| Item 2.02. | Results of Operations and Financial Condition. |
This Current Report on Form 8-K is being furnished to disclose the press release issued by Pinnacle Financial Partners, Inc., a Tennessee corporation (the “Company”), on July 20, 2010. The press release, which is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto pursuant to Item 2.02 of Form 8-K, announced the Company’s results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010.
The press release furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 contains certain non-GAAP performance measures and ratios for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2009. The non-GAAP performance measures and ratios presented exclude the impact of goodwill and core deposit intangibles associated with the Company’s acquisition of Mid-America Bancshares, Inc. and Cavalry Bancorp, Inc., which the Company acquired on November 30, 2007 and March 15, 2006, respectively, and the preferred stock issued to the U.S. Department of the Treasury under the Capital Purchase Program of the Troubled Asset Relief Program.
The press release also contains, for the fiscal quarters ended June 30, 2009 and June 30, 2010, non-GAAP noninterest income excluding the benefits associated with the net gain on the sale of investment securities for the quarters ended June 30, 2009 and 2010.
The presentation of this non-GAAP financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for any measure prepared in accordance with GAAP. Because non-GAAP financial measures presented in the press release are not measurements determined in accordance with GAAP and are susceptible to varying calculations, these non-GAAP financial measures, as presented, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures presented by other companies.
The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures facilitate making period-to-period comparisons and are meaningful indications of its operating performance. In addition, because intangible assets such as goodwill and the core deposit intangible and the net gain on sale of investment securities each vary extensively from company to company, the Company believes that the presentation of this information allows investors to more easily compare the Company’s results to the results of other companies.
The Company’s management utilizes this non-GAAP financial information to compare the Company’s operating performance in 2010 versus the comparable periods in 2009 and to internally prepared projections.
