Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The consolidated financial statements include the financial results of MidSouth Bank and its wholly-owned subsidiary, MSB Services, Inc. (collectively, “the Bank”). All intercompany accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.
In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) and disclosures necessary to summarize fairly the financial position of the Bank as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 and the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, comprehensive earnings (loss) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 and changes in cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. The interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013 included in this prospectus. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the complete fiscal year.
Certain reclassifications have been made to 2013 financial information to conform to the 2014 presentation. In November 2013, the Bank entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization and Bank Merger (the “Agreement”) with Franklin Financial Network, Inc. (“FFN”) and Franklin Synergy Bank (the “Bank”). The acquisition was announced on November 20, 2013. The acquisition was consummated effective July 1, 2014. At that time, the Bank was merged with the Bank and became part of the FFN holding company.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our accounting and reporting policies are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America as defined by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board and conform to general practices accepted within the banking industry. Our most significant accounting policies are presented in the Bank’s December 31, 2013 Form 10-K and the notes to the audited consolidated financial statements contained therein. Certain accounting policies require management to make significant estimates and assumptions that have a material effect on the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities, and we consider these to be critical accounting policies. The estimates and assumptions used are based on historical experience and other factors that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ significantly from these estimates and assumptions, which could have a material impact on the carrying value of assets and liabilities at the balance sheet dates and on our results of operations for the reporting periods.

The provision for loan losses represents a charge to earnings necessary, after loan charge-offs and recoveries, to maintain the allowance for loan losses at an appropriate level which is adequate to absorb estimated losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Such estimated losses arise primarily from the loan portfolio but may also result from other sources, including commitments to extend credit and letters of credit. The level of the allowance is determined on a monthly basis using procedures which include: (1) categorizing commercial and commercial real estate loans into risk categories to estimate loss probabilities based primarily on the historical loss experience of those risk categories and current economic conditions; (2) analyzing significant commercial and commercial real estate credits and calculating specific reserves as necessary; (3) assessing various homogeneous consumer loan categories to estimate loss probabilities based primarily on historical loss experience; and (4) considering various other factors, such as changes in credit concentrations, loan mix, and economic conditions which may not be specifically quantified in the loan analysis process.
There was $350 in provision for loan losses recorded for the first six months of 2014, and no provision for loss losses was recorded for the first six months of 2013. Management’s calculation of the Bank’s allowance for loan losses shows the Bank’s allowance as being adequate, and management believes it has properly identified and handled deteriorating relationships during the past year. While troubled loan relationships continue to exist, the amount of troubled loans in the portfolio has continued to decrease. The Bank’s volume of recoveries has also reduced the need for additional loan loss provisions up until the second quarter of 2014, when the Bank’s loan growth and the change in the status of one significant loan relationship required management to record a provision.
There was $350 in loan loss provisions recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2014, and no provisions were recorded for the same period in 2013. As previously stated above, the calculation of the Bank’s allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2014 shows the Bank’s allowance as being adequate after recording $350 of provisions during the second quarter of 2014.
The allowance for loan losses consists of an allocated portion and an unallocated, or general, portion. The allocated portion is maintained to cover estimated losses applicable to specific relationships in the loan portfolio. The unallocated portion is maintained to absorb losses which probably exist as of the evaluation date but are not identified by the more objective processes used for the allocated portion of the allowance due to risk of errors or imprecision. While the total allowance consists of an allocated portion and an unallocated portion, these terms are primarily used to describe a process. Both portions of the allowance are available to provide for inherent loss in the entire portfolio.
The allowance for loan losses is increased by provisions for loan losses charged to expense and is reduced by loans charged off net of recoveries on loans previously charged off. The provision is based on management’s determination of the amount of the allowance necessary to provide for estimated loan losses based on its evaluation of the loan portfolio. Determining the appropriate level of the allowance and the amount of the provision involves uncertainties and matters of judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. At June 30, 2014 and at December 31, 2013, the allowance represented 1.72% and 1.64% of total loans, respectively.
Stock Option Arrangement
In October, 2004, the shareholders of the Bank approved the MidSouth Bank 2004 Stock Option Arrangement (the “Arrangement”). The Arrangement provides for the granting of stock options, and authorized the issuance of common stock upon the exercise of such options, for up to 380,000 shares of common stock to employees and organizers of the Bank and up to 143,080 shares of common stock for future use as decided by the

Directors of the Bank. Under the Arrangement, stock option awards were granted in the form of incentive stock options or non-statutory stock options, and were generally exercisable for up to ten years following the date such option awards are granted. Exercise prices of incentive stock options must be equal to or greater than 100% of the fair market value of the common stock on the grant date and generally vest at the end of four years. Certain option awards provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change in control (as defined in the Arrangement).
During 2012, the Board of Directors of MidSouth Bank evaluated the Bank’s financial improvement since 2009, and to reward and incent the Bank’s personnel and directors for the progress made by the Bank during the recessionary period, the Board elected to modify the exercise price of the options that were outstanding at November 30, 2012 to $3.65 per share. This was done through the issuance of amendments to the original stock option agreements, and the value was based upon a valuation of the Bank’s stock that was conducted by an independent third party located outside the Bank’s local market. As of November 30, 2012, 334,800 stock options were repriced.
In addition to modifying the exercise price of the options, the outstanding options became non-qualifying stock options, and a new vesting schedule was established for the options. The new vesting schedule was established as 20% vesting each year on December 31, with the first vesting occurring on December 31, 2012 and the vesting period extending through December 31, 2016. The expiration date of the options was also modified to December 31, 2032.
As of June 30, 2014, 495,000 options had been granted of which 41,700 have been exercised and 131,000 have been forfeited. Options that are forfeited revert to the Arrangement and can be granted again in the future. As of June 30, 2014, 128,920 options were exercisable. The weighted average exercise prices for both outstanding and exercisable stock options as of June 30, 2014 were $3.65. The weighted average remaining contractual terms of outstanding and exercisable stock options as of June 30, 2014 were both 18.5 years. There was no intrinsic value of stock options exercised at June 30, 2014, since no options were exercised during the period. As of June 30, 2014, there were total no unrecognized compensation costs related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the Arrangement due to immediate vesting of stock options related to the Bank’s impending acquisition by Franklin Synergy Bank effective July 1, 2014. Compensation expense related to stock options totaled $37 and $6 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Compensation expense related to stock options totaled $34 and $3 for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Preferred Stock
On December 31, 2009, the Bank initiated an offering of shares of non-cumulative convertible Series 2009A Preferred Stock. The sales of this series of preferred stock resulted in the issuance of 1,024,728 shares of Series 2009A Preferred Stock, which amounted to additional capital of $4,983, net of stock issuance costs. The liquidation preference for the Series 2009A Preferred Stock is $5.00 per share, and this series of preferred stock is non-redeemable. Each share of Series 2009A Preferred Stock is convertible into two shares of the Bank’s common stock by the shareholder at any time, but if not converted voluntarily by the shareholder, each share of this preferred stock will automatically convert into two shares of the Bank’s common stock on March 31, 2015, subject to certain limitations. To date, 7,171 shares of Series 2009A Preferred Stock has been converted into 14,342 shares of common stock. There were 1,017,557 shares of Series 2009A Preferred Stock outstanding as of June 30, 2014.
Additionally, anyone who purchased the Series 2009A Preferred Stock received one detachable warrant to purchase one share of the Bank’s common stock for every five shares of the Series 2009A Preferred Stock that they purchased. These detachable warrants and their related terms are discussed further below.

Fair Value Measurements and Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Bank measures fair value in accordance with ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” which establishes a fair value hierarchy and requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
| | |
Level 1: | | Quoted prices (unadjusted) or identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date. |
| |
Level 2: | | Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. |
| |
Level 3: | | Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. |

Impaired loan balances in the table above represent those collateral-dependent loans where management has estimated the credit loss by comparing the loans’ carrying values against the expected realized fair values of the collateral securing those loans. Impaired loans, which are measured for impairment using the fair value of the collateral for collateral dependent loans, had carrying amounts of $7,220 and $4,731 as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, with valuation allowances of $842 and $312 as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.
Loans held for sale, which are carried at the lower of cost or fair value, did not have an impairment charge for the first six months of 2014 or for the year ended December 31, 2013.
Non-Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured on a Non-Recurring Basis

Foreclosed assets | | $ | 800 | | | $ | — | | | $ | — | | | $ | 800 | |
Foreclosed assets are valued at the time the loan is foreclosed upon, and the asset is transferred to foreclosed assets. The value is based primarily on third party appraisals, less costs to sell. The appraisals are generally discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of valuation, and/or management’s expertise and knowledge of the customer and the customer’s business. Such discounts are typically significant and result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Foreclosed assets are reviewed and evaluated on at least an annual basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly, based on the same factors identified above. Foreclosed assets had a carrying amount of $1,200 with a valuation allowance of $400 at June 30, 2014 and at December 31, 2013.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair value estimates, methods, and assumptions are set forth below for the Bank’s financial instruments.
Cash and short-term investments
For those short-term instruments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.
Certificates of Deposit at Other Financial Institutions
Fair values for certificates of deposit at other financial institutions are estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis that applies interest currently being offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregated contractual maturities on such instruments.
Restricted Equity Securities
The carrying amount for these securities is a reasonable estimate of their fair value.
Securities
The carrying amounts for short-term securities approximate fair value because they mature in 90 days or less and do not present unanticipated credit concerns. The fair value of longer-term securities and mortgage-backed securities, except certain state and municipal securities, is estimated based on bid prices published in financial newspapers or bid quotations received from securities dealers. The fair value of certain state and municipal securities is not readily available through market sources other than dealer quotations, so fair value estimates are based on quoted market prices of similar instruments, adjusted for differences between the quoted instruments and the instruments being valued.
Fair values should be calculated based on the value of one unit without regard to any premium or discount that may result from concentrations of ownership of a financial instrument, possible tax ramifications, or estimated transaction costs. Accordingly, these considerations have not been incorporated into the fair value estimates.

MIDSOUTH BANK
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
Loans
Fair values are estimated for portfolios of loans with similar financial characteristics. Loans are segregated by type such as commercial, mortgage and other consumer. Each loan category is further segmented into fixed and adjustable rate interest terms.
The fair value of the various categories of loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining average estimated maturities.
The estimated maturity for mortgages is modified from the contractual terms to give consideration to management’s experience with prepayments. Management has made estimates of fair value discount rates that it believes to be reasonable. However, because there is no market for many of these financial instruments, management has no basis to determine whether the fair value presented below would be indicative of the value negotiated in an actual sale.
The value of the loan portfolio is also discounted in consideration of the credit quality of the loan portfolio as would be the case between willing buyers and sellers. Particular emphasis has been given to loans on the Bank’s internal watch list. Valuation of these loans is based upon borrower performance, collateral values (including external appraisals), and on comparable objective information and subjective internal assessments.
Loans Held for Sale
These instruments are carried in the consolidated balance sheets at the lower of cost or market value. The fair values of these instruments are based on subsequent liquidation values of the instruments which did not result in any significant gains or losses.
Deposit Liabilities
The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts and certain money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. The fair value estimates for deposits does not include the benefit that results from the low cost funding provided by the deposit liabilities compared to the cost of borrowing funds in the market.
Advances from FHLB
Short-Term Advances
The carrying amounts of short-term advances approximate fair value as they mature within 90 days.
Securities Sold Under Agreement to Repurchase
The carrying amounts approximate fair values as repurchase agreements are overnight instruments.

Commitments to Extend Credit, Standby Letters of Credit and Financial Guarantees Written
Loan commitments are made to customers generally for a period not to exceed one year and at the prevailing interest rates in effect at the time the loan is closed. Commitments to extend credit related to construction loans are made for a period not to exceed one year with interest rates at the current market rate at the date of closing. In addition, standby letters of credit are issued for periods extending from one to two years with rates to be determined at the date the letter of credit is funded. Fees are only charged for the construction loans and the standby letters of credit and the amounts unearned at June 30, 2014, are insignificant. Accordingly, these commitments have no carrying value and management estimates the commitments to have no significant fair value.
The carrying values and estimated fair values of the Bank’s financial instruments at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 are as follows:

Limitations
Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instruments. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Bank’s entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Bank’s financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.
Estimated fair values are consistent with an exit-price concept. The assumptions used are intended to approximate those that a market-participant would realize in a hypothetical orderly transaction.
Fair value estimates are based on estimating on-and-off-balance sheet financial instruments without attempting to estimate the value of anticipated future business and the value of assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments. Other significant assets and liabilities that are not considered financial assets or liabilities include deferred tax assets and liabilities and property, plant and equipment. In addition, the tax ramifications related to the realization of the unrealized gains and losses can have a significant effect on fair value estimates and have not been considered in the estimates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued ASU No. 2014-04, “Receivables—Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40): Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure.” The objective of this guidance is to clarify when an in substance repossession or foreclosure occurs, that is, when a creditor should be considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan such that the loan receivable should be derecognized and the real estate property recognized. ASU No. 2014-04 states that an in substance repossession or foreclosure occurs, and a creditor is considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan, upon either (1) the creditor obtaining legal title to the residential real estate property upon completion of a foreclosure or (2) the borrower conveying all interest in the residential real estate property to the creditor to satisfy that loan through completion of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or through a similar legal agreement. Additionally, ASU No. 2014-04 requires interim and annual disclosure of both (1) the amount of foreclosed residential real estate property held by the creditor and (2) the recorded investment in consumer mortgage loans collateralized by residential real estate property that are in the process of foreclosure according to local requirements of the applicable jurisdiction. ASU No. 2014-04 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014. The adoption of ASU No. 2014-04 is not expected to have a material impact on the Bank’s consolidated financial statements.
