Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. You can identify forward-looking statements by words such as “may,” “hope,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “project,” “potential,” “seek,” “continue,” “could,” “would,” “future” or the negative of those terms or other words of similar meaning. You should read statements that contain these words carefully because they discuss our future expectations or state other “forward-looking” information. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements relating to anticipated future operating and financial performance measures, including net interest margin, credit quality, business initiatives, growth opportunities and growth rates, among other things, and encompass any estimate, prediction, expectation, projection, opinion, anticipation, outlook or statement of belief included therein as well as the management assumptions underlying these forward-looking statements. You should be aware that the occurrence of the events described under the caption “Risk Factors” in Trustmark’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Should one or more of these risks materialize, or should any such underlying assumptions prove to be significantly different, actual results may vary significantly from those anticipated, estimated, projected or expected.

Risks that could cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations of Management include, but are not limited to, actions by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (FRB) that impact the level of market interest rates, local, state, national and international economic and market conditions, conditions in the housing and real estate markets in the regions in which Trustmark operates and the extent and duration of the current volatility in the credit and financial markets, changes in the level of nonperforming assets and charge-offs, an increase in unemployment levels and slowdowns in economic growth, changes in our ability to measure the fair value of assets in our portfolio, material changes in the level and/or volatility of market interest rates, the impacts related to or resulting from bank failures and other economic and industry volatility, including potential increased regulatory requirements, the demand for the products and services we offer, potential unexpected adverse outcomes in pending litigation matters, our ability to attract and retain noninterest-bearing deposits and other low-cost funds, competition in loan and deposit pricing, as well as the entry of new competitors into our markets through de novo expansion and acquisitions, economic conditions, changes in accounting standards and practices, including changes in the interpretation of existing standards, that affect our consolidated financial statements, changes in consumer spending, borrowings and savings habits, technological changes, changes in the financial performance or condition of our borrowers, greater than expected costs or difficulties related to the integration of acquisitions or new products and lines of business, cyber-attacks and other breaches which could affect our information system security, natural disasters, environmental disasters, pandemics or other health crises, acts of war or terrorism, and other risks described in our filings with the SEC.

Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise any of this information, whether as the result of new information, future events or developments or otherwise.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

Note 1 – Business, Basis of Financial Statement Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

Trustmark Corporation (Trustmark) is a bank holding company headquartered in Jackson, Mississippi. Through its subsidiaries, Trustmark operates as a financial services organization providing banking and financial solutions to corporate institutions and individual customers through offices in Alabama (includes the Georgia Loan Production Office), Florida, Mississippi, Tennessee and Texas.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Trustmark and all other entities in which Trustmark has a controlling financial interest. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform to the current period presentation.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements, and notes thereto, included in Trustmark’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 (2023 Annual Report).

Operating results for the interim periods disclosed herein are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year or any future period. In the opinion of Management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for the fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements have been included. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with these accounting principles requires Management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and income and expense during the reporting periods and the related disclosures. Although Management’s estimates contemplate current conditions and how they are expected to change in the future, it is reasonably possible that in 2024 actual conditions could vary from those anticipated, which could affect Trustmark’s financial condition and results of operations. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Subsequent Events

On April 23, 2024, Trustmark National Bank (TNB) announced that it had entered into a definitive agreement to sell its wholly owned subsidiary, Fisher Brown Bottrell Insurance, Inc., (FBBI) to Marsh & McLennan Agency LLC (MMA) for $345.0 million in cash. The sale of FBBI, among the five largest bank-affiliated insurance brokerages in the nation and one of the largest agencies in the Southeast, is expected to allow Trustmark to capitalize on the strong valuation premiums in the insurance brokerage sector. The $345.0 million transaction value represents approximately 5.9 times FBBI’s 2023 revenue and 28.0 times net income. The estimated after-tax proceeds of $228.0 million are expected to be used to reposition Trustmark’s balance sheet to increase earnings, elevate profitability and enhance capital. TNB anticipates that the transaction, which is subject to standard closing conditions and regulatory approval, will close by the end of the second quarter of 2024. Upon consummation of this transaction, Trustmark will no longer engage in insurance brokerage activity and will no longer report an Insurance Segment in its periodic and other reports as filed with the SEC.

During 2022, Trustmark reclassified a total of $766.0 million of securities available for sale to securities held to maturity. At the date of these transfers, the net unrealized holding loss on the available for sale securities totaled approximately $91.9 million ($68.9 million, net of tax).

The securities were transferred at fair value, which became the cost basis for the securities held to maturity. The net unrealized holding loss will be amortized over the remaining life of the securities as a yield adjustment in a manner consistent with the amortization or 10


accretion of the original purchase premium or discount on the associated security. There were no gains or losses recognized as a result of these transfers. At March 31, 2024, the net unamortized, unrealized loss on transferred securities included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the accompanying balance sheet totaled $54.8 million compared to $57.6 million at December 31, 2023.

ACL on Securities

Securities Available for Sale

Quarterly, Trustmark evaluates if any security has a fair value less than its amortized cost. Once these securities are identified, in order to determine whether a decline in fair value resulted from a credit loss or other factors, Trustmark performs further analysis. If Trustmark determines that a credit loss exists, the credit portion of the allowance is measured using a discounted cash flow (DCF) analysis using the effective interest rate as of the security’s purchase date. The amount of credit loss recorded by Trustmark is limited to the amount by which the amortized cost exceeds the fair value. The DCF analysis utilizes contractual maturities, as well as third-party credit ratings and cumulative default rates published annually by Moody’s Investor Service (Moody’s).

At both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the results of the analysis did not identify any securities that warranted DCF analysis, and no credit loss was recognized on any of the securities available for sale.

Accrued interest receivable is excluded from the estimate of credit losses for securities available for sale. At both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, accrued interest receivable totaled $3.7 million for securities available for sale and was reported in other assets on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

Securities Held to Maturity

At both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the potential for credit loss exposure for Trustmark's securities held to maturity was $340 thousand and consisted of municipal securities. After applying appropriate probability of default (PD) and loss given default (LGD) assumptions, the total amount of current expected credit losses was deemed immaterial. Therefore, no reserve was recorded at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Accrued interest receivable is excluded from the estimate of credit losses for securities held to maturity. At March 31, 2024, accrued interest receivable totaled $2.7 million for securities held to maturity compared to $2.6 million at December 31, 2023 and was reported in other assets on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

At both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, Trustmark had no securities held to maturity that were past due 30 days or more as to principal or interest payments. Trustmark had no securities held to maturity classified as nonaccrual at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Trustmark monitors the credit quality of securities held to maturity on a monthly basis through credit ratings. The following table presents the amortized cost of Trustmark’s securities held to maturity by credit rating, as determined by Moody’s, at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 ($ in thousands):

The unrealized losses shown above are due to increases in market rates over the yields available at the time of purchase of the underlying securities and not credit quality. Trustmark does not intend to sell these securities and it is more likely than not that Trustmark will not be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be at maturity.

Securities Gains and Losses

During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, there were no gross realized gains or losses as a result of calls and dispositions of securities. Realized gains and losses are determined using the specific identification method and are included in noninterest income as securities gains (losses), net.

Securities Pledged

Securities with a carrying value of $2.291 billion and $2.321 billion at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, were pledged to collateralize public deposits and securities sold under repurchase agreements and for other purposes as permitted by law. At both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, none of these securities were pledged under the Federal Reserve Discount Window program to provide additional contingency funding capacity. 12


Contractual Maturities

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of securities available for sale and held to maturity at March 31, 2024, by contractual maturity, are shown below ($ in thousands).

Accrued interest receivable is not included in the amortized cost basis of Trustmark’s LHFI. At March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, accrued interest receivable for LHFI totaled $70.3 million and $71.0 million, respectively, with no related ACL and was reported in other assets on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

Loan Concentrations

Trustmark does not have any loan concentrations other than those reflected in the preceding table, which exceed 10% of total LHFI. At March 31, 2024, Trustmark’s geographic loan distribution was concentrated primarily in its five key market regions: Alabama, Florida, Mississippi, Tennessee and Texas. Accordingly, the ultimate collectability of a substantial portion of these loans is susceptible to changes in market conditions in these areas.

Nonaccrual and Past Due LHFI

No material interest income was recognized in the income statement on nonaccrual LHFI for each of the periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. 13

Modified LHFI

Occasionally, Trustmark modifies loans for borrowers experiencing financial difficulties by providing payment concessions, interest-only payments for an extended period of time, maturity extensions or interest rate reductions. Other concessions may arise from court proceedings or may be imposed by law. In some cases, Trustmark provides multiple types of concessions on one loan.

The following tables present the amortized cost of LHFI at the end of each of the periods presented of loans modified to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty disaggregated by class of loan and type of modification ($ in thousands). The percentage of the amortized cost basis of LHFI that were modified to borrowers in financial distress as compared to the amortized cost basis of each class of LHFI is also presented below:

Loans secured by real estate:
Secured by nonfarm, nonresidential properties Renewed with an extended amortization period and lowered the monthly payment amount for the borrower.
Other loans secured by real estate:
Secured by 1-4 family residential properties Extended the amortization periods on four loans by a weighted-average of 14 years, which reduced the aggregate monthly payment amounts for the borrowers.

Trustmark had no unused commitments on modified loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty at March 31, 2024.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, payment defaults of LHFI that were modified within the twelve months prior to that default to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty were immaterial.

Trustmark has utilized loans 90 days or more past due to define payment default in determining modified loans that have subsequently defaulted. If Trustmark determines that a modified loan (or a portion of a loan) has subsequently been deemed uncollectible, the loan (or a portion of the loan) is charged off against the ACL, LHFI.

Trustmark closely monitors the performance of loans that are modified to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty to understand the effectiveness of its modification efforts. The following tables provide details of the performance of such LHFI that have been modified during the periods presented ($ in thousands):

A loan is collateral dependent when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and repayment of the loan is expected to be provided substantially through the sale of the collateral. The following provides a qualitative description by class of loan of the collateral that secures Trustmark’s collateral-dependent LHFI:

• Loans secured by real estate – Loans within these loan classes are secured by liens on real estate properties. There have been no significant changes to the collateral that secures these financial assets during the period.

• Other loans secured by real estate – Loans within these loan classes are secured by liens on real estate properties. There have been no significant changes to the collateral that secures these financial assets during the period. 17


• Commercial and industrial loans – Loans within this loan class are primarily secured by inventory, accounts receivables, equipment and other non-real estate collateral. There have been no significant changes to the collateral that secures these financial assets during the period.

• State and other political subdivision loans – Loans within this loan class are secured by liens on real estate properties or other non-real estate collateral. There have been no significant changes to the collateral that secures these financial assets during the period.

• Other commercial loans – Loans within this loan class are secured by non-real estate collateral. There have been no significant changes to the collateral that secures these financial assets during the period.

Credit Quality Indicators

Trustmark’s LHFI portfolio credit quality indicators focus on six key quality ratios that are compared against bank tolerances. The loan indicators are total classified outstanding, total criticized outstanding, nonperforming loans, nonperforming assets, delinquencies and net loan losses. Due to the homogeneous nature of consumer loans, Trustmark does not assign a formal internal risk rating to each credit and therefore the criticized and classified measures are primarily composed of commercial loans.

In addition to monitoring portfolio credit quality indicators, Trustmark also measures how effectively the lending process is being managed and risks are being identified. As part of an ongoing monitoring process, Trustmark grades the commercial portfolio segment as it relates to credit file completion and financial statement exceptions, underwriting, collateral documentation and compliance with law as shown below:

• Credit File Completeness and Financial Statement Exceptions – evaluates the quality and condition of credit files in terms of content and completeness and focuses on efforts to obtain and document sufficient information to determine the quality and status of credits. Also included is an evaluation of the systems/procedures used to ensure compliance with policy.

• Underwriting – evaluates whether credits are adequately analyzed, appropriately structured and properly approved within loan policy requirements. A properly approved credit is approved by an adequate authority in a timely manner with all conditions of approval fulfilled. Total policy exceptions measure the level of underwriting and other policy exceptions within a portfolio segment.

• Collateral Documentation – focuses on the adequacy of documentation to perfect Trustmark’s collateral position and substantiate collateral value. Collateral exceptions measure the level of documentation exceptions within a portfolio segment. Collateral exceptions occur when certain collateral documentation is either not present or not current.

• Compliance with Law – focuses on underwriting, documentation, approval and reporting in compliance with banking laws and regulations. Primary emphasis is directed to the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989 (FIRREA), Regulation O requirements and regulations governing appraisals.

Commercial Credits

Trustmark has established a loan grading system that consists of ten individual credit risk grades (risk ratings) that encompass a range from loans where the expectation of loss is negligible to loans where loss has been established. The model is based on the risk of default for an individual credit and establishes certain criteria to delineate the level of risk across the ten unique credit risk grades. Credit risk grade definitions are as follows:

• Risk Rate (RR) 1 through RR 6 – Grades one through six represent groups of loans that are not subject to criticism as defined in regulatory guidance. Loans in these groups exhibit characteristics that represent low to moderate risk measured by using a variety of credit risk criteria such as cash flow coverage, debt service coverage, balance sheet leverage, liquidity, management experience, industry position, prevailing economic conditions, support from secondary sources of repayment and other credit factors that may be relevant to a specific loan. In general, these loans are supported by properly margined collateral and guarantees of principal parties.

• Other Assets Especially Mentioned (Special Mention) (RR 7) – a loan that has a potential weakness that if not corrected will lead to a more severe rating. This rating is for credits that are currently protected but potentially weak because of an adverse feature or condition that if not corrected will lead to a further downgrade.

• Substandard (RR 8) – a loan that has at least one identified weakness that is well defined. This rating is for credits where the primary sources of repayment are not viable at the time of evaluation or where either the capital or collateral is not adequate to support the loan and the secondary means of repayment do not provide a sufficient level of support to offset the identified weakness. Loss potential exists in the aggregate amount of substandard loans but does not necessarily exist in individual loans. 18


• Doubtful (RR 9) – a loan with an identified weakness that does not have a valid secondary source of repayment. Generally, these credits have an impaired primary source of repayment and secondary sources are not sufficient to prevent a loss in the credit. The exact amount of the loss has not been determined at this time.

• Loss (RR 10) – a loan or a portion of a loan that is deemed to be uncollectible.

By definition, credit risk grades special mention (RR 7), substandard (RR 8), doubtful (RR 9) and loss (RR 10) are criticized loans while substandard (RR 8), doubtful (RR 9) and loss (RR 10) are classified loans. These definitions are standardized by the bank regulatory agencies and are generally equally applied to each individual lending institution. The remaining credit risk grades are considered pass credits and are solely defined by Trustmark.

To enhance this process, Trustmark has determined that certain loans will be individually assessed, and a formal analysis will be performed and based upon the analysis the loan will be written down to the net realizable value. Trustmark will individually assess and remove loans from the pool in the following circumstances:

• Commercial nonaccrual loans with total exposure of $500 thousand (excluding those portions of the debt that are government guaranteed or are secured by Trustmark deposits or marketable securities) or more.

• Any loan that is believed to not share similar risk characteristics with the rest of the pool will be individually assessed. Otherwise, the loan will be left within the pool based on the results of the assessment.

• Commercial accruing loans deemed to be a modified loan to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty with total exposure of $500 thousand (excluding those portions of the debt that are government guaranteed or are secured by Trustmark deposits or marketable securities) or more. If the loan is believed to not share similar risk characteristics with the rest of the loan pool, the loan will be individually assessed. Otherwise, the loan will be left within the pool and monitored on an ongoing basis.

Each loan officer assesses the appropriateness of the internal risk rating assigned to their credits on an ongoing basis. Trustmark’s Asset Review area conducts independent credit quality reviews of the majority of Trustmark’s commercial loan portfolio both on the underlying credit quality of each individual loan class as well as the adherence to Trustmark’s loan policy and the loan administration process.

In addition to the ongoing internal risk rate monitoring described above, Trustmark’s Credit Quality Review Committee meets monthly and performs a review of all loans of $100 thousand or more that are either delinquent 30 days or more or on nonaccrual. This review includes recommendations regarding risk ratings, accrual status, charge-offs and appropriate servicing officer as well as evaluation of problem credits for determination of modified status. Quarterly, the Credit Quality Review Committee reviews and modifies continuous action plans for all credits risk rated seven or worse for relationships of $100 thousand or more.

In addition, periodic reviews of significant development, construction, multi-family, nonowner-occupied and other commercial credits are performed. These reviews assess each particular project with respect to location, project valuations, progress of completion, leasing status, current financial information, rents, operating expenses, cash flow, adherence to budget and projections and other information that is pertinent to the particular type of credit as applicable. Summary results are reviewed by Senior and Regional Credit Officers in addition to the Chief Credit Officer with a determination made as to the appropriateness of existing risk ratings and accrual status.

Consumer Credits

The Retail Credit Review Committee, Management Credit Policy Committee and the Enterprise Risk Committee review the volume and percentage of consumer loan delinquencies and losses to monitor the overall quality of the consumer portfolio.

Trustmark monitors the levels and severity of past due consumer LHFI on a daily basis through its collection activities. A detailed assessment of consumer LHFI delinquencies is performed monthly at both a product and market level. 19

Past Due LHFS

LHFS past due 90 days or more totaled $56.5 million and $51.2 million at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. LHFS past due 90 days or more are serviced loans eligible for repurchase, which are fully guaranteed by the Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA). GNMA optional repurchase programs allow financial institutions to buy back individual delinquent mortgage loans that meet certain criteria from the securitized loan pool for which the institution provides servicing. At the servicer’s option and without GNMA’s prior authorization, the servicer may repurchase such a delinquent loan for an amount equal to 100% of the remaining principal balance of the loan. This buy-back option is considered a conditional option until the delinquency criteria are met, at which time the option becomes unconditional. When Trustmark is deemed to have regained effective control over these loans under the unconditional buy-back option, the loans can no longer be reported as sold and must be brought back onto the balance sheet as loans held for sale, regardless of whether Trustmark intends to exercise the buy-back option. These loans are reported as held for sale with the offsetting liability being reported as short-term borrowings.

Trustmark did not exercise its buy-back option on any delinquent loans serviced for GNMA during the first three months of 2024 or 2023.

ACL on LHFI

Trustmark’s ACL methodology for LHFI is based upon guidance within the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Subtopic 326-20 as well as applicable regulatory guidance. The ACL is a valuation account that is deducted from the loans’ amortized cost basis to present the net amount expected to be collected on the loans. Credit quality within the LHFI portfolio is continuously monitored by Management and is reflected within the ACL for LHFI. The ACL is an estimate of expected losses inherent within Trustmark’s existing LHFI portfolio. The ACL for LHFI is adjusted through the PCL, LHFI and reduced by the charge off of loan amounts, net of recoveries.

The methodology for estimating the amount of expected credit losses reported in the ACL has two basic components: a collective, or pooled, component for estimated expected credit losses for pools of loans that share similar risk characteristics, and an asset-specific 27


component involving individual loans that do not share risk characteristics with other loans and the measurement of expected credit losses for such individual loans. In estimating the ACL for the collective component, loans are segregated into loan pools based on loan product types and similar risk characteristics.

The loans secured by real estate and other loans secured by real estate portfolio segments include loans for both commercial and residential properties. The underwriting process for these loans includes analysis of the financial position and strength of both the borrower and guarantor, experience with similar projects in the past, market demand and prospects for successful completion of the proposed project within the established budget and schedule, values of underlying collateral, availability of permanent financing, maximum loan-to-value ratios, minimum equity requirements, acceptable amortization periods and minimum debt service coverage requirements, based on property type. The borrower’s financial strength and capacity to repay their obligations remain the primary focus of underwriting. Financial strength is evaluated based upon analytical tools that consider historical and projected cash flows and performance in addition to analysis of the proposed project for income-producing properties. Additional support offered by guarantors is also considered. Ultimate repayment of these loans is sensitive to interest rate changes, general economic conditions, liquidity and availability of long-term financing.

The commercial and industrial LHFI portfolio segment includes loans within Trustmark’s geographic markets made to many types of businesses for various purposes, such as short-term working capital loans that are usually secured by accounts receivable and inventory and term financing for equipment and fixed asset purchases that are secured by those assets. Trustmark’s credit underwriting process for commercial and industrial loans includes analysis of historical and projected cash flows and performance, evaluation of financial strength of both borrowers and guarantors as reflected in current and detailed financial information and evaluation of underlying collateral to support the credit.

The consumer LHFI portfolio segment is comprised of loans that are centrally underwritten based on the borrower's credit bureau score as well as an evaluation of the borrower’s repayment capacity, credit, and collateral. Property appraisals are obtained to assist in evaluating collateral. Loan-to-value and debt-to-income ratios, loan amount, and lien position are also considered in assessing whether to originate a loan. These borrowers are particularly susceptible to downturns in economic trends such as conditions that negatively affect housing prices and demand and levels of unemployment.

The state and other political subdivision LHFI and the other commercial LHFI and leases portfolio segments primarily consist of loans to non-depository financial institutions, such as mortgage companies, finance companies and other financial intermediaries, loans to state and political subdivisions, and loans to non-profit and charitable organizations. These loans are underwritten based on the specific nature or purpose of the loan and underlying collateral with special consideration given to the specific source of repayment for the loan. The lease segment primarily consists of commercial equipment finance leases. Trustmark’s credit underwriting process for equipment finance leases includes analysis of historical and projected cash flows and performance, evaluation of financial strength of both borrowers and guarantors as reflected in current and detailed financial information and evaluation of underlying collateral to support the credit.

During the first quarter of 2024 as part of Trustmark's ongoing model monitoring procedures the annual loss driver analysis was performed. The analysis resulted in changes in the loss drivers for all discounted cash-flow models along with changes in the loss drivers for the equipment and finance loans and leases model. These changes were a result of updating Trustmark's peer group and incorporating data through 2022 which led to more intuitive loss drivers. All models were validated by a third party before implementation. 28

In general, Trustmark utilizes a DCF method to estimate the quantitative portion of the ACL for loan pools. The DCF model consists of two key components, a loss driver analysis (LDA) and a cash flow analysis. For loan pools utilizing the DCF methodology, multiple assumptions are in place, depending on the loan pool. A reasonable and supportable forecast is utilized for each loan pool by developing a LDA for each loan class. The LDA uses charge off data from Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC) reports to construct a periodic default rate (PDR). The PDR is decomposed into a PD. Regressions are run using the data for various macroeconomic variables in order to determine which ones correlate to Trustmark’s losses. These variables are then incorporated into the application to calculate a quarterly PD using a third-party baseline forecast. In addition to the PD, a LGD is derived using a method referred to as Frye Jacobs. The Frye Jacobs method is a mathematical formula that traces the relationship between LGD and PD over time and projects the LGD based on the levels of PD forecasts. This model approach is applicable to all pools within the construction, land development and other land, other secured by 1-4 family residential properties, secured by nonfarm, nonresidential properties and other real estate secured loan classes as well as consumer loans and other commercial loans.

During 2022, Management elected to incorporate a methodology change related to the other construction pool. Components of this change include management utilizing an alternative LDA to support the PD and LGD assumptions necessary to apply a DCF methodology to the other construction pool. Fundamentally, this approach utilizes publicly reported default balances and leverages a generalized linear model (GLM) framework to estimate PD. Taken together, these differences allow for results to be scaled to be specific and directly applicable to the other construction segment. LGD is assumed to be a through-the-cycle constant based on the actual performance of Trustmark’s other construction segment. These assumptions are then input into the DCF model and used in conjunction with prepayment data to calculate the cash flows at the individual loan level. Previously, the other construction pool used the weighted average remaining maturity (WARM) method. Management believes this change is commensurate with the level of risk in the pool.

For the commercial and industrial loans related pools, Trustmark uses its own PD and LGD data, instead of the macroeconomic variables and the Frye Jacobs method described above, to calculate the PD and LGD as there were no defensible macroeconomic variables that correlated to Trustmark’s losses. Trustmark utilizes a third-party Bond Default Study to derive the PD and LGD for the obligations of state and political subdivisions pool. Due to the lack of losses within this pool, no defensible macroeconomic factors were identified to correlate.

The PD and LGD measures are used in conjunction with prepayment data as inputs into the DCF model to calculate the cash flows at the individual loan level. Contractual cash flows based on loan terms are adjusted for PD, LGD and prepayments to derive loss cash flows. These loss cash flows are discounted by the loan’s coupon rate to arrive at the discounted cash flow based quantitative loss. The prepayment studies are updated quarterly by a third-party for each applicable pool.

An alternate method of estimating the ACL is used for certain loan pools due to specific characteristics of these loans. For the non-DCF pools, specifically, those using the WARM method, the remaining life is incorporated into the ACL quantitative calculation.

Trustmark determined that reasonable and supportable forecasts could be made for a twelve-month period for all of its loan pools. To the extent the lives of the loans in the LHFI portfolio extend beyond this forecast period, Trustmark uses a reversion period of four quarters and reverts to the historical mean on a straight-line basis over the remaining life of the loans. The econometric models currently in production reflect segment or pool level sensitivities of PD to changes in macroeconomic variables. By measuring the relationship between defaults and changes in the economy, the quantitative reserve incorporates reasonable and supportable forecasts of future conditions that will affect the value of Trustmark’s assets, as required by FASB ASC Topic 326. Under stable forecasts, these linear regressions will reasonably predict a pool’s PD. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the macroeconomic variables used for reasonable and supportable forecasting changed rapidly. At the macroeconomic levels experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic, it was not clear that the models in production would produce reasonably representative results since the models were originally estimated using data beginning in 2004 through 2019. During this period, a traditional, albeit severe, economic recession occurred. Thus, econometric models are sensitive to similar future levels of PD.

In order to prevent the econometric models from extrapolating beyond reasonable boundaries of their input variables, Trustmark chose to establish an upper and lower limit process when applying the periodic forecasts. In this way, Management will not rely upon unobserved and untested relationships in the setting of the quantitative reserve. This approach applies to all input variables, including: Southern Unemployment, National Unemployment, National Gross Domestic Product (GDP), National Home Price Index (HPI), National Commercial Real Estate (CRE) Price Index and the BBB 7-10 Year US Corporate Bond Index (CBI). The upper and lower limits are based on the distribution of the macroeconomic variable by selecting extreme percentiles at the upper and lower limits of the distribution, the 1stand 99th percentiles, respectively. These upper and lower limits are then used to calculate the PD for the forecast time period in which the forecasted values are outside of the upper and lower limit range. Due to multiple periods having a PD or LGD at or near zero as a result of the improving macroeconomic forecasts, Management implemented PD and LGD floors to account for the risk associated with each portfolio. The PD and LGD floors are based on Trustmark’s historical loss experience and applied at a portfolio level. 32


Qualitative factors used in the ACL methodology include the following:

• Lending policies and procedures

• Economic conditions and concentrations of credit

• Nature and volume of the portfolio

• Performance trends

• External factors

While all these factors are incorporated into the overall methodology, only three are currently considered active at March 31, 2024: (i) economic conditions and concentrations of credit, (ii) nature and volume of the portfolio and (iii) performance trends.

Two of Trustmark’s largest loan classes are the loans secured by nonfarm, nonresidential properties and the loans secured by other real estate. Trustmark elected to create a qualitative factor specifically for these loan classes which addresses changes in the economic conditions of metropolitan areas and applies additional pool level reserves. This qualitative factor is based on third-party market data and forecast trends and is updated quarterly as information is available, by market and by loan pool.

Trustmark's current quantitative methodologies do not completely incorporate changes in credit quality. As a result, Trustmark utilizes the performance trends qualitative factor. This factor is based on migration analyses, that allocates additional ACL to non-pass/delinquent loans within each pool. In this way, Management believes the ACL will directly reflect changes in risk, based on the performance of the loans within a pool, whether declining or improving.

The performance trends qualitative factor is estimated by properly segmenting loan pools into risk levels by risk rating for commercial credits and delinquency status for consumer credits. A migration analysis is then performed quarterly using a third-party software and the results for each risk level are compiled to calculate the historical PD average for each loan portfolio based on risk levels. This average historical PD rate is updated annually. For the mortgage portfolio, Trustmark uses an internal report to incorporate a roll rate method for the calculation of the PD rate. In addition to the PD rate for each portfolio, Management incorporates the quantitative rate and the k value derived from the Frye-Jacobs method to calculate a loss estimate that includes both PD and LGD. The quantitative rate is used to eliminate any additional reserve that the quantitative reserve already includes. Finally, the loss estimate rate is then applied to the total balances for each risk level for each portfolio to calculate a qualitative reserve.

During 2022, Management elected to activate the nature and volume of the portfolio qualitative factor as a result of a sub-pool of the secured by 1-4 family residential properties growing to a significant size along with the underlying nature being different as well. The nature and volume of the portfolio qualitative factor utilizes a WARM methodology that uses industry data for the assumptions to support the qualitative adjustment. The industry data is used to compile a PD based on credit score ranges along with using the industry data to compile an LGD. The sub-pool of credits is then aggregated into the appropriate credit score bands in which a weighted average loss rate is calculated based on the PD and LGD for each credit score range. This weighted average loss rate is then applied to the expected balance for the sub-segment of credits. This total is then used as the qualitative reserve adjustment.

The external factors qualitative factor is Management’s best judgment on the loan or pool level impact of all factors that affect the portfolio that are not accounted for using any other part of the ACL methodology (e.g., natural disasters, changes in legislation, impacts due to technology and pandemics). Trustmark's External Factor – Pandemic ensures reserve adequacy for collectively evaluated loans most likely to be impacted by the unique economic and behavioral conditions created by the COVID-19 pandemic. Additional qualitative reserves are derived based on two principles. The first is the disconnect of economic factors to Trustmark’s modeled PD (derived from the econometric models underpinning the quantitative pooled reserves). During the pandemic, extraordinary measures by the federal government were made available to consumers and businesses, including COVID-19 loan payment concessions, direct transfer payments to households, tax deferrals, and reduced interest rates, among others. These government interventions may have extended the lag between economic conditions and default, relative to what was captured in the model development data. Because Trustmark’s econometric PD models rely on the observed relationship from the economic downturn from 2007 to 2009 in both timing and severity, Management did not expect the models to reflect these conditions. For example, while the models would predict contemporaneous unemployment peaks and loan defaults, this might not have occurred when borrowers could request payment deferrals. Thus, for the affected population, economic conditions were not fully considered as a part of Trustmark’s quantitative reserve. The second principle is the change in risk that is identified by rating changes. As a part of Trustmark’s credit review process, loans in the affected population were given more frequent screening to ensure accurate ratings were maintained through this dynamic period. Trustmark’s quantitative reserve did not directly address changes in ratings, thus a migration qualitative factor was designed to work in concert with the quantitative reserve.

33


As discussed above, the disconnect of economic factors means that changes in rating caused by deteriorating and weak economic conditions as a result of the pandemic were not being captured in the quantitative reserve. During 2020, due to unforeseen pandemic conditions that varied from Management’s expectations, additional reserves were further dimensioned in order to appropriately reflect the risk within the portfolio related to the COVID-19 pandemic. In an effort to ensure the External Factor-Pandemic qualitative factor was reasonable and supportable, historical Trustmark loss data was leveraged to construct a framework that was quantitative in nature. To dimension the additional reserve, Management used the sensitivity of the quantitative commercial loan reserve to changes in macroeconomic conditions to apply to loans rated acceptable or better (RR 1-4). In addition, to account for the known changes in risk, a weighted average of the commercial loan portfolio loss rate, derived from the performance trends qualitative factor, was used to dimension additional reserves for downgraded credits. Loans rated acceptable with risk (RR 5) or watch (RR 6) received the additional reserves based on the average of the macroeconomic conditions and weighted-average of the commercial loan portfolio loss rate while the loans rated special mention (RR 7) and substandard (RR 8) received additional reserves based on the weighted-average described above. During 2022, Management noted that all pass rated loans (RR 5 & RR 6) related to the External Factor-Pandemic qualitative factor either did not experience significant stress related to the pandemic or had since recovered and did not expect future stresses attributed to the pandemic that could affect these loans. As a result, Management decided to accelerate the release of the additional pandemic reserves on all pass rated loans as a result of pandemic conditions resolving. During the fourth quarter of 2023, Management decided to resolve the External Factor-Pandemic qualitative factor as a result of the remaining loan balances that were identified as COVID affected loans being immaterial from both a reserve and balance perspective. The remaining loans were incorporated back into the performance qualitative factor as a result of this resolution. Further, due to this resolution there is no longer any active External Factor as of December 31, 2023.

The PCL, LHFI for the secured by nonfarm, nonresidential properties and other real estate secured portfolios for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was primarily due to changes in the macroeconomic forecast associated with these specific loss driver models as a result of the loss driver update coupled with loan growth. The PCL, LHFI for the other construction portfolio for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was also primarily due to changes in the macroeconomic forecast associated with this specific loss driver model as a result of the loss driver update coupled with loan growth and net adjustments to the qualitative factors due to credit migration. The PCL, 35


LHFI for the commercial and industrial portfolio for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was primarily due to net adjustments to the qualitative factors due to credit migration.

The negative PCL, LHFI for the construction, land development and other land, other secured by 1-4 family residential properties, and other commercial loans and leases portfolios for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was primarily due to changes in the macroeconomic forecast associated with these specific loss driver models as a result of the loss driver update for these loan portfolios. The negative PCL, LHFI for the secured by 1-4 family residential properties portfolio for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was primarily due to adjustments to the Nature and Volume of Portfolio qualitative factor.

MSR

The activity in the MSR is detailed in the table below for the periods presented ($ in thousands):

Three Months Ended March 31,
2024 2023
Balance at beginning of period $ 131,870 $ 129,677
Origination of servicing assets 2,977 2,646
Change in fair value:
Due to market changes 5,123 (3,972 )
Due to run-off (1,926 ) (1,145 )
Balance at end of period $ 138,044 $ 127,206

Trustmark determines the fair value of the MSR using a valuation model administered by a third party that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income. Trustmark considers the conditional prepayment rate (CPR), which is an estimated loan prepayment rate that uses historical prepayment rates for previous loans similar to the loans being evaluated, the float rate, which is the interest rate earned on escrow balances, and the discount rate as some of the primary assumptions used in determining the fair value of the MSR. An increase in either the CPR or discount rate assumption will result in a decrease in the fair value of the MSR, while a decrease in either assumption will result in an increase in the fair value of the MSR. An increase in the float rate will result in an increase in the fair value of the MSR, while a decrease in the float rate will result in a decrease in the fair value of the MSR. At both March 31, 2024 and 2023, the fair value of the MSR included an assumed average prepayment speed of 8 CPR and an average discount rate of 10.08%. 36


Mortgage Loans Serviced/Sold

During the first three months of 2024 and 2023, Trustmark sold $258.3 million and $213.8 million, respectively, of residential mortgage loans. Gains on these sales were recorded as noninterest income in mortgage banking, net and totaled $5.0 million for the first three months of 2024 compared to $3.8 million for the first three months of 2023.

The table below details the mortgage loans sold and serviced for others at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 ($ in thousands):

March 31, 2024 December 31, 2023
Federal National Mortgage Association $ 4,831,183 $ 4,826,028
Government National Mortgage Association 3,557,236 3,510,983
Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation 137,725 112,352
Other 27,090 28,012
Total mortgage loans sold and serviced for others $ 8,553,234 $ 8,477,375

Trustmark is subject to losses in its loan servicing portfolio due to loan foreclosures. Trustmark has obligations to either repurchase the outstanding principal balance of a loan or make the purchaser whole for the economic benefits of a loan if it is determined that the loan sold was in violation of representations or warranties made by Trustmark at the time of the sale, herein referred to as mortgage loan servicing putback expenses. Such representations and warranties typically include those made regarding loans that had missing or insufficient file documentation, loans that do not meet investor guidelines, loans in which the appraisal does not support the value and/or loans obtained through fraud by the borrowers or other third parties. Generally, putback requests may be made until the loan is paid in full. However, mortgage loans delivered to Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA) and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC) on or after January 1, 2013 are subject to the Representations and Warranties Framework, which provides certain instances in which FNMA and FHLMC will not exercise their remedies, including a putback request, for breaches of certain selling representations and warranties, such as payment history and quality control review.

When a putback request is received, Trustmark evaluates the request and takes appropriate actions based on the nature of the request. Trustmark is required by FNMA and FHLMC to provide a response to putback requests within 60 days of the date of receipt. The total mortgage loan servicing putback expenses are included in other expense. At both March 31, 2024 and 2023, Trustmark had a reserve for mortgage loan servicing putback expenses of $500 thousand.

There is inherent uncertainty in reasonably estimating the requirement for reserves against potential future mortgage loan servicing putback expenses. Future putback expenses are dependent on many subjective factors, including the review procedures of the purchasers and the potential refinance activity on loans sold with servicing released and the subsequent consequences under the representations and warranties. Trustmark believes that it has appropriately reserved for potential mortgage loan servicing putback requests.

Note 8 – Securities Sold Under Repurchase Agreements

Trustmark utilizes securities sold under repurchase agreements as a source of borrowing in connection with overnight repurchase agreements offered to commercial deposit customers by using its unencumbered investment securities as collateral. Trustmark accounts for its securities sold under repurchase agreements as secured borrowings in accordance with FASB ASC Subtopic 860-30, “Transfers and Servicing – Secured Borrowing and Collateral.” Securities sold under repurchase agreements are stated at the amount of cash received in connection with the transaction. Trustmark monitors collateral levels on a continual basis and may be required to provide additional collateral based on the fair value of the underlying securities. Securities sold under repurchase agreements were secured by securities with a carrying amount of $59.4 million and $61.6 million at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Trustmark’s repurchase agreements are transacted under master repurchase agreements that give Trustmark, in the event of default by the counterparty, the right of offset with the same counterparty. At both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, all repurchase agreements were short-term and consisted primarily of sweep repurchase arrangements, under which excess deposits are “swept” into overnight repurchase agreements with Trustmark. The following table presents the securities sold under repurchase agreements by collateral pledged at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 ($ in thousands):

Note 9 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Trustmark accounts for revenue from contracts with customers in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” which provides that revenue be recognized in a manner that depicts the transfer of goods or services to a customer in an amount that reflects the consideration Trustmark expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized either over time in a manner that depicts Trustmark’s performance, or at a point in time when control of the goods or services are transferred to the customer. Trustmark’s noninterest income, excluding all of mortgage banking, net and securities gains (losses), net and portions of bank card and other fees and other income, are considered within the scope of FASB ASC Topic 606. Gains or losses on the sale of other real estate, which are included in Trustmark’s noninterest expense as other real estate expense, are also within the scope of FASB ASC Topic 606.

Trustmark records a gain or loss from the sale of other real estate when control of the property transfers to the buyer. Trustmark records the gain or loss from the sale of other real estate in noninterest expense as other, net. Other real estate sales for the three months ended March 31, 2024 resulted in a net loss of $55 thousand compared to a net loss of $78 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2023. 40

Note 10 – Defined Benefit and Other Postretirement Benefits

Qualified Pension Plan

Trustmark maintains a noncontributory tax-qualified defined benefit pension plan titled the Trustmark Corporation Pension Plan for Certain Employees of Acquired Financial Institutions (the Continuing Plan) to satisfy commitments made by Trustmark to associates covered through plans obtained in acquisitions.

The following table presents information regarding the net periodic benefit cost for the Continuing Plan for the periods presented ($ in thousands):

For the plan year ending December 31, 2024, Trustmark’s minimum required contribution to the Continuing Plan is $132 thousand; however, Management and the Board of Directors of Trustmark will monitor the Continuing Plan throughout 2024 to determine any additional funding requirements by the plan’s measurement date, which is December 31.

Supplemental Retirement Plans

Trustmark maintains a nonqualified supplemental retirement plan covering key executive officers and senior officers as well as directors who have elected to defer fees. The plan provides for retirement and/or death benefits based on a participant’s covered salary or deferred fees. Although plan benefits may be paid from Trustmark’s general assets, Trustmark has purchased life insurance contracts on the participants covered under the plan, which may be used to fund future benefit payments under the plan. The annual measurement date for the plan is December 31. As a result of mergers prior to 2014, Trustmark became the administrator of nonqualified supplemental retirement plans, for which the plan benefits were frozen prior to the merger date.

The following table presents information regarding the net periodic benefit cost for Trustmark’s nonqualified supplemental retirement plans for the periods presented ($ in thousands):

Note 11 – Stock and Incentive Compensation

Trustmark has granted restricted stock units subject to the provisions of the Stock and Incentive Compensation Plan (the Stock Plan). Current outstanding and future grants of restricted stock units are subject to the provisions of the Stock Plan, which is designed to provide flexibility to Trustmark regarding its ability to motivate, attract and retain the services of key associates and directors. The Stock Plan also allows Trustmark to grant nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance units to key associates and directors.

Restricted Stock Grants

Performance Units

Trustmark’s performance units vest over three years and are granted to Trustmark’s executive and senior management teams. Performance units granted vest based on performance goals of return on average tangible equity and total shareholder return. Performance units are valued utilizing a Monte Carlo simulation model to estimate fair value of the units at the grant date. The Monte Carlo simulation was performed by an independent valuation consultant and requires the use of subjective modeling assumptions. These units are recognized using the straight-line method over the requisite service period. These units provide for achievement units if performance measures exceed 100%. The restricted stock agreement for these units provide for dividend privileges, but no voting rights.

Time-Based Units

Trustmark’s time-based units granted to Trustmark’s executive and senior management teams vest over three years. Trustmark’s time-based units granted to members of Trustmark’s Board of Directors vest over one year. Time-based units are valued utilizing the fair value of Trustmark’s stock at the grant date. These units are recognized on the straight-line method over the requisite service period. The restricted stock agreement for these units provide for dividend privileges, but no voting rights.

The following table summarizes the Stock Plan activity for the period presented:

Note 12 – Contingencies

Lending Related

Trustmark makes commitments to extend credit and issues standby and commercial letters of credit (letters of credit) in the normal course of business in order to fulfill the financing needs of its customers. The carrying amount of commitments to extend credit and letters of credit approximates the fair value of such financial instruments.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend money to customers pursuant to certain specified conditions. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses. Because many of these commitments are expected to expire without being fully drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the commitments to extend credit is represented by the contract amount of those instruments. Trustmark applies the same credit policies and standards as it does in the lending process when making these commitments. The collateral obtained is based upon the nature of the transaction and the assessed creditworthiness of the borrower. At March 31, 2024 and 2023, Trustmark had unused commitments to extend credit of $4.792 billion and $5.424 billion, respectively.

Letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by Trustmark to insure the performance of a customer to a third-party. A financial standby letter of credit irrevocably obligates Trustmark to pay a third-party beneficiary when a customer fails to repay an outstanding loan or debt instrument. A performance standby letter of credit irrevocably obligates Trustmark to pay a third-party beneficiary when a customer fails to perform some contractual, nonfinancial obligation. When issuing letters of credit, Trustmark uses the same policies regarding credit risk and collateral, which are followed in the lending process. At March 31, 2024 and 2023, Trustmark’s maximum exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the customer for letters of credit was $139.5 million and $137.3 million, respectively. These amounts consist primarily of commitments with maturities of less than three years, which have an immaterial carrying value. Trustmark holds collateral to support standby letters of credit when deemed necessary. As of March 31, 2024 and 2023, the fair value of collateral held was $33.1 million and $31.3 million, respectively.

ACL on Off-Balance Sheet Credit Exposures

Trustmark maintains a separate ACL on off-balance sheet credit exposures, including unfunded loan commitments and letters of credit, which is included on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

During the first quarter of 2024, Management decided to implement a performance trends qualitative factor for unfunded commitments. The same assumptions are applied in this calculation that the funded balances utilize with the addition of using the funding rates on the unfunded commitments. The performance trends qualitative factor reserve is then added to the other calculated reserve to get a total reserve for off-balance sheet credit exposures.

Changes in the ACL on off-balance sheet credit exposures were as follows for the periods presented ($ in thousands):

Three Months Ended March 31,
2024 2023
Balance at beginning of period $ 34,057 $ 36,838
PCL, off-balance sheet credit exposures (192 ) (2,242 )
Balance at end of period $ 33,865 $ 34,596

Adjustments to the ACL on off-balance sheet credit exposures are recorded to PCL, off-balance sheet credit exposures. The decrease in the ACL on off-balance sheet credit exposures for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was primarily due to decrease in required reserves as a result of a decrease in unfunded commitments largely offset by an increase in required reserves as a result of implementing the performance trend qualitative reserve factor. The decrease in the ACL on off-balance sheet credit exposures for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was primarily due to decreases in the total reserve rate used in the calculation for off-balance sheet credit 43


exposures coupled with decreases in unfunded balances for the construction, land development and other land and other construction loan segments.

No credit loss estimate is reported for off-balance sheet credit exposures that are unconditionally cancellable by Trustmark or for undrawn amounts under such arrangements that may be drawn prior to the cancellation of the arrangement.

Legal Proceedings

TNB and its subsidiaries are parties to lawsuits and other claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. Some of the lawsuits assert claims related to the lending, collection, servicing, investment, trust and other business activities, and some of the lawsuits allege substantial claims for damages.

In accordance with FASB ASC Subtopic 450-20, “Loss Contingencies,” TNB will establish an accrued liability for any litigation matter if and when such matter presents loss contingencies that are both probable and reasonably estimable. At the present time, TNB believes, based on its evaluation and the advice of legal counsel, that a loss in any currently pending legal proceeding is not probable and a reasonable estimate cannot reasonably be made.

Note 13 – Earnings Per Share (EPS)

The following table reflects weighted-average shares used to calculate basic and diluted EPS for the periods presented (in thousands):

Note 15 – Shareholders’ Equity

Regulatory Capital

Trustmark and TNB are subject to minimum risk-based capital and leverage capital requirements, as described in the section captioned “Capital Adequacy” included in Part I. Item 1. – Business of Trustmark’s 2023 Annual Report, which are administered by the federal bank regulatory agencies. These capital requirements, as defined by federal regulations, involve quantitative and qualitative measures of assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet instruments. Trustmark’s and TNB’s minimum risk-based capital requirements include a capital conservation buffer of 2.50%. Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax, is not included in computing regulatory capital. Trustmark elected the five-year phase-in transition period (through December 31, 2024) related to adopting FASB ASU 2016-13 for regulatory capital purposes. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can result in certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the financial statements of Trustmark and TNB and limit Trustmark’s and TNB’s ability to pay dividends. As of March 31, 2024, Trustmark and TNB exceeded all applicable minimum capital standards. In addition, Trustmark and TNB met applicable regulatory guidelines to be considered well-capitalized at March 31, 2024. To be categorized in this manner, Trustmark and TNB maintained, as applicable, minimum common equity Tier 1 risk-based capital, Tier 1 risk-based capital, total risk-based capital and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the accompanying table, and were not subject to any written agreement, order or capital directive, or prompt corrective action directive issued by their primary federal regulators to meet and maintain a specific capital level for any capital measures. There are no significant 44


conditions or events that have occurred since March 31, 2024, which Management believes have affected Trustmark’s or TNB’s present classification.

The following table provides Trustmark’s and TNB’s actual regulatory capital amounts and ratios under regulatory capital standards in effect at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 ($ in thousands):

Note 16 – Fair Value

Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value

The methodologies Trustmark uses in determining the fair values are based primarily on the use of independent, market-based data to reflect a value that would be reasonably expected upon exchange of the position in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The predominant portion of assets that are stated at fair value are of a nature that can be valued using prices or inputs that are readily observable through a variety of independent data providers. The providers selected by Trustmark for fair valuation data are widely recognized and accepted vendors whose evaluations support the pricing functions of financial institutions, investment and mutual funds, and portfolio managers. Trustmark has documented and evaluated the pricing methodologies used by the vendors and maintains internal processes that regularly test valuations for anomalies.

Trustmark utilizes an independent pricing service to advise it on the carrying value of the securities available for sale portfolio. As part of Trustmark’s procedures, the price provided from the service is evaluated for reasonableness given market changes. When a questionable price exists, Trustmark investigates further to determine if the price is valid. If needed, other market participants may be utilized to determine the correct fair value. Trustmark has also reviewed and confirmed its determinations in thorough discussions with the pricing source regarding their methods of price discovery.

Mortgage loan commitments are valued based on the securities prices of similar collateral, term, rate and delivery for which the loan is eligible to deliver in place of the particular security. Trustmark acquires a broad array of mortgage security prices that are supplied by a market data vendor, which in turn accumulates prices from a broad list of securities dealers. Prices are processed through a mortgage pipeline management system that accumulates and segregates all loan commitment and forward-sale transactions according to the similarity of various characteristics (maturity, term, rate, and collateral). Prices are matched to those positions that are deemed to be an eligible substitute or offset (i.e., “deliverable”) for a corresponding security observed in the marketplace.

Trustmark estimates fair value of the MSR through the use of prevailing market participant assumptions and market participant valuation processes. This valuation is periodically tested and validated against other third-party firm valuations.

Trustmark obtains the fair value of interest rate swaps from a third-party pricing service that uses an industry standard discounted cash flow methodology. In addition, credit valuation adjustments are incorporated in the fair values to account for potential nonperformance risk. In adjusting the fair value of its interest rate swap contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, Trustmark has considered any applicable credit enhancements such as collateral postings, thresholds, mutual puts, and guarantees. In conjunction with the FASB’s fair value measurement guidance, Trustmark made an accounting policy election to measure the credit risk of these derivative financial instruments, which are subject to master netting agreements, on a net basis by counterparty portfolio.

Trustmark has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its interest rate swaps offered to qualified commercial borrowers fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, while the credit valuation adjustments associated with these derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads. Trustmark has assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its interest rate swaps and has determined that the credit valuation adjustment is not significant to the overall valuation of these derivatives. As a result, Trustmark classifies its interest rate swap valuations in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Trustmark also utilizes exchange-traded derivative instruments such as Treasury note futures contracts and option contracts to achieve a fair value return that offsets the changes in fair value of the MSR attributable to interest rates. Fair values of these derivative instruments are determined from quoted prices in active markets for identical assets therefore allowing them to be classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. In addition, Trustmark utilizes derivative instruments such as interest rate lock commitments in its mortgage banking area which lack observable inputs for valuation purposes resulting in their inclusion in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

At this time, Trustmark presents no fair values that are derived through internal modeling. Should positions requiring fair valuation arise that are not relevant to existing methodologies, Trustmark will make every reasonable effort to obtain market participant assumptions, or independent evaluation. 47

Trustmark may be required, from time to time, to measure certain assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with GAAP. Assets at March 31, 2024, which have been measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, include collateral-dependent LHFI. A loan is collateral dependent when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and repayment of the loan is expected to be provided substantially through the sale of the collateral. The expected credit loss for collateral-dependent loans is measured as the difference between the amortized cost basis of the loan and the fair value of the collateral, adjusted for the estimated cost to sell. Fair value estimates for collateral-dependent loans are derived from appraised values based on the current market value or as is value of the collateral, normally from recently received and reviewed appraisals. Current appraisals are ordered on an annual basis based on the inspection date or more often if market conditions necessitate. Appraisals are obtained from state-certified appraisers and are based on certain assumptions, which may include construction or development status and the highest and best use of the property. These appraisals are reviewed by Trustmark’s Appraisal Review Department to ensure they are acceptable, and values are adjusted down for costs associated with asset disposal. At March 31, 2024, Trustmark had outstanding balances of $42.9 million with a related ACL of $12.6 million in collateral-dependent LHFI, compared to outstanding balances of $49.1 million with a related ACL of $12.4 million in collateral-dependent LHFI at December 31, 2023. The collateral-dependent LHFI are classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

Nonfinancial Assets and Liabilities

Certain nonfinancial assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis include foreclosed assets (upon initial recognition or subsequent impairment), nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities measured at fair value in the second step of a goodwill impairment test, and intangible assets and other nonfinancial long-lived assets measured at fair value for impairment assessment.

Other real estate includes assets that have been acquired in satisfaction of debt through foreclosure and is recorded at the fair value less cost to sell (estimated fair value) at the time of foreclosure. Fair value is based on independent appraisals and other relevant factors. In the determination of fair value subsequent to foreclosure, Management also considers other factors or recent developments, such as changes in market conditions from the time of valuation and anticipated sales values considering plans for disposition, which could result in an adjustment to lower the collateral value estimates indicated in the appraisals. Periodic revaluations are classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy since assumptions are used that may not be observable in the market.

Foreclosed assets of $194 thousand were remeasured during the first three months of 2024, requiring write-downs of $34 thousand to reach their current fair values compared to $430 thousand of foreclosed assets that were remeasured during the first three months of 2023, requiring write-downs of $20 thousand.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

FASB ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments,” requires disclosure of the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities, including those financial assets and financial liabilities that are not measured and reported at fair value on a recurring basis or non-recurring basis.

The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of financial instruments at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, are as follows ($ in thousands):

Fair Value Option

Trustmark has elected to account for its mortgage LHFS under the fair value option, with interest income on these mortgage LHFS reported in interest and fees on LHFS and LHFI. The fair value of the mortgage LHFS is determined using quoted prices for a similar asset, adjusted for specific attributes of that loan. The mortgage LHFS are actively managed and monitored and certain market risks of the loans may be mitigated through the use of derivatives. These derivative instruments are carried at fair value with changes in fair value recorded as noninterest income in mortgage banking, net. The changes in the fair value of LHFS are largely offset by changes in the fair value of the derivative instruments. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, a net loss of $1.5 million was recorded as noninterest income in mortgage banking, net for changes in the fair value of LHFS accounted for under the fair value option, compared to a net gain of $944 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Interest and fees on LHFS and LHFI for the three months ended March 31, 2024 included $1.7 million of interest earned on LHFS accounted for under the fair value option, compared to $1.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Election of the fair value option allows Trustmark to reduce the accounting volatility that would otherwise result from the asymmetry created by accounting for the financial instruments at the lower of cost or fair value and the derivatives at fair value. The fair value option election does not apply to GNMA optional repurchase loans which do not meet the requirements under FASB ASC Topic 825 to be accounted for under the fair value option. GNMA optional repurchase loans totaled $77.7 million and $78.8 million at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, and are included in LHFS on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. For additional information regarding GNMA optional repurchase loans, please see the section captioned “Past Due LHFS” included in Note 3 – LHFI and ACL, LHFI.

The following table provides information about the fair value and the contractual principal outstanding of LHFS accounted for under the fair value option at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 ($ in thousands):

Note 17 – Derivative Financial Instruments

Derivatives Designated as Hedging Instruments

During 2022, Trustmark initiated a cash flow hedging program. Trustmark's objectives in initiating this hedging program were to add stability to interest income and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of fixed-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for Trustmark making variable-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. Interest rate floor spreads designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts if interest rates fall below the purchased floor strike rate on the contract and payments of variable-rate amounts if interest rates fall below the sold floor strike rate on the contract. Trustmark uses such derivatives to hedge the variable cash flows associated with existing and anticipated variable-rate loan assets. At March 31, 2024, the aggregate notional value of Trustmark's interest rate swaps and floor spreads designated as cash flow hedges totaled $1.225 billion compared to $1.125 billion at December 31, 2023.

Trustmark records any gains or losses on these cash flow hedges in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Gains and losses on derivatives representing hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized over the life of the hedge on a systematic and rational basis, as documented at hedge inception in accordance with Trustmark’s accounting policy election. The earnings recognition of excluded components totaled $85 thousand and $9 thousand of amortization expense for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and are included in interest and fees on LHFS and LHFI. As interest payments are received on Trustmark's variable-rate assets, amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) are reclassified into interest and fees on LHFS and LHFI in the accompanying consolidated statements of income during the same period. During the next twelve months, Trustmark estimates that $15.5 million will be reclassified as a reduction to interest and fees on LHFS and LHFI. This amount could differ due to changes in interest rates, hedge de-designations or the addition of other hedges. 50


Derivatives not Designated as Hedging Instruments

Trustmark utilizes a portfolio of exchange-traded derivative instruments, such as Treasury note futures contracts and option contracts, to achieve a fair value return that economically hedges changes in the fair value of the MSR attributable to interest rates. These transactions are considered freestanding derivatives that do not otherwise qualify for hedge accounting. The total notional amount of these derivative instruments was $301.0 million at March 31, 2024 compared to $285.0 million at December 31, 2023. Changes in the fair value of these exchange-traded derivative instruments are recorded as noninterest income in mortgage banking, net and are offset by changes in the fair value of the MSR. The impact of this strategy resulted in a net negative ineffectiveness of $1.1 million and $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

As part of Trustmark’s risk management strategy in the mortgage banking area, derivative instruments such as forward sales contracts are utilized. Trustmark’s obligations under forward sales contracts consist of commitments to deliver mortgage loans, originated and/or purchased, in the secondary market at a future date. Changes in the fair value of these derivative instruments are recorded as noninterest income in mortgage banking, net and are offset by changes in the fair value of LHFS. Trustmark’s off-balance sheet obligations under these derivative instruments totaled $128.5 million at March 31, 2024, with a negative valuation adjustment of $208 thousand, compared to $109.5 million, with a negative valuation adjustment of $994 thousand, at December 31, 2023.

Trustmark also utilizes derivative instruments such as interest rate lock commitments in its mortgage banking area. Interest rate lock commitments are residential mortgage loan commitments with customers, which guarantee a specified interest rate for a specified time period. Changes in the fair value of these derivative instruments are recorded as noninterest income in mortgage banking, net and are offset by the changes in the fair value of forward sales contracts. Trustmark’s off-balance sheet obligations under these derivative instruments totaled $88.5 million at March 31, 2024, with a positive valuation adjustment of $1.2 million, compared to $61.9 million, with a positive valuation adjustment of $845 thousand, at December 31, 2023.

Trustmark offers certain derivatives products directly to qualified commercial lending clients seeking to manage their interest rate risk. Trustmark economically hedges interest rate swap transactions executed with commercial lending clients by entering into offsetting interest rate swap transactions with institutional derivatives market participants. Derivatives transactions executed as part of this program are not designated as qualifying hedging relationships and are, therefore, carried at fair value with the change in fair value recorded as noninterest income in bank card and other fees. Because these derivatives have mirror-image contractual terms, in addition to collateral provisions which mitigate the impact of non-performance risk, the changes in fair value are expected to substantially offset. The offsetting interest rate swap transactions are either cleared through the Chicago Mercantile Exchange for clearable transactions or booked directly with institutional derivatives market participants for non-clearable transactions. The Chicago Mercantile Exchange rules legally characterize variation margin collateral payments made or received for centrally cleared interest rate swaps as settlements rather than collateral. As a result, centrally cleared interest rate swaps included in other assets and other liabilities are presented on a net basis in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. At March 31, 2024, Trustmark had interest rate swaps with an aggregate notional amount of $1.470 billion related to this program, compared to $1.500 billion at December 31, 2023.

Credit-risk-related Contingent Features

Trustmark has agreements with its financial institution counterparties that contain provisions where if Trustmark defaults on any of its indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender, then Trustmark could also be declared in default on its derivatives obligations.

At March 31, 2024, there was no termination value of interest rate swaps in a liability position, which includes accrued interest but excludes any adjustment for nonperformance risk, related to these agreements compared to $1.4 million at December 31, 2023. At March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, Trustmark had posted collateral of $40 thousand and $2.0 million, respectively, against its obligations because of negotiated thresholds and minimum transfer amounts under these agreements. If Trustmark had breached any of these triggering provisions at March 31, 2024, it could have been required to settle its obligations under the agreements at the termination value.

Credit risk participation agreements arise when Trustmark contracts with other financial institutions, as a guarantor or beneficiary, to share credit risk associated with certain interest rate swaps. These agreements provide for reimbursement of losses resulting from a third-party default on the underlying swap. At March 31, 2024, Trustmark had entered into seven risk participation agreements as a beneficiary with aggregate notional amounts of $44.9 million compared to six risk participation agreements as a beneficiary with an aggregate notional amount of $40.1 million at December 31, 2023. At March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, Trustmark had entered into thirty-five risk participation agreements as a guarantor with aggregate notional amounts of $304.1 million and $304.7 million, respectively. The aggregate fair values of these risk participation agreements were immaterial at both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. 51

Note 18 – Segment Information

Trustmark’s management reporting structure includes three segments: General Banking, Wealth Management and Insurance. For a complete overview of Trustmark’s operating segments, see Note 20 – Segment Information included in Part II. Item 8. – Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, of Trustmark’s 2023 Annual Report.

The accounting policies of each reportable segment are the same as those of Trustmark except for its internal allocations. Noninterest expenses for back-office operations support are allocated to segments based on estimated uses of those services. Trustmark measures the net interest income of its business segments with a process that assigns cost of funds or earnings credit on a matched-term basis. This process, called “funds transfer pricing”, charges an appropriate cost of funds to assets held by a business unit, or credits the business unit for potential earnings for carrying liabilities. The net of these charges and credits flows through to the General Banking Segment, which contains the management team responsible for determining TNB’s funding and interest rate risk strategies. 53

Note 19 – Accounting Policies Recently Adopted and Pending Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Policies Recently Adopted

Except for the changes detailed below, Trustmark has consistently applied its accounting policies to all periods presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures.” Issued in November 2023, ASU 2023-07 is intended to improve disclosures about a public entity’s reportable segments and address requests from investors and other allocators of capital for additional, more detailed information about a reportable segment’s expenses. The amendments of ASU 2023-07 require a public entity to disclose, on an annual and interim basis, significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (CODM) and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss, and an amount for other segment items by reportable segment and a description of its composition. The other segment items category is the difference between segment revenue less the significant expenses disclosed and each reported measure of segment profit or loss. ASU 2023-07 also requires a public entity to provide all annual disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets currently required under FASB ASC Topic 280 in interim periods. The amendments of ASU 2023-07 clarify that if the CODM uses more than one measure of a segment's profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources, a public entity may report one or more of those additional measures of segment profit. However, at least one of the reported segment profit or loss measures (or the single reported measure if only one is disclosed) should be the measure that is most consistent with the measurement principles used in measuring the corresponding amounts in the public entity's consolidated financial statements. ASU 2023-07 requires a public entity to disclose the title and position of the CODM, together with an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. In addition, ASU 2023-07 requires that a public entity with a single reportable segment provide all the disclosures required by the amendments of ASU 2023-07 and all existing segment disclosures in FASB ASC Topic 280. The amendments of ASU 2023-07 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The amendments in ASU 2023-07 should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented on the financial statements. Upon implementation, the segment expense categories and amounts disclosed in the prior periods should be based on the significant segment expense categories identified and disclosed in the period of adoption. Trustmark has adopted the amendments of ASU 2023-07 related to annual disclosure requirements effective January 1, 2024, and will present any newly required annual disclosures in its Annual Report of Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2024. Trustmark intends to adopt the amendments of ASU 2023-07 related to interim disclosure requirements effective January 1, 2025, and will present any newly required interim disclosures beginning with its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ending March 31, 2025. Adoption of ASU 2023-07 is not expected to have a material impact to Trustmark’s consolidated financial statements or results of operations.

Pending Accounting Pronouncements

ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures.” Issued in December 2023, ASU 2023-09 is intended to improve the disclosures for income taxes to address requests from investors, lenders, creditors and other allocators of capital (collectively, "investors") that use the financial statements to make capital allocation decisions. During the FASB's 2021 agenda consultation process and other stakeholder outreach, investors highlighted that the current system of income tax disclosures does not provide enough information to understand the tax provision for an entity that operates in multiple jurisdictions. Investors currently rely on the rate reconciliation table and other disclosures, including total income taxes paid in the statement of cash flows, to evaluate income tax risks and opportunities. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 will require consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation disclosure as well as disclosure of income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. The amendments of ASU 2023-09 are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, and early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. Trustmark intends to adopt the amendments of ASU 2023-09 effective January 1, 2025, and will include the required disclosures in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2025. Trustmark is currently evaluating the changes to disclosures required by ASU 2023-09; however, adoption of ASU 2023-09 is not expected to have a material impact to Trustmark’s consolidated financial statements or results of operations.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following provides a narrative discussion and analysis of Trustmark Corporation’s (Trustmark) financial condition and results of operations. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the unaudited consolidated financial statements and the supplemental financial data included in Part I. Item 1. – Financial Statements of this report.

Description of Business

Trustmark, a Mississippi business corporation incorporated in 1968, is a bank holding company headquartered in Jackson, Mississippi. Trustmark’s principal subsidiary is Trustmark National Bank (TNB), initially chartered by the State of Mississippi in 1889. At March 31, 2024, TNB had total assets of $18.374 billion, which represented approximately 99.99% of the consolidated assets of Trustmark.

Through TNB and its other subsidiaries, Trustmark operates as a financial services organization providing banking and other financial solutions through offices and 2,712 full-time equivalent associates (measured at March 31, 2024) located in the states of Alabama (including the Georgia Loan Production Office (LPO), which are collectively referred to herein as Trustmark's Alabama market region), Florida (primarily in the northwest or “Panhandle” region of that state, which is referred to herein as Trustmark’s Florida market), Mississippi, Tennessee (in the Memphis and Northern Mississippi regions, which are collectively referred to herein as Trustmark’s Tennessee market), and Texas (primarily in Houston, which is referred to herein as Trustmark’s Texas market). Trustmark’s operations are managed along three operating segments: General Banking Segment, Wealth Management Segment and Insurance Segment. See “Executive Overview” below for a description of TNB’s plans to sell its wholly owned subsidiary Fisher Brown Bottrell Insurance, Inc., which comprises the entirety of Trustmark’s Insurance Segment. For a complete overview of Trustmark’s business, see the section captioned “The Corporation” included in Part I. Item 1. – Business of Trustmark’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 (2023 Annual Report).

Executive Overview

Trustmark's financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2024 reflected continued growth in loans held for investment (LHFI), solid credit quality and an increase in noninterest income. Trustmark's capital position remained solid, reflecting the consistent profitability of its diversified financial services businesses. Trustmark remains well-positioned and committed to meeting the banking and financial needs of its customers and the communities it serves, and remains focused on providing support, advice and solutions to meet its customers’ unique needs. Trustmark is committed to managing the franchise for the long term, supporting investments to promote profitable revenue growth, realigning delivery channels to support changing customer preferences as well as reengineering and efficiency opportunities to enhance long-term shareholder value. Trustmark’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.23 per share. The dividend is payable June 15, 2024, to shareholders of record on June 1, 2024.

On April 23, 2024, TNB announced that it had entered into a definitive agreement to sell its wholly owned subsidiary, Fisher Brown Bottrell Insurance, Inc., (FBBI) to Marsh & McLennan Agency LLC (MMA) for $345.0 million in cash. The sale of FBBI, among the five largest bank-affiliated insurance brokerages in the nation and one of the largest agencies in the Southeast, is expected to allow Trustmark to capitalize on the strong valuation premiums in the insurance brokerage sector. The $345.0 million transaction value represents approximately 5.9 times FBBI’s 2023 revenue and 28.0 times net income. The estimated after-tax proceeds of $228.0 million are expected to be used to reposition Trustmark’s balance sheet to increase earnings, elevate profitability and enhance capital. TNB anticipates that the transaction, which is subject to standard closing conditions and regulatory approval, will close by the end of the second quarter of 2024. Upon consummation of this transaction, Trustmark will no longer engage in insurance brokerage activity and will no longer report an Insurance Segment in its periodic and other reports as filed with the SEC.

On April 8, 2024, Visa commenced an initial exchange offer expiring on May 3, 2024, for any and all outstanding shares of Visa Class B-1 common stock (Visa B-1 shares). Holders participating in the exchange offer would receive a combination of Visa Class B-2 common stock (Visa B-2 shares) and Visa Class C common stock (Visa C shares) in exchange for Visa B-1 shares that are validly tendered and accepted for exchange by Visa. TNB has tendered its 38.7 thousand Visa B-1 shares, and that tender is pending Visa’s acceptance. In exchange for each Visa B-1 share that is validly tendered and accepted for exchange by Visa, TNB would receive 50.0% of a newly issued Visa B-2 share and newly issued Visa C shares equivalent in value to 50.0% of a Visa B-1 share. Upon acceptance by Visa of TNB’s tender, the Visa C shares received by TNB would be recognized at fair value, which is expected to result in a realized gain that may be recorded during the second quarter of 2024. The Visa B-2 shares would continue to be held at their nominal carrying value.

Recent Economic and Industry Developments

Economic activity improved slightly during the first quarter of 2024; however, economic concerns remain as a result of the cumulative weight of uncertainty regarding the potential economic impact of geopolitical developments, such as the conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East, inflation, other economic and industry volatility, the 2024 election cycle in the United States, higher energy prices and broader price pressures. Doubts surrounding the near-term direction of global markets and the potential impact on the United States economy are expected to persist for the near term. While Trustmark's customer base is wholly domestic, international economic conditions affect domestic economic conditions, and thus may have an impact upon Trustmark's financial condition or results of operations.

Market interest rates began to rise during 2022 after an extended period at historical lows. Starting in March 2022, the FRB began raising the target federal funds rate for the first time in three years and continued with multiple increases throughout 2022 and the first half of 2023. The FRB has maintained the target federal funds rate at a range of 5.25% to 5.50% since July 2023. In addition, the FRB increased the interest that it pays on reserves multiple times during 2022 and first half of 2023 from 0.10% to 5.40% as of July 2023. The FRB has maintained the rate it pays on reserves at 5.40% since July 2023. As interest rates have increased, so have competitive pressures on the deposit cost of funds. It is not possible to predict the pace and magnitude of changes in interest rates, or the impact rate changes will have on Trustmark's results of operations.

In the April 2024 “Summary of Commentary on Current Economic Conditions by Federal Reserve District,” the twelve Federal Reserve Districts’ reports suggested that during the reporting period (covering the period from February 26, 2024 through April 8, 2024) economic activity expanded slightly. Reports by the twelve Federal Reserve Districts (Districts) noted the following during the reporting period:

• Consumer spending barely increased overall, but reports were quite mixed across Districts and spending categories. Several reports mentioned weakness in discretionary spending, as consumers’ price sensitivity remained elevated. Auto spending was buoyed notably in some Districts by improved inventories and dealer incentives. Tourism activity increased modestly, on average, but reports varied widely. Manufacturing activity declined slightly.

• On average, contacts reported slight increases in nonfinancial services activity. Bank lending was roughly flat overall. Residential construction increased a little, on average, and home sales strengthened in most Districts. In contrast, nonresidential construction was flat, and commercial real estate leasing fell slightly.

• Overall economic expectations for the coming months was generally cautiously optimistic.

• Employment rose at a slight pace overall. Most Districts noted increases in labor supply and in the quality of job applicants; however, many Districts described persistent shortages of qualified applicants for certain positions, including machinists, trades workers, and hospitality workers. Several Districts reported improved retention of employees, and others pointed to staff reductions at some firms. Wages grew at a slight to moderate pace. Multiple Districts said that annual wage growth rates had recently returned to their historical averages. On balance, contacts expected that labor demand and supply would remain relatively stable, with modest further job gains and continued moderation of wage growth back to pre-pandemic levels.

• On average, price increases were modest. Movements in raw materials prices were mixed. Contacts in several Districts reported sharp increases in insurance rates, for both businesses and homeowners. Another frequent comment was that firms’ ability to pass cost increases on to consumers had weakened considerably in recent months, resulting in smaller profit margins. Inflation also caused strain at nonprofit entities, resulting in service reductions in some cases. On balance, contacts expected that inflation would hold steady at a slow pace moving forward; however, contacts in a few Districts—mostly manufacturers—perceived upside risks to near-term inflation in both input prices and output prices.

Reports by the Federal Reserve’s Sixth District, Atlanta (which includes Trustmark’s Alabama, Florida and Mississippi market regions), Eighth District, St. Louis (which includes Trustmark’s Tennessee market region), and Eleventh District, Dallas (which includes Trustmark’s Texas market region), noted similar findings for the reporting period as those discussed above. The Federal Reserve’s Sixth District also noted lending remained relatively flat amid continued contraction in most consumer loan segments, with one notable exception being home equity lines of credit, which have steadily increased in originations and utilization and a minor increase in commercial real estate loan originations, including multifamily. The Federal Reserve's Sixth District also reported the allowance for loan and lease losses continued to increase as economic uncertainty drove banks to adjust reserves, cash balances increased slightly, consistent with broader industry trends, large time deposits experienced continued growth but may be showing early signs of flattening and borrowings declined over the reporting period as banks paid down this more expensive source of funding. The Federal Reserve’s Eleventh District also reported that loan volumes declined, credit standards continued to tighten, loan pricing continued to rise and loan nonperformance rose slightly. The Federal Reserve’s Eleventh District also noted bankers’ outlooks remained mixed with an expectation of an increase in loan demand six months from now but a deterioration in loan performance and overall business activity.

Financial Highlights

Trustmark reported net income of $41.5 million, or basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) of $0.68, in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $50.3 million, or basic and diluted EPS of $0.82, in the first quarter of 2023. Trustmark’s reported performance during the quarter ended March 31, 2024 produced a return on average tangible equity of 12.98%, a return on average assets of 0.89%, an average equity to average assets ratio of 8.98% and a dividend payout ratio of 33.82%, compared to a return on average tangible equity of 18.03%, a return on average assets of 1.10%, an average equity to average assets ratio of 8.24% and a dividend payout ratio of 28.05% during the quarter ended March 31, 2023.

Total revenue, which is defined as net interest income plus noninterest income, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $188.2 million, a decrease of $793 thousand, or 0.4%, when compared to the same time period in 2023. The decrease in total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024, when compared to the same time period in 2023, was the result of a decrease in net interest income largely offset by an increase in noninterest income.

Net interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2024 totaled $132.8 million, a decrease of $4.8 million, or 3.5%, when compared to the same time period in 2023, principally due to an increase in interest on deposits partially offset by an increase in interest and fees on loans held for sale (LHFS) and LHFI and a decline in other interest expense. Interest income totaled $229.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, an increase of $30.9 million, or 15.6%, when compared to the same time period in 2023, principally due to an increase in interest and fees on LHFS and LHFI primarily as a result of the higher interest rate environment and loan growth. Interest expense totaled $97.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, an increase of $35.7 million, or 58.2%, when compared to the same time period in 2023. The increase in interest expense when the three months ended March 31, 2024 is compared to the same time period in 2023 was principally due to an increase in interest on deposits primarily due to rising interest rates, increased competition for deposits and higher average balances, partially offset by a decrease in other interest expense primarily due to a decrease in short-term Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) advances.

Noninterest income for the three months ended March 31, 2024 totaled $55.3 million, an increase of $4.0 million, or 7.7%, when compared to the same time period in 2023, primarily due to increases in mortgage banking, net, insurance commissions and other, net. Mortgage banking, net totaled $8.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, an increase of $1.3 million, or 16.7%, when compared to the same time period in 2023, principally due to an increase in the gain on sales of loans, net. Insurance commissions totaled $15.5 million for the first quarter of 2024, an increase of $1.2 million, or 8.1%, when compared to the same time period in 2023, principally due to increases in commercial property and casualty commissions. Other, net totaled $3.6 million for the first quarter of 2024, an increase of $1.1 million, or 44.5%, when compared to the same time period in 2023, principally due to increases in cash management service fees and other miscellaneous income.

Noninterest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2024 totaled $131.1 million, an increase of $2.8 million, or 2.2%, when compared to the same time period in 2023. The increase in noninterest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was principally due to increases in other expense and salaries and employee benefits. Salaries and employee benefits totaled $75.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, an increase of $1.4 million, or 1.9%, when compared to the same time period in 2023, principally due to increases in salaries expense, primarily due to general merit increases, partially offset by a decline in medical insurance expense. Other expense totaled $17.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, an increase of $2.2 million, or 14.6%, when compared to the same time period in 2023, principally due to an increase in FDIC assessment expense, primarily due to an increase in the assessment rate.

Trustmark’s provision for credit losses (PCL) on LHFI for the three months ended March 31, 2024 totaled $7.7 million, an increase of $4.5 million when compared to the same time period in 2023. The PCL on LHFI for the three months ended March 31, 2024 primarily reflected an increase in required reserves as a result of changes in the macroeconomic forecasts resulting from the annual loss driver analysis performed during the first quarter of 2024 partially offset by a decline in required reserves as a result of updates to the qualitative reserve factors. The PCL on off-balance sheet credit exposures totaled a negative $192 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2024, a decrease in the negative provision of $2.1 million, or 91.4%, when compared to the same time period in 2023. The negative PCL on off-balance sheet credit exposures for the three months ended March 31, 2024, primarily reflected a decrease in required reserves as a result of a decrease in unfunded commitments largely offset by an increase in required reserves as a result of implementing the performance trend qualitative reserve factor. Please see the section captioned “Provision for Credit Losses” for additional information regarding the PCL on LHFI and off-balance sheet credit exposures.

At March 31, 2024, nonperforming assets totaled $106.0 million, a decrease of $904 thousand, or 0.8%, compared to December 31, 2023, reflecting a decrease in nonaccrual LHFI partially offset by an increase in other real estate. Nonaccrual LHFI totaled $98.4 million at March 31, 2024, a decrease of $1.7 million, or 1.7%, relative to December 31, 2023, primarily as a result of the resolution of one large nonaccrual commercial credit in the Texas market region partially offset by one large commercial credit placed on nonaccrual in the Texas market region as well as an increase in mortgage nonaccruals. Other real estate, net totaled $7.6 million at March 31, 2024, an increase of $753 thousand, or 11.0%, when compared to December 31, 2023, principally due to properties foreclosed in the Mississippi market region partially offset by properties sold in the Alabama and Mississippi market regions as well as write-downs of properties in the Texas market region.

LHFI totaled $13.058 billion at March 31, 2024, an increase of $107.4 million, or 0.8%, compared to December 31, 2023. The increase in LHFI during the first three months of 2024 was primarily due to net growth in LHFI secured by real estate partially offset by a decline in state and other political subdivision LHFI. For additional information regarding changes in LHFI and comparative balances by loan category, see the section captioned “LHFI.”

Management has continued its practice of maintaining excess funding capacity to provide Trustmark with adequate liquidity for its ongoing operations. In this regard, Trustmark benefits from its strong deposit base, its investment portfolio and its access to funding from a variety of external funding sources such as upstream federal funds lines, FHLB advances and brokered deposits. See the section captioned “Capital Resources and Liquidity” for further discussion of the components of Trustmark’s excess funding capacity.

Total deposits were $15.339 billion at March 31, 2024, a decrease of $231.2 million, or 1.5%, compared to December 31, 2023. During the first three months of 2024, noninterest-bearing deposits decreased $158.0 million, or 4.9%, as a result of declines in all categories of noninterest-bearing deposits reflecting customers migration into higher-yielding products. Interest-bearing deposits decreased $73.2 million, or 0.6%, during the first three months of 2024, primarily due to declines in public and consumer interest checking accounts and consumer certificates of deposits (CDs), partially offset by growth in business and consumer money market deposit accounts (MMDA).

Federal funds purchased and securities sold under repurchase agreements totaled $393.2 million at March 31, 2024, a decrease of $12.5 million, or 3.1%, compared to December 31, 2023, principally due to a decrease in upstream federal funds purchased. Other borrowings totaled $482.0 million at March 31, 2024, a decrease of $1.2 million, or 0.2%, compared to December 31, 2023, principally due to a decline in GNMA loans eligible for repurchase.

Recent Legislative and Regulatory Developments

Bank Merger Review

On March 21, 2024, the FDIC published proposed revisions to its Statement of Policy on Bank Merger Transactions that may change the way the FDIC reviews bank merger applications. While the Federal Reserve has not issued a similar proposal, Federal Reserve Vice Chair for Supervision Michael Barr has stated that the Federal Reserve is working with the Department of Justice to update guidelines setting forth standards for the review of the competitive impact of a bank merger transaction. These pending regulatory revisions create uncertainty regarding the standards that the agencies may apply to their review of bank mergers and may make it more difficult and/or costly to obtain regulatory approval of a bank merger, or otherwise result in more burdensome conditions in approval orders than the agencies have previously imposed. Additionally, the agencies may begin to apply new standards in practice before they formally finalize changes to their merger policies. As a result, these new standards may limit banking organizations’ ability to grow through an acquisition or make it more costly or less beneficial for them to do so.

For additional information regarding legislation and regulation applicable to Trustmark, see the section captioned “Supervision and Regulation” included in Part I. Item 1. – Business of Trustmark’s 2023 Annual Report.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to capital ratios defined by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and banking regulators, Trustmark utilizes various tangible common equity measures when evaluating capital utilization and adequacy. Tangible common equity, as defined by Trustmark, represents common equity less goodwill and identifiable intangible assets. Trustmark's common equity Tier 1 capital includes common stock, capital surplus and retained earnings, and is reduced by goodwill and other intangible assets, net of associated net deferred tax liabilities as well as disallowed deferred tax assets and threshold deductions as applicable.

Trustmark believes these measures are important because they reflect the level of capital available to withstand unexpected market conditions. Additionally, presentation of these measures allows readers to compare certain aspects of Trustmark’s capitalization to other organizations. These ratios differ from capital measures defined by banking regulators principally in that the numerator excludes shareholders’ equity associated with preferred securities, the nature and extent of which varies across organizations. In Management’s experience, many stock analysts use tangible common equity measures in conjunction with more traditional bank capital ratios to compare capital adequacy of banking organizations with significant amounts of goodwill or other intangible assets, typically stemming from the use of the purchase accounting method in accounting for mergers and acquisitions.

These calculations are intended to complement the capital ratios defined by GAAP and banking regulators. Because GAAP does not include these capital ratio measures, Trustmark believes there are no comparable GAAP financial measures to these tangible common equity ratios. Despite the importance of these measures to Trustmark, there are no standardized definitions for them and, as a result, Trustmark’s calculation methods may not be comparable with those of other organizations. Also, there may be limits in the usefulness of these measures to investors. As a result, Trustmark encourages readers to consider its consolidated financial statements and the notes related thereto in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.

The following table reconciles Trustmark’s calculation of these measures to amounts reported under GAAP for the periods presented ($ in thousands, except per share data):

Results of Operations

Net Interest Income

Net interest income is the principal component of Trustmark’s income stream and represents the difference, or spread, between interest and fee income generated from earning assets and the interest expense paid on deposits and borrowed funds. Fluctuations in interest rates, as well as volume and mix changes in earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, can materially impact net interest income. The net interest margin is computed by dividing fully taxable equivalent (FTE) net interest income by average interest-earning assets and measures how effectively Trustmark utilizes its interest-earning assets in relationship to the interest cost of funding them. The accompanying yield/rate analysis table shows the average balances for all assets and liabilities of Trustmark and the interest income or expense associated with earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The yields and rates have been computed based upon interest income and expense adjusted to a FTE basis using the federal statutory corporate tax rate in effect for each of the periods shown. Loans on nonaccrual have been included in the average loan balances, and interest collected prior to these loans having been placed on nonaccrual has been included in interest income. Loan fees included in interest associated with the average LHFS and LHFI balances were immaterial.

Net interest income-FTE for the three months ended March 31, 2024 decreased $4.9 million, or 3.5%, when compared with the same time period in 2023. The decrease in net interest income-FTE when the three months ended March 31, 2024 is compared to the same time period in 2023 was principally due to an increase in interest on deposits partially offset by an increase in interest and fees on LHFS and LHFI-FTE and a decrease in other interest expense. The net interest margin-FTE for the three months ended March 31, 2024 decreased 18 basis points to 3.21% when compared to the same time period in 2023. The decrease in the net interest margin for the three months ended March 31, 2024 when compared to the same time period in 2023, was principally due to an increase in the cost of interest-bearing deposits partially offset by the increase in the yield on the LHFS and LHFI portfolios.

Average interest-earning assets for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $17.088 billion compared to $16.856 billion for the same time period in 2023, an increase of $231.3 million, or 1.4%. The increase in average interest-earning assets for the three months ended March 31, 2024 when compared to the same time period in 2023, was principally due to an increase in average loans (LHFS and LHFI) partially offset by a decline in average total securities and average other earning assets. Average loans (LHFS and LHFI) increased $639.4 million, or 5.1%, when the three months ended March 31, 2024 is compared to the same time period in 2023, principally due to an increase in the average balance of the LHFI portfolio of $603.6 million, or 4.9%. The increase in the LHFI portfolio when the balances at March 31, 2024 are compared to March 31, 2023 was principally due to net growth in LHFI secured by real estate and other commercial loans and leases, partially offset by a decrease in state and other political subdivision LHFI. Average total securities declined $329.3 million, or 9.0%, when the three months ended March 31, 2024 is compared to the same time period in 2023, principally due to calls, maturities and pay-downs of the loans underlying GSE guaranteed securities. Average other earning assets decreased $76.5 million, or 11.8%, when the three months ended March 31, 2024 is compared to the same time period in 2023, primarily due to decreases in reserves held at the FRBA and investments in FHLB stock.

Interest income-FTE for the three months ended March 31, 2024 totaled $233.2 million, an increase of $30.8 million, or 15.2%, while the yield on total earning assets increased to 5.49% compared to 4.87% for the same time period in 2023. The increase in interest income-FTE for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was primarily due to an increase in interest and fees on LHFS and LHFI-FTE. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, interest and fees on LHFS and LHFI-FTE increased $30.5 million, or 17.0%, while the yield on LHFS and LHFI increased 61 basis points to 6.40% when compared to the same time period in 2023, primarily due to the higher interest rate environment as well as the increase in the average balance of LHFI.

Average interest-bearing liabilities for the three months ended March 31, 2024 totaled $13.376 billion compared to $12.585 billion for the same time period in 2023, an increase of $791.5 million, or 6.3%. The increase in average interest-bearing liabilities when the three months ended March 31, 2024 is compared to the same time period in 2023 was primarily the result of an increase in average interest-bearing deposits partially offset by a decline in average other borrowings. Average interest-bearing deposits for the three months ended March 31, 2024 increased $1.447 billion, or 13.3%, when compared to the same time period in 2023, reflecting growth in average time deposits and average interest-bearing demand deposits, partially offset by declines in savings deposits. Average other borrowings for the three months ended March 31, 2024 decreased $647.2 million, or 49.9%, when compared to the same time period in 2023, principally due to the decrease in outstanding short-term FHLB advances with the FHLB of Dallas as a result of changes in funding needs.

Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2024 totaled $97.0 million, an increase of $35.7 million, or 58.2%, when compared with the same time period in 2023, while the rate on total interest-bearing liabilities increased 94 basis points to 2.92% principally due to an increase in interest on deposits partially offset by a decline in other interest expense. Interest on deposits for the three months ended March 31, 2024 increased $42.8 million while the rate on interest-bearing deposits increased 121 basis points to 2.74% when compared to the same time period in 2023, primarily due to higher interest rates, reflecting the increased competitive pressures on deposits, and increases in average balances of time deposits and MMDA accounts. Other interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2024 decreased $7.9 million, or 50.5%, while the rate on other borrowings decreased to 4.78% compared to 4.87% for the same time period in 2023, primarily due to the decrease in outstanding short-term FHLB advances with the FHLB of Dallas.

Provision for Credit Losses

The PCL, LHFI is the amount necessary to maintain the ACL for LHFI at the amount of expected credit losses inherent within the LHFI portfolio. The amount of PCL and the related ACL for LHFI are based on Trustmark’s ACL methodology. The PCL, LHFI totaled $7.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to $3.2 million for the same time period in 2023. The PCL on LHFI for the three months ended March 31, 2024 primarily reflected an increase in required reserves as a result of changes in the macroeconomic forecasts resulting from the annual loss driver analysis performed during the first quarter of 2024 partially offset by a decline in required reserves as a result of updates to the qualitative reserve factors.

FASB ASC Topic 326 requires Trustmark to estimate expected credit losses for off-balance sheet credit exposures which are not unconditionally cancellable by Trustmark. Trustmark maintains a separate ACL for off-balance sheet credit exposures, including unfunded commitments and letters of credit. Adjustments to the ACL on off-balance sheet credit exposures are recorded to the PCL, off-balance sheet credit exposures. The PCL, off-balance sheet credit exposures totaled a negative $192 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to a negative $2.2 million for the same time period in 2023. The negative PCL on off-balance sheet credit exposures for the three months ended March 31, 2024, primarily reflected a decrease in required reserves as a result of a decrease in unfunded commitments largely offset by an increase in required reserves as a result of implementing the performance trend qualitative reserve factor.

See the section captioned “Allowance for Credit Losses” for information regarding Trustmark’s ACL methodology as well as further analysis of the PCL.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income represented 29.4% of total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to 27.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The following table provides the comparative components of noninterest income for the periods presented ($ in thousands):

All values are in US Dollars.

n/m - percentage changes greater than +/- 100% are not considered meaningful

The increase in mortgage banking, net for the three months ended March 31, 2024 when compared to the same time period in 2023 was principally due to an increase in the gain on sales of loans, net. Mortgage loan production for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $274.0 million, a decrease of $87.1 million, or 24.1%, when compared to the same time period in 2023. Loans serviced for others totaled $8.553 billion at March 31, 2024, compared with $8.152 billion at March 31, 2023, an increase of $401.3 million, or 4.9%.

Representing a significant component of mortgage banking income is the gain on sales of loans, net. The increase in the gain on sales of loans, net when the three months ended March 31, 2024 is compared to the same time period in 2023, was primarily the result of higher profit margins in secondary marketing activities and an increase in the volume of loans sold, partially offset by a decline in the mortgage fair value adjustment. Loan sales totaled $258.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, an increase of $44.5 million, or 20.8%, when compared with the same time period in 2023.

Total other expense $ 16,968 $ 14,811 14.6 %

All values are in US Dollars.

n/m - percentage changes greater than +/- 100% are not considered meaningful

The increase in other expense when the three months ended March 31, 2024 is compared to the same time period in 2023 was principally due to an increase in FDIC assessment expense, primarily due to an increase in the assessment rate. The increase in FDIC assessment rate was principally due to increases in the overall assessment rate and the 2 basis point increase in the initial base assessment rate by the FDIC during the second quarter of 2023 as part of the FDIC's final rule to restore the DIF to required levels.

Results of Segment Operations

For a description of the methodologies used to measure financial performance and financial information by reportable segment, please see Note 18 – Segment Information included in Part I. Item 1. – Financial Statements of this report. The following discusses changes in the results of operations of each reportable segment for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

General Banking

Net interest income for the General Banking Segment decreased $4.6 million, or 3.4%, when the three months ended March 31, 2024 is compared with the same time period in 2023. The decrease in net interest income was principally due to an increase in interest on deposits partially offset by an increase in interest and fees on LHFS and LHFI and a decline in other interest expense. The PCL (LHFI and off-balance sheet credit exposures) for the General Banking Segment for the three months ended March 31, 2024 totaled $7.3 million compared to a PCL of $934 thousand for the same period in 2023, an increase of $6.4 million. For more information on these net interest income and PCL items, please see the sections captioned “Financial Highlights” and “Results of Operations.”

Noninterest income for the General Banking Segment increased $2.0 million, or 7.2%, when the first three months of 2024 is compared to the same time period in 2023, primarily due to the increases in mortgage banking, net and cash management service fees. Noninterest income for the General Banking Segment represented 18.8% of total revenue for this segment for the first three months of 2024 compared to 17.2% for the same time period in 2023. Noninterest income for the General Banking Segment includes service charges on deposit accounts; wealth management; bank card and other fees; mortgage banking, net; other, net and securities gains (losses), net. For more information on these noninterest income items, please see the analysis included in the section captioned “Noninterest Income.”

Noninterest expense for the General Banking Segment increased $2.1 million, or 1.9%, when the first three months of 2024 is compared with the same time period in 2023, principally due to increases in data processing charges related to software and FDIC assessment expense, partially offset by declines in outside services and fees. For more information on these noninterest expense items, please see the analysis included in the section captioned “Noninterest Expense.”

Wealth Management

Net income for the Wealth Management Segment for the first three months of 2024 increased $48 thousand, or 3.1%, when compared to the same time period in 2023, primarily due to an increase in noninterest income partially offset by a decline in net interest income. Net interest income for the Wealth Management Segment decreased $123 thousand, or 8.5%, when the first three months of 2024 is compared to the same time period in 2023, principally due to an increase in interest expense on deposits as well as a decline in interest and fees on loans generated by the Private Banking Department. The PCL for the three months ended March 31, 2024 totaled $168 thousand compared to a PCL of $68 thousand for the same period in 2023. Noninterest income for the Wealth Management Segment, which primarily includes income related to investment management, trust and brokerage services, increased $238 thousand, or 2.7%, when the first three months of 2024 is compared to the same time period in 2023, primarily due to an increase in income from brokerage services partially offset by a decrease in income from trust management services. Noninterest expense for the Wealth Management Segment decreased $43 thousand, or 0.5%, when the first three months of 2024 is compared to the same time period in 2023, principally due to declines in business process outsourcing expense and miscellaneous other expenses largely offset by an increase in salaries and employee benefits expense, primarily related to broker commissions and trust incentives.

At March 31, 2024 and 2023, Trustmark held assets under management and administration of $8.799 billion and $17.448 billion, respectively, and brokerage assets of $2.712 billion and $2.375 billion, respectively.

Insurance

Net income for the Insurance Segment for the first three months of 2024 increased $707 thousand, or 26.3%, when compared to the same time period in 2023. Noninterest income for the Insurance Segment, which is predominately composed of insurance commissions, increased $1.7 million, or 11.9%, when the first three months of 2024 is compared to the same time period in 2023, primarily due to new business commission volume in the commercial property and casualty business. Noninterest expense for the Insurance Segment increased $744 thousand, or 7.0%, when the first three months of 2024 is compared to the same time period in 2023, primarily due to an increase in salaries expense principally resulting from an increase in commission expense as a result of higher business volumes.

See the section captioned “Executive Overview” above for a description of TNB’s plans to sell its wholly owned subsidiary FBBI, which comprises the entirety of Trustmark’s Insurance Segment.

Income Taxes

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, Trustmark’s combined effective tax rate was 16.1% compared to 15.7% for the same time period in 2023. Trustmark’s effective tax rate continues to be less than the statutory rate primarily due to various tax-exempt income items and its utilization of income tax credit programs. Trustmark invests in partnerships that provide income tax credits on a Federal and/or State basis (i.e., new market tax credits, low-income housing tax credits or historical tax credits). The income tax credits related to these partnerships are utilized as specifically allowed by income tax law and are recorded as a reduction in income tax expense.

Financial Condition

Earning assets serve as the primary revenue streams for Trustmark and are comprised of securities, loans, federal funds sold, securities sold under reverse repurchase agreements and other earning assets. Average earning assets totaled $17.088 billion, or 91.5% of total average assets, for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to $16.856 billion, or 91.1% of total average assets, for the three months ended March 31, 2023, an increase of $231.3 billion, or 1.4%.

Securities

The securities portfolio is utilized by Management to manage interest rate risk, generate interest income, provide liquidity and use as collateral for public deposits and wholesale funding. Risk and return can be adjusted by altering duration, composition and/or balance of the portfolio. The weighted-average life of the portfolio was 4.3 years at March 31, 2024 compared to 4.5 years at December 31, 2023.

When compared to December 31, 2023, total investment securities decreased by $71.8 million, or 2.3%, during the first three months of 2024. This decrease resulted primarily from calls, maturities and pay-downs of the loans underlying GSE guaranteed securities. Trustmark sold no securities during the first three months of 2024 or 2023.

During 2022, Trustmark reclassified approximately $766.0 million of securities available for sale to securities held to maturity to mitigate the potential adverse impact of a rising interest rate environment on the fair value of the available for sale securities and the related impact on tangible common equity. At the date of these transfers, the net unrealized holding loss on the available for sale securities totaled approximately $91.9 million ($68.9 million net of tax). The resulting net unrealized holding losses are being amortized over the remaining life of the securities as a yield adjustment in a manner consistent with the amortization or accretion of the original purchase premium or discount on the associated security.

At March 31, 2024, the net unamortized, unrealized loss on all transferred securities included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (AOCI) in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets totaled $54.8 million compared to $57.6 million at December 31, 2023.

Available for sale securities are carried at their estimated fair value with unrealized gains or losses recognized, net of taxes, in AOCI, a separate component of shareholders’ equity. At March 31, 2024, available for sale securities totaled $1.702 billion, which represented 54.6% of the securities portfolio, compared to $1.763 billion, or 55.3% of total securities, at December 31, 2023. At March 31, 2024, unrealized losses, net on available for sale securities totaled $198.7 million compared to unrealized losses, net of $196.1 million at December 31, 2023. At March 31, 2024, available for sale securities consisted of U.S. Treasury securities, obligations of states and political subdivisions, GSE guaranteed mortgage-related securities and direct obligations of government agencies and GSEs.

Held to maturity securities are carried at amortized cost and represent those securities that Trustmark both intends and has the ability to hold to maturity. At March 31, 2024, held to maturity securities totaled $1.415 billion, which represented 45.4% of the total securities portfolio, compared to $1.426 billion, or 44.7% of total securities, at December 31, 2023.

Management continues to focus on asset quality as one of the strategic goals of the securities portfolio, which is evidenced by the investment of 100.0% of the portfolio in GSE-backed obligations and other Aaa-rated securities as determined by Moody’s Investors Services (Moody’s). None of the securities owned by Trustmark are collateralized by assets which are considered sub-prime. Furthermore, outside of stock ownership in the FHLB of Dallas, FHLB of Atlanta and FRBA, Trustmark does not hold any other equity investment in a GSE or other governmental entity.

As of March 31, 2024, Trustmark did not hold securities of any one issuer with a carrying value exceeding 10% of total shareholders’ equity, other than certain GSEs which are exempt from inclusion. Management continues to closely monitor the credit quality as well as the ratings of the debt and mortgage-backed securities issued by the GSEs and held in Trustmark’s securities portfolio.

The following table presents Trustmark’s securities portfolio by amortized cost and estimated fair value and by credit rating, as determined by Moody’s, at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 ($ in thousands):

LHFS

At March 31, 2024, LHFS totaled $172.9 million, consisting of $95.2 million of residential real estate mortgage loans in the process of being sold to third parties and $77.7 million of GNMA optional repurchase loans. At December 31, 2023, LHFS totaled $184.8 million, consisting of $106.0 million of residential real estate mortgage loans in the process of being sold to third parties and $78.8 million of GNMA optional repurchase loans. Please refer to the nonperforming assets table that follows for information on GNMA loans eligible for repurchase which are past due 90 days or more.

Trustmark did not exercise its buy-back option on any delinquent loans serviced for GNMA during the first three months of 2024 or 2023.

For additional information regarding the GNMA optional repurchase loans, please see the section captioned “Past Due LHFS” included in Note 3 – LHFI and Allowance for Credit Losses, LHFI of Part I. Item 1. – Financial Statements of this report.

LHFI $ 13,057,943 100.0 % $ 12,950,524 100.0 %

LHFI increased $107.4 million, or 0.8%, compared to December 31, 2023. The increase in LHFI during the first three months of 2024 was primarily due to net growth in LHFI secured by real estate partially offset by a decline in state and other political subdivision LHFI.

LHFI secured by real estate increased $141.4 million, or 1.5%, during the first three months of 2024, primarily due to net growth in other real estate secured LHFI, other construction LHFI and LHFI secured by nonfarm, nonresidential properties (NFNR), partially offset by net declines in construction, land development and other land LHFI and LHFI secured by 1-4 family residential properties. Other real estate secured LHFI increased $72.1 million, or 5.5%, during the first three months of 2024, primarily due to other construction loans that moved to LHFI secured by multi-family residential properties in the Texas, Alabama and Mississippi market regions. Excluding other construction loan reclassifications, other real estate secured LHFI decreased $14.5 million, or 1.1%, during the first three months of 2024 principally due to declines in LHFI secured by multi-family residential properties in the Alabama market region, partially offset by growth in LHFI secured by multi-family residential properties in the Texas and Mississippi market regions. Other construction loans increased $54.7 million, or 6.3%, during the first three months of 2024 primarily due to new construction loans across all five market regions partially offset by other construction loans moved to other loan categories upon the completion of the related construction project. During the first three months of 2024, $224.1 million loans were moved from other construction to other loan categories, including $86.6 million to multi-family residential loans, $126.6 million to nonowner-occupied loans and $10.9 million to owner-occupied loans. Excluding all reclassifications between loan categories, growth in other construction loans totaled $255.7 million, or 29.5%, during the first three months of 2024. NFNR LHFI increased $53.8 million, or 1.5%, during the first three months of 2024 principally due to other construction loans that moved to NFNR LHFI in the Mississippi, Alabama, Texas and Florida market regions. Excluding other construction loan reclassifications, NFNR LHFI decreased $83.7 million, or 2.4%, during the first three months of 2024 principally due to declines in nonowner-occupied loans in the Mississippi and Texas market regions. LHFI secured by construction, land development and other land decreased $25.9 million, or 4.0%, during the first three months of 2024 primarily due to declines in land development loans in the Alabama and Mississippi market regions. LHFI secured by 1-4 family residential properties decreased $16.2 million, or 0.7%, during the first three months of 2024 primarily in the Mississippi market region. Trustmark's LHFI secured by 1-4 family residential properties are primarily included in the Mississippi market region because these loans are centrally analyzed and approved as part of the mortgage line of business which is located in Jackson, Mississippi.

State and other political subdivision LHFI declined $35.6 million, or 3.3%, during the first three months of 2024, reflecting declines across all five market regions.

The following table provides information regarding Trustmark’s home equity loans and home equity lines of credit which are included in the LHFI secured by 1-4 family residential properties for the periods presented ($ in thousands):

March 31, 2024 December 31, 2023
Home equity loans $ 61,619 $ 58,176
Home equity lines of credit 437,565 430,933
Percentage of loans and lines for which Trustmark holds first lien 47.8 % 47.8 %
Percentage of loans and lines for which Trustmark does not hold first lien 52.2 % 52.2 %

Due to the increased risk associated with second liens, loan terms and underwriting guidelines differ from those used for products secured by first liens. Loan amounts and loan-to-value ratios are limited and are lower for second liens than first liens. Also, interest rates and maximum amortization periods are adjusted accordingly. In addition, regardless of lien position, the passing credit score for approval of all home equity lines of credit is generally higher than that of term loans. The ACL on LHFI is also reflective of the increased risk related to second liens through application of a greater loss factor to this portion of the portfolio.

Trustmark’s variable rate LHFI are based primarily on various prime and SOFR interest rate bases. The following tables provide information regarding the interest rate terms of Trustmark’s LHFI as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 ($ in thousands):

Allowance for Credit Losses

LHFI

Trustmark’s ACL methodology for LHFI is based upon guidance within FASB ASC Subtopic 326-20, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses – Measured at Amortized Cost,” as well as applicable regulatory guidance from its primary regulator. The ACL is a valuation account that is deducted from the loans’ amortized cost basis to present the net amount expected to be collected on the loans. Credit quality within the LHFI portfolio is continuously monitored by Management and is reflected within the ACL for loans. The ACL is an estimate of expected losses inherent within Trustmark’s existing LHFI portfolio. The ACL on LHFI is adjusted through the PCL, LHFI and reduced by the charge off of loan amounts, net of recoveries.

The loan loss estimation process involves procedures to appropriately consider the unique characteristics of Trustmark’s LHFI portfolio segments. These segments are further disaggregated into loan classes, the level at which credit risk is estimated. When computing allowance levels, credit loss assumptions are estimated using a model that categorizes loan pools based on loss history, delinquency status and other credit trends and risk characteristics, including current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts about the future. Evaluations of the portfolio and individual credits are inherently subjective, as they require estimates, assumptions and judgments as to the facts and circumstances of particular situations.

The econometric models currently in production reflect segment or pool level sensitivities of probability of default (PD) to changes in macroeconomic variables. By measuring the relationship between defaults and changes in the economy, the quantitative reserve incorporates reasonable and supportable forecasts of future conditions that will affect the value of Trustmark's assets, as required by FASB ASC Topic 326. Under stable forecasts, these linear regressions will reasonably predict a pool’s PD. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the macroeconomic variables used for reasonable and supportable forecasting changed rapidly. At the macroeconomic levels experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic, it was not clear that the models in production would produce reasonably representative results since the models were originally estimated using data beginning in 2004 through 2019. During this period, a traditional, albeit severe, economic recession occurred. Thus, econometric models are sensitive to similar future levels of PD.

In order to prevent the econometric models from extrapolating beyond reasonable boundaries of their input variables, Trustmark chose to establish an upper and lower limit process when applying the periodic forecasts. In this way, Management will not rely upon unobserved and untested relationships in the setting of the quantitative reserve. This approach applies to all input variables, including: Southern Unemployment, National Unemployment, National Gross Domestic Product (GDP), National Home Price Index (HPI), National Commercial Real Estate (CRE) Price Index and the BBB 7-10 Year US Corporate Bond Index. The upper and lower limits are based on the distribution of the macroeconomic variable by selecting extreme percentiles at the upper and lower limits of the distribution, the 1st and 99th percentiles, respectively. These upper and lower limits are then used to calculate the PD for the forecast time period in which the forecasted values are outside of the upper and lower limit range. Due to multiple periods having a PD or loss given default (LGD) at or near zero as a result of the improving macroeconomic forecasts, Management implemented PD and LGD floors to account for the risk associated with each portfolio. The PD and LGD floors are based on Trustmark's historical loss experience and applied at a portfolio level.

The external factors qualitative factor is Management’s best judgment on the loan or pool level impact of all factors that affect the portfolio that are not accounted for using any other part of the ACL methodology (i.e., natural disasters, changes in legislation, impacts due to technology and pandemics). Trustmark's External Factor – Pandemic ensured reserve adequacy for collectively evaluated loans most likely to be impacted by the unique economic and behavioral conditions created by the COVID-19 pandemic. Additional qualitative reserves are derived based on two principles. The first is the disconnect of economic factors to Trustmark’s modeled PD (derived from the econometric models underpinning the quantitative pooled reserves). During the pandemic, extraordinary measures by the federal government were made available to consumers and businesses, including COVID-19 loan payment concessions, direct transfer payments to households, tax deferrals and reduced interest rates, among others. These government interventions may have extended the lag between economic conditions and default, relative to what was captured in the model development data. Because Trustmark’s econometric PD models rely on the observed relationship from the economic downturn from 2007 to 2009 in both timing and severity, Management did not expect the models to reflect these conditions. For example, while the models would predict contemporaneous unemployment peaks and loan defaults, this might not have occurred when borrowers could request payment deferrals. Thus, for the affected population, economic conditions were not fully considered as a part of Trustmark’s quantitative reserve. The second principle is the change in risk that is identified by rating changes. As a part of Trustmark’s credit review process, loans in the affected population were given more frequent screening to ensure accurate ratings were maintained through this dynamic period. Trustmark’s quantitative reserve did not directly address changes in ratings; thus, a migration qualitative factor was designed to work in concert with the quantitative reserve.

As discussed above, the disconnect of economic factors means that changes in rating caused by deteriorating and weak economic conditions as a result of the pandemic were not being captured in the quantitative reserve. During 2020, due to unforeseen pandemic conditions that varied from Management’s expectations, additional reserves were further dimensioned in order to appropriately reflect the risk within the portfolio related to the COVID-19 pandemic. In an effort to ensure the External Factor – Pandemic qualitative factor was reasonable and supportable, historical Trustmark loss data was leveraged to construct a framework that was quantitative in nature. To dimension the additional reserve, Management used the sensitivity of the quantitative commercial loan reserve to changes in macroeconomic conditions to apply to loans rated acceptable or better (risk rates 1-4). In addition, to account for the known changes in risk, a weighted average of the commercial loan portfolio loss rate, derived from the performance trends qualitative factor, was used to dimension additional reserves for downgraded credits. Loans rated acceptable with risk (risk rate 5) or watch (risk rate 6) received the additional reserves based on the average of the macroeconomic conditions and weighted average of the commercial loan portfolio loss rate while the loans rated special mention (risk rate 7) and substandard (risk rate 8) received additional reserves based on the weighted-average described above. During 2022, Management noted that all pass rate loans (risk rate 5 and 6) related to the External Factor - Pandemic qualitative factor either did not experience significant stress related to the pandemic or had since recovered and did not expect

future stresses attributed to the pandemic that could affect these loans. As a result, Management decided to accelerate the release of the additional pandemic reserves on all pass rate loans as a result of pandemic conditions resolving. During the fourth quarter of 2023, Management decided to resolve the External Factor-Pandemic qualitative factor as a result of the remaining loan balances that were identified as COVID affected loans being immaterial from both a reserve and balance perspective. The remaining loans were incorporated back into the performance qualitative factor as a result of this resolution. Further, due to this resolution there is no longer any active External Factor as of December 31, 2023.

During 2022, Management elected to activate the nature and volume of the portfolio qualitative factor as a result of a sub-pool of the secured by 1-4 family residential properties growing to a significant size along with the underlying nature being different as well. The nature and volume of the portfolio qualitative factor utilizes a WARM methodology that uses industry data for the assumptions to support the qualitative adjustment. The industry data is used to compile a PD based on credit score ranges along with using the industry data to compile an LGD. The sub-pool of credits is then aggregated into the appropriate credit score bands in which a weighted-average loss rate is calculated based on the PD and LGD for each credit score range. This weighted-average loss rate is then applied to the expected balance for the sub-segment of credits. This total is then used as the qualitative reserve adjustment.

Trustmark's current quantitative methodologies do not completely incorporate changes in credit quality. As a result, Trustmark utilizes the performance trends qualitative factor. This factor is based on migration analyses, that allocates additional ACL to non-pass/delinquent loans within each pool. In this way, Management believes the ACL will directly reflect changes in risk, based on the performance of the loans within a pool, whether declining or improving.

The performance trends qualitative factor is estimated by properly segmenting loan pools into risk levels by risk rating for commercial credits and delinquency status for consumer credits. A migration analysis is then performed quarterly using a third-party software and the results for each risk level are compiled to calculate the historical PD average for each loan portfolio based on risk levels. This average historical PD rate is updated annually. For the mortgage portfolio, Trustmark uses an internal report to incorporate a roll rate method for the calculation of the PD rate. In addition to the PD rate for each portfolio, Management incorporates the quantitative rate and the k value derived from the Frye-Jacobs method to calculate a loss estimate that includes both PD and LGD. The quantitative rate is used to eliminate any additional reserve that the quantitative reserve already includes. Finally, the loss estimate rate is then applied to the total balances for each risk level for each portfolio to calculate a qualitative reserve.

Determining the appropriateness of the allowance is complex and requires judgment by Management about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. In future periods, evaluations of the overall LHFI portfolio, in light of the factors and forecasts then prevailing, may result in significant changes in the allowance and credit loss expense.

For a complete description of Trustmark’s ACL methodology and the quantitative and qualitative factors included in the calculation, please see Note 3 – LHFI and Allowance for Credit Losses, LHFI included in Part I. Item 1. – Financial Statements of this report.

At March 31, 2024, the ACL on LHFI was $143.0 million, an increase of $3.6 million, or 2.6%, when compared with December 31, 2023. The increase in the ACL during the first three months of 2024 was principally due to changes in the macroeconomic forecasts resulting from the annual loss driver analysis performed during the first quarter of 2024 partially offset by updates to the qualitative reserve factors. Allocation of Trustmark’s $143.0 million ACL on LHFI, represented 0.93% of commercial LHFI and 1.63% of consumer and home mortgage LHFI, resulting in an ACL to total LHFI of 1.10% as of March 31, 2024. This compares with an ACL to total LHFI of 1.08% at December 31, 2023, which was allocated to commercial LHFI at 0.85% and to consumer and mortgage LHFI at 1.81%.

The following table presents changes in the ACL on LHFI for the periods presented ($ in thousands):

Three Months Ended March 31,
2024 2023
Balance at beginning of period $ 139,367 $ 120,214
Provision for credit losses, LHFI 7,708 3,244
LHFI charged-off (6,324 ) (2,996 )
Recoveries 2,247 1,777
Net (charge-offs) recoveries (4,077 ) (1,219 )
Balance at end of period $ 142,998 $ 122,239

The increase in net charge-offs when the three months ended March 31, 2024 is compared to the same time period in 2023 was principally due to increases in gross charge-offs across all five market regions, partially offset by an increase in recoveries in the Florida and Texas market regions.

The following table presents the net (charge-offs) recoveries by geographic market region for the periods presented ($ in thousands):

Three Months Ended March 31,
2024 2023
Alabama $ (341 ) $ (268 )
Florida 277 (36 )
Mississippi (1,489 ) (775 )
Tennessee (179 ) (124 )
Texas (2,345 ) (16 )
Total net (charge-offs) recoveries $ (4,077 ) $ (1,219 )

The PCL, LHFI for the three months ended March 31, 2024 totaled 0.24% of average loans (LHFS and LHFI) compared to 0.10% of average loans (LHFS and LHFI) for the same time period in 2023. The PCL on LHFI for the three months ended March 31, 2024 primarily reflected an increase in required reserves as a result of changes in the macroeconomic forecasts resulting from the annual loss driver analysis performed during the first quarter of 2024 partially offset by a decline in required reserves as a result of updates to the qualitative reserve factors.

Off-Balance Sheet Credit Exposures

Trustmark maintains a separate ACL on off-balance sheet credit exposures, including unfunded loan commitments and letters of credit, which is included on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Expected credit losses for off-balance sheet credit exposures are estimated by calculating a commitment usage factor over the contractual period for exposures that are not unconditionally cancellable by Trustmark. Trustmark calculates a loan pool level unfunded amount for the period. Trustmark calculates an expected funding rate each period which is applied to each pool’s unfunded commitment balances to ensure that reserves will be applied to each pool based upon balances expected to be funded based upon historical levels. Additionally, a reserve rate is applied to the unfunded commitment balance, which incorporates both quantitative and a majority of the qualitative aspects of the current period’s expected credit loss rate. The reserve rate that is applied excludes the reserve impact of the performance trends qualitative factor. During the first quarter of 2024, Management decided to implement a performance trends qualitative factor for unfunded commitments. The same assumptions are applied in this calculation that the funded balances utilize with the addition of using the funding rates on the unfunded commitments. The performance trends qualitative factor reserve is then added to the other calculated reserve to get a total reserve for off-balance sheet credit exposures. See the section captioned “ACL on Off-Balance Sheet Credit Exposures” in Note 12 – Contingencies included in Part I. Item 1. – Financial Statements of this report for complete description of Trustmark’s ACL methodology on off-balance sheet credit exposures.

Adjustments to the ACL on off-balance sheet credit exposures are recorded to the PCL, off-balance sheet credit exposures. At March 31, 2024, the ACL on off-balance sheet credit exposures totaled $33.9 million compared to $34.1 million at December 31, 2023, a decrease of $192 thousand, or 0.6%. The PCL, off-balance sheet credit exposures totaled a negative $192 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to a negative $2.2 million for the same time period in 2023. The release in PCL on off-balance sheet credit exposures for the three months ended March 31, 2024, primarily reflected a decrease in required reserves as a result of a decrease in unfunded commitments largely offset by an increase in required reserves as a result of implementing the performance trend qualitative reserve factor.

Nonperforming Assets

The table below provides the components of nonperforming assets by geographic market region at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 ($ in thousands):

March 31, 2024 December 31, 2023

LHFI $ 5,243 $ 5,790
LHFS - Guaranteed GNMA serviced loans (1) $ 56,530 $ 51,243

(1)

No obligation to repurchase.

See the previous discussion of LHFS for more information on Trustmark’s serviced GNMA loans eligible for repurchase and the impact of Trustmark’s repurchases of delinquent mortgage loans under the GNMA optional repurchase program.

Nonaccrual LHFI

At March 31, 2024, nonaccrual LHFI totaled $98.4 million, or 0.74% of total LHFS and LHFI, reflecting a decrease of $1.7 million, or 1.7%, relative to December 31, 2023. The decrease in nonaccrual LHFI during the first three months of 2024 was primarily as a result of the resolution of one large nonaccrual commercial credit in the Texas market region partially offset by one large commercial credit placed on nonaccrual in the Texas market region as well as an increase in mortgage nonaccruals.

For additional information regarding nonaccrual LHFI, see the section captioned “Nonaccrual and Past Due LHFI” included in Note 3 – LHFI and Allowance for Credit Losses, LHFI in Part I. Item 1. – Financial Statements of this report.

Other Real Estate

Other real estate at March 31, 2024 increased $753 thousand, or 11.0%, when compared with December 31, 2023. The increase in other real estate was principally due to properties foreclosed in the Mississippi market region partially offset by properties sold in the Alabama and Mississippi market regions as well as write-downs of properties in the Texas market region.

The following tables illustrate changes in other real estate by geographic market region for the periods presented ($ in thousands):

Three Months Ended March 31, 2024
Total Alabama Florida Mississippi Tennessee Texas

Other real estate is revalued on an annual basis or more often if market conditions necessitate. Subsequent to foreclosure, losses on the periodic revaluation of the property are charged against the reserve for other real estate write-downs or net income in other real estate expense, if a reserve does not exist. Write-downs of other real estate increased $458 thousand when the first three months of 2024 is compared to the same time period in 2023, primarily due to an increase in the reserve for other real estate write-downs in the Texas market region as a result of periodic revaluations of other real estate properties.

For additional information regarding other real estate, please see Note 5 – Other Real Estate included in Part I. Item 1. – Financial Statements of this report.

Deposits

Trustmark’s deposits are its primary source of funding and primarily consist of core deposits from the communities Trustmark serves. Deposits include interest-bearing and noninterest-bearing demand accounts, savings, MMDA, CDs and individual retirement accounts. Total deposits were $15.339 billion at March 31, 2024 compared to $15.570 billion at December 31, 2023, a decrease of $231.2 million, or 1.5%. During the first three months of 2024, noninterest-bearing deposits decreased $158.0 million, or 4.9%, reflecting declines in all categories of noninterest-bearing deposits reflecting customers migration into higher-yielding products. Interest-bearing deposits decreased $73.2 million, or 0.6%, during the first three months of 2024, primarily due to declines in public and consumer interest checking accounts and consumer CDs, partially offset by growth in business and consumer MMDA.

At March 31, 2024, Trustmark's total uninsured deposits were $5.531 billion, or 36.1% of total deposits, compared to $5.601 billion, or 36.0% of total deposits, at December 31, 2023.

Borrowings

Trustmark uses short-term borrowings, such as federal funds purchased, securities sold under repurchase agreements and short-term FHLB advances, to fund growth of earning assets in excess of deposit growth. See the section captioned “Liquidity” for further discussion of the components of Trustmark’s excess funding capacity.

Federal funds purchased and securities sold under repurchase agreements totaled $393.2 million at March 31, 2024 compared to $405.7 million at December 31, 2023, a decrease of $12.5 million, or 3.1%, principally due to a decrease in upstream federal funds purchased. At March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, $48.2 million and $35.7 million represented customer related transactions, such as commercial sweep repurchase balances. Trustmark had $345.0 million of upstream federal funds purchased at March 31, 2024 compared to $370.0 million at December 31, 2023.

Other borrowings totaled $482.0 million at March 31, 2024, a decrease of $1.2 million, or 0.2%, when compared with $483.2 million at December 31, 2023, principally due to a decline in GNMA loans eligible for repurchase.

Legal Environment

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Information required in this section is set forth under the heading “Lending Related” of Note 12 – Contingencies included in Part I. Item 1. – Financial Statements of this report.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

Trustmark places a significant emphasis on the maintenance of a strong capital position, which promotes investor confidence, provides access to funding sources under favorable terms and enhances Trustmark’s ability to capitalize on business growth and acquisition opportunities. Higher levels of liquidity, however, bear corresponding costs, measured in terms of lower yields on short-term, more liquid earning assets and higher expenses for extended liability maturities. Trustmark manages capital based upon risks and growth opportunities as well as regulatory requirements. Trustmark utilizes a capital model in order to provide Management with a monthly tool for analyzing changes in its strategic capital ratios. This allows Management to hold sufficient capital to provide for growth opportunities and protect the balance sheet against sudden adverse market conditions, while maintaining an attractive return on equity to shareholders.

At March 31, 2024, Trustmark’s total shareholders’ equity was $1.683 billion, an increase of $20.8 million, or 1.2%, when compared to December 31, 2023. During the first three months of 2024, shareholders’ equity increased primarily as a result of net income of $41.5 million, partially offset by common stock dividends of $14.2 million.

Regulatory Capital

Trustmark and TNB are subject to minimum risk-based capital and leverage capital requirements, as described in the section captioned “Capital Adequacy” included in Part I. Item 1. – Business of Trustmark’s 2023 Annual Report, which are administered by the federal bank regulatory agencies. These capital requirements, as defined by federal regulations, involve quantitative and qualitative measures of assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet instruments. Trustmark’s and TNB’s minimum risk-based capital requirements include a capital conservation buffer of 2.5%. AOCI is not included in computing regulatory capital. Trustmark elected the five-year phase-in transition period (through December 31, 2024) related to adopting FASB ASU 2016-13 for regulatory capital purposes. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can result in certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the financial statements of Trustmark and TNB and limit Trustmark’s and TNB’s ability to pay dividends. At March 31, 2024, Trustmark and TNB exceeded all applicable minimum capital standards. In addition, Trustmark and TNB met applicable regulatory guidelines to be considered well-capitalized at March 31, 2024. To be categorized in this manner, Trustmark and TNB maintained minimum common equity Tier 1 risk-based capital, Tier 1 risk-based capital, total risk-based capital and Tier 1 leverage ratios, and were not subject to any written agreement, order or capital directive, or prompt corrective action directive issued by their primary federal regulators to meet and maintain a specific capital level for any capital measures. There are no significant conditions or events that have occurred since March 31, 2024 which Management believes have affected Trustmark’s or TNB’s present classification.

In 2020, Trustmark enhanced its capital structure with the issuance of $125.0 million of subordinated notes. At both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the carrying amount of the subordinated notes was $123.5 million. The subordinated notes mature December 1, 2030 and are redeemable at Trustmark’s option under certain circumstances. For regulatory capital purposes, the subordinated notes qualified as Tier 2 capital for Trustmark at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. Trustmark may utilize the full carrying value of the subordinated notes as Tier 2 capital until December 1, 2025 (five years prior to maturity). Beginning December 1, 2025, the subordinated notes will phase out of Tier 2 capital 20.0% each year until maturity.

In 2006, Trustmark enhanced its capital structure with the issuance of trust preferred securities. For regulatory capital purposes, the trust preferred securities qualified as Tier 1 capital at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. Trustmark intends to continue to utilize $60.0 million in trust preferred securities issued by Trustmark Preferred Capital Trust I (the Trust) as Tier 1 capital up to the regulatory limit, as permitted by the grandfather provision in the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the Basel III Final Rule.

Refer to the section captioned “Regulatory Capital” included in Note 15 – Shareholders’ Equity in Part I. Item 1. – Financial Statements of this report for an illustration of Trustmark’s and TNB’s actual regulatory capital amounts and ratios under regulatory capital standards in effect at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Dividends on Common Stock

Dividends per common share for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 were $0.23. Trustmark’s indicated dividend for 2024 is $0.92 per common share, which is the same as dividends per common share declared in 2023.

Stock Repurchase Program

From time to time, Trustmark's Board of Directors has authorized stock repurchase plans. In general, stock repurchase plans allow Trustmark to proactively manage its capital position and return excess capital to shareholders. Shares purchased also provide Trustmark with shares of common stock necessary to satisfy obligations related to stock compensation awards.

On December 6, 2022, the Board of Directors of Trustmark authorized a stock repurchase program, effective January 1, 2023, under which $50.0 million of Trustmark's outstanding common stock could be acquired through December 31, 2023. No shares were repurchased under this authority.

On December 5, 2023, the Board of Directors of Trustmark authorized a new stock repurchase program, effective January 1, 2024, under which $50.0 million of Trustmark's outstanding common stock may be acquired through December 31, 2024. The repurchase program, which is subject to market conditions and management discretion, will be implemented through open market repurchases or privately negotiated transactions. No shares have been repurchased under this authority.

Liquidity

Liquidity is the ability to ensure that sufficient cash flow and liquid assets are available to satisfy current and future financial obligations, including demand for loans and deposit withdrawals, funding operating costs and other corporate purposes. Consistent cash flows from operations and adequate capital provide internally generated liquidity. Furthermore, Management maintains funding capacity from a variety of external sources to meet daily funding needs, such as those required to meet deposit withdrawals, loan disbursements and security settlements. Liquidity strategy also includes the use of wholesale funding sources to provide for the seasonal fluctuations of deposit and loan demand and the cyclical fluctuations of the economy that impact the availability of funds. Management keeps excess funding capacity available to meet potential demands associated with adverse circumstances.

The asset side of the balance sheet provides liquidity primarily through maturities and cash flows from loans and securities as well as the ability to pledge or sell certain loans and securities. The liability portion of the balance sheet provides liquidity primarily through noninterest and interest-bearing deposits. Trustmark utilizes federal funds purchased, FHLB advances, securities sold under repurchase agreements, the Federal Reserve Discount Window (Discount Window) and brokered deposits to provide additional liquidity. Access to these additional sources represents Trustmark’s incremental borrowing capacity.

Trustmark's liquidity position is continuously monitored and adjustments are made to manage the balance as deemed appropriate. Liquidity risk management is an important element to Trustmark's asset/liability management process. Trustmark regularly models liquidity stress scenarios to assess potential liquidity outflows or funding problems resulting from economic disruptions or other significant occurrences as deemed appropriate by Management. These scenarios are incorporated into Trustmark's contingency funding plan, which provides the basis for the identification of its liquidity needs.

Deposit accounts represent Trustmark’s largest funding source. Average deposits totaled $15.420 billion for the first three months of 2024 and represented approximately 82.6% of average liabilities and shareholders’ equity, compared to average deposits of $14.666 billion, which represented 79.3% of average liabilities and shareholders’ equity for the first three months of 2023. For more information on average interest-bearing deposits, please see the analysis included in the section captioned “Net Interest Income.”

Trustmark had $368.5 million held in an interest-bearing account at the FRBA at March 31, 2024, compared to $712.0 million held at December 31, 2023.

Trustmark utilizes brokered deposits to supplement other wholesale funding sources. At March 31, 2024, brokered sweep MMDA deposits totaled $10.5 million compared to $10.6 million at December 31, 2023. In addition, Trustmark had $586.9 million of brokered CDs at March 31, 2024 compared to $578.8 million at December 31, 2023.

At March 31, 2024, Trustmark had $345.0 million of upstream federal funds purchased compared to $370.0 million of upstream federal funds purchased at December 31, 2023. Trustmark maintains adequate federal funds lines to provide sufficient short-term liquidity.

Trustmark maintains a relationship with the FHLB of Dallas, which provided $400.0 million of outstanding short-term and no long-term advances at both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. Trustmark had no letters of credit outstanding with the FHLB of Dallas at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. Under the existing borrowing agreement, Trustmark had sufficient qualifying collateral to increase FHLB advances or letters of credit with the FHLB of Dallas by $4.065 billion at March 31, 2024.

In addition, at March 31, 2024, Trustmark had no short-term and $53 thousand in long-term FHLB advances outstanding with the FHLB of Atlanta, which were acquired in the BancTrust merger in 2013, compared to no short-term and $58 thousand in long-term FHLB advances at December 31, 2023. Trustmark has non-member status and thus no additional borrowing capacity with the FHLB of Atlanta.

Additionally, Trustmark has the ability to leverage its unencumbered investment securities as collateral. At March 31, 2024, Trustmark had approximately $799.0 million available in unencumbered U.S. Treasury and agency securities compared to $842.0 million in unencumbered Treasury and agency securities at December 31, 2023.

Another borrowing source is the Discount Window. At March 31, 2024, Trustmark had approximately $1.412 billion available in collateral capacity at the Discount Window primarily from pledges of commercial and industrial LHFI, compared with $1.374 billion at December 31, 2023.

Additionally, on March 15, 2020, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the FRB reduced reserve requirements for insured depository institutions to zero percent, which increased TNB’s available liquidity.

During 2020, Trustmark issued $125.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 3.625% fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes. At both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the carrying amount of the subordinated notes was $123.5 million. The subordinated notes mature December 1, 2030 and are redeemable at Trustmark’s option under certain circumstances. The subordinated notes are unsecured obligations and are subordinated in right of payment to all of Trustmark’s existing and future senior indebtedness, whether secured or unsecured. The subordinated notes are obligations of Trustmark only and are not obligations of, and are not guaranteed by, any of its subsidiaries, including TNB.

During 2006, Trustmark completed a private placement of $60.0 million of trust preferred securities through a newly formed Delaware trust affiliate, the Trust. The trust preferred securities mature September 30, 2036 and are redeemable at Trustmark’s option. The proceeds from the sale of the trust preferred securities were used by the Trust to purchase $61.9 million in aggregate principal amount of Trustmark’s junior subordinated debentures.

The Board of Directors of Trustmark currently has the authority to issue up to 20.0 million preferred shares with no par value. The ability to issue preferred shares in the future will provide Trustmark with additional financial and management flexibility for general corporate and acquisition purposes. At March 31, 2024, Trustmark had no shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding.

Management believes that Trustmark has sufficient liquidity and capital resources to meet presently known cash flow requirements arising from ongoing business transactions. As of March 31, 2024, Management is not aware of any events that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on Trustmark's liquidity, capital resources or operations. In addition, Management is not aware of any regulatory recommendations regarding liquidity that would have a material adverse effect on Trustmark.

In the ordinary course of business, Trustmark has entered into contractual obligations and has made other commitments to make future payments. Please refer to the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements included in Part I. Item 1. – Financial Statements of this report and Trustmark's 2023 Annual Report for the expected timing of such payments as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. There have been no material changes in Trustmark's contractual obligations since year-end.

Asset/Liability Management

Overview

Market risk reflects the potential risk of loss arising from adverse changes in interest rates and market prices. Trustmark has risk management policies to monitor and limit exposure to market risk. Trustmark’s primary market risk is interest rate risk created by core banking activities. Interest rate risk is the potential variability of the income generated by Trustmark’s financial products or services, which results from changes in various market interest rates. Market rate changes may take the form of absolute shifts, variances in the relationships between different rates and changes in the shape or slope of the interest rate term structure.

Following the LIBOR cessation date of June 30, 2023, the nationwide process for replacing LIBOR in financial contracts that mature thereafter and that do not provide for an effective means to replace LIBOR upon its cessation took effect pursuant to the Adjustable Interest Rate (LIBOR) Act. For contracts in which a party has the discretion to identify a replacement rate, the Adjustable Interest Rate (LIBOR) Act also provides a safe harbor to parties if they choose the SOFR-based benchmark replacement rate to be identified by the FRB. Trustmark had a significant number of loans, derivative contracts, borrowings and other financial instruments with attributes that were either directly or indirectly dependent on LIBOR. As of March 31, 2024, all of Trustmark’s LIBOR exposure was remediated or in the process of being remediated. The transition from LIBOR could create costs and additional risk. Trustmark cannot predict what the ultimate impact of the transition from LIBOR will be; however, Trustmark has implemented various measures to manage the

transition and mitigate risks. For additional information regarding the transition from LIBOR and Trustmark’s management of this transition, please see the respective risk factor included in Part I. Item 1A. – Risk Factors, of Trustmark’s 2023 Annual Report.

Management continually develops and applies cost-effective strategies to manage these risks. Management’s Asset/Liability Committee sets the day-to-day operating guidelines, approves strategies affecting net interest income and coordinates activities within policy limits established by the Board of Directors of Trustmark. A key objective of the asset/liability management program is to quantify, monitor and manage interest rate risk and to assist Management in maintaining stability in the net interest margin under varying interest rate environments.

Derivatives

Trustmark uses financial derivatives for management of interest rate risk. Management’s Asset/Liability Committee, in its oversight role for the management of interest rate risk, approves the use of derivatives in balance sheet hedging strategies. The most common derivatives employed by Trustmark are interest rate lock commitments, forward contracts (both futures contracts and options on futures contracts), interest rate swaps, interest rate caps and interest rate floors. As a general matter, the values of these instruments are designed to be inversely related to the values of the assets that they hedge (i.e., if the value of the hedged asset falls, the value of the related hedge rises). In addition, Trustmark has entered into derivatives contracts as counterparty to one or more customers in connection with loans extended to those customers. These transactions are designed to hedge interest rate, currency or other exposures of the customers and are not entered into by Trustmark for speculative purposes. Increased federal regulation of the derivatives markets may increase the cost to Trustmark to administer derivatives programs.

Derivatives Designated as Hedging Instruments

During 2022, Trustmark initiated a cash flow hedging program. Trustmark's objectives in initiating this hedging program were to add stability to interest income and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of fixed-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for Trustmark making variable-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. Interest rate floor spreads designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts if interest rates fall below the purchased floor strike rate on the contract and payments of variable rate amounts if interest rates fall below the sold floor strike rate on the contract. Trustmark uses such derivatives to hedge the variable cash flows associated with existing and anticipated variable-rate loan assets. At March 31, 2024, the aggregate notional value of Trustmark's interest rate swaps and floor spreads designated as cash flow hedges totaled $1.225 billion compared to $1.125 billion at December 31, 2023.

Trustmark records any gains or losses on these cash flow hedges in AOCI. Gains and losses on derivatives representing hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized over the life of the hedge on a systematic and rational basis, as documented at hedge inception in accordance with Trustmark’s accounting policy election. The earnings recognition of excluded components totaled $85 thousand and $9 thousand of amortization expense for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and is included in interest and fees on LHFS and LHFI. As interest payments are received on Trustmark's variable-rate assets, amounts reported in AOCI are reclassified into interest and fees on LHFS and LHFI in the accompanying consolidated statements of income during the same period. For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, Trustmark reclassified a loss, net of tax, of $3.6 million and $2.2 million, respectively, into interest and fees on LHFS and LHFI. During the next twelve months, Trustmark estimates that $15.5 million will be reclassified as a reduction to interest and fees on LHFS and LHFI. This amount could differ due to changes in interest rates, hedge de-designations or the addition of other hedges.

Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments

As part of Trustmark’s risk management strategy in the mortgage banking business, various derivative instruments such as interest rate lock commitments and forward sales contracts are utilized. Rate lock commitments are residential mortgage loan commitments with customers, which guarantee a specified interest rate for a specified period of time. Trustmark’s obligations under forward contracts consist of commitments to deliver mortgage loans, originated and/or purchased, in the secondary market at a future date. The gross notional amount of Trustmark’s off-balance sheet obligations under these derivative instruments totaled $217.0 million at March 31, 2024, with a positive valuation adjustment of $949 thousand, compared to $171.4 million, with a negative valuation adjustment of $150 thousand at December 31, 2023.

Trustmark utilizes a portfolio of exchange-traded derivative instruments, such as Treasury note futures contracts and option contracts, to achieve a fair value return that economically hedges changes in fair value of the MSR attributable to interest rates. These transactions are considered freestanding derivatives that do not otherwise qualify for hedge accounting under GAAP. The total notional amount of these derivative instruments was $301.0 million at March 31, 2024 compared to $285.0 million at December 31, 2023. These exchange-traded derivative instruments are accounted for at fair value with changes in the fair value recorded as noninterest income in mortgage

banking, net and are offset by the changes in the fair value of the MSR. The MSR fair value represents the present value of future cash flows, which among other things includes decay and the effect of changes in interest rates. Ineffectiveness of hedging the MSR fair value is measured by comparing the change in value of hedge instruments to the change in the fair value of the MSR asset attributable to changes in interest rates and other market driven changes in valuation inputs and assumptions. The impact of this strategy resulted in a net negative ineffectiveness of $1.1 million and $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Trustmark offers certain interest rate derivatives products directly to qualified commercial lending clients seeking to manage their interest rate risk under loans they have entered into with TNB. Trustmark economically hedges interest rate swap transactions executed with commercial lending clients by entering into offsetting interest rate swap transactions with institutional derivatives market participants. Derivatives transactions executed as part of this program are not designated as qualifying hedging relationships under GAAP and are, therefore, carried on Trustmark’s financial statements at fair value with the change in fair value recorded as noninterest income in bank card and other fees. Because these derivatives have mirror-image contractual terms, in addition to collateral provisions which mitigate the impact of non-performance risk, the changes in fair value are expected to substantially offset. The Chicago Mercantile Exchange rules legally characterize variation margin collateral payments made or received for centrally cleared interest rate swaps as settlements rather than collateral. As a result, centrally cleared interest rate swaps included in other assets and other liabilities are presented on a net basis in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. As of March 31, 2024, Trustmark had interest rate swaps with an aggregate notional amount of $1.470 billion related to this program, compared to $1.500 billion as of December 31, 2023.

Credit-Risk-Related Contingent Features

Trustmark has agreements with its financial institution counterparties that contain provisions where if Trustmark defaults on any of its indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender, then Trustmark could also be deemed to be in default on its derivatives obligations.

At March 31, 2024, there was no termination value of interest rate swaps in a liability position, which includes accrued interest but excludes any adjustment for nonperformance risk, related to these agreements compared to $1.4 million at December 31, 2023. At March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, Trustmark had posted collateral of $40 thousand and $2.0 million, respectively, against its obligations because of negotiated thresholds and minimum transfer amounts under these agreements. If Trustmark had breached any of these triggering provisions at March 31, 2024, it could have been required to settle its obligations under the agreements at the termination value (which is expected to approximate fair market value).

Credit risk participation agreements arise when Trustmark contracts with other financial institutions, as a guarantor or beneficiary, to share credit risk associated with certain interest rate swaps. These agreements provide for reimbursement of losses resulting from a third-party default on the underlying swap. At March 31, 2024, Trustmark had entered into seven risk participation agreements as a beneficiary with an aggregate notional amount of $44.9 million compared to six risk participation agreements as a beneficiary with an aggregate notional amount of $40.1 million at December 31, 2023. At March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, Trustmark had entered into thirty-five risk participation agreements as a guarantor with an aggregate notional amount of $304.1 million and $304.7 million, respectively. The aggregate fair values of these risk participation agreements were immaterial at both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Trustmark’s participation in the derivatives markets is subject to increased federal regulation of these markets. Trustmark believes that it may continue to use financial derivatives to manage interest rate risk and also to offer derivatives products to certain qualified commercial lending clients in compliance with the Volcker Rule. However, the increased federal regulation of the derivatives markets has increased the cost to Trustmark of administering its derivatives programs. Some of these costs (particularly compliance costs related to the Volcker Rule and other federal regulations) are expected to recur in the future.

Market/Interest Rate Risk Management

The primary purpose in managing interest rate risk is to invest capital effectively and preserve the value created by the core banking business. This is accomplished through the development and implementation of lending, funding, pricing and hedging strategies designed to maximize net interest income performance under varying interest rate environments subject to specific liquidity and interest rate risk guidelines.

Financial simulation models are the primary tools used by Management’s Asset/Liability Committee to measure interest rate exposure. The significant increase in short-term market interest rates and the overall interest rate environment is likely to affect the balance sheet composition and rates. The simulation incorporates assumptions regarding the effects of such changes based on a combination of historical analysis and expected behavior. Using a wide range of scenarios, Management is provided with extensive information on the potential impact on net interest income caused by changes in interest rates. Models are structured to simulate cash flows and accrual characteristics of Trustmark’s balance sheet. Assumptions are made about the direction and volatility of interest rates, the slope of the yield curve and the changing composition of Trustmark’s balance sheet, resulting from both strategic plans and customer behavior. In addition, the model incorporates Management’s assumptions and expectations regarding such factors as loan and deposit growth, pricing, prepayment speeds and spreads between interest rates.

Based on the results of the simulation models using static balances, the table below summarizes the effect various one-year interest rate shift scenarios would have on net interest income compared to a base case, flat scenario at March 31, 2024 and 2023.

Estimated % Change<br>in Net Interest Income
Change in Interest Rates 2024 2023
+200 basis points 1.4 % 3.5 %
+100 basis points 0.7 % 1.7 %
-100 basis points -0.8 % -1.8 %
-200 basis points -2.3 % -4.8 %

Management cannot provide any assurance about the actual effect of changes in interest rates on net interest income. The estimates provided do not include the effects of possible strategic changes in the balances of various assets and liabilities throughout 2024 or additional actions Trustmark could undertake in response to changes in interest rates. Management will continue to prudently manage the balance sheet in an effort to control interest rate risk and maintain profitability over the long term.

Another component of interest rate risk management is measuring the economic value-at-risk for a given change in market interest rates. The economic value-at-risk may indicate risks associated with longer-term balance sheet items that may not affect net interest income at risk over shorter time periods. Trustmark uses computer-modeling techniques to determine the present value of all asset and liability cash flows (both on- and off-balance sheet), adjusted for prepayment expectations, using a market discount rate. The economic value of equity (EVE), also known as net portfolio value, is defined as the difference between the present value of asset cash flows and the present value of liability cash flows. The resulting change in EVE in different market rate environments, from the base case scenario, is the amount of EVE at risk from those rate environments.

The following table summarizes the effect that various interest rate shifts would have on net portfolio value at March 31, 2024 and 2023.

Estimated % Change<br>in Net Portfolio Value
Change in Interest Rates 2024 2023
+200 basis points -1.9 % -1.7 %
+100 basis points -0.7 % -0.6 %

Trustmark determines the fair value of the MSR using a valuation model administered by a third party that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income. The model incorporates assumptions that market participants use in estimating future net servicing income, including estimates of prepayment speeds, discount rate, default rates, cost to service (including delinquency and foreclosure costs), escrow account earnings, contractual servicing fee income and other ancillary income such as late fees. Management reviews all significant assumptions quarterly. Mortgage loan prepayment speeds, a key assumption in the model, is the annual rate at which borrowers are forecasted to repay their mortgage loan principal. The discount rate used to determine the present value of estimated future net servicing income, another key assumption in the model, is an estimate of the required rate of return investors in the market would require for an asset with similar risk. Both assumptions can, and generally will, change as market conditions and interest rates change.

By way of example, an increase in either the prepayment speed or discount rate assumption will result in a decrease in the fair value of the MSR, while a decrease in either assumption will result in an increase in the fair value of the MSR. In recent years, there have been significant market-driven fluctuations in loan prepayment speeds and discount rates. These fluctuations can be rapid and may continue to be significant. Therefore, estimating prepayment speed and/or discount rates within ranges that market participants would use in determining the fair value of the MSR requires significant management judgment.

At March 31, 2024, the MSR fair value was $138.0 million, compared to $127.2 million at March 31, 2023. The impact on the MSR fair value of a 10% adverse change in prepayment speed or a 100 basis point increase in discount rate at March 31, 2024, would be a decline in fair value of approximately $5.0 million and $5.7 million, respectively, compared to a decline in fair value of approximately $4.5 million and $5.2 million, respectively, at March 31, 2023. Changes of equal magnitude in the opposite direction would produce similar increases in fair value in the respective amounts.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, an evaluation was carried out by Trustmark’s Management, with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer and Treasurer and Principal Financial Officer (Principal Financial Officer), of the effectiveness of Trustmark’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer concluded that Trustmark’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in Trustmark’s internal control over financial reporting during the last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, Trustmark’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Information required in this section is set forth under the heading “Legal Proceedings” of Note 12 – Contingencies in Part I. Item 1 – Financial Statements of this report.

In accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 450-20, “Loss Contingencies,” Trustmark will establish an accrued liability for litigation matters when those matters present loss contingencies that are both probable and reasonably estimable. At the present time, Trustmark believes, based on its evaluation and the advice of legal counsel, that a loss in any such proceeding is not probable and reasonably estimable. All matters will continue to be monitored for further developments that would make such loss contingency both probable and reasonably estimable. In view of the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of legal proceedings, Trustmark cannot predict the eventual outcomes of the currently pending matters or the timing of their ultimate resolution. Trustmark currently believes, however, based upon the advice of legal counsel and Management’s evaluation and after taking into account its current insurance coverage, that the legal proceedings currently pending should not have a material adverse effect on Trustmark’s consolidated financial condition.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

There has been no material change in the risk factors previously disclosed in Trustmark’s 2023 Annual Report.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

This Agreement is subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan. In the event of any inconsistency or conflict between this Award Agreement and the Plan, the Plan shall govern.

WHEREAS, Trustmark maintains the Plan under which the Committee or Board may, among other things, award Restricted Stock Units to such key associates of Trustmark and its Subsidiaries as the Committee or Board may determine, subject to terms, conditions and restrictions as it may deem appropriate; and

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Plan, Trustmark, upon recommendation by the Committee and approval by Trustmark’s Board, grants the Award to you subject to the terms of this Agreement and acceptance by you of this Agreement.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the services and benefits that you will provide to Trustmark and its Subsidiaries and of the covenants contained in this Agreement, the parties hereby agree as follows:

1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Plan, except as otherwise defined in this Agreement.

2. Grant of the Award. Trustmark hereby grants you an Award of the number of Restricted Stock Units set forth on your summary page for restricted stock units on the internet hosting website designated by Trustmark for the Plan, subject to the terms of this Agreement and acceptance by you of this Agreement. This Agreement shall not become legally binding unless you have accepted this Agreement by the Agreement due date noted with respect to the Award on the internet hosting website designated by Trustmark for the Plan (or such later date as the Chairman of the Committee may accept). If you fail to timely accept this Agreement, the Award shall be cancelled and forfeited.

3. Vesting. Your Award shall vest as follows:

(a) General Vesting. Except as otherwise provided in Sections 3(b), 3(c) and 4 below, your Award shall vest on <<vesting date>> (the “Vesting Date”), subject to your employment with Trustmark or one of its Subsidiaries continuously through the Vesting Date.

(b) Qualifying Termination. If a Qualifying Termination (as defined below) occurs prior to the Vesting Date, a Pro-Rata Portion (as defined below) of your Award shall vest based on the number of months you were employed during the period beginning on the Award Date and ending on the date of the Qualifying Termination.

“Pro-Rata Portion” is the amount calculated by multiplying the number of Restricted Stock Units by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of complete calendar months from the Award Date to and including the date of the Qualifying Termination (such numerator not to exceed <<#>>), and the denominator of which is <<#>>. For this purpose, the month containing the Award Date is considered a complete calendar month, and the month containing the date of the Qualifying Termination is not considered a complete calendar month unless the Qualifying Termination is effective as of the last day of the month. Any balance of the Award which does not vest shall be forfeited.

Exhibit 10.ap

“Qualifying Termination” means one of the following events, where there is no Cause for Trustmark to terminate your employment:

i. Termination without Cause not associated with a Change in Control. An involuntary termination of your employment with Trustmark and its Subsidiaries that does not occur within the period beginning on the date on which a Change in Control (as defined in the Plan) occurs and ending on the two (2) year anniversary thereof (such period, the “Change in Control Period”);

ii. Termination for Good Reason not associated with a Change in Control. A termination of your employment with Trustmark and its Subsidiaries at your own initiative for “Good Reason” as defined in your Employment Agreement (but only if you have an Employment Agreement and your Employment Agreement defines “Good Reason”) that does not occur within the Change in Control Period. As used herein, “Employment Agreement” means a written individual employment agreement or change in control agreement as in effect on the Award Date between you and Trustmark or one of its Subsidiaries;

iii. Death. A termination of your employment with Trustmark and its Subsidiaries due to your death; or

iv. Disability. A termination of your employment with Trustmark and its Subsidiaries due to your disability as defined in Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-3(i)(4).

(c) “Vesting Acceleration” means one of the following events, where there is no Cause for Trustmark to terminate your employment:

i. Retirement. Prior to the Vesting Date, in the event of your retirement from employment with Trustmark and its Subsidiaries with the consent of the Committee or its delegate, at or after age sixty-five (65) (your “Retirement”), your Award shall vest as follows, and any balance of the Award which does not vest shall be forfeited:

(1) <<vesting percentage>> Vesting. In the event of your Retirement prior to the <<anniversary>> anniversary of the Award Date, <<vesting percentage>> of all Restricted Stock Units subject to this Award shall vest on the date of your Retirement.

(2) <<vesting percentage>> Vesting. In the event of your Retirement on or after the <<anniversary>> anniversary of the Award Date but prior to the Vesting Date, <<vesting percentage>> of all Restricted Stock Units subject to this Award shall vest on the date of your Retirement.

Exhibit 10.ap

(100%) of all Restricted Stock Units subject to this Award shall vest on the date of your termination.

iii. Termination for Good Reason associated with a Change in Control. In the event of a termination of your employment with Trustmark and its Subsidiaries at your own initiative for “Good Reason” (as defined below) that occurs prior to the Vesting Date and within the Change in Control Period, one hundred percent (100%) of all Restricted Stock Units subject to this Award shall vest on the date of your resignation. As used in this Section 3(c)(iii), “Good Reason” means (A) “Good Reason” as defined in your Employment Agreement (but only if you have an Employment Agreement and your Employment Agreement defines “Good Reason”), or (B) if you do not have an Employment Agreement or your Employment Agreement does not define “Good Reason”, (1) a material diminution in your authority, duties or responsibilities; (2) a material diminution in your base compensation; or (3) any requirement by Trustmark to change your principal location of employment by more than fifty (50) miles. You are required to provide notice to Trustmark of the existence of a condition that may constitute “Good Reason” within a ninety (90) day period of the initial existence of the condition, upon the notice of which Trustmark shall have thirty (30) days to remedy the condition. If the condition is remedied within thirty (30) days, then “Good Reason” does not exist. If the condition is not remedied within thirty (30) days, then you must resign within ninety (90) days of the expiration of the remedy period.

4. Forfeiture.

(a) Cessation of Employment. If you cease to be an employee of Trustmark or its Subsidiaries prior to the Vesting Date and neither Section 3(b) nor Section 3(c) applies, the Restricted Stock Units shall be immediately and automatically forfeited. For this purpose, transfer of employment among Trustmark and its Subsidiaries is not a termination or cessation of employment.

(b) Termination for Cause. If your employment is terminated for Cause before your Restricted Stock Units are settled, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, you shall immediately forfeit all Restricted Stock Units, whether or not vested, and no Shares shall be issued or Dividend Equivalent (as defined below) shall be paid.

5. Voting Rights. The Restricted Stock Units are not shares of stock. Therefore, you and any person claiming under or through you, do not possess any voting or other shareholder rights by reason or receiving Restricted Stock Units pursuant to this Agreement unless and until the Restricted Stock Units are settled in Shares pursuant to Section 8 hereof.

6. Dividend Equivalent. If Trustmark declares and pays a dividend in respect of its Stock and, on the record date for such dividend, you hold Restricted Stock Units granted pursuant to this Agreement, Trustmark shall grant you an unvested right to receive an amount (the “Dividend Equivalent”) equal to the cash dividends you would have received if you were the holder of record, as of such record date, of the number of Shares related to the Restricted Stock Units that you hold as of such record date. Your Dividend Equivalent will vest if, when and to the extent that the related Restricted Stock Units vest and will be paid to you within the Settlement Period (as defined below). No interest

Exhibit 10.ap

will be paid with respect to Dividend Equivalents. If any portion of the Restricted Stock Units are forfeited, your Dividend Equivalent shall also be forfeited in the same proportion.

7. No Right to Continued Employment. You understand and acknowledge that this Agreement does not in any manner affect your status as an Associate “at-will.” As such, this Agreement does not create an express or implied contract for employment with Trustmark or any of its Subsidiaries, for any purpose or term, nor does it in any way limit the right of Trustmark or any of its Subsidiaries to otherwise terminate your employment at any time, with or without cause or notice, or impact the terms set forth in any Associate handbook or policy manual. Trustmark and its Subsidiaries reserve the right to terminate your employment at any time for any reason, with or without notice. Termination of your employment is at the sole option of the management.

8. Settlement. Trustmark shall issue Shares corresponding to vested Restricted Stock Units, net of any applicable withholding, as soon as practicable following vesting but, in any event, no later than thirty (30) days following the date on which the Restricted Stock Units vest (such period, the “Settlement Period”). No fractional Shares shall be issued, and the Committee, in its discretion, shall determine whether any such fractional Shares will be used to satisfy any withholding obligation or whether cash will be issued in lieu of fractional Shares or whether such fractional Shares will be forfeited or otherwise eliminated.

9. No Transfer Rights. Restricted Stock Units may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of decent and distribution or court order or unless otherwise permitted by the Committee on a case-by-case basis.

10. Internal Revenue Code Section 409A. It is intended that this Agreement and the Restricted Stock Units comply with, or are exempt from, the requirements of Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”), and this Agreement and the Plan shall be administered in a manner consistent with the foregoing intent. If this Award is subject to Section 409A and if you are a “specified employee” (within the meaning set forth Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code) as of the date of your separation from service (within the meaning of Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(h)), then the issuance of any Shares or payment of any Dividend Equivalent that would otherwise be made upon the date of your separation from service or within the first six months thereafter will not be made until the first business day after the six (6) month period following the date of your termination (or, if sooner, as soon as reasonably practicable following your death) but if and only if such delay in the issuance of the Shares or payment of the Dividend Equivalent is necessary to avoid the imposition of taxation on you in respect of the Shares or Dividend Equivalent under Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the receipt of any benefits under this Agreement as a result of a termination of service shall require that you undergo a “separation from service” within the meaning of Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(h) or any successor thereto.

11. Taxes.

(a) Withholding. Trustmark (or any of its Subsidiaries) shall have the right to retain and withhold a sufficient number of the Shares resulting from payout of this Award, or require you to remit to Trustmark (or any of its Subsidiaries) an amount sufficient to satisfy any federal, state, local or other tax withholding obligations as may be required by law.

(b) Responsibility for Taxes. You acknowledge that there will be tax consequences with respect to the Award, and you should consult a tax adviser regarding your tax obligations. Regardless of the amount withheld pursuant to Section 11(a), you are solely responsible for paying all required taxes (other than Trustmark’s share of employment taxes) with respect to your Award.

Exhibit 10.ap

12. Compliance with Laws. The grant of the Restricted Stock Units and the issuance of any Shares pursuant to this Agreement shall be subject to, and shall comply with, any applicable requirements of any U.S. securities and other federal laws, rules and regulations and any other law, rule or regulation or exchange requirement applicable thereto. Trustmark reserves the right to impose other requirements on your participation in the Plan, on the Restricted Stock Units and on any Shares acquired under the Plan, to the extent Trustmark determines it is necessary or advisable to comply with applicable law or facilitate the administration of the Plan, and to require you to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Trustmark shall not be obligated to issue any Shares pursuant to this Agreement if the issuance thereof would result in a violation of any law.

13. Clawback. You agree that the Award is subject to recoupment or clawback by Trustmark in accordance with Trustmark’s recoupment, clawback or similar policy as such may be in effect from time to time, as well as any similar provisions of applicable law, or Securities and Exchange Commission rule or regulation, or stock exchange requirement, which could in certain circumstances require repayment or forfeiture of the Award or any Shares or other cash or property received with respect to the Award (including any value received from a disposition of the Shares acquired upon payment of the Award).

14. Business Protection.

(a) Non-Solicitation. During the full term of your employment with Trustmark or any of its Subsidiaries, and for a period of six (6) months after your termination of employment with Trustmark and its Subsidiaries, whether your employment is terminated voluntarily or involuntarily by either you or Trustmark or any of its Subsidiaries, with or without cause or notice, you will not directly or indirectly, either for your own accord or through another party or entity (whether as director, officer, consultant, principal, employee, agent or otherwise), take any action, or attempt any action, in any manner within the “Restricted Area” (as defined below): (i) to solicit or divert, or attempt to solicit or divert, any person, concern or entity which is doing business with Trustmark or any of its Subsidiaries at the time of termination of your employment from doing business with Trustmark or any of its Subsidiaries or otherwise alter its relationship with Trustmark or any of its Subsidiaries; (ii) to induce or attempt to induce any customer or supplier of Trustmark or any of its Subsidiaries to cease being a customer or supplier of Trustmark or any of its Subsidiaries, or otherwise change its relationship with Trustmark or its Subsidiaries; (iii) to disclose, directly or indirectly, to any person, firm or corporation the names or addresses, or any other information pertaining to them, of any customers or clients of Trustmark or any of its Subsidiaries that you serviced or became acquainted during the term of your employment with Trustmark or any of its Subsidiaries; or (iv) to take any other action that is directly or indirectly competitive with Trustmark or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to any customers or clients doing business with Trustmark or any of its Subsidiaries at the time of termination of your employment with Trustmark and its Subsidiaries.

(b) Anti-Raiding. During the full term of your employment with Trustmark and any of its Subsidiaries, and for a period of six (6) months after your termination of employment with Trustmark and its Subsidiaries, whether your employment is terminated voluntarily or involuntarily by either you or Trustmark or any of its Subsidiaries, with or without cause or notice, you will not directly or indirectly, either on your own accord or through another party or entity (whether as director, officer, consultant, principal, employee, agent or otherwise) attempt in any manner within the “Restricted Area” (as defined below) to solicit, employ or otherwise interfere with any of Trustmark’s or its Subsidiaries’ contracts or relationships with any other

Exhibit 10.ap

Associate, officer, director, shareholder or independent contractor, existing at the time of the termination of your employment with Trustmark and its Subsidiaries.

(c) Restricted Area. You understand and agree that the provisions of this Agreement contained in this Section 14 (“Business Protection”), related to your restricted activities cover (i) all geographic locations where you perform or performed work for Trustmark or its Subsidiaries, and the areas extending 75 miles from said location(s), including all location(s) over which you had management or other functional responsibilities, regardless of whether you were physically located at said location, and (ii) all geographic locations where any person, customer, client, concern or entity which is doing business with Trustmark or its Subsidiaries at the time of the termination of your employment resides, exists, operates or does business, as well as the areas extending 75 miles from said location(s).

(d) Consideration. You agree that, in exchange for your continued employment with Trustmark or its Subsidiaries, as well as your eligibility to participate in the Plan and receive this Award, you are bound by the terms and conditions set forth in these restrictive, business protection covenants. You further acknowledge that your obligations within these restrictive, business protection covenants last for the duration of your employment with Trustmark or any of its Subsidiaries, and for a period of six (6) months thereafter, regardless of the vesting and/or forfeiture of the Restricted Stock Units subject to this Award. You also agree that you are bound by the terms of these restrictive covenants after agreeing to their terms initially and acknowledge the fact that you continue to be bound by these restrictive covenants even if you receive any additional awards/grants.

(e) Acknowledgment. You have carefully considered the nature and extent of the restrictions upon you, and the rights and remedies conferred upon Trustmark and its Subsidiaries under this Agreement, and hereby acknowledge and agree that the same: (i) are reasonable in time and geographical scope and are designed to eliminate activities that would otherwise be unfair to Trustmark and its Subsidiaries, in light of the protectable interests of Trustmark, its Subsidiaries and their business operations; (ii) in the event your employment with Trustmark and its Subsidiaries terminates for any reason, will not prevent you from earning a livelihood without violating the above described restrictions; (iii) do not confer a benefit upon Trustmark or its Subsidiaries disproportionate to any detriment to you; and (iv) are fully required to protect Trustmark’s and its Subsidiaries’ legitimate, protectable interests as a leader in the banking and financial services industries involving confidential information including Trustmark’s and its Subsidiaries’ goodwill, relationships, confidential information and other legally recognized protectable interests.

(f) Enforcement of Restrictive Covenants/Relief for Violations. You acknowledge that Trustmark and its Subsidiaries have a protectable interest in enforcing the non-solicitation and anti-raiding provisions of the Agreement for the full length of your employment and for the 6 month term following the termination of your employment. You agree that any violation of any provision of the Agreement will result in immediate, irreparable harm to Trustmark and its Subsidiaries and that money damages alone would not be an adequate remedy for any such violation. In addition to the rights and remedies conveyed in this Agreement, Trustmark and its Subsidiaries shall be entitled, and is expressly and irrevocably authorized by you, to seek specific enforcement and injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction, without posting a bond or other security. This section shall in no manner be construed to limit other causes of action, rights, and relief to which Trustmark or its Subsidiaries may be entitled. You recognize that if Trustmark or any of its Subsidiaries is successful in obtaining any of the requested relief or damages under the terms of this Agreement, you must pay reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses incurred by Trustmark

Exhibit 10.ap

or its Subsidiaries in enforcing and obtaining relief or damages available under this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the rights and remedies of Trustmark and its Subsidiaries, and your obligations under this Agreement, are in addition to any respective rights, remedies and obligations under applicable law (including, but not limited to, laws relating to misappropriation of trade secrets) and under any other agreement between you and Trustmark or any of its Subsidiaries.

Granted <<grant date>>

This Performance Unit Agreement (“Agreement”) between you and Trustmark Corporation, a Mississippi corporation (“Trustmark”), evidences a grant of Performance Units (the “Award”) under the Trustmark Corporation Stock and Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Plan”), as of <<grant date>> (the “Award Date”). This Agreement is subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan. In the event of any inconsistency or conflict between this Award Agreement and the Plan, the Plan shall govern.

WHEREAS, Trustmark maintains the Plan under which the Committee or Board may, among other things, award Performance Units to such key associates of Trustmark and its Subsidiaries as the Committee or Board may determine, subject to terms, conditions and restrictions as it may deem appropriate; and

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Plan, Trustmark, upon recommendation by the Committee and approval by Trustmark’s Board, grants the Award to you subject to the terms of this Agreement and acceptance by you of this Agreement.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the services and benefits that you will provide to Trustmark and its Subsidiaries and of the covenants contained in this Agreement, the parties hereby agree as follows:

1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Plan, except as otherwise defined in this Agreement (including EXHIBIT B.

3. Vesting. Your Award shall vest as follows:

(a) General Vesting. Except as otherwise provided in Sections 3(b), 3(c) and 4 below, if you remain continuously employed throughout the period from <<beginning of measurement period>> through <<end of measurement period>> (the “Performance Period”), your Award shall vest as of the last day of the Performance Period to the extent that the Performance Goals as set forth on EXHIBIT A are achieved, and any balance of the Award which does not vest shall be forfeited.

(b) Qualifying Termination. If a Qualifying Termination (as defined below) occurs after <<date>>, but prior to the last day of the Performance Period, you will retain a Pro-Rata Portion (as defined below) of your Performance Units and have the potential to earn a Pro-Rata Portion of your Achievement Units, in each case based on the number of months you were employed during the Performance Period before the Qualifying Termination.

The “Pro-Rata Portion” is the amount calculated by multiplying the number of Performance Units by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of complete calendar months from the beginning of the Performance Period to and including the date of the Qualifying Termination (such numerator not to exceed <<#>>), and the denominator of which is <<#>>. Any portion of the Award in excess of the Pro-Rata Portion shall be forfeited as of the date of the Qualifying Termination.

Exhibit 10.aq

The Pro-Rata Portion shall not vest as of the date of the Qualifying Termination, but shall instead vest at of the end of the Performance Period only to the extent that the Performance Goals are achieved at the end of the Performance Period as set forth in EXHIBIT A. Any balance of the Pro-Rata Portion that does not vest at the end of the Performance Period shall be forfeited as of the end of the Performance Period.

As used in this Section 3(b)(iii), “Good Reason” means “Good Reason” as defined in your Employment Agreement (but only if you have an Employment Agreement and your Employment Agreement defines “Good Reason”). As used herein, “Employment Agreement” means a written individual employment agreement or change in control agreement as in effect on the Award Date between you and Trustmark or one of its Subsidiaries. If you do not have an Employment Agreement or your Employment Agreement does not define “Good Reason”, this Section 3(b)(iii) shall not apply;

iv. Termination for Good Reason associated with a Change in Control. A termination of your employment with Trustmark and its Subsidiaries at your own initiative for Good Reason (as defined in this Section 3(b)(iv)) that occurs within the period beginning on the date on which a Change in Control (as defined in the Plan) occurs and ending on the two (2) year anniversary thereof. As used in this Section 3(b)(iv), “Good Reason” means (A) “Good Reason” as defined in your Employment Agreement (but only if you have an Employment Agreement and your Employment Agreement defines “Good Reason”), or (B) if you do not have an Employment Agreement or your Employment Agreement does not define “Good Reason”, any of the following: (1) a material diminution in your authority, duties or responsibilities; (2) a material diminution in your base compensation; or (3) any requirement by Trustmark to change your principal location of employment by more than fifty (50) miles. You are required to provide notice to Trustmark of the existence of a condition that may constitute “Good Reason” within a ninety (90) day period of the initial existence of the condition, upon the notice of which Trustmark shall have thirty (30) days to remedy the condition. If the condition is remedied within thirty (30) days, then “Good Reason” does not exist. If the condition is not remedied within thirty (30) days, then you must resign within ninety (90) days of the expiration of the remedy period.

If a Vesting Acceleration Event (as defined below) occurs after a Qualifying Termination and before the end of the Performance Period, the Pro-Rata Portion will immediately vest. The Performance Period is shortened as of the end of the calendar quarter ending on or before the Vesting Acceleration Event to the extent that the

Exhibit 10.aq

Performance Goals are achieved as set forth in EXHIBIT A. Any balance of the Pro-Rata Portion that does not vest upon the Vesting Acceleration Event shall be forfeited as of the date of such event.

(c) Vesting Acceleration Event. If a Vesting Acceleration Event occurs after <<date>>, but prior to the last day of the Performance Period, and if you have not previously forfeited your Award under Section 4 below, a Pro-Rata Portion of your Award will be eligible for vesting based on the number of months you were employed during the Performance Period before the Vesting Acceleration Event.

The Pro-Rata Portion is calculated by multiplying the number of Performance Units by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of complete calendar months from the beginning of the Performance Period to and including the date of the Vesting Acceleration Event (such numerator not to exceed <<#>>), and the denominator of which is <<#>>.

The Pro-Rata Portion of your award will vest as of the Vesting Acceleration Event. The Performance Period is shortened as of the end of the calendar quarter ending on or before the Vesting Acceleration Event to the extent that the Performance Goals are achieved as set forth in EXHIBIT A. Any balance of the Pro-Rata Portion that does not vest upon the Vesting Acceleration Event shall be forfeited as of the date of such event. Any balance of your Award that does not vest at the end of the Performance Period shall be forfeited as of the end of the Performance Period.

“Vesting Acceleration Event” means one of the following events, where there is no Cause for Trustmark to terminate your employment:

i. Death. A termination of your employment with Trustmark and its Subsidiaries due to your death; or

ii. “Disability”. A termination of your employment with Trustmark and its Subsidiaries due to your disability as defined in Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-3(i)(4).

4. Forfeiture.

(a) Cessation of Employment. If your employment terminates during the Performance Period and neither Section 3(b) nor Section 3(c) applies, the Performance Units and Achievement Units shall be immediately and automatically forfeited as of the date you cease to be an employee of Trustmark or its Subsidiaries. For this purpose, transfer of employment among Trustmark and its Subsidiaries is not a termination or cessation of employment.

(b) Termination for Cause. If your employment is terminated for Cause before your Performance Units or Achievement Units are settled, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, you shall immediately forfeit all Performance Units and Achievement Units, whether or not vested, and no Shares shall be issued or Dividend Equivalent (as defined below) shall be paid.

5. Voting Rights. Neither the Performance Units nor the Achievement Units are shares of stock. Therefore, you, and any person claiming under or through you, do not possess any voting or other shareholder rights by reason or receiving Performance Units or Achievement Units pursuant to this Agreement unless and until the Performance Units or Achievement Units are settled in Shares pursuant to Section 8 hereof.

6. Dividend Equivalent. If Trustmark declares and pays a dividend in respect of its Stock and, on the record date for such dividend, you hold Performance Units granted pursuant to this Agreement,

Exhibit 10.aq

Trustmark shall grant you an unvested right to receive an amount (the “Dividend Equivalent”) equal to the cash dividends you would have received if you were the holder of record, as of such record date, of the number of Shares related to the Performance Units that you hold as of such record date. Your Dividend Equivalent will vest if, when, and to the extent that the related Performance Units vest and will be paid to you during the Settlement Period (as defined below). No interest will be paid with respect to Dividend Equivalents. If any portion of the Performance Units are forfeited, your Dividend Equivalent shall also be forfeited in the same proportion. No dividends equivalents or other distributions shall be paid with respect to the Achievement Units. Dividends and other distributions shall only be paid with respect to the Shares underlying the Achievement Units if and when the Achievement Units are settled in Shares.

7. At-Will Employment Acknowledgment. You understand and acknowledge that this Agreement does not in any manner affect your status as an Associate “at-will.” As such, this Agreement does not create an express or implied contract for employment with Trustmark or any of its Subsidiaries, for any purpose or term, nor does it in any way limit the right of Trustmark or any of its Subsidiaries to otherwise terminate your employment at any time, with or without cause or notice, or impact the terms set forth in any Associate handbook or policy manual. Trustmark and its Subsidiaries reserve the right to terminate your employment at any time for any reason, with or without notice. Termination of your employment is at the sole option of the management.

8. Settlement. All determinations of performance shall be made and certified to in writing by the Committee. Trustmark shall issue Shares corresponding to vested Performance Units and vested Achievement Units, in each case net of any applicable withholding, within 2-1/2 months following end of the Performance Period, or, if applicable, a Vesting Acceleration Event (such time period, the “Settlement Period”). No fractional Shares shall be issued, and the Committee, in its discretion, shall determine whether any such fractional Shares will be used to satisfy any withholding obligation or whether cash will be issued in lieu of fractional Shares or whether such fractional Shares will be forfeited or otherwise eliminated.

9. No Transfer Rights. Neither Performance Units nor Achievement Units may be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of decent and distribution or court order or unless otherwise permitted by the Committee on a case-by-case basis.

10. Internal Revenue Code Section 409A. It is intended that this Agreement, the Performance Units and the Achievement Units comply with, or are exempt from, the requirements of Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”), and this Agreement and the Plan shall be administered in a manner consistent with the foregoing intent.

11. Taxes.

(a) Withholding. Trustmark (or any of its Subsidiaries) shall have the right to retain and withhold a sufficient number of the Shares resulting from payout of this Award, or require you to remit to Trustmark (or any of its Subsidiaries) an amount sufficient to satisfy any federal, state, local or other tax withholding obligations as may be required by law.

(b) Responsibility for Taxes. You acknowledge that there will be tax consequences with respect to the Award, and you should consult a tax adviser regarding your tax obligations. Regardless of the amount withheld pursuant to Section 11(a), you are solely responsible for paying all required taxes (other than Trustmark’s share of employment taxes) with respect to your Award.

12. Compliance with Laws. The grant of the Performance Units and the Achievement Units and the issuance of any Shares pursuant to this Agreement shall be subject to, and shall comply with, any applicable requirements of any U.S. securities and other federal laws, rules and regulations and any

Exhibit 10.aq

other law, rule or regulation or exchange requirement applicable thereto. Trustmark reserves the right to impose other requirements on your participation in the Plan, on the Performance Units and the Achievement Units and on any Shares acquired under the Plan, to the extent Trustmark determines it is necessary or advisable to comply with applicable law or facilitate the administration of the Plan, and to require you to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Trustmark shall not be obligated to issue any Shares pursuant to this Agreement if the issuance thereof would result in a violation of any law.

13. Clawback. You agree that the Award is subject to recoupment or clawback by Trustmark in accordance with Trustmark’s recoupment, clawback or similar policy as such may be in effect from time to time, as well as any similar provisions of applicable law, or Securities and Exchange Commission rule or regulation, or stock exchange requirement, which could in certain circumstances require repayment or forfeiture of the Award or any Shares or other cash or property received with respect to the Award (including any value received from a disposition of the Shares acquired upon payment of the Award).

14. Business Protection.

(a) Non-Solicitation. During the full term of your employment with Trustmark or any of its Subsidiaries, and for a period of six (6) months after your termination of employment with Trustmark and its Subsidiaries, whether your employment is terminated voluntarily or involuntarily by either you or Trustmark or any of its Subsidiaries, with or without cause or notice, you will not directly or indirectly, either for your own accord or through another party or entity (whether as director, officer, consultant, principal, employee, agent or otherwise), take any action, or attempt any action, in any manner within the “Restricted Area” (as defined below): (i) to solicit or divert, or attempt to solicit or divert, any person, concern or entity which is doing business with Trustmark or any of its Subsidiaries at the time of termination of your employment from doing business with Trustmark or any of its Subsidiaries or otherwise alter its relationship with Trustmark or any of its Subsidiaries; (ii) to induce or attempt to induce any customer or supplier of Trustmark or any of its Subsidiaries to cease being a customer or supplier of Trustmark or any of its Subsidiaries, or otherwise change its relationship with Trustmark or its Subsidiaries; (iii) to disclose, directly or indirectly, to any person, firm or corporation the names or addresses, or any other information pertaining to them, of any customers or clients of Trustmark or any of its Subsidiaries that you serviced or became acquainted during the term of your employment with Trustmark or any of its Subsidiaries; or (iv) to take any other action that is directly or indirectly competitive with Trustmark or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to any customers or clients doing business with Trustmark or any of its Subsidiaries at the time of termination of your employment with Trustmark and its Subsidiaries.

(b) Anti-Raiding. During the full term of your employment with Trustmark and any of its Subsidiaries, and for a period of six (6) months after your termination of employment with Trustmark and its Subsidiaries, whether your employment is terminated voluntarily or involuntarily by either you or Trustmark or any of its Subsidiaries, with or without cause or notice, you will not directly or indirectly, either on your own accord or through another party or entity (whether as director, officer, consultant, principal, employee, agent or otherwise) attempt in any manner within the “Restricted Area” (as defined below) to solicit, employ or otherwise interfere with any of Trustmark’s or its Subsidiaries’ contracts or relationships with any other Associate, officer, director, shareholder or independent contractor, existing at the time of the termination of your employment with Trustmark and its Subsidiaries.

(c) Restricted Area. You understand and agree that the provisions of this Agreement contained in this Section 14 (“Business Protection”), related to your restricted

Exhibit 10.aq

activities cover (i) all geographic locations where you perform or performed work for Trustmark or its Subsidiaries, and the areas extending 75 miles from said location(s), including all location(s) over which you had management or other functional responsibilities, regardless of whether you were physically located at said location, and (ii) all geographic locations where any person, customer, client, concern or entity which is doing business with Trustmark or its Subsidiaries at the time of the termination of your employment resides, exists, operates or does business, as well as the areas extending 75 miles from said location(s).

(d) Consideration. You agree that, in exchange for your continued employment with Trustmark or its Subsidiaries, as well as your eligibility to participate in the Plan and receive this Award, you are bound by the terms and conditions set forth in these restrictive, business protection covenants. You further acknowledge that your obligations within these restrictive, business protection covenants last for the duration of your employment with Trustmark or any of its Subsidiaries, and for a period of six (6) months thereafter, regardless of the vesting and/or forfeiture of the Restricted Stock Units subject to this Award. You also agree that you are bound by the terms of these restrictive covenants after agreeing to their terms initially and acknowledge the fact that you continue to be bound by these restrictive covenants even if you receive any additional awards/grants.

(e) Acknowledgment. You have carefully considered the nature and extent of the restrictions upon you, and the rights and remedies conferred upon Trustmark and its Subsidiaries under this Agreement, and hereby acknowledge and agree that the same: (i) are reasonable in time and geographical scope and are designed to eliminate activities that would otherwise be unfair to Trustmark and its Subsidiaries, in light of the protectable interests of Trustmark, its Subsidiaries and their business operations; (ii) in the event your employment with Trustmark and its Subsidiaries terminates for any reason, will not prevent you from earning a livelihood without violating the above described restrictions; (iii) do not confer a benefit upon Trustmark or its Subsidiaries disproportionate to any detriment to you; and (iv) are fully required to protect Trustmark’s and its Subsidiaries’ legitimate, protectable interests as a leader in the banking and financial services industries involving confidential information including Trustmark’s and its Subsidiaries’ goodwill, relationships, confidential information and other legally recognized protectable interests.

(f) Enforcement of Restrictive Covenants/Relief for Violations. You acknowledge that Trustmark and its Subsidiaries have a protectable interest in enforcing the non-solicitation and anti-raiding provisions of the Agreement for the full length of your employment and for the 6 month term following the termination of your employment. You agree that any violation of any provision of the Agreement will result in immediate, irreparable harm to Trustmark and its Subsidiaries and that money damages alone would not be an adequate remedy for any such violation. In addition to the rights and remedies conveyed in this Agreement, Trustmark and its Subsidiaries shall be entitled, and is expressly and irrevocably authorized by you, to seek specific enforcement and injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction, without posting a bond or other security. This section shall in no manner be construed to limit other causes of action, rights, and relief to which Trustmark or its Subsidiaries may be entitled. You recognize that if Trustmark or any of its Subsidiaries is successful in obtaining any of the requested relief or damages under the terms of this Agreement, you must pay reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses incurred by Trustmark or its Subsidiaries in enforcing and obtaining relief or damages available under this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the rights and remedies of Trustmark and its Subsidiaries, and your obligations under this Agreement, are in addition to any respective rights, remedies and obligations under applicable law (including, but not limited to, laws relating to misappropriation of trade secrets) and under any other agreement between you and Trustmark or any of its Subsidiaries.

Exhibit 10.aq

EXHIBIT A Performance Goals

16. Generally. Vesting of the Award shall be determined by (i) the average of Trustmark’s ROATCE for each calendar year in the Performance Period compared to the target ROATCE (“Target”) determined by the <<year>> three-year Strategic Plan approved by Trustmark’s Executive Committee of the Board and recommended to, and approved by, Trustmark’s Board; and (ii) Trustmark’s TSR ranking for the Performance Period compared to the TSR for the Peer Group over the same period as follows, where vesting in the Award is equal to the number of the Restricted Stock Units multiplied by the sum of the vesting percentage in (A) and the vesting percentage in (B) below:

ROATCE<br>Performance (A)<br>ROATCE<br>Vesting Percentage TSR<br>Ranking (B)<br>TSR<br>Vesting Percentage
<<%>> of Target 100% + <<rank>> Percentile 100%
<<%>> of Target 88% + <<rank>> Percentile 90%
<<%>> of Target 75% + <<rank>> Percentile 70%
<<%>> of Target 50% + <<rank>> Percentile 50%
<<%>> of Target 38% + <<rank>> Percentile 32.5%
<<%>> of Target 31% + <<rank>> Percentile 22.5%
<<%>> of Target 25% + <<rank>> Percentile 17.5%
Less than <<%>> of Target 0% + Less than <<rank>> 0%

17. Interpolation. If Trustmark’s performance or ranking, as applicable, is above the threshold (<<%>> of Target for ROATCE or above <<rank>> percentile for TSR), but less than the maximum (<<%>> of Target for ROATCE or <<rank>> percentile for TSR), then the vesting percentage shall be determined by straight line interpolation (rounded, where not otherwise resulting in a whole or half percent, to the next lowest whole or half percent) where the performance or ranking falls between identified tiers (for example, if the TSR ranking is in the <<rank>> percentile, then the vesting percentage is <<%>>).

18. Vesting and Settlement. If the aggregate vesting is 100% or lower, only Performance Units shall vest and be settled in accordance with Section 8 of this Agreement. If the aggregate vesting exceeds 100%, Achievement Units shall also vest and be settled in accordance with Section 8 of this Agreement.

19. Shortened Performance Period. The period of time from the beginning of the Performance Period to the calendar quarter ending on or before the Vesting Acceleration Event shall be referred to as the “Shortened Performance Period”. Performance Goals under a Shortened Performance Period shall be determined by (i) the average of Trustmark’s ROATCE for each calendar quarter in the Shortened Performance Period compared to the Target ROATCE; and (ii) Trustmark’s TSR ranking for the Performance Period compared to the TSR for the Peer Group over the same period, where vesting in the Award is equal to the Pro-Rata Portion multiplied by the sum of the vesting percentage in (A) and the vesting percentage in (B) in the table above.

EXHIBIT B Definitions

The following terms have the following meanings for purposes of this Agreement:

(a) “Peer Group” means the financial institutions listed on EXHIBIT C to this Agreement; provided that any listed financial institution shall be eliminated if it is acquired or otherwise changes its structure or business such that it is no longer reasonably comparable to Trustmark (as determined by the Committee), and in the case of any such elimination, the Committee may or may not replace

Exhibit 10.aq

the eliminated financial institution with another financial institution which it considers reasonably comparable to Trustmark.

(b) “ROATCE” means the net earnings after taxes available to common shareholders, adjusted for tax-affected amortization of intangibles, for the calendar year (except as otherwise provided in EXHIBIT A) divided by average shareholders’ tangible common equity for such calendar year (which is total shareholders’ equity, excluding total identifiable intangible assets, goodwill, and preferred equity, averaged for the calendar year), all as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and as reported in Trustmark’s financial statements provided to shareholders (excluding the impact of (i) restructurings, discontinued operations, extraordinary items, and other significant non-routine transactions, (ii) material litigation or insurance settlements, (iii) changes to comply with the new lease accounting standard (ASU 2016-02), (iv) changes to comply with the new credit losses accounting standard (ASU 2016-13), and (v) the cumulative effects of income tax or accounting changes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

(c) “TSR” means the return a holder of common stock earns over a specified period of time, expressed as a percentage and including changes in Average Market Value of, and dividends or other distributions with respect to, the stock and converted to an annual rate by dividing the calculated percentage for the specified period by the number of years and partial years (expressed in quarters) in the specified period. TSR return shall be determined as the sum of (i) the Ending Average Market Value reduced by the Beginning Average Market Value and (ii) dividends or other distributions with respect to a share paid during the specified period and with such dividends and other distributions deemed reinvested in Stock (based on Market Share Price on the date of payment where not paid in Stock), and (iii) with such sum being divided by the Beginning Average Market Value. TSR, including the value of reinvested dividends and other distributions, shall be determined on the basis of the appropriate total shareholder return model of Bloomberg L.P. or any affiliate thereof or such other authoritative source as the Committee may determine. For purposes hereof:

(1) “Average Market Value” means the average of the closing sale price of such stock for the applicable ten trading days beginning or ending on a specified date for which such closing sale price is reported by Bloomberg L.P. or any affiliate thereof or such other authoritative source as the Committee may determine.

(2) “Beginning Average Market Value” means the Average Market Value based on the first ten trading days of the Performance Period.

(3) “Ending Average Market Value” means the Average Market Value based on the last ten trading days of the Performance Period.
