I, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," (ii) “Exhibits,” and we have also updated the signature page, the certifications of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer in Exhibits 31.1, 31.2, 32.1 and 32.2, and our financial statements formatted in Extensible Business Reporting Language (XBRL) in Exhibits 101. No other sections were affected, but for the convenience of the reader, this report on Form 10-Q/A restates in its entirety, as amended, our Original Form 10-Q. This report on Form 10-Q/A is presented as of the filing date of the Original Form 10-Q and does not reflect events occurring after that date, or modify or update disclosures in any way other than as required to reflect the restatement described below.

We have determined that our previously reported Subsequent Event for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 erroneously stated the reduction of energy loans as a percentage of total loans from 14.5% to 1.38%, and should have stated a reduction of energy loans as a percentage of total loans from 14.5% to 13.8%. We have made necessary changes in Item 2 of Part I, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," Subsequent Events for the correction of this error.

Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2018

(Unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), the financial position of MidSouth Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries as of June 30, 2018 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the periods presented. The interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s 2017 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The results of operations for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire year.

Use of Estimates — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies — The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform with GAAP and general practices within the banking industry. There have been no material changes or developments in the application of accounting principles or in our evaluation of the accounting estimates and the underlying assumptions or methodologies that we believe to be Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates as disclosed in our 2017 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements — In May 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-06, Codification Improvements to Topic 942, Financial Services - Depository and Lending. ASU 2018-06 removes outdated guidance related to Circular 202 because that guidance has been rescinded by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. The amendments in this update are effective upon issuance. The adoption of this ASU did not

have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, result of operations or cash flows.

ASU 2018-03, Technical Corrections and Improvements to Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities was issued to clarify certain aspects of the guidance on recognizing and measuring financial assets and liabilities in ASU 2016-01:


•	Clarification regarding the ability to discontinue application of the measurement alternative for equity securities without a readily determinable fair value


•	Clarification of the measurement date for fair value adjustments to the carrying amount of equity securities without a readily determinable fair value for which the measurement alternative is elected


•	Clarification of the unit of account for fair value adjustments to forward contracts and purchased options on equity securities without a readily determinable fair value for which the measurement alternative is expected to be elected


•	Presentation requirements for certain hybrid financial liabilities for which the fair value option is elected


•	Measurement of financial liabilities denominated in a foreign currency for which the fair value option is elected


•	Transition guidance for equity securities without a readily determinable fair value

The effective date of this Update is for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2017 and for interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2018. Public business entities with fiscal years beginning between December 15, 2017 and June 15, 2018 are not required to adopt the amendments until interim periods beginning after June 15, 2018. Adoption of this Update is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or its financial statement disclosures.

Adoption of New Accounting Standards —ASU 2016-01, Financial Statements - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities was issued in January 2016 to address certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. This standard impacts how the Company measures certain equity investments and discloses and presents certain financial instruments through the application of the “exit price” notion. The Company adopted the amendments beginning January 1, 2018. Under the new guidance, equity investments can no longer be classified as trading or available for sale (AFS), and related unrealized holding gains and losses can no longer be recognized in OCI. Per the ASU, such equity investments should be measured at fair value, with adjustments recognized in earnings at the end of each reporting period. As such, the Company reclassified its portfolio of equity investments (approximately $2.0 million at March 31, 2018) previously classified as AFS investment securities to “other investments.” As these equity investments were previously measured at fair value, implementation of the ASU did not impact the Company’s valuation method. In accordance with the ASU, the cumulative-effect adjustment from AOCI to retained earnings for previously recorded fair value adjustments related to these equity investments at adoption was immaterial. The

Table of Contents

Company elected the practical expedient measurement alternative to prospectively account for other equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values at cost less impairment plus or minus observable price changes in orderly transactions for an identical or similar investment of the same issuer. These investments are immaterial overall and are classified within “other investments” on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which created a new principle-based framework to determine when and how an entity recognizes revenue from its customer contracts. FASB has established a core principle for recognizing revenue within the new rules, which states that revenue should only be recorded when services are provided or goods are transferred to customers at the agreed price. The majority of our revenue-generating transactions are not subject to ASC Topic 606, including revenue generated from financial instruments, such as our loans, letters of credit and investment securities, as these activities are subject to other GAAP discussed elsewhere within our disclosures. Description of our revenue-generating activities that are within the scope of ASC Topic 606, which are presented in our income statements as components of non-interest income are as follows:

Service charges on deposits - We collect service charges on most of our non-maturity deposits accounts on a monthly basis. Our fee earned is collected monthly when a particular cycle for a non-maturity deposit account closes. Each cycle is monthly and the fee earned is for our service for the month just closed. Our performance obligations are to process transactions, pay interest (on interest-bearing accounts), collect deposits, and allow access to on-line banking applications and other services ancillary to a banking relationship. Each month when our fee is charged, our obligation is complete. The contract-relationship is a month to month obligation - i.e. our obligation to perform these services would end if the customer closes their deposit account with MidSouth.


•	ATM and debit card income - ATM fees primarily consist of surcharges assessed to our customers for using a non-Bank ATM or a non-Bank customer using our ATM. Debit card income represents revenues earned from interchange fees, which are earned on debit card transactions conducted with payment networks. Such fees are generally recognized concurrently with the delivery of services on a daily basis.

Management evaluates each quarter whether unrealized losses on securities represent impairment that is other than temporary. For debt securities, the Company considers its intent to sell the securities or if it is more likely than not the Company will be required to sell the securities. If such impairment is identified, based upon the intent to sell or the more likely than not threshold, the carrying amount of the security is reduced to fair value with a charge to earnings. Upon the result of the aforementioned review, management then reviews for potential other than temporary impairment based upon other qualitative factors. In making this evaluation, management considers changes in market rates relative to those available when the security was acquired, changes in market expectations about the timing of cash flows from securities that can be prepaid, performance of the debt security, and changes in the market’s perception of the issuer’s financial health and the security’s credit quality. If determined that a debt security has incurred other than temporary impairment, then the amount of the credit related impairment is determined. For equity securities, management reviews the near term prospects of the issuer, the nature and cause of the unrealized loss, the severity and duration of the impairments and other factors when determining if an unrealized loss is other than temporary. If a credit loss is evident, the amount of the credit loss is charged to earnings and the non-credit related impairment is recognized through other comprehensive income.

As of June 30, 2018, 103 securities had unrealized losses totaling 3.22% of the individual securities’ amortized cost basis and 2.71% of the Company’s total amortized cost basis. Of the 103 securities, 45 had been in an unrealized loss position for over twelve months at June 30, 2018. These 45 securities had an amortized cost basis and unrealized loss of $162.2 million and $7.4 million, respectively. The unrealized losses on debt securities at June 30, 2018 resulted from changing market interest rates over the yields available at the time the underlying securities were purchased. Management identified no impairment related to credit quality. At June 30, 2018, management had the intent and ability to hold impaired securities and no impairment was evaluated as other than temporary. As a result, no other than temporary impairment losses were recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2018.

During the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company sold 1 security classified as available-for-sale for $410,000 which resulted in neither a gain nor a loss. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company sold 10 securities classified as available-for-sale and 1 security classified as held-to-maturity. Of the available-for-sale securities, 7 securities were sold with gains totaling $111,000 and 3 securities were sold at a loss of $109,000 for a net gain of $2,000. The decision to sell the 1 held-to-maturity security, which was sold

at a gain of $7,000, was based on the pre-refunding of the bond which would accelerate the maturity of the bond by 15 years with an anticipated call date within six months.

Securities with an aggregate carrying value of approximately $207.4 million and $177.9 million at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, were pledged to secure public funds on deposit and for other purposes required or permitted by law.

The Company monitors loan concentrations and evaluates individual customer and aggregate industry leverage, profitability, risk rating distributions, and liquidity for each major standard industry classification segment. At June 30, 2018, one industry segment concentration, the oil and gas industry, constituted more than 10% of the loan portfolio. The Company’s exposure in the oil and gas industry, including related service and manufacturing industries, totaled approximately $153.6 million, or 14.5% of total loans. Additionally, the Company’s exposure to loans secured by commercial real estate is monitored. At June 30, 2018, loans secured by commercial real estate (including commercial construction, farmland and multifamily loans) totaled approximately $481.0 million, or 45.5% of total loans, of which 52% are secured by owner-occupied commercial properties. Of the $481.0 million in loans secured by commercial real estate, $31.4 million, or 6.5%, were on nonaccrual status at June 30, 2018.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is a valuation account available to absorb probable losses on loans. All losses are charged to the allowance for loan losses when the loss actually occurs or when a determination is made that a loss is likely to occur. Recoveries are credited to the allowance for loan losses at the time of recovery. Quarterly, the probable level of losses in the existing portfolio is estimated through consideration of various factors. Based on these estimates, the allowance for loan losses is increased by charges to earnings and decreased by charge‑offs (net of recoveries).

The allowance is composed of general reserves and specific reserves. General reserves are determined by applying loss percentages to segments of the portfolio. The loss percentages are based on each segment’s historical loss experience, generally over the past three to five years, and adjustment factors derived from conditions in the Company’s internal and external environment. All loans considered to be impaired are evaluated on an individual basis to determine specific reserve allocations in accordance with GAAP. Loans for which specific reserves are provided are excluded from the calculation of general reserves.

Loans acquired in business combinations are initially recorded at fair value, which includes an estimate of credit losses expected to be realized over the remaining lives of the loans, and therefore no corresponding allowance for loan losses is recorded for these loans at acquisition. Methods utilized to estimate any subsequently required allowance for loan losses for acquired loans not deemed credit-impaired at acquisition are similar to originated loans; however, the estimate of loss is based on the unpaid principal balance and then compared to any remaining unaccreted purchase discount. The current analysis indicates no additional allowance is necessary on our acquired loan portfolio as of June 30, 2018. To the extent that the calculated loss is greater than the remaining unaccreted purchase discount, an allowance is recorded for such difference.

The Company has an internal loan review department that is independent of the lending function to challenge and corroborate the loan grade assigned by the lender and to provide additional analysis in determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. Additionally, the Company utilizes the services of a third party to supplement its loan review efforts.

Non-Accrual and Past Due Loans

Loans are considered past due if the required principal and interest payments have not been received as of the date such payments were due. Loans are placed on non-accrual status when, in management’s opinion, the probability of collection of interest is deemed insufficient to warrant further accrual. For loans placed on non-accrual status, the accrual of interest is discontinued and subsequent payments received are applied to the principal balance. Interest income is recorded after principal has been satisfied and as payments are received. Non-accrual loans may be returned to accrual status if all principal and interest amounts contractually owed are reasonably assured of repayment within a reasonable period and there is a period of at least six months to one year of repayment performance by the borrower depending on the contractual payment terms.

The amount of interest that would have been recorded on non-accrual loans, had the loans not been classified as non-accrual, totaled approximately $3.4 million and $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Interest received on non-accrual loans subsequent to their transfer to non-accrual status totaled $176,000 and $195,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Impaired Loans

Loans are considered impaired when, based upon current information, it is probable the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. All loans classified as special mention, substandard, or doubtful, based on credit risk rating factors, are reviewed to determine whether impairment testing is appropriate. All loan relationships with an outstanding commitment balance above a specified threshold are evaluated for potential impairment. All loan relationships with an outstanding commitment balance below the specified threshold are assigned an allowance allocation percentage that is determined by management and adjusted periodically based on certain factors. An allowance for each impaired loan is calculated based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or at the loan’s observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. All impaired loans are reviewed, at a minimum, on a quarterly basis. Existing valuations are reviewed to determine if additional discounts or new appraisals are required. After this review, when comparing the resulting collateral valuation to the outstanding loan balance, if the discounted collateral value exceeds the loan balance, no specific allocation is reserved.

The following table presents loans that are individually evaluated for impairment (in thousands). Interest income recognized represents interest on accruing loans modified in a troubled debt restructuring (TDR).

Credit Quality

The Company manages credit risk by observing written underwriting standards and the lending policy established by the Board of Directors and management to govern all lending activities. The risk management program requires that each individual loan officer review his or her portfolio on a quarterly basis and assign recommended credit ratings on each loan. These efforts are supplemented by independent reviews performed by a loan review officer and other validations performed by the internal audit department. The results of the reviews are reported directly to the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.

Loans are categorized into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to serve their debt, such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, current economic trends, and other factors. Loans are analyzed individually and classified according to their credit risk. This analysis is performed on a continuous basis. The following definitions are used for risk ratings:

Special Mention: Weakness exists that could cause future impairment, including the deterioration of financial ratios, past due status, and questionable management capabilities. Collateral values generally afford adequate coverage but may not be immediately marketable.

Substandard: Specific and well-defined weaknesses exist that may include poor liquidity and deterioration of financial ratios. Currently the borrower maintains the capacity to service the debt. The loan may be past due and related deposit accounts experiencing overdrafts. Immediate corrective action is necessary.

Table of Contents

Doubtful: Specific weaknesses characterized as Substandard exist that are severe enough to make collection in full unlikely. There is no reliable secondary source of full repayment. Loans classified as Doubtful will usually be placed on non-accrual status. The probability of some loss is extremely high but because of certain important and reasonably specific factors, the amount of loss cannot be determined.

Loans not meeting the criteria above that are analyzed individually as part of the above-described process are considered to be Pass rated loans.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

A TDR is a restructuring of a debt made by the Company to a debtor for economic or legal reasons related to the debtor’s financial difficulties that it would not otherwise consider. The Company grants the concession in an attempt to protect as much of its investment as possible.

The following tables present information about TDRs that were modified during the periods presented by portfolio segment (in thousands):

During the three month periods ending June 30, 2018 and 2017, there were no defaults on any loans that were modified as TDRs during the preceding twelve months. During the six months ended June 30, 2018 there were no defaults on any loans that were modified as TDRs during the preceding twelve months. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, there was one loan relationship with a pre-modification balance of $2.0 million identified as a TDR after a reduction in payments. There were no defaults on any loans that were modified as TDRs during the preceding twelve months. The Company defines a payment default as any loan that is greater than 30 days past due or was past due greater than 30 days at any point during the reporting period, or since the date of modification, whichever is shorter.

For purposes of the determination of an allowance for loan losses on these TDRs, as an identified TDR, the Company considers a loss probable on the loan and, as a result is reviewed for specific impairment in accordance with the Company’s allowance for loan loss methodology. If it is determined losses are probable on such TDRs, either because of delinquency or other credit quality indicator, the Company establishes specific reserves for these loans. As of June 30, 2018, there were no commitments to lend additional funds to debtors owing sums to the Company whose terms have been modified in TDRs.

5. Derivatives

On July 6, 2016, the Company entered into two forward interest rate swap contracts on a reverse repurchase agreement and long-term FHLB advances. The interest rate swap contracts were designated as derivative instruments in a cash flow hedge under ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging to convert forecasted variable interest payment to a fixed rate and the Company has concluded that the forecasted transactions are probable of occurring. For cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the gain or loss related to the derivative instrument is initially reported as a component of other comprehensive income and subsequently reclassified into earnings when the forecasted transaction affects earnings or when the hedge is terminated. The ineffective portion of the gain or loss is reported in earnings immediately.

No ineffectiveness related to the interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges was recognized in the consolidated statements of income for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The accumulated net after-tax income related to the effective cash flow hedge included in accumulated other comprehensive income is reflected in Note 6 - Other Comprehensive (Loss) Income.

The following table discloses the notional amounts and fair value of derivative instruments in the Company's balance sheet as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 (in thousands):

8. Fair Value Measurement

The Company groups assets and liabilities at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. These levels are:

Level 1 – Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.

Level 2 – Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market.

Level 3 – Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use at least one significant assumption not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include use of option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques.

Following is a description of valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities which are either recorded or disclosed at fair value.

Cash and Due From Banks, Interest-Bearing Deposits in Banks and Federal Funds Sold—The carrying value of these short-term instruments is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Securities Available-for-Sale—Securities available-for-sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted prices, if available. If quoted prices are not available, fair values are measured using independent pricing models or other model-based valuation techniques such as the present value of future cash flows, adjusted for the security’s credit rating, prepayment assumptions and other factors such as credit loss assumptions. Level 1 securities include those traded on an active exchange, such as the New York Stock Exchange and U.S. Treasury securities that are traded by dealers or brokers in active over-the-counter market funds.

Table of Contents

Securities are classified as Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy when 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. Level 2 inputs are used to value U.S. Agency securities, mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities, municipal securities, single issue trust preferred securities, certain pooled trust preferred securities, collateralized debt obligations and certain equity securities that are not actively traded.

Securities Held-to-Maturity—The fair value of securities held-to-maturity is estimated using the same measurement techniques as securities available-for-sale.

Other Investments—The carrying value of other investments is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Loans—For disclosure purposes, the fair value of fixed rate loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings. For variable rate loans, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value. The Company does not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis. No adjustment to fair value is taken related to illiquidity discounts. However, from time to time, a loan is considered impaired and an allowance for loan losses is established. Loans for which it is probable that payment of interest and principal will not be made in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement are considered impaired. Once a loan is identified as individually impaired, management uses one of three methods to measure impairment, which, include collateral value, market value of similar debt, and discounted cash flows. Those impaired loans not requiring an allowance represent loans for which the fair value of the expected repayments or collateral exceed the recorded investments in such loans. Impaired loans where an allowance is established based on the fair value of collateral or where the loan balance has been charged down to fair value require classification in the fair value hierarchy. When the fair value of the collateral is based on an observable market price or a current appraised value, the Company records the impaired loan as nonrecurring Level 2. When an appraised value is not available or management determines the fair value of the collateral is further impaired below the appraised value and adjusts the appraisal value by taking an additional discount for market conditions and there is no observable market price, the Company records the impaired loan as nonrecurring Level 3.

For non-performing loans, collateral valuations currently in file are reviewed for acceptability in terms of timeliness and applicability. Although each determination is made based on the facts and circumstances of each credit, generally valuations are no longer considered acceptable when there has been physical deterioration of the property from when it was last appraised, or there has been a significant change in the underlying assumptions of the appraisal. If the valuation is deemed to be unacceptable, a new appraisal is ordered. New appraisals are typically received within 4-6 weeks. While awaiting new appraisals, the valuation in the file is utilized, net of discounts. Discounts are derived from available relevant market data, selling costs, taxes, and insurance. Any perceived collateral deficiency utilizing the discounted value is specifically reserved (as required by ASC Topic 310) until the new appraisal is received or charged off. Thus, provisions or charge-offs are recognized in the period the credit is identified as non-performing.

The following sources are utilized to set appropriate discounts: in-market real estate agents, current local sales data, bank history for devaluation of similar property, Sheriff’s valuations and buy/sell contracts. If a real estate agent is used to market and sell the property, values are discounted 10% for selling costs. Additional discounts may be applied if research from the above sources indicates a discount is appropriate given devaluation of similar property from the time of the initial valuation.

Cash Surrender Value of Life Insurance—Fair value for life insurance cash surrender value is based on cash surrender values indicated by the insurance companies.

Other Real Estate—Other real estate (“ORE”) properties are adjusted to fair value upon transfer of the loans to other real estate. Subsequently, other real estate properties are carried at the net realizable value. Exceptions to obtaining initial appraisals are properties where a buy/sell agreement exists for the loan value or greater, or where a Sheriff’s valuation has been received for properties liquidated through a Sheriff sale. Fair value is based upon independent market prices, appraised values of the collateral or management’s estimation of the value of the collateral. When the fair value of the collateral is based on an observable market price or a current appraised value, the Company records the ORE as nonrecurring Level 2. When an appraised value is not available or management determines the fair value of the collateral is further impaired below the appraised value and adjusts the appraisal value by taking an additional discount for market conditions and there is no observable market prices, the Company records the ORE asset as nonrecurring Level 3.

Assets Held For Sale—Assets held for sale are carried at the lower of carrying value or fair value. Fair value is based upon appraised values.

Derivative Financial Instruments—The fair value of derivatives are determined by an independent valuation firm and are estimated using prices of financial instruments with similar characteristics. As a result, they are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Table of Contents

Deposits—The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts, NOW accounts, and money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of fixed maturity certificates of deposit is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. The estimated fair value does not include customer related intangibles.

Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase—The fair value approximates the carrying value of securities sold under agreements to repurchase due to their short-term nature.

Short-term Federal Home Loan Bank Advances —The fair value approximates the carrying value of short-term FHLB advances due to their short-term nature.

Long-term Federal Home Loan Bank Advances—The fair value of long-term FHLB advances is estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis that applies interest rates currently being offered on similar types of borrowings with similar terms.

Junior Subordinated Debentures—For junior subordinated debentures that bear interest on a floating basis, the carrying amount approximates fair value. For junior subordinated debentures that bear interest on a fixed rate basis, the fair value is estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis that applies interest rates currently being offered on similar types of borrowings.

Commitments to Extend Credit, Standby Letters of Credit and Credit Card Guarantees—Because commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit are generally short-term and made using variable rates, the carrying value and estimated fair value associated with these instruments are immaterial.

The Company records impaired loans at fair value, measured at the fair value of the collateral for collateral-dependent loans. Impaired loans are considered level 3 assets when measured using appraisals from third parties, discounted for selling costs and other collateral-based discounts. Other real estate properties are considered level 3 assets when measured using appraisals from third parties, discounted for selling costs, information from comparable sales and marketability of the property. Assets held for sale are considered level 2 assets when measured using appraisals from third parties.

Limitations

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Company’s holdings of a particular financial instrument. Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Company’s financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on many judgments. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

Fair value estimates are based on existing on and off-balance sheet financial instruments without attempting to estimate the value of anticipated future business and the value of assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments. Significant assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments include deferred income taxes and premises and equipment. In addition, the tax ramifications related to the realization of the unrealized gains and losses can have a significant effect on fair value estimates and have not been considered in the estimates.

The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments are as follows at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 (in thousands):

9. Subsequent Events

On August 1, 2018, the Bank received an $8.5 million payoff of a significant non-accruing classified energy relationship. Assuming this payoff had occurred on June 30, 2018, pro forma Classified Assets to Bank Capital would have been reduced to 47.9% from 52.9% and energy loans as a percentage of total loans would have decreased from 14.5% to 13.8%.

•	changes in interest rates and market prices that could affect the net interest margin, asset valuation, and expense levels;


•	changes in local economic and business conditions in the markets we serve, including, without limitation, changes related to the oil and gas industries that could adversely affect customers and their ability to repay borrowings under agreed upon terms, adversely affect the value of the underlying collateral related to their borrowings, and reduce demand for loans;


•	increases in competitive pressure in the banking and financial services industries;


•	increased competition for deposits and loans which could affect compositions, rates and terms;


•	changes in the levels of prepayments received on loans and investment securities that adversely affect the yield and value of the earning assets;

•	future examinations by our regulatory authorities, including the possibility that the regulatory authorities may, among other things, impose additional enforcement actions or conditions on our operations, require additional regulatory remediation efforts or require us to increase our allowance for loan losses or write-down assets;


•	changes in the availability of funds resulting from reduced liquidity or increased costs;


•	the timing and impact of future acquisitions or divestitures, the success or failure of integrating acquired operations, and the ability to capitalize on growth opportunities upon entering new markets;


•	the ability to acquire, operate, and maintain effective and efficient operating systems;


•	increased asset levels and changes in the composition of assets that would impact capital levels and regulatory capital ratios;


•	loss of critical personnel and the challenge of hiring qualified personnel at reasonable compensation levels;

Critical Accounting Policies

Certain critical accounting policies affect the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. Our significant accounting policies are described in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in this report. The accounting principles we follow and the methods of applying these principles conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and general banking practices. Our most critical accounting policy relates to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, which reflects the estimated losses resulting from the inability of its borrowers to make loan payments. The determination of the adequacy of the allowance involves significant judgment and complexity and is based on many factors. If the financial condition of our borrowers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, the estimates would be updated and additional provisions for loan losses may be required. See Asset Quality – Nonperforming Assets and Allowance for Loan Losses and Note 1 and Note 3 of the footnotes to the consolidated financial statements.

Another of our critical accounting policies relates to the valuation of goodwill, intangible assets and other purchase accounting adjustments. We account for acquisitions in accordance with ASC Topic No. 805, which requires the use of the purchase method of accounting. Under this method, we are required to record assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their fair value, including intangible assets. Determination of fair value involves estimates based on internal valuations of discounted cash flow analyses performed, third party valuations, or other valuation techniques that involve subjective assumptions. Additionally, the term of the useful lives and appropriate amortization periods of intangible assets is subjective. Resulting goodwill from an acquisition under the purchase method of accounting represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized, but is evaluated for impairment annually or more frequently if deemed necessary. If the fair value of an asset exceeds the carrying amount of the asset, no charge to goodwill is made. If the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the asset, goodwill will be adjusted through a charge to earnings. Given the instability of the economic environment, it is reasonably possible that the methodology of the assessment of potential loan losses and goodwill impairment could change in the near-term or could result in impairment going forward.

A third critical accounting policy relates to deferred tax assets and liabilities. We record deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Future tax benefits, such as net operating loss carry forwards, are recognized to the extent that realization of such benefits is more likely than not. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the assets and liabilities are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income tax expense in the period that includes the enactment date. In the event the future tax consequences of differences between the financial reporting bases and the tax bases of our assets and liabilities results in deferred tax assets, an evaluation of the probability of being able to realize the future benefits indicated by such assets is required. A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that a portion or the full amount of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. In assessing the ability to realize the deferred tax assets, management considers the scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies. A deferred tax liability is not recognized for portions of the allowance for loan losses for income tax purposes in excess of the financial statement balance. Such a deferred tax liability will only be recognized when it becomes apparent that those temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future. A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% more likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded.

Results of Operations

For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2018 and 2017

Table of Contents

Net loss available to common shareholders totaled $1.5 million, or $0.09 per share, for the three months ended June 30, 2018, compared to a net loss available to common shareholders of $6.2 million, or $0.51 per share, for the three months ended June 30, 2017. The second quarter of 2018 included non-operating expenses totaling $5.3 million of regulatory remediation costs and the second quarter of 2017 included non-operating expenses of $2.4 million consisting of $1.3 million for severance and $1.0 million for costs associated with branch closures. Excluding these non-operating expenses, diluted earnings for the second quarter of 2018 were $0.16 per diluted share, compared to a loss of $0.38 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2017.

Fully taxable-equivalent ("FTE") net interest income was $17.0 million for the second quarter of 2018, a $1.4 million decrease compared to $18.4 million for the second quarter of 2017. Our annualized net interest margin, on a FTE basis, decreased 20 basis points in prior year quarterly comparison, from 4.18% for the second quarter of 2017 to 3.98% for the second quarter of 2018. Excluding the impact of purchase accounting adjustments, the FTE margin decreased 14 basis points, from 4.09% to 3.95% for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2018, respectively.

Net interest income decreased $1.3 million in quarterly comparison, resulting from a $1.0 million decrease in interest income and a $302,000 increase in interest expense.

Excluding non-operating expenses of $5.3 million for the second quarter of 2018 and $2.4 million for the second quarter of 2017, noninterest expenses decreased $298,000 in quarterly comparison and consisted primarily of a $194,000 decrease in salaries and employee benefits costs and a $235,000 decrease in occupancy expense, which were partially offset by a $164,000 increase in legal and professional fees. The provision for loan losses decreased $12.1 million in quarterly comparison. The provision decrease is primarily due to payoffs and charge offs of large energy nonaccrual loans and a release of general energy reserves. A $237,000 income tax benefit was reported for the second quarter of 2018, compared to a $3.2 million income tax benefit that was reported in the second quarter of 2017.

Dividends on preferred stock totaled $810,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and $811,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017. Dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock were $720,000 for the second quarter of 2018, unchanged from $720,000 for the second quarter of 2017. Dividends on the Series C Preferred Stock issued with the December 28, 2012 acquisition of PSB Financial Corporation (“PSB”) totaled $90,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and $91,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017.

For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 and 2017

We reported a net loss available to common shareholders of $1.9 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to net loss available to common shareholders of $4.5 million, or $0.39 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The first six months of 2018 included non-operating expenses totaling $10.4 million which consisted of $9.2 million of regulatory remediation costs, a $883,000 loss on the transfer of loans held for sale, $100,000 on fees related to the bulk loan sale, and a $145,000 one-time charge related to discontinued branch projects. Excluding these non-operating expenses, the operating earnings per share for the first six months of 2018 was $0.37.

FTE net interest income was $34.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, a $2.3 million decrease compared to $36.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. Our annualized net interest margin, on a FTE basis, was 4.07% for the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to 4.18% for the same period in 2017. Excluding the impact of purchase accounting adjustments, the FTE margin decreased 5 basis points, from 4.10% to 4.05% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2018, respectively.

Noninterest income decreased $556,000 in year-over-year comparison and consisted primarily of a $605,000 decrease in service charges on deposit accounts, and a $152,000 decrease in mortgage lending income which were partially offset by a $192,000 increase in ATM/ debit card income.

Excluding non-operating expenses of $10.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and $2.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017, noninterest expenses decreased $690,000 in year-over-year comparison and consisted primarily of a $1.2 million decrease in salaries and benefits costs, a $211,000 decrease in ATM/ debit card expense, and a $814,000 decrease in occupancy expense, which were partially offset by an increase of $1.5 million in legal and professional fees. The provision for loan losses decreased $14.9 million in year-over-year comparison, from $15.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 to $440,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2018, primarily due to an $11.2 million reduction of charge-offs for the comparable period. A $271,000 income tax benefit was reported for the first six months of 2018, compared to income tax benefit of $2.6 million for the first six months of 2017.

Net Interest Income

Table of Contents

Our primary source of earnings is net interest income, which is the difference between interest earned on loans and investments and interest paid on deposits and other interest-bearing liabilities. Changes in the volume and mix of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities combined with changes in market rates of interest greatly affect net interest income. Our net interest margin on a taxable equivalent basis, which is net interest income as a percentage of average earning assets, was 3.98% and 4.18% for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Tables 1 and 2 below analyze the changes in net interest income in the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.

FTE net interest income decreased $1.4 million in prior year quarterly comparison. Interest income on loans decreased $1.4 million due to a decrease in the average balance of loans of $145 million in prior year quarterly comparison. The average yield on loans increased 20 basis points in prior year quarterly comparison, from 5.35% to 5.55%.

Investment securities totaled $376.7 million, or 20.3% of total assets at June 30, 2018, versus $367.2 million, or 19.8% of total assets at March 31, 2018. The investment portfolio had an effective duration of 3.53 years and a net unrealized loss of $9.3 million at June 30, 2018. FTE interest income on investments decreased $544,000 in prior year quarterly comparison. The average volume of investment securities decreased $60.1 million in prior year quarterly comparison, and the average tax equivalent yield on investment securities decreased 15 basis points, from 2.69% to 2.54%.

The average yield on all earning assets decreased 12 basis points in prior year quarterly comparison, from 4.52% for the second quarter of 2017 to 4.40% for the second quarter of 2018.

Net interest income decreased $1.3 million in quarterly comparison, resulting from a $1.0 million decrease in interest income and a $302,000 increase in interest expense. Increases in interest reflect a $437,000 increase in interest expense on deposits and a $29,000 increase in interest expense on FHLB advances, which were partially offset by a $211,000 decrease in interest expense on repurchase agreements.

As a result of these changes in volume and yield on earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, the FTE net interest margin decreased 20 basis points, from 4.18% for the second quarter of 2017 to 3.98% for the second quarter of 2018. Excluding purchase accounting adjustments on loans, deposits and FHLB borrowings, the FTE margin decreased 14 basis points, from 4.09% for the second quarter of 2017 to 3.95% for the second quarter of 2018.

Non-interest income decreased $341,000 in quarterly comparison, from $5.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 to $4.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The decrease consisted primarily of a $313,000 decrease in service charges on deposit accounts, a $12,000 decrease in credit card interchange income, and a $101,000 decrease in mortgage lending income which were partially offset by an $111,000 increase in ATM/debit card income.

Non-interest income decreased $559,000 in year-to-date comparison, from $10.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 to $9.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and consisted primarily of a $608,000 decrease in service charges on deposit accounts, a $152,000 decrease in mortgage lending income, offset by a $192,000 increase in ATM/debit card income.

Non-interest Expense

Total non-interest expense was $22.3 million and $44.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to $19.6 million and $36.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017. Our recurring non-interest expense consists of salaries and employee benefits, occupancy expense, ATM and debit card expense and other operating expenses.

Table 6 presents non-interest expense for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.

Non-interest expenses increased $2.7 million in quarterly comparison. The second quarter of 2018 included non-operating expenses totaling $5.3 million which consisted of $8,000 loss on the transfer of loans to held for sale, $5.3 million of regulatory remediation costs, and $12,000 of legal fees related to the bulk loan sale. Excluding non-operating expenses of $5.3 million for the second quarter of 2018 and $2.4 million for the second quarter of 2017, noninterest expenses decreased $298,000 in quarterly comparison and consisted primarily of a $194,000 decrease in salaries and employee benefits costs and a $235,000 decrease in occupancy expense, which were partially offset by a $164,000 increase in legal and professional fees. The provision for loan losses decreased $12.1 million in quarterly comparison. The provision decrease is primarily due to payoffs and charge offs of large energy nonaccrual loans and a release of general energy reserves.

The $9.2 million of regulatory remediation costs incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2018 represented consulting and outsourcing costs for assistance in complying with terms of our regulatory written agreement.

Salaries and employee benefits costs decreased $1.2 million in year-to-date comparison and included a $801,000 decrease in salary costs, a $139,000 decrease in bonus and incentive costs, and a $189,000 decrease in stock compensation expense. A decrease in the number of employees on a full-time equivalent basis of 61 during the same period, from 489 at June 30, 2017 to 428 at June 30, 2018, branch closures contributed to the decrease in salaries expense and a decrease in the number of employees.

Occupancy expense decreased $814,000 in year-to-date comparison and is primarily due to the closure and sale of 9 branches in 2017 and 6 branches in 2018.

ATM and debit card expense decreased $211,000 in year-to-date comparison, primarily due to the 15 branch closures.

The increase in legal and professional fees is primarily due to increased legal fees related to the elevated level of non-performing loans as well as increased outsourcing costs related to internal audit services.

Our energy-related loan portfolio at June 30, 2018 totaled $153.6 million, or 14.5% of total loans, down from $172.8 million at March 31, 2018. The majority of MidSouth’s energy lending is focused on oil field service companies. Of the 286 total relationships in our energy-related loan portfolio, 32 relationships totaling $51.3 million were classified, with $40.4 million on nonaccrual status at June 30, 2018. At June 30, 2018, reserves for potential energy-related loan losses approximated 5.6% of energy loans.

Within the $414.5 million commercial real estate portfolio, $389.6 million is secured by commercial property, $19.3 million is secured by multi-family property, and $5.6 million is secured by farmland. Of the $389.6 million secured by commercial property, $251.2 million, or 64.5%, is owner-occupied. Of the $141.1 million residential real estate portfolio, 77.3% represented loans secured by first liens.

Assets held for sale totaled $4.0 million at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 and consisted of seven former branch buildings that were previously closed.

Deposits increased $43.3 million from year-end 2017. Our stable core deposit base, which excludes time deposits, totaled $1.3 billion at June 30, 2018 and March 31, 2018 and accounted for 88.5% of deposits compared to 88.3% of deposits, respectively.

Long-term FHLB advances totaled $10.0 million at June 30, 2018, compared to $25.2 million at June 30, 2017. Long-term FHLB advances at June 30, 2018 consisted of one advance that matures in January 2019 and bears a fixed interest rate of 1.985%. The FHLB advances are collateralized by a blanket lien on first mortgages and other qualifying loans. Short-term FHLB advances totaled $27.5 million at June 30, 2018 and consisted of two advances with a maturity of 1 month at a fixed interest rate of 1.88%. There were no short-term FHLB advances outstanding at June 30, 2017.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

In the normal course of operations, the Company engages in a variety of financial transactions that, in accordance with GAAP, are not recorded in the financial statements. These transactions involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit, interest rate, and liquidity risk. Such transactions are used primarily to manage customers’ requests for funding and take the form of loan commitments, letters of credit and lines of credit. For the period ended June 30, 2018, we did not engage in any off-balance sheet transactions reasonably likely to have a material impact on our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

Liquidity and Capital

Table of Contents

Bank Liquidity

Liquidity is the availability of funds to meet maturing contractual obligations and to fund operations. The Bank’s primary liquidity needs involve its ability to accommodate customers’ demands for deposit withdrawals as well as customers’ requests for credit. Liquidity is deemed adequate when sufficient cash to meet these needs can be promptly raised at a reasonable cost to the Bank.

Liquidity is available through four sources: a stable base of funding sources, an adequate level of assets that can be readily converted into cash, borrowing lines with correspondent banks and brokered deposits. Our core deposits are our most stable and important source of funding. Cash deposits at other banks, federal funds sold, and principal payments received on loans and mortgage-backed securities provide additional primary sources of liquidity. Approximately $33.7 million in projected cash flows from securities repayments for the remainder of 2018 provides an additional source of liquidity.

The Bank also has significant borrowing capacity with the FRB-Atlanta and with the FHLB–Dallas. As of June 30, 2018, we had no borrowings with the FRB-Atlanta. Long-term FHLB-Dallas advances totaled $10.0 million at June 30, 2018 and consisted of one advance that matures in January 2019 and bears a fixed interest rate of 1.985%. Short-term FHLB advances totaled $27.5 million at June 30, 2018 and consisted of two advances with a maturity of 1 month at a fixed interest rate of 1.88%. Under existing agreements with the FHLB-Dallas, our borrowing capacity totaled $291.6 million at June 30, 2018. The Bank has the ability to post additional collateral of approximately $148.1 million if necessary to meet liquidity needs. Additionally, $143.2 million in loan collateral is pledged under a Borrower-in-Custody line with the FRB-Atlanta. Unsecured borrowing lines totaling $33.5 million are available through correspondent banks. We utilize these contingency funding alternatives to meet deposit volatility, which is more likely in the current environment, given unusual competitive offerings within our markets.

Company Liquidity

At the Company level, cash is needed primarily to meet interest payments on the junior subordinated debentures, dividends on our common stock and dividend payments on the Series B and Series C Preferred Stocks. The dividend rate on the $32.0 million of Series B Preferred Stock issued to the U.S. Treasury for participation in the Small Business Lending Fund (“SBLF”) was 9.0% for the three month period ended June 30, 2018.

On December 28, 2012, the Company issued 756,511 shares of common stock and 99,971 shares of Series C Preferred Stock in connection with the PSB acquisition. As of March 31, 2018, there were 89,875 shares of Series C Preferred Stock issued and outstanding. The Series C Preferred Stock is entitled to the payment of noncumulative dividends, if and when declared by the Company’s Board of Directors, at the rate of 4.00% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears on January 15, April 15, July 15 and October 15 of each year. The Series C Preferred Stock paid dividends totaling $90,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2018.

On June 13, 2017, the Company completed the sale of 4,583,334 shares of its common stock pursuant to an underwritten public offering, and on July 11, 2017, the Company completed the sale of an additional 516,700 shares of common stock, pursuant to the partial exercise of the option to purchase additional shares granted to the underwriter. After deducting the underwriting discount and costs associated with the capital raise, the offering resulted in net proceeds of $57.2 million. The Company, subject to regulatory approval, intends to use $32.0 million of the net proceeds to redeem all of the outstanding Series B Preferred Stock issued to the U.S. Treasury as a result of its participation in the SBLF. The Company intends to use the remaining portion of the net proceeds to enhance its capital structure, to fund future organic growth, for working capital, and other general corporate purposes.

Due to the loss reported for year ended December 31, 2017, we currently do not have the ability to approve dividends from the Bank to the Company without prior approval from the OCC. As of June 30, 2018, the Company had $47.8 million of cash to fund general corporate obligations. The Company renewed a $75.0 million Universal Shelf Registration during the third quarter of 2015 and has $13.8 million remaining after completion of its recent capital raise and overallotment issuance.

Capital

The Company and the Bank are required to maintain certain minimum capital levels. Risk-based capital requirements are intended to make regulatory capital more sensitive to the risk profile of an institution's assets. Effective January 1, 2015, the Company and the Bank adopted the Basel III rules which included new minimum risk-based and leverage ratios, and modified capital and asset definitions for purposes of calculating these ratios. These rules also created a new regulatory capital standard based on Tier 1 common equity and increased the minimum leverage and risk-based capital ratios applicable to all banking organizations.

In addition, the Basel III rules subject banking organizations to certain limitations on capital distributions and discretionary bonus payments to executive officers if the organization does not maintain a capital conservation buffer phased in by 2019 of 2.5% above the new regulatory minimum capital ratios. The effect of the capital conservation buffer once fully implemented in 2019 will be to increase the minimum common equity Tier 1 capital ratio to 7.0%, the minimum Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio to 8.5% and the minimum total risk-based capital

Table of Contents

ratio to 10.5% for banking organizations seeking to avoid the limitations on capital distributions and discretionary bonus payments to executive officers. The new minimum capital requirements were effective on January 1, 2015 for community banking organizations, such as MidSouth, whereas other requirements of the Basel III rules including the conservation buffer phase in over time.

At June 30, 2018, the Company and the Bank were in compliance with statutory minimum capital requirements and were classified as “well capitalized.” Minimum capital requirements include a total risk-based capital ratio (total risk-based capital to risk-weighted assets) of 8.0%, with Tier 1 capital not less than 6.0%, a Tier 1 leverage ratio (Tier 1 to total average adjusted assets) of 4.0% based upon the regulators latest composite rating of the institution, and a common equity Tier 1 capital to total risk-weighted assets of 4.5%. However, effective July 19, 2017, the OCC established higher individual minimum capital ratios for the Bank. Specifically, the Bank must maintain a Tier 1 leverage ratio of at least 8%, and a total risk-based capital ratio of at least 12%. The Bank had a Tier 1 leverage capital ratio of 10.10% and a total risk-based capital ratio of 15.61% at June 30, 2018. As of June 30, 2018, the Company’s Tier 1 leverage ratio was 12.71%, Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets was 18.07%, total capital to risk-weighted assets was 19.33% and common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets was 13.20%.

Asset Quality

Credit Risk Management

We manage credit risk primarily by observing written, board approved policies that govern all credit underwriting and approval activities. Our Chief Credit Officer (“CCO”) is responsible for credit underwriting as well as management of classified and criticized assets for the Bank. The role of the CCO includes on-going review and development of lending policies, commercial credit analysis, centralized consumer underwriting, and overall credit risk management procedures. The current risk management process requires that each individual loan officer review his or her portfolio on a quarterly basis and assign recommended credit ratings on each loan. These efforts are supplemented by independent reviews performed by the loan review officer and other validations performed by the internal audit department. The results of the reviews are reported directly to the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.

Credit concentrations are monitored and reported quarterly whereby individual customer and aggregate industry leverage, profitability, risk rating distributions, and liquidity are evaluated for each major standard industry classification segment. At June 30, 2018, one industry segment concentration, the oil and gas industry, aggregated more than 10% of our loan portfolio. Our exposure in the oil and gas (energy-related) industry, including related service and manufacturing industries, totaled approximately $153.6 million, or 14.5% of total loans. Of the 286 credit relationships in the energy-related loan portfolio, 32 relationships totaling $51.3 million were classified with $40.4 million on nonaccrual status at June 30, 2018.

The federal banking agencies, including the OCC, have promulgated guidance governing financial institutions with concentrations in commercial real estate lending. The guidance provides that a bank has a concentration in commercial real estate lending if (1) total reported loans for construction, land development and other land represent 100% or more of total capital or (2) total reported loans secured by multifamily and non-farm residential properties and loans for construction, land development and other land represent 300% or more of total capital. Owner occupied loans are excluded from this second category. We monitor our exposure to each of these segments to ensure the concentration in consistent with our risk tolerance. At June 30, 2018, loans for construction, land development and other land totaled approximately $98.1 million, or 47% of our bank's risk-based capital. Loans secured by multifamily and non-farm residential properties and loans for construction, land development and other land totaled approximately $254.0 million at June 30, 2018, or 123% of our bank's risk-based capital. Additional information regarding credit quality by loan classification is provided in Note 3 – Credit Quality of Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses and Note 8 – Fair Value Measurement in the notes to the interim consolidated financial statements.

Nonperforming assets totaled $74.9 million at June 30, 2018, an increase of $17.6 million from the $57.3 million reported at year-end 2017 and an increase of $18.5 million from the $56.4 million reported at June 30, 2017. The increase since December 31, 2017 is primarily attributable to $46.1 million of loans placed on non-accrual during the period. This increase was partially offset by the payoffs/paydowns of $20.7 million of non-accrual loans and the decrease of $4.3 million in nonperforming loans held for sale.

Allowance coverage for nonperforming loans was 31.97% at June 30, 2018 compared to 53.77% at December 31, 2017 and 44.88% at June 30, 2017. The ALL/total loans ratio was 2.22% at June 30, 2018, compared to 2.27% at year-end 2017 and 1.99% at June 30, 2017. Including valuation accounting adjustments on acquired loans, the total adjustments and ALL was 2.30% of loans at June 30, 2018. The ratio of annualized net charge-offs to total loans decreased to 0.87% for the three months ended June 30, 2018, compared to 2.94% for the three months ended December 31, 2017, and 4.01% for the three months ended June 30, 2017.

Total nonperforming assets to total loans plus ORE and other assets repossessed increased to 7.07% at June 30, 2018 from 4.83% at December 31, 2017 and 4.54% at June 30, 2017. Performing troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) totaled $1.0 million at June 30, 2018, compared to $1.4 million at December 31, 2017 and $1.7 million at June 30, 2017. Classified assets, including ORE, were $105.8 million at June 30, 2018 compared to $113.7 million at March 31, 2018. Additional information regarding impaired loans is included in Note 3 – Credit Quality of Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses and Note 8 – Fair Value Measurement in the notes to the interim consolidated financial statements.

Quarterly evaluations of the allowance for loan losses are performed in accordance with GAAP and regulatory guidelines. The ALL is comprised of specific reserves assigned to each impaired loan for which a probable loss has been identified as well as general reserves to maintain the allowance at an acceptable level for other loans in the portfolio where historical loss experience is available that indicates certain probable losses may exist. Factors considered in determining provisions include estimated losses in significant credits; known deterioration in concentrations of credit; historical loss experience; trends in nonperforming assets; volume, maturity and composition of the loan portfolio; off-balance sheet credit risk; lending policies and control systems; national and local economic conditions; the experience, ability and depth of lending management; and the results of examinations of the loan portfolio by regulatory agencies and others. The processes by which we determine the appropriate level of the ALL, and the corresponding provision for probable credit losses, involves considerable judgment; therefore, no assurance can be given that future losses will not vary from current estimates. We believe the $23.5 million in the ALL as of June 30, 2018 is sufficient to cover probable losses in the loan portfolio.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices

Table of Contents

The consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, presented herein, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without considering the change in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of the Company’s operations. Unlike most industrial companies, nearly all the assets and liabilities of the Company are financial. As a result, interest rates have a greater impact on the Company’s performance than do the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same extent as the prices of goods and services.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Certain financial information included in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is determined by methods other than in accordance with GAAP. Table 7 below presents a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures include “core net interest income”, “core net interest margin”, "diluted earnings per share, operating" and "operating earnings available to common shareholders". “Core net interest income” is defined as net interest income excluding net purchase accounting adjustments. “Core net interest margin” is defined as core net interest income expressed as a percentage of average earnings assets. "Diluted earnings per share, operating" is defined as net earnings available to common shareholders adjusted for specified one-time items divided by diluted weighted-average shares. "Operating earnings available to common shareholders" is defined as net earnings available to common shareholders adjusted for specified one-time items.

We use non-GAAP measures because we believe they are useful for evaluating our financial condition and performance over periods of time, as well as in managing and evaluating our business and in discussions about our performance. We also believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide users of our financial information with a meaningful measure for assessing our financial condition as well as comparison to financial results for prior periods. These results should not be viewed as a substitute for results determined in accordance with GAAP, and are not necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that other companies may use.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

There have been no significant changes from the information regarding market risk disclosed under the heading “Funding Sources - Interest Rate Sensitivity” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms.

During the second quarter of 2018, there was no change in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Part II – Other Information

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

The Bank has been named as a defendant in various legal actions arising from normal business activities in which damages of various amounts are claimed. While the amount, if any, of ultimate liability with respect to such matters cannot be currently determined, management believes, after consulting with legal counsel, that any such liability will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. However, in the event of unexpected future developments in these matters, if the ultimate resolution of any such matter is unfavorable, the result may be material to the Company’s consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations or consolidated cash flows.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

We face a risk of noncompliance and enforcement action with the Bank Secrecy Act and other anti-money laundering statutes and regulations.

The Bank Secrecy Act, the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001, and other laws and regulations require financial institutions, among other duties, to institute and maintain an effective anti-money laundering program (“BSA/AML Program”) and file suspicious activity and currency transaction reports as appropriate. Failure or the inability to comply with these laws and regulations could result in fines or penalties, curtailment of expansion opportunities, enforcement actions, intervention or sanctions by regulators and costly litigation or expensive additional controls and systems. We have developed policies and continue to augment procedures and systems designed to remediate and strengthen our BSA/AML Program. Our remediation measures will result in increased expense to the Bank and the issues giving rise to those measures could result in other consequences that could adversely affect us such as those outlined above.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

The Company did not sell any unregistered equity securities or repurchase any equity securities during the quarter ended June 30, 2018.

Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities.

None.

Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures.

None.

Item 5. Other Information.

None.
